IS SLOMINSKL A BIGAMIST ? Some Ugly Storfea From Duluth About the Omaha Pole Vender. DESERTED WIFE AND CHILDREN. His Unique Family Ties—His Glope- ment—Where is the Winona Girl? ~His Unclean Lectures—What the “Doctor' Says, ominski in Duluth DurotH, Minn,, Nov. 0.—[Special to Tir Bee.]--Dr. Slominski who 18 now infesting Omaha, is extensively known in Duluth. He came here from Winona, about eighteen months ago and being of pleasing address 800N secured a prominence among the Polish residonts which oventually led to his appomt- ment as teacher in an outdying school at Rice Lake. For a shorttime everything went well and his school was one of the best small ones, outside of Duluth, in St Lows county. Then some ugly stories about Slominski's morals began to be circulated, involving the motber of one of his girl pupils, if not the girl herself, The man left his school and came into the city where ho blossomed out into a doctor of medicine, though where ho graauated remains a mystery to this day in Duluth, Ho worked up » practico among the igno raut classes of Polish residents, and for a time used nothing but sugar, water ana red epper in his practice. He finally grew older and added largely to his médicines, and then began a series of lectures some of them “for men only,” but the majority were for women only." The reporter visited the rectory of the Polish Catholic church this morsing at about lock and was cordiully received by the in_charge—Rev. Father Woc whon the following conversation ensued: father, do you know a Dr. Slominskit" 'No, 1do not—Ob, yes I doj he is not here now—he 1s in jeil out west; he is a bad man.” “Why do you cull him a bad man? What has he dono to you." “He has not done much to me individ- ually, but to my people |parishioners| he has behaved shamefully.” “In what way!” “He gave talks [lectures] to the women and girls, and he talked bad talk to them." “Have you heard this from the women themselves or from their husbands or fathers?” *From both.” AL did he hve?” “Over there on Fourth stroet east. That's where he left his wife and two children to starve.” “Left his wife! Did he desert herl” “Yes, sir; ho did.” ything more about him? “Not much; except thathe came here from Winona, ovt of which city ho was expelied.” (This is veritied by Winona ofticials and Catholic priests here.) “I'hw reporter then drove over to John Hop- pa’s saloon, on_Fourth street, two blocks from the church. The proprietor, who knows Slominski well, was sick in bed, but his bar- ender, in response to the inqu “Do you remember Dr. Slominskil” said, *You're d—n right I do; he's a dirty pup. He left his wife here and two children, and ran away. with a girl from Winona w followed him up here."” Sergean’ Horgan, of the polico force, was scen and remembercd the scamp and was the party who learned the story of his elopement from his (Slominski’s) wife, and who interested the church people in her case, Through his kindiy efforts the littie children were taken care of by a benevolent nstitu- tion. A tour of the drug stores, grocery stores, butcher shops, soveral saloons and other 1 places -of trade revealed the fact that Slo- mioski was a dead beat in addition to his other undesirable characteristics, The ‘“‘doctor” went from here wostward and is supposed to have gone to Coiorado, as +letters from difforent point8 have boen re- ;fllved here containing inquiries regarding m. The whereabouts of his wife are not known, and if he has murried an Omaha woman he is & bigamist as well as an adulterer, Ho was legally married to the woman he deserted here, ana I can find norecord of. his divorce in St. Louis, Lake, Curlton, Codk, Itasca or Crow Wing counties. He lert Duluth because the church author- ities had made war azainst him, and because he was being brought too prominently be- fore the wunicipal and county police author .ities by reason of the rumors uforemen- “tioned.

A reporter called on Slominski at his home on South Thirteenth street, Monday night, for the purpose of asking him regarding tho matters set forth above, ana a few facts on the side. The ‘‘doctor” was in, and when the newsgatherer entered remarked, “Well, you have got an unhimited amount of gall, haven't you; what do you want now?" _* “Merely want to askyou a few questions,” ‘wal the response, “Well, fire away then; ask me anything you like.

