P, Casapy, Council Bluffs, la., Sept. 5, 1830, No simpie advertisement ever caused a greater society sensation than the above, wh appeared in an evening paver, “What is the matter with Judge Casady and his wife!” Social circles were sot in o whirl at once. The judge and Mrs. Casady have livod here for yoars and bsen among the prominents, Judge Casady mo here in 1853, and has been very active in business and political civeles, winning for himself more thao a local reputation and accumu- lating an estate which is estimated to be of over §100,000 in value. About five yeurs ago he, belug o widower, ded the present Mrs. Casady, the relict of Dr. Osborne, who, in his lifetime, was a prominent physician of this place. The wedding called forth congratulations and well wishes almost as hearty as though the contracting parties were in the fush of youth's first love. Sinco then Judge and Mrs. Casady were looked upon as enjoyin more than the average amount of marrie happiness and social enjoyment. Mrs. Cas- ady had a goodly estate in her own nam and with the judge’s liberal bunk unccouut there seemed no financial obstacle to the full enjoyment of life. The public announcement over his signature came, therefore, us u flash from a cleur sky. Reportorial inquisitiveness quickly peeked into the cioset. huxurh\nl as was the home, there was n skeleton there. Of late there has been nu trouble between the sup- posedly happy couple. Judge Casady, theugh only sixty-one years of age, has of late years broken & good deal, and his failing health has created many annoying demands upon the tume and strength of the wife. On his part he tnought her heartless and inat- tentive. On her part she looked upon him us irrascible and overbeariug. There were some_stormy und exciting scenes, which would have surprised greatly the many friends in the social circles i which Judge and Mrs. Casady took such high rank. The first of the month brought a surprise to the judge. Bills came fluttering in upon him like a snow storm, Here was one for $677 from Eiseman & Co. for dry goods bought by Mrs. Casady during August. An- other from Beno & Co. for §i81 was for some twenty dresses bought by Mrs. Casady. Here was a bill of Jacquemin & Co. for $084 for jewelry. The old gentleman’s breath was almost taken away. He wus not accus- stomed to such expenditures, 1t began to dawn through his brain that Mrs. Casady, who had been charging him with being stingy, wus secking sweet revenge, Hence the notice to the public to give Mrs, Casady no more credit on his a The bills and_the advertisement led to more scenes. Yesterday morning Mrs, Os- borne took occasion (o tell the judge what she thought of him, and after stating clearly the reasons why she could no longer live with him, she swept through the door with a stinging farewell. She wok herself to her own house, where, in company with her daughter, she will probably remain. Soon after the stormy separation the papers were filel and served as the preliminary proceedings of a divorce started by her. The grounds on which she bases her claim for matrfimonial freedom is that she canuot longer endure the cruel and inhuman treat- meut of Judge Cusady. She of course wants alimony as well as freedom. She has se- cure John N. Baldwin as her attorney. On the other haud Judge Casady’s friends laugh at the idea of Mrs. Casady being cruelly treated by her husband, and of her being afraid ot his physical abuse, She it a hale, hearty woman of about forty-five, weighiug twice as much as the judge, who is emaciated, tottering and feeble. It appears to them that Mrs. Casudy, with the inten- tion of forsaking him, planued to se- cure as many pleasant perquisites as possible. During the month of August she purchased such an unusual quantity of dresses and finery that this theory 18 plausible. She had all of these articles charged, amounting to about $3,000.

Judge Casady were not delivered the suppos s she had them taken elsewhere, He refuses to pay the bills, and there is a likelinood of these being the occasion of other suits. As both Judge Casady and_Mrs. Casady are floan- cially able to pay the bills, the merchants will doubtless collect their money from one or theothier of the misfit couple.

The board of supervisors concludea their labors yesterday afternoon for the present, and adjourned till the 17th inst., when it is hoped that Supervisor Waite will have suf- ficiently recovered from his iliness to be present. The board transacted the following business before adjournment: W. S. Wilkins was elected janitor of the court house for the eusuing year, at a salary of 185 per month, all of the members pres- ent voting for him, A wmember of the soldiers’ relief commis- sion was then elected, vice Sylvester Dye, Mr. Dye received ove vote, and George N Putnam toree, und the latter was declare elected, ‘fhe contract for burying paupers was awarded to Hersman & Stevens, they being the lowest bidders, At the adjourned meeting the matter of erecting a Jail at Avoca, and that of allowing the small pox bills, will be considered.

