„ Money hlcli bho IHil Not Uot-lto-
fusetl Invitation to C'oino Agiiln.
Yesterday afternoon a woman who gave
her name as Agnes Amey started oui
among the firemen of the city , armed will
a letter which purported to bo signed bj
Mr. W. U. Ford , chief of pollco of Dei
Molncs. The letter was addressed to th <
firemen and asked that they help her am
a llttlo girl 8 years of age , who accom
panlcd her , to get money enough to read
Wheeling , W. Va. It was stated that sh
had been stranded In Des Molnes with a the
Btrlcal company.
The first man she struck referred her t
the chief of police , and to his office all
wont ,
She met Captain Mostyn , acting chlul
and she told him that her name was Ague
Amey and that she waft stopping at th
IJarkcr hotel. The captain read the lettc
and arrived at the conclusion that It was dc
cldcdly fishy. Ho detained Mrs. Amey o
some pretext and dispatched a dotcctlvo t
the Darker hotel. The latter discovered thn
there was no Mrs. Amey at the hotel , bu
that there was a woman registered fror
Springfield , Mo. , by name "Agnes Hunting
ton. " To tto hotel people she had sal
that she was an accomplished pfanlst an
was waiting for the CUlo nllsler compan ;
which she Intended to Join.
When Mrs. Amey was confronted wit
this Information she said that her nair
was Huntlngton and that she was tli
wife of an actor of that name wti
died In St. Louis two years ago. She had n
Intention of Joining the theatrical compan ;
however , she said To explain why she hn
registered from Springfield she wild that si
had a rich undo living there and that sli
was as willing to go there as to Whcellni
She had nothing to say , however , when
was explained to her that It would not hav
cost her any more to go to Springfield froi
Des Molnes than to this city The captal
referred her to 1'ollco Matron Gumming
but Mrs Iluntlngton did not appear at tti
P pollco Htatton.
The pollco nro of the opinion that Mn
'ft Huntlngton ot Amey Is a fake Althoup
she claims that the chief of pollco wroi
tlio letter of recommendation In her pre ;
once , It Is not considered that that niHcl
would sign himself with a "Mr" prcfixe
It Is also thought a little strange that
slio were on her way to Wheeling , W Vn
she would go by way of Omaha Finally , i
! ' the distance between Des Molnes and Omal
Hi and Des Molncs and Springfield , Mo. ,
about the same , a largo sized wonder cxls
In the minds of the pollco why she did in
go to her rich uncle
In explanation of the fact that she regl

Captain Mostyn she said that she did n
want any friends she might meet to kno
that she was In buch straits.

