Another fine crowd assembled at the Coli- soum last ovening, and the horsc-bicycle chase wss resumed amidst much enthusinsm. CoLusbus, game: Columbus Brooklyn 000 110-7 01010 0-4¢ Owing to Miss Lizzie Williams' partial disa- bility, brought on by a fall from an unruly broncho on the firstevening, the bicycliennes consented last night to Beardley putting in a third rider, which he did in the shape of a wild and wooly cowboy, and no less a per- son than Broneho Charlie. His daring horsemanship was not loug in metamorphos- ing the race, for in the first two hours’ rid- ing, with the aswmstance of his fair compan- ions, Miss Wiliiams and Miss Raber, he cut down the lead of tho bykers from six miles to six laps. If Broncho Charlio is allowod to continue, there is little doubt but that the horses will Win. Beauty Baldwin, who looks as winsome and pretty as ever, was the first of the bicyc- lieunes to appear last night, and the way sho mado hor glistening wheol flash about the ellipse was & caution to sevoral of the champions of the world who occupied prominent seats on the reserved sides. The little lady is yet o great favocito with all patrons of the Coliseum. Miss Kittle Brown, however, shows moro im- provement in riding than any of the fair qyelists, and was rapturously applauded last night as she lead the fiery orouchos in their chase. She was also the recipient of bandsome floral offerings. Louse Armaindo and Miss Lily Willams are riding well, aud were both® given an ovation on their appearance. The equestrianism of Miss Lizzic Williims and Jennie Kober is much admired,while Broncho Charhie's dust- g style evoked salvo after salvo of enthusi- astic cheers. Tho scorc: Bicyeliennes.

I posted a deposit of $25, to make a match for six days, two hours per day, and to allow any and all lady bicyclists to enter. That forfeit bas remained uncov- ered up to this time. But as all the champion lady wheelists are now in Omaha, I am still ready to match one of my ladies for the same kind of a race, and to make the sweepstakes &30 or $100 each, no- body barred and no favors asked.

Senator Morgan says he is still waiting for the alleged backer of Miss Williams to cover bis forfeit of $50 in behalf of the cham- vion, Miss Jessie Oakes, avd it does seem surange that after all the talk from the for- mer's backers that they should fight shy of Morgan's forfeit, which evidenily means business, and the flery challenge of the lat- ter must'still be ringing i the cars of the defied ones.

Dusnar, Ta, May 28.—[Special to Tue Bre.]—After a careful investigation of the fire that occurred in this city last Thursday evening, the fact is developed that the loss is about $7,000, the livery stablo of Jenkins & Daltsman being entirely consumed, as well as the dwelling house adjacent thereto, oc- cupied by John Fadden. In the former about seventeen head of horses were burned to death. In addition to this, a large amount of hay, corn, several buggies and about seven sets of harness were destroyed. There was no insurance, and the fire is supposed to have been of ncendiary origin. Arrangements have been made in Dunlap for the observance of Memorial day. Union services were held last Sunday at the Meth- odist church, Revs. Barton and Cumming of- fleiatwg. Shield’s post No. 80, G. A. R., at- tended in a body.

Training School for the Blind. MasoN Crry, In., May 24.—[Speoial Tel- egram to Tur Ber.]—The progressive cities of JTowa are now much interested in the loca- tion of a training school for the blind.

M. fox and Miss Lorene Mattice, was appointed by Governor Larrabea to inquire into the work- ings of industrial homes for adult blind; also to report upon the advisabibility of estab- lishing such an institution in Iowa. The committee reports favorably, and prominent cities are now being notified to send in their propositions as to what inducement they can offer for the location of the asylum. From ten to forty acres of land will be required, situated near some city with good railway facilities and good water supply. The loca- tion of the building will doubtless create an interesting contest. The Supreme Court.

