On the passenger train going west yesterday evening were a large number of travelers, many of whom wers coming weat for work and others to settle. Among the latter was a gentleman (whose name at this writing i1t has been impossible to correctly learn) with several members of his family golng west te look and settle on some land. Aboard the traln were several confidence men and thieves who were playlog the almost thread-bare game of pretending to hire men, get them to stop at a depot, pretend to buy tlokets for them, and then sudden- ly find that an express package ls in the office for the gentleman who Is hiring the greenhorn and who has only a check, on which he borrows of the new hired man asum Incash until he can go to the bank—which he never does. But there were some of the light-fingered there be- sides these fellows, and they put in thelr time pretty advantageously it would seem. Among the paseengers as we have seen was the man of family, who for con- venience shall bs called Smith. He was unsaspecting and perhaps thinking over his now home, consclons that he had his and his family’s fare pald, and a_goodly aum in his pocket to start on. When he got to the Omaba depot he found that his effocts were gone, tickets for himeelf and family alse. Some four or five of these. He took steps to find the thieves and submitted the matter to an officer. "I'he rosult was that Smith and his party with one officer, perhaps more, began to to search for the parties whom he sus- pected of the crime and finally found them at supper in a restaurant on or near Douglas street.

Roberts, although he stoutly denied everything and refused to tell his business, residence, etc,, had on his person a nice silver watch and chaln, one hundred dollars and seventy cents in cash and some four or five different rail- road tickets, He explalned the tlckets by saying he had them, and as he got off’ at different stations along his route look- ing for work, he would not give them up to the conductors.

Tweuty centuries ago last Christmas thers was born in Attica, near Athens, the father of oratory, the greatest orator of whom his tory has told us, His name was Demosthenes, Had he lived until this spring ho would have ‘been 2,207 years old;buthe did not live, De- mosthenes has crossed the mysterious river. He has gone to that bourne whence no travei- er returns, Most of you, no [doubt, have heard about it. On those who may not have heard ahout it, the announcement will fall with a sicken- ing thud, his sketch is not intended to cast & gloom over your hearts, 1t was designed to choor those who read 1t and make them glad they could read, Therefore T would have beon glad if T could have spared them the pain which this sudden breaking of the news of the death of Demos- thepos will bring. But it could mot bo avoided. We should remember the transi- tory natura of life, and when wo are tempted tobonst of our health and strength and weslth, let us remember the sudden and early death of Demosthenes, Demosthenes was not_born an orator. He struggled hard and failed many times. e was homely and he stammered in his spoech, but before his death they came to him for hundreds of miles to_get him o open their county fairs and jerk the bird of freedom baldhuaded on the Fourth of July. When Demcsthenes’ father died he left fiteen talents to ba divided batween Demos- thenes and his sister. A talont is equal to about 1,000, 1 often’ wish that T had been m A LITTLE MORE TALENTED, Demosthenes bad a short breath, » hesitat- ing spesch, and his manners were very un- graceful, To remedy his stammering he filled his wouth full’ of pebbles and howled his sentiments at the angry ses, However, Plutarch says that Demosthenes made a gloomy fizzlo of his first speech, This did not discourage hum, He finally became tha smoothest orator in that country, and it was no uncommon thing for him to fill the First Baptiet church of Athens full There are now sixty of his orstions extant, :m of them written by his private secro- ary. When he started io, he was gentle, mild and quiet in his manner; but later on, carry- ing his audience with bim, he at last became enthusiustic. He thunderad and roared, he d, he howled, be jarred the windows, the air, he epiit the horizony with arion notcs, he tipped over the table, kicked the lamps out of the chandeliers aud smashed the big base viol over the chief fiddler’s head, Ob, Deuiosthenes was business when he got started, It will be a long time before we see another off-hand speaker like Demosthenes, and I for one have never been the rame man since I heard of his death, “‘Such was the first of orators,” said Lord Broughsm. ‘At the head of all the mighty masters of speech, the adoration of ages has consecrated his place, and the loss of the noble instrument with which he forged and launched his thunders is sure to maintain it unapproachable ferever,” Thave always been a great admirer of the gratory of Demosthenss, aud thoso who have heard both of us think there is a certain de- gree of similarity in our style, And not only did I adwire Demosthenes as an orator, but as a man, and though 1 am no Vanderbilt I feel as though I would be will- ing to head a subsciiption list for the purpose of doing the square thing by his sorrowin fe if she is 10 want, as I understasd !hn% @ 8.
