The residents of Manawa and the vicinity have been put to considerable annoyaunce fre- quently in the past by lawless individual who persistod in catching fish in thoe lake with nets, in spite of tho arvests and convie- tions that took place a number of times for the offenco. Night before last a gang of men under tho leadorship of Arthur Rofe made a raid on a party of men thut w seining in the lake and caught one of the members. The others all managed toescape in the dark- ness. They left their sewne and four wagon loads of fist in thewr hurry to get away, and these were coufiscated by the captors. An investigation showed that the mon had gono into the enterprise with the intention of got- ting all the fish there were in the lake, for the seine with which thev had been working was found to be eight foet wide and 1,200 feet long. The “White Caps,” as they termed themselves, cut the net'into forty-eight piecos, and it will probably not be used for that purpose agamn.

A sult was commenced last evening in Justico Swearingen’s court, which promises to involve a number of Council Bluffs men in a criminel suit. Stephen A. who lives 1 Omaha, 1s the defendent, and Lo is charged with to dofraud Captain W. A, Hares of this out of property valued at $,000. Acc to Hayos' story, Mulbolisnd came to him several months ago and represented himself us tho owner of some property in_Kentucky. which he bad paid £25 per acre for, and ho wanted to sell or trade it for property in this state, After nga bargain was and Hages agreed to take KKen- tucky property o land’s hands, iving himin excbang Towa land The papers were drawn up and recorded, and Hayos was tickling himself to think what a good ba in he had made, when a change came over tho spirit of his dream. He happened to mention the matter Beecroft the other day, and was sur sed to learn that Beecroft had enterd into a bargain of the same kind, and had terwards found that he had unloaded a lot of good property for some land that had no cx- istence, save in the imagination of the man Who took tim in, Fayes decided to look the matter up, and was borritied to firtl that he had been victimized in the same manner. flo claims to have tie evidence of the oficials of the Kentucky county where the land was supposed to te located thay there is no land answering to that description in that vicin ity. A part of tne purchase price of thc land was paid by Mulholland in notes secured by mortgages on the same property, and the notes are consequently not worth the paper they wero written on. He accordingly had Mulbolland urrested. The other purties connected with the case and who are charged with conspiracy along with Mulholland are three well known real esiate men of this city, one of whom endorsed the notes, another drew up the papers, while the third negotiated the deal. Hayes says that after he has finished Mulbolland’s case bie will take the other three in their regular order, and will bave them arrestea on A like charge, conspiracy city rding some di t some Furnis Men about town are coming to realize more fully that the place to buy their neckwent, collurs und cuffs, socks, flan- nel and white shirts and all such things is hero, and the way to buy them is the way we sell them—close “down to the lowost water ma Boston Store, Coun- il Blufts, T COUNCIL Great Deal of Routine Business Set- by the ) 1hers.

Mitehell Viaceut presented a bill for $1,800, which o claimed was due him_as balance on work done in widening the bed of Indian creck in 1884, On_motion the bill was al- lowea, together with $600 interest due. A sidewalk resolution was adopted provid ing for the laying of sidewalks on Pierco street as far oast as Ouk street, wherover sidewalks have not yet been laid. An ordinance was introduced prohibiting anyone not employed by the company from getting on or off motor trains while in motion, and providing a penalty of not less than $ not more than §25 for fractures of tho rule. It was laid over until next meeting. Johu W.

Eight different ordinances were 1 the field, and in the confusion that resulted from their introduc- tion the ordinance came vear veing passed granting the company the right of way on Wasnington avenue along with the other streets, but the fact was discovered by the residents of Washington avenue who were present and a halt was called. The ordi- nance was finally laid over until the next meeting. Alderman Groves stated that the chief of the fire department had a regular timo for visiting cach houso, aud that he under- stood there was considerablo whiskey brought into active use ufter the chief had made his visit and gone away. A motiou was made Lo instruct the chief as to when ho should make his visits, but most of the aldermen thought it better to trust to the good sense of the fire ehiof to catch and confiseato the whisky, and tho motion was lost.

