Ed Rosewater Cats His Record Down —Fatal Accident at the Dimmy Depot—Services in the Churches —~Minor_Kvents, The “0Old" Pacific House. The work of tearing down the old Pacific house a8 commenced, preparatory to the building upon the site of a large business block to be occupied by Eiseman & Co., of the People’s Store, The old Pacific house. is one of the most notable of the ancient landmarks.. It has stood during the most remarkable period of this city's history. It has seen the bhirth of Omaha, has secn its wonderful growth, has been here during all the remarkable changes in Council Bluffs, and lived long erough to ace the wedding of the two cities. The last meals served were for this great celegration ~—the opening of Broadway bridge. 'Then 1t seemed that the old pile of brick wi rontent tosay: “Now let thy servant depart in peac The oldest portion of the building_was put upin 1853 by Samuel S, Bayliss, Mr. Bay- liss was a remarkable man in_many respeets, At that time he owned nearly all of what is now the central portion of the city. The beautiful park which bears his name, located in the heart of the ' city, will ever keep its his memory fresh. He passed away fifteen years ago. One daughter, Mrs, Parks, still lives here. Another daughter '8 in as and a son in California. From C. B. Stons—Squire Stone, as he 18 familiarly known —learned something of the early history of the Pacific_house. Mr. Stone arrived in_Council Blufls November 10, 1853, With his family he stopped at the City hotel, a log building occupying the site of the present Ogden house. At that time the walls of the old portion of the Pacific house were up, and the building about com pleted. Bayliss at that time had for his residence a log cabin, on what is now Scott street, and about where Bray's stables are now. The business houses of the Bluffs, log ones mainly, were on Upper Broadway, in the vicinity of the present Metnodist church. Th vific hotel was built almost in a_cornfield. Frank Guittar, who still lives here, had a log store corner of Maine and Broadway, where the express oftice now is. It was in one corner of a great corn- a:d. The Pacific house was practically the first brick building erected here. While it was being put up a small brick building was built’ on Broadway, just westof the pres- ent government building. It was torn down a year or 80 ago_to make room for the new postoftice. Another building—two stories— of brick, was put up by Colonel Babbitt. just west of Where the Everett block now stands, These buildings were started about the time of the Paci house, but be- ing smaller structures, were completed sooner. The Pacific house was opened about the 1st of January, 4, but it was not fully pre- pared in all respects. A little later a frame addition was built on, containing a dining room and kitchen. This was built of green cottonwood. On the 2 therc was & grand given herc and the feet of many dancers whirled over the rough flooring, and beneath the rude roof. wall flowers had not advantuge of even plaster on the walls, . Bayliss kept the hotel for a yi more, and then leased it. Marshal Tu: V, an old resident, was for 4 time the_landlord. ‘or several years it was leased by Mr. ars, an uncle of Elias Sears. 1t was here that Colonel Poppleton, the well known at- torney of Omaha, met, 'wooed and won his wife, the daughter of the landlord, and the wedding ceremony took place berieath this roof, After Mr. Sears gave up the hotel, scveral different partics served as landlord, each for ashort time. Among these was John Jones, who was recently clerk in the hotel, and who of lte was engaged in the mail service, J. M. Palmer, for a few months, ran the hotel iu’ compauy with H. D. Washburn. That was about 1850. Afterwards Mr. Martin was landlord, and later Dr. Bragg. Mr. Bayliss resumed charge of the hotel himself. and a fire having done some damage to the building, he not oniy repaired the damage, but enlarged the hotcl greatly, expending about £0,000 in doing so. He remained us landlord as ‘well as owner until his death, which occurred beneath the same roof. For thirteen years G. W. Ferguson & Son were the proprietors. They removed to South Omaha. The successful as well as popular, ana the Pacific house was one of the c. ief resorts of the city. The old building has furnished shelter to many notables, most prominent among whom was Abraham Lincoln, who visited this ei arly in 1860, just before his nomi- nation. He remained several days looking after some private business. He had loaned money on_some land here and came here to settlo business connected with that. ‘The old Pacific was in the early years the headquarters for the Western Stage com- pany. Some of the ofticials connected with it have since become very prominent in con- nection with the railways Which have suc- ceeded the stage coach. Mr. Bayliss had built a large barn on Scott street, on the site of his little log cabin, and afterwards it was replaced by a brick one. This was used by the stage company, whose oftice was 1n the hotel. The hotel used to rent for £5,000 a year, and the store building, barber shop, bar, etc., brought i enough for years so us to leave the landlord free of rent entirely. It was the leading hotel of this part of the country for years. The old hotel has seen great changes and a8 it is being removed from the sight of the old citizens, many of them cannot but sce it g0 with regret, although gratified at the prosvect of 8o much more worthy a building to take its place, The last meals served in the hotel were those prepared last Tuesday by the Woman's Christian association for the benefit of their hospital, It seems befitting that the last use of the old building should be for philan- thropic purposes. Iu the earlier years it has been the resort of the cruder and in many cases the more vicious elements of societ in the days of frontier life, when there was more freedom of rollick, and more boldness in bunko. It has survived the primitive period ot the westward march of civiliza- tion, and having witnessed the happy and peaceful wedding of two thriving and cul- tured