D. Grax, THE NEWS IN THE BLUFES. Jonathan Jones On His Third Trial for Murder, A STRAY LAD CARED FOR. A Slight Manawa Accident—Quarrel- ing Over Dried Apples—Waite ing for Bridge News—The Saloon Cases. On Trial For Murder. The trial of Johnathan Jones, on the charge of murder, opened in the district court yesterday. ‘This isan old ease, but still interests many. The bloody affuir oceurred in February, 1878, Jones and David Roberts, the deceased, were neigh- bors in el Dell township. They had some difficulty and it is claimed that Jones shot lum on the highway, killing him almost istantly. Jones has been tried twice. On the first trial he was found guilty and sentenced to fourteen gears in the penitentiary. A new t obtained, and on this second tri was found guilty and sentenced to s years in the penitentinry. Another trial Wi obtained, and that is now in pro- gress. Attorneys Mynster and Daily are prosecuting, and Colonel C. R. Scott, of Omuha, with Lyman & Hunter, of this city, are defending. The jury in the ease are: John Kittering, P. Hess, J. 3. Brooks, A. M. Miiler, C. despain M. Willinms, Robert Warburton, Ve John Booth, A. Hart, L, E. Laws k in taking the testimony of Mr. Wager, who twice before has told on the stand all that he knew of the tragedy from his house two men running, s thought there was an ucecident. after he saw one of the men, who is sup- posed to be Jones, going to Jones® house. He afterward found the other man, Rob- erts, lying in the road shot in the head. Roberts was breathing, but did not speak and ouly lived a short time. There are several defenses outlined in Jones' bel One is that there is no evide that he shot Rob Another that if he did_shoot him it was in self- defenae, and still another that Jones was insane. Jon now a man past the prime of life. e sits apart from his at- torneys, with a sullen look. apparently having as_little concern in the case as if 1t was o civil suit and between other par- ties. No one looking over the crowd in the court room would pick him out as the defendant. It is said that he isin a stupid_condition mentally, and has no appreciation of tho sitution. “I'he case is being sharply prosecuted, and will be strongly defended. Every ossible point is being covered, and the egal battle will be in keeping with the importance of the case. The trial will last several days. ———— A Stray Lad, A twelve-year-old boy named Wesley Post, not being able to find his parents was compelled to spend Wednesday might in the city jail. It seems that young Post's parents re- moved from Omaha to this city on Wednesday and the boy followed with the expectation of meeting his father at the Brondway dummy depot which he failed to do. He wandered up town and went to the city jail and was yesterday taken care of by Mrs. Bradbury of the Essex house. — - A Manawa Accident. On Wednes evening Miss Jennie Cook, who was riding horseback, wus thrown off Hump Back bridge into the railroad slough. Near the bridge lay several logs, aud George Bebbington's horse shied to one side, striking the horse of Miss Cook, knocking him over. Miss Cook fortunately escaped with the sprain of a tinger and a ducking. el A Fight Over Dried Apples. Yesterday a traveling man, represent- ing Steele & Johnson, of Omaha, was showing up samples in Jacob Apel's store. The talk turned upon dried apples, and while the traveling man was discoursing upon the peculiar merits of some dried apples which he had for sale, Spel Miller, who was standing by, joined in the talk. He had been drinking some, and was not only talkative, but disagreeably so. He contradicted the salesman’s glowing ac- count of dried apples, and the salesman offered to back up the truth of his asser- tions by a bet of §10 to #1. Miller at once flew into a rage, and calling the travel- man a liar hit him. In the first round Miller got the best of the man of the grip, but the latter, rallying from the unex- pected onslaught, began getting in his work, and Miller in turn was worsted, both men being somewhat bloodied in the encounter. ——— Waiting On Washington, *‘What have you heard from Washing- ton?" The question was asked more often than answered yesterday. Tne citizens are very eager to hear the result of the protest filed by the Milwaukee & St. Paul road against the location of the Broadway wagou bridge. There is a general feeling of contidence that there will be no permanent obstacle in the way of the Broadway Bridge company, and as to the future, it is conceded that the bridge will surely be built as planned. The annoying feature of the situation is the delay. Every day seems an age to those who want to be certain before pro- ceeding with other enterprises depend- ent upon the bridge being built. There were no tidings to be had yesterday, but they were hourly exvected. AB epresentative asked John N. Baldwin last evening, if he had heard from Washington in regard to the hear- ing before the sceretary of war. He re- plied that he had not and that he did not expect any news for a few ‘hi& It will take some httle time to look over the papers in the case and I think it will be taken under advisement. From a legal point I can see no reason for un:{ fear; the Milwaukee railway certainly has no right to the location. 