The Vicissitudes of the Mar- ried Life of an Omaha CTouple. In making his regular round yes- terday our reporter dropped on &n interesting item, at the marshal’s office, of the kind scldom furnished to a reporter anywhere in ‘the United States, although not £o unusual as to be very sensstional. _ In Marshal Westerdab!'s office sot a youthful couple whom the officer introduced as Mr. end Mrs. George W. Green. The Iady was a brunette, very neatly dressed, with clear cut festures and decidedly zood-looking. She was apparently about twenty-five years of age,and uadoubtedly had not a drop of the blocd of Ham flowing in ner veins, Her cowpanion wasa young mulatto of medium height, well-dress- ed, and both intellizent and respecta- ble looking. Inquiry developed the fact that they had been married on the evening of St. Valentine’s day, st Red Oak, Towa, by a justiceof the peace, named French, whose name was daly appended to the certificate of marriage which the bride produced, and from which it appeared that the latters name was Maria Wolfo, The parties are detained in custody by the authorities, in Te- sponse toa telegram from Red Oak, Tows, which 1s the home of the bride's parents, ber father beinz a carpenter by trade. A telephone mesiage to ar- rest the bride was received'from Coun- cit Bluffs Tuesday, fbut was not acted upon, as it was notexplicit. It appears that the husband is not wanted, but the wife is claimed by her parants on the ground that ehe wasnot “of sge” when the ceremony was performed Mrs. Green saye that she was born in 1861, as the family bible will show and that the justice who married her has known her all all her life. She claims that up to three yoars sgo she lived at home and was of good repute, but that sho had to go out and work, and her wages were taken by her father for drink, which would result in the children being turned oat of doors. Atlength, driven to des. perstion, she lett home, and supported berself in a manner to whi: young girls resort under sim cumstances, She was koown in Omshs as Jeonio Smith, sud while here madethe acqusintauce of Green, who is only twenty-two years old, and is employed at the Withnell House. A short time ago they made s trip to Red Oak, where the lover visited her at her sister’s house, and the bride says was treated like a brother. On Sanday they roturned to the same place, and on Monday evening were married as stated. Mrs. Groen says her sistsr romonstrated with ber for marrying a colored man right underthe family’s cellective nose and said she ought to have been mar- ried elsewhere, but did notssem to have any objection to the match as ot being a good one. Oa the wedding night the house in which it was supposed they were stcp- ping, was “pulied” by the polive and everybody taken beforethepolice oourt except the parties wanted whotook the Eint and alec took the train for Coun- cil Bluffs, where people are not so sensitive. A telogram was sent after them and they crossed the line and got out of the state as quickly a3 possi- ble. The only complaint mado seems to be the bride’s minority, and whether the marriage is a violation of the laws of that state we do nottknow. Mrs, Groen said that her father had no money to prosecuts the latter case, and thst she had been obliged to rus- tle for herself so long that he had no legal elsim upon hor in anycase. She also added that he had not spoken to her bat once in the past nine months, and that on that excep- tional occasion she met him on the street, and, having in her possession a bottle of whisky (procared of course for medical purposes), she asked him to take a drink, and the invitation was not refased. The marshsl telographed yester. day for forther instructions in thy matter and was awaiting tho receipt of an answer before taking any final ac- tion In their case. ROCKFORD WATCHES.

Parsuant to appointment, and des- pite the inclemency of the weather, the pupils of the Sarstoga Sundsy school, gave thelr exhibition for the benefit of their school Tuesdsy evens ing.{ This entertainment, preparations for which was in progress for some weeks previous, has been looked for- ward to with a great deal of solicitude and interest by the participante, their say that none were disappointed. Prompily at the appointed time the curtain of the stage rolied away, and from that time to the close, the anter- tainment progressed without mistake or balk, the audience giving expression to thelr "satisfaction aud pleasure by repeated and continued applause. It ie due to Mr. Messier to say of him that aside from bestowing a per- manent and lasting benefit upen tke community and each of the pupils who have been under his care in preparing for this ocoasicn, he displayed an en- orgy and skill in this direction which merited for him universal ad- miration and endorsement, both by his popile, who personally howed him the most implicit obedience and despest respact, and by the audience, who gave him a unsnimous and hearty vote of thavks and congratulations apon his succesc. For nearly all of the pupils taking apartin the eutertainment, it was the first appeacance before the public. - They are all young; all of them, with one or two exceptions, still being in childhood. The time for their proparation had been short; the weatber had been unfavorable, yet throughout the catire entertainment, without one exception, they did them. selves proud. Child-like earnestness and simplicity being one of the ploas- ing and attractive featuros of the whols affair. For their excellenceand attention Mr. Messir prosented the class with three besutiful medals, which was highly appreciated by them, Hozosround the altarjofjtheir Sanday schiool hed gathered the children of the community, as perhaps they gath- er in no other capaclty. They came without regard to age, sex or color, and not one that did not highly ap- preciate the whole, The Ninth Infaniry band furnished the moefc, It i noodless to ssy any- thing in regard to the music. The band farnishes its own recommenda- tlon, in the grand, sweet strains of ite own production. They were among the moat attractlve features of the en- ment, They had the hearty of the audience, and of Mr. Missier and his pupils, After the entertalnment had closed they were cordially entertained at the residence of Mr. W. H. Lawton, where alsoa highly appreciated supper was served them, by way of compli- ment and regard for thelr froc con- tribution of excellent music. This affair resulted, besides affording a goodly amount of amusemsnt, in a good, round sum of money for the Suvday echool at this place. The verdict for the class, of all known to the proceedings of the evening is, “‘excellent,” and the uni- versal sentiment tc Mr. Messir for his pains and trouble is, *‘Well done, good and faitbfal servant.” s There will be a Graxp Baun for the benefit of St. John's Bohemian Benevolent Society, at John Svacina’s, South Thirtcenth S:roet, on Wednes- dsy, Febraary 1 152 A Gara.

