R Miller was arraigned yesterday Jnorning for malicions mischief, having fsmushed the windows of Rasmusson’s paint and paper establishment on Main strect, and Tiad his case continued until this morning, Arrangements have boen made by which a strect cur will leave the Ogden house every evening at 9:10, and Pear! street at 9:15 to connect with the trains at the depots 1w the ~ southern part of the city. A crook sent a boy to ¢ for $55 on the Citizens' ba sterday after- ioon. ‘The check bore the signature of K. Burhiorn. An officer accompanied the boy to find the man who gave it to him, but was not successful, Secretary Templeton received word yes! ~ day that fire companies from Stewart, Sher dan and Sloan would be here to attend the tournament. Similar communications aro ~ being received every day, and the outlook is good for the largest gathering that cver “assembled in the state. The little daughter of Chief Walters, of the fire department, was seriously poisoue . Friduy night, by some article she ate for | supper. Physiciuns were called and medical aid rendered, and yesterday the little ono was resting as casily as could be expected. . F. L. Templeton’s cigar store w burg Tarized Friday night. The flooring of the shotv window was pried up and access to the contents of the window thus obtained. The “thiof carried away about $100 worth of pipes, cigarettes and smoking tobacco. No clue bas been obtained. ‘There will be a_special meeting of Har- mony Chapter, No. 25, Order of Eastern Star, on Saturday evening, June 1, to _meet Mrs. Ercanbrack, grand matron. There ‘will be initiation and other important busi- ness, All officers and members requested to _be present. By order of W. M. ~ ./ he case of Barrett vs Sewell was on trial in the district court yesterday. This is an- other of the so-called squatter cases, involy- ing the title to lois in the westera part of the city. The jury in the damage case of Garner w8 City of Council Bluffs returned a verdict awarding the plaintiff $1, thus throwine the costs on the city. The verdict gives general “satisfaction. Miss Bella Robinson must feel quite grati- fled over the apvreciation shown by her Council Bluffs friends. The last rendition of her new opera caused the opera house to be filled with an enthusiustic andience, and numerous elaborato floral tributes were given “her, A gold medal was also presented to her as anotiier token of the appreciation of her musical friends. ‘The news of the accident which occurred - at Lincoln while Pete Kuykenaall was driv- “ing'the hose cart to a fire, was a sad surprise #/t5 his friends here. It appears that the run- ing grer and killing of the child was not so ‘miich due to any act of tho driver, as to the log which grabved the child’s clothing. ~Kuykendall was for many years comnected ~'with the Council Bluffs fire department, and “was known as cne of the most careful as well as skilled drivers. He left here only a few “months ago. The new thirty-horse power summer mo- ““tors of the motor company are beauties, and “'mre giving the best of satisfaction. 'They puli three loaded coaches on the steepest grade on the line with ease, and there is no rceptible jar or strain on the machimery. t stated that all new motors hereafter or- dered by the company will be of this power, 88 it gives better results than do the twenty- _horse power motors. The appzarance of full train of the summer cars is decidedly | pleasing, and the electric company may weil ay claim to huving the most handsomely _equipped Jine 1n the country. e The ladies of the W. C. A. will open their exchange 1 a few days ir the Merriam biock, and will be prepared to furnish cooked . meats, cakes and pastry of all kinds during * _ the summer at very reasonable rates, They “.will aiso conduct an ice creaw parlor in con- “nection with the exchange, und will attend ‘10 the wants of the public in first class style, _Mr. Merriam has generously donated the use of one of the large store rooms on the first " floor for this purpose, and the ladies expect 410 net considerable money for the association “during the season. A | Iuisstated that the Omaha fire depart- ment will attend the tournament in force, and one of the interesting features will be e race between the chiefs’ horses, each boss fire fighter to arive his own nag. It ‘will be a lively brush, for botn ‘‘Jack” and . “Charley” are “‘dead game,” and it will be # anything but a walkaway for the winner. ' Arrangements have also been made by .. which the Veteran Firemen’s association of ~ Omaha will entertan all firemen who visit | that city during the tournament. No pains will be limrud to make the stay of the visi- tors as pleasant as possible. An immense crowd turned out to both per- formauces of Wallace's circus yesterday. The morning parade had the usual attraction for the multitude, and helped to fill the large . tents during the afternoon and evening. The show was of unusual merit, and the numer- ous new features and fine specialties were «diberally applauded. The only chestnutty feutures of the show were such as are indis- © “pensible, including the children who went to . 860 the avimals in charge of their uncle, the ~ deacon, the tender swain and his lady fair . from the country and‘the red lemonade man, i These wero there in all their glory, but aside from them there was nothing painfully fa- miliar in the programme, sh a forged check 9 sbought and sold, money loaned; fire insurance.

