HOLDREGE TELLING WHAT HE KNOWS ‘l Unlon Depot and Viedaet Dealls Under Con- sideration—Where Did the Clothes of Work iIn Sight st The grand jury has made its first report to tho district court, but it has not, by any means, conclided its labors, nor is the afore- said grand jury ready to adjourn The mombers started in on tho South Thir- teenth strect grade, examined a few witnesses and then started after election frauds alleged to have taken place during the fall of 1500 That subject was prolific of resuits and one man even testified that the little matter of soventy or eighty saits of clothes was the consideration that induced certain voters to #xorciso thoir rights of franchise in a cer- tain direction Ihat matter was dropped and then thoy went on a still hunt to find irregularities in city matters, G. W. Holdroge was invited sion of the grand jury room. Mr. Holdrege, supposing that he was to be investigated upon the subject of Burlington affairs, was ready to auswer questions. That was not what was wanted of him, however, and ho was excusea with the Instructions to return to his ofice, secure all the papers in his possession, signed by ex- Councilman Moroarty and’ return at once. Mr. Holdroge oboyed, and a fow moments later returned with & bundlo of lettors and documents, whick wore luid beforoe the jurors for thelr iuspeetion, The caso under investigation refers to the new depot and the Tenth street viaduct. The inguiry is for tuo_purpose of learning from Mr. Holdrego just how far certain councilmen got into the deal. Indictments Kot to the seclu Some ed. At 3:20 0'clock vesterday afternoon Judge Davis of the criminal court was enjoying a fow moments of leisure in his private room iu the rear of the large court room when Sheriff Bennett appenrea and furnished the startling information _that the grand jury was rendy to report. Siipping into his judi- cial robes the court mounted the bench and ordered the juey brought into his presence, Clerk Moores was summoned and a moment later the eighteen jurors filed into the room 10 tako scats in tho ™ jury box. As the roll was called cach juror responded “here." “Have you anvihing to communicate to the court?" asked Judge Davis. “Wo have, your honor,”” answered Fore- man Anderson, and stepping forward he jlaced a bunch of 32 indictments in Judge Javis’ hands. The jndge looked them over, smiled and asked: “Gentlemen, have you compioted your labors “Not yot,” r »d Foreman Anderson. “We have a great many things yet that de mand our attention. “You may reure, court. The men filed out as they camo and at onco resumed the work of finding more indict meats. Clerk Moores asked for instructions regard- ing the keeping of the indictments. The court informed him that no cyo ‘othor than his own should rest upon any ouo of the pers. Warrants of arrest would av once issue aud tho partics would bo brought before the coart. Who the indicted individuals are keeps people guessing, but it1s known that ali of the saloonkeepers on the two-milo strip have been caught. It is also known that several other partios are in trouble, as there were only cighteen of the men who sold liquor without having first taken out licenses. then,” answered the Ryan & Walsh's Hospital Work I Litigation —District Court Doings. Once again litigation erowing out of the constwiction of the Douglas county hospital is being nfred in the courts. This time tno trouble is before Judge Irvine. Ryau & Walsh were tho original contrac- tors, and on account of the non-performance of certain portions of the contract,the county withheld some of the money. They brought suit against the county and won. The case was appealed, but in the meantime a settle ment was reachod by which they were to re- ceive $37,511.20 and call everything square. Beforo the judgment was paid, however, the Omana Slate and Rooling company, the Acme Iron and Wire w , Ruempivg & Balte, Honry Lohmaun, Caay & Gray, L. H.

Cornish filed liens and enjoined the county from paying any of the proceeds of tho judgment to Ryan & Walsh. Ryan & Walsh now ask the court to compel each defendant to appear and set forth tho amount of thelr claims, Judge Forguson is listoning to evidence 1 the case of August Benzon against John A. Creighton. Benzon avers that in 1857 he contracted to purchase 256 acres of Creigh- ton’s land in tho nortb part of the city. He wais to have paid $00 per acre and put up £1,000 of forfeit money. Creighton failed to )ass Lho 1t or to return the money,and now 3enzon sues for either the land or tho money. The suit brought Monduy by the Oszood Dredge company against the Awmerican Water Works company, to recover on a note of §2,836.02, in no wise effects the American ‘Water Works company of this city. The note was given by the Denver end of tho company, for material used at that point. Mr. J. H. Dumont of the wator works com - pany statos that in bis opiion the suit was brought in this county for no other purpose than to injure the tinancial standing of the Omaba end of the company.

