THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SU LAMBERTSON OCT OF OFFICE. Febraskn's United ftates Dictrict Attorney & Refuses to Hoid Over Temporarily: WHO WILL BE HIS SUCCESSOR? A Warning to Beware of Lincoln Real Bstate Agents—Ladies Or- ganiza a Firm - Capital City News, [FROM THE BEE'S LINCOLN BUREAU.| In these latter days the speetacle of a democratio administration trying to re- tain & republican ina choice office, an of the republican refusing to enjoy the plucked plum for a brief session, has been reserved for Nebraska. Hon. ( M. Lambertson's term as United States district attorney for Nebraska terminated on Thursday, the 24th, and the office under the law became vacant. Yester day Mr. Lambertson received a telegram from Attorney General A. H. Garland re- questing him to continue temporarily as United States district attorney for N braska and to send on to Washington a certificate copy of his bond herctofore filed during his term of office. Mr. Lambertson refuses to comply with the uest, and informed Attorney General i to that effect. In a short inter- view with Mr. Lambertson yesterday he stated t he was somewhat surprised that the administration did not appoint gomoe democrat from the numerous list of npplicantsto the office, if for only a short time. Mr. Lambertson thinks the reason tinat the president has thus far delayed appointing Mr. Pritchett, of Omana, per- manently, is beeause Senator Van Wyck {5 known not to favor him and would un- toubtedly oppose Lis confirmation, and that as s00u as the senator’s time expires Pritchett will secure the position. A PROPERTY HOLDER SPEAKS, In ajburried interview with a man with an addition yesterday, on the all nbsorbing topie of deals in dirt the Bre man was given a history of real estate ngents in nf;unurul way that was qu vigorous. It scems to be getting quito igerous for a real estate owner to Jook at a real estate nt, every squint costing the holder a commission to be paid to one or more of this hungry crowd of, to use & common expression, sharks. Several suits for the recovery of commissions have been brought of Jate by some special, general, or would- be agents, and the services rendered by each of them are put up in every con- ceivable form. The matter has come to puch a pass thuta property holder avers itis r.-..\w unsafe for a proprietor to 1et his land remain out ot doors, for the reason t some bulldozing agent is more t ikely to be heard kum‘km[; At the mau's door, repeating the biblical command of the Nazarene to Zaccheus, “Come down!” Scveral citizens have united in preparing a law, which they wtend to have passed, making parties liable to ageuts for com- missions only when the same 18 in writmg, signed by both owner and agent. At Niangara Falls the standing warning is “Beware of the hackman;" at Lincoln, “Beware of the real estate agent.” LADILS IN REAL ESTATE. During the past week Mrs. E. T Roberts and Miss Emma Gillispie formed a partnership for the purpose of opening a real estate ofiice, his new and somee what novel firm in the real estate busi- ness bas its oflice in the Richard’s block adjoining the rooms of the Nebraska Stock Yards company. Miss Gillispie is one of the fow lady notaries in the state and is equipped for the proper exccution of all papers, and the firm has an _excol- lent horse and carriage with which to drive home-seckers who wish to inspect property. Tho ladies will give all prop- erty entrusted to them careful attention and the lirm will undoubtedly be a popu- 1sr one. 4 IN DISTRICT COURT. There w little business of import- ance before the district court yesterday and not until the present week will there e a really advance made in trials. wo or three of the prisoners in the county jail awaiting trial have been ar- raigned, pleading not guilty and having counsel assigned to them. One of the nt cases in court wascommenced last week, involving litization over f some lots near Seventh and L Th lots were sold in so far as the New York City owner is concerned, for $3,600, and the lots are reputed to command §8,000 i the market av th present timo. The litigation arises over the question of who purchased the lo “The case is Henry Veith vs J. H. Me- Murtry, D. B, Howard ot al, and Mr. Veith recites in his petition that he re- ceved by letter from the owner in New y an offer to him of the lots tor Mr. Veith alleges that he at once neeented the offer by telegram and also telegraphed a money order for $500 us o partial payment. ~ Mr. Veith further ulleges that on the day that he made this purchase Medurtry found out_about it, and, by collusion and fraud, elaiming to be the agent of the vproperty, immedi- ately made a pretended sale of the lots for the same amount to D. B. Howard. Mr. Yeith sets forth that this was o sale, but that it was a scheme of McMurtry to get the lots himself turough connivanee with Howard. As there nppears to be about $4,000 profitin the deal over the common seiling price, the case promises to be de cidedly interesting when it receives a hearing. THE METHODIST UNIVERSITY. During the pust week the committeo from the Nebraska conferences havin the matter of the new university in eharge held n two days' session in the eapital city furthering the plans for building the coming sumwer. One of the features of the meoting tl was hailed with a good deal of satisfaction by Lincoln people was the fact of the rapidly disappearing an- tagonism of York and other conference schools in the state that, after they were defeated in location, had declared in s half manner war on the university. From present indications past aifferences have cen amicably adjusted and a big uni- versity, with all the title implies, is an as- sured faet for the city of Linccln, A QUIET WEEK. The past week in social cireles has been one of Lhe most quiet of the winter sea- son, and an absenee of important ball bangnets and social gatherings was nc ticeable in society atmosphere. There is prospects for an awakering, however, the coming week.

