RESULT OF A THEATER PARTY, Complications Into Which it Hus Drawn Two Young Attorneys. A theater party was given in Omaha a soupie of months ago, but the young ladios who took part in it will probably find in this snnouncement for the first time that behind It all was & story that they knew nothing of. George 1. Wright and George H. Mayne are both young attorneys, und they were en- gaged on opposite sides of a case that was bried in the district court. Wright happened to be going to Chicago while the action was pending, and as there was 15 that was to be paid into court just after his departure he wade private arrangements with Mayne o receive and receipt for the amount in the elerk's oftive, so that he might get the money from Mayne when he eame home rather than run the risk of the possibilivy of some one getting it who might cause him more trouble in efectiug a transfer, Mayne und Wright were on the best of terms, and so Mayue decided to give a thea- ter purty while Wrignt was revelling amid the beauties of the “‘wooded isiand” and the ‘‘congress of forty beauties” The pariy was organized and & play 1 Omaha ‘was witnessed by & number of the young people. The ladies were told that all the expenses were borne by Mr. Wright, and _ they were loud in thewr praises of the hospi- tality of a young man who would provide an entertaivment for his friends when he was Bot there Lo enjoy it himself.

NOW WILLING TO MAKE A COMPROMISE ome of the Road Trying to Fathom rublie Opinlon—A Proposition from the Company~ Probable Action of the Citizens. 3 The motor company officials have been in- dustrially sitting on the nest for the last three months, and succeeded "in hatching out & proposition, which was laid before the members of the city council yesterday fore- noon, nicely wrappea up in cotton flaunel to prevent it from being frozen to death. It s an ill-favored sort of & vroposition, or eomed at least to the Blufiites who were present. The meeting was called at the ofice of the company by Messrs. Guy C. Barton and J. H, Millard of Omaha and N. W. Welis of er, who composed the committe, which had a consultation at the Grand hotel several months ago with a large number of citizens, who were called in one by one, to state “what was the matter with { Council Bluffs." Mayor Lawrence, City Attorney Hazelton and Alderien Smith, Hathaway, Jennings, Keller and White were present at the meet- ing yesterday morning, together with a num- ber of citizens who have interested them- solves on the side of the city as against the motor company. ‘The motor men stated that they had been considering the points at issiie between the city and the company and they had come to the conclusion that a com- promise might not be out of order, “You people over here have a lot ot suits against us,” was the substance of their talk; “1f you will disiniss all of the suits we will pav for the paving that is now in litigation and everything will then be lovely.” Reuson for Thelr Willingness. Further conversation elicited the informa- tion thatthe motor officials in speaking of the “lot of suits” that were to be dismissed referred uot only to the suit for $10,000 for the paving vetween the tracks, thatis to come up for 1 in superior court, and to the paving suits that were brought by Harl & MeCabe for 100 or more property owners all over the city, but tothe suits brought by Spencer Swith to have the charter annulled nd the £50,000 bonus revoked and the dam- age suits started more recently by the ‘‘com- mittee of one hundred” to testthe newly passed -cent fare ordinance. ‘I'he councilmen heard the proposition and then held a consultation to determine what they would do with it. It dia not take them long to decide that the proposition was not such a one as the public would ratify, and they so informed the representatives of the company. The general impression seemed to be among the councilmen and the citi- zens that tue officials were simply testing the opposition, with u view to ascertaining just low much rope it would allow the com- ban, ‘L'here'was very little disposition to yield a point on the part of the opposition. The of- ficials stated that it thought very likely a proposition would be forthcoming before many days with reference to a commutation rate between the cities, although it would not give any idea as to the exact date at which this proposition ought to be looked for. Something Must Drop Soon. The city aud the citizens together have the compiny bound up in so much and in so expensive litigation that they think some- thing will arop before long. In case the prediction of the motor officials proves true and a proposition for a commutation rate is made, there is but little doubt of its accept- ance. The general opinion seems to be that a 10-cont rate for transients will bo satis- factory, providing a 5-cent rate, or ope ap- proximating that figure, can boe put into force for the benefit of the persons who cross the river every day. ““Their blood is on your head” if you permit your children to die of diph- theria, knowing how surely Dr. Jefferis’ remedy will cure diphtheria.

