M. C. A, held a most _entertain- ing mesting in their hall yesterday evening, The aunouncement was made that at stated perlods services would, at the request of the prisoners, be held in the jail. The young ladies, pupils of Brownsll Hall school, presented a fine appearance Sun- day morning as they marched into the cathe dral to hear Bithop Worthington's salutatory sermon, —Jack Nugent and Robert Green were arrested Saturday by Uity Marshal Cum: minga for keeping a disorderly house—Buck- ingham theatro—and will be tried next Saturday. —A young man last night at the lecture in Metropolitan hall on spiritualism said, if the next world is filled with all that is really beautiful, numbaers of ladies he knows should embrace the faith at once and hurry their travels thither, The wretch! The report that Sam Gardaer, of road house fame, was shot the other night is de- nounced by that gentleman as utterly false, The rumor found some remote foundation of truth in the fact that he met with a severe accident some days ago, breaking his shoulder cap. —John M. Brett, of Wood River, well known in this city, was acquitted at Grand Tsland last week of the charges growing out of the “Wood River war” a8 it was known, except that he pleaded guilty of assault and battery and was fined $100and costs, The charges were very serious and the case excited much interest there, The slaughtering houses in South Omaha have been running very light during the past fow weeks on account of thegreat difficulty of obtaining the sufficient number of hogs, The shipments are now very light, prizcipally, it ia supposed, on account of bad roads, Itis believed that with the opening of spring the stock shipments will immediately revive. —The quantity of dust flying about the air Saturday was absolutely horvifying, If experi- ence of the past may guage that of the future|it is fair to suppose that the sprinkling carts will be trotted cut about the time that half of the people are in the blind asylum and the other half have discounted the future on the score of profanity. The Omaha Polo club with the accom- panying excursionists to the number of about sixty-five, returned from Lincoln abou} 11 o'clock Saturday morning and reported that they succeeded 1n defeating the Lincoln club by a score ot 2 to 0, The excursion was de- layed nearly eight hours by the wrecked bridge near Valley, —The ice in the Platte so far has done no great damage, though 1t severely strained two spans Friday night by running forcibly down against the piles, The ice is gradually melt ing, and will probably move outin a fow days. If the bridge stands that no injury of any moment will ensus, The water is run- ning over the road on_this side, and it is not safo to cross ono of the small bridees, Teams cross theslough. —The Metropolitan hall lecture last night was well attended and the audience gave a most earnest and decorous attention to the lecturer Mrs, Hull, The theme was “The 0Old and New, or the Religion of Modern Spiritualism.” The lecturer is an earnest, uent and interesting spesker and makes many admirers by her liberal modo of deal- ing with those who honestly differ with her in opinion, —M. O'Connor's saloon was burglarized Friday night by some unknown party who romoved & pane of glass from back window. Whon the place was examined the back door Heary Verpoorten Shet Down in Cold Blood by Thomas Ballard, The Murderer Confesses the Orime and Gloats Over the Deed. “I Meant to Kill Him, and I am Glad 1t's Done"—Details of the Sun- day Tragedy. At qaarter past alx o'clock _last night JHenry Verpoorien, a bartender employed In the St. James hotel, was shot and in- stantly killed by Thomas Ballard. THR SCENE OF THE MURDER wasat the[St. James hotel, situated on Tenth street, opposite the Union Pacific depot. Shortly after 6 o'closk, Ballard, who is employed as night clerk and runner for the house, pushed his way Into the bar- |P room, situated in the basement of the building, and walked up t> the bar, be- hind which Verpoorten was standing at the time. He drew his revolver, at the smme tims saylng in an exclted manner, “Now I've get you, you s— of a b—h.” Verpoorten, who seemed to take the matter as a joke, and who probably didn't realizs that Baliard had any serlous Intentlons, merely smiled in reply. The latter fired his re- volver, at a range very close to the sur- face of the bar, The ball, 38-calibre, passed directly into the left eide of Ver- poorten’s breast, and being deflected by a rib, plerced the heart, He lived but two or three moments, explring after a fow spasmodic groans without saying a word, The bystanders immediately gave the alarm and Dr. Darrow was sum- moned. Everything was done in the way of applying restoratives, but a care- ful examinatlon disclosed the fact that life was extinct, as the aim of the fatal ball had been toc unerring. The dead man lay, almost as if asleep, behind the bar where he had been shot down in so cowardly a manner. There was little or no blood shed, and but for a slight rent in his clothing where the ball had pierced, there was nothing in the victim's out- ward appearance to disclose the fact of the murder. As for THOSE. WHO SAW THE SHOOTING, they all agree on the point of Ballard’s guilt. There were five persons in the room at the time, Samuel Stephenson, Charles Altstadt, William Wileon, Emil Obrwald and William Boquet. Stephenson, who is an employe of the hotel, and who was an eye-witness to the whole affalr, gives an Intelligent account of how it bappened. “I was standing by the stove in the middle of the room,” eald he, ‘“‘when Ballard opened the door and walked in. He stepped up to the counter and jerked a revolver on Verpoorten and fired at him. As he shot I heard him say some- thing like, ‘I bave you now, you s— of a b——Dh, and I'm going to kill you.’ Ver- poorten, as scon as he was shot, fell back without saylnga word. I Immediately jumped at” Ballard and, grasping him around the arms, threw up the hand which held the weapon. He flourlshed it in the air a lttle, but it was finally WRESTED FROM HIM by Alstadt and Wilson. As soon as we had taken the gun frem him, we let him go free in the room until the officers came and arrested him He did not appear to be Intoxicated, but was very much ex- clted and talked rapidly all the time about the matter. He said: ‘I bought that revolver to shoot the sa—— of a b——h, and Iamglad T did{t, I came here with the intention of killing Ver- poorten. I have done it, and I am not at all sorry, for, I did it to save the Damon family.” He was constantly making re- marks of this kind, and appeared to GLOAT OVER THE DEED, He was unmar- tied and had no relatives in this country exoeptjone rister in the east. He wasa man of peaceable disposlition, and never known to be unduly quarrelsome. He had been Intimate with Ballard during the perfod of his connectlon with the hotel, and, until a fow dayssgo, the most friendly feeling, apparently, ex- isted between the two men. The slight motive, already suggested, for the com- misslon of the crlme, can hardly be taken a8 the correot one, and it {s hinted that REVELA TIONS OF A STARTLING AND SCAN- DALOUS NATURE will be made, in the disclosure of the true state of affal. THE MURDERER. A reporter visited the county jall last night and eought an Intervlew with the man Ballard,fthere confined. He had been placed in a cell of /the tier usually tenanted by criminals of the more dan- gerous class, The reporter ascended the steps leading to the baleony and stood in front of Bal- lard's cell. A tall, uncouth looking man advanced to the door of the cell In re- sponse to the query of the reporter, ‘‘ls this Mr, Ballard? “‘That ismy name, eir,” rerponded the prisoner In a low, subdued tone. He further stated that he had keen in Omaha since 1868, and for six or seven yeara bad been conneoted with the St. James. Queationed ay to why he had killed Verpoorten, he replled with an air of braggadocio: ‘I don’t know that that is any of yours or the public’s d——d b ness.” “Dld you not tell Officer Pierronet that you killed Verpoorten because he was robbing Mrs, Damon?” oL ir, If T sald it, I said it. That's ‘Do you know the pevalty of killingla man with premeditation?” “Well, I've been hera a long while. 1 don't glve a —— —— what the penalty }s. lI wish you would go stralght to D The polics all class Ballard asa bad customer to handle. He s known around the depot as a brow-beatcr and a low ruffian, THE CRIME is one of cold blooded murder, pure and simple. No circumstances of palliation, 80 far as can now be discovered, exlst to fend off the fate which the murderer o richly deserves. The commisslon of the deed by ballard will be attested to by a number of witneeses, and unless the plea of ineanily is set up and successfully carrled out, there can be no escape for the murderer. Ballard had been drink- Ing freely all day, and while he was not thoroughly Intoxicated, this fact prob. ably had something to do with the com. mission of the crime. The weapon used was a Britlsh bull-dog, six chambered, of 38.calibre. Ballard bad bought another one earlier In the day, but it had been taken away from him by a friend who was apprehensive, from threats made by Ballard, that he might commit the crime with which he is now charged. 5 Y THE INQUEST, Coronor Drexel was summoned at once and was soon on the spot, taking Informal deposltions of testimony. The body of the dead man was moved tothe undertak- ing rooms at 1417 Farnam, and the in. quest will be held this morning at ten o'clock. District Attorney Estelle will conduct the examination for the state, ——— The Musical Union Concert, The Musical Unlon concert was the event of yesterday afternoon at the opera house. These concerts, which are belng gulded toward complete success by the Indefatigable efforts of Mr, Jullus Moyer, are meeting with increased at. tendance from week to week, and the one yesterday was better patronized than ever. As for the merit of the affalr, it s but necessary to say that the musical numbers were handled with the usual taste and finesse of this popular or- chestral organization, Detalled com- ment {s unnecessary.
