Ben Austin denies most emphatically that he has resigned, or bas thought of resigning the office of constable, He was surprised to read such an announcement, and cannot imagine how such a report started, The concert given last evening at Masonic temple by the Methodist Mutual Aid associa- tion was well attended and enjoyed.

Mr. Campbell. the newly elected county clerk, has taken the position of deputy to the outgoing clerk, in_order to become perfectly familiar with the details before taking charge. Mr. Chambers is courteously show- fng him the mysteries, which will prove quite helpful to the new ofticial. There is talk of a_combination among the new justices of the peace by which they are to secure offices near to each other, possibly in the Mariam block, where many attorney now office.

It is greatly admired by all who see it, In the district court Judge Carson is hear- Ing the rather worn controversy over a road near Neola, to which Mr. and Mrs, Ellithrope have been for months objecting. The matter has been before the board of supervisors time and again, and finally got into the courts on an injunction suit. One of the chief points in dispute is as _to whether there was a sown erop growing on the Ellithrope Jand \when the attempt was made to open the road, or whether it was « “‘volunteer crop. A subtle query is whethor a “volunteer" crop is “a Erowing crop” in the meaning of the law. A man named Cartney appealed to Officer O'Brien last evening for assistance in getting his son, a young boy, from the grocery store of William Bohning, on Broadway. He claimed that a son of Bohning was in the habit of getting the boy in the store and making him work and kecping him away from home., The boy was being detained there last night, and when the elder Cartney went to the place to get him to come home hesays he was denied admittance and was threatened with violence if he did not go away. The patrol wagon was summoned and the boy was taken to the station, where his father secured him and took him home. He says he will prosecute the case toduy. Mr. Dobany denies the truthfulness of the report concerning the numbers and actions of some men in the rear of the stage at the opera house Saturday night while a show was bemg given. He that when the manager ot the company called his auention tothe fact that there ‘were several on the stage and in the flys who did not belong there he went personally to look after it, and found but two men who did not belong there. These were ejected. There was no beer be- Ing drunk by them, and in fact none there, The item was based on the complaini of the manager of the show, who ilnmnnud Mr, Dohany that there were twenty, and that hey were “rushing the growler” in the fiys. The firemen of No. 8 hose house had some experience in their own quarters with the enemy they are so well equipped to fight yes- terday morning. The soot in one of the chim- neys caught fire and an old and defective flue rmitted the blaze tocome in contact with he woodwork of the building. The timber caught near the roof on the east side and a fair start was being made for a good- blaze when it was discovered and extin- guished, The chairman of the fire commit- teo in the council was called to_examine the unsafe chimney and at once ordered it to be torn down and @ new one built in its place. The work was commenced yesterday. Bud Pratt, a resident of ( & narrow escape from a sevious accident terday afternoon, He was in the city dr 8 spirited team of yo horses. On Fifth vel the animals were frightened by the sudden attack of a dog and ran away. The driver held them until he reached Washing- ton avenue when one of the lines broke, and a few minutes later the buggy was upset. Pratt was caught by the wreck and the lives and was drageed underneath the vehicle for 8 block. At the point where the accident oc- curred thero was no paving and Pratt was @ragged through the mud. \When he ot clear of the vehicle he was almost suffocated by the mud and nearly drowned by being dragged through numerous puddles. Only a few bruises and an entirely ruined suit of clothes were the causualties, An eastern chemist has discovered n pro- cess of making soap from corn that bids fair to revolutionize soap making, It is claimed that 400 pounds of soap can be made from one bushel of corn, at an expense that will searcely cqual the cost of the corn at the present market prices. There are a number of gentlemen in this city who are investigat- ing the process, and if it proves to do what is claimed for it they are contemplating the erection of an extensive soap factory. Speci- ,mens of the soap made in the city by the pro- cess a few days ugo are on exhibition at one of the mly estate offices, It is ‘dark coloved and soft, and looks like the old fashioned home made soap of our grandmothers. Not a particle of “grease or oil except the small quantity contained in the corn is used in the process. The claim is made for the new soap that when it is retined ft issuperior to the finest toilet articles made by the old processes and is absolutely pure. 'flne process will be investigated fully and it it proves to be anything like what is claimed for it an important manufacturing enterprise will spring up here backed by local cavital, —_—— Scott House, Best §1.00 per day house in the city. greal 1d-be The t blow about heaters our would- ?mmpemun are making, Have you seen & Dbetter stock of heaters and lower prices than st M. & K.'s, 820 Broadway. ~ THE NEWS IN THE BLUEES, A Gang of Toughs Attempt to Break Upa Tifth Avenue Church Meeting, AN OLD SOLDIER'S ATROCIOUS CRIME. | Mynster's Railway Will Be Built—The Sewer Ditch Again.—A €couns l deel Canght at the Bloomer School Building. ] There was & most disgraceful proceeding at the Fifth averne Methodist church Sun- day night, cansed by five young roughs who were well loaded with whisky, The gang took seats in the rear part of the church, and after talking so loudly as to disturb the | congregation they became so bold that one of | them moved uptothe front, and raisinga bymn book above his head said to the | minister, Rev.

