THE OMAHA DAILY BEZ. TURIDAY, APRIL 13, 1838, "THEIR MARRIAE A MOCKERY A Bad and Wicked Husband and a Cold, Designing Wife, ¢ SEEKING TO BE SEPARATED. Creditors Pounce Down on Dr. Dogge in a Legal Way—Fighting for a License—State Capital News and Notes. [FROM THE REE'S LINCOLN NUREAC, Man's inhumanity to woman finds ample illustration in the records of I caster county divorce courts. At ne: every term the docket is burdened applications for legal separations, and in the large majority of cases the injured parties are women. Cruelty, neglect to support, and unfaithfulness are the causes commonly set forth for the grant ing of divorees, and the offense has to be very flagrant and unbearable before the wife will step into coart and make public ho burdens she is bearing. An instance of this is shown in the petition filed by Jennie Gilbert in the district * court yesterday. The plaintiff, by her attorneys, Messrs, Billingsly and ‘\\'vmd\\':lrm alleges that she was married to John Gilbert at Rush- ville, Il1s,, on July 4, 1873, and that soon afterward he began a systematic course of perseeution and abuse, cursing at and quarrelling with her at every opportu- nity. On the 15th of February, 1881, Mrs, Gilbert joined the church at 'i!llrlin;zlnn, which so incensed her husband that he ed his customary treatment by beat- ing her with a fence board and calllng her vile and opprobfous names. Three children have n born to this illy- mated pair, and the husband has been so far neglectful of his duty as to utterly refuse to provide ‘for their support, the mother being compelled to 0 to work us a house servant to keep them from starving. In addition to this bad_treatment, Mrs. Gilbert says that in Tebruary, 1885, the defendant com- municated to he loathsome di from which she suffered until the following, when, being eured, shy her children and left him. M Gilbert nsks f oree and liberty to resume her maiden name of Jennie Ross, which she should have without debate, A case of an entircly different nature is that of Albert E. Brunson vs Lillic N, Brunson, which was entered on the same docket yeste: In March, 1882, Brun- son, whose wife is an ex-school teacher, and seems to wear the pants, bought 160 acres of B. & M. lands near Cheney, in Lancaster county. Brunson swears that the defendant harassed and tormented him so that to get a little peace he gave her a promissory note for $1.000, secur by a mortgage on his stock and’ growing crops. Some time after, on the promise that she would surr: r the note and mortgage, Brunson assigned to his wife the contract for the land, on which only asmall payment is due and which has become a very valuable property. When ghe had ared this assignment Mrs. Brunson quictly sat down on Albert and refused to recognize his rights as pr prietor, selling oft the crops ‘and _pocket- g the proceeds, and otherwise con- ducting herselfas the boss of the ranch. Brounson now nasserts that _the transters were made without consideration and asks the courts to have them cancelled. He did this, however, yesterday when he was out of the reach and influence of stronger half. Whether he will ken when she fgots hor tinger on. Lim in, remains to be seen. ON DR, DOGGE’S TRAIL. The boldness of Dr. Dogge, in_buyi B8,000 worth of real estate in this city, nfter yirtually swearing on his trial that he was o bankrunt and claiming to be unable to give_$3,000 bail, has brought the creditors of Herold down on him in a drove. Abraham Hart and about fifty others have begun an action for the ap- hointment of o receiver and the salo of 0's property to satisf; L allego that their jud, Herold remain unsatisf t as they believe Dogge obtained $15000in cash nnd valuable real estate in Plattsmouth from Herold without consideration, part of which at least was used in purchasing the property in this city, they ask that the courts give them anequitable relief, Dogge, it will be remembered, pleaded poverty when asked to give bail to stand trial, and became an inmate of the Hotel Melick until the judge_reduced the bond hntuirml to $1,500. Now he blossoms out as tho owner of an $8,000 picce of property. ngs ng BRI MENTION. The fight over granting a_license to George Brown ~to sell intoxicating Jiquors in the town of Bennett, has got fnto the district court. Brown made his application to the town board in good shape, and presented a petition signed [,yzhiny-t.mr freeholders asserting that i is o good citizen and a responsible yan, This was offset by a memorial {rom twenty-six men and twenty-four adies, contending that Brown is not en- titled to a license because he has fr fluently violated the law, and is a man of bad reputation.

