about 8 p. m., Juat before the arc lights

by the police suspected of having com

a caee can be made against them.
Another robbery was In the residence of

Boy Accidentally Shot.
A boy by the name of Herbert Abel, who
lives at V6 North Twenty-ninth street, shot
himself through the foot at 8 a. m. yes
terday. He was handling a 32-caliber re
volver In a careless manner when It was
discharged and the bullet penetrated the
I Instep. Dr. Kelly was called and treated
the wound and took the boy home In his
carriage. The accident occurred In a small
shack, which a number of boys have
erected In John Sexton's yard, at Twenty
sixth and H streets. This place Is said to
be a rendesvous for about fifteen boys who
have given the police some trouble by their
Nick Carter propensities. They use the
shack as an arsenal and have a startling
collection of artillery. Cards and dice
re nightly resorted to, It Is asserted, until
the attention of the police has been di
rected to the matter. Officer Ringer ex
amined the place yesterday after the ac
cidental shooting took place. It Is likely
that Mr. Bexton will be asked to prevent
the boys from putting the shack to such
uses as they have made of it in the past.
Barn Entirely Conannted.
The barn of C. P. Wilson at Thirty-sixth
and E streets burned yesterday evening
The fire department went to the scene, but
was unable to check the flames for the
reason that there are no fire hydrants
In the vicinity. The barn contained a load
of hay, but no live stock was lost. The

Creeks Deny Stery.
Several of the members of the Greek
colony of South Omaha deny the recently
published report that John Iiallnh, one of
the prominent colonists, bad absconded
with moneys not rtghifully hie. The In
formation was volunteered by the Justice
before whom the writ of attachment has
been sworn covering tbe personal effects
of John Ballsh. The record of attachment
Ues a the reoota ot th JusUce, au it
was accepted without question, that the
reason for the procedure was the one as
given out In connection with the writ.
The Greeks resent the publicity and enter
a general denial.
Pavlas; Cnao on Trial.
Most of the city officers were In Omaha
yesterday, having been summoned as wit
nesses In the Missouri avenue Injunction
cases. City Clerk J. J. Glllln was sub
poenaed, together with hla records com
prising nearly thirty volumes. It required
a second trip to get all of the records de
sired. The case Is likely to last several '
days, and the Idea of paving has been
entirely abandoned for the rest of the year
at least. It Is rumored that some ser.sa
tlonal testimony will be Introduced before
the case Is concluded.
Railroad Pays Taxes.
Almost every day witnesses a large col
lection of taxes. Yesterday the Union Pa
cific paid Its taxes, amounting to $2,453 C
Heretofore there has been some objection
on the' part of the big company and the
payments have been made under protest.
This time all appeared to be satisfactory.

BURNING LOVE IN OLD AGE
Gray Hnlrs Nor Marriage Ties
Can Dampen Ardor of
Passion.
That axe doea not always dampen the
ardor of lovers Is shown by copies of let
ters alleged to have passed between Lewis
C. Ducker. a 80-year-old farmer living near
Florence, and Mrs. Annie L. Ritchie, in
years old. who 'lives with h-r husband near
Florence. The loners are a part of a petl
tlon In which Mra. Esther T. Ducker de
mands from Mrs. Ritchie Ut.Ofi damages
for alleged alienation of her husband's
affections.
Mrs. Pucker has also begun suit for a di
vorce from her husband and has secured
restraining order from Judge Troup to
prevent him selling his properly. She
charged In her request far the order that
under the Influence of Mra Ritchie he was
turning all his personal property into cash.
She charges the secret correspondence
has been going on between the pair for
two years, though she just discovered It
by accidentally finding some of the letters.
She says the notes were exchanged by
leaving them at a designated place and by
sending them under assumed names through
