W. Penwarden by namo. Wearing good clothes, 4 smooth talker ana naturally shvewd, he soon worked into fair business. He ran quite a board bill at oue of the hotels, which re- mains uupaid. The landlord attempted 1o scoure the bill by attaching a trunk, but the court decided in favor of the young attorney, who defendea himself before the county judge. Matiers worked on for some time without acy Apparent notice being taken of tho young man, Meantime he had secured the agency of & promment fire insurance company aud was writing several prominent risis. Parties began to complain in regard to the time elapsing betore the policy should be forthcoming, approved by the in- surance company, and those having vaid premiums wrote to tho home office asking why the delay. The reply came back, “*We have received no appheation for such’ risk as you wention, neither have we received the premium from ‘our local agent.” About this time he made’n small deposit in one of the banks and secured i cnock book. Numerous checks began to show up in the hands of inuocent holders, who had cashed thera “after banking hours” to accommo- date” Penny. The locality got too warm to suit his complexion, and he quietly stole away about 1wo months azo, and rumor had it be nad gone to Chili to assist in the affairs of that remote republic, A few days ago he again appeared on thestreets of this city and in wore ways thaa one offended some of tne promiuent citizens. A committoe waited upon the young man, requesting him to leave town at once.

IT WAS GRAND ARMY DAY Nebraska Veterans Handsomely Entar- tained at Cret2's Chautauqua. MANY INTERESTING THEMES DISCUSSED Nice Distinctions with Reference to the Coloniul Struggle for Independenco— Other Attractive Foatures of the Assembly Work. Crete, Neob, July 0.—|Speocial to Tie Bee. | —Today is Grand Army day at the Crete Chautauqua and the influx of the veterans aud their families from the surrounding coun- try has increased the attendance to some ox- tent,although not &s much as had been hoped. The day has been warm and at times threat- ening, but the assembly grounds serve as a refreshing retreat. The subject of the president’s address at the morning prayer was “The Lame Man Healed” and drew a fair audieuce from among those who are permanently located 1n the vicinity, Tho children’s olass and the chorus training class weat on as usual, while the adult normal class members continued their study of the life of Christ by discussing the vear of popularity. This latter class seems to have proven most interesting to its members, who show their appreciation by asking numerous questions. At 10 o'clock Dr. Duryea concluded his serios of loctures upon the history of this country. The fact that today is set aside as Grand Army day furnished an aporovriate suggestion unon which to commence his talk. In relation to the late war the words ‘‘re- bellion” and “war for the union” have come to boused as reprosenting to us o concrete thing, Rebellion can exist only when there is a constituted authority to rasist, and so the question arises, how came this national government to be formed! The speaker then wens back to the period or settlement, traced the order of coloaiza- tion and pninted out the essential differences between tho various colonial estadlishments, This led up to the revolution and the formation of tho union which fizally achieved mdenendence of Great Britaio. The tribulations of the poople which resulted in the foderal coustitution came in for aportion of the lecture. Dr. Duryea concluded by detailing the various steps by which that jastrument was_evoivea and declarod that the compromisos of the couvention of 1757, as all compromises must necessarily be, was ouly a_postponement of tho issue of State sovereigaty which was conclusively determined on tho battle tields of tha lato rebeilio Cougressman W. J. Bryan was advertised 10 deliver an addrass but failed to show up. his excuse being, as announced, that the con- tinued sossion of congrass demanded his prosence in Wasnington. In his place, Prof. Curtiss gave an informal talk to those inter- ested in the education of young men for the ministry. The aftornoon exercises wero proceded by soveral musical numbers, of which a cornet 0l by Mr. Jelinek