Two cases of scarlet fever were also reported. Aleck J. Taylor is a fourteen-year-old youngster, who'is described by his father in @ telegrat to the city marshal to be very large for his age. Another distinguishing characteristic of Aleck is that heis driving a team and a single buggy that may be stolen, The marshal received the telegram yesterday from J. A. Taylor of Cumberland, la., and in itis arequest to arrest the young mun, who is supposed to be headed this way. The team that Aleck is driving is a bay gelding and a mare whose color is not_mentioned but who has only one shoe on.

Rice, an old Grand Army veteran reached the city from the south, via one of the trains that run mtothe transfer. 1t was dark and the groat crowd that thronged the big depot rushed past him without revealing a friendly face or a kindly hand. He was an entire stranger, and in a worse condition than strangers are generally, for he was penniless, sick and in- firm, He was trying to make his way to Towa City for the purpose of entering the soldiers’ home at that place, and had tramped * wearlly from Kansas, occasionally getting a short ride, but generally walking. The long exposure had affected him seriously, and he was crippled by rheumatism, bungry and cold and suffering acutely, ho mado an effort to get up thwn in the ~hope that he could find some one willing to take care of lum temporarily, He didn't have even a nickel 1o pay hls Wiy up on the street car, and he started to walk. Owing to the breuk in the electric light machinery the city was wrapped in darkness, and the feeble old man, in endeavoring to_feel his way along, became biwildered and lost. He tramped avound_ on the bottoms until'bo became ex- hausted, and then fell to the earth and laid there until daylight. Monday morning ome of the workmen on their way to their duily duties found him lying newr tho Ogden iron works in an al- most lifeless condition. Assistance , was procured and he was taken to a grocery Store near by and kinaly cared for during the day, 1t was several hours before he could bé re. vived suficiently to tell his tale of suffering. During the afternoon Overseer of the Poor Hardin was communicated with, but did not render the old man any immediate assistance. He was anxious to continue his journey to Towa City, and when evening came asked to be taken before the city authorities, in the hope that he might get assistance that would enable him to reach his destination, The re- quest was complied with and a telephone messago was sent in for the patrol wagon, He was taken to the eity building and given the best quarters that could be secured for him, which was an iron bunk and blanket in one of the cells in_the city jail, It required two big, strong oficers to carry him into the station. Ilis aged hmbs were distorted and contrracted by rhenmatism and e was in such a physical condition that it was im- l:..mmo to get him up the stairway, where @ etter bed could have been given him in ono ofshe fomale wards, Yesterday morniig he was given matorial assistance and was sent ou bis way to lowa City rejoicing, el Gents furnishing goods, especially the litest in neckwear, at Ottenbeimer's, 414 Broadway. ——— Scott House, 3oct, meal | o matter The Members of the Bar Unite in Eulogiz- ing the Life of Colonel Bapp. FIXING THE TWIN CITY CHARTER. A Little Cbild Burned to Death—An Aged Soldier's Hard Luck—St Andrew's Society—Minor Mention. The bar association met yesterday fore- noon in the district court room to pay tribute to the life and character of the late Colonel W. F. Sapp. The tribute thus tendel given was formed by an intertwining of ind vidual thoughts, feelings and experiences, voiced in eloquence and clothed inthe most sing diction. There was necessarily ueness in the culogies thus pro- nounced, but mot more so than in the tributes of flowers with which friends seck to express thelr sympathy and sorrow, and though flow are but flowers, and words are but words, individuality was quite marked in the several tributes y ay given to the memn- ory of hiw whom all acknowledged to have been a leader among leaders “The formal proceedings consisted of a ses- sion of the district court, for the purpose of having an order given to enter upon the r ords the resolutions adopted at a recent meet- g of the bar association, The eulogies pro- nounced were in support of the proposed order. Judge Deamer, who is holding court at Avoca, had adjourncd, at the request of the members of the bar there, and in - accord- ancowith his own desire to be present at the pro. ecdings her Judge Carson, who s holding courteously called upon Judge Deenier 1o pre- side and the two, with Judge Seevers, late of the supreme bench, occupied the seats of honor. - Hon, D. . Bloomer, who had in hand the programme and the arrangements for the occasion, introduced Hon. L. W. Koss, who gave a very clear outline of Col- iel Sapp's life and delineation of his char- ter. e spoke of what Colonel Sapp had done Tor Council Bluffs, toward securing the, court here, Union Pacific terminus, the location of the institution for the deaf and dumb, the goy- ernment building and the federal courts, He dweit atlength upon Colonel Sapp's wonderful power to move juries and to win verdicts, and classed hiu n advocate rather than a court lawyer, ‘I'h timate of his powers wus seemingly acquiesced in by the speakers who followed. Colonel Capp was not bookis but was very quick tosee the controlling questions. His memory was retentive, was fluent in_apeech, curnest in utterance’ and seif-confident in his positions. His merits were acknowledged by friends and foes alike, John N. Buldwin_followed with his usual eloquence. He said that despite the earping and criticism of the uninformed, to be a law- yev required that a man should be a gentleman, should possess in- cducation and _integr i been perhaps more studious mem- pers of the bar, but none stronger than Col nel Sapp. He had a naturally legal mnd, a fine physique, a resonant voice, a great warm heart, and he was in deed and truth every inch a king. His eloquence was character- ized by force and sinceri He was a ver- dict winner. His domestic relations were of the happiest nature, and when his beloved companion was taken from him it was a blow which made him stagger, a mortal wound, from which he never rec e, *. M. Harle spoke of the influence which ; associations evidently had upon Colouel app. As_a member of the var at Mt. rnon, Q., he caught the inspiration of those who had since become among the most prominent of the mnation’s famous ones, Colonel Supp was a giant, and he dealt blows like those of a sledge hammer, rather than the thrusts of a damascus stecl.

