M. Gowdy, C. A. Tracy and J. W. Lusk of Omaha; W. H. Bates, E. F. Dorothy, L. W. Snow, T. M. Robinson, S. 8. Whiting, J. . Butler, Walter C. Houser, R. R. Ran- dall, M. F. King, C. H. Ellis and 0. F. Spen- cer of Lincoln; F.'L. Hull, ¢. H. Breck and M. McSherry of Grand Island; John H. Mid- dlebrook of Denver. It was decided to push the work of spread- ing the organization all over the world, and to that end an organizer will be appointed at a salary suficient to enable him to devo his whole time to the good of the order. he next meeting will be the first triennial conclave, to be held in Denver in 1895, The speech which was delivered by Mr. Middle- brook as an invitation to the council to meet in his city met with decided favor on the part of the delegates, and was a falr sample of the breezy style of oratory on tap at such gatherings. The following officers were elected for the ensulng year: E. H. Haworth, 8. W. F L. W. Snow, 8. W. V. P.; Charles . W. C.; Henry Coffeen, S N Blinn, J. H. Middlebrook, S. T.; H. Breck, jr. 8.

McBride, After the business of the day was over, the traveling men sat down to a banquet served by the Pilgrim Sisters in the dining room. To say that the banquet was a model of its kind would be hardly doing it justice. The menu was excellent and appetites were good. The banquet was followed by the following sterday, Among the delegates tousts, . H. Haworth of this city acting as toastmaster: “‘Commercial Pilgrims—Vigi- lance Their Rule and Integrity Their Guide,” by M. MeSherry of Grand Island Council No. ; “Flowers—Their Relation to the Pilgrim Order,” by H. 8. Blinn of Council Bluffs council No. 1; “The Ladies, Giod Bless 'Em,"” by Charles H.

About thirty representatives of the popu- list party in Pottawattamic county met in the superior court room of the county court house yesterday afternoon for the purpose of choosing delegates to the congressional convention to be held in Atlantic on the 20th. B. P. Brown of Neola acted as chairman and Bugene Stupfel of Hardin township as secretary. The question was raised who should be considered as having a right to seats in the convention, and it was finally decided to take a vote on the endorsement of the Omaha platform. Al who voted in favor of the endorsement were considered good and faithful populists and took their seats on the west side of the hall, while a few goats who had assembled to sce what the sheep might do were left sittting loncsomely onethe other side of the aisle. The following delegates were chose Willlam Speers of Minden, A. M. Hutchi son, C. L. Gillette, L. Kinnehan and Wil- liam Phillips of Council Blufts, H, S. Alex- ander and Eugene Stupfel of Hardin, B. Ward of Keg Creek, G. W. Oakley of Boomer, Charles Watts of Crescent, N. H. Bauman of Washington and E. P. Brown of Neola. John Ahles tried to get the convention to endorse L. R. Bolter of Harrison county for congress. There was violent opposition to this plan by A. L. Hendricks, A. M. Hutchinson, B. Ward and others, and it was at last decided to let the delegates go uninstructed. L. Kinnehan was chosen chairman of the county central committee, and George E. R. T. Hunter was elected secretary to as- sist in his work. These important matters having been de- cided, Delegate Ward sprung the question of how the delegates should get to At- lantic. He thought it might be a good plan to combine business with pleasure and go Kelley fashion. He did not make it quite clear whether this meant that they were to go in wagons, on foot, or by boat, but his main idea was to make it as near a “plenic’” as possible. There was some little discussion upon the plan proposed, but most of them seemed to think that Pullman coaches were good enough for them, and Ward's picnic scheme died a-borning. Bit on a Sure Thing. “Bullhead,” seldom known as Jim Col- lier, and Jack Harris were arrested yester- day as the result of a little transaction they are accused of having been mixed up in while in Fremont county some little time ago, Neither of these gentlemen have any business cares that need very much atten- tion, so they went down into Fremont county und engincered one of the hold-up schemes known to sporting men as a foot race. Bullhead wanted to get some man with cash to back a foot racer from this city, who afterwards turned out to be Reddy Ross, and he struck a man named Clayton as A suitable man for the place. Charles Whitney was to be his opponent. Clayton put up $120 and the race was announced to take place at Bartlett. Before the time arriv howe Clayton became suspicious that everything was not as it should be, and declared the race off, so far as he was con- cerned. When he demanded his money back Bullhead and Harris gave him the merry ha ba and headed for home at a good, smart sprint. Whitney also lit out, but was overhauled by an officer at Pacific Junction from whom he managed to escape in a way best known to himself and the officer. Bull- head and Harris were arrested by Chlef Scanlan yesterday afternoon, and it s understood that a warrant is out for Ross. All four of the participants are charged with conspiracy to defraud. Last evening Clayton, the victim of the alleged conspirators, was arrested on an information charging him with threatening to klll. Clayton, it is sald, pulled a gun on the other fellows when he discovered their game and threatened to blow them full of holes unless they shelled out. He claims he was arrested on this same charge & few days ago, but after a hearing was dis- charged. When rearrested last night he at once gave bonds for his appearance. Bull- head and Harris went to Bartlett last even- ing in charge of an officer from that place. M. Willlamson & Co. have by far the largest and finest line of bleycles ever shown in Council Bluffs.