was well appiauded. Rev. A. R. Thain gave the Grana Army oration upon the subject *Days in Dixie,”” He said he intendea to'celobrate the heroic deeds of all those beiow a major in rank aud paid a bigh trivute to the character, intellectual, moral and educational, of the men who formed the rank and file of tho union armies during the late war. The interpolation of many amusing anecdotes was & pleasant teature of the oration, which all through re- tained the attention of the auditors. Late Atternoon Hours. The later afternoon hours were devoted to rezular classes, tho bible students’ class, the chorus training class and _the primary teachers’ class. During the Sunday school hour the attention of the audience was taken by Rev. D. Eritt, who talked on teachers’ meetings and normal classes in_tho Congre- gational headguarters. The Round Taole under Mr. W. . Haray discussea the sub- ject of favorite books, the students giving their opinions of the Chautaugua publica- tious and teliing from what literature they have profited the most. The best way of reading newspapers was also a point for e ucidation. In the evening, a lecture by Rev. C. C. Lasby upou the passivn play of Ober Omi- mergun illustrated by original stereopticon views, formed the day’'s final ottraction. Sunuay is 1o be set aside exclusively to devo- tional exercises. Tne dining hall this year is being run upon anew plan. In previous sessions the privi- loze was given over to some outside lady. The last experiment in this direction re- sulted in a balance on the books of only a few cents, aud so to preveat a similar out- come this time the ladies of the Crete Con- gregational church have taken it upon them- selves to conduct the dining hall economic- ally and wisely in order to swell tho treas- urer’s receipts. In this they are succeeding fl‘nel_v, as well as from a culinary poiot of view. Dr. Scott announced Thursday eveniug that the various classes of this year's Chau- tauqus assembly were much fuller in mem- bership than ever betore, although tho at- tendance of outsiaers for the more popular foatures of the program was not quite up to the standard of former wmes. This seems to be, in a nutshell, a statement of the condition aud prospects of the present meeting. From an eaucational standpoint 1t promises to be successful in every respect and to enrich those who atiend systematcally to tne exercises offered by a con- siderable adaition to their present stock of knowledge. If the Chautauqua movement means anything at all, it is svstematic self-effort at educational progress, assisted by guidance of others in mapping out and assigning the work. The annual summer meetings were expected to serve at the same time as a diversion and a reviow of the work already done, and this parpose seems to be what the (rete Chau- tauqua is approximating. Tho pleasaut woather continued Friday, and found a fair sudience up and about before the morning prayer. President Scott spoke briefly upon the “First Christian Chureb,” after which came the regular classes for children and for chorus training. The younger people were also regaled at 10 o'clock with a chalk talk o the Congrega- tional neadquarters, Tbhe adult normal class mombers, who are following out the life of Christ, busied themselves Friasy worniug with the vear of obscurity, Dr. Duryea's course i Amorican history 1s by all means the best and most encouraging feature of the assemoly. Aud it1sa good omen to see bis sudience well fillea by both youngunaold. In the morning be ook up the period of exploration and impressed it on his hoarcrs that all the great navigators were moved almost solely by a longing to find a passage to the Indies, from which they had been snut off since tha fall of Constantinople 1453 He also explained the position and part played by Spain and attempted to show why it was that Spain had lost its indus- trial foundation and had thus become unable to hoid any cousiderable portion of the contiuent which had been opened up tocivili- zation under her auspices. The gold fever of the Spaniards afforded an opportunity for Dr. Diryea to assert that he could see no way by whicn piling uo silver doilars in the treasury at Washington would help tha Ne- braska farmer, The vocuiion