J. Heury Wescott voiced the sentiments of the Keokuk bar in paying due tribute to the ono whom all were vieing in honoring. Judge Aylesworth also gave a few well chosen words, Mr, Jacob Sims made a brief addre: but one of the most cloquent of the hour. His picturing of Colonel Sapp's peculiar powers was graced by beauty of rhetoric which any attempted synonsis would but mutilate. Mr. Boulton and Judge Carson also spoke brietly.

C. B. Jacqliemin & Co,, No. 2 Main st, — The Twin City Charter. The city council met. as a committee of the whole yeste fternoon in the police patrol room and discussed the new charter sub mit ted by the Twin City street raily at the meeting of the council night. All tho members wero present and the city attorney was also called in, Dr. Mer- cer was present and looked after the interests of his company, assisted by Colonel Dailey. The committee met at 4:30 o'clock and con- tinued in session until dark. The charter was given o close serutiny and delibe upon section by section. Dr. any alterations or additions made that would not impair the charter or place his compan disadvan- tage compared with the Inte whose charter went through a-sailing at meeting on Monday night. The origi dinance submitted wasa true copy of the Omaha motor company’s charter, but the council desired to show no preferences to either of the corporations, and the proposi- tion was made to Dr. Mercer to make it al- most an exact copy of the charter granted to the other con This subtantially agreed to, and every provision and restric tion placed in the Tuterstate charter was in- corporated in the Twin City's fran shise, The discussion was of an informal and very harmonious natury, and the probability is that when the council meets this eveuing in special session the franch will be granted without delay or friction. = It is possible, howevor, that' the Interstate people will object to the councit granting the Twin company the vight to lay its tracks throughout t Omaha, which is owned al- most exclusively by the East Omaha land and improvement company. The land has not yet been platted and brought in as an addition to the city, and there will perhaps bea legal question raised as to the council's authority togrant franchises over streets that have not yet been dedicated to the pub- ated Mercer was willing to have rstate company, the lic. The charter granted to the Interstate company gives the right to lay tracks on any and all of the streets that are now or ms hercafter be laid out in_ that po tion of the city, and the company that owns everything there, includ- ing_the strets, will probably look with a good deal of the part of the ¢ public enterpri property.

It is not understond that the Twin City company in- sist very earnestly upou this clause cf their franchise, but 1 Mercer intimated in the committee meeting yesterday that such a privilege would bo nécessary for the success- ful carrying out of their project.

They were Patsy Galla- gher, Ed and Jim Maher and Lloyd For- graves, The warrants for their arrest charged them with assault and battery upon A. T. McEntwf, aud when he appeaved at the city clerk’s ofice and filed his informa- tion his appearance bore strong testi- mony to a serious assault, A pash four or flvo inches long extended across the right side of his head and another cnt two inches long reached from his under lip to the point of his chin,whileseveral prom- inent bruises and abrasions elsewhere con- tributed to substantiate his sto He said that he had dropped into the saloon a few mo- ments where the crowd referred to had gatnered, and where Jimmy Maher, who has recovered from the effects of the bullets that ary en- 203 Mer and Oficer Noyes deposited in his legs last summer sufficiently to get around, s engaged as bartender, Me Enthrf sa that shortly after he entered the saloon he was called upon_to treat the crowd, and after a le delay did so, He says the bartender attempted to overchar, nim for the cigars and stuff ordered and he ob- jected and threw down thecigarhe had taken and refused to pay the whole amount of the bill. This led to a dispute, which quickly drew a general attack upon him, He picked up a chair to_defend bimself with, but was struck on the head with a heavy iron spit- toon. This stunned him, and the crowd then kieked and beat him until he succeeded in reaching the door and got away from them, In the meantime a telephone message had been sent to the marshal's office calling for the police. McEnturf reached the station a few moments later, battered and bleeding. He was taken to the cf clerk’s oftl and filed the information upon which the war- rants were issued, Ho was taken to City Physician Jennings'- ofice and had his wounds dressed. Several stitches were re- quired to bring the severed edges togethor, The warrants were placed in the hands of Ofticer Beswick, and a few moments after Forgraves and E2d Maher were placed under arrest., They found at the saloon, which was ¢ id they were taken to the station, Dan Carrigg was notified of the arrest and before the key was turned on the boys he had filed & bond for their appearanc relock this afternoon.