Not only is it doubtful that the “Queen of Scng” will ever re. visit us, but it wonld be an impossibility to reunite five such brilliant artists to- gether again. For the number of years that Mme.

On the diy previons the conviets were treated to a bountiful repast of and victuals, according to an ancie custom with' prisoners just before their execution, Early the next morning the condemned were taken out of their celis and placed between two bodies of soldior and haying been sceurely bound and manacted, were placed in carts and at once conveyed to the execution ground de of the Hsuan Wu gate, where a mat shed had been erected for thie ac modation of the judges and other officials concerned in superintending the execu- tion, At alittle after noon the imperial order was received cousigning thre prits to death by deeapitation and six- teen by strangulation, aud to the remain- ing twelve, four of whom were men hold- ing ofticial positions, his majesty grauted a reprieve, and they were accordingly taken back to their cells. It was about four o'clock in the afternoon when the executions were ended.

Men of sclf respect, men of sturdy in- dependence, often find themselves ben r nuch lower the haughty head than they approve beeause of gnawing stom- achs and hungry eyes and unclad feot at home. There is no occupation known to man so packed with possibilities of men tal refreshment, of bmhl?- enjoyment, of human healthfulness, of humanitarian endeavor as journalism. 1 take no stock in the oft repeated story that news- paper men are underpaid. That but another way of saying that they are part of the hiuman race he human race 1s divided into two uneven parts. The o gets what it wants. The other, ur Vastly the lurge is ' com- pelled to take what its employer is willing to give. T'here is no necessity of entering upon a discussion of this, It is a sumple, patent, demonstrable fact, We find here a furmer who tinds it difli- cult to drag from the unwilling soil corn cnough for his hogs, grass enough for his cow, vegetables enongh for his fumly, while right slongside are the fat fields of opulence, whose grain waves in the sum- mer breezes, from which come monu- mental crops of cc potatoes, of all known vegetables, with ma of hay so volnminous us to crack the very sides of substantinl barns, and necessitate the stucking of its shupely piles in open tields.

And bere, by the side of men who make from $3,000 to §50,000 a year, we tind other men of equul intélligene, often of greater education, with sensibi itics as fine, and intuitions as womanly, who drag one heavy foot after the other lieavy {00! highway which gives but & bare subsistence, ‘ending in the ditch of poverty, or the asylumof in- Tdon® know, These are facts, so that when we ap- proach that much discussed question is it wise for a writer to use his signature, there is 50 much to be said on either side that the reader taking no special interest i it may well say: A plague on both your houses; give us the matter, signed or not, we don't eare. JOURNALISTS' TEMPTATIONS, And yet isu't it sad? Don’t you, as participators in the bene- fits scattered broadeast by Fisher and men of equal calibre, recognize the in- justice to nim and to them? His four- teen years might well have streteched out to forty, For reasons known to us who are his friends Fisher died prematurely. He was never strong, and the tax upon his physigue by the urduosities of s pro- fession which he loved was more than he could bear. I don t believe that the late hours, the writing by gas light or eleotrie light, the nerve strainings that our pro- 165500 demans. are 5o Wearing as peo- ple like to ins.st, ent I do believe that the tomptaticns whieh beset the paths of nowspaper men, ranging all the way from distasteful flatteries to almost - necessary dissipations, have much to, do with the average shortness of life in our profcs- sion Look at it for a moment. What old man have we here? CHAKLES A.

