" THE OMAHA DAILY BEE : "SATURDAY , AUGUST 26 , 1893. OBJECTED TO HIS COLOR Civil Rights Bill Violated by a Lincoln 4 Institntion. DR. FLIPPIN WILL HAVE SATISFACTION lie Ci u cn thn Arrmt of the liulMduals Who IleprlTed Him of III * HI slits Under tlin CoiutltiUlon Other Cnpltnl City Noire. LINCOLN. Aug. 25. [ Special to Tim BKE. ] The laws on the slatuto books which guar antee to colored mon all the rights under the civil rights bill have evidently been violently lently fractured In Lincoln nt least onoo nnd a test case Is to bo made which will nttract no llltlo Interest. Warrants were issued thl afternoon for the nrrmt of Dr. J. O. Everett , M. ( ! . Everett nndV. . J. Marsha , proprietors of the Hulpho-sallno sanitarium m this city. Thn comulaint was fllod by George A. Fllppln , n colored physi cian In this city. The Sulpho-sallno sani tarium Is simply n magnlftconf ( bath houso. The main feature of the Institution Is an immense swimming bath 100 foot square lined entirely with white marble. The water Is from un artesian well , nnd U warmed to an ngreeablo temperature. It Is surrounded by luxurious dressing rooms nnd from an overhanging balcony , with curved rolling' } of the flnost wood , the vis itors which nightly throng the plaoo look down upon the forms of the people swim ming beneath myriads of colored electric lltrhts. Naturally the place is the resort of ngre.it many of the best pcoulo of iho city , nd t.ho "society nights" have become reg ular features of social llfo In the Capital City.Dr. . Dr. Fllppln Is n well known colored man , & irraduato of the State university nnd a practicing physician in good stand ing. Ho wont to the sanitarium for the purpose of taxing n swim , and was received with a blunt roftml. Ho claims that ho Is being deprived of his rights under the constitu tion , and hcnco his resort tp the courts. The trial of the matter will bo awaited with con siderable interest. Am PnyliiR Tliolr Oirn Expense * . It will bo remembered that the last legis lature mndo no appropriated for carrying the maximum rate law into effect. It was doubtless the idea of the men who passed the bill that the law -would go into effect without lot or hindrance upon the part of the railroads , and such a thing ns a pro- lonecd light In the federal courts was hardly dreamed of. But the light has boon corn- nicncod and the members of the State Board of Transportation have very unexpectedly been called into court. Their frequent trips to Omaha to consult with their counsel , their traveling expenses nnd hotel bills and the expenses of preparing legal papers , has already amounted to ft considerable sum , nnd the probability that tlio case will ulti mately go to the United States supreme court makes it certain that the expenses of the board will bo pretty heavy before the matter IH llnally adjusted. So tar the members - bors of the board have paid their own ex penses out of their own pockets , and State Treasurer Hartley suites that they expect to do so until the case is fought to a finish. Ditmlmieil Ills Clork. The long standing difficulty between the deputy commissioner of labor nnd his clerk came to n focus this afternoon In a rather unoxpoctod.manner. When the clerk , Mrs. Packard , came to the ofllco she roceivcd a curt note of dismissal from the deputy com missioner Informing her tliat her services wore no longer required. Mrs. Packard Is inclined to doubt the deputy commissioner's power to remove her HO summarily and so lar has declined to accept her summary dis missal. Under the statutes the governor Is the commissioner of labor , while the man who simply performs the duties of the oDlco is the deputy. The deputy has always boon provided with a cleric over slnco the ofllc * vras created , insplto , of the fact that a clone was unnecessary , The present deputy commissioner is J. B. Enon of South Omaha. Ho received his'ap- polntment from Governor Crounso early in JVlny , ns did Mrs. Packard. She is a sister of A. E. Cady , chairman of the republican state central committee , through whoso in- llucnca she received the appointment. The mutter will doubtless bo loft to the governor for a decision. The governor is now absent from the state , but will return in a few days. The action of the deputy in dismissing his clerk was precipitated by a statement made In n morning newspaper published In tills city to the offset that Chairman Cady vls- 'Ited the state house Wednesday for the pur pose of calling the doputv to an account and insinuating that the deputy discreetly kopc out of the way. This insinuation the deputy Indignantly denies. In tlio meantime both the deputy and his clerk are at work. Buvuil from u I.I To of Hliumc. Dosdomona Raymond Is the name of a young and pretty miss scarcely 10 years of ago who was last uvoning rescued from n llfo of shnma nnd sent to bor relatives In Colorado. Night before last Chief of Police Cooper heard that a young girl was an in- irmto of ono of the questionable resorts In x this city , and ho at once visited the placo. f , The u'omnn who presided ever the mansion ' insisted that she had no such n girl there. J/ist evening about 5 o'clock the chief re ceived n letter from Mrs. A. T. Roberts , re siding at Jiuona Vista , Colo. , asking him to 11 ml the girl and send her homo. She added that she had sent a ticket to the B. & M. ncont In this city and also $5 in money with which to bear thu girl's expenses on the trip to Colorado. Enclosed in the letter was u telegram which had been sent to her by the girl , praying for God'a sake to send money to gT take her away from Lincoln , \ Armed with the dispatch the chlof wont to the resort anil found that the girl had been locked up for several du.vs In order to prevent bur oscapo. The chief was In formed that the girl had just gone to the depot. A diligent search , however , failed to IIml the girl at the depot , although the chief learned that she hud called nt the ticket oOlco and got the ticket that had been sent thcru for hor. Thorn was nothing to I'D ' but to watch the train. Tlio train from the east came in at ITD'cionk , and it was not until a law moments of its leaving time that the girl , accompanied by the pro prietress of the resort , got out , of acarringo which had boon standing by the platform all the time. Tlio girl was questioned by the chief , and said that she was going to her grandmother , Mrs. Kobcrti , nt Iluena Vista. She was a pretty girl , slight for her ago , nnd hud only been loading u Ufa of shgma but a few days. JjiimtHtur County I'opnlltti.

