Echors from the Jury Room. ‘There 18 littls abatement of interest in the Helmick case. Soveral of the jurymen who live outside the city lingered in town until yesterday obtaining much-needed rest. It is safe to say that no jury iu recent years has returned a verdict that seews to meet with more universal satisfaction than this one, and the jurymen who appeared in any public places were yesterday receiving the congrat- ulations of the multitude. Two of them were in a Broadway store yesterday morn- ing discussing tho case and talking over the scenes and incidents in the jury room. “We were 8ixto six on the first bullot,” said one of them, ‘“and we remaincd 8o until after breakfast, all rumors to the con- trary, notwithstanding., There was but very littlo discussion either way, and in the morning for the purpose of getting an expression from the otho fellows who desired tho couviction of tre preacher, tho six of us wno were votng for acquittal concluded we would give them one vote and note its effect, in the hope that it would break the silent and dogged manner of votng. We did so, and the vote stood soven for conviction and five for acquittal. This had the effect of making them talk a little, nnd the rest of us were beseiged wit! a good deal of spirit. We didn’t think it significant that the five Catholics on the jury voted steadily and silently for conviction unul after this, nnd then we were reason- ably suro they desired the conviction of the v cher. We were not surprised then when our next ballot showed six to six again, Juryman French dia avbout all the talking on the other side. The rest were silent and sly. I'rench wanted Helmick conyicted because ho had gneddied in the love affairs of Palmer. He thought he ought to be punished at least to some extent for this. We replied we would be willing to have Helmick sent to jail for two or three days1f we felt sure.we could have the fel- lows who entered into a conspiracy to as- sault him sent to the penitentiary for two or toree years. This was all that French stuck out for, that Helmick ought to be punished for meddling. Finally, just beforo dinner, some of them intimated that they were getting tired of it and- had a different understanding of tho court’s instructions, and the ballot that followed resulted in nine for acquittal and three for conviction, French being one of the three. After dinner he seemed to feela little better, and our ballot stood eleven to one for acquittal. The last one to hang out was Jimmy Clinch. It was hig first jury, and he seemed to have made up his mind before the case was en- tirely submitted and the judge's instructions received. He is a devout Catholic, and ap- porently conscientious, and seemed to think that a change of his ballot meant a sacrifice of some sacred vrinciple. He voted in silence. We were all in excellent good humor, in fact, were that way all the time, and we suw that it would be necessary if we wanted to get out at all to take a little advantage of Jimmie, and wo said to him, ‘I.ook here, Jimmie, do you want to stay in here all by yourself until you cast that vote? ‘The rest of us are through voting and we're gowng home. You want to be locked up in here another night do you? ‘No, 1 don't,’ said mmie. We took a vote quickly and Jimmie's ballot was cast with the majority. It was an important case, but we ought not to have been out over two hours. That time woula be required for the decent considera- tion of the evidence and the points involved. It was a hard trial to us, and we don’t want any more of it.” . = Cost is not considered in Eisoman’s glove salc tomorrow. e Water sets in beautiful designs at Lund Bros., 23 Main st, S Gillette & Freeman, decorators, 23 Pearl The Mankattan sporting headq'rs 418 B-way. e Eiseman’s special glove sule Monday.

A more degraded crowd has not assembled in court room in many a day than was seea in Justice Headricks' office yesterday. It was mainly composed of the dwellers in the duyouts n “Duck Hollow,” and a more ig- norant, dirty, lawless and altogether dis- gusting set it would be impossible to imag- ine. The horde had gathered to hear the re- volting details of one of the most norrible cases that was ever set for a hearing Lefore a magistrate. The Mowery rape case was on trial. George Shedd and Margaret Mowery and James Mikesell are charged as being the principals. The woman, Magrgaret Mowery, is held as a principal, as the Iowa law does not recognize un accessory before the fact. The Mowery woman was on trial vesterday. The evidence developed the fact that the wo- man enticed the prosccuting \witn. eloven-year-old girl named Hattie Banther, and her nephew, Jessio Mowery, fourteen yeurs of age, into her house fora vile pur- Dose, and was an eye witness to what followed. Another girl of the same ago and & soven-year-old boy were also enticed there for the same purpose, but they refused to do as directed by the Mowery woman. The Banther girl told a very straight story, and stated that the defendant kept watch at the window. While on the stand the prosecuting witness was not questioned about her relations with the other defendants, but at other times told that she had been criminally intimate with all of them, aud that they had given her nickels. As the case is investigated, the most_hor- rible depravity is brought tg light, and the facts are even worse than was at first* supposed. The case was not concludad when court ad- journed, and the defend®t was held in $500 bonds until 9 o'ciock Monday morning. She could not give it and was ordered taken to jail. At this a lively scene eusued, The woman fainted, or pretended to, and when picked up set up o serios of shrieks and howls tnat were ear-splitting. She was taken into a side room and quieted, und was then taken to jail. he evidence against the outfit is convino- ing, and there is ittle doubt but that they will each receive long sentences to the peni- tontiary. ‘fhe nauseating details of the case at. tracted the usual crowd of scandal seekers, - Why pay $2.25 for a_pair of gloves when you can get them for 69 cents at Eiseman's special sule Monday. — Beautiful rustic hanging baskets at Lund Bros., 23 Main st. — Wanted for cash—Nebraska or North- western Roports, S 12, Bee Ofice, Council Bluffs, —_— Wo want you to list your rental property with us und we will secure you good, reliable tenants.

