Oden, who, until eight years ago, was a resident of this city. He came into town yesterday, and in so far as he was able, renewed acquaint- ance with a number of his old friends. There were many, however, whom he covid not meet because age, infirmity and other untoward circumstances had led to their being numbered among the revered ones whose abiding place is now in the great beyond. 'The colonel looks woll, enjoys ex- cellent health, and is the representative of tho Swedish Importing and exporting com- pany, which deals in Scandinavian delicacies, and of which he proposes to establish a branch in this city, of which, it is likely, ex- Murshal Westerdah! will have charge. Williams Under a Cloud. In answer to call the patrol wagon was sent to the south part of the city last night and returned with John Dixson and Henry Schluter. who insisted that the man in their custody, giving the name of Joe Williams, be locked up for attempting to outrage the seven year old daughter of Mrs. Joseph Anderson, of 2512 Leavenworth street. Thoy said that the girl, whose name is Jennie, had told that Wilfiams had led her into . collar under the Houso and_ undor promisos of prosonts of candy and fruit, had attempted liberties that caused her little brother, who had noticed the moverrent, to raise an alarm. Williams skippod out and was captured. _Sergeant Mostyn who went to the vicinity discovered that Williams had attempted the same_ trick on soveral other little girls, among them a sister of his captor, Dixson.

Several applicants for positions ou the police force were oxamincd, but only one wus appointed, Vance Field, who was ordered to veport for'duty May 1. To the Public. I An cditorial appeared in Saturday’s Re- publican headed *“Break the Combination.” We respectfully desiro to contradict the many false statements in that article which, like others lately published in that paper, is mis- loading and does us great injustice. The vitizens of Omaha are told that the con- tractors are responsible for the present labor troubles. Thoy say wo have lied to our cus- tomors, we have not kept our agroement in doing our work; they assail the architeots, they assail the contractors, they assail every respectable man who has had plans drawn, that has through his architect said to the con- tractors, *We do not want this union to rule any longer;” does the Republican think that the men that pay for theso plans are fools, and have nothing to say as to who shall figure on their work, or shall'do it We challenge the Republicah to name the men we bave licd to in not forwarding our work, or state tho work we have yed 'They say we be- lieved ourselves masters of the situ. wlion; wo reiterate we ure masters of the situation, and ure ready to do all kinds of vuilding promptly. Men are coming in every day—men who intend to bring their familics and reside here, not as was stuted a few ago, men who intend to send all their n e The Republican says we ar equal to the emergency. They had better find the emergency before they declare us unoqual to it. The Republican states wo have enly fifty non-union men at This is false.

