The lale of a gay deceiver of women , love
turned'Into ' hatred and misplaced affection
avenging ltscf | by darting out to hunt the
trail oJ a miscreant to a trust was spread
upon the records of the courts of this county
yesterday. It encompasses a man who has
succeeded , within the short space of a year
nnd a half , In raising himself to a position
among the local -100.
He was petted and reared In the bosom of
German society , but If the story of a recent
arrival from foreign shores may ba taken
tor truth , ho Is a bigamist.
Bwect revenge for disappointed love , broken
promises und distrust actuate the victim lo
call him sucli ul least. Not lor m'nny a day
have such choice morsels ol scandal Involved
a prominent man In his circles. Tor some
days It has furnished food to be relished by
his acquaintances ,
The subject of tills wrath of a woman Is
Edward Schmelfcr , the publisher of the
Omaha Daily Tribune. Under oath It Is
charged that he U the husband of two living
wives , one of whom Is still a resident of the
beautiful capital ol Austria , and the other , as
Is well known , an Omaha lady. In addition
to this It Is further alleged that numerous
broken feminine hearts are carrying around
with them pledges unredeemed , and all be
cause they allowed themselves to listen to
the sweet sayings of an apparent gentleman.
Altogether this man's life Is kald to have
been an adventurous one In the eld home.
Several weeks ago a comely woman arrived
hero from Chicago , making Inquiries ns to
the location of the Tribune odlce. Her
sudden appearance there l * < ild to have
caused a commotion , especially since she was
supposed to reign serenely over the pots anil
frying pans on a range In the back part of a
restaurant In far off Vienna. Her untimely
arrival Is now the cause of a $5,000 $ breach
of promise suit which has been Instituted In
the courts of Douglas countv. Mr.
Schmelser , who , since his residence
here , has performed nt least one
political acrobatlo ftat , landed here In the
last part of 1802. His business was that of
selling hibcot powders , and later on he dis
posed of cockroach traps to unsuspecting
customers until lie gained the good graces
of the widow of a deceased German , who ,
during his lifetime , had amasted quite a
fortune.
Schmelser then discarded his former com
panions and rose to the dignity of a news
paper publisher , a business wtilcli he claimed
to have followed In his native country.
Aside from a change of politics he has pur
sued the even tenor of his way. enjoying
the good things which came to him by his
last marriage until the avenging spirit ap
peared In the form of Miss Oelger. Her
affidavit , wlilch Is herewith published , tells
the entlro story. This document U as fol
lows :
HOW SHI3 WAS DETIIAYED.
Anna Gclger. a native of Austria and of
lojwful age , being duly sworn , upon her oath
deposes and says :
"During the year 1S82 I was a resident
of the city of Vienna and employed as cook
at the Margarettan hotel. Here I received
attentions from a man who was a patron
of that hostelry and who called hlmtelf Ed
ward Sclimclser. Under the prelenEO of
being single and engaged In the trade of
book agent he gained my confidence , The
cpurtshlp which followed lasted for some
tfnio and ciuled finally In bethrothal. 1'lann.
originating with Mr , Schmelser , were laid as
to our future married stale. Ho Impressed
upon mo the necessity of beginning under
the most moderate conditions , In which I
acqu'csced , alleging as reasons that he was
endeavoring to set himself up In business.
In order to accomplish this purpose as speed
ily as possible , and umljr the promUe of the
Immediate consummation of our marriage , he
besought mo to advance the turn of COO
florins from my savings , which were tlio
slow accumulations of years of hard toll
and Incessant labor , and thp result of frugal
habits. Confiding by nature , I believed
Implicitly In my betrothed hus
band , who artfully turned this
to his advantage , gaining my consent to
such an advance , This was advanced to him
during the latter part of the mouth of June ,
1$02. The money was not given to him ,
however , until the suave manners , wily
tricks and numerous misrepresentations ,
which Edward Schmelser used , ho evidently
understanding Ilia weaknesses of a loving
nnd trusting woman , ruined me. I
was led to believe that our mar
ried life would be happy. Suc
ceeding In his said designs , he shortly
thereafter Informed me affectionately that
It had become , necessary , before establishing
the business spoken of , for him lo undertake
a business trip to Lelpzlc , Germany , which ,
would absent him about eight days. He
went but never returned to his natlvo
land. Neither did 1 ECO him until a few-
short weeks ago here In Omaha , nor did
I up to that time receive a cent of the
money so vilely extracted from me. Shortly
afer , ( his sudden departure , as above , from
Vienna I learned from reliable sources that
my betrothed had absconded to America. I
thereupon Instituted proceedings against
him In Vienna. A letter- written by mo
caused a visit ol his brother , who occupies
a responsible c ( Tidal position there.