Adiwich’s Triak HasTiNGs, Nob,, May 23.—[Special Tele- gram to Tin Bee.]—All day was consumed by the testimony of witnesses for the prose- cution in the Mrs. Aldrich murder trial. Much of it was of no special interest, and nothing of a sensational charactor was clicited. The story of the eloven-year-old ughter of the aefendant, detailing quar- rels between her father and mother and his sudden sickness and death, was qaite pa- thetic. She testified that Dr. Nultens camo to the house often and gave presents to her mother, who was often sick and sent for him. Neimoyer, the hired man, was alone at the bedside of the dying man in his suferings, and knew therd was poison in the house, procured to kill wolves and gophers. The witness was much confnsed on his cross oxamination, and gave many incoherent an- swers, Dr. Lynn's evidence confirmed-the finding of strychnine in the stomach of the deceased. The character of to-day’s tostumony was not regardea as warranting a conclusion of ilt. The court house was packed with nterested spectators, and opinions as to vho probable verdict are divided. A Daylight Robbery, FrevoNT, Nob., May 28— [Spocial to Tin Bre.|—A bold robbery took place in Fre. mont this forenoon, perhaps tho boldest ever perpetrated i the city. About 10 o'clock two well-dressed young men, each wearing a silk tile, knocked at the residenco of Dr. N. H. Brown, and inquired of the hired girl if Mrs. Brown was at home. They were in- formed that she was not, when they asked for the doctor, and were told he was also absent. The two men then told her that they wera old friends of tho family, and would go in_the -parlor and take a seat, which they did, and the girl went about _her work in the kitchen. Presently one of thom went to the kitchon, and forcing the girl into the dinng room, covered her with a ro- volver. The other man then went -through the house rapidly and took such money as ho could find, but only got $5.50, overlooking some valdablo jowelry and two watohes near at hand. They then made a hasty exit and fled. The police were immediately no- tatied of the robbery, but despite tho' fact that it took place in broad daylight, bave not yet succeeded in discoveriug the highwuy- men, e Court in Kremont. FrEMONT, Neb) May 23.—[Special to Tnr Bee.]—The district_court for Dodge county opened up yesterday afternoon with Judge Post on the bench.

Bavtivone, May 28.—|Special Telegram toTne Bem]—On the strect, in the clubs, everywhere, the one tople of conversation has been the cause of Rev. Henry Greenflold Schorr's Sunday morning suicide, as pub- lished in an out-of-town paver, to which he bad sent both his correspondence and that of the woman he loved, as well as her name. Schorr evidently was a peculiar man® taking his meuls at an expensive hotel and having comfortabie rooms at St. Paul's parish house. He was o favorite with the fashiona bte congregation of St Paul's, where he was assistant rector. Ho constantly refused to talk about his parents, who lived in a humble way inan obscure part of the town. Haying borrowed their savings he was ashamed’ of them. He gave many false reasons for his periodical gloom. First, friend had com- mitted suicide bocause ho ad urged the pay- ment of @ debt. Then a mythical sister was seriously il in Brooklyn, cte. Schorr was buried ‘o-day. A reportor called this evening at the luxurious home of Mrs, Margaret M. Smith at No. 1219 North Charles streot, the woman whom Schorr says ruined his life. Her appearance be- trayed the fact that she has suftered & groat deal recently. She is tall and slender and has very dark, expressive cycs and black hair. She looked to be about forty years of He age, - “The letters as published wore true,” she said, but Mr. Schorr’s act in sending the love letters was the act of a coward and was done because I would never marry him. At the time I wrote them I really did care for him, but I told him 1 couldu’t marry bim. I was a woman much older than Mr. Schorr, in fact, he was a boy to me. I knew nothing of his family and he would never tell me anything about them. His continued attentions won my regard and I did learn to love him, but always told him I could never mal him. I think he was crazy and his act i sending my letters and picture to the newspapers was the act ot a coward. The last paragraph in the paper is absolutely false and was written iu a spi of revenge.” She reforred to the partof his last the newspaper in which he charged bemng o deceitful woman and blaying fast and loose with other r beside himself, Flalt Bl A Mystery of Death, CieyENNE, Wyo., May 25.—([Special Telo- gram to Tue Bek.|—Mrs, Charles Thomus was found dead in bed this morning, with an” empty laudanum bottle on the bureau near her bed.
