Councilman Wood's Ilttlo hatchet , which
ho wielded in the city council Monday night ,
brought down the dead rlpo fruit more
promptly than had been anticipated. In loss
than nn hour after the council adjourned
George Dcavers and an even dozen of his
patrons were behind the bars charged with
gambling.
Immediately on the adjournment of the
city council Acting Mayor Walters In
structed Chief Bremiiin to pull the
gambling house of Oeorgo Deavcrs ,
over Wordeman's saloon , at the
corner of Twenty-fifth and N. Officers
Tangcman , Emmlnger and SK | > ctler were de
tailed and together with the chief made the
raid , capturing the players without the loss
'of n man. They gave their names as George
Graves , Frank Karson , George Braslleld , D.
Haymnnd , George Deavers , William Nice ,
William Woods , John Harris , Bert Older ,
Jack Smith , I. . . D. Uoyd , S. A. Sax by and
Jim Coon.
By ! iU : ! ! o'clock n. m , the headquarters for
the llrst time since South Omaha began busi
ness as a municipality was fitted up with a
complete outfit of gambling paraphernalia.
Piled up In ono corner wcro two crap tables ,
ono hn/ard , two roulette , ono faro bank ,
while in the property room reposed ! i,000
chips and numerous decks of cards.
Mr. Dcavers , the protirietor , promptly
went bail for six of the captured gamblers ,
putting up $ 'iO each for their appearance at 'J
p. m. yesterday and $ ) for himself , and the
.seven men walked out in the free air of
heaven with a cloud hanging'ovor them.
The other six prlsonois , being strangers to
Dcavers. he was not willing to gamble on
their showing up at the proper time and
place , and they wcro locked up. Judge
Fowler gave thorn a show this morning , and
all were released , either on their own recognizance -
cognizance or were vouched for by friends ,
to appear at - t ) . m. for a hearing.
It is strange hou- Innocent those men
proved to be when questioned by the
Judge , with a view to allowing them to
give security for tbcir appearance. Ono
was a single man who worked at packing
houses and on grades and never gambled a
lick in his life. No. 'J was a single man ,
working at Swift's , a mere spectator whenever
never gambled. Xo. : t was a painter who had
painted the tables and was there on a col
lecting tour. The next lived in Omaha , but
never gambled a little hit in his life , and the
man next to him lived in South Omaha and
was n grader employed by Jim Mann.
The sixth ono was out of luck. He was
a stranger from Missouri Valley , and appar
ently had not a friend on earth , but Attor
ney Montgomery finally secured his release
until the hour of trial.
I'ublic opinion : ts to the motives of the
mayor will bo largely formed from future
actions , as there are a number of other
gambling places in the city equally notorious
and run equally open with the one pulled
last niuht.
Dick Berlin's place , near Twenty-fourth
and X , is probably the best known of any
place in the city , yet it vns dark Monday
night , as were otheis well known to both
police and citizens. It is common talk that
the tip was given to all but Dcavers that
night in time to escape the officers.
The raid is the omy topic of conversa
tion on the streets. Mayor WaltersC ac-
tlon has been interpreted at least 1,000
different ways by this time. There are
tlioso who say that the acting mayor is
In earnest , and means fo execute the
laws as they exist , and there arc many
others who openly charge that some ono
is getting a rake-off from all the other
gambling houses in the city , and that
Dcavers was only ordered pulled to'
make a shoiv of enforcing the law ,
choosing the latter place because its proprie
tor has refused or failed to whack up with
a liberality equal to others , . This view is
confirmed in the minds of some by the fact
that , as they say , the gamblers some time
ago made the proposition to pay a line of 75
n month for the assurance of immunity from
police interference , but no attempt has been
made to license them.
Outside of the gambling episode , which
came on so suddenly Monday night , Mayor
Walters is the subject of much adverse criti
cism. About two weeks ago ono John l-'o-
gnrty answered In police court to being an
inmate of a htmso of prostitution. In fact , ho
was credited with being a "professor" regu
larly attached to a Railroad avenue dive. Ho
got off easily , but was warned to bo careful of
the second offense. Monday ho was again
before the Judge with the sumo charge op
posite his name , when ho got ? 10 and costs.
Yesterday morning Judge Fowler received
the following letter :
Soi'TH O.MAIIA , Neb. , Fob. 20. Hon. J. M.
Fowler , Police Judge South Omaha. Neb. :
Dear Sir By the power Invested in me as
mayor of South Oinuha , I hereby remit the
line of ono John Fogarty , and demand his
release. Yours respectfully ,
J. S. W AI.TKHS , Mayor.
John Staplcton , arrested on the lOth of
February for the same offense , was released
by Mayor Walters without a hearing. On
the other hand , the acting mayor charges
Councilman Wood with creating n sensation1
for political purposes in order to secure his
re-election to the council.
The gamblers had a now deal when 2
o'clock came round , seven being discharged
and six held until Thursday for prosecution
under the state laws. Assistant County At
torney Troup drew up the papers.

