Albert Elsloi , a Gorman carpenter , was shot
and badlv wounded early this morning nt the

who was evidently crazed with drink. At a
few minutes before 8 o'clock ' Ben Floyd , ttio
bartnndor , nnd Klslor were engaged In chasing -
ing out some Illos , using In the process
towels placed on the ends of long poles.
Dolan appeared at the door whllo they were
thus engaged and asked If no could got a
drink. The bartender seeing ho was drunk
told him ho couldn't , nnd ho shouted back :
'Do you fellows want some monuyt"
Floyd replied that ho guessed ho could use
nhttlo In his business. Whllo this conver
sation was transpiring Kislor approached
the door , nnd as ho brought his polo down
on ono of tlio swoops , the stranger urabbcd It
mid hung onto It until ho had torn the towel
loose , when Eislor , In hulf joking way ,
prodded hint In the nhouldcr with the polo.
With this the man Jumped back nnd declar
ing , "I inn lid Dolar , a from
Flat Koek , nnd 1 am Just looking for someone -
ono to kill , " pulled a gun and began shooting.
Tno Ilrst shot struck Klsler In the throat , cut
ting n piece of the windpipe , nnd came out on
the right sldo of the nock. Then It entered
his uplifted arm , burying Usolf In the
muscles In the right sldo , from whence tt
was extracted. Another shot , toro a long
car In the celling , but by this time the
fellow's thirst for gore was exhausted , and
putting the gun In his pocket lie walked
cross the street. Ofllcor Morrlssoy was
near by , ana took him In charge. On the
Tray to the station ho Insisted that the
Ofllcer was the man who did the shooting ,
nnd ns proof pointed to the gun the ofllcer
had taken from him. Soon after his incar
ceration ho fell Into n stupor , and could not
bo roused aufllclently to talk connectedly

FUBMONT , July 13. [ Special to TUB BEG. ]
The great attractions nt the Central
Chautauqua assembly today were the able
Addresses of Itov. Dr. tx0 ! Franklin of
Omaha this afternoon on "Tho Modern Jew
and his Belief , " and the ono this evening by
Colonel George W. Bain of Kentucky ,
"Prose Ballads of Memory. " The attend
ance Is steadily Increasing , many coming to
pond the last week , which will bo the best
ono of ( ho three , who could not spare moro
time in the touted city. The success of the
Chautauqua financially and otherwise for
18U3 has already been assured.
Dr. Franklin begun his remarks by saying
that all the prejudice that had existed
ngulnst the Jews in centuries past was duo
to n misconception of Judaism and that
therefore the opportunity of speaking on
the subject assigned was ix grand ono , mas-
much as the enlightenment of the masses on
this subject would tend to decrease the pre
judice. ' 'Modern Judaismor moro properly
reform Judaism , Is distinguished from an
cient or orthodox Judaism in that the forinor
Observes the spirit of the laxv , whllo the
latter laid stress upon the obsorvatiou of the
very letter. With this change in the inter
pretation of scriptures there entered into
the lifo of the Jewish people a moro pro
gressive spirit , an openness to reason before
unknown and an abrogation of unmeaning
ceremonies. In its striking'outllnes reform
Judaism is u. religion of deed ujid not of
creed and In this resembles the religion of
the prophets.
"Wo believe that every man of genius is
Inspired. We bellovo that every man who
devotes himself unto the good of others is
inspired. Wo believe that every man whoso
thoughts are liberal and whoso heart Is pure
and unsellish is inspired. A Homer and a
Virgil , a Dante and n Milton , a Spencer and
a Stewart Mill , a Morse and an Kdlson are
as truly Inspired with a mission from on
high as ever was a Moses , a David or an
Elijah. That wo admit this does not curtail
our admiration for these characters of un
dent lore. Theirs was a noble destiny and
well did they fulfill It. They were the Ilrst
upon whom fell the mantle of inspiration ,
but they tmvu handed it down to future gen
erations. It wan also said that the Jew does
not represent a race , but simply n religious
community. In all oUo ho is ono with those
in whoso midst ho dwells , Upon Jesus the
JUWB look ns n great and good man , n re
former who lived far in advance of his ago ,
and the Inilnenco of his teachings has been a
potent nnd Important factor in shaping mod'
orn civilisation. "

