Liverymau Echluter Takes French Leave of His Many Oreditors, COMPLICATIONS OF HIS AFFAIRS, He Has Swindled Nearly Everyone He Met and Gone with Another Man's Wife—How He Operated. A. Schluter, who has been until the last or two the proprietor of a livery barn at Broadway, is missing, and there are sev- eral parties in the city who would like to hear from him. There have been rumors for some time past that his business was not conducted on theé best of business principles, but there has been nothing upon which his creditors could resort to extreme measures, until Sat- urday night when he left town apparently tor good. Ho took with him Mrs, Yount, with whom he has been living on Park avenue for several months past. The woman it is stated has a husband living in Sioux City. His flight was not discovered until yesterday morning. Officer & Pussy own the bnilding on lower Broaaway where Schluter has been doing business, The vroperty was leased until next July, but last De- cember the landlords became restless over their tenant’s failure to pay rent promptly. “They threaten to pusn him when he induced Dan Carrigg to sign the leaso with him. rigg in this way became to all intents and »scs the lessce of the building, and chiluter the sub-ten When Carrigg dis- covered that his protege played him false, he at once set about protecting himself, and had a lacdlord writ of attachment issued, for §%3,t0 secure the unpaid reut. Yesterday afternoon a further compli arose when the Citizen's State bank, s attorneys, Messts. Sims & Saunders, served a notice on tho city marshal that they held a mortgage on the establishment for § LUSES {3 is stated that for some time past Schiuer has been quietly dispositg of his horses, wagons, and mules, and the result is that there is not enough to’ satisfy the claims of the mortg- 8 ces Creditors are looming up by the dozen. L. Seybert, the proprietor of the Tremont house, chluter formerly boarded, mourns his departure €660 worth. Of tiis amount $160 s for a board bill and %500 fora loan which was made to the boarder when he was in better circumstances, Schluter had a con- tract from the city for the grading of Lincoln avenue, and the men who worked for him on that job are left in the lurch as to their pay. The amount of the shortage in this item being several hundred dollars. A part of the bill was to be paid by the school boord, and this sum was allowed to him by the school board at its last meeting. Schluter neglected to draw the money and it was at- tached yesterday afternoon by the Citizens® State bauk. Besides these, there are al- most innumerable smaller bills vnpaid in various stores about the city, One of the first evidences of crookedness that became publi a business trausaction which Schiuter haa with a party from St. Joseph. The St. Joseph man brought up a number of mules to be sold. They were sold by the proprictor of the barn for #8500 and Schiuter, it is claimed, pocketed the proceeds. A.J. Poppleton of Omaba was the buyer. Tnerquestion which will have to be set- tled between the bank aud Carigg is whether the mortgage or the landlord’s writ of at- tachment takes precedence. Carrigg stutes that he has examinea the records and has found that the stock was moved fuwe the stable August 3, while the mortzage was not filed with the county recorder until tke 6th, He claims that on this account his ciaim is prior to that of the mortgagee.

My next door neighbors have used ordinary burn yard fertilizers to bring their grass up to time, but there is no comparison between the two. My grass is decidedly the best on tue avenue, and the only _thing I bave used on it in the way of @ fertilizer is water from the waterworks.

Justice Patton could not be found all day and none of his friends could or would say whether the rumor was true or false. It is u fact, however, that a certain individual visited some of the persons who have taken the load in the prosecution and, asked them if they would be willing to drop the proceedings if he would re- sign. = The parties who wero thus approached replied that they had no power to drop the proceadings even if they - h ad the disposition to do so.

