It was purchased for $50. Five y ago an offer of £12,000 was made for the lot which was declined. Since that time it's value has more than quadrupled.

URI0US FIGHTING. asurer--Michael Sidney Two Sunday Cocking-mains -Details of the Battles. CSunday morning a number of sport- ing men who had been given the *q tip* were present at a short but inter ok fights. The pit was in a well-known down town sporting resort, the location of which must remain o secret to all but the initinted. The gen- tlemen present sat ranged about n a circle quietly di 3 ters until the r of ceremonies announced that everything was ready for a main between the steel-gaffed cocks. Perfect fluiut reigned, broken only by the sub- ued undertone conversation of the givers and takers of bets and the chink offinld and silver. . There were but two mains. The first was between two pyles, a red and silver, and was one of the hardest contested bat- tles ever fought in this city. The red was heayier than his opponent by two ounces. Both birds, however, were game and first- class kicke The first “‘fly” sent the larger of the two on his back. He man- aged to get up quickly, however, and pushed the fight and succceded,’ after Sowe cautious work, in dealing his an- tagonist two terrific blows, which sent him spinning across the pit. This sort of thing kept up for some time, until it ap- eared as though the fight would ave to be declared a “draw.” For while the heavy bird would every now and then get'in heayy and telling blows, the lighter one n-cruudcu with undaunted courage and really succeeded in “getting there, ” with more frequency, than his heavy antagonist. After fifteen minutes of game fighting the heavier Erleuu eded in coupling the lighter rd, who fell over on s back, unable to rospond, Considerable money changed hands on this battle, which lasted about twenty-five mmutes, The next pair of birds were a Domin- = ek, weight four pounds and six onnces, ~ and a brown red, scaling a short four and three. Despite the fact that the last bird had the disadvantage in weight, betting was six to one in his fayor, Ho prove the gamier bird of the two, exhibiting a marvellous fierceness and ability to make bold and telling dashes. The first fly gave the advantage to the brown red, who kicked his opponent with uch vigor as to send him half v wn‘y across the pit. The Dominick re- gained his feet without delay, and some sparring and ducking followed, wh gove neither an advantagoe, e Dom ~ nick flew the pit, but was promptly made to return the battle. After a fow moments more of fighting he in flew out. Once more his andler sent him back, The Dominick was thoroughly frightened, while the - little brown-red was as fierce as ever. B former bird, however, made a sort ~ of despairing jump at his plucky antago- ist, and sent the steel gall through Efi. The brown-red fell over and § almost instantly. A large sum of ~ money changed hands on this battle, - which, it is hardly necessary to say, was ~ a complete surprise to almost everybody. THE STALDT THEATRE, . Froduction of a Fine Melo-drama by BirchaPreiffer, The theatrical company at “the Stadt - theatre has done no more acceptable work than it fdid Sunday in ‘‘Steffen Langer ans Glogau.” Every member ‘was cast with due discrimination, and the offect of the. combination was most . pronounced upon the audience. ‘The ; y deals with an episode in the life of © Poter the Great. When he ascended the & throne, ho visited Holland in disguise, to enable him to build up the Rus- gian nayy and otherwise conduce to the welfare of his subjects, he took with him " to his countyy, on his return,a shipbuilder d & young man whow he commissioned protect the people from destructive mes. ‘Ihe shipbuilder is a miser and his daughter, the young fivemau is love. The master of Peter's castle Is love with her also, wnd his suiv is yored by the fathey, ‘The emperor’s castle is set on fire, presumably by the hofmeister, and the young man saves not only it from the destruction, but also a great deal of money which the coffe contained. Part of this money is after- w stolen by the hofmeister, whose villainy at length}is nnmasked, and the piece terminates’ with a most com- mendable climax. The 1dea, with another intrigue, from the plot of the piec which is intensely interesting and strongly developed. The honors of {he evening were borne by Mr Horsky. Indeed, this young gentieman was at iig best. Me hag n handsome stage presence, is of excellent form, and acts with an appreciation of the modern American stage. No better rend,tion of his character could have been desired. Mr. Horsky is already deservedly popu- lar with the patronsof this theater. | Bowers made a lovable and suec Klarschen.

