At the city jail they gave the uames of Cora Patterson and Flora McGimpsey, and claimed to be from Walnut, o, They were kept in the upper roots of the jail for several days and an effort made by the polico to find their parents. It was found that the McGimpsy girl had told the truth and was from Walnut, but the other had not. McGimpsy's brothors came to the eity and took her home, and the other girl was discharged after promising that she would leave the city and lead a better life, She dropped out of sight for a few duys and then returned to the city.

She de- seribed lier erring daughter, and Chief Car at once recognized her as the girl, Cora Poter- son. Mrs. Poterson was asked {o remain at the'station for a fow moments, and a special ofticer was detailed to hunt the girl if she was in the city. The first placo visited was Belle Clover's on Broadwhy, agg the girl was found there, She was taken into custody and broughtto the station. The mother was almost heart-broken when she met he daughter and learned where she had been found. The girl was very willing to return home, and wanted her niother to go to the housa of prostitution with her and help her get her trunk and clothing, but this was for- dden by Chief Carey. Both mother and daughter were kept at the station, while an officer was sent 1o the house after' the trunk. The mother and her erring dauzhter were taken to the Rock Island depotand put aboard the 5 o'clock train and sent home, The anguish of the mother was pitiable, and the girl seemed to be deeply affected and became almoct hysterical in her protestations that she would lead a better life at home with her mother, all the letters her B e Money at reduced rates loaned on chattel and veal estate security by E.

Mr. Franklin in his Sunday morning sevmon regarding parks. The impression was rec hat the reverand gentle- man attempted to score the park commis- sioners and others for the practice of frequenting the parks on Sunda Franklin denies that there was scoring given. He was endeavoring to show in his sermon that man’s outward walk and conversation should conform with his pro- fessions of Christianity. He alluded inei- dentally to the indications of a coustant at- tempt to draw men away from & propar ob- servance of the Sabbath, the tinkling of the car bells, the strains of so-callel sacred con- certs, the throngs rushing to Manawa and the parks, ete., were sl cited as incidental evidences of the tendency of the times. When asked about the matter yesterday Mr. Franklin remarked that while he b lieved there was altogether too much laxity in regard to Sunday observance, yot he did not want to be fanatical on the 'subject. Ho had not been preaching against the parks, or claiming that it was sinful to go to them, but he did not believe in having the motor com- pany hive a band to put in the park in order to draw tho people thero in crowds, and thus make money for their own poc! kots, It was this attompt to gather up the people in crowds by offoring amusements and sports any such for the purpose of money-making, which ho did not believe m. “Why, when a concert is given on Sunday they call it a sacred con. cert,’ he said. *“Phoy call everything that is for Sunday sacred.

Lrxcory, Neb, July 28—[Special to Tus Bee. ] ~Lincoln Is remarkably quiet consider- ing the fact thata great state convention is to be held here tomorrow. Only twoof the in- dependents have spoken for rooms, and these are Dave Butler, who will bo quartered in roms 87 and 88 at the Capital hotel, the lucky appartments used by Richards, and J H. Edminston, who will be stationed in 1oms 28 and 20, thoso occupied by Dr. Mercer, Instead of excitement among the trades, union men there is dissatisfaction at the w: in which they claim that Craddock manipu- ated affairs, A labor uuion mansaid today t0 your correspondent : “What right has this man Craddock to traMick with us as he has! He was expellcd from the carpenters’ union and now he s usurpimg the power to manipulate all the labor interests in the state, Hels also at- tempting to compass the defeat of Connell, our congressman, who has done more for the promotion of labor interests than any man fi congress. Instead he is trying to cleet W. Bryan to congress, a man whose only_use m laboring men is to use them for tools. ~ OFFICIAL PAPERS SELECTED, The governor has selocted the list of papers given below asthe ones in Which are to be published the pending amendments to the constitution to be voted ouat the coming election : Tie DiiLy Bee, Omah The Nebraskan, Hastings; State” Joumal, Lincoln; Ad vocate, 'Neligh; Karly Da Har- sburg: Nows,' Brewster; Republican, edar Rapids; Times, Alliance; Star, Aius. worth; New Era, Kearnoy ; Burtonian, Teli mah; Tribune, David City; Republica, Weeping Water; Times, Hartington ; Repub wn, Imperial; Gazette, Valentine; Journal, Sidney ; Advertiser, Suttor Republican, West' Points Bow; Eaglé, Dakota City; Journal, C Pioncer, Lexingtons zette, Lexing Register, Chappell; Journal, Ponca; ¥ Fremont Pioncer, Beuklemin; Republican, Geneva rl, Riverton; Record, Cu Faber, ‘Stockyille; Standard, Oxforl press, Beatrico; Quaver, Bubwell;, Kecord, 1 wood ; Leader, (i Centre; "Pribune, Hyannis; Independnt, Grand Island ; Tribune, Alma; Repullican, = Aurora; Republican, Hayes Ceutre; Sun, Culbertson; irontier, O'Neill; Phonograph, St. Pauli Gazette, Fairbury; Chieftain,” Tecumseh; Gazette, Minden ; Register, Minden; Journal, Oguk alla; Republican, Ke; ha; Observer, Kimball; Piomeer, Niobrara; Telograph, North Platte; Pioneer-Republican, Gandy !

Rakes and Charics L. Blazer, both of Cass county, have been haviug some vl Wayne: Argus, trouble over astrip of timber land in town- ship No.10. Rakes claimed that he has owned the quarter section for twenty years, and that in business relations with Blazer he deeled the proporty to Blazeon condition that it bo deeled back again. This, he says that individual refuses to do, and has,insteid, disposed of the property to Norman H. Brown. Rakes asks thut both deeds be an- nulied. Bluzer's defenso is thut Rakes deeled the laid 0 him tosquare up alleged damages, amouating to $2,00, incurred through ‘mistepresentations of the plaintiff. Each charges the other with frand. A TGHWAYNAN FOLLED, Richard Kearney of Raca, who recently leased Crabb's mills on tho bottoms, went down there last evening to see what repairs were necessiry in -order to prepare itor flouring purposes. On his way he was as- saulted by a hureulean negro who struck him over theshoulders and in the face with a club in his efforts torob Mr. Kearney. The negro failed to get any money from him, however, as Mr. l\\‘:ulmv showed U-n'udu"l- ble pluck and by making a fieree defense the miller managed W put his \]u%kv assuilant to tlight. WIIY SIE DISAPPEARED. The family of Dr, Koutz, the well known capitalist, has for nearly two wecks been mystified’ over the_disappearance of the comely girl named Mary Sterling who had boen working for then as a domestic, About fourteen days ago Mis. Koutz gave tie girl 25 conts with which to by some groc The girl went up stairs to put on_her hatand was heard afterwards coming down the steps. That was the last seen or heard of her. As shie did not return Mrs. Koutz went up to the girl's room and found everything in con- fusion, her clothing beingscattered aboutand her money—some §i0—gone. Ou the front door step was found the picce of money. Tiuw Bek has been in possession of these fucts for Some time, but in order to give w chance to the two Lincoln journals which are daily wasting valuable space in attempting to ex- plain why Tiue OMana Brescoops them every day on Lincoln news, nothing was said about it. Today a letter was received from the girl. Gha says that sho is on 8 ranch in Colorado, having suddenly taken a notion to gothere,” Ttis thought a handsome young man with a cute mustacho had something to do with her sudden determination to make the mysterious move she did.
