Saville, late a member of the board of education, has returned from South America, Early last November the doctor started on his journey for health and speculation, He had read a great deal of that country and he went to explore it in his own way. Landing at Maracaibo, the capital of Venezaeln, the doctor spent all of his time in the western part of the republic at Lake Marracaibo. Tne latter is 125 miles long and seventy-five miles wide. The country is a pertect garden of Eden, The climate is delightfui, The thermometer ranges, on an average, from fifty to eighty above, the year round 1he doctor's traveling after landing at Marucaibo was done on horseback, and his companions were natives of that country. “The Spanish language,’ ho said, ‘s spoken altogether. Among the lower classes there is some Negro blood but they all speak Spanish. The immeuse forosts of hard wood at ed my tention, at si I'hey have past twenty-five specimens: cedar, ma- tra at hogany, ebony, box wood and & number of other ieties that are unknown in this country, They are all cabinet woods, ““The soil is fertile, Evory vroduct that can be raised i Nebraska is grown, but the principle one is coffes. This isplanted on the on the hiliside and on the mountains, lm- mease crops ure grown each year, So far as corn and vecetubles are concorned, the farmers, or peons, as they are called there, do but little cultivating. ‘I'ho climate is the same tho year round.

The natiyes work for $ and 10 per month, All they are allowed aside from this are rations. T'he latter consist of checse, salt meats, cocon and plantuins, The plan tains grow similar, but much larger thin o bunana. They are pealed and fried and used a8 a substitute for oread. In fa a native will refuse bread for a bunch of plantain, Very little bread 1s eaten, *“I'he houses ure nearly all built of hard wood and concrete. In the citiecs, more or less Spanish tile is used, The peons make their roofing from a native flag, luey are willing workers, but must have some person to oversee and direct them all the time, In my travels through the coun.cy 1 was surprised at how hard thoso ~ fellows work and how Little ambition they have to make mone; They wouldn’t let a tourist pay for u meal. The majority of the peons are uneducated. “But their schools are improving wonder- fully. 1took particular pains to visit sev- eral of them. In the cities they have three different ems. One is supported by the government, one by the city, and the third by the church, The two former are the more progressive, Nearly every one balongs to the Catholic church. ‘There are only a few protestant churches in the entire republic. Spanish and German are taught exclusively, “Business men, according to law, must keep their books in Spanish, *“I'he natives are all great smokers. Men, women and children use tobacco in almost r favorite drick is rum. As a class, they are not very dissivated. ‘Ilhey manufacture their own liquors and make good stuff. It is sold in grocery and cigar stores as well as in sa- loons. More or less gambling is going on in the various club rooms, but the fellows there gamble differently from Americans, ‘Chere 18 no excitement and only small aniounts chauge hauds. They seem to play more for the plessure there is in it than for mouey. % “IThe soil is fertile and, in my opinion, there 18 a vast amount of undeveloped wealth in this particular valiey and near by, especially in the Cordilleras mounts. But the ~Goajira (Wahira) Indians are there and are savage. Our little com- pany narrowly escaped a band of them whilo riding over the mountain, That same night five out of a party of six tourists were killed by the Goajiras. I visited five villages whe there is no one but Indians. The women were at work spicning out the wild cotton on home-made looms ana the meu were loaf ing about in the sun. 7The Indians of this race are short, muscular fellows and can travel on an average of six miles a hour for a whole day. The guides wear nothing but a breecheloat, belt and moccasins. In their belts they carry a half dozen arrows witn poisoned points and in their hand an immense bow. **The principal game is deer and wild tur- key. Fishing is good.

THE ‘ou tako pains to say for him that .he was inveigled into that firm when ‘‘young and unsophisticated,” and that when he saw its internal workings he was ‘‘shocked and withdrew. This canses me to smile. You can't make any one believe that Mur« phy withdrow from a firm or from anything ¢lse simply because 1t was corrupt. During his partnorship with James Creighton and myself ho saw more of respectability and honor and fair dealing thaa he had seen in all his preyious life ana more than he will sco again between now and _his burial, be- cause recently he seems to studiously avoid all theae virtues in his associations He cannot for any length of time be keot in good company. He speedily drifts back 10 his ratural element of socicty. No, Mr. itor, Murphy never drew out of a firm because of anv unfair dealing on the purt of othor members, Decency i the only thing that will make Murphy recoil with any degree of velocity. There are worse men than Murply and there are many better ones, I 18 no saint and probably does not claim to be. If he did his claim would not be allowed by those who know him, and he is widely known.

