BEE! WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 27; 1830 SOMEBODY ALWAYS LAWING Old Disputes Coming Up Regularly For an Airing. MR, POPPLETON'S OPEN LETTER. Veterans Receive a Benefit From the Coffers of Uncle S8am—Gene and Personal Cap- ital Notes, 1029 P Staeer, LixcoLy, Feb. 26, The case of Sherwin & Co. vsJ. P, Gib- Bons, on trial to-day before Judge Field and a jury, provokes considerable interest in conrt circles, It promises to lnst throughout the day, In April, 1857, Gibbons owned ten ncres of land a little north of Lincoln. He put this land into the hands of the plaintiffs for sale on terms. A proposition Was mado for its purchase by Mrs. Bond, of Lincoln, with whom, in this stage of the transaction, was associated Mrs, Clara Bewick-Uolby, of Beatrice, The defendant declined the terms then offered, but he allowed some variance it the conditions, by which the first puyment should be 500 instead of 2,230, though the time payments wore so arranged that at the end of thirty days the defendant was to get the identical sum that he was to have had under the original terms, 'he t saction, it ap- peared, was ratner a large one, the total pur- chage price for the ten acres being £15,000, of which about nhalf would remain in mort- gage. The plaintifis allege that on those terms they sold the land and got @ #500 deposit from Mrs, Bond and Mrs, McClellen. It will now be seen that Mrs. McClellan becawe as- sociated with Mrs. Bond in the purchuse of the property in question, and claimed $400 commission. The defendant denies the au- thority of the agency through which the sq was made, aud sets up that the deal was not closed within the time nor to the parties stipulated to whom it should be sold at the selling pri 1t is hardly probabie that the case will b given to the jury before night. Tn the cuse of Matthews vs Cropsey, the Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff for the sum of $2i2 and cost of suit. 1t seets that Referee Johnson fined W. R Smith, Mr. Burr and Mrs, Barr without au- thority, At loast Judge Iield so decided. They did not have to pay the each im poscd, and in justice to them it is_well to state that they were not put under arrest. It seems that Mr. Bare and daughter de- clinea to answer certain questions in_aid of the exceution in favor of the Quincy Nationa bauk, under instructions of Attorney Snuth, and Mr. Johnson imposed a fing> upon them in the sum stated and ordered them com- mitted until the sum was paid. i5ut it was the opinion of the judge in open court that the referce had gone beyond his proviuc and so decided. This explodes some of the seusational work in that alrcady famous case. Supreme Court Proceedings. The following gentlemen were aduntted to practice: Ralph W.

Omana, Feb. 25, 1880.—To the Live Stock Sanitary Commission, Lincoln, Neb.— Gentlemen: I am informed that it is pro- posed to repeal that portion of chapter 4, of the compiled statutes of Nebraska, provid- ing for a state vetcrinarian and defining his duties and powers. As a person interosted - in standard bred and high bred trotting horses, 1 wish to pro- test against such repeal. I am contident thut the pecuniary benetits of the Law to this state have s excecded the cost of operating it, under the law, five to one at least. Corn and live stock are the foundation stones of the wealth of the state. No species of live stock is increasing in volume aund value 1 the state at so rapid a rateas horses. Some of the vest horses in the union are now bred and owned in the state. No man can cure or check hog cholera. But the contagious and cvidemic disen: w0 which horses are subject are understood and the methods of prevention are piain and ef- fective. The avers market value of the horse exceeds that of every other species of live stock at least three to one; heuce, there must be a vast increase in its production and value. With the law as it now stands, and an eMcient service under it, it is the safest, most profitable and best spegies of live stock to breed and “own. With thi taw repealed, and no other substi- tuted n its place, it will be the most hazard- ous species of live stock to breed and own. At this stage of the legislative session, it repealed, nothing can be substituted in its place. In my judgment the state receives in enefit five times the cost of the commission. 1 respectfully urge therefore that the law be od in its present form. If abuses have crept into 1ts admisteation, cure them, but do not destre Le law. I hope the com- mission cert itself to prevent what secmus to be a threateued disaster to the state. Yours very truly, A. J. POrpLETON, Syracuse Investment Company.