NOT THE ONLY VICTIM.
"From hla lips I learned that It was not the
Only person duped and left by
Edward Schmolscr , but ( hat a law
ful wlfo was far more of a
victim In affection and worldly goods than
myself. That lady , who resides In Hcr-
nals , Anna ( lass ? , a suburb of Vienna , with
tears In her ryes , lamenting her fate , Im
parted to onn of my relatives the Informa
tion that most of her Inheritance had been
dispelled by the husband , who had now
deserted her. I was also apprised that other
unsuspecting young women had been en
snared by Schmelser. In the action at
law which I had caused to bo begun against
him , the Bald Edward Schmelser , who Is
now the solo owner and publisher Qf
the Omnlm German Dally Tribune , a war
rant of arrest and Immediate apprehension
was , Issued out of the proper court , but the
officers failed to locate the Individual , oo
Hint the document remains still in their
ha'hds and the culprit at large enjoying his
Jricdom. Ttie fruitless search on the part
of the officers determined me to start on the
trdll myself. I sailed for New York In the
spring of 1M)3. ) There I received Informa
tion that the object of my trip was In Chicago
cage , Proceeding thither I searched for him
diligently , being aided by a detective whom
I employed until my financial means com
pelled me to desist. .My entlro savings ,
Amounting In the relghbornool to 2,100 florins ,
I have expended In this way , Without
money , 1 sought In Chicago a , situation In
which I remained until I left for Omaha
not long slnco. Shortly after my arrival
hero t discovered from a newspaper article
that Edward Schmelser was a resident of
this city. I confronted the publisher at his
omen in tlio I.auge block. I demanded from
him the sum embezzled , or at least as a
part payment $100 , the balance to bo paid
later. This , ho said , he was unable to do ,
but requesting ; me to accompany him up
town ho handed me $5 saying that this was
t nil he could pay at the time , A second visit
V to his ofllco was unsatisfactory , but a few .
days thereafter Mr. Schmelser appeared 111
the house where I am stopping and In
formed ma tli at all the moneys due me nnd
gotten from me In an 111 manner hid been
sent to Vienna , the balance per ( airgraph
since my arrival In Oma.na.
"A lotlcr wa * also received by me In De
cember , 1S03 , dated at Vienna , and which
purported to have been Bent by Edward
Schmtlscr's fanner landlady. In this I wai
requested to desist from all further prosecu
tion of Edward Eclimelscr , either here or In
the old country on payment of a consider- '
uble um , meaning 100 florins , This I did
notdo. , "

At the Hoyd theater this and Wednesday
evenings , Willie Collier , the quaint comedian ,
will' be seen in Edward E. Kldder's new
comedy-drama , "A Dack Number. " Much .
Interest is felt In this city to see Mr. Collier |
In a legitimate comedy role , which he as
sumes In the. play written for him by the
author of "Peaceful Valley" and "A Poor
Relation. " Farce comedy Is now with Mr.'X
Collier a thing of the past. Ills success In
"IIoss and IIoss" was so great that his
friends and admirers felt convinced he was
humorous enough not to require- the surround
ings of fares comedy. In fact. It was be
lieved that his quaint humor would be Been
to greater advantage If he pitched his efforts
on a higher plane. To test this , "A flack
Number" was tried , nnd wherever Mr. Col
lier has appeared In his nsw field , he lias
received the highest praise -from press and
public. Mr. Collier assumes a dual role ,
and Is given ample opportunity to show his
versatility : As Ilenjarnln Dennett , Tilr. Col
lier portrays the village- schoolmaster of an
Ohio village , taking everything seriously to
such ann extent r that he Is-almost oppressed
by the sternness of his sense of duty. There
Is absolutely nothing in" this fact to .remind
one of the actor who provoked so many
laughs ln"IIoss nnd IIoss , " other than the
lact that ho Is funny as ever , though In a
different line. As the teacher's brother ,
Shiftless Ike , there Is a strong reminder
of the Willie Collier the public knew In
former years. Thpro Is , however , no ludi
crous makeup nor constant Introduction of
specialties. From this It must not bo imag
ined that Mr. Collier has ceased to be funny ,
as lias been the case with many who have
attempted to rise from farce to legitimate. In
lila new sphere It ; 1ms , been agreed on all
sides that lie Is funnier than ever. There
Is a pastoral love story of much beauty. Den-
Jamln Dennett Is beset by troubles on all
sides , but In the end his devotion to duty Is
rewarded. Mr , Collier Is ably supported by
George W. Lsarte , ll A. Smith , James It.
