A Talk With Tommy Miller on His
Minneapolis Experience.

The sporting caterer, Ed Rothery, together
with Tommy Miller, returned from Mime
apolis yesterday. They have been there the
guests of the leading sporting men of that
city and ST. Paul since the memorable battle
between Tommy and Weir, the Belfast
Spider. Rothery looks fat rosy and salts
fled, and says that the stuff is in Miller for
winner against the best of them. He made
an effort to match him to finish with Weir
before leaving ST. Paul, but was unsuccess-
full but he says the prospects for arranging
for the go are good, and he expects to hear
definitely from Weir's hacker on the subject
early next week.
Miller Is in prime health, and fails to show
amark of his recent hard fight with the re-
doubtable Spider, in fact the Spider was the
worst marked man Of the two, the lick Miller
gave him IN the eye leaving dscoioration
that will remain for weeks.
In response to what he thought of Weir, he
said he thought he was an extra good man,
but that it was only a chance blow that he
got in on him (Millcr) that winded him, and
enabled tho Spider to eventually knock him
out "He can't do it again." continued

PRESS CLUB RECEPTION.
The Efforts of the Y. NJ. @. A. Ladies
Prove Highly Successful.

Last evening the ladies of the First
Christian church, who comprise the Ladies'
Auxiliary of the Y. NJ G. A, rendered a
complimentary reception to the members of
the Omaha Press club at the Y. M. c. A.
rooms. About 400 ladies and gentlemen were
in attendance and through the efforts Of the
ladies in charge pleasant evening was
passed and the members of the press
and the other guests expressed them
selves as highly pleased with the graceful
reception and pleasing entertainment ten
dered. The evening will doubtless result in
reciprocal sympathy and benefit to both
hostesses and guests. After the reception,
which lasted until about o'clock, the follow
ing programme was presented, with ex-Gov-
ernor Alvin Saunders as presiding officer:
Music. ........ First M. E. Church orchestra

Instrumental SOLO. ...Miss Mamie Clayton
Recitation. .............. Miss Jessie Scott
Trombone solo lo...............C. E. Anderson

At the close of this pleasing entertainment,
refreshments were served and brief social
was indulged in. Toasts were next an
nounced, and Ex-Governor Saunders was
called on to respond to the ''Y. M. G. A. of
Omaha" and, with his usual readiness, he
was equal to the occasion.
Mr. Lu b. Cake. a member Of the club, re-
sponded to the toast 1.-THE Press Club" and
did so to the utter satisfaction of his fellow
members. He described the purposes Of the
club and its brief but wonderfully successful
growth; he touched on the numerous temp
tations to which reporters particularly are
subject, and the force of character necessary
to successfully pass by them unscathed. He
spoke of the power the newspaper men have
to blacken or glorify the character Of a per-
son, and the care generally exercised by them
in properly restraining from an abuse Of this
power.
General George B. Smith was the last
speaker, and he discourse3 eloquently on the
great opportunity the press has to aid in the
advancement of the Y. NJ C. A. He urged
upon the members of the press to ally them
selves with the Y. M. G. A. in their grand
and noble cause-aunion of both forces would
result in incalculable good.

HEDSTKOM FOUND GUILTY.
He is Found Guilty of His Brutal As
sault on WalthcrS.

The trial of John Hedstrom for his murder
Gus assault on Henry Walthers on the night
of the 27th ult. consumed the entire atten-
tion of the police court yesterday afternoon
and developed some brutal features OF the
desperate attack before unpublished. The
court room was crowded with spectators,
who stood up the entire afternoon to listen to
the case. 1t appears from the testimony
given that Oberg, the proprietor of the saloon
in front of which the stabbing occurred, was
more or less connected with the affair.
For some reason Oberg had personal
grudge against Walthers, but in his absence
his bartender, Hedstrom, invited Walthers
in to take drink When Oberg returned he
ordered Hcdstrom to put Walthers out.
Without waiting to be elected, Walthers
walked out. On reaching the outside of the
door he dared Hedstrom to step out and have
it out in fair fight AS Hedstrom refused to
come out, Walthers started across the street
to his home. Oberg then urged Hedstrom
to step out and assault Walthcrs from be-
hind. Arming himself with knife the bar
tender slipped up behind his victim and
stabbed him in the back of the head, infiict-
ing terrible wound The blow stunned
Walthers and he fell to the ground, bleeding
profusely Hedstrom then jumped upon the
prostrate man and struck him several times
in the face with his knife. A powerful Swede
named Parkquist lent helping hand by
commencing to kick the wounded man in the
head. Tom Qulnlan, a witness of this brutal
act, rushed to the rescue and struck Park
quist over the head with tin bucket, and
caused him to leave the wounded man.
Walthers was left lying senseless on the
ground and all hands adjourned to the saloon
again, where Oberg patted Hedstrom on the
back, praised him for the bloody deed and
everybody had drink around. Walthers
was carried TO his home and did not regain
CONSCIOUSNESS until the next morning. AS
Hedstrom made the attack at the instigation
of third party, the Judge let him off easy,
tining him $40 and costs.

The cast of characters is especially weak,
with the possible exception of Newton
Gotthold as Phineas Fogg, the French valet,
but the possibilities for good acting are so at
tenuated, that probably it is invidious to crit
icise. The scenic effects were good barring
several ludcious failures in the working of
the machinery, and the costuming was snowy
