Surveyor Brodbeck will to-day look after the motor line crossings and get the correct angles for them.

The board of trade seems to be sleep- ing at the very time when it should be awake. There are a number of enter- prises which should receive the aitention of this body, which has done so much in the past to advance the interests of the city. A meeting shoold be held at an early date, and a full attendance had to take action concerming some of the moves now on foot, in which business men generally are interested, The Union Veteran Legion has ar- ranged to have a pleasing entertainment Monduy night next. “The Fightin Chaplain’’ Lozier is to be here, and w dehver one of his inimitable lectures, in- terspersing it with songs and recitations. He is said to be a host in himself.

LOVE PEEKS THRO' THE BARS A Bridegroom 8pending His Honeymoon in Jail For Forgery, THE COLORED FOLKS' DAY, A Quarrelsome Couple Held Together By a Baby—Schurz Still After Fees—Picnics and Per- sonals. A Honeymoon in Jall. The course of true love rolled into Judge Aylesworth’s court yesterday on & writ of habeas corpus. The chief hero- ine in the romance was a young man named Charles Wilkins, whose home is in Pacitic Junction. Young Wilkins be- came acquainted with a tender maiden at Glenwood, Lulu C. O'Brien, who is only sixteen years of age, and whose mother, now Mrs. Elizabeth Reynolds, is a widow. The acquaintance dated back to the winter months. The mother learn- ing that the young man was given some- what to drink, and that there were other habits which rendered him objectionable to her, forbid his going with the girl any more. After this their meetinge ¢ on the quiet, but they continued de- spite the mother's protestations, Last week the young folks decided to marry. ‘I'ne mother of course would not consent, and so there little use of consulting her about it. Young Wilkins sent a friend to County Clerk Robinson to get a license for them, but this friend learned tnat 1t would be necessary for some one disinterested to make aflidavit that the parties were of age, or the written con- it of the mother 1 ve produced Young Wilkins then came himself. He was told the same thing, and informed the clerk that if he would make out a cer- titicate for the mother to sign he would sce that the signature wag obtained. The blank was prepared, and Wilkins went away, only to return about supper time with it signed with what pur- ported to be the autograph of the mother, giving her consent to the mar- riage of the girl. The license was ac- cordingly 1ssued, and the young man went off to get the knot tied. here was a circus in town, and all the justices and the preachers seem to have been in at- tendance, so that the couple had to wait for the show to be over. About 11 o'clock at might they found Justice Tolles at his house. and with some difficulty they al layed his suspicions sufliciently for him to take the fee and tie the knot. Then they hurried away to Pacitic Junction, The girl not returning home the irate and anxious mother started on the war-path. She found the bridal party about sur She had & warrant sworn out and th bridegroom arrested on the charge of uttering a forged instrument, she ha never signed her name to the certificate purperting to be her consent to the mar- ringe. The same justice who married them tried the case.” He decided that the young man should be held over to await the action of the grand jury, and plrced the bonds at $500. Not being able to furnish them the bridegroom went to jail with a good prospect of spending his honeymoon there, as the grand jury does. not meet until in October. He' secured the legal services of E. Starbuck, who filed an application for & writ of h: corpus. The hearing was had y County Attorney Genung, of H: and P, P, Kelley, of Glenwood, appeared for the state, ‘The prisoner was present in custody of Deputy Sherift W. A, Haw- er. ‘The evidence taken on the preliminary hearing was introduced. It consisted. of a complete rehearsal of the courtship and marriage, interspersed with racy bits of oppot n on the part of the mother-in-law. that although the mother of the girl had ordered him away from the house, the zirl had told him about a week before the marriage that the mother would give her consent. When he got the certificate from the county clerk, for the mother’s signature, he thought it was better for the girl to ask for the consent than for him to doso. He took the paper to the house where he thought the girl was, but she not being there he lett it with a wo- man to hand to her. Later in the day the girl handed him the certiticate all signed, and he did not know but what it was all right until the next murmmi when the mother hunted him up and raised a row. Judge Aylesworth after hearing the arguments, decided to remand the young man to jail, and refused to lessen the amount of the bonds. The mother seems ermined not to let him enjoy the mar- e relations ( which he won by such subterfuge, and insists that she will prosecute her new son-in-law to the bit- ter end. The girl seems devoted to him, and testifies, so far as she can, in his be- half. —_—— To Excursion Parties, The excursion steamer and barge John M.

