v v R LINCOLY MUNICIPAL MATTERS The Bcheme to Nominate a Citizens' Ticket Blow in Materializing, PREPARATIONS FOR BASE BALL, The Grounds Being Put in Condition For the Opening of the Season— State House Notes—Cap- ital News, [FROM THE BEE'S LINCOLN BUREAU.] No light has yet been shed upon the Acheme to nominate a eitizens' ticket and the committee of fifteen to be given these extraordinary pows former gathering | ized to public view, ever, from the editorial attitude of the Journal, that it knows what is going on and it practically aunounces its desire to supvort a ticket of such creation before its own party has called a convel the democratic party has placed a to in the field for the contest. The Journal is eviaently afraid to trust the republi- cans of Lincol d evidently believes or knows already this committee will put a man of its own liking in the field tor mayor, which makes it almost amus- Ing to see it preparing to enter the role of a mugwump in city politics. Of course, if this committee of fifteen place a democrat in nomination, that party will support the movement, for it would be in their forlorn hope an entrance way to yossible success through the common as- sistance of what republicans, through all kinds of influences, could be drawa into the support of a democrat through a cry of reform. It is very evident, however, that the great mass of republicans in Lincoln have not yet become, like the State Journal, afraid of their own party, and the efforts to stampede people with the 1dea that the xepublicans of the city are not capable of nominating and elécting a good sound set of city officials has thus far fallen flat and without profit. An old residenter and observing citizen announces that the plan of the citizens' ticket racket looks very much as though some of the alleged guardians of the city had some schemes to advance or perpetuate and have in- augurated this movement to secute that ‘which they dare not trust to a decision of the public. The city’s needs and neces- sities receive through open political con- tests a voice and vote direct from the eople, and the people ought to be stron- ger than a committee of fifteen or the one man that created it. BASE BALL PROSPECTS, The Lincoln Base Ball association is ‘busily engaged at the present time upon their grounds on South street, and it is ;a(o to say that no club in the Western lengue will have handsomer or better fitted grounds, both for the players and the patrons. A large and commodious grand stand will be erected, the grounds nre fenced and the diamond is being fitted and platted to pattern after the best fin the east. The streat car lines will give easy access to the park and already the stand privileges, programme work and Jike nccessories have been leased for the season. President Threw, of the Western league, arrive here Sunday evening from the meeting at Leavenworth, at which place the Kansas City club sccured a_membership and the schedule of games for the season was formally adopted. The first game on the Lincoln grounds at the commence- ment of the season will be played with the OUmaha club on the 5th, 6th™ and 7th of May, the Lincoln club, however, open- ing the season a week earlier in a series of three games with the Denyers at Den- wer during the last week_in April. The schedule calls for two Fourth of July ames in Lincoln, both morning and after- goon, the Hastings club being their com- etitors at that time. 1t is probable that y July the Lincoln team will be leading the league for the pennant and the Hast- {ngs club will be just close enough to the aders to make the games of decided in- terest. It would not be a bad scheme to secure seats at once for these holiday contests. The most of the players in the Lincoln team . have reported at head. uarters and the balance are expected the present week. When all hands are present a constant practice will be the order and it is understood that efforts are now advanced for a series of exhibition ames with the Des Moines club prior to Eho opening of the league season, AT THE STATE HOUSE, Yesterday State Treasurer Willard and ccretary Laws devarted for Grand land, at which place they will be met by and Commssioner Scott, and _together 4hese officinls, as the state board of lands mnd buildings, will locate the new sol- idiers’ home at that place as required by sthe bill creating that institution.

Through t florts ofv Mr. Quay and Senator Lowrey of the Crawford district this divorce bifl, without going to com- od both houses of the legisla- s8 than two hours. This wis on January 10, 1866, Miss Mary Wilson Cur- tin had just budded in her teens when her father was elected governor of Pennsyl- vania, and was a school girl when she came to Harrisburg to live at the execu- tive mansion, She was sprightly, good natured, and had charming manners. By 1865 she had grown to be on= of the hand- somest, most entertaining, and most sought after of all in society here and in Philadelphia, where she was well known and is still remembered as a belle. One evening at an entertainment at the governor's mansion she met young Cap- tain Honry Lloyd McConnell, a dashing officer of the army, who was taken i dunn;i the reception and kindly taken care of by the governor's family. This led to frequent meetings between Miss Curtin and young McConnell, who was a fine-looking fellow, but of no particular social status, and would not have been listened to by the governor as a suitor for the hand of his daughter. But Cupid and the captain’s shoulder-straps played havoc with the young lady’s heart, he result was that one afternoon a pair of timid lovers appeared in the office of old 'Squire MclLaughlin and asked to be married. The young lady _was veiled. The justice did not drean that ~ she ‘was the governor's daughter, whom he knew by sight as one of the pretty girls of the town. He readily agreed to perform the cremony. His little nephew, who was present, wit- nessed the marriage certiticate, The Wung lady gave her name as Miss Mary ison Curtin, with a_strong accent upon the last syllable. The old squire and his nephew are both dead, but there is still a hving witness to this ceremony in Harrisburg—William McLaughlin— the justice's son, who was home from the war on a furlough and happencd to be in the oflico at the time. “Captain McConnell,” said Mr, Mec- Laughlin, 1 relating the story of the marriage, “was a very handsome fellow, ::pt T guess that's about all there was in him, The captain walked down the street to the executive mansion and left his bride at the door, gflng to his own quarters, presumably to let the storm blow over. But the storm never did blow over. The governor, as was to be expected, was in towering rage when he was told by his daughter what she had done. The young 1ady was hurried off to a boarding school and out of reach, and negotiations were begun with the husband to get him out of the way as well. Gov. Curtin’s political power at that time was'greater,probably, than that of any man in the state, and menns were found to induce the young and daring captain to leave the state and muke no claims upon his wife, who, he was told, had revented ot her marriage, and didn’t care to see him any more. In a few da{s the captain left Harrisburg, and was lost siFIn of by his friends here. Ho subsequently became a_United States lm:u-uhnl in the west, where he now 1ves, Whether the young bride protested against the summary way in which she was snatched from her husband's arms is o matter of conjecture, but it was cur- rent gossip among those few who knew of the circumstances that the irate gov- ernor had locked his daughter up in her room in the executive mansion until the captain was out of the way. The mar- riage was kopt pretty quiel considering the circumstances, “and, although the story did leak out in wc\sty in a piece- meal sort of way, the particulars were never known, and the papers knew nothing of the affair. As scon as the legislature met a divorce bill was presented, as has been seen, and the marriage annulled. Since then Miss Curtin has married a gentleman in every way worthy of her, is well known in so ciety at the national capital and in New York, and looks back unon her youthful folly with the regret which comes with more sober years, ———— A Western newspaper that the latest sensation is a St. Louis horse that chews tobacco: but the greatest sensation 18 Dr. Bull's Congh Syrup.
