Ll Fighting For a Cholce, The matter of sclecting a pian for the new school building is exciting much interest. The elevation of the plan submitted by Allen & Bell is on exhibition in the window of D. W. Bushnell's store and is much wdmired. Considerable comment was made yesterday afternoon in regard to the action of Mr. Maxon in removing his plans from the rooms of the school board. The clerk of that body was asked why the change was made and he replied that he sup- posed it was for the purpose of making the changes suggested by some of the board. 1f such is the case it is eminently unfair for the other competing parties, A prominent member of the board was asked why the plans were removed, and said that he had no knowledge of it. He had given Mr. Allen permission to remove his elevation, as that gentleman wished to get it photographed, but the rest of his plans were still in the possession of the clerk, If the others had been remowed it was without his consent and he did not think they could be again presented. He would be much pleased fo have Mr. Maxon place his elevation on exhibition by the side of the other and leave the taxpaying public to make a selection. He hoped there would be no more of the work that was done on another occasion, which resulted in the expensive suit brought by Mr. Driscoll against the city, All he wanted was to see fuir play, and a decision for the best intel F Brick For Sale,—10,000 200,000 common.

Hugh Thompson Finds Himeeif in Great Trouble Over It. THE CHAUTAUQUA GROUNDS. They Will Be Looked Over To-Day— Three Fires Give the Boys Ex- ercise—Last Night's © ert. He Loved Too Well. There was a deal of dirty clothes washed before the jury in the district court yester the nevessary result of the at tempt to get Hugh Thompson sent to the penitentiary for bigamy. Thompson is a little man, aged thirty-nine, whose face and form are quite familiar to Omaha citizens, he having for seven years been the water in spector. He is now superintendent of the water works at York, Neb. The present case is brought at the instance of wife No. 2, wife No. 1 having died some time ago. Wife 0. 1, according to his statement, was a Ho. boken girl whom he married in New York and afterwards left as he found she was going to the bad. She afterwards died. His wife No. 2 he first met in Omaha. He was in the r my and he was introduced a chum on the street, the girl being ed simply He called upon a fow days later at a house of prostitution, where she was living. The closest sort of intimacy soon sprang up, id this continued for some time, and at last sulted in mars He claims that be knew nothing about her character, outside of nd believed her story that she was & domestic, who could arn better wages in such a house than in o able family, and hence remained After the marriage she continued with onsent to 1 in a like house, as he was unable to support her on §18 a month. After his time was up, and he was discharged from the army, they went to housckeeping. While thus keeping house another girl upon the scene. She lived with the and they thought a great deal of her. He thought so much of her that he vowed she should never be without a roof over her head. Wife No. jealous, according to her tell, and found that she was entirely sup- planted, and that the girl was soon to become @ mother, The next she found that Thomp- son slipped over to Council Bluffs and had Justice Barnett quietly marry them, making the girl wife No. 3. Thompson does not den, this, but explains his _motive _ ver) strangely. He says that Nellie, his No made him promise to always look after this girl, whose name was Mack, and in accordance with the promise thus made wife 2 he made the girl wife No. He found that the Mack girl was in an interesting con- dition, and while he was in 1o way respousi- ble, he could not think of allowing the fellow who offered to become responsible, marr her. His wife, Nellie, told the Ma that if she married this fellow she never darken her doors again. There being 0 much opposition to her marrying the one she ought to have wedded, and something had to be done to cover up the girl's disgrac he concluded to marry the Mack girl himself. One reason for doing o was that it was hard to get any place for her to st 'llurqu:lwr sickness, and this was made ea hrow- ing about her the sauctity of ma re lending her his name. All this was from philanthropic motiv nd a desire to keep his promise to wife No. Just before this marriage with wife No. 3 Thompson had applied for a divorce from wife No. 2. He had got a default, and w about to get a decree, when she suddenly ay peared, had the default set aside, and his lit- tle yame stopped. In the meantime he had the marringe ceremony performed, and so arose the trouble, and the charge of bigamy. Thompson claims that he was the victim of a bad girl's scheme. He claims that he sup- posed she was a domestie, and not a pro- stitute, and that he did not mean any harm. The burden of the defense seems to be to break down the character of wi No. 2, who has been known in Omaha as Nellie Patte: son, or “Crazy Nell,” who has been fr quently arrested, and had rather an unsavory record. The prosecution is laying stress on the fact that none knew better ‘than he what sort of a girl she was when he married her, and that after this marriage she remamed true to him until by his intimacy with the Mack girl she was obliged to leave him, There are & number of Omaha people fn attendance upon the trial.

