John Wlllemans , wlio has considerable Jail
experience himself. Knows where Vic Me-
Carty Is , or at least he saja ho does. He
blew Into the police station yesterday nfter
noon with bis breath laden with the per-
fnmo cf various saloons along the line of hlc
march , and demanded that Officer Murphy be
produced. On * of the other officers volun
teered lo talk to him. In Murphy's absence ,
but Wlllemans turned on lilm simply and
said "I haf no blsness mlt jou " The othei
officer subsided , but In the course of the nexl
few- minutes Wlllfimns told substantially all
he knew , or thought be did.
According to the story he told , he was In
South Omaha last Saturday afteinoon , ami
made the various s-.ilooim his headquarters
Ho h id some little money about him , and o
gang WHS very shortly organised to 1i"lp him
spend It. A large number ot rounds ot drinks
were purchased at Wlllemans' expense , nnd
so plcasintly was the gang Impressed wltli
Wlllemans and bis way of doing things thai
II voted him captain. A close coiporntloii
was then foimed. the object ot which v - ute
to rob buiks und railway tialns and such
other things ab might happen along.
Wlllemans claims that timing his Inter
view wli'ii the members of the gang ho fouiul
out where Vic McCarly is biding , and he
offers to give up HIE secrtt for a sult-iblc
consideration , But the $1.200 reward now
held out Is not laigp erough by nny means
If things can be arranged sa that he will get
$2,000 out of It , he says he will divulgeHe
bad a talk with Officer Murphy In the prl\at =
olfico uti the police headquai ( era , and , It h
pre'umed. told everything.
When Murp'uy came out be was asked what
Willemans had to divulge. "Oh , I don't want
anything said about that , " was his reply ,
"thert tMi't any doubt that he knows where
McCarty Is. and if we can work him right I
think IIP can be mnde to gl\e up. "

Lake Moral , In Swit/eiland , h.s a queer
habit of tinning red about two or three times
every ten years , Mates the Nev , Vork Sun.
It Is n pietty lake , like most of 'be sheets
of water in that pictuiebque cojntry , and
its peculiar freak Is atliibuted to a disposi
tion to eel brate the slaughter ) f Burgun-
dlana under Charles the Bold , on June 21 ,
H7G But the riench say that It blushes
for the conduct of the Swiss , v\ho in that
battle gave the Buigundliiib no quarlci
This yenr It was reJder than ever , and haj
a sinister appearance when the setting sun
Illuminated Its waves.
This phenomenon of course has Its legend
The old lli'heimcn of the lake , who catch
enormous fish called silures that weigh b ° -
tuen 25 and 40 kilograms , say when they
see the waters of the lake * leddenlug that It
Is the blood of the Burgundlans As a mat
ter of fact , pome of the bodies of the Bur-
gundlans killed In bittle wers- thrown Into
the lake , while otheis were tossed Into it
grave filled with quicklime. This historical
recollection angered the Dmguudlan soldiers
of the vlc'orious armies of the r public in
173S so much that they destroyed the monument
ment raised In honor of their compatriots
who fell heroically In tint battle , and Hem I
Mirtln very Jiutly reproached them for that
piece of vandalism
It would hardly do to attribute the red
dening of the waters of the lake to the blood
nf the soldiers to Charles the Bold The
coloring Is due pimply to the presence In
largo quantities of little aquatic plants called
by naturalists osclllatorla rubetCEns. Tha
curious thing about It Is tint Like Moral

