Donner of Dew Molnes Told His Story and Resigned, DES MOINES, Aug. 24.--(Special Tele- gram.)—When the trustees of the Wesley Meothodist Eplscopal church met yesterday afternoon to hear the story by which their pastor, W. W, Donner, might exonerate him self they were a sadly disappolnted set, for when moment came Donner admitted his guilt. He did not go into detalls as to the charges preferred, but sald simply that he had sinned and would resign his pastorate and resign from the church. The charges were preferred by a young lady member of his flock, that he had made impro- per advances toward her, but nothing of a criminal nature occurred. | Work of « 1 NEOLA, Ia, Aug. 2i.—(Special)—Last night Mrs. B.

With the departure of the Omaha Guards on Mon- day the great source of inspiration was with- drawn, and most of the campers prepared to break camp and go home. Several farewell parties wera given. Misses Moore and Hutch- inson prepared a farewell lunch for their riends on Monday night end entertained m very pleasantly. Maud and May Bryant did the same Wednesday evening. The chief event of the week, however, was the benefit given Colonel ~Reed by the campers on _ Tuesday evening. The program was filled entirely by home talent, each of the persons taking part being spurred to their best by the belief that the Omaha campers were going to do_the same thing and strive to outdo them. The rivalry gave a healthy vim and spice to all parts of the entertalnment. It was a big success socially, as well as financially. The only thing to be regretted was the fact that Colonel Reed was obliged to leave the pavil- fon serlously ill before the program had been fairly started. It was a very graceful com- pliment gracefully rendered, and was most heartily appreciated by the gallant colonel, who has striven hard and successfully to make the season a pleasant one for all who have spent much time at Manawa.

George C. Pullman, who met with a bi- eycle accident the other evening, say: it was not the result of road hogism. The occu- pants of the buggy saw the light on his wheel and turned half way out of the road, but he could not see them. The chief regret he feels is that they did not give warning when they saw his lamp so close and di- rectly in front of them. He might then have been saved a painful injury and a broken wheel. The question of whether the paving that was washed out during the late rain storms will be repaired by replac'ng the old bloc is receiving the serious consideration of the streets and alleys cemmittea in the council and the engineer's force. The question does not apply to Harrison street to any great extent, for about 60 per cent of the displaced blocks' were carried down the creek. Brick will be used for the repairs on that street but on other streets, where the blocks were not carried a , the question is an issue. The old rotten blocks, however, in no place will be returned with the consent of the property owners, Mme. Helen Merrill, whose goods were at- tached for rent, writes from Corley, Ia., that she is visiting there and that she did not move her goods out of the Merriam block in the night, but at 6:30 in the morn- ing, when the night was far spent. She also thinks The /Bee did her an injustice in stat- ing that she had been conducting a mani- curing establishment, when the fact was that she had been doing hair dressing alse. Sho denies, too, that she ever promised to sell her dtamonds to raise the $80 due for rent, but admits that the debt is a just one, and ‘promises to pay it as soon as a revival of business strikes her. One of the Omaha motor trains suffered a slight accident last evening that created a good deal of flurry among the passengers and slightly injured two of them. When the train was leaving the bridge and on the curve turning into Avenue A, the trailer left the track and crashed into the fence, which comes close to the track at that point. One of the top rails of the fence struck the end of the car, penetrated the dashboard and reached th: length of several | seats before the car was stopped. On one of the front seats was R. F. Fryer, a well known printer of this city, now foreman of the Omaha Printing company. The end of the scantling grazed his hip and bruised him considerably. 1t was an open car, well loaded with passengers, many of them women and children. They were all shaken up and frightened but none others injured. Fryer was taken to his home, 300 Harrison street, and Dr. Thomas sent to attend to him by order of Manager Dimmock. An exanfina- tion showed that his injuries were not at all serious. The {rain was running at the usual speed and the cause of the accident was not determined. A breathless man, flushed and excited, run- ning up to a hack and anxiously inquiring the quickest possible time the driver could g0 from a certain street number to the Rock Island depot, gave rige to the suspicion that something interesting was about to happen yesterday afternoon. And when the hack took aboird a woman and a baby and a big trunk and the nervous individual first men- tioned, with a second admonition to drive like smoke, the impression was materially strengthened. It amounted to a conviction thirty minutes later, when another man ap- eared at the house and learned that it was Ris wite and baby who had disappeared with | Al wool checks, the nervous man.

