Fortune Smilled and Thon Frowned on & Chicagonn, James C. Leonard hails from Chicago, but vhat did not provent his learning something after he got to Omaha. He arrived yester- day and inscribed his autograph on the register at the Paxton, after which he got along very well until he drifted mto Oerter's gambling house on Douglas street, where he became speculative, and almost before he knew it had won $123 at the faro table. Not satisfied to stop at that he tried his hand at stud poker. The venture was dis- astrous, for when he Tose from the table he was $425 loser and dead broke. He then did what was the mcst natural thing in the world under the circumstances—repented of his folly and quit gambling. . Yesterday morning his wife arrived, but whether it was due to that or somo other reason can not be told, for Leonard went to the police station and swore out a warrant for the proprietors of the place, charging them with gambling and keeping 4 gambling house. He did not sign his own name, bug hooked on to the compliint the autograph of a mysterious individual named Howard and let it go at that. That the unlucky Chicagoan did not prose- cute because of a sudden conviction of the immorality and illegality of the act of the gamblers was shown by the fact that he first visited the gambling house and demanded his money back, threatening to have the gamblers arrested unless they promptly shelled out. They refused to shell, henco the arrest. And now Mr. “‘Howara" is confronted with the unploas- ant fact that he has himself yiolated the gam- bling law, and is guilty on oneof the charges that he has brought against the men who are now eating off his money. He has about concluded that it would have been choaper to have stayed at home and lived on World's fair sandwiches, even at Midway plaisance rates. e Weather Making Under Diffioulties, Captain Hunt of the weather bureau is not only emergetic and practical, but he always tries to be right up to the timos. In fixing up the new headquarters for the weather office in the top story of the McCague building he has kit upon a neat plan of furnishing light for the instrument box which has to be visited dur- ind the night by the obscrver In order to keep a correct record of the temperature and the barometrio pressure. Herotofore the observer has been obliged to Shrryn lantern out on the roof in taking the readings of the instruments, but the box is now provideds with an incandescent light, which will be a great convenience. In locating the weather vane Captain Hunt found some difficulty to get at the exact meridian owing to the presence of so much iron on_top of the building. The compass was badiy queered by the metal. 1t was found necessary to station a civil engineer at the First Presbyterian chu two blocks west of the McCague building, and with the assistance of a gompas2 located there the weather vane on top of the McCague bullding was turned to and clamped on vhe truc east and west line, Sohool Census for 1891 and 1893, Omaua, July 12.—~To the Editor of Tar Bee: In your editorial in your issue of the 10th, regarding the inconsistencies of the school census, in speaking particutarly of the Eighth ward, you say, “It is highly probable that the figures for 1801 and 1802 run too low.” Permit me to say that the census of the years named was oorrect: Each ruldfincu was visited, without a single failure. ore than 100 dwellings were empty and they must have been crowded full of children since the census of 1502 to bring the figures given for 1593, Feeling that your remarks are somewhat ofa reflection on my work in the two years mentioned, will you please publish™ this statement.

Wilson has incurred the wrath of the powers that be, and he will be called into court to explain why he bhas openly Jfractured a city ordi- nance. The trouble arises from the construction of permanent sidewalks on Chicago street, be- tween Sixteenth and Seventeenth. The ex- mspector changed the walk in front of his premises without the sanction of the city ongincer, which is a direct violgtion of ex- iating ordinances, and Mr. Rosowater prom- ises thav he will be prosecuted unless he complies with the law. Mr. Wilson is durate and will tight the case, so he says.

