The hack driver was standing In front of a saloon hear Twelfth anti Douglas sheets at 3 o'clock , 'when ho was hiniiel by two men from the opposite corner. lie crossed over and one of them inquired his price for a trip to Twenty-fourth street anti Ames avenue , hiurko said that ho wanted $2 , but the other remarked that Ito only had $1.50 and wanted very much : to get home. Burke finally agreed to thin price and throve the men to tim corner mentioned , whIch is a particularly macsaab spot. As the hack drew up to the sidewalk the men threw open the door and one stepped on the sidewalk , wIthin the other covered Ilurko with a revolver through the front window. The man outside then called Limo driver's attention to the revolver protruding from the window and told him to throw UI ) his hands. l3urIce had no weapon and complied , while the robber made a search of hiI pockets , The driver says that he hind been paying tinusuahly close attention to business , ha viev of the fact that hue had a note approaching date of payment and ho. had cpllected $14.25 as tue fruit of his night'3 work.'Then the robber had found Barke's. . money lie told his. companIon to got out , disregarding a considerable amount of jewelry about Burke's person. Then lie said to Burke , "Turn around and get on back to town and don't look nrouild , " Burke obeyed , but observed that time footpads ran west on Ames avenue. Thu robbers used no disguisv , except a heavy beard and nmoustnchie , vhichi the driver ijoticet ! became disarranged , as the spokesman talked. They were large finn , well dressed anti apparently Intelli- gent. Burke is confident that ho would iccognize LImo one that examined his cloth- ing. tarlicr in the evening men of the same description were seen by a block watchman iii a saloon .near Tenth and Dodge streets , where they were apparently trying to induce strangers to cuter a game of cards. Time watchman veit to notify a patrolman , but when time two returned tIme mcci hind tlisap- pearwl. Burke thinks that time robbers tony have observed him when lie entered time saloon to clangs a bill. The driver has beet : in Otnalmit for many years , and is one of the best kimowim hackmcn in time city.

WHAT OUR VISITORS SAY. .luiti itit'U t ( U 1ufutyete. Prof. Nightingale , the first Principal of time Omaha Public schools , how connected with the Iublic schools of Chicago anti who was one of the prominent educators connected - nected with the Educational convention held iii Omaha last week , is one of the most en- timusiastie orkers in the interest of time Lafayette monument ( coiL While the pro- fessor Is not the party who originated the plan to erect a monument to the nieniory of Lafayette , lie has done much to perfect the arrangeuments for raising money to place a shaft over time grave of the patriotic French- mann who did so much for thiis'country dun- ing the early days when it was sorely lb aced of help. Speaking of tIme plan for erecting a monument I'rof. Nlghteumgale said : "Every Anmerican should do sometimlng In this cause and I am of the opinion that a large number of theta wIll assist financially. "At this time time remains of Lafayette lie In a little cemetery near time city of l'nrls anti with time exception of a somali marble slab tIme grave is unnunrked. There Is no fence about the grave amid everything Is In a dilapidated condition. Time grave Is grown up to weeds and is uncared foP by anybody except. the sexton , who gives It little or no attention. It Is frequently visited by Amen- cans , but being unauthorized they do noth- lug toward amaking improvements or beautifying - tifying time spot. "Time society that has in view time erection of a nmonunieut. to time memory of the bravo young niarQmmls is taking steps to raise money among time pupils of the public schools of this country , The plan is to have a Lafayette ilay In the schools , a tiny upon which time chmiltlreim mimay contribute their pcnuies nnil duties nut lnrger suni It they so desire. This way we can raise a large sum of money , enough so that with the other money that we can secure by popular stubsorlption , we can erect a monument that will be a credit to the name of Lafayette. Tiiero will be no limit on the sum to ho contributed nnd If people desire they can give dollars Instead of pennies , "Some tinie this fall It is more than likely timat the committee will decide upon a Lafayette day , duo notice of which will be given in time , On that day we expect to receive time contributions , which after being secured yfl be sent to the agent appointed by time conmmittce. After enough money is raised to assure the success of the undertaking - ing , another committee vili ho appointed to consider time ways and means for carrying oat all of the details. Title hope to do this season so that we many begin work early next spring , The idea is to have the monument coaupleted at the time of the Paris exposition and unveil It at. that time. "Many Anmenicamme wili attend the I'anis exposition and It is our purpose to have an American day , a day wheu we can gather thousands of residents of the United States , Upon that occasion we will unveil the Lafayette - fayette monument and make the occasion otue of the most interesting and imupressiva of the exposition.

As the Pupils Passed iii atuut out into the wintry weather their eyes rested on the gccmm suggestions of the springtime.
