1 e THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: TUESDAY, JULY £9, 1902 SHONFELD'S ALARM CROWS Aged Omshan Appeals to Press te Expose Danghter's Husband, BOSTON BANKER SENDS A WARNING Writes that Philip D. Watkins Worse Heeord Than Police Re- ported and that Mand's Danger In Great. To add to the distress, already acute, of Henry Shonfeld and family of 2212 Wirt street, there has just been recelved by them a letter from a Boston banker, who writes: “For God's sake, and as you love her, recover your daughter from that man, Phillp D. Watkins. 1 know something of his record and you camnot act too soon.” With his letter he enclosed a clipping from a Boston paper which told of the sudden marriage of Miss Maude Shonfeld to Wat- kins. It will be remembered that about a week ago the Omaba papers told the story, which 18 in substance that Mies Shonfeld, while on her way to visit her aister, Mrs. A. L. Bell, in Ogden, Utah, met on the train the man named Watkins, a blonde, of fine figure and In a way attractive. So skillful was his pleading that when Ogden was Teached, the girl, educated, but not in the wiles of the world, consented to an fmme- diate marriage and the ceremony was per- formed and the couple on board ‘the train again before Miss Shonfeld's sister in Og- den knew what was brewing. Then she re- celved a letter from Maude, describing the escapade, announcing that they were on their way to California and stating that her husband was recéiving an income of $250 per month, was dealing in fruit for exportation and was wealthy. She wrote 0 her people in Omaha, too, and they, sus- pecting Watking was a crook, consulted twith Chief Donahue and discovered that he 1s wanted at San Diego for a $400 swindle, 1n Boston for forgery and at elther points for similar crimes, although he has a home and respectable parents in Mt. Clatre, N. J. Sought to Reach Girl. When thelr fears were confirmed the other membere of the Shonfeld family, including the aged and distressed parents, tried to get In touch with the endangered girl. They have written a half dozen letters and many telegrams, but now comes a brief letter from her stating that they are going to New York and begging to know why no one has written her. No address is given and the whole circumstance leads the relatives to believe that Watkins fs holding her mail from her and perhaps manipulating that of hers which she tries to send here. Mr. Shonfeld is now redoubling his efforts and appeals to The Bee and to all news- papers to give the widest possible publicity to the real facts in the case, as that seems the enly means of overtaking Watkins and rescuing the girl. 'he father asks that wherever she be found his daughter be held in safety until he can be notified. He will come to her at once and will reward anyone for whatever expenses may be Incurred.

Sturgls, treasurer of the Labor Tem- ple association, has made Lis report of the financial condition of that institution for the term ending July 1. According to the IJ port the association is now in. debt in the sum of $1,613.16, of which sum $1,150 is due the labor unions which meet in the bullding. This money was advanced at the time the association moved its quarters from the Pat- terson buflding to its present location. The cost of arranging the new bullding to suit the purposes of the ociation was $1,614.41, of which sum all has been pald except a comparatively. small amount due for ma- terfal. Including the cost of preparing the w hall the operating expenses of the ag- soclation during the six months have been $3,760.29 which incfudes money paid on the idebt of the association at the beginning of the term. The total recelpts, including the loan from the unions, was $3,327.13 for the period of $423.16, and a debt in ex- oess of cash on hand of $680.21. The state- ent of recelpts and expenditures for the first #lx months of the year i very satis- factory to the officers, as it includes con- siderable extraordinary expense, incident to moving, showing that under the present con- ditions the debt on the temple will be wiped out in & short time. The furniture of the bullding &' insured for $1,600, and §1,000 is carried upon parti- tions and fixtures. The salary of the super- Antondent bas been increased from $80 per month to $100 per month on account of the pdditional work required in the new gquar- Jors.

