Dayhoff, tho principal of the schools, one Beck, with his hair parted in the middie, a quartette of young girls, and threo little boys, When the reporter entered the Indiana propagandist was in the midst of a fiery out- burst descriptive of the dimensions and char- acter of Mr, Peter Iler as a first cluss liar and rumboodlist, With the cleverness of a prestidigitateur Mrs. Gougar would fiy from ller to woman's suffrage, from woman's suf- frage to temperance, from temperance to politics, and then back to ller, Iier seemod o be the burden of her discourse for the first half hour after the reporter’s arrival; then she switched and jumped onto Omaliu with both feet, metaphorically speaking, of course. After depicting what a slovenly, vile, rum-besotted, sin-steeped, bankrupt metropolis this city s, she told of the beauties of Iowa under prohibi- tion. How for seven ynars absolute teetotalism had - been enforced there, how the great state had gotten out of debt undor this reign, and how she was out-strip- ping the black blotch Nebrasia made upon the map in prosperity, culture, wealth and general advancement, Growing tired of this, she went back to her pet theme of probibition, drawing some Dante Infermo sketches of the curse of too much *‘lush,” comparing it with the old slave trade in the south. *‘Instead of bid- ding on those poor colored slaves in the ante- beilum days,” she said, “it is these that the rum seller is biddingon! Come here!” she bellowed, turning and beckoniug_with her hand to one of the little fellows sitting upoun the stage behind her. “Lay down on your back on the floor, I want to show these good people the sort of a sidewalk the liquor dealers are building for them.” ‘Then she called the other boys and stretched them out alongside the first, and putting one foot upon the delicate abdomen of the oune nearest her, she cried in Lady Macbethean toues, *Here is what the liquor dealer is bidding for day after day; here is the sidewalk the fiends of Bacchus are building for you fathers and mothers and brothers and” sisters to walk ove: ons of thousands of these little darl- ings arc bid off by these devils every year." I'his, of course, was a very touching and dramatic scene, and when over there wasn't a wet eye in the house, Mrs. Gougar's next point of assault was Mr. Rosewater and Tnr: Bee, and she p eeded to recount the notorious slanders she had retailed at her Limcoln meeting the night before; how Tue Bee had been subsidizea by the liquor dealers’ association, and how Mr. Rosewater had connived with the liquor dealers to defeat the prohibition amendment and how ho had been paid #4,000 for his work, and all of which she said the house journal, with the reports of the legislative vestigating commitiee, would show. Then she specifically charged Mr. Rosewater with having bribed or attempted to bribe'tie leg- islature, repeating time and time her specitic charges of bribery and corruption, and ox- horting the people to rebuke Mr, Rosewator by dropplng his paper, expunging it from their bouseholds and instead subscribe for the New Republic, which is a true prohibi- tion sheet published at Lincolu, and for ich she is doubtless a canvasser. n she got in her work for the period of aquarter of ao hour in a full page *‘ad” for the New Republic, urging everybody to sub- scribe for 1t, that it only cost §1 per annum! Then she artfully touched upon the collec- tion question, talking low and soft and p suasively us the hats were being passed round. When the chapaux were returned their clinking nickels and dimes, Mr. D: unjointed his lengthy form, and reaching down in the capacions depths of one of his cavernous pockets he fished up a big, bright John dollar, and pinching it gingerly botween his index finger and thumb be held it aloft, high avove his head, and turning it from side to side, so_that all the audience couid behold its beautiful shimmer, he halted a moment 1o this attitude, a8 much as to say, “'Look what I am going to do,”’ then ho walked over to the stand and pitched the huge simoleon into one of the hats, returning to his seat like Alexander from his conquest of the world. At this juncture Mr. Rosewater, who had accompanied the reporter to the rink for the purpose of facing Mrs. Gougar in her slan- derous personal charges against him, and demanding @& retraction, or at least tone source of her information, walked guietly down the centre msle, and in a respectful manner asked “if he would be parmitted to ask the lady a question.” Mrs, Gou, was evidently expecting him and had possibly been apprised of his p ence in the hall, for.she sprang eagerly to tho front of the stage aud in a loud, strident voice, cried: “Mr. Rosewater canuot speak in this bouse, Put bim out. T cal on the men of Tekamah to defend - we, Arrest him and ihrow bim in jail. ant tha hall was in arose from of the house ‘Put him out ! Put him out. Arrest him! Throw him in the river!” and a howling mob seemed about to swoop down upon Mr. Rosewate: and rend bim limb from 1imb. All tis savage dem- onstration, however, did not seem to perturb the gentlemnan 1o any meusurable extent, He only folded his hands in front of him, and guzed upon the howling dervishes as if ho was only amused at the circus being enacted about him, Ninety-nine men out of a hun- dred would have fled for