Murder of OM Man 1y Has His Examination, The preliminary examination of T. W, Wateon, for the murder of J. M. Shelley, was held at Glenwood on Thursday, and resulted in the accused being held for the action of the grand jury, without the privelege of bail. E. B. Woodruff ap- peared for the state, and, T. W. Ivory for the defendant. There are a number of strong circumstances pointing to Wat- son as the murderer. At the time the old man’s bleeding body was found on the floor of his little out-of-the-way shop there seemed no clue to the perpetrators of the crime, but it was soon after learned that & man had that night been seen on horseback riding away from the scene of the murder. Mr, [John Ryerson, who was on foot, was overtaken and passed by this rider, who was going at a rapid gait. Mr, Sampson Howard afterwards of the possibility of railway companies gobbling such a bridge and running trains through to Omaha, and making that the terminus, still such persons believe that in order te have a highway at all it must bo capable of transferring freight cars, and should be restricted to that, Others claim that if the railways are determined to push their lines west, and sond their trains across the river, instead of stop- ping them here, that they will find means of doing so; that they will cross at points north of Couneil Bflx!l‘:« and south of Council Bluffs, and thus leave this city on a side-track. Tur Brr gives these different views that its readers may have all the opin- ions before them, instead of following the passionate policy of the Nonpareil, and giving but one view. As it has remarked before there should be great caution shown in theA enterprise, as it is a most important one. Ono of the points most needing guard- ing is to prevent railways from gobbling up the enterprise, and thwarting the will of the people. Even if a wagon bridge charter is secured, a company formed, and subscription books opened, the Union qwific officials and their lackeys may slipin and subscribe for a majority of ( saw the horseman as he passed his house, and recognized the horse as belonging to Mr. Plumb. * Mr. Alexander also met him and spoke to him, but the rider did not reply. He thought the rider was either {Ir, Plumb _or Mr. Watson, who worked for Mr. Plumb. It was learned that Watson had asked Mr. Plumb for the use of the horse the very evening of the murder, saying he was subsequently learned that he was not at Clayton’s at all that night. A watch and going over to Mr. Clayton's, but it was | d the stock, and thus get control without investing a dollar., Having got control they would let the matter die, and tuck- ing the charter in a pigeon hole would build no bridge, and thus keep up its present monopoly. Opposition either on the sly, or openly, is to be looked for from the Union Pacific, and its organs, unless that company gets control of the enterprise, and that they will strive to o, If a company shall be formed for the construction of a wagon bridge and the Tar Bex can be delivered at your door with the telegraphic news of the world and the local nows of both cities, for twenty cents a week. Try it. Anybody and everybody who doubts that this county needs a new court house and jail should take a look at the old pile of brick now used for that purpose. The business mon and citizens of Glen- wood are reported as becoming interested in the Home of the Friendless here, and expreasing a willingness to help it along. The entertainment given for the bene- fit of John Braun, the laborer injured by a fall from the Masonic building, netted about $100. The money is well placed. There is talk of having the stage taken out of Bloom & Nixon’s hall, and other improvements made, . making larger and better accommodations for dances. P. L. Johnson now takes the position of teacher of natural science in the high achool. He is an alumnus of the state university, having been graduated last year. Spiritual society meets every Sunday at2and 7 p. m. in Devols & Wright's block, No. 14 North Man street, up stairs, Everybody invited. Mrs, E. Eggleston, medium. Mr. Allen Root, who lives a short dis- tance north of Omaha, was in the city yesterday hunting for a horse which was stolen from his stable the night before. Of course he didn’t find it. Judge Lyman’s house is among:the latest places reported as visited .by bur- glars. By means of a jimmy a window ‘was forced open, but a colored man who works at the house was awakened, shout- ed an alarm, and the fellows skipped. The Lights 'O London as a matinee, and as an entertainment to-night will draw big houses. The entertainment last evening proved highly acceptable. The audience was thelargest yet gather- ed in the new opera house.

Entrance on Main andl Pear streets, two doors south of the postoffice. Some of the citizens who have taken up lands near Kimball, Dakota, are some- ‘what startled over the Teport that, in digging for water, there has been a find of gold. Col. Fox, who has a farm six miles from there, is among those who That portion of the sidewalk onBroad- ‘way, in front of the old Herdic barn, is now fenced on each side, so that foot 4 passengers have to go out in the street - and walk around the place. All this is * the result of an injunction which Marsnal Koy got restraining the city from filling . up that portion of the walk, The public anust be inconvenienced while the legal contest drags along in the courts, The title, abstract and loan firm of J, W. Bquire & Co. has made a change, . Squire having associated with him his brother E, L. Squire, who has heen with him several years. The firm will be known as J. W. & E. L.