A Council Blufts Man's Experience with Vurlous Remedies and Physiclans, early a year ago William Woolner of the Mot politan hotel came to the oftice of Dr. Macrae and asked the physi- cian's ndvice concerning an ulcerous sore that had appeared at the root of his tongue. Mr. Macrae, as is well known, is one of the most competent and careful surgeons in this country, and he made a deliberato examination before he pro- nounced the ulcer to be acancer. With his well known honest frankness he told Woolner his true condition, and while not advising him to submit to an opera- tion told him that his only hope laid in that direction, but that even mod- ern surgery could not guarantee u cuve. Several subsequent examinations were made in Dr. Macrae's office in the pres- ence of other surgeons, and all agreed that it was a serious case, involving grave problems for surgery and medi- cine. An operation would cost $300, ne- cessitating the removal of nearly ull of the lower _jaw, disfiguring the patient for life. Dr. Pinney, who was also con- sulted in his office, advised the sufferer to go to Towa City to be operated upon. Mr. Woolner ascertained by corre- spondence that this would cost several hundred dollars, besides hi8 personal expenses, and months of increased pain. “I told the doctors,” he said, in speaking of his case yesterday, *‘thatT would let nature take her course and die when my time came. This was my situation when John Peters, the tailor, urged me to go and see Drs. Sweetland and De- Pev. Thad read a good deal about them in THE BEE, and when Peters urged me to see them I did so, but with no hope in my heart. I had tried all the various remedies, including even electrical and faith cures, but obtained no relief. 1 had reached a stage where I could scarcely talk and my neck was badly swollen. The cancer had eaten a large hole under my tongue. None but those who suffer and see such a doom constantly before them can imagine the complete despair I felt. When the new doctors looked at my mouth and told me they could cure me I didn't believe them—I couldn’t, but T promised to try the new medicine, and I have done so. Well, that is just four days ago today, Saturday, and now you can see for your- self that 1 can talk, and if I hadn't told you you would not nhave known that I ver had a cancer. I am sure the Sweetland Remedies will cure me; I am certain the promises given me by these doctors will be fulfilled. T have simply taken their medicine ten times a day, and every day I can feel and sce thut awful sore shrinking and dying away.” Mr. Woolner was told that what he was saying would be published. His eves brightened and his tace lighted up. ‘‘Print it as often as you want to, It is only the truth and can hurt nobody. I first heard of this wonderful medicine by reading about it in THE BEE and 1 can't say too much.” Mr. Woolner is 62 years old. He thinks his cancer was caused by ex- cessive smoking, and since commencing the medicine he has lost all desire for tobacco. He has been failing rapidly in health for the last year, and it will be a matter of a good deal of interest to note the effect the Sweetland Remedies will have in building up his general health while destroying the cancerous growth that has been so rapidly eating away his life. The case is certainly a very re- markable one and will be watched with a great deal of interest by many others than the friends of the afflicted man.

THIEVING CONSPIRACY UNEARTHED, Two Mllwaukee Frelght Employ in Deeds of Deviitry. For six menths or more, pust there has been a little scheme in operation at the Mil- waukee freight ofice in this city that has enabled two of the employes of the road to lay up the whole of their ‘month's wages in the savings bank and at the same time to live on the fat of the land and furnish their homes with a good many little luxuries that they would not ordinarily have been able to possess, The announcement of the crooked- ness of one of them will caus2 a profound sensation, inusmuch as he is a prominent church member, and is also convected with a number of secret societies. The sensation will be even greater from the fact that his misdeeds have been of so serious & nature that itis hard to see how he can escape a term in the penitentiary. F. K. Swain, check clerk, and Ed Brown, & truckman, are the two men implicated. Both are employed at the freight depot. Avout three weeks ago Night Watchman Ed Martin discovered that some wine which had been consigned to the care of tne com- pany was going slowly but surely. He set to work to find out who it wus that was re- sponsible for the diswppesrance, and it-was not long until he discovered that notonly wine, but goods of almost every description that could be uscd to advantage in 4 family, were going. He soon found evidence enough w implicate the two men named and he notified the officials of the road a few days “I‘:owlh’e Price of Chicago ayrived in the eity Friday and after making inguiries de- termined Lo arrest both men in the hope of making them confess