three charges at the present term Of court.
TWO indictments were returned against
Jack Shields. one on the charge of uttering
forged instrument and the other on the
charge OF robbing Mike Fox Of $50. In the
first case Shields is charged with assisting
man giving the name of 7. w. Burnes in
passing forged check on r. A. Filter,
saloonkeeper. The check bore the forged
signature of Max Mohn, proprietor of the
Creston house, and 1t was on Shields repre-
sentations that 1t was good that Filter was
induced to cash 1t. 1t Is charged that
Burnes, who so far has evaded arrest, gave
Shields dollar for his share in the trans
action. In the other case it is charged that
Shields, on October 2S, followed Mike Fox,
a farmer of Hardin township, in back room
in Coyles saloon on lower Broadway and
held him up for $780, deliberately taking the
money out of Fox's pocket. Shields made his
escape from the saloon by the back door AMI

Commences Injunction Proceedings.
NJ. Il. Brinn, the representative Of the New
York Cloak and Suit company. commenced
injunction proceedings in the district court
yesterday to restrain the city from interfer-
ing with or molesting him or the members
of the firm in their business. These proceed
ings were brought by Brnn as result of
the city authorities attempting to enforce
the ordinance providing for the payment of
license of SIS per day by tran
sient merchants. The New York
Cloak and Suit company for sew
eral days past has been selling what
1t claimed was sample line of women's
garments in store room at the Grand
hotel. The first two days it's representative
paid the license but declined to keep on
paying after that. He was twice arrested for
refusing to take out license, but check
mated the officials for the timebeing yes
terday by securing temporary Injunction
from Judge Green of the district court.
In his application for the restraining order
Brinn sets up that the firm is about to move
to permanent store on Broadway and pro-
poses to continue here indefinitely He al
leges in his petition that the city officials are
prejudiced by the retail merchants of the
city and that the license is not a license,
but prohibitive tax. At the city hall yes
terday 1t was said the injunction suit would
be fought to the bitter end and every effort
made to enforce the provisions Of the ordi-
nance.

ANOTHER LINE TO MANAWA
Old Motor Company Announces that it Will
Build to the Lake.
TO FOLLOW SHORTEST POSSIBLE ROUTE
Extensive improvements Will he
Made ut the Resort and Through
Cars VIII BE Run from
Omaha.
TO FOLLOW SHORTEST POSSIBLE RoUT

| General Manager Dimmock OF the Omaha &
Council Bluffs Railway and Bridge company
announced officially yesterday that his COM
pany would at once extend its line to Lake
Manawa. Reports as to the intention OF the
motor company to build to the lake have
| been in circulation for some time, but this
! is the first official statement on the subject.
Manager Dimmock does not say just what
| route his company will select to reach the
lake, but says 1t will be certainly one as di-
rect as possible, probably an extension of
the line Of Main street, which at present
ends at the Rock Island depot. This, Mr..
pimmock states, will mean the operation of
through cars from Omaha direct to the lake,
enabling the company to handle all Omaha
traffic with the least possible delay.
Manager Dimmock, speaking for the COM
pany, states further that it is its intention
to spend large sum of money on a pavilion
and other structures at the lake and lose
no opportunity to make this resort the best
place of amusement in this section OF the
country. Just what effect this move on the
part Of the old company will have on the
future operations of the new company is not
certain, but Mr. Dimmock Gays his company
intends to push its extension without the
less of a day, regardless of any move the
other company may make.
AS an evidence of the improvement gen.
orally contemplated along the entire system,
the old company yesterday placed in service
eight additional trains between this city and
Omaha during the hours of heavy travel be-
tween and p m. In future no train will
be stopped after anything like a load has
been secured but will be run through with
out halt except to let passengers off. The
Issued a hot
will appeal strongly to certain class OF the
company's patrons. Henceforth only smok-
ers will be allowed to occupy the rear plat
form and passengers not smoking will be re-
qured to go inside the car. This rule, the
company Gays, is to be strictly enforced
Charles r. Hannah OF the new company,
when told that the old company had officially
declared it's intention of building to the lake,
said he had nothing to say at present, but
would make statement in the course of
day or so.

A CLERICAL BLATHERSKITE.

Rev. DIR. Edwin Schell has been
shelled out Of his snug berth. He was
secretary of the Northern Methodist
Church's Epworth League, and made a
very foolish speech, not cor
now, however, among the reverend
clergy" of saying that the Gospel of
Gunpowder should be carried to Ma
Mia. A rotten egg. He is even ac-
cused of worse offenses. Not strange.
What is that about descensus averni?
1t is such acknowledgements and
blatherskites-who bring reproach upon
the ministry to which they cling for
bread while d~isgracing it. Schell is not
the only Gospeller who believes in
Gunpowder as a potent ally of the
glorious gospel of the Son of God.
Butler, not Marion, but the man of
sense, Samuel by name, who writ that
funny and very sensible book "Hudi-
bras" who has been dead over two
hundred years and left no descendants

Pennsylvania seems to be honey
combed with corruption. But it can
hardly be "a to be a new thing. With
such a ruler and United States Sena-
tor as Quay how can it be otherwise
in hat great state than corrupt. The
state papers are talking out in meet
ing and it looks ugly in that state so
rich and so prosperous and SO favored
be republican congresses giving them
great bounties out of the pockets of the
people. The Pittsburg Dispatch has
this as to the situation:
"The apathy of the Pennsylvania Cit
izen, busy with his private affairs, has
given great opportunity to the profess
Siona1 politicians to work their Will,
but the Philadelphia exposures may
Gus him to a better n of his
duty. 1t is bad enough when half of
the voters remain away from h polls,
but if the votes of the other half are to
be nullified by repeating and ballot
box stuffing, that condition is infinitely
worse.
1.-The worst aspect of the Philadel-
phia exposures is the testimony that
members of the legislature, h source
of all law, rave been engaged in vio-
lating the law-poisoning the fountain
at it's ource."
That reminds us of the vicious times
of carpet-bag-negro rule in North Car
DINA when. corruption and stealing
flowed as a river.