SHE WANTED AN INTEREST IN HIS FARM Refased to Live with Him Longer Unl the Property Was Placed in Her Name—How the Prisoner Ap- peared in Jall Coromnus, July 13.—[Special to Tmn Brr.]—When brought to jail here yester- day, Debany said: “The trouble between mysolf and my wife was that she was trying for a long time to get me to deed my farm to her and T would not do it, 80 she loft mo four or five times and stayod away from mo threo or four weeks at & time. I went after hor this last time and asked her if_she would go homo with me and she said: ‘Will you ‘deed the farm to e if 1 go mit you? I said ‘No,’ and then I asked her again aud again if she would go home with me and she sald ‘No! No! No!' and then I shot her.” Whilo Debany was narrating this cause for his horrible crime, he worked himself into a frenzy and gesticulated wildly, and M th elimax of his partially incoheront story he illustrated his crime by stepping up 1o the bars of the Jail, thro'ving his hand behind his back and with a_spasmodic jerk levoling np imaginary pistol, while his oyoa gleamed with the firo of a devil. He denied emphatically being intoxicatod on the occa- sion cf the commission of the crime, alleging that he was vorfectly sober, but that ho couldn’t stand having his wifo's rolatives and neighbors urging his wife on to trying to make him deed Away his farm to her. HALL COUNTY'S FINANCES, Report of an Expert Accountant ongthe Situntion. GRAND TsLAND, July 13.—[Special Telegram to Trr Bee.]—-Expert Accountant Fawlie, who was engaged by the County Board of Supervisors to examine into the records of the county for the past ten years, made a report today to the board on two terms of ex-Treasurer Hooper, from 1884 to 1888, He reports that there is a shortage of §1,719.41 In the state and county funds. There is an additional shortage in the amount of fees turned over, though the exact amount of this will depend greatly upon the legal con- struction of an action of the county board during that term. Hooper, in the last year of his term, applied for additional clerk hire and the board granted his request. By he was allowed $2,700 for deputy and If the action of the board perm use of mmm_;' over 2,700 for fees in that year there will not be so much of a shortage. Hooper's reputation for houesty has never been questioned and but few, if any, believe the shortage to be fraudulent. Butler County Teachers.

Taking Photographs, Magnetizing Iron and Playlng Other Pranks. The Etruscans of old believed in threa kinds of lightning—one incapable of doing auy injury, another moro mis- chievous in its character, and conse- quently only to be issued with tho con- sent of & quorum of twelve gods, and a third carrying mischief in its train, and for which a regular decree was required frome* the highest divinities in the Etruscan skies. Curiously enough, modern scientists, following the lead taken by Arago, have also decreed that the varleties of lightning are threefold. The first comprehends that in which the discharge appears like a long luminous line bent into angles and zig- zags, and varying in complexion from white to blue, purple or red. This kind is known as forked lightning, because it sometimes divides in two or more branches before reaching the earth. The second differs from the first in the range of surface over which ‘the flash is dif- fused. From this circumstance the dis- charge is designated sheet lightning. The third class differs so widely from the more ordinary manifestations that many meteorologists huve denied their right to be treated as legitimate light- nings. They neither assume the form of long lines on the one hand nor sheets of flame on the other, but exhibit them- selves as balls or globular lumps of fire. A very singular story is told concern- ing the vagaries of one mass of globe lightning. A tailor in the Rue St. Jaques, in the neighborhood of the Val de Grace, was getting his dinner one day during athunder storm, when he heard a loud clap, and soon the chimney- board fell down, and a globe of fire as big as @ child’s head came out quietly and moved slowly about the room ata small height above the floor. The spectator, in conversation afterward with M. Rabbinet, of the Academie des iences, said it looked like a good sized kitten rolied up into a ball and moving without showing i?.s}mw:(. It was bright and shining, yet he felt no sensation of heat. The globe came near his feet, but, by moving them aside, he avoided the contact. After trying . several excursions in difforent directions it rose vertically to the height of his head— which he threw back to prevent it touching him—steered toward a hole in the chimney above the mantelpiece, and made its way into the flue, Shortly afterward—"when I uuppoued it had had time to reach the top,” the tailor said—there was a terrible explo- sion, which destroyed the upper part of* the chimney, and threw the fragments onto the roofs of some adjoining build- ings, which they broke through.” Inthe forest of Nemours a tree was once struck. Two pieces were rent from its trunk. The smaller was tossed to a dis- tance of fifty feet, and the larger, which “eighteen men could not move, to a dis- tance of twenty feet or so in an opposite track. In 1838 the topgallant mast of H. M. S. Rodney was hit by a flash, and literally cut up into chips, the sea being strewn with the fragments, as if the car- ters had been sweeping their shav- gs overboard. Shortly before the top- masts of H. M. S, Hyacinthe had suf- feced in a similar manner, and when the Thetis undorwent a like visitation in Rio harbor Captain Fitzroy described the foretopmast as ‘‘a mere collection of ln%wllnlerl, almost like reeds.” ese are & fow of the examples of the mechanical effects of lightning. It works chemically as well It has the power of developing a peculiar odor, which has been va¥léusly compared to that of phosphorusd|® nitrous gas, and most frequently ‘:burning sulphur. Wafen mentions a storm on the Isthmus of Darien which diffused such a sulphur- ous stench through the atmosphere that he and his marauding companions could scarcely breatho, particularly when they plunged into the wood. The magnetic effects produced are. ‘often very curious. A chest containing s large assortment of knives, forks and other cutlery was, not many years ago.struck in the house of a Wn{efiehl tradesman, and magnet- fsm f{mparted to the whole of the artioles. Arago, in his ‘‘Moteorological Iissays,” speaks of a shoemaker in Swadia whose tools were thus treated, to his indeseribable annoyance. ‘‘He had to be constantly freeing his ham- mer, pincers and knife from his nails, needles and awls, which are constantly getting caught by them as they lay to- gother on the benoh.” The same author- ty know of a Gonoese ship which was wrecked near Algiers in consequence of some pranks played by lightning among the compasses, the captain innocently supposing that he was sailing toward the north, when, as a matter of fact, he was steering due south. Subterranean thunders have occa- sionally been heard proparatory to an aerial eruption. The sea has “cast up volumes of water, as if volcanoes were exploding below. The ground has burst open, and floods of water have gushed forth from the sides of hills or from fis- sures in the rocks. Taking another class of effects, res have been per- formed by lightning—gouty men have been enabled to walk freely, epileptic ersons have been hoaled, amaurosis has been removed, and rheumatism dispelled by a flash. Butone dare not look too closely into the subject of medical elec- tricity nor venture to recommend any one to tempt lightning in the hope of ex- periencing its curative effects. —— Jedge Waxem's Proverbs.

