' CHICAGO , July 31. Mayor Hopkins wired
Governor Altgeld at noon today asking him
to recall eight companies of the First regi
ment of the Illinois National Guard. This
order removes three of the six companies now
at Pullman and leaves but one company on
the Illinois Central tracks , that at Bast
Hammond. The mayor said that ho felt
Batlsfled that the three companies left at
Pullman could maintain order. The Second
regiment , stationed at the stock yards , will
bo loft there for the present and the mayor
refused to say when the remaining com
panies at Pullman will bo withdrawn. The
action on the part of the mayor was the
result of a conference between himself , Vice
1'resldent Wlckes of the Pullman company
and Attorney General Orendorf of the
Illinois National Guard. Mr. Wlckes did
not expect trouble , stating that the com
pany was making no effort to secure new
men and that ho expected the old employes
to eventually return to their places.

, BAN FRANCISCO , July 31. The firemen
nnd trainmen who left the service of the
Southern I'aclllc company at Sacramento at
the beginning of the strike hope to soon return -
(
turn to their old positions. Delegates of
* old employes and Sacramento merchants have
held consultations with General Manager
- Towno. Towno received his visitors cor
dially , He stated that the company was
willing to accept applications f om former
employes and that unless .such employes had
been engaged In lawlessness their applica
tions would be considered without prejudice.
It Is thought the company is willing to reemploy -
employ these men provided they show re
gret for the past and offer to refrain from
striking In the future. The engineers are
anxious for the return of their old firemen
to work. The engineers say their new
helpers "are not able to keep the engines
hot" going over the mountains.

"LAST DAYS "OF POMPEII. "
ArrangFim-ntB for riilnn'x lllg Attraction to
Ho Presented In Oinnlm.
The prospect that Omaha will bo able to
Invite her friends In Nebraska and western
Iowa to witness the great spectacle Illus
trating the' "Last Days of I'ompell' . ' are
brightening dally , nothing now remaining to
bo done but the closing of a few final prop-
osltlbns. The financial part of the work has
been well handled. In the first place
Paine , the great pyrotechnic artist , who
owns the spectacle , asks $15,000 for placing
the picture before the public for twenty-
eight nights. The Courtland beach people
will expend $0,003 In advertising the specta
cle. Mr. I'alno has agreed to accept the
first $12,000 secured from admissions , then
the beach penble will reimburse themselves
for the advertising out of the next $ C.OOO ,
and I'alne will take the final payment of
$3,000 due him after the expenses have been
paid. The Courtland beach people ask the
citizens of Omaha for a cash guarantee of
$5,000. This amount has practically been
secured , about $1,000 yet remaining to bo
subscribed. Commissioner Utt of the Com
mercial club , who is assisting In the enter
prise , Is confident that the rest of the
guarantee will be made up within a few
hours , although ho regrets the fact that
some of the Omaha Interests which will be
largely benefited are extremely backward
about contributing to the guarantee.
The railroad companies will fit an ex
cursion rate to prevail during the entire
three weeks. This will enable thousands
of people to visit Omaha , transact their fall
business with the wholesale merchants of
this city , bring their families with them
and witness the great spectacle at their
leisure. In addition , excursion trains will
be run dally , permitting many other thous
ands to witness the greatest picture over
painted In fire , and return to their homes
the same night. The street railway com
panies have agreed to make a round trip
rate of 15 cents from the city to Courtlaiid
beach and return. The East Omaha com
pany will operate twenty trains of two cars
each at one mlnuto intervals. This ar
rangement , It Is believed , will fully care for
the thousands who wish to reach the city
after the close of the performance.
Commissioner Utt Is sanguine of the suc
cess of the enterprise from a commercial
point of view. Ho believes that Omaha
should offer some attraction to the thous
ands of retail merchants of the state who
come to Omaha to purchase their fall stocks
of goods. The amount of money expended
by thousands of visitors dally for three
weeks' will more than compensate , the busi
ness .men bf- the clty for the small amount
tli ay contribute to the guarantee fund.
THREE OF k KIND.
I'nmons Ifloot- Wheeled Locomotives and
T/iclr Work.
The 999 Is still the queen of all locomotives ,
saya the Albany Argus. Her run of 430 %
miles In 425 % mlnuts stands as a world's
record , and her mile In 32 seconds has never
been equaled In this or foreign countries.
But It Is moro than probable that within the
next few months the -New York Central
olllcials will order one of those records
broken by another engine , and then will glvo
the 999 an opportunity to enter into the
record-breaking business again.
Engines 888 and 870 came out of the New
York Central's shops at West Albany , where
the 999 was built. The 870 will bo re-
chrlstencd and will ba known as the 777.
They are now running regularly on the Eni-
plro State express , and the company Is ex
perimenting with them by running them first
on one division and then another , under dif
ferent engineers.
At present the 999 takes the Empire State
express from New York to this city , the
888 from Albany to Syracuse , and the 870
from Syracuse to Duffalo. The engineers of
the three flyers are as follows : On the 999 ,
Archie Buchanan and Dennis Cassln ; on the
888 , Thomas Dormady and Edward Chase ;
on the 870 , James Foyle and Matthew Ilea-
gan.
gan.Tho other day Mr. Chase left Albany with
the Emplro State express , thirteen minutes
late. The distance , ninety-live miles , was
made In 9C minutes. Mr. Uormady says ho
made the run from Utlca -Albany In 90
minutes the other day. Continuing ho said.
"I made- thirteen miles In ten minutes last
week , and I could have kept up that speed
all day. . Considering the run of nlnety-
flvo miles In 90 minutes , I believe that 1
could m ke 100 miles In 175 minutes. That
may sound like bragging to some people ,
but I am sincere in making the statement.
tor I made the nlnety-flve-milo run without
the lea.sl bit of trouble , and could have dona
it much quicker. "
The difference between the speed which an
ordinary engine can make and the average
speed of the 999 Is shown In a run made by
that engine last Thursday. The engine left
Syracuse one hour nnd ten minutes Into with
the St. Louis express. The train consisted
of cloven cars nnd had two stops to make ,
one at Utlpa and the other at Schncctady.
The train arrived In Albany on time , the
time having been made up In a run of 153
miles. . _

