A Remarkably Quiet Day. So far as all practical purposes were | concerned Monday was the Fourth of Julyin Omaha. Although the day dawned besntifully bright and clear, about half-past seven o'clock a wicked-looking black cloud arose ln the northwest, snd at eight the rain was falling o that most of those who had designed passing the day in the woods were, for the time being, per- suaded that there wasto be no picnic that day. The two excarsion trains which were to bave run out were tem- porarily abandoned, and the day was considered lost. About 9:30, however, the clonds were swept away and the suu shone out with such warmth that preparations were, renewed by excursionista and others, and the day proved, after all, a most pleasant aud propitious one. Its general cbsery ance was more marked than any pre vious one, the postoffice, baoks, rail- way headquarters and sll the stores in town being closed and nearly everycne betaking themselves to the groves noar the city or in sdjoining towns. There was the usual amoant cf firing of pis- tols and fire crackers, from morning tiil night, but except for this it wae quicter than any Sabbath ever experi- encel in Omaba. Thers was a nota- ble abs:nce of anything like elabor- ations, aud beyond the cus- splay of bunting from a few business heuscs, the armories, newa- paper offices ard hotels there was nothing unususl to indicate the char or of the day. The strect cats were crowded from momwng til it, and everyone wes inteat only on leaving town. The streets aud sidewalks were deserted, and not the slightest disturbsnce was heard of and not a dranken man scen by our reporter from sunrise to sunset SULPHUR SPRINGS, workingmen’s sportsmen’s ith the'r friends, reraircd to Springs estly in_tie day, extensive preparations had boen made for smusements of w1l kirds.

Soon after the morning shower had ceased, the children, teachers, snd friends of the Lutheran Sunday school commenced gathering at the church, when, owing to the kindness cf Messers Dewey snd Stone, C. F. Goodman, Mr. Jardean and others, conveyances were in readiness to ta'e all to the large aud well ercanged grove of C. F. Goodmau, on 10h stiect south of the city., After arriving on ths ground all appeared to determicd to have a jo'ly good time. Soon din- ner ws announced and a good ove it was and one which all did ample jus- tice. After dinner the fun commen] ced In gocd earnest, viz: swinging, playing croquet, singing, accompaicd by the organ, flirting among the older scholare etc., etc,, About 4 o'clock an organ grinder with his monkey en- tered the grouads to the no small amusement of the little folks, aud to the increase of the owner's finances in the shape of a harvest of nickels. Mr. Goodman has one of the pleasantost and best arranged groves for picnics in or about the city, and he and his worthy wife know how to niake all feel perfectly at home. They not only gave free ac- to the grove, but al to his ly arranged aud well kept garden and comfortable residence. All who were present realized that. they were greatly under oblig:tions to them for \he day's enjoyment, for they left nothing undone to have all present enjoy themselves. If no one feels the worse for the quantity of lemonade, cikes, etc., that were consumed, it shall be a surprise to many. Thus the day that commenced so inauspi ciously ended most enjoyably te all who participated. At an early hour i all returned to their homes safely, and well pleased with a day spent at Goodman’s vrove. THE BAPTIST EXCURSION. We weut for a good time, and we it! So say those who made up the jolly czowd of excursionists to Platts- mouth yesterday. Much credit is dus the management who so successfully corried out this most enjoyable affair, which, when taking into consiieration the fact that there was an sbsence of the usual accompaniment of music, speeches, and varied amusements, was rather a difficult tasl The effect of the rain was disasirous for a time, but with the first breaking away of the cloués vine well-filled coaches were skimming through the beautiful coun try lying between Omaha and tho suug 1 t.le city of Plattsmouth. Alhough it was high noon when the piciic grounds were reached; there was plenty of time for the de- 1cious lunches; many diversions re- sorted to by the children, and for the euthusiast to find and enjoy from a promineuce the lovely sceuery in, about and beyond the town, which exclusively, is very indifferent- The chief attrastion of the day wasa run down to the new bridge, sfter ibe cars wore again filled. It 1 a magoificent piece of work, and Plattsmouth is ex- cusable for her pride in the structure. By sctual ¢ unt there were 803 persons, great and emall, abourd the train, including the | braves of Co. H, wh created quite an interest by their impressive marchi through the streets, and later in the day by their tsrget shooting, proving the skill of a few as follows: Out of 60 shots at an 8-inch target, 38 en- tered the ciele. Best shot, J. H. Qualey;second, Lisu. Tompkins; third, Sargeant Dennelly; fourth, Capt. Val- entine. Much fun was occasioned by the hungry crowd of young men who were unfortunate encugh to depend depend upon Plattsmouth supplie-, and found them deficient. However, the ra‘ience acd activity of Mre. Stadteman and her assiszants finally brought quiet sndgpatisfaction to all 0 pitronized her comfcriable estab- lishment. ~ ¢ Summing it all up the picnic wasa sucoess, financially much better than expected.