The artesian well at Charleville, on the Warrego riv and, is the newest and most remarkable instance of the natural resources of marvelous Australin, says the Queenslander. The well is situated quite near the railway station, but in one of the most unlikely places that could have been imagined. Who on earth would have expected that this artesian well, which is the best in the world, or at all events yields the largest amount of water, was sunk on the top of a sandy bummock? Yet, so it is. The sight was chosen by the hy- draulic engineer, J. B. Henderson, for reasons only known to himself, but which have been amply justified. Crossing the swampy flat leading to this hummock attention is drawn to a wide channel cut through the drift sand, and it is explained that the out- flow of water had done tnis eve the ap- paratus for conurolling it had been ob- tained. The bore itself looked u harm- less enough kind of thing. It might have been taken for arather high stand- pive placed in an idiotic position in the bottom of a hole 60 or 70 yards long, 80 broad, and 10 feet deep. But a moment’s observation showed that the harmless-looking stand-pipe had’ thade the hole. Asa matter of fuct, the water when it was tapped rushed up in such a volume that it washed away the sand around the bore in a few mifiutes and cleaned out the foundations of the derrick and threatened to wreck the whole con- trivance. 1f they had not gota plu into it pretty soon it would have washe Charleville into the Warrego. On top of the pipe there had been fixed a right-angle bend, so that the water can be turned in any direction. Subsequently a nozzle, one inch in diameter, was attached to the pipe, and when the water was turned on it ascended in an even jet to a height of nearly 100 feet, returning to earth in a heavy shower or dissipating in mist clouds through which tho rainbows played with an effect that was as beau- tiful as it was wonderful. It seemed that the visitors would never tire of looking at it. They simply stood acd gazed, hardly saying a word, for in the presence of this marvelous phenomenon speech seemed poor and commonplace, and the mind simply gave itself up to child-like wonderment. g -~ Hara-Working RRosa Bonhaur, Rosa Bonheur, the greatest animal painter of her time is sixty-seven years old, yetshe says she has still enough work in her mind to fill two lifetimes, suys the Indianapolis News. In 1850 she bought an old house in the'village of By, on the banks of the Seine, not far from the forest of Fountainebleau. There she has lived and wrought ever since. She has added stables and a studio to her house. In the stables and grounds she has had from time to time a veritable menagervie of animals, in-- cluding lions, chamois, bears, gazelles andanelk. It is refreshing to read that her studio conteins not an article of bric-a-brac and scarcely anything that is not needed in the great work of the great artist. No kickshaws and no trash. She has always been an early visor. She says the morning is the best time for work. Her amimals are also more docile then, She spends much time out doors, walking or riding in a little carriage which she herself drives. At her worlk and out doors she wears a man’s clothing with a peasant blouse. Her life has been devoted to her art, pure and simple, and rich has been her reward. There ave some wrinkles in her face now, but neither her marvel ous mental or physical powers have weakened one whit, Her enthusiasm keops her always young. - A Modest M A thin, careworn-looking man, hay- ing a pencil and tablet in his hand, called at a house at a house on Second avenue the other day, says the Detroit Free Press, and said to the lady as she opened the doo “*Mudam, I am canvassing for sub- iptions for a poor family. Will you put your name down for small sum?"”’ s it & worthy family?” “Yos, indeed Do you know them personaily?” “I do, mu’am.’ **And are they,really in need?” “They certainly are.” Very well— l‘\ give you a quarter.” She put her name down and handed him the money, and he had reached the gate when she calied him back and said: It has just occurred to me that it might be your own famity.” “Exactly, malam. It is my family, but modesty forbade me to say so. I am not one who seeks to push himself forward, though I would doubtless get along better 1f I was. Thank you, ma’um, I know the family, and I asture you it is all right—all right.” The New England Towa Moesting While New England led the other colonies during the years preceding the armed resistance first made at the old North bridge ut Salem, and Massa- chusetts led New England, Boston led Massachusotts, and more than any other man, Sam Adams led the town of Bos- ton, says a writer in the New England The great historian of the colonies in Amerion, George ays of Sam Adawms, that he ype and represontative of the New England town meeting.” He was thoroughly in sympathy with the dem- ocratic idea which made such & meet- MARCH 16, 1890.