REERENG WITH NASTINESS The Oapital Oity Preparing For an Epi- demic With Accumulated Filth, CLEANING ORDERS DISOBEYED, City Officials Abont to Receive Their Pay After Waiting Three Months— Griffith’'s Insurance Must Be Pald. [FROM THE BER'E LINCOLN BUNRAT.] Notwithstanding the fact that the police have issued some seven hundred warn- ings to people to clean up their prem- ises, the city remains in a wretchedly filthy condition, and in these balmy June days, with 95 a fair shade test, the alleys and pl where gutters ought to be, in the principal part of the fairly reck with the steaming rotten rubbish th lies undisturbed at the very doors of prominent citizens and business men. What the police will have to do will be to i=sue seventy times seven hundred warn- ings and then go to work themselves and do the cleaning, Said a traveling man the other evening, as he sat in the ghade at one of the hotels, and dodged the perfumed breezes that arose from P. gtrect: “Lincoln is the dirtiest town that 1 have seen, and it gets worse and worse,” And his testimony is only one of many, for the city officials recognize the fact that the accumulated filth is something surprising. Admitting that the city is hard up financially . and finds it difficult to do the work, there ought to be pride enough n the capita] cily of Nebraska among ndividual property owners to exhibit itself and not leave a harvest for doctors. It looks as though there was method in the state undertakers' convention meeting with us. PAY DAY AT HAND, For some three or four months the ci has found it impossible to pay the polic and laborers for the city, owing to the exhaustion of the fund that can be used under the levy, and the result has been of much inconvenience to those who conld not wait and had to dispose of tl time to make arrangements to meet their dual expenses. Brighter days have wver, for the other ¢ the \s swelled by the receipt of son seventeen hundred dollars, which will be paid out as soon as the city treasurer can attend to the disbursement of the funds, DECISION IN LIFE INSURANCE At the present term of the district court the case to recover the insurance moncy on the life of Griflith, who was shot at the state house in the great panorama of the treasury robbery, was argued and submitted.” Mr. Griggs, who appeared nce company, clain t his life while in the com- ion of a crime, and consequently for- feited all glaim on the company. = 'T'he defense a¥gued that as two ju smd Griflich was committing no erime, that the argument was of no force. Y the judge rendered his verdict the company with judgment for ¢ LITTLE THING In police court yesterday a long row of chairs were filled with the pickings of the night before, and as they faced the j\uli:u their appearance carried the proof of the nllegations that they were up as plamn drunks. Oncof them, an elderly man with every appearance of being a farmer, who had allowed the elephant to get the better of him, was much worried and hesitated and gave two different names for himself and both ficticious. When the fine and costs were assessed he de- parted with an oflicer to one of the banks, drew the cash on his check with which to liquidate his indebtedness to the state and departed homeward on the noon train. ‘The police court also handled a case in which a man named Pendleton, whose carcer hag been in the walks of the his- tronic art, was arrested for a revolting crime His accuser swore one way and the prisoner the other, and the judge dis- m'ssed the case at plaintiff’s cost. This enraged the plaintift and he went out on the street and pumeled the chap he failed to convict. The result was $16 and costs. Nebraska City, whicn, to all practical rurposofi, is situated in some remote por- ion of Missouri in so far ns-communica- tion with this city goes, will be united to Lincoln by telephonein a few days, the posts between the two points being all planted. If some of the prisoners in police court would enter the plea that they wore in- toxicated by floating garbage from some of the alleys of the city, they would have good and suflicient grounds for a defense.

New York Mail and Express: A few years ago Modjeska was not our Mod- jeska. She had made a great reputation on the Pacifie coast, and had played a long and brilliant engagement in New York, but she was not known widely in the United States or in England, and her English was as yet a little shaky on its legs, as it were, One hot August morn- ing. as the tender steamed off to the big ocean steamer that lay out in the Mersey, carrying out the passengers, everybody's attention was attracted to a couple who sat apart from the rest. The man was Count Bozenta—-a gentleman, a man of culture and esprit, and totally different from the conyentional *‘prima donna's husband.” The woman was Modjeska. The sun was intense, the tender an evil and malodorous thing, the passengers for the most part cross and overcome with that mental and physical flatness that comes after a holiday spent and money gone and the prospoct of seven days’ tossing at sea. But nothing could aflect Modjeska’s charming pee sonality. Before that two hours’ dre i Ve 8 over, « A 1 and dog was her friend And when she float: cefal the companion ladder over the other woman waddled or hoppe the captain, in his cheery way, her, and she smiled softly back at him as Camille does at Armand, i easy too see that the eaptain was ‘goner," like ybody else. Madame did not wait to inspect or be inspected, but retired at once to her stateroom. But at dinner she appeared and was promptly assigned to the post of honor at the captain's table. She did not talk much, but she smiled, and rybody surrendered immediately o smile. Sometimes she laughed out- right, for at the same table sat Hermann, the magician, and nothing amused him more than to play off’ his magie before tive audience at 2 of his tricks it without the table wit- Dbly true that iters up arming would the seleet and app the captamn’s tabl is not quite saf aflidavits of at | nesses—but it is unquestion at dinner he would tos and down in a and suddenly nish in thin again in the pe tail pockets, much to that oflicer’s cha- grin and amazement; also that, when the cay cont- man next the mg bout vassing the an was surly slic lemon, Hern calmly drew forth from the victim’ all the sliced lemon he wanted, while the people at the table, ineluding Mme, Modje went off into spasms of laughter at the alternately sheepish and furiously enraged passenger.

