The famous Modjcska and her company ot
dramatic artists arrived yesterday and took
quarters at the Millard. Tlio great tragedi
enne is a most agreeable and accomplished
conversationalist. During a brlnf interview
today with a Ur.n reporter she took occasion
to express her disapproval of the present
starring system by which the theatrical
business of the country is carried on.
"If this pernicious starring business is not
done away with , " said Mine. Modjoska , "It
will he the ruin of tlio dramatio art in this
country Anybody can bo a star now. Pri/o
fighters , dlvorred women , professional burg
lars , anyliody with a reputation for anything
unusual can rush upon the stage and get
press notices by the yard. It is simply n
light between managers as to which
shall make the most money without
the least consideration as to whether
the people are going to get their money's
worth or not. The business ought to be re
turned to the old stock company plan. Ket
each city depend for Its art upon the artists
that belong to It. "
"Hut would not this pian cheat the smaller
towns out of the opportunity to see really
great artists in the dramatic line ? "
"Not at all. Good artists would remove to
the smaller cities if they knew that they
could depend upon the patronage of the
people there. With the present miserable
system the people do not know what
tliov are getting. You see so much in the
papers about this one and that one , and they
are nil paraded befoic the public as being of
the highest possible merit. The public taste
really becomes somewhat uncertain as to
that which is really good. I uould like to
see more attention paid to the clo\ation of
the art and not so much to the money making
side of the profession. "

Colony That Will ItiUno Sucur Hccts for
O\imrd'H 1'iu'tory.
Among the guests at the Millard yesterday
was Mr. J. W. Vanderhoogt , who represents
the Holland-American I-and and Emigration
company , which has been organized across
the water for the purpose of locating a largo
colony of Hollanders in the United States.
The ideas of the company are of importance
to Nobraskaus , inasmuch as they relate to a
considerable extent to ; in industry which is
rapidly assuming mammoth proportions In
this state.
When asked for Information as to the pur
poses of the company , Mr. Vanderhoogt said
that the circumstances which induced this
movement were virtually the same as those
of all colonization plans. That section of
Holland In which the company was organ
ized was thickly settled with people of mod
erate means or none at all. The lands upon
which they were dependent were worn out
and only made productive by the application
of largo quantities of fertilizers. The high
rent charged for tin so lands and the added
cost of the fertilisers made too great n bur
den for these poor but industrious people.
"Wo have no dilllculty , " continued Mr.
Vanderhoogt , "In securing a largo number of
good families , of industrious and frugal
habits , who are ready to coma to the United
States , whore they can have butter land at
more moderate prices and which docs not
require the usO of fertili/ers. Within a few
days I will bo in Now York to receive the
first of our colonists. Wo expect about 200
families to arrive on the steamer within a
week. Another steamer will bring us as
many more , and' the number will bo increased
each year as our preparations are completed
to receive them and care for them properly.
"Our land Is located at Crook , Ix > gan
county , Just on the southern borders of No-
brasKa. Wo have secured there over : < 0OUO ,
acres of as line agricultural land as any
farmer could ask for , which is suitable for
wising all kinds of crops. Wo expect to
have to depend on irrigation for our crops
and have already constructed our canals and
trenches for irrigating a largo portion of our
land. Our water supply is ample , and wo
can turn on the water almost any day. By
this means we have secured in advance al
most absolute certainty of our crops , as wo
can regulate the water-supply with perfect
accuracy.
"Wo have decided to make sugar beets
ono of our standard crops , and if the present
bounty to the farmers for raising sugar beets
is continued it is probable that wo shall
make It our leading Industry. Our people
nro probably better acquainted with beet
culture than almost any other class of
farmers , and when I Informed them by cable
to the president of our company that I had
Just closed a contract for raising Ji.OOO acres
of sugar beets they were overjoyed. They
know that from this industry a large In
come per acre must uo obtained , and they
feel that though they are coming'to a now
country , they are not destined to embark In
a new business.
"Wo have had an examination made by a
competent expert of our soil , climate and
irrigation system , and after this report had
been received every possible doubt was re
moved from our minds as to the adaptability
of uur land for sugar beet culture. You
must remember that our lands are contig
uous to the lands of Nebraska , and have thu
same general character. Wo have a de
lightful sunny climate , which favors tlio pro
duction of beets containing the greatest
amount of saccharine matter.
"There Is at present no factory for tlio
manufacture of beet sugar In Colorado , and
wo have make a contract with the Oxnard
company ot Grand Island to handle our pro
duct. We shall ship all our beets this year
and next into your state , nnd-ultimately I
liopo wo shall have not only one , hut many
factories , for tlio people of Colorado are
thoroughly aroused to the importance of
this industry , and are determined to make
Colorado a great sugar state.
NIJW MEXICO LAW MAKING.
\Vlicro I'roverilliiRH Are Carried on InSpnii
lull and Kiigllsli.
Hon. Hen S. Baker , United States district
attorney , returned yesterday from n six
weeks trip to Now Mexico , California and
Oregon. Mrs. Baker remained in California
and will not return until May. Speaking of
his trip , Mr. Baker said :
"One of the most Interesting things I saw
while away was In the old town of Santa Fo.
The territorial legislature was In session ,
and it is a remarkable sight to an American
to watch the proceedings. I visited the
lower house , which they call the assembly ,
and took In their way of doing business. The
majority of the members could not. speak or
understand the KnglUh language , so it be
came necessary to have the speeches , and
all thu proceedings in fact , translated by an
Interpreter cither from Kngllsh to Spanish
or from Sp.inlsh to Kngllsli , as the ease de
manded. The Interpreter was a hummer.
"Tlio moment a man boblo I up to speak the
Interpreter took his position by his side and
reproduced tlio speech , gestures ami all , in
the language that the speaker and sontn
members of the house did not understand.
The peculiar feature of the business was
that the interpreter did not wait for the
njH'aker to finish a sentence before trans
lating it , but kept Just a few words behind
him and llnl.Hhud almost as soon. Tim Inter-