A Good Tent-Show — The Eiseman Hose Team Reorganized —Ace cident toa Runner— Personals. P ding a Policeman OfMcer David Bovle, the policeman who was so bratally slugeed and beaten Thurs. ay night by Henry Johnson, alias Stewart, was resting quite casily yesterday, although it will be some time before he will be able to resume his duties as a member of the force. A careful examination of his injuries by the physicians revealod a number of ugly gashes and broises. A blow across the nose had terribly disfigured that organ, the bone being crushed in sevoral places, and “three deep gashes were found in the scalp, 1g bare the skull for thespace of several inohes, The features of the injured man were bruised and discolored, and the traces of u terrible beating wore plainly visible. ‘I'he circumstances that led to the fight are not yet fully known, the prisoner and the vietim telling differént stories. They agres to o certain poiut, that is, that Doyle en- tered Johnson's saloon on ‘‘Rotten Row,’ at a few minutes before midnight, and told him that it was time for him to close. Doy states that ho then crossed the street to an- other saloon on a similar mission, and when he emerged from the latter Johnson was outside and knocked himn down. He rose to his feet and pulled his gun, at the same time striking at Johnson with his club, ‘The latter caught hold of the club and pulled it away from him and struck him across the head. The blow dazed him, and he fired, but owing to his condition was unable to take aim, and the bullet missed the mark. John- son then knocked him down again, and beat him about the head with the club, after tak ing tho gun away from him. He isof the opinion that Johnson's bartender was with him, and avrested him, but is unable to state positivel, Johnson says that when Doyle told him to ciose he replied he would do so as soon as 1t was time, and then started out. He claims that Doyle followed him and attempted to club him, when he objected, with the result stated, As 800n as the row was over, Johnson hur- ried to the police station and gave himself up, and Jailer Barhyte was just openiog the door of the cell room to lock him up, when the officer appeared, in charge of Charles Allen, who was leading him to the station. As soon as Johnson saw the oficer he sprang at him and struck him a heavy Dblow in the face. The jailor seized him before he could repeat the blow, and threw him into a cell. Physi- cians were summoned and the wounds of the injured man were dressed, after which he was conveyed to his boarding place in a hack. The gun taken from the officer wus found on Johnson’s person when he appeared at the station. 'I'ne club was picked up at the scenc of the assault, broken in two pieces by the heavy blows on the head of the prostrate policeman. The statement that appeared 1n a certain paper to the efect that the attending phy cian volunteered the information that Doyle was drunk, is indignantly denied by the physician, Who states that he made no such assertion, us it is altogether outside his busi- ness. The prisoner was taken to the county jail yes day afternoon. Charges of resisting an officer and assault with intent to kill were preferred against him, but his examination has not yet taken place. He is a half-brother of the notorious colored fiend, Cuft Johnson, now serving a life sentence at_Fort Madison for a most brutal and revolting murder in this city several years ago, when he crushed aman’s skull and concealed his body in an outhouse, the sole purpose of nis horrible crime being robbery. The evidence on which he was convicted was purely circumstantial, but the jury quickly reached a verdict, and the prisoner’s life liberty was taken from him. His conviction was secured by Judge A. B. Thoruell, of this district, who was at that time prosecuting attorney. Heury Johnson, the prisoner now in jail for the assault on Ofiicer Doyle, is a very dark negro, and he 18 a man of powerful physique. 'He has figured several times in {;ollcc court, and is known to tne police as a ad man. For several months he has con- ducted ono of the most disreputable joints in the city, and several serious rows have nated there. Certain memuvers of the police force state that they have anticipated trouble there, and have been prepared to move quickly and decisively when the time came. Ofticer Doyle was evidently not among this number, and the darkey had him horribly beaten before he fully realized what was going on. Johnson is bitterly denounced by thie police and all who know anything about him or his place, and a vigorous at- tempt will be made to send him wacross the state for a long term. Johnson's defense is understood to be that Doyle was abusive and acted as 1f drunk, and brought on the quarrel. It was not time 10 close, and even if it had been the officer could have made the arrest without drawing a revolver, It is also claimed that after John- son had surrendered himself, Doyle coming into the station kicked Johnson, who there- upon knocked Doyle down again. - Money loaned on furniture, pianos, diamonds, horses, buggies or anything of value at low ratesof interest.

