HIS TOP COAT. Hunsucker Contributes a Stranger. A tall, slender shabbily dressed man, with a seraggy growth of beard upon his face through which the breezes have been soughing for at least a month, and carry- ing a bamboo walking stick in one hund and a dark linen duster in the other, dropped in at Fred Hunsucker's saloon, 412 South Thirteenth street Wednesday afternoon, in much apparent haste. One would have thought from the stranger’s nervous impetuosity, that he was on his way to the stock exchange with a big tip. In a sort of superior condescending way ho asked: “Will you please allow me to lay my top-coat in here a short time until I run up to the Union Pacific hc:uh]umlu‘s and see about some freight carsy’ Hunsucker replied that Le wasn't run- ning a check room, but that he might fake his coat in the back room and leave it, if he was a mind to, he did not want 1t han ring in the saloon, The stranger stepped in the back room as directed, remaining there a moment or so; but vnn-r;_ving minus the coat, In the course of an hour the shabby teel business man returned, walked lhruugh the saloon, remarking that he'd take his coat, and stepping into the back room, came forth again with the gar ment, as Hunsucker naturally supposed, upon his arm. He floated out and nothing more was thought of the episode by Hunsucker un- til he came to close up at 12 o'clock, when he himself stepped into the afore: said back room to get his own coat;a nice, new, light gray cutawsa vhich he had hung'up there 1 the afternoon, as is his custom these ineinderating d. It may be imagined Mr. Hunsucker in- dulged in a choice lot of uxpletives, some of them much choicer than elegant,when he discovered that his bran new Benuy had flown, and in its stead, banging like n flug at half mast, wus the shabby gen- teel’s old faded duster, Mr. Hunsucker was mad, of course, and went home in his shirt sleeves. This morning he came down to the station and reported the case to Chief Seavey, and wants the man who stole his coat looked up if 1t costs more than his whole ward- robe is wurth. In the pock lost was his Mr, Ris to ot of the coat Hunsucker vings bank deposit book and his chi book on the First Na- tional, containing seve checks, the vn)m-ul of wluch. however, has been stopped. ARRE BRU Tussle With a Woman Beater. Yesterday morning word was sent to the police station that a man was attempting to kill a woman at the eorner of Twen tieth and Pierce streets. Oflicer Gilligan on Thirteenth street was informed of tiw matter by Otlicer Ormshy, while the pa trol was out on another call. When th latter returned Qilicor Qrmsby rode to scene, Jim O'Brien, the driver, waking the run in about four minutes, the best run. ever made by the wagon.

She toid him she had no beer, and he immed- iately seized her with wicked in- tent when she succeeded in ef- fecting her escape. Officer Gilli- gan arrived on the scene about the same time as the wagon, and Jensen was put into the patrol. As he landed on the floor he turned and harrowly missed kaLmF Officer Gilligan on the head. Both the oflicers then bestowed attention upon him, which was kept up until the wugon landed 1n the station, because during the ride he made frantic efforts to bite, seratch, bruise and escape from the oflicers, The Striking Painters. From present indications, it would ap- pear that the strike among the painters will erclong die a natural death. Out of the 300 men who struck there are only about fifty remaining in the city who are outof employment. ‘‘Yousee,” said Mr. Holden,the strikers' representa- tive to n BEE reporter, ‘‘'some of our men have left the city, and a great number are at work 1n l%c union shops or doing contracting work on their own account. For the most part the latter han not muech money to start in with, but we have been helping them out, I am'still negotiating with the master painters for a «vmonu-nl and will event- ually succeed, I think.’ A grand basket picnic and excursion to Calhoun will be given on Sunday next for the benefit of the strikers.

The contructors were unanimous on this point and as a number of the men are in favor of the uniform mine hours there will probably not be any ditheulty in adjusting matters on this basis, Shooting Accident, The danger of playing with firearms was evidenced at the United States sa- loon, South Omaha, when Mrs, Kunzel, wife of the proprietor, after getting into a playful souflle with James Formanek, her brother-in-law, about the possession of some money, picked up a revolver, and, pointing it at Formanek’s head. ullul the trigger.

The axe has fallen among our Boys’ and Childrens’ Clothing and s making havoc with the prices of some of them. Those who visited us during the past season must have noticed that since the enlargement ot our store, we carried in this line a muchlarger stock than formerly. Naturally, of such a big assortment, we have more left, especially of the better grades, and we are determined to close them all out before the opening of our new juvenile department, which next season will be on the second floor of our building A large line of Boys’ and Chil« drens’ suits of all sizes—some very fine goods and elegantly made—also alot of knee pants and long pants are marked down to one-half their HXTRX. A manufacturer who heard that we are doing a large business, and thought that we could dispose of most any quantity of goods, sent ug last week a big lot of strived summer coats—Mens’ and Boys'—with instructions to sell them for his account. We did not want to accept them, as the lot is too large and the season late, and told him so, but he wired us to dispose of them at any price we pleased, so we have des cided to mark them 15¢ APIECE.
