A CABLE LINE FOR LINCOLY. Material For Oonstructing Three Miles of Road Already Ordered. THE STREET RAILWAY BOOM. Bomethinz Abont the Handsome New Court House to Be Erccted In the Capital City—Other Items of Interest, [FROM THE BEE'S LINCOLN BURRAU. The new cable line is an assured fact, and work was practically commenced on 1t yesterday by graders who were at work on E street. The motor house has been located on that strect and grading work has been commenced in the vicinity of that location. The absorbing question as what streets their line will occupy in their route from the depot to E street is not yet decided, and the open question is being watched with eagerncss by prop- erty owners. The cable line company, through its representative who was re- cently in New York City, purchased ma- terial for three miles of track: Much of this material has been shipped, and a part of it is already on the grounds ready to be planted. With the motor road ! . , r b | " nnder construction in the north part of the city, with lines to the fair grounds and West Lincoln, and now with the cable line throwing dirt in the south part of the city, it looks as tho i coln had a boom in strect ear ¢ tion that meant business, the confidence the corpor: the city. It is expected that cable cars will be running before the snow flie: P THE NEW COURT HOU Lincoln people are encouraged by the nction of the county commissioners in N agrecing upon plans for a court house, in the fact that work must commence at #n carly any upon the building in this city, for the construction of which $200,- 000 1n bonds were yoted by the people of Lanecaster county. The plans accepted, those of E. E. Myer & Son, of Detroit, call for a very handsome and substantial building, the picture of which can be scen at the oflice of the county commis- pioners. The plans wera selected after careful consideration on the part of the county board and they are confident that they have been directed in their hine of choosing 1n the right direction. The building ealled for by the plans is to be 140x208 feet 1n size, 60 feet in heighth from ground to cornice, and to be sur- mounted with a dome and tower 140 feet in heighth. Litigants will be interested to know that the historical statue of Justice 18 not located on the pinnacle of the dome as in Omaha to be as far re- moved from the proceedings as possible, but on the Lincoln building the some- what venerable personage will occupy a position on the roof over the main entrance. By this arrangement jurors who arc confined in the upper ) chambers wrestling for a verdict, can. in the stilly night crawl out upon the roof and consult Justice at short range. . Among the multitude of provisions in the . rooms of the new building there 18 one that is something of a rture from former ways in the wild west. There will be especially arranged for the com- fort and convenience of the jurors, a Jury bedroom furnished with an_attend- ing bath room, so perfectly guarded and protected that the bather who enters will cave hope of escapo with his clothing, behind, " A detailed description of the building is turnished 1 the plans show- ing the size of the different rooms, the use for which cach is intended, the light, comfort and convenience of each, and the entire picture presents a building of which the cit) and county will undoubtedly feel proud. The city has a ‘“court house block centrally located upon which to build and the location is o sightly one. It need not cause any surprise if when the build- « ing is completed, it overshadows the Btate capitol that will cost over double the sum to be expended for the court house. zh 1 ——a —— TO ORG AR . Officers of the Uniform division Knights of Pythias from eight divisions iocated in the South Platte country were con- gregating at thi y yesterday for the wurpose of organizing a” regiment.

The recent activity of Omaha knights in organizing a regiment complete has had A stimulating cffect upon the uniform order, and mutters are evidently on the boom.

As Told by a Newspaper of Davenport Where Ho is Taking a Vacation, HIS AMAZING LEAP TO WEALTH. How He Made a Milllon Dollars in Four Years—A Very Interesting Narrative of a Pashing and Energetic Man. Davenport Gazette: ‘‘Heavens!—what aflyer! Whois thatt Why, it is C, &, Mayne, sure as I am here! A bLanker from Omnaha, a scribe and Davenport banker were in the latter's surry riding on the Locust street road, when a rig went past them like a streak, slowe dup a little ways ahead, and soon was away like a flash on the level road again, And when it passed the Omahan made the exelamation. It wasan opvor- tunity for the scribe, and he could not forgo it, for Mr. Mayae is a resident of Davenport for the summer. “Are you well acquainted with Mr, Mayne,” he asked. The Omahan re- plied that he was, and the scribe said: “Heis sucha young man in appear- auce to be as wealthy as he is reputed to be—how did he make his money? have capital to commence with?"

