A Des Moines Woman Chooses Poieon Rather Than Meet Her Husband. Her Attempt at Suicide Thwarted. A young man from Des Moines, an employe of a wholesale house there, was In this city Wednesday in search of a recreant wife, He sought the assistance of Officer Sid Sterling, and the two pursued the hunt on the quiet. The husband insisted that all he wanted of the woman was to inter- view her, as he had no desire to live with her any longer, she having preved untrue to him. As he, with the officer, was walking along Broad- way near the Ogden house, he was surprised to see his wife riding alorg ina buggy with a young man. He made a rush with the officer to stop the team, but the woman gave her oompanion warning, and with a erack of the whip he started the team into almost a run, and the pair escaped. Knowing that they were watched, tke woman and her male companion kept cut of the way, and when they had finished their anxious ride, they stopped the buggy on a bncz street, and the woman alighted, thinking she micht succeed in walk- to some place of hiding without being noticed. She had been stopping at a bouse of ill-fame, but imtelrfcl going there she proceeded to another house where she was acquainted and re- mained there until late in the eve- niug. She then ‘started for her regu- lar lw?ing place, and on the way dropped iuto & drug store and pur- chased & vial of laudanum. The dru clerk, having his suspicions lmnleg that siie had bought the poison for no good purpose, followed her. On ar- riving at her destination and entering the house she caught a glimpse of the star of the oficer who was waiting for her there, and thinking that she was to be arrested, made a break for her room and slamming the door, locked and bolted ft. Just then the drug clerk entered, and seeing the commo- tion, yelled out that the woman had some polson, The landlady screamed for ‘them to smash down the door and keep her from taking it and Officer Sterling hurriodly kioked it in, and just 1n time, as the woman bad the vial to her lips, As soon as she could be quieted down enough to listen to reason, she was informed by the officer that her husband wantc 1 simply to see her to talk over some matters with her, and that no harm been martied but a few weeks. - The couple were ascompanicd by the woman’s brother and a friend who, it is reported, was formerly a suitor ot the bride, but had been unsuccessful in his suit. They located on a farm in the southern part of Cass county, where they resided at the time of the disaster, The brother and friend were the first to discover the body. They ¢laim that they entered the barn and dis- covered him in the act of cutting his throat; they rushed toward him to wrest the knife from him, when he drew it across his throat, cutting it from ear to ear. The brother claims that he grasped the knife and stuck it into a post near by, and afterwards took it out and threw it into the hay where 1t was afterwards found; for ths act he gives no satisfactory reason. A coroner’s inquest was held on the body and the report that was given by Dr, Hempstead was that the wound was never made by one stroke of the knife, but that two different gashes had been made, which nearly severed the head from the body. The gashes were made by eumngbfifmm right to left, which it would qnite impos- sible for the vietim to do, he being a right handed man. Blood was found in diffsrent parts of the stable and none was on the face or front of the coat, which refuted the state. ment that the body was found lying on the face. Buspicion rests on the brother, wife and friend of the de- ceased, It has been proven that their married life has not been of the pleasantest character, and that a feel- ing of jealousy has existed between the husband and former suitor. The citizens of Griswold are greatly e: cited over the affair, and if the crime is proven againat the suspicioned it would come from the interyiew. The husband was then summoned, and rather a stormy meeting followed. She charged him with being the cause of her being in her present condition, and stoutly asserted that she would rather die than live with him another day. On his part he said he didn’t care to have her live with him, that two years of married life had satiafied him, and that his only purpose in seoking her out wns to nli over some private matters which the.twain were allowed to discussed by themselves. ROBBED WHILE ASLEEP — An BHoglishman Misses His Companion and a Thou- #and Dollars, The Result of Placing Too Much Con- fidence in a Comparative Btranger. A young man named J. E. O'Brian, an Englishman by birth, arrived in this city Thureday night, with the in- tention of proceeding westward yes- terday to engage in some mining en- terprises. He lived in