As a boy Umberto wag éxtremely thin —as the princes of his Koike are” wont to be—and as a voung man he was deli- cate He modeled his manoers on those of his father, but he had not his father’s robust fiber, which allowed him to ¢ y both pleasure and work to excess, su the Chicago Herald. 1n the course of years he has grown stouter and stronger, but he aged prematurely, At one time he smoked to success; but one day, his doctor having preseribed ahstention from tobac he compietely renounced the habit. It is recounted that when the advice was given that he should give up smoking for a time, he answered: ‘On my kingly honor I will never smoke again.” And he has kept his word. Without leading the moun- taineer’s life affeeted by his father, his greatest pleasure consists in passing whole weeks under canvas in the moun- tains of the valley of Aosta, stalking the chamois, eating the s fare as the poasants, Like Victor Emanuel, Umberto loves an open air lifo and exe cises that fatigue the body, Ho arises at early dawn and defies all wea- ther with indifferen: Even when dressed in civilian costume he does not hesitate to allow a heavy downpour to wet him to the skin vather than put up an umbrella, nor does he shrink from standing for hours if need be, under the scorching rays of the sun on the oe- casion of some popular fete, mocking at those who seek shade and shelter, This carelessness toexcesses of weather is one of the characteristics of the royal house of Ttaly, , He can in no sense be called an aristocratic monarch; indeed, a dem- ocratic king would be the title that de- scribes him best, were the epithet not almost a contradiction in terms, Aiteets S Tale of a Haunted Wrap, A lady spent the night recently at a friend’s house as a guest,says the Wash- ington Star. he evening was a chilly one, and upon going to bed the hostess gave her visitor ajvoluminous wrap with which to keep herself warm, The lady wore the wrap all night and found it very comfortable, but, never: theless, she did not rest very well on ac- count of mysterious noises that she rd. Sometimes she even imagined that sho heard groans, so that more than once she was on the point of get- ting up to see what the matter was, In the morning at breakfast she was asked by her hostess how she had slept, and replied that she had been disturbed by unaccountablo sounds 0, how awfully interesting!” ex- med the hostess. *“And what were they lik .

But we have never had an opportunity to try it on a stranger be- fore, and ‘your evidence is, of course, conclusive, The good lady had hecome so carried v by the enthusiasm of the scientific investigation that she forgot for the time being to regard the comfort of her guest, 52 el Waging War by Wire. “The general of the future,” prominent military o to a reporter of the Milwaukee Wiscon- sin, “will be a quiet man at the end of a telegraph wire.”” To a certain extent this description up];livd to Field Marshal Von Moltke, But it will be still truer of the successful leader in the next Euro- pean war. A dispateh from London shows how England is preparing for the change, Tt says: An elaborate system of war telegraph- ing has been arranged between the ad- miralty department and the postoftic Itis now possible by this arrangement, upon short notice, to connect every tele: graph station on the coast directly with the admiralty office. Quite a contrast between the old pic- ture of “the duke of Wellington riding about amid fire and cannon balls” and a military lender who does his work ting at a desk in an office like a mer- chant, conning bulletins from his vari- ous subordinates as they come in on a “ticker,” and dispatching orders, not by aides-de-camp, but by telegraphic di pateh, just as a speculator wives b broker to “buy ten September.” There is nothihg dramatic about that way of conductinga campaign, The picturesque- ness of poetry are knocked out of war and iv has become a' grim business even in its suporficial aspects, as it always was in its underlying reality. - HowFast tees Fly.

A sailor on' an oyster pungy which had been cruising” about the oyster grounds on Magothy river landed with a_diapidated-looking watermelon under his vight arm. The mariner en- tered a near-by saloon, laid the ll»iw-u of fruit down on the bar and called for a glass of beer, It being a little late inthe season for melons a crowd gathered around to look at the sailor’s find and several of them emphatically expressed doubts as to the soundness of the melon. The sailor, innocent of what was inside of it, said to | prove that the melort was in good shape ho would plug it before carrying it to | his best girl, to whom he intended to | present it. He did so and upon extract- ing a piece of the rind about a hundred wasps flew out and made things lively about the place. It seems that the melon was somewhat overripe, and_while lying negleated in | its bed a family of wasps had bored w small hole in one end of it and taken up | their abode therein. The man who brought it to town rushed out of tho place with several of the inseets settling | down upon his face, and in his hurry ho | knocked over an Italian fruit stand, fell | on a cat, which was crushed to death and nearly knocked two policemen in the dock. The restaurant man put out his gas and left his dogs to fight the wasps.
