THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: TUESDAY. CREMATION DONE AWAY WITH A Nebraska Man's Invention For Extinguish- ing Fires in Passenger Coaches. BATISFACTORY TESTS MADE, Coplesofthe Correspondence Between Veterinarians Gerth and Billings ~MReal Estats Transactions— Capital News. [FROM THE BEE'S LINCOLN BUREAU.] James Hocking, of Denton, has in- vented and patented a device to extin- guish fires in passenger coach stoves that, judging from an entirely successful test of the invention's merits, witnessed by the BEE, is bound to revolutionize the present fire trap coaches in railway acci- dents and forever prévent cremation in wrecked coaches. Mr. Hocking's inven- tion is simple and appurently perfect, and does its work with a vigor that nceds to be soento be appreeiated. Tho invention is a cylinder to which pressure is applied, and this cylinder is placed nearly over nny kind of a railway coach stove, with a pive leading from the cylinder into the topof the stove. This eylinder is charged like a common Babeock extinguisher, or it may be simply charged with wator. It is ready for action by simply holding the piston in the cylinder to the upper end of it with springs, and from the springs connection is made with a catch and rod to an appliance just back of the bumpers on the platform of the coach. When the nceident occurs, if the cars telescope, the nppliance on the platform is struck and in a second the contents of the cylin- der are forced into the stove with 1 pressure that knocks every particle of fire lifeless and harmless. Again, if the coach in a wreck falls over on its side, a weight under the car, the moment the coach topples over, ncts exaetly in the same manner as the apphance on the coach platform. Yesterday afternoon the inventor tested his patent in a base- ment room on P street, using a heavy soft coal stove that was fired up until it was red hot and filled with flames. The cylinder was simply loaded with about a gallon of water, but when it was dis- charged in the stove it cleuned the fire out 8o effectually that not a spark could be found in tne unburnt coal and ashes. BSeveral tests were made as rapidly as the stove could be heated and each was equally successful. When this is in oper- ntion on a train and the train reaches its destination, all that is required is for the brakeman to pull a pin on the rod that connects the eylinder and spring with the conaection on the platform and beneath the car, and the machine is simply an or- nament, as it were. The invention isin N0 manner 1n the way, being fastened ngainst the side of the coach over and nboye the stove and tho other nppliances are entirely out of the way. Mr. Hocking, aside from his model made for practical experiments, has a small model consisting of a section of a car with everything complete in mima- ture and this illustrattes in every partic- ular just the way the invention works. Mr. Hocking, the inventor, lives at pres- ent at the village of Denton, in this county, but he was for years accupying a position in railway work in the east. He has made several practical inventions, but he regards this as by far the greatest success he has ever achieved. Associated with him in potting the invention before the public are Colonel Tom Price, of Ben- nett, a practical raiiroad man, and a few other citizens, The invention will be placed before prominent railway men at once. GERTH TO BILLINGS. The assoviate editor of the Journal and employe of the regents as a voterinary experimenter, Dr. Billings, has been earning hissalary through laborious ar- ticles 1in the State Joural attacking the live stock commission and state veterina- rianall the winter months. The com- mission hus, to use its statement, recog- nized the source and remained silent, 0s has also the state veterinarian up to the present. A recent article by Dr. Billings was 8o far misleading and exhibited the animus of tho writer so unmistakably that Dr. Gerth has seen fit to reply to it and furnishes the following communication for publication: On Thursday last there appeared in the Journal an article on pleuro-pneuinonia written by Dr. Billings, in which he charged the live stock sanitary commission and state ceterinarian with a gross negleet of their du- ties, the display of inexcusable inorance, ete,, and accused them ot releasing danger- ous.and suspiclous pleuro-pneumonia cattle, because after careful consideration it was de- vided to admit a few head of cattle and calyes coming from Cook county, Iil. ‘The egotistical alarmist Billings says the cattle were suspicious ‘“‘because they did come from Cook cmmti' 1L, which is known to be a verfect pest hole of the contagious Jung rhgua at present.” 