Bruce, the Alaska corro spondo.t of Tie Bee, returaed two woeks ago from that Arctic region he brought with him a family of native Alaskans. The party consists of man, wife and child, and perhaps their dog ought to be included in the family, for hoe enjoys & big share of the general affection. This interosting group is now at the Kden Museein charge of a brother of Mr. Bruce. These Alaskans aro short of stature and have an Asiatic rather than an Indian physiognomy. The man is 45 years old, the woman 28 and the little girl 5 All are dressed in native costumes of fur, the father 1 reindeor and the mother in . robe of squirrel skin Joth have hoods for the head, leaving nott ing but the face exposed. With them nre many curious articles common to their iso. lated life, such as a harpoon of bono and leather thongs, a hunk of dried soa weed that is chewed in lieu of tobacco, a block of whale marrow that is used in_calking boats, & watorproof shirt of walvus skin, drawn over the fur suit when in a boat, bows and arrows and a variety of woearing apparel. “It is my brother’s inteation,’ said Mr. Bruce, “to tako tuis family to Washington and prosent them to President Harrison. They will be the first native Alaskans who over visited our national capital. In the moantime thoy are being exhibited at the museums to pay the expense of bringing thom hore, and of courso they are earning moro for themselyes than they could at home. They are bright. cheorful and ordinaril very docilo, but do not like to be crossed. “They speak only fifteon to twenty English words, but they apparently understand con- siderablo, for with the aid ot pantomime 1 et along with thom quito easily, Thoy aro imitativo aud observant, and I think are learning considerable, Our hotel in Omaha furnisties better fare than we had in St. Jo- seph. The Alaskans noticed it at the first meal and told me by pointing at the board and saying ‘better.” It was particularly sur prising to_find that they were exceediugly neat and clean 1 their personal habits, The, have very littlo idea of time aud it requires a great deal of urging to get tnem ready for their daily exhibitions. *“Che father and mother have good health, but the little one was ill at St. Josoph.

My brother has agreed to have them back 10 Alaska by Ma; CONGRESS At Last Takes Action, A bill has been introduced at Washington requiring all baking powders containing alum and ammonia to bo so labeled. This is astep in the rigkt girection, and has been long foreshadowed by the action of the stute legislatures, boards of health, food commis sioners, etc., 1n this matter. The bill affords neeaed protection to the public, for the evi donce as to the injurious effects of alum and ammonia is very heavy: but 1t will never theless be fought bitterly by the manufact- urers whom it effects wlio are accustomed to sell their goods as pure Cream of Tartar,” “absolutely pure,” ete. The bill is something needed. (f a_ maker uses a drug in his powder, the name of which ho does not want to bave printed on his label, it is prima facie evidence that there is something wrong. We hope the subject will be vigorously prosecured all over the country, not only as recards vaking powder, but also all other food adulterations. This bill may incidentiy benefiv the makers of pure articles, but 1f it should, this is only an additional point in its favor. o THE NATIONAL PAGEANT. nration The Work of Already Very The arrival in Omaha of Mrs. Cora Scott Pond Pope brings to notice the ‘‘National Pageant” which is to bs presented at the Grand opera house February 20 and 27. As is well known, this entertainment is to be given for the benofit of the Womnn's Chris- tian association, than which this city has no more onnobling euterprise: but everybody does not know what an elavorate perform ance it is to be. Sufcient has been learned since Mrs, Pope’s arrival to warrant the pre diction that it will be tho best and most in- teresting to which local talent has ever con tributed; that has been the verdict in other and largor cities whero the pageant has beon given and which are now anxious to secure return dates. Mo, P, L. Perino, presidentof the associa tion, with Mrs. George Tilden, Mrs. H. Lud ington, Mrs. Cadet Taylor, Mrs, F, L. Hal- ler, Miss Ella Bracker, aided by muny otbers interested in the womau’s association, Lave al ready spent considerable time in securing participants ana arrauging the preliminary work. Thoy have been especially successful and the listof those who will take part in- cludes many of Omaha’s most prominont and best knowil people. Rehearsals ave in prog- ress and will bo idustriously and vigorously prosecuted till the date of the performunce Omaha people never do auything by halve: and the announcement of tho auspices undor which this entertainment is to ba given together with the tact that Mvs, Popo will personally supervise it makes it sufiicient guaranteo of its succoss, Thoro are boxes and bundies enough to load a car filled with costumes forthe pa ant. Al theso accessories have been pro- vided by Mrs, Pope at large expense, aud furnish an claborate attention to detail which could not be otherwise secured. The eatertalument has the local advantage of being new and novelin this city, unlike anything ever seen heve before, Mrs. Pope th ighly understanas the business and en- ters upon the work here with a zeal and cu- which is an earnest of suxcess. Her efforts will be seconded by three or four hun- aved Omaba citizens and what s0 many un dertake is sure to be accomplished, This is to testify that I bave tested the medical properties of Dr. J.

