M. ahe Go-As-You-Please. When the clock on the stage at the Xposition building pointed to 12 o’clock last night J. C. Crawford, score-keeper wnd judge ot the six-day go-as-you-please pedestrian contest, announced that the Mmatch was to begin, He designated the contestants by the following numbers, Which were to be worn, placarded, for a few hours: Frank Hart, New York, No. 1. W. A, Smith, Colorado, No 2, Dan O'Leary, Chicago, No. 3. F. J. Brezee, Omaha, No. 4, J. 8. Herriman, St. Louis, No. 5 George E. Huffman, llcl‘lwood, Neb., 0. 6. W. A. Gregg, Omaha, No. 7. P. Rockbood, Omaha, No. 8, J. Rodney, (unknown), Omaha, No. 9. Fred Cunningham, Kansas City, No. 10, At 12:10 the word go was given and the en were off. Hart lead, Brezee next, nd Herriman next. The others bunch- ed for a while and then they gradually strung out, The track.is of sawdust, five feet wide, 10 laps to the mile, An audience of 500, including many adies, witnessed the start. ‘The Musical Union orchestra furnished music from ©:30 o'clock until 12, when the pedestrian eontest began, The stage is occupied by the scorers ho both keep tally sheets and a large g[ncklmnrnl tally. In the center of the all is a book-makers’ stund. C. L. Schriver,the manager of the event, as provided very comfortable accom- odations for the men in the way of dressing rooms.

For {iockbood, Mrs, Rockbood and n. For Herriman, A. R. Jones, For Hart, W. . Mabin, John Dixon eand Sammy Keyes. The characteristics of the pedestrians ere worth watching during the first our. The easicsttrayelers were O'Leary, ith his wonderful clock-work walk; Hart, with his free and steady lope; Br ee, showing a remarkably easy run; dregg, ~with his Indian_ courier Bpace-kiling stride, and Herriman, with a run and walk alternating, which A {grhofle no picnic for anyone who tried keep pace with him. O’Leary was frequently cheered and #Hart wus warmly applauded, by the col- Ered people especially, Brezee and ¢ Gregg were ahead at 1a. m, Hart and O'Leary have very simple uarters, neither having anything in eir dressing rooms to show that the; ntended to rest. Brezee and Gregg botl ave comfortable beds into which they can drop for a few minutes' or hours’ snooze. It is understood that Hart and O'Leary haye agreed upon remaining n the track 40 hours withoutrest. There 8 not much harmony, however, between . Yhe trainers, and this may be only specu- ative. Hart’s custom is to keep at it 88 40 hours; rest six hours; resume for 20 hours; and rest thereafter 4 hours for each day.

The turn fest of the Missouri valley furn bezirk will this year be held in To- weka. It will be attended by a number of vereins from the principal cities along ghe river. In this meeting of athletes mmore interest 18 this year centered than i Jn any year since the organization of the . Ybezirk. This is mainly due to the rivairy engendered between the cities compos- fng the bezirk, and this rivalry 18 in great degree due to the remarkable success Which last year attended the Omaha yerein at St. Joe. It will be remembered that ,ur buiu won nearly all the vrizes nd some of them as mauny as four and Eve individual distinctions. Besides hey were accompanied by some pf the most influentinl and” repre- pontative German citizens, all of whom rejoiced in the success of the home verein d Jeft nothing undone in the way of ril:nnllty to keep the name of Omaha be- ore the people. As a consequence, the elegation from this city was talked of ru over the city, more especially because in connection with these it had also with them the finest band in the meeting, that of the Second infantry of Fort Omaha. This year the verein is in better condi- tion than it was o year ago, while at the me time the devotion ractice that other clubs have shown leads people pelieve that the success of our young will not be achieved without™ con- siderable rivalry. The home verein, owever, anticipates the struggle, and there be a posswbility of win- ning thefl will certainly " win, This ‘was well illustrated by the magnificent work which they did ‘in their entertain- ment in the opera house on Friday last. The trip to 'l‘ogeks._howuvar. will be pore exponsive than it was Iast year. '* The inter-state law has destroyed some of the privileges which were then yed. One of these was the ability to take a band with them, which it 1s feared ust this year be abandoned. Neverthe- uu. the boys will be grateful for what- ever assistance they may receive. Already about forty-four leading German oitizens have signified their willingness b ;‘nummplny e verein, which will 3 ve bere on Tuesday next.

