Knspar Kaufmann has sued Douglas county
for $10,000 Injurlis alkgcd to have been re
ceived whllp In the cmploj of the county

Early In January , 1S95 , the Hoard of
County CommlBdloncrs decided to make an
c'ffort to rcaliro something In a substantial
way from the largo amount of money that
was being paid out for the relief ot the
nctily poor of the tlty who were receiving
old from the county In the way of coal and
provisions At that tlmo there was n strung
effort being made to have the county grade
South Thirteenth street , aw the commence-
mint of a boulevard to Port Ciook , and
the commissioners decided to require the
able bodied men who applied for assistance
to assist In the work of grading this street.
A foreman wan cmploj od and the appli
cants for relltf were put to work under
his direction The ground was frozen to n
considerable depth , and It was nccessarj
to proccid In much the same manner as Is
required to remove stone from n quarry
In making deep cuts the earth was exca
vated from beneath the frozen portion and
the latter was then broken off hj means
of wcdgi and crow barn Kaufmann nl-
ligcs that he was working In ono of th.ese
cuts and was Instructed by the foreman to
work under nn overhanging innsn of earth ,
the foreman telling him that ho would
give him warning If the gang working on
the surface came near where ho ( Kaufmanu )
was working Kaufmnnn alleges , however.
that the foreman did not warn him. and n
huge mass of fro/en earth fell on him
and a number of other workmen , burying
tlinn from sight Kaufmann alleges that ho
was very severely Injured , his right leg
bring broken near the ankle and his back
and side being Injured As a result of the
Injury ho sajs that ho Is unable to work
and earn a living for his wife and six chil
dren and asserts that ho will bo a helpless
cripple for life.

Perhaps the most really sensational sale
tint has c < cr taken place In this city Is the
ono that entails the closing out entirely ot
the Continental's tailoring department on
the Fccond floor.
Making any suit to order from any piece of
goods In the custom room for $25 00 Is an
mhe.aid of proceeding Tailors are em
phatic In the statement that It Is bcjond
human possibility to mnko to measure a
si'lt of elot'jen for $3500 IM alo.ir$2500 ,
nnd put In all the first-class trimmings and
llnlnp-j and the best workmanship that
the Continental cmplojs
This Is true as gospel but the Continen
tal are determined to close out this feature
of their business befoio January 1 , to make
room for a new clcrnrtmcnt , nnd they are
not going to allow the lost ) of dollars to
stand In the way.
Every night at closing tlmo the proprle-
torn say , "Well , aurely , everjbody has been
hero now , " but the next daj' and the next
are junt as rushing i.s at the start , for nil
rccognl7o the $40 , $50 and $ GO suits that
tailors usually mukc > In these suits at $25.
Ihln eholco of any ault made to order for
$2500 covers any piece of goods In the
store , but no dios-s cult or Prince Alberts
will bo made at this prlco. However , a
trlflo extra will secure even these , as well
cs rults for extra largo mm , who cannot
e-xpect from the nature of things to bo In

Mr. Schmltzbcrgcr , formerly with Ramgc ,
docs the cutting , a * ) usual.
The Continental has made almost as great
a reputation for fine tailoring , to order , as
thej have In their ready to wenr department.
There are * any number of people who cannot
bo fitted unless the tailor does It or at least
they think so and as a consequence the
Continental has been making suits for the
best cltlrcns of Omaha , who are taking ad
vantage of this chance to have made up to
their order any piece of goods In the store
for the ono prlco of $25. No full
suits. Of course this Is a cash deal.