thelr guilt. The plan was successful, and when the men wore tuken into custody they coughed up with such beautiful sweepingness that no further efforts were necessary on the part of the officers. On &ofin‘h into Swain's residence 811500 South Ninth street the officers wet Detected Mrs. Swain, who ol fince suspected _what was in the wind. Fred,” was her first remark, “how many,dimes I have asked vou to give up thisbusingss.” *Ered’ looked though he wished behad taken the advic of his helpmeot, butshid not a word. The officers then began to ask him about the different articles. of furniture in the house and found that the carpet on the floor, the curtains at the windows and three big fleeco rugs on the fior had all come out of the boxes that had been stored in the freieht depot. On looking,, about the house fifteen yards of dross goods were found neatly con- cealed under the kitohien table. Swain also admitted having stolen at different times butter, ham, eges, cabbages, canned fruit and other kinds of provisions. He said ho had been at the business for about six months, but how much longer he did not say. At Brown's house the results were not so satisfactory. All that was found was tho other fifteen yards of the piece of dress goods that hadbeen found in Swain's house and he steadily refused to plead guilty to anything else. This, however, was enough to show that he was a partner in Swaimn's wrong doing. 1t is impossible to tell just how much the two men have stolen, but ‘in Swain’s caso at least tha amount is' sufcient to muke it a penitentiary offense. Swain, by doctoring the booke, was ablo to conceal the shortage from the other employes of the road. Somo of the uther employes claim to have known for some time of what was going on, but were afraid to tell for foar of the vengeance the two conspirators might wreak on them, Among the number is one man who says he was urged by them to enter into the plot, but refused to do so. Swain 1 said to be prominent in the affairs of one of the churches of the city, and is also a member of at least two local lodgas, The announcement of his crookedness will doubtless result in his summary expulsion from all of these organizations. The stolen property was all removed yesterday after- noon and the house,was left in a somewhat barren condition, 86 far as furniture is con- cerned. The trouble weighs heavily upon Mrs. Swain, who s in a delicate condition. Brown resides at 1600 #South Ninth street. Bouh men were released on bonds of $200 last evening.

At the St. Clair hotel, just north of the Millard, on South Thirteenth street, lies a vietim of misfortune—friendless, hungry ana alone. True, heis well dressed and a gen- tleman in speech and bearing, vet, neverthe- less, he is suffering from the pangs of hunger, and from the exigencies of the weather no less, and probably more, than 6 veriest tramp. Last night Tue Bee received a letter, evi- dently from one with whom Dame Fortune had dealt harshly, asking that a reporter be sent to see him and investigate a case of what, from the toue of the letter, appeared tobe a olear case of “hard luck.” The writer did not ask for money. He wanted work, that was all, aud said that he had sought for it ever since his arrival here, in vain, and that he 8aw nothing but starva- tion in sight. P The reporter who ealled to see the unfor- tunate found a man lying in & scantily cov- ered bed in a chilly ¥6om, suffering from cold and hunger and utterly discouraged with a world that appears t4 have given him “‘the worst of it.” He found a handsome and gen tlemanly appearing man of German extrac tion, whose clothing, hanging on a chair, showed that he had‘tried to keep up ap- pearances tothe lask-a man who had no particular complaing,to make excepting tho }l(‘l that he had beea unable to find work and that his streugth had about given out so that he could not sea) much longer. The man gave WS name as Frank A. Miller, For a numbgk of years he has been a hotel clerk in thié ¢ountry. For some time he was employed at Savanuah, Ga., later at Trenton, N. J., and lastly at Readiog, Pa., which place he left, he says, July 20 to go to the old couatry and bring his mother, who is now in Maryland, to tnis side of the water. Since his return, he says, he has veen unable to tind work snywhere, and came west thinking that he could find employment much easier west of the Mississippi than east of it. 1n this, 48 can be easily seen, he was disappoiuted. Ever since his arrival here, he says, he has persistently sought employment here and in Covncil Bluffs, not only In his own line of business, wut in everything else, but without success, al- though he has haa several prospects of work held out to him. T'o the reporter who called on him last night he stated that be had pawned his eye elasses to buy bread witl the last thing, he saia, that was left him. and yet went on to siy Lhat he was ac quainted with Lwo prominent men in this city who could have helped him out, and that he would not, on account of vride ask l them to do so.

