HIBBARD WILL NOT RESIGN The Stock Rate Troublp—A Myster- fous -Disappearance—The Cold Wave — City News in General, The Gnn Club Banquet, Last might, the second annual banquet of the Omaha Gun club took place at the Millard hotel. Tt was held in the newly decorated and beautified dining hall, which was illumined with scores of bril Liant lights The opening set for 9 o'clock, and at that time nearly all of the mem bers and the invited guests had assembled in the parlors, A few minutes of agreeable greetings and conversation was Wi indulged, and then, at a given signal, the guests formed in line, and under the escort of Messrs. T, H. Cotter, Geerge E. Kay, and G. F. Bracker, filed into the banquet room. But a few minutes sufliced to seat the guests, and when this was accom. plished, the tables ranged in a quadrilateral, were surrounded by as genial, gentlemanly and imposing & board in Omaha. The head toward the west, and in the middle sat Jeft W. Bedford, president of the club. On his right sat B. E, B Kennedy, of the old Om. Sportsman’s elub. while his left was sustafned by Dr, J. H. Peubody, who, though a resident of these pa v aquarter of a cen tury, yet lacks the distinction of what, in stercotyped parlance, is denominated an old setiler. On cither side of these gen tlemen ranged other old sportsmen, in- wrsed with representatives of the ald, World, Br the other extremity of the and Republican, At ble sat G eral orge S, Smith, vice president of the olub, wported by C. B, Lane, the ) and treasurcr, and George one of the mem bers of ~ the board of manngers, as also one of the most encrgetic and usefnl members of the association. In the mid- dle of the side tables sat the captain of each of the two sides which lately in dulged in the hunt, the vanquished in which were taxed with the responsi- bility of furnishin he feast, at which all bad -gathered. The captdin on the right was Dr. H. A. Worley, whose side consisted _of the following huntsmen ohn K. Stout, F. S. I H ze H. B Kenned mith, H. Simons, / J. B. Byans, Sam Usher, P. 1 8 Mills and J. W. Holmes, on the. lefu was J. J. Hardin, whese subordinates _comprised the following: Jo Petty, J. A. Penrose, C. B. Lane, F. Brucker, W. H. 8. Hughes, Enge Finger, Fred' Nye, Ed. Leeder, Ichen, John Field, Z. T. Spriggs, Jet Bedford and W. E. Scott. The captain_and members first men- tioned were victorious, making a total > of 1,468 points, while Captain Har- side made 1,433, thus losing the con- test by but thirty-five points. The leader in the shooting was General G. S. Smith, who made® total of 822 points, and this factseemed to give as much pleasure to the other competitors as it did to the g eral himself., Besides these members, the invited guests were B. E. B. Kennedy, Dr. J. H. Peabo S. B. Hathaway, O HL U Brigzs, R, N Walke! 0. H, Gordon, C. William, J H. Griflin, W. 8. Wing, Henry Gris diech, John Hoyle, C. M. Terrell, J. J. Butns, Walter Pheips, D. K.

Woodbridge, Wo Ammlfiz these were n few old sportsmen such ns Messrs, Withnell, Kennedy, Dr. Peabody, Hathaway, Parmalee, General Smith, Brucker, Mils and Hoey. The contrast between these and the other sportsmen, young, handsome and ener- getic, vias most striking. pt possibly in the case of Parmalee, who, though scarcely beyond his majority, is yet old ip tho ranks of the hunters. A more benutiful spread had never been laid in Omaha. The inner edge of the table was garmshed with water-cress worked into graceful curyes and designs and relieved at inter- vals with fresh and fragrant cut roses of various and beautitul types. angle stood a capacious bowl, filled with a nectar not too fine for the bon hommes who delighted_in the inspiration which they found in its depths.

An Effort Made to Pateh Up the Differ- | 1 ences—-Other Lail Notes. | Superintendent Hughes, of the lowa division of the Chicago & Northwestern, from Boone, Ia, and J. M. Alworth, freight agent of the same road at Coun- cil Bluffs, were at the stock yards yester day. The Northwestern and Burlington people are very much aroused over the action of the Rock Island in hauling their stock at the porportionate rate of the through charges. There scemsto be a general impression that there will not be a war on rates between the roads, based o the supposition that the commissioner would not countenance the action of the Rock Island, and that the road would not find it to' its advan to continue in an aggressive attitude against the other roads. Just t this time, too, a ate war would be a very unfortunate iir for Omaha. The new packing houses that will be ready for business he within a few weeks will ereate a demand for all of the live stock that can be bronght to Omuaha. If the war is commenced the Nevthwestern will carry into execution their threat that they will restore local rates on stock shipped from Nebraska points to Omaha. This would effectually shut off all live stock from entering the city over the C| \go & Northwestern, il will also lose to the city the stock that will naturally go over' the other roads to Chicago on account of the cut rates. NOTES AND PERSONALS. J. M. Johnson of Chicago, assistant general freight agent of the Rock Island, was in the city yesterday. His visit doubtless had some connection with the threatened rate trouble, although he was as mum ) oysier on the subject, C. W.

