Had a Bully Time, A number of well known Council Bluffs men took advantage of the beautiful weather last Sunday to make a visit to the School for the Deaf, where they were shown about the gounds by the steward with all the con- scious pride which tho attaches of the institution so justly have in the beautifully kept surroundings of the instituti Among other things that we > displayed to the interested gaze of the visitors was a fine Holstein bull, who Luid up with a bad case of sickness. He was so meek and docile to look upon that one by ono the wistors ventured in- side the enclosure and became som what more familiar with the than they would had he been enjoyiug his usual state of health. Suddenly the bull came to the conclusion that he as ill as he thought he was. ‘I'he roj which had tied him to the ground broke under his merease m spirits, and he leg ou his feot and made a rush 'at one of was_ hardly his s a well koown abstractor, who sought safety in vrecipitate and indis- criminate flight, Just us he cleared the fenee at a single bound he looked around and saw that the bull had transferred his atten- tions to one of his companions, an attorney whose “vidth and wisdom” are olike objects of envy toan good many of his rivals at the Pottawattamie county bar. But all his legal learming: availed him noth- ing m a contest with a bull that didn't know the difference between a habeas corpus and a procedendo, and his width was an abso- lute hindrance to his welfare. 1n making the race he was not careful enough to sec where he was going, and jumped head first into the slop trough. He émerged a moment later with all the evidences of his unhacmp experience clingiug 0 him, awong thby being & badly sprained wrist.

Tungate took charge of the Union Stock Yards railroad yards last night at 5:45 o'clock, bringing with him three new switchmen, J. MeMonagle and J. M, Sullivan, switch- men employed on the old force, were di charged before Mr. Tungate took charg They were discharged for the alleged cause of not reporting on time for duty or sending any word %o the head yardmaster. All the other switchmen went to worlk, thus knock- ing out the report that none of them would work under Mr. Tungate, Mr. Sullivun is financial secretary of the switchmen's union, and says that he will lay his discharge before the union for invest| tion. His statement is that he was “‘fired" for being five minutes late. All sorts of rumors were afloat early in the evening. The police had been told that a gang of Omaha switchmen were coming down and that the old gang would walk out during the night. A man who is pretty well onto the situ- ation said to a reporter for Tur Bre: “There will be no trouble whatever. Mr. Tungate has taken charge of the night yard work. He will not cut wages or discharge any man who attends to his work. Some of the old men talked of walking out at tirst, but after due consideration have concluded not to do s0. They are paid the full scale of prices here and do not have to work any harder than they do in other yards. Some of them have families and theie homes only partly paid for. [f they should go on a strike they might lose what money they have worked hard to save and be thrown out of work for months. They have taken a sensible view of the matter andare golng to go ahead with their work."” In order to take advantage of any distur- bance that might occur on account of the change in the yards Mayor Walker at7 o'clock swore in the following men i policemen S.

No disturbance whatever was reported. Chlef Beckett Wounded, An unfortunate accident occurred last evening in the police court room just after Mayor Walker had sworu in thirtéen special policemen to look after any difficulty which micht arise over the ‘change made in the night yardmastership in the stock yards. I'he room v well flled with men who had just pinned their neaw stars on them and the vor had just stepped from the platform when there was a report that made every- body in that court room jump for a sccond It was only a 44-caliber, but it sounded like the gun of u bLattleship. Ina ond Chief Beckett said, “My ‘Goll! boys, I'm shot.” The blood began streaming down his rignt leg until his shoe 'was filled with his own blood. The ball entered justabove the right aukie and | thtough the leg and ous into the floor without breakmg a bone, Afterstriking the flsor the ball glanced off again and went int the side wall. It was John Mullen’s gun that did the work, Mullen w sitting in a chair and the chief was sitting on the end of a table. Mullen ‘arose and stepped in front of the chief and his gun fell to the floor, but ex- ploded as it fell. . It must have been foreed out «f his pocket by the position he was sit- tingin. Multen says he does not know hov the gun got out of his pocket or what set it oft. "It was an accident. The affair drew out a large crowd of people. Dr. Ernhout wassent for and soon gave out the cheerful information that no hones were broken. He then bandaged the log nicely and the chief was taken to his home on Upper N street. It being only a fiesh wound the chief will not be laid up long if nothing unusual happens. Chief Beckett is a man with a_great deal of nerve. He was perfectly cool headed while the wound was being dressed and talked with the mayor and the ofticers as cheerfully as thouch nothing unusual had happened. = He bled freely and was made very weak from the loss of blood Saved by » Scream, G. L. Sweency, the confectionery man on N street, near Twenty-sixth, had _an exper- ience with a burelar last night which made his hair stand on end. Mr. Sweeney had locked up his store and started up stairs, where he lives with his family. On the stair he felt a man grappling to get hold of his arms, and he put more motion into his body than he has doue before for many a day. The man fo towed on and made a desporate. effort to get hoid of Sweeney’s pocketbook. They were still fighting at the head of tne stairway when Mrs. Sweeney rushed out of her bed- room and began screamiong. The thief then concluded it was time to go_and, ascending the stairway, he escaped through a back window, Mr. Sweenoy had sold a team of horses during the day and the thief no doubt thought he had the money he received for it with him, All the cash Mr, Sweeney had on him was the receipts of the day in his store. Ofticer Thomas was called in and took a de scription_of the burglar, but he is still at lurge. The thue had secreted himself in the store before Mr. Sweeney locked up. A Runuway Acecident, M. F. Sexton was seriously injured in a runaway accident yesterday morning. Sexton drives the delivery wagon for D. Gainey's grocery store. While passing out Twenty-fourth street the horses became frightened and started torun. Sexton at- tempted to turn them around, then the wagon was overturned and Sexton was dashed headforemost to the pavement. His head and body wero badly bruised. lung on to the lines and was dragged for a block, when ho let loose of tho lines. Tho team went on'for several blocks and smashed the wagonnto kindling wood.

