8 TFTE OMAHA DAILY HEEs ! MONDAY , AUGUST M , 1803 , AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Oily Olcrk Ditzan is Compiling a Eoport that Will Interest Taxpayers. MATTHEW ARMSTRONG TAKES A "HEADER" Complnlnt of i Mutlinr DOB the Sabbath-several Accident * Yr ter- Onjroiindinintfr nnd tlio 1'ollce CloMlp of the Manic City. The exccutlvo committee npix > lntcd nt the chool house on the night that KA Johnson rend his report on what the city council and city ofllclals had und had not donohashad a meeting or two since that night. It has chosen C. M. Hunt president and Sam Brlgham secretary. Aside from this nothing ImsTxjcn accomplished. Tno "mnro's nest" sprung by Dave Andcr' ion on the Sullivan settlement bus all been cleared up. City Attorney Van Dmcn rec ommended that the council compromise the case for WOO. This was done through iMrs. Sullivan's attorneys. The reason why Mrs. Sullivan only got $350" out of the claim was because her lawyers took the claim on n commission nnu the amount the lady got was her contract right. It Is unfair to in&lnuato after this explanation that any city onicial had n linger in this claim. The taxpayers' committee sent word to the city clerk , city treasurer and street com missioner to moot It ( it lid Johnson's of fice on Saturday night. Mr. Hector was out of the city and the city clerk and street commissioner called at the plnco of mooting ttnu Informed the gentlemen that Inasmuch as the only information they had of the contents - tents of the Johnson report was vhat they had seen in the newspapers , they could not nnswer or discuss It until a copy of the same had been given them. City Clerk Dlt7.cn Is now working on n re port winch will bo very ilctniled anU give , perhaps , what information the executive committee is after. The mayor has not yet decided whether ho will have the clerk's re port read in a public hall or at a regular meeting of the city council. .Struck on til * Ilcnd. Matt Armstrong , a citizen of Hooper , this state , gave an exhibition on Twenty-fourth itrcct yesterday afternoon that resulted In b serious concussion of his brain. Armstrong was on a southbound motor , nnd. it is said , was intoxicated. As the train crossed I street nt n pretty lively rate of speed Armstrong's hat blow off. Not giving any thought to the swiftness with which ho was passing through space the fellow jumped off the car In pursuit of his sunshade. Armstrong is a heavy sot man nnd ho fell hard. The ilrst part of him that came In contact with the asphaltum was his bald head and on this dolicatc portion of his person ho splnned for n second and then fell in n heap. Ho was gathered up and taken to Lr. ) Dell's ofllce , where ho was patched up and sent on his way. The gash on his head was about three inches long and there wan also considerable concussion. It is safe to guess that the next tlmo Armstrong wants to got off a motor ho will signal the conductor to give him n slow bell. Extemltni : the Motor I.lno. The work of placing the poles for the motor line between South Omaha and Al bright will begin this week. As statoil in THE BEE ten days ago , the management ol the horse car line has concluded to change from horse to motor power , ns thcro is little difference In Iho expense and a great Dcncflt n the dlllcroiico of speed and convenience. Arransrmdnt's have been made whereby the Metropolitan Street Uailwny company will furnish the power. The management has not yet decided whether new or second hand cars will bo put on , but moro trains will bo run nnd the accommodations greatlj increased. The line will pass over the same route ol thn present horse car line , making the ter minus nt this end of the L street viaduct , No intimation hus been made to lot the public believe that Iho company has nnj intention of sending the cars across the viaduct nnd over into the Fourth ward Even this change , however , will bo griuify Jng to those who live in Albright and tin southern part of the city. I'nunilniHhtLT uiul the I'ollco. Now that the city has a poundmaster It ii the opinion of South Oinnhans that it woult bo good Judgment on the part of the police t < notify that gentleman of any cattle o : horses that they take up In the night li order that the owner may speedily loc.at his lost stock. On last Friday Mr. F. P Freeman's cow strayed away. Ho scourci the city for it and called ton the pound matter a number of times to ascertain if h had located the animal. Last evening Mi Freeman learned that n policeman hai placed bis cow m a livery barn on Frida ; night , whcro the animal has been feaatin cvur since. It is said that if the police hai notified the poundmastor of the fact th owner of cho cow would have boon saved great deal of expense and work. Mayor Walker will investigate if thcro i any jealousy existing between the potic nnd the poundmabtur nnd hnvo the work cai ricd on In a more systematic manner.

