Lou McCoy was placed in durance vile on the charge of kecping an assignation houso on Lower Broadway. She denied the charge, and alloged that she was conducting both herself and her house in a_proper man- ner.

It would have cost from &3,000 to 85,000 to have secured the encampment of 1800, and the city would have ‘benefited by five times that omount.

NOTES FROM THE COURTS, A Bazaar For St, Bernard's Hospital— Accident to a Thoughtless Passenger—Charity In Controversy. Noland's Victim Lingers. The case of Kittie Edwards, the woman who was shot by the suicide, John Noland, several days ago, is attracting considerable attention among the medical men of the city. When first visited by a physician, the latter declared that she could not live twelve hours. However, she did live twelve hours, and has been constantly improving ever since. That this should be so seems very remarkable, considering the course taken by the bullet, which was of thirty-two calibre, It entered the skull about half an inch above the left eye, passed through the brain, and the physician is of the opinion that, after striking the rear wall of the skull, the ball glanced downward, and is now located about two nches to the rear of the base of the left ear. The patient has lost fully four ounces of brain fiber and several small pieces of the skull. The woman has recov- ered consciousness, and is able to converse with her attendants and make known her wants, If she recovers, it will be little less than a miracle, yot her physician says that shé has a fair show of recovery. It.is a case very rarely met with, and will go on_record as one of the remarkable affairs that are found in the annals of surgery. — - St. Bernard's Bazaar. Preparations are nearly completed for the bazaar to be given for the benefit of St. Ber- nard’s hospital, during the week beginning Aprii 22, The affair promises to be the most successful one of its kind ever held in this city. Many elegant and useful arti- cles have been donated by kind friends; and there will be an abundance of well filled booths under the management of the various societies. A valuable cot will be disposed of by tickets at $1 each. An elegant gold watch ‘will be voted to the most popular youg lady. A beautiful dressing case, the finest ever brought to this city, will be soid by tickets. A very fine diamond ring and numerous other articles will also be disposed of. There will be a special attraction for each evening, Among them will be a grand concert in which Mrs. Arnold, Lieutenant Kinzie and Mr. Lombard, of Omaha, will participate. The opera “‘Penelope,” full of fun and humor, will also be given by home talent. The Arion club, of Omaha, has kindly consented to assist. Everybody is invited to help aiong this worthy charity, both by their presence during the bazaar and their contributions, which will be thankfully received by the sis- ters of the hospital. —_———— Badly Bumped. A passenger on the electric motor line met ‘with a severe accident yesterday afternoon. As an east-bound car neared Twenty-third street, about 4:15 o’clock, Ben Johnson, liv- ing at the corner of Twenty-third street and Avenue D, stepped to the front platform, opened the gate and stood on the step, in- tending to get off at the crossing. He closed the gate after him, but it pulled through, throwing him from the step. He fell back- ward, his head striking the end of one of the ties. He was purtially stunned, and assisted on board again and brought up town to the of- fice of Dr. Bellinger, who dressed the wound, There was a terrible scalp wound, the cut being fully three inches in length. The skull was not fractured. The unfortunate man sustained seyveral painful bruises about the back, but will entirely recover in a short tims, - No blame for the accident can attach, to the company, as the forward plattorm is reserved for the motorman, and is not for the use of pussengers, Civil and Uncivil. In the district court yesterday the case of Grahl vs Shea was on trial. Grahl hoids a mechanic’s lien on Shea’s residence. Shea settled in full with the contractor, and sup- posed the sub-contractors were settled with. The case was not completed when court ad- journed. Durmg the afternoon three prisoners con- fined in the county jail were ordered re- leased. Charles Bauman, who has been in- carcerated for the past s1x months for com- plicity in the larceny of a_watch chain from Robinson Bros., was one of those released. His pals were sent across