Only once was madame ruflled. She recited a scene from Phedre, and had one of her trunks out of the hold to get an appropriate cos- tume.

Last night late I emerged from a newspaper office with a solid, beneficent,phylosophi- cal man, whose name you would honor, were [ to write it. We re accosted by an aged, white bearded old fellow, who said, in a tone of piteously blunt honesty “Gentlemen, will you please give me seven cents. I have only three, and I want to buy a good, square drink of y.'' The appeal touched my friend. d a thousand beggars ask money of me for drink,” he said, gazing in open admiration at the solicitor, ‘‘but you're the first one that told what he actually intended to do with the money.

So we dogged him a block or so, until he entered a refresh- ment place. But it wasn’'t a grogery. It was a cheap eating saloon. Hein- vested his ten cents in a plate of pork ana beans, and ate the food with a relish that demonstrated his hunger. . ““This sober man was ingenious enough to pretend an alcoholic appetite in order to gratify his normal one,” I said, ‘‘and be ought to be—" ‘*He should to by kicked from here to Jerico,” hotly interrupted my com- vanion, “for he’s a cheat, a fraud, a con- fidence operator, and ‘pon my soul I ought to have nim arrested.” A TYPICAL BOWERY TOUGH At the wharf where steamboats from Connecticut land their rural passengors, aw o typical lhnver{ tough handing smalil circulars. He was loati to give one to me, but was cx one into the hands of every maunifest countryman who disembarked. The document was a glowing description of a beer garden, where the glories of architecture, the mellifluousness of the music, the mightiness of the crowds, the beauties of the wickedness, and the posi- tive folly of quitting town without visit- ing this wondrous resort, were set forth in corruseating terms. It was declarea that this was the one great sight of the metropolis. I knew the establishment by reputation as one of the numerous small and repulsive dens of the Bower; and that evening I went there to obse: the demeanor of the strangers. A fa in his outing clothes entered soon me. His blank astonishment on g around the premises was repaid me for the trouble I had taken. What he saw was a room behind an ordinary bar, not more than twenty-fiye feet by forty in size, without adornment enough to hide the strenks where a partition had been removed, with the promise of rare plants and folinge v ed only by eight stunted shrabs in tubs, with a hddler and a pian- ist making apology for the lauded harmonies of a big orchestra, and the eful to thrust most ulsive imaginable ' lot _of waitresses to represent the feminine lov, described in the circular.

He pauses a moment at one of the windows, sces a batsman make a good strike, waits to observe if the youth 1sgomg to get a “home run’ outof it, then witnesses another sky-seraper, and s0 is led on to stand long as ten min- utes at a time watching the gam T governor delighted the toboggan ing the winter by riding down their new slide on the night 1t was opened, and he 80 enjoyed the sport that he went agein. He also made a trip to Saratoga to see how the sport was managed there. The governor has a great fondness for youth of no matter how tender an age, and it is acurious sight, as he walksalong the street to and from his home, to see that, while men of lel‘l and consequence bow re- spectfully and appear constrained in his presence, urchins in skirts a 1 gumins run up to him and touch his hand, Shouting, *How do you do, governor,” as if they were on' the best of terms in world with the chief magistrate of five million of persons. FOOLS WITH LOOSE TONG The head bartender in a saloon lay back in a barber’ iscussed the uppermost topi rber was exhausting his s sources of the shop upon his e hair and moustache. I know it seems queer to some folks," the bartender said, “that Alderman Jachneshould have such a blooming idiot as to give away Taoket to Polios Taapactor Byrnes: but i) @ mun who stands behind the bar and studies human nature it doesn't seem strange at all. Nine men out of ten, whenever they think they have done a very wise or very foolish thing, go around aching till they have told somebody of it. You ought to hear the things we have to listen to behind the bar from men we never seen before.

