Schemo to Postpone Action Until Afier the Coming City Elcetiol The Idea of holding a special council meet- Ing this week to transact the business left over by reason of the early adjournment Tuesday night has been abandoned end un- less new occasion should arise the council will not be called together until the next regular meeting. The most fmportant matter that is scheduled to be acted on next Tuesday night is the opening of the bids for electric lighting, as provided by the readver- tisement which was ordered some time ago. Since the resolution instructing the comp- troller to advertise for bids was passed the idea has occurred to one or two of the membeis of the council that it would be a very astute scheme to postpono action on the bids until after election. According to reliable au- thority this scheme is being industriously incubated in the cranium of Councilman Parker and will be sprung at (he proper time, providing he can acquire the necessary support to carry it through. som It is stated in favor of the proposition that the prospective action of the council on the bids may be productive of more or less criticism which would cut of figure before election, but s0 objectionable after the danger period had been passed. It is understood that the post- ponement will be effected by a reterence of the bids to a committee that can be relied upon i dclay a report until It 1 the pleasnre of the combine to consider them On the other hand, some members assert that it will be impossible for Parker to carry out his intentions and that they will insist that the bids shall be reported back to the council at the earliest possible mo- ment. The members who are not in the com- bine are determined that the others shall go on record before election and claim (hat their opponents will scarcely dare to so openly dodge the Issue. a good deal would not be > KIDNAPED BY HER MOTHER. ¥ourte n-Year-0ld Mary Meyer Away from Hor Father's Home CLEVELAND, Aug. 23.—Mary yer, the M-year-old daughter of Gottlieh M playing In front of her home at arried avenue Wednesday evening, when s approached by a strange woman. “Are you Mary Meyer?” asked the said Mary. hild! exclaimed the woman, throw- ing her arms about her and wrapping the h cloak she wore about the (rightened girl's head.

He is suffering Intense pain and sleeps only when under the influsnce of oplates. Last night a Bee repocter visited Williame In his cell and asked him for a plain statement of the case. He said: I generally meet Mrs. Powers, the cook at Pabst headquarters, twice a week and walk home with her. She is my promised wife. Wednesday night I went down to the headquerters as usual to meet her. She was late in coming out, so I waited. Two or three times [ went inside the place to get a glass of beer. Finally 1 saw Mrs, Powers came out, accompanied by a tall, heavy set man. 1 do not know who he was, as I am not acquainted with any of the pro- prietors or male help, They walked up the street as far as Fourteenth and Harney streets, Then 1 st:pped up and said, ‘T object.” The man left at onc und Mrs. Powers said, ‘I will go home alone Then I skipped over to Seventeenth street between Harney and St. Mary's avenue and waited behind a telegraph pole for Mrs, Pow- ers. I expected that she would meet wne and explain her conduct. Before she came the police stirred me up and 1 ran. When the policeman fired I did not stop, but kept on running. A couple more shots were fired and I was hit in the ankle, but 1 kept on running till I fell. Wh Drummy and Heelin came up one of them hit me over the head with his revolver and here is the lump.” Williams exhibited the mark on his head and then said that was all the statement he had to make. When asked explicitly about tie nan who was with Mrs. Powers Wil- lizms again said that he did not know who it was, In his official report to Acting Captain Ormsty Officer Drummy said that when he was called by Kortlang at Fourteenth and Harney streets, John Schrandt, one of the partners at Pabst’s, and a woman were with him. The woman went her way and he went up the hill with Kortlang. Last night Drummy stated positively that he never made any such statement. When Julius Kortlang was telling his story to Ormsby at the police station Ormsby asked him who was with him at the time and Kort- lang said Mrs. Powers and his partner, Schrandt. Captain Ormsby was taking down Kortlang's statement at ine t‘me, and made a memorandum of thet just the same as he did of the rest of the story. Mr. Kortlang lest night denied that he was with Mrs. Powers at the time when he left the store or when he called Officer Drummy. He said that his partner was with her, Officer Drummy In describing the shooting soon after it occurred remarked that Wil- liams was running when he fired, and he fired because he thought Williams had a revolver. Drummy even says that Willlams threatened to shoot him, but last evening the priscner declared that he did not do so and that he did not have a revolver. No revolver was found on him when he was searched. Pl Lively as a Trout. Is the Individual who after a long slege finds himself liberated from the close blockade of the enemy, constipation.

