The one usually occupied by McCoy, the ‘Texas thug, held for the murder of Deputy Sheriff Gunn was found to be minus that in- dividual who was found under a mattress in a cell on the other side of the corridor. A further inspection revenled the fact that the bolts of four of the cell doors were sawed and that the cefls were practically open.

The board of edugsation met last night according to last Mondluy’s adjournment. In the absence of Prosident Clarke, Vice President Gray occupied the chair. Numnerous proposals were read for school sites, #nd they were all referred to the committee on new territory. The petition from Saratoga people asking for use of the school house .for church services and debating exercises was granted. A petition relative to the grade on Eleventh street, near Center school, was submitted to the board for official ac- tion. to sanotion with his official signature. Approved and secretary ordered The application of Miss M. Swanson, of Crescent City, for position as teacher, was referred. The course of study submitted by Prof. James was endorsed and the committee on printing instructed to have 2,000 copies of the course printed. Mr. Coburn, on behalf of the commit- tee on teachers and text books, recom- mended the election of the following as- sistant teachers: Callia G. Forrest, Mary Mikan, Jessie Scott, Barbara Hostetter and Minnie Hendrix. Adopted. The endorsement of the application of Kate M. Keene as a substitute teacher was adopted. The committee on property recom- wended the endorsement of the petition for a grade of the street on Twenty-ninth Douglas. Mr. Copeland vresented the following resolution: Whereas, The city hall is ill adapted to furnish suitable roows for the board of edu- cation, in consequence of the close proximity of_the police eourt and city juil, and Whereas, The proposed library building on Jefferson square will furnish rooms in every way suitable, Resolved, ‘I'hat the committee on finance be empow: to confer with the eity councii for the purpose of securing rooms in the pro- d library building. and to arrange for ransfer of the $25000 paid by the board of education toward the ercction of a city hall, from the fund set apart for that purpose, to any fund whieh may be approprinted for a library bulldl:r. in consideration of which suitable rooms shall be given the board in sajd new bullding,. This resolution _called forth some spirited debate. Mr. Copeland spoke in a disparaging way of the city ballas a place for the headquarters of the board, and thoufiht it was wrong to force refined young lady teachera to frequent a pluce where they would be subjected into dis- agreeable proximity to drunkards and outlaws. Mr. Coburn thought it was not any worse to be seen about the city hall ihan it was to be seen about Jeflerson Park. He also thought that the honor ot the board required its mewbers to stick to their original agreement. After remarks by several other meinbers it was moved 10 lapthe motion on'the table.

The chairman, howsver, set his foot down on any further! filibustering and most peremptorily r\n the original vote on the adoptioh f the resolution. This was carried by a‘vote of 7 to 5, de- spite the expostulatiens of Mr. Morrison inst the unfair adwantage that he de- clared was being taken by rushing the resolution through. i Next was rend the lengthy report of the committee on rules, forms and print- ing, in which was submitted the rules governing the board, as amended and revised by the committee. These rules were ungl{v and oollectively adopted with but few changes. The most im- portant being the changing of the tuition of non-resident schofi.n from $21 to #85 annualiy, INSPECTING THE VIADUCT. A Thorongh Examination Made of the Eleventh Street Structure, Yesterday morning Messrs, Balcombe aud Heimrod, of the board of public works and City Engineer Tillson and his assist- ant, Mr. Coburn, made a thorough exam- ination of the Eleventh street viaduct. They were accompanied by Will A. Lee, rapresenting the Morse bridge company, ofFoungaiowa, OB, the constractors ok the maln portion. Although no_ official ,_l report hag beea made as yeot, still it is very probmble that the viaduct will be " accevted. The hand railings and side starrways from the streets were constructed by Manning & Cooper, of Philadelphia, under asuboon- tract, Their work was greatly delayed and some small imperfections were dis- covered. These were remedicd, and it is said Mr. C. M. O'Donovan, the bridge in- spector, pronounces the changes satis- factory. The city inspecting nuthorities yesterday found imperfections, which will have to be arranged, but so far as could be learned they were of no great consequence. Complmat is made by many as to the oak planking on the fool-ways because of its warped condition, and it is is said soft wood planking will be 1. over the present walks. Mr. Lee ys that the oak plankmg was laid according to contract with the eity, and the muniei- pal authorities were told at the time that hard wood vlanking would never do. In the words of Mr. Lee, “No man living can nail down an oak plank so that it will not warp.” The inspection consumed from 9 o'clock in the morning until the middle of the afternoon. SURGEON AND SUFFERER. Why Dr. Stout Declined to Attend the Wounded Deaf-Mute, Dr. Stout'’s reported refusal to attend the deaf-mute boy Redfield, who was stabbed and seriously wounded Sunday afternoon in the south ecnd, has aroused much feeling, and the physician has been freely criticized for his indifference to the appeal of a wounded fellow-being. Investigation produces varying state- ments, Mike McDonald, who lives on the cor- ner of Twelfth and Grace streets, is one of the young fellows who helped to carry Redtield from the place where he was stabbed to Dr, Stout’s oftice. He states that when the wounded youth was brought into the oflice, the doctor re- fused to do anything for him from the first, and upon being informed that the wounded boy was Redfield's son and amply able to pay all necessary bills, the physician remarked that ‘‘the Redfields haa never done anything for him, and he did not propose to do anything for the Redfields."’ Dr. Stout was found at his residence last evening, corner Thirteeuth and Briggs streets. In response to the ques- tion whether he had refused to attend roung Redfield, the doctor said he had. 1e explainea that_he had attended a young man in the Redfield family and that there had been a difference between Mrs. Redfield and himself. They had words and he had told her that she must seek the services of another physi- cian as he would no longer visit the Redfield’s professionally. On the even- ing of the cutting he was just leaving his office and was locking the door when the young men came up. They told him & boy had been cut in the shoulder, and asked him to attend him. He asked who the boy was and was told it was Charlie Redfield. When he found who it was he told the party they had better £0 just beyond to Dr. Hoffman or some other physician, fas it was represented to him the boy was not seriovsly hurt. The doctar concluded by saying that had he known that the wound was dangerous he would have given immediate atten- tion. ADVANOING COMMISSIONS, Omaha Wants Betrer Stock Rates— Territorial ands Rejected. A meeting of the live stock commission men was held yesterday afternoon at the Stock Yards exchange building. The meeting was called to consider the re- quest of the live stock associations of Montana and Wyoming that the present rate of 50 cents per head commission, charged for selling cattle be changed to 1 per cent. of the gross sales. The ques- tion was freely discussed from all sides and while it was shown that 1 per cent. would be equivalent to about 30 ceats a head in grass range cattle it would raise the commission on eorn fed cattle above what the feeders could afford to puy. For these and other reasons it was decided not to grant the re- quest of the associations. On the other Aand, a motion was passed estab- lishing the rate of commissions as fol- lows: Cattle, 50 cents per head or not over 810 per car; hogs, $6 per car; sheep, $6 per car or $10 for double decks. A committee of three was appointed to wait upon the commission men to obtain their signatures to the above schedule of rates. Af all the commission men agree to the rate it will go into eftect November 1. ‘These commissions are the same charged at Chicago, Kansas City, St. Lous and other prominent western mar- kets. N/ g City the commission per head. If the proposed :dule 18 adopted it will be an advance here of $1.00 per car on cattle and single deck londs of sheep, the old rate having been 5 on both hogs and sheep. e AMUS EN18, THE ANDRESS PERFORMANCE, The Andress combination pitched a good-seized tent on North Eighteenth street last night and attracted an au- dience which occupied all the seats.

New York Sun: Several chambers ex- cavated iu the solid rock have been dis- covered on a hillside in Caton, near El- mirs, New York. There was a little opening in the hillside, which was known to the children who played there as the wolf’s den, but they never ventured into it, as it had the reputation of harboring rattlesnakes. It remained for Gus Wy- man to make the discovery. He was hunting rabbits, and one took refuge in this cave. On crawling into the cave Mr. Wyman saw an opening to the right of him, which he entered, and, lighting & mateh he saw he was in a chamber ex- cayated in the rock. He notiiied Mr. Dwight, on whose farm the cave is, and with a lantern they en- tered it. Their attention was first at- tracted to the bodies of nine men, iaid 1 regular order at one side of the c‘mmbcr, their heads to the north and their bodies resting on carved blocks of stone, and artistically carved stone pillows support- ing the heads. Various ornaments of metel were found. The bodies will average six feet in length, They were covered with cloth, which crumbles at the touch. Another chamber similar to the one described, 18 conneoted with it by a broad archway; it also contains bodies. The chambers ~are partly natural and partly artificial, they having been greatly ‘enlarged. The marks of the tools of the ancient work- men may he everywhere seen. It is not known whether the bodies were embalmed or were preserved by the atmosphere of the caverns. Everything remains as i1t was found and it is the in- tention of Mr. Dwight to have the place examined by a scientitic person. The bodies are not much attenuated, the skin is brown and the tlesn apparently hard. The hair in each case isblack, coarse and long. Ithas been discovered that the en- trance to the cavern was formerly much larger and had been entirely covered with earth. It is believed that the rains of yeare had the effect of washing the earth away, thus exposing the upper por- tion of the entrance to the subterranean chambers. i+ 2500 Capital cesaeanes 425 - A Private Spotter. St. Louis Republican: The clerks in some of the examiners’ rooms in the patent office were treated recently to a rather novel surprise by a man who had soveral applications for patents pending betore the office. Applicants for pgtents are aft to aflord a sensation now and then in the patent office, but this was one of such a personal character that after a while the humorous phase of the matter was not appreciated as much as at lirst, He had left his home and his business to get patents for his inventions, and he concluded, atter observing the methods of doing business, that the exuminers and their assistants ought to do more work sn office hours. He objected to their coming late in the morning, and to their long lunch periods, and to discussions in the room. = Hut he did not say a word Every morning prorptly'at9 o'clock he was at the dobr of.thy dépurtmient, and at once wont to the room of the exa iner, wher¢ his case was pending. 