1f the “‘chronl: kcicker”” had been less hasty and taken a little pains to learn the facts as 0 the condition of affairs in Cook county he would hardly have been guilty of making such an unwarranted and unreliable state- nient as the above. Ilis intentions in this as In numerous other instances have not been honest. For the benefit of those Interested I will statethat Mr. Ernest Ricker's cattle were re- leased, first, because the aftidavits and certifi- cates were made in good faith und because the error in the " papers was only a technical one, which Dr. B. would prob- ably have discovered were it not for the fact that the office of Dr. Thomas, the stock in- spector, was entered during lis absence, the papers stolen from his desk, and a hasty copy taken for fear of being caught in the act. Another reason for releasing the cattle was because I stated to the commissioners that in my opinion_cattle from Cook county were Aafer than from any other county in lllinois. ‘That the position I'took was a ocorrect one can readily be seen from the following tele- gram, received here in reply to inquiries made in what direction: SprINGrieuD, 111, March 5, 1837.—J, Grog , State Veterinarian: All cattle that are known to have been exposed to pleuro-pneumonia are in strict quarantine, All diseased and exposed animals will be slaughtered. C. R. JORNSON, Secretary Live Stock Commission. Another statement made by Billings isthat he nas been informed by reliablo authority *'that catile are )mxslnr Tecly into Nebraska atallt and any time from Sioux City, Ia., without any mensure being taken to in- speet them.” 1n reply to this assertion 1 will simply say that he don't know what he is walking about, ‘The time has cowe to shat off the idiotic crank ! EnrTH, I, D. V. 8., State Veterinarian, TWO REAL ESTATE TKANSACTIONS. _Two of the latest real estate transac. tions to come to light were developed yesterday, one of them being a sale by J. H. McMurtry of seventy-five acres of ground lying southwest of "the city, the ' t bringing the handsome sum of 000 in cash; alsc yesterday a sale of the storeroom occupied by Clason & Fletcher on O street was made to o G. M. Baldwin, the consideration being $17,500. Upon this most eligible business site Mr. Baldwin will ercet the comin, summer a handsome four-story brick an stone business houso. MINOR EVENTS. The live stock commissioners wera out at different points in the state the past week, killing three glandered horses at Dunbar and one at Geneva, The present week the commission will answer calls at Beatrice, Culbertson, and up in Da- hota county, from which poiuts com- aints huve roached their offico. A lad named Henry Anderson ran away from s home at Creston, Ia., and was und by Ofticer Westover and arrested day in this city, [lis father was tele- dhed and yesterday arrived in the ity and de‘pllrled lhomeward with the young hopeful, Clrarles MclLaugllin, an e;mploye at the Uapitol hotel, was in police court yester- day charged with creating a_distiirbance and breaking furniture at the hotel. It seems that he was discharged, and it made him ugly. The court fined him $10 and costs and he was committed. William Elrick, for fighting, was fined in police court yesterday. M. Will- iams, drunk and disorderly, was given a like amount. TwoJohn Does and two plain drunks further replenished the city exchequer with fines in less amounts, The *‘legislative train" is a thing of the past, and the mode of ingress and egress to the capital city has been to that extent ned. If the B. & M. would run the train to reach Lincoln earlier in the day it would have been more substantially patronized. ,The gospel army had another tough siege at their Sunday night meeting. There was a free-for-all fight and no ar- 1esta, There is an elegant opportunity at such times as this for the police force to distinguish itsclf by seel to 1t that people can have public meetings of wor- ship without being attacked by toughs. Judge Chapman was in the city yes- terday holding with Judge Pound ‘a ses- sion of the district court. Judge Chap- man has just returned from holding court at Beatrioe for Judge Broady in the trial of the party arrested there