The Oity's Mayor and His Brass Band Fail to get ont Voters to Decide a Bond Question—Notes, TH £ DAY AT THE CAPITAL, Reported by The Ber's Burean, GENERAL 1T Reported by The Bex's Bureau, Lixcowy, Neb,, July 1 —The election on the funding bond question held Tues- day, passed of quietly, in fact, too qulet- ly for the good of the bond question as there were less than one-third of the vot- iog population that cared to cast their ballots on the question. The intention of the elcction was to re-fund about §50,- 000 of bends lasued, the larger portion of them having been given to the Lincoln & Northwestern with the privilege of re. funding them at a lower rate of iatereat at the end of five yeara. Ouat of nesrly 3,000 votey in the city, there were 970 votes cast for funding thejbonds and cne voto against fundlog. While there Is no flaating Indebtedness of the clty it would seem a little strange to have the ballots read ‘‘for funding bonds.” The com- piled statates of tho state eec. 120, page 128, provide for re-fauding bonds while the section just prevlous provides for funding and they read qulte different. If the bonds were suthorized and are lagal, there is probably no doubt about the expediency or mnecessity of refund- them at a lower rate of in- a8 there Is no money to pay them and there is a vast difference between funding bonds and re-funding bonds. Besides it would be well to agl- tate the subject a fow days before tbe election 5o that at least ® respectable vote might be got out and thus save the mayor from gotting out a brass band and followlng 1t in person requetting voters to tnrn out and save the crediv of the olty which was probably not saved by yesterday’s vote. It will be remembered that the interests of the stroct railway charter wers notallowed to be jeopsrdised bya light vote &nd it will ba quite hard to dispose of g0 large an amouut of bonds apon so light a vote and such question- able grounds as wera connected with the achemo of the funding pond question of Tuesday last. One by one the claims of tho genile- men of the Stinking Water brigade are secking light as t2 how they may be ena- bled to prove up or pay out on thelr clalms and thus drive westward the naughty cattlemen who are so dreadfally numerous in that viclnity, One J. B. Wallace, & former resident of Hastinge, fs very anxious to sscare his title, bat seems to suspect that the apeclal sgint who Inveatigated that matter somewhat 1s standing tn with those navghty, bad cattlemer, and never for a moment seems to realiza that Mr. Coburn, the special sgent, was ment to In- vestigate and keep fraudulent proofs from accomplishivg the purposes of the orlginal filing papers. Some of those worthy gentlemen, if they will shake themselves a fow times and brush back their hair, will probably remember mak. ing sworn statemeuts daring that investi- gatlon—parbaps with the {dea that if they would be good to the special agent and tell him all, it would get the other fellows into trouble and they would be allowed to secure the coveted prizs, But the special agent seems to ba a man who purposes doing his duty regardless of the classic aesoclation of those who desire to keep the roaming cowboy from inhabit- ing that glorlous land. So far Mr. Co- burn’s action In this celebrated case has proven him to be on the elde of the gov- ernment as against the land grabbing echeme. Tho old ealt land lesses have met the etate and the board is not theirs, or in other words, the board refuse to Investa dollar in the scheme unless the old iease is cancelled, and it fs understood the present ownsrs will go ahead and im- prove and work their plant, The jug breaking at the Commorcisl hotel by Mrs. Imhoffa Sanday school class for the benefit of the new church, resulted in sacuring $153. Refreshments wera served by Mrs- lmhoff, and an en- joyabie time was had, Tho home of the frlendless realized about $200 through Bobby Shafto, which will materlally assist them in furaishing their now house, Tfie Milfordites will have an excarsion from Lincoln on the fourth, and many of our citizens will tako advantage of the cool lakes amid the pleacant groves of that summer resort.