New York Sun: “Did you hear about Andy?" asked one reminiscent westernor of another. *‘No? Weli, Andy made a strike of 65,000 at Cripple Creek. As soon as he got the money in his hands he went down to Denver nnd blew it in. Rum, cards and girld: You know how it is. The morning that he woke up sober and found all his money gone he set out to punish himself by walking to Cripple Creek. He wouldn’t borrow a cent. A fellow who was teaming for me overtook him and offered him 4 lift, but he wouldn’t get in, and: he plugged along, muttering: to himself, ‘Walk, — - yer, walk. Blow in yer dust, will yer?

Light out and walk you durned jackass.” And he did.” L Tipplug Servants, Katharine Bates, who wrote “A®Year in the Great Republic,” thinks that the idea of “‘tipping” servants in America with gloves instead of money 18 a very good scheme. She writes toa London editor: “I have such a sincere regard and admiration for America and the Americans that I hope to visit the coun- try again before I die, and shall be tempted to take a well stocked-glove box with me, according to your corre- spondent’s advice. May I make one last sufzestion to those going to Chicago this summer?

Cases of death from dvinking fce water when one is overheated have been reported. Great care should be taken in regard to this matter says the New York Ledger. The craving for cold water when the heat is great and a person has been exorting himself is sometimes absolutely irresistible. But the craving should be but sparingly in- dulged. In fact, it would be hetter at such times not to drink very cold water atall. Water of only moderate cool- ness would be a great deal better.

