It was within a very few minutes of 5
o'clock yeJtcrday afternoon when the case
of George Morgan was placed In the handset
ot the jury which Is lo decide whether ho Is
the murderer of I < la Gasklll , and which. If It
flnds him ciillty , will send him either to fSo
gallows or to the penitentiary for life.
All the morning anil all the afternoon until
4:15 : o'clock wis occupied with the arguments
of the opposing counsel. At that time County
Attorney Ualdrlge finished his speech to the
jury , which lasted two hours.
At tlu < conclusion of the address Judge
Scott hcgan delivering his Instructions to Uio
jury and did not finish until almost C o'clock.
He uald that under Information Morgan
was charged with mur.lcr In theflrH degree
and with criminal tibsiult and murder. Under
the first count It was within the province of
tliti jury to bring In a verdict cf murder In
the first degree , murder In the second de-
grco or manslaughter. Under the > ecand , If
It had been shown that the girl had been as-
uanlttd , It was possible for the Jury to bring
In only n verdict of conviction ,
He Instructed the jury to cirefully consider
especially the evidence cf the police olllcera , _
who flatly contradicted the statement of Mor
gan that on the morning of his nrreit he- ex
plained the blood on his clothing by saying
that he liad the nos ? bleed. Ht > Instructed
It , too , not to hesitate If one of the links In
the chain cf the- evidence appeared weak , butte
to judge- from the ovldenco taken as a mass.
' Ho said that If the evidence showed that
Morgan had committed an assault upon Ida
Gasklll , It was enough to show that th : girl
had been killed by him. It the jury win
Hallsllcd of the- first proposition without a
reasonable doubt It justified It In convicting
Morgan , and then it was left fcr them to
decide whether he should be hanged or sent
to the penitentiary for life.
The arguments and Instructions wrre lis
tened to by an audience as large as the
court room would accommodate. ICvcry
available bit of bitting and standing room
was occupied. Kvcry ono In tli room paid
cloio attention to all that wan sjil | , espe
cially the jury.
Morgan carried hlnuclf r.s he has during
the entire trial , There wao absolutely no

"Heroine Coulter 1'utleiilly AViiltH for
HIM FrlemlH to Come.
Among the earliest arrivals at Judge
Berlin's court yesterday was Jerome Coul
ter.
ter.It
It was announced Friday that yesterday
would be positively Coulter's last In the roio
of a searcher for bondsmen , and that four
solid men would be on hand to placa their
names to the document for his appearance
in district court. H was nearly 11 o'clock' '
when Charles ) n. Squires reached the Htatton
and placed his name on the bond for $2,500.
Then there was a lull In the proceedings
until Cornelius Dougherty of South Omaha
came forward and was placed on the stand
In order to ho sworn ns to hU earthly pos
sessions. It had been figured by Coulter's
attorney thai ; this man could easily qualify
for $25,000 , but Mr. Dougherty was not sura
of this. ' . In answer to questions put by
Assistant County Attorney Day , Mr. Dough-
crty stated that he owned a brick block
at Twenty-fourth and Q streets. South
Omaha , valued at $10,000 , upon which there
wa nn Incumbrance of $ .2,300 ; n lot near
i/iurel Hill cemetery , worth ? 300 , and some
propel ty In Colorado. He also possessed a
vacant lot at Twenty-third and K ftreets ,
South Omaha , valued at about $800. It was
then developed by Attorney Day that Dough-
orty had no deed to any of tliaj.- properties ,
that a brother and ita'er were equally Inter
ested with himself , and that the estate which
had been loft by a dcased brother two
years ago1 had never besn sHtled. It was-
further developed that a mor'gage on the
lot and building at Twenty-fourth and Q
strata was being foreclosed , and that there
were other claims against the estate. After
considerable discussion Mr. Dougherty way
allowed to go on thu bond for $ -,500 , pro
vided he would get his sister to sign also.

