THE NEWS IN COUNCIL BLUFFS Iron Bars Tor the Wind Music Given By the Floashy Drum Major, FUNERAL OF JOHN TIERNEY. The Plans For the Chautauqua Assem- bly in Council Bluffs—A Susple cious Pair Arrested For Rob- bing a Ticket Office. The Drum Major at Home. ‘‘Major’ Carbee arrived home yester- day morning over the Chicago, Milwau- kee & St. Paul. He was in company with Chief Mullen. There wus quite a crowd at the depot to meet him, as his sudden departure and his sensational coming back interested many of the mi- litia and the musicians. When he got out of the car he was still clinging to the two batons, which he carried away with him, and which aided so materially in his identification when the telegraphic orders were rent out for his arrest. ‘The patrol wagon was in_ waiting, and he marched along in sad contrast to the buoyant manner of his strut at the head of the holiday processions. He was taken to the county jail, and there given ertcrs until he can have a hearing. yhen arrested thero was found on his person only $17. He had a ticket for Lafayette, Ind.,, and his baggage was checked to that place. On the return with the chief of police he talked far less than is his wont, bnt when he saw the erowd of old acquaintances and anxious creditors at the depot, his tem- DET Zave wi He ranted and cursed on eing 1n ewed at the jail, and ex- pressed hot indignation at the numerous charges made against him. His state- ment, boiled downed, was to the effect that he did not skip at all, but simply going on a visit to mother, intendin, to return in a few days. He took with him the dashy drum major’s uniform to show the old lady. He never intended to wrong anybody out of a cent. He was coming back soon and intended to return the money which he had belonging to the band, the amount, as he claimed, being only $22. What about the checks he had issued paying for board and for clothes? He had drawn the checks on the bank beeause he expected $#200 from his mother, and thought it would be here in time to meet the checks. Metealf Bros., who had sold him a suit of clothing, and who had taken one of the worthless checks in payment, at- tached his trunk and it took about half of the cash found on him to pay the costs, He had a gold watch which he had pur- chased of Jnc(f\mlnin & Co., and on which there had not been a great deal paid. This was taken by this firm. This closed out the available assets. Max Mohn, of the Creston house, where he boarded, got an old white hat which Car- bee left behind. ‘“That hat cost me $14,”" and Max put it on with a satistied air at getting off so easily. Inquiry about the the city shows that Carbee has been run- ning billsall over the city. 1tissaid that he made false representations, to some declaring that he was getting a large commission for selling lumber, to others that he was owner of the yards. For some time he has been very anxious to get a position in some church choir. Money was no object. He would sing for the good of the cause. Last Sunday he did succeed in getting an invitation to sing with one of the choirs. At the close of the service he volunteered his services to drill the choir, and arranged to be with them at their rehearsal last evening. He was not there. He was studying different bars. He ulso talked to the pastor about his wonderful travels through the holy Jand, He had visited Gethsemene, and had bécn 2!l over the sacred soil. He volunteered to give the SUFGAY sci00] nia address on this subject whenever the pastor desired. While at Melbourne, in charge of the chief of police, and waiting for a train to bring him to this city, the drum major improved the time by drilling the band there. It was by his own desire, and the chief consented to letting him do so. Chief Mullen kept close on his heels as he went through the various evolutions, and gave him no chance to skip. He soon tired the chief, and was invited to walk over to the depot and there waited. It is learned that the flashy drum major was parading under an alias. His' real name appears to be Howara Hawk, and his home is said to have been in the east- ern part of the state, although he has been away for some time, at Denver, Fremont and other places. His recor as Hawk is said to have been rather dusky. —— Death of John Tierney. The funeral of John Tierney who died Friday evening at St. Joseph hospital, Omaha, will take place from the Catholic church here to-day at 2:30. Mr. Tierney wasthe victim of a railrond accident which proved fatal on the 20th mst and it is the pleasure of one, who knows, to state that before his death he had the full use of his reason and ex- pressed belief in all the sentiments of the Catholic church, The statement made by some of the papers that exces- sive drink was the cause of death is an njnstice to his memory, there being no truth to it. ———— The Chautauqua Move, There many inquiries as to what is the plan of the proposed Chautauqua assem- bly, being organizea here. The movers in the enterprise, who are securing sub- scriptions to the stock, are met with the query so frequently that it scems there is little known about such assemblies. It 1s difficult to explain all the details of the plans. 1In general the purpose is to hold here every an assembly which will be a pattern after the large and success- ful one held at Lake Chautauqua. The movement is to secure at once 100 acres of land, and to build amphitheaters, din- ing halls, etc. The grounds are to be _beautified, and all needed accommoda- tions afforded so that during the summer season those desiring rest and recreation can enjoy themselves by camping there, or hy “using summer houses. Be- sides = this opportunity for ghy- sical rest, there will be a school held, classes organized, iu music, art, literature, ete. There will be entertain- ments also lectures from mea of national reputation, concerts and scientific exhi- bitions. One gentleman, who visited Ottawa last season, illustrates the work- ings of such uiumb‘lles. by the fact that one of the dnys when he was there was termed “Veterans’ Day.”” There were 29,000 {N‘oplo on the grounds that day. Old soldiers camein from all parts of the state. The late General Logan was the chief speaker, and addresses were deliv- ered by others. Another day was for Sunday schools, and leading workers in that line were present. There is a con- stant change of prog In the music line, for instance, such a man as Prof. Sherwin, of Boston, is engaged,and after drilling classes for ten tfnyl or more, gives a grand concert, in which some of the leading singers of the state participate. Such mien us Talmadge are enpxed to lecture, ‘Che arrangements are so made that all this costs but a trifle to ecech attendadt, and the expenses are .ot by having such crowds drawn to (he grounds to hear these celebrated men sud to enjoy these privileges. The movement here starts off very encouragingly, and several have alveady pledged ‘l, eanch as a first sub- scription. It is believed that when the full plan is understood shere will it tle difficulty in secnring enough means to make the entergflse a wonderful suc- cess, The nssemblies last for several weeks auring the summer, and bring thousands of people together, —_———— A Buspscted Pair. Yesterday morning the police arrested two young men who gayve their names as Elmer Wright and William Abbott. They answered the description of two who were wanted at Des Moines, on sus- vicion of haying robbed the Des Moines oftice of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy passenger depot, the amount taken |m‘"lf 50, The young men were held until the arrival of an officer from that eity. Their cases were investigated, but no proof could be obtained sutlicient to hold them. They admitted hfivm:i been in Des Moines, and they had walked out to a station this side of there, where they took the train for this city. They had each a few dollars in money, and had express receipts for their bag- gage, which they had shipped through from Colfax, one of the pair being en route for Red Cloud, Neb., the other going to Kansas, They had no such sum of money as had been taken, and denied knowing about the robbery. As the money was sneaked out of the office while the ticket agent was out for a few minutes, there was litule to fasten any such charge upon them. They were accordingly allowed to go free. ——— Pacific house is the nearest hotel to the majority of real estate offices in the city; $2 per day.

