HOODLUMS WERE CALLED IN Btill Anothier Fxample of the Efforts Being Made by the Mejors Gang, JIM KYNEW'S CROWD SPCILS A MEETING an by for Club, Rewarded Fifth Ward Republican Over Strangers Who Werse Thelr Enthusiasm by the of Two Kegs of Beer. Presen There was an allegcd meeting of the Fifth | MWard Republican club held at Eighteenth and | Lake streets Thursday night, and by pulling the strings in the right direction it was cap- | fured body and breeches by the Jim Kyner. om Majors crowd, which controlled the de- Jiberations and made night hideous for blocks around. Two weeks ago, by an overwhelming vote of the club members, it decided to change the meeting from Tuesday to Thurs- day evening, in order that more of the re Publicans of the ward could attend, it being known that there were many who had busi- ness which detained them cach Tuesday even ing. This change was objectionable to the Kyner crowd, and Wednesday evening, led by Johnny Croft, the tary of the club, and Hugh A. Myers, a tenant of Jim Kyner's and a man whom Kyner is b oming for the Jeglslature in Croft'’s barn on Ames avenue, where they hatched up a plan to capture the meeting, which was the last one %o be held on a Tuesday night Thursday night, after darkness commenced 1o hover over the Fifth ward, the leaders of the revolt went out, and, so {0 speak, rang thelr bells cver the mouths of the sewers and the slums of the bottoms responded until fully 150 men who were never before seen in a Fifth ward meeting were present and crowding into the club room. The regular members of the club objected to the strangers taking a part in the meeting until the roll of the club had been called. They demanded that Johnny Croft produce the r 1l of mem- bership, but he dodged the issue by saying that he had forgotten the book and had left it at home. Other motions were made look ing to the ejection of the intruders, but every motion was vited down by the gang, which was given the tip by Myers, Hender- son, who s a candidate for the city counc’l and Frank R. McElhany, who wanis to be a ‘ward fissessor, and all of whom are boing ‘groomed by Kyner. A organizing the meeting the hired strikers from the bottoms and from the cther wards set up a howl for Myers to address the meeting. He neede no second invitation, and, sailing in, he de voted his time to pushing for Majors and telling what the ward needed, notwithstand Ing the fact that he has resided in the ward searcely long enough to become a resident Myers finished his specch and then the prowd commenced to demand its beer, some of the parties saying, “You promised us beer if we would come fn and help you out.” This gave the whole snap away and the meet- ing adjourned, to reconvene at a saloon on Sherman avenue, where two kegs of beer were rolled out and drank, amid great en- thusiasm, while the men cheered for Majo Kyner and Myers. Yesterday Croft, was | seer the secretary of the olub, was accused of selling out to the enemy and frankly admitted that he had de his colors and that he did so for the cor ation that there was in the deal. WILL REPULIATE HASCALL, Populiats WIll Contest the Statesman's Seat in the Couvention Today. The populists of Omaha have at last pulled off the mask behind which Ike Hascall has been hiding and haye -discovered that he .has been playing them fat agd lcose. They have nct only performed this act, but they | have repudiated him and @l the same time - they have ‘taken steps to'drive him out of the party. This all happened Thursday, and down in the First ward Barly in the morning Hascall's strikers tarted a boom for Hascall with a view to electing him a delegate to the county con- ventlon, but seeing that their efforts were to be in vain they resorted to other tactics &nd pushed bim in by a bare plurality cf six votes. The primaries for the purpcse of electing delegates were held Thursday night, and when the polls opened, Hascall did not stand a ghost of a show of pulling through. Hascall's strikers realized this fact and going out into the ward they corralled a lot of democrats, who wer: marched up o the polls and voted for Hascali, regard- less of protests and challenges. Since then the populists of the First ward have been busy formulating a plan for downing -the man who has pos:d as the great champion | of labor and corporations. They have de- clded to contest his seat in the convention, | and to make the work effective, they have procured numerous affidayits that he sccured | his election by fraud, that he was elected by democratic votes, that he is 1ot a popu- Mst and that he has been repudiated by the party. ' The populist county convention will be ) held today. At the primaries held Thursday the following delegates were selected to the convention: First Ward—G. W. Kenne J. Krechler, R. F.