Mr. Puls’ Wasilowiteh miude a erafty scoun- drel, but at times there was an uneven- ness in his performance because of a seeming uncertanty in his tones, The other members of the company rendered excellent support, The costuming of the piece was most noticeable, and though Mr. Baureis did not appear, his work was visible i the stage business of the others throughout the play AN INTERESTING CASE. A Mormon Lecturer Who Heavy Damages. United States ¥ Clark Braden menced suit against Leonard L. Luse, James A. Paddock, Oliver H. Smith, John N 1 Duyn, Horace Cole, Charles A. Meeker and James K. Corey The petition is a long one, the gist of which is as follow: Braden is and heen a lecturer on Mormonism travelling from state to state. In 1881 he mortgaged to one B. L. Astor the stereotype plates of a book contain- ing the Braden-l ly debate on Mor- monism, In December, 1884, Luse ap- peared before County Judge Corey, of Saline county, Neb., and swore out a warrant for iBraden's arrest on the ‘t:‘omul that had disposed of the property, which I xs been mortzaged, for §300. An officer then followed Braden to a Missouri town, where he was lecturing, and tried by threats to induce him to return, without a requisition, to Nebraska, or pay the $800. He refused so do this. In February, 1885 another warrant was sworn out for Braden’s arvest, requisition papers were procured, and he wa brought | to Saline county. Here he was indicted by the grand jury, but upon trinl discharged.

Judge John I Redick has fallen in love with the land of fruit and flowers and ex- peets to leave for southern California the Jast of June. He has practiced law in this city over twenty-five years and through his profession and real estate operations has made a large fortune. For many years he was considered the strongest jury lawyer in this state. He defended ” Governor Butler when im- peached and a better or stronger defense could not have been made.

Redick, well known as one of Omaha’s brightest Joung Inwyers, will practice law at Los Angeles, € A The well wishes of many warm friends accompany Judge Redick "and his family to the new home. A New Choral Society. For some time past a guict movemeut has been on foot to organize a new chorus in this city. The details of the scheme have been perfected, and were announced for the first time yosterday, ‘The choral society will be a very sclect affair, being composed of the best voices in the city. It will consist of thirty mem- rs, fifteen ladies and fifteen gentlemen. The latter will be picked from the old members of the defunct 4lee club, and will compose the finest bast and tenor voices in Omaha. Equal be taken, as regards v and social standing, in selecting y _members of the chorus. The will be, in fact, exclusiye, and the which is to be tuken in its organiza- tion is & guarantee that its work will be first-class, 1t is intended as a gilt edged substitute for the old Glee club and a sort of nucieus for large chorus, ete. It will undoubteely contribute much to musical activity in Omaha, This movement is entirely tinet from the one now on foot to organize a choral socicty of the members of the June fostival chorus, Police Points. Judge Stenberg’s business in the police court yestorday was of an unimport ant nwture. Seventeen men were ar- raigned for drunkenness. Fourteen of these were unable to pay a flue, and were released. The other three were fined. Two men, for lighting, were fined §5 and costs. Out of nine vagrants one was given ten days on bread and water and another five. One suspicions character was dis- charged, as he proved to be a Swede mu- sic teacher in this oity. Albert Johnson sud his best girl, Lily Dale, had been out diiying yesterday and had exceeded that hmit of speed pre- scribed by law. ‘This morning they pleaded guilty. Johnson was fined $10 and costs and the girl §5 and costs. William Cottan, Flora Adams, William Hagerty and Mary Wiggins were arrested for being inmates of & house of prostitu- tion. Hagerty was one of the jurymen in the Baliard murder case and was sur- rendered by Judge Stenberg to a deputy sheriff. ‘t'ne others were released, as their guilt was not at all_clearly proyen. “Cutoff Lake" is getting to be a favor- ite place for fishing and boating partie: The rowing association bas a large num- ber of boats available for such purposes Close at hand there are other boats for lire, at prices whicl are within compass of the pocket of the lowest sularied dry goods clerk.

