It was thought to implicate these men in the derailing of the B. & M. engine No. 169, on the night of De- cember 19, near Boyd’s packing house. It was proved that the prisoners were attend- mga wedding purty in the neighborhood near where the engine was thrown off tho track, but they knew nothing of the offense, They came out after the damage was done and’ laughingly abused the engineer and fireman, calling them *'scabs.” This angered the train men so much that they sent for tho police and the prisoners decamped. The men were found guilty of ~disturbing the peace, and the judge fined Carey $10 and Ryan' 8. The fines were paid and the prisoners discharged, 'he case against Dr. Freuland 1or attempt- ing to procure abortion was called out.

He was one of the first colored men that ever came to Omaha, having arrived herc in 1358, He was well known and highly esteemed by all ola residents, and twenty- five years ago was well known to every newspaper man about the city. King was the man who turned the hand press thay printed the first edition of the Omaha Repub- ican. During his early days in the news- paper prin business King was intimately acquainted with Stanley, the great African explorer. Stanley was at that time in Omaha doing newspaper worlk for eastern dailies, and it is stated was not blessed with over- much of this worlds wealth, He frequented the Republican oftice at night and watched King grind out papers, and after press hours sleot in the office. King often shared his supper with the now world renowned tray- cller.