Owing to a little ciashing among certain members of the Eiseman hose team, a change has taken place in the management. Sev- eral members objected to the munagement of Captain Nicholson, and it was decided to hold a secret meeting to effecta resrganiza- tion, and leave lim out in the cold, He heard of the proposed movement and promptly sent in his resignation, thus saving the team the trouble of holding a meeting for the purpose. Nicholson had been doing the coupling, and his piace will be filled by Mules Schofield, who formerly carried the pipe, It is claimed that the team is now mu stronger than before, as the trouble has been in delay in making couplings, and notin making a fast run, This statement is open to question, however, as in nearly every in- stance where the team has made & competi- tive run, the coupling has been in poor con- dition, or the rcel has not worked satisfac- torily. The new man who was taken in to fill the vacancy was Warren Perry, and the first run of the reorganized team was made Fri- day evening on East Plorce street. Iuwas nearly dark at the time, and the track was rather uneven. Perry was not provided with spiked shoes, and slipped by stepping into a small depression. He fell, and the cart passed over him, breaking his left leg, just ubove the ankle. He was removed to the ofice of Dr, Hanchett, when the fracture was reduced, after which he was taken to the residence of Dr. H, 8. Wi on Wash- ington avenue, where he was boarding. The accident will necessitute the substitution of another new mau in the Eiseman team, and it is hoped that the change will not result so disustrously.

Annoying Business Men, YIf the city vouncil wants to drive our general ofMices out of the city they can suc ceed very eusily,” remarked General Ma: ager Gaull, of the Omaba & St. Louis ral way, to Tue Ber yesterday afternoon. *‘In moving our oftices to the Merriam block @ few duys ago we had to employ A.

Their assessment was raised from £10,000 to 230,000, but was finally cut down to £14.800. Had the second amount been ad- hered to, they would have been compelied to reincorporate in Nebraska, and wain office to Omaha., Now, th remain, but have not yet their present quarters Aside from these complaints, several vig- orous ki have been made regarding tne treatment by the council of business firms in this particular, and the offect that it will have on the city is universally condomned. Itis openly assorted that the council, by persisting in this course, can drive away more enterprises than the board of trade can sccure, and a radical change is demanded.

Pl ot it n the Wake of the Show. “It's the biggest and toughest gang I ever saw,” remarked a policeman, yesterday, in response to Tie Bre's inquiry as- to the crowd of crooks following up the circus. “They are, by all odds, the ugliest lot of mugs [ have had to wateh ‘since I went on the force. Thoy don't belong to the show, but they follow it for all it is worth. I stood near the ticket wagon and watched them pretty closely, and it_was surprising to see how vold they were. They would boldly look over o man's shoulder to see how much money he had when he haulea out his pocketbook to pay for his ticket, aud then they would follow him inside and’ put some of their pals “onto” him. We hauled in about half a dozenybut they all claimed to be from Omaha. Théy will spaad the night in the hole just the same, and there will be that many less to rob the town to-night. Weo will do the bost wo_can, but I suppose there will be some work done. There are so many of them, and folks are so carcless, that we can not_hope for anything else. We had word from Shenandonh that they worked the shell game and three card monte, but they didn’t dare to try iton here. They confined their oporations” to picking pockets and sneak thieving. We met a fow folks who were ‘touched,’ but I think we were very fortu- nate in holding them down as wellas we did. I always dread circus day, for it always leaves us extra work for scveral days.” If you are building, investigate Bo- dine Roofing at 115 Pearl street.