the state. Charles Perry, the other one released, was indicted for forging a check on D. F\. Eicher. He is a colored man, and was steward at the rooms of the Council Blufts club at the time of his arrest. The third was E. A, Raymond, who was indicted - for adultery with a woman who is now living with her husband in Omaha. The husband was the complainant anc prosecut- ing witness, but he now refuses to return to Towa and testify against Raymond. ‘This took all the wind out of the sails of the pros- ecution, and nothing remained but to dis- charge the prisoner. A I Sweet Charity. To the Editor of Tnr Bee: I can not quite understand that article in your paper about me. AllIcan make out of it is thatsome respectable German citizens of Council Bluffs want to find out if I spent any of the dimes and quarters they contributed toward Ger- icke's funeral for beer. Please tell them that I hadDlenty of money of my own to re- fresh myself on that occasion, but if any of them begrudge the dime or quarter they can come to me and receive that big sum back any time during my life. Once more I thank all contributors and remain, Yours Sincerely, J. M. LANMCKE, e ) The New Motor Line. A petition to the city council has been pre- pared by the projectors of the new motor line, asking that certain streets it this city be declared by ordinance oven to their tracks and tho operation of their line. The prinei- pal route will be from the end of the Union Pacific bridge up Ninth avenue to Third street, south to Tostevin, east to South avenue, thence toward the Deaf and Dumb institute to the city limits, Several other streets are asked for, among them being Eighth street, from the north to south city limits, but this is strongly objected to by propertyowners. The route above stated is the key to the whole situation, how- ever, as from the terminus ou South avenue the Chautauqua assembly grounds are easily accessible by way of the Mosquito creek val- y, and Manawa is close at hand on the southwest. Thus the line would reach these desired suburbs, as well as covering the ontire south- ern portion of vhe city. The branch lines would reach to tho north. The parties inter- ested talk freely regarding the line on this side, but are silent when the bridge is men- tioned. A deal 18 on foot to secure a lease of the roadway of the bridge, and until some answer is received the interested parties re- fuse to mention it. i The Incomes of Actors.

WOMEN DISSECTORS. Why Bless Yom the Fair Knife Wielders Don't Even Wince. A roporter for the Cincinnati En- quirer recently visited the dissecting room of the woman’s medical college there thus describes the sights there: On the common wooden table lay a corpse. It was that of a woman past middle o, Around it stood seven women, whose years ranged from eighteen to forty- five. They wore long aprons that came from their necks to their heels, their bonnets were off and they were eagerly working over the remains with their heads bent close and their nimble fingers moving back and fro, as if they were picking out nuggets of gold.. One of the ladies, short and plump, with her hair done up pompadour, and a olain gold ring on her left hand and a seal amethyst on her right little finger, was at the head of the table, and as she stood over the head of the corpse,whose ‘zhnstly features almost touched her 1ps, she peerod as if looking nto the very intricacies of the head and face. In their left hands THE WOMEN ALL HAD PINCERS or forceps, and with these they deftly grabbed the flesh, and with a scalpel in the right hand they slit little cuts off frem the skin. Then iuscles were grabbed by the forceps that they held, and, lifting them up, all the material was cut from them until the muscles stood out like a long string. The women were dissecting. The scene was in the garret of the Female Medical college, on George street. A small cannon stove at the foot of the body warmed up the room suffi- ciontly, and when the blaze went down bits of material thrown in flashed up with a sizzle and a glow. One of the young ladies had just come from some town in Kentucky. She held her forceps at arm’s length and stood apart and off from the stiff as though there was something corrupting about it. She had a long nose and bright, black eyes, and snapped out with vigor, “Oh, me shall NEVER GET USED TO THIS NASTY WORK. “‘Oh, yes, you will,” said the amiable and scholarly demonstrator. ‘‘Don’t be afraid; get rifiht up to the material. '] 'heyre, do you know what that muscle is?’ *‘No, I do not.” “It’s the Sartorius. It enables the tailor to sit cross legged,” and grabbing the muscle that runs from the hip down the inside of the thigh to the knee-cap sho pulled it, and up came the foot and ankle of the corpse close by the Ken- tucky girl’s head. The lady was working on a corpse all by herself. Its sides had been tak~un out, and ahout all there was left that had not been chopped up or hacked to pieces was the left knee, ankle and foot. This looked white, but shriveled. The demonstrator, Dr. Lewis, wore anapron like the ladies, and held the scalpel and forceps like an expect. He ad a long LATIN NAME FOR EVERY MUSCLE And sinew, every artery and nerve, and as he selected them out of the dif- herent parts of the body and asked ““What is this?” ‘‘What is it functions?” it soon became evident that dissection was no child’s play, and that one of the first requisites was a prodigious mem- ory. There was no odor in the dissecting room—no putrid smell of dead and de- caying matter., The corpses had been carefully embalmed, o that there was not even the faintest aroma that could offend. 02 A noticeable feature of the dissectin room was that the women all nppem‘efi in earnest. There were no jokes, and sach seemed bent on learning, no mat- ter how disagreeable the work. Several of them had been nurses and were used to the sick, the dead and the dying, and some of them had the appearance of women who would scream at a mouse or go into hysterias at a ghost. The demonstrator at last took a posi- tion at the head of the body, and, call- ing the attention of all, said: ‘‘And this is for all of you,” proceeded to make a couple of INCISIONS IN THE THROAT and pointed out the defferenee between laryngotomy and tracheotomy. The one was performed above Adam’s apple, the other below. He soon found the artery that had to be tied, but some- thing took to bleeding, and hence the danger, then picked out each of the muscles and hung a jaw-breaking Latin name on to each that made the young ladies say *‘Oh, dear,” and one of them got her anatomy, aud, shutting her eyes, repeated it over and over again 50 as to tack 1t fast on the tablets of her memory. The demonstrator minutely described the operation on the Emperor Fred- erick’s throat, and explained what Sir Morrell Mackenzie did, at which the medical world stood aghast. The WHITENESS OF THE BODIES was something that astounded the re- porter. Neither of them had thedried- up, mummified appearance so common to material that is ordinarily found in the dissecting room. The features of each were preserved so that iaentifica- tion could have been a matter of no dif- ficulty. Though the whiteness has a dead sort of paleness devoid of that of the living, beneath the flesh of which courses the warm arterial blood, giving the flush of health and glow of vitality. One of the lady students came in late, and she neither took off her hat nor put on an apron, but, removing her gloves, took up a pair of forceps and scalpel and proceded at once to scraping the flesh off one of the legs without any hem- ming or hawing. Perhaps she had just come from alate breakfast. Atany rate, the work seemed to have no more effect on her than making a bed or washing a an. “Doctresses do well,” said the dean, Dr. Reed, as he passed rapidly through the room. “V\Ph_v, a young lady who graduated two years ago, and who wasa fine anatomist, settled out in Washing- ul).‘u territory, and unow she writes me that SHE HAS SAVED THIRTY THREE HUN- DRED DOLLARS.” “Yes, but this handling of dead bodiss—there’s something ghastly anout it, especially for a woman? ‘*No, there is not—not a bit of it. That is all mawkish sentiment. There is no reason why @ woman should not make as good a surgeon as a man, with perseverance and intelligence, Why, the emperor of Hayti was operated upon by a woman surgeon a few months ago in Paris, Andlha time is fast approach- ing when to ladies will be delegated certain delicate surgical operations, which possibly they may be fitted to dexterously perform.” - A HAUNTED PALACE- CAR, How a Railroad Man Saw the Ghost Y of A, A, Talmage. ‘*No, I wouldn’t ride 1n that car if the inducements were a_free ride from San Francisco to New York. Itisanun- lucky vehicle.” 8o spoke Colonel J. H. Woodward of the Wabash road, according to the San Francisco Examiner. His attention had - just been called toa dispatch in one of the morning papers stating that C.