Barkeepers don't often repeat tiese yarns, and so, I sup- pose, Jaehne’s didn't get ont that way." BURIAL OF A JERSEY LOBBYIST. The people o the village of Someryille, N. J., thirty mles from New ¥ork, hav just followed tethe church-yard the re- mains of a man who was to them an honored and r&spected fellow-citizen and to the outside vorld was one of the most notorious, surcessful and audacious corruptionists iv the country. In the grave with hin they laid away secrets that, told, woull send scores of public men to state prson and end the carcers of many more. The dead man's nanme was Uu‘mr Baralow, and he was a thin withered, one+yed, sixty year ol individoal, witi tures that exactly caricatured thse of the fox. FKor a quarter of a cenury he had been at Tren- ton, the state cavital, as a_chief lobbyist nia railroad, and in Somerville a thrving druggist, and col lector of internal revenue. Since about 1860, when he fitst went to Trenton to oppose a bill that the Central railroad of ' wis trying to pass, he had flvre(rom a quarter to a half dolars in bribing public s. and hs power in matters of tion, wherever railroad interests were involved, had been most of the time as absolute as that of a dictator. His fight against the Central railvoad was so successtul that the managers hired him them the next year and started him on his career as a ‘‘legisiative agent.”” In 1869 the Pennsylvana railroad” took possession of the Camden and Amboy i er and hired tive part of the property, these being the days when ] ¢ ew Jersey was known as thostate of Camden and Amboy. He contiaued in the service up to the time of hus death, winning fame and fortune at it. His great fight was over the ‘“‘Wet Basin” bill, under wh the Pennsylvania secured ground Hor their immense freight stations at Jersey City. The investiga- tion which follswed” the passage of his i ent one legislator to state prison, K a doxen more in abject terror, passage of time and ‘the statute ations made them secure. One of these for whom an indictment actually drawn, though s fore presentation, afterw governor, and is still a politics ader, not only in the state but in the nation, The greatest of all Barcalow’s fight: the long struggle over the national rai road scheme, came next. This was an attempt to break *the monopoly of the right of carrying p rs and freight across New Jersey the Pennsy vania held. So b this mono- poly that the counrts 1ssued injunctions inst roads &ctually built that at- temped to do anything but a local bus ness within the state, ~ Year after capitalists representing millions of “dol- lars, spent thei ¢ lavishly in trying to get a charter for a rival route. As high as $50,000 was paid for avote during this fight, millions of capital being ranged on each side. Barcalow at Trenton was a qui served and utterly unfathomable When interest, involving millions; were at stake, he would strollaround as calm and unconcerned as. when the bill w some petty littlo scheme of no import- ance at ail. In victory or defeat his face was always the same and his slow, deliberate step and unconcerned de- meanor never hastened or changed. Cor- ruption was not his only weapon. He had a great nead for figures and a plaus- ible tongue and a mastery of logic. Men who were for sule he bought 1ike cattle. Men he believed to be honest he ap- proached with arguments. He was as successful with one class as with the other. In half an hour he could convince any unbiased man of ordinary intel gence that three white cats and one ma tese cat were scven black horses. He was scrupuiously careful of his facts in dealing with honest men, and made it his boast that he was never caught in a lie. He not only controlled legislatures where railroad matters were concerned, but he elected them. His strongest hold upon power was the way in which he manipu- ated nominating conventions of both parties to see that only men whom he could mfluence were nominated. At his home in Somerville, Barcalow s known and admired as an upright zen, an enterpr 1ess man, and a free giver to church and charity. Only one trait of his public life accom- panied him in his home career—a pitiless, merciless eruclty and persistence in seck- ing revenge on an enemy. This was the sole ult his neighbors admit in him, and if any whispers reached them of the nature of the business that took him to Newton every wintert, they never al- lowed_their knowledgu to decrcase the sincerity of the estcem in which they held him, or lessen his_influence among them. He was a republican in Yrivnto life, and as much of a one in public lLife as the nature of his business would ad- mit. As such he was appointed by Lin- coln as internal revenue collector, and held the place until Cleveland came in. His last greatfight was this year to pre- vent the Baltimore & Ohio from crossing the state to a New York terminus on Saten Island. He won it, passing the bill over the governor's veto. He then declared that this should be fus last win- ter at Trenton.