Adams’ Ale Advocates Ad- vance into the Arena, And Charge Upon the Enemy With Tongue and Toe-Nail, While the Liquid-aters Se- renely Smile and Buckle to Prohibition, Perquisites and Petticoats Before the Bar. MONDAY. EXTRA SESSION, Speoul Correspondence of The Bee. Lascors, February 14.—Yhe great mountain of bills that has loomed up in the Louse, embracing many very important measures, and the fact that there remains but twelve dsys in which to level this mouatain, has given origin to considerabls pecula- tionas toan extra session. I have taken some pains to ascertain the sen- timent of the house on this question. Among the measares that almost de- mand decisive action, are those for congressional, judiclal and legislative spportionment, and some rallroad leg- islation, Liquor prohibition and women sufirage are receiving, and will continue to receive, considerable attention. The varions appropria- tons for state improvementa have yet to be voted, and the committees appointed to visit the several state institutions have not had time (aor would the weather permit) to make their visits, with the exception of a visit to the deafand dumb 1insti- tatlon at Omashs. I asked Speaker Shedd his opinion in the premises. He thinks there is little doubt that the governcr will call an extra ssssion directly upon the heels of this one, for it was simply impossiblo to get through with tho necessary legislaticn in twelve days. PERQUISITES, The following notice was served this marning, and creates no little conster- nation amorg the officers: Lixcouy, Neb., Feb. 14, 1881, Hon, G. . Bart'ett, Stato Treasurer: Str.—You ara hereby notified that the legislature of this state has not the power to appropriate any part of the public fund to pay for perquisites for the members or employees thereof; also that the act which purports t ap. propriato 818,000 for incidental ex- penses of tho present session of the legislature, includes in such so-called expenses, postage, postage-stamps, postal wrappers and newspapers un- lawfully furnished to memwmbers of the present legislature, and is, to the ex- tent of such appropriation for postage, postage-stamps, wrappers and newspa pers, uncomtllnhom.lp nd unauthoriz- ed, and will afford you no protection in tho payment of such part of said appropriation. The exact amount of said_appropriation that is unlawful can be ascortained from the secretary of state, by whom ssid perquisites were farnished. As a tax-payer of this stato, and In the nameef all other tax-payera of this tate, I hereby pro- test against the payment of such so- called expenses. If yen disregard this protest you do 80 at your own risk and peril, Jonx D. Hows. HOUSE. Mr. Root, of Uass, offered a resolu- tion to confine speeches on any ques- tion to fifteen minutes. Mr Ransom, of Otoe, objected. He thought it was offered to eut off deta‘e on the prohibitory amendment bill. Mr. Root replied that he desired the ruls to apply in all cases. Mr. Bartlett, of Doiglas, hoped the resolution would not prevail. Several gentlemen on one side of this ques- tion had relieved themselves to thelr heart’s content and it was unfair to throttle those of the other side, It was & questiou of great importance both to the_state and manufacturing interests. He moved the resolution be laid upon the table, which was car- ried. The house then went into commit- tee of the whole to consider the pro- hibitory bill. Mr. Ransom made the closing arga- ‘ment on the adoption of his amend- ment to provide for indemnity to own- ers of property used in the msnufac tare of liquor, where the state prohib- ited the ssme. The' argument was very foraible. He sought to sustaln the one proposition that the conatitu tlcn did not eanctlon the taking away of a man’s property and business with- out allowing indemnity therefor. He ventilated Ex-Chief Justice Mason'’s decisions on this question in years He sald, ont of twenty de- ouly elghteen were sustained by a higher court. He appsaled to the conscienca of the house, and hoped that every member would voté accord- ing to his judgment of right. Mer. Root, of Cass, asked for the reading of the amendment, which was done. The vote was then taken on Mr. Rsnsom'’s amendment, which stood 46 to 28 against its adoption. The ver. dict was grested loud applause, which provoked the chair to say that if tho galleries didn’tkeep atill, ho’d put ’em out. A message from the governor was then read by Mr. Fiebarty, of the ex- ecutive office, to the effect that house rolls 3, 14 and 15 had been signed by His Excellency. Mr. Howe, of Nemaha, moved that when the committee arise it be in- structed to report house roll 85 back to the house with the rezommendation that it do