souKlil the commlltoo. '
Ho tnndo the roquo l that the time on the
contract bo cxtonucd twclvo hours longer , or
until mldninht tonlRht , This the committee
failed to do , to the evident discomfort and
dltploiisuro ot Melbourne and his man Jones ,
.But Melbourne nrmly Kept his watoh In the

largely nharcd by the citizens.
Why Mvlhnitrnn I'litlrd.
Mr. Jones was accosted by Tun Dm : re

Melbourne failed , nssuinltif : that there were
reasons why ho should fair any moro than

"Thcro uro certain conditions in the atmosphere -

From the toner of the whole conversation
Tin : UIR correspondent is led to conclude

TALKING TO THE TIACHERS.
1'ruf. HlgKHhy at Di-ll-dlt and Truf. I'ltz-
IHitrlok llollvor I.oiituroH.
Prof. Blgcaby ot Detroit lectured yester
day afternoon before tlio toauhers of Douglas
county. His subject was "Hugby and Ar
nold. " Ho said ho would take a hurried trip
to Kngland and invlto the teachers ot the in-
slituto to accompany him. The objective
point of tbo Journey was Winchester , "whnro
the soil Is rich in history. " A city of relics
all overgrown with Ivy.
"Hero wo lind cathedrals , " said Prof.
Biegsby , "that are , in the words of Uuskin ,
epic poems , ' in thu language of Longfellow ,
'dreams In stone , ' and when General Grant
saw the grandest structure \Yincacstor be
said , 'That Is frozen music. ' "
Prof. Blggsby dosnrlood the Interesting old
city in detail , dwelling particularly upon old
Huuby college. His description ot tbo little
lords during their first few days experience
In Hugby was particularly happy and captl-
vallug. ' He spoke of the Knglish Dago boy ,
"who seemed to have burst into an eruption
ot buttons from head to foot , " and made
some ludicrously sarcastic remarks about the
custom of keeping pngo boys. His picture of
the old Uugby garden and the schoolmaster's
house was graphic and elegant. Ono could
almost catch tlio odor of the roses anil sea
the ivy th.it fairly smothered the house. 700
years old. Ho pictured the interior of ibo
master's house and sketched Ur. Somerville ,
the master.
Koforrinc to tbo practice of rich Ameri
cans sending their sons to Uugoy and other
English scDooU , Prof. Bigcsby said : ' -TUoso
rich Americans send their sons to these old
schools , not because they can secure bolter
educational advantages there , but because
they can say that their little nopefuls are at
school with my lords Topnoddy and Hlgli-
riaer and others of their class. "
Prof. Biggsby was nine years a { , Uugby
ami bo nppOiirs to know whereof he speaks.
Such a thing as appearing at recitation with
out having the lesson Is sure to bring asharp
rebuke and the student Is riven what is
Known as nu "imposition , " that is , ho has to
write ever many times the lines and words
ho failed to recite perfectly.
The teachers were completely convulsed
by tba recital of a scene at Ruggbv In
which Prof. Blggsby and tbo late General
Gordon ot the English army played loading
parts. They bad boon shut up In an old
library room as a punishment. Other boys
bud been coming to the koybolo and calling
all sorts of taunting things ut the prisouors.
Finally young Gordon got bold of a syringe
and waited patiently to nil the next eye or
oa'r with Ink that came up to the keyhole.
Presently tbero came a stop ncrocs the
hall and thoa an car was pressed
tc the koyholo. In an Instantyoung Gordon
thrust the syringe into tbo koybolo and lot
drlvo with all bis might. There was a great
shriek on the outside und the little prisotiori
fairly howled with delight. But their Joy
wus short lived. Presently n key was thrust
into the door and an instunt later In stopped
tba bead master , his baud and tbo collar of
bis shirt completely covered with Ink. The
young prisoners wcra soundly thrashed for
ihclr work with the syringe.
In closing Prof. Biggsby contrasted the
Ufa und work of Thomas Arnold ,
while headmaster at Hugby , with the
character and work of thosu who
preceded him. Arnold broke up tbo
old cast Iron rules und tbo Inhuman treat
ment ot the boys and cndcarod himself to
tbo hearts of the whole school , excepting the
other musters , who wore Jealous of his
popularity. Prof. Blggsby eulogized Mr.
Arnold In eloquent terms.
Superintendent Fltzpatrlck nddroscd the
eachers during the lorcuoon. His address
was upon the hundred and ono small things
thalbecumo a part of Unsuccessful teachers'
experience. The touchers were very highly

