Thunders of Applause Greeted Their Maraclous Demonstration at Boyd’'s Theater Last Night— Many Well Known Citizens of This City Were Instantly Cured of Their Afilictions on the Public Stage. One of the largest audiences ever assem- bled at Boyd's New theater was gathered there last night and Friday night to witness the opening and closing demonstrations of the two magnetic healers in Omaha. Fri- day evening was their Introduction to the public of this city, and they were greeted by 2,000 people, standing room being at a premium long before 7 o'clock. As early as 6 p. m. an immense throng of aficted humanity congregated in front of the thea- ter, all eager to be the first to enter. Some came to be cured of various dis- easos, and others to witness their marvel- ous power of healing the sisk and to see a most remarkable exhibition. 1t seemed that their wonderful fame had surely preceded them, as long before the time of opening a great number of all classes of people, those in perfect health, as well as the sick, crippled and rheumatic, were clamoring for admission, having come from all parts of the city and state; the merchant, the millionaire and the artisan, on foot and in carriages—all were seen hurrying toward the great Mecca of health. When the doors were thrown open in less than Mfteen minutes the @gchestra seats were all occupled by a crowd of crip- ples and people affiicted with various dis- eases, the like of which was never assembled in the house before. The wisest, best educated and most en- lightened people are daily becoming converts to these new principles and methods, which are supported by such overwhelming evi- dences sustalned by public and private dem- onstrations of the most remarkable charac- ter; proofs which no reasoning mind can dispute; realities which echo and re-echo in the human mind as they witness the grand- est and most sublime panorama of living truths ever presented in the history of man. Surely the human magnets have captured the hearts of the people of Omazha, and their private treatments at their private office in the Paxton hotel will no doubt occupy all thelr time during their short stay in this city. They not only cure the blind, lame and crippled, but all strange power.

CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS Howell's Communication Urging Further Retrenchment Referred, SEVERAL SECONDARY HEADS AIMED AT Deelared that by the Plan Proposed Ten Thousand Dollars May Be Saved—Old Bills of arber Company to Be Further Investigated, At the speclal meeting of the city coun- cil last evening Councilman Howell sprung a surprise in the form of a communication suggesting sweeping retrenchments in the clerical force at the city hall, and a redue tion in salries of all municipal employes who receive over $50 per month. The communi- cation was To the Honorable Mavor and Mewbers of the City Council of Omaha: Gentlemen—Hope long deferred maketh the heart sick.” It again becomes my duty to call your attention to the lack of econ- omy and immediate need for retrenchment all along the line in running the city affairs for the remainder of this year. lLet me quote from his honor, the mayor, “That we are trying 10 run a great big threshing ma- chine " with nothing to feed it with,” on the other hand, when the mayor city council met last February to the annual levy for this year, there an carnest effort made, without avail, insist on retrench cach departn asking for an_increased appropriation, mayor's department alone asking for more than last year. At the present rate of Fellow and make was nt the 500 xnenditures there will be a shortage in nearly every depart- ment of the cily government, and more particularly in the general fund, long be- fore the first of next vear. I would there- fore respectfully suggest The absolute prohibition of expenditures from the general fund, cxcept in cases of emergency The discharge of one man in the city clerk's office at a salary of not less than £100 per month The discharge of two men in the treas- urer's office, drawing salaries of not less than $17 per month The discharge of one man in the comp- troller's office at a salary of not less than $100 per month. The discharge of one clerk in the office of the Board of Public Works at a salary of not less than $75 per month. The discharge of the assistant commis- sloner of health at a salary of $100 per month, and two sanitary inspectors at a salary’ of $60 per month The reduction in rivate secretary month. A reduction of 20 per cent in all salaries paid city employes except those who now receive salaries of $% per month or less, but_in no case should this reduction make any salary less than $ per month These, gentlemen, are a_few suggestions that will save in salaries alone over $10,000 for the remainder of this year, and if sug- gestion No. 1, in_reference to' the prohibi- tion of expenditures from the general fund except in cases of emergency, is adhered to it will save an untold amount. It does seem to me that with every private enter- the mayor's to $100 per prise running at a low ebbh and their ex- penses cut to the bottom notch, that it the duty of this council to make an hone urdened and o effort to relieve an ove taxed community. In conclusion let me say that it is not a pleasant duty to be compelled to advocate either the discharge of an employe or the reduction of his salary, but an emergency exists, and 1 never have been and am not now afraid to do my duty. 1 would r spectfully ask that this communication b referred to our finance tommittee for ir vestigation and report, knowlng that my position is correct, and belleving t not only this committée, but the entire coun cil, should concur In giving the necessar vefief. 1 send these suggestions at this time in order that wha er definite action is taken may be had at once necessary ordinances may be 50 that the Jrepared and 1 in time to take effect J last six months of this year. uly 1, or for Mr. Howell's suggestion was referred to the committee on finance. A resolution authorizing the health com- missioner to have printed and distributed to all interested, cards showing the price per wagonload, or fraction thereof, to be charged by the garbage contractor, was referred to the police committee. The special committee to which was re- ferred the claim of the Barber Asphalt com- pany from 1890 to 1894 reported that some portions of the contract were ambiguous, and recommended that the claims be referred to the Board of Public Works to investigate more fully and report upon, and also recom- mended that the Barber Asphalt company be notified to appear before the board and ex- plain the claims as presented more specific- lly. “Fhe fnance committee, to which was re- ferred the appropriation ordinance, reporte favorably save with respect to items of § for clerk hire per month for the health com- missioner, and $65 for janitor at the city jall. This caused some discussion, in which Councilmen Howell, Thomas and Gordon participated, The report of the committee was adopted, excepting the janitor's salary During the discussion a legal point was raised, but the city attorney was not present to decide. This aroused the indignation of Councilman Howell, who censured City At- torney Connell for continued absence from council meetings. A contention arose over the payment of $100 to Assistant Police Clerk Brown, but the committee report to pay him for the services was concurred in. The ordinance was then placed upon its third reading and passed by a vote of 12 to 3. The rules were suspended and a resolution instructing City Attorney Connell to attend councll meetings regularly until otherwise ordered was introduced by Councilman Howell. The latter claimed that the city attorney put in time at church sociables that should be given to the council. The resolution was tabled. —_— MODERN WOODMEN RECEPTION Nebraska Delegates to Hoad Camp Meoting Entertained in Omal Modern Woodmen of America of Omaha and South Omaha last evening at the Com- mercial club rooms gave a reception to the Nebraska delegates to the mecting of the head camp at Madison, Wis.