Officer Fultz came over from the Island yesterday with his clothes bespattered with mud, accompanied by a couple that attracted, agood deal of attention even before they were taken out of the vehicle that scrves for a patrol wagon, One wasa tall man with black mustache and rather finelookeng qhysique, dressed in the uniform of 4 private in the regular army. Theother was a ruddy- faced little German girl, whose brown curls reached scarcely to his waist as they marched from the street into the city jail. 'Che soldier was manacled and appeared very uneasy. The little girl was sobbing violently, and her face bore a haunted, tevrified expression. The mau gave the name of John Nickolain, and smd he was a soldier located at Fort Omaha, Le little girl was questioned by Tur reporter in his presence, and told the story of & shameful assault-that had been committed upon her by the fellow, and told it in her broken English between her sobs with such evident sincerity that every word car- ried conviction to all who heavd her. She said ner name was Mary Flohart and that she had been working ata boarding house ptby Mrs. Donahue, corner of Ninth and Pacific strects, Omalia. Her homie was in Milwaukee, which she had lefta short time ugo to cowe to Omaha, The only relative or acquaintauce sho had in Omaka was a cousin who was a_soldier located at the fort. Sun- day ufternoon she started outto find him. Among the first soldiers she accosted at the barracks was Nickolain, In answer to her inguiries concerning her cousin Nickolain told her he was well acquainted with him and that he had just left the barracks, but it she wanted to find him he would take her to nim. The readily consented to the apparent kinduess, and ° the scoundrel took her to Cut-Off Island, and got ber in the rear of @ saloon kept by @ one-legged man named Swith, Here he shamefully abused her, Smth claims, without his knowledge, Dur- ing the afternoon Nickolain induceo 8 negro to come into the room in the hope that it could be used as evidence to protect himself in case any trouble avose over the matter. The screains of the child when the negro was admitted by a back door attracted the atten- tion, it is claimed, of Smith, and he went out and ‘acquainted Oficer Fultz with the facts. | When Fultz got to the place the soldier and the negro bad flown, The girl was taken in | going rapidly. yesterday morning the soidier returned to take the child away and was promptly ar- rested, The little girl says she is only fourteen years old, and under the Towa law this maies the offense of the soldier a serious crime. He was locked up and & charge of criminul as- sault placed against him. The little girl was | given temporary quarters at a boarding house near the jail.

For some time past there have been numer- ous obscene sentences scrawled on the walls | and doors of the outhouses used by the girls at the Bloomer school building. The janitor has watched carefully and erased them each day, ouly to find them repeated in a more dis- gusting manner, At the start tho matter was reported to the school management, and y effort was made to detect tho pér- 1t was supposed at first that some of the larger boys in the school were the culprits, but this suspicion was soon proven to bewrong. The attention of the police was called to the matter, and Officer Grabam was detailed to visit the building while the school was in session, and lend what assistance he could in bunting down the scoundrel. He visited the school yesterday after- noon just before the recess hour and muade a capture. The janitor sawa man enter the building and_quickly informed the ofticer. Before the officer was communicated with the fellow had_come out und was walking through the halls of the building The janitor excitedly called to_the oficer not to let the mau get away and started for him himself. The man attempted evade him and ran into thearms of the officer. To b certain that no mistake had been made the janitor went into the outhouse again, and found another half-completed vile sentence where he had cavefully obliterated one early in the morniug. This was taken us conclusive evidence aud the patrol wagon was summoned and the fellow was taken to the central station. He gave the name of Pete Belgian, Wihen questioned he denied all knowledge of thecrimes imputed to him, and claimed that he had come to the school building for the purpose of ascertaining what kind of books it would bo necessary for him to purchase for his children, He' will be held pending a thorough investigation.

The Original Vatican Recipe for the | Reverage of the Pope Tho history of ponche o la romaine is curious, saye the American Analyst. 1t has been the summer refreshment of successive popes for over elghty years, and their chefs were threatencd with all kinds of horrorsand punishments if they | ever divulged the secretsof its prepara- tions, When Napoleon invaded Ttaly in 1796 this terrvible interdict was broken through, A son of Pius VL's chief con- fectioner, by name Molas, as soon as he found the French w CONQUerors, ran away from his father and united his for- tunes with them. This young man_ be- came the favorite s ant, of the Km- press Josephine, and after her death he- came cook to the Russian Prince Lieven, whom he accompanied to London when that prince was appointed ambassador to the court ot St. Jumes. The Russian first made his pupal beverage in London by introducing it at the prince’s table, The prince regent asked for the recipe and permitted copies to be given to a select few of his friends, and by degrees it beeame better known and is now well known all over the world, The original vatiean recipo is: “Prepare a very rich pineapple sher- bet: haveit a little tart with lemon juice, taking the greatest cave that noneof the zestor ol from the yellow rind or the bitterness from the white underlying pith,be allowed to enter the com position of this sherbet.