In this parllculnr Instance there are eight

data.
data.Thoro
There Is nothing to show that In thli
case the transaction was not straight.
thoiiRh It brines to llcht the fact
that \V. E. B. Plorco , while ho resided In
Omaha , stood as a straw man for parlies who
had worthless property which they wore
anxious to workott upon unsuspecting spocti-
latori.
I'lcrco came from Plorro , S. D. , some flvo
years ugo , making the trip on a llatnuat.
For some months after his arrival , with his
family , ho lived In a gnrrot near Twentieth
and Urnco streets , whcra frequently ho did
not even have bread to oat. Later on in his
career ho moved into bettor quarters and
put In some of his time at the
curnontor's trade. But last fall bo again
took to the river and started forNowOrloans
on a llatboat.
Regarding 1'lorco's standing as a straw
man for * real estate dealers , the facU
and the plans by which bo
operated wore those. For Instance Jobti
Smith owned n lot in some outlying addition.
It was poor property and In the market
would not , sell for moro than $500. Smith
would see Pierce and the next thing that
huuponod thcro would bo n deed recorded
showlnc that Plerco had bought
the lot for $ J,000 paid half
cash and had given a mortgage for $1,500 ,
Uuo in Hvo \ cars. Plcrco would got all the
way from $ lu to $33 , wbilo Smith would sell
his notes and mortgage at n slight discount ,
receiving In ninny cases from two to three
times na much as tbo lots which wera
covered by the mortgatro worn worth.
Not having any property of his own Plorco
had no hcsiluncy In executing the mortgages
and the notes for such amounts as his prin
cipals saw lit to ask. Not only dirt he act
in this capacity for one , but
there nro today in Omaha a dozen
or moro real oslnlo ngonts who used W. E.
B. Pierce for a straw man. In this capacity
ho continued to labor until about the time
some of the notes were due , and thonhe
quietly slid down the rlvor.
And now Thomas Murray has brought suit
against the Crauo Bros. Manufacturing
company and in bis petition ho avers that
ho Is entitled to recover 51,3(17.53 ( , with in
terest since 1.8S8. During that year ho al
leges that ho was constructing a hotel in the
city of Omaha , and that no purchased
plumbing and other material from the de
fendants amounting to K,493.0S. This sum
ho paid and now ho has learned that the
$1,807.53 was an overcharge which ho should
not have paid.
Thomas Broun tin has sued Thomas Murray.
Ho alleges that tbo sum of $ C > G8.54 remains
due upon a promissory note executed four
years ago.
Timothy J. Phelps asks to bo divorced
from his wife , Margaret. Ho allcgns that
Margaret , without Just cause or provocation ,
lias loft his boil and board.
Ulara Williams proposes to convince the
court that stio has boon cheated and De
frauded by Fred King and Joseph 1' . " Mail-
ondcr. To prcvo this she has illod her
petition which states that on February 1 ,
1S1U , she was the owner of a lot in faouth
Omaha. About that tlmo , she avers that the
defendants conspired to defraud hor. They
roprpscutod that Kln was the owner In foe
simple of ( JIO acres of land In Presidio
county , Texas , which bo would trudo for
the South Omaha lot. Buliovinc thcso rep
resentations she made the trade , to learn
later that ho never owned any land in Texas.
Now she Icels tbatsho should recover $ l'J80 ,
which she alleges Is the value of tlio prop
erty she tracleu a way.