SWIFT THEY WERE.
Hut Not Smooth iiu : > iil | > for the Police
Authorities.
The Swift brothers , who have several
times been called to account by the local
authorities for burglaries of various dimen
sions , were released from the Om ilia Jail
yesterday afternoon on their promise to get
out of town and stay away for at least sev
eral years to come. They were very much
gratified at such unexpected leniency , but
their pleasure was short lived , and now they
are kicking the bars of n Council Bluffs cell
and cursing the rather hollow benevolence
of the Omaha police.
They were arrested in Council Bluffs and
turned over to the Omaha authorities on a
churgo of grand larceny , but the most that
could bo proven against them hero was
petit larceny. In the meantime It developed
that they had helped to burglarl/o a clothing
store in Shenandoah , la , last November ,
where they got away with nearly $ oOO worth
of tailor made clothing. The property was
learlj all disposed of in Council liluffs , and
the police had a cinch on the thieves if they
could get them back again.
Chief Scannell was in Omaha yesterday
ind made arrangements with the local
) ollco that the two men were to bo rall-
. oaded across the river , where ho had men
stationed to nab them as soon as they
crossed the bridge. This program was car
ried out , and uhcn the criminals thought
tkoy were going to breathe free air they
were simply walking into the clutches of the
Iowa authorities , and relieving Chief Kcan-
lell of the trouble of obtaining requisition
[ tapers.

Chief of Detectives Haze is getting requisi

[ tasscd several forged checks on Max Meyer
some time ago. Blanding was arrested at
Council Bluffs , but when it was found that
no was also wanted at Avoca , la. , the Coun
cil Bluffs police refused to turn him over to
the Omaha authorities. The grand Jury at
Avoca has returned an indictment against
the prisoner , but it is said that the case
j gainst him is not strong , and Detective
ix.o will maku another effort to bring him
back to this city.
Burglars paid a visit to the store of S.

