industry and frugality they have &C

parties toward each other has not at

WAS in OMAHA.
Pat Grove Seen There Night
Before the Abduction.
Said He Would Be Heard From Soon but
Has Completely Disappeared
From View.

Omaha, Dec. 27.-It is known that
Pat Grove was seen in South Omaha
nearly twenty hours before the abduc-
tion of Eddie Cudahy. On Monday
night, Dec II, we'll known citizen
of South Omaha conversed with him
for nearly an hour. Pat was in re-
miniscent mood and recalled some of
the chief adventures of his picturesque
career. Just before they parted Pat
was questioned concerning himself and
his plans and replied:
"Oh, I'have nothing big on; you IL
hear from me soon. -
Hitherto Pat has been brought no
closer to the abduction than the Sat-
urday night preceding that event. To
reporter for the World Herald Mrs.
Grove admitted her husband was in
South Omaha on Saturday. The man
who saw him on Monday night states
that he has withheld this information,
fearing that it might lead to his own
per sonal discomfort or even injury.
The local habitation of Pat Grove
while in this vicinity has been more
or less of a mystery. He was frequent
ly seen in Omaha and South Omaha,
and those who knew him wondered
where he made his home, little know
ing that Pat had turned a dairyman
and was engaged in the innocent task
of making butter and "hay'' at the
same time. His employees were none
other than his own brother-in-law, a
former street Car conductor and a
saloonkeeper, who had his place of
business on Harvey street before he
took to dairying. This man is now
engaged in the dairy business at Al
bright, just below South Omaha.
Grove continued at the dairy until
shortly before the Cudahy abduction.
He was not seen often in South
Omaha until just a few days before
the kidnapping. and the last time was
late Monday night, Dec. II.

MEXICAN COURTESY.
People Along the Rio Grande Are
Very Polite ia Their In
tercOurAe.

The Mexicans observe many little
courteses that an American rarely
thinks about, writes j. p. Cranke in
Woman's Home Companion. For in
stance, two gentlemen meeting on the
street grayely salute each other by
raising their hats. AS they invariably
extend this same salutation to their
American acquaintances the latter
must respond in kind, and thus the hab-
it is formed. 1t is often laughable to
see two Americans meet, and with
grave dignity doff their hats through
thu force of habit acquired in their in
tercourse with Mexicans, and then OBJ
serve the expression Of their faces as
they realize what they have done. The
only passport to the best society is the
culture and character Of gentleman.
If a man is not a gentleman, were he
millionaire, he could never penetrate
that charmed inner circle that obtains
In every border town. The Mexicans
are equally exclusive. A letter of in
PRODUCTION from one side of the river to
the other will, however, give stranger
instant recognition socially. They are
exceedingly careful about these intro
ductions, and man must be well
known to somebody of Importance be-
fore he can secure one. 1t is a rule in
Mexico that the one who introduces a /
stranger in this way is responsible even
for his bills. The American habit of
writing everybody a letter of recon-
mendation does not, therefore, prevail
here. But when one does get introduced
the Mexicans never weary in showing
courtesies. To the Mexican your friend
is the same as yourself and should have
equal attention.

PYTHON ABOARD SHIP.
Lively Experience of Crew ON a
British steamer En- Route
from Hayti.

The British steamer Saltram, Capt.
Owen, which arrived at this port lately
from Port de Paix, Hayti, loaded with
logwood, passed through remarkable
thrilling experience on the way, saws
the Philadelphia Inquirer. On the
third day OF the outward voyage John
Banks, one of the sailors, noticed a
peculiar rattling in the neighborhood
of the partition between the hold and
the forecastle. He called the attention
Of his comrades to it, and, the noise
continuing, the matter was reported to
the first mate, who ordered an investi-
cation to be made. The carpenter was
summoned and portion of the wood
work hastily removed, when, to their
horror and dismay, the crew perceived
the head of python gradually pro-
trude itself.
A hasty council of war was at once
held by Capt Owen and it was resolved
to employ drastic means to effect the
reptiles destruction. The officers or
dered all guns laid aside, for fear the
men in their excitement should iniure
one another rather than the snake, and
then commanded the crew to oattack the
reptile with marling spikes and clubs.
After battle lasting quarter Of an
hour lucky blow with a spike trans
fixed the beasts head, and the skin
being too mangled for preservation, the
serpent was forthwith given watery
grave.

Vinita is again confronted with
a dangerous and expensive con-
dition. The responsibility of deal
ing with the smallpox in the coun-
try southeast of US must be met
heroically and promptly. 1t should
be managed with as little expense
consistent with the gravity of the
situation as possible. We believe
the primary object should be to
stamp out the disease wherever
found and to effectually prevent
its spreading. The first step
should be to rigidly quarantine
and isolate every individual who
has been exposed, and to enforce
general vaccination of the people
throughout the country. 1t can be
effectually kept out of Vinita if
prompt measures are adopted, and
every citizen of the town and ad-
AGENT country should act in accord
with the authorities in dealing
with the contagion. The unavoid-
able expense will necessarily be
heavy blow upon the city but
there is no way of dodging the is
sue, and the minimum of expendi-
ture in every detail should he in /
sisted upon.
