PAUPER PLAYING PHYSICIAN
County Agent Burr Makes an Interesting
Discovery in the Bottoms.
QUEER FIND IN A SQUATTER'S SHANTY
Herman Sellcukf ( Ircmlng TUoh by
the I'nor wltli Drue * Stolen from the
County rimrmncjr Mr. llurr'i
Curiosity Ilcwtxnleil.
Tor moro tiinn sovcn years Hcrmixn So-
llgslcy , n middle ngcd man with a. weather
bcntun face and a palslod arm , has been upon
the pauper lists of Douclas county , and dur
ing all Of thcso ycais ho has continued to
draw his weekly and monthly allowances of
provisions and fuel with the most surprising
regularity , never missing a date and never
showing any ability to better his nnanclil
condition. On account of Herman bolus a
crlpplo the county authorities hnvo con
sidered him a permanent churgo anil have
tried to remove many of the obstructions
Hint liavo appeared In his path over mo s
rocky road.
During all of these years Herman hai been
n resident of Squattcrtown and lint been
located In one of the meanest hovels on tlio
south bottoms. In tlio vicinity of the Page
Soap wotks. This place , which ho has been
pleased to designate as a home , has con
sisted of a two-room shanty , the front room
balng occupied as a living room , while It has
been presumed that the back room was a
sleeping chamber. A tattered and dirty
blanket has always done duty as a uoor ,
separating the two apartments. Dirt , ttlth
and squalor huvo always held full sway in
nnd about tlio premises , but until today
there never was a county oniclal who had
seen the Interior of the back room. Taking
the house as a whole it was a most unlquo
structure , being constructed of boards ,
barrel staves , dry goods boxes
nnd drift from the river. Tltno and again
the county agents huvo visited the premises ,
always to find Herman at homo and usually
In tlio midst of a number of his brother and
sister paupers. This fact sometimes excited
Hlisplclon in the minds of the agents , but
Herman explained the circumstances away
by saying that ho was a great story teller ,
and that his friends came to the house to
listen and hear him toll tales of Ills experi
ences when ho was a soldier in the Russian
army , a member of the czar's guards. This
explanation was accepted moro than Jlfty
times , and the man was loft alouu and con-
sldoicd as one of the most ordinary of the
ordinary paupers.
KxpoMMl nt I. int.
Yesterday , however , something happened
which has convinced County Agent 13urr
that Herman Sellgsky Is an Impostor and
that he is anything but what lie scorns , and
that instead of being a pauper ho Is a man of
some means as well us being a medical man ,
without'posscsstng the M. D. attachment.
During the reign of John .1. Muhonoy as
county agent the county operated a flrst
class pharmacy , from which the county
physician and , his assistants dealt medicines
to the outside poor. This drug department
of the county was located in the basement of
the court house , and as Mr. Mahoney had
many duties to perform , the plant was fre
quently loft without a keeper. Upon sundry
and divers occasions whole bottles of medical
concoctions disappeared , but whcro they
went was a question that could never bo
solved. Once or tw ice detectives were put
upon the case , but they were never able to
detect the person who did the pilfer
ing. though frequently It was carried on
under their very noses. At last , and about
the time when D.m Durr was installed as
county agent , the conn house pharmacy was
abandoned and the remainder of the stoclc
i removed to the county poor farm.
During the years when this stealing ol
drugs was going on Sellgsky was a daily visi
tor at the pharmacy , and would sit around
for hours entertaining ofllcuils and paupers
nllko , for ho was a llucnt talker and n man
who always had a good story with which to
illustrate a point. Owing to his alTnbllitj
and general appearance suspicion never
rcsjed upon hU shoulders , nor vyas ho over
accused of being .t robber of the county
building , though it was frequently noticed
uiul commented upon thai when ho staid
nway from the olllco nothing was stolen ,
Johnny Mnhoncy often observed this , nnd at
such times ho would say that ho did not
think that Herman was a thief , though he
frequently expressed the opinion that ho was
a hoodo.
Mr. Hurr'H Discovery.