About two weeks ago in these dispatches
reference wag made to the scramble made by
a number of Verona township farmers for
the posseslon of a quarter section of land
which for eight years past has been totally
unclaimed by the forinor owner. The tract
in question is located u mile from Presser
and was a homestead obtained by H. A.
Sanderson In tbo early days of the county.
Now it is valued at 3,000. In 1885 Sander
son disappeared and since that time there
has been much rivalry among covetous
neighbors as to who should obtain a tax
deed. On Tuesday last a petition was tiled

A. Sanderson of Ogle county , Illinois , alleg
ing that the stray quarter section was given
to him by the will of his adopted father ,
who died In Ogle county shortly after ho

CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS

FIVE PER CENT WILL BE THE NEW RATE
Mayor Ilcinl * and IIU Iron Hand Veto An

niorat of an Are I.lRht Io-
tallt of the Soi lon.
At the adjourned session of the council
bold , last night , the twelve members who
were presentment loose and started in to
slash the scalps of the members of the Board
ot Public Work * .
Mr. Steel introduced the following resolu
tion whtoli was unanimously adopted :
Whereas , Tlio city has not boon ahlo to lot
liny contracts for pormnliunt sidewalks slnco
Juno lon account of no spocillcntlons being
approved ; and
Whereas , Tlio city council ha unanimously
adoptuil a resolution concerning Bald spuclti-
catlons ; nnd
Wliornni , A majority of the members ot thn
Hoard ot Public works have refused to obuy
the ummlMos ut the council , oxpro od In xnld
resolution , to the great detriment ot the city ;
therefore , bo It
llesolved , Tlmt If the Hoard ot Public Works
does not comply with the directions ot tlio
city council In tlili mutter nnd have the apoc-
lllcntlon.t prepared In acrordunco with the
wlnhea ot the council by TuiMduy next Hint
tliu judiciary commtltoo of the city council bo
directed to prepare charge * nRnlnst the snld
me miters ot tlio Hoard of I'nblio Works \vlio
rotusu to obuy the Inttruutloim , with a view to
expelling thorn from olllco nnd thus prevent
them trout cloKglng the vrhcoU of progress ,
The council then paid its respects to the
squatters on the bottoms and gave thorn a
scare. By the terms of a resolution these
squatters nnd their habitations were declared -
clarod to bo a menace to the publlo health.
Then , In unmistakable language , it was pro
posed to direct the street commissioner to
tear down all of the shanties in the district
bounded by Jackson street , the Union Pa-
cillo railroad bridge , Sixth street and the
Missouri river , and remove the occupants to
the poor farm , calling in tbo police force of
the city to assist in the eviction.
The members of the council were in no
haste to take action , so the matter was re
ferred to the committee on polico.
Incrouio of Interest on Ilondj.
When the proposition to increase the rate
of interest on the city bonds , from 4)
to 5 per cent was submitted , Mr. Whcolor ,
of the finance committee , stated that on ac
count of the absence of the city attorney , ho
had not been able to umko his report.
Mr. Hascall opposed the reduction of the
rate of interest. Ho declared that It was a
direct attack upon the credit of the city ;
thousands of men had taken their money
from the banks and many of them wcro
ready to take blocks of bonds. Ho urged
that It was folly to loan the city funds to the
banks at 2 per cent aud then go out aud sell
Q percent bonds.
Mr. Saundcrs was of the opinion that Mr.
Hascall did not tnko the stringency of the
mouoy market into consideration. It vras
bettor policy , ho said , to pay a higher rate
of interest , got money and furnish the
laborers employment than to suspend all pub
lic work until another season. Ho scouted
the idea that there were Omaha capitalists ,
who would take the bonds at 4 } per cent ,
for they could loan their funds at 10 per
cent.
cent.Harris
Harris & Co. of Chicago wrote , saying
that if the In tores ; could bo increased to 5
per cent , they would send a man hero to
look the ground over , but that they would
not touch the bonds if they drew but 4 % per
cent interest.
\V. B. Taylor wrote that ho had corre
sponded with forty-five of his customers with
reference to the sale of the f 150,000 of bonds.