Retarn of the Right Rev. James O'Connor from an Impors tant Meeting. Last woek there was held in St. Louis a very important meeting of the Catholio bishops of the province in which Ne- braska is. It was for the purpose of | selecting candidates for new fepiscoval sees which the in the w pid growth of Catholicism deinands and also to take into consideration the division of Kan two additional dioceses and Neb 1nto one more. 'The proceedings of the meetings are not for the public ear for obvious reasons. Three candidates for episcopal honors are named by ballot for each appointment—the *‘worthy, more worthy and most worthy” and those names, together with a synopsis of the discussion on their fitness for the posi- tion, their age tionalty, zeal in church work, ete., are sent to Rome and in due time_presented to the congregation of cardinals who select from among the sandidates named by the wmecting of hops and submit the same to the pope lis approval. Sometimes, but very ly, a candidate is selected at Rome who was not_named by the bishops, but most gencrally the “most worthy” re- coives the appointment. The cts reporter for the Beg learned in a pleasant talk with the Rt, Rev. Bishop O'Connor, who has just re turned from St. Louis, where the meeting of the bishops of this' provinee was held last week. “Itis not In'n)v:\lvh',” said the right reverend gentleman, “that the avproval of our work 1n_St. Louis will be pub- lished from Rome before tall. There will be new bishops appointed without doubt, because the growth of the church 1n this province demands it.”’ “Do you think Nebraska is large enongh for two dioceses?” “'Most certainly. At the lowest ealeuta- tion there are 50,000 Catholics in thisstate now, and L do not think there will be any doubt but another diocese will be estab- lished here. Whether Wyoming will be attached to one of the Kansas diocese should adivision be made, or to Nebraska, remains to be seen.” In ease of adivision of the diocese of Neb) where would be the other see- city for ery probably at Lincoln.” “How is your colony in Greeley county progressing, bishop?'? “Very tinoly. All the parcels of land, 1 believe, are sold, and everything is moving along well.” I intend to com- mence the erection of a school there in a short time,” Bishop O'Connor is looking exceec well after his eastern trip and hi: work during the early summer in this diocese, which is becoming really too 1 for one cpiscopal sce. Nothing goes toshow the “westward course of empire” more foreibly than_the growth ot Catholicism, especially in Nebraska and particularly to the young men, who have not very far to go back in memory to the time when the little church on Ninth street was the only Catholic church in the state. ingly rduons DISTRI COURT. Continuation of the Ballavd Case Yesterday Morning. The Ballard case occupied the attention of Judge Neville yesterday the prin- cipal feature being the testimony of Dr. Spaulding, of this city, who was ealled as an expert on the quest insanity. In auswer to the question of General O'Brien, counsel for the defense, as to whether a man attacked by the irresisti- ble desire for drink, such as Ballard e: perienced, and when laboving under the effects of the same, awrd did for days after his debauch , Dr. Spaulding an swered without hesitation that such a will vower and he was virtually ins: Dr. Spaulding’s answers were clear, concise and intelli- gent, and delivered in a manner which seemed to find more than usual attention from the jur) General O'Brien then read a hypothe- tieal question, intending to cover the cnso n} the accused. pied _ten munutes, but was objected to. Ir. Estelle rose to_state the ground of the objection, but Judge Neville inter- rupted him before he had made a clear statement, by remarking that if he (Mr, Estelle) desired to object to the question, he would sustain it, and the defense might take exception. ‘‘Note our exception,” said General O'Brien. “But,” exclaimed Mr. Birkett, ‘“are we not entitled to hear the und upon which the objection is basec “You just let me alone,” said the gen- eral, *'I've undertaken to save this man’s life, and I'm going to save it.” “Don’t get excited,” snid M who still maintamed a perpendict tion, with his surp toward the judge. Mr. Estelle then arose, and to avoid error, stated that the ground of his ob- jection was that the case supposed by the attorney for the defense, was neither that made out by the sta or the defense, “and 1t is Immaterial and irrelevant,” chimed Mr. Baldwin., The [case will be argued to-day.

Now that the new $25-fine social evil ordinance has become a law, large num- bers of the demi-monde are leaving town, or preparing to leave. Many have ulready gone to & more congenial climes, Among the number who determined to leave Omaha was Minme Warner, an in- mate of Annio Wilson’s European hotel on Douglass street.

