George Melville, alias Sandy, no- toriously known in Omaha and the West, has escaped the halter. He was to have been tried in Colorado on the charge of murder, but 2s no witnesses could be found to be brought against him at the trial, he was accordingly discharged. He was interviewed at Cheyenne the other day by Mr. McNamara, who reports him to have been feeling ju- bilant over the failure of that pros- pective necktie sociable. Sandy is ambitious and wants to rise in life, but he don't wan't to do it in that way. An Elogant Pe: Fred Hirst, manager of the up- per Farnham street Atlantic & Pacific telegraph office, received by express a day or two ago, from some unknown purson, a box, containing am elegant pet, namely, a bull snake, six feet and two inches long. One side of the box is glass 50 that the reptile can be easily seen. When the reptile is stirred up, it makes a noise like a buzz saw, and cracks its head on the glass. Itis an elephant on Hirst’s hands, and he is willing to present it to any body who will take it away. If he wants to get up a circus, it is suggested to him that he turn it loose on the sidewalk. First M. E. Sunday Seaocol. The teachers of the First M. E. Sanday School Friday evening elect= ed the following officers for the ensu- ing year: Superinteadent, Samuel Burns; Assistant Superintendents, T. B. Lemon and C. L. Garrison ; Secre- tary, J. W. Arnold ; Treasurer, C. L. Garrison. This Sunday School has just closed 1 very pleasant and prosper- ous year—the eighteenth year of its organization. It has 32 efficient of- ficers and teachers, and 819 scholars, and has no indebtedness, with a balance of $206 in the treasury. State Sunday School Convention. This week, the 9th, 10th and 11th insts., the Annual State Sun- day Sch.ol Convention will be held at Nebraska City. A large number of delegates will go from Omaha. The railroad fare has been reduced to the usual standard—one fare and afifth for the round trip. It is an- ticlpated that the coming conven- tion il be superior to any previous- Iy held in the State. Run Off the Track. Saturday morning about half-past 8 o'clock, the dummy train, while at Spoon lake, ran off the track ow- ing to the switch not having been set correctly. The engine and one car were ditched, causing a delay of nearly two hours to the transfer train from the east. There was no damage done. FOR SAE!

Hardly a day passes but what one or more travelers land in Omaha dead-broke, having been robbed out of their money by these birds of prey on this railroad. Friday there arrived heee three men who had been taken in and done for. One man, who was en route to California, had to sell his through ticket to the Uniap Pacific general ticket agent, Mr. Kimball, and return home, almost heart-broken over the affair. Another man, who was on his way to Denver, was obliged to do the the same thirg, and abandon his trip to the west; while the third victim of yesterday’s monte trans- actions, found himself entirely strapped. He was coming to this State toinvest his few hundreds in land, upon which to settle, but now he will have togive up all hopes for some time to come of scquiring & home in Nebraska. The question is, how long will this business be allowed to continue on the Chicago & Rock Island rail- road? Are its passengers not enti- tled toa reasonable protection from these sharpers? If the officers of the company wish to guard the interests of their road, and to keep it in favor with the traveling public, they must immediately drive these mon- te cappers and throwers off their line.