WASHINGTON. Dec S Thc. rfpubllcnt
crutus committee of the senate will bolt
Its formal meeting Monday after the nd
Journment of the senate for conslderinf
the question of filling the committee vn <
cnnclts and select chairmen ot the varloui
committees While nothing has be n flnallj
ngieed upon , It looks now ns if the chair' '
tranships of the more Important committee !
would be assigned as follows
Agriculture , Procter ; appropriations , Alll
Bin- coast defenses. Squired , censnip , Clmv
dlfr commerce Prye : District of Columbia
McMillan , nuance , Morrlll , nsherles , Perkins
foreign relations , Shernnn , Immigration
I edge , Indian nftalrs. Pettlgrew ; Interstntf
cc-nnicrce , Cullcm ; Judicialy , Hoar ; mllltniy
arnlrs , Haulcy , naval nffilrs. Cameron , post
offlc s nnd post rords , Wclco't , prlitl g Hale
piivllegcs und election" , Mitchell ot Oregon
public buildings and grounds , Quny , relation'
with Car.adi , rules , Aldrlch ; territories
Davis
A majoilty of thc o assignments go to th :
senators who o names are mentioned by
virtue ot seniority , but thTc arc some'ex
ceptions made necessary by tbo probability
of senior membeis lecolvlng other assign
ments
Senator Platt Is , for Instance , senior re
publican on Indian affairs and tnrltorles
and th only i.publlcan member on pnt.nt !
and revision of laws , and could have hi :
choice of the chairmanship of these com
mittees , but for the probability of bis bcnif
given a place on the flnanc * committee , ir
which event he would surrender his place
at thebau ot Indian affairs lo Senatoi
Pettlgrew and on territories to Senatoi
Davis and probably becom ? chairman "I
eltl.er patents or revision of laws Sen
ator Mitchell will have his choice of the
cUimanshlp ot cither privilege * nnd elec
tions or postofllces and post roads , but wil
cheese the Hist and will thus advance Wol-
cell to the hen-l of postofllccs and post roads
SCHEMING POR TELLER.
On the other hand Senator Teller Is al
tba held of tlie republ'can ' membership cl
no committee nnd one of the pioblems wltl
which the caucus commlt'e ° has to deal h
that ot furnlFhlng him with an acceptabl ;
committee. Senator Chandler Is not n mem
ber of the census committee , but as th ; ex
isting members of the committee all gel
other chairmanship0 , he Is enabled to take
the plac > at the head of his committee Sen
ator Hale secures printing because the re
publican membership Is entirely vacant.
Amcng the ( mportint chairmanships con
cerning which there Is no certainty as yel
are those of contingent expenses , cnroll ° i !
bills , labor , library , Pacific rallroids , pat
ents , pension ! , railroads nnd of revision ol
laws Senator Shoup Is the senior republican
on pciiblons , but it Is probable ho will surren
der the chairmanship to Senator Gilllngi
and accept another assignment. Senator Jones
of Nevada will in all probability be returned
to hlh old po-ltlon on contingent expenses ,
notwithstanding his Independent proclivities ,
Senator MltchMl Is the only republican mem-
b r of the committee on claims , and lie will
probably resign his memb3rshlp If It Is neces
sary to reconstruct the committee. Senatoi
Hansbrough could have the chalimnnshlp ol
this committee , but It Is understood ha has
virtually declined It.
DESIRABLE CHAIRMANSHIPS.
There arc some committees on which mem
berships nro ns much sought nfter as are the
chalrman&lilpb of others. These aie appro
priations , Judiciary , flnanc ? , foreign relations
and commerce. There has been some talk ol
Increasing the last committee from nine mem
bers to eleven , but the prolnbillties aie
against this. If It Is not Increased and If the
republicans organize Senator Brlci will retire
from the committee and his place will be
filled by a republican The aspirants arc
Senitors Quay , Pettlgrew and Perkins. It
appears piobable that the finance committee
will ba enlarged from eleven to thirteen mem
bers. In that event the republicans will
name Senators Cameron and Platt for the
two places nt their disposal and the demo
crats would probably select Senator Daniels
as their additional representative. Senators
Wolcott and Lodge are slated for foreign
relations The membership of the Judiciary
committee has been but slightly dlscusseJ.
WHERE THURSTON COMES IN.
There are. two vacancies there , and it is
possible they may be given to Senators Da\ls
and Thurston , or to Thurston and some other
now man. There are four new places to be
filled on commerce , but nothing Is certain
about the filling of these , except that onei of
the places will go to a Pacific coast membar ,
probibly Senator Squire. Senator Mitchell , as
chairman of the > caucus committee , 'nas been
devoting himself to procuring data fcr t'lo
guidance of the committee's deliberations. He
finds theio are forty-six standing nnd four
teen bcl'ct committees. At present the dem
ocrats control forty-six of the committees ,
the republicans nine nnd the popull'ts five
There nro fifteen new jepubllcan senators
who have no committee assignments. In the
event of the republicans being allowed to
crginlz" they will have a chairmanship for
each republican senator , with one to spare ,
ever after the Utah senators s'inll take their
belts.