has arrived and was used for the first time in Friday evening's concert, It is 4 handsome instrument, in the sivie of a miniature pipe organ, but loses some of its | effect by reason of tho imperfect acoustic ar- rangements of the auditorium. This vocal- ion has veen supplied by the courtesy of a Chicago musical goods firm, whoso kindness in so doing Dr. Scott loses no opportunity to ackuowledge in bis daily remarks by glow- iug free advertisements, Christianity and Socialism, Tho address of the morning was by Rev, | Atvert Bushuell upon “Christianity aod Socialism.” He treats socialism as nocessar- ily hostile to Christianity and as sming to correct the saine ev: Ly approacting the provlem from opposite sides. Socialism seeks to obliterate personality, upon which the church is built. The trué remedy ior soclalism, then, is the spread of true Chisti- auity and the exteusion of the chureh's activities among the poor, One hour of the afternoon was devoted to 8 lectuze by Dr. A. K. Thaw of Omaba uron the subject, “Hooks and Reading." This was 8 plea for well selected, well digested | Peadiog, for readivg with a distinct purpose DAILY BEE and for a dismissal from service of the sellow-back novel and lgatest novels, The hours from 2 1o & ,wero taken up by Prof. Curtiss 1a a coutitfuition of his course for bible students, in Wwhidh he makes use of mo Jern interpratation and, methods ta sup- port many of the orthogdox views of biblieal subjects,” The class for primary teachers foilowed this, as siso the Sanday school hour, whore Mr. R E. Lrane wiscussed the work of the superintendout. The Round Table was devoted toddy t5 the subjoct of orison work, & topic which was elucidated by several ‘members convected with the work among the couvicts at the state peni- tentiary. The exercises elésed in the oven- ing with a lecture by Rew; C. C. Lasuy, de- scriptive of a voyage from New York to Egypt, illustrated by vumerous stersopticon views. ) Mr. and Mrs. DeLong of. Omaba are here attending the assembly. Fremont's As Fritost, Nob., July 9.—|Special to Tne Bre.] -Mr. Leon H. Vincent's lecture at 3 p. m. vesterday was upon “Thomas Carlyle.” It was a clear, forcible and weli-pleasing ad- dress. At 4 p. m. Mrs. G. W. Clark of Omaha spoke upon “Social Purity.”’ Mrs. Clark spoke in earnest, stirring words upon the duty of parents to talk freely with their childros, ana of all to speak a chaering word and lend a helping hand to the fallen. The Chautauqua Literary and Scientific clrcle round tableat 5 p. m. wasan intaresting one. The subject was “Methods of Work," and brought out many helpful thoughts for those who find it hard to find time for read- ing the required amount each year. The choral union at 1:3) and 7 b. m. is doing good work under Prof. Torrens, and is preparing for a grand concert on Monday evening. The lecture last ovening by Johd DoWitt Miller was an 1ntolleclual treat, and the audience was kopt in continual marriment to the close. Mr. Millar 1s one of the most witty, interesting and pleasing speakers in the country. His subject was “‘Wnat Shall We Do with the Stranger at Our Gates!’ and the lecturer outlined the solution to tho vexiug quastion of foreizn immigration. His subject for tonight is ““Love, Courtship and Marriage.”” Mr. Miller will also preach at 11 a. m. Sunday. Rev. H. A. Eliott. Ph. D, of Columbus, ono of the workers for Loug Pine Chautau- qua, 1s present, and will preach tomorrow ovening. Among other workers just arrived is Mrs. E. A. Blair of Croighton, assistant national superintendent of the Loyal Legions, who will speak on Wednesday of next week. Mrs. Blaic was much pleased with the im- provement of the grounds, and expressed her belief that soon the Fremont assembly erounds would rival most of the olaer as- semblies, This forenoon the Fremont Nor- mal school visited the grounds in_a boay. Nearly 600 students, hieaded by the Framont Normal band, marohed upon the grounds, and after having their pioture taken by Mr. Steadmaa, the assembly photographer, they were soon at homo in the classes and lectures or in the boats and plunge-bath. ‘The teachers institute work is one of the important features of the assomt Hero 140 teachers are envolled, and the work is in charge of Prof. D.