At the last meeting of the board, Mr. Hlaxsim, chalrman of the flaance committee, an- nouuced that at the next meeting he would report the uanies of tho propor parties to All these oftices, but the president prowptly sat down on him, and stated that the whole ‘Tube paints 7¢ at . tion." As nearly as can be ascortained the whole situation is about Hke this: Messrs, Blaxsim and Lawson are opposed to the present sec- retary, Dr. Brown, and are stronely in favor of Emmett Tinley, esq., theic defeated can- didate of a year ago, 'Iheir only show to elect him is to gain Mr. Schoentgen's vote, 10 get which they must swallow Mr Schoentgen's choice for treasurer. This will cause a deadlock, and it is quite probable that it will require some hard work and very convincing logic to got the nocessary fourth note from the other side of tne house. It is underatood that Mr. Kel- 1or is Mr. Schoentgen’s choice for treasurer, in which case it will be Keller and Tinley against the shoice of the other three mem- Dbors, possibly the present incumbents, Pore goy and Brown. In any eveat, thero will be fun when the time comes. The long, hurd contest of a year ago is a matter of record. After fraitlessly ballot- fog for several sessions, & secretury was finaily elected one evening on the ninety soventh ballot, At present the members a very reicont, but it is predicted that all will be free onough to express their views before a choice is flnally effected. - The Oity Now Owns Fairmount Park. Late last evening a deed was filed at the county recorder’s oMice that will undoubt- edly prove of great interest to the oitizens of Council Bluffs. It was nothing more nor less than w quit claim deed from Mary Walker of this city of all her interest in Fairmount park. It will be remem- berad that several months ago an en- terprising law firm of this city insti- tuted legal proceedings to wrest from tho city this beautiful park, all in behalf of a certain “widow in Colorado,” in whom, it was alleged, a certain title to the property was vested. It now transpires that this law firm secured quit claim deeds from various parties who might be supposed to have u valid claim on the property, but it is aileged that recent developments will expose some very crooked worl 1n this particular, About three weeks ago Park Commis- sioner Graham, Alderman P. Lacy and Fin- ley Burke slipped away on a quiet little trip, to secure some ‘“necded rest and recrea- They sought it in the mountains of Colorado, aithough that was not announ ced as their objective point, and labored long and earnestly with the hitherto vague and unrealistic *‘widow 1n Colorado,” The result is that the city of Council Bluffs now virtually becomes this same “widow of Colorado,” which facts will not prove pleas- ing to the above mentioned legal firm, Dur- ing their western visit, the three gentlemen proviously referred to nscertained something of the manuer in whioh this avaricious law firm had worked to secure their quit cluims, To the “widow” they represented that they desired to perfect the titlo to Williams’ addition, otherwisa Fairmount park, in be- half of the city, to preserve it from any claims that might be mude at some future time to deprive the city of Council Biuffs of its greatly treasured beauty spot. She was induced to give a warrant deed of the parlk, for whici they agreed to give her $1,000, assuming upon themselves the responsibility of settling with the city, they to huve all that they could get over the stipulated sum. But they failed to pay the sum agreed upon, and now the metamor- phosed “‘widow,’” otherwise the city of Coun- cil Biuffs, who has been tho defendant, will assume the part of plaintiff in a suit for ob- taining property under false pretenses. To other parties who held interests of which they desired a quit claim the law firm represented they wanted the quit claim 1n the interedt of the aforesaid ‘‘widow,” in all of which proceedings the firm figured in anything but an enviable light.

