State Development. There is a prospect that Omaha will be represented in Gilman's “World's Fair on Wheels" enterprise, which will be launched, it is now planned, about July 1. This scheme, which hns been explained at tength, consists in the exhibition.through the country of a train of cars containing samples of the pro- ducts from the various states represcuted in the entorprise. Already twenty-one cars have beev pledged, and cxhibits are being collected and placed in sk The matter of furnishing & car with Ne- braska exhibits for this train was praced be- fore the board of trade some months aco and referred to u committee, The committee has heen at work, and is now confilent that a car can bs fitted up to properly display the products and industries of the state. The state board of agriculture rofused to lend any aid to the projoct at first but ex-Governor Furnas has takon a lLively iterest in the plun ana has secured the co- operation of a number of the prominent ag- riculturists of tho state. Arrangements have been perfected for the free transporta- tion of exhibits to Othaha where the car will It is proposed to make a vory tion of sumpies of the coreals, fruits, vegetables, flowers and minerals and the manufactured products of the state for exhibition in the car. The work of securing this display ana properly arranging it will cost about 82,000, for which expense a fund is being collocted. ‘Tho combination when completed will be exnibited ut all of the principal southern and eastorn cities, The State Development Assoclation. “'Somehow they are all jealous of Omaha and won’t contribute.” . Tho speaker wns Secretary Nason of the board of trade. “They” are the towns and citics of the stato and ,thesobject for which contributions are not received is the perpe- tuity of the State development association. ‘Ihe association was formed here in June last and was composed of representatives from almost every board of trade or other organization in the swate and had for.its Tauduble purpose the advertisement of the stato 1n generi The walls of the board of trade room in which the meeting was held, resounded with the eloquence of enthusias tic business men from all parts of the state upon the good results that were to follow the organization, Tho state was to be thoroughly and systematically advertised, railroads were to~ be built, eastern capital was to be lopped off in chiunks for Nebraska investments, and a vide of prosperity was to set in and Nebraska was o take it ot its flood. Committees were appointed to sccure the accomplishment of these desired results, Secrotary Nason, of the board of trade, was chosen secretary of the new association. A small sum was secured as _imtiation fees and any further fuuds needed for the good of the cause were to be collected by assess- ments. There was a little preliminary work towards a state‘ advertising scheme, but when the secretary called for funds for the further prosecution of the work he received buta trifle more than enough to cover the cost of postage used in making the call for cash. Since then nothing has been done. “Iam putting in my time m getting out the annual report of the board of trade,” said Secretary Navon. ‘“When [eet through with that I will go ufter the State develop- ment association ugain, and see if I can not get thew united in favor of some plan for the atate's advancement.” VISIIORS FROM BEATRIOE.

What May Become of Old Fort Omaha, It has been suggested that old Fort Oumaha might be utilized as p military acad- emy, and the congressional delegation, 1t is understood, have taken it up aud will en- deavor to bave congress take action ia the matter., Speaking of the question a prominent army officer said: “‘The proposition has come from several quarters, and General Mauderson 18 now 10- teresting hiwself in the matter. The property will have to be deeded over to the state by the United States government for that purpose, Some competent wman could then be but in charge and the institution would e _equipped with a faculty and conducted on preciscly the same »rinci ple as & university, except that the studeats would be under military discipline, formed and drilled by an army ollicor. academy at Chester, Pa., is the best example of the kind that I think of and I am positive that some of the men who gave that institu- tion its prominonce would be glaa to take hold of the Omaha academy. With the im- meuse ficld we uave here there is no reason why we should not have an attendance of {rom 200 to 500, which would mean a great deal for Omaha. Such an academy sending out its graduates every year, many of whom would doubtless take a prominent position in military and civic affairs, with the inter: est the government would naturally take in it, would do more to aavertise the cily than thie post doos now, * “The academy would be strictly a military institution with the popils under the strict- est kind of a drill and at the same time the curriculum would embrace all the subjects of a thorongh English and ciassical educa- o “It. will be readily understood that the graduates of such an ivstitution would be equipped with not only a comprchensive book education but with the physical culture aud development which accompanies military arill and discipline. “The post grounds are eminently fitted for such @ purpos The climata unsurpassed and with a building or two though perhaps none will be needed on the beautiful grounds with a staff of cuitured instructors nad an attend- ance of from two to four hundred cadets Omuha might consider the fort well lost. “Lsincervly hops the result will be con- summated and from all we can learn there are good grounds for our hopes. 