L fortin o PROHETIC DREAMS. A Minister who Heard of Garfield's Nomination in His Sleep. San Francisco Chronicle: At a gather- ing of clergymen in this city during the past week the subject of dreams came under discussion, and opinions were found to differ greatly on the question whether the deity sometimes fortells to his servants coming events in their slum- bers. All were agreed upon the testi- mony of the scriptures that this was often done in ancient times, but some of them were of the opinion that such reve- lations, through the medium of dreams, belonged to a past dispensation,and were unknown at the present day. On the other hand, some of “the min- isters maintained stoutly that God was ‘“the same yesterday, to-day and forever,”” and that the heavens were as open to mortals by might as well as Jay, agBverynuy o3, T sustain this view several remarkable Instindes were related by one and another of the clergy- men, going to show that coming events are sometimes revealed in dreams at this day. The most striking of these was re- lated by Rev. Mr. Bodkins, editor of the Southern California Advocate, a Method- ist paper published at Los Angeles. He stated that he was by no meansdisposed to credulity or superstition, but as a matter of fact he had on several occasions been wmstructed of far distant and coming events in dreams of the night. The death of his mother had thus been dis- tinctly revealed to him, and the nomina- tion of General Garfield for president by the republican convention at Chicago in 1880. He said that he was, at the time, in a little country town In Iowa, nine mnules from the count seat. There was no lolegm‘)h communi- cation and the mails were slow and in- frequent. He was greatly interested in the issue,anxious for Blaine’s nominasion and impatient to hear theresult, He had not heard or thought of Garfield as a candidate and barely knew of him ana his record. One night ne dreamed and a distinet voice aanounced to him that James A, Garfield was nominated unani- mously. He could hardly believe 1t; but the news was confirmed the next day. Although his dream was so distinct, and notwithstanding his past experiences in this line, he was so doubtful that he would not tell his dream until the truth wus conlirmed. It could nut be ac- counted for, he smd, by his previous thoughts on the matter or what he had heard sad, for no one about him talked of Garfield or imagined that he, as “‘the dark horse,”” might win the race. - A Fight Under Water. A diver named Quintree, says the Lon- don Daily Telegraph, had a remarkable tight with &_formidable fish called the boultous or bondro, a kind of shark which infests the Breton coast, at Douarnenez, the other day. According to allaccounts Quiniree had a narrow escape, and his own report of his terrible submarine en- counter reads like a stanza form Schiller’s famous poem, or a page from ond ot Jules Verne's romances. The diver, av old sall, was employed by the government, and in purenit of his daily labor duly descended 1n a diving apparatus off the Douarnenez pier for the purpose of laying the foundation of an addition to that structure. While he was at the bottom of the sea the men who were working the air pump in the pon- toon boat above were suddenly fright- ened by feeling the alarm signal. They instantly pulled up and brought a large boultons, nearly eight feet long, to the surface, The marine monster’s head formed three-quarters of his length and his under jaws were of immense size. Shortly afterward Quintree came up, his hand on the air pipe of his helmet and his diving apparatus somewhat dam- aged. Klt appears that when he went down to his work he had scarcely got to the last rung of the ladder when he saw the sea monster lying between the two huge lumps of rock. He had in bis bands only his stone chisel and a hammer, and he intended to go up for a crowbar at once, but the fish was too fast for him. It came toward him through the green water with itsenormous jaws wide open. Without loninfi a moment Quintree man= aged to wound the animal in the throat with his chisel, and then held it down on & stone while he drew his knife and made a hole in its body, through which he passed a rope, aud thus sent the fish to the surface. Had it not been for his quickuess and dexterity the diver, owing to the rents which the fish would make in his appara- tus, would have been drowned and then been devoured. As it happened,it was the boultous that was not only defeated but eaten, for its body was divided amon, the victor and his comrades, who made & capital bouillabaisse of its prime parts.
