Several other tests were made and every one was satisfactory to those pres- ent. It was learned by a BEE represent- ative that Prof. Orton, of Ohio, only made a casual examination of the well. He never knew that rock had been struck and niade his adverse criticism hastily. CURE FOR COLIC. A South Omaha Man Uses a Stove for a 8afe. & . One evening. recently, C. M. Vande- soll, a resident of South Omaha, had oc- casion to bring home with him an unusu- ally large amount of money and had no safe in which to put it for the night. While trying to find a suitable place, his n?m it on the cold stove, and acting on the impulse of the moment, he put the casb down into the fire box in the ashes, contident that his greenbacks would be safe from all noctumal rarnblers. Dur- ing the night he was attacked by some- thing like a colic, and his wife had to get up, start a lire and prepare sofne re- Iief for his pain, While lying on bis bed Frouninz he caught a sniff "of burning eather. In a moment his nches were for- gotten and he rushed to the stove, llg’mbbed the voker frautically, and soon rought forth the book and contents in AMUSEMENTS, Review of the Past and the Prospect of Next Week. The past week has not been very lively in the amusement: world. The peoples’ purses had run low because of the subscriptions and expenses incidental to the fair, reunion and veteran firemen's reception, while excitement of these gatherings in no way conduced to pre- pare the people for the pleasures of the theatre—Coup’s equescurriculum, al- thougn worthy of patronage, was ex- hibited to light houses at the Exposition hall.

In Shylock, Mr. McLean did his best work of ‘the engagement. Yet, at times, he was unpardonably vocifer- ous and wearing on the ear, and even drowned his lines by his senseless and antiquated stamping of the stage. His best work was in the last scene, and was red and gray embers. His colic troubled him no more that night. BROKE HIS ARM.

Milton Nobles, one of the Omaha fav- orites, will appear on next Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings, with the usual matinee on the afternoon of the last day, He will appeur, for the rirst time in this city, in his new play, “From Sire to Son,'" which has been produced with considerable success in the east. He will also produce his other favorite piece, “Love und Law,” though at the resent writing no announcement has een made of his ‘‘Phenix.” Manager Boyd has now engaged in painting new’ scenery for his stage, Ei cene Cox, an expert artist from New ork, who will add to the stock a number of funcy chambers, wings, borders, a pair of tormentoes and several set pieces which will greatly amplify the present excellent resources of the stage. GRAND OPERA HOUSE. The week at this house will open with a piece, yet new to our theatre-goers, named **Two Old Cronies.”” It will be played Monday, Tuesday and Wednes- day evenminys., On Thursaay evening Thomas W. Kecene will make his tirst appearance in this city since his return to the stage. Two years ago he played at the Boyd and the evening after his last perform- ance here, he was stricken in an almost unaccougtable manner with paralysis at Kfluflnfl (ihy. It is said Lhnfi,h.lr- eene's period of convalescence has been devoted to study, and that his work i now more acceptable than it was before.

The plan contemplates the deco. rating of the trusses, the procenium arch with papier mache and applied work and the toning of the walls of the auditorium with the view of uring a cozy and cheerful appearance.

This theater has introduced the novelty d of a Thursd tinee, and with consid erable I'he vlace is crowde nightly. This week a bill with a number of novelties has been introduced. THE DORIS & COLVIN SHOW. The above named amuscment confed- eration hus been exhibiting in Kansas for the pas on weeks, and will exhibit in Omaha on Tuesday, September 22, giving two grand performances, one at 2 an one at 7 p. m. The Doris & Colvin cir- cus this season is a circus indeed, con- sisting of colossal combinations of amuse- ment of all kinds and embracing in its list of performers many of tiie besp known names in the profession. ‘The various departments of the show is a guarantee of the sufliciency ot enter- tainment. There 15 a m{)e circus, a monster menagarie, a world's museum, an elevated stage, a grand Romau hippo- drome, and a new wild west, all in one grand series of entertainments. Probably the greatest teature of the reat show is the massacre of Generul “uster. That unprecedented massacre is reproduced with historieal correctness by Indians, scouts, soldiers, etc., and is one of the most, if not indeed the most, thrilling scenes ever enacted. Many wild west scenes are given, so many in fact, that it is claimed to be the only combvlete wild west now in this country. The Roman hippodrome is also very fine. Roman standing, vaulting, chariot and steeple chases, as well as modern running and trotting races, being the order ot the day. The races are run on a quarter of a mile track, which surrounds the circus ring and the elevated stage he whole show, indeed, is lignly pra s and people; the circus menagerie, podrome and eing astounding in size and merit. pain k., E.

The broncho in question was attached to car 54, which, however, bore no street sign. le was a spirited animal. He chafed under the collar, and endeavored by vicious strikes of the head to rid him- solf of tue lines. Every time the traces struck him he jumped as Ingh as the car and buttered the front platiorm with all the enthusiasm of a bass drumme; Two men were required to do the dri ing and one manncd the brake. The horse was tortured with a bit line which one of the men controlled, and used when the bronetic became particularly unruly, to bring hin to his knees. All down the strect the horse reared and plunged and staggered, until hundreds of people condemned the policy which required such dangerous exhibitions on the street. This it but one of twenty bronchos which are to be domesticated. e Worked the Check Racket. L. D.
