New Method of killing Rodents.

A young electrician Of Omaha has a
very ingenious way of killing rats. The
rodent is caught in an ordinary oval
trap, the bottom of which is covered
with tin. One wire connected with a
dynamo is fastened to the tin lining OF
the trap, and another is thrust into the
prisoners cell. The well known pro,
pensity of a Gagged a to do battle as
serts itself, and he seizes the wire be.
tween his teeth. In doing so he makes
the mistake of his life. The circuit is com
pleted, his jaws close on the wires with q
death grip and without a squeak, and
almost without a culver he passes into
a state of eternal desuetude. -Electri.

Sioux CITY, Ia, June 23.-The vend-
ors of Original packages are organizing
for a legal fight against the city authori-
ties. There are twelve or fifteen Of these
package saloons. They have large rooms
in choice locations IN the heart of the CITY
extensively fitted up for public bars. The
liquor is sold to the customer in an IN
broken original package, containing one
or any number of drinks. Cork screws
are as plenty as toothpicks, and the Gus
toner draws his own cork. When these
package saloons we're opened an arrange
ment was made whereby a fine OF $50 per
month was levied upon each one, the pro
ceeds going into the city treasury. The
fine has been regularly paid for several
months. But in the the boot
logger and the hole-in-the-wall man have
swarmed in the alleys, cellars and out of
the way places. 1t is alleged that there
are over 100 ofthem. They pay no fine
or license fee. Neither do the police in
terfere with them Therefore the pack
age sellers kick. Phey say they are will
ing to pay $50 a month provided the
bootleggers are suppressed or caused to
pay the same fine, but not otherwise.
They are organized. have taken legal
counsel, and they claim that, as their
transactions are legal. they can defeat the
city authorities in the courts.

Tourists, emigrants and mariners find
that Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is a
medicinal safeguard against unhealthful
influences, upon which they can implicitly
rely, since it prevents the effects that an
unhealthy climate, vitisted atmosphere,
unaccustomed or unwholesome diet. bad
water, or other conditions uniavorable to
health, would otherwise produce. On
long voyages, or journeys by land in lati-
tudes adjacent to the equator, it is espec-
tally useful as a preventive of the fe
brile complaints and disorders of the
stomach, liver and bowels, which are apt
10 attack natives of the temperate zones
sojnurning or travelling in such regions,
and is an excellent protection against the
influence of extreme cold, sudden
changes of temperature, exposure to
damp or extreme fatigue. 1t not only
prevents intermittent and remittent fever
and other diseases of a malarial type, but
eradlcates them, a fact which has been
notorious for years past in North and
South America, Mexico. the West In.

CHICAGO, June 2l.-A large number
of worlds fair commissioners representing
various states have arrived in Chicago.
and to night in all the hotels worlds talr
matters are being very generally discussed
Among the Interesting conferences was
one between Joseph Hirst of Tampa, Fla.
and A S. Mercer of Cheyenne, Wyo.
Hurst had much to do with the allotment
of space at the centennial and almost en-
tire charge of the re cent Piedmont expo
sition at Atlanta. In talking OF the mat
ter of a site Mr.. Hirst said:
1T We can be convinced that the lake
front can be obtained legally and will re-
vert to Chicago as a park after the fair is
over, | Cont think there will be a dis
senting voice-this, however, providing
there is room enough"
There's the trouble" said Mercer.
II don't think we ought to open the doors
with less than 600 acres. Just look at
the number Of states demanding ten acres
each. s-Some of them propose to do won
derful things with that space. Utah pro
poses to reproduce Salt Lake and the
country before and after irrigation, with
an exhibition of the lrrigatinR system.
Colorado will reproduce mines and build a
mineral palace, California will make
wonderful exhibits, and so on
WE! i hey really mean to occupy all
the space the, risk for, the lake front will
certainly not be sufficient. y said Mr.. Hirst,
and am utterly opposed to dividing the
exhibition"