He held that & creature could be greater than its cr and that the central committe, was created by the counly convention, had no power to undo the work ot the con vention He claimed that any ticket which the central committee would place in the field would be 1llegal and bogus if it differed in any manner from the ticket chosen by the county conven- | Monda tfon. “Tuesd After a lengthy and_heated discussion | Wednatday the motion to reconsider the vote drop- l"xl,',’f\: ay. ping Mr. Hibbard’s name from the ticket | Sitords was ¢ .

A good joke is being told at the expense of “Jedge’ Cooley, the well known law- yer and pol n of this city. The Judge was quite recently in attendance upon a politiczl mass meeting which was being held in a place not a thousand miles from Omaha. He was cocked and primed for one of his eloquent speeches advocating the cause of Church Howe, The meeting vrogressed satisfactorily, and a number “of good specches were made. Only one circumstance marred the serenity of the occasion, Some lusty lunged youth in the rear of the audience “was continually bawl- mg out ‘Judge Cooley! “Let's hear from Judge Cooley!' A speech from Judge Cooley! ete. He kept this up until finally '.fm jndge was seen to rise from his s He sham- bled slowly up to the platform, his head bowed i deep thought, one hand thrust under his Prince Albert, the other co- quetting beneath his left coattail, He solemnly mounted the platform, and pro- i to electrify his hearers with a of Websterian periods. Still the fellow in the rear of the room continued to call loudly for “Judge Cooley.” nally the chairman arose and address- ing himself to the disturber said: I hope that you'll keep still for a few moments. Don't you know that this is Mr. Cooley who is now speaking? “Naw,"” said the fellow in a daized sort of a way, “that can't be Judge Cooley, why, blast 1t, that's the d fool that hired me to holler!” The First Promenade Concert, The musical event of next week will be the appearance at the first promenade concert at the Exposition building of Signora Linda Brambilla and her excel- lent company. Mr. Franko, who is man- aging this series of concerts, has secured this company at an enormous expense for the initiul number of the concerts,and he should be encouraged in a liberal man- ner by the music-loving people of Omaha. The success of those coneerts will in & great measure decide whether Mr. Franko will continue his residence and work in Omaha. Signoru Brambilla will be supported by the following dis- linuulshm, artists: Signora Linda n- billa, prima donna soprano, Miss Eva May' Wycoff, contralto, Mr. Joseph Hr. ooseph Hirschbach, tenor, Mr, Wil- liam Moebius, violinist, Miss Marquerite Louise Harns, pianist.

I wish to state through your columns that the above 1s false, and that the telegram was sent by thuse opposed to him, and was not in any manner authorized either by him or by any K. of L. Dr. Hatton was interv d yesterday by a committee of the K. of L. {of which committee I, myself, was one and tie doctor insured us in unmistaka- ble terms that he had withdrawn from the race. 1 send you herewith a copy of the interyiew, at length. You can append it hereto if vou desire. A called meeting was held by the two assemblies of the K. of L. of Red Oak last night, and the evidence of his withdrawal in substan- tial and unmistakable form for the first time laid before them. The assemblies in joint convention assembled with but one dissenting vote, and that was a democratic editor and declared in favor of renominating him—on a straight K. of L. candidacy, relying on his past life of un- swerving deyotion to the principles as held by the K. of L., to cause him to accept the election on the above issus. All the log assemblies within reach of Red Oak and Atlantic have been scen, and a meeting of the coagressional com- mittee has been called to meet at Atlantic on Tuesday next, when, it is known, he will be unanimously nominated as a candidate for the K. of L. And the fight will be by them conducted on alnon par- tizan basis, their candidate being utterly free from party afliliations of an kind. Thais is the basis upon which we found our race, discountenancing all the f; malignwents that have been circulat about the man while he was so ne: death's door upon a sick bed and unable to refute them.
