Honry Whitbeck. a U, P, Brakes- man Meets with an Un= timely Death. Pugilist Smith Exercises His Fistic Prowess on a Celestial, Moore's Maudlin Mistake, ] Yesterday was no ordinary day in the history of Omaha. The streets were thronged with pedestrians from morning until night, and the jeers and curses of drunken men continually fell upon the oars of the passer by. The saloons did an excellent business, and when their patronn became so0 inebriated as to be troublesomo they were turned out on to the stroet to be run into the city jail for drunkeness. The day’s history was con- cluded by the accidental death of one of Omaha's citizens, the wounding of another by a pistol-ball, the injury of a third by falling into an excavation while in a state of drunkencss, and (he severe battery of one of the city's cclestials by pugilist Smith. Pat Mehai's Mishap, Tho people in the vicinity of Thir- teenth and Farnam stroets wero startled by the report of a revolver yesterday af- noon about five o’clock. Tho passers-hy ran in the direction from whence the shot was heard and saw a man, with one hand on his abdomen and the other on his spine, holding them as if to staunch the flow of blood from & wound, go stag- gering down the street and finally fall upon the sidewalk. The wounded man was PAT MEHAN, WO HAD DEEN SHOT at the hands of Jack Kinney, one of the colored roughs of the town, Tt appears that Mehan and five of his companions were walking south on Thir- teenth street and when just at the alley south of Hellman's & Co.'s store they met Jack Kinney and 8am Tolson a pair of the colored youths of the city. Tt so happened that Mehan shuffled up against Kinney, whether intentionally or not is not known. Kinney incensed at this called Mehan as—n of ab—h. The colored youth was told that he should not be so fast at whickphe DREW 0UT A REVOLVER. 1t is said that Tolson told Kinney to ‘‘give it to him"” when he shot, the ball hitting Mehan in the abdomen. After Mehan had fallen to the side- walk he was picked up by his compan- ionsand carried to Dr. Hyde's office in the rear of Frank Roger's drug store in the Millard hotel blook. Dr. Hyde, who was not in, was telephoned for, and a messengor was despatched for Dr. Leisen- ning, They shortly arrived, and an ex- amination proved that a pistol ball had entered the right sido of the wounded man just below tho ribs, The surgeons at first thought the ball had penetrated the vitals, which would necessarily cause the wound to PIOVE FATAL, After using the probe for some time the ball was found, having entered the body at the place above stated. The bullet had passed around the abdomen downward and backward, and was tacen out just above the hip, about three inches from the apine. During tho time the surgeons were at work the crowd in front of the drug store kept continually increasing until it numbered several hundred. It was foverish and excitable, Several times THREATS OF LYNOHING were heard and under the leadership of a couple of determined men the crowd could easily have been persuaded to hang Kinney had he at that time been found. After the shooting Kinney and Tolson turned and ran up Thirteenth, When the Omaha Nationalbank had been reach- ed Kinney left the street and took up the alloy. He ran up & flight of stairs in the rear of Hornberger's saloon into a small hallway. Here he was found about an hour afterward by oflicer O'Boyle who made him HOLD UP IS HANDS until he had been secured. He was ta- ken to the oit{ jal anc later was removed to the one belonging to the county, His companion known among his race as Sam Sly was also arrested laver 1n the evening bat was afterwards released.

