ABROTHER'S VOW OF VENGEANCE The Electric Motor-The New Inter- State Line—Sweet Charity Wanted ~Kick Aga a Janitor— The County Boards, nst Long Search for a Sister. Another sad case of over co womm und its ubuse by man has just come t0 light, and because the latest ncts in the drama, which may develop into a tre were performed in this city und count recital will be of intercst to the readers of Tur Bee, The story as told by the various persons interested is substantially Until about six weeks ago there v little village near Webster City an t tentious millinery establishment presided over by Miss Kate Cluzy. The money, by which her wis established, came from the estate of the father, who died r cently. She also had a small farm, and was, to all appearances, petting along well in her business, She was twenty-four ycars of age, ingularly modest and of retir- disposition, keeping compuny with 1 and secking few friends beyond the limits of her busiucss transactions. About the time mentioned the lady disap- peared from her place of b in day or two the stock was taken posscssion of by various creditors. At the time she left that | short visit o he business ¢ she made a mother, who Jives and still lives, some miles {rom there. Here she got her mother to indorse u note for £100, pre- sumably to help hier over a little financial strait, “She then disappeared, and the first mation that she wasnot at her place of business came some days later. Then the mother began inquiring, but no clue to the whereabouts of the daughter could be cured, i she knew not what, s wrote to her son Theodore, who is engaged in the stock and grain business in a town about forty miles east of Sioux City, Then the Lrother began a search the lost sister. No one had her her home, and fearing either disgrace or suicide or both he left his broken hearted mother, and with no clue to aid him he staried to find the lost one. Iricnds of the family living at various places in both this state and Ne ka were visited, but without resuit. Three or four wecks were thus spent in a fruitless scarch, when he caught a clue at Sioux City. She had been there; had acted strangely” while there, and had left without giving any intimation as to her destination. The brother then came to Council Blufs, and after searching two or three days without accomplishing anything, he engaged the services of Constable A. 1. Chatterbuck. That officer began working on the case last Tuesday. Various places about the city and near town tvere visited. Dec letters were sent, but they were not taken frow the oftice. Various “‘clues” were fol- lowed to the end but ended in nothing. Thurs- day afternoon the ofticer thought' he had found out the whereabouts of the missing one, and yesterday morning he and the brother of " the lady started out on the last pointer. They drove about five miles into the country, in the Garner settlement, and where leavied that a strange lady was at_the house of one Mrs, Dillon. The “oficer then v that lady vhen the description of Miss ! n, she said the lady was there, said_she rode out from the Blufls with a neighbor about the 20th of August, that she had made her home beneatn her roof since then, but had tried to earn her liv- ing by working out amone the farmers. She said the young lady would give no account of herself, her family or previous history, and at times acted so strangely as to cause grave fears as to her sani The young lady herself was then called iu and mtroduced to the ofticer. His business with her was explained, and she was asked if she would see her brother, She appeared somewhat indifferent but said she would see him, whereupon the brother came in. The uiceting was affec- tionate on his part, indifferent upon Lers, so unlike her usual, normal self that there was no question but that she was deranged. When asked if she would go home to her motlier she said she would, but a moment afterward became violent when askeda to get ready to leave. Entreaties were used and she finally put her hat _on and came away with the oflicer and her brother leaving her effects 10 be sent on later. Now come the sensational features of the story. Mrs. Dillon says that in a conversa- tion with her the young lady told hershehad kept company with a young Catholic priest, and that she had éxpected to marry him; that the clergyman had ‘‘gone back on her” and she would never trust another man as long as she lived. ‘Another man is also charged by the family with being largely responsible for her la- mentable condition. She explained the finan- cial break in her business by charging that certain drummers, representing Des Moines and St. Louis houses, had ‘“raised” her orders, and had sent her a lot of unsaia- ble goods; that having had little business ex perience this course of procedure was very easy. A certain cattle man, whose name ay hereafter figure prominently in this sume connection, is also charged with having gained her confidence, got her to put her money iuto his hands for investment and then beat her out of the pile. “The brother herein mentioned swears that he will hunt the man down who is responsi- ble for his sister's lamentable condition and visit upon him such punishment as he de- serves. Bothi he and his sister left last evening for the mother's home, after which, said the young man, “Twill not rest day or night until 1 have unearthed the villain® and make him pay dearly for what he has done.” L : Home grown celery at Fearon's. . 2 1f you have property for sale at a bar- gain list it with us and we will adver- tise it f of charge.

The work of completing and equipping the electric motor is steadily going on, and the time for the opening and practical operation of the road is rapidly drawing near, yet very few of our citizens have any idea how the cars are to be run, what they will look like, or, in fact, anything connected with it, as electric motor lines are by 1o means common in this part of the country, and the bridge company has been too busy to devote any time to anything but to the countless ma'ters wn connection with the building of the bridge and the motor line. The has had many obstacles to ome, but they have all been successfully combatted. About one mile of track is already laid and spiked on Avenue A from Fourteenth street west. The track will be paved on paved streets, of course, and also on curves, where bracing is needed to prevent spreading. The fron is what is known as the T and girder rail, and is laid on heavy ouk slecpers. The speed to be obtained on struight broad streets will be fifteen miles an hour, and greater speed could be obtained if necessar, ‘The cars are of the most upproved style, being among the finest productions of the famous Pullman Palace car works. They are tastefully furnishel, both inside and out, and are each furnished with five incandescent lights, three upon the iuside and one at each end, which render ample light and give the cars & brii- liant appearance night. The overhead electric system furnishes the method of oper ation, It was applied for the first time on a large scale to the road at Richmoud, Va., after which ihis road is putterned. The electric current comcs from the dyna- mos at the central power station through wire above the tracks to motors beneath the 'he current is taken from the over- head wire to the motor by means of a cou trivance known as an “‘under trolley,” which is fixed on a flexible arm projecting vp from the roof of each car. On cach side of the street is o line of poles, set 100 feel npurt, which are connected, two by two, by wires fidence of | | to the wire 1 right angles to twet of the tor," us the wi trolley runs.