A True and Romantic Story of Fare Away Wyoming. TVritten for the Omaha Bee by Will Visscher, The gigantic trunk of a spreading cot- tonwood, on the grass-clad banks of one of Wyoming's beautiful mountain streams marks the scene of a tragoedy, the earliest germ of which was nourished on the play-ground and by the flreside of & New Hampshire homestead. Old Simon W in throp had received the broad acres of his New England home from a long line of ancestors, whicii found its source in the Winthrop of the Mayflower. Lor the lirst time since the founding of the family, no stalwart son had appeared to bear the honors and perpetuate the name of the house of Winthrop. But Rose, the only child and daughter, was a vision of grace and loveliness, and when the old man looked upon her fair face and marked the foveliness of her mind as well as person, he forgot that with himself the name of Wintarop, so long known and honored in the land, would die. Two nephews resided under the old man's roof, both sisters’ sons, Russell Follett and Clarence Urquhart, and were Rose’s playmates from her earliest child- hood. Together they built play-houses and antieipated the future seencs of man and womanhood. Together they roamed the New England forests, or climbed the rugged Now England hills, Together they played or worked, read or thought, Inughed or taiked. Their joys and sorrows, pleasures and pains were mutually shared, but if the two boys each wove a chaplet of forest leaves and flowers to grace Rose's bright head, that of Clarence was treasured long after the offering of Russell was for- gotten. When the boys tendered th assistance to the littie maiden over rough and broken ways, or up a rugged steep, the hand of Rose lingered longest in that of Clarence. When some childish sorrow dimmed the beautiful eyes of the little girl and choked her sweet voice, only the hand of Clarence could wipe away the tear, and his loved accents bring back tne smiie of happiness to her lips. And so it was, as childhood merged into vouth, and youth blended into a lovely maidenhood, to Clarence her heart turned as its lord by nature's right divine, and in his smile alone was she happy. The full measure of her aftec- tion W reciprocated, and to Clarence the fair New England Rose was as the blossom of hope's ition. But what of Russell? He, too, loved his cousin with all the ardor and strength of a proud and passionate nature. In that proud and passionate nature, deep planted. were villainous germs, and the daily sight of his rival's ll:rnmgss devel- oped them into a tree of evil, whose branches were yot to bear deadly truit, He concewved and matured o cunning and mahgnant scheme, By his machi tions the lovers were estranged, and each belic b false, finally sep- arated. ~Clarence strove to forget the fair face of his one love amid other scenes and in new lands. Rose drooped in the old homestead, a blossom with the canker at its heart. Russell was all tenderness and devo- tion. Every day brought to Rose some new evidence of his care and thought for her. No sign came from Clarence, The inmates of the old homestead knew not where the wanderer was. At the ciose of two weary years Mr. Winthrop died, and with s latest breath requested Rose, 1f Clarence eame not by the end of another year, to give her hand to Russell. The year E: sed, and the flower of the house- hold became Russell’s wife. Butit was a faded flower and a listless wife he had won. Rose faded day by day, and four years after the disappearance of ( Dee a change of scene was pronounced im- perative by the old family physician. In the early summer, therefore, Russell bore his wife, so deatly loved, so foully won, toward the setting sun, in the vain, fond hope , that the western breezos would bring the hue of health to a check paled bq the agonies of a broken heart. At Cheyenne, Wyoming's “magic city,’’ a short stay was made, and an excursion to a cattle round-up. then in progress, was arranged. Across the springing sod of the upland Frni ies, over the pine-clad hill-tops, and through the breezy canyons, the lowest of which was six thousand feet above the level of the sea, the party passed. On the morning of the thirc. duy the range riders were in sight, as they rapidly and deftly circled the half wild herds toward n common centre, and near the middle of the afternoon the visitors rode upon the rodero ground, and gazed with wonder upon the animated scene. Far and near were clouds of dust, through which gleamed the wide horns and rang the hard hoofs of the driven cattle. Pressing close upon the traces of thes various hurrying bunches were the cowboys, upon their small but lithe steeds, with' picturesque sombreros and ornamented chappararas, while quirt answered qurt and spur rang to spur. Upon an elevation 1n the centre of the thronging field stood the foreman, mar- shaling the, different bands into’ their proper positions as they arrived upon the rrounds. It was proposod that the party join the foreman on his elovated posi- tion, from which a fine view of the field could be obrained. As the party crossed & dushing mountain stream, with gra banks, Rose begged to be allowed to r main beneath the shade of the magnifi- cent cottonwood whose spreading branches over-shadowed the crossing. Accordingly she was assisted to dis- mount and was comfortably placed by ber husband, who then rode on to wit- ness the novel tle operations.

As his fect struck the sward, his eyes encountored those’ of Rose. Like o galvanio shock came the recognition. Through the sun tan, the heavy beard, the strange cos- tunie, Rose knew the lost lover of her days of happiness, and he saw before him the one woman on earth for him. In an instant, time, space and estrangement were as naught, and they were clasped in cach other's arms.

The murderer approached, and put forth hie reekin hand to draw his wife from the corpse o his victim, Rose sprang to her feet. The fatal pistol still smoked in the assassin's rrasp. Springing upon him she wrenched hw weapon from his hand, and with the ory of “Clarence, I come,” pressed the muzzle to her heart and fired, falling dead across the corpse of him she love better than life, Anawful silence reigned for a moment, then another sharp report rang out, and when a ‘u\rly of cowbo; attracted by the firing, dashed up, Russell Follett, too, s stretched upon the tlood-soaked sward, with a ragged hole in his temple, where death | .f ntered, and the sl{ pistol in his stiffon- 1 su\mklu{: ing grasp.