OMAHA, Neb,, June 5.—To the Editor of the Beg: The manner in which the railways are obstructing the streets of the eity is an outrage upon the rights of the citizens, and a disgrace to the fair name of Omaha 1n the eyes of visitors. The *‘Cable Line” company, for instance, 18 obstructing Dodge street for four an five squares so as to make it wholly im- passable, in several places the crossin, even being closed, and the company is entirely without any rights to the public streets, Contractors put up signs on streets that they are ‘‘closed by order of the council,” and keep them closed at their own “sweet wills.” It is perfectly feasible for raillways to be built and streets to be paved without obstructing traflic, and those in authority should see to it that those cnun{(cd on the city streets, especinlly interlopers, should do their work with the least "possible incon- venience to the public. Kansas City and Minneapolis are doing as much street work and railway work as Umaha, but in neither one are the streets allowed to be obstructed by the work. VOTER. THE SCHOOL ELECTION.

Two tramps entered the house of Mrs. Shipley, who resides on a farm above Florence, at 4 o’clock yesterday morning for the purpose of robbery. A watch dog attacked one, but the man brained the faithful animal with a club. Mrs. Shipley, & women sbout 45 years of age, struck the other ruffian with a chair and knocked him down; but the one who had laid out the dog, and who i8 described as a powerful man. wrested the chair from her and then both beat her until she was insensible. The; did not dare to remain to ramsac the house, but fled in the dawn As soon as the injured woman recovered she attracted the attention of the Xcople living 1n a neighboring house, and they went to her assistance. The information brought to the city concerning the affair was mengre, but it was stated by the messenger that Mrs. Shipley’s injuries were serious, 1f not fatal e AMUSEMENTS. METZ' GARDEN. The popularity of this garden seems to be increasing with the growth of the city and the advance of the season, Each succeeding Sunday performance brings out an attendance " larger than the pre- ceding one. This was exemplified by the audience last evening, which filled the garden and laughed with extreme heartiness over the events of the two funny plays, ‘Der Hauschlussel” and “Eine Ueberraschung,” which were ex- cellently produced by the German comedy company. A ball followed the performance andylasted until midnight, Salvation Workers From Omaha. Knox Boude and Charles Smith, for- merly in the local Y. M. C.

They were among the number of Salva- tionists who were arrested and tried here some time ago on the charge of disturb- ing the peace. After being released, Mr. Bonde went to Denver and Mr. Smith to Lawrence, Kan. —— - Cottage colors ready for use in new and desirable shades.

The success with which Theodore Hakr has lately substitated paste for gems Iin numerous New York families, where he was employed as a putler, has set half of fashionable Philadel- phia by the ears, and there was a rush to the Jewelers yesterday by ladies who were anxious to find out whether their glittering ornaments were genuine stones or only carbon or paste imitations. There were few diamond ex- perts in the city who were not sought out and asked:to pass upon the genuineness of stones which their female owners feared had been tampered with. i{appily no cases in ‘which there is reason to suspact that a theft had been committed have been reported. ‘The jewelers can readily detect whather a setting has been tampered with or not. Some gems, however, which their fond own- ers supposed to be of the first water were found to be very ordinary and cheap dia- mwonds, and some for which large amounts had been paid were pronounced by the ex- pert to be mere brilllants, not much better than paste Imitations, 1n these cases, how- ever, the trouble has not been with a_skillful and daring servant, but with the credulity of the owners, who had been cleverly swindled in the purchase, 1n the case of butler, Hahr, ‘in New York, ol ursday, several other victims turned up, and it was found that his operations had ‘been extensive. He was held for trial. v —— For fear of loosing a day's work, many persons put off taking physic until Sat- urday.

