BLONDIE CLARK'S ' LAST JOKE.
It Wai Not Ncurly So I'unny ATlicn tlio
Court Took tlio Matter Up.
"Blondle" Clark's little Joke caused Grant
O'Dell to bo called before Judge Keysor to
show cause why he should not be committed
for contempt of court In neglecting to obey
a restraining order granted one day last
week to prevent the sale of some property
which had been levied on execution. The
case grew out of a judgment of something
over $100 , obtained In Justice Brandos' court
by O'Dell against Elijah Stoddard and Mary
D. Stoddard. The defendants are the owners
of a farm just north of the city limits , and
early last spring they removed to Texas.
O'Dell afterward obtained his judgment to
satisfy an old claim , and as the amount was
not paid , Constable Clark levied on three
horses and other property which the de
fendants had left behind them. The Stod-
dards got wind of this and brought suit to
set aside the judgment on the ground of
Inadequate service , and obtained a restrain
ing order directing the constable not to pro
ceed with tha sale.
A few days after Clark mot the attorneys
for the Stoddards and told them ho had sold
and delivered "the property to his brother-
in-law , John Bailey , for $12.3. The attorneys
hustled back to court and "made a showing
on which O'Dell was cited to answer to the
charso-Qrcontempt.-l' > A > ldarlng | was had yes
terday and Clark explained that It was all n
joke , and the property In question was still
Intact and waiting for the case to be decided.
O'Dell was consequently released , but the
court failed to appreciate the joke , and Im
proved the occasion to somewhat severely
criticise the Joker.
AcniMxl of Holng Insnno.
The Insanity commission was In session
yesterday In Judge Scott's court room for the
purpose of passing on the case of John D.
Thomas , who was arrested Saturday. Thomas
Is quite a familiar character In Omaha. Ho
has lost a good deal of money during recent
years , and It Is claimed that his losses have
affected his brain and that he'has threatened
to kill various persons who ho Imagined
had been responsible for his trouble. About
twenty witnesses have been called In by each
side , among whom are some of the leading
lawyers and physicians of the city.
Only two witnesses weru examined on
account of the absence of Mr. Thomas'
counsel , and the bonul adjourned until tills
afternoon nt 2 o'clock. The testimony
taken failed to substantiate the allegations
that had been made that Thomas had made
threats against those who he Imagine ? ! had
Injured him.
County Iiitctfstuil In Tlicsp.
County Attorney Knley Is preparing the
briefs In the case of Kellar and Doano against
the county for consideration by the supreme
court. This Is the test case in the old Doug
las county lot transactions which was de
cided adversely to the county In the dis
trict court. There are several similar cases
on the same Issue , so that tiib entlro amount
Involved Is not far from $250.000.
The briefs In the case of Joseph Taylor
against the county will bo transmitted to the
supreme court today. Taylor sued for $5,000
damages on account of the change of grade
on Leavenworth street and obtained a ver
dict for $500. The case was .appealed and
will soon be decided.

Candidates for tha Hoard of I'ubllo Works
Hemming Niimrr um.
The number of candidates who are
anxiously looking for the nomination of a
member of the Board of Public Works by the
mayor Tuesday night has been materially In
creased during the past few days. Up to the
time when Mr. Schrum's appointment was re
jected by the council scarcely more than a
half-dozen applicants were scheduled for con
sideration. Apparently the Held saw hope
ahead when the first appointment was side
tracked , and since then applications have
poured In thick and fast. At present there
are nearly thirty applications on file at the
mayor's olllco. Among the more recent can
didates arc Philip Andres. L. P. .McGinn , D.
Kcnnlston. J. 0. Corby. John P. Daley , F ,
E. Bailey , Captain John O'Donahuo , John
Thlcssen , Levl Bllckcnsderfer and Sam
Macleod ,
While each ot these Is using every effort to
convince the mayor that lie has an In
contestable claim to consideration , It la
rumored about the city hall that tha name
that will be presented Tuesday night has
never been spoken of In connection with the
position. The candidates themselves are not
disposed to give credence to the report , but
It Is nevertheless quietly k'lven out that the
nominee will bo a surprise party to the coun
cil.

