Ed Warner has been arrested as the one who stole a pair of boots from For- man & Bros.’ store a week or two ago. He is to have a hearing to-day. The funeral of Mr. Edward Wickham yesterday was one of the most largely attended in months, there heing over a hundred carriages in the procession, New jury chairs have been pro- vided for the coming term of the district court, and the old cowt room has been subjected to some improvement, and the leaks in the roof stopped. William Barrett was arrested Saturday on an old fnformation filed before Justice Abbott in August, charging him with asssulting A. K. Brown.. Barrett gave bonds for his appearance next Wednes- day.

He has lately moved a portion of the old Hol[;kinu machine shop to the corner of Brondway and Tenth, and is to fit it up for a store. Prof. Clyde's stereopticon entertain- ment yesterday evening, like its prede- cessor, was a success, and gos one of the best in that line. Prof. Clyde is per- sonally a gentleman, and his entertain- ments are certainly fine, Rev. M. Crittenden, of Sioux City, preached in the Congregational church here yesterday in exchange with Rev. Mr. Hamlin, who has been spending a few days here visiting Mr. Keith, Mr. Ford and other friends and parishioners, L. H. Nelson, who was recently ar- rested on the charge of embezzlement, preferrod against him by Deere, Wells & Vo., of this city, had his preliminrry ex- amination in Blair, Nebraska, Saturday, and was bound over in the sum of The board of trade meets this evening, 1t is to be regretted that the board and city council manage to meet almost al- ways on the same evening. A change would accommodate many and insure larger attendances at the board of trade meetings. Loring, who was arrested for stealing clothing, has been bound over to the grand jury in the sum of 300, and is again in jail, His attempt to escape while on hir wn{:) his examination be- fore Justicn Abbott, indicated that he was afraid of the result, and wasa bad break for him. Yesterday afternoon death ended the sufferings of Mrs, Elizabeth Willard, widow of Robert Willard, and a sister of Mrs. George Marshal. Some time ago she had a paralytic stroke, and since then the worst Kun been feared, and is now come. She was a very estimable woman, and had many friends here, who will be pained to learn that she is no more. Jennie Hilbrant, the woman who re- cently shot Mrs, Garlowski, and who claims to be Garlowski's first and only true wife, has been in jail since the blood{ affair, and las been closely exam- ined by the commissioners of insanity.

Tt seems as if these twenty-four hdlirs were the longest twenty-four hours ever known, The mayor's watch must have | stopped, for the city is full of féllows whom one would naturally suppose were the ones meant. 0. A. Boyd, of Boomer township, has caused the police a good deal of extra work by his forgetfulness. He missed his overcoat, and coneluding that it had been stolen from his wagon, had the | officers go the rounds of all the second | hand stores. The coat was found at last, just where he had left it, hanging on a nail, Harry Birkinline, the of the water works, has had to wrestle of late with fresh perplexities owing to the engineer sudden drop of the Missouri necessitat further lowering of his conduit The river went down one foot in twenty- four hours, probably caused by an ice gorge near Sioux City.

