A 1heory Regarding the Use of the Shot ¢ Chief Seavey states that some of his mos are working upon u number of the Slues which have lately been obtained in the Jones murder case. A groat desl of the wark. however, yields but very little, yet it Lus to be done in order to follow up the traces. The chief of course declines to make vublic the points which are belng con- sidered lest the officers may fail in securing the information which is so greatly desired. He has wade up his mind, however, to scarch the well at the Pinney farm, which thus far bas received, 8o far as known, but little attention from snybody. Whether so astute a criminal as Neal would deliberately tarow a revolver in such a place, whence it uight be recoversd to his discomfiture, is couslidered questionable, It would be considered more likely that he would caat the weapon into some of the ud- lacent flelds, which are now untrodden and Will remuin 0 until they are being put under to commence work on the viaduct | THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: THURSDAY, cultivation.

Chief Seav 1s the testimony of the young woman who saw Neat Tuesday, May 4, with & shot zun on his arm, crossing Four- teenth and Farnam street, and begins to think that 1t was that weapon witn which the deed was done, He knows of instances in which bullets have been fired from shot guns and passed through the body of the victims. The bultet found on the eround looks as though it had passed from the gun without being marked by the rifle leads. In view of the fact that ihe bullet courses through the bodies of Mr. and Mrs. Joies took the same general direction, the shots must have been fired at almost the same in- stant, This, the chief thinks, could have been done by a shotgun, one batrel of which could have had four or more bullets and the other only two, Schellenberger's Fear of Neal. When Shellenberger was taken to the county jail Tuesday afternoon he was led paat the cell in which Neal is confined. + Sheriff Boyd halted in front of the cage and asked Jailer Miller if there was any place for Shellenbergar except in the cell with Neal. “That's the only place I have for him,” re plied Miller. At that aonouncement Shellenberger turned pale as a ghost while Lis oyes started from their sockets from fright. Ho was so badly overcome that he fcll against the wall and had to be supported. Finally, he gasped out: “For God's sake, don’t put me in there. If vou do Neal will kill me.” Yes, put him in here, sheriff,” said Neal, who had witnessed the scene, ‘and I'll prom- ise you I'll save you fromany further trouble with him." “Would you kill Boyd. ‘Just try me,’ eal replied, almost in a coaxing tone of voice. Snellenberger was removed to a private cell and locked up. He was greatly over- come by Neal's threat and is in constant fear that he will be comuetled to have Neal for a cellmate. him?" asked Sheriff There is nothing like Dr, Thomas' Electric 0Oil to quickly cure a cold or relieve noarse- ness, Written by Mrs. M.

Gambling and burgling alwa oe- cupy a good deal of publ attention during the course of a year, says All the Year Round There is not a very obvious conu on between the two, vet the subtle movalist may find an as- sociation. Both are pursuits of men who ought to be otherwise and more profitably engaged, Both ave the ex- pression of a desive to acquire riches sat one stroke, or, at the most, two cotrokes—and to avoid the monotony of continuous lubor. And both are the re- sults of radical misconceptions on the part of the practitioners. Nobody ever gets rich but it is open to demounstration the sumoe amount of skill, of energy, of montal dexterity and of acute percapion wera expended in produc- tive work of some kind, as is expended on games of chanee, the rewards would be substantial and certain, Again, the burglar who burgles on a lurge scale is vlaying against fearful odds, d is certain to come to grief or later; while if he burgles on a small scale he can but snateh a p rious and insignificant distance, considerably below what he might eusily earn by egitimate industry in lawful hour; There is, porhaps, a charm of excite- ment in burg which fascinates the professional outlaw, even as the axeite- ment of the turf or of curas enthralls the professional gamester., But to take a plain, practical view of both pursuits, and one apar togetherfrom the ethes of the matt is to lead one to the con- clusion that neither game is worth the candle. The law, of course, takes other views of both. The bup indulges in his exciting careor at the expense of the community, and injures everybody in- cluding himself. The gambler indul in his hubitual excitement without in- juring directly anybody but himself and those dependent upon him, who, from & social point of view. muy be regarded as part of him The burglar, there- fore, is objective in his existence: the gambler subject To put it other- wise, the burglar is a common enemy and the gambler nobody’s enemy but his ow by gumbling, that if cerebral LINCOLN POLITICAL GOSSIP, Burlington Tools Indulge in a Time- | ‘Worn Subterfuge. AGREE TO DISAGKEE. THEY arquette and Deweese Favor Different Canaidates for the Governorship—Capitol Notes ~Court Matters. Split on the Governorahip. LixcoLy, Nev,, March 12.--[Special to Tnr Bee.|—The gossip goes in political circles that the Burlington's chief politicians are divided as to the candidacy of the governor- ship. Mr. Marquette is said to favor the nomination of Governor Thayer and Mr. Dewcese favors McCall of Lexington. This seeming split is thought to be due to a desire to conciliate the various roads of the stato and to get thom in humor to umte upon & candidate at the opportune time, McCall, let it be remembered, is known to be the center in John M. Thurston's political deck, and it is therefore alleged that he1s partuou- larly friendly toward the Union Paaific road. Be that as it may, the alleged ndi- viaual preferences of Marquette and De- weeso leads an old tmer to remark that just such & split was announced a few months ago. In the late suc- cession contest for congress in the Second congrossional district Deweese was pronounced for Secretary Laws and Mar- quette for Colonel E. D. Webster of Strat ton. The result is known to all. But ‘old timer” suggested that in this case history will not repeat itself. “I take it,”” he said, ‘‘that the Burling- ton’s managers will go upon the plan that turn about is fair play, and that machinery will be put in motion that will almost insure Thayer's nomioation, He is known to be conservative, yet positive, and would there~ fore be more readily endorsed by the rank and file of the republican party than any other candidate.” THE SUPREME COURT. The proceodings in the supreme court to- day wero as follows: The following gentlemen were admitted to practice: John W. C. Abbott, esq., of Dodge county; Damiel B. Carey, esq., of Dodge county.

