Mr. Casey’s team started from his feed store on lower Broadway last evening and made a lively run the whole length of the street, out beyond the end of the street car line. Luckily no one was in- jured, although there were several nar- Tow escapes. Equity and civil cases are occupying the attention of the district court this week.

He claims that he turned over all the money he collectqd, although there are some things that look rather suspicious. An investigation will proba- show a ltile crooked work some- where. Oun Monday last a son of Mr. John Scanlan and” William Lavenburg were engaged in killing stock when the hand of the latter came into contact with the knife he wus using.

A TEXAS TEAM OF RUNAWAYS, Catholic Ladies Busy With Bazar Preparations—Unfalr Scwer As- sesaments — McDougal Lia- ble to Be Looked Up. Where Is the Union Depot? What has become of the union depot enterprise? No very definite or satise factory answer follows the many repeti- tions of the query. There are whisper- ings that the men having an active management of the aflair are not wholly inactive, but are moving as rapidly as they well can in view of the magnitude of the enterprise. These are whisperings, however, and the general feeling is that the enterprise is being allowed to fall nto a fatal slumber. This ought not so to be. Among the many new enter- prises which have been the outcome of this year of boom, none is of more im- portance, except, perhaps, the bridge and that hardly more so. The local depots of this city are a disgrace, not only to the railways which use them but to the city itselt. The real union depot is whatis known as the transfer, and that is located far distant from the center of the city and is used but little for local traflic, The city has shown a disposition to help along the en- rprise of a new union depotto any le- gitimate extent. There seems to be no real obstacle in the way of speedily se- curing this depot. Unless there are some underhanded and hidden hindrances the enterprise is apparently retarded’ by lethargy. Several of the railways cen- tering in this city have through their officials expressed themselves as being favorable to such a depot, It has been openly declared time and time agan that the reason rickety old shells oalled de- pots were not replaced by suitable build- ings was that it would soon come to E““ that a fine, large union depot would o built, and that the shells were there- fore retained for temporary use only. The Union Depot company tiled a bond with the city that if ‘Tenth avenue was given up to the Union Pacific the union depot would be built, and the Union Pacitic, which has been looked upou as rather hostile to the enterprise, has over the signature of President Adams pledged itzelf not only not to oppose the scheme, but to co-operate in it and work with the Iowa roads for its completion and occupancy. The improvements being made by the nion Pucific indicate that it will not be long before, as hus been intimated long ago, the present buildings at the transfer would be needed by the company for freights and other business, so thut the building of a union depot up town would not cause them the expected loss by the abandonment of the large and costly transfer for passenger purposes. The enterprise is apparently simply waiting for a waking up. How that can best be accomplished is a question, The citizens should take some action speedily. prateTaag An Unfair Assessment, Mayor Groneweg has been examining the causes of complaint concerning the assessment for the Fifth avenue sewerage and he embodies his ideas in the follow- ing communication, which he has placed in the hands of a council committee, to- gether with the other papers in the case: Gentlemen ot the Council: 1 desire to call your attention to the mode of assessing the cost of construction of seweraje against fronting and abutting property : Heretofore, I belleve, it has been the cus- tom to charge the actual cost of the sewer to the property, that is if there was a neh sewer It was so charged, or if there was a larger sewer it was also charged at its actual cost. 'This, I claim, is radically wrong 1f car- ried out in the future, and if there has been a mistake made before it is now high teme to correct it, before the new special assessinent is made for the sewerage now being con- structed. The location of our city is so pe- culiar that the former mode of taxation would be inequitable and be unjust to a great number of our citizens, for the reason that where our largest and therefore most ex- ]mmve sewers are constructed the property s a great deal cheaper than in that portion of the eity where a smaller sewer is sufticient and I contend that the sewers in the lower part of town are constructed more for the vurpose to furnish an outlet to the sewers in the upper part of town than for sewering the locality in which they are bui Section 117 of the laws ot lowa, relating to cities of the first class, rezulates the mode of paying for the construction of sewers and it points out four distinct methods for the assassing and collection of such tax, and it further suggests thatany two ot these methods may be pursued. ‘There being so many ditferent ways to ad- iust this matter in an amicable way, just and air to all concerned, and thinKing this of the highest importance, I would recommend that the tinance committee look into this, and take the advice of the citv attorney, and, if necessary, other legal advice, and report at the earliest opportunity a system of assessing the cost of sewerage which shall be equitable to all, and whicn may thereby facilitate the prompt payment of this part of our tax. Respectfully submitted, W Giie EWEG, Mayor. Another Chautauqua Rally. The move for securing a Chautauqua assembly here is one which interests 80 many and is of such vital importance to the city that one general meeting is to be held in the hopo that this gathering will cause the closing up of all the pre- liminary arrangements necessary. The committee of arrangements haye planned for a grand rally at the opera house Sunday evening, and it is exvected that most, and probably all the churches of the city will so arrange their services as to leave all free to unite in this meet- ing. It 18 necessary that the needed amount of subscriptions should be se- cured at once, if this city is to have its opening assembly next summer. Those cities which have such assemblies are already arranging their programmes for next season, and there is much prelimi- nary work to be done here. Those hav: ing the matter in hand wisely prefer to have a sure iinancial basis before mak- ing any contracts or getting into any complications, The rally Surcday night will be for the purpose of hastening the completioh of these arrangements, — L Clnge of the Federal Oourt. The closing case of the present term of the United States court was that of Ham- ilton vs Pearcy. This was & suit growsr ing out of a corn conttact. The plaintiff and defendant went into an agreement for cribbing about 100,000 bushels of corn at Neola, and this was to be sold under certain agreements at an assured profit, or else be held for a certain period of time. ‘The suit involves several thousand dollars, and has been in the courts for some time. The court was in session last evening and the case will be closed this morning so us to adjourn, The two principal criminal cases have been continued. "One was that in which Crawford, a former mail clerk, was charged with purloining some registered packages at the transfer, where he was employed. He has given bail in the sum of $3,000, The other was that of C. H. Converse, the Oukland attorney, who was charged with sending obscene letters through the mails, it being an apparent outgrowth of a family trouble, he and his wife having been divorced. Converse has given #2,500 bail and had his case continued. The defenaant claims that he isinnocent, and the proof being purely. circumstan- tial, involving the question of identific: tion of hand writing, he and his friends feel confident of a vindication in due time. —— Every one mukmfi cash purchase of 25 cents at ‘I’ D.