New York for several years, and lately learning that a large legacy had fallen to him across the water, went to England and seouring his wealth returned. He planned that with a portion of his wealth he could amess a 8'ill greater fortune in the rich mining regions of the far woast, and taking a fancy to a young fellow named Wilson who was atwork in a hotel in Brooklyn, offired him a chance to come w:'t with him, He fitted upjyoung Wilson with a new suit of olotkes, aud paid his railway fare and expenses, the agreement be- g that Wilson should work for him in the mining enterprises, The two journeyed to this city pleasantly enough, and on reaching the transfer depot took a rest while waiting for a train to go still further westward. The wealthy Englishman took a sleep, and when he awoke he found that Wilson was gone. He also quick: discovered that @ pockelbuu{ ounu_lnu about $1,000, and which the Englishman had been carrying inside his vest was missiug also. ~ It was evi- dent that Wilson had taken the §1,000 and skipped. Luckily the English- wan other money with him, so that he was not put in immediate dis- tress, save that whioh naturally came mlrh mind by the loss of such a fat roll, He secured the assistance of Officer Cusick, and & hunt was begun for Wilson, The officer and the robbed man went across the river and kept an outlook for the trains rolling out of Omaha, but no trace of Wilson could be found. —_— THE GRISWOLD 8UICIDE, Olrcumstances that Indicate that it is & Case of Deliberate Murder, ln'ir Oak Express, March 16.

The facts will go hard with them, J e —— YEARNING FOR YOUNG MEN. — A Meeting Held to Digcuss Plans and Purposes. The call for a meeting for the pur- pose of discussing the advisability of organizing a Young Men’s Christian sesociation in this city called together over seventy-five men, young and old, in the vestry of the Presbyterian church Thursday evening. Rev. Mr Oleland presided, and the time was taken up mainly in talking over the needs of the young men in this city and how best to mcet them. Mr, Houser, the secretary of the associe- tion in Omaha, was prcrent and gave a very practica! talk concerning how the work had been developed there, and how discouragements had been overcome, He presented the facts and figures of the work done there, as already given in THe Beg, and urged that a like effort would produce # like result here. De. Montgomery, Rev. Mr. Bresee, Mr. Stacy, Mr, Stevens, Rev. Mr. Hamlin, Dr. Hauchett, Mr, Overton, Rev. Mr, Leman, Mr. Cole, and oth- ora made brief remarks expressive of their views on the matter. g There was a unanimity of feeling |gall hat something should be done for the young men, that some place should be provided where strangers and young men away from home oould spend their leisure time pl antly and profitably and that arrange- ments should be made for providing employment, looking out for suitable boarding places, getting acquaintances and dffi"li other praotical work. In addition it was concaded that there was a religious work to be done which would prove helpful to' the churches. Among some there was a feeling ex- m-od that the churches of the .city 80 much Iabor now, and so few la- borers, as to raise a doubt whether it would ' be ' 'advisable to multiply organizitions, when the bur- den would fall upon the few who are now doing work in eonnection with churches, and who already find their tinances, strength and time inade- quate for doing ull they desire to do, On the other hand it was claimed that such an organization would stir up the community to activity aund multiply the workers. Attention was called to the fact that in nearly every ity such an or- ganization existed and was proving suocessful, and that this city sball not be behind. Many strangers visiting Courcil Bluffa had expressed surprise on tinding that with 20,000 inhabi- tunta there was no association of this kind, . It seemed to be the unanimous feel} ing as expressed by several speakers that much depended upon the head o! the organization. Without any for- mal action it was deemed best to get some experienced and wrained Y, M, 0. A, man from elsewhere to organiz: the work here, aud to arrange for paymg him a salary, so thit he could devote all his time and energies to the work. Adjournment was then taken until next Mondsy evening at the rame place, when it was hoped there would be a still larger attendance, and that ~ome definite steps might then and there be decided upon, —_—— IOWA ITaMS, Oskalcora is to have an $85,000 ; court house, Des Moiues is eaid to have done aver fifty million dollars’ worth of business in 1881, Many towns in Towa have rcoently ordiances requiring barbel shops as well as other plases of busi- ness to close up on Sunday.