To-day, providing the weather is favorable, the Omaha and Council Bluffs committecs of of the boards of trade of the two cities will take a look at the proposcd Chautauqua assembly grounds. The Omaha visitors are expected to arrive on the 0 dummy train, and will be met at the depot and taken in carriages to the grounds. After inspecting them at leisure they will be given a lunch at the Bechtele hotel The move to secure anassembly here meets with much favor, and those who understand fully the plans and purposes are very enthus- iastic, They realize that when the assembly is started on the broad b now laid out, it will be the true Chautauqua of the west and be to this part of the country what Chau- tauqua, N. Y., is in the cast. It will draw during the season thousands upon thousands of people. During their stay they will not pen themselves on the grounds merely, but will improve the opportunity to visit Omaha, will enjoy themselves at rake Manawa, and will find numerous attractions in this part of the worid. The New York Chautauqua is unable to accommodate the whole country, and already there is being es- tablished another great assembly for the south, and there is strong probability of there being another large pne established on the Pacific cost. Midway between cast and west re is need of one, and by prompt action and by generous enterprise in the early or- ganization this great assembly can be secured for this point. It simply rests with the peo ple whether they will “improve the oppor- tunity now offered. The enterprise is one which not only interests both cities, buta wide extent of the surrounding country. By the plans as now adopted it will not only furnish attractions which will draw peopl for fifty or one hundred miles, but for five thousand wiles around who have not d the plans. Th grounds selected are picturesque and with a comparatively small expenditurc can be made wonderfully The railways centering in thes cil make this a natural center for such a summer gathering Western money can secure just as great ora. s noted men, skillful ar tists, and brainy teachers, as easte and such entertainment and instru will be as gladly accepted as castern people.

Johngon & Van Patten, 83 Main street. i<l Sty Three of a Kind, A fire alarm was turned in at about half past 10 yesterday morning from box 28, near the corner of Broadway ana Bryant street. The department responded promptly, and in one minute and fifty seconds from the time that the number was struck on the big bill on No. 8 hose house, had two streams of water playing on the firc that was blazing through the roof of the Chicago Tea, Coffee and Spice company’s store at 305 Broadway. It took but a short time to extinguish the flames, as the building was but one story high, and the fire could be easily reached. The cause of the trouble was a defective flue, and the flames were under good headway when dis- covered. 'The stock of goods in the building was quickly moved outside, and the loss on them_will not cxceed The entire roof was destroyed, and about $20 damage was done to the roof of the adjoining building, occupied by Peterson & Anderson, gro- cers, The te and ~ coffee ' com- pany will occupy temporary quar- ters in the rear of Cook's building until necessary repairs are made, which will re- quire about a week. "The fire lads had just returned to their quarters and were putting dry hose upon their wagons, when another alarm was turned in from box 43, near the Strectsville school. A rapid run of over two miles was made, but the department was unable to do anything with the fire, which was about ) thousand fect from the nearest hydrant. The building belonged to Dr. Bellingér and was occupied by James Umble, The furniture was saved, but the building was burned to the ground. The loss is covercd by insur- auce. During the run Neil Voorhis, foreman of No. 4, had a narrow escape from serious inju while near the corner of Fourth street and Broadway. In turning a corner, the wagon slid against the street car track and nearly upset, throwing Voorhis several feet. Luckily he alighted on his fect, and made good connections with the truck that was following close behind. At 5:15 in the afternoon a third call camo from box 85 _on South Main street, near the Chicago, Bur- lington & Quincy freight house. The en- tire department’ responded promptly and found the fire to be in a boxcar in the Rock Island yards. The blaze was caused by a passing locomotive, and might have been ex- tinguished with a_bucket of water without calling out the department. Notwithstand- ing the fact that it was the second severe run of the day, good time was made. As this completed “the inevitable ‘‘three,” the boys will now sleep as soundly as ever. These are the first fires since January 2, but the de- partment got there in a_way that showed it had not forgotten how during; its long rest. Yesterday's fire at Sticetsville shows plainly that the residents in that vicinity have inadequate fire protection, They pay their share of the water tax and it is but fair that the an_equivalent. In case of i fire in that part of the city, the two double reels carry all the hose that'is taken there, and that is apout eighteen hundred Mone: Burnhs from the center of the city uable time is used up in A hand reel stationed there, 2,000 feet of “‘mill hose,” might vice, and would give the west- ern part of the city much better fire protec- tion. Unless the water mains are extended and additional hydrants located in that vicin- ity, the citizens will not have even reasonable Dprotection, to say nothing of the best. E. H.

