JOJOUM Scene oil Pnrnnni Street Which
mi HiithiiMlnNtlc Silver Man
Took for n Iliin on the
Morclinntis' Hani. .
A silver shouter who figured vociferously
( n the curbstone debates that characterized
the last presidential campaign stood on the
corner of Thirteenth and Karniini s1 eels
yesterday and wriggled and uqutimcd and
twisted In a veritable cotichcc couchco of de
light. A crowd of excited men were surging
against tbo doors of the Merchants' National
bank , which was just opening for business.
There were lnw > ers and business men , labor
ers and mechanics , all jostling each other
toward the head of the line ahd apparently
animated by some unusual motive. As the
big doors were opened they crowded through
and excitedly besieged the cashier's window.
That olllclal stood In front of hugo piles of
gold and bank notes and coolly surveyed tbe
mob that clamored excitedly on the other
Bide of the grating. The gyrations of the
calamity limn Increased in vigor and be
could DO longer contain himself.
"See there , see there , " be yelled exultlngly ,
"there Is jour SIcKlnlcy prosperity. It's a
run on the bank and these fellows that arc
telling us that tbe country Is prosperous arc
right In the push. I tell you wo can uover
have real prosperity uutll "
"Shut up , jou blooming Idiot , " advised a
man In blue overalls and with tbo smut of
the shops on his fare , "these are the stock
holders of the only exposition on earth that
over paid back dollar for dollar to its sub
scribers , and they are here to get their
coin. Sec ? "
The curbstone orator stared blankly ,
paspcd in a feeble effort to recover his
breath and then vanished softly and sadly
into the golden November ounshlne.
Ilniidliitf Out the CuHh.
Meanwhile the teller bohimi the grating
was rapidly examining stok certificates and
counting out little plica ot gold and green
backs to the nun who bad backed the trans-
Mississippi enterprise with their money and
now received the reward of tholr lojalty and
faith. In accordance with the action of the
board of directors yesterday afternoon Sec
retary Wakeflcld had made out a voucher
on Herman Kountze , treasurer , for $225,000 ,
to be paid to Frank Murphy , as trustee , and
to be by him distributed to the exposition
subscribers The voucher was delivered
Just before 6 o'clock Friday -night , and Mr
Kountze immediately delivered to Mr. Mur
phy a cashier's check for the amount
When the bank opened this morning the
mouej was there and all day today it was
being paid out to the stoskholdcrs , who
passed in aconttnuousllne before tlie window.
As it required some time to pass on tbe cer
tificates , the crowd accumulated constantly
In an hour tbe line doubled on Itself untl
the entire Interior of the bank was crowded
Every minute or two a happy exposition
stockholder walked away from the window
with his hands full of money that lie had
v contributed freely without expecting to ever
see It again and another moved up to take his
place. The ordinary business of the banl
was transacted with difficulty , but every
one seemed to sympathize In the delight o
tbe stockholders and ths mighty triumph
for Omaha that was signified.
Tbe prompt action of the exposition man-
Renent : In paying back its stockholders Is

The suits brought against 100 of the ex
position stockholders who were behind on
their payments have been dismissed , the
exposition association paying the costs and
ordering the dtsmltuals. This action was
taken yesterday morning In Jus'lco ' fool.-
rell's court , where the actlous werestarted. .
Last July the Exposition association com
menced suing the stockholders who were
behind on their payments and has been
bringing suits at Intervals e\er since that
time. Some of those brought early went to
judgment , while others were continued from
time to time.
Another suit has been brought against
the exposition company In the United
States court for $25,000 damages. The plain
tiff In this caie ta Carrie Van Brunt , who
gives her place of residence as In Iowa. In
addition to the exposition company Fred
erick T Cummins and Captain W. A. Mer
cer are also made defendants The plain
tiff nllcfics that whiles occupying a seat at
the Indian congress on September 24 It
broke and precipitated her to the ground
with great force and violence , from which
she received Internal Injuries , and was per
manently Injured In the back and hips , and
particularly In the spine , which have since
kept her confined to her bed. In addition
to the damages asked , she wants tie sum
of $404.60 to cover costs she has been put