Leeds, of Mineola, was the victim of & runaway accident. Lately he purchased a teamn of Texas ponies, with which to deliver meat to his country customers, he being a butcher engaged in selling principally among the farmers, A few dayy ago the ponies indulged in a run, and smashed about fifteen dollars worth of spokes and straps. Yesterday the same team started into & run, about a mile and a half from this city, near Benton’s place. He was just opening a gate when th onies started. He jumped for their heads, but missing a hold, grabbed the reins and was draggzed some distance, when the reins gave way und the ponies continued the run until” & barbed wire fence served an injunction on them. When Leeds gathered what there was left of himself he found that besides a eneral shaking up and numerous ruises, he had a bad wound in the right arm, the supposition being that an iron of the wagon brake had struck him, entering the flesh clear to the bone. He hastened to this city, and had his injuries cared for by Dr. Robertson. - Dr.J, T.

Chief Engineer Templeton undertook to prove to several reporters, Tuesday night, that the fire alarm system was working all right, and the result was very satisfactory. An alarm was turned in from box tifty-four, at the corner of First axenue and Eighth street, and in 2:38 Rescue No. 3 hose cart was on the ground, having gone seven blocks. No. 1 hose was seventy seconds later, and No. 1 hook and ladder still a minute later, having to go nine blocks. No. 1 hose was delayed by one of the horses going back into his'stull. The test was as fair as could be, the men being in bed at the time, and knowing nothing what- ever of tae mtended move. The chief had no intimation of the proposed until he was awakened at u f after midnight, so no extra pre| had been made. The alarm worked as perfectly as could be, and the time was very good. A system is not far from per- fect when an alarm can be sent half a mile, and have a 1 hine on the scene in two minutes and a half.

Having been incarcerated since his arrest the court adjudged the punish- ment commensurate to the oftense and suspended the execution of the sentence during good behavior.