A contested will case will como \\v \ In the district court on August 23vhlcii will doubtless cnuso considerable Interest. Tlio amount Involved Is ? 10.00l ) , nud promi nent legal lights hnvo been retained b.v both sides. Tlio case Is the will of Mary Mc- Kcmm. John Baldwin , ns attorney for the heirs , has tiled n notice of contest of the so-called will of the deceased. It alleges that unduu influence was used In getting Mary MclContta , to sign the document. There Is quite a story connected With the case. Mrs. McKcnna , as she was known In Omaha , was the roliut of 1C. J. McICunna. She had made several successful Invest- mc'its which increased to n value of $10.000. Shortly afterward she went 'to UutTalo , Wyo. , where she married Mllio McLaughUn. McLnughlln died , and the two-tlmo widow , " it is said , then onaued n rnsort near the United States fort nt that place. In n short tlmo she cleared up $3,000 in good hard cash , tiho cnmo to Omaha , and as she was growing rather aged , she consulted Judge Baldwin , wlio has been her attorney for the past llftcen years. She told him she wanted to make her will and that she had several relatives In North Ireland whom she wished to remember. It is said that the woman had n reverence for the Catholic faith and had n will drawn be queathing $1,000 to the sisters of St. Joseph's hospital. The rest of her wealth was ordered paid to her relatives in Ire land. The will was destroyed on advlco of her attorney and as she did not know who of her relatives wcro'living , she was persuaded to visit thu oiu country , which she did last September , round Her ItehiUvcn In Iroliiml. She returned in November and notified Judpo Baldwin that she had found her relatives and was now ready to make her will. She called on the attorney several times , hut as ho was busy she had no oppor tunity to hnvo him draw up the document. In February she was taken ill , and on the 21M day of that month aho died at the CrelghtoH hospital. A will was made out by Attorney ICngllsh nnd appoint ing Dr. Hiloy ns executor , bequeathing $ 1,000 to the Catholic academy in the northwest portion of Omaha ; $1,000 and the rest of her fortune to the Franciscan Sisters. This will was signed by "Mary KcKonny" irf a Sprawling hand , which JudRO Baldwin says is not her signature. ConfuHlon oT Cognomens. Her name in Omaha was Mary McKcnna , and the name she went under in Wyoming was MuLaughlln. Judge B.ildwin has been given the power of attorney by Mary Fitzpatrick and thrco other relatives of the deceased in Ireland to contest the will , and the legal fight will be a hot one. The judge says that the Hfo of the deceased was such that she could bo easily inlluenccd through religion and that the signature- the will is not written in the manner in which she usually spelled her name. Dentil Upset Her riling. She had told a brother in Ireland to keep her cousin , Mary Fitzpatrick. as long as she lived and draw on her for the nay. This leaves her relatives without a cent of her money. She told Judge Baldwin that she was golnp ; to give the Sisters at St. Joseph's hospital 51,000 of her money and would leave the rest to her relatives In. . Ire- hind , but she died before she Had time to thus dispose ol her property. The papers in the rioticp of contest set forth that'tho deceased was not of u "dis posing state of mind.

The author has been very considerate with his expected readers in placing a conspicuous skull and erossbones on the cover and tltlo page , so that its con tents on perusal appear at once in accord and rational as the dream-born fancy of a modern Quixote buttling with stupendous secret conspiracies in which all the crowned heads of Europe are secretly bound together to the supreme end. of overthrowing our lib erties ; and not only the monarchical loaders but the churches nl o , both Protestant and Catholic , are in the cabal.

Beyond this tholr points of view are quite various , and their discussion is extremely interesting.

Philadelphia Ledpor : Ono of the reulibtio bits of verso in Stun Walter Fosa's now book of ' 'Batik Country Poems" is called "Sho Talked. " It tolls the story of a young woman possessed of the little learning which is so clangorous a thing , and the taste for mad household decoration which is not less so. Ilor true love , an honest , everyday young yoomnn , comas to woo ; but sometimes ncSho talked of cosmos and of snuso , And \\ovo green elephants In Kau/o , And whllu she fruicood uiirthun jugs Her tongue would never pausu. And sometimes she Would mtiku all kinds of macrame , And paint green bobolinks upon Her mother's dinner tray. ° Or again She'll talk of ether and o/.ono , And paint i small yellow poodles on Her brother's razor hone. Until us Ho bent In lovn's tempestuous sale , She talked of strata and of .shale ; And woiked magenta popples on HIT mothers water pall ; And wlille bo ploail with nasslon's uower Hlie iimpllfiud on Schopenhauer ; A pistol bungs !

HO joined the pops forthwith and began u bom bardment of Buz ard's Bay , While Cleveland - land did not surrender , Tommy imagined the man of destiny was humbled. Ho tunica his picture to tlio wall and bided his tlmo. The "crowning Infamy" came with the message. The turned plcturo was reno vated and now graces ' 'the galaxy of oxo- cratcd celebrities" In the lumber room of the Kocky mountain terror. Thcro is no hope for Cleveland unless ho buys Tommy a bowwow. GRIME IN HIGH PLACKSI It Is not strange that some people do wrong through ignorance , others from a failure lo investigate as to the right or wrong of a inattor. But It is str.iugo , that Individuals and firms , who are fully nwiiro of the rights of others , will per sist in perpetrating frauds upon them. High-toned , wealthy manufrcturlng firms will offer and Hell to retail mer chants , articles which they know to bo Infringements on the rights of proprie tors , and imitations of well known goods. Wo want to sound n note of warning lethe the retailers to beware of such Imita tions nud simulations of ' 'CAii/ruii's LlT- TLBLlVKltlJlM.s. " When they are of fered lo you , refuse them ; you do not want to do wrong , and you don't want lo lay yourself liable lo a lawsuit.
