Bro Burr of the Riverton Enterprise,
who aforetimes has remembered The
TRIBUNE generously and without stint,
d,gresses as follows. No George, we
are still occupying the tripod: ''The
McCook Tribune has changed hands and
comes forth as the Trumpet, under the
management of Davis 6. Israel, the lat
ter being the old owner before Dir. Kim
nell purchased it. The change does not
work an Improvement in the appearance
Of the paper, whatever it may do for the
other departments"
The borrowing (?) of wood and coal
has become quite epidemic, judging
from the tone of our exchanges. Que
of them touches up the matter in this
wise: ''To borrow or not to borrow
wood-that is the question ; whether
it is nobler in the mind to suffer the
paDgs which zero weather brings, OF to
90 out and borrow or perchance to steal,
ay, there is the rub, for in that steal you
may get hold ola loaded chunk that may
raise ruction in the stove. Thus con-
science does make towards of us all, and
the native hue Of resolution is sick

1t is correctly reported that after Jan.

railroads in Nebraska under penalty
Of 800 fne on whoever issued it. This

relegate to ohscurity, not to be bright

RETURN OF BRYSON.
The Tea Company Embezzler
Brought Back to the Scene
of His Crime.

of His Crime.
Detective Ahern arrived in the city at
noon yesterday from Chicago, having in
custody George D. Bryson, the former en-
ploye of the Union Pacific Tea company,
who skipped out about month ago with
over 81, 900 worth of goods and several
hundred dollars of the firms money.
Bryson gave himself up in Chicago last
week, being impelled to do SO by reason, it
is supposed, of remorse for his crime.
Upon arriving in the city he was conducted
to police headquarters and received by
Chief Clark and Mr.. N. B. Hatch, the man
ager of the Union Pacific Tea company. The
latter held a private interview with him, in
the course of which the young man ex-
pressed deep regret for his actions and made
a disclosure as to the disposition of the
goods. Before leaving st. Paul he shipped
large quantities of tea and coffee to Hast
ings, Saltwater and other neighboring
points, and upon arriving at these cities he
advertised an auction sale of the goods.
Becoming alarmed he left the state before
the goods were disposed of, and it is thought
that considerable quantity will be recOv-
cred.
In personal appearance Bryson is very
prepossessing. He is about "a years of age.
well built with clear blueish eyes, heavy
brOwS, fair complexion, and frank, open
face. He was in the employ of the Union
Pacific Tea company about eight months,
and has young wife who is at present with
her folks in Manitoba. Bryson is very well
connected in Montreal, belonging to rich
and respectable family, and his downfall is
attributed to card playing. the greater part
of the money appropriated having been lost
at poker in Saltwater and Chicago.
He was seen by GLOBE reporter, and
on being questioned he said: Regarding
my trouble Mr.. Reporter l don't want
anything said, at least for the present. 1
may have something to say after awhile,
but please keep my name out of the paper
as much as possible"
In conversation with Mr.. Hatch that gen
tleman said that he was unable to deter

ARCHITECTS AND INSPECTOR.
An Unreliable Reporter Gets the
Building Inspector Into
Trouble.

A special meeting Of the Architectural
association of Minnesota was held yesterday
afternoon in the Office of FL. S. Tfeherne,
Mr.. E. P. Bassford in the chair.
There were present Messrs. Bassford,
Bergman, Cashier, Gauger, Isaac HodgsOn,
A. j. Hodgson, life, Laird. Willard, Orff,
Stevens, Treherne, Ulrici, Wilson and
Building Inspector johnson.
The chairman stated that the object of the
meeting was to take action in regard to the
sweeping denunciations of the architects re-
ported in Sundays Pioneer Press as having
been made by Building Inspector Johnson
Mr.. johnson stated in explanation that he
had been incorrectly reported. He denied
having made such sweeping statements, and
said that he knew there were good men
among the profession in st. Paul, and that
he had never declared, as reported, that the
ST. Paul architects were incompetent. He
admitted saying that some young men, good
draughtsmen did not know anything about
materials or construction when they first
started out for themselves as architects. He
was sorry for the appearance of the damag-
ing and unjust assertions attributed to him.
Mr.. Stevens stated that the mischief was
done; that the architects of the city had
been classed as ignorant and incompetent
by the building inspector: that the numer-
GUS readers of the Pioneer Press would nat
urally think what Mr.. johnson publicly
said must be true as he was in a position
to know, and that a great injustice had
been done to the city in general and the ar
chitects in particular by city official. He
therefore thought that the denial Of Mr..
johnson should be made as public as posi-
BILE, and should appear in the columns Of
the paper that had circulated the state
ments. 5sl
After considerable discussion the resolu-
ton that Mr. Johnson, as building in
Spector and HONORARY member Of this ASSOC
citation, be considered exonerated, provided
he gives the. necessary explanation in the
paper publishing the remarks attributed to
him''-was moved and carried,
Concerning the report of the building in
spector upon the school buildings of ST.
Paul. the association took no action, con-
sidering the matter personal affair, not af-
fecting the association as body.
A resolution presented by MI. Bassford
was then carried, to the effect that COM
mittee be appointed to collect fund to be
presented to the secretary in appreciation
of his labors in the interest of the asSocia-
ton. Messrs. Stevens and Ganger of st.
Paul and Orff and Goodwin of Minneapolis
were nominated such committee, and Mr..
Bassford headed the list with $50.

vened by the deacons of the First Baptist
church to investigate the charges of i'm
moral conduct against the whilOm pastor
Rev. r. R. RiddelI, d. D., was held in the
Wacouta street chapel yesterday forenoon.

mings.
Rev W. T. Chase was elected modera-
tor and Rev. G. l.. Merrill clerk.
The records of the church were then
called for, and upon being produced it was
found that they were in shorthand, and in
the absence of an expert an adjournment
was thereupon taken until 2 o'clock in Or
der to have the records translated.
Upon reassembling it was stated that the
minutes were not quite ready for inspec-
ton, and in the absence of anything else to
do discussion took place as to whether the
proceedings should be conducted with
CIUSeu Ii WAS OCCluCu IIIdt tllc Ill
vestigation should be conducted secretly.
A cerberus in the form of stalwart sexton
was ordered to stand guard at the outer
door of the chapel and he was especially
cautioned to keep sharp lookout for pry-
| ing reporters. The latter were on hand just
the same, but in the absence OF both the
records and the material witnesses nothing
TRANSFERRED worthy of publication and the
council adjourned for ten days.
1t is expected that the investigation will
result in racy developments and from all
the indications there will be music by the
full band before it is through with.
In speaking of the investigation member
of the church said last night that during a
recent trip to the East he visited the town
of Wakefield, Mass, the former home of
DR.. Riddell, and that he had obtained more
damaging disclosures of the latters perfdy.
He states that if called upon he will be
ready to produce affidavits from prominent
citizens going to show that while resident
of Wakefield he obtained money under false
pretenses, and that he had borne highly
improper relations with women.

remarked that it must be side show and
that he had never seen so solemn-looking a

he was the first to come out OF the hopper,
and an investigation showed that he had
gotten drunk on pure alcohol, half-pint of

He said that he was stranger and that he
