...... ... Baro in. Iowa,
John J. Donahue was born on Septem
ber 15, 1837, on a farm near Jowa City.
The farm was owned and cultivated by
his father, who came to this section of
the country when redskins were Wa next
door neighbors. Toung Donahue ; tilled
the ' soli until he reached tile age .'of
when, he bade farewell to' hta parents
and ' went to Creston, la..' where ne
worked steadily In the Burlington ma
chine shops until 1881..
In 18M the lure of the brass buttons
and the policeman's "billy" overcame
him and he was appointed patrolman
on the small Creston force. . ;
IV was at Creston that Donahue first
sprang Into prominence during the big
Burlington strike In 18S8, when the
switchmen and engineers tied up the
road. His fearless work caused him to
be appointed assistant marshal' of Cres
ton and in that capacity he captured
single handed the only murderer con
nected with the atrike In that vicinity.
Shortly afterwards' he was advanced to
the rank of marshal, which office ha
held until 1891, when he came to Omaha.
Donahue-'became ar, patrqlman on the
local force on' July 1891,-and was'soon
made a detective, at which work he made
an excellent record for the next six
years.
Detective Donahue made many sensa
tional arrests and participated In several
important . cases,, among .which were .the
capture of Sam Payne, the convicted
murderer of Maude Ruble, and George
Morgan, the murderer of little Ida Gas-
kill. - ' ....
Ia 'Appointed Chief.
On November 2,-1888, Donahue was ap'
pointed captain of police under Chief
Martin White. White died the following
year, after a lingering Illness, and Dona
hue was appointed chief of police Ko-
vemeer is, isw, Thus his nee from a
common patrolman to the place of chief
et police was made .in , lets than eight
years,
During bis regime Chief Donahue han
dled several large strikes and gained the
highest esteem of everyone with whom
he came In contact. The teamsters'
strike, the South Omaha packing house
strike, the telegraphers' strike and' the
street car strike were all policed under
Donahue's direct supervision, and all
Incipient trouble quelled before It had
time to get a good, start. ) "
Mr. Donahue was married to Anna
Fitzgerald in Iowa City in 188. To them
waa born three ' chltdren, who' are still
living. They are Frank J., John J., Jr.,
and Mrs. Joseph Borghoff, all of whom
live in Omaha.
Policemen Are Depressed. .
' A general air of depression waa felt
at the police station when the newa. of
the chiefs death waa received. All the
officers, to a man, heard with sorrow that
their chief had passed to the great beyond
and would no longer be able to fight for
their rights. There Is not an officer on
the .force WhoBas not said that Chief
Donahue; has been the 'best chief the
city baa ever had.' s ., ( f f.f
The conversation- at the station during
the last few weeks has concerned' the
chief. Many Incidents have been otted by
the officers before roll call where their
(thief had gone out of his wiy In order
to fight for their rights. )
( Estimate of Associates.
.Mayor James C. Dahlman The death
of Chief Donahue Is a great gloss to the
community. I had known him for many
years and always found htm a careful,
effioient official, level-headed and cool.
He had been misrepresented, but at last
he waa neartng a time when he would
have a stretch of smoother sailing. His
death Is most regrettable.
Dan B. Butler, Commissioner ot Fi
nances . and Accounts Chief John J.
Donahue was a quiet, unassuming; man.
His actions In his official life were al
ways tempered by eool calculation and
prudence. He was kind and gentle and
never severe, a man of many friende,
whom his kindly nature and genial man
ner had drawn towards htm during his
active life. His taking away Is indeed
a severe shock to his family and an Ir
reparable loss to the city over which he
to ably fulfilled the duties ot chief ot
police. ;
C. H. Withnell, Commissioner of Fire
Protection and Water . Supply-KWef
Donahue was a square' man. He waa the
best man we ever had In that office: He
will be missed.
f Waaplrh .Ealo&lsea Chief.
Chief Donahue stood at the head ot all
the chiefs of police ot the country," said
William F. Wappich, member of the last
board ot fire and police commissioners,"
and bis death will be mourned not only in
Omaha but throughout the United States
"His ability as an executive head of a
police department and as a man of sound
judgment in dealing with police affairs
was recognised by all the criminologists,
police chiefs and detective agencies the
country over.
"In recognition of his ability he was
placed on the national bureau of identifi
cation which It quite an honor since there
are only five members on that bureau
and they are chosen tor their expertnes
In handling criminals and their knowledge
ot the criminal and his tactics.
'During hit years of service at the bead
of the Omaha department other cities of
the country changed their chiefs numbers
ot times. He Was recognised for his ef-'
flclency.
'In dealing with strikes he was always ;
a man of judicial mind, hearing both sides
of the cases and bringing his results with
out partiality.
I have known Chief Donahue for
twenty years. I knew him as a patrol
man and came in still closer contact with
him after I waa elected a member of the
board of police commissioners, and tn all
that time he displayed his efficiency, bis
kindness and good judgment. He was
friendly to everyone who weuld allow bint
to be. friendly and took great interest tn
helping the criminal man and the fallen
woman eat et tit rat. I fcare known) him

that the Becret of bis success waa that he
had the good will of every man under
him. JSvery one on the force was willing
and ready to do and dare for him.
As a roan he was kind, generous and

warm pergonal friend. It will be a ques
tion If Omaha will be able to get a chief
Of police to take-his place."
Trlbate of ComniUsloner, .
John J. , Ryder, ' police commissioner,
said: "Up to the time of my election last
May 'I. had only a passing acquaintance
with' Chief Donahue. Sinee ' becoming
head of -this department bur official rela
tions have been close.- He made a fine
impression on .me as a wise and clear
headed police executive. He was a
master of his business, and in every con
sultation we had he proved himself a
clean-thinking, square man. He cher
ished no enraJUts, as far as I could Judge,
tnd allowed no prejudices to interfere
with the discharge of his duties.
After he wag compelled to take to hie
bed I saw him two or three timet. Ha
had no Illusions, in ray Judgment, as to
his chance for recovery, after the first
few days. His courage was of that kind
that does not falter wider any test, and
he faced the-Inevitable In a really in
spiring fashion. . He was a Christian,
God-feartnar man to the core of his heart,
and possessed of a level neive that few
men can boast.
"In my estimation John J. Donahue was
a, strong, fearless man, who shouldered
responsibilities with soldierly fortitude,
much' more than . his share . ofttlmes.
What dutiea came in the day' work, no
matter how unpleasant he met like a
true man. Whei) death hovered close he
did not falter or charige, but was steady
and gallant in spirit to the end. His loss
Is distressing, but his courageous ex
ample and the evidence ha gave of an
unfaltering" faith will be an undying
memory to all who saw him during his
last daya."