Before making nom- inations for the offices Mr. Cree said that this was a year when the young men would be expected to put in their best licks, and, for his part, he wanted the Fourth ward club o recognize thelr past political work by placing In nomination only young men. He then nominated Wallace J. Broatch for the office of president. The rules were sus- pended and Mr. Broatch was elected by ac- clamation.

HEALTH OFFICIALS MEET JUDGE S€COTT Exacted 1s with Good Sureties for Their Appearance to Answer to Alleged Con- tempt in the Garbage Case. can Shown Special Favor, dun- Another round of the dump-garbige con- test is slated for a hearing In Scott's c urt this morning, at which time and place Maycr Bemis, Chief of Police Seavey, Health Commissioner Saville, together with Coun- climen Howell, Bruner and McAndrews, will be called upon the carpet to g reasons why they should not be punished for having violated an order of the court in this that they are alleged to have al- lowed the Fourth street and Pcppleten avenue dump to become filthy such extent that it has become a nuisance. The same matter was before Scott Thurs- day morning, but as the parties #eady to go to-trial a continuance dered without the taking of any testimony. At this alleged hearing in the alleged con- tempt proceeding the chief of police and the councilmen absented themselves from the court, much to the disgust of Scott, who has ‘ordered a capias citing them to be on hand this morning and explain why they ignored the order of the court in not appearing Thursday. While but little was any amount terday on account r Bemis and to an were not wis or- id Thursday, there of disgust expressed yes- of the manner in which Dr. Saville were treated Scott when the dump matter up for consideration, After Scott had made his order for continu- ance he proceeded to treat the two eily officials like a couple of criminals, com- pell ng them to each enter into bonds for their appearance, today. The bonds were only in the stm of $100 each, but not- withstanding the small amount the officials claim that Scott took this cpportunity of humiliating them and placing them in the same category with other criminals. He would not all'w them to give their own recognizance, but went so far as to compel them to get suret'es, a thing, however which they had no difficulty in doing, as Dr Towne and half a dozen other wealthy gen- tlemen were in the rocm anxious and ready to go on the bonds of the two officials. The gentlemen who were placed under bonds to appear did not object so much to the giving of bonds, but they had heped that all cf the defendants would be treated alike, as they did not expect that fish would be m:de of one and fowl of the other. In this particular they cite the treatment which Bob Duncan received at the hands of Scott. Ier a long time Duncan has been a mem- ber of the Beard of Health and one of the pirties who was instrumental in the main- tenance of t:c Poppleton avenue dump. He has besn looking after sanitary matters, and, as the other members allege, he has kncwn of the condition of the place. If it was filthy the other members claim that he has not so reported its condition to the board, but, inste:d, he has rushed off to Scott and before him he has secured a war- rant for the arrest of his associates and workers. Members of the board yester- ay, in discussing the matter, said that in their judgment Duncan was subject to im- peachment in not reporting the nuisance if he knew that cne existed, as it was his duty as an officlal of the city to call the matter to the attention of the board instead of rushing into court. They also think that Scott tock hcld of rather an obs horn of the dilemma in holding them &nd letting Duncan go free while he was equaily guilty it any order of the court had been violated, Scott's Flags Laid Away. When C. R. Scott first went upon the bench he was assigned to law room No. 2, but after a while he went upon the criminal bench. While he presided over the business in No, 2 he struck a very patriotic streak and cured a couple of large flags, which he had T the entrance of the room. While he remained in that court he took great de- light in pointing to the starry banners and declaring that he was an American with American principles born and bred in the blood and bone. The other judges felt that they were Americans, but they did not think that it was necessary to parade their Ameri- anism from the bench, so they looked at Scott’s flags and said nothing. As time rolled on Scott was taken oft the law and placed upon the criminal bench, though the flags did not go along, as they were for- ptten and were left in the room which he had abandoned. Since the date of the trans- fer of judges Scott has never pointed a bony finger up to the flag of the free and cautioned men as to what might happen if they so far forgot themselves as to “trample those starry emblems in the dust. The other day the superintendent of the building had occasion to make some changes in room No. 2 and in 8o doing he had to re- move the flags. They were taken down and instead of being nailled to the mast in the room where Scott presides they were con- signed to the dusty confines of the garret, Scott not even entering a protest. No person around the county building has even inti- mated that Scott has lost any of his American patriotism during the past two years, but there are a number of officials who unhesi- tatingly express the opinion that he has be- come tired of waving the stars and stripes in making his grand stand plays. was Judge Ambrose was upon the bench yester- day, the first time since he returned from his vacation. He spent the day in hearing mo- tions and granting orders.