MATTERS IN DISTRICT COURT
llnullnt ; Control er y III Connection
with the nxpoKltloii Company
TiiKcH n New Injunction Turn.
The Omaha Morcnants' Express and
Transfer company has concluded to try In
junction tactics as well as some other pee
ple. In the shape of answer as codefendant
ant In the case of John O. On ens against
the exposition it petitions the court to re
fuse the prayer of Owens for a permanent
Injunction and also asks that the exposition
management bo restrained frlm putting Into
effect the rules and regulations published
October 2S , allowing other express companies
to haul stuff from tbo grounds to the rail
way , or from doing anything else which
might In any way conflict with the terms
of the contract entered Into between the ex
position company and the Omaha Merchants'
Express and Transfer company March 26 ,
which gave It the exclusive hauling right. I
In the document the action of the district
court In the suit of John Deklns and Wil
liam A. Gordon , June S , against the expo- '
sltlon company attacking the contract , Is' '
recallsd. The court then decided that the
terms of tbo contract wore nil right and
that It was perfectly valid. John 0. Owens , j
the document goes on to SAT , was fully ad-1
vised of this action as ho was a witness In
that matter. The formation of the Exposi- '
tlon Transfer company as a partnership of
the Omaha Merchants' Express and Trans
fer company Is also explained.
The exposition contempt case Is still In
progress before Judge Scott , The testimony
of Itashiid Jerusattl and M A. Saldy , both
Syrians connected with the Stiects of Cairo
exhibit , was taken during the morning. J
Among other things the Keysor-Powell-
Slabaugh Injunction on the clerk of the dls- '
trlct court , the sheriff and the coroner to
prevent them from in any way Interfering
with the Streets of All Nations exhibit dur
ing vacation was Introduced by the prosecu
tion. A continuance was taken over to
Wednesday. I
Two more dl\orccs have befn allowed by
Judge Tawcett , Elizabeth against Richard
J. West , awarding the plaintiff the custody ,
of their 5-year-old boy , and Minnie against
Hans Mailsen , plaintiff getting the custody
of the four minor children , both cases being
for dcbeitton ,
The Bailey criminal assault case before
Judge Slabaugh had to bo reopened , consequently
quently it will not go to the jury before
Monday
John Byrne , larceny from the person , and
John Murtaugli , forgery , were arraigned be-
'ore Judge Slabaugh and pleaded not guilty.
Owing to tbo necessity for Judge Dickin
son going home to vote he bos postponed
his call until Wednesday.
County Judge Baxter will call his docket
Wednesday.
Ifonoru for Oiiialui Toilette * Men.
The friends of George W. llulmrcd , son
of County Treasurer Helmrod , are pleased
over the news from Cambridge that he has
been appointed an assistant in chemistry In
Harvard unherslty In recognition of the
rclentlflc work ho bos done there. Mr.
Helmrod graduated last year with the high-
rst honors and bad also secured a scholar
ship in chemistry- The position he now 1ms
was formerly held by Dr Cardan , who has
been called to a professorship In a Kentucky
college.
The doctor's dissertation of James Wal
lace Droatch presented for the degree at
Yale has been published In the Journal of
Germanic Philology and reprinted also In
separate form , The subject Is "The In
debtedness of Chaucer's Trollus to Benolt's
Itoman" nnd the textual proofs arc brought
out to trace the connection between the two
works.
FRESH FROM THE KLONDIKE
Captain John J. Hcaly Spends a Day with
Omaha Friends.
DAWSON CITY IS ALL RIGHT AS YET
\ot Much Dolitff In the Mine * , lint
Plenty of Food for All nnd the
Prospect * for the Winter
Arc Good.
Captain John J. Healy , the noted Alaskan
explore.- and capitalist , was In the city jes-
Urday tbo guest of M , G. and Edward A.
Cudahy. Captain Hcaly comes from Dawson
City , where ho has largo Interests , and with
his family intends spending the winter In
the east , Detwcen 300 and 400 people came
donn from Alaska at the same tlmo the
captain did. They left Dawson City on
September 14 and were thirty-five days In
making the trip to Seattle. According to
Captain Healy the population of Dawson
City and vicinity at tha present tlmo is be
tween 15,000 and 20,000. On tbo American
side of the Yukon fully 10,000 people are
scattered along 1,600 miles of river front.
The geography of the country Is described
as being a rolling mountain , mineral coun
try. The mountain ranges are not very
high , but three or four peaks ilse to a con
siderable height.
In speaking about this year's output of
gold Captain Hcaly said bo estimated It at
fully $12,000,000. Of this amount $5,250,000
has reached Seattle and $4,000,000 went to
the mint at San Francisco. Considerable
money still remains in the country , the people
ple holding it not being willing to leave at
this time The mines are not being worked
vigorously at this time on account of the
royalty demanded by the Canadian govern
ment According to the present laws a tat
of 10 per cent on the gross output Is placed
upon every claim. No business can stand
such a tax , and on this account many miners
are holding back and are taking out only
the amount exempted. Tbo Canadians
exempt $2,500 and as a person can live In
that country on this amount a great many
take out only enough to live on , and are
waiting for a change to bo made In the laws
before developing their claims.
Country Yet Undoeloped.
An effort Is being made , Captain Healy
says , to Induce the government to rnsilua
this tax. When this la done bo expects to
see the output Increased three times what
it Is now and also to see three times the
number of men at work. When roads are
[ built and machinery can be taken In It will
I be much easier to get at the gold What Is
needed now Is engines to do hoisting from
shafts , etc. Should such machinery bo
placed In operation it would bo hard to
ostimitc the output. At the present tlmo
wages range from $12 to $15 a day and it
costs from $5 to $10 to get a cord of wood
cut. There Is no danger of a shortage o !
supplies at the present time. Plenty of pro
visions have been taken In during the sum
mer , and there will without doubt be a sur
plus of many articles. Prices rule the same
as last winter on aacount of the expense ol
transportation.
No man or woman , according to the cap
tain's Idea , has any right to go to the Klon
dike unless in possession of the best ot
health and with a determination to work
hard. Such persona thould b provided with
a reasonable amount of money In order to
tide them over in case of misfortune , am )
enable them to leave the country In case they
so desire. There Is no such thing as walk ,
ing out of that country , and consequently
there are no soft snaps there. A person
bai no buslneai in that country unless be
Is a minor or has a determination to be
come one. A great many people got rich
In a year , but where one succeeds many
fall. Good , healthy laborers arc always In
demand and the pay Is ample for all needs
Camp followers and drones are the curse
of the country at the present time. These
people are not wanted , but have to be fed.
They use up supplies which could be used
to better purpose.
Good IMnce to Work Hard.
Captain Healy has lived in Alaska for
fourteen years and ho thinks there is no
country like It. If a person Is healthy and
temperate and knows bow to take care of
himself he will not experience any great
hardships. "Unless a young man has good
habits , " sajs Captain Healy , "I would ad-
vlso him to stay away from the Klondike.
Moro temptations abound there than at
homo , as there Is no place to go for an
evening's entertainment but the gambling
bouse and saloon , "
In bis opinion Alaska will support a largo
population. All that Is wanted now Is civil
law to protect llfo and property. As n rule
the people in the Yukon valley now are
law-abiding and peaceable and shooting
scrapes and brawls are of rare occurrence.
The government should build roads and explore -
plore the country in order to assist these
who seek Investments and homes. At pres
ent the Canadian government has about 250
soldiers and 100 mounted police In its ter
ritory , while the United States sent not
long ago 200 soldiers there. These soldier
maintain order , and there la very ilittla
crime , considering the class of people. Th&
minors aa a rule look after themselves and
are lawabtdlng , but the majority are not
minors. I
Captain Healy was in Omaha but enc '
before , and that was In 1862 , when became
came down from the far northwest and de
posited some gold dust with Allen & Millard -
lard , who operated a bank in Omaha. The
growth of the city had been phenomenal
he said and he regretted that he could not
stay longer.
Prior to last year there was a good deal
of scurvy because the miners and others
used California meats. He stated that ho
had nothing to say against California , but
ho was positive that meats cured at South
Omaha are much better than Pacific coast
products.
Captain Healy left last night for the east
with Michael Cudahy.
BOLD RAID BY BURGLARS
Three Moil vilth Ilevolier * Rob the

