t f { H A VERY QUEER PROCEEDING. The Mayor and Oouncil of Lincoln to be Brought to Court in Omaha, 80 ORDERED BY THE U. 8. COURT, A Lawyer Gives His Opinion—Re- warding & Man for Shooting & Footpad—A Fifty Thousand Dollar Church. Federal Interference, Tuesday, Deputy United States Mar shal Allen went to Lincolu to serve an injunction from the United States court upon the city council of Lincoln,restrain- ing it from further action of inyestiga- tion into the charges of dishonesty which have been made against Police-judge Parsons of that city. ‘The injunction was served, and as a consequence the trial was brought to a close, and everybody who had not been trepnmd for the interference of the Jnited States court were surprised at the new turn affairs had taken, especially so when the result will be the bringing of the Lincoln mayor and council to this city on November 7 to answer in the ease brought against them by Judge Parsons. The latter, as has been stated, is police judge of Lincoln. He has been charged with misappropriating public funds, a quantity of evidence sus: taining the charges having been dis- covered by a committee of the council. Yesterday evening this testimony was to have been read before the council,but the injunction served in the afternoon pre vented the reading from taking place, because it expressly enjoined the body from proceeding further with the churges, from taking a vote upon the subject, from declaring vacant Parsons’ position, and from appointing any person to suc- ceed him, The ground upon which an in- junction from the United States court was received, in absence of the petition, 1t is thoughr, is the fact that the act under which Parsons is brought to trial was passed after the commission of the crime now alleged against that man. Notwishstanding, the nterference of the supreme court in the matter has been severely criticised. It was unexpected, and to-day, eyen in this city, has been a subject of gencral consideration among attorneys in this city. A leading lawyer, speaking on the subject, yesterday smid: “If it has come to this, that the federal courts propose to interfere and regulate the municipal governments of the states, and restrain them from the right to inquire into the conduct of their oflicers, then the sooner we commence ag the question of home rule in Americ: better will it be for us. I do not wish to be understood as expressing an opinion as to the guilt or innocence of Judge Parsons, for as yet I am not prepared to say, not having heard the testimony. What the results will be upon a full hear- ng of the evidence no one as yet can tell, but at the same time 1 do not believe that any federal court has any jurisdiction to e whether wo shall or shall not nd with the hearing of complaints preferred against city officers. The ower to remove a corporate officer rom his oflice, for reasonable and just canse, is one of the common law inci- dents of all corporations, but if this were not true the city charter expressly clothes the council with such right. Without the right to purge _itself occasionally a city government might become unseemly and for myown part I am infavor of standing by that right.” HE SHOT HIS MAN, Aud the Citizens Gave Him a Gold Watch for Doing So. All old citizens who patronize barber shops here must remember Carl Bock- haus. Fifteen years ago he was partner of Louais Faist in the shaving business, and they held forth on Fifteenth street just north of Douglas street. They were not doing & metropolitan business at the time, for it was rather a season of long hair and unshaven faces in Umaha. Finally Bockhaus thought he could do better 1n the far west, and ac- cordingly in September, 1870 he started for Leadville, Col. He had $90 as his share of the partuership assets and an old fashioned straight back barber chair. The latter he disjointed and placed it in a trunk, the money he put in his newly purchased wallet and with the kind wishes of his partner Louis and several friends started westward, He struck Leadville and there had quite an experience. After opening a shop and doing exceedingly well, he was attacked by twotootpads one night on s return to his lodging quarters, Carl pulled his little gun and not knowing whether he wus going to hit the moon or an elephant, fired. The result was a dead robber. He fired again, and subse- uent events found a_wounded man hid- ng under a porch. The shots attracted attention, nranfie 1o say for those Lead- ville days, and Bockhaus was escorted to the lock-up. A fren! number of people assembled, and it was found that the dead man was one of the most notorious roughs in the city. The wounded part was just a8 bad, ‘and the crowd immed- 1tely lynched him, making a telegraph vole the ‘“Tyburn tree.” Three cheers were ~ given for Bock- baus, and the next day he was resented with a $225 gold watch which e now carries. The bullet taken from the desperado he kilied was attached to a gold badge on which were inscribed the events of the night and he wears it a8 & precious ornament to-day. Mr, Bockhaus is now a rancher and cattle raiser at Buena Vista, Colo. He has been in Omaha a few days visiting his old lmrtnvr, Mr. Faist, and intends to re- urn here for permanent location in a short time. Coming to Omaha, Messrs® Meagher & Sproat, general agents for Diebold Safe and Lock Co,will on Oct. 1st open their store in 1415 Far- nam st, and will be fully prepared to fur- nish safe and bank work of all kinds. ————— A $30,000 CHURCH, To be Erected by the St. Mary’s Con- gregational Society. St. Mary's Avenue Congregational church, one of the most successful relig- ious societies in the city, spurred by the hope of accomplishing greater good have decided upun the erection of a new church which shall cost in the vicinity of $50,000. The structure is to be of stone and of most beautiful design. The so- ciefy has apponted a committee of fiftcen to consider the matter and arrange all the prehiminaries and report the same to & meeting of the members of the as- sociation which will be held at an early day, The comnuttee consists of the trustees, W. J. Connell, Fred W, Gray and A S. Billings, besides twelve other members of the church as follows: William N. McCandlish, Samuel Burns, D. V., Sholes, ‘I. W. Blackburn, J. 8. Gibson, J. W, Griflith, T. W, T Ylnr‘ G. W. Hall, C. E. M‘nyne, R. E. Gaylord and W. A, Hig- Kins. 