She had passed tho summer at the residence of Captain Robert Griswold and was to have left for her home today to prepare for her wedding next month 10 a prominent young society man of Milwau- Kee. 1or the last two or three days she had exhibited symptoms of melancholy. The unfortunate girl 18 the daughter of John B. Cobrs, president of the Consumers’ Gas company, 164 Dearborn. Tue friends and elations in this city, while not in receipt of full particulars, do not beliove that there is anything in the theory that she committed suicide. Miss Cohrs was one of Chicago's most accomplished and beautiful society women. PROGRESS OF CHICAGO'S UNIVERSITY, Within o month ground will bo broken for tho first throo buildings of the groat Chicago university. Architect Henry Ives Cobb is now engiged in putting plans in shape to re- coive bids, and they will bo finally passed upon by the building committee and contracts let within the next two weeks. FEEDING HOGS ON PEACHES, J. C. Cemonts, a large fruit raisor in Mich- 4gan and New Jersey, has just returnod from & trip in the lattor stato and hints ata com- bination among Chicugo dealer “Peaches ought to be fifty cents a bushel nstead of fifty cents a basket,” said he, In ew Jevsey, ho says, thousands of bushels of ripe pe are being fod to the hogs, because the raisers can’t find a profitavle market for thom. HARD COAL FOR THE PATR. The grounds and buildings commitwee of the World': fair has agreed that anthracite coal only shall beused on the grounds dur- ing the exposition. The decision is very im- portant, involving as it does an immonsé ex- penditate. The machinery plant of 24,000 orse power will consume an_enormous amount of fuel, and the decision in favor of hard coal is 'made toavoid damage to fino fabric and the art exhibit, which would be sure to follow if soft coal were used. It is thought an arrangement can be effected with tho roads running to the exposition by which all the engines delivering passenger trains will either use hard coalor be fitted with smoke preventivo devices. AFTER LAWYER M'IOUGH. The iadies propose to make this town too tot to hold Lawyer McHugh, the attorney whose savage attack on Mrs. Elizabeth M- Mahon's character drove her insane. 1t nas roused their ire and the unfortunate woman's #ad_condition, as a result of the indignities which she has been subjected, has evoked heir deepest sympathy. At the regular meeting of the Central Woman's Christian Temperance union, to be theld tomorrow, Miss Helen L. Hood, secre- tary, will call ‘tho attention of the ladies to the 'pitiful fate of Mrs. McMahon and view the events that brought about he preser.t blank condition of her mind. 1t is possible the society can do nothing mora than enter a protest against such proceedings 1n a court of justice, but many of the ladios #ro active members of societies, sach as the Woman's club, the Woman's Protectivo agency, and other organizations that, adding therr influence to the protest of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union, can do much toward bringing public contempt upon, if not meeting out punishment, toward attorneys who wantonly attack dofenseless women ‘who happen to be court witnesses, THINKS IT A CANARD, Referring to the dispatch from Hamburg to tho effoct that a syndicato has been formed to construct¥pic abattoirs in Chicago in order that Germans may control the fmports of American pork in Germany, Mr, Webster of Armour & Co. says: ‘i don’t think thore is any foundation in fact for such a statement. The are certainly enough abattoirs and pig houses 1 Chicago at present to supply not only Germany, but the whole of Kurope.” WOIK ON THE FATIt BUILDINGS, ‘Work oa the fair buildings at Jackson Park is being pushed now with all possible speed. 'Tho forestry building is to bestarted at once ana added to the mauy that aro now under way. The forestry building is to be one of the architectural curi- osities of the exposition. The figures for its construction will be advertised tomorrow and the job will be started as soon a8 the contractors can begin upon it. Tho building is to be 200x530 and 1s located down near the agricultural lay out at the southern nd of tke grounds. 1t1s to be rustic in its architecture, and part of it is to be donated by the commissioners of the various states. Tho colonnade around the building 15 to bo constructed of trees representing the various states. R. M. White, World's fair commissioner from New Mexico, who has been in the city for soveral days working on the plan to have tho territories of Arizona, Okla- homa, Utah and New Mexico compine their oxhubits and have one building answer for tho united displays ot all, said this moraing: 1t now looks doubtful whether Utah will bo in our scheme. That territory expects the next legislature to give a $100,000 appropria- tion for Worid's fair purposes, and in that event it would want a building of its own."” WEAVY TIN PLATE SHIPMENT.