for throwing vitriol, Among the Iatest real estate firms is the firm of MeBride & Melone, Mr. McBride being an old hand at the business and Mr. H. C. Meclone joining with him to make a team for the coming busy times. The new firm's first step has been to place Knob Hill addition on the market, which they are successfu.ly pushing to the front. [ SIE—— Some fashionable ladies are not satis- fied with ready-made fans, but must have th made to_order; they are, however, istied with Dr. Bull's Cough’ Syrup at 25 cents and take it regularly, “One fire burns out another's burning, " and most pain suffers more to be cured, but Salvation Oil is painless and certain. It costs only 25 cents. ————— Temperance at Walnat Hill, The church at Waluut Hill was crowded Sunday evening by the boys and girls of the Sunday School Temperance army and their frirnds. The meeting was opened by Rev, A. H. Sawyer reading a portion of scripture and leading in prayer. Mr. Frank Johnson, the superintendent of Walnut Hill Sunday school,then called forward the young volunteers who gave the following recitations: “The Little Cup Bearer”..Salina Eppeneter. “‘Womans Power’’ Nellie Riley. “Little Ribbon of Blue’ Perky Stuart, “What an Old Man Said”....Grace Sheely. When We Are Old Enough to Bradley Seward. Albert Moore. Minnie Riley. .Harney Moore. Haye Signed the Pledge” e Reformed Drunkard” Riley. Recitation.... ...... Jennie Whitney. At the close of this programme Mr. C. L. Boyer was called forward and spoke on the importance of organizing the young and pledging them to total absti- nence. He showed that it was much better to help the children to form good habits than to try to reform them when they had grown to men and women and spent years in dissipation. At the close of the meeting a number joined the army by signing the pledge. ol A Colored Statesman. Ex-Senatsr Blanche K. Bruce, lately register of the treasury--the colored statesman—passed through Omaha yesterday en route for Sioux City. While at the depot he was called upon by a del- x-gmiou of colored citizens consisting of William H.and T. I. Vindgar, E. R. Overall and Henry Scroggins. Mr,Bruce expressed himself as much pleased with what he had seen of Omaha, as well as surprised by the evidences of its remark- able growth and prosperity. i “Brown's Bronchial Troches," are ar. effectual Cough Remedy.

Sunday might he was caught rying to sell a lot of soap and brushes stolen from & drug store on South Thir- teenth strect, which was burned down a tfew weecks ago. McKinney acknowledges having stolen the goods, and promuses to plead guilty to a charge of petit laiceny. In 1884 Adam Westfallt a wealthy ninety-year-old farmer ot Kimmundy, 111, married a pretty nineteen-year-old girl. Naturall, they didn't agree, and » constant guarrel followed, which ceased only a few days ago when they were di- vorced. The young woman had another man waiting for her, though E. W. Smith, who, just as soon as the divorce was recorded and a copy made, married her. Asheisa little younger than she they may get along. e This remarkable story comes from False Creek, British Columbia, where it is said that a white man carried a keg of whisky to an Indian camp, hoping tosell it at an advantage to the simple chril- dren of the forest. But urpnrenu they were prohibition red men, for they bound the man, forced him to sit on the keg three days and three nights, and then sent him home, first knocking in the heads of the keg and letting the good liquor soak into the ground. —_—— 1t is & Curioés Fact That the body is now more euscentible to benefit from ‘medicine than at any other season. Hence the importance of taking Hood's Sarsaparilia now, when it will do you the most good. It is really wonder- ful for purifying and enriching the blood, cnntinx]lln appetite_and giving tone to the whole systom. Be sure to get Hood's Sarsaparilla, which is peculiar to itself. e e Two little boys wen*. skating the other day on a field ~f ice that had grounded in a cove near Pictou, N. 8. Rising tide aud a change of wind released the 1ce, and when the boys noticed this they were some distance from shore. |The eller, aged 11, got on a small cake of ice, and his' little brother gave him a shove that carried him into shallow water, so that he could wade ashore. Then the younger lad tried to swim to land, but went down after making a few feeble strokes, GOOD STUDENTS, The Hartman School Roll of Honor For Febraary.