Ycstordny morning County Agent Burr was
called to tlio south bottoms to relieve some
BiilTcriiip. and while there he macio a dis
covery that has completely cleared up the
mystery of the stealing of the drugs. He
liad attended to his duties and was on his
way to the city , his path leading past the
door of the Sollgsky hut. It was not his in
tcntlon to pay the man an early mouiinj :
visit , but In looking tluough the open win
dow of the hut he noticed a woitwu inside
conversing with Herman. Knowing thai
the county charge was n single man , the
ngent'8 curiosity was aroused , and crcciiiiif.
closer ho decided to play the part of an eaves
dropper. The decision was ono of the most
fortunate that Mr. Burr over concluded t (
make , for he made n great discovery. Aftoi
ho had waited a few moments ho bean
Scllpsky tell the woman that ipecac was tin
best known remedy for spasmodic colic , Urn
it should ho taken In ounce doses at interval !
ot ono hour , ( jetting up from 'jhu table
Sellgsky went into the bank room , to rotun
in a short time with a pepper sauce bottli
nearly tilled with a dark colored liquid.
"Kurekn. " it Is alleged that Mr. Burr exclaimed
claimed as he darted around the corner am
into the hut. Ho did not wait for : in Invita
tion , nor did ho stand upon ceremonies , bu
throwing aside the blanket curtain tha
served as a door between the tuo rooms
rushed into the ruar apartment , where i
eight met his gaze that nearly throw htm of
Ills feet. On several rows of sholvcs'ar
ranged about the walls there was the gront
est urr.iy of boxes and bottles that tip luu
ever looked upon. Tha boxes were of al
sizes and kinds , and most of them contain
ing powders , salves and herbs , while th
bottles wora filled , or partially filled will
all kinds of drugs and liquids. Some o
these drugs were In boor bottles , others i
pop bottle s , while a few were original pacu
ages , the lattcrnll bearing the printed label
_ Vrom the Douglas County Pharmacy. "
Sollgsky. as p.ilo as a corpse , had follnwei
Mr. llurr into the room and stood tremblln
us the agent made his Investigation , whlcl
It took some time to complete. Finally Bur
asked : " \Vhero did you get this truck ! "
Drug ! Duinpocl In the Iltvur.
The owner of the stock tried to dodg
the issue , but at hint and when prcnod t
the wall admitted that all of the drugs ha
bueii stolen from the county nnd that fc
I years ho had boon dealing the vllo concoction
' out to the poor of the Dottpmn without li.n
ing any medical knowledge of the effect
that the mixtures would produce , though h
said that ho had cured many cases thn
had baillcd tlto skill of the county physlciai
Burr could not swallow the story and aftc
learning that Herman had never seen th
inside of a medical college and that hovn
not the possessor of a diploma whtiv
authorised him to proscribe for the man
ills that Mesh and blood arc heir to , teethe
the whole outllt and consigned it to th
murky bosom of the Missouri , much again :
the many and loud proteiti of the orstwhil
doctor pauper.
The nnd led to another investigation , L
which it was learned from tlio paupers i
the neighborhood that for several yeai
Sellgsky had boon plying hU trade an
that he had managed to make constdorabl
money by his operations , as he took his pa
in wood , provisions , coal , or anything whlc
liU patients could rustle. While ho got bi
little inoneyhe converted these contributloi
into cash , making a winner at both ends , i
ho was supported by the county ana was i
the same tlmo being paid for Ufa services I
the county charges ,
Yearly all of the p.iupers In that locnll
claim to have the utmost confidence In tl
"doctor's" ability und tell of some mlrac
lout cures whlcn ho hiu made , though thi
admit that some have died from the oltcc

TO CLOSE OR NOT TO CLOSE
That'is the Leading Question Among Tonsorial -
serial Artists Just Now.
BARBERS ON PROPOSED "LEGISLATION
Journeymen \Vnnt the Shop * Clound on Snn-
< lnyVhllo the Proprietor * Allege Hint
the Action Would Kill Trnilo nnil
Do Uonornl Unninge.
There wns n good dcnl of talk among the
barbers yesterday concerning the proposed
Sunday closing ordinance , which' was
brought up for consideration hi tlio city
council last night and liud over until next
Tuesday. , .