E%ARLvILLE, Ia, June ga tramp
with more thar the usual amount oil ''gall'
possessed by his species, did a very
peculiar piece OF work here this morning.
While the work gang OF the Milwaukee
road was eating breakfast at a boarding
house near the railroad track, a tramp
jumped into the cab of the locomotive
attached to the work train standing at the
depot, and opened the throttle wide. The
train pulled out with lightning speed and
although the railroad men saw it start
they could not overtake it. Ten minutes
later a freight train pulled in, the engine
was detached aud the crew started in pur-
suit of the stolen train. Just this side OF
Panama. seven miles west, the work train
was found standing on the track, but no
trace OF the thief. Steam was up in the
engine, but the tramp was evidently afraid
to run by the town, and deserted his stolen
property. The engineer expresses the
belief that the tramp must be an engineer.

St. Philips street, when a rifle, so as to
look like a pistol, was showed through the
window and irei within a few inches of

killed Instantly, with at least four fatal
wounds. The police at once pronounced
the murder a vendetta. one OF those mys-
ferrous assassination. which occur among
the Sicilian population of this city. The
men playing cards with Vltrano were
locked up as likely to be implicated in
some way. but not a particle OF evidence
could be obtained and the affair is cluuded
in mystery This is the second vendetta

C. q. McKibbon. Late Purchas-

Sued for the Recovery of Sixty
Thousand Dollars.
Contractors Allowed Excessive
Prices for Material,
The Agent Getting a Share of
the Profits.

optSAhA DAaBotSh "a LctutI.
OMAHA, June 23.-An immense sensa-
ton was created In railroad circles here
to-day when 1t became known that suit
had been begun by the Union Pacific
against @. Fl. McKibbon, late general pur-
chasing agent of the road, for the recovery
OF 500, 900 Of which he is eaid to have de-
frauded the company. The petition was
fled last Saturday night, but it was not
made public until to-day. InJanuary.l88
Mckibbon became purchasing agent for
the company, and it was his duty to pur
chase all supplies for the company.
These, the complainant alleges, should
have been purchased at fair market prices.
The petition charges that McKibbon, in
fragrant disregard of his duties and in
pursuance of a corrupt agreement with
the vendors of lumber and other material.
made contracts 33t per cent in excess of
the actual retail market prices. The pc
tition demands $50, 900 from McKibbou
and alleges that early in 1889, soon after
his appointment as purchasing agent. he
entered into a corrupt understanding with
G. H. Barnes X Co., lumberers of st.
Louis.
The petition carries with it an itenized
statement of McKibbon's dealings with
Barnes & Co. This statement shows that
from January. 1889, to June IL, 1890,
Barnes & Co. sold the Union Pacific lum-
Der and presented bills in the sum of
1920, l34.04. which, it is alleged, is s53.-
1873. Is more than lumber of this quality
could have been purchased for by the
company.
The petition sets forth that as the re-
suit of this alleged corrupt combination
the spoils we're divided between the con
tractor and the purchasing agent. A
representative of the Union Pacific states
that other suits will follow. This gentle
man asserted that McKlbbon's profits by
these rake-offs was at the very least
100000, and it might double that.
Attachments have been issued against
property that McKibbou was known to
possess; a sum Of money said to be about
$4,000. deposited in the First and
United States national banks: a new
house valued at sl2. 500 in course OF
erection on Low avenue; one lot at the
corner of Georgia avenue and Hickory
street. and some household furniture IN
Council Bluffs.
Since he lost his position as general
purchasing agent of the Union Pacific
road, many sensational stories have been
told about him. Men who sold supplies
to the company have openly asserted that
there was a bonanza in the purchasing
agency. After his departure j. 8. An
derson, assistant to President Adams, was
brought from Boston and installed in the
off Je with instructions to investigate mat
tiers. As a result some startling dsscov.
cries have been made there,
