The city council met yesterday morning In
Mayor Cleaver's private office to discuss some
ot the matters referred to the committee of
the whole at the last meeting. W. H. Ware
wag there In the Interests of the Wizard Tele
phone company , to urge the granting of a
franchise for the building of a new line of
telephoneto compete with the Nebraska
Telephone company. The main objection In
the minds of the aldermen was that the ordi
nance which the company asked to have
passed did not bind the company to do any
favors for the city In return for the favor
of a franchise. Mr. Ware said the company
would bind Itself to have Its work completed
by a specified time , If that was what was
wanted. There seemed to be a good deal ol
uncertainty as to Just what the city fathers
did want , and the matter was finally post
poned until a meeting to be held next Satur
day afternoon. In the meantime City Clerk
Phillips la to correspond with the larger
cities of the state with a view to finding
what demands are made upon similar com
panies there. The result of his Investiga
tions will determine the fate of the Wizard
company.
S. IJ. Snyder Is trying to have the councl
order the car barns of the Omaha & Coun

Avenue A and Twenty-eight street removed
It seems the company owned every lot In the
entire block excepting three when It bull
Its b.irns , and expected some timeto buy
those three , one of which Is now owned b ;
Snyder. The entire block was vacant , am
the barns were built directly across the alley
which had no existence , excepting In the pla
filed In the recorder's olHce. Now Snyde
la asking to have the alley opened , and ha
refused an offer of ? 350 for his lot , Insisting
on having J500. The company has offered t
make an alleyway along sideSnyder's lot
but this offer was also refused. The councl
referred the matter to the city attorney
who will make a report at the meeting
Saturday.
The petition of Wclghmaster Thomas John
son to have the right of all persons except
Ing hlroself to charge fees for welghln
taken away was discussed. City Altorne
Hazlcton stated that the city ordered th
scales at the junction of Main and Pear
streets removed five or six years ago , but th
marshal was enjoined by the stock compan
that then operated them. The Injunction wa
afterward dissolved , and C. C , Honn , th
manager , agreed to remove the scales at an
time upon a notice of thirty days. This no
ties was never given. Mr. Hazelton did no
know whether the agreement was made o
record or not , and he was Instructed to lee
It up and ascertain. Johnson Eald he mad
between $ oO and JCO a month out of the clt
scales , and would be able to make $80 o
$100 a month out of the Main street scale ?
and he would donate 20 per cent of his earn
Ings to the city If his request should b
granted. Councilman Urewlck , who had be
Instructed to find out what the prospect
were for the purchase of the scales by th
city , reported that the parties owning them
, had refused to part with them at any cost.
The committee decided to report favorabl
upon the ordinance to bring to grade Thin
street , from Story street to Ninth avenue
No action was taken with reference- th
removal of the North Main street bridge.

The Jury In the case of Gregory against
Carey returned a scaled verdict , which was
opened by Judge Smith yesterday morning.
1 ( was In favor of the plaintiff for the sum of
$122.72. In Its special findings the Jury put
the value of King Humbert , the trotting
stallion whom Gregory converted to his own
n use , at $1,000 , and the date of the conver
ts : slon August 21 , 18S9. Of the $1,550 note
Carey paid $875 , and the Interest on the re
mainder was computed from May 11 , 1889.
In some way the Jury arrived at the conclu
sion that Gregory had coming to him the
amount above given , but Carey's attorneys
claim the amount Is too much by about $100.
If the mistake Is one of arithmetic It will
probobly be corrected by the court.

Venerable I'ol Hook.
Mr. J , L. Shoemaker arrived In the city
yesterday enroute to his home In Wllsonvllle ,
Kan. , and paid a brief visit to his brother
here , Mr. A. C. Shoemaker. He brought
with him and left for a few days an old
heirloom that Is surrounded with a good
deal more than ordinary Interest. It Is an
old pot hook , the kind that used to suspend
the kettle In the wide fireplaces of our
grandmother's days. But this one Is a ponderous
derous and elaborate affair and has done
service through six generations. H was made
James Johnson , n progenitor of the Shoe
maker family who lived In Ireland In the
eventeenth century. He was a blacksmith
and hammered out this useful Implement In
075 at a peat fire when he was not engaged
n making more warlike Implements. He was
warrior and distinguished himself fighting
against King James at the battle of the
loyne. The venerable relic has bien handed
down from one generation to another until
he present time. It was brought to America
wenty-flve years before the revolutlonarj
war and has held the family pot In colonial
cabins In branches of the family who lived
n Virginia , Pennsylvania and Kentucky. II
came Into the possession of Mr. Shoemakei
by will In 1876. It Is an elaborately orna
mented piece of metal , capable of an exten
slon of five feet. Few blacksmiths In Council
Bluffs or Omaha could do the work any bet'
ter today with their coal forges and moden
tools , The old Implement' will be on cxhlbl
tlon at The Bee office today.