DESPONDENCY OVER FINANCIAL MATTERS Evidently a Gentleman of Rank In Brazil— He Sold Jewelry In Amerion—Filled A Pauper’s Grave—Took n Dose of Morphine. A man supposed to be Dom C. D. Casa of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, South America, com- mitted suicide in the Millard hotel some time Tuesday evening. His body was dis- covered just before midnight. It is said that the body and effects were sent to the morgue at once and the matter kept quiet until morning. On the corner of the table in the room where Casa was found was anote which contained the following unsigned statement : “To tho Coroner: No inquest is neces- sary, I took morphine. “f have no relatives or friends in this country to notify of my demise. 1 beg for- giveness of all I may have wronged, and heartily 1 forgive those who have injured me. “I bog that you dispose of me as quickly as possible. ““May God have pity on me and save my soul. Amen.” The above was written on both sides of a small card and the writing denoted a scholar. The card was enclosed in a small white en- velope, on the back of which was: Mansfield, Memphis, Tenn.” A card case containing & gold and silken emblom of re- ligious indulgence, or probation, dated 1877 was enclosed in a small paper on which w: writter Sr. Geraldlne. Oollege de 1 Immanelle Concepelon, 120 Rua Botatogo, Rlo de Janciro, Brazil, 8. A voice of personal effocts which had been do- posited with the “G.S. D.Co.” but the name of the city whoers tho goods are located does not appear on the invoice. The goods aro valued at $008. Hoalso had a captain’s check, showinga first-class pas sago from China to this country. Waited for a Remittance. The man came hero from Chicago on July 7. He said he had been visiting the World’s fair and would stop in Omaha to await a remittance from friends. Tho man has been a guest at the Millard since coming to Omaha, but never spoke of his domestic a: fairs or relatives. He is between 50 and 56 years of age and from some remarks he made ‘a day or two ago, it is thought that heis a Jjewelry salesman for some foveign concern. Ho was always well dressed here and was evidently a gentleman of some rank in his own country. He did not get the remit- tances he expected and for a few days has been morose and despondent. This is prob- ably the cause of the man's desperate deed, After learning the particulars of the man's death Coroner Maul directed that the re- mains be interred in Forest Lawn cemetery in a pauper’s lot. There isno way of knowing where the man belonged or what is his true name, as he destroyed all papers of recognition. He probably overlooked the marking on his linen. The coroner has telegraphed to tho safety deposit companies in San Francisco, asking if they have any such articles as described in the invoice and if they know anything about the man. He hasalso telegraphed the Brazilian commissioner at the World's fair asking if he knows Casa. No replies have yet been received, Stranger to Poverty. From conversation with people who have met Casa since arrival in Omaha, it would seem that the man had traveled extensively and met many forelgners of prominence. He bhas evidently scen better days and was unused to poverty. The articles mentioned in the safety de- posit invoice are all expensive and he could have raised considerable monoy on them had he so desired. Nothing of value was found in his effects and the remains will rest in an unmarked grave in the potter's fleld unless fricnds get trace of him and learn of his deatn. Piles of people have piles, but De Witt's Witch Hazel Salve will cure them. e e Mr. Kaley's Statoment. County Attorney Kaley has shied his castor into the ring and declares that in- stead of shirking and slighting the duties of the oftice, he has administerea the affairs in pood shape and has madea record that outshines any that was ever made by any of his predecessors. As proof of this he points to the court records, claiming that during the May term of court 1 in the criminal division there were sixty-nine convictions, as against thirty-eight in 1892, when Mr. Mahoney had cha rge of the erimiaal business. Mr, Kaley denies that Judge Keysor has ever called him upon the carpet and read him lectures, though hesays that ho and the court have differed upon some important facts whi have entered 1nto the urial of jome of the criminal causes. Regarding his troubles with the county commissioners, the attorney says that with ono exception the members have always accented his opinions as good law. The case was the one against the National Bank Commerce. In that matter, Mr. Kales states that he advised the board ; that his advice was rejected, but that in the end the courts held as he had predicted that they would. In his open letter the county attorney de- clares that the commissioners have been giving him the worst of the deal,and in sup- port of tha charge he shows that they fur- nished Mr. Mahouney anofiice, the services of @ stenographer, telephone and other office equipments. In his case he avers that all that the members of the board have done for him has been to turn over a box of pens, few lead pencils and a gross of gum strings. e Warlare on Tagless Curs.

Fearful Death Rat This Month, Infants Die For Better Food. in Thousands of Homes, Improper Diet Should be Avoided. Lactated Food the Preventive of Cholera Infantum. The Safest and Best for Little Ones. PRE-EMINENTLY THE MOST NOURISH- ING AND NATURAL. Thousands of homes are now thought- ful and anxious for the safety of the little ones during the hot weather. No one thing is so essential to thelir health and safety asa wise choice of food. Tn tho four summer weoks ending July 17. last year, the mortality of in- fants under ‘a year old in this state amounted to 482 per cent; under two years 60 per cent; under 5 years 64 per cent of the total mortality. The mor- tality of bables under u year was about equal to the total average mortality for the whole year of all diseases under 10 years. The cold, cruel, statistical proofs' which might be accumulated indefinitely, show only what physicians know too well, that improper diet in the sum- mer destroys baby life in uncomon numbers. And they prove, also that it is mainly the infants who suffer from th@eflects of the season,on this account. The epidemic of bowel aflections of children frequently corresponds with the rise in temperature, but the causes always lie in unsuitable diet. An absolutely pure and reliable in. fant food has thercfore been eagerly, sought for years as a substitute for pure mother's milk. Lactated food soived tho problem completely. It stands today pre-emi- nent above all' others. Infants fed upon it suffer less, and fewer die, it is now well known, than those fed upon any- thing else. It is used in the big chari- table institutions for children. It has saved the lives of thousands of infan! during the hot, dangerous months of summer. 1t is indorsod by the best physicians, by nurses, and by happy,grateful moth- ers in every town and village in the land, Sugar of milk, the basis of mother’s milk, is the basis of lactated food. With it is combined pure barley malt, the finest wheat gluten, and the nutritious element of tho oat. It is thoroughly cooked by high steam heat, and a pre- digested, nutritious food is made that fulfills every requicement of the grow- ing child. It is by [ar the safest food a child can eat in the summer. Itisa true preventive of cholera infantum, No bome where there is an infunt can afford to be without it, Lactated food saves babies’ lives. 5 SUMMER DISEASES.