Burglurs Agab The gang of burglyes that has been doing @ thrifty business in Bouth Omaha for some time, took & rest Tuesday night. They made oue effort, however, and were no doubt fright- ened away. The rear door to Welsh & M Donough's saloon shows plainty the marks of the burglars, With a sharp kife they started to cutout one of the panels of the door, but here the work was stopped, caused, no doubt, by the upproach of a policewan or watchman, Eximined by Expert At a special meeting of the scho)l board last night the books of the board were turned over to Huines Bros.,, expert book- keepers, to be checked up from the time the school district was organized in 1855, ‘The board will meet again ou the evening of the 25th to open bids on the repaiving of tue Fourth ward school house and to open the bids on desks for the new building Sewer Caved in.

This is «the third time a fire alarm has been sent in from this building nside of a month. It was about 3 o'clock when Mra, Pierce, who occupies rooms on the third floor, dis- covered that the southwest corner of the west wall was on fire and sent in the alarm ho firemen were prompt in arriving and on had the flames uader control, but in order to do 8o the building was flooded with water from the third story down. Mrs, Pierce rents furnished and unfurn- ished rooms on the second and_third floors. All the carpets and much of the furniture were damaged by water. As soon as the crowd arrived, people began carrying the 2oods out and nore or less stuff was smashed up in reckless handling during the excite- ment. Mrs. Pierce carries #8500 insurance on her household goods, which is suffcient to cover all of her loss J. 8. Reod rented unfurnished rooms on the second floor, The damage to his goods will be quite a little and he has no insurance, Mr. Ticknor, the restaurant man, who has been flooded out a half dozen times within the last six weeks, loses hoavily again, with no insurance whatever. The ham Printiag company will be the heaviest loser. It estimates that the stock and machinery is damaged $1,500 There is no insurance on the stock, but the amage to tho machinery is fully covered. he carpets on one floor of the Delmonico hotel were damaged considerably by water. "The origin of the fire is a mystery. The fire ‘began burniug on the west sido of the wall on a level with the roof of the adjoin- ing building, There is o brick chimuey on both sides of the spot where the fire started, but there had been no five in cither chimney for hours, One theory is that sparks ‘set firo to a bunch of rags and rub- bish that might have accumulated on the roof and another is that it was causcd by spontaneous combustion, the sotting fire to the pitch in the boards on tho side of the wall. Auother theory is that it was the work of an’ incendiary. But little damage was done to the building. The workmen in Brigham's printing _office thought they smelled something like old rags burning about 10 o'clock in the morning, but after making an investigation found nothing, and thought no more of the matter until after the fire alarm was sent in Magic Clty Gossip A.