Clark, six pounds of honey; “A Friend,” one ham, side of bacon, dressed chickens; Mrs. Prof. Paige, $1.20; Mrs. Eliza A. Johnson, one feather bed. The number of citizens visiting the home shows an increasing interest, there being on Saturday thir- teen, It is needless to say all are wel- come. - The improvements are atill going on, The painters are putting on the second coat, the lot has been filled up, adding to the healthfulness as well as the appearance of the house, and other .| patlor floor. THE DAILY BEE---COUNCIL BLUFFS: MONDAY DECEMBER 8, 1883. A BLOODY BURGLAR. Shoots at His Danghter., In His ¥ Much Jewelry. made n successful entry into the resi dence of Judge James, on Third avenue, and after securing about £300 worth of Mrs, prowling about the daughter, Miss Kate Larimer James, the jewelry from James' room, was house, when her well-known vocalist, was aroused from her sleep, and opening the door of her toom, discovered the burglar, crawling along on his hands and knees on the As she opened the door he fired a revolver either at her or to frighten her, and as she shut the the fellow hurried out of the front door. She door, at once thew up her window, in time to seo him stop under a large tree, near the sidewalk, slip on his shoes, which he had left theré on entering the house, and run away. The ball which he fired struck a chair in the parlor in almost a straight line be- tween Miss James and the burglar, After passingthrough the velvet uphol- stery of the chair the ball lodged in the casement of a door. On the afternoon before a man called at the house claiming that Judgs James had sent him to fix the pump in the kitchen, which needed some repairs. He had n hammer and a wrench, and after fussing with the pump said that it needed some new rubber or leather, and started off to get some, and did not re- turn. Tt afterwards appeared that the fellow was not sent there at all, and it seems plain now, that the pump- ropairer and the, burglar were one and the same person, and that the protext of fixing .the pump was for the purpse of gotting at the arrangement of the house. One window of Mrs, James’ changes are being made as fast as finances will permit, The death of Mr. Edward Wickham, though not altogether unexpected, still scomed a great shock to his friends and the community in which he was so well known, as he had been contined to his bed but a week. The funeral services were held at the Catholic church yester- day afternoon and were largely attended. Mr. Wickham was born in Ireland, in 1883, and when twenty years of age, came to this country and settled in_this city where he has since resided. With his two brothers, James and O. P. Wick- ham, he has been engaged in the con- struction of some of Council Bluffs best buildings the Jast being the Catholic church, . There is considerable fun going on quictly about the Main street cars, on their trips to the evening trains. One hotel has worked in its colored represen- tative as conductor of the car, and another hotel has one or two colored por- ters on the car, and the struggle for pat- ronage is funny enough. It is growing to be rather annoying to the passengers, however, and the street car management should shut down on the atrangement, and let the hotel runners take sopie other field in which to show their rivalry. 'With a colored conductor representing one ho- tel, and a colored porter another hofel, the civil rights decision does not seem to Lave affected the street car management. George Snowder, and Charles Crow- ford, two Omaha young men, were ar- rested Saturday by Officers Cresick and Brooks for disturbing the peace. young men were quarreliing near the transfer, and the officers marched them clear up to the ocalaboose And locked | them in. Soon after that, the prisoners found the old hele in the floor, and crowled through it into tho basement, and then walked out the front door, which was unlocked, Only a day or two before a still more important prisoner escaped the very same way. 1t soems as if the least that could be done was to keep that front dour locked, Almost every week some prisoncr’ cscapes this way. Justice Vaughan has a mixed case be- fore him. It is claimed that Al Nixon stole a horue from E. Saunders and sold it to Alfred Getton, who in turn sold it to E. R, Decker. Deckerhas had Get- ton arrested for obtaining money from him for the horse under false pretenses, and Getton has given bonds to appear this morning at 10 o'clock, Gietton in turn has sworn to an information charg- ing Nixon with obtaining money from him for the horse under false pretenses. Saunders has alto filed an information aganst Nixon for stealing the horse, and has also charged Decker with larceny, the horse being found by Cobatably Skinner in the latter's possession, and Decker refusing to give him up, While the snarl is being unravelled Skinner holds the horse, A The room was 80 expoped that by standing ina littlo recoss on the outsideof the house,the burglar could.peep in and see just where she. placed her jowelry and having thus all the/faotd in his possession, it only re- mained (for, him to enter and help him- self. It is expected that he also had an dyo on Miss James' diamonds, but her awakening prevented a visit to her room. As the ofticers have a pretty good descrip- tion of the fellow there is some prospect for ik’ capture. e 4 TICAL PIETY, PRAC A Cburch Dedicated e from Debt, —Other Doings at C'oon Rapids, Coox Rarmns, Ta., November 30,—The entertainment given on Thanksgiving evening by the Masonic fraternity was a success in overy respect. There is a great deal of small litiga- tion in our justice's courts at this time growing out of the difficulty of making collections, The Presbyterians dedicated their new chutéh on last Sunday. There were présent Rev. Ewing, of Parsons College, Fairfield; Rev. McElhany, of Chicago, and Rev. Bailey, state missionary, of Carroll, aswell a3 the dastor of the church, The dedicatory sermon was delivered by Dr. Ewing, and was an ex- tremely fine and scholarly address. The new building is a neat and commodious structure and the congregation out of debt. $100 more than was necessary was raised to pay all claims. e —— Miln as HA On Saturday evening Miln appeared again at Dohany's hall, this time in Ham- let. He showed a marked improvement over Jast geason, and in some of the lines was really grand, calling forth much ap- Plause. That a man could so quickly change from the pulpit to the stage snd gain any sort of success is a surprising ot.

At MR fact. Miln has not only won success—in fact, leaped into popularity —but shows that, though far from pertect, he is destiued to Le great in his chosen charac- ters. He still has the natural fault of overacting, but scems ‘to be remedying this very fast, and in Hamlet, as pre- sonted by hum, thero are passages in which he comes very closo to those who have studied and played the character for years, where he has spent months. Miss Guernsey, as Ophelia, won much merited applause. She is another phe- nomenal actor. Although she has qmpurad herself by years of the most thorough culture here and abroad, and has for sev- eral years delighttd audiences with her readings and impersonations, this is her first season on the stage, and to take the part of leading lady in such a compw and in such !)Tnyn, caused oven her ad- miring friends to'waver, but, though she has much to gain yet, she certainly has ot above the lower rungs already, and is estined to reach the top.
