Clothing , shoes , Jew- dry , cutlery , cigars and firearms were thrown in indiscriminately , both valises being filled from cover to cover.

Tlie officials nt om-e jumped at thecomlusion that Worden was the guilty party , and when he was accused with the burglaries he dropped his air of in jured inno.vnce and owned up that he was guilty in s-ever.il of the cases , while circum stantial evidence is very strong against him in .all the others Spetmau identified four suits of clothes , a lot of underwear , some .shirts aud two valises as having come from his store. Marcus identified an overcoat , a pair of shoes and some more of the underwear as what was stolen him. Peterson .t Schoeuing identified a revolver and a lot of cartridges. Worden admitted having broken into Spet- man's Marcus' , Brown's and Sullnan's places , and showed a couple of boxes of cigars that he had taken from the latter store. Tlie men who worked with Worden say that he had some cakes on one or two oc casions , which are now supposed to have been taken from the Women's Christian i association stand in Taylor's store. Tlie bicycle is identified by S. M. Williamson as the one which was stolen from his place a i few nlfhts ago. but Worden said to one of his fellow workmen when he got it that it had been sent to him from his mother , who lives at Arcadia. > "eb. llrVat 11 Drtct'tli * * .

He pointed out to a fellow workman a morn ing or two ago. a mouse lying on the floor about twenty feet from his bed , whiihhad bothered him during the nteht. The body of the little animal lay w ith a bullet hole through it , Worden having shot him from his bed during tbe uis-'ht.

ELIXIR OF LIFE. Dr. Cninc Talk * on theplrilna1. . nnil Not the 1'hji.lral l.lffUttlii : ; Oualltj. Dr. Frank Crane delivered an instructive , and at the same time hichly interesting sermou on "Browncquard , " taking the famous French physician's elixir as a basis for i his talk In his discourse Dr Crane j synononiously applied the truths of i physical research to the spiritual ailments I of not n few of the latter day so-called I Christians ' , holdlnjj up their shortcomings j I inalicht i new to many. The sermon was i listened ) to n > a fair sized audience , and on , . the diagnosis of spiritual diseases , the pas- j lor , drew a worn picture worthy of note. I Beeinniuc his discourse with the supposed j discovery ( of the S'riup ' of eternal j outh by I Ponce . de Leon. Dr. Crane reviewed Faust's compact with the devil to prolonc life , and. arriving at the more recent key to per ; > etual younpness alleged to have been found by BrovvntNiuard. . the question resolved itself into three tords. "What is Life' " ' "Life. " continued the speaker , "is a mys tery insoluble We are no nearer the solu- tinn of life than we were J.OJOyearsatro. Life , j from a physical sUum point , is better with i the man who is full of it. Life itself , in its fullest and truest sense is the only thing that can cure disiMse. This is equally true of spiritual diseases , and I think that what Christ meant when he said he shed his blood for ui was that he pave his life for us. The blood of Christ represents life in us in pro- jiortion as we have it to cure our relitrious disorders A man with plcnt. % of life is not subject to disease- , neither is a man filled with the life of Christ in dancer of religious dif-ordeis , the spiritual life kiilinuthe perms. "As 1 consider these things 1 seesi to fall , into a dream. 1 find melf , in the oxperi- 1 tncnting room of the University of Psjchic i U"sean-h. where all psychical disorders are , treated. As I sit some one touches my l shoulder , aud 1 am taken to the operatinp I no.Ti. Here stands the o ] > eratiii ! ; table , and i us I pa c UJKIII it a laau is broupht in. He ! 1 strusrples with hi attendants and tries to i pet away. I inquire what is the matter i with him , and my instructor informs me ' that the man suffers from a peculiar sort of j cancer called Pecuniary cancer. I am told he suffers aponies with it. It prows , upon his breast and the pain is so great that he walks the floor all nieht lonp. But the odd thing about it my informant tells me is that the man is proud of it. He seems to prize it. Whenever he has an oppor tunity he takes a fneud aside and bares his breast and shows it to him. He has lost his wife and sacrificed his daughters to this eat- iiip thine He is held up as a im > del , I am. informed , to school boys and they are told that someday they maybe like him. He was about to inoculate his son. The attend ants oven > o er him and the lluid from a small hM > odennic s.ririgo is forced into his arm. Suddenly the cancer breaks the | pent-up pathcrinp flo s and he is made whole. The swelling disappears an > t over ' the patient's face comes a new lipht and a new look of intelligence pleams from his eyes. " Dr. Crane , continuing in the same strain , referred to the agnostic the man who boli'-ves nothing , yet would have one infer he knows everything. "This man. when brought in. was suffering from an aggravated case of big head his head was as large as a bucnet. An injection and his head is reduted to its uoraial size "Still another man was brought in. He walked on crutches. One of his feet was shriveled up. 'That , ' said iny comuanion , 'is his prayer meeting foot. He is said on earth to be a good Christian , but he has only one foot when he goes to church. The peculiar- itj of his disease , ' continued the instructor , 'is that \vimn he goes anywhere else the foot becomes instantly well. ' The hyi > odermic treatment was given him and he arises , throws awaj his crutches and walks out , well aud whole. " The speaker then told of the man who. six da.\sa week , was in good hoaith , jet on Sunday he gave 'way to the slightest indis position and took to his bed. home ] > cople call it Sunday sickness. And so the rev erend gentleman went on through the entire category of religious delinquents the ma'n who suffered witn an affection of the knees , who couldn't kneel ; the man who could shout at a political meeting , jet could not talk in even a whisper in church : tbe two- sided individual , who showed his coed side on earth yet who in the eyes of God re sembled a paralytic , and others. "They were all treated alike , and as the last arose to leave I turned ana asked , 'What is this wonderful elixir ? ' ' -It is' and I was treated as we are often treated in dreams 1 awoke.