'l"ho association a few nights ago held a mweeting and unanimously resolve against permitting Rev. Ar. Scott to ac- copt a call from the Union Co%wa- tional church of Boston, Mass. The in. witation had been extended with ‘a great of unanimity and bas besn opposed with no less fervor by Mr. Scott's peo- le here. That gentleman has now in his possession all the ofticial documents concerning the call, but he has not yet made up his mind as to whether or not he will relinquish his present position at St. Mary's, SOUTH OMAHA NEWS. The Presbyterian poand sociable will take place at the Benson house ‘Thurs- day evening. Charles Gorman has returned from a trip through the runge country. John E. Boyd has declared his inten- tion of allowing his name to be used as a candidate for sheriff on the derocratic ticket. L. G, Eryin has taken charge of Ed- holm & Akin’s branch house in this eity. Dr. T. H. Enson has opened an office at the Palace drug store. A. Kclner and James P. Hayes, mem- bers of the shooting club, have gone to Elkhorn Valley to spend a few days hunt- ing. . Miss Mamie Carpenter has accepted a position as assistant teacher in the South Omaha publie schools. Patrick McCanu was arrested on com- lvlnim of Hon. M. J. Wolf for assault and hattery and yesterday Judge Reuther dismissed the case at the cost of the com- plaining witness. There are now five teachers in South Omaha with 250 pupils under their charge, The present school building was not large enough to accommodate them and the board has secured the Methodist church for some of the scholars until the new building is completed. The eitizens of Albright, which is also in this school district, are complaining that they cannot gi seats to all the pupils, and are de Z some way of securing more commodious quarters, The B. & M. had a little ash-up in 1 v night. The switch- men were handling a car loaded with hogs, en it collided with an empty flat car, e end of the londed car was crushed in, and a number of the hogs were killed. The plans and specifications for the new addition to the stock exchange have been completed and the work of erection will begin as soon as the ground is ley- eled down and the stock yards sewer is completed.

DURABLE SIDEWALKS, The council has at length passed an ordinance which will have the desired effect in the matter of laying decents looking and durable sidewalks in the business district of this city. By it, wooden walks are declared a nuisance, and must be removed when they give signs of decay, and substituted b{ stone, brick, slagolithic or other durable ma- terial. A fine of not less than $5 nor more than $100 will be inflicted upon any person who may hereafter construct or repair a wooden walk within the de- scribed district which comprises the fol- lowing streets: Farnam street from Ninth to Eighteenth strect; Howard, Harney, Douglas and Dodge, from Ninth to Six- teenth; Ninth, Eleventh, Twelfth, Four- teenth aud Fifteenth, from Howard to Dodge; Tenth from Dodge to the Union Pacific depot; Thirteenth from Dodge to Leavenworth; Sixteenth from Howard to Cuming. usi- WHAT DOES IT MEAN? The board of public works met yester- day afternoon at 2 o’clock to discuss the ordinance above referred to, and if possible to determine what materials may be used in the construction of what the ordinance calls permanent sidewalks, Mr. Allan, thesidewalk inspector, wanted information on the same subject, in order that he might act intelligently in the premises. A long discussion was carried on, which continued up to a late hour, Eastern Capitalists, The prospects are that a large flour mill will soon be established here, Yes- terday Messrs, C. H. Fowler and Preston Gantz, monied men of Chicago, arrived in this city, and in all probability they will erect a mill that will not cost less than §25,000. Both are practical men in the milling and grain business. They were shown around the city by Colonel Eddy and W. G. Albright, and seemed to be very favorably impressed with the outlook for & prosperous and profitable business in the milling line, Are You Going East? The Limited Express of the Michigan Central, “The Niagara Falls Route,” which leaves Chicago at 3:10 p. m. every day, is in many respects the favorite train East, on account of its splendid equipment, admirable service and fast time, for which no extra charge 1s made. It carries superb Wagner Palace Sleep- ing Cars, running through without change to Toronto via the Canadian Paciic, to New York via the New York Central & Hudson River, and to Boston via the Boston & Albany railroads, Ni- agara Falls is passed early in the morn- g _and the train halts several minutes at Falls View, where the scene is un- rivalled, ———— The Will of O.

Illuminating Gasoline, Notwithstanding that gasoline may not be sold for illuminating purposes under venalty, it is nevertheless bought for that purpose and used 1n a number of places throughout the city. As a conse- quence, explosions take place, an alarm of fire is given, and the city is put to an unnecessary expense. —_— Allen-Fiegenbaum, Mr. J. D.
