A Prominent Doctor Arvested for Neglecting to Report Diphtherla Cases—Rounding Up the Sa. loons —School Board Matters. N. J. Miller was set free yesterday after having been locked upin the black hole for forty-eight hours on suspicion of being a cat~ tle thief, Miller is hot and threatens to nake itextremely interesting for some one. He says a fellow named 154 Bries, who has been working on different farms in Mills county, was the chief cause of his trouble, Miller is a farm hand also, and knew Bries in Mills county. Foramonth past Miller has been digeing o crop of potatoes for Sheriff ONeil and s sid to be a bardworking, honest fellow. Ac- cording to his story, Bries, meet- ing him here, renewed former 'acquain- tance, und confirmed it by borrowing some money of him, Later Briesasked him to walk up to police headquarters, as he wanted to see Chief Cary, who was an old friend, He onsented, and while Bries was inside talk- to Chi vy Miller sat ou the steps in- y After a while he was called i too, and was then informed that he must be looked up, He says he was refused tosend for au attorney, was or hearing, und 1t was not hours had ' passed that he Attorney Lindt secured demanding ome show- something by which they claimed to have the right to hold the man.

There was lying in the city clerk’s office nearly all day yesterday an information charging a very prominent pysiclan in the city with willful violution of the state law requiving the teporting to the health ofticers by physicians all cases of con- tagious discascs. The information was drawn in the usual manner and bore the of- ficial seals and the names of the clerks of the superior and police courts. The clerk had ulso filled out the warrant for the arrest of the physician and the marshal was wait- ing patiently to the document turned over to him for service, But he waited until late in the afternoon and in vain, for th Q- son that there was no complaining witness, 10 one willing to sign the information aud be- come the prosecutor of the doctor. Toall in- quiries the answer was returned that the ofti- cers were waiting for the appearance of the city physician, whose duty it was to becomo the prosecutor. "his is o step in the right direction,” said acity oficer. *It makes no difference how promiuent the physician may be, if he disre- gavds or violates the law he should be pun- ished just the same us the commonest va- grant, The law was made to protect tho pub- lic, and it is a wise and beneficent law. If na person can be found to sign that in formation beforenight I will do it myself, al- though the doctor who will be made to suffer is o friond of mine whom I respect highly. It is & case of malignant diphtheria, and the neglect of the physician may have been the means of exposing a great many peopleto the contagion and spreading the disease. People do not as a general thing like to have their homes placarded with the big yellow posters when their children take the htheria, and they will freqaently use every pos- sible memns to induce the physi- cian mot to report the case, or try to bribe the marrhal not to put up the card when he appears with it in compliance with his duties. Thney will threaten the doctor withthe loss of their patronage if he reports it, and several physicians that I know suy they have lost their y ce in good families because they persisted in doing their duty and reporting the cases. *“There has been a great deal of diphtheria in the city during the past summer, aud sev- eral times it has indicated a tendency to be- come epidemic. The only way to prevent it or ut least what is considered the means of stamping it out, is the strict enforcement of the state board of health rules, which have been adopted by the city council The council meets next Monday night as a board of health and I think they will pass a resolution requiring a stricter enforcement of the health laws than bas prevailed for some time past. Weall fear the diphtheria and we all desire to have it kept a from our homes. We will not go near it or let our loved ones be exposed if we know where it is located, and the only way we can know this is to be advised in the oficial manner pre- scribed. While the talk about the filthy con- dition of the city which some of the papers have indulged in and become hyste over is all bosh, it is probable that the council will order a general cleaning up. The streets and alleys of the city were never in a better or cleaner condition, and I do not believe there has been or will be a single case of dis- ease due to the existence of filthin any puo- lic place. But still there are some things that should be looked after. They are es- ecially the open vaults of outhouses. Many them are so offensive that they be detected a block away, and they are certainly cou- taminating the air and spreading di easeor creating it in their neighborhood. There are hundreds of such places that the board of health should order tilled up. And then there are many wells that should be filled up to prevent the peoble upon whose premises they aro located using the water they contain. It may look clear and nico, but it caunot be otherwise than impregnated with poson owing to the surroundings. Whether the board of health does this or not, one thing is sure, the physicians of the city will be requived to comply with the law and report all cases of cont; us diseases that come under their professional observation.” —_— Own Your Home.

City Marshal Templeton was providea with a list of the saloonkeepers of the city yester- day who bad so far neglected to come up and settle for their October licenses. The list filled four sheets of legal cap paper, two llues being given to each delinquent. The list comprises sixty-four names, The monthly licenso or fine which each of these men is edto pay amounts to $21.70. Of this sum ®o0s into the city treasury and the remaining £2.70 Is absorbed in court’ costs and marshal’s fees, This reaches the handsomo total of #1,774.80, all of which goes into the city cash box with the exception of $172.80 court and marshal’s costs.

Aieiye <t An Important Discovery. ‘While the police officers were searching for the gambling rooms last night near Fort Omaha they made a discovery that may lead to & number of arrests. They found in ome private house sixteen kegs of beer and three cases of wine, a small saloon in fact, doing business on the quiet and having neither a city nor a government license to sell liquor. In another place they found ten kegs of beer and in another six kegs. These places undoubtedly sell a vast amount of liquor to the soldiers and create a great deal of disturbance about the barracks by furnishing those who are i clined that way o opportunity todissips GERMANS' DAY, It Will be Colebrated in This City Tomorrow.

The performauce left little to bo desired from a vocal point of view, but the romantic role of Alfred suffered on ac- count of Mr. Guille's stature. Art should be above the desiro for physical beauty, probably in a tenor, but it will be universally conceded thatvoeal ability coupled with & manly presence adds greatly to such a role as Alfred Germont. And this is sail in no way derogatory to Mons. Guille, for his ability as an artist is ungues- tioned. Miss Guthric sang the score of Violetta in a manner that left little to be desired. She is beyond question one of the most capavle artists now before the publie, her work at all times being intelligent and conscientious. Mr. Mertens, while not a great George, was quite pleasing. The only fault to be found is with his articulation. The chorus was in ex- celleat form and the opera wis given with excellent effect, Tonight this company will be seen at the Grand in that ost delightful of allthe grand operas, ‘“Trovatore.” Morris Guille Il sing the role of Manrico, Miss Guthri Leonora and no company now entour is so well constituted to give this opera than the Hoss opera company, which closed at the Boyd last night. At the corner of Fourteenth and Chicago streets there has been established one of the most unique cntertainments which has yet visited this city, Itis called the labyrinth, It consists of a serics of paths leading be- tween canvass walls in « direction. The objeet is to reach a flag staff which is located 8048 to be visible from allpartsof thesquare. The party who reaches this pole after having traversed the devious ways, is entitled to a draw_at a certain time, fora valuable prize. The attempts to reach the pole lead frequently to the getting of the_enthusiast lost so rhuch that he is compelled te allow one of the attendants to lead him out. This causes a great deal of good-natured laughter, which is all the more deiightful if the attempt to reach the goal is made by a fairsized party of ladies and gen- tlemen. The price of admission is only 10 cents. A e REPUBLICAN IPAIGN DATES.