'be ncademy would be supported partly by the state und partly by the taition fees of the students,” MORE OF NEAL'S RASCALITY. Ris Re: rd in the Binffs Gradaually Coming to Light, Dan Carrigg of the Miat, in Counci Riufts, is confident that he hasa grievance against Neal, the murderer, Shortly after Neal's release from the penitentiary he appeared in the Bluffs and visited the Mint several vimes and particivated in s« few of the games, but was neitber distinguished as & winner nor loser. This was about the mid- dle of January. One night while Neal was there three Omaha gentlemen came in and went into the back rooms. i3efore gomg in one of them laid off & very fine fur-trimmed overcoat, valued av $70, and left it in care of the bar- tender. An hour later Neal came out of the gambling rooms, walked without any hesi- tancy to where the eoat was lymng on the sate, picked 1t up, put it on, and then came around in front of the bar, and ufter chatting @ moment with the bartender, walked out. Whean the owner of the coat called for it the bartender recollected seeing Neal put it on, und then realized for the first time that the fellow had accomplished a theft before his eyes without attracting his attontion, He at once started out to find him, and suc- ceoded 10 doing 0 1w very short time, Neal admitted takiug the coat, but claimed it was a mistake. He said he bad left the garment in his room, and would go at once and get it, He was 80 plausible that he con- vivoed the mau of,becr that it was only au unfortunate plunder, which he was anxious to rectify. Neal promised to briug vhe coat 10 the saloon in & fow moments, and the bar- tender returned happy. But neither the coat nor Neal showed up during the uight, aud the Omahs man went howe minus s roperty. Currigg gave orders 1o have the yolllwl arrested, but the anxiol bar- who had I:c muonubh} property, got abead o police ~ and 'caught Neal just as he was boarding & motor on Lower Broad - way for Owmsha. Again the excessive smoothness of Neal saved him. He invited the saloon wan to go with him and get the arment, and the two weot together to 500 firw]wl , where Neal got the coat from one of the inmates. eul then went to Omaha and did not show up again, It 1s a little strange that the frst address Neal inquired about when he came to Couns cil | Bluffs thres years ago with the stolen - horses from Missourt Val- ley was 800 Broadway, which is the notorious Belle Clover house of prostitution, This inquiry was made in the shoe store of E. E. Adaws, where Neal THE OMAHA DAILY boueht a pair of fancy red-topped buft-co ored boots. which furnished the chief moans by which Sheriff Garrison tracked him n Omaha and Council Bluffs after the stolen stock had been located. The boots came nearly to his hips, and their bright bufl- colored topa and tassels made him an con- spicuous as a small circus, On the occasion of both visits he spent a great deal of his time at No. %00, ‘where he seemed to find very congenial companionsip, Hoe wus arrested for the horse stealing in Boyington's barn by Officer Mullen, M. F. Sears, who was then con- nected with the circulating department of Tne Bee'in this city, read the description of the stolen horses inthe morning paper before 5 o'clock, and before 7 o'clock had located oneof the horses in Boyington's barn, on North First. The man with the tasselated boots was designated as the party who had left the horse, and it was by means of the boots that he was tracked and arrested. Sears obtained $40 of the &5 roward offered for the arrest of the thief and the recovery of the horses, The other horse was found in Fred Davis' barn, on North Mamn street. Neal had soid it to Attorney H. Waro, now representing the county in tho legisla- tore. Both of these borses were returned to their owner, but a third horse, a fine brown mave, which Neal brought hereand sold, was never called for. It was evidently stolen, but the owner could never be heard from, and the animal is suil here and is being driven on the strects, & Neal and Jones, Tuesday night about five o'clock, Mr. Joues, of irvington, & son of the murdered people called at the jail and was permitted to see the suspected prisoner. They were both given seats in Jailor Millor's office and Messrs O'Toole and Lyach wore near at hand during the conversation. Mr. Jones 18 a very quict geotleman and sat beside the alleged murderer with evi- dences of ill-concealed aversion, The talk was of rather a aesultory nature. Mr. Jones led with the question how he (Neal) could kill anybody, much less an old man and woman, Neal, with his usual smile, replied that he o't kill them, and contented himself with the denial without further enlargementson the subject. ‘“‘How did you come by mother's ring then!” asked Mr. Jones. That was not your mother's ring,” an- swered Neal. ““That was a ring I burglar- ized from @ house in_Lincoin. The veople up there who know it will recognize iv when they see it.”” He then deacribod the ring which is now held by County Attorney Mahoney, who, however, will not permit itto bo seen antil all claimants give a description to show that it is really the ring they claim to have lost. *I did not know that your father had a son of your age. I did notread of you, though 1 did read of your sister. § Neal then became very sympathetic and asked Mr. Jones to tell his sister that be did not really murder her father. Mr. Jones then asked Neal why he had told Dee, who nelped drive in tho stolen cat- tle, to take hay for