An old Indian who has been going around th y for the past two or three months sell- ing various articles has quit the business and ulled out for the west. Yesterday morning he announced that the Messiah had ordered him to put on his “*holy shirt” and go and dance, and he obeyed.” He visited Fearon's ' ring the forenoon dressed in his 1 with his fuce eclaborately streaked with read paint and announced that he was done working for a living and had enough to keep him until the Messiah came. He took the Union Pacifie train for the west, There were cight full-blooded Indians on the Northwestern train from the north ves- terday morning. They were a father and his sons coming from Minnesotaand going south, They were dressed in citizen’s clothes and the oll man appearad to be a very intelligent fellow. He talked froely to the passengers, and told them he was taking his sons out of the way of harm, that they had heard of the [;rnm' 1 Messiah and were very much affected y the news of his coming, and were about half inclined togoto Dakota and join the ghost dances. He said he had foucht in several campaigns with the whites and knew their strength and the futility of the Indians’ hope that they could overcome them, and to g:‘c\'(-nl his sons' getting into trouble he was king them away from temptation. _At the last special meeting of the city coun- cil anew rule was adopted that will do a great deal toward breaking the interminable tedium of the meeting proceedings and ma- terially shorten the sessions.

Carrie Wicks was passing along Broad- way in the vicinity of the Danforth block, between Eighth and Ninth streets, she was confronted by a footpad and robbed at the point of a revolver. The lady lives with her husband on Upper Broadway, and was re- turning kome after making o visit in the lower portion of the street, where she stayed later than she auticipated, Just as she ap- proached a suloon kept 1 @ little wooden building she noticed a young maa enter it from the street and leave the door open. An instant after she passed the door some one sprang out, either from the door or from a narrow entry way between the two buildings, and thrusting what she supposed to be & pistol in her face applied @ vile opi- het to her and told her to give up her money quick or he would kill he: She was too badly frightened to seream, and she quickly gave the fellow all she had, $1. He took the money and disappeared in the saloon. She got a good look at the fellow as he entered the building, and deseribes him as having a full face, dark mustache and wear- ing a slouch hat. She was afraid to continue her journey home alone and went to Justice Scburz’ residence near by, She told the jus- tice her story and gave her description of her assailant, Tt was supposed to fit Charles Phillips, a son of R. V. Phillips, and he was placed under arrest by Officer O Brien, Yesterday afterncon he was arraigned be- fore Schurz, but when Mrs. Wicks was called upon to identify him she at once declared that he was not the man who robbed her, and asked for his discharge. He was accordingly discharged and the \lg‘l't‘lfl are still looking for the fellow with a dark mustache and full faco with poor prospects of finding him. —_—— Scott House, 85 ct. meals, 250, — The great blow about heaters our would-be mpetit, are making, Have you seen a Better 318k of boators ud.

A WOMAN HELD UP BY THE FOOTPADS. Mrs. Harter's Unhappy Honeymoon— Mrs, Faulka Driven feom Home by Her Husband —Haldane's Debt ~Minor Mention, Judge Deamer {s not the hest of penmen, especially when in his hurried way he dashes off a decree with a blunt leadpencit. The fallure of the county clerk to clearly make out his pencilings in copying the record led terday to the temporary abandonment of a ase in the district court. Sometime last May W. . Woodward was appointed guard- of his aged tather, M»J. Weoodward who is in his cighty-ninth year. The decree was entered in due form, making the son the guardian of the person and property, but in the penciling Judge Deemer wrote it *‘person & property? in such a hurried manner that clerk in making up the record took the foran “1’" and made the entry to read s0 a8 to give young Woodward the guardian- ship of the old man's *‘personal property.” Yesterday the case of W, I. Woodward vs Mrs. Beach cameup for a hearing, The plaintiffl sued as guardian to have a deed set aside, which the old man had given Mous, Beach, In examining the record as to ms apvointmentus guardian it was discovered that it showed simply that he was tho guardion of the “personal property,” aud not the guardian of “the person aud property.’ Of course it was a clerical error, but the case could not be maintained with this t of a record. The matter was let go over to the nest term, and in the meantime steps will be taken o correct the record, The case peculiarone. On the part of the plaintiff it is claimed that the old man is in his dotage, and that he has become so under the influence of Mrs. Beach, who rented a house from him on Madison street, that, he was induced by her to give to ler i deed of the property, withiout receiving for it any consideration, ~ ‘I'nis deed given o few days before his son was appointed as his guardian, and now the son seeks to have the deed set aside as void and procured by fraud, On the other side it is claimed that the son has been making an annoying war upon his aged father, and that the only object the young man has is to get pos: on of the old man’s property. It is clai that the old gentleman was cared for Mrs. Beach for months before this deed was made, and that she is still caving for him. Instead of paying her for this care ho agreed to deced her the property if she would coutinue to care for him during his Iife time. This care was tho consideration. Itis further claimed that tho father, though old and infirm, is not incapa- ble of entering into a valid contract, or di posing of lus property to his owu advantage, and that in this case he acted wisely.