Willlams, published in yester- day’s Bee, was handed in for publication UNCIL BLUFFS, May 18, 1804.—Mr. T. W. Willlams, 420 Harrison Street, Council Bluffs: Through the kindness of Sister Mary Huntington we have a comfortable house of worship at 104 Broadway, third floor. We cordially Invite representatives of the reor- ganized church or of any denomination of Christianity or of any association that teaches bible precepts or good morals to hold services at the above named place at THE OMAHA DAILY ¢ time when not otherwise engaged. We will ask our members to attend with a prom- ise to absolve them from all allegisnce to the Church of Jesu: Christ of Latter Day Saints whenever they think thed are shown A bettter way, This, while respectfully ask- ing Mr. Willlams to withdraw his challenge, belleving It utterly foreign to the spirit that should actuate any minister of the gospel of Christ, and, though fully convinced that all true Chrictlans have sufficient to occupy their attention in a united end the tide of infidelity and the frightful in crease of crime without warring among themselves, yet, unwilling to be considered rald of the results of comparing our do trines with others, I will send two represent- atives to meet Mr. Williams, or any man or men whom he may send, at 104 Broadway, third floor, at 2 p. m., May 21, to “‘reason together' it we can, to arrange for a debate it we must.

Spencer, a Grand Tsland traveling man, who is attending the grand lodge meet- ing of the Commercial Pilgrims of America, and J. J. Jones of this city were the vic- tims of a post-midnight marauder yesterday morning. When Spencer awoke, In his room at the Ogden house, he found himself minus a pair of pantaloons, and it took some- thing of a search to finally run across them in a neighboring room, which happened to be otherwise tenantless. Out of the pocket had been taken $15 in cash, and he found a fine gold watch missing out of his vest pocket. Jones, who occupied another room on a different floor, lost only 60 cents in change and n couple of mileage books, with about 800 miles unused. During the night Proprietor Bentley heard his big dog give a bark and soon after heard the sound of bare feet trudging along the hallway at a lively gait, but thinking it was some of the guests he paid no further attention. — An investigation yesterday morning showed that each key bore the marks of nippers on the end and set at rest the question of how the thieves got in. It Is supposed that the theft was committed by some one who was in the building all evening, for no suspicious characters were seen to go up or come down after the time the robbery took place. There was an open window at one end of the hall on the sccond floor, through which a man might have climbed’ from the bluff be- hind the building. Shrank from Publieity. In the newspaper accounts that have been published, giving the score of the whist game played last Wednesday night between the Omaha and Council Bluffs clubs, two names appeared which have not heretofore been known in the galaxy of Council Bluffs whist cranke., They were Smith and Jones, and they were pounded into the earth by Mussellman and Jordan of the Omaha team, emerging from the ruin with a minority of nineteen points. The newspaper accounts further stated that Lauterwasser and Reik- man of the home team were not in the game. That statement is strictly true, for Lauter- wasser and Reikman decided to travel incog as soon as they learned what the score was, and it was they who sought to hide their blushes behind the humble names of Smith and Jones. This correction is made by The Bee in justice to the other Smiths and Joneses who may aspire to fame in whist. There was also a discrepancy between the official score and the claims of two of the Council Bluffs players which the other members of the local club wish noticed, in justice to the Omaha team. Aitchison and Black, the official score says, were defeated two points by Webber and Scannell of Omaha, instead of having a tie.

FOTHERINGHAM, WHITELAW & CO., Council Bluffs, Ta. Romance of Oue Crook, During the preliminary examination of the Wabash train thieves, the 'steenth in- stallment of which took place yesterday, some interesting facts came to light in con- nection with the history of James Harris, the member of the gang who has been fur- nishing the state with all its evidence against the others. It transpires that his name is not Harris, but what his real name is he refuses to state, on the ground that it it were known It would criminate him. Although he seems to be several years younger, he Is 49 years of age, and the last nineteen years of his life have been spent in crimes, .the scenes of which have covered the United States and a good share of Europe. His father, he says, owns consid- erable property in Louisiana, and as there is a law In that state which prevents a criminal from inheriting property, he con- siders it very much to his interest to keep his identity a secre Dun Leads Them All The people of Council Bluffs are beginning to realize what a genuine shoe sale with a $28,000.00 stock to back it is. Mr. Duncan has just recelved $2,000.00 worth of new goods, which he will put iuto the sale at almost cost price. while every- thing in the F. H. Evans stock goes at cost and less. Speaking to the reporter for The Bee, Mr Duncan says: "My stock ranges in pric from 20c, the cheapest I have in children's shoes, to $3.50 in ladies and $4.00 In men's shoes, the best that can be purchased from the manufacturers, and all goods are guar- anteed to be just as represented.” F.

