"Can a man run about the streets with n
gun In his hands ready to chool any ono
ho pleases ? " demanded Mrs. Nora Mycr of
Chief of Police Slgwart early yesterday
afternoon.
The iiucry wnu Inspired by the refusal ol
the chief and other police ofllcorD to arrest
the womnn's husband without an Information
having been filed. She alleged that at noon
yesterday he rushed Into the ofllco on the
third floor of the Knrbncli block , where she
was employed , nnd threatened to shoot her.
Jealousy was the motive of the threat.
Mr. and Mrs. Mycr were married In Mem *
phltf. Tcnn. , laK May. She alleges that ho
told her then that ho was quite well-to-do
and fully able to provide for all of her wants
After the marriage ceremony he give her
Jl" and Informed her that ho Intended to
hustle and earn fomc more money. She
mys that she afterward discovered that $17
comprised all of ! IH ! wealth and 'that ho has
mndo no effort slnro lei Increase It.
The Mycr ease first came under the no
tice of the police about thrcn months ago
when the husband wroteirom Memphis
asking the authorities to locate his wife
Mrs. Nora Mycr , ami his brothcr-ln-law
Rlley , whom , he wrote , had eloped. The
man and woman were found on Nortl
Seventeenth street , where they rrsldct
under the name of Mr. and Mrs. Rlley
Mycr wns Informed of the fact and nskei
Hint they be sent to the penitentiary at
once , but the police refused to do this with
out his assistance. As a consequence Mycr
came to this city. Instead of placing him
self In communication with the police , he
went directly to the house where the runa
way couple were living. They put him offer
for a day. and when he ! returned he founi
that they had gone. They were again lo
cated , this time In the north end of the city
Mycr ranged warrants to bo Issued for their
arrest , charging adultery , but the cnso was
never prosecuted , because ho and his wife
tnndo up. Since then they have been living
together on Dodge street. The husband has
not been working , but Mrs. Mycr aecurci
a position with a dressmaker In the Kar
bach block. She snys that her husband Is
very Jealous of her and has accused her o
meeting mrn whllo she was away , osten
slbly at work. Out of this Jealousy Mycr's
act yesterday morning nroso.
Iloth Mycr and his wife have had ex
tensive matrimonial experience. Mycr Is
eald to have had two wives before , both ol
whom arc dead. Mrs. Mycr was married tea
a man whose name was also Mycr. Ily the
latter the had two children , who ore at
present with her mother In Memphis. One
of these children sent a letter to the chlel
of police a few days ago , asking if there
was nny truth In the report that the father
wns In nn Insane asylum In this city.
Mrs. Mycr has been referred to the legal
department of the city nnd county with In
structions to cause the arrest of her hus
band , but she Is not Inclined to throw bin

_ Tlie "curfew ordinance. " wns knocked out
In ono round by Judge Ilakor of llic
criminal court yesterday morning , and
Ijoys undur 10 years of ago nm >
roam tlio streets of Omalm after 9
o'clock p. in. without fear of molcst.itlon
liy tlio police and without being accompanied
by a cliapcrone. The oullnance was dcclnrecl
to be unconstitutional , for the reason that I' '
conflicts with the flntiltoj of this Elate , and
the cnso ngnliist Rons Crone was ordered
dismissed.
The ordinance originated with Colonel
Alexander Helgoland , the "newsboys' friend , "
nnd was Introduced In the city council by
F. U. ICcnnard. The essence of the ordi
nance Is contained In the first two sections ,
which nre as follows :
"Section 1. It Is hereby made unlawful for
any person under 15 years of ago to be or
remain In or upon any of tlio streets , alleys
or public places In the city of Omaha , Neb. ,
at night after the hour of 9 o'clock p. m. ,
from March 1 to August .11 , Inclusive , ol
each year ; and from September 1 to the last
day of February , inclusive , of each year ,
after the hour of 8 o'clock p. in. , unless sncli
person Is accompanied by a parent , guardian ,
or other person having the legal custody ol
such minor person , or is In the performance
of an crrcnd or duty directed by such patents ,
guardian or other person having tlio care am !
custody of such minor person , or whosi
employment makes It necessary to bo upon
said streets , alleys or public places during
the night time after said specified hours.
Provided , this exception shall not apply
when the person under tmch age shall bo
playing or unnecessarily loitering In or upon
any such street , ally or public place , whether
alone or accompanied by a parent , guardian
or any person or persons whomsoever. Any
person violating the provisions of this section
shall on conviction , bo lined In uny sum tenet
not exceed $10 , for each offense , and stand
committed until such line and costs ara
paid.
"Ssc. 2. It Is hereby made unlawful for
any parent , guardian or other person having
the legal care and custody of any pemji
under 15 years of age , to allow or penult
any puch child , ward or other person undei
such agewhllo In such legal custody , to goer
or bo In or upon any of the stresls , alleys
or public places in said city within the time
prohibited In flection 1 of this ordinance , 1111-
loM there exists a reasonable neceiulij
therefor. Any pcrton violating the pro
visions ? of this poctlon dull , on conviction
bo fined in any sum not exceeding $25 for
each ofTcnsc , aud stand committed untl
such fine and costs arc paid.
The ordinance was passed March 17 , 1S9G
but was vetoed by the mayor. The veto wa >
overridden by tlio council , and the ordi
nance became a law March 2J.
The only arrest made under this ordinance
was that of Ilos Crone , a boy about 8 yean
old. Ho was convicted In the police court ,
and Attorney Glair offered his services to
carry the case to the district ccurt , whore
ho said he was confident ho could have the
ordinance declared unconstitutional. Clalr
signed an appeal bond for Crone and the
boy was released.
Early this week a motion to dismiss the
case on the ground that the ordinance
was unconstitutional was argued before -
fore Judge llakcr and a decision
was rendered yesterday morning. In
passing upon the mellon Judge llakcr
said that under the statutes of the
state a Justlcu of the pence or judge of any
minor court cannot sentence any person un
der the ago of 1C years for the commission
of any crime.
"It seems to have been the Intent of the
legislature , " said the judge , "that persons
under the age of 1C ycara shall not be Im
prisoned In a city or county jail. If the
Judge of a minor court finds a prisoner guilty
of a crlmo he must send the person nnd the
papers to the district court. The district
court can then do just one thing. If the
judge of the court finds that the defendant
is a proper subject for the reform school he
must send him there ; if ho finds to the con
trary , the defendant must be discharged.
This ordinance provides a line of $23 for Its
violation , the defendant to etand committed
to jail until the fine and costs arc paid.
Such provision Is directly contrary to and
In conflict with the statute * ) and the ordi
nance Is therefore void and of no effect. Tht
case is therefore dismissed. "

