Emphatically Deny nt Lindy's Veracity Was Questioned in the Quaker City. Didn’c Tell Lies. The Fletcher court martial resumed the examination into the conduct of the colonel yesterday morning, tho prosecution offer- ing evidence in rebuttal. Charles J. Thomus, & livery stable keeper of the Quaker City, und an uncie of Mrs. McFarlund, was first called, and testired that the reputation of his nieco for truth and veracity was good, and went on to say that her general moral character was also good. Upon cross-oxamination the witness said that ho didn't know that Mrs, McFarland was unusuaily talkative. She was a bright and vivacious little creature and a warm friond of thoso whom she liked. “You have a brother in the Philadelphia artmont, have you nov!” “You don’t know what he might have said about Mrs. McKarland *No, but 1 should make considerable al- Sswance for anything he might have said.” “Do you know Mr, Pierson?” ekt #Very reputablo gentleman, is he not1" “Yes,” #Do you know what he might have sald about Mrs. McFariand #Do 'you know Mr. Early? “Yes, ! “iteputable gentlouan, isu't het" P4 fou don’t know what he might have about Mrs. McFarland!” o, “Do you know what Mrs. McFarland conduct was in the city of Omaha last June?” “No, sir.” #5he might have been guilty of the gross- est misconduct for all you know, sir" “She might, yes." *You don’t kno in the city 1" *No, sir,” A member of the court arose to ask the object of the inquiry into Mrs. McFarland’s conduct and moral character, The counsel for the defense said that the ‘witness in his direct testimony had volun- teered information upon this point, and had thereby opened the way for these in- quiries, The court, however, ruled that the exam- fnation must be confined to her reputation for truth and veracit; ‘he counsel said he had no further questions. Re-direct—""In regard to these allusions made by the counsel for the accused, if there had beon any misconduct on the partof Mrs. MoFarland, you would have kuown it, ‘wouldu’t you " The accused objected to the question and the objection was sustained. ‘You may state what occurred at the in- terview between you and Mrs, McMullen.” Counsel for defense again interposed an objection, which was overruled. 'he witness proceeded to answer the ques- tion. Mullen said that the colonel was better pleased with Mrs, McFarlsnd her last visit than ever before, and that the only dificulty they had was a little quarrel on the last morning of her visit." The next wituess called was Horace F. Weeks, a Philadelphia lawyer. He testified that he had known Mrs. McFarland for years, and that he moved in the samo wcln{ 10 the city that she did, Her reputa- tion for truth and veracity, he said, was #90d and hie uever heard it questioned, Upon cross-examination the witness sald he had never discussed the watter of the lady's ebaracter. ““Then the exteut of your knowledge of what places she visited “Did you ever represent the McFarland family us an attorney (" “1 have been uestioned by them on points of law, but never received any fees from them.” The witness acknowledeed that he had once visited Omaha to consult Mrs. McFar- land regarding the sale of somo real cstat but at that time Le represented the purchas- ors and nov Mrs. Mckarland. Howard Kountze, of Philadelphia, was next called. He bad known Mrs. McFar- land for eight years, and knew many people in tho city whom she kuew. He testified that her reputation for truth and veracity was very good. % Upon cross-examination the witness said he didn’t know what others might have said, but her reputauion in this regard had never been discussed in his presence. Mrs, Hess, of Philadelphia, was very em- phatic in_her answers and declared with much vehemence that Mrs. Mcl"arland’s reputation for truth and veracity was very good. She had never heard it questioned. After luncheon Captain Dempsey was re- called, and his attention was directod to the morning of the 19th and the conversation relative to the dogeart “At that time,” said the witness, “I was sitting upon Colonel Flo ratep g I distinctly beard him say, and thief, you have been taking things out of the house that don’t belong to you,' and I have every reason to belicve that the was addressing his remarks to Fletehe Upon his cross-examination the witness said that 1t was only his opinion that these remarks were addressed to Mrs, Lletcher; he did not know of his own knowledge that they were. When he went into the house Colonel Flotcher said he addressed the re- Murs, marks to Mrs. McFarland, Lieutenant Wright was recalled and asked if Lieutenant Tousley had mnot made con- trary statements regarding bis understand- 1ng of Colonol Flotoher's words at the meet.- ing of oflicers, to what he had made on the This was objected to, and the objec- tion was sustained, “When you called upon Colonel Fletcher with Dr. Henderson, did you hear the latter gay, Time is_ too short, sign the paper or e the consequences.’ “No, sir, 1 aid not."

The witness said that he asked the man if he had overtaken Colonel Fletcher on his way to town, and the coachmun had answered yes. ‘The court then adjourned until this morn- ing.