the bedaing of tho calf in the wagon from another part of the hay stack than that near which lay the remains of the murdered womun. Neal was ready with s smiling denial tha he had ever told Dee anything of the nd. Neal's Prosecutor, Chief Seavey received a letter from J. A. Philiips, who wus prosecuting attorney of Harrison county, Iowa, when Neal and Joe Gray were convicted of horse stealiug. He writes that Gray's alias was Shellenborger, From his reading of Tnc Bee Mr. Pnil- lips says he does not believe Neal's story. His opinion is that if Gray was with Neal at all, the latter was the principal in' the crime, and that Gray was only a tool in his hands, ‘“Gray,” Le continued *is a very vain and conceited fel- low who is easily flattered, but has no nerve, sand or skill to plan. In fact he is a coward. if he did shoot he must under mstructions.” Gray’s mother lives, or did live in 1857, on a farm i Missouri Valley, Ja. Mr. Phillips describes Neal as a very desperate character who would not hesitate to do any- thing if there was a chaoce to clear himsolf, kave dome it Arraignment Later, County Attorney Mahouney said yesterday that ho had decided not to arraign Neal for several days. George Mills® Ducats. George Mills hung his overcoat in the hall- way of the Omahu club at 1 o’clock yester- day afternoon. He had only been iuside a few momeunts when be returned to the hall and discovered that $55 had been taken from his pocketbook, which was in a pocket of the coat. The police were notified and inside of an_hour Detective Haze had both the thief, named C. Pope, and the mondy. The fellow is the colored porter of the club. Pope was evidently in & big hurry when he got the mouey, a8 he 1efe:§30 more m the book tuat be might as well have taien, Pope was arraigaed before Judge Helsley yesterday afterncon. He admitted taking the money, and when asked what he had to say for bimself, remarked that he intended to take only 25, out that when ke came to look at what he supposed was & $5 bill he found it & §50 with a $5 wrapped up in it. He was held to ths district court in the sum of $300 for grand larceny. Exchange of Coats. Captain Mostyn arrested o well koown sneak thief yesterday named William Thomas. The feilow works in o boarding houss at 111 South Seventeentn streaet. While Johu Dean, another thief, was doing time in the county jail he sent word to Thomas to go to nis room and bring him a coat which he would ind in the closet. Thomas got the coat all right but instead ot giving it to Dean he put it ou and has been wearing it ever since. Yesterday Dean demandea his coat. Thomas gave him s a suostitute the oue which he had stoien from Mr, Howe. Dean had we coat with bim st the county jail when it was recovered. Plvmouth’s Representative: Yesterday the board of supervisors of Plymouth county, Iowa, accompanied by scveral others, visited the county jail to get 1doas as reg: n structure of the same kind to be built at Lemars, the couuty seat, The party was as follows: Chairman, Jumes Hughes, John Becker, A, Doring and Eli Peters, They were accompanied by County Auditor Fred Beeker, J.

John ey, who conducts two saloons, ono at the Exchange crossing and another at the eastern end of the Qstreet viaduct, yesterd morning mournod the departure of a bar- keeper and §700 of his cold cash. Tuesday was pay day at Swift's packing houso and, as is customary, the men wore paid with chocks made payable to boarer, The salooconkeepers uround South Omaha usually carry vlealy of cash on hand on packing house pay days with which to cash employes pay chocks. Tuesday afternoon Fry drew $000 from the bank and left it with Anton Alifiliset, tho bartender at his Q stroot satoon, The demands upon Fry's Q street cash pile are heavy on Swiit's woekly pay days. : Allfitisot got to drinking in the afterncon and before the men commenced to come in with their checks ho concluded to put space between himself aud South Omaha and take with him $700 of the $000 for spending money. When Fry discovered his losses he immediately noufied the police, and officers were vlaced on Alifiliset’s truck. Chief Maloney is con- fident he will capture him before he has a chance to spend the atolen money. All- filiset's fathor is said to bo joiutly interested with Fry in the Q street saloon where the robbery occurred. Chief Maloney and Fry went to Omaha yesterday in hopes of finding the thief, He is known to have had supper in Omaha Tuesday nigut. Allfiliset was infatuated with one of the females counected with the Peo- ple's theater, aud is supposed to have gone to meet her. Hubbell's Abrunt Deparvture. A conservative estimate of the amount of money sccurea from his friends by Ned Hubbell, the departed bank bookkeeper, is now pluced at not less than $300. New vie- tims admit their losses as a joke, while others sy nothing und saw wood. Seykora, tho druggists, cashed a $15 check that is worth- less. Endorsing friends wiil have to meet notes on which their names appear as a favor to Hubbell in case he fails to respond with the cash when the paper becow.es due. Had Hubbell went farther with his worth- less checks he could undoubtedly have cashed twice us many. So great was the confidence reposed in him by business men that any reasonavle request would be promptiy met by the money, His conduct is amystery o his friends, His accounts at the bank are iu perfect order and not a sin- gle action of Hubvell’s has vet come to the surface that could form the basis of a crimi- nal prosecution, He simply confidenced his friends ouy of every dollar he could gut on Friduay nignt.