An Item In the Lincoln dispatches yester
day morning contained a statement to
the effect that the attorney general
had moved for a dismissal of the
appeal to the supreme court In
the case of Henry Bolln , convicted of
embezzlement while occupying the ofllco of
city treasurer of Omaha. It was stated that
the ground for .tho motion was the fact that
the necessary papers In the case had not
been flled within the tlmo fixed by the
supreme court.
J. W. West , ono of the attorneys In the
Ilolln. case , was asked yesterday morn
ing why the appeal had not been
perfected within the necessary time.
Ho stated that the case had been
delayed by a decision rendered by the
euprenio court In the case of Hockenborger
against the state. The papers had all been
ready to file , Mr. West stated , when the
supreme court handed down a decision In
the case referred to , which opinion had a
most important bearing on the Ilolln case.
Hockcnberger was treasurer at Grand
Island and was convicted of embezzlement.
Ho appealed the case to the supreme court
and tlio finding of the lower court was
reversed , the reversal 'turning on a point
which was an exact parallel with some of the
testimony In the Ilolln case. This made It
necessary , the attorney said , to remodel the
brief already prepared and had caused a
delay. He eald ho had no doubt the euprenio
court would grant further tlmo for filing tlio
papers.

At the meeting of the Hoard of Public
Works yesterday forenoon a committee- from
Central Labor union , consisting of A. Miller
and J. C. Donahue , appeared to protest
against the practice of allowing the chain
; ang to remove , frco of'charge , cinders from
jutldlnga. This wati considered antagonistic
to tlio ethics of organized labor , as It pre
vented men from doing the work who could
earn a llttlo money by It. The chairman
of the board was Instructed to put a stop
to the practice.
The board spent over an hour In dlscudslng
.ho claim of C. A. Jensen of nearly 72,000
alleged damages on account of the change
of grade on Lake street. This Is an o.U )
natter that has been before the board forever
over a year and It Is now proposed to din-
) oeo of It In some way. Jensen was the
contractor on the street and notno tlmo after
the contract was lot the board decided to
change the grade. Jensen wati ordered to
stop work and was kept off the street until
after the change had been effected. Ho
claimed damages on account of the alleged
fast that his men and teams wcro kept Idle
on account of the change , for which ho was
not responsible. Yesterday morning the
nombcrfi of the board expressed themselves
n favor of allowing Jensen somu part of
its claim It It could bo done legally , and
the matter was finally referred to the city
attorney for his opinion.

A small amount of routine business ,
II. S. Thames , Who has been airing lu the
newspapers a grievance against the city elec
trician , submitted a letter asking permis
sion to address the board on the subject of
charges ho had mndo against Mr. Schurlg
In n former letter In connection with the
wiring of the county hospital , In which ho
stated that the wiring was not In compli
ance with the specifications and that Schurlg
had winked at the violation.
Williams moved that the request bo
granted , but Klcistcad opposed such action ,
saying the board had glvm the party a
chance to como before It and make nny
statement he saw fit , but he hod not taken
advantage of It. The speaker said ho did
not think It was within the province of the *
board to furnish a hall and an audience be
fore which Thomas could nlr his grievance
against the city electrician.
Stcnberg said ho was In favor of a full
Investigation of all Irregularities , but did no
think the board shnitld listen In public t'
random charges. He moved that Thomas
bo requested to submit In writing an >
charged he may have to make , and the
board would then have something to act on
