When bankrupt stocks of shoes or any other line of goods sell at a premium it begins to look as if ( here is more money in
handling a bankrupt stock , both for profit and advertising purposes , than straight , legitimate goods. Now we are not in the
[ bankrupt business , nor do we intend to begin now. But we will convince the people Monday that as far as prices are con"

CHARLESTON , W. Va. . March 3. A tele-
jDeceived by Governor McCorklo from
( Division Superintendent J. M. Gill , now at
'C.oulburg , twelve miles above hero , on the
[ Chesapeake & Ohio , states that tVo strikers
from the mines near there nro congregating
Jn large numbers swearing they will burn
jllio Chesapeake & Ohio bridge on the branch
j-oad that runs from Coalburc to the Acme
mines. The object In burning the bridge Is
jto prevent coal being shipped from the Acme
tallies and thus stopping the miners from
{ working. Immediately upon receipt of thp

.three more companies of military with orders'
Jo proceed at once to Cabin Creek. Sheriff

CqalburB and Acme had been flrod and was
totally destroyed.

t INQUEST OVER ONE VICTIM.
riVi'INNVrt March 3. The Times-Star
ijir lal from Eagle says Coroners Adklns and
Lawrence are both Investigating the caiise of
Tom Adklns' death. The victim lived in ono
county and was shot In another , dying from
the effects of his wounds at his homo. The
body was this afternoon brought1' from
Hendley , whore It had been taken for burial ,
to Eagle and Is In the possession of the
authorities , being strongly guarded nt the
depot. Previous to the arrival. Coroner
Adklns Impannoled a jury that accompanied
him to view the body , then proceeded in
secret session to take evidence. Dr. Lard
examined the body In the presence of Coroner
ner Adklns and the jury and n record of the
evidence was taken. The bullet had not been
extracted and the technical cause of death
was not reported.
The second witness was Denjamln Done ,
who was also shot In the back , but not
seriously wounded. Ho was standing behind
Adklns when ho fell. Ho saw him drop , but
his evidence could not bo learned.
Prosecuting Attorney Dillon is co-operating
with Coroner Lawrence , Impanncllng a jury
that will sit with open doors for tha re
porters of newspapers at least. The two
Juries will bo about a mile apart. There Is
considerable excitement over the collision of
the coroners , as it is conceded that It will
at least a week to take all the testimony
that Is wanted , with a view to arresting over
eighty men who were identified by the detec
tives.