WASHINGTON , Dec. S The house pro
gram this vuck is a dreiry waste. Until the
commltteeD arc appointed the machinery of
the house is blocked and nothing can be
3ono save by unanlmous. cont.ent. Any reso-
tlon that might be presented and it is In
this form tint the seiiHitloni that agltat ?
the lower branch of congress are usually
sprung would go down before a single ob
jection. Par thlu reason no attempt will be
inado to do anything until Speaker Reed an
nounces hlii commutes , which he now ex
pects lo have ready at the end ot the week.
There probably will be but three brief se -
blonn this week. When the house meets to-
inoirow an adjournment will bs taken until
\VedneeJay or Thursday , and from that date
until Saturday , when the committees will be
innounced. The indications are that prac
tically nothing can be done In tlTo way of th ?
: oigderatlon | of actual legislation until after
the holidays. However , the congressional
hoppers ) are filling up preparatoiy to the
grinding tint will follow Inter Last week
32\eral hundr d bills were Intteduced , and It
is probable that fully an many will bo started
an their Journey to the statute books this
aesk As the piesldent Is absent on his
hunting trip , there Is no probability that the
reply to Lord Salisbury to Secretary Olney's
lote regarding the Venezuelan boundary dis
pute will b sent to the house this week
There may bi an attempt , through a resolu
tion , to procure from Secretary Olney ths
lo ter sent by him to the English premier
3st July and Lord Salisbury's reply received
yesterday , but should tuch an attempt b ;
made It will unquestionably prove abortive
The adoption of mich a resolution would r-
iure ! unanimous consent , and there Is no
loubt some friend nf ths administration who
ivould object to It as lacking In deference to
the pret'.dent In bis absence , and the fact
that Mr. Cleveland In his mefngo advised
congress thit he would tend the reply to con
gress with a special meiaige will doubtless
b3 cited as an additional reason why It would
not be good taste to make a demand on the

by the speaker , after a conference with tin
three delegaten , who are In the city. Al

Day before yctteiday , says the Bnffalc
Express ( her ? was a man at the Mnnsloi :
Hou e fresh from the lively scenes at Crlppli
Cieelc , where ttuy have been mlnliif
$1000.000 worth of gold a month. This mar
was Thomas McNamara , one of the oldesl
prospectors of the west. Twenty years ngc
he was wandering from place to place througl
the Rockies , looking for gold , and all those
years ho has been looking for It In vain
But he has nevei swerved from his pur
pose. Once a prospector , always n prospec
tor. Is the rule In Colorado , and when n mar
ones s ° ts ont to look for gold he usually
keeps at It for the rest of his life , even thougl
he meets with not the slightest success tc
encourage him This has been the case will
McXamara. He is quite well-to-do now , bul
not because he has found gold. He has made
hid money by speculating In Cripple Creel
stocks. He had some Interesting things tc
tell an Express reporter about the booming
mining camp. He went there as soon as tin
rush s ° t In , four years ago. He hag beer
there ever sine. ? . He has seen the grow 11
of the wonderful little town from Its be
ginning When ho went there , there wren
only a few scattered houses. Now there an
hotels , banks , theaters , electric lights , rail
roads and eveiy thing that belongs to any
other thriving town.
"I knew a woman during ray first few
months ? there , " snld' ' the < old. prospector ,
"who had three small children on her hand )
to support and hardly a dollar to buy fooi
for them. Her husband had dlcl a short
time before , and she- had been left up In thai
lonely country without anyone , to look tc
for help Her little pile of money got lowei
and lower , and she began/ tri wonder wlnl
was to become of her. It was n bard posi
tion for a woman to bo 4n In. that plac.3 ,
Everybody --around her was making money ,
Halt the poor people who , hadi come there
with hir husbanj weie getting rich She
began to wonder If there was not some way
for her to maks money , toi One day , when
almrst nil her money had gonei one of her
children came running Into the , houyu with
a handful of glistening dirt. She looked It
over carefully , nnd she fount ! that the dlrl
was full ot specks of gold , Sheofiot the child
to show her the spot where hs had got It ,
and there she found that the ground was full
of specks of gold She went back to the
house and found a shovel. Then sh ? began
to dig. She washed out the dirt and founJ
that she had a small handful of gold , enough
to pay her month's rent nnd to buy food for
weeks to come. , She set het children to dig
ging. They kept It up day after day. Th ° y
found enough gold to keep them In comfort ,
and in three or four months sbb had about
$200 saved up That was at the beginning
of the placer mining In the place where
her child found the gold there ore scoies
of placer holes , and an enormous amount ot
gold Is being washed out. The land Is all
controlled by certain Investors , who have
the'r machines nt work on It , but awhile
ago anybody in town could go there and
dig and make $1 or $5 a day without work
ing very hard So It was impossible for any-
able-bodied person to bo out of money then
"I knew Stratton , the owner cf the Inde
pendence mine , when he hod hardly a cent
to his name. That was only four years ago
I used to leave my s'ioe-5 with him to be
fixed. Stratton Is making $100,000 a month
and he owns the richest mine In th" camp
He has so much money that he doesn't
know what to do with It. He Is n man of
s'mple- ' habits , not used to spending much
money and It simply worries film to know
how to dlbposo of any part of his Income ,
nr even how to Invest It. Th * Colorndo-
college people nro nfter him to get him to
give some money to the college , and he
doesn't know whether to give ( hern anything
or not. Ho Is tie most pnzzleJ man I ever
saw. It Is Just as If n tramp should sud-
Jenly come Into possession of a million. Th °
Irnmp might blow bis money foolishly , but
Stratton Is a conscientious , business-like
man , and he wants to use his money lo the
l ) = st advantage. Pom yeira ago he used to
live down on one of the little side streets
3f Colorado Springs , over his shoe-shop ,
In two or thre ? dingy little rooms. Todav
lie IIHH one of the finest houses In the town
ip In the millionaires' district.
"Pour years ago I knew a dozen poor young
nen In Colorado Springs und the surround-
ng towns , who were struggling along on
i few dollars n week , all of whom are now
rich. They went to the camp just when the
joom began. "

