The contractor apparently f{a debilltated on azcount of the hot weataer, for there are but few workmen engaged oa the bailding, and things deag in » most pltiable manner. The lazy creak of the loleting machine is heard, and presently a box loaded with bricity is landed at the second story. The anclent Egyptians used etraw in their brick to hold them together, but those used In the Nebraska capitol are fa no way slmilar, A reporter attempted to plck one up but {t crumbled in his hand, Another effort resulted In the same way. The e tire box was gone cver and when the task was compleied thete was not s whole brick in tho lot. Thesa brick are wsed on the main portion of the structure 10w in course of crectlon. The stone is brought from S.ouv's quarry at Louis- ville, shaped at the psnitentiary, and {hen taken to the capitol and set in posi- tlon. The work ls done by convlets, and often mlstakes are made What practical workmen oall “jolats” in many {nstances at the capltol ate very large and uneightly looklng. Cracksin the stone, omsified foundatlons, and streaks tlieough many stones, mar the looks of its extorlor work and add to the !mpresslon that & good job {4 not belng done. The architeot, Mr. Wilcox, is not here much and he loaves the details to the contrac- tor. The contracior leavas the work to his foreman, and the foreman ls very lenlent with Lis men, One or two con- victs lazlly chip stone In the enclosure, two or three men holet the blocks np snd four workmen sot thom in place, They seem to bo content if they ars eot plum®, and thiok no further of it. Over the west wing windows two of the largest ones havo slready cracked, and very badly, too. ‘There Is a necessity for bat- ter work on the capitol and the proper persons should take Immediate sters to eee that 1t is done.

Upon inquiry it was learned that the dead man was named Brooker Pickerell, and was a patlent at the In- savo asylum. Inquiry at the asylam failed to elicit much informstion, the officials there even being unabls to telt the man’s given name The doceacd came to the sasylum from Soward some four years ago and wasa man about . thirty yours of age. Hoe was married and had several children, Before his incarc:ration he made several attemp's to commit eulolde, and when recelved at the asylum had & wouud in his left elde, made durlng ono of those attompts at nelf destruotion.

The Omaba Catlls Trade and Commis- sioner Faithorn's Decision. —_— What the Ohicago Papers Have to Say Abont It—No Ohange in the Ruling Yet Made, Yosterday morning’'s Chaleags Times had the followlty in relation to the Omaha cattle trate which will bs read with considerable interest In railroad and cattlo circles: “A gpecial dispatch to the Times yes- terday stated that the cltizens of Omaha wore very Indignant over Commls- sloner Faithora's recent decisfon. It doubtioss reforred to the matter ex- plalned in Wednesday's lesue, relatlve to the llve stock traflis, and the advantages beretofore enjoyed at that place in mar- keting cattle. Under the old rule the Burlington & Missouri, Sioux Olty & Paclfic, and Union Pacific were given the benefit of the through rate on all cattle shipped to Omaha which, not belng sold, were roshipped to Chicago. It was a very pretty privilege, that market being allowed to absorb all that it could take, and send the surplas eastward. The Indignant cltizens are wasting their ire up to date, as no change has yetbeen made. Commissioner Faithorn, to whom the matter was re- ferred, went to Omaha, looked over the sltuatton, and upon his return merely recommended & plan to the managers embodying the features alrendy set forth. It is for the latter to say whether the plan will be put Into effoct, and thelr de- cisfon will not be given for a week or more. Should they fall In with the commissloner’s views, then it will bs timo for a howl from Omaha. They for- get that they are asking for what is rank dlscrimination, and a concesslon that no other polnt In tho country en- joys. Omahn is not on the ~direct through line of elther tha Burllngton & Miesourl or the Slonx Clty & Paclfic, and stock shipped over those roads must be diverted. To demand that cattle shall be sent to Omaha