The vadlroad employes had their hose laid THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: MONDAY and water on as the firemen took their places and soon had the fire under con- trol without laying any of the city hose. The fire originated in a box of oily waste that is usually emptied every night, but was overlooked Baturday evening. The cause was undoubtedly spontaneous combustion, as the benzine and oil render it very combustible. The fire was confined to the lamp room, where it started, so the loss from that source was not extensive. Considera- ble damage was done by water, but the main loss was caused by the heavy black smoke from the burning oil and waste. Every room in the building was com- pletely filled with it, and everythin was covered by it with a thick blac] coat. One end of the building was used as a store room for Pullman sleeping car furnishings, and over 8,000 pieces of linen and 600 bed blankets received the sume inky coating. The total loss is variously “estimated at from $2,000 to #5,000, but cannot be exactly told, until it is known whether or not the stains of the smoke ean be removed from the textile fabrics. A black stripe across them would ruin them for their present use, and as the blankets cost $6.00 apiece the loss on them alone would be consid- erable.

A short time ago the city council granted Wickham Bros. leave to put in brick paving in front of their property on Fourth street. The property owners on the other side of the street imme- diately raised objections to it on the ground that the brick paving would soon be full of holes and the travel would all be on their side of the gtrect, thus wearing out their block paving much faster and subjecting them to extra expense. The dispute culminated Saturday afternoon by an infunction being obtained against them by John Lindt, temporarily forbidding the use of the bricks. Wickham Bros and the brickmakers are very anxious for the bricks to be lnid and the majority of the citizens want to see a fair test of it. The use of brick s a paving material would result in the keeping at home of a great deal of money that now goes to outsiders, as the main expense of the work now being done 1n this line is for the ma- terial shipped in here from other sec tions of the country. Much interest is manifested as to the final adjustment of the difficulty. e e FEvery one making a cash purch 2% centsat T. D. King & C store gets a chance in the annug drawing.

It was a surprise to many yesterday to see a large force of men at work laying the block pavement on Fifth avenue between Fourth and Main streets. There was an even larger crowd of lookers on than of workmen. It is well known that Council Bluffs is pushing improvements this season, but it has generally been thought that the rush was not so great but that all the needful progress could be made b working six days a week. The revel tion that it was necessary for public work to go on Sundays also was indeed a surprise. The men said the purpose was to get the job done by night. Further than that there scemed no rea- son for the special haste. The incident will form a theme for the pulpits, and these batteries will doubtless be aimed at the offenders at no late date, . THE ORIENTAL IN NEW YGRK. The Life of a Chinese—Womsn of the Better Class, who recently feigned in sanity so successfully in the metropolis writes: So far as known there are only fourteen Chinese women in New York city. Of course these nine are married, one is a widow, one an un- married girl, one a nurse and two anonyma. Although residents of the United States, they obey tothe very let- Jllie Bl ter the strange system of law and cu tom which obtains in the flowery king- dom, a system which strangly resembl the treatment of the queen bee in an apiary by her drones and workers. Five of these little women celebrated their marriage vows in China, two in San Francisco and two in New York., The moment she marries, the mongolian damsel becomes the property of her husband—a little more so than they doin America. Her spouse has the privilege, as all husbands the world over, to chide, scold and chastise her for her faults, and they assert that in cases of grave crime he has the right to kill her. In his punishment he may put her on what we would call bread and water diet, keep her locked up in a bed-room, closet or cellar, or beat her with his hand or a bamboo rod. 1In this respect the Chinese law is almost a fac- simile of the common law which pre- vailed in England and this country until about 1805, and which allowed the husband to “‘correet” his wife *'the open hand or a light rod,” but not with “the clenched fist nor a club,” Under this custom the average almond-eyed woman expects to be beaten with a regularity proportional to her quened lord’s affec- tion, and, like the wives of English “‘navvies,” vregards the omission of corporal punishment as a sure evidence of the loss of his love. e In New York the Chinese familv lives jellies, seal when they are a nightmare or dragons, fly- ing griffins and impessible trees that Itrees. until the skin can be removed without losing a scale and the bones without breaking the flesh. aromatic and spices. and the cyes and head touched so as to be half natural and half grotesque, 26 Mott street, OVEMBER 7, 1887. in the same flat or building ns that ir which the pater familias does business, To the wife is alloted one, two_or three rooms according to his wealth, From these she pratically never st Either her husband or servant d all the marketing and shopping. Still worse, she must not receive calls from the other sex excepting in rare cases when the husband presents an intimate friend. On such an eccasion the visitor bows repeatedly, shakes his own hand vigorously for a minute or two, utters the usunl stereotyped remarks about the health of herself, family, cousin and friends, and departs without having once looked at her ’ uce. ‘Where is the American who would do that?