There has veen a change in the program, and Monday will be childron’s day, and tem- porance day will ocepr on Wednesday in- stead of the order published. More people are coming: every day, and each session 1s more interesting than the former and better attended. — Hamling's Great Luck. F. M. Hamling, if life is worth anything to him, has reason to congratulata himself that he is alive. Mr. Hamling 1s emploved at the Dime savings bank and lives at 2724 Miami. He was coming downtown yesterday on a Hanscom park car and fumped off at Six- tesnth. Another man jumped on at the sams n- stant, knocking Hamling down and rolling bun uuder the wheels. A shudder ran through the car and the passengers held their breath until Mr. Hamling came up, not ox- actly smiling but alive and comparatively un- wjured. His pantaloons had gone the way of all such garments aud he looked as if the street sweeper had been rolling him, but no bones were broken aad he was only shghtly scratched. — - He is an Old Ofender. Cuicago, Ill. , July 9.—M. Auzat, arrested here charged with swindling the Parisian millionaire, De Escowbrera, was granted a continuance without pail today. The French consul says the accused has a long record of crime and has been imprisoned eleven times. ‘The consul adds: ‘“‘Auzat ig the Frenchman calling himself an American oitizen who was arrested in Tangiers last year for swindling. He then gave the name of Adams and es- caped through the intervention of the Amer- 1can consul.” e —— THREE ON BIDWELL. Chbicago Tribune: Governor Bidwell isa great improvement over St. John. St. John would never Lave destroyed £250,000 worth of vineyards. He would have sold them and pocketed the money, every time, Pailadelohia Record: The discovery that Candidate Bidwell js a Califoraia grape grower will be nuts for the anti-prohibition- 1sts, who will argue that the convention was guilty of a straddle, or at least & squint This does not follow, of course, since there is A3 much distinction between grapes and wine as there is botweea corn or rye aud whisky. Nevertheless, a higher respect for practical politics would have spared the cow- veotion from all risk of getting 8 siip-down on a grape skin. New York Advertiser: General Bidwell, the prohipition candidate for presideni, bas 500 acres of bis California Rancho Chico rfllul?d in grapes, the annual yield of which s about 1,000,000 pounds. ‘The general for- merly converted all his grapes {uto wine ana brandy; but that was when he was sowin, his wild oats, as it were. 1t was his secon wife who taught nim the error of his ways, and now the enure product of nis vineyard is classed as ‘‘table grapes,” and as such are placed upon the market. Suil, grapes by any other name would wale but little difference iu the morning. — BLASTS FROM KAM'S HORY, Inexperience is the mother of self-conceit.

REEVES' SALE SET ASIDE End of a Case That Has Clouded M Titles—Mrs, Carter Wins Her Case Against the Paxton—Ex-Coun- cilman Madsen Sentenced, ny Again the property owners and homs builders are on ton. Again they have won & victory and the banner of the Heltensteins has been torn down and trampled 1u the dust. From the judicial bench Judge Hopewell of the equity division of the district court has announced that tne Heifensteins cannot Tob the people who are the owners of lots in the £. V. Smith’s, Foster's, Paulsen’s Idle- wild and other additious in the north part of the city, which now are a part of tho original pre-emption entry made by Robert Shields, There is a large amount of happiness in that partof the city, but none of the bhome owners are happier than Wharton & Baird and A. C. Troup, the attoraeys who won the victory. History of tho Land. The history of the case is a long ono and dates back more than a auarter of a century. In Robert Shields pro-emptea tne land question and in" 1N re- putent from the government. the grocery business and wholesula wrocers of St. Louis. Timos were hard and utlast he becamo involved. He owed the St. Louis firm 8150, They sccured judgment in the justice court and lovied on the land. In 1855 the lana was sold and bid in by John P, Helfenstein, the senior member of the tirm, but for some reason the sheriff, J. Cameron Reeves, failed to exocute a deed. nields coutinuod to occupy the land, but a year ot two later Thomas L. Sutton, then sheriff, exccuted the deed and the sale of 1858 