Chica_o Post. “Only a girl,” growled Noah Par house, turning contemptuously away when Miss Deborah Duryea brought the tiny morsel of humanity, w ped up in a faded flannel shawl, to show to him as he sat before the big wood fire in the farmhouse kitchen. Why couldn't it ha' been a boy?” “Bring her to me,"” said M hous k, tremulous voice from among the pillows. **My little girl! my own daughter! Whatdid he say, Debby? Was he pleased?” “Well—no—I can't say ho was,” says Deborah, rubbing her nose. And Mrs. Parkhouse, whose gentle soul had naught of aflinity to the five noisy boys and their gruff, material- minded father, laid her check against the little baby girl's and silently gave thanks. “For,” thought the mother, “sho will be all my own Dorothy Parkhouse grew up, as it were, in the shadow. It was true that her mother loved her with a silent idol- atrous sort of devotion, but with the loud-voiced father and the five riotous boys she was_evidently *onc too many."” SLf it wasn't for mother,"thought Dor othy , curling up the littie chill fect that the farmer had decided “there wasn't no use in buyin’ new shoes for as long as the old "uns hung together,” *I shouldn’ want to live.” The next year—Dora’s eleventh sum- mer—an artist came out into the rural wildernesses sketching “studies™ for his winter's work and boarded for a few weeks at Farmer Parkhouse’s. Dora watched him as Aladdin of old might have watched the marvelous productions of the magician. 1 believe I could do that,” said Dora, with a voice that fluttered with her fluttering breath. *“Mr. Ryner, I have saved 6 pennies; would you be good enough to buy me a pencil like yours when you go” down to the villuge to- morrow?” Mr. Ryner looked around with a good- humored smile. *Pake one of s.

Dora worked on in silence by his side, s0 rapt and absorbed in her oceupation that she never noticed when he glanced over her shoulder, “aith! not so bad,” said he. the first you have done?” Yes, sir, the very first.” Mr. Ryner said 1o more, but he gave Dora a lesson every day after that until she had learned to handle her pencil with no mean degree of skill. Dorothy Parkhouse had been an ugly infant, a plain, unattractive child: buv it is not always possible to judge of the flower by the folded bud. She grew up rarely, «fu tily pretty, with brown hai blue-gray eyes and a face like a wild ros But Hezekiah Parkhouse did not no- tice her any more than he noticed the cat in the chimney corner, and Lo never was more astonished in his life than when George Elden, whose father owned the best sawmill in the county, asked him to use his influence with his sis- ter in his behalf, Hezekiah went home and communi- cated the great news to Dorothy, as an castern emissary might be supposed to tell the humblest slave of the harem that the sultan had cast a favorable eye upon her. “Well!” eried Farmer Parkhouse, as soon as he had sensed up the tidings, went on with his “Is this “Dorothy's fortin’s made now, surc enough.” “Not in that way,” said Dorothy, calnly. *1 shall not marey Mr, Eiden.” “You won't marry him!" roared Farmer Parkhouse. “But I say you shall if I have to drag you to the altar mysel(!” he suid, Dora said no more, but the next For every one who has blood trouble, no matter ot aana oF how long standing, provided o of the vital organs have been 80 far i alred a8 to render @ cure impossible.

It was in August when Dora Parkhouse “ran away” and it was a bleak October night when sho once more approached the cluster of butternut trees that sur- rounded the house. The light flickered faintly from the kitchen window as she walked briskly on, Suddenly she stopped; a figure stood before her at the fork of the roads: its garments fluttered in the wind and one hand was pressed to its brow. “Mother!” she eried aloud, “Dora! Dora! isit you? [ was going to look for you, child. They beat me, they turned me out of doors, but 1 knew I should find you." And she sank sobbing on her daugh- ter’s breast. 2 “I have come home just in time," said Dora, folding the frail, quivering figure in hor arms, “Mother acar, we will be all the world to each other hencefor- ward.” And from that moment Noah Park- | house and his five tall sons never saw | Dorothy or her mother again. Dora has a bright little home, sus- tained and kept sunshiny by her own in- dustr; 1d Mres, Parkhouse is serencly happy in her daughter's love and devo- tion. “We don't want any third one to make us contented, do we, mamma?’ Doras asks laughingly.

Miss Lowse Lincoln Tucker has been employed in this establishment for the past four years, and during thav time, as for years beforo. she has suffered with sick headaches to such an extont asto compel her many times to leave her business and return to her home in West Roxbury. So violent have these attacks been that she has ofton been unable to walk from the store to tho depot, and has boen compelled to eall a earringe. This succession of tortures continued until last March, wnen Miss Tuckor’s attention was attractod by the story of another woman's exporiences, publishod in a Boston paper.

She doecided to try the merits of the highly extolled Paine’s colory compound, She took it without the knowledge of her family or fricnds.