THE KILLED AND WOUNDED.

Recently the New York Evening Post
had an article on the foot ball at Yale
University. We intended to copy and
comment blu. the paper disappeared.
As we recall it the game was not found
conducive 70 Improvement in the scEo-
lastic standing of the kichers. Bat
our recollection of what we hastily
glanced at intending to use later is too
imperfect to discuss. We note that
the team of the Episcopal University
of n South at Sewanee, like some
other southern universities, is making
a brilliant record in higher education.
It's team has returne dhome after trav-
cling $500 miles. OF course during the
prolonged absence the books were dill
gently studied. 1t is pleasant to record
progress. A friend in the city ssads
us this clipping from a newspaper that
is illumining:
During the past baseball cas- in
the United States, seven u men
have been killed, eleven seriously in
jured, and many others less seriously.
Considering the numbers engaged in
the game, this list of casualties, which
is necessarily very far from complete,
is as great in proportion to the mum
bers engaged as in an ordinary battle"
We had not the slightest idea OF
such results, such serious casualties.
We believe that the injured is more
than reported. 1t was given out from
the colleges that the game had been so
changed and modified and civilized that
there was but little serious danger at
tending now. The greatest mortality
for one year reported by the London
Lancet was nine killed, and hat was
three or four years ago. 1t is marvel
lous how popular brutai games are.

o Carl Schurz is a very able man
beyond doubt. He is a republican and
gold bug. He wants Bryan dropped.
But what has he got to do with that?
He is no democrat, n should not con-
ecrn himself with either the democratic
nominees or their platform. General
Grant did not seek advice of the south
as to how he would conduct campaigns.
Let the democrats alone Mr.. SchurZ,
for they will not consult your tribe as
to nominees n platform. It is no
more ridiculous however in Schurz to
be worrying himself over what the
democrats should do or may do, than
it is for boilers who helped to elect Nc
Kinley to be trying to shape the course
of the democracy in 1900.

HOME FOLKS.

The files of the Messenger show that
from the beginning of Oh. Duckry's
contest for the seat of Hon. John D.
Bellamy in the next congress-, that
it commended hat a corrupt republic
can house would unseat him if
they thought the exegences ap-
pealed to the vicious and mean side of
their character. They have shown
themselves in the past without all
sense of justice and honor when a con-
test for a democrats seat appeared to
them to be important enough to GUST
him. Unless the new house shall urn
it's back upon the record of it's party
Mr.. Bellamy will be displaced. If any
mar in North Carolina was ever fairly
elected it is Mr.. Bellamy. Dockery is
certainly not elected and it is a huge lie
to say he was. AS to the other contest
ant, Pearson, the political limberjack,
he nay have more to stand on as the
vote was something close. AS we be-
lieve that Mr.. Crawford was legally
elected we hope he will not be displaced
for the perennial office-hunter.

the president, Mr.. E. K. Graham, and
h subject for discussion was The

Whitehead Kluttz.
Then the meeting was thrown open
for discussion of the relative merits of
each side. The facts were presented
in a free way and were given only that
h truth may be known of the matter.
The club is in no way a debating
body, but purports only to discuss
matters for the advancement of the
knowledge Of any who care to keep up
on the living questions Of the day.
Thursday night in the Philanthropic
hall, the seventh annual int~er-society
debate, between the Dialectic and Phi
lanthropic literary societies, was held.
The question discussed was:

MesSrs. D.. p. Stern and J.. E. Avent.
The Dis championed the other side and
their debaters were Messrs. r. r. Will

The Raleigh Post shows industry in
making the elaborate presentation Of
prosperity in North Carolina. 1t pub
fishes a list-and a long n it is-of
the interpretations made for the last
two years, and the showing is one to be
proud of, for there is a striking increase
in both the number and the amount
of the capital invested. In five years
the increase is over one hundred per
cent. AS might be anticipated cotton
manufacturing leads and yet there are
many other industries developed that
give variety to the picture of prosperi-
ity. While there Ia be a disposition

The Messenger promptly expressed
it's disapproval of Admiral Dewey's
course in accepting a house, and cited
at the time by way Of contrast, the
independent, self-respecting conduct Of
Generals Wade Hampton and John B.
Gordon. when friends preferred to re-
build their burned homes. They de-
clined promptly and peremptorily like
men. When Dewey so unwisely got
himself into trouble by giving away
his home, the Messenger hardly re-
ferred to it. He had a right to do as he
did, but his judgment and taste were
bad. And now the friends of Schley
are laboring to make him too receive a
gift of a house. Let it alone, but If he
takes it we hope he will not transfer.
General Grant took every thing the
idolatrous north gave him from a bull
pup up, and very little censure, if any,
fell to his lot.