A Nfbrnika Invention , lloaml to Jlerolu-
tlonlio the Old Brntrm of I'umpi nnd
\ \ Indmill * .
It has been known for a year past thai
Alexander Hogeland of Lincoln , a practical
mechanic , claimed a valuable discovery In a
simple nnd Inexpensive water elevator , for
the Irrigation of ilnglo farms , garden * , and
especially adapted for taking the water out
of wells , rivers , creek bottoms , nnd from the
Inexhaustible reservoirs of sheet water under
lying the entire state of Nebraska , and easily
reached along the Plattc , Hepubllcan nnd
other rivers In Nebraska , and other states.
The frequency of Irrigation conventions In
states west of the Mississippi river , legislative
enactments , the opening of experimental Irri
gation stations , and Ita stuJy In schools and
colleges within the last five years , confirm the
fact that Irrigation Is now the all-absorbing
question with all thoughtful farmers , garden
ers , stock and ranch men Some months ago
the Invention was shown to Messrs. Paxton
ft VIerlIng of the Iron works of Omaha , and
they at once began Its manufacture. A re
porter of The lite witnessed one In operation
yesterday at the Omaha Tinware Manufactur
ing company , at Twentieth and I'lerce streets.
It was a No. 4 In size. They are simple and
Inexpensive , and require so llttlo power that
any farmer , gardener , or fruit raiser , can
afford to purchase one. Briefly described ,
the elevator consists of an upright piece of
timber , from six to eight Inches square , fif
teen feet , moro or less , In height. At the
top and bottom ot this are alllxcd Iron
brackets , holding shafts with a slnglo
sprocket wheel on each ; these carry an
endless link belt. Affixed to this belt or
chain , are three gallon cups of the heaviest
galvlnlzed Iron , oblong In shape , with an
air chamber on their upper outside. The open
ings for receiving and delivery of the water
are two circular holes at the upper outside
of the cups Over these openings on the
Inside ot the cup Is a sharp metal cone The
water at the Instant of the cup's turning ,
and at the moment of delivery , dashes
against this cone , and the process of emptyIng -
Ing Is Instantaneous. The steady movement
ot the cups over the sprocket wheel In
empt > lng Is secured by two narrow band
wheels covered with rubber. In dipping the
water , the air chamber and double delivery
opcnnlgs In cup combine to remove the air
from the cup , thus securing an Instantane
ous filling with water. This combination ,
and the oval ends of the cups relieve the
friction that would otherwise be Incident to
dragging the cup through the water. The
delivery of the water on the outside ot the
cup admits of the coupling of each ono on
the belt so closely as to barely clear each
oilier , thus making the body of water going
up In the cups a solid column These were
dipped and emptied at the rate ot SO per
minute (210 ( gallons ) , or 14,400 per hour , suf
ficient to Irrigate seventy-five to 100 acres
ot land The manufacturers ot the elevator
claim that this large volume of water con
veyed to a height of twenty-flvo feet , re
quires the energy of a two-horse power ,
Tliclr cost on board the cars. In sizes from
ono to three gallon cups , ten to twenty-five
feet In height , would be from $30 to $125 ,
It Is predicted by Its friends that by reason
of the simplicity and cheapness of its con-
Btiiiction the demand for It In the valleys
of tlio Platte , Republican and Klkhorn rivers
In Nebraska , and streams In other states
will. In tlio near future , call for a manufac
tory equal In capacity to that of the McCor-
mlck Mower nnd Heaper , the Studebakci
Wagon Factory , or that of the Westing'
house Air Drake company , employing thous'
ands of operatives. They are so simple thai
they may bo easily swung upon trucks , am'
n In the case of Inundation of cellars fron
freshets they can bo carried to points when
desired and used for the relief of buildings
etc. , from over-flow , and they will be valu
able In relieving coal , Iron and zinc mine !
ot surplus water. Everybody will wish thli
now Invention the success It merits , and Hi
prompt Introduction will give to the cltlzem
of our state an assured crop of every ser
and wo will no longer , as in the past , con
tlnue to send our surplus money for the pur
ch.aso ot supplies of fruits and vegetables ti
California , Colorada , Now Mexico , and else
where In the Irrigation states Every busl
ness man In Omaha who feels an Interes
in Irrigation should call at once and sci
this machine before It Is taken down. Majo
Allen , ono of the proprietors ot the Omnlii
Tlnwaio Manufacturing company , Is glvlni
his personal attention to exhibiting It ti
visitors. It can be seen In operation fron
10 to 5 o'clock this afternoon and during tin
vv eek.

j
The Irwln electric signal service vva
tested with satisfactory results on the Eas
Omaha bridge yesterday at 10.30 o'cloc
In the presence of Superintendent Harris c
the East Omaha Bridge and Terminal com
pany , ex-City Electrician Cowglll and other
Interested In the outcome. The system vva
recently put In by permission of the coir
pany as an experiment. It Is an Omaha Ir
\cntlon backed by Omaha capital.
The signals consist of red for danger an
vvhlto for safety , and are placed In posltlo
so that the moment a train enters tli
approach of the bridge the electric appllanc
flashes a warning for a distance of on
mile , that the train has started to cro ;
the bridge. After crossing the latter , tli
service then displays the safety signal for
distance of one mile In the rear of the trail
announcing that the bridge Is clear f <
traffic. A train was made up for the oca
slon yesterday and the experiment proved SU' '
cesstul In every respect , and to the cvidei
satisfaction of all who witnessed It.
Mr. Potter and Mr. Harris of the Eai
Omaha Bridge and Terminal company pn
nounced tbclr approval of the system an
complimented it highly ,
It is probable that the Union Pacific vvl
adopt a similar system of safety in tl
near future

sult of a collusion among tlicso men for the
puriraso of getting an outrageously low value
placed upon the property. He asserts that
the whole property Isorth not less than

an association wns the real party In Interest

Summer Underwear.
The Underwear we sell don't fit a bit better than
others , provided , however , that the other article is of
the first , but not of the second quality.
Second quality is a damaged first quality ; usually
contains flaws in the yarn , which soon break into
shreds , If not distinctly visible the fault might be -4
traced to one sleeve shorter than the other ; perhaps
the length of the body was chopped off , or possibly
knitted out of position , Can't expect even a ghost of
a fit from such. .
First , nothing but first quality here Balbriggan
at 250 , even that of first quality 350 450 650 all
first qua'ity The kind we represent as French balbriggan -
briggan is from France , not from Wahoo. Our lisle
thread underwear at 750 and Si.oois pure lisle , mat
ters little how much conjuration some high-toned fur
nishing man uses when you arc made to give up $4 to * i

thread ours is none the less. We'd wager a copy of