ELLEN M. Warrk, Principal, g i Russell Sage is a well-known operator in Wall street, who _is anra]]y coneidered as ‘‘up to snuff.” Hence, it may have been quite natural that a countryman who reads the papers recently called at his oftice and asked for a package of Dr. Sage's Ca tarrh Remedy. He discovered his mis take, but he made no mistake in the ar ticle called for. This Remedy, when ap plied with Dr, Pierce’s “Nasal Douche,’, will surely and rapidly eradicate the ted case ot catarrh, with ant and- dangerous accom- Stray Leaves From a Reporter's Note Book. Omaha can boast of superiority in many directions over any other city in the west. Among other things it can brag of having the cheekiest youth west of the Mississippi river. His name is Will Spotts, he is about nineteen years of age and he works in a local real estate office. The following anecdote will illustrate his superb ‘‘nerve.” When Madame Patti was here, Will made up his mind that he wanted to hear her sing. He had no spare money, to be sure. But to a youth built as he was, that cut absolutely no figure in the case. He sat down and wrote to the diva as fol- lows: *Dear Adelina Patti: Madame, I am the Dhttle train boy that sold you sum perfume 2 yrs ago on the train, I wood luv dearly to here you sing, but havent eny muny. Cood you send me a kupple of complementaries? WiLL Srovrs.”! That evening’s mail brought him two two dollar tickets, endorsed in Madame Patti’s handwriting. Spotts was su- premely happy. Being something of a speculator, Spotts made up his mind to make a few cents out of the transaction. He used one ticket himselt. The other? It was sold to a friend for two dollars. And thus did Spotts hear Patti sing without its costing him a cent—and came out with a profit of two silver s‘llwkuln besides. »*s The police lads are getting their decoy ducks out preparatory to the spring shoot.

I gotup and looked over the bushes and there was Martin Fahey, who lives u[t) there, taking slow aim with his musket at my decoys. I yelled at him and he lowered his fun and joined me.

A citizen who is deaf was up in the hay mow the other day, and his $200 horse was beneath him in'the stabie, Two strangers drove up with a plug, and after much yelling made him hear, and ssked bim if he'd swap horses. He said *‘No," and went on with his work. When he got down he found that his horse had gone, and the plug was in the stall. ieerer yet, he hasn't been able to get the slightest clue to the men. Five years ago a Waterville, N Y., carpenter, a very profane man, being very angry at a workman, endeavored to swear at him. To his horror he was speechless, and remained so. This not only had an excellent effect on the mor- als of the town, but on those of the car- penter himself, who ,10“‘0" the church. About a year ago, being in a towering passion, he forgot that he was speechless and started to swear. He succeeded ad- mirably to his own utter amazement. Since then he has used his voice wilhout ditficulty, but doesn't swear. HEARTLESS CRUELTY it is to delude a poor sufferer into the belief that some worthless liniment will cure rheumatism and neuralgia, Honesty is the best policy in the manufacture of proprie- tary articles as in all other matters, and the fact that the proprietors of Athlophoros have never claimed for it even all its mer- its would warrant has not a little to do with its wonderful popularity, and the thousands of grateful testimonials received by them show that their policy has been wise as well as right. Experience has amply-demonstrated that mere outward applications are worthless. The disease has its seat in the blood and any remedy to be kuccessiul must deal with the obstructive acid which poisons and inflames it. Athlophoros acts on the blood, muscles and joints directly, It takes the poison out of the blood and carries it out of the sys- tem; it invigorates the action of the muscles and limbers the stilfness of the joints. It reaches the liver and kidneys, cleansing them from irritating substances, and if fol- lowed up after the rheumatic conditions cease, it will restore these organs to regu- larity and henith. Dr. W. D. Bryant, Cainsville, Mo.,says: ‘T bought a bottle of Athlophoros for a lady. She had not taken all the bottle be= fore she was so far restored as to resume her household duties, She had been con- fined to her bed for three weeks, unable to turn herself. The disease was inflamma- tory rheumatism, She has not had a re, currence of it since. Athlophoros is all that is claimed for it." E. Moore, Stahl, Mo, says, “Four bot- tles of Athlophoros cured me of rheuma- tism two years age, and I have not felta pain or ache since.” Every druggist should keep Athlopho- ros and Allfiuphnro!