~SIXTEEN PAGES., ing possible. ‘‘He obtains,” wrote Hutchinson, *“tis chief dependence from the Boston town meeting, where originates the measures which are fo'- lowed by the rest of the tow and, of coarse, are ndopted or justifidd by his assembly.” He was a typical New Eng- lander, rnd his influence shows on all sides. He is even responsible for our caucus, whith has of late feemad to be awakening from its lethargic state, Tt is not aifficult to trace the connection between his company of ship builders or calkers on the docks of Boston, and the caucus, which seems to us so time- honored. But he was only a true son of the town, and such true sons are even now to be found, not only here in old New England, but alsoin all the New Englands that ave rapidly obtain- ing the balance of power in our west and northwest. ol A CAVALRY CHARGE, Wild Exuitation of Riders in the Roar of Battle, We had been held in reserve on the second day at Gettysburg so long that men and _horses became nervous and afraid. My horse was an old veteran who would drop his head and pick at the green grass with a battery firing on each gide of us, but as the moments dragged away on this occasion he evinced a woman's nervousness, says a writer in' the Detroit Free Press. I looked down the line and saw that the alignment was constantly being broken by the horses backing up or forging ahead. They could see the fighting to the right and in front, and the smoke from the union battery to the left and in frontof us drove back and over us, and the horses breathed it and blew 1t out of their nostrils in gasp: A tremor of excitemen shiver—rand own the line. The wind had shifted a bit to blow the smoke to our left, and down ncross the meadow we saw the confederate cavalry forming with the green woods for a background. Jeb Stuart’s men were there, Ashby’s men, men from Hampton’s Legion, Imboden’s Virgin- juns, Rosser's Rangers, guerrillas from Mosby’s command. There were fragments from every cavalry command we had met on the turnpikes of old Virginia, and there wasn't a squadron which wouldn’t stand for a charge. The bat- tery began firing more rapidly, and there wasn't a man of us who did not realize what was coming long enough before we got the word. Some of the horses knew it, too. You could feol them filling their lungs and stringing up their nerves for hard work. The troopers in gray wheecled into line under a fire which must have tried the nerves of the bravest, and then the com pact mass got the word to advance. They were coming for our battery, which was without infantry supports. There we stood. two thin, short lines,e representing a thousand dragoons, bt not numbering one-half of that figure, and a body of five to one was moving down upon us. I saw several of the gunners look back. They saw the odds and wondered, perhaps, why we did not run avay. . ““Attention!” We had obeyed the order before it was given. “Right dres We were a minute aheod of the com- mand. “Forward—draw sabres—guide right —trot!” Ah! We are off! The gray mo ves north and the blue moves south. We are going to meet 1n the meadow below. We m ust hold them back until infantry supports can be brought up. Every man knows that he is moving down into a maelstrom of death, but no one lags. A strange exultation creeps into the heart. Ttisasif you had heard some grand, good newsand wanted to shout over it and tell everybody of your good luck. **Gallop---charge!” . Death!” Why,if one could die a score of times 1nstead of only once, there would be no fear. I sit so lightly in the saddle that my horse seems to huve no weight to carry. He skims over the ground as if he had wings, and I begin cheering and yelling in chorus with my comrades, It is a living missile of 500 men thrown atthe front of 8,000. What a_crash there will be!l How horses will go down and men pitch from their saddle! Afraid? *~ No! Why. man, I would not miss the scene for a year’s life! My hand clutches the sa- bre with a strength I did not know I possessed. I feel a hunger for blood such as I never felt befove. “Yil Yi! Whoo—rah!” and we strike them fair in the center. The 500 have the greatest momentum, and we drive thirough the 3,000 as a wedge is pounded into soft wood. Men strike at ice. There is a flash, flash, and a pop! pop! of pistols. T strike back. I feel the desire of the iger to slay. “Rally!” We have driven through the mass, and the bugle sound the call to gather for the return. The horses obey it without a touch of the rein. It seems that the whole living mass is riding in a circle, and that there is blood on every man and horse. All of a sudden we shoot under the smoke-cloud into shine---not the 500, but the 300---and the oattery opens again. We are to the right of it, and 1t sends grapeshot into a wild mob to drive it.back into