How Mr.. Marion Once Resisted the
Nh. 8 Military: 5-z, :
Omaha, Neb., April 2S.-In 1885,, when
J. Sterling Morton. was writing editorials
for the Nebraska City Daily News at $50
month, he often got the paper into
hot water. L..
1t was about this time that General
Lane had headquarters at Nebraska City,
and was accused of fraudulently draw
ing "aid'' from the "Massa chusetts Aid
Society" for the alleged development Of
Nebraska and Kansas resources. Morton,
in scathing leader, denounced Lane and
his scheme. spoke of it as robbery and
of the men as set of rag-a- mullins
and "offscourings OF creation
The paper had scarcely been printed
before number Of Lanes soldiers be-
sieged the office and demanded the body
of the editor. The latter, however, had
gone out of the back door for re enforce
ments and when he returned the army
had evacuated ssa.A - :
i. The doughty editor thereupon sent a
written challenge to mortal combat to
General Lane and his entire army, and
stating that when attacked by the sol
diers he had been unarmed, but since then
had secured arms and would use them on
any of Lanes men who came within
shooting distance of the News office.
General Lane wisely declined to accept
such sweeping challenge and the trouble
soon passed away.

where in the tobacco-raising section
of Wisconsin man-killing elephant
is at large. Farmers are finding
traces if the pachyderm in uprooted
saplings, smashed sidewalks and the
tracks through the fields, but neither
the farmers nor the searchers for the
huge beast have as yet found the ele-
phant. Last night posse of farmers
was trailing the elephant in hopes of
catching him asleep.
The animal belongs to George w.

While experimenting the construc-
ton Of the machine on board the boat
from which it will be operated, Stecker
explained the mechanism of the af-
fair. To all intents and purposes it is

weighs six tons out of the water,
suspended on steel cables, it can be
carried about like a great lantern over
the sea bottom. Inside the diver is
supplied with air through a wire
wrapped tube, and is all the while in
communication with the surface. By

Legislation For It
Begun
ByAuthorizing Prepara

Railroad Companies to Bear Hall

An ordinance authorizing the prep
aration of plans for viaduct on Mill
st. at the railway crossing was passed
by Council Monday night.
The plans will be prepared upon a
cost basis of 100000, and half the ex-
pense of construction will be borne by
the railroad companies. 1t is the in
tention also to prepare the plans so they
will conform to straight lines with the
street. The c., A. & G. had suggested
a plan whereby part of Mill st. would
be vacated, and the viaduct cross the
tracks diagonally.
An effort will be made to push for
ward the project as rapidly as possible
as the officials of the city and railroad
companies seem to be ready to enter
into a final agreement upon the bear
ing Of the expense of construction.

NEW STREETS.
Council viii Be Slow
to Accept Them.
Plats For Allotments Held Up
Monday Night.

Hereafter, Council will go slow in
the matter of accepting plats of new
allotments. This is largely the result
of a warning sounded by Mr.. Shook,
who stated that in large number Of
cases where new streets We're accepted,
the city was thrown into the expense of
helping to take care of them, and that
not infrequently the money and labor
expended by the city worked only to
the benefit and profit Of the owner of
the allotment.
Mr.. Gauthier is also in favor Of in
vestigating the allotments very care
fully before their plats are accepted,
and he said So The other Councilmen
fell in with the idea, too, for the mo-
ton Of Mr.. Shook was promptly car
ried.
And the determination to go slow
was shown at once. The plat Of the
Park allotment--the old Hall fair
grounds-was held up, and so was the
plat Of Orchard Court Both were re-
ferred to the Street committee.
