HOYT'S QUEST FOR PLEASURE. Exporience of a Philadelphia Drommer Beeking the Elephant in Omaha. HE GOT IN WITH A VERY TOUGH GANG. ¥is Money Was Wanted, but His Sus- picions Saved His Cnsh—Story of One Night on a Bender. Somo three months ago James Hoyt, n Philadeiphla traveling man, came to Omaha and was soized with a wild desiro to put a «coat of carmine paint upon the town, Ho didn’t know just how to go at it, 80 he engaged Pat Koyes, a hackman, to steer him outo some fun. After talking with the Philadelphian for a while Keyes smd ho kuew where & real nice milliner Lived, and proposed that Hoyt engage her company to liven things up. This was agreed to, and Hoyt and the alleged milliner started for a road house in Keyes' hack. On the drive out Hoyt noticed a horso and buggy. with a single occupant, following his carriage. This continued for some time, and finally mado the commercial tourist so nerv- ous that he ordered a return to the city be- fore the rond house was reached Upon the return of the party to the city thoy were driven to the ‘“Creoles,” L North Thirteenth streot resort. Once tnside the trio proceeded to nhave a fine large time. Champagne flowed like water aud Hoyt was rapidly accuinulating a ood sized jag. When theif revelry was at ts highost the door of the room which Hoyt and the milliner occupied was suddenly burst open, and a big burly man domanded to know what the visitor from the east was doing with his sister, Whilo the men were arguing the woman quickly picked up her wraps and left the house, The “brother” demanded money, and Jots of it, but Hoyt swore that he had gone broke when he paid for the last bottle of wine. This settled tho matter for the time, and the angry men separated. As fustas his legs could carry him the drummer made for police headquarters, where he reported the matter. It was very little " Information. e could . mvo the polico beyond the fact that te had been robbed of a wallet containing valuablo papers. Hoyt did not miss bis pocketbook until after he had left the *Cre- oles,” as his money was in & roll in his panta- loou pocket. The polico went to work on the case, and the arrest Tuesday night of Harry Robinson by Oficer Rouser was the first step toward bringing the guilty parties to justice. It seoms that Keyes and Robinson had put. upa job to roo the strangeron the way to the road house, but the return of the car- riago balied the game. The alleged milliner Was the mistress of Robiuson aud sho lived until yesterday In room 4, of the Anderson block. By threats of arrest Koyes was made 1o confess, and he told the whole story of how, failing in their attemptto rob Hoyt near tho road house, they placned not only to rob him, but to biackmail him also at the Thirteentli street resort. Hearing of her lovor's arrest, the woman hastened away to Council Bluffs, and as she 13 supposed to bave the stolen papers in her possession the police are very anxious to et 1f she cau be located the police state that she will be arrested and brought back. Word has been sent east to Mr. Hoyt, but whether he will return to prosecute Robinson and the woman is not known, asno word has been recaived from him yet. It was a well Iaid plan and it was fortunato for Mr. Hoyt that he did not have his money inthe wallet, as cash was what the trio were after, —_—— “Excuse, me, George, but when I saw you 8 yoar ago your face was covered with pim- pies: it seems to be all right now.” *‘Yes, pir, that's because I stuck (o Ayer's Sarsa- rilla, the greatest blood medicine in the rorld.

T'ne only member absent w Auditor Benton. ‘T'he matter of giving a re- hearing to tho case of Remer vs the B. & M. railway company, was the iirst thing that camo up for consideration. This is tho case in which an underground crossing is asked for under the track ef the B. & M. railway where it passes through Romer's farm, near South Omaha. It was decided to postpone a consideration of the matter until Monday next at 10 a. m., when it is expected there would be a full attendance of the members ot the board. The complaint known as that of Gustin vs the Union Pacific railway company, in which 13 it alleged that thero has been discrimina- tion in rates between Hastings and Kearney was also deferred until next Monday, although Captain Hill insisted on an im- mediato hearing. The Stamford station caso was then con- sidered. The citizons of Stamford have boen without station facilities since March 1, and ask for the same. The board decided ununimously to order the B. & M. to furnish the villago of Stamford with all necessary froight and_passenger accommodations by August 15, because by that time some of the farmers would begin to ship their grain. On recommendation of Secretary Dilworth, rale fourteen of the rules of practice in cases and proceedings of the board was amendoed 80 as to read as follows: In cases of rehearing the petition must be vorified in the same manner us a complal and a eopy thereof, with a notice of the ti and place of the application ust be served upon the opposite party at preceding the diy named for the applic nust be filed in the offico of tho secreta- at least five duys bofore the day sot for the final hearing. Jim Ferris presented a bill for 33 for steno- graphic services for the old board. On mo- tion of Attornoy General Hastings the bill was rejocted, as the board had a rognlar ste- nographer at tho time, and as Ferris had been cmployed by Garber of the old board. Mr. Hastings suggested that all bills be hereafter closoly scanned and investigated by the aecrotaries bofore veing presented to the board. A number of small bills were presented and allowed. Secretary Johnson asked the members of the board as to what ho should ao_concern- ing the enforcement of the warehouse bill, and asked if it_would notbe aavisablo for him togo to Kansas City or Minneapolis, wheore similar laws were in effect, and study the workings of tho same. Mr. Hastings did not think a trip into some other state neces- sary for a man to post himself, Secretary Johnson said that he would al- most b willing to pay his own fare to go into_another state to learn of the practical workings of the law. State Treasurer Hill remarked that he did not object to Johnsou’s going to somo other state as long as he paid his own way and did not stay long. The “board of socretaries was instructed that they were subservient to the board of transportation in the matter of warchouses as well as in other ways. “The boara then adjourned to meet Monday next, De.