Wednesday night and carried off $ 'Jl worth

It is pleasant to record tlio fact that
ono thing about the now city hall equip
ment is complete. Yesterday the last of
the magnlllcont electric light tfxtures
wore put in by Russell , Pratt & Co.
They wore manufactured from special
designs by Russell , Pratt & Co. for the
rotunda and courts. They uro of wrought
iron , hand inudo and Bower-Barff fin
ished. They uro handsome and symot-
rical , and huvo n style of rugged beauty
that harmonizes with the surroundings.
Tlio pillar lights at the foot of the broad
staircase are of solid bronze , the design
being also original. Perhaps the best
comment that can bo made on these fix
tures is to say that they are up to tlio
standard of excellence which the public
lui-j learned to expect of Russell , Pratt
& Co.

General Manager Dickinson and several
chlofsof ilcpirtmciits of the Union I'.tclllo
learned ycstcr.l.iy through the grloviinco
coininlttoo of the Switchman's Mutual Alii
association or the Union Pnclllc system what
It w.is the man in Uonror and other big
yar.ls wanted at the hands ot tholr em-
] > lnycrs.
George G. F.irmcr of this city , ch itr.-nin
of the frriovanco eommlttoa ot the systuin ,
prcscntoJ a document contnlnln ? twenty-one
articles , bolinf virtually a sut of rules for the
guidance of switchmen hereafter , it was a
request for an ndjustmunt of pressnt griev
ances , dcllnlng tlio duties of foremen and
switch tenders , seniority of persons entitled
to promotion and a now scale of wages to bo
paid not only at Denver , where tlio largest
increase Is made , but Increasing greatly the
number of yards now operated under what
Is known as the Chicago scale.
Hack of Mr. Farmer Is the united force
of the Switchmen's Mutml Aid association ,
represented at present in this city iiy the
general grievance committee , composed of
\V. G. Hey , Cheyenne ; G. G. Mllverstcd ,
Green Illver ; C. F. Donnelly , Denver j Kugcno
Lee , Salt Like : J. H. McClintoch , Albino ,
Ore. ; II. II. Still , Lcavenworth ; J. I' . Long ,
larainlo ; William Wilson. Grand Island.I. ;
II. O'Neill , Council Bluffs ; H. C. Nelson ,
Kansas City. These men will bo Joined
today by a delegation of the switchmen from
the Order of Hull way Trainmen of Denver
to give force to what is requested on the
part of the Aid association , as the yard at
Denver Is about equally divided between
the two organisations mentioned.
Domimd Higher Wages.
The chief grievance under discussion is
the discontent of the switchmen in Denver ,
who sternly demand the same wanes for like
work and similar risks as the switchmen get
in the yards at flutto and Anaconda. The
men at Butte and Anaconda lire working for
a different corporation , the Northern I'acillc ,
hut the men naturally think that , like work
and risks should bo paid for in like wages.
Tlio adjustment of wages asked for by the
Denver switchmen is a slight advance upon
the Chicago and Omaha scale , but the differ
ence , it Is claimed , is only to miiUo up for
extra work , skill and risk.
For instance : In the Denver yards there
is a collection of all tlio ante-bellum brlc-n-
brae of the country , and all kinds and widths
of cars and wheels , irrespective of previous
conditions of servitude , arc in use. In other
words , there is the narrow gnage , H feet ( i
inches , and the standard guago , 4 feet 8
inches , in operation with cars , engines and
couches of both sizes running in the same
train. This entails considerably more work
for the switchmen in making up trains than
if the ono standard was in sole use as in
Omaha.
The duties of a switchman are to "make
up'1 and "break-up"and where tlio third
rail is used the common coupling pin will not
operate and a long bir of iron has to ho
inserted in each cud of both cars on an
angle with a coupling pin in each drawhead.
The insertion of tills bar can only bo done by
hand , and right hero the risk comes in. The
men say that a switchman's job is the most
dangerous of any among railroad employes
and claim that they miike 200 couplings to a
hrakcman's one , though they would , by no
means , depreciate tlio enormous risk to life ,
health and limb the brakemcn run.
Tlio rropustul Schedule.
The difference In wages asked for by the
Denver men to equalize the scale paid to the
Butte and Anaconda switchmen is trilling ,
but still men hate to work for less than
others get for the same line of work. The
scales are as follows :
In Omaha and Denver : Day foreman ,
W.T. > ; night foreman , &J.UO ; day helper'J.CU ;
night helper , fc'J.70.
In Butte : Day foreman , $ .1.25 ; night fore
man , fJ.50 ; day helper , $3 ; night helper ,
&t.2T > .
Hut the men in the Denver yard seek to
raise the scaloas follows : For night foreman ,
0 cents per hour ; for niulit helper. 5 % cents
per hour ; for day foreman , 5 } < J cents per
hour ; for day helper , H cents per hour.
There is no demand made for an increase
at those yards now working under the
Chicago scale , but the design of the men is
to extend that scale to twenty-one yards in
stead of a dozen or so as under the present
arrangement.
In Omaha a switchman receives 575 per
month If he works each lawful working day.
Any extra work , such as Sunday or over
time , is paid for extra , and it is no uncom
mon occurrence for a foreman to receive
j 110 and a helper $100 per month. Of course
ho has to put In lifteen or sixteen hours a
day to do it , and often ho has no choice as
the work is there and vitally immediate and
must bo done then and there. But a man
cannot stand it long and has to lay off four
or live days at a stretch to fetch up for lost
sleep.
The men do not rest here , but ask that less
than thirty minutes work shall constitute
one-half hour's pay , also defining what wages
shall bo paid those who , by the very neces
sity of things , must work during the dinner
hour.
And to emphasize what they deem right
the committee now in Omaha will bo Joined
today by J. Dougherty , general chairman of
the grievance committees of the Gould
Southwest system , of which the Missouri
1'acillo is the main feeder , and who Is said
to ho ono of the smoothest men in the coun
try when It comes to presenting a case ue-
fore railroad onlcials.
The men have come to stay with Mr.
Dickinson until they receive an answer , if it
takes a month for that gentleman to go over
the schedule presented for tils approval.