WAsHINGTON, April 12.—The senate bill to se the pay of army chaplains was re- ported adversely A motion to refer the president’s message was taken up and Mr. Coke addressed the senate, Speaking of the surplus of §140.000,- 000 in the treasury, he said that the causes which took that money needlessly from the pockets of the people and the channels of trade were continuing and poduced more avated results each successive year. Unless the causes are vemoved or modified a calamity fatally involving all the industrial interests of the country must follow. In view of this emergency the president had urgently recommended such a revision of the tariff and reduction of the duties on imports as would reduce the revenues to the limit re- quired for the support of the government, The president was simply voicing the de- mand that came from the people of the whole country. Mr, Coke said that consuniers did not complain of taxes on distilled spirits, malt liquors and tobacco, as that tax added noth- ing to the cost of living, and it was not strange that the president should recommend its retention and that the necessary reduction of revemue be made by cutting down tariff taxes If the reduction should be made in this way $5 of the tribute paid by the people to manu facturers would be cut off for every §1 cut off from the revenue. The high tariff protec- tion was defended on the ground of the ne cessity of protecting American labor against European pauper competition, A more false, heartless and groundless pretext had never been invented to justify or cover up a great WrOng. A It was on the farmers of the country that the protective tariff fell with the most crush- ing weight. Wool should be placed on the free list, but it ought to be done in the inter est of the consumer, not of the mauufac turer, To allow the manufacturer of free untaxed wool 40 or 30 per cent protection for the manufactured article would be an out He regarded sugar as the best reve paying item on the tariff list and as one car. rying with it less of ncidental burden than any other, and thought it would therefore be » to legve the duty on SUEAr as it was attention of the people could not be di verted frow the real questions at issuc 1888, hy the scctional, ‘‘bloady n vass already commppced by the tepubl v party for the purpdse of blinding the DPEOR with passion so thay might not sce how and by whom thev were being plundered. At the close of Mr. Cake's speech the senate resumed the consideration of the bill to pro- vide for the admission of South Dakota and the organization of ‘tne territory of North Dakota. Mr. Turpiq spoke in _opposition to the bill of the majorily of the committee and in support of that of the minority. South shirt” iél | Dakota, he said, wae not a_territory, or a di- vision of the union; it was merely a geograph- ical expression. Ho denied the right of the people of aterritory to establish a division of it and said that the people of the wholé Union had the right to be heard s to the pro- priety of such division. There had been an expression of popular will at & convention hold In Aberdeen in December last. The people of the whole territory were against division and desired an enabling act as pro- vided in the minority bill Mr. Cullom spoke in favor of the majority bill, Keviewing the history of the question, he declared that every instance where a vote was taken i favor of themadmission of the state of South Dakota, the republican sena- tors had all voted for it and the democrats all against it, and when the bill went to the house of representatives that distinguished democratic body referred it to t mmitte on territories where it was once reported back adver This _territor d been knocking at the doors of congress for years, with a population very much larger than any other territory ever ailmitted as a state. Tho whole opposition to the admission of Dakota was based on the fact that the democrats did not want any further political complications thrust upon the country until after the next presidential election Mr. Butler of South Carolina said that he had voted steadily to admit the whole of Da- kota as a state and would do 8o now. Mr. Cullom, continuing, said: “The fig- ures of the electoral collegeswill be changed before 1802, You may prevent us changing the figures through the admission of South Dakota, but we intend to change the figures by an honest vote of the states alrcady in. I'think I am warranted in saying that this bill has come to be a subject of serious caucus convention by the democrats of the two houses, and 1 suppose it has been de. creed that no bill shall pass congress admit- ting Dakota as a state after the next presi- dential election, Mr. Butler—I am sure my friend from Illinois will not require the votes of that territory at the next clection. 1 understand he has been announced as a republican can- didate. 1 think he will have enough votes without Dakota, Mr. Cullom [laughing]—T think so, too, but still 1 would hike to have them. “Perhaps,” Mr. Butler resumed, amiable fricnd from Iowa may hav thing to say on the subject. Mr. Allison intimated by a gesture that he had nothing to sa ““Then perhaps the senator from Vermont may have something to say,” suggested Mr. Butler. “I shall have something to say on the sub- ject,” was Mr. Edmunds’ response. The senate proceeded to executive business and soon adjourned till Mon “our some- House. ‘WasniNaToN, April 12,—The house met a 11:45 this morning, in continuation of the ses- ion of Wednesday, April 4. Reed of Maine, instantly demanded the regular order. Ran- dall of Pennsylvania, asked unanimous con- sent to make a tement, but was shut off by shouts for the regular order from the re- publican side. Cox of New York, moved to adjourn, and at the demand of Reed the yeas and nays were ordered on this motion. The_house, by a vote of 130 to 133, refused to adjourn. The anriouncement was received with loud cheers by the republicans. McMillan moved a call of the house tocom- pel the attendance of absentees. On a vive voce vote the demaund was defeated and on a standing vote the democrats suddenly changed tactics and voted against their own motion in order to gllow another vote on ad- journment which as suddenly moved by Cox, in the hope that stragglers enough had come into the house since the first vote to change the result. The vote resulted: Yeas, 148; nays, 187, so that the house was declared adjourned until to-morrow. The democrats in their turn made the ball ring with their applause to celebrate the breaking of the great deadlock in its ninth day. Randall’s purpose in secking the floor was to preseut a resolution declaring Thursday, December 6, Saturday, December 8, and Tuesday, December 11, set aside for consid- eration of the direct tax bill, which shall be at 4 p. m. Tuesday, December 11, reported to the house with amendments, and the previ- ous question considered as ordered on the amendments: bill engrossed and read a third time and a vote taken on the passage of the bill.