At noon yesterday August Grl'mm , a farmer
residing In the vicinity of Elkhorn , this
county , met a couple of highwaymen right
In the heart ot the city , and nil that saved
him from being robbed was a pair of good ,
stout legs and the power to propel them ,
Grimm had coino to the city early In the
morning for the purpose of hauling out a
load of freight for ono ot the Elkhorn mer
chants. Ho had loaded up his wagon and
had driven Into the alley between Hartley
and Howard and Thirteenth and Four
teenth streets. Thcro ho had unhitched and
had put his horses Into a feeding stable
close by , after which ho had gone up town
to do some trading.
Just at noon , with his arms full of bundles ,
ho walked up the alley for the purpose of
depositing his load In the wagon , after which
ho Intended to hitch up and start for home.
As ho turned around , after having de
posited the bundles In the wagon , he was
confronted by two men , ono. of whom had a
'pistol , which ho pointed nt Grimm's head.
While this was going on the second man
grabbed the farmer by the throat , exclaim
ing , "D n you , give up your money , and do
It d n quick , too. " J
The man from Elkhorn does not lay any
claim to being brave , but Instead of giving
up his wealth ho gave a yell that was heard
for blocks away , and breaking loose struck
a gait that would make any professional
sprinter turn green with envy. Ho ran to
the police station , where he gave an accurate
description of the two men and then re
turned to the spot with a couple of detectives
who were detailed to work up the case. A
careful search was made In the vicinity , but
no trace ot the highwaymen was discovered ,
though It was afterward learned that two
men answering their description had crossed
the bridge and had hurried on toward Coun
cil Bluffs a short time after the assault had
been made upon Grimm.

R. S. Berlin of the Missouri river com
mission left for St. Louis yesterday for the
purpose of protecting the arrangements for
the expenditure of the $75,000 appropriated
for protecting the river front In the vicinity
of this city.
Mr. Berlin , In speaking of the matter of
river bank protection , says that he was of
the opinion that the full amount of the ap
propriation would be expended this season
and that the work would begin within the
next th'rty days. Most , If not all , of the
work would be done between Florence and
the Union Pacific bridge. The first place
where the commission would direct its at
tention , Mr. Berlin said , would bo at Flor
ence , where an attempt would be made to
prevent the river from cutting away and
leaving the waterworks plant high and dry
upon a sandbar. After this matter was
disposed of Mr. Berlin thought that some
work would be done In the vie nlty of Flor
ence lake In order to prevent the river from
cutting through the low lands and flowing
Into Courtland lake.

Another Skeleton Pound Under tlio Dodge
Street School lliilldlnir.
The mystery surrounding the finding of a
skeleton under the Dodge street school
house a few days ago was greatly Increased
yesterday afternoon by the finding ot another
within two feet of the place where the first
was discovered. These remains are evi
dently those of a woman , and a string of
amber beads were found around the neck of
the frame. There Is an old trap door over
the place where the bodies were lying , and
It looked as If it had been disturbed at some
time since It had been nailed down.
There seems to be no doubt but that the
body was burled there at the same time tha
other ono was , and that one was a man and
the other a woman. A surgeon who exam
ined the bones of the skeletons was of the
opinion that the bodies nad been in the
ground six or seven years. The police will
begin a thorough Investigation at once.