None of them wanted 4 } per cent paper , but
if the rate vras increased to C per cent inter
est , some of them might take the whole
issue.
Mr. Prince , in speaking upon the question ,
said that the difference in interest would bo.
about $750 per year. Ho thought the best
plan would be to pay that amount to feed
and clothe possibly 100 families during the
coining winter.
Upon being called to the floor City Treas
urer Bolln said that it would bo impossible
to soil a tyi per cent bond. He had corre
sponded with all of the bond buyers , but
none of thorn would take them at 4 > in bulk
or in small blocks.
Mr. Munro urged that the only way to
start the public improvements was to reIssue -
Issue the bonds at G per cent and got the
money into Omaha as soon as possible. Ho
contended that there was money in the city
to take the bonds , but the bankers
would not lot it go. The banks
had the money , but tholr policy was too nig
gardly to allow them to do anything for the
city. They had broken ono bank and a score
of business houses , simply that they might
draw more money into their own vaults. If
there was time to make the experiment , bo
would llko to see the city withdraw its $575-
000 loaned at 3 par cent and test the result.
Mr. Hascall still contended that the bonds
could bo floated at 4 > { per cent If the expert ;
meat was mado.
Mr. Wheeler said that the contractors had
boon to the banks , offering to put up the
bonds as security for loans , but not u bank
in the city would loan a dollar on the paper
at the rate of interest it was drawing.
Mr. McLcario urged that it was a business
proposition and if the city could not got
money it might as well go out of busi
ness. It was absurd to follow out ttio Has
call idea nnd try to peddle out the bonds in
$100 lots. Mon had to bo furnished with
work and the only way it could bo secured
was to reissue the bonds.
Mr. Munro thought that it was strange
that a city with $070,000 in the bank should
suspend alt public works. That was too
largo a surplus , ho said , to Ho Idle , and , fol
lowing out the line of his argument , ho moved
that the prosecution of the public works on
all sewers under contract bo commenced.
Mr. Wnoolor opposed this , saying that the
money belonged to the several funds of the
city and could not bo used for the construc
tion of sewers and pavements.
Mr. Stool felt positive that if the ordi
nance was introduced providing for a 5 per
cent rate of interest , work could bo com
menced , warrants could bo drawn and they
would bo paid and the amount taken from
the proceeds of the bonds when they were
sold.
In the most emphatic tcrina Mr. Wheeler
declared that ho would pot out an injunc
tion before any work was comait..cod.
Itepualod lite Ordinance.
At the end of a lengthy discussion it was
decided to repeal the ordinance providing
for a tyi per cent rate of interest. The com
mittee on nnauca was instructed to prepare
an ordinance fixing the rate at 5 per cent ,
instead of the former figure.
Tills question having boon disposed of ,
Mr. Manro's motion to start the publlo
works , and Issue warrants against the funds
in the banks was taken up aud passed , Mr ,
Wheeler alouo voting "No. "
Fully ilfty persons protested against the
removal of the arc light from Twenty-fifth
and Chicago streets to Twenty-fifth and
Davenport streets. That settled the matter ,
and thn light will remain where formerly lo-
catou ,
Kobert E. Duncan wrote to the council ,
saying that Major Furay had requested him
to turn over all papers and records pertain
ing to plumbing and strcot excavations. Ho
asked for Instructions ag to what
course ho uhould pursuo. Furay is
the member of the Board of Publlo
Works by virtue of the provisions
of the now charter , which relegated Mr ,
Duncan to private life and made ono of the
members of the board a sewer nnd plumbing
inspector. Not knowing Just what to do In
the promises , Mr. Duncan's latter was re
ferred to the committee- sewerage.
Mayor Bemis vetoed the resolution to pay
Charles A. Austin { 700 damages on a lot in
Shrivcr Place , caused by the change of
grade of a street. The veto wu sustained.
Property owners waived damages and pe
titioned for the grading of Locust from
Twenty-first to Twenty-fourth , street. This
was referred.

