Omaba Girl, who Follows him | to Hoboken, and then \ Marries him. | | Married Woman, who Steals “ $1,000 from her Husband and Hides it in her Chig- | non. where it is Found | Upon her Cap- | © tare. | In September, of last year, a well | dressed and avparently wealthy | gentleman, named E. Peperkorn, German by birth, a civil engi- neer by profession, and a ras- | in llii?; cal by nature, arrived city from Davenport, Towa. He had, or at least pretended to have, | business in various parts of the State, making his headquarters at Omaha. He became acquainted | with quite a number of people in this city, among them being Miss Louisa Harbs, a niece of Mr. F. Kumpf, the well known boot and shoe maker on Douglas street. He metherat Ft.Calhoun where she was | visiting,and continuing the acquain- | tance afterwards in Omaha, the girl | learned to love him, he of course having previously declared his boundless and undying love for her. Alas! how often are the brightest expectations of even the most san- guine dashed to the ground! Such indeed proved tobe the case with Louisa Harbs, who would persist in loving Peperkorn to distraction, notwithstanding the objections of | her relatives, who took a deep in- terest in her welfare. On accouni of this interference, Louisa ceased house of her uncle, Mr. Kumpf. In February Peperkorn went on visit to Europe, and returned in the middle of April to find his Lou- isa faithful as ever. Peperkorn, however, did not remain long in Omaha, but went to Hoboken, New Jersey. Three weeks ago, Louisa | Harbs packed her trunk, and went East, accompanied by Mrs. B—r, in whose house she had been em- ployed as a servant. Louisa, of course, went to Hoboken to meet her future husband, he having wr.t- ten for her to come eud fulfill the engagement existing between them. She was met on her arrival by Peperkorn, who took her to the | “and lady,” from Omaha. | At the Park Hotel, as we learn from the New York Herald, they life in & manner which showed a de- termined disposition to make them- selves supremely happy. After a few days orders were given by the chivalrous looking Peperkorn to make preparations for the celebra- tion of marriage ceremonics. was done, and religious character to the t; the matrimonial knot, the Rev. Mr. Bristow, pastor of the Protest Epis- copal Church, was invited to per- form the ceremony, which he did with the customary solemnity. All went merry with the newly married pair until June 18th, when Mr. Pep- erkorn absented hitaself. The next afternoon information reached ‘he police station that a Mr. Sherman, of Ann street, New York, had been abandonéd, and, what was perhaps worse, robbed of $1,000 by his wife Lena,and that she wasabout to leave for Europe in company with another husband. An officer hastened to the Hamburg Dock, and searched the steamer Westphalia, which was about to leave port. After long Iabor he found Mrs. Sherman, and a large quantity of baggage, which, on examination, was found to be Peperkorn’s, The vessel was then searched, but no Peperkorn was there. Mrs Sherman acknowledged that she was about to elope with him, but denied any knowledge of his whereabouts. In her chignon some of her husband’s jewelry was found secreted, and she had in her pos- session $750 out of the $1,000 missed by ber husbanl. The latter de- clined to proceed any farther against his spouse, and seemed very glad to have eaught her in the nick of time. Meanwhile Mrs. Peperkorn has returned to the private resi- dence of some personal friends in Washington street, Hoboken, and is awaiting further developments. <viguabistcry of Peperkorn stc | and Thorn. her visits, about January 1st, to the | Park Hotel, snd registered himself CITY COUNCIL.

SHOOTING AFFRAY. Shot by a Saloon Keeper. A Lively Duel Setween the two Men. From a telegram recelved in this city yesterday we learn the par- ticulars of a probable fatal shooting affray which occurred at Julesburg, on the Union Pacific railroad Tues- day, between W. A. Safford, operator at thestation, and C. C. Clifton, a keeper of a low groggery. It appears that a few days ago Clifton aceused Safford of taking his pocket knife, and threatened to shoot him, pulling a revolver on him, but without shooting. ‘Tuesday afternoon Safford went over to Clifton’s saloon to ‘“make up” with him, but failirg to do so, high words ensued between the two men, when Safford pulled his revolver, knowing that Clifton had one, and thathe had threatened to shoot him. Clifton jerked out his revolver, and without a moment’s hesita- tion, fired the first shot, which took effect in Safford’s breast. A lively exchange of shots followed, but the first was the only one that hit the mark. Safford was taken to Sidney on the east-bound - train, and there re- ceived medical attendance. The wound is pronounced fatal, and Saf- ford is now lying at the point of death. Clifton retreated to his house, and when the citizens attempted to take him, he kept blazing away at them, taking care not no hit any one. He thus kept them at bay till late at night, ¥ken M. F. Leach, the sta- tion agent, had the courage to cap- ture him single-handed, and take him, Wednesdsy moming, to Sidney, where he is now locked up.