A tripjfrom Omaha to Denver and Manitou includes a ride through the famous Platte Val- ley of Nebraska and Colorado to Denver, the largest and most beautiful city of the Rocky mountains and along the foot of the Rocky mountain range from Denver to Manitou. The panorama which is laid before the eye of tne traveler in a journey from Denver to Mani- tou, includes ia oue sweep of the eye 300 miles of mountain peaks, snowy rauge, foot hills and canons. Long's peak, away to the north; Gray's peak, the dowe of the conti- nent; James' peak, the Arapahoo peaks, Pike's peak, the most famous of all moun- tains of Colorado, and away to the south, 300 miles from the point of observation, the three forbidden mountain tops kuown as the Span- ish peaks, are all in view for o part of the distance, Manitou is the most attractive of the many resorts of Colorado. Lying at the foot of Pike's Peak and at the entrance of the Garden of the Gods, it invites the tourist and sight seer to the most retharkable formations and the graudest and most pioturesque scenery of that rugged range. Its mineral springs and pure air give new life to the de- bilitated. The Pike's Peak railroad, a marvel of engineering skill, conveys passen- gers to the very summit of the lofty old mountain, From the top of Pike's Peak all the great mountain peaks: of Colorado are distinctly visibie, while to the east its tree- lined avenues at' right angles, looking like a checker board in the distance, lies the pretty little city of Colcrado Springs and beyond the great plains of eastern Colorado. A volume could be written, indeed volumes have been written, of the glories of Manitou and Pike's Peak. A ticket covering this tour is offered for the seventh largest list of subscribers. There is no American tour which combines a greater variety of scenery and a wider in- terest o the traveler than one from Omaha 10 San Francisco and Los Angeles, Cala. The tr veler passes through the states of Ne- braska Colorado, Wyoming, Nevada and California and the territory of Utah. Thisis the great bu siness belt” of the west and at every step of the journey something of inter- est presents itself, whether the tourist be student, business man or merely pleasure seeker. Nebraska and its prairies; Colorado and its mountains; Utah and its' wonderful Salt lake: Nevada and its arid plains and Cali- fornia with its innumerable attractions, are all compassed in this trip. Omaba, the most prosperous city in _the union today ; Denver, the queen city of the Rockies; Salt Lake, the Zion of Mormondom; San Francisco, the golden gate, and Los ‘Angeles, the City of Our Mother of the Aagels, form astring of jewels of rarest water. These are all prosperous cities; they are all beautiful cities; they are all wonderful cities, Each is romarkable for some particu- lar reason. No two of them are alike in jons and no traveler can afford sing to see each and all. In the months of June, July, August and September the prairies of 'Ncbraska, the Rocky mountains, tho valleys of Utah and the ange are seen to the best possible advantage. It is the fruit season of California, the sight seeing period of all the wountain countries and the pleasurable part of the vear for travel The ticket oftered by Tug Bee in return for the second largest list of weckly sub- scribers obtained by June 10, 1591, allows stop-overs at all poiuts of interest between Omaha and Los Angeles. A week or a month muy be spent at Denver visiting the pictur- esque mountain resortsadjacent_and another week can likewise be enjoyed at Salt, Lake in hunting, fishing, sight seeing and bathing in the great inand sea. As much time as the passenger likes may be enjoyably spent 1n San Francisco and other points in California, not excepting the lovely orange groves and fruit orchards of southern Californis, Niagara falls, the world's yreatest cavar- act, needs no glowing description. It canuot be described. Pouridg over a precipico 160 feet high, the immense volume of water of Niagara river, the outlet of the great lakes finds its way toward the ocean. — On_either side of the river are eplendid views of this tremendous waterfalk'above it and below it and ali about It are other scenes which have attracted travelers from all parts of the world. Goat island, te burning spring, the whirlpool rapids, the suspension bridge, are incidents merely to a visit to Niagara falls The fiela oo which the battle of Lundy Laue was foughtis within a few minutes drive on the Canadiad«side. The facilities for visiting all points .0f" interest on either side of the river are superior. The regula tions controlling access $0 and from the se eral points now prevent the exorbitant charees which were formerly almost as fam- ous as the cataract. A day or a few days at Niagara falls is oue great event in an aver- age lifetime, and no American should ever think of visiting tourist resorts abroad until he bas seen Niagara falls, He can have no appreciation of power, of grandeur, of awe- inspiring beauty, who has missed 4 visit to this world renowned spot.