President Bechel was on hand at the call meeting of the ity council held last night for the purpose of the approval of the contract snd bond of Johr . Dailey for the consty tion of sewer i sewerdistrict No. 69, and for receiving and acting upon the report of the ¢omumitteg on sewerage in rogard to an ordi- nance ereating the efiice of superin ut ot Dailey’s bond of $4,000 . H. McShane and Jamos Creighton bondsmen. The passage of the ordinance created con- siderable discussion. It provides that the superintendent be paid $150 a_month and the clerk #60. The expenditure of #0 for a clerk caused dissension, a number of the members not favoring the outlay. They argued that a clerk was not needed, and expressed some surprise that the ordinance increased the salary of the superintendent from $125 to $150 amonth, Those in favor of the pssage of the ordinance maintained that the new or- dinance devolved a great heap of work on the srperintendens, and that it would be neces- sary for him to have a clerk. Other speak- ers insisted that the ordinance was defec- tive, as it did not specify for how long the superintendent and_clerk were to be ap- pointed. Councilman Hascall insisted that 150 a month was_too much to pay. The prosent salary of $125 was at the rate of #4 day, Sunday included, and the speake thought that the present encumbent, whom he rated competent and faithful was sati fied with it. The ordinance was finally ferred to the judiciary committee to o ported by them to the council next Tucsday night. SCHOOL BUILDING BIDS, The Board of Education Finds None That Are Satisfactory. Messrs. McConnell, Kelley, Saville, Gray and Pratt missed but little by being absent from their posts at the special meeting of the board of education last evening. The special order of business was the consideration of bids for the construction of the proposed school buiidings on the Lake, Mason, Walnut Hill and Bancroft sites. Most of the even- ing was spent in wrangling and rosulted fin- ally in a tdeferment of action until next Mon- day evening. . The meeting commenced with the reading of twenty-nine different proposals for the construction of the prospective buildings, and an army of. contractors sat patiently in the lobby throughout the entire session. After the bids were all read it was discov- ered that they were all beyond the amount voted by the people for the construction of new buildings, Whereupon the following was presented by Mr. Felton: Resolved, That inasmuch as there are no bids offered for constructing buildings that came within the limit _authorizod by vote of the people to be expended by the board, that all bids be rejected and _contractors notified 10 brpsent now proposals one. week: from this ato. lumbing and clerk, e"u d with J. This brought out a long and dreary debato that lasted the entire evening. Hugh Clark thought it was hardly fair to ask these men to make bids again_on the same contract. Morris Morrison asked, “‘can we afford to do this? Arc we not crippled in our resources 80 that we can not do it. If we run above a certain line in our expenses we will be swamped. And that is our present sit- uation,” Mr. Coburn said that if the same plans were again presented he doybted if a single contractor would again offer a bid. Ho thought the only way out of the difficulty was to modify the proposed plans in such a manner as to make new bids necessary. Mr. Morrison moved to amend by inserting the clause that the architects be given until the next rezular mecting of the board to make such modifications us they deem neces- sary, After considerable debate Mr. 1elton mod- ified the original resolution to read that the specifications be furnished by the architects on Monday night next_at an adjourned meet- ing of the board. Mr. Morrison accepted this in lieu of his proffered amendment. Before this could be voted on Mr. Coburn moved that the portion rejocting the bids be stricken out. This brought two or three members to their feet, who claimed that such a motion was not germain, and the chairman ruled it out of order. Mr. Clark then moved that the further con- sideration of bids for school buildings be postponed until an adjourned meeting at 7:30 p. m. next Monday. Mr. Morrison moved as an amendment that the architects be instructed to be present next Monday evening and prepure to submit such changes in_ specifications as in their judgment will lighten the cost of the build- ings. " The motion s thus amended was car- ried. o PATRICK PARALYZED, He Will Not “Wote" at the Demo- i cratic Convention. Patrick Ford, the grand mogul of the Third ward, who of late has manifested un ardent dosive to represent the Omana democ- racy in the coming national convention at St. Louis, met with a_siynal defeat at the hands of his party yesterday, notwithstanding the fact that he has “spent money™ 1o get there. Patrick will go to the county “convention” and will *“wote” for himself, but that is all. The result of the democratic promises yes terday was all one way with a few excep- tions. At the Third ward polls Pat was found hard at work. Here and there only was he in his element. “Two hundred and eighty-seven majority for me und my friends.” quothe he, but that 1s all. Johu E. Boyd and Dr. Miller' aro the men who will cast their baliots for Cleveland at St. Louis Juno 9, 80 it is predicted. while Pat remains av home getting ready for next ing's campaign. Of seven delegates of each ward, Ford will get one, making a total of eight. Pat's stronghold, the third, elected the following: Pat Ford, Adam Snyder, A. Forbes, Dick Burdish, kd Rothery, Charles Fanning and Henry Parrish. Pat will vote for Pat and Snyder” will vote for Pat and from thenceforth the matter will bo doubt, The Eighth word sends six delegates five for any_ other man but Ford and the other one ugainst him, The other wards fol- lowed suit. Verily, it was a cold day for Patrick. HAVE MADE THEM A MARK.