In fact it is doubtful if his mother or anybody else will ever know. The interesting and vory necessary ovent in the life of the aforementioned infant hap- dencd 1n this way: On board the Rock Islnod passenger train which rolled into the union depot Monaay evening thero was a Russian family. The husband and father gavo the name of Jacob Eckhart. He was accompanied by a wife and five chil- dren, the youngest of whom lay on tho seat beside the'mother wrapped in a shawl, for it had never undergone that interesting experi ence of having its clothes put on. Mrs. [k hart looked pale, wonk and distressed as she sat supping a cup of coffee. By the signifi cant glances and the whisperod couver sation among the other passcngors abroad the car it w soon learned that thero was somothing of especial interest connected with tho poor Itussian family and particalar interest scemed to be contered in the woman and the infant wrapped in a shawl by her siae, The cause of this unusual interest was casily explained. Mrs. Eckhart had given birth to an infant whilo the long train came across the bridgo from Council Bluffs, She did not even inform her husband of tho seri ous condition of affairs but rotired to the toilet room as the train left Council Bluffs and as the train pulled up at the umon depot sho omerged with her offspring, a healthy looking boy in her arms wrapped mashawl. Her busband appeared to bo more confused over tho matter than she was and about all he could do was to get the poor woman a cup of coffee, “The family spoke German and a fow imper- fect words in Euelish, Mr. Eckbart said be could stop in Omaha. He had no money and no friends here. They wanted to push on to Friend, Neb., whero thoy had acquaintances awaiting them. Tho infant appeared to be all right and in broken English and German the mother thanked thosc who offerad assist- ance and said sho would rather continue the journey and reach their destination as soon as possible. The family went on to F'riend. e ippe Ruging in Alabama. “La grippe 1s raging here and 1 find Chamberiain’s cough_remedy to be a certain cure for 1t,” says W. G. Johns of Trim- ble, Cullman company, Ala. Mr. Johns ordered a supply of the remedy to be shipped by expross as quickly as possible. Ihere is 10 question but this remedy is of great value m tho treatment of tho grip especially on account of its counteracting auy tendency of the discase toward pooumonia, It is alko a prompt and cortain cure for the cough which usually follows an attack of grip. 25 aud 50 cent bottles for sule by druggists. — Be sure to try the Quail rolled oats and take no othe TOM TI'S TROUBLES.

It is claimed that the celebration broke up in & row about 30'clock vesterday morning. It seems that a cortain Chinese doctor guve a sort of banquet to bis countrymen at a room near the corner of Twellth and Harney stroets. Everything went along pleasantly until just vefore 3o'clock in the morning.when Tom "Ti rushed into the police station in a greatly excited condition, avd with a livid mark on the left side of his face. Tom wanted the whole outfit of morry makers arrested becouse they bad maltreated him.

They are compelied to submit to any switeh ing rogulations which the Union Pacific may make, The Northwestorn, which has a_favorable traffic arrangement with the Union Pacific, has already adopted theaiternative.
