l" THE OMAHA DAILY BEE NUARY 4. HE DIED IN HIS TRACKS Edward J. Tillotson, Bright But Erratic, Drops Dead in a Saloon. HILLSIDE CHURCH WAR ENDED, Birs. Chaney Comes Ouat Victorous and Gets Her Letter of With- drawal—An Omaha Drum- mer in Troubite, The Last Glass. | J. Tillotson, a well known character about town, died suddenly at 1:30 yosterday afternoon in Owen MeCaffrey's suloon at 111 South Sixteenth strect He walked into the saloon ana sat down on box near the door. He was apparontly ina stuper of some kind and tho barkeeper, who was watching him, ®aw him reel and fall from thebox. The former ran and attempted to pick him up, but found him dying. A phy comptly summoned, but Tillotson was doad efore his arrival, Coroner Drexel was ealled and removed tho rematns to the morgue, where an inquest was held, Tillotson’s sndden death was the termina- tion to be expected of the life ho has lead in Omaha for the past hye years. He was nat- urally a bright man, weil-educated. and pos- acssed of the abilities and accomplishments that would have made him successful in al- most any vocation n lifo. A fow years uzo he was temporarily conuected ~ with the Herald and did some very creditable reportorial work, mainly in South Omaha, But his intemperate habits rendered him entirely unreliable and robbed him of his occupation, He was almost constautly under tne influ- enco of liguor and was unfit for work in any of the lines in which he might have made marked success, Ho was peculiar in his drinking babits, He drank apparcntly as much because of love of Liquor as the desire for convivial assoviates. Ho frequently went on a protractea spree, which lasted sev- eral weoks, during which time he ro sorted t all kinds of schemes to secure funds to keep up his exhilaration until his outraged system re- volted und compelled him to seck rest in a hospital or at the homo of friends, During these periods he haunted the news- paper oftices, slept in_the pross-rooms, bor- rowed papers from the business oftices and tho price of a drink or a weal from any of 1iis old friends who had cowpassion for . In his wildest sprees and in his bardest times he always had the instinets of the ge tleman. He was always polite, and s “with your permission, please,” was always an equivalent for the favors to which ho Telped himself in all of the newspaper ofiices ofthe city. He wasalways good natured and never hud an encmy but himself. The deceased was forty-one years of age, and was_the son of Mr.and Mrs, H. A, Til- Iotson of Murshal, Mich. He came to this city about six years ago, alternating between the two Omahas. For the last few years the greater part of his time hus been spent in the Magic City, the attactment being occasioned by the fact that his sister has for some time resided there, She is the wife of a prominent citizen, and her brother’s failng has long been a source of regret _to her, as it has also been to u number of her frieuds, ‘The coroner’s jury met at 8 o'clock and heard the evidence of the witnesses of J'il- lotson’s sudden death. The jury returned a wverdict of death from causes to the jury un- known. Tillotson’s remams will be sent to his bome at Marshall, Mich., for burial, MKS, CHANEY'S CARD. Bheis Granted One by the Congrega- tional Counctl Tho war 10 the Hillside Congregational church hos ended. Mrs. Chaney hus como out victorious. The eouncil of ministers be- fore whom bLer case was tried decided that she was entitled to her letter from tho church under certain conditions with which she exvressed o willingness to comply. ‘This is considered o hard blow at Pastor Crane, who did a good desl of talicing during the trial, to the effect that his course would undoubtedly be sustained by the council and_that Mrs. Chavey would' be summarily dismissed from the church. This brings to a close 0n6 of the most an- noying church troubles whict has ever beon occasioned in vhis city. It had been brow- fug for many months before it was finally !given the publicity of print. Duriog this I time some of the papers of the city were cognizant of every move made by the partics to the difficulty. They refrained, however, from publishing anything concerning the subject, with the hove that the difficulty ‘would be settled to tho satlsfaction of all partios interested. Nearly all the Congregational clergymen took t 10 the hearing of the case, and on one o on their deliberations lasted a whole night, The next, the session lasted until an early hour in the morning, and then some of the council became tired. *The clergvmen could not rightly deny the right of Mrs. Chaney to withdraw from the church,” said & member. “In fact, she had alreauy withdrawn. If she had been denied admission W auy other church, because she did not have a dismissory card, sho wo have douotless contented hersclf with joining the church of another denomination, or keeping away from such un {ustitution entirely. “Ihe question of a moral wrong or even of the violation of the rule of a church, I would not leave, 88 @ generul thing, in the hands of the average minister. I have known of cuses where irroparable ipjury hus been done in such cases, not only to churches but individual: d it is not difficult to de- tflrml!m who nas suffered the more in this case." “1f the ministers had refused Mrs. Chaney her card, 1 bave no doubt thatshe would have been able to have secured damages at their hand: A DHUMMER'S DOWNFALL. Mo Appropriates $150 of His Firm's Money to His Own Use. C, H. Brown, traveling salesman and col- foctor for Dean, Armstrong & ‘Co. of this city, went to the police station at 3 c'clock this afterncon and gave himself up, saying tist he had misappropriated $150of the firm'’s money. He also sald that gambling, wine mnd women were at the bottom of his crime, Mr. Black of the firm of Dean, Armstrong & Co. was seen and said that Brown had ‘been in their employ ubout six weeks and has just returned from his first trip as their western salesman. Brown came to the firm ‘with very strong letters from a well known statiovor named Lamb of Council Bluffs, Before Brown returned from lus trip Mr. Black says he heard that he had been ou a three weeks’' spree in Colorado, and bad gone from there to several Ne- brasks points with women of ill-repute. Upon learning this Mr. Black telegraphed the young man Lo report at the home ollice of the firm ymmediately. When he returned he was usked to make a report. He did so wad turned over some §5. Mr, Black in- formea him that $150 more was necded to square his account of collections which the firm had positive proof of his baving made.