way.Tho number running Wednesday was
fifteen and they were producing nt the rate
of 34,000 barrels per twenty-four hours.
If there is any change to bo noted in the
flour market it is In the direction of quieter
trado. Some of those firms who do n good
deal of export business report reduction in
sales in thai quarter. The domestic trade
has boon poor , nnd confined largely to regu
lar customers buying in small lots , but there
is no clmngo. The foreigners continue to
bid for all grades , ovcii including bran nnd
thorts , but their viotvs are usually so much
lower than those of the seller ns to preclude
very free trading. A number of firms nro
sold nhoaa on local orders and direct tholr
efforts moro especially toward moving
patents. The foreign inquiry for low grades
helps to keep prices up on that product.
The direct export shipments by the mills
last week wcro only 40,020 barrels , against
70,100 the piccocding week.

Children fed on Inotntod food grow
hardy and strong. The nfBcacy of the
nutritive quality of this perfect substi
tute for pure human milk has long boon
acknowledged by the ruoillcal. profes

Pure mothor'H milk is the ideal food
for Infanta , but when this is out of the
question , laotated food , which moro
closely than anything else rosombloa
houltby human mill : , should bo used.
The majority of deaths of children
under flvo years is directly traceable to
the ignorance and mismanagement of
mothers. But it is being hotter nnd
hotter known that the dreadful scourge ,
cholera infantum , aud similar summer
troubles may bo prevented by the use of
laotatod food. In many communities it
has reduced the ratio of mortality of in
fants under five yours. It hui entered
the practical working pharmacopoeia of
thousands of physicians. It cannot bo
too often said that it has saved thou
sands ot infants' lives and , caused as
many moro to grow plump and active.
The curoful mother should not give
her child anything the composition of
which is not Known to hor. Laotated
food is not a socrotkproparatlon. It Is
made in the most uaj-qful munnor from
the nourishing oloinontH of wheat and
barley properly coufb'inod with the pure
sugar of milk. The buildings wore it is
prepared and > -put up are famous for
tholr absolute cleanliness. It never
spoils.
Mothers the country ever have for
years been writing grateful letters toll
ing how their children when fed upon
luutatod food have grown from weak
and puny babes to1" healthy , happy ,
hearty , youngsters , nnd this experience
of other mothers together with the best
medical skill If nt ttio service of every
mother in the land. ! ' .f
Mr. A. D. WontwoBji , Ningara'Palls ,
a picture of whoso baby is given anovo ,
writes : "Our boy was born in March
and his mother died ono week after his
birth , Ho wns so feeble that wo did not
think wo could ralso him , but a friend I
recommended laotated food to us , after j
wo hud tried almost everything olao ,
and slnco then ho has thrived like a
young rabbit nnd hits never had a sick
duy. Ho weighs twenty pounds and is
in perfect h mlth. "
Mrs. J. F. Whltson from away out in
Michigan writes ; "Wo owe the lifo of
our baby girl to laotatod food and wo
treasure her moro than wo can oxpross.
People that call on mosay/What a nice ,
fat baby ! How I wish mine was as fat
und hoalthy. ' I tell them to food their
huby laotatod food and it will bo just aa
fat I will recommend the laotatod food
to every mother I moat. We have used
it over since you sent us the eatnplo last
spring , and think there is no other like
it. Nn words of mine can fully describe
the merits of lactated food. "