The Douglas County Teachers' institute opened yesterday at~ the high school. au attendance of seventy, which County Superintendent Bruner says is the largest he hus ever known on the first day of an - stitute. ‘I'ne nstructors, Mrs, Keysor, Dr. Strong and Professor Bruner, were present and looked over an array of fair faces which nearly filled the room. The masculine ped- agogue is but slenderly represented and the inference is that the great majority of Doug- las county schools areé gorgeous with picture cards and fancy work and during the sum- mer season redolent of the fragrance of pra- rie flowers, I hese young ladies are from almost every state in the union and, if the comparison bs not invidious, in point of beauty and intelli- gence rauk far above any similar collection heretofore nssembled in this city. There are stately Bernhardts oluminous Gainsboros and Spanish mantillas, and Dolly Vardens in white pink sashes, They are black-haired, brown- golden-haired aud fla red are vivacious ones and languishi 5, snappy, mild, round-eyed, long-ey and spectacled. There are Kates and Janes, Gretchens, Marguerites, Liliies, Roses, Floras and Mary Anns, In fact, they re- present every conceivable type of feminine statoliness, piumpness,hugableness and lovh- ness, and he would be fastidious indeed who could not find an ideal as the long line files ouvt of the aoor at recess. All are settled down to a couple of weeks' good hard work with doubtless a sprinkling of enjoyment. The vavious instructors have had a great deal of experience in institute work, and are endeavoring to make the present scssion one of the most profitable and successful ever held in the county. Mrs. Jennie E. Keysor, who has charge of the literary = branches, is an enthusiastic student of the literature of the language and a very smooth and engaging speaker. Miss Strong is a practicing physician, an experienced teacher and will do justice to her departments. The daily programme will be as follows: 5:45 a. m.—Opening exercises; 8 history, Mrs. Keysor; 9:15t0 10 ogy (vwo clusses), Dr. Strong; 10:50 to 11 :20, history of education, Mrs, Keysor; 11:20 to 11:55, methods of teaching, Dr. Strong; 30 p. m, English lijerature, Mrs, flowing plump little muslin__and ) the afternoon the sessions will be occu- pied by the Omaha Commercial college pco- ple in instruction in_bookkeepiug, civil gov- ernment and penmanship.

PARKER THE PENMAN, He Is Arraigned n Judge Herka's Conrt and Tells His Story. Charles Parker, a sixteen-year-old boy, was arrested Saturday pight for forgery and arralgned before Judge Herkas yesterday afternoon. A continuance was granted un. tl Wednesday at 2 p. . The Loy says be I checks, passed them on the various_parties, and gave the man Walter one-half thé profits. The boy went to Austin’s shoe store on Thirteenth and Howard strects and Dbought a pair of shoes, tendering a check for $12 and receiving $10.25 change. The same game was played on W. R. Bennett & Co. and the shoe store in Boyd's opera hous building. The checks were signed “C. S. Potter” and “E. F. McCartney.” They were on the Omaha, Commercial anl Ne- braska National banks. The boy did not seom to realizo the gravity of his position. He asked the reporter if he could give bonds and get a chance to work and rapay the monoy he had obtained. He stated that the roport that he had been forced to got money dishonestiy because his father whipped him for not bringing home more monoy, was not true. His eyes filled with tears as he said he had the very best of fathers, who allowed him to do as he pleased. Parker also stated that ho had never hung uround banks in his life, and had no idea how checks were drawn up until shown by the man Walter. Charles Parker, sr., the boy's father, is a hackman living at 1600 Cass street. Ho says the boy has been employed at the new nata- torium on Howard streat, and has been re- coiving 8 por woel, MF. Parker states that hetold the boy that as ho was now old enough to earn money he ought to contribute something towsrd the family purse. Since that hus s0n has been givinz him $1 per week regularly. He was not aware that tho boy was 10 the hubit of frequenting saloons or pool rooms until the developments of the past few days, as he was compelled to be away from home most of tho time.

NorroLk, Neb., August 9.—To the Lditor of Tur Bee: Last Saturday the people of this city were horrified by one of the most brutal and disgraceful scenes ever wit- ness in this partof the country. The foilow- ing are tne particulars by an eye-witness: Mr. James Gray, of Norfolk Junction, came upn his buegy, hitching his horse in front of A. Poswatk’s blacksmith shop. He went about his business, returning at the end of an hour or soto find his horse and buggy gone. After looking about considerable he met Marshal O'Banion driviog the rig down the street at a lively gait. Mr, Gray at once took possession of his horse and naturally expressed his sentiments at the unwarranted liberty of O'Banion 1 appro priating the property without his permis- sion, yet indulging 1n no_ abusive language beyond demanding pay for theuse of h rig. Then O'Banion pounced upon his vic- tim like a bulldog, striking Mr, Gray with his fist (in the back of his neck), and as the unfortunate man turned, seemingly to learn the cause of the attack, the brute seized him by the throat, and drawing his billy started with his prisoner for the office of the police judge, several blocks away, shametully beat ing 'and choking the poor man ail while. Al this was without slightest causs or provocation, us Mr. Gray did not once offer to resist or remon strate. One thing was noti bl; O'Banion was heard to say blows and jerks, ‘“Imke that, have had it in for you for two 'y cap the climax his honor, the police judge, fined the prisoner $3.70, Mr, Gray demurre and the smount was quickly cut $4.75.

An o0dd case was tried in a justice court this city last week, tho details of which are yet unpublished and are ludicrous in the ex- treme. A young German who owns a small farm in McArdle precinct wanted & wife, and informed an Omaha constablo that if he would get him one he would give him $50. ‘The server of writs, etc., at once began looking around for a partner for his friend’s joys and sorrows, aud found her in the per- 800 of & young healthy girl whose reputation for chastity was not by any means as pure as the driven snow on the hillside. He cos trived to have the pair meet and the young German was delighted. An arrrange- ment was made by the mutual friend, because the German spoke but little English, while the woman's knowledge of German was confined to the one word *'ge- sundheit,” and the twain were made one.

Mr. Eccles paid Lim a dollar to hold the bargain, aud promised to pay the balance some other time, He hasn’t done it yet, and gives as a reason that he bought another - terest—that of Mr. Ramsey—for o great deal loss money, and consoquently didu's wan Mr. Hall's quarter. Mr. Hall swallowed his disgust, and has coutinued to swallow 1t st rogular intervais for tho last turee years, But yesterday was his day at bat and he im- proved the opportunity.