Accoicling to Chief Iledell , the lire In the
Anson boarding stable near Sixteenth nnd
Leavenworth streets , which resulted In the
death of eight horses , was duo to a defective
chimney. It was found on Investigation
that a hole In the chimney on the second
floor had been stopped with a piece of plank
Sparks had eaten their way through the
board and Into the mass of hay that was
piled against It.
Chief Iledell thinks that some of the horrcs
might have been saved and the damage
lessened If the alarm had been turned In a
few minutes earlier , as the cmplojes could
easily have done. Instead of turning ; In the
alarm from a telephone located In the atablc ,
they ran a block to the nearest fire alarm
box. The few minutes gained thereby gave
the flro a big start.
"Peoplo forget that all they have to do Is
to call up telephone No. 37 and glvo the
location of n fire , " said the chief. "If they
would remember that and thus rave a fen
minutes , the fire losu would bo much
lessened. "

Inspector Towne , of contagious diseases , de
clares that rrany of the deaths that are re
ported as occurring from membranous croup
might bo prevented If people would get the
Idea Into their heads that membranous croup
Is diphtheria and send for a physician In
time. Thro" deaths have been reported In
the past three dajs nnd a personal investiga
tion of each case has established the fact
that In all human frobablllty the lives might
have been saved If the proper precautions
had been taken In time. Dr. Tow no holds
that the use of antl-toxlnc Is just as advis
able In the cases of so-called membranous
croup as In cases where the disease Is
called diphtheria. It Is so used In Chicago
and Nenv York , with the result that the
patients have recovered In nearly every
cane. Ho sajs that In caseu whcro there
U any doubt a phjslclan should be called at
once , as It Is essential that the treatment
should bo given before the disease has made
any progress. _

Although Danlior Henry W. Yatcs Is
usually with President Cleveland and the
present administration on the majority of
questions , ho does- not coincide with the
recommendations regarding national banks.
In > esterday morning's dispatches from
"Washington , wes > /given o synopsis of
a report from ' Comptroller Eckels.
Among ether things i Mr. Eckels
recommends that small Independent na-
_ tlonnl banks bo given permission to
establish In small towns upon a capital an
low as $25,000. Ho also recommended that
national banks In cities bo permitted to
establish branch banks In small to\vns * , which
shall have full powers of national banks
with the exception of Issuing currency.
"I would be opposed to the establishment
of national banks on small capital , "
said Mr. Yatts jesterday morning ,
"I think that there arc too many
national banks now. Such small banks
would bo unsafe * because the depositors
would not be given enough security by the
small capital Invested. I do think , however ,
that It would be a good plan to allen
substantial national banks to cstablitn
branches In the small towns , because then the
depositors In these small Institutions could
look to the parent bank for recompense In
cayo that the local Institution failed.
"Mr. Eckels' recommendations were cm-
bodied In President Cleveland's message.
I will give the administration credit In that
ho has faithfully given expression to the
sentiment of the majority of bankers on the
national banking system. I , however , do not
fully agree with bankers on this question and
therefore I am not In favor of all the recom
mendations. "
Mr. Yates stated , however , that ho has not
an jot had time to glvo the recommenda
tions full consideration.

ANOTHER GREAT SHOW
Omaha spells Supreme. She is the Real sure-enough
Thing. The mighty SAMSON , keeper of the Mystic Kcyy
has once more let loose his menagerie and the Mossbacli
Show towns of the effete East arc writhing in the con
vulsions of despair. The Feast of Mondamin , the Feast-
of Olympta and the twice triumphant Charity Circus havc ? >
shown resplendent in our midst and Omaha reads hctf
title clear as "The City of Unequalled Shows. " But
there are other shows , On the Southeast Corner of
Douglas and 141)1 ) Streets is a daily ; permanent , all-thcH
year-round Show. For eleven years it has excited the
admiration and appeased the curiosity of countless crowds
a-d today its charms are as resistless as the voice of
the Syren , and as real as the clinking of co'd ' cash. Here
arc a few of the attractions for this week : Men's genuine
all wool Cheviot Suits in fancy checks at Four Pollard
and Half. Men's fancy cheviot all wool Fly Front
Suits at 56.75. Men's all wool Kersey Overcoats at $4. 50
and men'shigli grade double faced Kersey Overcoats witli
full satin lined backs at 59. "jo " equal to the $15.00 coata
offered around town. These arc not fake attractions.
They are not imitation goods. They are not cheap catcli H
penny prices to j > t you to come inside , but they are thJ !
same genuine bona fide values which have made 'The Ne4
braska' famous , and they are hacked up by 'The Nebras '
ka' reputation of being a safe place to tnxdc. Are yoU
