Slattery ha# roturned from his old home in 8t. Louis, where he has spent most of his summer vacation. He 18 preparing to enter with more vim than over upon his duties as principal of St. Joseph's acadomy, a position in which he has already won much success. The academy is being put in shape for the opening, which occurs next Monday, and everything now points to a prosperous yoar, The news concerning the reward offered “by the governor for the arrest of the murdcrer of his brother had already pro- ceded him here. It was somewhat of a surprise to many of his friends and ac- quaintances, as when the news of his brother’s death reached here, it was understood to be the result of an acci- dent. The facts show that he was the victim of a most brutal murder. It ap- pears that young Slattery, while serving as foreman in some St. Louis iron works, gave orders to one of the men, named John Flicker, who was a rough, surly fellow, and, as was afterward learned, an ex-convict and a desperado, Flicker re- fused to comply, and commenced calling young Slnewr{ all sorts of vile epithets, whereupon the latter very calmly but firmly warned him not to use such words to him, or he would put him out of the yards. The ruffianly fellow turned, and Wwith another torrent of abuse, picked up a heavy piece of iron weighing several pounds, and threw it at young Slattery, a distance of ten cr twelve feet, the chunk of iron striking him on the side of MINOR MENTION, Bliss has new Fall Hats.

Prof. Glenn’s new orchestra goes to Glenwood Thursday evening to furnish music for a d ball to be given by the Light Gi of that place. Ed, Phillips, over whom a charge of assault has been hanging some time, was mm-dly discharged by Justice Schurz, prosecution failing to appear. The ing of Broadway is now close up to the O, & N.

Dearborn has sold his fine - B flat cornet, of the Antoine Cortor’s make, to Prof. Gus Covalt, the leader of the Harmony band. The instrument is avery fine one, Mr. Dearborn having p-idr‘W for it. Mayor Harris, of Red Oak, recently fined a saloon-keeper in that place $100 for selling beer to & minor. If some ot the saloon-keepers here were traced up by a reminder of that sort, it would be a good thing for the boys around town. Mrs. Schuster complained at police headquarters yesterday that a mannamed Bprinfinr had shot her dog. It appeared that the dog had bitten one of Springer's children, and the woman took the chief’s advice and concluded to say no more about it. The funeral services of Miss Inez Young, whose death was noticed yester- day in The Bek, took place yesterday af- ternoon at the family residence on Lin- coln avenue. Rev. Mr. Lemen officiat- ed, the deceased being a member of the Baptist church of which he is pastor. In the circuit court, the case of the xural property owners who desire to be sot sutside of the city limits, so as to avoid city taxes on farming lands, was heard and submitted, but no decision was vendered. The case of Casady vs. Sapp, concerning the title to somwe property, 'was then taken up. An Oakland livery man let out a team and buggy, Monday of last woek, to a man who said he wanted to go to Shelby, up&cfing to re:um at ‘nno:.

