At the meeting Monday evening there were not coough members prescot Lo consti- tute a quorum, but it is desired to have a full attendunce Friday night, as there is business of great importunce to be transacted. Yesterday afternoon Justice Hendricks heard the case of the state vs, Charles and Jobu Faust and William Horn, charged with unlawfully seimng fish ut Lake Manawa. They were found guilty and fined $10 and costs each. They left their team for security, and returned to their home at Plattsmouth. The case of Stewart & Haas vs Wright is occupying the attention of *Squire Schurz’ court. 7T'he defendant Las charge of a pas- tare for the plaintiffs, and they charge that he bas neglected to turn over all of the money received. He alleges that the day of scttlement was not until November 1, and that be was ready to account for all mooey received at the proper time. ‘The Brownell-Chapman case will be sub- mitted to the jury in the superior court this morniug, after a trial of nearly a week. Brownell & Co. sued Chapman for $604 and interest for machinery furnished for the steamer M. . Robrer, and the defendant ‘brings in a counter claim for §1,500 dam- mges, occasioned by the delay in getting the ‘boat ready for service. The case has been stubbornly contested. Yesterday forenoon switchman named Jones was in a South Main strcet saloon, whon & one-armed stranger inquired the'time, Jones pulled out his watch when the stranger asked to be al- Jowed to examine it. Jones handed it over, and soon afterward the ticker flew out of the door, closely accompanied by the single- banded stravger. Jones related his tale of Wwoe to the polico and was directed to get a carriage in whi to go after the thief, but a8 1t was four bours later before he appeared ‘with the carriage, the police declined to take any further action in the matter. It is understood that a motion for a writ of ‘habeas corpus in the case of J. J. Frainey will beargued before Judge Aylesworth to- morrow. Messrs,. Gannon, of Omaha, and ‘Ware and Mynster, of this city, will have charge of his case, and Moessrs. Smith aud Askwith will resist the application. It is Wwhispered that in case this move 1s unsuc- cessful, an attempt will be made to gat Frainey across tho river, by bringing a case in the United States court, The general be- lief is that Fyainey will turn over his prop- erty and settle the case, if he is unsuccess- ful in otherwise getting out of the clutcies of the law. A misunderstanding lead to quite a contro- versy at the city building yesterday morn- ing. The residents on Third uyvenue, west of ‘Twenty-eighth street, complain that the waterworks company has laid mains, made house connections and the city is paying for hydrants there, yet they can not secure water, 88 the company will not wrn it on, notwith- standing that they have offered to pay in ad- wvance. Mansger Hurt stated that this was because the owner of the kouses had not sigued an application for house connections 8 the rules of tho company require,although he had agreed to do so before the connections were made. It was admitted that it was o bardship to compel the tenants o carry water several blocks, and Mr, Hart agreed 10 turn on the water privided such action ‘was not established as a precedent.

GENERAL AND PERSONAL NOTES. Will Have the Hotel ined—The City Mars Makes an Barly Morning Move. The Council Alley Cond shal A Narrow ¥scape From Doath, A narrow escape from death was that of Charles P, Platy, of the Electric Light com- pany, and Lou White, a well known young man of this city, who went to Lake Manawa Monday evening to shoot ducks. They were out in & smail skiff, shooting by the light of @ large headlight placed in the bow of the boat. It was nearly 10 o’clock, and they had been having remarkably good success, when they heard some geese a short distance away. - They managed to get near enough for n shot, and both rushed to the bow of the boat. In the excitement of the moment, with the goess beating the water with their wings as they rose in the air, and ducks rising on all sides of them, while the illuminated space in front of the glaring neadlight seemed alive with wildly dashing objects, what wondor was it that the boat was_overturned and the bunters prec tated into the chilly