PAris Sept. 28,—|New York HeraldCable —Special to the BEE.|—A few days ago the Gaulols made a sensation by echoinga rumor that the remalns of Napoleon, which all the world believed to be resting in a tomb in the Invalides, had been sacriligiously removed at some time not specified, and that the tomb was empty. Although the story sounded ri- diculous, almost every newspaper in Paris sent to the Invalides to Interview the guar- dians and were laughed at for their pains. The Interviewers were told that it was phys- lcally fmpossible to 1ift theenormously heavy porphyry lid without special machinery, and solemnly assured them the remains had never been disturbed since they were placed In the Invalides. This mornln1 the Gaulois, with every appearance of good faith, pub- lished a startling article headed, “Le Docu- ment Apropos des Cendres de Napoleon I,” purporting to have been communicated to it by a person formerly holding a high official position, according to which the great em- ashes ~ were not indeed from the Invalldes but never deposited there, as on opening the coffin brought from St Helena, and supposed to contain them, it was found empty. ‘The Gaulois informant solemnly asserts that a yellow dossier, sealed with eight seals and labelled ‘‘affaires classes,” exists in one of the departinents ot the ministry of public instruction, On the wrapper is the {nseription referring in detail to “‘travaux de la commission secrete charme de lenquite relative a I'bsence des condres de Napoleon I, an moment de Louverture des concils,” " The names of twelve digna- taries composing the commlttee the date their 1861, fol- Valliant, Count Walewski, Count Persigny, Marshal D'Orano. ~After the names, says the Gaulols informant, comes a note that the report 157 paces in length, was drawn up and presented to Napoleon 111, April 27, 1804, by Maralial Vallinat, recording the absence of the em- ap- remains at the time of the opening of BT. coftin in the chapel at St. Jerome.

Mr. Florence gaye us a new play last night, at Boyd's, in “Uncle Bob.” The audience was the largest he has played to during his engagement. [t empha- cized the fact that, despite the excellence and unigueness of the work of Mr. and Mrs. Florence 1n their older pieces, the latter have owthived the universality of their welcome. Uncle Bob is a westerner who has mined and starved and roughed 1t and struck it rich on the mountains and plains of the western states and territor- ies. He came east to see his brother, His breeziness, generosity and traditional ood nature come with him, He is fabu- ously wealthy. He has a pard’s niece as his idol, and meets & scoundrel whom he knew in the mines, endeavoring to bring ruin to his brother's daughter and an- other femuale friend. He exposes the vil- liant and the play ends in a auadruple marriage. Uncle Bob uses the parlance of the plains and camp The patois drops most naturally fsom his lips. His make- up is satisfactory and his acting through- out highly successful. He indulges in no rant, in no mock-heroism. There are no loud passages, and it may be that, for this reason, there were so few recalls. The appreciation, such as it was, was not pro- nounced but heartfelt. Mrs. Florence made an excellent net-maker and cap- tured Uncle Bob with consummate cheek aud skill. The J)Ing did not run as smoothly as it doubtiess will when the K;ompter may be discarded. The rob- ry scene was ineffective, It will re. quire more attention and perhaps an- other actor. THE CIRCUS.

The hall was crowded, and among the audience were many of Omaha’s most respected and influential citizens, Shortly after 8 o'clock Colonel Eiboeck called the meet- ing to order, and in his opening address said: “For many months I have heard re- portd to the effect that there are hundreds of former lowans resident in this city who moved from that state to avoid the odious disndvantages cuused by the pro- hibitory law. At first I could hardly give credence to the reports that there were 5,000 of these people in Omaha. This being the year of years that will tell whether or not the laws of Iowa will change, Uthought it & foo«l plan to leave my home in Des Moines for a few weeks and come over to Omaha and see for myself the results of the obnox- 1us prohibitory law of my state. I thought by this that I could show the [.wunln of Towa just how much they have ost by their ruinous laws, and since 1 arrived here I have realized the fact that there are more than 10,000 Iowa people in this city, and not merely 5,000, as we have been led to believe. "I know for a fact that 1,000 of the people here are from Des Moines. The statement has been made that only the saloonkeepers left the state, but since I have been in Omaha I have found that the greut ma- jority were the mechanics, the artisans and the business men. 1 have met men to-day who were former residents of TIowa who now represent three-fourths of a million invested in this city, and I have learned from good authority that there is over $3,000,000 invested in this city that would to-day be in Iowa if it were not for the prohibitory laws in that state. To bring cities n that afflicted state up to the rropur standard we must have the repeal of that law, and earnest and untiring eflorts of able men will be placed in the campaign this tall, which, it is hoped, will have the desired effect. Now what I desire are the names, residence, and_occupation of every former resident of Iowa who has moved to this city within the past three or four years. I also want to know all of the capital represented, and I am con- fident that the