SOUTH OMA.HA AFFAIU3.
.s 1'lro 1'rovuutcil by 1'roienco of

A smoldering lire in a Chinese laundry In
the basement of the Lister block on lower N
street was discovered Wednesday night in
tlmo to prevent what would certainly have
been an extensive lire If loft a few minutes
longer. S. I' . Urigham , whoso printing
house is on the first lloor of the block , was
warned by the smoke and personally notille.l
Chief Smith , who was only a block away.
Without turning in an alarm the chief made
his way into tlio basement , crawling on his
face through the dense smoke to the llro. A
few buckets of water held the blaze in check
until an alarm brought the department ,
when it was soon extinguished.
The lire started In a pile of old rags in the
back room of the laundry and was fast eat
ing its way up a partition. A few minutes
more and the wooden flro trap would have
been all nhla/o and it would have been a
miracle If the Delinonico hotel adjoining had
not also gone up in smoko.
The smoke from the burning Chinaman's
old rags was sickening , causing some of the
men to cast up their accounts , but they
stayed by the work.
Hold Attempt lit Itobbcry.
About the time the blaze at the Lister
block was absorbing the attention of tlio
people on the streats Wcdncs lay evening
three men staggered into JohnFlynn's cloth
ing store on N street and boldly undertook
to got away with articles of clothing. Flynn
got assistance from bystanders and after a
hard tussle the thieves were landed in Jail.
They were toughs of the first water , resist

cers a hard light in the corridor of the Jail.
