B, Wynn and A. K. Smith, the Dakota gentlemen, delegated by their respective towns, Yanktonand Mitchell, to visit Omata on railroad business, hive arrived and are quartered at the Paxton, In & briof interview with them they s Ythero b an ocenns of talk and oratory from committees sent here before, but we mean business, and if the people of Omaha are with us, we propose to do something that will either result in compelling the northwestorn company to extend its Hart- ingron iine, or will get another corpany in- terested.” 1 win strongly of the opiuion Mr, Wynn, “that the Missouri like to negotiate with us.' *No doubt Mr. Gould has long had the ad- V'mL:lL'x--A of aroad into that country iu his [§ " continued acitic would " replicd Mr, Smith, “and now is the time to build, becausd our people are anxious to assist with subsidies and free right of way.” “It is reported that the Northwestern would rather give Omaha $100,000 than build that sixteen-mile connection from Hartington to Yankton.” “In that 8 ¥ asked Mr, Wynn, “Well it would chanve the current of traftic to Omanan and cut off the benefits of a long haul to Chicago”" T expect that is a fact, but Omaha 18 our natural market and here'is where we want especially with our stock.

For a long timo it has been understood that the Chi- cago, Rock Island & Pacific road provosed sooner or later to connect its mumn line with the Chicago, Kunsas & Nebraska system, by the construction of an extension from Counecil Bluffs to Beatrice. It appears now that instead of placing itself under ob- ligation to the Union Pacific for track and bridge privileges, this corporation iutends to have an indepenaent crossing, hence the ob- ject of Senator Manderson's bill. Particulars are not obtainablo further than that the company’s sucveyors haye vecently been taking bearings and making soundings at a point about four miles down the river opposite Albright, and have extended them t0 Omaba from the south. So far as can be learned, no subsidies will e asked further probabiy than & right of way., If the bill passes, work will be commenced early next spring and the enterprise will be pushed to completion within twelve months, wonth." The demand fora local tramn seryice be- tween Omaha and Falls City ou the Missouri Pacific road is still being agitated. The real estate exchange has taken it up, and pro- poses to keep hammering at General Mana- ger Clark until he takes some oction.

The great cry now is for cars to move the freight in Nebraska and Kansas. An official of the Milwaukee road said that the four lines between this city and Chicago are hav- ing more business than they can handie. It seews that the farmers have determined to sell their grain at once, and the crops this year were so large that it is impossible to handlo the buik ready for shipment east. The Union Pacific folks say that while they are supplymg all demands made upon them for cars.

Miller for the possession of the child, Eve yn Miller, in the United States court, Mr. John Schamp yester- day replied to Lombertson’s argu- ments for a' new trial. He said that the opposing counsel's first reason ' ns- signed for the subport of the motion, namely, that the petition does not set forth that parties are citizens of different statos was surprising after the understanding bo. tween counsel in the early proceeding of the case, when the direct allegation of eiti- zenship was discovered, and a stipulation was drawn up and signed in which it was agrend that the matter, bo heard and doter- mined before Judge Dundy, There was evough allegod, anyway, to make t izens indoed. Pending the taking of the ov- idence, it was mentioned and agreed upon that these parties, Miller and Burrus, wero citizons of Ohio and Nebraska respectively As was said by or on behalf of respond- ents, *“They were in the court, they wanted to and would abide by Judge Dundy's de- cision.

In thatcase an amend- ment was allowed after it had been taken to the supreme court, and the court there also holds the question of ‘amendment was aques- tion of discretion in the court, A similar ruling was quoted in Sheplierd vs Nelson, 6 Howard 260, in which the court holds that whero the court permitted an amondment two yoars after trial and after the cause had been taken to the su- mo court, Judge Girier, the court, held ‘that the objection that the court below could not make this amenduiont for want of con- tinuance is hardly worthy of notice. Such technical objections h:n’u long ceased to be any avail in auy court.’ “The second objection,” continued the at- torney, “is that tius is not a controversy be- tween the petitioner and respondents, but between the child and whom? The counsel does not stute, but as he says they are partios of the same state,’ ho must mean between the child and tho grandparents, Burrus, Butif it was the fact, the case 18 not changed.

These are the fellows that we are after and waut them to pay a license as a sort of a guarantee that they aro sincere and honest in their trade. “I have no idea how many small butchers will have to quit business if the ordinance is passed, but there will be several.” Mr. Snyder's Views. Councilman Snyder, who introduced the ordinance In the couucil, said that he had not read the document, It had been given him by Mr. Besen. He had handed 1t to Mr. Burnham, but did not know what that gentleman’'s committee would do with it. In fact, he aido't care what became of the ordinance He was not in favor of it and had not taken any interest in the decision when the Butchers’ union bad it under consiaeration? The principal reason advanced, sv far as he knew in support of the license was that it would shut out a number of butchers who do business only , during the cold months when it may be carried on with less expense than during the warm season. “My ice cost me, last year,"” continued Mr. Snyder, “§500, while now I can get along almost entirely without ice.

