‘. -« BECGING A BROTHER'S LIFE, Hoffman's Bister Trying To Save Him From the Halter. A VISIT TO THE GOVERNOR, Lincoln's Big Bullding Boom.—Paving Begun,—Omaha Knights of Pythias Incorporate.—~Good Orop Pros- pects,~Brief item [FROM THE BREE'S LINCOLY DUREAU.| Hoffman, the train wrecker, who lies in juil at Nobraska City awaiting execu- tion on the 22d of the month, has but a fow days left of earth, but efforts are being made in his behalf that the sen- tence be commuted from death to life im- prisonment, Yesterday Albert 8. Cole, of Nebraska City, attorney for Hoffman, accompanied by a sister of the con- demned man, visited Lincoln and in the afternoon were closeted with the gov- ernor going over the case in the hopes that the man’s life might be saved. The time for action in the supreme court has passed, and the only hope of Hoftman's relatives is that the governor may inter- fere and save him from the halter. WORK ON PAVING, The streets in the first paving district presenta busy scene already, although mot one-third of the men are at work now that will be reqiredwhen the guttering and laying of pavement commences. A large number of stone men are trimming and facing the granite for the curbs, and the machinery is nearly in place for cutting the blocks. The contractors have already on the ground over 100 carloads of cedar and the first of the coming week the citi- A zons will see the blocks going in place. 1t is stated that there will be an immense number of men employed on this work from the commencement to the close. BUILDING PROGRESS. A drive around the city will satisfy the most skoptical that Lincoln is building rapidly and many of the buildings are very fine ones, The new H. T. Clarke drug company bulldinfi will see all foun- dation work finished this week when the six-story walls will rise. ‘T'he bricklayers are at work on the third story of the cracker factory building on Eighth and streets, and work is moving rapidly on the fine city freight depot of the B. in thatimmediate locality. A gentleman who has made the count informs the BEx that there are over sixty brick business houses now in course of construction in thT immediate business center of Lin- coln. ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION of the Cnadron Loan and Building asso- ciation were filed with the secretary of state yesterday. Tho capital stock of the assoointion is $500,000, aivided in shares payable monthly as provided in such associutions, and the limit of the corpora- tion is fourteen years. W. W. Byington, E. E. Egan, J. Ross, F. B. Carley, Wm. Wilson, J. L. Paul and J. Loewenthal are the incorporators. Articles incorporating the Knights of Pythias_building association of Omaha were also filed with the secretary of state yesterday. The purpose of the corporation is the erection of a Pythian building and the capital stock is fixed at $200,000, the corporation to exist for ninety-nine years. James A, Brown, Henry Creighton, David Kautf- man, Milton E. Kerr, W. H. Bush, Harry Merriam and E. E. French are the incor- porators, DISTINGUISHED GUESTS. Seated upon the bright-flowered brus- sols that adorns the floor of the gov- ernor's oflice yesterday might have been seen Brave Chief and Double Tooth, two specimens of the Omaha tribe of Indians, who awaited an audience with the gov- ernor with the patience of an oflice- seeker. W hat their mission was they re- fused (o divulge to a common newspaper man, DFLINQUENT COUNTIE The state auditor finds that a good many counties in the state are delinquent in sending 1n the abstract of assessment for the year, the law ruqu'rmtz that the county oclerks shall forward these ab- stracts prior to July 10. This delay the auditor will attempt to mmud{ at once. ‘The delinauent counties are Box Butte, Buffalo, Butler, Brown, Chase, (?I:lly, Dawes, Douglas, Franklin, ":\fl. Holt, Knox, Logan, Nance, Red' Willow and Sherman. The county clerks in these counties should give the matter attention at once. JND TO THE DISTICT COURT, At noon yesterday the hearing of Lewis Benton, charged with assault with intent to kill on one Hilller, was_completed be- fore Judge Parsons, and Benton was held under $500 bonds to answer at the next term of the district cou Benton ‘was one of the striking switchmen, and Hillier wasa B, & M, brakeman 8- forred to the yards for temporary work, until new men could be secured to take the places of the strikers. During the night after he went on duty, Benton and three other striking switchmen visited the yards to see who were working in their places, and while there Benton struck Hillier over the head with a billy. Early Sunday morning Benton was found by the police under the bed in his room, and the trial has been protracted owing to some of the witnesses absenting themselves, especially a man named Wilson, who in testifying showed him- self an unwilling witness, as did many of the others. The trouble arose over Benton calling the new man a scab and like epithets. During the progress of the preliminary heurinfi a_large crowd was 1n attendance. Hillier's own testi- mony tended to show that the attack upon himself was premeditated. AT THE HOTELS. Among the arrivals at Lincoln yester- day from Nebraska points were noted the following: E. F. Warren, Nebraska Cit H. 0. B Wahoo; O. Trost, Pi ton; . Clarke and Fred W. Omaha; John Barsby, E. y d; 8. M. Barker, Silver ne and M. W. Cool- baugh, Omaha; W.J. Jones, 1. E. Doty and George H. Peebles, Day ty; B. ¥, Smith, Hastings, and C. R, Kickley, York, IN BRIEF. A cose was up for hearing yesterday in the police court in which a restaurant on P street was brought over the coals toa swer the charge of selling beer on Sun- dnx without heense and contrary to law. warrant is out for the arrest of a druggist in the village of Hickman, who is charged in the information with viol: ing the law governing druggists' rights in the sale of liquor. County politics are awakening and it is evident that there will be no lack of andidates when the time for nominations rolls round again. It is un- derstood that the B. & M. have several of the faithful whom they desire to reward, and the fine Italian hand of the corpora- tion may be expected at any time. Whatever may be the crop prospects from the section of the state lying west- ward, there certainly is no question but that Lancaster counly never had better &l;omlsu