Council Bluffs officers yesterday arrestci
a burglar of some ability If not note.
Early In the week the office of Dr
Rebcrt , In the Continental block , Omaha
was robbpcPat night and a lot of valuabli
stuff stolen , Including a gold watch , sonu
jewelry , a largo bottle partly filled will
morphine , a fine opera glass and $8 In cash
When Dr. Rebcrt made n survey of UK
premises on the morning after the burglary
he noticed a little pasteboard check lylnt
on the floor , and found it was a watcl
check Issued from the rcp.ilr department ol
M. Wollman's jewelry store In this city
It wns numbered 1,186. The doctor tnrnec
this over to the Omaha police and it nftordci
the only Clew the officers had to work upon
Omaha detectives c.imo over yesterday morn
Ing and with a local officer visited AVoll.
man's place , nnd It was found that the
watch for which the check had been giver
had been called for and the duplicate num
ber thrown away. The duplicate check con
tained the number and discretion of tht
watch and It It could bo found It wouli !
throw a great deal of light upon the Omaha
burglary. After a long search the mlssliif
check was found. Reference to the books
showed that the watch had been left foi
repairs by a woman who gave the name ol
G. L. Martin , one of the members of the
police force. Officers Martin was called upon
for an explanation , nnd It wns readily given ,
The watch had been left fdV repairs by ji
> oung woman who Is visiting at the resi
dence ot the officer , nnd when she called
for It on Monday evening she left the check
on Wollmar.'s show case. Wollman recalled
the fact that a man was In the store at
the tlmo who had ficqucntly been there
before trying to sell bils of jewelry nnd
old gold , and he recalled that a barber em
ployed at the Metropollan hotel had passed
the man and spoke to him familiarly.
RECALLED BY THE BARBER.
The barber waa hunted up nnd from him
It was learned that the man was a guest of
the hotel. Ills room was searched and a
largo bottle that had contained morphine
was found. The label had been carefully
scratched off and every identifying mark
removed , except on the bottom where the
numbera , " 101767 , " written with Ink , had
been overlooked. The bottle was sent over
to Dr. Robert and he promptly Identified It as
the one that had been stolen when his office
was robbed. This fixed suspicion on the
Metropolitan's guest , and caicful Inquiries
were made concerning him. Ho came to
the hotel on September 2 , and registered as
Ed D. Glaze , Wllcov , Neb. , and has been a
guest there over since. He went to Lake
Manawa yesterday afternoon to fish , and
officers went after him. They were unable
to find him , but continued to watch trains
from the lake. When the S o'clock train
came in they were icwardcd by getting
their man. Ho was taken to the nearest
patrol box , nnd while waiting for the wagon
the officers searched him. Every pocket
In his clothes was filled with jewelry and
plunder of all descriptions , among it nearly
everything stolen from the Omaha doctor.
At the station a more careful search was
made which brought to light still more stuff
and a flue pocket set of burglar tools and a
big bunch of keys of almost every common
make and pattern. Several packages of
morphlno In tablets and a small bottle filled
with the drug were also found. A hypo
dermic syringe showed how the fellow had
administered the drug to himself. He Is
n "morphine fiend" In an advanced stage.
Just before he was locked up he seized the
bottle and poured out nearly a teaspoonful
of the powder In his hand and swallowed
it.
When confronted with the proofs of his
guilt Glaze admitted It , but refused to talk
any further than to say that he came here
from Creston.
When he flrst came to the hotel ho ap
peared to be very lame , and let It be under
stood that he was here for the purpose of
taking treatment for rheumatism. He went
to bed each evening very early , and the
hotel people could not believe It was possl-
blo that he could get away during the night
without their knowing It. In the plunder
recovered Is a lot of stuff that has not been
Identified. _ _