There are poor accom- modations at the station for women and Judge Fowler thought it would be best to have her taken to the county jail, where they have all accommodations necessary. Mrs. Rudiger looked pale and somewhat worried as she passed up the street with the officer, but was apparently little cmbarrassed at the stare of the men along the street, who craned their necks to get a look at the woman who did the sensational shooting a few uights ago. It Was a Fisuco, Charley Raymer had some fun with the gaug over at Swift's packing house Fri- day noon. For some time there has been a scheme on foot to get some heavyweight to go up against Raymer fora few rounds, but it seemed that none of the boys were anxious for the pleasure. Iriday Raymer went to a burly colored man who works at the house and put up a job for him to aceept u challenge. The word was passed around from one room to another that the fight was to take place at noon akout one mile below the house. All hanas were anxious to see the mill and as long as there was to be no admission fee chargea the crowd was simply stupendous. Raymer and the yellow boy, surrounded hy their friends, started off for the scene ot the battle, followed by about 400 men whom they led until tired of walking. A refeveo and timekeeper were chosen and the mill was all ready to proceed. The men advanced to the center of the big circle and shook hands. That wasall. The fight was over and the laugh was on the gang that had foilowad. It will be a chilly day before Raymer can work the boys again, They say he will have to fight the next time whether he wants to or uot. % Not on the Regular Ticker. There was a grand stand rustle made in theranksof thelocal democratic nominees for office when it was learned Friday night vhat the secretary of the nominating convention had pocketed the proceeaings and failed to report the names to the county clerk in time to get the names on the regular ticket. The nominees are Lovy and Montgomery for i\ stices and Hanley and Eddy for constables. Ir. Montgomery has been east for several weelks and has not given the matter any at- tention until today. Levy and the candidates for constable went to Omaha Friday night and filed petitions in order to prevent being shut out altogether. Mr. Montgomery is of the opinion that it is not too late yet for the names to be placed on the regular ticket, and he is in the city today to have the mat- ter fixed up if it is possible. John Carroll was the secretary of the nominating con- vention, but says the matter slipped his mind entirely. Caught & Forger, Officer Tom Eminger made a good catch Friday night shortly after 12 o'clock. For several days Chief Becket and his men have been endeavoring to locat® Jack Carey, who was known to be somewhero in the city. Carey is wanted on a warrant sworn out in Kansas City, Kan., accusing him of forgery. An hour after the matter was placed in the hands of Officer Eminger the prisoner was behind the bars. Carey at one time conducted a saloon in this city in partnership with a man named Adams. The firm dissolvea and Carey moved to Kansas. It is alleged that on the 10th of this month he forged the name of Catherine Lyons to a check on an Armourdale, Kan., bank, and secured $160 in cash on the same. Carey acted a little stubborn at first, but this morning cousented to return to Kansas without the formality of securing requisi- tion papers.

There is some discord between three stu- dents at the Omaha School of Telegraphy and the managers of that institution, J. D. Caldwell and William Fulkerson re- cited a tale of woe to a BEE reporter yester- day, to the effect that they had been ex- pelled from the institution, because they had complained to Prof. Sherwood over his alleged failure to secure positions for them at the expiration of their term at school. wWe each gave him $5 in advance as tuition fees,” said Caldwell ye day. ‘“‘He agreed to procure us positions as operators at the expiration of seven months attend- ance at the school. Our time was up some time ago and he broke faith with us. Be- sides, he does not fully live up to all that he says he will 1n his circulars, We made a ‘kick’ lasy Monday about the matter and four of us were expelled the following day, and we are still looking for the jobs that er came.” i, young men expelled state that Prof. Sherwood has no right to retain their money and then refuse to supply the positions promised. They consulted legal advice yesteraay and evidently intend to compel ompliance with the terms of the contract. Prof. Sherwood, lust night, in speaking of the troubles of his school, said: *‘Yes, I expelled all four of the young men and would do the same thing again if I had an opportunity. These young men entered the school some time ago for the purpose of tak- Ing a course in telegraphy. They paid their tution fees with the distinct understanding that when they graduated I would se- cure them positions. This agreement I make with every student, and up to this date I have sent out hundreds of the best telegraph and typewriting operators, Wihese four boys kept on with me, though they were absent during a portion of the course, which interfered with their studies, Some time ago one of them concluded that he knew all there was to be learned, al- though he could send but fourteen words per minute, and asked me to procure him i position. 1 told him that he could not hold down a key, as he was too slow and would be discharged without a trial. A few days ago one of the train dispatehers came to the school and asked if 1 had a good operator, Thad & young man who could send thirty- five words per minute, and he was recom- mended for the position. This made one of the expelled young men mad, and he at once claimed that I was swindling him. Not wishing to have any trouble I took no notice of the matter, but last Saturday, one week ago, he met & couple of partics at the door of the school and in- Queed them to go to another telegraph col- lege, teiling them that mine was a swindle 1 heard of this anda the same day 1 exjelled him, but not until after he had admitted that he had turned the would-be students away. he expulsion of this young man caused his chums to get angry, and Monday morn- ing they started in to raise @ row. ‘They succeeded, but they left the scnool and will not be allowed to return.” ——— WEATHER FORECASTS, Generally Fair and Warwmer Are the Ne brasks Fredictions for Toduy, WasHINGTON, Oct. 28, — Forecasts for Sunday: For Nebraska and South Dakota— Generally fair; warmer; variable winds.