CLERICAL CONVENTION.S
Ciitftiillc I'rli'stH Will .licet In Chicago In
Father P. .T. McCarthy , pastor of St. Phil-
omcna Catholic church of tins city , is taking
aa active part in calling the Catholic priests
of the country to moot in a clerical conven
tion in Chicago next May at the time of the
Catholic congress. The plan was first sug
gested a few months ago at a meeting of
priests in Iowa , and it has proven a popular
idea.
' The intention is , " said Father McCarthy
to a Bur. reporter , "to 'have a gathering of
American priests in which wo shall all fool
free to say what we like upon matters of in
terest in our work. This , you know , is an
age when people of every class and condition
gut together and confer upon subjects of
mutual interest. Other people Had it ntlvun-
tagieus to hold such meetings , and it is rea
sonable to suppose that the priests of our
church will also bo bcaellted by such a
meeting. "
Speaking of the efforts that will bo made to
agree upon an oftlcial residence for Mgr. Sa-
tolll , Father McCarthy said it might bo possi
ble that a strong effort would be put forth to
bring the oftlcial residence as far west as
Chicago , but as yet it would bo impossible
to say what the prevailing sentiment on that
subject would bo. Ho regarded the vigorous
and prompt action of the apostolic delegate
in settling disputed Questions in America as
of great bcucllt to the church.
The fact that the pope is so far away
and that it takes so long to got a disputed
question through the labyrinth of official
tape has had a tendency to prolong and ag
gravate sonic of the vexatious situations in
this country , which I think would have been
avoided if the , parties involved had realized
that they could not maintain their position
very long. Now that it Is an easy matter to
got a final decision upon all disputed points
promptly , I think there will not bo so much
inclination to quibble over small things , and
where there is reasonable ground for com
plaint or disagreement the parties interested
will not have long to wait until they arc sot
right. "

When in 18T8 William Hooney , just prior
to his death , which occurred In Strati-
racr. Scotland , called hl.t brother. .lames ,
now a resident of this city and aa
employe of the street railway company , to
his bcdsldo , the thought , perhaps , never
occurred to him that his legacies would
ci.uso the latter no end of
trouble. Ho never dreamed that
they would ruin his brother financially and
J
,
cause an exchange of communications be
tween two different governments In order to
ts
settle difficulties arising between brothers
and sisters of the deceased.
The Hoonoy family wcro sons and daugh
ters of Erin , but William , it seems , had for
saken Ireland and found a homo in bennie
Scotland , where ho amassed a for
tune. Being averse to paying the sub
jugators of his country a portion of his
wealth , which the union government would
proceed to collect at his death under the
legacy and succession duty act , ho author
ised his brother .lames to draw from certain
depositories the sum of SIO.OOO , and dis
tribute this sum equally among the three
remaining brothers , ono of whom , Patrick ,
is now ami has been for tome time a resident
of Nebraska's metropolis. Aside from those
four were two sisters , who , according to
William's will , were to have e'lual
shares which the landed estate would bring
over and above the sum of $10,000.
Slxterw ( iot r.cft.
The land was valued at 15.000. James
claims to have carried out to the letter the
instructions of his dead brother , and boforc
final settlement of the cstato to have ad
vanced to a married sister in Ireland and
another one in this country iji ! > 0 each , as a
loan to bo repaid as soon as the bcipieathcd
property was rcall/.cd on. Up to this tlmo
the sisters remained in total Ignorance , if
their version is correct , of the $10,000 divided
by .lames , anil when later on the realty was
sold and brought $10,000 , thus depriving
the weaker sex of any share whatever ,
the married sister , jvho is still an inhabitant
of the Green Isle , waxed exceedingly wrathy
when sfio gained information as to how the
first mentioned sum was disposed of and
appealed to the courts in Scotland for
redress and an equal share , alleging that
James was a deceiver.
The British government also stopped in
and announced its intention of prosecuting
liim'Utider the legacy duty law. By advice
of his counsel , and , not wishing
to antagonize a powerful govern
ment , ho satisfied the demands of the latter
in this respect. But "out of the frying
pan into the lire" is an old saying , which held
good In tills case , The payment of the gov-
ernin cut tax was an admission that such an
amount was left by William Hooney , and
Scottish courts Decreed that James , in the
sister's suit , was Indebted in the sum of
$10,000. This Judgment was transcripted to
Ireland where the llrst
, mentioned owned a
reluablc farm.
Sought Itcst In America.
The latter was sold on execution , and
James Hooney , with only $12.in his
pocket , came to the conclusion that it
would perhaps bo bolter for him to seek anew
now country and establish a now
homo. Accordingly , ho loft the country
of his bitter experience , and about a'year
ago set his foot on the soil of free land ,
where ho hoped to bo unmolested from all
future persecution as ho considered it. Such
did not prove to bo the case however , as the
police here , several weeks ago , were re
quested by the Dublin authorities to give In
formation , If James liponoy was in Omaha.
They wcro also apprised that the charge of
embezzlement was' pending there against
this individual and that extradition papers
would bo asked for in Washington.
The answer was returned that
ho was a resident hero ana
could be arrested any time the police of the
capital city of Ireland desired. Itoonoy's
dream of future rest from further molesta
tion was therefore dispelled and again ho
had to apply to a counselor-at-law for pro
tection. T. J. Mahoney was applied to and
ho immediately sent a request tp Washing
ton that before extradition papers wore
issued ho would like to bo heard on behalf
of his client.
Insufficient time since then has elapsed
to have heard anything more , and James
Hooney is kept in suspense in the meantime.