over these roadsand then, If not sold, get the benefit of a through rate, can not bo askedin jastice, and tho only ground it can be put fon is one of favor. If the monagers see fit to linten to the appeal that fs their privi- lege, but to abuso tho commlsrioner for a recommendation fo woll grounded in justlcs is a very foolish thing to do.” THE I0WA POOL The meeting of the superintendents and offisials of the Counc!l Bluffs lines, held & that placs Wednesday last, was not & grea' auccess in the way of results, eays the Chicago Times. At a previous meeting, held for the purpose of arrang- ing for better transfer facilitics, the Bue- lington was admitted to the privileges, and a commlttes appolated to report at tho noxt meetlng in regard to the divi- alon of expenses. That body r:commend- ed it be made on the baeis of the number of cars handled. Thls wasnot satisfactory to any of the rcads except Wabash and Burisngton, and the report was laid on the table. The other roads were in favor of an equal divition withoat regard to the number of cars. No farther action was| taken. Then the superintendents met ond attempted to arrange o schedule for ranning live-stock tralns on all of the roads, a subject that has been agitated for months past. There was a long dis- cassion, which ended in a disagreement, and the roads will in the future, as in the past, ran thelr trains without any refer- cuce to any system of the other roada. LUMBER RATES TO OMAHA, Ia reference to the proposed advance in lomber rates to Council Bluffs and Oaohs, mentioned in these colamus, 1t is underatood that all of the roads interested have agreed to it, and a joint tarifl will be 1ssued between August 15:h and 20th, patting it fnto effsct. _The rates will be, from Chicago and Peoria to Couacll lufis and Omsha, 18 ents per one hun- dred pounds.

LIQUOR AND LAW, The Mayor’s New Order and Some of 15 Altondast Resnlts, Prominent Saloon Men Arreated on Complaint of the Marshal—A Wordy War Between Ofiicialn ~The Mayor's Opinion. Tho crder by Mayor Boyd cloalng the saloons at midnight still contlones to be an Interesting tople In polles and other olrcles throughout the city, and many opinions, pro and con, have been ex. preesed regarding 't. While nearly all of the ealoons have given strlet heed to tho new order, 1t {s claimed that one or two places have evaded complylng with: the law by the use of varlous doevices Marshal Cummings, slnce recelving the order from the meyor, has expressed hls determlination that it ehall be strictly en- forced, if it fa in hls power to do mo. Alrendy one ealoon-keeper, John A. Woods, s under bonds to ap- pear for trlal in Septembar for fta viola- tlon, and yesterday afternoon, on com plaint of the marshal, watrants were fs. sued for the arrest of Honry Hornbarger, who owns, the mloonat 1319 Douglas sirset, and 0. 8, Higgins, whose ssloon and rostaurant {s oa the corner of Doug- 1as and Twelfth stroote, The ofticsr in whose hand the warrent was placed found Mr. Hornberger at bia placa of bueiness about 8 o’clcck yeater- dvy afternoon_and merved the paper They procseded at oncy to the police court, where they were met by Judge Stenberg and Marshel Cammings, Mr. Hornberger was Informed by the marshal that the ground 01 which the complaint was mads was tho keop- ing of the curtainy of his saloon tightly closed, thus concealing the interlor of the place from the eyes of the polica, which 18 contrary to law. He alto stated that tho belief was expressed thar, under cover of the curtalne, liquor bad boen sold after the hour of closing. Mr. Hornberger replied that he had sold no liquor after 12 o'clock einco tho new order went into eflect, and that the only resson ho had kept his curtains down was because he was constantly bothered by peopls on ths onteide who mado effor(s to enter the place as long as light was ehining through the windows. He eald thet if the marehal would keep his doors clear of thess peopls he would willingly expose the intezfor of his saloon to view. This tho marshal agreed to do, and on Mr. Hcrabarger’s promiso to let bis light ehino forth in the fatare he wlithdrew the complaint The warrant for Mr. Higgios was not served npon that gentleman