was contirmod. During the time that intervened Shialds sold to other parties, io each case giving a warrauty deed. Tho property was platted 1nto additions and much of it uighly improved. The residents and owners of the lots prospered and grew rich and not a cloud crossed tueir skies until n coived his Shields was in dealt with Helfenstein & Gore, a few years ago, wbea John P. Helfenstein sopeared upon the scene aud At once brought suit in the United Sta‘es court to quict the titlo 1o the tract aud to oust all of the purchasers under Snieids’ titlo. In its regular order tho case was reached for trial. The jury had been empanneled and the case was being stated by tho attorneys woen a telegraphic message was received announcing that Helfenstein had died. Tnat brought the case to & suaden termination, as far as the United States court was concernad. Caso Passed Upon, But thero was moro to follow. Androw Rosowater had bought two lots in k. Smith’s addition, lots that had their original titie in_Shields. Two years ago he found James H. Curry in possession under the terms of a lease which he had secured from Camp bell. Mr. Rosewater visited Curry aud de- manded the payment of the reat. Curry re fused, and suit 1 ejectment was brought. The case was tried in justice court, and forty minutes before the hour of hearing Curry showed up with a quit claim deed from John P. Helfenstein, The deed, bearing the evidence of fraud upon its face, fuiled to impress the justice to any extent and the case was decided in favor of Mr. Rosewater. An appeal was at once taken and thedecision of Judge Hopewell is the firal outcome. In passing upon the case tno court_ stated that tho sherif’s deod executod to Helfen- stein by Thomas L. Sutton coutd not be con- siderod in evidenco. Tho sale by J. Camoron Reoves, who was tho sheriff in 1353, must be set aside as an invalid conveyance. T'his fact is what makes Lie otuer property owners happy, as it cuts Helfenstein out of bringing suit to eject them from their homes. Tt also sottles the fact tbat the pirties who ciaim under the Stields transfer have a good title. While only two lots wero involved in the Curry-Rosewater case the docision quiets the titlo to more than £4,000,000 worth of prop- erty. In all vrovidence a number these suits a remarkable bas dealt haeshly with of tho plaintiffs Helfen- stein has passed to that land beyond the skies. Oue of his heirs, a plaintiff aud & party to the suit, has al<o joined him. Curry died shortly after he brought his suit and not loug ugo Mrs. Curry followed her Lus- band. Then the heirs took up the prosecu- tion of the case. A few months ago oue of them died. A Veraict Against the Paxton, . Della Carter, the wife and administratrix of the late Captain Carter of the fire de- partment, who was caugnt aud killed beneath the falling walls of the Paxton hotel anpex. has won her suit in the district court against J. B. Kitchen, the owuer of the hotel, and the jury has awarded her $5.000 damages. When the fire was in progress. Captain Carter was working on the west wall of the aunex. He was standiog on a ladder. Without & moment’s warning the wall swayed and fell out, crushing him beneath tons of brick and aebris. Suit for £,000 damnages was broughit Ly the widow. She set up the clmm that the wall was in dangerous coudition and_not coustructed in accordance with the building ordinances of the city. The defendart attempted to justify by entering a general denial. Damuges for a Crushed In the case of Etvena Smart agaipst Cuarles R. Lee, on trial in Judge Keysor's court, the jury returned a verdict fixing the plaintifi’s damage at 81,225, Swmart was ariving one of Lee's wagons. While on the Omaha and Council Bluffs bridge his team, unable to hold the load, ran off the approact. Smart got out of the wreck with a badly crushed foot aund at once brought suit to recover 10,000, alleging that the horses were not capable of handling tha load and that the wagon was defoctive, Councilman Madsen’s Sentence, Ex Councilmsn B.

But the aistrict was already bonded to the full legal limits, 80 the directors simply | issued school distriet’ orders amounting to $,000, and sold them to the Clark-Leonard | Tuvesiment company of Lincoln, The tax- payers held a meeting and repudiated the orders and secured a permanent injunction prohiviting the county treasurer from paying these orders.