Smith , M. L. Heckert , Edward Clark , Louise
Allen Collier. Helen Heliner , Belle Bucklln
nnd MaUle Earlc.
The splendid New York company presenting -
ing Edward Milton Royle's successful play ,
"Friends , " Is'announced to appear here again
November 2 , 3 and 4. "Friends" has been
the subject of more brilliant dramatic and ed
itorial criticism" than any other attraction
extant. We can say honestly , however , that
both play and players thoroughly deserve all
the praise that has been lavished by critics
of celebrity. When last produced hero It
created a lurorc1 , 'arid we 'were most pleased
to recognize Us sucqess and commend It to
our public , and , now that It will bo seen here
again , wo advise all who were unfortunate
enough to miss seeing It last season , to avail
themselves"of Hie- privilege this year. Last
season's strong cast will doubtless win new
triumphs this year. Selena Fetter Royle Is
noted for the originality of her toilets , and
as she has a complete nevr wardrobe this
season , her feminine admirers here will
doubtless be Interested. That superb actor-
pianist , Lucius Henderson , will be heard In
new selections during the piano recital. This
novel feature draws crowds of music , lovers
everywhere. "Friends" tells such an In
teresting story , blending comedy so artistic
ally with pathos , that a most enjoyable even-
Ing's entertainment Is assured. "Friends"
will be seen at Boyd's Friday , Saturday and
Sunday evenings and Saturday matinee.

NEW YORK , Oct. 23. Major Qeorgo nib-
bard of this city has recently returned from
an extensive trip through the norlhweat and
northern portions of the- Pacific slope. One
of the most Important pieces ol news he
brings concerns the proposed new Midland
Pacific railroad , over the route of which he
traveled for the especial purport of getting
a knowledge of that section of the country
in order to make a report thereon to Canadian
nnd foreign capitalists who am rcndy to in
vest In the new enterprise If they should bp
satisfied of Us feastMty. . Major Hlbhard is
now able to state * Uut the capital , both Cana
dian and foreign , Is satisfied nnd that he- has
therefore been able to enter line contract
with United States Senator 11. F. Pcttlgrcw
of South Dakota for the bulMIng of the Mid
land Pacific from Sioux Falls , S. D. , to Se
attle nnd Tacoma , Wash. , a distance of 1,000
miles. Success Is thus assured for what will
undoubtedly be- ono of the great transconti
nental routes.
Asked If the construction of the road was
IJ bo undertaken , nt an early dite. lajor Hlb-
bard replied : "The first section. otcndlns
from Sioux Falls to the coal fields of VVya-
mltig : , about 400 mites , will ba built In the
spring | ol 1835. These fields , by the way ,
contain ( In vast quantities a oal equal iti
quality to the best produced in Illinois. Slnco
South Dakota Is entirely without coal rr
other fuel In any amount It wjll oo seen what
an advantage sne will derive from those In
creased facilities for fuel that Is. plentiful
and cheap. The second section , from
the eastern boundary line of Wyoming
to the Yellowstone park , will bo completed
during the season of 1S96 anj In connection
with the Illinois Central air line it will fur
nish a route 200 miles shorter than any other
between Chicago and the nation : ) ! park.
"Tho third section , which Is expected to
follow the second section Immedlfttt-ly , : E
called the Idaho division nnd starts at the
western line of the Rockies , a country rich
In minerals , timber and agrlculiural areas. .
The fourth section , the Washlni.oi : d-vlson : ,
will pass through central Washington and
have terminals In the peculiarly promlsliig
ports of Tacoma. and Seattle.
"Sioux Falls , the eastern terminus , " con
tinued Major Hlbbard , "as you know , Is
equally promising. Flvo eastern Tallrcuds
converge there. It Is the most prosperous
city of South Dakota by a good deal , being
the distributing center for all the eastern
and southern parts of the state , southwestern
Minnesota and northwestern Iowa. The new
road will have Its principal repair and rail
road shops at Sioux Falls and make It the
basis for the distribution of all the materials
to be used In the construction of ihc fits
two divisions. On the first of UIOFO active
'X ' work will bo begun by June 1 , 1895. "

In order to give this court Jurlsilctlon ! , < eHler
the complainant must be a citizen ofKansas ,

these defendants who are nonresidents of

icntimcnt In Favor of it Eipressed by Char
ter Amendment Committee.