Goach loads. The Ninth In- fantry band marched down about 11:30, playing through the streets and accompauied the excursionists. A train of three coaches ran out from Papillion and ctowds of people from Sarpy and Douglas counties drove to the spot. Itis said that fully 2000 persons wero present and the teams and vehicles covered five acres of ground. Thero was_the usual pro- gramme, including dancing, target- shooting, ate: The oration of the day was d ered by Hon. John Rush, of this city, who in his excellont addroes consid- ered the rapid growth and develop- ment, of the United States as com- pored with other nations past and present, shuwing that whereas it had taken ther centuries to riee to the height of power, this nation had in one century grown to be the peer of any on carth. He psid a glowing tribute o the memory of Abraham Lincoln, eulogizing his character s statesmen and his eminent fitness to stand at the head of the government during the most trying time in her history. He alluded to the labor question, and predicted that no civil war or domestic trouble would be ex- perienced hereafter if honest and capa- blo men wero elected to fill the legis- ltive aod other offices. He concluded by & description of the surparsing magnificent legacy this_generation CRIME'S CROWN.

The second murder that has taken placein Douglas county within the past four days was committed yester- day afternoon shortly before four o'clock at the fruit store kept by Jobn Cuneo, an Italian, on Thirteenth street, between Farnham and Harney. The murderer and his victim were also Italians and temporarily stopping Cuneo, who, although he does mot keep a boarding house, will never turn a follow countryman out of doors. The tragedy was enacted so quietly that for fifteen or twenty minates there was no excitement about the scee, no crowd, and, steanger still, no po- liceman, and before mavy had arrived the morderer made bis escape.

In addition thero were foot races, dancing, base ball aud oth- eramusements provided. Chas Me Donald read the Daclaration of Inde- pendence and C. J. Green delivered the craton of the day. Steinhauser’s orchestra furnished music for the dancers. Tha picnic wasa grand suc cess and did not conclude until late at night. MISCELLANEOUS, was little by little that the details of the affair came out, and they were meagre and unsatisfactory, but were substantially as follows: In the morning between 8 and 9 o'clock Cuneo went to make a pur- chase of some fruit, accompanied by uis Zergs, who came here on Friday last and was stopping with him. Oa returning with the frait they found a manin tte stcre, named Wm.

A fawmomentsbefore100’clockMon™ day night an alarm of fire was turned and a bright glow was seen in the di- reztion of the U. P. depot. The fire department bastened promptly to the scene, followed by largs crowds of peole who had been promenading ou the streets and witnessing the display of fire-works. From the corner «f 11th and Jackson streets, it lovked as though a dis at b us contlageation was burning building being ensconsed among higher frame struct- ures, against and above which it cast showers of glowing fire and clcuds of smoke, while the lurid glare of the burning pile, reflected by the hill up- on the neighborhood to the north of it, made that part of town ss light as | day. Tae fire did not prove serious in jts resulis, the properiy destroyed being a small barn owned by Mr. Ed. Kreissman, proprietor of the ssloon and boarding house just south of the St. James hotel, which the con- terts, excepting a valuable buggy which was rescued just in time, was wholly destroyed. There was no etock in it at the time, but including the harness, ete., Mr. Kreissman’s loes is, perhaps, considerably more than the $250 insvrance, held on the building will cover. The origin of the fire is in doubt, hut i was likely ~ from k from some rocket sent up in a distant part of the city, as thera had been no fire near the prem- ises for some time. The barn was so close to the block of light frame buildings that but for timely assist- ance a terrible disaster must have fo!- lowed. Owing to the fact that no water could be obtained nearer than at the cistern ou Tenth and Jackson, the department Iabored at a great disad- vantage. U. P. locomotive No. 41, 80 serviceable in the late big fire, was run alovgside the St. James and sent a steady stream on the blaze, no doubt s preventing its further spread. This branch of the fire service works un- der the direction of Chief Engineer Geo, Dickinson. After the fire Mr. Kroissman set ‘em up to the boys. THIS AFTERNOON. Ap alarm of fire was sounded from infrom “‘box 4,"” corner 9th and Jones,| played a cougle of games of pocl for the becr. While they were were laying Gozzolo came in and was Pl treated and compelled to mako up | with his countryman. At leng'h they ouce more returned to the fruit store where the proprietor laid down to get alittle rest. His partner, Bacigalupo, was in the front room, and his wife and Mrs. Bacigalupo were in the kitchen washing dishes. The two Itslans were also in the kitchen drinking a pitcher of beer. The quarrel was renewed, and when Gozzolo put on Zerga's coat, and the Jatter objected, it reached the climax The former was greatly enraged, and frightened the woman very much by the “‘expression of his eyes.” G zzoly said, ““L have killed a good many, and 1 cau kill you,” and, suiting the ac- tion to the words, he drew a heavy 44-calibre revolver, and fired at h's companion, the ball striking him be- tween the sixth and seventh ribe, and passing through the diapbram and down through the abdoaen, came out just above the right hip joint, and fell upon the floor.

Doctor Mercer was called in, with Dr. Chadwick, and pronounced the man mortally wounded. They say his chances sre not more than one in a thousand and that death must ensue within 36 hours. An attempt was made to get an a~ti-mortem statement from the injured man but without snc- coss. He was able, however, to identify the weapon which is now in the morshal's pessession. A descrip tion of the fugitive was given the ofticers and the city was thorougbly searched for L.im, but up to midnight he was not found. Zerga suffered greatly, He confessed early in the evening and at 9 o'clock lay with glazed oyes, awaiting the coming of the grim mesre ger whose foot steps wer: all that was audible to him.