Immense Wealth Which Nebrrskans are Winning From Them. Hor SeriNgs, Ark., May 28.—{Corre- spondence of the BEg.]—It has been some time since we have sent you any news from Arkansas, and, believing that many of your readers in the city of Omaha and in the state of Nebraska, besldes other states and territories where the Bre so readily finds its way, are more or less in- terested in mining enterprises, I venture a brief communication from the land of the tick, the chigger and big prospects. The little band of Nebraska men who have been stickfng so tenaciously to this country with a firm belief in its mineral wealth, is now beginning to reap the re- ward of perseverance. Time and again have so - called assayers reported ‘‘no trace of metal and abso- lutely valueless,” on Arkansas ores sent them for treatment. Fortunately there were among the list of assayers, metallengists, chemists and geologists, a few possessing originality and common sense enough to treat ores by methods different from those of their grandfathers, who cven dared to deviate from written formulas and receipts laid down in the books, and to these advanced thinkers and scholars, together with the “‘sand” of a few “fanatics, cranks, schemers, and fools™ Arkunsas is indebted for the pres- entrapid development of her vast min- eral resourses, centering in the lively, rushing mining camps adjacent to Hot Springs. Those who have seen the wild rush of miners, lonving half a head of water in their sluice oxes, grabbing pick, pans and shovel, with a blan- ket —and two days grub, and joning tho mad stampede for newly-dis- covered diggings, will best understand tne feelings of men when the prospect of great and sudden wealth completely ab- sorbs the rushing crowds of prospectors for gold. Snch a condition of thicgs is now being realized to some extent iu the earnest search for vacant territory and corner lots at Bear City and Crystal Springs. These places are each putting on metropolitan airs, and the good- natured rivairy between the two caus: healthy competition and stimulates a worthy enterprise. A large force of car- penters, millwrights and laborers are om- ployed 'in erecting buildings, placing the machinery for the new stamp nill for the Lost Louisiana Mining company. At the five saw-mills there is a continuous rush for lumbe There is heard the steady pounding of the old stamp mill, the ring of many anvils, the sound of the numerous saws and hammers necessary to rapid build- ing un all sides, the occasional dull thud of exploding dynamite from the sur- rounding mines, Many companies are preparing to furnish ore for the mam- moth smelter erected by Colonel Moflet at Crystal Springs, which will have a capacity of 1,000 tons a day. The Louisiana ~ company have already 1,000 tons of ore on their dump, two tons of which was recently treated by the improved Hartsfeldt's smelter at New- port, Ky., with a result of 854 to the ton m gold and silver. Professor Samuel Aughey, superintendent of the company, with its president and other mem- bers were present and witnessed the entire andiing and reduction of the ore. A previous mill run by the Electro-Amalgamation Works at Denver, Col,, gave a report of 34 in gold and 14 7-10 ounces in silver per ton. These satisfactory results have caused the direc- tors to make a contract with Colonel Moffet to reduce to bullion at least 500 tons of the ore already mined, and it will be immediately hauled to the smelter and treated within sixty days according to contract. The run will' probably com- mence about July 4. As the new stamp mill will be completed about the same time, the camps anticipate a glorious celebration,—and that reminds me to give you a cordial invitation to celebrate with us. We promise you a front seat on the platform, a good dinner of roast ox, a sight of gold and silver brick, and Ar- kansas bullion produced before your eyes. C. C. CHAPIN, A Promising Town. OARDALE, Neb.,May 80.—(Correspond- ence of the BEk.