The rush of lomcscckers to tho'OUcrokeo ' Strip , vrhlch will bo opened to soitfomont September 10 , has begun , nnd hundreds ot men , women and children are arriving -on every Santa Fo train. About ICO people arrived on this morning's train , nnct this afternoon nnd evening fully twice that number came In. These that came by railway nro all pros perous looking people and have money with which to make imurovemonts when they Bottle on tholr claims. By actual count 133 pralrlo schooners arrived from the cast , west nnd north today and proceeded toward the Strip line , where they joined the boomers' camp. They wcro mostly from western and contra ! Kansas and southern Missouri , and In tholr wagons were all tholr household goods jancl a miscellaneous lot of supplies. The most difficult problem that now con fronts tlio prospect ivo settler Is that of keeping hold of his money. Hundreds of swindlers and confidence mon with all sorts of alluring colony and townsito schemes and gambling devices mix freely with the boomers and , trading upon tholr Innocence , . defraud them , in many cases , out of tholr whole supply of money. There's a Hush nt Caldwell. CAI.PWBI.L , Kan. , Aug. S3. This plnoo is Just beginning to experience the rush of people bent upon securing claims in the Cherokee Strip , when that country shall bo opened to settlement September 10. The prospective point of most settlers hereto fore lias been Arkansas City , but so many havogathorcd along the Cherokee Strip that live in that vicinity that It ) s doubtful if all will bo able to make a sue- cessful rush for claims from that point. As a result hundreds of people nro now being brought hero by the liock Island rail way from both the east nnd the west. This place Is nearer the line than Arkansas City and the boomers are not obliged to go out of the city. The hotels are filling up and many camps have been pitched in the public square and in vacant lots about town. The pralrlo schooners with their loads of chil dren are beginning to arrive from the west. They mostly go direct to the line , whore the wagon toiis are converted Into touts and where the homcsookors make a temporary homo whtlo awaiting the opening day. The prospective point of the people gathering hero is the land adjoining the Salt fork of the Arkansas river and the land between that stream and the Clmarron river , which is as rich ns any in the Strip. Balloon tonight at Courtland boaoh. Taking the expedition organized for the relief of Charles George Gordon , that in trepid warrior and Christian soldier , from the horde of savages in Egypt's sorvlco as a motif , "Tho Soudan } qppoalt strongly to one's love of country 4und patriotism. With a heart story deftly tj orwovon. the scones of battle and carnage are made integral parts of a well conducted melodrama. Suggestive of "Vouth , " "Ours , " and these other English' military plays whtoh have done credit to the stage , "Tho Soudan" Is . written upon much stronger Hues and is easily the best military drama , having its Jircyiuqro tbo past season. But apart from i.s , ' distinct dramatic charm.it admits of scenic possibilities of a high ardor and the mnungomont has spared no expense in adequately mounting the play. From first to last feacti sot is a picture , notably act four , whichrgivc3 [ the audience a glimp.to of the Zarobliat night , the attack upon the desert city'/tho absolute rout of the Egyptians and then the return of , the victorious- army to England nnd homo.v The march past Trafalgar square with the statue 'of Nelson and the National Art gallery well defined is ono of the strong stage pictures of our timo. With people crowding the steps of the public buildings the victorious army never marched to any moro enthusiastic applause than was accorded the "make-believo" soldiers of lust night at Boyd's theater. James Homo plays the hero , Captain Tem ple , with quiet force that shows him an actor of real merit. Second to him is the villain of the play played by Horace Lewis in a manner which justified the hisses ho received at the hands of the gallory. E. W. Morrison , gets n great deal of humor out of the part of Spoklns In love with Maggie vVilkins ( Portia Albec ) . Miss Annie Barclay , as the wroaged and persecuted heroine Nellie Temple , gave a pleasing portrayal of the gentlewoman in Its best and most exalted sense. Cora Gray , the adventuress , was capably played by Miss Harold. But the cast is generally acceptable and "Tho Sou dan" is in every way worthy the great suo- cess it had In Boston and Chicago. - Balloon tonight at Courtland boaoh. Shinned the Hoc Catcher. The police court was well filled with visitors and witnesses ycstorday morning , but notwithstanding the crush all business was attended to before the . clock struck 11 and tbo Judge then had a chance to enjoy a cigar. After the usual list of complaints against drunks and vagrants had boon filed Prosecutor Cochran was called upon by L. Wanbcckor to isauo a complaint against Jeff McDonald for assault , Wanbockor is a deputy dog catcher and yesterday morning swiped a canine belonging to McDonald. The latter claimed that ho had a receipt for the animal's tag and asked Wanbockor to go with him to his homo.

