The story that the lady in Council Bluffs knew anything about King’s efforts to get his wife to visit in that city cannot be veri- fled. She admits that Mrs. King and Mrs. Snyder wero there, but refuscs to believe that King wanted her to go out of the way while Mrs. King No.2was in town. Th Omahu lady said that when Mrs. King came over to hier houso it was last Friday morning and remained there until the news of tho shooting, She said that she had asked Mr. King to uccompany her in the moruing, but that e preferred waiting until the arternoon when he was going over on business The Council Bluffs lady said that she was an iutimate friend of Mrs. Snyder, who was a cousin to Alice Duffy King, and that she came over in a carriage a week ago yesterday. The carriage contained Mr. and Mrs. Snyder and Mr, and Mrs, King. The later couple did not alight from ther carriage, and Mr. and Mrs. Snyder re mained but u few minutes. sdnosday Not On V the three ladies were togethor again and be came better acquainted, and the two Omaha ladies made arrangements to visit in Couneil Blufts Friday. “Did you invite Mrs. night " SOh, yes, but she had told that she might remain,” The lady then v 0 charming = girl Mrs. g was, and sald that she was but cighteen instead of twenty-two years old. She thought there was no question about the King family taking sides with the first wife, who, sho was sure, would be looked after by them. She did hot believe that Alico thought herself wronged, as she had been too overcome with grief at the loss of her husband to look ut it in that light, HEAKDIT ON THE TRAIN, Mrs, King Learned of Her Husband's Deathon the Dummy.

When the train stopped a couple of gentlemen alighted from one of the Pullman couches and assisted a tall young lady, clad in deep mourning, to the platform. She almost fell into their outstretehed arms, and staggered as shie walked, although she was held up by the two gentlemen who supported her ou cither side, The young woman was Mrs, King, nee Dufty, the wife of the unfortunate young Omaha merchant. The sad little procession had some distance 1o walk from the train to the open gates of tue depot, and when they arrived there a couple of brawny baggagemen were taking a lurge oblong box from the front express car. Mrs. King saw it and gave a sob that was plainly audible. “Ob, Harry,” she mur mured, and the tears ran down ' her cheeks, wetting the black mantle of mourning that covered her fac I'riends of the family to the numoer of half a dozen, who were wait- ing for the al of the body, escorted Mrs. King to the carriage and she was driven to the King mansion.” Mrs. King’s gricf at the depot was intense, but it was doubly so when sho arrived at the elegant mansion of her father-in-law. By some chance she seemoed to be coufronted by the coftin of her husband at the most inoportune times, and she had just alighted from her carriuge when the hearse drove up. She gave a visible shudder, and entered the house. A large number of friends had gathered to administer solation to the members of the family in r bereavement, but Mrs. King refused to be comforted, and her cries of anguish were plainly heard at the front gate. She tottered over the remains of her murdered husband, which were placed 1 the front parlor, and cried out: “Oh, Harry, my poor Harry, this is terrible,” A CHECKERED CAREER. Something Concerning the Past Life of the Beechler Womaun. Cuicago, Nov. 19.—[Special Telegram to Tui: Bee. | —W. P. Johnson, the legal adviser of Mr. King, father of the murdered mun, as scen this morning by a reporter, to whom he said that Mrs. Beochler would be vigor- ously prosecuted. “She is in custody at Omaha,” said Mr. Johnson, “aud will be held there. Her defense will probably be that of an injured maid, but she will have a hard time making out such a case. Hor record is well known here, and her residence in houses of ili-fame, particularly that of Nellie Gra- ham, can be proved. Besides, this woman had settled all her claims on Harry King. A fow duys ago, in consideration of 81,500 in d to her by Mr. King, sr., she signed 1 release, under the advice of her at- torney, whom I understand is Luther Laflin Mills. ' This paper not only gives up all claims on Hurry Kiog, but in signing it Mrs. Beechler used ber own name and not that of King, to which she had proviously claimed a right,” “luvestigation and the discovery of fresh cevents in the history of Libbio Beechler Le- Garde, the murdercss of young Henry W.

She saved her mono, hiad no friend to spend it for her, and nevor went flymg around like most of the girls She came here from Detroit, and I think this s where she began leading a fast life, but she continued it for some time after wards. We always thought the girl wrong in her mind. She was despondent and queer at times, never would driuk, and scemed to hate the life. She didu't know King then, L am sure, and though she had many gentle wen friends there were no fayored ones," Mrs, Graham says that she kuew the Becchler woman quite well. “She first came to mo in January, 1585, and remained until September.

Rightin front of the southwestern end of Ceutral park an enormous of apartinent houses known as the flats. but y styled the Sal . Tolosa, Madrid, lova, anada and Valen- cin. These h were commeneed about ten years ago, but because of o ays were four years in build- The principle of the rtments was that the oc cupants were to buy them out- W subject to asmall tolt for ground it and junitorship. Many did so. but in consequonce of a series of fatal con- straction errors the company was forced to mortgage the block, and the unhappy owners of the artments found them- selves suddled with a heavy lien over and above the high price which they had alveady paid. This situation led to much litigation and at last to a consoli- dation of the mortg of the flats to a gentleman representing both interests. These rtment houses undoubtedly occupy one of the finest and most ble sites in New York but they never can he remunerative property. Mr, Jose F. de Navarro, who planned them, was quite unaware of t revolution that has taken place in the tast and feelings of opulent New Yorkers, and his best swites of apartments while more expen- sive than the majority of houses that arve to be rented, are farinferior to them in style. Tk wre also not in the best style. The best rooms are fivted vith shim grates and are heated with steam pipes in the style of the grand hotels of twenty years ago. In good private houses in ihis city there is in all the best rooms an open fireplace for burning wood, appliances for o coal grate by iron chains whenever the change is desired. What with one debt and another the Navarro flats have cost six millionand are worth navdly more than half. And they ave by 10 means an ornament to the “city, for the architecture is worse than cor posite, being in facta conglomerated mosaic of every known style. THE PROVESTANT EPISCOPAL DRAL. Speaking of architecture reminds me that the proposed Protestant Episcopal cathedral has advanced another stage. IMirst it was a grand proposal,a luminous thought by which it was believed true veligious impulses would communicate to & money worshipping world.

Richard M, Hunt, who built | the Lennox libeary and the pedestal of the Bartholdi statie, is one of them. George B.
