It was expected that his attorneys, Mynster & Lindt, would spend a good portion of yesterday in orating to the jury, but to the surprise of all they concluded to sub- mit the case without argument. This cut the m'asenutini attorney out of an opportunity of making a strong, closing appeal, and put the matter at once in the hands of the jury, They retired with the general prediction that they would disagree. The caseof T. W. Castor was called, but as he did not apppear his bonds of $200 were forfeited. This was an appeal case from Neola, the defendant having there been found guilty of assault and battery and having taken an appeal. The grand jury found no bill against Emma Cole and Andrews, charged with adultery. ‘The husband of the woman was the complaining witness and he had been held in juil here until the case could be reached. te was lately released to g0 over to Omaha and secure his other witnesses and not returning the defend- ants were discharged.

THE WILLIE MORSE TRIAL. Competition Promises Very Cheap Gas--The Temple of Justics Crowned With a Lying Clock Face—Personal, Eccentric Sinners. Wilen Judge Aylesworth mounted the woolsack yesterday morning and called for the prisoners to be brought forth, the first to abpear was a distinguished look- ing, clerical sort of a young man, having asmooth shaven face, an abundance of curly locks, his eyes peering through a pair of gold-bowed spectacles, and he leaned himself against the fire pressure apparatus with the air of one posing for aportrait. He gave his name as Ses- sions and told his story ina manner which caused much merriment at his ex. pense. His position was unfortunate. He was a comedian, The company he had been with had *‘busted,” through no fault of his, leaving him in a rather rocky rond. He struck to Chicago, but found that there were about sev- enty-two others in like condition, from other companies, who had got there before him, Every lamp post was taken, and if there had been a yacaney, he could not have afforded to hold it up until he could secure & place with a salary. Chi- cago having a surplus of art, he “pushed towards “‘Omiha,” as he called 1t. He bought two mileage books, one holding a few miles, the other for several hundred. When he came to give them up to the conductor he discovered that one was lost. Of course it was the long term one, 80 he had to put up cash for the rest of the journey. He land here with one silver quarter as his only friend. He went to the Kiel house, registered, handed over his grip, and thought he would stroll out and find one of the Prescott troupe to effect a loan until he could get across the river, where he expected $50,which he had notitied one of his debtors to send to him to that point. He didn't find the fellow-actor whom he hoped to strike, and returning to the hotel told his condition and offered to leave his grip and overcoat for security until he could arrange his tinances more satisfac- torily. He concluded that he could oc- cupy & chair until morning, and then catch the troupe as they started for the depot, and get relief. hile thus wrest- ling with the problem whether life was worth Living, a policeman picked him up, conducted him to the station, and booked him for vagrancy. He searched him, and found m the watch ocket of s pantaloons $1.80. ie said it must have been there a long time and been overlooked by him. He concluded it was a good thing to be rounded up once in a while so as to get the police to discover assets which he had failed to find and which he needed baaly. He thought his experience behind the bars might serve to help him in the more naturally taking such parts on the stage, but still objected to the school of instruc- tion. He was let go with the one lesson and started out to free air, not forget- ting to warn the reporters not to give him away, as ‘‘the boys would devil the life out of him’'if they got onto it. Hence nothing will appear about it in the pa- = ers, 2 Charles Meyers was arrested for lar- ceny. He had been at work in Dave Gray's harness shop, and on hmvinfi some tools were missing. Gray foun them among Meyers' effects, and Meyers claimed that muyfnt mixed by mistake. On being arrested Meyers gave his name as Hanes, and was booked accordingly. When the judge asked him why he gave the wrong name he explainea that he did not want his wife to hear about it and was afraid she might read it in the pa- ers. He expected to get the matter sat- sfuctorily arranged with Gray and get out of the trouble. *‘A married man,” said the judge, ‘‘should never hide his troubles from his wife. She should be the first one for him to go to when in trouble, except, perhaps, when he gets in trouble with another worian.” Meyers ecame to some understanding with Gray, and went home to consider the advice. ———— Cheaper Gas Comiag. There are several gas companies seek- ing to get charters for supplying Council Bluffs, The time draws near for the ex- piration of the charter of the old com- pany, and this company asks for a re- newal of its charter and offers to reduce the price from the present high rates of $4 a thousand, 50 cents of for cash, down to$2 cash for private consumers and $1.75 for the city. The water gas com- pany is promising to putin an applca- tion with rates as low as $1 a thousand, and several other companies are tiguring on supplying the city at prices as low or lower thaan the old company offers. The citizens are delighted at the prospect of emancipation from the exhorbitant rates which have reigned for years here. This city has been paying more for light than any other city in this part of the country, and the result has been that the city has concluded to use electric lights, on masts, for the streets, and thus get more and better light, even if there is no reduction in the total expense. Private consumers are still left to either submit to the ex- orbitant gas rates, or substitute kerosene or somothing else for gas. The outlook is now beginning to look favorable for gas at rates which come within the reach of many who have been unable to use it heretofore, The competition between the several companies seeking charters is sharp enough to bring about a radical change. It seems that the result must be that gas consumers in this city will get rates very low as compared with the prices which have prevailed for years here. The peo- ple are foeling good on seeing that there s an opening of competition, They care little for the details ot the fight, but are looking forward with intense interest to tne outcome, beleving that it will prove favorable to the pocketbooks of all, ex- cept those who own the old plaut. st bl s bl The County’s New House, The prospect is good for the comple- tion of the new county court house by the 1st of January. The work on the wood finishing is progressing well. The casements in one room are already rubbed down so that the grain of the notural wood shows up finely, and gives an idea of how the interior of the whole building will appear. ‘[he artists are busy on the decorations, and in this respect the building will be more attractive than was expected, The ceilings in the court rooms have alreaay been seen by many, and have won much praise, The walls of one of these rooms haye been also decorated, the design bein drapery, with a ULorder above an a dado. In the rotunda there is some ex- cellent work being done 1n marble finish. The painters are at work also upon the ceiling of the tower. The tiles are being 1aid on the main floor, and the change by which a stronger coutrast 1s gained be- tween the white and dark squares gives amuch more pleasing effect than that which was first laid in the hallway as a sample, Outside the building the work- en are also busy. ‘The stone steps and agging are being put in place, with strong foundations of masonry.

