ED NEAL'S PICTURE 0F CUPID. The Artist Murderer Diligently at Work on | His Last Effort, WANTS TO FINISH IT BEFORE FRIDAY. Members of the Jones Family Want to See the Execution Arranges nts Being Made for the Hanging. I Governor Thayer is now the only man who can proyent Shorift Boyd commencing the work | tory to sending Ed Neal, the murderer of Allan sud Dorothy Jones, to his roward, Without the sheriff hears from the gover. nor Neal will, tonight, hear the found of hammers nailing together the gallows from which ho will swing next Friday. Yesterday the sherlff visited th Jumber vards and the materiul for the construction the stockade, which will be built in the southwest angle of the county jnil. The west wall of the south wing of the jail will form the east side of the stockade and the south wall of the west wing of the jail will form the north side of the enclosure The south and west walls will be built of boards, steod upon end, sixteen feel These boards will be nailed to strong irders, onc at th bottom, one 1 the middie and at the top. Iuside of this, tho gallows, with its seven foot drop, will be erected. Neal will be led from his celi down the stairs ugh the main reception room, into tho or and through the small doov into the kitchen, I'rom the kitchen he will pass through the west door into the stockade and upon tho scaffold It is the intention to have everything com- ploted early Thursday morning, and in order that thero may be no unfortunate accidents, the sheriff will test the apparatus some time Thursday. To do this the rope that is to bo placed around Neal's neck will be fastened t a sack containiug 200 pounds of sand. The bolt to the trap will be kicked looso and the bag of sand will be allowed to drop six_feet. It the rope can stand this test it will be declured of sufticient strength for the purpose for which it is in- tonded. Neal, who is billed to play the part in the engagement,” is bearing up well, and declaros thut he will not break down and make a fool of himself. He states that if he dies, ho will die game. The sheriff doubts this to some extent, and while the condomnced man shows no signs of weak- ening, it Is very cvident that he is ill at ecase. Until a few nights ago his sicop was peaceful and un- broken, but of late be has appeared more réstless and wakeful. It is the custom to give bim water at9 o'clock each night. This is at his hour for retivine. Until quite recently he would take his drink and at once o tosleep. Lost night aud the night before be paced his cell for nearly an hour after drinking, and when spoken to by tho death watch, seemed lost in thought. His appetito vemains very good and it is very seldom that he finds fault with the jmil fare. Whon Neal was first incarcerated ho de- clared that ho would nevor died at the end of rope, and on this account the sheriff has takon extra precaution to allow nothing to pass into bis cell unless it has been thoroughly inspected by tha jailor or some one of his as sistants, Few peoplo know how Neal is pass- ing bis last hours cn earth, Ho is busy most of the time. After taking his breakfast, which 15 served shortly after S o'clock, he devotes a couple of hours to reading books d papers, which are sent iu by the sters of Charity, and then he gets down bis brushes and paints and until noon besmears water colors and oil paiuts over paper and cau Noul's readings do not cover a very wide range, as he devotes his hours to devouring the contents of religious books and dmly papers. He frequently calls for the city papers, but they have been withheld from him' for soveral weexs, consequently he is somewhat ignorany of the doings of the outside world. As an artist thero aro some who pronounce Neal a success, but the general public thinks otherwise. His latest effort, representing a voluptuous, white-faced woman sitting i a nammock, 'is now on exbibition In a down-town art storo, where it attracts considerable comment.’ Just now the man 1s ongaged in_pamting a cupid lying inu conch shell, and to an inquiry by the sheriff as to when it would be completed, Neal ro- plied: *“It now looks as thougn I would have to finish it as soon as Friday morning.” There are any number oi people who are anxious to witness Neal's departure, and fully 8,000 have applied for admission to be present next Friday. Among those who have sent in applications are all tho members of the Joues family, together with their numerous relatives and acquaintances. Most of these peonie will be doomod to dis- appointmentas only the court, officers, the jurors who sat upon the case, a couple of physicians, a couple of clergymen, press representatives and some invited sheriffs will bo allowed to witness the sceno. M order that perfect order may be presecved tho sherifft will appoint tweive deputies who will patrol tho grounds during the execution, There are many things that lead Sheriff Boyd to wfer that the wovernor will not_interfere and commuto Neal's sentence to life impris onment. When he was here last week he examined the rope and made many inquiries as to its strength and the amount of strain that 1t was capable of standing. Ho ulso visited the ground where the gallows 13 to be erectod and offered some suggestious 5 10 its exact location. He cautioned the shoriff about having overything made strong, that an accident might not occur, saying that in executing criminals his idea was to have everything in shape so that the vietim would not be tortured. - The governor also inquired what clorgymen would be present d even usked as to the tinal disposition of the remains. e e For Headache Use Horsford’s Acid Phosphate.

LONG PANT SUITS, GCONTINENTAL.: IN OMAHA'S FAVOR. Changes Which the Grain Exchange Proposes to Make. The grain men of the city express them- selves as well pleased with the progress of the Omaha grain market, but they contom- plate some action that will tend to develop tho market still more rapidly. Heretofore the bids on the Omanha board have been mado on the basis of Mississippi river points, and it has been objected that this plau does mot centralizo the business at Omaba. The grain committeo of the board will bo called together in a day or two to consider. the subject. In the mean- timo calls on tho board will bo basea on both Omaba and Mississippi river points. I the calis are to be based on Omaha, thus contralizing the business at this point, it will bo uecessary for the railroads to malke some concession which will allow of grain being billed to Omaha with the privilege of through rates to the Mississippi river points. Secrotary Nason of the board says that tho vailroads will mako this concession. -~ Everybody Knows that at this season the blood is filled with i ies, the accumulation of months of nfinement in poorly ventilated store: d tenements.

Tus, of course, will notbe due to the increase of tonnage, but to the fact that all other outlots to the seaboard seem to be in greater favor than Chicago. Whilo the east- bound shipments of grain seom to be very large by way of St. Lowss, Duluth, New Or- leans and Galveston, the movement by way of Chicago is lighter than it has been for years at this seasor. The traffic officiuls on the lines entering Clicago from the wést are boginning to grumble and even to make throats. Theso companies have been extremely during the present year—ignoring tho cut rates that were known to have been adopted at times by some of their competitors, in the belief that suol practices would be’ discon- tinued as soon as the busy sesgon commenced. They now say forbearance has ceased L0 bo i virtue and that they cannot afford to stand by and lot other roads absorb tueir share of uio traftic, on which they have depended to retrieve the losses of the year, Complaints are made “that the Missouri Pacific 1s cutting grain rates from the Mis souri rivor, and that the Groat Northern and the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omai are employing unfair means to divert traftic to Duiuth; Itis even intimated that ouo or two of the Chicago lines have taken steps to meet this competition, and that in u few days they will bo engaged in & scramble for busi- ness. A Rock Island ofifcer said today the Chicago & Alton had undoubtedly cut the ratg from Kansas City to Chicago tomeet tho ratds of the Missouri Pacitic and Memphis line, but tho only evidence offered was a sud- den'increase in the Alton’s business and a corresponding falling off of that in other 1o The Alton people say that they have not reduced the rates as yet and that whon they do it will bo an open reduction.