Hays! car,” said he, ‘‘is never mentioned wmong certain men without recalling queer memories. I am one of those men. ‘‘The car is an elegant piece of work- manship and was built expressly for A. A. Talmage nt the time that he was eneral manager of Gould’s Missouri ’acific system. Later on, when he be- came general manager of the Wahash system under its receiver, he still re- tained the car and traveled hundreds of miles in it. ‘“‘In the summer of 1877 he was taken ill, and one day started northward from St. Louis 1n this car, bound for a short vacation in Michigan. The train had hardly reached Peru, Ind., when he suddenly died, Hays then became his successor and the car was assigned to his use. In March of last year I was in St. Louis, and was invited by Hays to travel to Chicago with him in the car, and Chandler, the general passenger agent of the road was in the party. We pulled out of St. Louis in good style about 10 p. m., and were soon humming merrily along. Probably an hour after starting Chaudler retired, and Hays pointed to the bedroom at one end of the car and told me it was at _my ser- vice. I was tired and prepared to take a good sleep. 1 lnckc(l the door of the room and surned out one of the two sus- pended lamp lights. I fell asleep al- most instantly. “How long I had been asleep I can- not tell, but I was awakened by some one pressing hard upon my arm. My first thought was that a®thief had got into the car, and entered my room. It was as dark as a_closet, and I distinctly remember that I had not turned out the lamp. I feltconvinced that a thief was in my room. “These thoughts passed through my mind quick as a flash, and yet all this time I felt_the mysterious pressure on my arm. I was frightened, but did not utter a word, except when first being disturbed, to ask, ‘Who's there?’ nor had I jumped out of bed. My head was propped up and I was lying on my left side. The pressure of the intruder’s | hand was on my left shoulder. “My feelings may be imagined. It seemed that some one had administered chloroform to me, and as its influcnce was dying away I was making a desper- ate effort to throw off the spell of the drng. “Suddenly I saw standing before me, by the side of the bed, the figure of a man. I thought it must be all a dream, and with my right hand rubbed my eyes vigorously. Just then the figure said: ‘So 1t is you, colonel, that I meet here.’ Then I recognized the voice and figure of Talmage. “I had known bhim well when alive. He was my brother-in-law,and for years we had maintained relations of friend- ship. I cannot give you an idea of what my thoughts were at that momeut, I did not say a word. - I could not speak. Tt was not on accotint of fright. Some- thing seemed to have taken away my will power. I feltlike one entranced. “The figure that stood before me was that of Talmage as I had seen him a hundred times in life. I wanted to utter a kindly greeting, but was para- lyzed, He seemed as if trying to stretch out one of his hands for me to grasp, but when I tried to reach out my, right hand I fell flat on my back in the bed, verfectly helpless and totally un- able to raise my head again. **‘Colonel, it wagon that bed that I died, and had to leave all my people and friends.” With these words his figure disappeared. Silently as it had come into the room it departed, and all I could hear was the clatter of the car wheels. “Ilay awake until the first rays of dawn, and then got up. I found myself as week as a babe. Ilooked at the door and found it locked as tightly as when I retired on the preceding night. Both lamps were out, and the only explana- tion I have as to why the light went out is that it was turned down so low that it was put out by the jolting of-the car. “You may imagine I did not feel par- ticularly refreshed that morning. My mind was troubled, and my face showed it. The hour was early and no one was, up except the colored porter. He had been with the car two years or more with Mr. Talmage. He noticed the troubled look in my face, and expressed surprise at my getting up so early.” “No, I did not sleep well last night, Jim,’ T said by way of reply to him. [ *Then with a nervous twitch of the mouth and in a frightened whisper, he asked, ‘Did you see Massa Talmage’s spirit last night, kurnel?’ ‘‘Did Mr. Talmage die in that room, Jim?’ T asked. *“‘Yes, kurnel* and free or four peo- glednt have slept in dat room since den ave told me dey see Massa Talmage's spirit. Idone don’t like to go in dat room after dark, kurnel,” was his reply, “I then related my experience and told him never to mention the matter, and this is the first time I have spoken about itsince.” [ —. A Muscular Ohristian. What a brave, muscular looking christian Rev. Robert Collyer is, "‘fn the New York Star. I saw him lately coming out of his Church of the Mes- siah, and he looked like a sturdy yeo- man of a past generation. He is a marked contrast to many of his pulpit brethern. There i very little of the regulation evangelist style about his dress or figure. He is a modest man too, in his ways and life. He lives in a small brick house on East Thirty-ninth swreet, and, unlike many of his fash- ionable brethren, no butler guards him from intrusion. He requires no card or password from the stranger who calls to see him, His houso is open atike to the !voor and rich-—-to the poorest, indeed, n preference to any one else. He has a good salary, he lives moderately, but he never saves a cent. If you would know why, watch his doorsteps for a single day and note the men and women to whose appeals the great hearted preacher listens and responds. Then you will not wonder that he has no bank account on this earth. —_——— The High Palms of Cey'on. Ceylon people are interested in a riv- alry as to who shall find the highest palm tree.