He bonght lots himself, a little down and sold them a neat profit. ‘The sccond y into BIG DEALS. negotiated for a picce of property, £ to pay £100,000 for it. ~ All the men in Omaha stared at him, wondering what he was about.

His name or business was not mentioned in these articles, but every one of them paid him a thousand per cent. No man living has done more for Omalh an he." “What has brought him to Davenport?', “Well, sir, I think the mun was WORKING HIMSELF TO DEATH —I know it. He is president of a bank, president of eleven different business as- gociations, and member of many other: The board of commissioners of public works in Omaha consists of three mem- bers; and Mr. Mayne is one of them. He has been away now nearly three months —and if he doesn’t return” before the end of this week they will declare his place vacant and elect a successor, in justice to his colleagues. So in attending to his own business and that of all others, the man worked sixteen or eighteen hours a day, month in and month out, just as if his iron constitution could not be broken. One day, without previous warning, he was taken with hemorrhage of the lungs, and broke down all at once!

New Orleans Picayune: About two years ago a man giving the name of John Simpson located on Bayou Bar- tholomew, Ashley county, Arkansas. He cleared a tract of land and bwilt a log house. He was a tall, stalwart fellow, with dark hair and gray eyes, straight as an Indian. He lived alone, seldom vy turing abroad, and avoided the neigi bors. He was always armed with a double-barreled shotgun, Beyond stat- ing that he was of gypsy origin, he said nothing respecting his “past life. This wused him to be regarded with s picion by parties living in the immedi neighborhood, but so secluded was his life that his presence wasscarcely known beyond a radius of five miles of his eai ‘That he had plenty of money wa t well known to those who had busi- n with him. Some days ago two men visited Simpson’s house, remaining over night. They quietly went away. Yesterduy parties hunting stray cattle passed the cabin and found no signs of ife. the door was broken open, and Simpson was found lying on the bed, , with his throat cut. 'hn- clay floor was covered with blood, and the over- turned furniture and disordered room showed that there had been a desperate struggle between the dead man and his assallants, On Simpson's person was found a watch and money, showing that robbery did not prompt; the murder. It has transpired to-day that Simpson was a member of a band of gypsies who have headquarters in the vicinity of Jackson, Miss., and Dayton, O., and'it is said that he was implicated in & big robbery in the latter state, fled here wnf the booty, and was followed and slain by members of the tribe, who considered that he had disgraced both himself and the gypsy race. ——— “‘Be wise to-day; 'tis madness to de- fer.” Don't neglect your cough.

We are informed by telegraph from Washington that the forthcoming report ot that oflicial will credit California with a gold product of #19,720,000 in 1836, It is very doubtful whether it was anything of the Kind. In the ea year 1885, the gold pro- duct of Californ as given in the re ort of the dircetor of the mint, was 2,700,000; in 1884 it was $18,600,000; in it was $11,120,000, It has not been 000,000 since 1870, Probably the most ¥ tion of the minecal product of the Pacificslopeis to be found i Wells, Fargo & annual state- ment, prepared by John J. Valentine; it gives'the gold product of California 'in s §11,007,005. ‘T'his does not take into acéount small parcels of gold car- riedl away by Chmamen or other miners from mines worked on a small scale; to be liberal, the estimate may be raised to $11,500,000 so as to include these. The Washington dispateh thus asks us to be- e that the gold output of the e has increased $8,200,000 in a single year, tie least attention or ousing any excitement in the mining community. A mathematician might say was reducing the proposi- tion to on absurdit In fact, we nere in San Francisco know all about the yield of the gold mingg in this state. Any one of a dozen geMle- men in the Nevada block can figare it out from memory to within half a mill- 10n; and we venture to say that not one of them will estimate last year's output at over #$15,000,000, if they allow so much, There was at one time a belief that the extensive gravel deposits of North Bloomfield and other mines in Nevada countyiwould be more cfliciently exploited in 1886 than in previous years during which the stoppage of hvdraulic mining had arrested their development; but the belief was not justif, by the event. The yield is very little greater than it was in 1885, and it is constantly checked by prosecutions instituted by the anti-debris people. - She has the compiexion ot a Peach, Pozzon fedicated Complexion powder did it.