The Ninth ward boasts an 8-months-old taby who eats meat, bread, gravy and po- tatoes and drinks coffee, to the total ex- cluslon of milk, pap and other forma of in- fant food. That s, a part of tne ward boasts of M; the other part complatns that the child Is being abused, though that this mite of humanity thrives upon the diet of a day laborer cannbt be gainsald. His name 1s Emmanuel Dachsteiner and he s the son of Carl Dachsteiner, 3007 Chicago street Three women of the neighorbood called on Health Commissioner, Ralph yesterday to see if something could not be done toward regulating mattess in the Dachsteiner nome. “He 18 an old man,” they sald, “abous 7% years old, and this child is by his second wife, who has been in the hospital almost sinoe the day of its birth. He can’t keep a girl for some reason 8o he has to take care of the child himself. We did what we could to help him on the start. We told him what kind of milk to get and how to get it just the right temperature and all that, but he sald it made the baby sick. One day,’®con- tinued the spokesman, “1 was there about dinner time. He was just ready to sit down to the table and the baby was crying with the collc and spitting its milk out and the old man was mad. He shook the poor little thing and slammed i€ inte the high chair at the table and sald “ ‘Here, you! Eat vat I eat or tie!’ “Ever since then he's been feeding It mashed potatoes and beefsteak and stuff like that.” “How does the baby stand 1t?" asked the health commiseioner. “The child looks all right. It doesn't cry as much as it used to, but surely it can't stand that kind of food very long.” The commissioner assured the delegation that the city had mo right to interfere in the case, whereupon the women began to speculate upon the advisabllity of filing a complaint of cruelty to children. —— “Falry Tales of the Western Range,” “Rex M's” (B, 0.

It was found that negotiations for the Twenty-second Regiment band had been unsuccessful and a committee will wvisit Fort Crook to see if the commander of the regiment will not release the band for the excursion. The band is already engaged for the Elks' Wxcursion to Salt Lake and this s understoéd to be reason why it is found difcult to secure it for the Dead- ‘wood trip.

WHAT BECOMES OF THE COUNTY TAXES Court Expenses, Jurors’ Fe Other Such Bills Are Inelud in the Large As- sortment. In Saturday evening's issue The Bee an- nounced that 5,000 of the county's general | fund warrants would be ready Monday, | morning and the result is that since a very | early hour the county clerk’s office force | has been ae busy as so many haymakers | waiting on a crowd that lines the long counter with few gaps. Clerks Frank Dewey and Dan Butier have taken caths enough to supply a steamboat captain for a full week, if properly misapplied. These warrants tell a tale of finance. They show what becomes of the taxes that the county board levies for, the county treasurer asks for ‘and special collectors finally have to go gunning for. In this bateh of 6,000 are some to cover part of the court expenses that have piled up since July of last year. For Instance, for the October term of district court the fees of the petit jurors amounted to $7,735, and for the talesmen $272, making @ total of $8,007. For the February term the jpetit jurors cost $7.- 719.70, the talesmen $82.50 and the special jurors $61, or a total of $7,863.20. For the May term, which hasn't bBeen consldered by the board and will not be for some time, there is entered $4,144.10 for petit jurors and $114 for talesmen, or a total of $4,28.10. These three totals make the grand totals for jury service through three terms of court $20,128.30 ar< there must be added to this sum thix year a total of $2,065.60 for the services of the grand jurors. This makes the great grand total for district court jurors look like $22,- 193.90, and the purse of the taxpayer locks like it had been hard hit. Other Minor Funds. To this might be added the fees for the county court jurors and the coroner’s jurors, but the former amount to practically noth- ing and the latter to too little to be wor- ried over. Witnesses cost some money, too. Those in district court during the October term have & bill against the county for $1,837.90; those called during the February term for $1,962.90, and those of the May term, not yet allowed, $1,001.10, or a total of §4,801.90. Add to this $1,676.10 for witnesses called be- tore the grand jury and the total rises to $6,478, still exclusive of county ecourt and coroner obligations. For five justice courts the total of witness fees is given as $235.40, the first bill heing dated November. The county, however, does not pay these sums in full, as many who serve as wit- nesses or jurors owe the county for taxes, and this indebtedness is always subtracted | from the face of the warrant issued. The coynty gains immensely by this and its offi- clals marvel that the city does not adopt the same system. Justice Altstadt put in a claim for $121.70 and has been allowed $83.70; Bryce Craw- ford, $57.75; Justice Foster, $41.75, and Justice Baldwin $17.20, making a total of $435.80 for the justice courts, if there be included the $235.40 for witnesa fee The coroner, serving from January to July, puts in fifty-eight payrolls, totaling $772 for witnesses and jurors, and a bill of $435.75 for himself, or a total of $1,206.75. Expense for Insane Cases. Insanity cases are another considerable drain upon the county funds. The consta- ble and witness fees are recorded as only $89, but the total to be pald out of this last appropriation s $2,346.10. This includes three bills of Dr. George Tilden, filed Oc- tober 17, February 6 and March 18, for a total of $747.50; two bills of J. L. Kaley for a total of $393, and a total of $1,166.60 for Frank A. Broadwell, clerk of the dis- trict court. He filed a bill as commissioner March 28 for $276.50, one for $260.90 and another for $334.70 on April 15, and to this total of $872.40 as insanity commisslioner and clerk of the board he adds $294.20 for fees In insanity cases.