Afliction’s Heavy Hand. Mr. Sandy Griswold, sporting editor of The Bee, received a telegram yesterday announc- ing the death of his brother, James Ezra Griswold, at Lancaster, O. The deceased was years of age and Mr. Griswold's youngest brother. He was one of the best newspaper men in Ohio,.a tireless worker, and a young man of very high literary attainments. He was & devoted memb:r of the Eplscopal church and led an exemplary- life. Mr. Griswold has had more than his share of bereavement and afflictions recently. His aged mother dropp:d dead but a short time ago, and his host of friends in Omaha will sympathize with him in his latest grief. His father, who is now 80 years of age, in a re- cent letter to Mr. Griswold, expressed him- self In the following pathetic words concer ing the burdens and sorrows of his family: “A malignant fate seems to have us in its toils and I consent to stay in life only for the purpose of Keeping company with the loved ones im all the miseries which fate dares to inflict.

Tancy at Belfast. The Irish flax crop of 1563, he writes, has proved the m:st favorable for the growers that they have had for many years, the proprietors of the leading Scotch mills declaring that it was almost unprecedent Regarding American flax, he writes: “‘Some of American flax have been sent to ountry, but generally they en 80 roughly or carclessl; bandled they could only be classed as I-w."” He sees no reason why the cultivation of flax for the fiber should not be extended in thd United States, as there is no secret about the growing, scutching or retting. It only requires careful handling, and can always find a ready market on this side of the water 0 long as this kingd m continues to admit the forefgn article within her borders free of duty, at a price that would pay the grower far better than any other crop he could raise. Censan in WASHINGTON, the eleventh census is on population and vital statistics being all that remains to be done. The portion of the work on population remaining uncompleted is thut on occupations. The vital statistics are made up largely from the figures on popula- tion, and have been held back on account of the work in the population division. Chief Clerk Down thinks that in less than five months, the work of the census will be com- pletely ‘closed, and the present force of 400 employes reduced to forty or fifty at the outside, These will be experts, who will have charge of the proofs from the printing office. An additional supplement to the com- pendium of the census is yet to be issued Dut_ while the census work proper will thus be finished in a few months, it may be sev- eral years before the work of printing Is all done and the completed work published. The completion of the work at so early a period is unusual, and to Superintendent Wright's skill and experience in handling statistics this is largely attributed. that Alout € Sept mpleted, 14.—The ompleted, work the work of Chili Wanis to Guy the Road.

Work is cheap—food is cheap—clothes, we dare say, never sold so shamafully low. No one to blamo, The woolen man saw fraa wool coming and the cloth got cheaper, the manufacturer wanted our ready cash badly and clothing had to go down mighty low for it. A year ago we retailed a suit for five_dollars, that kept buyer puzzled and seller rake his brains how it could be done—a suit con- sidered a truer bargain at $10.00 than any one sold in Omaha at that price. This year wo'ro selling 'em at four dollars, and a trifle better suit in every way. Suits that wore six fifty last year are but five dollars this year. Somewhat finer in workmanship too, and a good size collection of patterns to select from. Before you buy ours, take a look at any $5.00 suit offered about town, examine it rigidly and look at ours last. Our suits are warra ated all wool. Suits that we sold last year at ten dollars were. the best fifteen dollar suits ever sold legitimate or oth- beyond con- tradiction erwise. This season suits of the same class are only seven fifty, and are, by the way, far batter made than ever before, The fabric is as reliable as ever, couldn’t improve on that, for we always aimed to furnish for that particular suit a cloth that is particu- larly durable. Quite a number of new patterns, chiefly dirt-defy- ing mixtures —single or double breasted. Store open evenings until 8 o'clock for the accommodation of those whose time is occupied during the day.