The Story of Depravity Preying Upon Foulishness, When Trre Ber went out into Nebraska last weelk, one copy of it earricd sorrow into a happy home, for it told a father where he might find an erring daughter. It told how an incoming train at the Webster street depot brought in a white girl, who was met by only one friend, and that a colored man of unsavory reputation, a runner for a house of prostitution on Douglas street. Names conld not be given, but a description was, and that description answered its purpose in atwo-fold manner. In the first place it preventea the girl from being placed in a house of ill repute, as the sickly, saddle colored negro who was her escort was afraid of the consequences, and she secured a_situ- ation in the Kitchen of the Merchants' hotel. it told her father to look for her in and ho did. erday morning he came in from Boone county, Ta., and at once proceeded to police headquarters, where he produced a number of lotters proving beyond a doubt his re- spectability. He gave the name of Gustave Stramberg, and said the girl was his daugh- ter Jennie. He allowed her to come to Omaha for employment, and while there she became acquainted with Jonn Dean, the mulatto porter of @ brothol. Part of this coming to his ears, he brought her honie, but she managed to get away agaim and was re- turning to Omaha, when the reporter saw her, and learned that Dean had sent her § for traveling expenses. An officer accom- panied the father to Dean’s “place of busi ness,” where that worthy said it was a case of mistaken . identity, and that it wi @ brother of his who tad taken her away. Ho also gave a wrong address as to the place in which she was working. ‘The police found these to bo misleading, and_that Dean was deliberately lying. The girl was lo- ¢ erchants, where she said she was going 10 remain until she married Dean being unaware that the law in this state will not authorize mixed marriages. As sho was of age, her father could not compel her to return with him, and nothing could be done with the negro. Later in the day, however, a colored woman residing on Twelfth street, sworc out a_warrant against Dean on the harge cf assauit, and new features were de- veloped. It was learned that he had a wife and three children of his own color, boarding with “‘Aunty” Fanny Hall, and that wh anything disturbed his peace of mind he. re taliated by abusing them. He accordingly celebrated his release from the police st tion by administering the usual castigation but to such an extent that his landlad swore out the warrant. He is behind th bars on that charge, and will probably ri main_there. In the meautime Stramberg will_have this dditional opportunity of showing his daughter the utter worthl ness of the black wretch who was endeavo A Plans of Mice and Men Not_ so Hostetter's Stom- to the Spot it is *Tho {Best L Gang aft aglee.” ach Bitters.

Fogelstrom had Some Bills to Pay.” On Washington’s birthday and Saturday night a higely advertised entertainment was given in Exposition hall. It was entitled “The Life of Joseph,” and was illustrated by “twelve living tableaux.” There were also several other features of a musical na- ture. The entertainment was advertised to be given for the benefit of Immanuel hos- pital, the manager of which is the Rev. Mr. Fogelstrom, late pastor of the Swedish Lutheran church., The entertainment, finan cially, was a failure, and the failure has re acted injuriously upon almost everybody con- nected with it. The Rev. Mr, Fogelstromn was seen and questioned about the matter and expressed regret at having had anything to do with it. He stated that on the Uth of this month, two parties claiming to come from Galesburg, 11, namely, Charles Robson and Prof. Dahlbom, had come to him and shown him a programme containing tho tableaux referred to and requested his permission for the pro- duction of the same for the benefit of the hospital. jectionable and as Mr, Fogelstrom is deeply interested 1n his new institution, he thought that any money he might receive in this way would help him along in his laudable under- taking. A contract was drawn up and signed by M Robson and Danlbom guaranteeing one-half of the proceeds, after all expenses should be paid, to the hospital. Mr, Fogelstrom was under’ the impression, and this impression, it seems, was encour- aged by the articles of agreement, that he had nothing todo but allow the use of the name of lmmanuel hospital and receive 50 per cent of the net proceed: He had some douby, however, in entering 1o the agree- ment, and steadfastly refused in every way to allow his name in connection with the en- terprise. 'he cntertainment was extensively adver- tised and billed 1n the name of Mr. Fogel- strom us weil as that of Rev, Mr. Harsha, who also had never authorized the use of his name and who, in fact, had never been con- sulted in the matter. A few nights before the ance took place the projectors of it s0 Mr, [Fogelstrom and gave hm to understand “that Mr. Minor, manager of Exposition hall, would not allow the use of latter for the benefit of the hospital unless Muv. Fogelstrom's name was connected with it. This rather.strengthened Mr, Fogel- strony's suspicions of his manager.al friends, vet, under the circumstances he reluctently appended his name to the contract for the use of the hall, which provided for the payment of $10 a night, and this was to be taken out of cach night's receipts, In the meantime, Mr, Fogelstrom made inguiries in regard to the gentlemen who Lad chiarge of the enter- tainment. and found that some of them had been conducting themseives in a manner,to warrant the belief that the entertainment wonld prove a fizzle. He therefore saw Chief Seavey, who advised him that nothing could be done except allow the entertain- ment o go on and await results, Mr. Foge! strom, 1n the meuntime, was compelled to go away to @ conference in the centerof the state and left Liere to represent him Messrs, A. Jobnson and P, E. Flodman. The night of the performance arvived gnd by this time Mr. Fogelstrom had made up his mind to tako sufficient to pay himself from the box- ofice receipts for tickets soid, but found that place in charee of an express driver in whose house Prof, Dahlbom had been board ing. The professor resolutely refused M Fogelstrom permission to enter the oftice and continued to have his man sell tickets, When the performance came to a close, the box man was nowhere to be found. It was suspected that he had securcd himself with sufficient money to pay the board bill which it was said I’rof, Dalhbom had incurred. Saturday night the same state of gffairs existed, although in the mean. time Mr. Fogelstrom tried to sell tickets to fricnds of his throughout the city for the purpose of in some manner getting hunsell out of the dificulty iu which he had been placed, Mr. Fogelstron's two friends men- tioned ubove, kept tally, however, of the re. ceipts of both , and found the total to have been $111 besides §2.50 in complimen- tary tickets, M of which were given by Robson. Che total expenses of Mr. Fogelstrom including the hali and extra work were §102, which amount was charged to Mr, Fogeisteom, Thyt gentleman sold §20.75 worth of tickets himself, which still left him in the liole §72.25, Of this amou Lowevel Mer, Minor, of the uall, cut off § leaving verform- The programme seemed unob- ! Mr, Fogelstrom #40.75 out by the enterprise, and without receiving one cent for the hos- pital. These are Mr. Fogelstrom's expendi tures, bat it scems that Mr. Schmidt, cos- tumer, furnished 850 worth of materlal to Mr. Dahlbom, for which he has yet to re- ceive pay, and the printer for his pasters, tickets and dodgers is still to be satisfied, Tuesday the costumerhad a warrant issued for the arrest of Danibom, but up to noon yes- terday the arrest hiad not been made.