One of the startllnc features of the evi dence , it is said , will be the account of the attempted destruction of the Schufeklt dis tillery in isy. It was the intention of those plamnntr the destruction of the distilljry to have two bombs thrown throuch a plass sky light of the room which contained 1,140 Uar- rels of high wine.

Of the two men who had sneaked atom ; on the early dawn to wreck the Schuft-ldt buildin&r. & one was a hisrh oBicial of a rival concern and the other wu . u trusted eiuploje who had been hired to do the actual throwinp. At the last moment the enormity of the crime caused him to lose his nerve and his chief was obliced to hurl the deadly missiles.

"A Parlor Match" nt thp Uo3'i It came near being a case of standing room only at the Boyd List night , which seems to be a fair indication of the popularity of that longest lived of farce variety shows , "A Parlor Match " The groand work of nine years ape is there yet. tjut it is embroidered with a wealth of ne v gaps" and entertain- ine specialties bj clever people. h\ans and Hoey are as funnv as ever , and they have gathered about them perhaps the strongest company now traveling in that class of entertainment. It nuiabcrs twentj persons. 'and there is not one who fail = , to do a spe- eialty. "A P.irlor Match" renews its \puth perernially , and the j > re > ent edition is as bright , spirited and entertaining a farcical performance as the season has yet jiroduced. "My Jack" nt the Tarna ui. ' My Jack , " which opened a week's en gagement at the Farnam Street theater jesterday. is certainly what it was an nounced to be. a powerful realistic play. It is one of .the best dramas seen in Omaha this season , and Walter Sanford's production of it , as presented here , is entirely worthy of the work. The author. Benjamin Lindeck. has combined inauj of the peed old elements of dramatic story , but the composition has been made with much ingenuity , admirable deference to the probabilities and a capital sense of striking incident. It is not fuultless the scene on shipboard is ridiculous hut it is much superior to the penenil run of "realistic" dramas ; indeed , the action's cli max , which brings the hero and the agent of villauy together alone nmid the wild , wan wastes of Sahara , is a triumph in evcrj re spect , impressively effective to a degree The scenery is * cry line. The opening -ene. . showing Falinouth town und bax. and ED ex panse of bl-jc Lnelish ihannel. is a tine bit of work ; the garden scenes are prett.pu tures and the desert scene expresses a tine sense of the reality. The dozen scenes sno-.vu were painted bv the late Matt Morgan , and the jilaj is worth seeiuc for them alone. Noth ing finer in "realistic' ' worK has ever been seen in Omaha than the sinking smack , the rescuing doiy , the tumbling sea. the top- plinir lighthouse , all in the one quick , strong scene that ends the first act. The company has its weaknesses , but alto gether is highly successful in its work. Mr. P. Augustus Anderson plays the leading character part , a Greek vagabond. He is picturesque , finely repressed and never fails to be effective , his death scene in the desert displaying an art of especial excellence The hero's presentation is in the care of Mr. William Stafford , who fulfills a * its demands fairly well. Mr. Charles Frew as an Irish boatswain has most of the comedy work of the drama to do and he does it well. A very notable performance is that of Miss Lillian Brainard as Mrs. Preseott , who is blind : she speaks her speeches with a fine sym pathy , her delivery of the battlefield deM-rip- tion in the first act being almost perfect The other parts in the cast are filled with varying degrees of success , and all in the verdict on "My Jack" must be recorded as a strong"comedy-draina , particularly well staged and commendably plaxed.