Hattlo Butman , 7 years of ago , daughter
of Charles Butman of Beverly , Mass. , Is
an Inmate of the Beverly hospital with two
broken Jawa. A number of percussion caps
exploded In her mouth , shattering her jaws
and cutting her palate off. Since then she
lias been lingering betwpen life nnd death
and there Is but little chance of her re
covery. The attending physician has not
been able to sot the bones. It Is his Inten
tion to try and wire the broken bones and
allow them to knit It possible. If blood
poisoning does not sot In she Is liable to pull

New York Sun , Recently the porter in one
of the Fourteenth stieet sloie ? found n pock-
itbook In oiio of the waste baskets In the
adies' parlor. When opened at the su
perintendent's desk It was found to contain
a check for ? 50 and a number of in tie trln-
; ets. The superintendent hunted tip the ad
dress of the- person to whom the check was
nnde payable , und wrote to her. She came
lottn the next diy and proved her owner

Tli , fact Is that the really expert pickpocket
and sneak thief whp works the dry goods
stores will take nothing except cash and
valuable Jewelry. He will not take the rlak
of detection which the ordalnary tlilct does.
Checks , trinkets and small articles of no

pocketbook was taken from her at a snell

away as BOOH as the theft had been com-
nltted , came UOIMI here mid examined the
locketbook , took out thn cash , which , I be-
love , amounted to JfiO or $70 , and threw the

very successful. The ordinary thief goes
around grabbing here and there , and walls