Two electric motor trains collided oa the bridge Thursday evening, but fortunately without doing any serious damage, The trains usually pass at the switch in the center of the bridge, but some of the con- ductors, when a little ahead of time, run by and meet the opposite train at the end of the bridge. This wus the case in this instance. The eastbound train passed onto the single track before the other left it. Tho brakes were set tightly, but this did not prevent a collision, which shook the cars severely, throwing several passengers from their scats, o few of them falling to the ground. Mrs, John T, Olwer, of this cty, sustained a badly sprained arm and several smaller oruises, and a_number of children were badly shaken. None of the bruises were severe, and the dumage to the cars was slight. —————— Three hundred cases of goods were opened in the Eiseman building yesterday. Come to-day and sce the grand free exposition. e Killed on the Rail Brief mention was made in these columns yesterday of the killing of an unknown man, supposed to be a tramp, in the Rock Island yards, by the incoming fast freight over that road, about 1:30 o'clock yesterday morning. The remains were removed to the under- taking establishment of Field & Estep, where the inquest was held yesterday forenoon. The evidence introduced was very meager and threw very littie light on the affair, which still remains shrouded in mystory to a certain oxtent. It is very probable thatit will never be known whether the dead man feil under the wheels accidentally or was pushed from the train by some person unknown, The head brakeman is the only man who has thus far been able to tell anything about the accident., His evidence, as given ad the inquest, was to the effect that he knew nothing of the pres- ence of tramps until the train stopped at the “Q" crossing, a few hundred feet east of the Rock Island local depot. The engine whistled, and the train had partly started again, when he turned and looked toward the rear of the train. He was standing on the front car, ana his lantern was setting near his fect. He saw two men walking toward him over the tons of the cars. He turned toward the en- gine for o moment, and when he looked back again one of the men had disappeared. His attention had not been diverted from them more than a second, and as he looked back the second ume he saw the car on which the man haa stood jump as if passing over some- thing on the track. He went back and told the remaining stranger thut his comrade had been run over and to get down and look after him. The strauger immediately clambered down the side of the car and disappeared, The train puiled up into the yards, a dis- tance of about t'wo train lengths, and aswitch engine was sent back to look after the unfortunate victim. He was found lying dead and horribly mangled a few yards east of the His former companion wus nowhere Lo be seen, and has remained & missing and un- knowa quantity up to the preseut time, The brakewan could give no information s to whether the dead man fell from the car ac- cidentally or whether his unknown com- panion gave him the fatal push. When the two were seen together the deceased wus walking in front of the other, so that the latter must certainly have seen bim fall, even if he did not purticipate in any foul play. Noue of the trainmen knew that the tramps were on the train, and it is not known waoere they rode, as whe train was made up of through time freight and every car was sealed. The only clue as to where they came from was furnished by the en- gineer, who testitied that while the train was at Weston, the first station east of this city, he saw two men cross the track just in front of the engine, under the full glare of the headlight. He paid no particular attention to it, as it was @ atter of common occurence, He de- scribed the men #s being somewhat on the tramp order—one tall and smooth faced, wearing & dark suit of clothes and brown derby hat, and the other shorter, uud wear- ing a slouch hat. The former corresponds exactly with the dead mav, and the brake- man says the other would tally with the en- gineer's description of the second party.

For the information of that paper it may be stated that City Engineer Stimson has appointed an ispector, Mr. C. &, Read, who has been attending to his duties since the work of relaying paving was commenced. Mr. Reed has been a sewer and paving in- spector for the past four years and thoroughly nnderstands nis business, “The paper above referred to severely cen- sures the company for the work being done ut the head of Pearl street.

The Good Fortune of a Boston Man in Boltvian Mines. Hosrox, Ma ept. 0.—1Speclal Tele gram to Tue Bee. | ~G. H. Fall, a Boston lawyer, has just returned from a trp to Bolivia. He brings some valuable informa. tion concerning the work that has been done there by W. H. Christy, a Boston man About four years ago Christy came into pos. session of the Londres mine, which has since proved ons of the richest in the world. The Londres was first worked by the Spaniards 800 yoars ago. Some thirty years ago it cume into the possession of Bnglish capi- talists, who made large sums of money from it. The officers of the English com pany, it 18 said, began to steal the ore, and after a time the stockholders refused to put up money with which to continue the work. Finally the English cupitalists abandoned it altogether. The mine became flooded so badly that no one cared to undergo the risk of a heavy outlay of money to pumpit out, and for twenty years it lay idle. Christy cleaned out the mine and the Bolivian government treed it of water by means of an underground tun- nel and began digging.