Itis an old question, but one that holds the attention of not only ourown people, but of the whole world. While 1 think $288,000,000 entirely too much to be shut up in the national treas- ury, 1t is better there than scattered to the four winds of the earth. We will not ery for “revenne for tariff onl but for revenue and protection, That protection ysolutely necessary, can hardly be disputed, from' the exper- ience of our own state. Why do we have to wait so long and work so hard to induce factorics to locate here, if there1s such a monopoly in the manufacturing business. Some frec traders would lead usto think we arc bemg robbed by our factories. As a mat- ter_of fact we ull know our largest fuc- torics are only returning a small annual percentage on their investments. Nebras| has abundant material and unsurpassed advantages for manufactur- ing, and still we have no_ factories. We raise corn, why dou't we make glucose, Wool, why dont we manufacture We have raw hides, why don’t we make our boots, shoes and ther goods? Millions of tons of straw, and rags, but one paper factory is n support. Why don’t we manu facture olcomargariine, starch, pottery and w thousand othér things? answer is simple. T stern ctor are well lished in trade; ean m their goods cheaper, because they manu- facture more largely; sell more goods, and can sell ona smaller m: any new factory. It costs less propor- tionately to make 5,000 articles than 1,000, Thus it is, that while we raise the raw material We can’t competoe with ousto factories; nor can they with the forei; s cheap lubor is with itor. It s only through that we have thousands of fi and 8o long as our country increases in population at the present rate, new factovies wili need protection, not only from our own manu- Ficturers, | but trom “ruinous com- setitors'” with Britain and Germany. Jo we _want to reduce the wages of our sboring men to 10 or 25 cents per da, Can_any free thinker, even a non-protectionist, deny hat fi trade is a forerunner of starva- misery and want? I am man, consequently want all the and inmunities of one, but I trade as a threatencd curse of imn magnitude, muk- ing the rich ri the I|mm' peOrer Competition with chéap labor (Chinese) is one of the gravest and most aggray ated cases we have had to deal with as a nation. If 100,000 Chinese cun shake tho nation with their mite of competition, what, I ask, could the whole of Europe and Asia do? I will answer, 75 per cent of the manufactured goods used by the United States would come scross the water, Did you oyor ik thah ouary dales labori1 rivilogo ook upon f DEWEY & STONE FURNITURE One of the Best and Largest Stocks in the United States to Select From.

REFERENCE: Bank, Ke: £ Platte, Neb ymaha N Will pay customer Jolumbus State tional Bank, Omal: saves our border makes us a dol! poorer? You will ask how, supposing we get full value for our money. In order to make the statement strietly true, we will take a period of ten years to illus- o from. Suppos we buy yearly £100,000,000 worth~of mis- cellancous goods. In ten years the ageregate would be $1,000,000,000. This billion doilars would be variously distributed, but mostly in other nutions, and when ' the ten years had slipped away, our clothes would be worn out, our provisions eaten, our pottery broken, but our competitors’ would have our gold, old to the amount of $1,050,000,000. Bet- ter have it stowed away in the national treasury, or in the pockets even of our monopolists, than to have it in another hand safe from our dy monops, and fer still from our millions of laboring otwithstanding the heavy chima and duty on » have but few American potterics he Buglish ware are imported and sold as low as as our oods can possibly be sold, owing to the child labor in England. I will hardly re- mark that only for protection we would not have the shadow of a_ pottery for the manufacture of crocks, much less one for white goods. Another instance of our inability compete with cheap labo) It is well known we have of pure sulphur 1 Texas and other states. There are thousandsof tonsin Mexico and the West Indies, but not a pound of itis ever offered to the trade. Why? Where does the sulphur come from? Eyery pound of it comes from the island of Sicily, 4,000 miles away. Is it any wonder they can sell us sulphur cheaper than we ean dig it, when labor is worth from 8 to 10 cents per day.” In closing 1 will say to laboring wmen, think twice, think a thousand times hefos you v te for a free {r ree trade means worse than s| Think of support- ing your familics on twenty-five or fifty cents per day.