He gave his name as Tom Lafey and residence No. 225 Tenth ave- nue. His wife, a siender little woman, with a baby in her arms, came into the room just as the case was called. The husband took the babe out of her arms and handed her a chair in a gallant man- ner, as if to conciliate her, but the cour- tesies apparently came too late. Despite an impediment in her speech, she rattled off her story of abuses at a terrible speed. 1f half that the woman told 18 true the fellow mneeded a whip instead of a jail. She said he was a terror to her, She had to get up 1n the morning, chop the wood and get breakfast while he slevt, but she wus willing to do this it he would only treat her lhike a decent woman and not like n dog. After doing all kinds of work she was slapped and cursed whenever he ;,iul a little mad about anything. He had driven her from the house in her night dress and she had becn once kno i down by him .the blow iu her face caus- ing the blood to form a pool on the tloor. The other nignt she ran out of the house with her baby in her arms because he was :llnpinf her, and went to some neighbors. He chased her and insisted her giving the baby to him. When asked what he had to say about all this, at first he declined to sn{ any- thing, but when he got started he was quite talkative. He charged the woman with going to places w he did pot deem proper, and 5om¢ against his wishes often expressed to her, 1f it was not for the baby he would skip town and leave her. 1fthe baby died, which it would if it didn’t get better care than she was giving it, he would leave at once and not wait to bury it. Her own sister had udvised him to leave her, Judge Aylesworth tried to effect some reconciliation, but was not very success- ful. The woman at last said she did not want him fined or sent to jail. She needed hus support, and there seemed no other way bnt to muke another trial, The judge advised them to avoid both ¥'lnng mad at the saine time, and thought they could get along if they could stick to this sud oply ape get mad at a timg, The young man claimed } THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: thus keoplnp their turns they might live together. The two went off up the street, the man cartying the baby, but so far ahead of the“woman who followed behynd that it seemed the couple were not going home in a very loving frame of Tind. The rows between them have been a rent disturbance to the neighbors, but here scemed no one to care for the woman and her baby if the man was locked up. —— After His Fees. In the superior court yesterday the taking of testimony in the case of Justice Schurz against the county was concluded. The arguments will be made this after- noon. Among the fees claimed by him, and which the county refuses to allow, are some for cases which he tried during the absence of Judge Aylesworth. It is claimed by the county attorney that the informations were filed, and the warrants {ssued by Clerk Burke, ot the superior court, and that afterwards when Justice Schurz came to try the cases he entered the fees for information, warrant, ete., on his docket. The other side of the statement 1s that the clerk drew these under the direction of Justice and that the se8 being 1n Schurz’s court the fees certainly belonged to him, Yesterday a number of attor- were called on to testify concernin, cases in which they had been engaged, and an attempt made by the county at- y to prove by them that in these there were not so many continu- S as wel arped in Justics Schurz’s fee bill, ana that bonds were not filed, although charged on the docket. There was not much headway made on this line of defense. 'These matters had been quite fully explained by the justice. The ceiling of one of the court rooms of the county’s new mansion is finished. The decorations are quite showy, and the county evidentiy is getting its money’s worth from the artists. The work of decorating the ceiling of the other court room will now commence, The other vurlrlk about the building is progressing well. ‘The jewelry man who worked Council Bluffs recently and who has been visiting other cities in this vicinity, arreste at Denison the other day, and held tor trial in the sum of $300. He can easily pay such bail from the proceeds of eatch- ing suckers. It is estimated that the fellow took about $7,000 from his corner sales here alone.

This nb- jection is due to a misconception of the true objectsand aims of education, and to an 1mperfect knowledze of what is meant by workshop 1nstruction. To as- sume that the best education can be given through the medium of books only, and cannot be equally well obtained from the study of things, is n survival of the me- diwvalism against which nearly all mod- ern educational authorities protest. But thereis another und more deeply-rooted errorin_ this ument. People often talk and write as if school-time should be utilized for teaching those things which a child is not likelyto care to learn in after life; whereas, the real aim of school education should be to create a desire to continue in after life the pursuit of the knowledge and the skill uired in school. In other words, th hool should be made, as far as possible, a prepara- tion for the whole work of life, and should naturally lead up to it. The en- deavor of all educators should be to es- tablish such a relation between school in- struction and the occupations of life as to prevent any break of continuity in passing from one to the other. The meth- ods by which we gain information and experience in the busy world should bve 1dentical with those adopted 1n schools, ——— Rio De Janeiro. From a letter received from a friend on board the Thetis, bound for Alaska, the following extract 1s taken: Here we are atlast at Rio. It took us twenty days to come from Barbadoes, and it seemed a 10ng time to be at sea. You know now is the very middle of winter for this place, so the thermometer rarely ever «ets above 8) deg. in midday and down to 66 at night. The dew is something frightful, everything is dripping in the morning, The harbor of Rio and the ap- prooch to it are the most beautiful I have ever seen, The hills all around rise to great heights night out of the s and al- most all around” Rio the mountains are very high. We have taken surface cars to the suburbs of the city, and long walks into the country. There is ono hill called “Cancovado,” w is 2,230 feet high and which has a railroad up its side to the summit and a pavilion on ton. When you are about nine-tenths of the way up there is a sta- tion wh you getofl'and walk along the side of the mountain on a well made road along which is an aqueduct which catehes all the water from' the mountain, and carries it to the city. After you have walked about three miles along this road you come to a bridge,called tne “Devil's bridge,” because it is so rotten that it is very dangerous to cross, so that nAalb foaathntly tatlhraoahe L as o —they fall only 2,000 teet or more. Of course we went across, but I must con- fess 1 was glad to get back safely, and have no desire to go over it again. The city 1s a very slow place; there is no opera, and no public buildings that amount to anything, and the people don't amount to very much, either, but the country is beautiful without any doubt, and so are the little parks and squares in the city.