cities, its last offering wi to the purse which' is held open by cl manhood for the relief of the suffering and needy. s L A See Forrest Smith’s special column, e L el The Races, Yesterday was the last day of the fall trot- ting and paciug meeting of 1888 at Union park, and the attendance was most discour- aging. The gate receipts amounted to almost nothing, while the attractions were of the very best. The weather was all that could be desired, with the exception of the wind that blew half & gale during a part of the after- noon and prevented a lowering of records in some cases. The great performance of the day was the pacing of the two-year-old stallion, Ed Rosewater, the property of N. I D. Solomon of Omaha. ‘the track was at least three seconds slow owing to the wind, which raised a terrific cloud of dust and fairly shook the grand stand and amphitheater. The won- derful colt, which 1s a handsome dark gray, is splendidly bred, of fine action and great endurance, He was sired by Vasca, a son of Harold, the sire of Maud S., and his dam was Vinco, by Bellmont, by Alexander's Abdal- lah. ~ He truly @ phenomenon and food things are expocted of him in e future. '~ He has beaten the the world’s record for 2-year-old pacing, and in two days lowered it four seconds. He was valued at $10,000 previous to this per- formance, but bis owner now places him at $15,000. His performance is regarded as one of the greatest turf events of the year. 1t is very doubtful if any more racing will be witnessed_at Union park. The manage- ment has_struggled for years to keep up the rk, and the attendauce has been yery B:'ht. The track is the fastest in the west and is regarded as the fastest running track in the country. With a little outlay it could be made as fast for trotters. It has been fondly hoped that the opening of a wagon bridge was all that was needed to bring Omaha people over in force, but the result of this mecting is not flattéring to those holding that belief. It has been decided to give up the park, plat it and sell it for house lots. 1t is hoped that sufficient pressurc can be brought to bear on the management. to induce them to relinquish this plan for the pre and give it a trfal of one more season. Omaha can offer rio such advantages as this, and a vigorous effort should be made to keep up the track and give itliberal. patronage. The association has lost'over - &,000 on the park the past _season and can not afford to continue it. - The park and association stand very high with the horsemen throughout the country, and it is to be regretted that such a move as necessitates the ' abandonment of past glory and brilhant prospects for the future, The races of ‘yesterday proved very inter- esting and the'time made was very good. Thic following is the order and résuits of the races on the day's programme : The first race w the unfinished 2:40 class of the predinig. day. The horses were sent away to a fine’ start, but the heat was uninteresting. Welehinan took the lead and held it; Moilie H. and Ibis trotted prettily for sceond place. Mollie puliéd away at the turn and dashed after the leader, but he was. too fast At _the. wire they were placed Welchuian, Mollie H, Ibis, Frand. Timo—2:85!5. Moneys were awarded—Welchman first, Ibis second, Motlie H third. 2:30 TROT, The second event of the day was the $:30 trotting race, for which thore were seven en- tries and four starters. Positions were drawn as_follows: Mollic Sherman pole, Captain Hunt second, Tlalavera third, Cy- clone fourth.

Mollic Sherman was sent after Captain Hunt on the back stretch and going to the half the cait was very fast. The spectators were treated to two races during the heat. Mollie and the Captain were paived, and trotted even to the half. Cyclone' and Talavera wereten or twelve lengths behind, struggling for third place.

Darling, & well known resident: of this city for the past twenty years, lost his life. ‘Mr, Darling was employed as foreman at Chris Btraub's brick yard, and was driving s team — of mules belonging to Mk, HStraud when he met his death. The 'S8Sdummy train was just pulling into the depot when Mr. Dar- ling attempted to drive over the Tenth street crossing in front of thy -rfm-. Accounts of eye witnesses mm-r'z how the accident occurred, One story % thit the mules be- came frightened, and he could not get them off ~the track, whemr realizing his peril, he jumped from the wagon. Another story is that he apparently lost hin head and_jumped, with 1 necessity for 8o doing. Certam it is that he jumped to the track and fell, The mulesfnd wagon passed passed on and escaped ry. . Whether or not Mr. Darling was M\*m 1"by his fall will probably never be known. It appears quite proble that he was, as he hnd sufficient time 10 get off the track if such wus not the ease. The train was moving very slowly and was brought to a standstill ;aimost. immediately after striking him, but'it v us too late. The unfortunate man was struck by the point of the pilot. and the right hip was knocked over ‘fo the opposite ' side of “the body, . The _cuticle on the lewer part of the trunk was torn up, leaving the abdomen bare, but the wound which caused death “is not yet determined. There was a_deep wound found upon the forohead, but whether or not it was caused at tho time of his fall is not known. The wheels did not reach him, ns the train was stopped almost instantly. He was not de and was taken to the dummy depot. Cleaver, the Union Pacific surgeon, called to attend him. The injured man was conscious and talked rationally. . He said that he felt no pain, and made inquiries con- cerning his injuries, He also furnished in formation concerning himself and fawily. He lived about un hour and ahalf. There- mains were then removed to the undertaking rooms of Field & Estep, where the inquest will be held at 10 o'clock this morning. The deceased resided at 1929 Tostevin strect, and - leaves a wife and five children. He ws 55 years of age. He was a sober, in- dustrious man, and was highly respected by a wide circle of friends whose acquaintance he had made during his long residence in the city. .
