Tonzo Henry, a young man rooming in room No. of *he Dawes block, was nearly asphyxiated by gas last night and escaped with his life only by the merest accident. ‘When he retired at 11:30 he turned off the gas In his room and accidentalyy turned it partially on again without knowing it. He was soon in the land of dreams and would probably have been there for all time had not W. H. Ungless, a prescription clerk in the Lansing pharmacy, discoversd his condi- tiol ccidentally. Mr. Ungless and his wife room in the same block and on the same floor. Along about midnight he was seized with an idea that he was hungry. Leaving his room he went out to a restaurant near by and purchased several sandwiches, and while returning noticed a §trong odor of gas In the hall. He believed that the gas came from Henry's room, and after knock- ing and receiving no response he broke in the door. Henry was already in an uncon- ous condition, but the prompt efforts ot ans who had been hastily summoned, s and life.

Editor Collins of the Bennett Union has #inished up his little controversy with the Lancaster county courts and left for home, with the determination to confine his efforts in the future strictly to the moulding of publlo opinion, " Some monthis ago- an inerant dentist came to Bennett and R i e e s building, where he relieved the suffering public of its aching molors at the rate of 50 cents per molor. Editor Collins fell in love with the profession, and thinking it offered induce- ments of a flattering character to a man with a well developed pull proceeded to learn the trade. When he had made considerable progress the dentist left town and the editor purchased his outfit and continued the prac- tico. He was succeeding fairly well, when an officor of the law armed with a warrant Bwooped down upon him and placed him .under arrest for presuming to advertise him- Delf as a dentlst without first securing from tho state authorities the necessary certificate proving that he was not only qualified but that he was not the kind of a man who svould harrow the sensitive souls of the ecretaries of the State Board of Health by ailfully being guilty of unprofessional con- Wuct. The editor appeared before the magistrate today and after paying the cost bill and agreeing to leave the dentistry busi- mesn severcly alone was permitted to depart | gram %o The Be dn peace. SMASHED HIS FOOT. A. I. Lovell, a telegraph operator in the employ of tho Western Union, met with an mecident shortly after noon today which may Yoavo him a cripple for life. He lives at Mwellth and Belmont streets, and was re- turning to the city from his dinner. In order to save time he undertook to climb between two freight cars on a train standing on the Missourl Pacific crossing at X street. \Just as he was between the cars and resting on iho bumpers, the engine started, jerking tho two bumpers togother and catching one of his feet between them. The foot was crushed almost to a pulp. He managed to extricate himself, and as soon as he got to tho ground ho attracted the attention of the trainmen. He was taken first to the office of Surgeon Giffen and afterwards removed 0 his home. Lato this afternoon the sur- geon states that he belioves he will bo able o the injured foot without being com= melled to resort to amputation. LINCOLN IN BRIEF. Mrs. Anna J.

Walker & Co. bank- rupt stock, T FOUR TO THE PENITENTIARY. Judge Scott Metes Out Punishment to a Number of Malefactors. While waiting for the lawyers to got some of their cases ready for trial, Judge Scott took a hand yesterday afternoon and as- signed four men to work for the state. In making these asslgnments the judge gave C. Jackson ten years and Charles A. Austin seven. These men were partners and were the individuals who were convicted of burg- larizing the residence of A. A. McClure, from which they took a lot of clothing and Jewelry, which was pawned In this city and in Council Bluffs. * H. H. Blanding, the young man who pur- chased a diamond ring from Max Meyer & Co. and gave a check upon a bank in which he had no account, was sent over the road for one year, Fred C. Lucchisi, the young man who “did” the Omaha News company for $910 and then skipped, was sentenced to a term of onn year. To vary the monotony, the court gave a free lecture with each sentence, remarking to Jackson, who is known as “Sleepy Saun- ders,” that the community would be much safer with him in the penitentiary. This man is an old-time crook, having served a sentence In the Colorado peniten- tiary at Canyon City, where ho was sent after having been convicted of embezzlement. In imposing the sentence Judge Scott said “When a man turns burglar the best place for him is in the penitentiary, for tho rea son that a man who will comumit burglary will murder if it bo necessary to accomplish his purpose. The fact is that the burglar is a traveling murderer, carrying the tools of the burglar in one hand and the tools of the murderer in the other." In the cases of the other men, they prom- 1sed to reform and do better after complet- ing thelr terms of imprisonment. ‘Water Works Litigation, The suit of the Shickle, Harrison & How- ard Iron works of St. Louis, Mo., against the American Water Works company was callod for trial In Judge Keysor's court yester- day, where the plaintiff Is seeking to recover the sum of $79,020 and interest since 1890 on an alleged contract entered into between the plaintiff and the defendant. In making its showing the plaintiff charges that during the year 1890 the defendant con- tracted for the furnishing and delivery of some 12,000 tons of iron pipe, to be delivered at Denver, Colo., the price to be $33 per ton. Asido from this the plaintiff alleges that during the summer of 1891, the American Water Works company of lllinois, the owner of the Omaha plant and the Denver City Water Works company of Denver con- solidated under the na of the American Water Works of New Jersey and operated both plants under one management. Shortly after that time and before the completion of the contemplated extension of the malins of the Denver plant, that concern became in- solvent and went into bankruptey, taking the Omaha plant along with it. When this took place there were 10,636 tons of the pipe which had been manufactured for Denver, which had not been delivered, and It is for the payment of this pipe that the suit has been brought Tho legal Interests of the Omaha end of the waterworks company are looked after by an attorney, who, In stating the case to the jury, said that he proposed to show that the “whole affalr was & scheme to cripple sheetings | the Omaha plant. After the consolidation of the two systems it wad’decided to extend the mains of the Denvee pant and charge the expense of the samgsagainst the Omaha plant.

At the close, Jud, well went u the bench and announ that he was constrained to think that there had been a case of mistaken identity. In any event, there was not sufficient evidence to prove the charges, and from what could be learned, he did not sec how blame could be attached to any person. There had been » much said about the matter that in his opinfon It was better to excuse the present jury from any further consideration of the 108 In the case, that there might be no of fraud. As testimony had been taken with reference to the charges against the juror and the cvidence of no wrong had been discovered, the court considered it advisable to let the matter drop, Di ing the matter to some Judge Hopewell said that this was one of the fllustrations which showed how impor- tant it was for parties to law suits to con- duct themselves in a manner that suspicion would not attach to their actions The attorneys for Hansen wanted to go on with the case, but those who represented the Callahan Interests insisted upon the case going over the term. As a conipromise, it was agreed that the case should go to the foot oY the call and be tried by the new jurors, who will be called into court one week next Monday. e S WILL FIGHT DEADWOOD, or Organizations Determined to Re the County Seat to Lead Cit LEAD CITY, S.