The measure wns Introduced In the coun
cil about thrco months ago on bohnlf ot the
working burbors , who , to the number of ITS.
with some employers , signed n petition usk-
lng for n Sunday closing ordinance. The
matter has been hanging lire all tills tlmo ,
but II is expected that the council
will take action shortly. As a rule , the cm-
players are opposed to tlio passage of the
rtl I mi nee , and many working barbers , also ,
hjeut to it , claiming that their fortnightly
ollduy will bo cut off , and that another re-
ult might bo the reduction of wages on nc-
ount of decreased business. * '
The hotel barbers are making the strong-
st light against the passage of the ordl-
anco , fcollng that tliolr interests are most
t stake , such a largo proportion of their
rude being transient , nnd much of that
oing SUnday "stop-over" trade.
Adam Morroll of the Merchants hotel
hop says : "Tho general sentiment
3 against the passage of the
rdlnanco. Thrra are , really , only two
f the larger shops In favor ot It
nd their motives are open to question. The
raveling public wants to find the shops
pen on Sunday and wo have to accommodate
hem. If the ordinance Is passed , 1 don't
jollovo It will bo observed. Ihero will bo
dozens of barbers who can't afford to dis-
bllgo their patrons and who will manage to
vork on tlio quiet just the same.
Again , should the ordinance go Into
affect , It will hurt the Interests of the trade
n moro ways than ono. For Instance , the
; ustotn of persons shaving themselves has
grown In the past , few years to bo qulto
joncral. Now , if the regular patron of n
wrber shop Is obliged to shave himself on
Sunday , ho will reason that ho can do it err
veok days Just as well , und ho ceases to
latronlzo a shop. "
Joseph Florelll of 'tho Murray shop do-
: larcd himself In favor of closing and says
10 does not believe that there Is enough
Stirday business to warrant keeping every-
jody open. Ho thinks a majority of tno
barbers are In favor of closing.
S. P. Emmol of the P.ixton could not bo
icon , but his employes , who say they are
u favor of closing , stated that ho is opposed
to It.
Anihrustor & Bayard of the Mlllard said :
The movement Is being agitated by dis
satisfied working barbers and some of the
LO-ccnt shops , which hope , thereby , team
? am some Saturday trade. They are being
backed by the Central Labor union. They
.lon't seem to remember that it would result
In the abolition of holidays and the possible
reduction of wages , und it will bo found that
a great many working barbers urn opposed
to It for those reasons. Another thing : If
Lhe ordinance goes Into effect , it is going to
keen away a largo amount ol hotel trade , for
a traveling man is not going to put
up over Sunday in a town where ho can't
; ct shaved , if ho can help It. This means
the loss of a good many dollars to the city.
Even If the ordinance docs pass , it won't
work. Every hotel man in town will put a
couple of chairs in an upstairs room for the
accommodation of his guests. "
Harry Miller is strongly in favor of the
ordinance , stilting that in his opu.ion bar
bers ought to have a day of rest as well as
other pcoplo , and that there is no sensein
keeping open for the amount of business
done on Sunday. Ho bcliovcs a majority ol
the b.irbers favor the measure.
Sentiment among the employed barbers Is
divided. Those favoring the measure sol
forth that their hours are pretty long , any
way , and that 8 o'clock closing during the
week is moro often at 0 o'clock , and thai
Saturday night 10 o'clock closing more fre
quently means 11 or 11:30 : o'clock , and thej
therefore hold that they should huvo ul
least one day in the wock for rest.
Busy pcoplo have no tlmo , and sensible
pcoplo have no inclination to use pills thai
make them sick a day for every dose thoj
tako. They have learned that the use oDe
Do Witt's Little Early Ulsers does not in
torfcro with their no.ilth by causing nauset
pain or griping. These little pills are per
feet In action and result , regulating tin
stomach and bowels so that headaches

HAD HUSBANDS TO SPAKE.
An Uinnhn Wonmn ngurc * In u Svnintlonnl
Will Ciuo in lon\ur.
Many of the pcoplo who resided in this
city during the summer of 1887 , and espe
cially those who happened to have business
transactions with a certain agricultural Im
plement house , will remember a smooth and
olly-tongucd ugent who enjoyed the luxury
of parading under the high-sounding name
of Francis 13. Hussell. With Uussoil there
was a woman who was introduced as his
wife , and who succeeded by her winning
ways In capturing the entree to some of
Omaha's best , society.
For a time the Hussclls flow high , but
about one year after having staked their
tent in this city they dropped out of sight as
completely as they would it the earth had
oucncd and swallowed them. Where nnd
why they went no ouo would
venture an opinion , but now Mrs.