Never has such a crowd been seen on local pleasure grounds, and the amphitheater at an early hour was a black mass of color, contrasting splendidly with the varlegated colors of the costumes as seen in the pictures of Pompeiian life presented in the spectacular story of the days when Vesuvius became the spouse of the Bay of Naples. Thousands of persons have asked since the initial performance of Tuesday night how all the firing of the immense rockets, bombs and other pyrotechnic effects was done. The nat- ural answer to such a query is, of course, “by electricity,” but that stops far short of an explanation of the mysteries that are conczaled behind the burning mountain. The electrical system is composed of a number of circuits—sixteen in all. The pleces that are to be fired at the same time are connected, and the one touch of the keys sets all ablaze. Those which are independent have independent wires, but all of the eir- cuits conmect with the keyboard, which is situated bchind the temple of Isis, before which is the altar, where the last act of the drama occurs, as the eruption of the mountain begins. A coll battery Is used in firing. It s a square box containing coils similar to those on a dynamo, and on top is a lever by means of which the coils are made to revolve and thus the electricity is gencrated. Pyrotechnist Jim Cuniife and Charles Cor- della were standing at the board last night when the procession of priests marched down the marble steps of the temple. “Now watch the altar,” Mr. “and yon will see how the fire is started.’ As he spoke he moved the switeh to one of the knobs and quickly raized the lever of tae battery. Instantly a vivid flame shot up from the eltar, producing a weird effect upon the solemn scene. “Now look Cunlife said, out for Vesuvius,” he said a moment later. The switch was swung to another knob, the lever given another move- ment, and the ominous red fire began to glow on the mountain top. Mr. Cunlife then had time to remove his Roman toga, don his fireman’s suit and quaff some water to brace him for his struggle with nature's forces. By this time Colonel Arbaces and Mr. Glaucus are' engaged In their sword combat, and old Vesuvius gets an electric shock which most effectually awakens him from his reverle, and, as though making up for long-lost time, he belches forth a flood of flames, smoke and hissing, crack- ling fire serpents. A few seconds after the eruption has com- menced the burning lava has flowed down the mountain sides, and while the earth continues to quake, buildings and palaces must be leveled. Again and again the key board is manipulated, each time in another part of the painted city; destroying flames shoot up, accompanled by the most deafen- ing explosions. The bulldings begin to fall in every direction. Mountains toppled over and the walls of the city began to crumble. It is a thrilling and realistic sight when viewed from the front, but back amid the falling buildings it is wildly exciting. The timbers of which the buildings are made fail in every direction and blocks of wood from the roofs tumble dbout regardless of who may be in the way. The zw.le is dense. It blinds and stifles, and truly vre may readily believe that in the destruction of the ancient city the blind Nydia was as good a guide as lone and Glaucus could have found. Last varied co night the pyrotechnic display was iderably on a cunt of its being Woodmen's day at Courtland beach, and in honor of the occasion a picture of Fead Consul Northeott of Hlinols was dispiayed on u gigantic frane, while opposite the shicld of the order was filluminated with “Welcome, Woodmen,'" on the sides of the frame. I anything, the specialties last night were stronger than on the premiere of the spec- tacle, Trevanion and Condon on the hori- zontal bar, the Harmons in a clever aerial act, Ltezene and Robbins in a catchy con- tortionist turn, with Davis brothers in & boxing bout, giview: entire satisfaction. Vesuvius will burniagain on Saturday night, which has been made “Omaha night ' and the people of Nebrsuka's metropolis ure ex- pected to duplicate 4hd crowd of last night. e To Cleams: @he System.

In their wanderings the party stopped in Bertie Mann's place, and an officer who happened to go into the house on business placed the women under arrest as inmates of a house of prostitution, but the men es caped. The women were taken to the city jail, and the men hustled around to get them out on bail, for fear their racket would be given away and a scandal created. En- gaging a hack the men went to Clerk of the Policz Court Michaels and deposited $37.50 for the appearance of the women in court yesterdey, but when the cases were called no one appeared and the money was declared forfeited. The men carefully con- cealed their identity, but one of them dropped a remark which would indicate that they lived in the vicinity of Lincoln, and having met these three giddy females, who live on South Sixteenth street with alleged hus- bands, they started out for a gay old time. The men are sald to have come to Omaha as delegates to the state convention, and are said to be engaged in business in Lancaster county. None of the police knew them, and they managed to keep their names out of the affair. The women gave the names of Jen- nie White, Miss Moore and Mrs, R. D.