It Is Just an well that the police and the
insurance companies object to bonfires on
; lcctlon days , indifferent to the fact that
street urchins ore simply reviving ths rites
if Baal and Moloch. When Christianity
ruled , says the New Yorlc Tlmey , old ways
ind customs could not pe abolished , and so
: he heathen , still hankering after the- ancient
Icltles , but half controlltd by pope or bishop ,
made their fires on the eye a St , Peter or
3t , John. One use of bonfires.n | the not so
Far distant pat > t was at > a means of disinfec
tion. In bis "History of tlie Plague , " Defoe
: : lls of bonflrts In London's streets. There
s reason to buppose that , in kindling such
Ires there way still a rorjinanl of euperstl-
' .lon left , It was In a measure1 a sacrifice to
llaal. As to the cxcellenc'ef'tif ' the method
if making fires to drive uwiiy ii plague , tha
> enoIH would be questionable1 Anyhow U
nay be dwelt upon as the' Earliest effort
undo toward cremation , foi"ltQwnB of some
slight use when an lnfectc d"nilghborliood

then the remedy might hus'e'beten worn'than

Republican Leaders of Iowa Seek Escapi

DES MOIN'ES. D-e S ( Sp clalWhle ) i
is conceded tlmt tin leaders of the rcpnbllcii
piriy have decided to throw prohibition ovr
boird and divorce the party from thN | ui
for all time there Is very wide dlftcrcnc
of opinion , especially among the rcpubll at
members of the next IrgUlntuie , ns to tin
best method of accomplishing this result
Th ? prohlblto"y law was kept on the n'ntuti
books solely by the republicans for ten jfji' '
and many of Its provisions still remain It
fotce
During thl time the patty mnjoilty Kep
dwindling awny until It finally dNippeir" *
altogether. Tac pnitlal tilumph of demuciarj
at last aroused the republicans , nnd the mule
law wis the result. To perfect thU mniwin
and pass an net nuthorirlng the imiiMf"luri
of alcoholic' llquots for legnl purposes nr <
among the important in.Ufrs that will cngagi
the attention of thu coming sr < slon of tin
leglshture.
In older to secure the pas'agot 'he mil P
bill by the lower house it the last sess'Ion I
became neceisary to make at least a qins
piomlcc to the radical prohibition republican !
to resubtnit the whole qu tloii of piuhibitbt
In the form ot constitutional atub-vlmen
to a vote of the people , and a to'olutlon 01
this character was adopted In order tc
give effect to this agreement It will be n ce
sary for the coming legislature to ratify thli
resolution and IK u time for the vote tc
be taken
Some of the ultra-prohlbltlonlsis elected tc
the next house , under the lead of John ll'im
Punk of Hirdln county , have announced thai
the passage of the rcsubmlsslon resolution is
the only legislation on the subject that wll
meet their approval , and that they will bit
terly oppose a manufactures bill and al
efforts lo modify the harsher features of the
mulct law. They will Insist on letting tlu
riulct law stand until the people have an
other opportunity to vote upon the questlor
of constitutional amendment
The last state convention left the whole
matter to the legislative districts , so thai
both elements In the legislature will b ? untrammeled -
trammeled by pirty plct'ges A careful can
vas's of the members-elect shows very clearly
that neither side can secure the necessity
fifty-one votes In the lower house to carry oul
Its program without democratic assistance
A further compromise or n union of the lib
eral republicans with the democrats Is the
solution.
If the prohibition element should be suc
cessful in securing control of the lower house
nnd thereby blocking furlher legislation In
line with the mulct law , overtures would un
doubtedly be made to democrats to Join
forces and dispose of prohibition at once and
forever. Just how far the democrats will
go toward bringing abaut this end Ib a mattoi
for conjecture.
Te rcaubml1 prohibition and reopen nn agl
tatlon upoik this question Just now on the
eve of a presidential election , and with nn
Iowa candldite In the person of Senator Alli
son , In the field seeking a nomination , seems
to the average republican to be the height ol
folly. To DOS pore the vote till aftei the
election of the president would not help
matters , espclally If Allison should bs the
candidate The only safev course , therefore ,
should It become necessary to resubmlt , would
bo to fix the time , nt the earliest possible
date and have the "question out of the way
bsfore the presidential campaign fairly opens.