pass, Mr. Holman, of Dakots, objected. He did not see any rules which pre- vented other amendments being of- fered to the bill under consideration. He resisted the attempt to' gag the minority on this question. Tinadvertantly omitted Gen . Hol- man’s_ epeech in favor of Ransom’s amendment, which he delivered Sat- urday. He made a strong appeal to the house to beware of trifling wita the individaal rights of cltizans. Mr. Howe withdrew his motion with the consent of his second. - Mr. Whedon, of Lancaster, said: ““Sectlcn one of this bill reads: The manufacture and sale of intoxicating liguor is forever prohibited within this state except for mechanical, medi- cal and sclentific purposes [snd the legislature shall provide for the en- forcement of this section by enacting suitable laws with sufficlent penalties. ] He wanted the latter part of the sec tion (which I have enclosed in brackets) stricken out, bat apon put- ting it to a vote the motion was iost. The committee then rose and the house adjourned. Thus as I predicted no vote will bo made on_ this bill until Jackson’s hizh license bill comes up to-morrow and shall have been dis- posed of. The Herald corraspondent saysin a tolegram of February 12:h that Sen- ator Howe introduced a bill for a levy of taxes to pay for the sewerage al- ready bailt. This is amistake. The bill * was introdaced by Sema‘or Dosne. NO MORE WHISKY. Special Correspondence of Tim Bax. Strict order will be maintalned. jaa 27-1m 314 South 10th St w-e-4t Committee Danish Soclety. Lixcous, February 16.—In the ! houss this morning M. Hows of Ne- mashs, moved that house roll 85 (the prohibitory amendment) be engrossed: for third reading. Mr. Ransom, of Otoe, smended by not having it engrossed, but recom- mended to the committee of the whole. He opposed the movement t0 spply the gag-law upon the minor- ity in this bill. Only one sectlon of the bill had been considered. No bill heretofore had been ordered en-| grossed uatil every section had been conaldered. Mr. Bartlett, of Douglas: “I am in favor of the smendment of the gentioman from Otoe. I have beén, upon principle, in favor of submitting +his question to the people, because, as & lawyer and citizen, I could not 800 how & man can consistently take the question away from the fountain- head of law and suthority. This is my position, and if the people desire t0 express themselves upen & quetiion of this kind—or any other question— let them do s0. . Ko long as there s an attempt to gag membere, or an at- tempt to paas a bill here in this man- oer, I give due nottoe that I shall loudly protest. The *“ previous question” (that of Mr, Howe) was thea called fcr and carried, Thus all debate on the bill was shut off, and it yet only requires to be voted upon. A DYING EICK. Mr. Kyner, of Douglas, wanted to sy a8 & republican boru in Ohio; asa soldier having left a leg on the battle- field of Shiloh; and as a consistent republican to-day that he was ashamed of the republican vote of this legisla- ture. “I want the privilege allowed me of recording the names of several of thete gentlemen in my littlo mem- orandum baok."” Mr. Silver, of Gage, also attempted to protest, but some one said kicking was out of order, sad he wilted. THE SOULLESS CORPORATIONS, Mr. Jenson, of Butler, offered a resolution requiring that all bills re- ported by the railroad committee up to date be made a special order for 3:30 o'clock p. m. Wedneaday, Fobruary 16th. Mr. Correll, of Thayer, thought every bill should take its regular order. Mr. Case, of Olay, said it was for the house 0 say what bills should be con- sidered and at what time, The ques- tlon was: Is this house so organized that it is r eady to discuss the railroad question? It was time for the mem- bors to come to some concluslon in the matter. “If we can afford to glve four er five days to tho liquor question, we can afford to give the balance of the session to the railroad question.” Mr, Maullen, of Douglas, moved that the resolution be laid apon tho table, The ayss cnd nays were demanded. Mr. Abbott, of Lancaster was in favor of laying the resolution on the table until all the railroad bills had been reported on, Ife therefore voted o s Broatch,of Douglas, concarred; Mr. Kyner, of Douglas, believed that any more railroad legislation would cripple the state. The presant state of affairs could not be improved upon. He was ready to pat himself on record, and would vote according to the dictate of his own consclence. He votes ““aye.” The motion to lay upon the table was lost, and the clerk read the orig- inal resolation of Mr. Jenson. Mr. Slocum, cf Jefforson, amend- ed, by including all railroad bills re- ported by any committee, Tae resolation