No. 1508 Faraham Street, ONLAFLA, -~ ~ NEBEI, Orrica—Nor b slde opp. Grand Central Hotel, — | if that were not the one whom he had A ST. LOUIS SCANDAL. The Varioty Singer's Story of Mak« ing Love to the Belle. The St. Louis peoplo have lately had many themes of discussion. First i K, but not first in order, came n robbery on the Chicago & Alton railw it happened just in time to overshadow a very ugly social ion, the particulars of which u everybody's mouth, I refer to the Amweg-Hazeltine affair. The | facts in the case, briefly stated are theso: A fourth-class variety singer named John Amwag—a tall, lank young man of about twenty-four years of age—who had been playing at a well-known beer garden in " this city, oasted in a saloon not long since to a cty of his companions that a certain ty belle was paying him o great deal of attention; that she had seen him on the stage, where she had at- tracted his notice by means of a bou- quet which she took feom her bosom and placed under a seat when she was about to leave; that after she left and the crowd were Zdispersing he came down, got the bouquet and found it to contain a note. This note stated, in substance, that she would like his acquaintance under certain condi- tions, according to his statement, and invited a correspondence, which finally resulted in his calling at the Hazeltine mansion, a fine stone build- ing in that vicinity. He claimed that he had called under an assumed name, presenting a card she had sent him, and that she called herself Ellen Mangan. So much for the way in which they got acquainted, Then followed the courtship and engagement, as his story went, and he finally learned that he was really making lova to one of the belles of St. Louis and that he seemed to think that she was in love with him. This piece of conduct was thoroughly characteristic of the man. Whether or not the young lady did repose confidence in him it is hard to say, but if she did she most certainly made a mistake. The fact that a poor minstrel, getting $20 a week could marry a girl who was accustomed to live in luxurious style sounded prepos- terous, and Amweg was told so, but he said that the young lady had a rich uncle, who lived in New York, and who had bank stock enoughtd get him a position, and that the whole thing was settled. The fact that he had used such language in public was not long in_finding its way to the Hazeltine family. Fred W. Para- more, the son of a railroad president, also heard of it. Mr, Paramore was then engaged to Miss Hazeltine, A great noise was made about the affair and Mr, Paramore and Mr. William Hazeltine, brother of the young lady, put their heads together to coucoct a scheme to punish Amweg. In the meantime everything became known at a certain newspaper office, and the young lady came down in person and requested the suppression of the facts, which was done, and so the thing was hushed up for the time being. The young lady then left for the White Sulphur springs, in Virginia, and while she was gone her brother and betrothed carried into effect their plan to chastise Amweg, They did not know him personally, but they called) into service a third party who did. They met him with their mutual friend, took a drink with him, then invited him into Paramore’s of- fice, on the fourth floor of a down- town building. Having got him there they demanded why he had made those statements. Amweg showed no inclination to recede from his position. On the contray, he de- clared that all he had said was not only true, but that he had more to tell. He had a photograph of the lady in his possession, upon the back of which wa, written in her own hand— YOURS TILL DEATH, NELLIE, handwriting, some bearing her own signature and some her nom de plume. He also told the gentlemen where they could find them and gave them permission to go to his room and get them. One of the three was sent to get them, while the other guarded Amweg. Everything was found just'as he had told them, but they swore the writing was a forgery, and that the picture had been stolen, They tried to make Amweg admit that he had been imposed upon by a servant girl named Ellen Mangan, who works in the Hazeltine honsehold, but he was positive that he had not seen the servant girl at all. They finally be- gan to beat him and knocked and cuffed him about for several minutes without gaining a word of retraction. They then took him to the house, showed him the servant girl and asked flirted with. Of course he said “‘No,” and so did thegirl. Amweg then filed a suit against the two young men, Hazeltine and Paramore for damages, and the papers published what had happened. This suit was compromised last week for 81,600, Amberg paid his attorneys §500 apiece and left the town, _ After the compromise Miss Hazel- tine stated, in an interview, that the whole thing was a falsehood concocted by Amweg and that he had allowed himself to be imposed upon by the servant girl. Whether this is true or not is doubted by many people who believe that the adventurer must have received some encouragement, At all events, everybody pities Miss Hazeltine, and all are sorry for the awkward position in which she is placed. This whole story only goes to show that the temale “mashing” craze lias found its