Three masked m.'n forced an cntiance to
the residence of n. It Evans , brother cf J.
II Evans , the laundryman , ai G32 South
Thirty-eighth street , yesterday morning at 'i
o'clock and with drawn revolvers made their
way to Mr. Evans' room , where they forced
him to throw up his hands. Whlla on * of
the men kept guard over Evans tbs other
two ransacked the house and securt' 49 i.nd
a gold watch. A slster-ln-law- Mr. Evans
stopping at the- house met the men In one of
the hallways on their way to Mr Evans'
room. She had been drawing a glas * of
water for one ot the Evans children who
was 111. The sight of the men almost threw
her Into hysterics. She was ordered to pre
cede them to Evans' room and admonisued
not to make a noise under penalty of death.
As the men and their prisoner entered Mr.
Evans' room he heard the noise of their
entry and jumped from his bed to learn the
cause of tbe noise and came face to face
with a revolver. The nr n behind It order * !
him to throw up bU bands nnd he did do.
A few moments after tbe two men began
rummaging about tbe house the explosion
of a revolver was heard In oneof tbe rooms

By the dim light of candlco held by somber
robed knights of the Kndosh , to the low
strains of solemn music , the Impressive
burial services of the Kadosh were held last
night by the St. Andruw's council of that
order over the body of the late Champion
S. Chase as It lay In Scottish Kite hall.
Moro than 300 friends and relatives of
Mr. Chase eat In the darkness , grouped
about the square near tbo middle of which
the ceremonies were performed. At 10 30
o'clock the guard of honor , composed of
four of the knights , dispersed , and the ceremonial
menial procession entered the hall , taking
places In ( lies on cither side of the casket.
The ceremonies were conducted by Commander -
mandor James Gilbert , assisted by L E.
Wettllng and U P. Funkbousor. These
who participated wore the long black cas
socks nnd black mitres of the order , to
gether with the red rose symbolic of eter
nal llfo , nnd they carried lighted candles.
At their entrance the Madrigal club sang
"Lead , Kindly Light. " then the casket was
uncovered and the sen Ices that are cato-
gorlcal of man's llfo on earth were com
menced , lasting nearly two bourn. At In
tervals hymns nnd psalms wrro sung by
the Madrigal club and after bequeathing the
Masonic ring worn by Mr Cfiasc to bis

ered , the roses worn by the knights placed
upon It , and all who took part kneeling
extinguished the light of the candles , leav
ing the hall In darknccs , This was nym-

and with a final benediction the ceremonies
were ended.
