age farmer and granger as being
most fearfully and wonderfully large,
but we think with a few exceptions.
these appropriations are all right and
absolutely necessary.
The bill to provide tor the cleo.
ton of clerks of the districts courts
which passed the House, was dc.
feated in the Council to-day by a
vote Of to 5.
The capital removal bill has not
come up in the Council yet for &C.
ton, but no doubt will some time this
week. The Huron lobby, who are
working in the interest of the bill,
have established regular quarters at
the Jencks Hotel where the choicest
of wines, liquors and cigars are fur
nished, and guests and members OF
the legislature are entertained in
princely style. 1t is stated that the
Huronites have sufficient funds on
hand, If it is necessary to buy the
removal Of the capital, to pay each
member $1,000. There is no doubt
but they arc working hard for the
accomplishment of their desires.
Capt. J. W. Young and wife, of
Sioux City, came up Saturday ard
remained until Monday morning

No bills of any great importance
have been passed yet.

of the session, when the members
begin to look up their pet measures,
and crowd them through.

Requested by the Proprietor OF an Omaha
Hotel Ia Nacate the House-Non- CompIi-
ance with the Rules the Cause.

Requested Dy the proprietor OF Omaha
Hotel tn NacRte the House-Non- CompIi-
anee with the Rules the Cause.
Omaha, January lit was known
here on sunday night that there had
been u quarrel between Madame
Christine Nilsson and the proprietor
of the Paxton House, the result of
which was that she left there and
went to another hotel. The import
of the affair was not made public until
this afternoon, however, when Mr.. j,
b. Kitchen gave the following version
to your correspondent. On the arrival
of the party Sunday night the various
members were assigned to the rooms
reserved for them, Miss Nilsson being
placed in am elegant suite on the par
Tor floor. she Immediately began to
find fault with the appointments. etc,
and Mr.. Kitchen, at considerable
trouble, secured her another suite on
the third floor, informing her that she
would have to make haste to get her
supper before the meal hour expired
She paid no attention TO this, and Mt
III O'Clock rang for supper, and was
very indignanwhen informed that tit
was impossible to serve it ut that time.
The manager went up TO pacify her,
and was met in the hall by the singer,
who came towards him
WITH GREAT FURY,
so that he was obliged to put out his
hands to keep her away A stormy
scene ensucd, the outcome of which
was that Miss Nilsson was requested
To leave the house at once. She re-
manned until morning, however. and
then secured rooms ut the Willard. A
few hours after the scene in the hall
way, 1t was found that there was a bad
leak from some of the closets ON the
third floor, the water running down TO
the parlor floor and making sad havoc
with the ceiling. Not wishing to dis
turb the guests ut that hour TO fiad the
leak, the engineer shut the water or
from the entire house. An examina
ton III the morning showed that the
valve in n closet adjoining Miss
Nelson's bedroom had been broken.
and that the water had been RUNNING
there at full head until turned of from
the house by the engineer. The rod
was evidently broken Inv
n quick, petuiant Jerk, though
whether Intentionally or not is IN
known. Mr.. Kitchen believes il was
an accident. OF course the other side
has its story, but Mr.. Pond, the treas
urer OF the troupe, while claiming that
they
WERE NOT FAIRLY TREATED,
says Miss Nilsson certainly did moi
act like a lady i'm the matter. and n
large number of the guests nj the
house concur in this opinion. Miss
Nilsson herself is rather reticent
about the trouble, having apparently
cooled down, She now says that She
Is very sorry Mr.. Kithen could not
depart from his usual rules and treat
her as she is accustomed Ia being
treated at other places.
The appearance of Miss Nilsson
during her TRADE in the hallway Is
said 10 have been dramatic in the ex-
treme, and Mr.. Kitchen was still
trembling with suppressed rage and
emotion when he told the story this
forenoon. -Gto be Democrat Special

active; they opened at 10415, advanced to 1861
and afterwards declined to 10436. Since the ex-

consequent heavy dealings in them on the new
