Sporting Notes—Talks With Travel- lers—A Girl Drowned—Suffering on the Bottoms—\ Serious Charge ~Other Local, Burglars Work. Mr. J. H. Evans, of the City Steam laun- dry, on entering his office yesterday morning discovered a queer state of affairs, His safe door was blown open, and the papers and documents which he had left locked up the day before were scattered over the floor. A small hole had been bored through the door, and the pieces of the broken combination lock told the tale, The place had been bur- glarized. It was found that about one hun- drea and fifty dollars in ecash had been taken, together with about seventy-five dol- Iars in cliccks, Payment on the latter has been stoy) o police were notified and several officers Investigated the scene of the burgiary. It found that the cracksmen had entered through the back dog and had then, by means of a “jimmy,” pried open a middle door leading into the offic The work which done on the eafe shows that the fellows were expert at their business, An empioy® of the who slept upstairs, says tiat he wi f strange noise after midnig that it was the cracking of paid no attention to it VIOTIMS OF THE BLASTS, uL Supposing the steam pipes How Many of Them Live on the River Bank in Omaha. The long-continucd cold weather which s for weeks prevailed in Omaha, bas been the cause of suffering and want to many of the poorer people of the city. 1t found them scantily supplied with clothing, fuel or means to purchase either to enablo them to pass the winter without experiencing the misery which generally results from lack of thrift, or misfortune. Several hundred fam- ilies of this kind are now being supplied ‘with necessaries by Poor Superintendent Mahoney, at the cxpense of the county. ' Many of these families are squatters upon the bottoms. They live i shanties, of tho flimsicst nafure, generally built by themselves, and_patched with avery Kkind of contrivance to keep away the cold. Into these are huddled fawmilies sometinies containing ns many as ten people. They areall poorly clad,” and some of them are prone upon a_ bed of sickness. They seldom stir out except to snateh a_ piece of woorl or coal from a scanty pile to le coals ‘which give w abode. Yesterday a I called to the bottoms and found a case of vretehedne i eldom expericneed, A family of s ng in a hole in the ground, of about eight feet square. To enter it one lad to make a descent which jeopard- jzed his neck. The hole was covered with acanvas top. Inthe middle was astove, which monopolized the greater part of tho room, the existenceof which would not have been noticed had it not been for the f light which the coal emitted. The pl; dark and noisome. By means of a match the reporter discovered a bundle of rags at wone_end of the hole, and buried tn these was a woman, immovably sick, with a newly boirn infant by her side. * She had been ill for three weeks and in that time had not been able to raise from her rags, To aggravate her misery she had but a few hours before sent her eldest daughter to che river to get a bucket of water. Lhe child did not return. She fell into the stream, the current carried her nnder the ice, never perhaps to be found azain, This accident filled to overflowing 4he poor woman's anguish so mueh so the reporter was compelled to withdraw from the miserable place. SERIOUS CHAKGES, op alive rmth to reporter Countained in a Warrant for the Arrest of John Smith. John Smith is the very plain and unostenta- tious name of an individual on Saunders street who runs a candy and notion store next to the Herrold block. It is alleged that he has Dbeen taking unwarranted liber- tles with little girls who haye come to his store to buy candy, ete. Yesterday an l\nkri father of one ‘of the victims of Smith’slustful conduct appeared in the police court and swore out a warrant for tne arrest of that individual. ‘The father's name is Dennis Lane and his little daughter’s name is Ellen Mary Lane. BIOCYCLE “NOTES. Eck Leaves for Denver—Bullock's Great Work, T. W. Eck left vesterday morning with his trainer and backer, Carlisle, for Denver, ‘where this week he will ehgage in a couple of races. He will return in time to go into training for his race with Bullock, two weeks hen ce. Thelatter is coming to the front in wonder- ful shape and promises to develop into a star. e Is already atle to down men who claiu to be first class professionals. Ilis friends claim that in his 100-mile race with Eck ne will notonly give that man a hard run, but stands a good chance of beating him. 1o is training daily on the exposition building track, 18 working hard to keep himself In condition and is altogether in excellent trim, Yesterday mummg he took & practice spin of twunt{ miles about the track, ac- complishing this distance in exactly one Tour, four minutes and thirty seconds, or six seconds better time than that made by Prince and Eck on Saturday night lor onemile more than the same distance. ‘This, too, was done ‘without any one to coach him or set the pace for him. It now develops that through a mistake in scoring Prince and Eck on Saturday night ran 21 miles or 215 laps instead of 20 mile they ought to have done. The time u for” this distance was one hour, minutes and twenty-six seconds, would make the time ‘made for the 20-mlies one hour, ~oue minute and thiry seconds, The mi was nos discovered until too late—after the referee had given his decision. As to all ap- pearances the stipulated time of one hour and three minutes had not been made, the refereo ordered an equal division of the gate re- ceipts and decided that the stakes of $00 a side wust be returned to each man, TALKS W i'l‘ll Tli:\\' ELERS, Short Interviews Gathered Hotel Rotundas, Morrisey, Altoona, Pa.—'The boom bas struck Council Bluffs does not rise in the least, The only thing 1 wumlcr atis that it did not arrive sooner than 1t did, When I passed through Omaha tWo years ago, on my way west, 1 foresaw something of this sort.

A Pointed Letter From City Attorney Connell—The Opposition Unmasked and the Real Bone of Conten- tion Set Forth, To the Editor of the Be In view of the “gag rule”’ enforced by Chairman Gallagher at the meeting of citizens called to consider the new charter, which prevented a discus- sion of the real cause of the opposition to the amendments proposed, I deem it my duty as a citizen, as well as an official of this city, to direct the attention of our citizens and our legislators to the cause of such opposi- tion. The real bone of contention 1s the change made by the Douglas county delegation quiring the taxation of the property of road and telegraph companies, the same as the property of other corporations and the ne as the property of individuals is taxed. This, 1 believe, ean be demonstrated to the satisfaction of any fair minded, disinterested person. ‘Ihe objections to the hrovision con- cerning the board of public works, and the objections urged to a few other sections, seive as a pretext merely for the fusilladé now being made upon the charter by the rail- roads, their attorneys and representatives while the cot of defeating the eharter taxation of railway 1 rt poses.