That shown the superiority of the oxpeil

IiS ) : MOINF.S , In. . July 31. ( Special Tele
gram to The Bee. ) ( Julio a number of dele'
gates to the democratic state convention
which meets here tomorrow , have arrived
but It Is not expected that not more than
half of the 1,125 members of the convcn
HUM will attend. Very few of the alleged
candidates for nominations nro here , ami
there will bc no contests for any of them. .
(
Indeed , the convention will do well If 11
succeeds In getting the nominees to accept. .
Those who are on the ground nro mostly
office holders , and they attempt to nppcni
sanguine , but the most of them privately
admit that this Is not a good democratic
year and that there Is no hope for them In
Iowa. Hon. Edward Campbell , the Nester
of the party In Iowa , In nil Interview today
predicted republican victory by anywhere
from 75.000 to 100,000 plurality.
It Is stated this ovrnlng that n movement
Is on foot to defeat Governor Boles as per
manent chairman of the convention , on the
ground that the state central commltUe ex
ceeded Its ewer In rejecting him. Whlla there
Is considerable feeling In the matter , It Is
not believed the matter will be carried that
far. An effort Is being made by
the leaders to secure nn amicable
settlement of the DCS Molnes
postofllce controversy so as to Insure an
unopposed endorsement of President Cleve
land's administration. Colonel filbocrk re
fuses to accept anything but n first-class
appointment In recognition of the elements
he represents. Dr. Fletcher Howard of
Sheldon will succeed C. I ) . Ftillcti as chair
man of the state central committee , and J.
J , Richardson will be returned to the
national committee. President Cleveland's
administration will be endorsed nnd n point
In the platform will be made against Gorman
and his followers.
A conference has b"cn had to see what
stand the party will take as to the republi
can mulct ti x. but nothing was arrived at.
Ono democrat , prominent In his parly's
ranks , Bald that the platform would be as
silent as the republican platform Is on that
subject. As to stiver no one wants to pay
anything for fear of the construction which
Is liable to be. placed on the wording. Great
care will bo taken In the platform committee
room with this subject , here Is talk of a
resolution condemning fusion with Industrial
populists. One of the most prominent demo

Jones and Brown nro neighbors and each
of them hns a pretty wife , which each of
them Is prnud of. Not long ago they were
discussing the ladles , nnd Jones said he had
the prettiest wife In town , says the Detroit
Free I'ress.
"I think mlno Is , " Brown asserted.
"I know mine Is , " said Jones.
"And I say mine K" retorted Brown.
This \uis continued until one called the
other 11 llnr , and then they clinched nnd
rolle'd o\cr und clawed and spit In great
shape , until somebody put n stop to It , anil
they agreed to go homo and leave the deci
sion to Mrs Jones and Mrs. Brown.
They fuund the ladles talking across the
fence and at once presented their grievance
for settlement. The ladles looked the two
dilapidated specimens over.
"Will , " Euld Mrs. Jones , "what do you
think , Mrs. Brown ? "
"I think , " replied Mrs. Brown promptly ,
"that your husband was right. What do
you think ? "
"There. " snorted Jones to Brown , "what
did I tell you ? "
"I think. " replied Mrs. Jones to Mrs ,
Blown , "that your husband was right. "
"There , " yelled Jones , "what did I toll
you ? " and they would have clinched again
but their wives dragged them Into tholr
respective houses and turned the hose on
them. _

Sliili iniN : of Thought.
Detroit Free I'ress : It Is easier to marry
than It Is to love.
Man's mind to him a kingdom 1s. whllo
woman's heart Is that to her ,
A pitch on the seat of n poor man's
trousers may be honester than the crow'n
nn n king's head.
There may be charity without religion ,
but there can bo no religion without charily.
Tears that come easy , go ousy. Dltttp ,
'love.
'love.Don't
Don't nurse a good Intent ; give It Im
mediate exercise.
Man's ycstciday should be his proudest
n-nument.
A bad lioy is condensed cusscilncgs ,
A woman bus n light to change her mind
often , because she can't change her heart.
llud Itc.iM.n to Until Him.
Texas Sittings : "Oh , Charles , let us turn
and gj off Eoino other way ; them Is that
bad linn following us , " said a Dallas lady
In her own husband , with whom she was
walking.
"Who Is the fellow ? "
"Why , ho IB the man who was so near
marrying me bforo I met yon. I Just hate
him. "
"By J'we , so do I. "
"You ? "
"Yes , I could strangle him to death the

"Von don't know him. How can you hate
him ? "
"Ho didn't marry you. Icn't that canst
enough to muko me walluw In his blood ? "