In making the voynno northward from
Seattle , says the Alaska News , one has
scarcely left the waters of Pugct sound before -
fore great patches of snow are perceptible
on the hlghc&t of the peaks ot the colossal
range of mountains bordering the Inland
passage. These gradually grow larger and
larger as the steamer wends her way to the
north , and soon HIP loftiest peaks , both In
land and toward the sea , are seen robed In
glistening garments of purest white. Two
clays' travel brings ono well Into Alaskan
waters , nnd by the aid of n good glass , and
not Infrequently with the naked eyes , a close
observer will discern the blue Ice of glaciers
peeping from under the lower edges of the
snow banks. Lower nnd lower these descend
as the stcame'r crawls onward , until the
northcnmost point on the route Is reached ,
where they come down to the ocean level.
Here , In a beautiful little bay , doited with
a thousand Icebergs , some of them higher
than the topmost mast of the ship , great
walls of deep-blue Ice form the shoies ; lonfi
arms of this Ice break from the mother lode ,
as It were , and etrctch far back Into the
mountains , where at the crest of the range
they reunite , and running northward form
Into a continuous chain of glaciers that
line that portion of Alaska's coast
for many hundred miles. This llt
tlo fairy land Is called Glacier bay ,
and the most attractive feature Is the Muir
glacier , the grandest of all the group ,
named In honor ot Mr. John Muir , who upon
the last excursion of the Queen again vis
ited the bay and beheld the mountain of
Ice which will perpetuate his name while
time lasts. In matchless beauty , unpara-
Iclcd grandeur nnd colossal structure It sur
passes anything of- Its kind on the American
continent. This great mass Is constantly
moving and as It debouches Into the sea
liuge pieces break from , the front , and , as
thunderbolts from heaven , they drop Into
the waters , rolling up great waves and mak
ing a nolso like booming of heavy artillery.
These pieces float away as Icebergs and are
carried many miles to sea before they finally
are ground and melted Into their original
fluid state.
Visible to the north and west , fronting on
the sea. are among the grandest peaks on
the globe. Lituya peak , 10,000 feet high ;
Mount Crlllon , 15,900 feet ; Mount Fair-
weather , 14,708 feet ; thence farther north
sublime Mount St. Ellas , the giant sentinel
of the Rockies , towers nearly 20,000 feet
above the ocean tlmt thunders at Its base.
How Inexpressibly grand Is this hoary-
headed monster , fflr every foot of his sides
Is In mountain slope he bathes his brow.
In the clouds and washes his feet In the sea.
No human being has ever planted foot on
the summit of this mountain , although va
rious attempts have been made by hardy ex
plorers. Lying between the sea and the
base of the mountain , perhaps three-quarters
of a mile In width , Is a level and thickly
timbered piece of land ; from this bench the
mountain rises gradually to the tim
ber line , approximately 1,000 feet. Here
the line ot perpetual snow begins and the
slope grows gradually steeper ; soon the
blue Ice Is seen under the snow , and a
little farther up the entire face ot the
mountain Is a glistening mass. This Ice ex
tends to within 5,000 feet ot the summit ,
where the crowning peak rises nearly per
pendicular and assumes the form of a lofty
watch tower upon the walls of nil ancient
castle. Snow and Ice do not Ho on the
peak , except on the extreme top , for the
reason the sides are too steep. Probably
only by aerial means could the summit be
reached , and , even If that were possible ,
It Is doubtful If any human being could
survive the terrible cold which would be
encountered in that great altitude. This
mountain Is held In great esteem nnd awe
by the native Indian tribes. Jt Is their
great weather prophet , and by certain cloud
signs they know when they can with safety
undertake the Journey along the "Iron
bound coast , " a dangerous stretch of water
running from Cape Spencer northward to
Yakutat bay , along which distance the
mountains break sheer Into the sea.
The entire length of the Inland passage ,
1,100 miles , Is heavily timbered with spruce ,
hemlock , plno and both yellow and red cedar.
Great avalanches of snow have swept down
the mountains here and there , and In their
track long streaks of timber have been
mowed down as a sickle would so much
ripe grain , At Intervals Indian villages dot
the shores , resting moat picturesquely upon
narrow shelves just at the end of the water.
These nomads of the northwest spend two-
thirds ot their lives out of doors in their
canoes , which are their only means of travel
and with which they obtain their livelihood
from the sea , Throughout the entire stretch
of country travel by land Is almost Impossi
ble , owing to the dense timber and under
brush that cover the entire face ,
To the desclples of Isaac Walton these In
land waters and their tributaries offer every
thing from the small oollchans and herring
to monster halibut , sharks and whales. The
shores of Innumerable bays will bo found
by the hunter to contain myriads of ducks ,
geese and other water fowl. In the forestu
he will meet mcose , caribou and bear In
sufficient numbers to satisfy the most ardent ,
and the Alpine climber who has ascended
the Matterhorn can hero find mountain peaks
whose summits have never yet felt the touch
of an alpenstock.