Mr. Black said he would give him until b o'clock %o make up the balance, At 8 o'clock Hrown went to the police station, told his story, and iusisted on being Jocked up.

Besides the enterprises named, there are wood grounds on which to base assertions that the Sioux City and_Pacific corporation meaus business and intends to have its line constructed across the state before next Thankseiving day. Reports have been cirulated to the effect that this im- provement has the Central or Southern Pacific back of it, though a well-posted gen- tleman said, yesterday, he possessed reliable information to the contrary. “Iam very cer- tuin,” he continued, “that u syndicate of Mil- waukee and Pennsylvania Central stock. nolders arc furnishing the money."

Their friends were there in force aud when Referes Rockwell an- nounced the result they madn the big build- ing resound with fish-horns and whistlos The positions of the two teams were as follows: Wheelman, Rhodes first rush, Roberts second, Morris center, Bacon half Lack and Epenter goal tend.

The whistle sounded for the firet onslaught at §:20 prompt and after a vigorous battie of nine minutes Roberts, by a piece of admir- able nursing, ran the ball well up m front of the Millard’s coop and then deftly tossing it to Morris, that young gentleman drove it home. The second goal, which was also run by the bykers, was made in precisely the same way in just six minutes, The balauce of the nning ‘was profitless to both sides, The Millards played well and struggled hard, but all to no uvail, the agile cyclers being too many for them. Tlhere was but one goal made in the second inning, whicn likewise feil to the lot of the wheel 'boys, who put up a game that sur- passed anything yet scen within the walls of the rink, At the expiration of the first nine minutes Roberts succeeded in driving the sphere into the opposition’s cage ana the friends of the wheelman made things howl.

M. Stone called the attention of the guests and stated that he had been deputed to act as toastmaster in the absenco of Dr, L. A. Merriam, wno was to have ofticiated in that capacity. ‘The first toast proposed was “Recent Science and the Practice of Medicine,” and Dr. A. F. Jones was called on to respond. Dr. Jones expressed regret at the absence of Dr. Merriam, Who was to have favored them with an address showing the progress of the club, ete. On the subject of his toast the dactor said the most remarkable advance had been made in the science of medicinein the last few years. The germi theory had been a powes ful factor in this advancement. Stu- dents of medicine had come to realize that they needed a broader ficld for the success- ful prosecution of their researches, and they had oecouie more studious. The effect of this had been most salutary upon both physicians and patients. Its effect npon the cluo had been a good one and nad done much to aid in the success which had crowned the organiza- tion. G ““I'ne Social Element in Our Profession™ was responded to by Dr. Eleanor Dailey. The doctor said the social foature is a very important factor in the physician's life, which is fuily appreciated by the new doc: tors. “‘Occasions like the present are green 8pots in our lives,” said tho speaker. The lady closed with a short poem in which the particular hobbies of the various members were dwelt upon in & humorous way and all of the members were made the subjects of witty hit Dr. W. F. Milroy, in the absence of Dr, Crummer, responded to the toast, ‘‘The Moral fluence of Our Work.” The speaker said that it is the experience of physiciaus that the persons they come 1 _contact with are influenced by their presence. Especially is this so in the case of the *‘family physi- cian,” who comes in contact with the mem- ers of the family and exerts a great influ- ence over them, ~The subject of proper saa- itation was also touched upon and the plagues of Eurove attributed to the sanitary condi- tion of their surroundings. The teaching of bygiene in the public schools to a greater ex- tent than is now done was advocated. Dr. W. O. Bridges was callea upon for a response to the toast, **The Humerous Side of Practice.” He said he had never had any humerous experience himseif, but related several humerous incidents in which other members took place. he Psychological Aspect of Practice” was responded to by Dr. Clarke Gapen 1n an eloquent manner. He alluded to the com- paratively new theory of disease which is likely t modify the conceptions of the mediology of disease. Many of the diseases which have been regardeda as local are really general, Many of these ailments originute at the brain centers. The brain exerts a great influence over the body, und many ailments may be traced directly to it. ‘The doctor next alluded o the fact that tho physiciau 1s rapidly assuming the placo formerly occupied by the priest, in being the confident of many in their joys ana sorrows, and advised the cultivagion of a knowledge of the soul, one of the most evanescent things known to man. Dr. Harold Gifford was calied upon to re- spond to the toast, *Matrimony in the Prac- tiico of Medicine,” and responded by declin- ing to say anything, as the hour was late. Dr. Stone then declared the meeting ad- Journed. —— BLUGGED AND ROBBED, George Hammond , Nearly Killed by Highwaymen, ‘There was a very bold and brutal slugging and robbing about 12 o’clock last night in the vicinity of about,1130 North Nineteenth streot.

A stiff sole ina shoe would not help, but absolutely prevent dancing. And, besides, the “strain is not on the toes, but it comes ou the rear of the ankle. I believe that’s what you Americans call it.