The method of switehing, by rcason of its ingenuity. deserves spech At each switch an automutic switch plate is attached %0 that no attention has to be paid to either the wire or rails, as a little spring attuched o a swinging plate does the whole business, simply, safely and very ef- fectually. Two motors are placed beneath each car, one on each axle. They are of the well known Thomson-Houston pattern, being so comp: 1 build that they can be put on any street car without a change in the construc- tion of the car, except a strengthening of the floor. An observer would not notice any thing more than the usual running gear, un- less he looked sharply, in so small 4 compuss are the motors contained. Each represents ten horse power and each acts independently though cont 1by the same switch. In this way the passengers and the car give their full weight 1 tractive value, since each pair of wheels is enabled to use its full tractive power. These motors are seared by toothed wheels to the axle in such vay that for every revolution of the axle are made, ings on the motor swings from its uxle, and the swaying and jolting of the car_does not affect it. In ding a steep hill or going around a sharp curve the motor makes a_ by sound, but ordinarily it makes no noise )l of the car is had by coy ces at cach end of the car and the culated by asystem of electrical swite contained in a cylinderabout three feet high, sts aguinst the dasher.

The approaches will also be abundantly lighted. This system has always proven a success. The plaut being established here will give abundant power for forty cars, There will be but twenty-six put on present, which will give one car each way every six minutes. Closed cars will be put on’ when the road is opened for the winter, but open cars will be put on during the sum- mer. All that is necessary is to change the Loxes, us the construction'is so simple that the removal of a few bolts is all that isne sary. The time now set for the grand open- ing is Octobel and it is hoped that all will be in readiness by that time. - 5¢ per pound, at Fea- nd indic ines of two One of ¢ light for independ- Turkish prunc ron’s.

The sctiool board is being subjected tosome very severe criticisms justat present for its action in appointing a certain party as jani- tor of one of the city setiool buildings for the ensuing year. It is claimed that the new ap- pointeo lias but very little of which to boast in the way of a moral record, being an ex-tin- horn gambler and his female associates being not of the best. It Is said that he was for- merly a janitor of one of the city schools, and at that time gave good satisfaction. This is given by some of the members of the board as a reason for his appointment, while others of that body urge his ill health as a recom- mondation for such considgration at their hands. However, neitherof these excuses scems to satisfy the publie, aud the residents of the locality in the vicinity of the school building are inclined to rebel very strongly against the removal of a reliable, competent and_in_every way deserving man to make room for one whose carcer has bee 80 checkered and whose reputation is very far from being above reproach. It is urged that his influence upon the tender minds of the hundreds of children with whom he would be daily associated would be most per- ous, und parents very naturally object to trying such a dangerous perument. One member of the board says that if the new man does anything objectionab'e, off will come his head, but that is very poor consola- tion to parents and guardians who dread re- sults past all remedy from the school board.

Hudson Taylor and Mr. George B. Studd, of Loudon, England, as announced, will give especial pleasure, The former wentle- man is the founder of the China inland mis- sion, orgamized in 1 This mission is re- markable both for the principles upon which it is carried on and the success which has at- tended its missionaries. The wmission is un denominational in_ its wembership, has no assured income from any source and offers its candidates no salaries for their scrvices. Upon arrival in China, they ussume the dress, queue and mode of living of the inhabitants, and endeavor in this way to st the'bond of sympathy between themselves and the natives. The missionaries rely upon prayer for the supply of their wants and it is claimed their needs have been well supplied. During 1557 £10,- 000 more than was needed was contribute by various parties for the current expenses, and 103 new missionaries were added to their numbers. Mr. Studd is one of the band of young men from Cambridge university who' v converted during the visit of evangelist Moody, who immedintely gave their large fortunes to this society and entered the work themselyes, ‘Their voyage to China and their work since it is said’ seems more like a romance than actual fact, These two gentle are en route for China, and on - the way have visited several of the principal cities of the country, hold ing conference and giving bible readings. They desire to meet the people of Omaha to talk over this work, in the Kountze Memor- ial Evangelical Lutheran church, Saturday, at 10:30 a. m., 3:30 and 8 p. m, he Sunday meetings will be announced tomorrow. ED VICTIM. A Jehu and a Plugger Get Themselves In Trouble. A daring case of daylight highway robbery occurred Thursday afternoon. H.

Dur- ing the afternoon he was somewhut over- come with the heat aod sat down in front of the Derby hotel, where he sank inty> a stu- por. When in that condition cab No. 11 driver by Henry Christian drove up. Chris tian and his “plugger” dropped down from the box and lifted Mr. Practt into the cab, They then drove rapidly off. It transpires that Mr. Pracht was taken to Twenty-sixth 1 Douglasstreets where he was lifted by the ver and his “plugger” from the cab and ried into the tall weeds.