1 prepared the brief here for the attorneys at Washing- ton and have a pretty gooa iden of the condition of the ‘case and aw not alarmed."” Engincer Moore was then called on. He expressed himself satisfied that the case would be determined favorable to the wagon bridge, and said: ‘‘I have not expected a decision before Saturday at least. You kuow there is a great deal of red tape in Washington City.” Mr, Moore acknowledged having received a telegram from Washington in the morn- ing, but stated that it was purely a busi- ness telegram. —————— Swearin, e Naloons. The affidavits have been filed in the forty new saloon injunction cases, They are quite interesting documents, although there is a certain sameness which runs through mostof them. The aftidavits are printed blanks filled in, and by them it appears that two men, H. Darville and A. P, McLeren, have been rounding up the saloons. They worked a little differ- ent frow the other two whose affidavits formed the basis for the previous batch of injunctions. The former pair, it will be remetnbered, partook freely, getting away with enough drinks in one day, ac- cording to the aflidavits, to make any or- dinary man as drunk as if he had swal- lowed a distillery. They explained their being still sober enough to sign the affi- davyits, by saying that they only sipped the drinks which thay bought. 'The new pair of workers saved themselves some. The didnot buy all their drinks on one day but have been buying at different places during the month. One would stand by and see the other get a drink, and in the next saloon would do the drinking while the other stood by and served ness. The, tiiree or supporting injunction vits are to the ef names drinks thus dragged in are of promine: \\I-xll not enjoy the notoriety thus given them, No one scems to know who these two men are who have been making the rounds of the saloons. They are st ers here, hke the others who were | to do this work. For some reason, best known to themselves, they did not drink at the leading hotels, or at least do not make any aflidavits agninst them. The German ™ hotels b already been iged to close their bars, and this last includes nearly, if not all, every where drinks are supposed to be or two aflida- zens, whose The defendauts are to appear before Judge Carson June 4. A'move is being made to have those who have violated the previous injunc- tions brought before the bar. Certitied copies of thes 'n‘jmmnuns ha cured, to be at! ing that the injunctions hav The penalties for thus violating se injunctions are heavy, and include both fine and imprisonment. 'The power is all 1n the hands of the judge. He can do about as he pleases, There isno chance for a jury trial, and no appeal, If the judge decides that the injunction has been violated, he has simply to impose the fine of $500 and send the transgressor to jul for six months, treating it as a contempt of court. With this sortof a club in sight the way of the transgressor is hard. Lt iy A Big Dime Show. King & Franklin’s circus showed yes- terday to large audiences. They have located on the corner of Broadwuy and Eighth street. and wili give two perform- ances to-day, it being the last day. The show is an excellent one, and far better than most 50-cent shows. Their price 15 only 10 cents each. Lhe grand entre is a finé one, and the act of La Role on the wire especially worth mention. The trick pony is worth the price of admission alone, as is also every act in the show. o e Police Court Points. William E. Cramer was yesterday morning fined $7.60 for slecping off a drunk on a pile of lumber. J. McIntosh and John Jenson was given a like amount each for being drunk and dis- turbing the peace, while John Ross, an ordinarydrunk, was fined $7.60.

R T ot B N R DRSS SR Treatment and Baths Given Ladies by Mrs. Dr. Richards on Tuesday, Thursday & Saturday. Electricity 1 a remarkable naturalagent which has long been known and utilized as a remedy for disease and continued experience has enlarged its sphere of useful- ness and improved its appliances by which it is employed until its utility and virtue has become second to no other known remedy, in the treatment of certain forms of disease. This agent is employed here in all its most serviceable forms by the aid of large batteries, statrc machines, electric cabinet baths, electric water baths, the elec- tric chair and electrodes for treating all parts of the body. We are prepared to do all that can be done with these great remedies. In cases of Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Paralysis, Spinal Irnitation, Rectal Diseases, Nervous Discases in females arising from Uterine disorders and many other chronic and subacute troubles, it stands at the head of all known remedies or methods cure. A thorough study of it for years and the successtul treatment of hundreds of cases, after all other remedies had fail- ed, is sufiicient evidence of its great worth and perfectly satisfies us with its d effects on the diseased body. ~ In the great hospitals and sanitarians of America and Europe, electricity is leading all other methods treatment. In all leading colleges the professors are teaching clectricity as one of the potent remedies and a special chair is appointed in many of them. Many of the ablest physicians of all schools are making a specialty of electricity to the exclusion of almost everythin, else. This great remedy has often fallen into disrepute by being recommended k] used by persons, and physicians, perfectly ignorant of its propertics and powers, who would as often advise use the wrong current as the right one or depend upon it in_diseases for which it is not adopted. We are sure that when the people become educated in the use of electricity for many diseases with which the body 1s afilicted and find the great good therein, the medicines and patent ri trums upon which they now rely will grow old and dusty on the shelves, Electricit, y is nature’s great remedy and to fully understand and skilfully apply it is our effort and aim in life, For further information call at the office or send for de- scriptive and illustrated pamphlet on Electricity and Electro Therapeutic Baths, by DR.