The particulars have just been received in this city of a sad affair.that took place a few days ago in New York, in which the people of Council Bluffs will be interested. Harry N. Candee, a brother-in-law of Mrs. John N. Baldwin of this city, was out fish- ing with a companion, from whom he be- came separated for a short time. When his companion went back to look for him he found Candee lying on his back in about eighteen inches of water, and life was ex- tinet. The coroner of the county held an inquest, finding that death was the result of accidental drowning. One lung was con- gested, and as Mr. Candee had complained during the day it was thought he might have suffered ‘an attack of vertigo and fallen into the water. In 1861, Mr. Candee married Miss Lou Holcomb of Council Bluffs, a young lady who spent many of the early years of her life in this city and is well known to a great many people here. Mrs. Candee and two small children survive the husbandi mnd father. ) Mrs. Baldwin was in New York when the sad affair took pla Beautiful New Rugs.

The Carpet company s the only exclusive carpet house in the city, and does not sell from diminutive samplgs. ¥ rost Bitten Fruit, One of the hardest frosts that has oc- curred in the past twenty-six years at this season of the year did an immense amount of damage to the fruit in this section Friday night. Reports from all over the county in- dicate that the grapes on the lowlands are entirely destroyed, while those on the high- lands were not damaged so much. Apples and cherries do not seem to have suffered greatly. Tomato and potato vines looked, when morning came, as though they had been cooked. Reports have been received here from Crescent, Neola, Lewis and many other townships throughout the county which indicate that the damage to fruit and vegetables will be away up in the thou- sands. A. C. Graham stated yesterday morn- ing that up to Friday night the outlook for a big grape crop wag better than it had been before for twenty years, but he would be satisfied with one-third of & crop now, Garnishments Muat Stop in lowa In a short time, aé lowa has passed a law against them.

Makes an At empt to Kill Case Knif J. E. Shearer, now under arrest for shoot- ing with intent to kill Miss Aurora McClin- tock, and who after shooting her made an unsuccessful attempt to take his own life by shooting himself twice, is now confined in the county jall. He was taken there at 2:30 yesterday afternoon. At that hour or a few moments previous the city jail came very nearly being the scene of another sensation. As stated in the evening issue he claimed he did not de- sire to kill the woman, but wanted to Kill himself and would do s0 at the first oppor- tunity. At 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon his din- ner was sent to his apartment at the city jail and Turnkey Marnell was sent to the cell while Shearer was eating his meal. Shearer began eating as though he had not eaten any for days, and was on a fair way to dispose of all in sight when some- thing happened. The officer on watch was called away a moment and when he re- turned he discovered Shearer had taken the case knife and cut his right wrist in a horrible manner. A sixteenth of an inch further and the artery would have been se ered. He bled profusely, but the wound was sewed up and Shearer taken to the county jail. He was seen there last repeated his determination at the first opportunity. He himself, hoping to sever the bleed to death before help could reach him. He said he could not live and think of what he had done, and if he could die no other way he would beat his brains out against the wall. He still evinces great emotion when the woman's name is mentioned and relterates he would willingly die that she might live and be happy. He refused to say anything more about himself than las been published. In regard to the letter he sent to Miss Nicholson at Connellsville, Pa., containing a ring, he merely said she would understand it when the letter reached her. Miss McClintock, the woman whom Shearer attempted fo shoot, was yesterday removed to the Clarkson Memorial hospital. She is getting along nicely and unless blood poisoning sets in, which is not now likely, she will recov:r, She is a very attractive woman and when seen by a reporter just prior to her removal expressed herself as well pleascd that un- truths had not been printed concerning her. She described the traglc scene in room 4 at the Dellone hotel as something she will never forget and pictures graphically how she held the revolver tightly in order that self with a night and again to end his life said he cut artery and Shearer would not get it and how he wrenched it from her grasp and with the words, “I hate to do It," fired. She knew she had been shot, but did not know where and at the time she was so overcome that she did not hear the other two shots (the ones Shearer meant to Kill himself and which aroused the occupants of the hotel.) “What sort of a sensation does one feel when they come g0 nearly crossing the great divide?” the reporter asked. She smiled and said it was anything but pleasing and she was now happy the bullet had not proved fatal to either. During her conversation she did not refer to Sh:arer further than to say she trusted he would recover. QUHAUNCEY'S AT HOME IN INDIAN A, Report thut M. 8.