until about 8 o'clock last evening, as he could not ba found until that time. The ground on L am eo afrald that my | go, which the arrest was made was stmilar to that in the Horaberg r case. Mr. Hig- glos accompanicd the officer to police headquarters, where A LIVELY SCENE ensued. Judge Stenberg and Marshal Cumm'ngs were bsth on hand. When Mr., Higgios put in an appearance Judge Stenberg called him asde and a long conver:aton was hold. At its close Mr, Higgins started at If to leave, when the marshal stopped him. “‘You are under arrest and can’t leave here,” sald Marshal Cummings, *Yes he can,” eald Judge Stenbarg; *‘I have released him on his own recog- nizance.” ‘It don't make any diff’.rance,” inter- rupted the marshal, “what you have do:ag. 1 haven’t taraed him over to you yet.” “I am the judge here,” exclaimed Juq,gu Stenberg, ““and Mr. Higgina can ¢‘No he can’t; he has got to stay here or furnlsh bonds,” safd the marshal. * How do you expect me to eaforce my orders if I don’s receive any support from you.” ““Well,” said the judge, “never you mind; Mr. Higgins can go.,” And Mr. Higgias departed. Both men were quite exclted by this time, and Marshal Uummings exclalmed: “‘Remember, Jadge, I hold you responsi- ble for thls.” . “‘All right, hold away,” answered the judge. ‘“‘That’s all the good it will do you,” THE GAMBLING HOUSES, Marshal Cummings stated that the case of Mr. Higgins was a peculiarly aggra- vating one, as he not only screened his bar-room, but kept a man watching the officors. Inslnuating remarks would also be mado when cfficers were passing the place. He expressed the bellef that Hig- gins slmply transforred his bar from the first to the second story after mic- night, acd that In the clozed rooms above liquor was freely dispenscd, “‘If this state of things continues,” sald the marehal, “I shall order gambling rooms situated over ealo:ns to close at midnight,and see If that will not have the denfred effect, 1t is In these rooms that | I believe the liquor fs sold.” BAWDY HOUSES AND LEER, In atalk with Mr, Hornburger, that gentleman eaid: *'I don't see why it fs that disreputablo houses throughout the city are allowed to sell wino and beer at exhorbitant prices all night long, and without sny license, elther, while respect- able prople, conducting a legitimate busi- near, are obliged to clcso st midnight, Why I have eeen csso after case of beer delivered in front of bawdy houses day after day, and it s all dispozed of at & dolla; ottle, Why don’c the mar- ehsl shut down on tham?” When tpoken to In the natter, Marshal reference to Commirgs | eald that if some one would only make a complaint sgalost these places he would cnly bo too glad to close themup. As the matter now sfands It {s impotsible for the officers themselves to secure testi- mony euflicient to cause a conviction, WHAT MAYOR BOYD SAYS. In a converaaticn with a reporter of lh_r:i Bee on the subject Mayor Boyd sid: *L 1 not aware that any Lquor bs ba- ing 8.1d snywhere In ibe city by persons who have not pald for that privilege, and itis thodaly of ths marshal to sso tha! all parties comply with the provieions of the ordinince, The maishal 18 not ex- pected to enter houses unless he Las res- ton to belleve them dlsoiderly, Mr. Horberger or sny other citizen has the privilege of making complaiot agsinet them, end if made thoy will be dealt with sccording to law.” Tho msyor further sald: *‘My Instroc tlona to the marehal are that sll saloons shall be closed at midofght and that no intoxicating liquor stall be sold between that hour and 4 o'clock a, m, Iam of the opinion thet the propristors bave vight to keep thelr curtalns down after 12 o'clock,” I regard tothe closing of saloons on Sunday the msyor eaid tuat if to all ep- pearanoces they were oloted 1t would be satisfactory to him, AT MIDNIGHT Inst night a1 the ssloons closed thoir doors, but Mr. Higgios' windows were entirely obtonred by curtains and the Intetior of the barroom was hidden from view. e t— London dealers i b'rds re when the hion was at its helght, a eingle consignment ,000 humming birds, and at ove time re- 130,000 aquatic birda and 300,000 wings, T SR TR R TEST YOUR BARING POWDER T0-DAT!