THE SMOTHERED SENSATION. The Faels Rna Dowa by & Be> Repor- 1er and Captared. Circumstances Leading to the Shoot- ing—A Broken Arm the Result, Tueedsy morning the Bre published two or three “‘cticks ” of matter, headed “A Smothered Sensation,” and gave therein the rumors of a little shooting scrape, but such strenuous efforts had been made to keep the affair qulet that reporters found jt almest like pulling teeth to get at the facts. However, thé young men whote busl- ness it is to gather every vestage of daily or nightly happenings, and chroniclethem in plain, unvarnished English for the readers cf this paper, deelre to quietly murmar that it will ba the coldest kind of a cold day when any shooting scrapzs in Omaha get away from them. Living up tothe truthfulness of this declaration, then , the facts of *‘A Smothered Sensa- tion” are these, exzept that the names of the partles implicated are withheld: In a French flat on North Slxteenth street, overloving Jefferson equare, two attractive young ladies have tor some months been occu- pying luxariously furnished qaarterr, and asa general thing employing the'r time flirting with rural ‘greys” who have plenty of money and a die- position to let go of it llke blooded sports of the turf. These two young women also boast the pozsesslon of a ‘‘solid muldoon” each, and quite frequently they have been seen enjoylng evening spins on the avenue with them. The Freuch flat mentioned s of modest ex- terlor pretenslons, and Is reached by an easy |flight of stalrways. At an unusually late hour one nlght not long since a prominent stock man conslderably under the influence of sod corn bocz struck the bottom of these stalr ways and think- ing no doubt, that he was getting home and into his own domicll, unsteadily made his way up and soon found himself seared amid the enchant- ing surroundings of the aforesaid luxu- rious quarters Dirregtly thereafter one of the solid Muldoons mentioned made his appearance on the scene and seeing the stock man there begen to fill up with rogo and explode. Attempts to explain matters seemed to have only increased his wicked wrath, 8o finally he drew a revolver from his hip pocket and fired one shot at the stock man. The ball took effect In hls left arm and broke it. With that matters subsided and all par- ties turned their attention fn the direc- tlon of efforts to hush the affair up zs much as possible, and keep 1t quiet. Howevor it was nec2ssary to call a mes- senger boy who cculd summen a doctor to dress the wounded arm, After that job had been complsted Mr. stock man went away and has kept himeelf ehady over since. The yourg ladles have also moved into other quarters four or five blocks further oot and the solid maldoons tremble with feer lest they shonld be exposed. So well have the partles encceeded in keeplog the affair secret that 1t is thought best not to glve thelr names now.

That this fact is now weoll known to and comprehended by overy one is sufliclent In {tself to furnish hours of gosalp, Baut for all that Smith's departure was georgeously surprisiog to hundreds of people, who on account of his smooth, sffable and courteous ways, had come to like him very much, While not much given to soclety, the young prince war, never the less, a ‘‘masher” and a ladies man, When in the company of ladles, or with congeniel male epirits, it iy eaid that he was a pleasant converaa- tionalist, and was often wont to relate in glowing terms his experiences, when or the stock exchange; how excit- ing it was to win fabalous sums of money in a few hours which was frcuently the case with him, Having been reared In idlo luxury, and postessed of an ambi- tlon to be a *‘silver king” himeelf, the young man started out determined to amass a fortune, anyway that he could do it the quickest. After, being successfal as a stock gambler in Chicago, he de- termined to seek a location, where the opportunities were better and more numerous, for attracting attention and galning notorlety, and selected Omaha as the place. His career here has been told untll every child almost in the city has it by heart. The only thing that prevented Smith from car- rylng his scheme to a com- plete consummation, was the refusal of bis mother to help him out at this par- ticular time, 8o that he could have paid up his July bills, then he could have purchased on credit half & million dol- lars worth of goods for the fall trade, and that is undoubtedly what he in- tended to do from the etart. With thls amount added to the stock he already had on hand he could have scooped in & very nice awag. Nothing new hes been heard as to the runaway's present whereabouts, There is no daubt, however, but that he is in Carada having & good time.