In the case of Freil Hoyor against Gustavo
Co&scman , which has been oh trial In Judge
Davis' court for nearly a week , the Jury yes
terday returned a verdict , Hading for the
plaintiff and assessing his damages at
J.r > 00 , Just one-half of the amount for which
no sued. Tito lawsuit was the outgrowth of
a long fought and hitter family war , where ,
for a number of years , guns , nsts , clubs and
brickbats have played many star engage
ments. Both of the men live on the north
bottoms , in the vicinity of Florence , where
Cesseman , during the summer season , oper
ates an infirmary for the dispensing of a
curative for saako bites and Hcyer looks
after a truck garden. The places are not
far apart and whenever Ccssoman's hens
have dug up Ileyor's garden seeds there has
been a row.
This Httio garden patch has upon- numer
ous occasions boon the cause of bloodshed ,
but never until now did the trials and the
tribulations of the two men become the 'sub
ject of judicial investigation. As long ago as
1S)1 ! ) the fight started , and , as the story goes ,
one summer day Cesseman was driving homo
from the city. The road led around Ileyor's
truck garden , but there was a shorter route
by driving over the potatoes and turnips.
Cesseman was the larger man an.l ho took
the short cut. Ho was about half through
the garden when , gut. in hand , Hoycr rushed
out and commanded the neighbor to retrace
his steps. Cesseman said that ho would bo
blanked if ho would over turn his back to
one of the Huyors , and then the fun com
menced , There was-but ono round , and that
ono laid Mr. Hcyer low. " He looked as
though ho had eomo in contact with the busi
ness end of a threshing machine. The up
shot of the whole.matter was that he went
to bed and stayed there for nearly two
years.
In making up the findings , the jury took
all of the results of the fight Into considera
tion and assessed the damages accordingly.

"I havehndiaJlong experience in the
treatment of Kidney Jisc < ises with
LOXDOXDK'RRY * and am pleased
to add my testimonial , although I
think it unnecessary , from the fact
that the effects of the water speak
more eloquently than any words
which I might utter. I prize it very
highly in all cases of Chronic Rheuma
tism or other manifestations of the con
dition known sis the 'Lithic Acid
Diathesis. ' I have us ill the water ex
tensively in my practice , and intend to
continue the use of it. "

lli'pnrU from Scvj-nil Muli-n on the Trout-lit
Outlook for tin' Crop.
CHICAGO , 111. , Feb. 'JI. The Farmers Hc
vlow tomorrow will s.iy : Hoports on the
winter wheat show that In most of the
states ( a critical point has burn readied , and
on the next few weeks will depend the future
of the crop.
In Missouri a few of the correspondents
report wheat in Rood condition , more report
fair , and many report the condition as bad
or doubtful.
In Kansas and Nebraska the pcncral out
look scorns lo bo Rood , but there Is so much
uncertainty about it that It will require a
few tla.vs of warm weather to reveal its true
condition.
In Iowa the Holds are still covered with
snow to such a depth that it is believed the
crop is yet safe , but the Hanger will come
when the snow ijocs off. The same is trno
in portions of Minnesota.

"Only tJiis and notJihiff
inoi'd. " There is this to be said
about Johann Hoff's Malt Ex
tract that those who have once
taken it discard all others. This
is clearly indicated by the rapid
increase in its sales. When pa
tients everywhere have once
adopted Johcinn Hoff's Malt Ex
tract the difference between it
and inferior extracts usually sold
as " Hoff's Extract" is so mani
festly apparent that they will not
bear even the mention of any
other. And the reason is that it
is not only more grateful to the
palate , but its action is imme
diate and its results permanent.
Johann Hoff's Malt Extract for
the space of nearly half a cen
tury has been a blessing to myr
iads of sufferers from dyspepsia ,
sleeplessness and general debility.
Had it not been so , it would have
been a " dead letter" ere now.
Beware of imitations. The gen
uine must have the signature of
"Johann Hoff" on the neck of
every bottle. Eisner & Mcndel-
