NEW YORK DAY AT OMAHA.

Senator Warner Miller presided over
the exercises at the auditorium, where
Chauncey NJ. Depew was the principal

MIR. Depew spoke OF the far-reaching
benefits the nation received from the
worlds fair. and said;
"The great benefits which the worlds

States in acquisition from foreign coun-

Omaha is to vastly enhance in bringing
nearer together in better understanding
of each other the different sections of our
own country.
New York has been too content with
being the Empire state and with having
its chief city the metropolis of the CONT
nent; the west, too eager for empire indie
pendence of the east; the south, living
too much upon its traditions and in its
past, and the Pacific slope, resting too Sc
curely upon its boundless possibilities and
great expectations. The war with Spain
has superbly restored the sentiment of
nationality and eliminated sectional jeal-
ouses.

ARUN AMUCK AT TAMPA.
Infatuated Soldier Subdued With
Difficulty.

TAMPA, FLA, June 17.-Had It not
been for the hasty interference Of mem
bers of Company d. Second Georgia Regi-
ment, a private and sergeant would
have met a violent death this afternoon
at the hands Of Private Walter Stewart.
of Atlanta Stewart and another private
named Elliott engaged in a dispute over
a canteen check worth 5 cents. They
agreed to go to the bay shore and fight
It out, but as Elliott walked unsuspect-
ingly away Stewart raised a gun with a
bayonet and charged towards Elliott,
whose back was turned. A rush was
made toward the Infatuated man, and
fortunately he was tripped. In falling
his gun flew from his hands and was
secured by one of the crowd, This gave
impetus TO Stewards wrath. and with
another gun he made a second charge.
This was checked by the sergeant Of his
company toward whom his anger was
turned. With a keen, bright blade
raised aloft he charged at the sergeant.
For a moment an awful fate seemed in
eyitable to the sergeant. and serious IN
Jury threatened those who interfered be-
tween the flying pair. But a man from
behind caught the uplifted weapon and
wrenched 1t from Stewards hands.
Scarcely ndd tnlS Deen zone WneH Sle"dl
espied a Ratchet lying in the tent, and
again gave chase to the sergeant, who
ran through the crowd, knocking men
over and lodging to escape his Infatuated
pursuer. One man was struck on the
leg below the knee, making a painful
bruise. Fortunately, he was wearing
heavy leggins.
Two hundred men had By this time
gathered in the camp street. and Stewart
was overcome, after much kicking, biting,
hitting, and scratching. During the dis
turbance, e. S. Skipper, a friend of
Stewards, was drawn into the row, and
was thrown into a ditch with several men
on top of him. When he emerged his
face was bloody and he was cursing fear
fully. Both men were promptly taken
to the guard-house, and a court-martial
is talked of in Stewards case. He was
released only last night from the guard
house, where he had served twelve days
at hard labor.
The donation of 81. 900 TO the Sixty-ninth

STRANGE MORNING BLOSSOM.
Sergeant Cosby and Two Braves
See a Night-BIoOming Cereus.

"My boys" said Sergeant Cosby to his
men, officers Wren and Wilkinson, there
is a policy-shop thriving out in the So
ciety part of Jackson Ward; we must
break it up"
The Sergeant of mountainous corpo-
rosity made this declaration to his braves
early Thursday morning. At O'Clock
an hour later-all three gallants stood
outside the policy-dive at Second and
Duval streets at attention.
Wilkinson, you guard that end; they
are sleeping up there" pointing to the
second-story window, "and I'll take care
of the 'front.'" said the Sergeant, while
you, Tom, can go in and thresh the
hornets out of their nest"
Thump, thump, went Mr.. Wren up the
steps. Bang, crash, went his foot against
the door 1t opened, as if that foot had
been the "open sesame" and the door
had been the entrance 10 the robbers
cave.
But the "crash" Of the door had not
died away on the mapping morning air
when there came a still greater, which
made Sergeant Cosby, who was standing
directly under the window, feel like the
yankees were coming
The sash and windowglass opened like
the bursting of some gigantic flower, ano
a woolly head appeared in the centre oil
the blossom as it's heart.
The picture was a rare one, II not 50
beautiful, and those who beheld 1t have
Mr.. Wren to thank for its continuance sc
long as il did. Just as the negro was
about to clear the window altogether
and the flower to lose its heart, the
brave grabbed him by the heel and stop
ped his flight
The scene changed. Instead of flower
with a black heart. there was great
black negro swinging from second-story
window, head down, with his heel ano
the policeman on the inside. Let him
drop: let him drop; Ill get him" called
the Sergeant from below; but Mr.. Wren
held on to his end until the Sergeant anc
Brave Wilkinson came TO his aid. anc
together they drew the captive in out
of the damp and chilling air. Mr.. wren
said he would have obeyed his superior
officer, and let the negro drop, but ne
knew the pavement all along there would
have TO be laid over again soon after
wards, so he concluded 10 save the city
that expense.