N Yorg, April 4.—We haye been in New York only a few days, but have seen many things of interest. Having a great desire to see an emigrant ship land, our first trip was to Castle Garden. We were fortunate enough to be there just as a ship bringing passengers from Norway landed. The emigrants left the ship in numbers and came trooping through the Battery park with their eyes and months wide open, staring at everything everybody they came ac There usually a lot of confidence men who can speak the language of these people, and they pretend to be their friends and tell them to come with them and they will get work, but they are soon robbed ot v\'cr?lhlng they have and left almost helpless. The next attraction was Coney Island and Brighton Beach. We went there Irine to sce the hotel, which 18 huilt in exactly the shape of an elephant, trunk, tail, and all. It is roofed with tin and painted the color of the animal it rll'px'nsf‘lns. It takes its name from its shap Congy Island is a famous resort for New York, Brooklyn and Jorsey City people during the hottest days of sum- mer. On this account a hotel of extra- ordinary size has been built there, the veranda facmg the ocean buiugl 3,000 feet (more than two miles) long. It has the approp: me of the Hotel Mam- moth. Our attention was next turned to Central par! We took one of the wagons which are provided to take vis- itors to the principal places in_the park. We rode from one end of the | tothe other, passing the famous Egyptian obelisk, the lake, tl and in fact all the would care to tan Museum of Art, whi park, and Museum of Natu: which is just outside, are free to all. ~All age and e rian drives are y kept, and are the favorite after- noon rides of many of the fashionable ladies of the city. 1 had long ago heard of Wall streot and the stock exchange, and, though I Dhad seen the former, I néver expected to see the latter. But, luckily for me, I happened to run across an eleventh cousin by the uncommon name of Smith, who was kind enough to take us through several large buildings, one of which was the stock exchange. Our visit to the bulls and bears happened to be on the mem- SrRbIG by e itstior April. We here saw this day commemorated as neyer be- fore. One of the bulls or bears, I can’t say which, had a p! 'd on his back with the words “Kick me hard.” This was an invitation which the greater part of the members could not resist, and herefore were heartily accepting i After leaving this place we went through the buildings of the Mutual Life Iusur- ance company, the produce exchange and the Equitable Trust company. These rank among the foremost buildings in New York, one of them being of white marble. ¢ Though there is nothing much to see, it a_ pleasant trip to_ go across the bay to Staten Island, on hich the Bartholdi tue of Liberty is being erected, the pedestal of which’is now built. On the cast end of Staten island is the old Fort Wadsworth, from which is obtained a commanding ew of the harbor, and the neighboring cities. Itis a pleasant walk out to the fort, the road all the way being along the Fort Hamilton on Long Island, ctly opposite, and Fort Lafayette is in the middle of the narrows,, between the other two. While speaking of islands, we will say that Governor Island, the place where General Hancock died. is plainly seen from Castle Garden. Anoth- er place of interest which we visi the Toombs. My friend happened to know an officer, through whom we ob- tained a permit, otherwise it would havo been difficult to have gotten admittance The place has an appropriate name, for the interior has not a very lively look. There is not much danger of the prison- ping, for the walls are twelv There is a special corridor used for murderers. It is led *‘Mur- derers’ Row.” In the court between the two parts of the prison, stands tho “Black Marla.” It differs from a_patrol wagon because the prisoners are locked mn, and cannot look out, there boing no windows. Only the worst class are put in this, In 1088, in the History is . this'same court is the beam from which the doomed prisoners meet their fate Another thing which is of interest to vis- itors is the el railroad. In the up- per part of the city one line runs very high above the Fru\md; its heighth is equal to that of the top of the story buildings. Space forbids many other points of interest.

The Tremendous Power of Persuasion the Key to the Whole Man, London Correspondence of the New York Times: But go some night when the premier is there—and note the differ- encel Itissuch a change as the fairy prince wrought on the enchanted palace. The benches are well filled, and the mem- bers—especially the new members—sit upright and with eyes wide open. The occupants of the front opposition bench look nervously conscious and apprehen- sive. Every speaker—and particularly if he be a new man—evidences by his manner, his voice, his delivery, that he is chiefly anxious to impress Mr. Gladstone favorably, and that he is really speaking to no one else. If there is a chance that the premicr is to speak, you will fi nd few oungers in the lobby—fewer still i the smoking roo There 18 an indeseribable f: in watching the great man towards the outer end of the govern- ment beneh listening to a debate. It may be that this is not his invariable rule, but at least I have never happened to see him in the house in any othe rb than eyen- ing dress—with i front than is ordinarily worn even here, where very much linen is the fashion. He leans back comfortably, with one thin leg over the other and with his eyes mus- ingly fixed on the great mace on the table before him, when in repose. The full top light shines on his long, bald crown, his clustering g side locks, and h shirt front, and makes him the conspicu- ous object of every eye. About 10 or 11 o'clock in the evening he always writes his daily letter to the queen, using a pad on his knee and @ quill’_pen, and it is on of the most familiar of his curious way s that this oceupation never prevents his hearing ac all that is going on. All t once > him stop writing and serew his head to one side like a very w old bird, and you may know that he heard something which interests him the speaking happens to be unusually good he will turn and look at the orator , as if delighted at the