They Bave Cost the Sharon listate a Snug Fortune, ‘“‘See that?” asked the waiter in the Palace hotel in San Francisco, holding up a dish fllled with black insects, *Caviar?” inguired an Examiner re- porter, to whown the question was ad- dressed. “Noj ants,”” was the sententious reply. *“T'his is my barvest sinconoon. Every other genileman in this dining room has collected as many more. The house is literally ovor-run ‘with them, and it has been for three years to my certain knowledge, “Treying to eviet these little crawlers has cost the Sharon estate $10.000, and it will cost many n thousand more be- fore any effec is made on these in- truders. They c in everywhere, and there is no w. nted to keep themout, Ldon'tthink we can get rid ot them without moving the hotel. They arein lots of houses, and nothing has been found that will feaze them. They are worse tnan flies, because poison docsn’t have any effect on them, and they are worse than cockroaches, be- cause they are smaller. *Do you see those gentlemen across the roow?

BUILT BY CHRISTIAN CAPTIVES, Ihe Stately and Superb Sma-Hassen Tower at RRabat, Afcies. 'he Sma-Hassen tower at Rabit, Al rica,is a superb structare, and although in purts unfinished aud damaged by lightning, is still lordly and beautiful. Built of hewn stone, brought from Spain and by the hands of Christian captives, and 180 feet from base to sum- mit, it presents on the outer side three tiers of large and elegnnt archos over comparatively small windows, and above the topmost arch & deep honey- comb of exquisite oarving. It hasa simplo grandeur of proportion that is veculiarly its own and very impressive, The ascent of the tower is made not by stairs, but by a scries of iclined planes, up_ which a horse might be rid- den three horses abreast, as Leo i- canus asserts, The lowest of these in- clined planes, which are made of con- crete and limo and sand, very hard and durable, was broken away in the time of the emperor of Sidi Mahomet, and by his ordér, 8o that now a ladder has t0 be used betore a footing oan be got. As the ascent is made a number of spucious stone chambers, chill, solemn, and tenantless. except by owls and bats, are passed, and when the top is reached a magnificent view 1s obtuined of the restless Atlantic. The tower is not merely a stately sen- tinel of the great mosque, but a lookout station and n beacon for ships at son. An iden of its grentness may be derived from the dimensions of the large undor- ground cistern, which supplied water for the lustrations of the worshippers who frequented it, ana which can even now be clearly traced out.

The three little daughters of the late General Phil Sheridan are pupils of the Convent of Visitation, on Coanecticut avenue, says a Washington letter to the Detroit Fres Pross, They are ds scholavs, living 1n retirement with their mother in their plain, quiet home on Rhode Island avenue. Mary, the eld- est, is about fourteen, and resembles her father, both in face and figure. he twins, Louise and Ireno, are twelve ars old and look very much like Mrs. Sheridan. They are dressed in plain black frocks and coats so exactly alike that tneir best friends cannot tell them apart. They wear their brown hair in a demi-length that admits of neither plait or curl. They have the pretty convent-bred manner of puying instant attention when spoken to, and are as serious as little nuns. But there isa naive originality about them that is charming. It was the twins who made that pretly speech a few years They were out walking, when ¢ strangers stopped them and asked if they were Goneral Sheridan’s children. **No,” said Louise gravely, *we are the twins.” “They are General Sheridan’s children,” said [rene, pointing to Mary and little Phil, who were following with their nurse. The boy is not omy the idol of the home, but of the whole neighborhood, his - usual cognomen being “Dear Little Phil.” Mrs. Sheri- dan goes nowhere except tochurch, and that is usually to early mass.

This is pulled down and fasteued to an ingen- iously made catch, or serios of catches rather, for it cun be set at any curve or angle to suit the operator. The spring 18 on a line with the home plate at the lower end of the yard. One of the players manipulates the machine while the others take turns with the bat. ball is placed in the cup. the operator fastens the spring down to any catch he chooses, the combinations of curves and straight balls being almost innumera- ble, while at the same timeit isan vt impossibility for the batsmuan to antic pate how it is going to come. When ready the operator relieves the catch and the ball is thrown with the force of a bullet. Children Cry for Pitcher’s Castoria, When Daby was sick, we gavo her Castoris.
