Senator Bprick's Experience With a Burglar—Real Eetate Transactions ~Pollce Court Notes—Happen- fngs Abont Lincoln. [FROM TIE BEE'S LINCOLN BUREAU.] A new Iroad company has filed its articles of ncorporation with the seere tary of state, and from the fact that t incorporators are in Utah it tends to ca a shroud of mystery over the matter as to what are the intents, aims and purposes of the builders on paper in this new Ne- braska line. The names of the incorpor- ators are pot familiar in railroad circles without they might be out in the region of the Cen! ific, and it will remain for future solution just how much reality there is in the movement. The articles of incorporation recite thatin accordance with the compiied statutes of the state of Nebraska the company incorporate under the name of the Nebraska & Western railway, the termini of the road being at a point near the town of Covington, in Dakota county, and at a point on the western boundary line of the state of Nebraska between the forty-second and forty-third parallels of lati- tude, passing through the coun- tics of Dakota, Wayne, Cedar, Knox, Pierce, Antelope, Holt, Wheeler, Gartield, Brown, Loup, Blaine, Cherry, Sheridan, Dawes,{Cheycenne and Sioux, orguch of them as the main line and branches may be conducted therein. The amount of ca §6,000,000, di- vided into shares of $100 each, and the incorporators are Ovando J. iollester, Maurice W. Kaighn, Jobn L Packard, Donald McLean and James D. Negrees, the sdgement being takeu in the city of It Lake, Utah, betore C. O. Wiittermore, a notary public. Articles of consolidation of the Union Pacific branches known as the Or Republican Valley line and the Blue ley railway have been filed with the sec- retary of state, the consolidation remoy- ing the Blue Valley road from the rec- ords and merging both lines into the Owaba & Repubiican Valley road, 1 numes of Charles Francis® Adums and Xhisha Atking appear upon the articles. A FIGHT AT CHURCIHI. The Salyation Army now holding meet- ings in this city have been subjected to a many indignities during the past katthe hands of the loafers and 1 who attend their services purposly to raise a row. Sunday night a drunken man, with a retinue of followers, were at the meeting, and when they had their disturbance well inaugurated the special policeman ordered them to desist and proceeded to put the drunken man out, The friends of the disturber rallied to his gupport, and 1t lo as if blood would flow, but the policeman, who was armed with a heavy cane, cracked one of them over the head and the resthad a whole- some f of the ment. After the man had been ¢, :d him- £elf by a flow of oaths and obscene lan- guage which fully exemplified his char- ancter. SENATOR SPRICK'S EXPERIENCE. Senator Sprick, of Washington county, during his winter's residence inLincoli, has rooms at Eighteenth and M streets. Sunday evening about 6 p. m. he was out tor a walk and upon returning to his room in the dusk of the evening he was confronted by a stranger who was busy going througn the wardrobe and per- sonal effects of the senator in search of his per diem and wmileage. The burglar, when asked what he wanted, at once ghowed fight and drew a revolve The senator, however, had not been through a senatorial fight to be frightened by a common, everyday burglar, so he closed at once with the thief and n hand-to-hand struggle ensued for a few minutes, when the thief man- aged to break away, slide down and out of the honse. Senator Sprick gave chase, and reaching the street gave the alarm, which bronght out the mneighborhood, a flreet-footed resident taking the situation at a glance and pursuing the thief so vig- orously that a half dozen blocks away he was_overhauled, The burglar hchf off wrties who attempted to intercept him ],\ showing His weapon and threatening In the course of his flight he threw away a bunch of skeleton keys and about 25 in money. He had whén captured and taken to jail about $40 in cash and Senator Sprick’s pocketbook, hich, however, contained little of value, Mr. Sprick had nis money in another pocket. The thief gave his name to the police as Lewis, and he was at once yecognized as one of the gang of sneak thieves and pickpoekets who were in the city at the time of the state fair, and who at that tims was arrested but escaped the penitentiary from the fact that the proof against him was not solid enough to con- viet. The shoes on the man’s feet were fixed espeeiully for his kind of work, and the officers were unanimous in the opin- ion that he is one of the gang raiding the city the present time. THE LATEST DEAL IN DIRT. The contract was closed yesterday hy which the Lamaster lot, 50 by 142, on the corner of O and Tweltth strects, was pur- ‘hased by Mayor C. C. Burr, the consid- tion namea in the purchase being §19,000. This is one ot the choicest busi- ness lots in the city, and has been a plum in real estate eireles that has been eagerly watched and as eagerly plucked, —The announcement goes with the fact of the purchase that upon this lot Mr. Burr will the coming season erect & seven-story brick block, and if the number of floors is a littlo high, there need exist no doubt that the ground will be built upon. IN POLICE COURT. The police were after a man yesterday with a warrant, charging him with biting off the nose of a man vamed Sullivan in 8 Sunday night row at the Metropolitan hotel. The warrant ealled for the arrest of Thomas Nolan, who is charged with the offense recited, John Haley and William I)rf'hurn were reclining in the cooler yesterday charged with raising & row and” smashing a show @ at tho notorions ranche of Mollie Hall, on P street. As the provrietor of the bagnio failed to appear at the morn- ing session of the court to prosecute, the cuse was postponed until this morning.

