AN ALLEGED TEACHER EXPOSED A Newsy Grist of Railroad Notes— Local Laconies—Police Mat- ters and Other Local News, Ftc, Charged With Murder, Shortly before 12 o'clock yesterday a warrant was sworn outin police court for the arrest of Officer William Whate, on the charge of murdering John Rich- ardson early Sunday morning. The complaint was drawn up hy Attorney Edward Crowell who represents the plamntiffs, Alexander Richardson, brother of the dead man, R.T. '\ll-nlfur' president of the brickia union Shrum, scere- tary of the same, @ ul )] O'Keefe a prominent member of the organization. The warrant was placed in the of an oflicer, sded at once to serve it, Officer White was arrested yosterday afternoon and his bonds were fixed in the sum of £5,000. He ¢ the bonds and was released for examination on Satur- day. who proc A FUND RAISED The bricklayers, after the death of their comrade, held a secret n-goting and raised a fund of betwee 1,500, with which to prose tis also stated able $6.000 mc i One of the d friends snid yes- torday: “Weo propose to sce this thing through to the bitter end, and if pn\fll)h' have this man White brought to justice, Why, if we don't, no n life is safe in this You or [ are justas liable to be shot down as Ric! son in cold blood. Wo have all the money we need to earry this thing through.’ Another man said: “You can depend upon it, we will make things warm for White. ' If there is any justice in Omaha we propose to find it out,” Assistant Distvict Attorney Redick said: ““We hy fditional important evi dence in this case which is being col- lated,” wir FAKES A “LAY-OFF"., Since the sad occurrence of Sunday morning Officer White has not been on his beat. At the conclusion of the in- quest Commings granted him a ten days’ wtion, as he was feeling badly in need of res! “White is one nl\h(- best men on the force,” the marshal, ‘“‘and has a clean record. I'never went on his beat but that I found lum on duty. ter what time of night or day I for im I always found him on deck. 1 haps this prosceation, as it had to come, was best after all. It will dispose of the question of his guilt once for all.” “A TELEGRAPH SCHOOL." The Western Unifon Boys Expose an Alleged Teacher's Incompetency. Some of the operators of the Western Union office have recently been engaged in a little private investigation on th own hook, which has not * only furnished them considerable sport, but has shown up in his troe light an individ who has put himself forward as an expert light- ning slinger and a competent wstructor in tne profession of ln:lognlph\’. For more than a year Mr. W. Dobbs has been conducting in (mumu s block a *'school of telegraphy,’ with a ‘s 55" that would make the common y fakir turn green with envy. ‘“‘Pro Dobbs has his college equipped in the finest style. A consumptive battery that is stowed under the rickety desk of the manager in one end of the room tur- nishes the clicking power for the pro- ssor’s students, of whow there guite a number. The professor adver- tises that he can teach the lightning jorker's art in the brief s f two months, and pledges payir ] to all of his gradustes. Hi §5 per month, with a fow extras for sup- posed benefits to the pupils. y young men, anxious to learn a trade af such reasonable terms have taken advants \ze ot the professor’s inducements and the result 1s that the city has been overrun by a lot of “hams” who are look- ing for positions ns managers of tele- graph oflices, while they know as little about the business as o hogz docs of the Chinese holids The Western Union operators have been bored nearly to death by these position seckers and con- cocted a scheme to find out the workings of the professor's wonderful school. Operator Boyle, who takes the night press report at the Western Union, was chosen as the leader of the scheme. He applied to the professor for instruction, stating that he knew a little about the business, but wanted to become a fin- ighed operaor under the instruction of the professor, of whom he haa heard so much. The professor pro d the de- gired finishing course and placed the stu- dent at a table with instructions to go ahead and sce what he could do, the pro- fessor receiving at his desk. Boyl started out in & manner that would n the veriest “ham’ shudder, He improve under a few suggestions from the pro- fessor however, and s nly com- menced firing the Declaration of Inde- pendence at the professor in a manner that broke him all up. He stroggled manfully fora few minutes and then threw up his hands with an agonizing groan. Boyle then cornered him and made him confess that he knew com- aratively nothing of the business ex he work of collecting fee that he did no harm as h learncd anything. The We boys accomplished their purpose in prov. ing that the pr sor is not capable of giving i ) in the telegraphers’ art, uml now they propose to use their in- k umug ambitious learners 'ES, Mattors Pertaining n Lrail, A Newsy Grist o tothe I Delegations representing the Union Pacific members of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and employes of the system generally ar They have come to” Omahs matters connected with the departime ferent lod ~ sulting with the Union P been merely preliminary.