The first of SBeptember w,lqduhohnrzhv fow dogs in proportion w! ve the necessary per mit to bark at .Andl»dofl":fllhu- man flesh, the d" death will carry ddestruction the city. It b oibhoriton that Tho o E the hend, cousing o bad frac- ture. The wound was not deemed 80 very serious ot first, as {,l)u;:‘g Shattery, after washing off the lood, walked to a dispensary near there, had the wound temporarily dressed until he could reach home and “have hia regu- lar physician attend him, It was thought that he might recover, as he was a young man of excellent physique and great bodily strength and' vigor, which had been well preserved by the best of habite, but in day or two he began to fail, and rapidly sank into death’s arms. There are witnesses who fully corroborate this account of the affair, and who say that not one angry word was indulged in by the victim of the brutal assault, even when the enraged workman was using such abusive language. The murderer fled and the police haye been laying low for him, expecting he would return, but not exerting them- selves to any degree to find out his whereabouts. One officer, who got a glimpse of him, followed on his track for quite a ways, but he gave him theslip. B, making this chase he was absent at rufi call, having been two hours after the man, The ofticer, for ‘“‘neglect of duty” was fined $10. This sort of discipline is hot very encouraging, and the other officers naturally have let the affair glide by. The St. Louis papers have lately been lashing the police department about, it, and Prof. Slattery has succeeded in gotting the governor to offer $200 reward for the fellow’s capture. This will doubt- less cause a more active hunt to be made for him, and if found it is hard to imag- ine any extenuating circumstances which he could possibly present to keep the lf\‘m penalty of the law from falling upon him. o —— The Very Latest. The hew fall styles of hats will be opened to-day at Bliss', e ——— No Bliss tor Mrs. Bliss. Mrs. Caroline Bliss, who was under treatment at the insane asylum at Mt. Pleasant, is now released, and, in a lengthy communication to Tue Beg, airs up her course of grievances in detail, too fully in fact to give all of them to the public. She claims that she was sent to the asylum on the complaint of a woman with whom she had difficulty, and that it was dono all through spite. Since her release she claims to be unable to find her household goods, and is not satisfied with the explanation that they were sold for rent, as she says she owed but $1 for rent. She has letters from * the superin- tendent, showing that her condition has changed little or none since she came to the hospital, and that there was no reason for confinement or restraint. The superintendent merely says, ‘‘she appears to bea person of some vory marked poculi 8, -but that if she does not display anything more in the way cf derangement in the future than she has in the past there is no need of keeping her.” She now finds herself on her release, without any money or household goods, and no friends to help her get her rights, or any redress for her wrongs, She says she is the widow of a soldier who was in the war of 1812, who algo served in the war of the rebellion. One of her sons died at Vicksburg, an- other was so wounded as to be perma- nently disabled, and another is out in the western army. She has lost her hear ing, and in fact she seems te have her cup running over, e — Dr, West, dentist, 14 Pear] street. o — The Kindergarten Elsewhere, The abolishing of the Kindergarten in connection with the Council Bluffs schools, was apparently to satisfy the clamoring of those who hardly know what a Kintergarten is, and who make all sorts of fun at, what they term making mud pies and pasting bits of papers together, 1t is interesting to note that while Coun. cil Bluffs prefers to move backwards other cities are moving forward in this respect. Last Sunday’s Chicago Tribune announces that the ‘training de- artment of the Chicago Free indergarten association will receive applications for admission to & new class for instruction of kindergarten teachers, It adds that it is the purpose to encour age the establishment of free kinder- gartens in every locality, it being con- sidered the best prevention for the in- crease of crime, The association now maintains ten of these free kindergartens and The Tribune, in commenting upon it, says that this institution, supported by the best people in the city, is deserving of general encouragement. It may be w8 | that Chicago is not up in average intelli- Tmee, but there are many there who evi- ently endorse the kindergarten, b st Lt Scaman's Sale, As will be noticed by the advertise- ment in other columns, H. E. Seaman is making a special sale, to last thirty days. At the prices he is selling goods i his line, there is a rush for them, and those who want to secure really big bargains should not delay calling upon him. His stock is large and varied, and purshasers can find no better goods ot larger stock from which to select, while at the same timo availing themselves of closing out prices. Saving money is making money. S PLUCKED BY THE POLIVE, The Proprietor of the California House Charged With Getting a Guest's Money—Other Trouble- wome Matters, Most of yesterday was taken up in the police court by the hearing of testimony in regard to the charge made against Robert Taeschler, the proprietor of the California house, that he had got away with 830 belonging to a drunken patron of his house. Taeschler on first appear- n court was charged with keeping his saloon open on Sunday and on a plea of guilty was fined 814 including costs. He had just paid this and put up his pocketbook, when the second and more serious charge was laid against him, that of grand larceuy. A man named Murphy, who had been work- ing in the harvest fields of Crawford county was the alleged victim. He ar- rived here Sunday morning, and quickly added so much to what drinks he had already on board that he became very drunk. Ho fell in with one Jack Hogan a boarder at the California house, and af- ter giving him a dollar, the latter guided him inside, and told the fm)[nriumr to take care of the man and the money. Hogan swore that Murphy pulled out his pocketbook and a gold piece and bill fell on the floor, and the proprietor picked them up, but he could not swear wheth- er it wasa 810 gold piece or 820, He t50 had been drinking. Another,man nam- ed Hitchcock testitied that he. was in the barrom when the money was displayed, and that it was a $20 gold piece. It seems that after Murphy had been brought to the polico station, and had told about his being robbed. Officer Morse was sent by the chief to the Cali- fornia house to see about it. Morse tes- tified that the proprietor denied having had the man's money, and that he didn’t believe the man had any money..A little after that Chief Field interviewed the hotel man, and he gave up a $10 gold piece and a 810 bill, and a memaranda book, claiming that was all the man had. The defense will be presented to-day, its general claim being that the ;)ropriutur took the money to take care of, because the man was too drunk to take care of it himself, and that the gold* piece was $10 and not_$20. Murphy, who was the complaining wit- ness in the above case, was fined for being drnnk, Sam Dobson and a girl who was regis- tered as Kittie Crawford and who says her name is Melissa Gilbert, were before the court yesterday f.r disturbing the pence, they having indulged in_a little row on the street. Each was fined 80 and costs. Each claimed the other was the attacking party. Yesterday afternoon a tailor, Henry Miles, appeared in court with one hand covered with blood and his eye badly bruised, and insisted that a saloon man named Hansen, on Broadway, was the fellow that him. The witnesses were called in and it appears that Miles had a row with an- other tailor in the alleyway, soon after which Miles started to come into Han- sen's saloon, and the latter seeing his condition and fearing that he was bent on another row pushed him away from the door and wouldn't let him in. = Han- sen was discharged, he and several others testifying that Hansen never hit the man at all, e — Prairio chickens and A.