T HIS METHOD FOR ALL PUBLIC WORK
' .ml Nlcht's Meeting Mnlnly Confined to n
DlnciiMlon ol the Qucntton Only Ono
Mnii Acnlnst It I.reUtntlro L'aiull-
ilatos Will Ito Quritloncd.
Tlio only matter of Importance that was
considered by the charter amendment com-
nltlee last night was that of the employ
ment of day labor In public \\orlo. The sub-
lommltteo appointed on this subject tinmedl-
" tcly after the organization of the commlt-
co broueht in a divided report , Jtessrs.
iV'Inspear and Towler presented a majority
eport , recommending that section 113 of the
barter be so amended as to provide that any
nibllc works that were to be paid for by a
icneral tax might. In the discretion of the
mayor and council , be done by day labor
ndcr the supervision of the Board of Public
tVorks , and that all material should be pur-
ihased by the city.
The minority report was signed by Mr.
Vyman , who objected to the proposed amend
ment , on the ground that the city would not
ccelvo as good service from day labor as It
Id on contracts , lie held that the proposed
measure was contrary to public policy. In
bat it would make the department a po-
Itlcal machine. The work was now being
lone as economically as possible , without
tijury to the laboring men. and , in his opln-
on. the amendment contained In the majority
cport was not explicit , and was liable to
'erverslon. '
In support of the amendment Mr. Wtnspear
: ald that the only things contemplated to
e done by day labor were the street swccp-
ng and sewer construction. If It was found
hat the results were- superior to those se-
lured under the present system. In regard
, o the street sweeping be stated that a large
laving couid bo effected If tbo work was
'ono by the city and the employ-
lent would be given to Omalm laboring men
Instead of a lot of cheap men who were
mportcd by the contractor.
DAY LA neil GENERALLY PAVOUED.
The general tendency in all the larger cities
fits toward the employment of day labor In
ome departments of public work and the
esults had been satisfactory In every case.
The majority report was adopted , Mr.
.Vyman . alone dissenting.
Colonel C. S. Chase was named to fill the
vacancy on the committee , caused by the
eslgnatlon of W. S. Popplcton.
The question of making some provision
which would enable the city to build or pur-
haso n city Jail was suggested by Major
iVhccler. and referred to Mr. Connell's com
mittee. In this connection Mr. Connell sug
gested that the city owned property on Ninth
treet , which was admirably adapted for that
lurpose. There were a number of streets
_ iuat below there which could be utilized as
a stone yard , and would be adjacent to the
railroad tracks , so that clone could bo read
ily supplied.
On motion of Mr. Wheeler a special com
mittee of three was- appointed to recommend
iuch changes as were necessary to remove
nctmsletencles and conflicting passages. The
committee consists of Connell , Lemly and
Wheeler. The committee adjourned to Thurs
day night , yihen nil legislative candidates
will be expected to be present.

Is an easy task. The man with a character
as pure as the "lily of the valley , " who is ready
to sacrifice his individual interests for that of his
state , who loves and respects his fellow-men bet
ter than himself , and who's ideas are ever in con- '
slstency with all cranky notions , will always be
some votes short after the election. The other fel
low , with less angelic qualifications , is usually the
choice of common sense. So it is in society , so
in business. The clothier who slashes and
smashes and gives goods away in order to be a
good fellow , is to be fought shy like a Jersey
mosquito. The Nebraska gives nothing away ,
neither do we take anything ( or nothing. We'll
try our utmost to protect your dollar and give
you all we can for it. This season we can give
you more for your money than ever before , and
we do it cheerfully , without much ado , and Super
fluous newspaper display. A suit you formerly
paid us $7.50 for was always worth fric.oo in any
store. This season we'll take but FIVE
DOLLARS and give you choice of two respec
table , all wool cheviot suits , well made , good
linings and honestly finished one of dark blue ,
the other of dark gray effect both of a neat
plaid.
A true black cheviot all wool suit is worth
$15 oo , so is an all wool cassimere , but we'll fur
nish either this year at EIGHT SEVENTY-
FIVE , although they were cheap last year at
$11,50 , common sense buyers bought it for that
price at a bargain. Our black cheviots are double
breasted serge lined , elegantly trimmed , and the
cassimere ones are single breasted , pin checked ,
or brown and gray mixtures , Italian lined.
Examine all § 15.00 suits offered about town
if you please and compaie 'em to our $8.75 one.
That's all we ask.
