Burke,s Famou. Dagger.

Apropos of Lord Rosebery's visit tor
Beaconsfield to unven a memorial to
Burke, a correspondent writes: Sir
Edward Lawson has at his house, HALL
Barn, at Beaconsfeld, some very inter.
esting relics of Burke, among them the
identical dagger which Burke flung ON
the floor Of the House Of Commons in
his speech on the second reading Of the
aliens bill on the 28th of December.
1892, to testify his adherence of the.
principles Of the French revolution. 1t
is a mere toy dagger made of wood. 1t
was sent from France to manufactur-
er at Birmingham with an order for a
large number to be made like it, and
Burke had only received it the same
day from Sir James Bland Burgess on
his way down to the House. The cele
brated dagger scene was like many
other historic episodes in the House II
COMMONS, wholly unprecedented.

Eyes, there are funny things going on
down the bay and soon they Will real

This was the remark of a coaster VINO
happened to drop into j. FL. Blake's on
Widgery's wharf. The remark was
nothing surprising. Yesterday after
noon Captain Rickett, who commands
one Of the oddest-looking three-masted
fisherman's boats that sets sail from
this port, and right here it can be said
that he is among the smartest of the
captains, poked the nose of his craft
right round Commercial wharf. As he.
did so, some one from Henry Sargent's
fish store on Commercial wharf, called
out in that familiar style known to-
every traveller along the water front.
What you got, captain?''
wait and see," came the reply and
in his impotence he went to the lower
deck and calling to his assistance his
crew Of five men, held up a swindle-
tail shark, which, as matter of fact, he
had captured near Drunkard Ledge,
just about eight miles from the Cape
lights.
The captain was called to explain
how he got the fish, but he was re-
luctant to say much until the eager OBJ
servers had better opportunity to see
his catch and then, opening up in q;
very graphic way, said: Eve were
sailing along very quietly with nothing
to cause ripple on the smooth sur
face of what had been a smooth sea,
when some one at the lookout called
out, "A whale aheadv and then came a
cry: Tt may be the sea serpent, Of
which we have heard so much.'"
AS they drew nearer, tail Topped,
in the air and the water flew up as il
under the influence of a submarine
mine, and the captain seeing danger
called out every man to the ropes.
To capture the fish was the next
thing in order and there happened to-
be on board man who had thrown
the lasso over many a wild Western
broncho, and he was the man who did
the trick.
The man gathered up his rope, sur

ropes, and as one described it to a re-

Punished insanity with Contempt.

Punished Insanity with Contempt.
Stories about remarkable ruling of
trial courts are the fashion just now
since the military gentlemen at Rem
mes, France, have set the example for
picturesque things of this kind. Two
or three travelling men were sitting
in the lobby of the Great Northern
talking the thing over, when the law
yer came along, and he told them this:
There is an examining magistrate in
South Omaha, whose duty it is to see If
people accused of insanity are really
mentally unbalanced. Not long ago he
came down to his Office on bicycle
and opened court without having re-
moved his knickerbockers and gaudy
stockings. A young man was brought
up from the dollhouse, where he had
been protesting for twelve hours that
he was the only really sane man in the
State of Nebraska. The lawyers and
the court attendants asked him a few
questions. Usually these are very di-
rect The patient is asked pointedly it
he considers himself sane. That was
the case here.
'Well,'' said the youth, Il am not
crazy enough to ride bicycle between
two trolley cars when they are passing
in opposite directions"
The court took that as reflection on
him-as something personal and scan
dalous. 1t affected him as a man and
as rider, out it was direct assault on
the dignity of courts as we'll And he
sent the patient to the detention hos
pital for contempt of court.
This is probably the only thing the
court-marial at Rennes did not think of
doing.-Chicago Post.

GOES OVER UNTIL MONDAY
Partial Hearing is Had in the South Omaha
Contempt Case,
IMPORTANT WITNESS FOR STATE is ABSENT
Testimony Adduccd that Ed Johnston
who Was Eicc,cd from the Eicc-
tion Booth, Did Not Create
Any Disturbance.

Mayor Ensor, Chief OF Police Carroll and
Officers Morrsey and Hyock of South omaha
were before Judge Fawcett yesterday to
plead that they were not guilty of contempt
Of court in throwing Ed. Johnston out OF the
registration booth in the Fourth ward on
April /, after they had been enjoined by the
court from interfering, The evidence occu-
pied oil the forenoon and the case was
finally adjourned to next Monday night on
account Of the absence of one OF the i'm
portant witnesses for the state.
The testimony was practically a repetition
of the facts as they were published at the
time the controversy occurred. The only
new feature was the proof that it was Cap
tain Allie and not officer Morrisey who as
sisted to eject Johnston from the booth, and
that the information was defective in that
respect. Deputy Sheriff Grebe, Registrars
o. L. Bruce and Thomas Fitzgerald and Ed.
Johnston were put on the stand for the
state. Their testimony showed that the re-
straining order was served by Deputy Grebe
and that Captain Allie and officer Hyock
subsequently elected Johnston and arrested
him for an alleged disturbance of the peace
with the remark that "the sheriff can be
d-d, as Ed. Johnston is not running
South Omaha"
The registrars testified that Johnston
Showed them an order from Edward Doyle
member of the city central committee from
the Fourth ward, by which he, Johnston
was designated as official challenger. They
also testified that Johnston created no dis
turbance in the booth at any time.

Counterfeit Iinunrs

John w. Battin, as a master in chancery, Il
hearing the case of James Hennessy against
half dozen druggists and a like number
OF saloon keepers of the city. In behalf of
the company of which he is a member he
contends that the defendants are selling
liquors that are counterfets of those which
his firm manufactures and sells The petit
tion alleges that at some point in the
United States there is a concern that is put
ting out an article of brandy that is con
tained in bottles that are similar to those
which his firm uses, that the label is sub
stantially the same, but that the goods are
of an inferior quality. He further alleges
that this is not only being done in Omaha,
but that the fraud is being practced all
over the United States
Examiner Battin will not pass upon the
case. He will simply take the testimony and
transmit 1t to the United States court
where 1t will be examined II 1t is found
that the petitioner has made a case then
in that event he will bring damage suits
charging infringement upon his trade mark
which, he says, is one of the things that
constitutes his stock in trade