was adopted as amended. Among the bills iIntroduced one provides for the proper representation of Nebraska at the New York exposi- tion of 1883; another provides for an appropriation to build a wing to the inssne asylum; and_another to create a board of Immigration. Speaker Shedd sald that it had be- come necessary for him o take a short leave, and he wanted ths con- sideration of the high license bill post- poned, aa he desired very mach to hear the case discussed. “The house poatponed the same until Friday af- tarnoon. Directly after the noon hour the house went_into committes of the whole, Mr. McShace, of Douglas, in the cha'r, The most important bills considered by it were the medical bills— legalize dissecting under certain con- ditions, and the other fo exclude quack dootors from the state. Quite an ex- tended discussion was indulged in on the bills. Mr. Shick, of Nemaha, of- fered an amendment to a section of the latter bill making the fee of a phy- sician not more than one dollar a vis. it, and half a dollar per mile extra for lsits into the country, A penalty of ity dollars was iixed for refusal of any physician to attend a call. Mr. Root, of Cass, who is a phyal- cian, made a atrong appeal against tho adoption of the amendment, and for the expulsion of ‘quacks from the state, for the protection of the quali- fied physic Mr., Shicl mendment was lost. Both the medical biila were reported back to the house with the recommen- dation that they be passed. Mr.Case, of Clay, made a good speech on the eubject, stating that moat of the di- plomas were bought for cash, and that a large proportion et the physicians in the etate knew very littls of materia medica, He read prescr.ptions given by a man of his acqasintance, who claimed to be & physician. thom as tha doctor(!) wrote them: “One q Best Brandy; ona oz gen- tin } oz dandeline, golden selo root 4 0z, Blud Root 4 drh Valeria root 4 oz Dose tabel sponful 3 or 4 times a day.” “41b Bucu loves take Tabel spon- fol and Steep in Water to te.

The majority report was 58 follows: Firat cistrict to in- clude Dorglas, Sarpy, Cass, 00, Ne- mahs, Richardson, Pawneo, Johnson, Gege, Lancaster and Saunders; Sec- ond district to include all the romain- ing counties south cf the Platte; Third district to inc'ule ail the territory unorth of the Platte, excopt Douglas and Serpy countiee, The minority report recommends that the First di trict inclade Cass, O:ce, Nemahs, Richardson, Pawroe, Johnson, Gage, Lanosstor, Ssunders, Butler and Soward counties, For the Second district all the remaining counties sonth of the Platte, togother with Hall, Boffalo and all counties on the Union Pacific railroad west of Butler. The Third district to include all the counties north of the Platte, cxcept thoze along the Union Pacific_road. It is casy to see how the Union Pacifio has got ita work in upon the make up of the majority report. The senate this af ernocy, fn com- mittee of the whcle,without a disaent- ing vote, recommended the passage of Senator Wella’ bill, S F. 52, to pro- hibit any railrosd company or corpora- tion In the state from charging more tian theee cents a wils for one person and ove hundred pounds of baggage. Thera was considerable eurprise i the vote proved ro unanimous. credited to the fact that the “epposi- tion was 80 weak that they deemed it advisable to make a clean sweep of the matte . The special committee appointed by 1 glve W the senate to Investigate the letiing of the printing contract Is pushing its investigations in a way that bids falr to knock out several plate glass windews from the new Journal bullding. The Omaha Herald will bo called upon to oxplain certain matters, and wiil doubtless find it necessary to wash their rollers, The committes ot the whole recom- wended the passage of Senator Bal- lentine’s bill to limit the charges of Pullman palace or sleeping cars to one-haif cent per mile. LEGISLATIVE LACONICS. The senate passed senate bill No. 40 to-day, for the repeal of section 39 of an act to provi tem cf rov- | enue, passed {n 1879. & Kyner, in the discassion on the bill | to paralyzs quacks, pronounced it ma- feria medy-ca, Smiles. In the discussion of the bill to pro- vide for the free passage of fish .n Nobraska waters, one member favored the measure because he had heard that fish were good brain fuod, and; apon looking over the bald-heads in the house, he had concluded that none | of them ate enough fish. The total amouat of apprepristio recommended by the appropriations committee is about $500,000 The house committee on _the state penitentiary, of which Mr. Bailey, Washington, is chairman, havo re. ported that §3500 is enough to maks all the necessary Improvements.