Five Terriblo Knock Down Blows Within Two Minutes—An Ensy Victory for the Local Ohampion. The Apostle’s Poor Showing. The Gate City Athletic club rgom was the scene of n pugilistio contest last night that was good for strabismus, and the croakers who ha 0 vigorously assertod that Jimmy Liundsay, the local champion, 'is'no fighter must now flock w his standard, for he knocked out Jimmy , Grifia, the St Paul fistic wonder, in two minutes and seventeen seconds. The club room doors were closed promptly at9 o'clock, by which time, howéver, a crowd composed of club members, doctors, lawyers, clerks, busipess men, policewmen, politicians and sports, to the num- ber of two hundred ahd fifty, had as. sembled within the ball, and ranging them- selves In chairs about tho twenty-four foot ring, anxiously awaited the event of the evening. Just one week ago the two men met at the samo place and mado an effort to determine who was the best mav, This result, how- ever, was prevented by the interference of some of the Apostle's over-zealous friends, and the refere was induced to declure the fight off, Naturally enough, this created in- tense aissati ion among the spectators, and the club, prone to do the right thing by its vatrons, has worked sedvlousiy ever since to get the men tovether again. 1 his they finally succes in doing last night, and as tho writer has previously claimed, Lindsay demonstrated conclusive that Griftin has 1o business in the same ring with him. He put his man to sleep with al- most ludierous ease, Grifin came hero heralded as a phenome- nal fightor—a mun who gave Danny Need- ham the hardest fight of his life, and who had come out first best in a score of uotable battles. He was the favorite of a prejudiced few who know of his strategic tactics and gameness, but to those who have been fair enough to acknowledge Lindsay’s ex- traordinary prowess, and willing to give the boy credit for his science and strength, he wasn't to be men- tioned in the same breath. It is but fair, however, to give the St. Paul vouth eredi for his gameness, for he is all that without a quibble or a doubt, but only -n mediocre fighter when pitted against a man of the cal- ibre of his last evening's udversary. Lindsay had made # name for himself, as unenviable as it may be, that will be heard in pueilistic circles throughout tne country, and it is safe tosay that heis the equal of any man in his class that can be produced to-day. Manager Kilkenny announced just after the men entered the ring that the contest was to be one for a purse of $30), the winuer to getall, fifteen rounds, regulation gioves, revised Queensberry rules to govern, for scientific points, Lindsay last night looked the model athlete that he is, and he entered the ring at 138 pounds. He ‘wore flesin colored tights, with black breechelot, und fighting shoes, and sat _in his corner with the nonchalance and confidence of asure winuer. He was secondea by Jack Davis, while Bill McCune acted as bottle holder. Griflin, too, wore a cool and defiant look, and from tha resolute asvect of -his connten- ance it was palpable .that he had wuade up his mnd to lower the local’s colors. He wore black tights and gaiters, and tipped: the - beam at 139 pounds. Billy Hawkins wafted the towel for him and Arthur Rothery held the bottle, “The question of ‘selecting. a referee. con- sumed an hour's time, and fully a, score of, names were mentioned jyithout arriying at'a choice, In order that the waic might not end«in another flasco, Manager Kilkenoy finally announced. that the two principals ahould name a man and then toss for choice, Griftin decided upon Patsey Fallon, ana to avoid any further d Lindsay said ho would accept him without tossing, if Fallon would say that he had no financial terest in the fight, Fallon promptly proclaimed his disinterested position, and was culled into the ring. Dofling his coat and rolling up his sleeves, he read the rules suppblementiog this with a brief cautionary address to both the pugs and the audience. He then produced the gloves and ordered the men to get ready. Ten minutes later they were told to shake hands and a moment later time was cailed, The two men advanced and putup their hands, making a picture fit for the artist's brush. Deep chested, muscular, strong armed and weat limbed, a couple of typical young gladiators, one the prototype of the ower, Breathless silence reigned for a quarter of a minute, which was occupied by the two men 10 as pretty an exhibition of sparring as was ever witnessed. Grifin was in a meas- ure the aggressor, and he bandled himself in @ way thut gave rise to doubts in the minds of Lindsay's friends of their favorite's ability to extricate himself from what began to look like an ugly dilemma. Step by step the St. Paul man forced the Nebraskan back toward the ropes, holding his guard well up, and making numeérous threatening feints with his rlgEL At last he imagived he suw an opening, but he was never more badly mistaken in the whole course of his life. First thero wis an ommous feint with the teft, then he swung with his right, grazing Lindsay’s cheek, but receiving a lLightning counter from Jimmy’s left that dazed him., It was a repetition of Landsay’s initial blow 1o the first fight, only this time be quickly followed up his vantage; and it was smash with the right and biff wich the left, until Grifiin went down. He gamely re- gained his feet, however, and dashed furi- ously at Lindsay,but his blows were wild and unavailing. and a second or two later a pile- driver in the neck from Lindsay's wicked lert sent him sprawling a second time. He arose, but @& trifle slower, yet mone the less willing, and with a hero- ism worthy of & better cause, went after Jimmy again, and a third time was he kuocked down by that catapultian left. It was patent to all, long ere this, that Grifin wasn’t in 1t and never had been, Yet again did he risu to his feet, but this time so grogzy that he almost fell down from the sheer force of his own hopeless blows. He was weak and dizzy, and Lindsay quickly sent him down the fourth time, and it looked as if it were a physical impossibility for nm to recover again. However, beforé the pre- scribed ten seconds were up he managed to get to his feet. aguin, but it was a last de- spairing effort, for Lmduug sprang at bim suvagoly and it him right and left, until he whirled on his exhausted limbs, raised bis arms and fell prone upon bis face. ‘Ihe blood gushed from his nostrils, his limbs twitched spasmodically, and then he Jay still, a thor- oughly whipped and knocked-out man.

