TRIAL BY COURTMARTIAL. Two Very Different Views on an Interest- ing Army Matter, SUPPLYING COUNTY RECORDS, The Humane Society—The Charity Ball — The Council — Sporting Notes — School Funds — Other Local News, Trial By Courtmartial, The cirenlar letter of Colonel Henry to post eommanders pointing out the alarm- ing frequency of court-martial trials ana ting a remedy thercfor, has d considerable discassion in local army cir General Breck does not entirely believe in the sentiments ex pressed in Colonel Henry's letter, and thinks it draws a picture-which reflects discreditably upon the Department of the Platte. Wihile he does not disbelieve in moral suasion as u method of correcting the faults of erring soldiers, he still be lieves in the guard house as furnishing a good means of corrective punishment, Colonel Henry said yesterday: I still stick by the sentiments which I expressed in my letter to post commanders, 1 believe that soldiers oo often tried by court martinl, when a friendly talk and o bt of advice would be far better. A soldier as his better side--his better nature and why should it not be od toy If a man commits a slight oflense—such as going ofi without leave of absence or be coming intoxicated—he i un- ) present system thrown into the guard house and brought betore a court martial board. This hardens him and he is made worse instead of better. If post commanders would attend to these things themselves, instead of al- lowing their sergeants to do so thers would” be fewer men brought vefore the courtmartial board. You can easily sce that there is a screw loose somewherc when you remember that 78 per cent of the soldiers in the department of the Platte were tried last year by court- martial.” General Crook, when questioned about the matter, s “Lagree wilh Colonel Henry about ‘his matter. I think that our post commanders ought to _pay per- sonal attention to the cases of soldiers who require correction, and use a httle more moral suasion, instead of relyig wholly on the gnard house. Still there is no set rule bearing on this subject, which we could muake. A rule which might work in one case wouldn’t work in another." THE CHARITY BALL. Arrangements Perfected for Event of the Season. The charity ball committees met at the rooms'of the Omaha club Tuesday evening of complete arrangements for the charity ball to be given in the exposition build- ing on Friday evening, January 14. The iden of making it a calico ball has been entirely abandoned and it will be instead a full dress affuir, probably the most notable ty event of the winter. For the benefit of the ladies the committee has decided to canyass the entire floor of the exposition building and to construct a canopy from the carriage way at the Fif- teenth street entrance The building will be decorated by a committece com- posed lurgely of ofiicers from Fort Omaba. Supper will be served m the annex on a new plan_ that promises to be very satis! u,-lor’y. Tickets admitting o gentleman and ladies will bo $5 to spee- tators and ticipants alike.. Applica- tion for tickets can be made at Saxe’s drug store, Kuhn's drug store or to mem- bers of the board of managers who are Frank Colpe J. 8. Collins, J.T. Clarke, Jose jr., and N. Shelton.

It will, of course, require a yery long time in which to cateh up the missing link, but the pre- sumption is that it will be accomplished us s0oon as the force now available by the clerk will be able to bring it to a close, EDITORIAL PASSES, How the Union Pacific Furnishes Free 1tides to 400 Editors. Among the onerous duties which Iall to the lot of Chief Clerk Miner in the pas- senger dopartment of the Union Pacifio to perform, is the filling out of editorial passes, The editors of about four hundred papers scattered through Ne- braska, Colorado, Kansas, Wyoming and other territory adjacent to the lines of the Union Paafic receive these passes. Some of them are made out aupually others semi-annually, others quarterly. 1t is no easy task to attend to the detal of this job and sce to it that no passes ssued to persons who ougit not to hold the same. Asa general thing the ¢ country weeklies, as weli of the larger allowed the priv ilege of free t tation, especially if such papers sre published in towns on or near the lines of the road.

It s astonishing to note the “'gall,” 1o use a slangy but expressive word, which is displayed in some of the lettersreceived, asking for editorial favors, Itnot infrequently happens that letters are reccived from moen who say that they contempiate starting a weekly paper and_desire to secure n pass over the Union Pacific on the strength of their intentions. Other reasons, H‘uquu ridicu lous, are frequently offered by the seekers after editorial favors, Such requests are promptly pitched into the waste basket.

Sullivan combination is in the city He is making arrangements to have his combination appear here next Tuesday Jannary 11, at the exposition ann A splendid programme of sport has been provided, Duncan A, Me Donald, the well known pugilist, is with the tompany. John P, Clow, the pugilist is in the city, haying returned from his suceessful His many friends here ging him to make his home i Omuh and it is mot at all improbable t he will do so. He is think ing seriously of opening a gym- nasium and ~ club room here, . in connection with a school for boxing.

'Lhe_chances are that with a track greatly improved both men will lower the record. At any rate the race will be a good one and well worth witnessing. SCHOOL evening eastern tour. UNDS.

When that Pinker- ton pistol went off at Fort nd Hal- sted st and Killed poor Terence Beg. ley, nobody supposes the thing was pointed at anybody.

A third time, also, the gun neglected to go off, and, thinking t the thiet’s time hadn’t come yet, he put his gun in his pocket and aitended to his nose. When he had cleaned up he went over to the market, set up a bourd, and, standing off a little distance, blazed away.

The flesh between l‘u' thumb and the first finger was torn considerably, but that was better than having a lot of bullet holes in his body. It was after that that Harrigan killed a noted coun- terfeiter in the southern part of St. Louis, He was found scereted in a house, and when the oflicers surrounded it_he made a break for liberty.