While Locust and Broad streets In the
neighborhood of the Hotel Walton were
: rowded the other afternoon , says the Phila
delphia Times , with the many who were
anxious to catch u glimpse of Viceroy LI
Hung Chang , and the police under Cap
tain Malln struggled to keep the crowd in
order , five young women stood in the front
line near the Locust street entrance to the
hotel , a llttlo the worse for the crowding
they had received , but still determined to
set their eyes upon the yellon Jacket of the
Illustrious Chinaman. They had been look
ing wistfully toward the swinging doors
3f the hotel entrance for about ten min
utes when Captain Malln called his men
to ono side to give them further Instruc
tions.
Just at this moment one of the young
ivomen spied the viceroy's chair of state
! n Iho hotel corridor. In a second she had
breathlessly Informed her companions of
this fact , and with a dlvo and a rush the
live had skipped by the policemen and were
up the steps and In the corridor. Each sat
upon the plush-covered .seat upon which
: ho viceroy reclines as ho Is carried about
ho streets , and then turned their attention
: o relic hunting. The police still had their
jacks turned , and the laughing-eyed , rosy-
: hccked vandals proceeded to tear off llttlo
[ ilecea of the cushions and hanging. They
tiroke off several Inches of the bamboo about
ana of the legs , and weru about to help
hemselves to more when the policemen ,
laving received their Instructions , returned
o duty , One of the big bluccoats saw the
; lrls and started toward them , but he had
jec-n seen first , and to a chorus of little
ihrleks the girls fled down the steps and out
Into the crowd , still clutching the relics
) f the viceroy's visit they had purloined.

Ing considering ; the jlarge amount ot nioncy
handled. n , .
, - Nbw , qeeln r rthat there la no department
'of the piib'llc service 'of thV United States
which works more smoothly , than that of the
postofllce , and none in which the people at
large repose greater confidence , It may well
be a matter of surprise that with such a
stimulating example on the immediate north
ern border of this country neither of the
old political parties should have sought to
popularize Itself \vlth the worklugmen and
the agricultural classes by proposing to
adopt a system which has proved so emi
nently beneficent wherever put in opera
tion. At this very time , when the with
drawal of gold from the United States sub-
treasuries for "hoarding" Is the constant
theme of newspaper dispatches and when
the exportation of gold to foreign countries
appears to have been temporarily checked ,
all will be disposed to admit that domestic
withdrawals of money from circulation Is
one of the causes contributing to the "hard
times" which are so generally complained
of. If a comparatively poor and undevel
oped country like Canada , with a population
of less than G.000,000 , Is able to place In the
safekeeping of its government an aggregate
of small deposits at 3 % per cent Interest
amounting to a total of $28,805,512.47 , It
may be reasonably argued that a rich and
highly developed country like the United
States , having a population of nearly 70-
000,000 , might be expected under normal
conditions to place at least $375,000,000 under
the care of Undo Sam , The opinion has
also been offered that In times of financial
ilrnln , such as have been lately experienced ,
the government of the country would ac
quire renewed strength by the depositing
In the postal savings banks at a low rate
sf Interest of extra largo amounts now be
ing hoarded unprofltably , but which seri
ously , by withdrawal of needed specie cur
rency from circulation , embarrasses busl-
ticss men and manufacturers and throws
ivorkliiKinen by , thousands out of employ
ment.
The system could bo put gradually In opera
tion , bv authority of congress , by a mere
wave of the postmaster general's pen , as all
the requisite machinery la already In exis
tence and the officials who would bo responsi
ble for Its working are trustworthy and
already bonded officers of the United States
government. All that would be required
would bo to furnish a supply of books and
forms and Issue the necessary Instructions.
A beginning would naturally bo made with
first and second class postofllces , but the
system could be gradually extended until
Bvery postmaster at present Intrusted with
the duty of Issuing and paying money orders ,
under authority .of the department , would
find further employment and Increased re-
tnu'neratlon In receiving deposits of the
savings of the people and paying such sums
is they from tllt } to time desired.
HOW IT COULD HE DONE.
Every postoflicje , ' 3iow transacting money
) rdcr buslnesBowouJd In due course bo an-
: horleil to recclve-uleposlts and make pay-
nenta of withdrawals. Deposits of $1 , or of
my number of.'dolJars. would bo received at
my such postnOJco . during regular hours ,
vlth the probahlwillmltatlon that the do-
loslts by ono depositor In any year should
lot exceed $1,0 $ ) 'pr , the total amount stand-
ng In his iiiuiiui he permitted to exceed
:3,000. : Every ( depositor , on flrst opening
in account , wqflW.'bo required to make a
leclaratlon onrV.ff' Ascribed form furnishing
iccessary Inforrqation for the official rec-
irdsvhcreup9ii4 b ? or she would be 'fur-
ilshed with a Dfsstook / showing tbo amount
if the first Binu.jCAtered . on the credit side ,
cilded , as to place and date , by affixing of
ho regular stann.7Psuch ) postoffice. There-
iftcr the depositing would bo free to con-
Inue making future deposits at that or any
ither postolllco'e'vHhout notice or change of
iass book , For Instance , If hla first deposit
vere made In a branch postoffice In Chicago ,
ho depositor might afterward add to lib ) ac-
lount by making deposits at , say , Itluc 1s-
and , Chicago Height * or New York , by get-
Ing the local postmaster at either place to
iiako a prcper entry in his pass book and
nix the olllclal stamp , showing place and
late of payment. As a check upon the regu-
arlty of the entry and the Integrity of the
ecclvlng postmaster or his clerk , If the do-
losltor should not within a few days re-
elvo from Washington a direct acknowl-
dgment by mall of advice of his latest dc-
lovlt having reached them , It would bo his
luty at once to. notify the postmaster gen-
ral of such omission. As regards Interest
the rate of which would be declared from
Una to time by poatofflce regulations within
ertaln llmlu fixed by acts of congress ) , that
Yould be calculated yearly and "be com-
lUted from the first day of the calendar
nonth next following the day on which the
leposlt is made up to the flrst day of the
alcndar month ia which moneys arc with
drawn. " Such Interest would be cnletilalr
to , gay , June 30 In every year Mid then b
added to anil become part of the prlnclpi
money.
It Is always a puzzle to foreigners vKltlu
n great and prosperous country like th
United States how to account for the fac
that a postal savings bank system has neve
been adopted here. Three explnn tlon enl
have been given to the writer , which mn
bo tabulated In probable order of importanc
as follows :
1. Want of knowledge and of conscqucn
appreciation on the part of cltliona nt larg
of the beneficent effect of the catabllrhmrn
of such a system.
2. Unwillingness of the great capitalist
and banking Interests that the handling eon
on Important part ot the surplus earning
of the people should be taken out of thcl
control as concerned In providing what the
deem suitable Itucstments.
3. Opposition of the liquor dealers of al
grades and of certain classes of employer
to the establishment of a system whlc' '
tends to promote thrift and give to th
farmer and worklngmaii ready command c
cash that would make him a greater Indl
vldual power In the body politic and cstab