vast array of names and capital found in this city and state which I shall present before the people this fall will be suflicient to insure the repeal of the liquor law, 8o odious and unproiitable,” At this point the speaker announced that a chairman slmuhi be elected, and e recommended H. C. Bechtold. The nominee was elected unanimousiy, and in assuming the office he thanked the iarge audience for the honor conferred. He spoke of the oppressive luws of Towa and of the many good citizens that they hud driven away from that state, Mr. Vaught, formerly mayor of Coun- cil Bluffs, was introduced and made a long and rambling speech, in wnich he said: *‘l do not understand that this is a lignor meeting, but simply a meeting of investigation. Owing to the exorbi- tant taxcs in lowa, many have left that state and seitled in Omakh: other portions of Nebrasl ] aiding grandly in the upbuilding of this state. ‘The question to-night 18, ‘Who is going to pay the taxes of lowa? It is a a well known fact that Dos Moines had before the prohibitory law an income of $02,000 from sixty-two saloons, and since the lnw went into effect it does not have an income of 62 cents out of more than 200 saloons.”” Colonel Eiboeck again took the floor, and as an instance of the ruin and retard- ment caused by the prohibitory law, said: *‘Des Moines is a city with resour- ces of those of Omaha, two great rivers, vast water power. Itisin the center of one of the grandest agricultural districts in this union. It has fourteen accessable railroads, and we arae still behind Omaha. Four years ago we had the wenlth, the thrift and the population that Omaha could not surpass, and Des Moines with all of its resources has been brought into bunkrurlcy by this prohibition. People have left the city by the thousand, and to-day it is but a wreck of what it was ago. Has prohibition saved v? Ifit had we might say that there 1s some good 1n it. But, alas, it has not. Thousands of arrests for drunkeness have been made in the city, thousands of search warrants have been issued during the past year, 800 barrels of whiskey, 500 car loads of beer, gallons of liquors packed in shoe cases, egg cases, bales and other recoptacles, have been shippod nto the city during the past year, and this demonstrates the good or bad that the prohibitory law is dong in Iowa.” As the speaker closed he introducad Judge Stowe, who addressed the andience briefly. I know,” said he, “‘that Ne- braska is well filied with Towa men, but am really surprised to find that Colonel Eiboeck has gathered so many of you together, and has got you so well stirred up. If Lean adda word that will help my friends in Jowa I will gladly doit, I do not believe that there is one man here to-night who has heard an Iowa man say within the past tbhree years, ‘prohibition is not a humbug.’ 1 have had prominent men tell me that they had found out that it was a humbug, ulmuufh they were among the many who voted tor it. It how- ever is making Towa and its residents suf- fer to-day. Hundreds of thrifty people are coming from across the water every day, and as they come west not a one of them stays within the boundaries of Iowa. The values of pmperl{‘ in that state are low- ering every duy, What Is true of Des Moines is also true of every other city and town in the state. Surplus money has ceased to flow into Iowa, 1mmigra- tion hus ceased, and as a nataral result the pay for labor is low, there is a dearth of it, and laborers are seeking more profitable fields. Iowa has only one pro- duct and that is its grain, and in adopt- g prohibition she has passed a law to the effect that her only product shall not be manufactured from in her own state. ‘The result is deplorable. Men have not left because they cannot get liquor to drink, but because the law has deadened every industry, lowered wages and low= ered the values of farms. lowa hasa dead commerce, and the state 15 under the iron heel of despotism.” 3 ‘This closed the speaking, and a list of the numes of the lowans present was then taken, and nearly $150 was sup- scribed to aid Colonel” Eiboeck along in his campaign this fall. A committee was appointed to complete the work, and consists of the following: Colonel Ei- boeck, Charles Jacobin, Ed Maurer, Coninds, Thomas' E.” Foley and Vaughn, s following resolution was passed animously us Lthe sense of the meeting: I'liat while we sre conpelled to s grand a state as there is in the union—on account of the deploravle effects of vrohibition, which has practically ruined its towns and cities, and which, by the destruction of the brewerles and distilleries, has avery farmer il state of from 3 cents to 5 cents on every bushel of corn he raises; that while we haveifelt the tyrannical rule of fanateism, and have become familiar with the outrages of prohibition enforced as perpetrated by the agents of the temperance alliance of our state, who have invaded the sanctities of the firesides and the lodge rooms, dragged dying women from their s, Incarcerated men for simply pro- testing against these outrages, an shooting down like dogs innocent men upon the streets of Des Molnes, because they would not immediately obey the mandates of the prohibition spies and bullies; that while we have feit and realized this terrible curse that has befallen our old home stata. we de- sire to give expression to our feelings of sym- pathy to our strugeling friends in lowa and assure them that thew have our heartiest well wishes in their battie this year agalpst the pestilence of prohibition, which hangs like a olack pali over our beloved old state.