Hussell has appeared upon the
scenes In Denver , where she is figuring as a
much married woman and one of the parties
to a somewhat seiiBattonalcaso in which she
is attempting to establish her claim to p.irt
of the estate of ono of the ( ' .und millionaires
of the foot hills city , alleging that
Bho was the wife of J.uuoi W.
Carey , who died last Maich. On
the witness stand she testified that
on Christmas , IblK ) , Carey was with her until
late in the evening , and on the next day she
said ho gave her a contract by which they
agreed to live together as man and wife ,
which she and ho tigncd. TJils contract she
swore was among the papers taken away by
the family ot the deceased from the hitter's
room shortly after his doath.
After they had signed the contract , she
went on , ho placed a gold wedding ring on
her finger. It bore- the inscription , "J. W.
C. to F. O. W. " Afterwards they lived to
gether in the Good and Witter blocks.
Sometimes Air. Gary introduced her as
his wife and again ho Introduced her as
Mrs. Hussell. Hero she mentioned the
names of a number of persons to whom
she said Mr. Cnry introductd her as his wife.
She first saw Hooort Cary , n brother of the
deceased , a week before Air. Cary died.
Sam Cary , another brother , she said slout in
her app.irtmcnts , in her child's bed.
She visited , Qnlvestou , Tex. , with Mr.
Cary on ouo occ.iilon * and stopped at , the
Bench hotel. At this ijolnt Judge Fclker
handed her feoVerul .bills , which , she iden
tified , us board bills' at the iBeuch hotel.
She said that they were nutd by Mr. Cary.
The witness continued-thai while at Ual-
veston they also stopped at Mr. Fickotts'
house and livcd'thero us man and wife. Mr.
Cary while at this house intioduccd her as
Ills wife. Since leaving Gulveston she luid
received letters from Mrs. Fickotts , in
which the latter addressed' her as Mrs.
The testimony showed that prior to her
having mot Carey she had traveled over the
country with Hussull , passing as his wife ,
and stopping ut Columbus , Neb. , Boulder ,
Colo. , and in Now Mexico , some of the
dividing her attentions between Russell and
a man named Palmer , who was also known
as u husband. Finally she shook Palmer and
again stood in solid with Uussoil. Again
she left him nnd took up with Palmer.
The witness continued that after a year
spent nt Boulder she returned to Russell ,
hut did not Hvo with him. She said that
Hussell did not support her at Boulder.
They lived with friends. Afterward bho
came to Denver with Mr. Hussell and took
rooms in the Timcrnian block for about a
year. Later she lived with Hubsell on
Arapahoe street and also on Curtis street.
She also lived with Hussell in Now Mexico
as his wifo.
She continued that Mr. Carey wrofo to her
In Now Mexico , tolling her to come to Den
ver und live with him us his wifo. She do-
stioyed this letter immediately , she said.
She went on to Denver In response to the
letter und Mr. Cary Installed her la a house

cation of the postodlco , so Androoson , it Is
claimed , has been running ono of his own ,
thereby spoiling the business of Uncle Sam'9
dulv accredited representative.
Nearly all the outgoing mall of the
vicinity has been left with Androcscn to
send out , and ho has called nt the
postofllco for tli.i mall of his friends nnd
customers and delivered it to thorn through
his own box-system. Undo Sam , being a
monopolist , objects , and Postpfflco Inspector
Steen told Androccon to tro out of the
poutoflleo business. Androeson thereupon
"sassed" the In&uector , nnd It Is understood
that Deputy Marshal Boohino is armed
wi'.h a warrant fopijr. Andrcesen.

Edgar Brudloy\yUo live * at the northwest
corner of Sixteenth and Izard streets , swore
to a search warrant yesterday which In
structed the ofllccroi to search tbo premises
of "John Doo" fop-uo chain , dog collar and
tag valued at I'J. Incidentally it might bo
mentioned that a dpy wora' the collar and
was collared by 80.019 of the men connected
with the pounuintviter's department for the
sake of the reward ! which would probably
bo offered. If thu'caao comes to trial the
complaint will bo changed to grand larceny ,
as under the decision of the supreme court
dogs properly tagged hive a money value.