|—This finely situated town of 800 to 1,000 people 1s on the Fre- mont, Elkhorn & Missouri Valley rail- road, nesr the center of Antelope county, one of the best farming counties in the state. It is also the western terminus of the Scribner branch of the same road. The railroad improvements consequent upon the building of this new line con- sist, in part, of engine house and repair shop, coal sheds, water tank, extensive sidetracks, ete. Two new banks in addi- tion to the one already here attest the contidence of capitahists in the future of the town. Oakdale seminary, a commodious building under process of construction under the auspices of the Oakdale Pres- bytery, will greatly enhance the educu- tional facilitles in this loeality in the near future, One of the most apparent needs of the town at the present time is a roller mill. There are two fine water powers on Cedar creek within the corporation lim- its. One of these is improved and fur- nishes power for running a burr mill, which is kept constantly busy, mostly in grinding feed. The other could beim- proved at a comparatively small expens and with a roller mill of modern sty] would undoubtedly prove a good invest- ment. The question of waterworks is being agitated and will probably take definite shape soon, ELKIORN, Tekamah's Boom. TERAMAH, Neb., May 80. — [Corre- spondence of the Ber.]—Tekamah is forty-three miles north of Omaha on Te- kamah creek, cu= of the finest locations for a town in tho west, with a population of about 2,000 good looking women and girls and the balance as homely men as you ever saw. But they have a little of scads in the pocket and propose to raise Tekamah out from the nap she has been taking for the last two years. In the first place we have well graded and well lo- cated streets, good side walks, pure water, not a faloon in town, not even bitters for sale. The new improvements this year are a new machine shop and planing mill; a new roller floaring mill, with all late im- provements; the best canning factory in the state, which has doubled its capacity this year. and will run day and night on Eoun, beans, corn, tomatoes and straw- erries, employing 150 hands; a new creamery, costing 85,000, and the stock all taken mn less than a half a day. Then we have the lnrgle_lt hennery west of the Mississippi. here are twenty acres {u pens and buildings. It will be heated by steam in the winter, using n- cubators and all the latest improvements to take the care of eggs from 1,500 cack- lers. Then we are to havea $12,000 water works, which will be a great beneiit to the city, as we have no protec- tion from fire whatever. We have three good hotels, four churches, two large school buldings, and almost all kinds of societies except the Salvation army, ’ The Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha railroad will put up & handsome nger depot here soon—somethin, rhn is jnuch needed—and will also buil about one mile more of side track. The big ditch that cost :ao.sno will bo widened twelve feet, which will make 500 farms that are now of no use, and as it is on the cast side of Tekamab all the venefit of the improvéd bottom will be for Tekamah. With all these improvements how can Tekamah help but have a boom? Helps For Hpldrege. Hovoreae, Neb, June 1.—[Corre- spondence of the Brs.]—Holdrege is a name with which Omaha people are well acquainted, and you can rest assured that when that name ’ was given to the town, which the B. & M. company located in Phelps, the banner county of Nebraska, it meant a great deal for that town. Your correspondent has always contended for this, and trom the day of its birth. Qur city has shown what'is in & name. Not yet four years old, Holdrege ranks to-day with Hastings, Kearney, Red Clond ‘and McCook. From recent developments, however, it is patent to every observing mind that Holdrege is to outrank all her rivals_in importance, population and wealth, For the past two weeks your reporter has been aware that movements were on fout which were of vast importance to Holdrege, but the facts never came to the surface until within the past forty-cight hours, and now it shines forth and has electrified our en- tiro community. The B. & M. company has purchased a large body of land just a mile west of the city limits and have already surveyed grounds for shops, which will be the largest 1n the west, and will duplicate the shops in Towa. The material is also on the ground for a round house which will be Jocated about four blocks west of the depot. ‘The shops will om‘)loy 3,000 men permanently. The Union Pacific has already surveyed from Kearney to Holdrege and ‘the Northwestern will be extended from Hastings, southwest, and Holdrege will bid high for that road. Capitalists from a distance_continue to arrive and the boom is just begun. Thousands upon thousands of mongy has changed hands in the past forty-eight hours. ——in Waylaid the Wrong Couple. Mestenis, June 5—Near Fulton, Tenn., last night, a negro named Sam Hayes shot and killed John Strickland and his wife. Hayes was laying In wait for his mistress and rival, and in the darkuecss mistook the Stricklands for them. —_— “Gentle as the Breeze of Evening.