"We want n memorial monument In this
city that will net only be a token of respect
to cur dead comrades , but one which shall
also reflect and perpetuate the history of
their noble deeds on bronzennd marble. A
chapter In the lilstory of the soldiery of Ne
braska , written upon indestructtblf material ,
which shall not only bo an ornament to Jef
ferson square , but a souvenir for all time to
come to tliobe who look back over the sands
of time , and give a passing thought to the
moldcrlng lioroes , " eald Chairman 1) ) . H. Ball
In his opening address to tli ? members of
George A. Cuiter pest last night. The meet
ing had been called by the Douglas County
Veterans' association for the purpose of dis
cussing means and ways for the erection of
a memorial to b placed In some prominent
point in the city ,
Mr. Dall stated that a committee- appointed
for the purpose' had about settled upon Jef
ferson Bfjiuie for a location for the monument
ment , and lie considered the-selection a good
one. This small city park , the only one any
where near the center of Omnlm , was at the
prent time- devoid of ornament of any de
scription , He had traveled through many
portions of the east , and had seldom en
countered liny city of over 20,000 Inhabitants
but had made tome attempt at public decora
tions In the way of otatues and , tablets.
Omaha had none , memorial , artistic or other
wise. Mr. lialt thought It due to the enter
prise of the western metropolis that voiua
cll'ort should noxv ho made In this direction.
A 'iiandsome monument erected upon the
Kquaro wculd give a mrtropolltnn flnlih to the
city tint A larKO number of buildings casting
n vast sum of money would fill to do. Mr.
Dall thru briefly stated that the present
meeting was for the purpois of organizing
and asked for suggestions on the subject.
Mr. Keenan followed up the subject by
trying that In all of the ramrn states , not
ably Pcniuylvania , New York , Ohio and In
diana , each county luil erected a monument
to dead soldlira In Indiana a bill had been
pitted empowering each county lo levy a
special tax with this object In view. It had
resulted In many Instances in come mag-
nllleent memorials , and the awessment had
been AU trifling that the expenie to the In
dividual was unnotlceable. He thought In
the. local campaign for funds that the mem
ber * cf the Grand Army of the Republic
should ctart the ball rclllng by prlvatJ oub-
'crlptlon * , and whn the objec : In view had
a ciibstantlf.l foundation It would be an easy
inatttr to Interest city corporations , and pou-
I'bly get an appropriation from ( hs county
jntl ( talc. A tuggestlon was also made by
Mr , Keenan that the ladles of the relief
ceri > conduct a bazaar , or a series of enter-
tnlnnmitH , to help cut the fund.
V. ' A. Aekwlth stated that he had received
i number cf designs for monuments from
eastern UrniP. nnd found that a very cred-
"ublu ant could be erected for JIO.OOO , nl-
thOBgh for J City the die of Omaha the
v t-frhQulil bi twlcoTthtt flgurt. One /Inn /
t > 3tt jun'eomplstfd a mcnfament In Sioux
City t'a coit of a trifle over $8.000 , and the
ot ( be tame lubmltled ihowtd a
handsome obelisk forty feet In height. The
design for one In Omaha should coutemplato
a column not less than sixty feet in height ,
and should be topped with a life-size figure
in bronze.
Several suggestions were at this point
mads aa to the form of the memorial , and
one proposed by W. O. Morse was at length
settled upon as being the most appropriate.
Ho stated that at Waukesha , WIs. , he saw
a handsome monument costing flfi.OOO ,
erected solely by contributions from visitors
to the springs. It was forty feat high , and
had upon Its pinnacle two life-size figures in
bronze , one n roldler and the other a marine
He- suggested that this design be slightly
altered , and that but one figure bs placed
upon the top of the column , a ooldler fully
accoutred with gun at parade rest being a
fitting statue. At the baas there should be
four large panels large enough to contain
the names of all Nebraska recruits that
died In the war , and In the angles formed
by the panels four large figures represent
ing nn Infantryman , artilleryman , cavalry
man and marine.
J.V. . Thompson said In conclusion that
ho thought If the matter were propcily set
before the business men of the city n large
number of subscriptions for $100 each might
be obtained , payable nt a date when the
scheme should assume tan"lblo form. H
was decided by the members that a camp
fins should be given at the Grand Army of
the llepubllc hall December 20 , at which a
large number should bo present , nnd that
the plans for raising the monument fund
bo discussed at greater length.

If some foreign artist of waning reputation
In her own country hail como to our shores
loudly heralded by a not altogether disinter
ested press as the greatest genius of her
time , and had offered such a Camllle and
such a Rosalind as Miss Ellsler presented
yesterday , the play houses would not have
contained the people who would have flocked
to see and hear her. To attempt In ono day
two roles so diverse as those of Dumas' sickly
heroine and the sweetest creation In woman
kind of the bard of Avon Is what most
great acrtesses would not do. To achieve
success In each , under most trying circum
stances , before cold and indifferent audiences ;
to win for Camllle the sympathy which her
woes no longer gain readily from the latter-
day public ; and to present a Rosalind in
every way acceptable In the light of tradition
and invested with a new quality by tha win
ning personality of the etar ; all this Is
something that most actresses , great or
small , could not do , and In accomplishing It
Miss Ellsler , who has only lately re-entered
the Held of the legitimate , after a long ex
cursion Into the byways ot society drama ,
has established herrelf in a position of great
prominence. '
This latent of a long and uneven Una of
Camillas may Iiavo been a thought too cold
at times , when a tpark of passion might
have electrified tha house. She "uy have
l)2en ) more uniformly tad than EIU ! should
be and lens \olatllo and light-hearted. Com
parisons might be mailo to the ch ir.icterlza-
tloiu1 of other artists who have emphasized
thB frivolous side of Camllle's nature. The
part , with Its unhealthy , spacious , pathetic
appeal for ; > mpathy , l not one to which
Miss Ellsler Is temperamentally suited. That
eho achieved so great a degree cf artistic
success In It Is the more to her credit. With
the nature of Hoaallml she Is more at home ,
although to gee her In doublet and hose
sceinu as strange as the heroine teemed to
herself wlion she first put on "a swashing
and martial outside. " Mi < s Cllslor quite fills
the eye as the * love-lorn "maid whose quest
befell In Arden's leafy shade ; " her voice In
the Intelligent reading of her lines Is music
to the ear , and her performance as a uliolo
la studious and well rounded. One has seen
many Rosalinds , some very good , Indeed.
u is too mucn to .uy inai .MUS uusier is tne
best of then , but there are abundant f-le-
menty of ztrcngth In her Interpretation of
the role , \\lilch v/lll gain in power us the
years go on , One hopes that she will not
become discouraged by reason of any ap
parent lack of appreciation , hut will persevtre
in the way site Jius bgun , trusting to time
and her own merits to net her right ,
Mr. Dllnn Is u manly and graceful Orlando
and an ugreejhlo but wniewtut colprlesj

"Camllle , " but appeared to distinct advan
tage In th ? evening as Touchstone ; and Mr.
John A. Ellaler , to bee whom In uny part U