A Pugilistic Fizzle, It wasn’t Jack Davis’' fault that Tuesday night's entertainment at German'a hall was a pugilistic failure. About two hundred sports were present, and outside of the main event of the evening—which didn't prove a main event—they witnessed three pretty three- round bouts. As an opener Frank Murray and Pete Purcell entertained the crowd with a pretty battle for points, in which neither got the best of 1t. ‘They were followed by Paddy Murray and Dan Phul, who went at each other for three rounds with a vigor that aroused enthusiasm, oth events were de- clared draws. 14 The main event of the evening was to be a ten-round fight to & finish between George Gordon of Omaha, aiias “Young Scotty,” and Fred Sussin of New York for a stake of $50 a side. Sussin stripped at 132 pounds and Gordon at 133, William Meldrum secouded Gordon and P. H. Larned attended to Sus- sin, Four ounce wloves were used and the fight was supposed to be for blood. When time was called Sussin plainly showed he had made a mistake in claiming to, bo a pugilist. He went at Gordon like u farmer and before @ minute had elapsed he was on the floor. He barely saved a knock- out by rising just as the ten seconds had ex- pired and they went at it again. Gordon played with nim like a toy and when time was called Sussin was grogzy. When he roalized that the round was at an end he made a dive through the ropes and ran to his dressing room like a whipped child. He had had enough for one mght.- The audience laughed n ridicule at the worst fizzle of a fight that has ever occurred in the west.” Bill McCune and Jack Davis, the bene- viary, wound up the evening's show with a three round bout for points. The local sports were disgusted with the exhibition but hope to see better things on Friday night at the same place. Under the auspices of the Magic City athletic club Dan Daly, the dapper looking little featherweight, will ‘have a twenty-round go with George Munroe, a soldier from Fort Omaha, posses- sing pugilistio skill. Several other events will be contributed to the programme by local sparrers. The Steaming Political Vot. The friends of “Foxy" McGuire, who is going to make a strong pull for the demo- cratic nomination for city clerk, don't waut" their man to be confounded with another Tom McGuire, who has aspirations for the place. “Foxy’s” name by right s Tom Me- Guire and hence the mixing up of individ- uals, John Ritchart is booming Pat Rowley for mayor. Tuesday Ritchart and Rowley paid a visit to Gretna in Sarpy county, pre- sumably on business having no political sig- nificance. Yesterday Councilman McMillan was at (iretna, presumably, too, on business entirely apart from politics, Thereare grave hints of a scheme, in _connection with these mysterious trips, to flad some Sarpy county man who will cross the line on election day for an easily imagined purpose, ‘The regis- tration law will protect the citizens from any such calanty. It is reported that Mayor Sloane had a letter written and ready for publication Monday positively aeclaring he would not accept a renomination for mayor, but was persuaded by his friends to withhold it. This is denied by friends of the mayor, who sa) he is still determined not to allow his nawme 10 be used in the democratic convention under any circumstances. In view of this George Parks is being talked of as the most available man to nominate to succeed Sloane. No Money in the Bank. Michael McGovern, the propriotor of the Theater Comique, wns in & pecl.of trouble yesterday. On the 7th ho gave a check for §19.90 to John A. Freyhan, proprietor of the Kentucky liquor house in Omaha, in pay- ment for a bill of gotids. The check was drawn on the South ' Othaha National banlk, but was returned to ‘Freyhan because Me- Govern had no money on deposit at the pank. Freyhan came down to South Omaha to have McGovern larrested for obtain- ing goods under false pratenses. Ofi- cer Fallon accompaniad him to the alleged theater, whera McGoyarn begged off until today, peunding an guswer to a telegram sent to his brother asking for mouoy to get him out of the serape. ' The alleged theater 'is said to be on its last legs. Chief Muahioney visited the place Sun- dny nigut and ejected. & number of small boys who were watching the crude perform- ance and contaminaling themselves by mingliog with the coarse habitues of the place. 4.7 Al McCracken's Bereavement.

Taey returned to Omaha late in the afternoon. Coopers Still Striking. The coopers are still out on strike and show no signs of weakening, Talkingto one of the men he said an erroncous impression oxisted, he thought, in regard to their posi- tion. Their demand for $3 a day the year around docs not mean that when the winter season comes again they will insist on a raise 0 83.25 a day. If the §3 a duy rate is agreed to by the packers now, that scale of wages will be_considered as permanent and un= changeable during all seasons. Manager Cudahy of the Armour house says they are experiencing no inconvenience in their business by the strike. He thinks the strikers will come back when they get tired of loafing. Captured a Young Burgiar, About a week ago the grocery store of W.