Yesterday morning a handsome, dark-eyed young woman of slender build and stylis Qvessed, appealed to Justice Barnett fora personal intevview.

She told him a very sad story of marital un- happiness and asked for o warrant for the arvest of her husband on the charge of steal- ing agold wateh that had been given her by her mother. She signed the necessary fu- formation and the warrant was issued, ‘The woman was Mrs. Clara Harter. She said she married her husband, Harry Hartor, in Denversix monthsazo. She says Harter won her consent to marriage after a short but ardent courtship, during which he made a lavish display of money, and spent it freely. He was then flying pretty high asa hotel- keeper, representing that he owned a valuable hotel property at Lavator, Colo. After their wmarriage in Den- ver he announced his intention of not return- ing to Lavator, but declaved that he has sold the hotel, and was looking around to pur- chase something about the size of the new Grand in this city or the Paxton in Omaha. hey lived pretty well fora short time, and then his funds un to grow short, and he had wumerous interviews with people who came to see him from the other Colorado villuge, Some of them were accompanied by deputy sheriffs and constables, and all of thew brought good sized demands for money. She soon found that her new husband had good reasons for leaving the town, und had left plenty of unpaid bills behind him, He informed his wife that there were no hotels in Denver big enough to suit his pile, and persuaded her to come with him to Omaha, where he thougnt he could buy or build some- thing that would suit him, After spending a few days there he concluded the best oppor- tunities to get into a first class hotel business eould be found in Council Bluffs, and he brought his wife over here and procured cheap lodgings for her, She remained here about three weeks, but was left alone nearly all the timg her hus- band still industriously persuing his scheme to buy a full grown !lnll'\. By this time she was convineed that the stories he had told her about himself were all fulse, that he was not a relative of apatent medicine man of the same name and a half owner in his busi- ness, as he had frequently told her, After inning him down closely” he finally told her Be \as simply a hotel cook, and had no re- sources to fall back upon but the salary ne could earn in the kitchen if he could “find somebedy willing to bire him. Immediately after coming to Omaha, she says he tele- graphed back that he bad committed suicide, and signed & fictitious name to the message. His creditors did not believe the story, and oné of them came to Omabha an had him arrested and took bhim back. He servel a short sentence for obtaining money under fulse pretenses. ‘When ho got out of jail at Lavator he cume direct to council Bluffs and found his wife, Hereached here Wednesday, and that night be robbed his wite of her gold watch an little money she still had. Yesterday morn- ‘Iug she coucluded to have bim arrested, and procured the warrant from Barnett's court, t was expected that he would return to this city, and Constable Covalt was given the warrant, Before he could be arrested, how- ever, his wife had visited Omaha and_found thestolen watch ina pawn shop on Farnam stroet, w he had securea #15 on it.

The touching and potent points in the popu- lar_story and play were vividly and truly presented, and were not, as 50 frequently happens in child char- acter plays, spoiled by being overdone. Considering the meagre i fon that can be drawn from a sparsely filled house, the work done by Gertie Homan, who took the part, of Fauntleroy, s quite remarkable. But one criticism might be justly made upon her work. In a few instances she has been ever-trained upon the iuflection. Had the child been permitted to suit her own sweet voice to the words in its natural simplicity the effect wouid have been more agreeable and artistic. But this defect occurs in buv few of the lines, and her p\n’ukim! and act- ing are so excellent in the maio that these few imperfections are scarcely worth men- tioning. The company is well balanced and cleve throughout. This afternoon Georgic Cooper will play the part of Fauntleroy.

Melley, exccutors of theestate of Dennis O'Harran. The plaintiffs are two Irish girls, nieces of the testator. In the year 1884 Dennis O'Harran went from his home in Luzerne county on a visit to his brotner in county Tyrone, Ireland. He was very weulthy and had no children, He was also very much pleased with the pretty faces of his nieces, and before he left made an agreement witn them, He saidif they would ¥0 to work und learn the millinery and sales business in a thoroughly good way he would bring them to this country at his own ex- pense, provide for them while completing thei de here,and then would furnish them with capital to start up in business in any city they might choose. The girls went to " work, In 7 they completed their apprenticeship in_Irelaud and, true to his promise, their uncle Deunis O'Harran sent or them to come to this country, and in 1589 they finished their trade in New York. Just then theiruncle died and his will left no pro- vision for them, hence the smt. In_the meanwhile the girls are working in New York and are threatening to make it warm for the defendants in the case. —_——— Dr. Birney cures catarrh, Bee Bldg, e A Mob Repulsed.