waters of the lake, With great presonca of mind they decided to stay by the boat instead of trying to swim to shore, as in the latter case they would almost surely have drowned, or, if they had succecded in reaching shore would soon have perished from exposure. They were in the deepest part of the lake, about three hundred yards from the pavilion on the shore, in what was the old channel, where there is about thirty feet of water. They tried to propel the boat to the shore, but were soon tired out and had to give up the attempt. There was nothing to do but 1o vling to the boat, and Wry to summon as- sistance from the other side of the lake, over half amile away. As one of the rescuers stated yestordoy: i ever thero was a pitiful cry for help it %ame over the waters of Lake Manawa Monday night.” Fortu- nately tho cries w heard by Mrs, I\ C. Reed, wife of the owner of the Manawa motor line, who happened o be awake, and tho alarm was soon given, Mr. C. O. Ma- Jowney hud not retired, us the hunters bad hors in his barn, was awaiting their re- they had informed him that they would be back about f past 10 or 11 o'clock. IDlverything was locked up, but the boat houses wero hastily broken open, aud s0on two boats were headed out: across the lake on the noblest of errands. ‘They were mauned by Colonel F. C. Reed, C. O. Malowney, Mr. Wright and his two sons, William Ballon, Hugh Morrison and Mr, Bell. By the time the boats reached the scene of distress the hunters were com- pletely exhausted, White was entirely un- conscious and Platt nearly so. Platt was lifted into the boat, but White could hardly be disengazed, his hands, stiff and rigid, clutching the partially submerged boat in a vise-like grip. ‘The chilled and exhausted limbs of both re- tained in unconsciousness the same position and tension as in the desperate and almost hopeless struggle for life in which they had been engaged for over half an hour. The boats were rowed to the nearest shorg where the already stiffened garments wero torn and cut from tho bodies of the young men. They were hurriedly carried to o shauty near by, in which there fortunately happened to be a stove, and a fire was kin- dled. Cots were 1mprovised, and then be- gan a stubborn battle between life and death, For flve long hours the rescuers worked in an endeavor to restore suspended animation in the half frozen bodies before them. It was rub and pound, pound and rub with lit- tle variation. HBottles of hov water were ranged about the unconscious forms, and whisky was forced down the throats of the insensible hunters, It was found necessary 10 use o wedge to force open White's mouth, his jaws beingso rigidly set that mnothing else would sufice. After four hours and a ‘half of such heroic treatment Platt bezan to ver, but it was fully an hour luter before White showed any encouraging signs. At 8 o'clock yesterdsy morning, the suffer- ers were brought back across the lake, and weres made as comfortable as possible until yesterday afiernoon, when President Wright, of the electric light company, went down from the city in a hack, and brought them to the residence of White’s mother, on Firab avenue, Li evening they were as well as could be expectea vnder the circum- stances. ‘Pheir bodies were covered with livid braises, the result of the pounding and rubbing of the rescuers in their attempt at resuscitation. They were soro from head to foutand from ouneside to the other, but anima- tion and circulation were fully restored, and they are on the high road to recovery. 1t was a terrible cxperience for them, and they will carry with them to the grave a vivid recollection of the horrors of that awful night. To the untiring energy of their rescucrs they owe their lives. Nothing short of the rough and seemiugly unmerci- ful treatment accorded them would have availed anything, and the recipients may well be fillea with gratitude to those who in- flicted on them the most merciless drubbing they ever experienced. That it was a most narrow escape nono know better than the rescued ones, and it is a matter of congrutu- lation to know that they, their rescuers and friends may hereafter recount without a pang, the story of that November night thav came 80 near bringing the keenest sorrow to two pleasant homes.