than at the present time. A cit- n whose business calls him often to the country precincts asserts that not in ten years have the farmers of this section had A better promise of corn than at the present time Messrs. S. M. Barker, president, and E. Mclntyre, chairman, of the board of managers of the state board of agricul- ture were in the city yesterday looking after some minor imurovements at the fair grounds. Viry little new work: will be required the present year, but a good wlortable addition will be made to the 4 flsh commission building, which Mr.May will appreciate in making his exhibit the present year, Secretary Furnas is forwarding to the lIeWIpl\rOl’l in the state complimentary tickets for the coming state fair. The tickets are the finest in the line of the en- graver’s art ever issued. Two farmers who became hoistrous and had a fighting match in a small way in the city, cluded the police and went homeward. A warrant, however, has been issued for one of them and he wiil 39 ct.“ed to answer for his riotous con- uct. A second ten cent circus and show has struck the city and isapparently startin out with a good run of custom an patronage. It is to remain in the city a week. On the 28th day of July the Funke opera house will be opened for the com- ing fall and winter season, and the open- ing entertainment will be no less than the first appearance of Mrs. Langtry in this city, who makes this date on her re- turn from California, The Havelry minstrels follow this opening entertain- ment on the 8th of August. Following the close of this Denver- Lincoln series of games on the home grounds Lincolu will have no more games until July 80, when the Kansas City Cow- Im{n arrive for atournament. The great point of interest in the home club’s south- ern tour will be the games at Topeka. bt iansitty Breaking Down and Bullding Up. ‘When a man breaks down in the mat- ter of physical strength, the question of his recovery dogandu in a great measure upon the length of time he allows to elapse before adopting medicinal means to recuperate it. A tonic, which a spoedy and powerful impulse to the pro- cess of digestion and assimilation, is the best auxiliary he can employ, and he should resort to it promptly. The most reliable dependence of the feeble, the aged and the nervous, has ever proved to be Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, an in- vigorant of national reputation and proven worth, commended by medical men of distinction, not only for building up a broken down system, but asa remedy for dyspepsia, constipation, liver complaint, fever and ague and Kidney trouble. ~While not claimed to bea Ennucuu. it is a most useful and compre- ensive househotd remedy. It is, mor- ever, eminently safe as well as affective. —— MRS. LANGTRY AMERICANIZED, The Jersey Lily Has Made a Home In ISan Francisco, San Francisco Alta: Mrs. L], 'l4nn‘ftry, the English actress, has established her abode at 1,220 Twenty-first street, where, according to current rumor, she will live for some months to come. She is_at pres- ent under engagement at the Baldwin theatre, but how the remainder of her residence in this city is to be occupied has not yet been divuiged. The house is an unpretentious two-story building,with & bay-window front and & small flower garden. A report relative to her pros- pective length of stay has gained cur- rency to the eflect that she will abide there long enough to acquire a legal resi- dence, and then make formal application for divorce from her husband who isnow in England. Gen. W. H. L. Barnes having been named as the counsel who had been retained to con- duct the proceedings, a query addressed to him elicited the information that Mra Langtry's agent, a Mr. Reynolds, had called at Barnes’ oifice three times, but had not succeeded in finding him in. “A short time ago,” said the general, I re- ceived a letter froma New York firm saying Mr. Reynolds would call and see me on business. Exactly what the busi- nessis I do not yet know. When he called yesterday for the thivd time and 1 was notin 1 felt sorry, 30 in the after- noon [ walked up to the Baldwin in hope of sceing him. He wasn’t there, but & reporter was, and he spoke to me about divorce matters generally. I told him acyone could geta divorce here after acquiring legal residence and mak- ng a proper showing. I do not know yet the nature of the business concern- mg[whiuh Mr. Reynolds called. So far as I know it has nothing to do with any divorce proposition.” Yesterday morn- ing, at her residence, Mrs, Langtry took the initial steps toward becoming a naturalized citizen of the United States, by renouncing all allegiance to the queen and declaring her 1ntention of be- coming a citizen of the United States. e s Saving the Lawyers. “The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers.” This is rather a_blood-thirsty proposition, which we modify by offering to cure this worthy class of people. Most of them suffer (in common with nearly all others of sedentary habits), from the in- Jjurious effects of dyspepsia, indigestion, piles, loss of appetite, ana other aillments caused by a constipated habit of the body. _Dr. Pierce's “Llensant_Purgative Pellets” eradicate all these disorders in promptly rcmuvm& the cause thereof, :ndli:dueo a rare degree of comfort and ealth. ————— Two Strange Animals Astray, Philadelphia Ledger, July 7: Robert 8. Brown, a farmer living at Penn’s Manor, in Bucks county, four miles south- east of Morrisville, has in his possession two animals which were captured on the highway in front of s house onMon- day morning. They were first seen swimming 1n Biles creek, on which Mr. Brown's farm 18 situated, and when they landed they were driven into his barn- ard. They have the general character- stics of the common cow, but are con- siderably larger than the average-sized cow, and have a slight hump above the shoulders, long horns pointing back- ward and curving upward, In general they correspond with the description given in a work on natural history of a species of buffalo found in India, Itis the supposition that the arimals escaped from n menagerie, though it was not known that any menagerie had passed through that part of the country re- cently. i e, 1t Had Gone, Wall Street News: He sat on a log on the bank of an Arkansas creek, when a traveler came along and saluted: ““(Good-day, mister.