A haveas corpus case has been commenced in the superior court which presents a novel question, as %o whether a lien can be ac- quired on anable-bodied boy. The plaintiff in the case is Mrs. Fannio Browster, a vesi- dout of Grand Island. She claims to be the mother of the boy, and a number of yeurs ago she gave him to another woman named Dickinson for safo keeping. Mrs, Dickinson in turn gave him to Mrs. J. D. Nicholson, who lives at 423 Damon stréet, in this city, A short time ago Mrs. Browster decided to take her boy home with her again, and sho stated her wish to Mrs. Nicholson. Tho lat- ter tady refused to give him up, saying that she bad a large and_conscantly growing bill against Mrs. Browster for the boy's bourd and storage and she did aot inteud to give him up until the bill was paid. Mrs. Brewster accordingly commenced i _habeas corpus suit in the superior court to get possession of ths boy, who sho claims is not subject to the samo laws as a trank would be that belouged to a nonpaying tenant, stroet, Hart, Brondway. Call We te: tt Divorce Case. The aivorce case of Florence M. Westcott against Robert B. Westcott, which was tried before Judge Smith Wednesday, was ended yesterday by the granting of a divorca as prayed by the plaintiff. The defendant had agreed several mouths ago with the plaintiff that he would nov make auy appearance, and the case was accordiugly beard without him. As 5000 a8 he heard that the decree had boen granted he rushed across from Omaha, where Lo has been for several weoks past,und be eo- terea a violent protest against the way in which tho decree was prooured, He claims that his ex-wife took advantage of his ab- senco and fixed up a aecree which did not tally with their agreemeut. He has retained the services of an attorney and will have the case reopened if he can, 80 it looks very much as though the public has not yet heard the last of the Westeott divorce suit. Campfire and Fair. The campfire and fair under the auspices of the Grand Army and the Woman's Kelief Corps opened last evening in the Mesonic Tewple. The room had been nicely decor- ated for the occasion, aud the articles which Mulholland, | THE O had been donated to the fair were arranved around the room to be examined by the prospective buyers, In booths were ar. ranced various articles made by the Iadies and sold by them for the benefit of the relief fund. The early part of the evening was oc- cupied by a fine programme, including an ad- dress of welcome by C. M. Harl, and speeches by General Josiab Given and Aunt Beocky Young of Des Moines. The pro grammo was interspersed with music by Mrs M. J. O'Neill, I. M. Treynor, and Dalbey’s orchestra, A large crowd was preseat, and the exercises were highly enjoyed.

Mr. Lincoln, in" his ef- forts to relieve the care and strain of official business, which bore more heav- ily upon him than upon any other presi- dent, was in the habit of diverting his mind and seeking relaxation in various ways, He was a frequent attendant at humorous lectures, at the minstrel shows, the circus and the theater; but it would be us consistent to cluim he was a lecturer, a negro minstrel, circus rider or actor 18 to claim he wasu spiritualist because he was present to witness the materializations and machinations of mediums, which he may have regarded as curious and which may have served him as a relaxation, The story was started by Mrs. Colburn Maynard, & medium, who avers not only that Le was in the habit of visiting me diums, but (hat he had spiritualistic geances at the white house, consulted mediums as to affairs of state, issued the emancipation proclamation through the advice of mediums, and went to the front to ascertain the condition of the troops after being advised by a medium to do s0. Major Bundy, who is a very con servative ~spiritualist, and the open enemy of spiritualistic charlatanry of all kinds, has given his testimony in cautious manner. He 3 “"Phere ean be no question but that Mr. Lincoln sat in seances, nnd repeatedly had mediuns at the white house. 1 knowpositively that through his investi- gations he became convinced of the con- tinuity of life and of communication be: tween the two worlds, He was an un- usually cautious, diserect man, and while quite probuble that he veceived advice from the spirit world, it is also certain thay he never blindly followed it. It would have to conform to his own better judgment betore being adopted. It is a has been stated, that Lincoln eances during the winter of 1864 65 with Charles Colchester and Charles Foster, the welt known mediums, and T also am able to say confidently that h held seances with Mrs, Nettio Colburn Major Bundy adds that Mrs. Lincoln vas a confirmed spiritualist and that after the death of her husband she spenf many weeks with mediums, It is e to boliove this, as it is well known that during the latter part of her life Mrs. Lincoln was not only eccentric but in a condition of mind bordering upon insanity. But this has no bearing upon the lifé of the president, who was a practical sible, hard-headed man, particularly in everything having any connection with religious belief or with human conditions after death. Mr. John Nicolay, his private secrotary. who L th him day and night in the white house, and who certainly is in a position to know whereof he speaks, hus ex- ploded the spiritualists” sensation by a flat denial of the claim. He declarves without equivocation that Mr. Lin- coln was not a spiritualist and had no leaning in that direction. H has never heard before of seances at the white house and he af- firms they could not haveoccurred wit out his knowledge. Mr, Nicolay say “Of course, I have no doubt that Mr. Lincoln, like a great many other men, might have had some curlosity as to spivitualism, and he might have at- tenced some of thosoe seances solely out of curiosity, Buthe was the last man in the world to yield to any other judg- ment than thut arrived at” by his” own mature deliberation. He was not suver- stitious, nor did he have any spiritual- istic tendencies. [ have attended spiritualistic seances, not because I be: lieve in them, but because I was curious to seo the proceedings. They were such manifest humbugs that T usually eame away disgusted. If President Lincoln cver attended seances, as alleged, it was with this same feeling of curiosity. But [ do not remember vhat even curiosity ever impelled him to attend a seance. He had more important business on hand duriog those days. In any event [ cun say without the'slighest qualifica- tion that a seanco never occurred in the white house.” This should be residents of Spirituatise spiritunlists ns sufficient to set this silly story at vest. As M soluy suys and as everyone believes who knew Mr. Lincoln and the motives which prompt- ed him, it was his judgment in all cases which directed affurs and not the clap- trap of mediume,and to this extent Major Bundy himsolf has borne correct testi- mony. It is of little or no consequence what Mrs. Lincoln may have thought of spiritualism. Mr. Lincoln did his own thinking and no man of his time was clearer from superstition, It is a little singular in any eveut it Mr, Lincoln’s emuncipation proclamation wore the out- come of mediumistic suggestion that the spiritualists should have waited twenty- nine years bofore muking their claim, If it were an authentic one they would not have waited u ar to secure for themselves the prestige of such a world- wide famous event. ad Was Level.
