One of the most daring attempts at burglary that has been known in the city was made iast night about 9 o'clock at St. Philomena’s eathedral on Ninth street, During the progress of the ser- vices in the church, tne sexton, James Muleahey, stepped inside the sacristy in discharge of bis duties and was aston- ished to find a burglar at work remov- ing the golden and silver chalices from the vaul which they are kept. M. Mulcahe ized him by the coat collar and was just going to call for help when a revolver wag placed against his head and he was told tha* he would be killed if he saidl a word, In hiy alarm he re- leased his hold and the burglar aisap- peared thrcugh the open window by which he hud g .ined access to the apart- ment. Mr. Muleahey at once lg:\vv the alarm and Deteetive Ormsby, of the po- lice force, was detailed on the case. From the sexton’s description Ormsby spotted Charles Wilson, o weil known crac man, and wentatter him, He found his man in Nick Wallace's notorious den on Douglas street and placed him unde rest. On his ru'rsun was found a chi which he had used in prying up the window through which he had effected an entrance into the church, W course, denied his guilt, bat th identifies him and says there ¢ question about his being the son, it will be remembered, is the crook who was eaught by Captain Cormick two months ago while hiding tools under the sidewalk on street.

WILL DODGE GET THE CABLE, Property Owners Say Ycs—Cable Folks Answer Evasively. The direclors of the Omuha ble Tramway company spent the afternoon yesterday in & business session at the oftice of the Union Loan and Trust com- pan, Reports that began to issue from the place of meeting carly in the session set the real estate men of the city all agog, and at work upon deals that prom- ised a speedy return of millions, Every man who owned property on Dodge street from Ninth to Thirty-sixth street was approached by the enterprising real tate agents and Jasked to place a price upon his property whether it was on the market or not The report gained currency and was ap- parently reasonably well confirmed that the company had decided to locate one of their lines on Dodge street from Ninth street west. It was announced that the company would begin delivering material to-day for the construction of the Dodge street line west from Ninth street to Twentieth, It was also currently re- ported that a line will be built on Harney street to the western and southwestern portion of the c Members of the cable r, deny that any decision has been ar- Mr. L.

The members of the Salyation Army, who were arrested on Wednesday night for parading the streets in violation of a resolution adopted by the council pro- hibiting the same, were released by Judge Stenberg yesterday, on thelr own gnizances, to appear for trial on [ucsday next.

On a yea and nay vote the motion was lost and the matter taken ub for discussion. Coun- cilman Ford didn't want the council to back down from their position. 'I'd have a poorer openyin av the immount av common sinse there is in this council if they back down. Let thim peaplo git into'a room with their pratehin’ and sal- vashionism and not in’ howlin’ nooshunces of thimselves batin their tim- burcens and poundin’ the dhrums.” Mr. Kaspar started a laugh by stating that he had !J‘m us much religion as any member of the Sulvation Ariny. Ho makes his prayers in private, however, and does not go out 1 the stroets and cause runaways in the performance of his devotional exercises. He thought the council ought to stand by their former action at least until the case against the salvationists is decided in the coy Mr. Goodman thought the salvationi Were 1o more of a nuis: an the medicine men and other who in- fest the street corners, Mr. Lee didn't think the council should hurry about the matter as they ucceeded in getting the case before he courts and made a motion which was adopted, referring the matter to the com- wmittee on police for one week.

These young la- dies had been baptized the previous evening in the cathedral, Dean Gardner 1sting in the vice. The confirma- tion service was impressive. The bishop an address, using as a text the se 8: *‘So will 1 al- unto Thy name, that [ ay daily perform my vows.” The at- tendance was quite large. The young ladies were tastefully attired and en- tered into the spirit ot the impressive oc- casion with duly solemn earnestness. Blaze at South Omaha, ructive fire occured at the stock yesterday afternoon. It broke out 30 o'clock, in the stosk yards harn, which is local at tho southeast corner of the yards, at the side of the switch track. It is supposed that a B. & M. engine left a kindling spark which was fuuned intc a flame and rapidly grew to a destructive blaze. The inflammable material of which the barn was constrae- ted and the still more intlammable con- tents made so hot afire that the bucket brigade, although valiantly fighting it, were unable to accomplish anything, except to prevent a more disastrous con- flagration, The fire department from this city respondoed as quickly as possible, arriving there in quart hour, and rendered eflicient assistanee. ‘The barn, a largoe and com atively new structure, was destroyed, with 400 tons of hay and 4,000 bushels of corn. The track scales, dead hog sc: s 1 pens east of seale house No. 1, were also burned. The scale house was saved with dillicalty, The loss is estima- ted at $15,000. A Man Wiin Two Mouths. Otto Depi Louis, is at present tho only individual in Omaha with twp mouths, There many people in Omaha who haye mouth enough tor two, but Otto claims the belt as the actual poss- essov of two orifices through which he emits voenl sounds, Some time ago he was struck by a falling derrick and his throat was injured so that his windpipe closed avits upper end. A skilful sur- gical operation placed a silver tube in the breath pipe and he was saved from actnally dying for of air. Sub- sequently, “the orifice to his mouth and nostrils opened again, and now Otto can emit the fumes of his lust drink into the face ot an appreciative but disgusted companion from two holes at the same time. He can also play a _mouth organ either way. Itis extremely diflicult to appreciato to what extraordinary uses Mr. Depfor could not put his peculiar owers. AS u permanent police whistle ho could be a screeching success. He could also drain a schooner of beer “without taking breath” as most people are obliged to to take it, because while the amber liguid was gently and contin- uously gurgling down one avenue, the possessor of this silver tube breathing ap- paratus would be calmly indulging in his regular respirations, here are great possibulitics in store for Mr. Depfor, Fearon & Culfl,‘c.o;;filh)n merchants, have s01d out to O, W.