Buat the Love of Money Downed Him and a Host Friends Now Weep Over His Fall, Took the Money With Him Another pious young man has gone Wrong. His name 1s Miller, aad he s about twent threo years of age, and has ulw consider model young man. 1ut those who put their trust in him have hiod their idol shattered and their purses de- pleted, for the. young man has skipped by the light of the moon, Thore are sovaral people in Omaha who now mourn his loss. Allen T, Rector is one, and his sorrow s expressod about $100 worth, B. A, Parmaleo, formerly of the board of education, is another, he having allow Miller to {ngratiate hitself into his o dence in a sum which foots up something like §250. But the people who are most disgusted are the members of the Irinity M. E. church, at Twenty-first and Binney strcets. It was there that Miller worked the greatest rackot. He attended divino service frequently, and 80 thoroughly did he play his gamo toat the congregation selected him for treasurer, They made a mistake, Miller readily accopted all the funds on- trusted Lo nim, and for a time it is said he lived well and had lots of monvy, But abont a week ago Dame Kumor has it that he go t wind of a little scheme on the vart of some of the members to elect some one else to his office. This, coupled with tho fact that two or three notes were coming due, evidently induced him to leave, which he did witnout giving any orders as to where to sond his mail. His creditors soon discovered the fact, and great was their consternation, especially the church people. The oxact amount of his shortage cannot ns yet be ascertained, but 1t will aggregate nearly $1,000. Mr. Kector is understood to have left yesterday in pursuit of Miller, claiming that no knows where he has gone, ' It is said that lo was scen @ day or two since in Kansas City. where he has friends.

The attendance was not as Jaree as was anticipated. W. B. Musser vresided, and C. Reinhart acted as secretary. J. A, Gile made & few appropriate remarks and was foliowed by Attorney J. P. Breen, who spoke in substance as follows: “I am glad to know that in this growing center of western civilization there is a labor organization, known as Carpenters’ and Joiners’ Union, No. 58, that 8o clearly under- stands the close fellowship between a lawyer and a real true laborer that it invites a law- yer to sit in special conference with it. I have waited anxiously for the time when your labor organization would recognize in ihe average lawyer the only real genuine laborer. and invite him into the fold. It speaks well for this union that it has made this important discovery. But seriously, entlemen, let mo assure” you that the nopu lur belief that a lawyer does not come within the scope and meaning of the term laborer is indeed a delusion, 1 know lawyers who can worthily wear the crown that belongs to nonesy toil. “Iam sure some of your leaders expoct groat hepefits can be rapidly realized from the mere enactment of laws touching labor vroblems. 1t is a pity that great benefils cannot thus be realized. But the history of human progress is a history of evolution rather than revolution. Great class combi- nations vhat promise by the mere machinery of law aund organization to lift graat bodies of men into new and better conditions are very often, if not always, total faiiures. Luw, with'allits divine attributes of ma- Jesty, fairness and equity, cannot alone hift a Whalo class of people at once intoa higher plane, or nto & better condition. 1 would not have you rely too much on the forco of mere organizatlon alone to ad- vance the cause of labor. The purpose of this life seems to be the development of in- dividual character and the working out of men’s own salvation. It is best to remember that God has arranged us all in classes of one, His law scems to be that wo advance upon our own feet, grow individually, carn our own possessions, It seems to be the im- mutable luw of this existence that each one, in o measure at least, must tread the wine: press of 1ife alone. It follows that the ud- vancement which you seek must to some ex- tent be individually won, though it does not follow that there is no such thing as aiding the andividual by organization, And1am glad that I can earnestly say that I believe labor organizalions are and have been of great be to workmen of Auwer- ica; and, Wwhiln 1t may be that all the extra wages you have won by such organization does not off- sev the losses through your strikes, yet men never earnestly struggle to better their con- dition without advancing in some w whether it be in the direct line of th€i efforts or not, ‘I'here never was 80 much ambition, organization and determination among workingmen the world over as there is to-day, and although the agitation 1s full of peril ut well as promise, it i3 the way of progress. No grander victory for the rights of mankind has ever been won than that just gained in_the world's metropolis, on the docks of London, by organized la , and no grander leader of men hasarisen of lute than the cool, calm young laborer who could hold to its steady purpose that t organizution until its victory was won. Lot every mun who loves his race and his country help on 1[:; his way the mighty car of progressive lu- or."