AMUSEMENTS, Gus Williams at Boyd's, Mr. Gus Williams closed his engagement at Boyd's opera house Iast evening, repeating his greatest success, “Keppler's Fortunes,” before a large and enthusiastic audience. The part of Keppler, the eccentric German butcher, is avery happy allotment for Mr. Williams, who extracts a considerable amount of humor from the chances the role affords. While the work of this popular actor in past years has established him firmly as the leading German comedian of the day, yet the pieces in which he has appeared have never yet offered chances for the full devel- opment and exhibition of his genuine merits as an actor. There are soveral scenes in “Keppler's Fkortunes'” which are so full of pathos and human nature that the inclination to laugh at the situation is eclipsed by a gen- uine sympathy with the scenes in which the wealthy butcher figures. The supporting company is excellent throughout, and the entire performance was marked by a smooth- ness and completeness which is a rarity in any company. Mr. Williams® song, ‘“From the Cradle to the Grave,” which he sings in the last act, made a distinct ht, MR, MANTELL AT BOYD'S, Robert Mantell, an actor of ability here- tofore only known here by reputation, will make his first appearance in this city at Boyd's opera house on Friday evening next in his successful heroic drama, ‘‘Monbars." The play is an adaptation from the French of D'Eunery, and as its hero, Mr, Martell is winning great praise, TEE GRAND OPERA WOUSE. At this place of amusement the now famous play, & dramatization of the famous novel, “Dr, Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde," will be pre- sented on next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, Thore has been o great deal of coriosity to see this celebrated piece, ‘which has already attracted attention all over the country. Initare displayed the strongest of passion aud emotion. The dramatization as also the acting of the title role are by Mr. George M. Wood,.whose work in both re- spects have been elsewhere highly com- mended. TO-NIGNT. To-night Miss Goodrich wiil appear for the last time in this city, in the most entertain- ing comedy ‘‘Wanted a Husband.” This piece is full of comicality from beginning to end and will be excellently prodaced by this com| This will be the first dramatic performance of the piece in English ever given in this city. Miss Goodrich’s perform- ance last night, us well as that of her com- pany, was greeted with a full and enthusi- astic audience in the California piece, “A Straw Man.” The winners of the gold watches offered by the management were Miss Mable Kelle, ing at 2215 Captol avenue, and Sol Metz: ger, of Tenth street. 11O FEET AT THE MUSEE. Fannie Mills, a fair damsel of twent; summers, and who is said to have the feet of any person in the world, outside of Chicago, will begin an engagement at the musee Sunday evening. A pair of her shoes are now on exhibition in the window of Morse's shoe store. They are made of heavy calf, and_are thirty inches long and eight wide. Miss Mills’ papa will present any re- spectable young Omahan with 5,000 if he will marry her. There are also a host of other attractions at this place of amusement this week. THE PEOPLE'S THEATRE. Henry Parrish, the proprietor of this flourishing place of amusement, which is now nightly drawing large audiences, offers anew performance for this weelk, introduc- ing McCoy and Wischman in a thrilling 3 Snow and Golden, who play upon ve instruments; Frank and Nora ‘Williams, in their ‘‘Discoloration” sketch; the Manvilles, in sensational acts; Miss Athens, burlesque artiste; Timmons and McCloud, harp soloists and dancers together with Junie McCrea and Lizzie Parker, John J. Sellon, and the extra attraction on next Friday night of Pat Killen and Barney Smith of St. Paul, who will have a grand assault, in six rounds, Marquis of Que bury rules. This will include a laugha! after pieco, GERMAN PAREWELL AT THE BOYD, This evening at Boyd's the German com- pany will appear for the last time this sea- son in a highly entertaining society comedy with music and song, entitled ‘‘Heydeman und Sohn.” All the members will be in the cast, and the occasion and piece will be _such as 1o inspire them to their greatest efforts. The occasion will also, as it should, draw a large attendance, to bring to a close a season of German dramatic performances, which, artistically. at least, has never been excelled in Omaha. This piece closes the season of thirty performances guaranteed by the com- pany, and with its close will come to an end, the professional carcer of a number of its members. Some of them will abandon the stage, others will seck engagements else- where, so that the future of the German drama in this city, at least after what may be presented here during the summer season is beyond the knowledge of the present, In justice to the ladies and gentlemen of this company there should, therefore, be a large and enthusiastic audience present to-night to p;'uct them as the curtain falls for the last time. RAIL I;R.O-Al) RUMBLINGS. A New Time Card on the Union Pacific —Other Notes. The Union Pacific railway will put a new time card into effect to-day, in conjunction with the Saint Joseph & Grand Tsland branch, whereby the time of train No. 7 leav- ing Council Bluffs will be changed to 8:40 a. m., und Omalia 9:00 &, m., and_the arriving time at Valley to 10:25 a, m, There it will connect with the Valparaiso train arriving there at noon und at Stromsburg at 2:50 p. m., connecting with the Saint Joseph & Grand Tsland train via McCook Junction and Fairfield for Alma where it arrives at 10:00 p.m. The trainrunning opposite will leave Alma daily at 5:80 a. m., arriving at Stroms- burg at 12:05 p. m., Valparaiso 2:30 p. m. and Valloy at 4:15 p. m. connecting with - No. 8, armving at Omaha 530 p. m.O andC Council Biuffs at 6:10p. m.

Lincoln passengers will only have to make one change at Valparaiso, RAIL NOTES. g The Bee was in error when in Friday's issue it stated that Conductor Jackson, of the Union Pacifie, would represent the Omaha division of railway conductors at Topeka. A communication received from one of the members of the Omaha division states that Conductor Jackson is not a member and therefore could not represent this division On end after to-day the ay coaches on the Union Pac ‘s N 3, known as the *‘Overland """ will be taken off, to_better enable it to make time. This will add largely to_the popularity that has already been gained by this fast train.

The store room was next visited, and rolls of hand- buffed leather for tops and eighteen ounce wool dyed cloth for cushiouns (in- stead of the ordinary piece dyed)showed that nothing but the best material was used in any stage. Inquiry showed that the wheels, shafts and poles were the only things that were not made on_the premises, the former coming from Fort Wayne and_the latter from Indianapo- lis. The wheels are from a leading fac- tory, and while in progress of construe- tion are subjected to a pressure of forty tons to exclude all moisture. They are known as the *‘steel banded wheel,” and receive the finishing touches on the premises. In the blacksmith shops nothing but the finest grades of Nor iron were being used for general pur- ses, and finely tempered steel for the necessary springs. The present capac- ity of the factory is for 1,000 carts, 300 Brewster and Elliptic spring buggics, 50 “Dandy” road wagons, 200 Paragon and 300 miscellaneous.