George III. of England granted the tract to Thomas Jefferson, and Wash- ington very properly came down 1 con- sequence and cut his name on the rocks under the bridge. Coloncl Sam Kimberly of Norfolk, Va., yesterday inspected the signature. Colonel Kimberly is a much greater man in Norfolk, where he holds all the county offices, than Washington ever was u#s a young man. He is stout and emphatic, with eye-glasses, though good natured for an incredulous man. When aroused he stammers: ‘'S-seems to m-me,” he said, with some indignation, “that W-Washington m-must have sp-spent all his time g-goin’ round the c-country est-tablishing headq- quarters and c-cutting hisname. 1'll bet twenty d-dollars,” he continued, ‘‘that h-he w-was up on the p-piazza all the t-time d-drinking p-peach brandy with ole J-Jefferson and p- puid s-somebody to d-do that f-for him.” There is an American eagle clearly outlined on the face of the arch, 200 feet in the air. *‘Of course,” said the Norfolk cynic, “the e-eagle h-had to f-follow George. That r-rock there will b-break out into his p-profile p-pretty soon.” It is useless, however, to dispute the Washington memento, though how pa did 1t without a balloon is a mystery. Colonel Kim- berly’s theory, which is remote enoush to obtain wide acceptance in scientific circles, is that the p-presence of the eagle is due to the United States mint which grows all around.

TRIPLETS AND. TWINS, Description of the Cleveland and Hill Prize Bables. EAsT AUrRORA, N. Y., Sept. 16.—The talk of the county, and for that matter of the middle and eastern states duriog the l‘)rcsem week, has been the baby show eld in connection with the fair here. President Cleveland’s prize triplets bid fair to become famous. Fresents, invita- tions and letters from museum managers photographers, and even that bane of all celebrated people, cranks, are pouring in upon the xxliul. little household ut Fast Hamburg. Il sorts of suggestions and advice are in the cranks’ epistles, and Albert Dart, farmer, it his head was not very level, would soon become Albert Dart, triplet manager and lunatic. ‘The effect of President Cleveland’s re- ward of merit or stimulus to an infant industry, whichever it may be called, has been unlooked for. In the county where the beautiful bride of the white house and her husband were bred and raised, the president is loudly n{;plnuded for the direction his liberality has taken. The fact of the matter is that Mr. Cleveland, being importuned to help the new fair association, put down his name for $10, and Manager Hubbard turned the act into the channei through which it reached and made world-famous Ida, Mollie and Ray Dart, the prize trio. Little Ida Dart, the rose between two thorns” ranks first in the group, both by virtue of her sex and birth. It was shortly before noon on October 22, 1885, when 1da was ushered into the world. The mother was under the influence of ether,and Malcom and Ray were both on the scene of life by 4 o’clock. When Mrs. Dart recovered from the effects of the anwsthetic she inquired anxiously: “‘Is my baby born?" ‘You have three children,” answered the physician, and the mother fainted. ‘The triplets weighed 27 pounds at birth and gained steadily. Scarcely a day of sickness was credited to them, and the mother says she never expects to have less lrouhf; with one baby, should she be blessed again, than the ‘‘trips’’ have given her. 4 The two boys are hardly distinguish- able apart, but [da 18 not so large as her’ brothers. Mrs. Dart told your corre- ondent that the three played to- gether and in mosi respects acted in uniformity. Albert Dart, the proud sire of the fa- mous triplets, is a good-looking young farmer of thirty years, who has to keep busy to make both ends meet. The couple have never exhibited the children until urged to do so at this fair. Itis ossible that the tempting offer from a owery museum in New York will result in breaking up Mr, Dart’s farming plans in East Hamburg. Governor Hill's prize colored twins, Romeo and Juliet, are perhaps the most interesting pair of infants,to the bachelor eye, that ever attained fame. ‘I'he gov- ernor is a hardened bachelor, but his $25 was freely given 1n encouragement of the colored barber, of Pittsburg, and his dusky wife. (George Johnson is the well-to-do pro- prietor of a tonsorial establishment in the Smoky City. Like the Dart family, Mrs. Johnson's twins were her “‘first oflense,”’ as Cadeus says in “Erminie, and no dime museum could ever tempt Romeo and Juliet or their parents, from the threshoid of their own nouse. Only through personal solicitation were the parents induced to bring their children to the show here, and their they were a COUNCIL BLUFFS CARPET (0, 405 BROADWAY, Council Bluffs, - Iowa THE FALL SEASON Having opened, the time for purchasing heavy clothing approaches and every one wishes to know wliere to go to get the best quality for the least money.