The ruling of the coyrt does not affect the company to any material extent. The inter- ests touched are said fo be worth not more than $50,000, which s an insignificant sum to a corporation with. §36,000,000 capital and 000,000 surplus. [The decision is, in ef- declaration that a corporation may engage in any business which may be con- sidered as advantageons:or merely an ad- junct to the businesy specifically set out in its charter without violating the law or ex- ceeding its corporate powers. Thus the court holds that the company had to erect an office building which would b2 large enough to accommodate its, business for years to come, no matter how considerable the in- crease, and had the right to rent out, in the | meantime, such portions of the building as were mot required for the company’s own use. Tho sale of liquor In dining cars was de- clared to be a desirable and necessary accom- modation for the comfort and convenience of the persons travelipg in the cars. The con- struction of the town of Pullman is said to be part of the general plan of operations fm- plied in the company’s eharter, and therefore falls within the power and proviace of the corporation. e HOW H2 KILLED HIM, Larry Bohen Describes His Tragio En- enunter with Harry Parker. On being taken to the county jail last even- ing to awalt trial Larry Bohen, charged with the murder of Harry Parker, described the quarrel “We were playing at craps Friday after- noon,” said young Bohen to a representative of The Bee, who called to see him in his cell last evening. “I had just come from eating dinner at the house of my sister, Mrs. Mag- gie Elman, who lives at 1109 Davenport street. Between Davenport and Capitol av- enue, back of the brick barn close to the alley, some colored boys were playing cr and 1 joined them. We played for cigarette pictures. 1 was to get a picture; the other three boys had theirs, and it was my turn to get a picture, but Parker didn't want me to have it. Parker, 1 think, had a whole handful of plctures himself. The way we plaved was this: Each boy was to have three throws, and each boy got a picture in turn. Parker and I got to quarreling, and he jumped and pulled a knife on me. He didn’t want me to have the picture. Then I got pretty well excited. “‘We quarreled, 1 should think, for fifteen minutes. There was a white woman in the window, and she told us to stop or she would call a policeman. I told him to stop, and put up my knife I held in my hand, but had mot opened. 1 went away and looked back, and he was following me, and he still had a knife in his hand. Then I opened my knife, for I saw he had also sefzed a cane. He struck at me two or three times and missed me and once he hit me, though I kept jumping out of his way. When I struck at him with my koife I hardly knew what 1 was doing. 1 then turned and ran home. He was following me. 1 didn't know what had happened, though I thought I had hit him. When 1 pulled my knife I was pretty well excited. The knife Parker had was a black-handled knife. I think ome of the blades was broken. I am not sure. 1 didn't see much; I only saw half of it. He pulled it out of his right pants pocket. “I knew Parker for a while, just knaw him when I saw him, that fs all. I was in Kan- sas City last winter. I went there to my sister's and came back about two months ago to get work, but couldn’t find any, and have not_been doing anything of late. 1 used to work in Lowrey's boiler shop. I hardly know how long I worked there. My father died about twelve years ago, I think. My mother died June 28 of last year. I will be 16 years old mext March.” In personal appearance Bohen is not over that. His face is deeldedly sunburnt; his hair short and black 'and slightly curly; his cyes are gray. His face is Inteliigent and not of the tough order,.but he is evidently laboring under great. mental stress from thinking over the deed, for which he ex- presses sorrow, but clahgs he acted in what he did in self-defensh The woman referred to, whose'name Rohen did not know is Mry.