THE CITY A THE WARDS, The Council Define tho Limits of Both The couneil last night passed the or- dinance defining the corporate limits of the city. The only important change from the orignal plan, a map of which has been published 1 these columns, is in cutting off a portion from the western portion of the city and extending the north line to the Florence town line. The western boundary, north of Leavenworth street now runs on Vista strect, east of the Catholie cemetery, just west of Wal- nut Hill and east of Brighton to the southern line of the cor te limits ot Florenc tended. T hern bound ary remains at I° stree uth Omaha and the eastern boundary remains un- changed. The amended ordinance defining the ward boundaries was also introduced and passed to its second reading. The only change of note made 1n the original plat of the redistricted wards is the straightening of the irregular eastern boundary of the Fourth ward. The east- ern line of this ward will be‘l'wenty- seventh street from Chicago to Farnam.

R AH SAY AND AH THERE. A Chinese Name That Antedates the American Gag. Al Say, the big boss Chinaman of the district reached by the Union Pacific, was in the city yesterday and last even- ing went west. He accompanied by his secretary, Ah There. The statement of the gentleman who said t there was nothing new under the sun, is herein verified. Ah There is about thirty years old and probably has in his genealogical line many ancestors who bore the same name. Thus 1t is that would-be original America is again put to shame by the traditions of the heathen Chine Al Say lives at Evanston, Wyoming, anl is the proud father of four American born boys and two girls, His wife 18 a very rotty —after the Chinese style—Monga- ian woman and Ah Say made a good pick when he wentback to the celestial land some eighteen years ago and secured her, Ah Say isn't pretty, but he is brainy and rich, and he controis 3,000 or 4,000 Chi men with a figurative rod of 1ron which is only surpassed by the extraordinar) authority sed over them by tho companies. He figured conspicuously connection with the ‘“Lockee Splingee’’ —or Rock Springs, in United States lan- guage—riot on September 2, 1885, He i the “‘bossce” to whom all of the China- men in the Union Pacific coal mines and on the railroad scctions between here and Ogden look for mstructions, and in that critical time they sought his advice with an unanimons spontanic! that called out all his res mental powers. He manifested his ability, how- ever, in a marked way, commanding the Chinese.to keep away from the mines until they were offered military proteet- jon. When the authority of the regular troops was established Ah Say told the still territied coolies, who had massed in Evanston, to go back. Thers, probably, wagen't one of them who wouldn’t ha preferred to commit hari-kari to return ing to the scene of the massacree of their companions, the destuction of thew houses—dJ house and all—and_their own precipitate rout; but Ah Say issued the mandate, on pieces of red paper with a few hieroglyphics, and they bundled into the box cars and went back like s many obedient pack mules, When it comes to gilt-edge hhmllnhll'il obedience the heathen Chince is just as peculiar as he is for his tvicks with pasteboard while wearing the smile which s child-like and bland, Al silk ay had with him, last evening, six ted celestials whom he is con- ducting _westward.

To-day at sundown the Jews through- out the world will begin, the celebration of the Fenst of Passover, ordained by Mioses nearly 3,500 ydars ago. Through all the trials and persecutions and temp tations that have beset and, sometimes, overcome that race inthis long lapse of time, this observance has ever held its place among them audy perhaps more than any other festival in the calendar, has contributed to the ‘preservation of their national identity for centuries, and of their principles of croed and worship even to this day, Cgnsidered simply from the point of view: 9f historical in- terest there is something almost sublime in the unwavering faltlt. and constancy with which the Jews have commemorated the exodus ot their fathers from Egyp- tian bonduge.