While the case was being worked up by Sheriff Farrell and others, Watson had left Mr. Plumb's and gone, as he claimed, to Missouri, and re- turning had gone to work for Mr. Bada, It was learned that Watson's statement about having taken a trip into Missouri was false, and that he hnX really been to Clarke county, his former home, and in Hopeville had sold the watch for 75 cents lmf:lw revolver for §1. These articles were recovered, and when Watson was arrested he was confronted with them. He confessed to having sold them, but claimed that he purchased them of a young man in *the Plumb neighborhood about a week after the murder. The property has been fully identified as hav- ing bu{flnged to the murdered man. Watson has served a term in the reform school at Eldora, and his reputation in Clarke county is said not to have been very good, but in Mr. Plumb'a neighbor- hood he has always behaved himself well since living there. ——— Prof, A, Bernstein, proprietor of the Great European College of Anatomy, now exhibiting at 817 Broadway, returned yesterday from an ex- tended European trip, where he has been purchasing a great many anatomical wax figures, which he will plase on exhibition in’ this city for the first time in America. e —— SUOLDING ABOUT THE SCHOOL The Teacher Put on Trial Before the Superintendent on Queer ' Charges. An odd trial of a school ma'am was had, in Mills county before County Superin- tendent Moore, the other day, James Jones, a resident of Pleasant Valley township, preforred charges against the teacher, Miss Mary L. Baird, charging her with “‘incompetency to teach, inabil- ity to govern, gross negligence, partial- ity and the use of vulgar language,” and on these grounds asked that her certifi- cate be revoked, A number of witnesses were examined, and the trial lasted near- ly a day. The superintendent decided that the charge of incompetency was not sustained, but that the teacher's govern- ment was a success rather than a failure, that no partiality had been proved, and that while there was some negligonce in keeping the house clean, yet in regard to poor fires, it was due to the lack of kind- ling wood, and that while the defendant was rather indiscreet in the use of lan- guage, that she used neither abusive or vulgar words, and the provocation was great. The teacher was therefore sus- tained, and she kep tificate, tho; place and cer- ——— We still have a few choice heating stoves which we are closing out at a great sacrifico.

The Nonpareil in its wild U, P* howl- ings against any sort of a new bridge con- neoting Council Bluffs with Omaha, de- clares in one breath that ‘“‘all of Mr. Pusey's constituents, irrespective of partisan affilistions, are and have been for years, pronounced in the most em- phatic manner against any such scheme,” and a little further on in the same col- umn says that at a largoly attended meeting of the board of trade and citizens generally there was a diversty of opin. ions, “some maintaining that the better the means for communication across the river the better for the interests of our city,” Thus The Nonpareil admits that its claim of a unanimous opposition to any such scheme is false. The fact is there is strong criticism of the form of the present bill and its lack of restric- vons and safeguards, but not so much Oppositioa to the idea of a bridge, - es. pecially & wagon bridge, between the two cities. This has been growing in favor for two years or more and there is little opposition to it, and great urging for it. As to a railway addition to the bridge, there are also o few in favor ef that provided the necessary vestrictions can be had, 80 ihat it will be a local used, not for for r coaches, but gim. ’oui- full cars of freight, me from soul to- and anul':: u‘-:l l;.rlld a8 now to thn‘:Juwn e w) it almont Tmposaible to ot money to build it, and atmost fln to muke it pay unless there is m is 8 natural dread wad W, 1, J, Hillil Union Pacific cuulq not get control of it, that company is prepared to do its best to frighten ocapital from investing. The Union Pacific has in its charter a provision for the construction of a foot and wagon bridge in connection with its present railway bridge. It not only has that, but it has all the material already on hand to put up this wagon addition, the plan beiog to hang it on the sides of the present bridge. It is easy to imagine how ready the company would be to begin putting on this addi- tion if another bridge was started, and how cutting of rates and other opposition would be threatened. If the new bridge enterprise could thus be killed off, then the work on the wagon addition to the present bridge would stop, and the peo- ple would be back into_their old_thrall- dom and under the old pressuré.of the thumb of the U. P. There are many advantages which would accrue to both cities from another bridge, of some sort, by which inter-com- munication could be freer and easier.. In trying to get its share of these advanta- ges, Council Bluffa needs to move, notso slowly as surely, and Tur Bek will at all times try to present fairly the facts on all sides.
