He was seen yesterday at the county jail, and_solicited to give his side of the matter. “Well, I don’t know asI want to give my side,” said he, “‘but I don’t want to be ronsted the way you gave it to me this morning. I dou’tlike to see either side in the paper, and I would rather have noth- ing said about it. 1 don’t say that you made up any personal roast, for I supposs you heurd all these things somewhere.” “What was there in the articles that was not true 1" 'hera was a good deal. 1 never went to any Omaha wholesale house or mercantile agency and tried to iojure the credit of Parks & Son. Duw’s mun cawme to me and wanted to know how they stood, and I toid him to ask them, which he said ne had done, and they told him about the same us last year. Meyer & Raapke's man and I had some talk about their standing, but I did not have any list of creditors, and did not try to injure their credit. They are at the botiom of this prosecution and want to get out of the way, because I know how they do busi- ness. “I suppose my gambling was one thing that led to this, und that was somethine for them to go on, for I don’t deny thut I gam- bled a good deal. As for these checks that are declared forgeries, I admt that they passed through my hands, but they were paid 1 to me at the store for goods, and I don’t know who gave them to me. I couldn’t tell who the parties were or where they lived, or whether I would know tnem again if T was to see them. 1 cashed the checks, supposing them to be all right, and I can tell you that my friends bave not ail gone back ou me either,’ *‘How aoout that watch that you bought from Miss ,on First street, and pawned without, paying for it#? “That isall right. Ibought the watch on monthly payments, but I couldn’t pay for it and had to pawn it.? “How about the revolver belonging to Parks & Son, that you took from the store and pawned " ““Well,that 1s up here now in a pawn shon. ‘They knew I had it a long time ago. I didn’t try lo get away. I have not tried to dodge the police. I was at the bazasr two nights lust week, and I was on Broadway several times. No, T don't krow what my boud is fixed at, and I don’t care. I have not askod anybody to go my bail, and 1 do not propose to. Ihaven't any attorney yet, and don’t know what one I will have. Parks & Son are doing m.e dirt, und I may have something to say after a while, butl want to havea talk with Frank Parks. He was behind 1n a number of things and put me up to some of them.

Less than three years ago the loton the craggy cliff was purchased. By the united efforts of a handful of people an elegant church edifice has been erected, modern in every particular, well furnished aud fitted to carry on any service the grandeur of the Catholic faith may demand. Listle by little the possessions have been added to until @ haudsome property has been accutaulated, i, e, a church, rectory, parish school and sisters’ home, awounting in all to $30,000, It might be said that this has been a miraculous achievement, for many obsta- cles have preseuted themselyes, that for the time seemed unsurmountable. Willing hands, staunch hearts, true to the cause they espoused, and implicit faith in God have guided this little crew to & safe har- bor, Much.of this success is due to the zealous energy of the parishoners, but not all, able assistance hus been rendered by publi spirited citizens, irrespective of the faith, For this the parish is truly grateful, Throe fuirs have been held during the past two years, and bave been liberally patron- ized by the publiv in general. Saturday night terminated a very succes ful week, financially, for the church, thes netted being well up in the hundreds, ‘T'he ladies desire to thunk all who helped them by patronage, donations of articles o be voted and rafed, and by vpeoparation of prograumes o entertain the assemblages rom night to night during the bazaar. Council Blufts may well be proud of the tal- ent aud ability exhibited by her young peo- ple. It shows the care and attention given 1o artistic cultivation in this community be of & bigh order. ——— Dewmpsey & Butler candy factory, Main street. 105 Bixby has removed to Merriam block. .

Reportorial curiosity was counsiderably ex- citod yesierday ufterncon as a lady passed dowu Pearl stroet carryiug another in her arwd, The load was about as much as the age. I sorts of horrible accidents conjured up be- fore their active fmaginations, a couple of re- porters took up the trail and overtook the objects of their chase at the foot of the stair- way in the Beno-Shugart block, where the aforesaid burden was deposited on the side- walk, whero she stood on one foot until her animated conveyance could recover her breath, 1t then developed that the young Indy passenger wasa paralytic, who had been brought over from Omaha to attend the meeting of the Christian Scientists, who were trying to effect a c.re in her case. Her mother had simply carried her from the motor to the stairway, The scribes assisted the young lady up stairs to the rooms where the exponents of faith cure hold forth each Sunday afternoon, It was learned that the patient, Miss Evans, has been a helpless par- alytic from early childhood, but the faith cure folks took up the case about a month , and now she is able to stand alone, and can move a short distance, Her friends are very hopeful of her case, and inclined to think that permanent restoration to health will result.