Word was received here Monday that Paul Vandervoort had been appointed gen- eral superintendent of the railway mail ser- vice. The announcement caused a .great dealof surprise to all interested not because it was assured that the appointment bad really been made, but that the usufruct chief cler should aspire to such a position. The oftice of general superintendent of the mail se s an appointive one, the appoint- ing power residing in the postmaster ge cral. The incumvent of the latter oftice will retire on the 4th of next month and will be succeeded by a member of President Harri- son’s cabinet. With the latter gentleman will rest the duty of appointing the new gen- eral superintendent, who will unuoubtediy be a republican. For t reason that the postmaster general has mot yet taken his position, the rumor of Vandervoorts appointment may well be doubted. A re- port, probably more in accordance with the facts, is that the ofice has been tendered nim in the event of his being able to secure a certain backing in_ this state, as well as in other parts of the country. Vandervoprt is certainly working in this direction. He s now circulating a petition in Lincoln which is intended as an indorsement of his aspira- tion to the office mentioned. It is stated that several of the members of the legisla- ture signed the document in the hope the big political mendicant might secure the place; a number signed it in a merely machine style, while quite a number refused absolutely to attach their signaure: One of the features of the case is the sto: that Vandervoort's claim is being Senator Manderson. It is said that the un- derstanding was arrived at during the last department encampment at Kearney of the G. A. R. The senator, Vandervoort himself, and a number of, strikers wero present when the deal was made. The rumor comes from the east, where in_fact, for some time it has been known that Vandervoort wanted the oftice in guestion. In conversation with a reporter, Chief Clerk Murphy, of the railway mail service of this district, said that the report had come here from Chicago by meaus of men on the fast mail train, who, he said, frequently came in contact with people who early ascer- tained everything that was about to trans- pire. . A prominent citizen who had heard of Vanderbum’s aspirations said it was a dis- grace to the republican party to think of again putting so great a barnacle 1 a posi- tion of so much importance. The present in- cumbent is a Mr. Bancroft. His chief clerk, aman named Grant, as also a Mr. Jameson, who preceded Mr. Bancroft, are the other candidates for the position, is ac- Com- The soft glow of the tea ro quired by ladies who use Pozzoni plexion powder.

They ave all north oY Cuming street and extend from the river ts the bluffs, Irom the recoras and recollections of real cstato men of the city it appears that a er portion of the property in_question was a part of 160 acres pre-empted from the government by G. C. Monell, who platted it as North Omaha addition No. 1, and sold lots under the title, Mr, Probasco’ was one of the purchasers, and bought a large number of the lots, paying an average of 75 cents a piece for thew. This was in September, 1560, A vear or 8o afterwards the goverament, for some reason, canceled Monell's title, and the property was then pre-empted by Robert Shields. A few of those persons who held lots under deeds from Monell, including Byron Reed, succeeded in effecting a com- promise swith Shields, although the titles they held were clearly invalid. The records show 1n the matter of the Probasco lots a transfer from Monell and wife to Probasco; from Probasco to C. IL Tyler and wife, and from them to Cynthia Ann Probasco, wife of William H., and the property now stands in her name, as far as the Monell deeds are concerned. Unless dead, the power of attorney 0 would evidently be - It has never been as- serted before that persons owning pieces of this property under deeds from Monelialone, were entitled to hold the land. In addition to these lots Probasco claimed to own property on North Nicholas street under deeds from the Old Omaha City com- but it has been proven thut the com- pany never had a title to the property sold, as the real estate men say, Probasco’s title must also be invalid.

BLOOMINGTOY, 111, Feb, 26.—(Special Tel- egram to Tue Bee.]—There was quite an exodus of McLean county farmers yester- ay, their destination veing Nevraska. The party consisted of six families, numvering in all forty-five people. The train consisted of one passenger coach and six freight car loads of live stock, farm implements and house- hold goods. The colony, which goes from Lexington, will locate near St. Edwards, Boone county, Neb, They are all well-to-do people and prosperous farmers, Pardoned by the Governor. Mr; Arorts, Feb, 26.—Hal Reid, son of a prominent physician of this © who was sentenced a year ago to the penitentiary tor fifteen years for a criminal assault on Maud Compson, has been pardoned. His friends have been working steadily fora pardon ever since his conviction, and it is asserted that some new evidence, going to show that the estimony of the girl and her friends was en- tirely false, influenced the governor in his ction.