Another carload of grief, billed to a cer- taln member of the police force, has arrived at its destivation and is being uuloaded at the said blue coal’s frout door, (Charges of a very serious nature have been preferred against Captain F. P, Fow- ler and the matter is in the bands of Chief Lucas, who is 1‘u-hmusl,y couductiog an_in- v tion, The charge agawst the oficer in uodue intimacy with the wife of Frede- rick Brownold. Tt s alteged that in August, \ Fowler took the Brownold woman to Western house on Upper Broadway, where the officer had secured & room, and thav thon and at divers other times indulged in namerous indescretions. The divorce case of Brownold against h wilo was tried in the district court last Sat- urday, and a decree was granted. Browunold now states that he knew of all the facts ro- garding Fowler's connection with his wife, over a year ago, but he was working to se- cure a divorce, and did not want to make Any movo or say anything further until the case was ready to be’ submitted in court, Brownold states that he does not know of his own personal knowledge that Fowler is as his information argely hearsay ucerning what he does know, he us follows: *I know that Fowlgr hanging around my restaurant reat deul more than he should have doue, in fact, when he had no business there. [ often tried to find out what he wanted, or if there was anything I could do for him, but he wenerally gave me an evasive auswer, Once he came in because le felt friendly, and another time he wunted to borrow somo of my sheet music. He said his wife was a singer, and he wanted to goet it for her. I toid him I aidn't like to lend it, for it was generally soiled on such occasions. Others told me that he was intimate with my wife, but I didn't see anything absolutely wrong between them. A painter named Car- lin, who works for me,. did see somothing, und he told mo about it. Tdon't want another man's home broken up as mine has been, but I don’t think a man who i8 guilty of coming between u wan and his wife is fit to be on the police force, and least of ull to be captain of the force, [ didn’t intend to say any more about it, but it has leaked out, and the chief has becn told of it. He came to me and I told him just what the facts were as L knew them. Ho said he was going to investigate the case, out I don 10w what he has done about it since then.” J. W, Carlin, the painter to whom Brown- old referred, was locked up, and he told a straightforward swory re- garding his knowledge of the case. Said he: “A year ago last August 1 worked for H. Niles, and boarded at the Western house on Upper Broadway. I knew both Mrs, Brownold and Officer Fowler by sight, and about 8 o'clock one afternoon they both went up stairs and went into a room just across the hall from mine. Neither of them boarded or roomed at the house rngulnrl_\n 1 don't know how long they remained there, for I did’nt see them come out. I was in my room and saw them go in. The house was then run by a mon named Larkius, and T went to him and told hin I would leave tho house if he allowed such actions as that. He said that T must not'say anytning about it, for 1t would get him into trouble. I know that ne frequently reuted rooms for such purposes, and he toid me that I might do the same thing if I wanted to. 1told the story to Mr. Johnson, who runs the picture galiery on Ubper Brondway, and afterwards Fowler must have heard of it, for he stobped me on the street about fouror five weeks af- terward and asked me if Ihad told that [ saw him go into a room at the Western house with Mrs, Brownold. Isaid that I had, and he said that when he heard it he wtended to get his gun and come right down town and shoot me, but his wife prevented him. He suid 1f I said any more about it he would fix me. Ho then told me that if 1 wanted to go along and keep my mouth shut I could go anywhere I pleased and it would be all right, for he wouldn’t molest me, and he would be my friend. Since then ho has al- ways recognized and spoken to me when he has passed we on the street. Iknow that ho ‘was the officer who went into the room with the woman, and I know that the woman was Mrs, Brownold.” The Johuson picture gallery was visited, and the proprietor asked to tell what he knew of the case. **Well,” said he, ‘‘it was some time ago, and I hud almost forgotten aboutit. You see, the first I heard of it was what Carter told me. He said that it was a policeman, but did not say whatone. Brow! old is an old friend of mine, and I thought it my duty to tell him what was going on. 1 did so, and it was the first he knew about it. Ho asked her about it, and she did not deny it, but she laid it up against me, as I could tell by the way she looked at me after- wards. [ made up my mind then never to interfero in any moro domestic dificulties, and if a man ws 100 blind to see what was going on, his wife coula do as she pleased until kingdom come and I would never say a word, even if he was my own brother. One day I was gowg down Main street when Fowler came up to me and wanted to know if 1said he took Mrs, Brownold to the West- ern house, and I said that 1did not. I said that it was some policeman, but I did not know which one. ‘Then he told me how near he came to coming down to shoot me, but his wife prevented him,' ‘This 1s substantially what is in possession of the chief, and is the ground for the charges agamst Fowler. At the time that Brownold brought his divorce suit it was stated that the charges implicating Fow- ler were to appear in the petition, but some letters received from his wife about this time furnishea all the necessary proof, so that but one churge was made, and that was regarding the man James Higgins, with whom she left the city on the 2d of last January. As it became whispered arouna that a policeman was implicated in the case, several of the members of the furc? interested themselves in flnding out the proper party, in order to reliove in- nocent men from the odium which the affair cast upon the entire force, It is understood that no specific charges have yet been pre- ferred before the mayor or council, the mat- ter hinging at present upon the personal in- vestigation to be conducted by the chief, Following closely as iv does upon the re- cent sensational development, of affairs in the case of ex-Policeman Scott, the case causes considerable adverso comment, and the question 18 repoatedly asked why the city cannot have its police force composed entirely of moral, intelligent men, who will be a credit instead of a disgrace to the city. Thus far it bas been the men who have en- joyed the most implicit coufidence of the chief who haye gotten into trouble. Scott was the pride aud especial pet of the head of the force and was heralded as the ‘‘best man in the state.)’ Fowler enjoyed sufficient trust to be made captain of the force but a short time ago, notwithstanding certain un- favorable features regarding him which de- veloped in connection with the Scott case. At that time Tiie BEE urged the necessity of a wholesale investigation, insisting that there were other men on tho force who should be removed, but the investigation was not made, If it is more satisfactory to those in authority to refuse to take any action in the matter until affairs have devel- oped ns in the Scott and Fowler cases, the public can undonbwdlxnund it, but would do so unwillingly. general purifyin the department is needed, and it ‘'will be had whether the proper ones to engage in it see fit to inaugurate it or not, e 8.