( lovcrnmcnl tu Drsliit.
JACKSON , Miss. , July 1C. The Missis-
slppl legislature nt Its lust session passed
an act authorizing the governor , tlio auditor
anil tlio treasurer to Issue treasury warrants
In denominations of $5 sliould It become
necessary to tide over the financial crisis.
The Issue was limited to $200,000. It was
the Intention o ( the legislature to 1m vo the
warrants pass as money nil over the state.
Immediately after the passage of the act
the state auditor contracted with the St.
Louis Hank Koto company for the printing
of the warrants and the first Installment of
$50,000 was delivered to the state treasury
and placed In circulation a few weeks ago.
Governor Stano has since received a dis
patch from General llazcn , chief of the
United States secret service at Washington ,
demanding that the governor send to him
all of the unsigned warrants that have not
pccn placed In circulation. Mr. llazcn
telegraphed the St. Louis Hank Note com
pany that the plates bo turned over to the
government. In an Interview Governor
Stone stated that he would not comply with
Chief Ilazen's demand In any particular
and that the Issue of the special warrants
will be continued until the full Issue of
$200,000 Is completed. The state olllclals
regard Hazcn's demands as an unwarranted
Interference and wilt not treat It seriously.
They say that the demands were based on
the assumption that these special warrants
resemble too closely United States currency
and violate the laws of the United States.
This Is denied by Governor Stone , who says
the act of the legislature Is approved by the
best legal authorities In the country. The
nrdltor has telegraphed the St. Louis Dank
Note company not to pay any attention to
Hazcn's demands.
ST. LOUIS. July 1G. Inquiries at the offlco
of the St. Louis Dank Note company re
vealed the fact that the entire Issue of war
rants has been completed and shipped to the
Mississippi authorities. It Is , therefore , Im
possible for the company to comply with the
demand of Chief llazcn and he has been so
notified.
The plates from which the warrants were
printed are In the possession of the Great
Western Printing company of Chicago , for
which company the St. Louis corporation
acted as agent In this Instance. The St.
Louis company has been directed by Gov
ernor Stone not to surrender the plates ,
but at the same time the local branch of the
secret service has made an Imperative de
mand for them , acting under Chief Ilazen's
orders. What action may be taken In the
matter will , the St. Lou's Bank Note com
pany oIHclals say , be directed by the Great
Western company , who have , however , been
advised of Governor Stone's telegraphic In-
structloni.

Luck of Funds I'rcvrnt * mi Increase of
I'orco This Yptir.
At the meeting of the Board of Fire and
Police Commissioners la-t night It was de
cided to sppolnt no more police officers this
year. The finance committee has been In
vestigating the condition of the funds set
aside for the fire and police departments
and report that there Is a balance of
131,100.99 In the fire fund for tl > o mainte
nance of the department for the ensuing
six months. The balance remaining In the
police fund Is $48,027.57 , and h only suffi
cient to defray the expenses unt.l the end of
the fiscal year.
The Central Labor union presented a set
of resolutions to the commissioners con
demning the action of Chief Seavey In offer
ing to send 1,000 men belonging to the Chiefs
of Police union to Chicago to assist in sup-
pre-slng the strikers during the recent diffi
culties between Pullman and the A. U. U.
They further condemned the alleged action
of the chief In sending officers to meet Ho-
gan's Commonweal army at the East Omaha
bridge and attempting to force them to land
on the Iowa side of the river. The mem
bers of the Central Labor union committee
asked the board to Investigate these acts of
the chief , and If they found him guilty as
charged , to remove him from the head of
the police department. The matter was re
ferred to the committee on men and dis
cipline.
The charges against the conduct of Officer
Stiles by William Shiner turned out to be
groundle-s , and before the trial was ended
the officer sought to show that they were
Inspired by malice , and that SIdner had
been hired by Louis Shields to file these
charges against him. About a year ago
Stiles arrested Shields for assault , and the
man then mads threats that he would get
the officer fired from the force. Ofllcer
Stiles had Mr. Gulll , manager of the Annex
saloon , as one of his witnesses , and Gulll
testified that SIdner came Into his place
about six weeks ago and said to him that
If he would testify against Olllcer Stiles
there was money In it for him ( SIdner ) .
Ho said that there wera parties who had It
In for Stiles , and they would pay him well
If ho got the ofllcer discharged from the
force. SIdner told him that ho knew noth
ing personally against the offlc'er , but that
he was after the money.

While sleeping In his room at the Dellone

of a porch climber , who got away with a

of the light-fingered gentry raised the
window , entered the room and departed with
the clothing , which contained the valuables.

i Tlio True History of Pullman. 1
While traveling in a box car , stretched on the bare
floor , Pullman lay awake trying to discover a way to
fall asleep. He reasoned with himself thus : If a man
who sleeps is a sleeper , why could not a slccucr make
all men sleep ? lie struck it and the next day he
started with a net balance of 15c to Jackson Park
at Chicago , and grot the first sleeper he came across ,
bought him a beer , and set him in motion : They say
Pullman has been after sleepers ever since. Bye and bye lie
started a stock company to Pull-man's wages down and
Pull-man up on upper berths at pull-leg prices an I
now all people of Chicago can't sleep on account of it-