MEHAN'S WOUNDS being dreased he was taken to his board- ing house on Ninth and Howard, He rested easily there for some time but Iater complained of excruciating puins. Muhan at one time was foreman of Wake- field’s lumber yard and of late has been at work for the Chicago Lumber eom- pany. He has always boen known as a » ud industrious young man, His physicians say he will be able to be out in & ocouple of weeks ‘Whitbeck's Shocking Death, Tho U. P, fast frotght train, No, 7, whose time of departure is 10:50 p, m,, left the d=pot Saturday night some min. utes bohind fimo. The train was con- ducted by Robert Shropshire, with Henry Whitbeck as rear brakesman, When the train had reached Waterloo orders were received to leave several cars at Valley, the next station beyond. To save time Whitbeck stated to the con- ductor that he would GO OUT OVER THE TRAIN, while it was making the next station and be ready to uuneouple ro soon as it had atopped. ~ When valley was reached Whitbeck was not on the train, It was soarched but he could not bo found, In- stead of going back to Waterloo to find the miesing man the train weut on to its deatination, Iuformation was left, how- ever, at Valley that the man had been wissed, but nothing more was done, The crew of train No. 11, that left Omaha about midnight heard THE CALLS OF A MAN a8 they were running from Waterloo to Valley but thinking them to be the cries of a tramp who wanted to board the train no attention was paid to them. Orders wore sent from Omuha to M. Lowry, con- ductor of No, 10, that he should look for Whitbeck between Valley and Waterloo, When within nearly a mile of the last named place Whitbeck was found on the north sido of the track in an unconscious condition. Upon examination it was found his right leg from the knee down was MASHED INTO A JELLY and that he had bled profusely from his wound. He was put on board the train which arrived here between six and and eleven o'olock yestorday morning. He was taken to St. Joseph's hospital where he remained unconscious until b p. m, when HE DIED the exposure and the great loss of blood being the oause of his death. His body was taken to Coroner Maul's office, where it now lies. It has not been decided to hold an inquest, as the coroner will act on the advico of the county attorney in the premises. WHITBEOKS was about 35 years old and boarded at 911 North Eleventh street. 1t is not known that he had any relatives in the city but_his paronts reside sixty miles north of Grand Island in this state. Whitbecks has been to work for the company for some time and was cousidered a sober and reliable employe. A Chinaman Badly Beaten, 0. H. Smith, the Chicago pugilist, seems to have taken no warning from Hanley's fate. He was walking down Twelfth street yesterday mormng, in a semi-intoxicated condition, and called upon Chung Wing Foo, who runsa laun- dry near the Theater Comique. A QUARREL AROSE between them growing out of a former difficulty, The celestial undertook to put Smith out of doors, who in turn set upon the Chinamen and _administered a torrible beating. Smith kept up his recreation upon Chung Wing Foo until an officer arrived and took him ts the city jail and laft him to the care of city jmtlor Gorman. In the evening he was BAILED OUT by one of his friends. The Chinaman insists on prosecuting him and has en- gaged the services of an attorney to look after the case for him, Moore's Misfortune. An old man named Moore well filled with the ardent and not being satisfied with the cross walk over Twelfth street just north of Farnam scaled the pile of dirt almost in front of the Nebraska Natlonal bank AND FELL HEAD-FOREMOST into the excavation about ten feet deep. It was thought at first ho was severely injured, as he lay motionless in the pit. Dr. Hyde was sent for, but before he ar- rived the unfortunate man was lifted out when it was ascertained he recived noin- juries other than a severe shaking up. Ho was taken to the city jail where he was left to become sober. C— A Strange Disaypearance, About six weeks ago a man came into Omaha from the west, with his left arm in a badly shattered condition, the result of a discharge from a rifle. He came here for treatment and was taken to St. Josepl's hospital. He has received the best of medical aid and aesistance, and the arm, which at first was in a very bad condition, was gradually recovering and A CHURCH SCANDAL. The Scalawag President of the Printers’ Union in a Dirty Scrape. Charges of Immorality Filed Against Him in 10th Street M. E. Church. He Makes a Pablic Humiliating Ack. nowledgment Yesterday, and Protends Penitence, For some weeks past the members of the little M. E. churchon South Tenth streot have been considerably exercised over the outrageous conduct ot one the “brothers,” said ‘‘brother” no less a per- sonage— (it would be hard to be less)— than Kellogg O. Gould, the blatherskite *‘president of Omaha typographical union No. 190.” There has indeed for months been much more than a vague idea among the majority of the memb s that the gentleman of the euphonious name and frageant reputation was a black sheep, and some of them were inclined to hold their noses when he was in class or prayer mesting. About two weeks ago, the feeling in reference to him took