their lives, Mr. Rosewater finally retired to the rear of the hall, und the uproar subsided. While it was at its height, however, there were several gentlemen who crowded forward to Mr. Rosewater's aid, notably one farme who exclaiwed to the peopl ing your cause; this is 1o way Lo ac Rosewater should be heard.” After order had been restored Mrs. Par- malee, the president of the W. C. T, U, at the instigation of Mrs, Gougar, aroso and thanked the audience for rebuking Mr. Rosewater, and for not allowing him to speak in theiwr meeting. Then receiviug another prompting from Mra, Gongar, she submitted & motion wusking that Mr. Iosewat be ceusured by the mecting, sod called for a standing vote. All of the men, however, in the houseat the time, were on their feet, and the movion went through with & whoop Mr, Rosewater denounced the stories told by Mrs. Gougar a8 lies, aud stated to the crowd that they should have allowed him an opportanity to have dofended bimself when he was being charged insuch an unwar- ranted mauner with erime, but by this time tuey were pouring out of thie hall, and seeing thero was no chance for any sort of @ hear- ing. he left, and in company with the re porter proceeded to the depot, where an hour after he was placed under arrest. 2 bedlam, all parts Denouriced as an Outrage. Tesaman, Nob.,Oct. 80, —|Special Telegram to Tue Hew | —The trial of Mr, Rosewater on the charge of disturbing a igious meeting,” was called before Couaty Judge H. Wade Gillls, at 9 o'clock this morning. Tuere was quite 8 crowd present in the court room when C. ¥. Dickiusos, aswstant county attorney, read tho charge, as above indicated, Mr. Rosewator denied taat the moeting was a religious one, although held under the auspices of the Woman's Christian Temper- ance union, but a public meeting called for the discussion of one of the political issues of the day; and further, that thoro was nothing that savored of a disturbance of this on his part; that he simply asked permission at the close of the lecture of Mrs. Gougar to call for the source of her information for the criminal slander she had promulgated against him, charging him with aving recorved a$4,000 bribe from the liquor dealors of Omaha, and bribing the Nebraska legisiature himself. Ho further announced his willingness to abide by the decision of the court without the submitting of any estimony,but to this the court demurrod and suggested a jury. Mr. Rosewater stated that sueh a procedure would entail n needless loss of valuable time, and asked the court that in case he could not dispose of the case in‘the manner sug: gosted, to allow him a reasonable postponc- ment. After a brief conference botweon tho judge and the attorney, it was agreed to pastpong the case until Friday, Novomber 8. Mr, Rosewator's own recognizance of #100 was then rencwed and the gentleman released. There is a strone fanatical feeling here, groatly deprecated by numbers of the best citizens, who recognized the high-handed outrage instigated by this brazen quasi- propagandist. i THE UNION DEPOT ORDINANCE.

Her ap- pearance on the stage at Boyd’s opera house last night was the signal for a hearty wel- come by an excellent audience of old friends and admirers. They saw her in an entirely new rolo to them, and in an opera never be- fore produced here, one of Balfe's efforts on. titled the “Rose of Castile.”” Miss Abbott's part, that of Elyira, is distinguished in this respect: While queen she becomes romantic and masquerades as a peasant girl, falls in love with the king of Castile, Manuel, who 18 also disguised and playing mule- teer, subsequently marries him and also'dizcovers the existence of a_couspiracy planned by a cousin, Don Pedro, for her im prisonment 1n a_convent. Both the story and music of this opera are very pretiy, clean-cut ad meritorious from the artistic standpoint, but it Jacks in the elements of spirit and action necessary to arouse much enthusiasin on the part of an uudience. How- it was well - received last night, and several of the numbers were liberaliy ap- planded. Its weak point is 1 concerted music. Miss Abbott sustained the double impers ra in the most pleasing munne: from queen to peas showing artistic versatility and powers of comprehension. One of the most remarkable characteristics of Emma Ab- bott @s an_operatic star 1s noted in the commendable facy that after ten years of constant work her voice is just as pure, clear, sweet and musical as it was when sno com- menced her career. There are very iew great singers of whom as much can be said, They generally flash brilliantly through threo or four seasons and then drop out of sight. Not so with her. In this opera Miss Abbott had no opportunity to display her- solf, exther in vocalism or acting, though she sang the part weil and was s charming as ever, Her costumes, 100, were up to the Abbott standard, av least tivo of tha court dresses worn being perfect gems of beauty and style. rthermore, she has kept h company intuct so long that it i8 like a big family, und works in such complete har- wony that any other than a smooth perfo; auce would denote almost_criminal indiffer- William Pruett assumed last night the ctor of Don Pedro, and when the fact is talcen into consideration that he only had twelve hours in w 1o study tho part he gavo a splendid performance.