One of them was named Dublin, another Suarley, and two others Port and Starboard, respectively, one curling his tail to the right, the other to the left. \Wo extract an account of one of Starboard's characteristic performances, which il lustrates once more the familiar truth that dogs have a good deal of human nature about them. One day the wiole whole ship’s company were witness to the means he employed to steal a bone which Joe had given to one of the other dogs, Tltis dog was rather small and somewhat timid, unless Dublin--her nat- ural protector--was the to take her part; but Starboard knew that it he tried to take the bone by force. Joe would interfere in an unpleasant manner with a whip. So he went to her with a smiling face and a wagging tail, and leaning against her, began to push her aside in the most friendly way possible. She, not quite un- derstanding this maneuver, let go the bone and began snapping and growling in a very threatening manner. fi'hiq was what Starboard bad expected, apps ently, for he instantly lay down on the treasure and looked about in an uncon- scious and abstracted manner, as though nothing was farther from his thoughts than the bone. The other dog snifted around a little, evidently not understand- ing the trick, and then walked away, growling in high dungeon. arboard then diwnv«-rw“. to his great astonish- ment that he was lying on a bone, and proceeded to pick 1t with a hypocritical assumption of unconsciousness that must have been extremely oftensiye to Snarley, who had been an intcrested spectator of the procecding and expressed his con- tempt for such tricks by a growl. Tray, The Widow's Dog Jack. ipt: Thereis a dog that lives much nearer Boston—in one of our nearest suburbs, in fact—that proves a great solace to a widow to whom he does not belong. Dogs are usually given to confining the benefits of their care to their own household, but this one, récog- nized the unprotected state of the widow, who lives alone, is willing to extend his watchful ices to her houschold, She 1€ a little afraid of the visits of the tramps who frequently pass her house on the wuy to Boston. The farmer who owns the dog, therefore, when he sees a suspi- cious character coming up the road says to the dog: *‘Jack, go over to Mrs. H.’s and sit on her a till the tramp gots by;" whereupon the dog—a large St. Ber- nard—flies over to Mrs. H.'s, posts him self at the door, and, if the tramp comes up the valk, steps forward and growls unpleasantly at him. As the dog 18 a very big one, and rather forbidding in appearance, though he has never been known to bite any one, the tramp, in ninety-nine cases out of a. hundred, re- members that it is getting late, and that he hasn’t any time to fool away along the road. When he is well out of sight the dog promptly returns home, 'h\o dog carries his gallantry to the same lady to such an extent that when she is visiting his master’s house of an evening he always accompanies her home, taking her to the very door of tie house. A Dog That Upset a Thicf. Newark (N. J.) News: An intelligent dog owned by Patrolman Toner, of the Third precinct, Jersey City, assisted him to capture a burglar the other night. While the oflicer was patrolling Palisade avenue he noticed three men, who _ran away as he approached. The officer gave chase, and so did the dog. The ani- mal quickly overhauled tne fugitives, and by running between the man’s legs upset him. This was repeated as the maun regained his feet, and the oflicer was thus enabled to capture him. Granddaughter of the Queen's Dog. Pall Mall Gazette: A messenger from Windsor castle arrived the other day at Tyninghame house, the residence of Lord Haddington, with a beautiful black- and-tan collie, as a present from the queen to his lordship. The coliie is a granddaughter of her majesty's favorite old dog *‘Noble,” which she received from the Duchess-Dowager of Roxiburgh sixteen years ago, and which isstill alive. The earl is making rapid improvement toward recovery from his recent accident m the hunting lield, and 13 now able to take outdoor exercises. A Dog That Rang the Farm Bell, Pittsburg Commercial Gazette: A dog belonging to John Davidson of New- castle, Pa., found it too cold nights out doors, so at 11 oclock one night he puiled the rope that rang the farm bell, The houschold was alarmed, but the cause of the ringing was soon apparent, The dog continued his exere at the same hour until he was made cowmfort- able in the house every night.