the cover of the woods. It is a sight to look down over that woods. Five hun- dred dead and wounded men and horses are lying theve. It is only as Lsit on my horse and look over the field that I begin to feel weak and grow frightened. My head begins to swim, things grow dark, and_some one helps me to the ground. I have a pistol ball in my shoulder, and the blood is running down my back from a sabre cut on the head. —a sort of out from the sun- N CARTER HARRISON'S PLUCK., He Tackles Threo Burzlarsg and Locks Up One of Them. Mayor Carter Harrison appeared role of a hurg cher Fri- day, and, after a steuggle, landed nis man, with the aid of the putrol wagon, in the West Lake street, station, say the Chicago Herald. About 3 o’cloci Friday afternoon a neighbor of Mr. Hurrison’s saw three men enter the house. Marshfield avenue, just in rear of the ex-mayor’s residence, The neighbors, knowing that the house was owned by, Mr. Harrison, notified him of the intraders’ actions, and the ex- mavor, calling on a friend who was at hand, sallied forth to do or die. Mr. Harrison's tactics showed that the coun- try had missed the services of a great soldier when the ex-mayor did not enter the army. Placing his friend at the front door to cut off retreat, he warily marched himself round to the back door where, before he had time to deploy his forces, the invaders burst upon him,, The odds were three to one, but a Kentuckian never hositates at such a teifling inequality as that.and, though he was outnumbered, Mr. Har- rison made for one of the party,grabbed nim, and, despite his struggles, held fast to him. Signaling to the corps of observation to bring assistance, he un- aided held his man. The Lake Stre wagon soon rolled up, and the prisoner was taken to the station, where he gave the name of Joseph Borland, and eaid that he and his friends had en- tered the house for the purpose of stealing lead pibe, HONESTY OF WOMEN. A Man Who Says They Always Re- turn Borrowed Umbrellas. “Did you ever now a woman to fail to return a borrowed umbrella?”’ asked adealer in heso articles, addressing a Boston Globe reportar, I ean’t say I ever did.” “ Nobody else dia,” said the dealer, emphatieally I have been a long time in the business of selling them, and T have made a special study of woman in connection with the t rowed umbeella phase of social ethics, and 1 have yet to learn of n case in which she has abused the confidence reposed in her when she was lent an umbrella to protect hersell when she was caught in a suaden shower. She either returns it in person or sends it with verbal or a pretty note of thanks at the first opportunity. When a man comesin here to buy an umbrella and I got chatting with him, [ ask the ques- tion. point blank: *'Did you ever lend a woman brella?” HYer “*Did ghe ever relurn it?"" ‘‘Yes,” ‘Then I go to a book T keep for this purpose, nnd make an entry in this form: ‘Interrogated another today (en- tering the date). Answer: Lent and returned promptly.’ Here is the book.™ And the dealer showed to the reporter a book with many pages of entries in the form given, covering a number of years. No, sir,” repeated the dealer, with strong emphasis, as thera por took his leave, “‘a woman never fails to re turn a borrowed umbrella.” Gladstone’s Daily Life. Mr. Gladstono livesn very regular Iife at his home. He breakfasts lightly about 7 o'clock, and shortly before 8 walks to the church for prayers, writes a correspondent of the Philadelphia Times. To the intelligent observer the sight of tho great statesman walking to church at tids early hour in the morn- ing canuot fail to be interesting. Clad in a long coat, tightly buttoned, with a a long shawl wrapped closely around his neck, and wearing a soft felt hat, his appearance is decidedly picturesque. Upon his rveturn to the castle from morning prayers he retires to hisstudy, where he reads and answers. with the aid of his secrotavy, his enormous mass ot daily correspondence. There is no regular hour for luncheon at the castle, and it is partaken of by those at home at various times. In the afternoon Mr. Gladstone takes a walk in the grounds, and if the weather is propitious usually engages in his favorite exercise of trec- chopping. He dines at 8 o’clock, after- wards reads or writes, and at 10 vetires for the night. Though abstemious in his habits, he usually drinks bitter beer with his lunch and a glass or two of claret or port at dinner. Mr. Gladstone is not in any sen etic, is a gener- ous liver and is a great belicver in the virtues of a glass of good port wine- When engaged in speaking his fillip is a compound of sherry and egg, which 1s prepared by Mrs. Gladstone with as much anxiety and care as if it were the elixir of life Mr. Gladstone never smoked. He acquired his habits at a period when tobaceo smoking was gen- eraily regarded as somewhat vulgar among the better classes.