"Twelfth Night , " that wondrously fine bit
of Shakespeare's Imagining , was the bill last
night at Floyd's , Miss Marlowe appearing as
Viola , ono of the bard's most complex char
acters. Nothing could bo moro artistic nor
more rounded withal than the gllmpso one
gets of Viola through Miss Marlowe's inter
pretation. In point of fact It Is this charm
ing woman's plcco do resistance and Is
worthy of a place alongside the Isabel of
Adelaide Nollson , the Portia of Ellen Terry
and the Rosalind of Modjcska. Rare It Is In
these latter century days that ono is culled
upon to readjust the Impression formed of
some of Shakespeare's models , but Miss
Marlowo has , by the consummate art of
which she Is mistress , accentuated the old
tradition of the part and has given to the
world of theatergoers n perfect Interpretation
of this Idyl of "Sweet Will. " Her concep
tion of the character , although following
the accepted traditions , was so full of keen
appreciation of the role and so finely wrought
out that It left nothing to the Imagination.
She was the poet's Ideal Viola , and when the
history of the stage of today comes to bo
written Miss Marlowe's Viola will stand star-
gemmed among the beautiful , the loved mem
ories of the theater.
Associated with Julia Marlowe , who Is the
hope of the Shakespearean drama , are a
number of exceedingly capable people , Eu
genia "Woodward coming first by reason of
sterling worth as an actress "who has
played many parts. " As Lady Olivia this
most conscientious player was particularly
well cast , portraying the character with a
charm that left llttlo to bo desired. Walter
Halo was In his element ns the Duke Or-
Hlno , while the veteran H. A. Weaver , sr. ,
gave life , color and Intelligence to the unc
tuous Sir Toby Molch. Malvollo. however , la
not In Henry JowtHt's lino. The exaggerated
manner of the man , his pompous and oven
arrogant assumption of authority and his
profound egotism make the character one
of the most dllllcult to portray. It needs
a man full of eccentricities , to play the
part and Mr. Jowott Is too manly a man
to play the major dome of Olivia's house
hold , with any great degree of success. Mr ,
Jewett Is essentially a romantic lover ami
Malvollo could hardly bo catalogued In that
way. Edwin Howard was a colorless Se
bastian , not oven looking like- the gentle
young player whom ho was supposed to
closely resemble , and which like- the "Com
edy of Errors , " hinges entirely 11)1011 ) the
mistaken Identity of the characters ,
The play was right fairly staged , although
now and then It could bo seen that the
stage manager was at his wit's ends to
know not what to do with his scenes , no
tably the setting of the cellar In Olivia's
house , wherein Sir Toby , Aquccheek , the
clown , ami Mary have their Innings over
the well brewed punch. In this Instance-
the interior of a prison was used with
throne dm Ira and a nineteenth century
table aa component parts , somewhat an
achronistic , hut It served. Hut the atreet
lu Verona which had done duty the night
before to be given as a street ill Illyrla ,
and with the same apothecary's sign hanging
upon the outer wall , was going a step too
far , even with an Omaha audience.
WAGE SCHEDULE CONFERENCE.
American Itullwny Union Seleels Its lioprc-
henliitlvon Other I'Viiturri.
Interest in the coming conference between
President S. H. H. Clark and the employes
of the Union Pacific regarding the wage
schedules is increasing as the tlmo grows
nearer for the conference to convene. Al
ready the different trades are Casting about
for available men to represent the employes
In the conference , which is recognized by
them as promising results far reaching in
their character. The American Railway
union at its recent meeting at Cheyenne
appointed as a conference committee to rep
resent the wishes of 4,000 men , consisting of
ono representative for each division of the
Union Pacific system , 'the following : Ne
braska , George Miller , Omaha ; Wyoming , W.
I' , Downey , Evanston ; Idaho and Utah , E.
L. Brlggs , Glen's Ferry ; Colorado , L. E.
Hoberllng , Denver ; Pacific division , James
Mlrnugh , Portland , Ore. In addition to
these men President Eugene Debs
ut the American Railway union
and Vice President Howard will also
attend the conference and glvo the benefit
of their largo experience to the men who
have been chosen to represent the union in
the conference. The other trades will prob
ably-bo represented by tholr executive com
mittees and the federated trades by tholr
officers. There will bo In addition to a
great number of employes called Into Omaha
by the conference a number of attorneys who
have made the labor situation a profound
study , and any legal questions that may
arise will bo referred to these men for arbi
tration Insofar as the labor situation goes.
Whllo no program of the conference has
been promulgated , It Is understood that each
branch of labor will have Its day In court ,
KO to speak , and the prospects for 'a love
feast are very bright , although there Is a
belief prevalent UfaTTm amended schedule
will bo put In. In the event an agreement
cannot bo reached it Is thought the circuit
court , presided over by Judges Caldwell and
banborn , will assist the receivers out of
their dilemma by ordering the employes to
conform to a reduced schedule or peaceably
leave the service of the company.
President Clark , who Is still In New York ,
will , It Is thought , hnvo the assistance of
General Manager Dickinson and possibly Re
ceivers Anderson and Coudert will come on
to assist Mr. Clark In dealing with the men.

Standing room was at n premium In the club

Chapter jrci-tlng DIsniKse * Wlilttler

The campaign for the coming spring elec
tion Is getting pretty well shaped , and It
is now almost certain that two candidates
for mayor will be Ed Johnston on the demo
cratic ticket and John Schultz on the cit
izens ticket. If there Is a third candidate
In the field it will bo Mayor Walker. That
gentleman has- not given It out , however ,
that he will run , but he has friends who are
insisting that he make tha race ,
During the last two weeks citizens clubs
have been organized In ovary ward In South
Omaha. From these cluba will bo selected
the delegates to a mass convention , which
will bo held about the 10th , when a full
ticket will be placed In the field.
The democrats have not paid much atten
tion to the organization of ward clubs. They
have one general club , which meets once n
week , and Us membership has been largely
increased within the last ten days. At
each meeting of the club stirring speeches
are made by whoever Is Invited. This club
Is what might bo called an administration
club , for HOMO are Invited to join unless
they are known to bo directly In line and
endorse the acts of the present powers.
Although It is generally conceded that Mr.
Johnston will bu the nominee , there are
democrats in the ranks who will oppose his
candidacy with much vigor. When J. A.
Walters was n candidate for mayor It Is
claimed that Mr. Johnston opposed him. Mr.
Walters now has his knlfo out for Mr.
Johnston and Is willing to. wager that thn
gentleman will not bo nominated. On the
other hand , there are democrats who nay
that no other name will eutmJ'beforo the con
vention. Next to Mr. ' Johmfton In strength ,
perhaps , Mr. James A. IilaJn ) | | , the strongest
democrat. Ills frlqnds huvq not given up the.
Idea.of placing "Jim" In jtlic , field.
The city clerk's ofllco has a salary of $100
a year attached to It , awlr-whlta the salary
Is not much of a drawlngtoanl : , there are sov-
tral gentlemen who are l4lfl.K their pipes for
the position. In the doniQcraj e ranks arc Ed
Kane , Andy Gallagher , .Carles Herdllcka ,
Harry Christie and J. Afa'l Uurton lllco ,
Del i'lorco and E. II. Itftferts will struggle
tor the. nomination on Uiri'fl'Atzons ticket.
For treasurer the democrats will nominate
Thomas Hector , the pres yit , Incumbent , and
the other nominee will bo chosen from a list
of six or seven. It proipujvs , to bo a lively