Gov't Report Baking ABSOLUTES PURE WILL \ \ NOT OBEY THE ORDER Organized Labor's Demand Treated with In difference by Board of Publlo'WorkB. EIGHT HOURS A DAY RESOLUTION IGNORED Mnjor Duloonibe Denlei thn Council' * night to lleguUte tbo Work or l' T of the Street Force After Omaha Houdt City Unll The olght-hour resolution of the city coun cil has counted for naught. The resolution was presented at a recent mooting of the city council by Mr. Muuro and was adopted , H recited the fact that owing to somany parsons being unemployed that hereafter the street commissioner only require the laborers in hla department to work eight hours each day. Mr. Munro explained that if this was done employment would bo found for more men nnd that It was both advisable and the duty of the city to do this. Major Ualcombo , the hood of the street lopartmont , said yostnrday morning that his 'orcos' were not \vorltlng by the day. He implo.VB the men and teams by tbo hour , the 'ormcr receiving 17 } and the latter 30 cents per hour. If they work ona hour ho says they rocolvo pay for that hour nnd if they work ten hours they rccolvo pay for the actual time thus ongagod. The major says thatnn olght hour day will not bo Inau- B ura tod. Ho believes that the men employed itro receiving the best pay for the class of tvorlc performed and says that the department - mont is not being conducted as a bureau for Favorites. Ho explained that under the provisions of the now charter that the Board of Public Works shall ilx the com pensation of employes of the department , which . was done last spring , and the same is being ' followed out. Ho denies the Jurisdic tion of the council in determining the number - bor of hours that the men on the streets ihall work. Kehenrlngr In th I'avlnc Case. The motion for a rehearing in the paving case before the supreme court will not bo filed until the opinion of the court is ro- colvod , The matter of securing a rehearing has been turned over to lion. Frank T. Ilan- om. who has been retained by the council to act with City Attorney Council. The only point that It is desired to cover n the rehearing will bo as to whether the : nayor and council possess the right to order a street paved without a petition from the property owners. Until the opinion of the court is fllod the attorneys cannot determine how fully that point has boon passed upon. The memorandum given out by the court did not cover that question very fully , which was probably duo to the fact that Judge I'ost was not present whan the case was submitted , and as ho promulgated the Bea trice decision the other two judges did not fool disposed to fully pass upon the ques tion. With a full bench it is expected that an opinion will bo secured , covering fully this point , which is the most important in the controversy , and that it will furnish a guide for the council in the future that will bo valuable and prevent a repetition of. the blunders which resulted in tying up the year's paving during the spring and summer months. _ Inquiring for Omnhu Ilonds. Inquiries for bonds contlnuo to bo made. Yesterday a gentleman from Weeping Water , with $1,000 in ctsh which ho desires to invest , was seeking information at the city hall on the subject of making a pur- ohnso of that amount In tbo bonds. Ho was given all the information at hand and seemed satisfied that a bettor investment could not bo maao. Ho promised to submit a proposition to take $1,000 worth within the next sixty dayi. A well known omployo of the city , who atoly came into tbo possession of $1,500 , is alsq considering the advisability of placing that amount in the bond investment. Ho regards the investment as good and safe , I and announces that in a few days he will ( take $1,500 worth. Hond * Surrendered by Harbor. O. E. Squires has , as agent for the Barber Asphalt company , turned into the city treasury ? 11,000 worth of bonds of tna city. Those bonds are old ones that have been the property of the Barber company and were placed with the treasurer by permission of the council to take the place of the 15 per cent reserve hold on streets paved some time ago , nnd upon which the guaranty has not expired , i'ho Barber company has on de posit with the treasurer nearly $100,000 In bonds of the city , which are held for the guaranty.