BOOK nLonriy PACTS AROUT THE SaLvAtton. ARNY BY RA MARKS—Rand ity & Co., Pub. ishers, Chicago. § This is a record of the wiiter's nctual experience as a soldior of Mie Salvation army. She enlisted for tHe purpose of publishing her adventuves therein and hor serisations oceasioned thereby. In- telligent, well educated Gegple gen- erlly harbor a feeling ‘of « contemnt for the Salvation army: this!is chiefly due toan innate revereres for the Al- mighty—a sentiment that receives a sevore shock from the Shlyationists’ irreverence. Jesus Christ was never guilty of vulgarity but was ever the essence of true refinement, both in feeling and action. In taking up this book one hopes, by the aid author’s guidance through the rude and dark environs of the Salvationist creed, todiscover a similar spirit, but in vain, One's feclings are often out- raged by unrestrained enthusinsm and ignorance sporting themselves in wild ebullitions of vulgarity and infantilo ‘ display. Little evidence is given of any real beneficial cffects derived by the public from the meetings of the army. Some of the female officers are remarkable for their almost sub- lime self-abnegation; while others are horribly repulsive by reason of their hypocrisy and coarseness. The major- y of the males 1llustrate an uncouth, distasteful collection of humanity, though some are noble in their zeal. Itseems improbable that the Almighty ean appreciato the idiotic gush som times offered to him by these people in their outbursts of egotistical joy. They mistake an unhealthy sentimentalism for religion. The following lines exemplify their mode of praising the Savior: There are no flies on Jesus, He's everything to me. _An officor having arrived at her des- tination, minus her baggage after a journey in the train prays thus: O, Lord, please send me my trunk! ‘With such raw material as this, Nora Marks has written . most entertaining book. The sublims and the ridiculous are blended with much humor. The subject is treated with the airiness of a of the | | superficial observer rather than the solidity of a deep thinker. The result proves extremely interesting. Master oF His Fate and ‘“van_ Vedder's Wife,” by Amelia E. Barr. Dodd, Mead & Co., New York. The first named of these two novels gives an illustration of Yorkshire char- acter. Amos Braithwaite, the mill owner, is a well known representative of his particular class, and an interest- ing study. What little plot there is, evidently is not intended to be brilliant. The entertainment consists chiefly in a contemplation of the clever, well-bal- anced delineations of the different char- cters. The story is strongly haatlh in tone but deficient in cojor.and inci- dent. The Yorkshire dialect is intro- duced in the dialoguo, but, asusual in such cases, its adoption isj pequliar for its waywardness of insertion. The other novel, *‘Jan Vedder’s ‘Wife,” has a plot very si; r in de- sign, but the characters are taken from the descendants of the angient Norse- men. The scene is laid chiefty in the Shetlands. The heroine i§ an excep- tionally disagreeable, narrow-minded woman when fivst introdueed, and. the other leading actors are grafted with the same spirit. However.affer an im- mense crop of bitter fruit. everything is changed, and a bounteaus. harvest of joy is obtained by a general stirring up of the matevial, with a sudden change of climate. This is the more interesting novel of the two, owing to the greater infusion of vivacity, that is particularly accepta- ble in so much lugubrious sentimental- ism. Tue LAw oF MUNicipAL Boxps, by J.

James, A, M. M. D. Published by F. A. Davis, Philadelphia and London. This work is published to attract the attention of invalids seeking resorts combining pleasure with the necessary qualifications for the amelioration of their various diseases. The author dis- tinctly emphasizes the influence of cli- mate over the health of individuals, and the absolute necessity of the inva- lid selecting a resort with a climate beneficial to his particular complaint. The chapter on Therapeutics supplies the requisite advice on this subject. Possibly this book would have been more attractive had the advantages of the various uealth resorts mentioned been more thoroughly and graphically described. In & work covering so much ground, however, perhaps brevity is es- sential. Much useful information can be found herein by those for whom it was written, and, in fact, by all desirous of traveling. e —— £houlan't Talk About Her.