Some of the barbers of this city are on the war-path, razor in hand and scissors in sight. It seoms that certain of the smaller shops on the side and suburban streets propose to enforce the Sunday barber law. The down- town tonsorial knights propose to fight the project. “It's only the ten-cent shops that's making all this roar,” said a corpulent hair artst on North Sixteenth street to a roporter. Their ehops are located on streets where there is little or no Sunday trade, and they are jealous because the largershops that are more centrally lo- cated are doing the Sunday work. Yes, thoy have threatened to prosecute us if we open Sunday. All I've got to say 18 that if they close our shops on Sunday they will have to close everything else. Its a state law, all right, but there are a great many more laws of & more serious nature than shaving that are never enforced, We will fight the prop- osition.” An artist of lather and brush who con- ducts a l0-cent shop was alsoseen. Ho differed from the 15-cont shaver. **We pro- pose, this time,” said the gentleman *to sce that all barber’ shops are closed on Sunday.

They all helped to a mutual understunding and appreciation. Each counts the other a_friend to the fullest sense of the torm. Wanamaker is at the white house three or four times a week or oftener, and for an afternoon or an evening at a time. He lunches or dines with the president—walks or drives with him. He need not-tall offices to'the president, They have com- mon aims in politics apart from oflices. He need not talk politics. Both are elders in the Presbyterian church and are interested in all its in- terests, Both, too, are fond of nature, of books and pictures and bric-a-brac, You know how agtéeable Wanamaker can be to his lnm\ds. 80 you can im- agine how agreeable he is to Harrison, The president 1.8 man always, and 50 has a good deal of human nature and likes and dislikes ‘in particular.

Among tho o cumstances attonding hor illness, was an unique_illustration of the usos to which modern scientific invention may be ‘vul in alleviating human sufferin A Read was passionately fond of music, and after the doctors had pro- nounced hor malady incurable, her son, Willinm D. Rean, concerved the idea of bringing to her bedside the harmonies in which o delighted. To this end he secured a phonograpn with many wax eylinders, prepared at Edison’s lab- ovatory, at Llewellyn Park, New York, whereon people world-renowned for their musical attainments had left the impr of their voices or the tones of their iustruments, The phonograph vas sot up on nstand at Mrs, Head's ide, and the hotlow glass bulbs at nd of the connecting tube were placed at the dying woman's ears. At once she forgot her pain in listeniug to the music of the masters. The phonograph exuctly produced cornet solos, duets for flute and piano and piano and clarionet, with some fine bursts from the most famous recd orchestras. Then Mrs. Rend was uble to heur the solos of the greatest singors, clear, distinet and beautifully modu- lated, and her eyes filled with tears as agrand voice softly sang to her l]lc folk-lore songs of her childhood’s When the music began to loso soothing by reason of repetition Read induced the membe: regiment band, of the Arion b tette and of Blum’s band in this city to play into the instrument, so that their best harmonies might pe heard by the motheron her bed of pain.

The wax eylinders recorded not only every word, but every tone and modulation of her voice. The fow words she spoke while impressed with the fact that death was close at hand will be treasured in her family as if they were vhe mother’s last message to those left behind. Whenever the occasion fits the members of the household will gather about the phonograph and hear Ml . Rond’s voice, ns if she herself had coma out of the past and back from the grave. In an interview yesterda, liam D. Read, the dezd wom said that the thought that he could hear his mother’s voice whenever he desired in large measure assuaged the grief he felt at her death.

There is upon the Yakema (Wash.) veservation a family of half breeds known as the Olneys,writes a Portiand, Oregon, correspondent. A romance is associated with the name. The white father of the Olneys died recently, but to the last shunned his own race. He was of a highly vespectable Rhode Island family and o graduate of Yale college. About the time he completed his studies the discovery of gold in Cal- ifornia. oceurred. Olney joined the Argonauts of 49 and came west to seek his fortune. He left behind him his sweetheart, to whom he was to be mar- ried as soon as he found the fortune and returned. The girl grew weary of waiting, as many others of her sex have done, About a year after he reached the coast, Oluey received a letter an- nouncing the marriage of his betrothed. He nover got over the blow. ~ Drifting about he located in Oregon, and was made sheriff of Waso county. In those days there was usually excitement enough in the duties of sherifl to banish the memories of the past. During his reign Olney made many warm personal friends, but after awhild he got tired of hunting down criminals. He gave up his office, crossed the Columbia river, and became a member of the Yakema tribe. His adoption was in good faith on his part, for he took an Indian wife and raised a family. As his children grew up he educated them with care, and when he died he left them well pro- vided for. The Olneys are influential in the tribe, and they exercise that in- fluence for good.