The purchaser was one of the creditors, and all claims were bought up by him, No bids could bo secured for any of the aaimals indi- vidually and they were sold in a bunch. As tbe price obtained was just sufficient to satisfy the attachments, aud there being but one bid made it is supposed that the pur- chase was made on a by-bid in_the interest of Mayne, or the property would not haye been allowed to go 80 low.

One Lady’s Recipe for Cleaning Her Boiled Gloves. Cuecnmber Peel Found to be Very Ef- fective—The Proper Treatment of the Feet—Ragged Collars Saved —Seasonable Suggestions. 8o Tired. Velma O, Mellvilie in Daughters of America. “S0 tired, so tired ! sho bitterly sighed, As broom and brush she wearily plied; Tired to death of work and wérry, Tired of all this rush and flurry; Longing for even an hour to read, Longing for time earth’s beauty to heed, Longing to paint thav service for tea, Or better still yon thrush on the tree; Longing for music, rest and fame, Longing to teach the world my name, Longing to rise to a higher sphoro Than simply toiling and drudging here, 'S0 tired, 8o tired!” she bitterly sighed, Yet now no broom or brush she plied, Not tirea now of work and rush, Plenty of time for painting thrush; Time all written lore to read, Time all nature's wealth to heed, Time for music, rest and fame, Time to teach the world her names Timo to r1se to any sphere, No need for toil or drudgiug here; A row of mounds on the hillside bare Had removed forever the need of care, Yor Soiled Gloves. A lady ecalled for this mixture at a drug store: One quart of deodorized benzine, one drachm of sulphuric ether, one drachm of chloroform, two drachms of alcohol and just enough cologne to make it pleasant. When she had gone the clerk remarked to a spectator: Do you know what she wanted that preparation for? You would not be far out of the way if you guessed shat she was going to wash some soiled gloves. That isone of the best and cheapest preparations for cleansing that I know of. Youpoura little of the mixture into a clean bowl and wash the gloves in it as you would wash anything with soap and water. When the dirt is about re- moved rinse the gloves in some clean fluid, Usually one rinsing is enough, but if the gloves are very much soiled rinse a second time. If the glovesare of a cheap kind it is best to dry them on the hand, but 1 fine glove. after having been rubbed with a soft cloth to smooth out the wrinkles, may be hung on a line to dry like an ordinury garment, The Erepx\rmlun is an excellent thing to ave handy not only‘for rejuvenating gloves. but for removing grease spots from clothing and carpets and for spong- ing coat collars and felt hats. The ladies in this town could save considerable money by following that one’s example.” To Kill Cockroaches, A correspondent of the Confectioner’s Journal writes ns follows: I beg to for- ward you an easy, clean and certain method of eradicating cockroaches from dwelling houses. A few years ago my house was infested with cockroaches (or *‘clocks” as they are calied here), and I was recommended to try cucumber peeling as a remedy. I accordingly, immediately before bedtime,strewed the floor of those parts of the house most in- fested with the vermin with the green eel, cut not very thin, from the cucum- er, and sat up half an hour later than usual to watch the effect. Before the expiration of thattime the floor where the peel lay was completely covered with cockroaches, so much so that the vegetable could not be seen, o vo raciously were they engaged in suck- ing the poisonous moisture from it. I adopted the same plan the following night, but my visitors W not nearly 80 numerous—I should think not more than a fourth of the previous night. On the third night I did not discover one, but anxious to ascertain whether the house was quite clear of them I ex- amined the peel after I had laid it down ahout half an hour ano perceived thet it was covered with myriads of minute cockroaches, about_ the size of aflea. 1 therefore allowed the peel to remain till morning, and from that moment I have not seen a cockroach in the house. It is a very old building, and I can assure you that the above remedy only requires to be persevered in for three or four nights to completely eradicate the pest. Of course, it should be fresh cucumber peel every night. Care of the Feet. Ladies whose feet have become mis- shapen from excessively narrow boots can do much to remedy the diffeulty by care and pains, says Demorest’s Mon th- ly. Select easy, roomy shoes, and stockings of soft fabrics. Bathe the feet in water comfortably warm, never allowing it to grow cold enough to feel chilly, and wipe them thoroughly dry with a soft towel—coarse crash is almost poison to sensitive skins, and often causes irritation and a small eruption like rash, Then rub into them thoroughly about the joints or in- | jured parts, either cold cream, or, what is better, glycerince, perfectly pure, and mixed with double the quantity of water. Especially should it be dili- gently applied to the joints of the Frcut toes if they are enlarged or