They are valued at $2,000 each. 1t has been determined to the satisfaction of every numismatist that those two dollars we not ecoined until 1828 although they were struck from the original 1504 die, They were secretly, made, although such a pro- cedure i a penal offense, for some ono hizh in influence and aathority, who de- gired them for certain coin colleotions, It has never been positively ascertained how the surrentitious work was accom- plished, but there is no doubt that it was done. Why the dolliar of 1804 was never seen 1n eirculation after leaving the mint is one of the unsolved government mys- teries, “A still greater mystery surrounds the half dollar of 1804 'Of that coin nearly 160,000 were struck. Not one was ever discovered in cireulation. The quarter dollars of 184 are numerous enough—so I)lcmy, in fact, that a fair specimen es be bought for two dollars, and their comage amounted to less than seyen thousand pi A curious thing has been discoyered regarding the hait dol- lar of 1805, which 18 not a rare coin, ex- cept in the case of those possessing the curiosity I speak of, which increases the value tenfold. This is thatthe figure tive in 1805 has been struck over a figure four, showing that the coin was really one of the undiscovered minting of 1804, What became of the large issue of 1804 half No one knows or ever will know; but it is evident that all of them were not issued from the mint, and this belief that there was some reason for not desiring the coin to circuls strengthened by the mint oblite date on what was left by making 1805 halt dollars of them. “There was no silver dollar issued from the mint in 1805, coined, and are in the hands of collectors to-day, just as they came fromthe die. Nodoiflars were coined by the government after that until 1836." Colgate's ere Bouquet.

It was known that Lee had crossed into Pennsylvania, threatened Washington, and that battle had been joined near Gettysburg, upon which in all prob- ability, the fate of Washington and the issue of the war depended.

Then came a long interval when nothing was heard of Meade, and the president was wrought up_to an in- tense pitch of excitement. Night came on, and Stanton, sceing the president worn out with care and anxiety, pr suaded him to retnrn to the white fmm ) promising if anything came over the wires during the night to give him im- mediate information. At last toward midmght came the electric flash of the at victory which sayed the union. Stanton seized the dispatch and ran as fast as he could to the executive mansion, up the stairs and knocked at the room where the president was catching a fitful slumber. “Who is there?'’ he heard in the voice of Mr. Lincoln. *‘Stanton.” ‘I'ne door opened and Mr. Lincoln ap- peared with a light in his hand peering through the crack of the door, *‘in the shortest nightdress and longest legs,” as Stanton said, he ever saw on a human being. Before Stanton, who was out of breath, could say a word, the president, who had eaught with unerring instinet the expression of his face gave a shout of with both arms around the waist and danced him around the chamber until they were both ex- hay They then sat down upon a trunk, and the president, who was still in his mightdress, read over and over again the telegram and then discussed with him the probabilities of the future and the re- sults of the victory until the day dawned., Such a scene at midnight between two of the greatest Americans whom this generation has produced, to whom an all-wise providence had committed in Jargest measure the fate of republican liberty in this western world, may not atlord a subject for the lofuest concep- tions of the poct or the painter, but more than any other incident within my knowledge it shows the human nature of these two great men, and brings them home to the hearts and bearthstones of the plain peoplo of whom Mr. Lincoln was, on whom he depended and whom he loved. It shows him brooding all through those three awful days, with an auxiety akin to agony which no one could share—worn and weary with the long and doubtful contlict between hope and fear—treading the wine press for s people alone. And at last, when thoe lightning flash had lifted the dark cloud, daneing like a schoolboy in the eecstacy of delight and ibiting & toucn of that hmen nature which makes all the world akin, AsTlook back over the intervening years to the great men and great events of those historie days, his figure rises be- fore my memory the grandest and most majestic of thom all.

