Mr.Bowen complains that yesterday he called at the city jail to see an acquain- tance, and on leaving someone turned a shower of water on him, If this is the ‘way citizens are to be treated there, it is time for another change. *‘Big Boston,” the man hurt by the falling of the building at the driving park, in last Wednesday’s storm, proves to be more seriously injured than was at first thought, Besides the arm there were several ribs broken, and he will be compelled to lay off for some time.

There isa good deal of grumbling heard because Charles E. was shut out in the third heat of the pacing race Sat- urday.

He was evidently insane, and fancied that the C. B. &Q,, official, with a gang of men ‘wero after him, because he was about to work in the interest of another road. He seized an old knife, and with this made soveral gashes in his wrist, before he could be prevented. The blood flowed freely but the injuries were not of & very serious nature, and he was placed in jail for safe keeping, The Bioux City route will run, on and after tomorrow, a special Pullman car from Council Bluffs to Spirit Lake, leav- ing Council Bluffs on the St. Paul ex- press, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday evenings at 7:40, and arriving without change at Hotel Orleans at Spirit Lake beach, the next morning for breakfsst, Returning, tho special car will leave Bpirit Lake Wednesday and Friday even- inge, and arrive here the next evening at 9 o'clock, The rourd trip tickets are only $0.90, and a better chance was never presented the sweltering and tired ones Lo get rest and recreation, e — Bweot potato plante—largest “stock in s st p——— e — CUNNING CUPID. A Youthfal Pair of Lovers Ontwit the 0ld Folks, Though Rlnpp;ll I; fl:n Police, They Succeed in Marrying. Saturday evening the police received a telegraphic notice to stop a young couple who had eloped from near Clarinda. The lovers were soon found, and were de- tained in the polico headquarters under the watch of the officers pending the ar- rival of the girl's father, who telegraphed that ho would come immediately. The young man’s namo was Charles Chaflin, and he was only nineteen years old, while the girl, named Mattie Whit- ney, was only sixteen. Their parents live on farms about a mile from each other, and about seven mile from Clarinda. The young folks have been engaged since last fall, but the old love affair, especially the girl's father, and so the two had been keeping their plans on the quiet. ILast Friday night there was an entertainment, at which they with other of the young folks were prosent. The boy in order to throw their folks oft their guard, went home with another girl, taking special pains to let the old folks observe the fact. About midnight, however, he slipped around with his horse and buggy to the girl's house, and she, stealing out, they drove together to Red Oak, where they took the train, intending to go to Omaha and marry there. On reaching here they stopped for supper, and before they could cross the river were taken in charge by the police, who had received a telogram giving this instruction. Saturday night they remained sitting up all night at police headquarters, Jim Brooks, the ex-policeman, being put a special to watch them, Yesterday morn- ing they were allowed to go across the street to a restaurant to get their break- fast, no officer accompanying them. They returned all right to police headquarters and remained there until noon when they were allowed to go out in a similar manner to get their dinner. Cupid had sharpened their wits as well as warmed their hearts, and by some messenger they had secured a marriage license, getting their dinner they sont for Justice Schurz and. were speedily married, the ceremony being short, sweetj but strong. They then returned to polico headquar- ters and seated themselves cosily by the window, and chatted lovingly, while they wiatched through the irun bars for the irate father to come storming up the street. The young couple took the mat- ter very quiotly, and seemed rather to enjoy the way they had outwitted the old folks, rather than feel any fear for the result. The young man said he intended to take his bride home at once if her father dld not come right off, The youthful bridegroom is a trim, bright-eyed intelligent farmer's boy, while the girl is & buxom, rosy-cheeked black-eyed damsel, who seems abundant- ly able to care for herself. The young couple have the sympathy of the at- taches of the jail, and the amount of guiet chuckling going on among them in- licated that the officials were not over- anxious to thwart any of love's plans, even at the risk of exciting the displeas ure of the old folks, It seemed doubtful whether the officers would have inter- fered with the marriage of the couple, oven if they had suspected their plan, and rather winked at their noon-day wedding. The girl's father who is quite a wealthy farmer, arrived on the afternoon train yesterday, Ho was very indignant on finding that the young folks were mar- ried, and on being advised to buy tickots and take the young folks back, but he was too mad to take any such advice. He was very anxious to find out how they got their license, and threatened to in- vestigate and punish whoever certified that they were of age. He left the young folks to their fate and took the evening train back for home again, The young man is a relative of Mr. Scott, who has a boarding house on North Main streot, and the newly- wedded ones repaired thither after the old man's angry departure, and will probably start back together for home to-day. C— THE BOY BICYCLIST, He Tarries Here for'a Few Days Be- fore Proceeding to San Francisco, Frank J. Ashton, the young bicyclist who arrived here a day or two ago from Rockford, will remain here until after the Fourth, visiting his uncle and aunt, Mr, and Mrs. Wm, Whiteman. He in. tends, on next Saturday, to resume his journey on his bicycle across the conti- nent to San Francisco, planning to make up forlost time and reach the Pacific coast by the first of August. Ashton has had thirteen races and lost but two of them, 1f a purse is made up and any compet- itors can be found, Ashton will indulge in a race here on the Fourth, Heis pey- ing his expenses by exhibitions, and one of the incentives for making the trip is a $100 medal offered by the company which manufactured the bicycle he is rid- ing. The greatest distance he has ever made in one day on the bicycle is eighty miles, and one day he walked thirty-five miles, rolling his bicycle alongside. His father has a carpet house in Rockford, 111, and has rather objected to his mak- ing the trip, but the boy was so anxious to go that he finally consented, Ashton, on starting out, weighed 138 pounde, and has gained four pounds on the road, e ——et Death of Ohris, Ohris, Schwengor, For soveral days this announcement has been expected, as Mr, Sohwenger has been clinging to life by only a thread, and at 11 o'clock Eaturday night that thread was broken, He was about 37 years of age, and leaves a wife and four children, Ho had relatives in Germany, of which country he was a native, but the only other relative here is a cousin, a lady living at Mauch Chunk, IPa He had been ill but about ten days, typhoid fever being the cause.