discovs lent. When lesser lights of the on—and the name of these wttacking him, he customarily d down 1nto his collar and at them; but if the assault be from somebody worth listening to, ay Churchill or Smith. he listens more graciously, expressing on his strikingly mobile face as the indictment goes on all his emotions—amusement, interest, di: sent, indignation, scorn, elation. No great actor ever knew better how to show forth more varied feelings in all their in- tensity on his face. And then to see him nod his head, or slowly shake it, in re- sponse to some controversial assertion! Lord Burleigh’s nod could not have been more subtly eloquent. When he rises to his feet a_great hush falls over the hou: It would not be ex- act to suy that all eyes are turned upon him, because he is at all times the focus of observation, butalight of interested ex- pectancy comes into every face, He be- gins in & low tone of voice, but there 15 such absolute silence that his first words never inaudible, and rarely indis He has been making notes duri peech he is to answer, but he will not refer to them once he is on his feet. His fcrm as he stands at_the side of the table, upon which he lightly rests one hand, does not seem as tall as'it really i s0 delicately is it proportioned. I wish there were Words in which to convey the sound and fibre of his voice. for until you are able to associate this with your image of the man the mental picture fails. It is unlike any other voice, just as Sarah Bernhardt's is; it has in itself the power of generating new sensations, new thoughts in the listener’s mind; it scems to have something of primordial wei ness in its suggestions—like the oce or the ‘‘forest primeval.’ Of orator as such, there will not be much. There will be nothing at ail to recall Wendell Phillips or Webster, or to sug- gost Castolar or Gambetta. It is not even the eloquenco of Bright or of Joseph Cowen. = There are no gesture: ve limited movements with one hand; there are no swelling outbursts of the voice, no tricks of rounded elocutionary po riods. One feels only at the outset that a great man is terribly in earnest; then, as the slow, careful, logical swe speech goes on one feel this ca ness is contagious its spirit, hangs approvingly upon its development, thrills with enthusiasm at its climax conclusions, The great orators whom I have named could eleetrify a legislative emblage, play upon its emotions at will, blanch its cheeks, quicken its pulse, command its wildest plaudits—but after the specch was over the votes would be cast just as if it had not been made. There are no such physi xeitements in listen- ing to Mr. Gladstone, He does not storm your senses—he conquers your reason, convinces your judgzment. This tremeudous power of 'pm'unsion is the key to the whole man. It accounts for both his stren th and his weakness. I 80 superb, 8o matchless an arguer that he can lead English sentiment around after him wherever he wants to go. But he is also so wonderful a caswist that he persuades even himself out of his own !udgmcnt sometimes, and then leader and led alike go into the diteh, Sentimentand shrewdness are curiosity mingled in_his mental control. He may be us cautious as Machiavelli up to a certain point; then he will be for a time as open and unsus- peeting as Lady Jane G and then all at once flame forth with the passionate fervor of a Loyola. Yet ail the time he will be, in his intentions, deeply consci entious and sincere. Toward ‘whatever point of the compass his steps may really Ll-, directed, his moral vison will be upon the north star of political enfra chisement and advancement. Hence it has ppened that while the clever men of his party, able at least to see that hoe was temporarily in the wrong path, have often held aloof from him, the masses of the English people, having supremao faith in his intentions, haye followed blindly through good and evil report. And now when Mr. Goeschen and Lord Harting- ton feel constrained from one pomt of view to part company with him, and Messrs. Chamberlin and Trevylan froma widely different standpoint are threaten- ing to t him, I believe that the peo- ple of England ave mor united {n svm- pathy with hiny und snevort 6 him than they'have ever peen before. e that as itmay, and the question will soon be put to the test, there will be ent fo the proposition that the house of commons will be another and different body when it drops out of it. Since Disraeli left the house Gladstone has been a sort of heroie survival in it— the last of his race. In oflice or out of office he has so monopolizetl attention as to literally dwarf his_associates, col- leagues and opponents alike. There has cn nobody to ghare attention by his side, much 10ss to stand against him. He is & veritable Gulliver "among Lillipu- tians. Long since the ?uar_v became famillar to "liberals, “Who will lead them when Gludstone dies?'’ and the ef- forts to answer it hasonly served to show the measure of Hartington's incapacity, side by side with Chamberlain’s unfit- ness. ~ But a wore general question still forces itself upon a studentof par- liamont here, “Who will render "the house of commons intelléctually respect- able even when Gladstone is gone?” And there seems to-be no answer at all to this quostion. mation gion draw CHANGING COLORS. [ A Mountain foad Which Can Make Ttself Either White or Black. New York Jaurpal: A southern hunter thus describes a curious freak of nature, We had taken to the bed of the moun- tain stream that itt' tens of thousands of years had made the mighty canyon. It was filled with hnge bowlders, strewn and tumbled about in chaotic confusion, as if a stream of rocks had done the work, and wafer was altogether a scc- ondary considerstion. The rocks had been polished by the rush and spray of years, and to bound from one to another without ipvvin or falling required no little skill.

It is so natural to magnify little troubles instead of remembering that they are not worth fretting about. If at breakfast the bis. cuits are a little too yellow and the steak a trifle overdone, in almost every case no one will be troubled about it if you ure not. If the coffee is not just oxu(’llly right no one will notice it unless you call attention to it by some disparaging remark.