way west. Miss Hazel- tine is the young lady who was re- ported to be engaged to a prominent citizen who was recently a candidate for the presidency of the United States, — A Persistont Gimlet Man. w York Btar, T ghould like to sell youa gimlet,” said a careworn looking man, as he walked into an office the other day, “We haye 110 use for one, ' replied the cashier, “But you should always look into the misty future,” went on the fiend, demuroly. ““Next winter you will| want to make holes in your boot heels, 80 you can got your skates on,” I uso club skates~no straps ro- quired.” “You may want to ards ln;,’ulfwr some time The old hioned mothod of driving the screws in with a hammer is per- BOrew gome THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: MONI you, darling? nicious, as it deteriorates the tenac- ity of the fangs of the screw, as it were, " “Nothing to-day, sir.” “This gimlet also acts as a cork screw, “I don't want it." “It may also be used as a tack ham- mer, a cigar holder and a toothbrush, “I'don’t want it.” “Ithas an eraser, a pen, an ink- stand, a tablo for computing compound interests, and a lunch-box attach- ment. “I can't help it; Tdon’t want it “I know you don't; you're one of those mean men that won't buy a gim- let unless it has a restaurant and a trip to Europe and an ltalian opera company attached, You're the kind of a man that would live near an clec tric light to save a gas bill.” And the peddler walked out with his mental plumage on the perpendicu- lar, A Matter of Business. From the Brooklyn Eagle. “You were out last night, dear,” s3id Mrs, Breezy, taking her scat at the breakfast table and fumbling ner- vously with her fork, “Oh, no!” said Mr. Breezy, ‘‘it wasn't late. You see, darling, you were asleep when I came in and —" “No, Mr. Breezy, I was not asleep, but, as you say, it was not late for you. Nothing would convince you that the clock struck 3 as you closed the hall door. Of course business de- tained you, my dear. It is wonderful how much business a man will trans- act after midmght, but of course we women know nothing about such things, We never can understand you men, can we, dear? We are al- ways imagining all sorts of horrid things when you happen to stay away a day or two without sending us even aline. Women are 8o nervous, are they not, dear ! What silly creatures we are to be sure. If we would only go to bed, and go to sleep, it would save us a world of trouble, wouldn’t itdear? We might know that you strong men can take care of youselves. If you are obliged to sit up until 2 or 3 o'clock in the morning talking busi- ness with your customers, it is really ungrateful in us to complain, for, of course, you have the worst of it don’t\ How it must have bothered you and how tired you must get, and think that it is all for our sakes When you come tottering home so tired that you can hardly get up stairs, and throw yourself on the bed without even the strength to re- move your boots, we should appreci- ate your devotion in thus laboring to support us. Now, last night, dear, when you stumbled over the rockme. chair, and found yourself obliged to cling to the headboard to support your weary form, you presented a really sad example of the overworked husband and father. When your shattered nerves caused you to upset my fresh hottle of cologne, and scat- ter the contents of my work-basket over the floor, you really looked the typical martyr ot married life. Of course you do not remember it, dear. You were too tired and worn out with that horrid customer tp remember any- thing. What a dry stupid time you must have talking business up to 3 o'clock in the morning, and you look 80 sleepy and used up this morning. I would really imagine you had expe- rienced a severe illness if I didn't know it was those terrible racking business cares which pull you down 80. Isee you have quite lost your appetite, dear. You haven't even touched your steak. Now, dear, this will not d¢. You must not apply yourself 8o closely to business. It is killing you,” and Mrs. Breezy's mouth curled into a decided sneer as she dug a tablespoon into the fried po- tatoes, “But, my dear,” said Mr. Breezy, making a heroic effort to swallow a little of the steak. ‘It was a most important engage—"' “‘Of course it was,” said Mrs, Breezy a8 she poured out a cup of coffee with trembling hand, *‘Of course it was, loye. Your engagements are always important. They will never keep over until morning, never. What if these engagements—theso very im- portant engagements—do occur five or six nights out of the week, Itisa sign of your prosperity. Should I complain if you are obliged to meet eur customers attheaters and concert lls, and at poker parties in out of the way hotels? No, dear, you are obliged to adapt yourself to your cus- tomers' mode of life. It isall in the way of business, and we short-sighted wives are very unreasonable to sup- pose for a moment that you frequent such places out of choice, when even instinet should teachus that you would much prefer being home in the bosoms of your families. You dear, abused husbands! How patient you are, to be sure, with us fidgety, unreasoning creatures!” and Mrs, Breezy pushed back her chair with L\rk and left the room. General Batler as a Lawyer.