shape in a petition signed by a large num- ber of the brothers and sisters, making SPECIFIC CHARGES OF IMMORALITY against him, A week ago yosterday Gould appeared at class-meeting, and made a very servile and abject acknow- ledgment of all the charger, and prom- ised that on yesterday he would repeat the same in open church., 8o shortly after the morning seewhess Bad begun, and just previous 4 M @wwmon, Rev. Mr. Stewart aggasetie® $80 painful sub- ject in a somewfilh emo@pessed manner. Ho stated the caso conMsely and em- phatically—of how the charges of immor- ality had been made in writing by a num- ber of church members; of how they had been laid before Gould; of how he had indorsed in writing on the back of the paper an acknowledgment of the truth of the accusations;how he hadsubsequent- ly presented himself in person to Mr. Stewart, and made another avowal of his guilt and a profession of penitence, then again at class meeting. Gould being pres- ent yesterday, was asked to again make public avowal, which the fellow of infin- ite audacity did with all the humility of asaint. Mr. Stewart also referred to the DRUNKEN ORGIE AT HASCALL'S PARK, which he mildly denominated a public de- monstration, parade and picnic on the Sabbath and touched lightly on Mr. Gould as being one of the attendants. The fact is, Gould was the prime inatiga- tor and engineer of the whole affair, and a sharer cf the spoils secured from a few decent workingmen and a pack of roughs It was stated yesterday afternoon that a number of uew charges had been filed against Gould, and that the decent mem bers of the church are determined that THE HYPOCRITE MUST GO, They say they have no faith in his pro- fessions, and that if he is allowed to re- main in the church, they will be compell- ed to go elsewhore. At the conclusion of the services yes- terday, a subscription was taken up for various purposes, ‘a number of the mem- bers giving $5 apiece. A good many were afraid lest Gould should subscribe and that the church would be in doubt as in a few days the patient would have been ready for his discharge. Soveral days ago he received quite a sum of money, amounting in all to about §1,700 from his mterests in the westand has suddenly disappeared. Whether he intentionally left or whether there is a mystery connected with his disappearance nobody knows. Ho paid his board bill at the hospital all along un- til latterly he has fallen behind to the amount of $16. Ho has never paid a cent of his doctor bill and cpnsidering the fact that he had plenty of money it seems very strange. The man's name is Mont- gomery and there are those who would like to know where he is. N CAUGHT BY A OROOK. A Hawkeye Relieved of $67 by a Con- fidence Man, “ Where are you going 7 said a stranger to Mr. Bultsolph, in a very fam- iliar way, on Saturday last, as he was coming down from the depot. Mr. Bultsolph ceplied that he was on his way to Boone, Iowa, his home, from North Platte, in this state. *Your son,” said the stranger, ‘‘does his trading with me in that town, where I keep a branch grocery store. 1 am now on my way to Boone, but I am in some trouble about some goods that I brought to the city to-day.” Mr. Bultsolph and his companion conversed in easy terms, and went to- gether to the Millard Hotel, where the former intended to stay over Sunday, He was prevailed upon by the stranger, how- ever, to go to the Metropolitan. The two men then started for that hotel, but went by it without going in, Mr, Bult- solph being persuaded to go down the street a couple of blocks to see the stranger’s goods, which he had just brought to the city. The two men were crossing Eleventh street at Douglas, when a third party came up and demanded payment from Mr. Buttrolph’s companion for hauling his goods up town, The stranger went into his pocket for the moneys but could find nutging but his own check for $100. “‘Can't you lend me encugh to him?"” aaid he to Mr, Buurolp“h. il Mr, Bultrolph then pulled out his wal- let to give bim the money and was count- ing it out when the stranger seized the pocket book saying, **I can count faster than you can.”” The strsvger then slip- ped around the corner disappeared, and the rustic Hawkeye, still unconscious of the trick played upon him, went to find where the stranger's goods were stored. Bemg unable to find them the fact dawned upon his mind that he had been made the victim of a conficence man. He went to an officer and told his story but all trace of the sleek stranger was lost Bultrolph lost about sixty-seven dollurs —all the monoy he had with him. He staid at the Motropolitan over Sunduy and this morning he will go home on & ticket whieh Mr. Jcslyn, the proprietor, bought for him, to whether or not the money had been obtained from Gould’s grab in the sell- ing of beer stand privileges at the Has- call park debauch or came from the hand of some demi-monde who attended, and all drow a breath of relief when the sub- scrintion was closed without his offering even a nickle. Two five dollar subscrip- tions were made payable only in the event that Gould would retract all the falsehoods published by him for some weeks in several disreputable papers in this city, and acknowledge his sorrow for them and for THE BROTHEL LANGUAGE used by him in