If you put him in the shafts again in that condition I'll give you the limit. You'il rue it and don't vou forgetit.

Serious Accident Which Befel a Coun- «il Bluffs Man. Henry Henrichs, in tho employ of the Omaha and Council Bluffs Transfer company, et with A painful and serious accident about 4 o'clock vesterday afternoon. Henrichs was standing on tho side of his wagon between the wheels in front of a storo on Eleventh streot, between Howard and Harney streets, unloading some goods. An- other transfer wagon attompted to back up to the sidewalk but the rear wheels did not turn and backoed against Henrichs. The body of the wagon caught him about tho waist aud squeezed him against his own vebicle. A doctor was called ad the patient carried to the nearest drug store. Later a carriago con- voyed the unfortunate man to his home in Council Bluffs. It is feared that Henrlchs is injured internally, but just how seriousiy could not be told at the first examination, e Constipation poisons the blood; DeWitt's Little Karly Risers cure constipation. The cause removed, the discase is gone. gt Lincoln County All Right. Nomtn Prarre, Neb., Sept. 16.—To the Editor of Tug Bre: Tho sincerily and de- termination of the republicans of this city was shown at the primarios Saturday whero “all hands ‘round joined together in the claction of delogates to the county conven- tion to bo held in this city next Saturday. Men of all shades, the pros and the antis, the ins and_the outs, joined 1n to elect repre- sentative republicans. The delegates were “instructed” that “the best men in the county, the district and the state mast carry the coiors of tio republican party this year.” The trimmers’ occupation 1s gone, The re- publicans of this county and district are con- fident, almost jubilan, over the situation. Itis, of course, difficult to forecast the nominations, but it s certain that our pres- ent district judge, Hon. A. H. Church, will receive a unanimous re-nomination. For sheriff the general sontiment seews to point to the re-nomination of D. A. Baker. Mr. Baker is conceded to bo the best sherift Liucolu county has ever had. He is popular in the country as well as in the city. For treasuror. the only name so far sug- gested is J. L. Meallister. For county clerk the convention will doubt- less put in nomnnation J. A. Stoddard of Wallace. A good man and true. There seems to be a goneral feeling that 1t 1s the part of wisdom (hat Reese should re- ceive the republican nomination for associato justice of the supreme court. I am confident that Lincoln county will instruct her dele- gates o the state convontion to cast its vote for him, Put Lincoln county in the republican_col- umn for 1891, B.

Fifty children, ranging in ago from 6 to 14 years, presented the opera of “The Four Leaved Clover” toa fair sized audience at Washington ball last evening under tho di- rection of Mrs. 5. E. Ciappo. The attend- 0 was smaller than it would have been but for an unfortunate aunouucement fixing the date as Friday night aud which, al- though afterward corrected, undoubtedly left an erroneous impression in the minds of many. The presentation was exceodingly crod- itable to the youthful participants and their painstaking, ‘conscientious teacher and di- rector. It is probable that the entertain- ment will be repeated but the date Las not yet been determined upon. The Latest Conundrum. Why is Haller's Sarsaparilla and Burdock like the most popular soap of the day. Because they both cleanso the skin and leave it both soft aud velvety. Sl by Will Be Heord Saturday. Lewis and Riley, the young men suspected of entering G. W. Wareham's house at tho corner of Seventeonth and Wirt streets last July, had a hearing 1o police court yesterday afternoon.