John Bourke, Third cavalry, U, 8. army, and aide de-camp to Gen. Crook, was ono of the officers selected by Licut. Gen Sheridan some months since to make investigations into the habits, cte., of the Indians living within or contigu ous to the military division of Mis souri, The district assigned Licut Bourke was the southern half of the division, the northern portion being allotted to Capt. W, . Clarke, Scc- ond cavalry., Bourke has penetrat into a country never beforo traversed by a white man, and has written to Gen. Sheridan a long letter which con- tains a graphic account of a cur and horrible religious coremony among the remote and almost un- known Indian tribe, the Moquis of northeastern Arizona. They have an apostle whose identity has boen pre- served since they were first seen and partially described by Spanish Catho- ic missionaries in 10 THE RITE referred to is the snake-dance, Lieut. Bourke says the Moquis had the procession divided into two parts, one of the choristers and gu\lnl rat- tlers, the other of forty-eight men and children, twenty-four of whom carried snakes and the other twenty- four acted as attendants, fanning the snakes with eagle feathers. The horrible reptiles wire carried both in hands and in the mouth. It was a loathsome sight to see the long file of naked men carrying these monsters between thewr teeth and tramping around a long circle to the accompani- ment of a funcral dirge of rattles and monotonous chanti after a snake had been thus carried around the cir- cle, it was deposited in a sacred log of cottonwood sapling, covered with buf- fulo robes, and 1ts place taken by an- other. Thus it was not hard to caleu- late the number used, which was not far from one hundred—rather over than under; and half the number were RATTLESNAKES, The procession entered through an arcade, marchingin aline of arrow- heads four times around the great cir- cle, embracing both the sacred rock, and then formed in two singlo ranks, the choristers facing toward the pro- cipice and the dancers facing the sacred lodge. The ‘‘high priest,” as L call him, took station in front of the sacred lodge and, between it was the sacred rock, which latter is a grim looking pile of weather-worn sandstone 20 or 30 feet high, having a slight resemblance to a human head. At the foot of it i3 a niche, m which is apiece or black stone, bearing a very vague appearance of the human trunk; at the base of this idol are many VOTIVE OFFERINGS to propitiate the Deity to send plent ful rains, and as the procession il und the little plaza, the ‘‘high priest” sprinkles the ground f\*ilh wa- ter, using an carthern bowl and an eagle’s feather us a sprinkler. A sec- ond wedicine man twirls a peculiar sling and makes a noise like the fall- ing of copious showers. When the two lines are halted facing each other, the dancers, who are first provided with eagle feathers, wave them gently downward to the right and left, while the choiristers shake their rattles, making a noise like rattlesnakes, and at the same time sing alow and musi- cpl chant, When this is finished the “high priest” holds the bowl towards the sacred lodge, utters a low but au- dible prayer and sprinkles the ground agam with water, The singing and feather-waving are repeated and the first scene is over, Nothing at all horrible has occurred yet. But no time is lost before the SECOND PART OF THE CEREMONY commences, The choristers remain in their places with the ‘‘high priest,” while the dancers, two by two and arm in arm, tramp with measured tread in a long circle, embracing the sacred points already mentioned. Your blood chills as you see held by the men on the left snakes of all kinds wriggling and writhing, while the right-hand man keeps the reptilc dis- tracted by fanning its head with eagle feathers, There is no discount on this part of the business. Snakes are carried in the hand and mouth, and as T have already said some of the rattle- snakes were so large, over b feet, that the dancer could not grasp the whole diameter in_his mouth. As the pro- cession filed past the squaws at S., the latter threw corn meal before them on the ground. These snakes when thrown to the earth showed themselves in the most cases to be ex- tremely vicious and struck at anyone coming near. In such an event a little corn meal was thrown upon them, and the assistant running up fanned them with the eagle feathers until they coiled up, and then he quickly seized them back of the head. ~After all the snakes had been put under the buftalo robe covering the sacred lodge, there was another prayer and the second scene ended. THE THIRD SCENE commenced ahwost immediately and was as follows: The ‘snakes were seized by ones, twos and half dozens and thrown into the circle at E, where they were covered over with corn meal. The signal was given and a number of flect young men grabbed tho snakes in handfuls, ran at full speed down the almost vertical paths in the face of the mesa, and upon aching its foot let them go free to the north, the south, the east and west, The young men then came back at full run, dashed through the crowd and on to one of the estafas, where we were told that they had to swallow a portion to induce copious vomiting and to undergo other treat- ment to neutralize any bites they may have received, Of one thing T am assured; the Moquis medicine men know more about sunakes than any people on earth, the Asiatic snake charmers not excepted, Nearly a Miracle.