The chickén roost of Farmer Bob Gentry, who lives about eight miles north of Williamsbarg, had been twice raided by some wild animal, and Mr. Gentry, who examined the footprints, said it was a bear. He and his neighbors took their guns and dogs and hunted the moun- tuins for two or three days, but they found nothing. Thev concluded that the bear was not pleased with the taste of the fowls in Whiteley and had emi- rated to another county,where he might find morsels more suited to the taste of an ursine epicure, ‘They gave up the hunt. Last Sunday was baptizing dn,Y at the New Salem Baptisc church which stands on the banks of South Fork creck, one mile south of Farmer Gentry’s. The con- gregation on that day was much larger than usual. In the mountains a baptism is a great event. Everybody goes. This was a big one. There were twelve con- verts, cight men and four women, to be immersed, The preliminary services in the chureh lasted two hours, and the building was erowded. The Rev. Mr. Bell preached one of his great sermons, Five persons came forward to the mourn- er's bench., the sermon all went out to the baptism. The creek is very shallow in some places, and the preacl had to go quite a distance in order to cure & plas eep enough for the imme sion. At a point where it entered a channel between two hills his enterpri ing parishoners had built & dam across stream, and the water was up to a man’s waist. The hills on either side rose prelty steeply and were covered with trees and underbrash. At the foot h was a narrow picce of level sward, on which the congregation assembled. Preacher Bell wadea into the water i i on the bank began first person was immersed. ontinued without hindrance h convert was reached, ill the wife of one of the most provident farmers in Whitley county, and her confession of the Baptist faith haa been a source of great pride to the good Mr. Bell and the members of his congregation. She wus a large woman, turning thescale of two hundred, and some of the wicked boys were very doubtful of Mr. Bell’s ability to go through the ceremony with her without accident. The woman waded into the water, and the full chorus of the hymn of praise echoed back from the mountain side .n8 she stood with her eyes closed ready to be plunged under the wate Mr. Bell reached out his hands woman on the bank uttered a “Look there!”’ she sereamed, poting to the hill back of hér on the south side of tho stream. A large black animal was serambling through the trees and over the rocks toward the crowd. ‘A bear!”’ shouted the men. They had left their weapons at home. Oaeof them picked up a boulder and threw it at the ammal, striking him on the tflank. Bruin arowled und uccelerated his approach. All the baptizers fled in dismay. Those who were on the same side of the water with the bear jumped into the stream, and, gaiming the other bank, ran toward their homes. Mr, Bell abandoned Mrs, Estill in the middle of the stream, and, leaving his ooat on the bank, joined the fugitives. Mrs. Estill was sorely frightened, but she couldn’t faint in the middie of the stream, She attempted to reach the shore, but ber dress, inflated by made her progress slow, and be- fore she could do 8o the bear was vpon the bank. Here the animal stopped to devour a hymn book, and while he was mastieating it Mrs, Estill reached dry ground, atd, in spite of her stoutness, was soon muking rapid progress toward home. When it had been ascertained that all of the congregation were safe, a dozen men armed _themselves and sturted out to hunt the irreverent bear. ‘T'hey went back to the scene of baptisal, but he had gone, first having lunched oft of the hyn books that” had been abandoned, and torn the munister’s coat into little strips. From the creek the bear’s foot- steps led into the hills, where his trail was lostin therocks: The dogs were put on the scent, and after a chase of live hours the bear was discovered on the other side of the mountain in a thicket, The dogs ran him oat, and a couple of balls dispatched him. He was brought to Wil ourg, and with the hide on he weighed 467 pounds. He was one of the biggest bears ever killed in these parts. THE TYPICAL AMERICAN. A Pacitic Coast Oracle Says He Has Not Yet Appeared. San Francisco Chronicle: In a recent conversation with the prince of Wales, Mr, Blaine selected Chauncey M. Depew as the typical American and Mr. Depew in his turn pointed out Governor Alger, of Michigan, as the typical American. The truth is thatneither was right, nor can the typical American be identitied, for the very conclusive and satisfactory reason that he does not exist. A few years ago the English were dis- posed to accept the overdrawn and exag- gerated portrait of a slab-sided, luntern- jawed down east Yankce as a typical American, and he has passed into h tory as Brother Jonathan., His picture still adornsthe pages of the comic 1llus- trated papers both at home and abroad, but it has come to be well understood, even 1n Great Britmin; that it is pure car- icature, and thatif such a portrait could resemble any Americans it would be only those from a small portion of the United States, a portion, too, where cniture and elegauce of manner and diction has reached as high o pitch as anywhere in the world. Later on Bret Harte gave to the world his John Oakhursts and John Hamlins, and then Europeans suid: *Behold the typical American, 1 born on the Atlantic coast, retaining his early educa- tion, grace and suavity, but overlaid with the bronzed hue boundless prairies and lofty mountains of the great west and grown into a distaste for ventionalities and Phlistinism.” But we know that the Oakhursts and E were purely imaginary and were ty nothing that ever did or could exist in America, We have had the typical souths erner and the typical westerner and the typical Yankee. Across the pages of our literature have marched pik iers and tar-heels and crackers; we | been inundated with floods of char: sketches and dialect tal we have studied and phlluh){‘lh‘d over Cable and Uncle Remus and Miss Murfrees; we have compared the native of one part of the country with the native of another, and still the typical American has not been discovered. Anierica is entirely too cosmopolitan to furnish, as yet, any one of h i- zens who can be accepted as the typical American, Our population is to-day more diverse than when the tnirteen colonies were scttled, As a nation we are a unit, but as a peopie, in the eth- nological sense, we have not yet com- menced to exist. And why should we? No race was ever formed inso short a time as has elapsed since the settlement of America, to say nothing of the con- stant accessions to our lwpulnliou from every country in the world. be in 1,000 years from now we all have begun to develop the typi American, but not shortof that time. We can point the prince of Wales to tyves of certain American traits and cap- abilities, and of these Governor Alger 18 a good example, notably of the oppor- our country offers to young men of energy and industry, but that 18 as far as we can As for the thoroughly typical Amer- tunities for advancement which Rgo. can, he is non-existent, —— Mr. and Mrs, Clevelaud. 8t.