He is a strong, substantial man WITH VIGOR PRONOUNCED in every line. Yet who has worked harder, whose road has been more tor- tuous’ Who has fought more fiercely, whio has had more blows to take as well | as to give than he? And yet Charles A Dana can look back over his forty years of journalism and count you four gener ations of newspaper men who have come, who have labored, who have gone. The festive oceasions held in the rooms of the New York Press club disclose the fact that the vast majority of the men of the press are young -under thirty. Fisher was but thirty-three, and yet €3 conspic uous had been his seryice that the New York Herald, which may well be con- sidered the dean of our profession, saw fit to vay him_ a tribute which was as merited and as just in its estimate as it was graceful and affectionate in terms. One of the points made was the anony- mous charaeter of Fisher's work, ANONYMOUS INDEED, for even his friends, companions and as- socintes were not always informed of the authorship of his matter, It isa curious feature in journalism that writers invari- ably read what they have written, and rarely read what others have wriiten un- fess it be for a purpose. Come with me into the rooms of the Press club. See the young men who write upon our leading journals. Ench buys the paper on which he s employed. Each turn to_the page on which his article appea; Each reads what he had written, Curionsy Oh, no You go to church, yon hear Mr. Beecher, Mr. Talmage,” Mr. Hall, Mr. Phillips Brooks.

Asa rule there isnothing but the pith presented. You cannot explain why you do it, except on the broad “ground ot human contemporancous interest. Youn goto a ]vI:u’, or to an opera, and when you read the criticisms, or reports as they would much better be called, re first that whieh treats of the p! or the opers you saw or heard, Whyt TUNKNOWN AUTHORS. So it is with newspaper writers, and in all probability among the army of men employed by the New York Herald who knew Fisher intimately, were his com- panions and associates, on an average not more than once in a_dozen times would any person save the city editor, or the managing editor, or the blue pencil fiend who marks the paper for Mr, Bennett’s information, know that he was the_author of that particular article. Now what do men work for? W has Fisher gained for his four- teen years of intelligent industry? Moncy? That’s nonsens We all know better than that. The best pud journalsts rarely save a dollar, and Fishér, with no Iy dependant upon him, with no ne- cessities hanging about his neck, worked wm'n‘hu plensed and spent all he re ved. or fame, perhaps? Well, in view of the obituary, and this letter, 1t is obvious that no fame attended his progress through lite, and the fame that cames after Jife is ended, and death completed, is no particular consolatory in the hours of tribulation passed on earth. For what then, could he have worked? There comes a strong argument in favor of ving banks, Jife insurance combanies and signatures, HOW THE OLD FELLOWS ECONOMIZE! We know that Peter Cooper—I say I know it because he told 1 hin when o day put cents each'd The books of succc merchants tell us how Astor, Vanderbilt, all the great money savers who accumu- Iated fortunes for other people to spend, put away little by little. Mr. toguet, of the Emigrant Savings bank told me th he had 65,000 individual accounts upon the books of his bank, and all are active As stood with him in the 1k on Chambers street I looked at the rowsof forcigners there, Irish, German and Swedes. There were hundreds there waiting tieir chance to deposit. They wore the rich people of the future. Their ehidren will sit in the Metropolitan opera house half a decade hence, as to-day wo find sitting there the families of mén who began in this Cooperian man- ner, putting away FIFTY CENTS A DAY or whose fathers did it for them. Itis vossible for a man so to live and so to save, but he must be constituted to that end when he begins. He must have the grip between his thumb and forclinger. He'must bave somewhere in his mind a bump of coin appreciation, for mind you I don’t believe that Peter Cooper, or iny of those people, suid to themsclves, *1 will put away tlus Gity cents to day in order that lifty years from now my ehil- dren and grandehildren may make splur- ges,” There may be such men as that ulso, but I'don't believe that Peter Cooper ever had such a thonghtn his mind., [ believe he wasa good man, with an ap preciation, cven an y age of tie power of money, and he determined then o use that power when it came in his grasp for the good and the healing of the nations, so far as he could, Now Fisher, like the rest of us, might doubtless have put 1y something every day, but he didn’t.