1f he found no one there he noted the fact in a small book that he ces#ied for that purpose, and tyen be taok his stand at the door, As the different clerks arrived he noted their names, and thoun, ‘ulmwlnz up at the clock, he pu down the exact time. During the he made sufficient observations the amountof work in progress ia_the room, and recorded it all in his Kttle book. When the lunch hour arrived e was on hand and ascertained how long it took each one in tne room to eat his Junch. He kept this system up for sev- eral woeks. These clorks h%ughod and called nm the “Spotter.” The 1aventor was never offensive about the mattoer. He simply kept his record. 1f anyone asked him what he was doing he explained it fully, and was very frank abont 1t. He said that he was losing time and money by staying in this city, and he merely wanted to ascertain for himself whether his business was being pushed forward as rapidly as was intended by the law. _He never made any threats of using this | information, but his persistence and quiet determination began to have an effect on the examiners and their assist nats. His apphications were finally dis. posed of and the inventor left the eity, to the great rolief of many olerks, whe felt rather restloss under this private sys- tom of inspection. The inventor was of the opinion that his policy had facilitated his business. i Sl THE SAWDUST SWINDLE. Victins Tempted By Bogus Legacies— Mails Flooded With Circulars, The heads of the sawdust gangs, says the New York Post, have devised a new scheme to defrand, and are flooding the mails with letters and circulars. Instead of the old circulars which offered coun- terfeit money for sale they have had pro- pared a circular in which'it1s stated that money has been left to the person to whom the letter is sent by & distant rela- tive, and that the legacy ean be secured by the payment of a certain sum of money to an agent in tlus city. The oir- culars are printed on the eylograph, and one of the forms is as follows: dw; ot NEW YORK, July b, 187.—Dear Sir: A distant relative of yours has died in this city and has left £3,000 to you. The money is dé- posited in the bank and awaits your order. ‘e have been given charie of the estate, and a8 s00n as you can establish _your claim the £3,000 will be paid to you. To do this you must come to New York and lat us see that on are acting in good faith, Of course, tore you can get the money you will have to pay expenses, which will “amount to $250. This " amount it will be necessary to brin, with you, It wouldbe well for you to ac quietly about the matter, for fearsome one may hear of your good luek and eause you trouble by laying claim to the money. We are your friends and you can &rust us Implicity, Before you start for New York you had befter tolegraph us along the line and we will have some one to meet you. You should come by the New York Central railroad. When youn ar- rive in New York take the elevated road at the station (fare five cents) and ride down to Fulton street. Go to the United States hotel and registar, and remain in your room until our ageutcalls. ~ Inclosed you will find half of a card on which is marked 116 a. Keep this, and when the agent calls on you he will present the other half of the card so that you will know that he is all_right. Be mighty careful who yon talk to, for New Yorkegs a big city and full of pitfalls and bad men, Hoping that you will be able to prove everye thing satisfactory, we remain, vours truly, B. LANa, No. 73 Stanton stroet, New Yort , N. B.—Return this letter when you sen an_answer, The name and address are on a separ - ate slip of paper, the same as the old-style sawdust letters. When the victim arrives in New York he is met at his hotel by the ‘‘capper,’’ who conducts him to the office of the principal swindler. There the countryman, after he has shown his credentials and proved that he has the money to pay the commission with, is shown the $3,000, which is done up in packages and consiste of crisp new bills. These are counted out and put in a_box, and the victim is instructed to send the money by express to his home. Before the bex is taken from the room a dupli- cate one, containing brick and waste paper is substituted. The latter box is shipped by express. and when the viotim arrives home he finas that his “‘legacy" consists of rubbish. sl Girls symmer n, hy P g T I HAGAN'S, MAGNOLIA” BALN.” Thus sald ra F., to her companions, as sho come bounding ome bounding in from a"Fomp over the MAGNOLIA BALM a R Ul e Positive Curg s::.-%: or pay &Il expenss OF paLle ko 0o Charge. - MWe Aré fnan i Tk Wit Iu- Iur.ulw of vur w'u' I‘I r ll;- e 3 Slately” dnkhown: ity Fhyatcian o Galok ‘0 Sarth ARDY 00!