COURT REFORMS, Result in Saving Time and Expedi- tious Work, The four district judges were at work in their respective rooms at 9:30 o’clock, o very unusual occurrence, and one of the benefi- cial results of the new rules adopted at the beginning of the term at Judge Clarkson's instance. Undor the old order it was the custom of the four judges to meet in the main court room and spend an hour or more 1n calling the docket and assigning cases for trial in the various rooms. The new rule provides each judge with his share of the cases on the special docket and each calls his own list ot trial cases and procecds to business without further delay. A bul- letin is kept for each court. room so that attorneys are cnabled to know just what cases will be called and in what room. The innovation is a very pieasing ono to the attorneys who thus save from one to two hours timo euch morning, Another appreciated reform is the system of bulictining cases on trial and to be called. On each judge's bench is a bulletin board on which is noted the number of the case on trial and the numbor of the next case for trial. There is also indicated, by ‘another card, whether or not there is a probability of the second case being called tfor trial on the day. An attorney by a mere glance at the beneh knows whether a case in which he is interested will be called for trial on the ornot. The rules are expected to be the meaps of greatly expediung court busi ness Judge Clarkson has been unfortunate thus far in getting to work on she criminal docket. ‘The case against £3d Quinn for for- gery, was postponod Wednesduy on account of the illness of the defendaut’s attorney, and that against Willlam Feagios for shooting his stepmother was set for hearing,. When the case was called yesterday Mrs, Fea- gine was reported dangeiously ill and o postbonement was made necessary. William Mills, charged with having burglarized Frost & Harris’ carriage shop, was callea and dis- missed by the county attorney. Today tho cuse agairst M. L. Lewis, charged with stealing $500 worth of goods from Andrew Peterson, will be called. The trial of George Myers, charged with the murderof Nels Plauteen, will be called next Monday, Judge Wakeley rendered two decisions yesterday. In the case of the Union Pa- cifle railway comuany vs the city, an applica- tion for excemption of certain lots from city taxes; a decision was given exempting part of the lots and holding others liable for taxa- tion. In the case of Ish vs Finley a decision was given in favor of plaintiff. Finley bought a lot of Ish and then refused to pay for it be- cause Ish had previously donated a right of way for u street thraugh a portion® of the property. Ish brought suit and was sus- tained. The Chicago Lumber company has com- menced suit against Henry Lingouner to re- cover $03,28 on a mechanic’s lien. Edwin O'Hara alleges that the Omaha Consolidated Vinegar company is indebted to him 1n the sum of $1,860.10 on a promis- sory note, which sum he seeks to recover. Monday morning Judge Clarkson will try Ed Ball on the charge of horse stealing. Tuesday the case aguinst John Deun, the neero. who burglarized® the residence of W. H.

Late Tuesday night Tue Bee received a teleeram from Provo City, Utah, signed “United States Marshal,” stating that De- tective Crow of Lincoln had been shot and killed at Frisco, Utab, by a mail. robber whom he was trying to arrest. No dotails were received aod an effort to secure the facts proved futile until Wednosday nivht, when in reply to. 4 roquest, Tue Brs cor- ‘respondent at Provoitity telegraphed as fol- lows: My attention has been called to dispatches in regard to reported killing of Crow. In- quiry of the Frisco telegraph operator today elicits the fuct that Crow was not killed 1 Frisco. The dispatch signed “U. S. Mar- shal,” stating that Crow had been shot dead in Frisco Utah, by mail robbers, is a hoax and was probably sent by Crow himself, Inquiry was also made of Tue Bee's agent at Salt Lake City, who telegraphed as fol- lows: See apecial from Provo this evening in re- gard to shooting of Crow at Frisco. The op- erator at Provo tolls me therc-is nothing in it whatever. The Unmted States marshal here knows nothing about it, The probubilities are that Crow has some sort of & scicme on hand, but just what he is up to has not yetbeen ascertained. e The Great Rock lsland Route.