pain- ul, Wipe off with a damp cloth and dry A‘nmRnlly, after which powder the fect thovoughly with rice flour powder. Brush off all that comes away easily and put on the stocking, beign careful” that nosemblance of a seam comes over the sensitive joints, Adjust the shoe care- fully—never *jimp into” any article of wearing apparel—smooth the boot over the foot and ankle if it is a high top, and be certain that itis comfortable.) These cautions may seem trifles, but the feet areill, and all conditions of re- covery must be observed. Tuke care that they do notbecome very coldor in the least damp, The ankle should be s0 protected by gaiters or leggins, if there is any necessity for going out in wet weather- The difficulty 15 an in- flammation of the joint membranes, and has had many serious results, Atnight the feet may be wiped off with a damp cloth, and the glycerine and powder re- peated. Ladiey who adopt this plan, will never find soft corns coming be- tween the toes. For hifrd corns there is nothing bet- ter than a little judiciously applied caus- tie, which should just touch' the hard- ened part of the corn, never the sur- rounding flesh, Repeat every other day, first soaking the feet in warm wa- ter, and gently seraping the surface of the corn unt)l it will finally come out together. Great care = should be taken to keep the caustic from the whole flesh, and the foot should never be damp, as the application will spread rapidly. Such a course of treatment persisted in, has in several cases re- stored 1o quite passable shape and com- fort fect that were considered hope- lessly deformed, Helps to Cleanline:s. If the children s flannel dressesare all greasy add borax to the water in which you washthem. Dissolve a large table- spoonful of borax in u pint of boiling water; put about a third of it in the first suds in which the garment is to be washed (you should never rub soap di- rectly on woolen goods), another third in the next water; shake the garments thoroughly before hanging them up to ry. After the dust has been well beaten out of the carpets and they are put down again they can be very much freshened by spriokling [corn wmeal mixed with coarse salt over them and then sweeping it all off again, The best way to clean out lead pipes without the expensivaaid of a plumber is to pour & strong solulion of concen- trated lye down them saysthe Woman’s World, The lye will dissolve hair,lint, indeed all unimal and most vegetable mattor, and g0 open the pipes. About_as good a way as any to clean black silk is to take ammonia and aleo~ hol—one_ part ammonia to phree of al- cohol —mh‘ half as much hot water, and, laying the silk over an old sheet folded in four thicknesses, rub with a black rag or a sponge dipped in the mixture. Have ready some old broom handles, curtain poles or other round, smovth sticks and wrap the silk on them as tightly and smoothly as possible; it will need no ironing. 0 clean straw mattings, wash them with salt water, butmot brine. Soap turns them yellow. An old broom, with the straws trimmed evenly 'makes & good floor mop. Air the Mattresses. A great deal of attention should he given to the proper airing of the mat- tress every morning, and at least once a week a stiff brush should remove the dust which will accumulate, even in the best ordered house, and under the tufts of cotton or bits of leather, or whatever is used to tack the mattress with, At- tention should also be directed to the edge of the mattress, where the braid is sewed on, for dust sifts under that. Where the bedroom is also the dressing room, dust cannot be avoided. but it muy at Jeast be changed, and it need not be allowed to accumulate. Seasonable Suggestions, The keeper of a large and *\‘Nsh boarding house in Lexington avenue, New York, has oat meal porridge put on the table for all the boarders at break- fast eyery morning, and he says it is regularly eaten by every boarder of both sexes in the house. A “very large num- ber of the boarding houses of the city now_provide oantmeal porridge as o breakfast dish and it is favored by all hands, voung and old. Yet it would have been a curiosity for most of the boarders twenty years ago. For sandwich rolls the bread should be baked the day before, but very thin, not buttered, but spread with beef or ham chopped fine as if grated, and mixed with salad dressing. Delicious Waffles.—Half a pint of cold boiled farina, half a pint of rice flour, two tablespoonsfuls of wheat flour, one pint of milk, one tablespoonful of butter, two eggs, well beaten. Frozen Brown Bread.—Toast and dry four thick slices of brown bread; pound and sift through a fine sieve; boil a pint of cream; sweaten with a half pound of sugar; pour in a pint of fresh cream and Jet cool; when cold turn into a freezer and let freeze; when frozen beat in the brown bread; take out the darker; repack the tub, cover and stand aside to harden. Biscuit Glaces,—Put a quart of cream on to boil. Beat half a pound of sugar with the yolks of six eggs together until very light; stir them with the boiling cream, and stir over the fire until it be- gins to thicken.
