Notes.

BEE. In darkened room in a small house
at Second and j streets today lies the
crushed and manglcd remains of little Paul
Schultz. Paul was aged about nine years,
and yesterday afternoon left school at the
accustomed hour for his home, accompanied
by several companions. When they reached
the Burlington crossing at Fourth and
streets, they found 1t blocked by the switch
ing train, consisting of three cars and an
engine. The boys were playfully endcavor-
ing to find out who would reach home first,
and young Paul thought TO get ahead OF them
by running underneath the cars. He started
to crawl under when the train started. The
wheels did not catch him. but his body was
caught by the brake beams and he was rolled
and crushed for Il short distance, when the
frantic cries of his playmates caused the en-
gineer to halt the train. Tho crushed little
body was tenderly detached from the beams,
around which his clothing was tightly
wound, and he was taken TO his home only
few blocks away. He was still breathing,
although terribly crushed, and doctors We're
quickly summoned He lived until $50
O'Clock this morning, when death came to re-
lief. The accident happened about ten min
utes after O'Clock, and no blame appears to
rest on the trainmen.
Willie Kane, the drug clerk and thief who
has been under arrest on the charge of lar
ceny as pailee Of number of guns belong.
ing to divers hardware merchants, was ar
raigned before Judge Stewart today on the
charge of incorrigibility. 1t is pro bable
that he will be sent to the reform school.

broiled in a quarrel at Benkleman, and shots

| tiary. His Texas friends had not forgotten
him, and had been quietly at work ever since

BOUND TO KILL suEEDY.
The murderous attempt on Mr.. John
| Sheedys life by some would-be assassin hid
near the gate, is not the first attempt to kill
| that gentleman. Over year ago another at
| tempt was made to murder Mr. Sheedy, the
| assassin that time using dagger and lniict-
| ing several wounds that came very near
| proving fatal. No reason can be assigned for
| these assaults except that the gambling den
| on Tenth and p streets is in Sheedy's build
| ing and that certain fellows who 'droppedn
| large rolls of money there were seeking re-
| venge in blood.

| had run away with his sister The couple
| mad registered at the Morton hotel, but had
| gone to Auburn before Mansfield arrived. He
| told the reporters there that his sister had
! worked at the house of Captain BiilingSley in
this city, and that Hart had driven her to the
| pententary station, where they took the
| train for Nebraska City.
Captain Billingsley says that the article is
| untrue in many respects. That the man gave
him the name Of Walker. His sister had
worked at the captains house for a few
| weeks, and when she was i'll DR.. Hart had
| called to prescribe for her. The same day n
| hack came to his house and took the girl
away. This was three weeks ago, and it was
not until last Friday that the brother called
on him, telling him he had recognized the
| girls picture in photograph gallery as his
sister, whom he had not seen for years.
| Mansfield or Walker told the Nebraska
| City people that he had had Hart arrested,
but this is news to the police here.