That any citizen of this state, or any other for that matter, who is at all observant of passing events, present po- litical methods, oflicial corrupt corporate power and snvremac possibly be surprised at Van W) foat, shows how stupidly contiding people have become in a majority of the me elected to represent them. Notwith- standing the 50,000 majority of popular votes cast to express the people’s prefe ence for him, his defeat in some quartc was confidently predicted. It would have been the same had the vote been 100,600, It is plan, and had the people good sound sense they would have un- derstood before, and without an “if,” that no man, be he Van Wyck or any other of like ability and character, can be _re-elected to the position of nited States senator. ‘T'he manner of el ate of the United States is a stupendous humbug, and ought to have been abol- ished years ago, and to tolerate it farther would be disgraceful to any people claiming to uphold a republican govern- ment. If the people wanted Van Wyck their 50,000 maj should h elected him straight. intervention of some scoundrels, who would probably be stealing horses had not the laws pro- vided an easier, safer and more gentecl form of theft, has again cheated the peo- ple out of, not_an ordinary, but a very particular and extraordinary choice, he same thing has “happened” many a time before. It will happen again and again, ad infinitum and eternally, un- ss something more efiicacious than the usual resolutions of indignation meer- ings or the old style newspaper scolding, and protesting, is done to stop it. The people need to at onco recognize the fact that too many of the members of the modern legi: ive bodies are invet- te and incorr i s, who get into office by any means which the long experience of their craft has shown to be the most successful, They do not hesi- tate to make pledges to the peo- ple who elect them. To haggle, to dodgze or prevaricate, or refuse to pledge themselves to earry out the peo- plo’s wishes would be v sional and would be dam; character as villains, And any pledge their constituenc actto secure their election. in getting elected is ob tated and specitic one. ¥ cided 1n advance upon tke purpose or purposes they intend to accomplish, and to serve the people honestly is far from being one of them. They “know, if not by personal experience, ~certainly by ex- ample, that corruption money will be avishly expended by the monopoly pi- rates to purchase the service of the incog thieves. They accordingly scll-out when the opportunity comes, and in addition to their salaries pocket the price of treason. No thief, no robber, no p of the milder type, knows of any easier way on eurth to make money, one so en- tircly exempt from pumishment as this. To hurl indignation resolutions in the most indignant and resolute manner possible, or any sort of wordy missiles in the most sayage and unrelenting fury at such hard shell and depraved specinmiens of humanity as these 18 like trying to de- molish a goose with vigorous discharges of water from a toy sauirt gun. They surely must laugh at the people for their supreme gulhbility and childlike meth- ods of resentment for an injury and a crime the equal of which would, "if com- mitted in the conduct of their legitimute business, (horse stealing) very likely cost them their lives. It seems impossible that the political treachery, such a3 has just cheated the people of Nebraska out of their distinctly chosen senatorial representative, have been tolerated until the time, and they know, or should know, very well that until a change has been made in the way of dealing with those of their representatives, who, evidently for a consideration, turn traitor and help their enemies, that the only thing an be sure of in the nt and regular repetition of this t beinous and far-reaching of all crimes.

In other words place the civil oflicer on an cquality with the soldier who must dght tne military battles which are but too often the resuit of civil treason; for he whosows the wind should of right be compelled to sutfer the consequences of the whitlwind, Such a civil code would insure the people against that class of political vultures whoso per- fidious conduct 1 oflice has the ultimate effect of bringing on our race as much or more of pain and misery as have the transgressions of criminals now ex- piating their sins in the penitentis He who objects to such a law is not for a public ofli Ie evidently dis- trusts his own honesty, and if he so manifestly distrusts himself the peopl have thereby the strongest reason to re- gard him with grave picion.

While alty is now af ed to « tain infractions of the civil law, to extend it prudently to a few others, the peopls would not be thereby excceding their power to make and execute such law. recent experience has shown to be im- peratively pecessary for the security of domestie peace and” national perpetiit it now is many really innocent, well- aning and faithful soldiers are shot sad for possibly a short and much- needed nap, and under the proposed new professors of e icanery and compound trea- son would suffer from its operation in the civil branch of our government. On the other hand, another reform to co-operate with the one just outlined should be simultaneously instituted. C. tion and monopoly lobbies which persistently hang around our leg- islatures to sway the current of leg tion by their yicious andiniguitous meth- ods, should be promptly stamped out, Not a vestige, nor semblance of ir, should be allowed to remain. astonishing fact that it now e shows either that the people col are t of mummies or are culpably loyal to a proscriptive government, Scarcely would any free American citi- zen, in his own individual business con- cerns, for & moment tolerate a similar rence, one so monumentally impu- nd damr s that called “lob- in our statc tional Jegisla Lobbying is earried on in st of the railroad highwaymen brig: monopc 18 an almost cqual in i Ivis largely by means of the lobby that railroad and other cor- ccure the passage, or defoeat, aws as may conduce to their ad- vantage or otherwise.