publishing them. It seemsa shame that the little church is unable to shake off this leech, It ap- pears that according to the Methodist discipline, if a member acknowledges his in and professes repentance, it is impos- siblo to expel him no whatever what his crime. The membership of Tenth street church are of tke most respectable people in the city, many being the sturdy old-style Euglish Methodist, who are THE VERY SALT OF THE EARTH in high-minded principle and all the vir- tues. How he can fasten himself into this little fold, where he is as much out of placo as & pig ina parlor or a devil in heaven, is a mystery that some of the members are determined to fathom. They say he has got to go or they will go, and the fraud's presence threatens a dis- ruption of the church. GERMAN AMUSEMENTS, The Turner Quartette Club at the Germania Hall and “Anna-Leise" at the Stadt Theatre, TURNER QUARTETTE CLUB, Last ever Germadia Hall was fairly filled with an enthusiastic and apprecia- tive audience who had assembled for the purpose of taking in the initial entertain. ment given under the auspices of the popular Turner Quartette club, Irvine's well-known orchestra opened the enter- tainment with some choice selections, after which terpsichorean exercises were varticipated in by all present. The Turner Quartette club, which has become very eflicient under the able leadership of Mr, Henry Haubens, saog one of Arndv's famous productions, and being vociferous- ly recalled gave a very pleasant rendition of “*Farewell to the Alps. Mrs. Baories read a very amusing dia- logue on the subject of the marriage state and received quite an ovation, Some ardent adwirars of the talented young lady presealed her with a very handsowe boquet at the close of her per- formance. After some more dancing Mr. Bauries msde his appearance on the stage, made upas a religious hypo- orite and created mush genuine mirth by his artistio rendering of a truly comic song.

His make up was exceedingly good and his mannerisms were perfectly correct. This is the first entertainment of the kind that the Turners have ever given in this city and judging from the crowd that attended last night it is going to be a big success, The Turners get there every time, THE STADT THEATER, Last evening Miss R. Spahn made her second appearance on the boards of the German theater as Anna.Liese, in Hersch's well kuown play of that name. She was emiaently successful and was loudly applauded. Mr. Molchin, as Leo- pold, the young prince, enacted his role very creditably and Mra. Mader made a fairly good Princess Henrietta, although she is scarcely fitted for the part. Mr. Pechtel as Gottlieb Foehse, the druggist, was well received and Mr, Puls-Ahl made an_ imitable Marquis de OChalisac Mr. Schmidthoff played the character of Von Salbery, the village marshal, very commendubly, and Mr. Niemann made the most of the character assigned to him, that of George, the druggists as- sistant. Mr. Linaemann created much amusement by his amusing personation of the prince’s servant. Mrs Puls-Ahl and Mrs. Niemann, who played respect- ively Aunt Liese and Jette, rendered of- ficient aid in making the performance the great success which it proved to be. The musical union orchestra eupplied some soul inspiring music during the evening. Tue Union Pacific are now running Dummy Trains including Ferry cars to Broadway in Council Bluffs, and will run traing during the races at Council Bluffs May 27, 28, 20 and 30 so as to ac- commodate all who may wish to attend. In the six races in which entries clores May 20 there are 56 entries, and over thirty noted horses not entered in stake races are now in the grounds that will be entered in the purse races that closes the evening preceeding the races. 26-4y ANOTHER MURDER. Too Bkt Ploreed Boty o @ Man Fonnd Near Bellevne. The Man Evidently Murdered and Thrown Into The Missouri River, Murders are becoming so common in this section that the announcement of such a crime scarcely makes one start and a newspaper reporter is coming to regard it as a cold day when he cannot adorn the local page with a first-class murder. The latest crime which has been un- earthed came to light in Bellevue Fri- dav. George Stevens, E. M. Stevens wnd John Hiatt were on their way to this city in a skiff, and as they neared the county line, they discovered the body of a man floating in the water. They secured it and towed it down to Bellevue, and telegraphed the coroner at Papillion. When the coroner reached the river bank the body was still in the water, fastened to a tree with a long rope. The coroner impaneled a jury and made a thorough examination. The corpse was clad in’ a neat suit of tweed, cut in the latest fashion, and dressed throughout as a man of means. The fea tures of the corpse were regular when first taken from the water, but on expo- sure to the air blood began to ooze from an ugly gash over the left eye. Just be- low the lefi arm pit was a bullet-hole large enough to admit a man’s finger, evidently made by a forty-four calibre revolver. The ball had passed entirely through the body. The neck was circled by a broad blue mark as if a rope had been wound about it to produce strangu- lation, A jury was empanneiled and the only COMPARATIVE WORTH or BAKING POWDERS.