Dickinson eight years ago was manager of some mining property at Commonwealth, Wis., says a Los Angeles special to the New York World. There was a strike of miners employed by him, in which Dickinson came out best, and the strikers swore vengeance. A few days after the strike was settled—Dickinson’s six-year-old boy Willie did not return home from school, and the miners were suspected of having made away with him, Since that day his. parents have never set eyes on their child, The father spent a fortune in trying to discover the boy’s whereabouts. Pinkerton’s dete: tive agency was énlisted* in the search, and & standing reward of $3,000 was offered for kuowledge of the boy’s whereabouts. About two weeks ago a bright, intel- ligent lad was found roaming around ast Los Angeles by o policeman, who took him to the boys’ and girls’ homo. The boy told a strange tale. He said his name was Willie IS. Dickinson; that about six or seven years ago strangers took him from his home to Chicago,)! where he was ubandoned on the streets. He fell in with osher boys and made n living seliing papers and blacking boots titl 1883, when he rode to Sacramento on a trake beam.

Price 50 cents, BUDDHA’'S BEAD EYEBALL. A Precious Eelic Beligiously Guarded by Pagan Priests. Among the sacred relics of Horiu, the veritable eyeball of Buddha. There is a fine old legend connected with it, and oue is asked to believe the marvel- lous early life and adventures of Sho- toku Taisho, the mikado who founded Horiuji and left to it statues of himself, carved by his own hand at aifferont pe- riods of his life. Shotoku Taisho talked when he was four months old, and later became so proficient that he could carry on con- versations in eight languages all at once. It one believes that, he can eas- ily accept the story that when this prod- igy of legend was a year old he turned to the east and with clasped hands re- peated the invocation of his sect: “Nanua Amida Butzul” (Hail, great Buddha). ‘When he finished his prayer, he found this precious relic of Buddha'’s body, the eyeball,in his hands, How he knew that it was an eyeball proves him to have had marvellous powers ‘of divination, as it looks like nothing else but the tiny, black, well-boiled pearl that one finds in an oyster stew. The eye of Buddha is shown every day at high noon, a special mass being chanted by the priest, while the relic is being brought out and displayed, writes a correspondent. For a consid- eration, and for the welfare of the tem- ple treasury, the miss can be repeated at any hour, and the old priest was sent for and cgme with an humble brother holding a Hig yellow balo of a rain umbrella :over ‘the holy .man’s head.

The reliquary was shaped like the tombs in a cemetery—a cube, a sphere and n pyramid placed one above the other and held by silver wires, In the hollow sphere lay the tiny lit- tle dingy relic, that rattled around like a pear] or a pebble, when the priest turned and tipped the sacred object for me to see it.

A kind friend tells us that a recent pavagraph in this column relating to the Harlan county feud in Kentucky re called to his mind a story which is now soold asto be new again, says the Washington Post. A stranger had gone into one of the southern states to have a little sport with his gun, but after hunting nearly all day was well nigh disgusted at having found nothing to shoot. He was about to give up when he chanced to meet a native, with whom he fell into conversation, “I thought this was a great country for game?” said the stranger. Wual, so it war a bit ago. Ther right smart o’ game roun’ hyar afo’ the boys got to gunnin’ fur it, but I reckon its mostly killed off now.” ‘I should say it bad been.