NEW YORK, June 1.—The statistics of the mineral and metal products of the United States in 1894, compared with the output in 1893, have been compiled with care and will be published today by the Engineering and Mining Journal. The total values of the min- eral and metal production of the United States in 1894 and 1893 were as follows: For 1893, $615,846,806; 1894, $553,272,902, a decline for 1894 of about $62,5673,904, or 9 per cent. The great falling off was, however, due far more to the lower prices than to lessened quantity of product. Thus the value of our coal production declined last year $13,783,528, or 7 per cent, while in quantity it fell oft only 6,220,970 short tons, or 3% per cent. This small decline in the volume of coal produced is substantially a measure of the whole min- eral output of the country. The copper output increased 8 per cent, 327,555,588 pounds in 1893 to 3 from 3,504,314 a fall of $15,907 or 34 per cent. was partly due to a reduced production, 000,000 ounces in 1893 and only 49,846,875 ounces in 1894, but the price also declined from 78.2 cents per ounce in 1893 to 63 ceuts in 1894, On the whole the mineral industry of the Unitod States has made a highly satisfactory showing in 1894 in the quantity produced over such an enormous shrinkage in values. With prices lower than ever before thouzht possible, and In the majority of the cases lower than similar articles are produced any- where else in the world, the output has de- clined but little. The low prices no doubt maintained a large consumption, and now with reviving prosperity and prices the pro- ducers will reap the harvest for which they This planted in the hard times. WOMEN MURDERED BY A LUNATIC Mother and Daughter Found Dead In T! Apartments. MINNEAPOLIS, June 1.—A strange case of murder and suicide occurred at an early hour this morning. Mrs. Martha Elias and her daughter were found weltering in their own blood in their own rooms over a drug store on Nicolet avenue. It is the belief that it is not a case of suicide, but that both were murdered. It Is belleved by the police that the deed was committed by Lorrain D. Elias, son of the murdered woman. Elias {s mentally unbal- anced, and was for a time confined in the asylum at St. Peters, but was released May 1 as harmless. His grip, containing money and clothing marked with his name, was found in his room, and the curtain of the back window taken by him when he escaped was found A clean-cut bullet hole through the glass of the front window showed that one shot went wild. At the morgue it was discoy- ered that the vietims had been hacked and bruised with some instrument like a hatchet -and that the wounds were sufficient in the case of the girl at least to have produced death The revolver was not clutched tightly in the old lady's hand, as it would have been had sho died thus, but appeared to have been thrust into her hand. The police are now looking for the crazy son. The daughter was 25 years of age and was engaged to b married. She was the mauager of a suc- cessful laundry. OPERATURS AND MEN GET TOGETHE.

CINCINNATI, June 2.—The Commercial Gazette's special from Mansfield says: Sen- ator Sherman, in reply to a query last night as to whether he had read Senator Hill's criticism of his Zanesville speech, said that he had, but that Senator Hill's remarks would indicate that he had not read his speech. “At all the conventions in Ohio, said the senator, “we have declared that we are in favor of the use of both gold and silver, maintained at par with each other. To the extent that we can maintain the silver on a par with gold, we coin it at the present ratio. We buy the silver at its market value and coin it at the legal ratio, but we maintain it by receiving it and pay- ing it out as the equivalent of gold." ““Is there anything in this to degrade our dollar standard, as Senator Hill says?” “It does not degrade It. The whole of our policy 8 to maintain the two metals at par with each other." “What about Senator Hill's sarcastic re erence to our silver dollars and greenback dollars being exportable?” “Mr. Hill only displays his Ignorance when he says that our silver money and all other forms are not receivable In Eng- nd at the value we put upon it, because we recelve it and they send it back on the steamer at a trifling cost, and can use it in payment instead of gold. They can present sllver certificates and we receive the same as gold in payment of duties and other- wise. If we refuse to receive them on a parity with all other money we would at once bo on the standard of silver.” THEY HAD BETTER LOOK AT HOME pounds in 1894, though in value it declined no ol less than $1,639,508, or 4% per cent.

For some time past several investigations into the con duct of certain populist administration office holders, preferred generally by republicans, and which charged misappropriation of funds, immorality and drunkenness have been going on. In two conclusions Warden Chase of the state penitentiary has been found guilty and ordered dismissed, while Populist Sen- ator Rogers was shown to have been a drunkard and was reprimanded. In the in- torview ex-Governor Lewelling says that for immorality at least four men in high office in Kansas are worse than Warden Chase, and that if every republican who is as bad a drunkard as Senator Rogers were im- peached, the state house would be depopu- lated in a week. He says the recent ine vestigations are an inspiration of political lunacy, and adds that Governor Morrill is all right, but that his friends and advisers are leading him astray.