The fear of pain and the
dangers of childbirth fill many
a woman's breast with dismay.
In the olden days of leeches
and witchcraft , it was consid
ered sacrilegious to lessen the
pains of labor. Latterly , an
aesthetics have been used at
the time of parturition , and
now people are beginning to
find out that pain and danger
can be almost wholly avoided.
Proper preparation during
gestation will make both , as
rare as they used to be common.
There is no reason why child
birth should be fraught with
danger and distress. It is a perfectly natural function , and should
be performed in a natural way without undue suffering. Nature
never intended that women should be tortured when doing the one thing
which makes them wholly womanly. The perversion of nature's laws
has brought this suffering about , and a return to right living will stop it.
Nine out of ten women are troubled more or less by weakness and
diseases peculiar to their sex. It is so because they do not take proper
care of themselves because they neglect little ills and little precautions.
it A woman in perfectly hearty health goes through her time of trial with
Isi. comparative ease. The thing to do then , is to make all pregnant wo

SAN FRANCISCO , April 2D. For the first
time since the charge ot murdering Miss
Marian Williams In Kmnnuel Baptist church
of this city was Informally made against W.
II. T. Durrani the prisoner has consented to
talk. He spoke first of the Lament case ,
saying :
"Poor Blanche Lamontl I am charged
with strangling her and then remaining un
moved nt the details of the most horrible
crime In history. No ono will ever know
the sorrow I felt and no ono could begin to
comprehend my thoughts even If I were to
tell all the anguish her terrible fate has
caused me. I could not have murdered that
girl. I liked her too well , not better than
anyone else In the world , but I respected anil
admired her and wo were good friends.
Judging by newspaper communications I am
looked upon as a coldblooded , diabolical mon
ster. I am painted ns a devil In human
shape and very little Is Bald of the possibil
ity of any other person killing these two
girls , but when my trial Is over the world
will know that I am Innocent.
"My composure and self-control since my
arrest are held against me , but no person
will never know the terrible ordeal I am un
dergoing. It Is said that I use opiates to
Induce sleep. That Is a He. I am able to
sleep well because my conscience Is clear
of all crime. I am not of a nervous tem
perament and have always been able to keep
cool. "
Ho accuses the police of working solely
from the premise that no Is guilty of the
crime and Ignoring all other clews.
Because of Durrani's placid demeanor un
der fearful accusations , his sound sleep and
regular eating at a season BO trying to
nerves , Durrani makes a study of Intense
Interest to the psychologist.
A sensational rumor has obtained cur
rency In connection with Ihc prisoner , and If
the facts should prove the rumor true , the
police will have a strong link in a chain
of circumstantial evidence that so far Is
not very strong , In the Williams case , at
least. The rumor Is to the effect that an
Oakland official has communicated to Chief
of Police Crowley of this city a statement
to the effect that an Oakland physician told
htm that a fellow practitioner In San Fran
cisco had Informed him that some time ago
ho had been called upon to attend the 15-
year-old daughter of a resident of San Fran
cisco. The girl had been assaulted and she
alleges that her assailant was Durrani ; that
ho had lured her to the belfry of Emanucl
church and had there accomplished his pur
pose. For professional reasons , It Is alleged ,
this physician refused to make the matter
public. Chief Crowley refused to either af
firm or deny the story. It Is reasonably cer
tain , however , thai Iho delccllves are al
work on this clew.
ARRAIGNED FOR THE LAMONT MURDER
Theodore Durrani was arraigned loday in
Ihe police courl on a charge ot murder for
Ihe killing of Blanche Lament , The defend
ant concluded himself wllh his usual
stoicism , and after the formal proceedings
had a long consultation with his attorneys.
Ho complains bltlerly , however , that the
public Is trying1 to prejudge him. The mur
derer Is made to fit his case , while suspicious
circumstances regarding others are disre
garded. The coroner's Inquest , which com
menced this evening , will be continued every
night until concluded , so as not to Interfere
with the preliminary examination of Dur-
rant for the Williams murder , to bo resumed
tomorrow. "

"It Is a good many years since I began
to feel out of health , and my Hymptoms
have bjen so many that It Is hard to give
them all. My stomnoh was the first to
suffer fiom constitutional catarrh. 1 had
a horrible dyspepsia that kept me In n
constant distress and prevented the proper
digestion of food. After a time a kidney
affection appeared , which seemed to be the
cause of my blood and system lining up
with poisons. I suffered much with heart
disturbance nnd nervous weakness , wakr-
fulness and general prostration , In fact
my whole system seemed to be going to
pieces.
" 1 was In the same boat with many oth
ers , having chronic troublew , who ncec
competent medical help , but can't nffon
to pay big ; fees and drug bills. I went tc
] Jrs. Copelnncl nnd Sliepnrd , who treatci

Is restored , and I feel Umt I am perma