General Hardin and all of the other candidates on the democratic ticket were present at the conference. Gen- eral Hardin made a speech full of vigor. He did not recede one fota from the position he had taken on the financial question. He con- tended he was standing on the platform. Hardin said in his speech to the committee that he would submit to a caucus of the party, but he would not yield to dictation. He asserted his ability to construe the plat- form, and said he abides by his utterances which have been published, and had nothing to_retract. When he closed there was warm applause from the free silver men present. All of the candidates with the exception of Mr. Tyler, candidate for lieutenant governor, agreed to stand by Mr. Hardin in his con- struction of the platform. Mr. Tyler an- nounced his purpose of continuing to speak for sound money, no matter what the ut- terances of the head of the ticket might be on the currency question. A commitiee of five, consisting of three silver men and two gold men, was appointed to draft an ad- dress to the democratic voters of the stat The voters will be .called upon to support General Hardin, as well as the remainder of the ticket. The address will also urge demo- crats to drop the currepcy issue. It was after 6 o'clock when the meeting adjourned. e LACK THREE Another Bateh of Veniremen Will Have to Be Summone SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 24.—The trial of Theodore Durrant for the murder of Blanche Lamont will be reswwed on Monday. As it is fmpossible that three jurors ean be secured from the remaining 200 venirémen It is prac- tieally certain that a special venire will have to be drawn. When Durrant's preliminary examination for the Lamont murder was be- ing held, Rev. J. Gibson, pastor of Emanuel church, was asked by Durrant's counsel if he had ever been pastor on Rominy street, London. He said he had not. After his graduation at Edinburgh he sald he had charge of a church in an outlying district, but he did not remember the street. The purpose of the defense in trying to connect the pastor with the Rominy street church is now apparent. The defendant’s counsel say that Rev. Jesse Gibson while pastor of the Rominy street church became involved in a scandal through attempting familiarities with the women in his congregation. He was compelled to leave England and came to America, The defendant’s counsel insist that the two Gibsons are one and the same. Robert Lynch, Mr. Gibson's private secretary, sald that Jesse and George Gibson were fel- low students at Spurgeon's college, London, and they formerly preached at Rominy chapel. Lynch declares that Jesse had always borne a good reputation B BROUGHT OFF THE BULL FIGHT. nts Arrested and Fined for Cruelty to Animals. CRIPPLE CREEK, Colo,, Aug. first day of la Fiesta de Crippl> passed, a euccess in every detall. The pro- gram was carried out, and the bull fight was as advertised—a fight to a finish in the true Mexican style. The battle between the man and beast was only ended when a well aimed stab at the top of the neck and between the ears of the bull reached the spinal cord. Then the bull fell and with a groan expired. A second bull was introduced immediately and the fight was fairly under way when Sherift Bowers and his deputies arrived gnd placed Joseph Wolfe, the chief promoter of the whole affair under arrest, with all the participants in the fight, and ‘the fight was stopped. The charge is cruelty to animals. The parties arrested promptly paid the fine imposed and the szme difficulty will be en- countered in the course of tomorrow’s sport but it is the general impression that the ofi- cers have been bluffed out and that the fight will go on Adjutant General Moses, who was present, has just arrived and says the power of the militia is to be summoned to stop the bull fight, but it is not thought the state authorl- ties will be on hand to interfere with the program. ra v His ver party Going Out of Bu Monday morning we place on sale over 10,- 000 yards of bea 'ul embroideries, Our en- tire stcek that was 15c, 20c, 25¢, 80 and 35c all at one price, 10c yard.

The Indians apparently regard resistance as hope- less, and are one by one abandoning their set- tlements and going southward. People here are already organizing exploring expeditions and especlally for investigating land near Espirtu Santo and Ascension bays. There is much dye wood and other precigus woods in that region which has hitherto been cut by Indian traders who had fllegally established tim- | ber camps on Mexican soil. A thousand negroes from Jamaica have arrived at Belize to serve as police and soldiers. It is probable these negroes will be armed with rifles drilled and marched against the Caribs, who have lately been raiding British plantations on the Hondurean frontier and between whom and the settlers and the negro laborers a regular war is going on. The Indians on various southern settlements refuse to re- ceive federal census takers, declaring they are Independent of Mexico and acknowledg- ing no masters other than themselves.

Discharged August 23. Received effects.” The docket of the district court will soon bear the same name attached as plaintiff to a suit for $10,000, in which the city is to be defendant. Daly took the preliminary steps in South Omaha on Friday and the city has received notification of his intention. The basis of his suit s false ar- rest and imprisonment. In his complaint Daly alleges that he was waiting at the Northwestern depot to take a traln to Red Cloud, Neb., when he was arrested and imprisoned on the charge of being a suspicious character and kept in jail until’ discharged by Judge McGee the next morning, and that the officers refused to make the inquiry into his antecedents he desired, refusing to telephone to people in South Omaha whose names he gave and who would know that he was all right. The police report on the matter is somewhat different. The arrest was made by Detectives Wier and Murphy. Daly had been hanging around the depot for some time, fellowshipping with a gang of bootblacks and newsboys. His con- duct and appearances excited suspicion, and when questioned by the officers he said he was waiting to take a train to Little Sioux. In his possession were a lot of bieyele repairs, kes, cores, etc., all new. When questioned about where he got them he said he was a bicycle repairer and was golng to Little Sioux to get his wheel, which he had left there, and fix it up.
