The prediction that Bill Harrison would not appear again to answer the charge of being one of the Mills county gang of horse chieves proved false, for he yesterday came to the front, waived ex- amination,and gave honds for appearance at the district court. The teachers institute, of Pottawatta- mic county, opened yesterday for a. three weoks course. There were 78 enrolled, a larger number than there ever reported before on the opening day. 1t is expect- ed that to-day and to-morrow enough more will be added to make the number 200 or more.

There were a goodly number of small cases to occupy the attention of the po lice court yesterday Among them were the tramps who were captured near the K. C. roundhouse, and who had contest with the officers. Two of them still have the marks on their heads, showing the result of ing the strong arm of the law, especially morning resist when said arm was armed with a club. They were fined 88,10 each, and put to work on the streets, not being able to pay. the fines. Charles Kanest, on Sunday, was amount. William Field, a namesake of the chief of police, was allowed time to secure the money t pay his fine for drunkenness, it appearing that he was one of the vic and that his crops would be a little light anyway.

Several other parties are to be brought to the front. Two, especially wanted, kept out of the way yesterday, and the ofticers searched rur them in vain, The man Cain, who was arrested for as- saulting old man Engle, has evidently got frightened, and not knowing what punishment was to be meted out to him, has skipped from town, leaving his wif and child here.

Yesterday afternoon two young fellows. train boys, were throwing dice for drinks und cigars in the saloon on Broadway, formerly occupied by Doc Felker. Some dispute arose about the amount due the house, and one of the boys threw a bee: glass at the bar. The saloon man then had the boys arrested for gambling, and they were fined 814.10 each. Pat Lacy went sceurity for the payment of the fines, and the boys hurried cff to their trains, breathing threats of vengeance on their return in the form of complaint against the saloon for selling liquors to minors. e CORNICE POLES AT COST'! At Beard’s wall paper store,next to post- oftice, m-w ama siezed e THE CHURCH TROUBLE. the Self-Accused Defaulter from Virginia Has to Say. What Tur Bee has already chronicled the fact that a man giving | Church is lying in jail here now, at his own instance, he claiming to be a defaul- ter fom West Virginia, He was a little th: worse for liquor when he turned himself over to the officer at the transfer, but yesterday was all right, and told his story to Tre Bee reporter quite con- nectedly, He is a thin, nervous acting man, and it is difficult to determine how much truth there s in some of the state- ments he makes. He says that he is from Caldwell county, West Virginia, and that he was a nativ that place. At the time of the br out of the war he skipped out and soon afterward enlisted with a Minnesota bat- tery and se; ¢ the war he went | [ that time has occupied various ofticial positions, having been magor, a member of the council several teris, and com- mission of school lands for seve years. While in this position he a defaulter, and while this had not been discovered, he found that he could not square himself, and_concluded to leave, He did not even tell his wife and funily but left suddenly Monday of last week He came as far Hllmuu his intention being to see if he could not get some other position, and_gather up enough noney, 1 the of years had t the school fund. He pver city Saturday with the intention of going out with a conductor, who was to let him 4o through to llinois. He got over here too late to take the train, and did not dare to wait around here until the con ductor came back for another trip, ex s name as J, W sometin conrsc cann pecting that telegrams would be sent out | He was | all oyer the country after him, so worried that he finally concluded to give himself up and end all anxiety. He complains greatly at the way cer Morse used him. He says that was taken to the police station, and there about $8 in silver was taken from him Offi and deposited in the drawer, and that on | 1 the way down to jail Morse said he ought to examine him a little farther, and foel ing in his pocket, took away from him an ———— usual | of larceny, provided he would | when | to pay | en from | to this | he | envelope coutaining one lottery ticket and about 860 in money, together with the papers, The envelope, ticket and pa pers were found with the silver money at | police headquarters, but the 860 was gone. Some improbabilities to this stor, and some of his nervous actions have caused some belief that the man s a little off mentally. Communications have been sent to West Virginia to learn what truth there is in the statement as to the defaleation, and in the meantime he is waiting here in jail with no money to buy even the to baceo which is part of the lifelof a Virgin ian. He seems like a man who has had education and position in society. C— Dr. West, Dentist, 14 Pearl street.