and the fat mon paraded to the sprlntliif
track. For the 100-yard dash thcrp were
ten entries. The only restriction upon en
tries Is the requirement that each con
testant weigh more than 200 pounds , the
welshing to take place after the dinner
All the members "weighed In , " but only

one whluh has the ball under It. The
"cappers" were recklessly venturing sums
varying from $1 to $ M to the infinite ad

Jeering derision of the small boys' fathers
and big brothers. The public entertainers
were so excited over their task ot lo'Ine

"I was sent out to the West End to sec a

putting It very mildly. I rode out to his
liouso only to find that the head of the
household and all the rest of It were away ,
lobody knew where. The neighbors thought
they had gone out of town.
"I got on a car and was headed down town
when I was Impelled by home queer Influ-

So far this year South Omaha has had
very few fires , considering Its sire and the
largo number of frame buildings . Up to the
present date the lire department has made
only thirty runs and In eight cases out
of this number there was no necessity for
throwing water. The total loss on buildings
up to date foots up to100 , and the lessen
on contents $4,115. In about half of the
fires the property damaged has been pro
tected by Insurance. Thrco cases ot In
cendiarism are reported on thp records ,
but In each of thcsp cases the matter has
been dropped by the police after the fire
chief had worked up the evidence. With
the water pressure agreed upon In the
contract the present fire department would
have no dllllculty In handling a pretty large
blaze.
llclil oil Suspicion.
Yesterday afternoon E. D. Dalsford and
J. 11. Uernard were arrested on suspicion.
The men were seen early In the morning In
the railroad yards and later In the day were
walking through the residence portion of the
city. Both wore good clothes and their
hands showed that they were strangers to
work. They had nothing to say when ar
rested , and refused to give any Information
about themselves , except that they came
hero to attend the fair. Balsford had $1.25
and Harnard 10 cents. The police are In
clined to think that the prlsoers arc sneak
thieves.
Mcrnxp for Slot Mne-liIIM-M.
The price of a license to operate a nlckcl-
in-the-slot machine has been reduced from
$10 to ? 5. Business men In whoso places
such machines were kept complained that
the price charged by the ordinance for a
license was too high and the mayor has
gianted a number of licenses at half the
amount specified by ordinance. It was
thought better to get a small amount when
it was certain that the larger amount would
not be paid.

City Clerk Carpenter Is preparing a
statement to be presented to the council ,
showing the apportionment ot money to
