LUNATIC BREAKS OUT IN JAIL Michael Sweeney Terrorises Prison- ers by Mad Antics While . He is Delirions. Michael F. Sweeney, an inmate of the county jail, terrorized the prisoners late Monday by springing madly about in an effort to elude an imaginary armed pur- suer. His brother, livimg with him at 1720 South Sixth street, filed an fneanity com- plaint and Deputies Roach and McClenne- ghan took the unfortunate in a carriage to the jail yesterday afternoon. He was then quiet and apparently perfectly self- possessed, but suddenly he screamed the unearthly scream of the demented and began racing about the jail assembly cell The other prisoners backed against the walls and huddled in corners. One named Graves was the exception, and he fol- lowed Sweeney about until he could get hold of him and quiet his weird fears. The chase had taken them to the gallery that circlék about the inside of the cell on a level with the second floor and Graves placed Sweeney in a chair there, pending the arrival of a jailer who was working his way through the bolted doors as fast as possible. The demented man was quiet for a few seconds, then with catlike agllity sprang for the gallery edge and leaped over the railing. It seemed for an instant that he must be killed, for he would strike on his head on the thick steel floor below, but some of the prisoners about him and the deputy reached out just in time to catch him by his feet and save him. A minute later he was himself again and #ald that the attack had been the worst he ever suffered, but for safety he was taken to the solitary for the night Yesterday the commissioners renewed their talk of need for a padded cell and contractors are on band to bid. SPECIAL NIGHTS AT KRUG PARK. Ragtime and Selections from the New Light Operans. The regular Wednesday ragtime concert, the biggest drawing card that has been placed on the summer resort amusement menu at Krug park, will be given tonight. All of the other shows coustituting the lengthy and varied program, including the Mont Pelee volcanic disaster,, the Loretta tamily, with Norine and Pauline, the youngest horizontal ‘bar performers in the world; the “Passion Play” and others. On Friday night the musical program by Hus- ter's concert band will be composed of selections from the most pepular light operas. Since the weather has grown warm the advantages of the cool, elevated lawns and groves, unaffected by the an- noying mosquitoes, is having its effect on the attendance. Picnic parties, composed mostly of women and children, come early in the day. REVENUE TAX COLLECTIONS Penalty on Liguor Licenses Will Ac- eruae After Thursday of Present Week, Thursday is the last day upon which pay- ments can be made to the collector of the intarnal revennd for 1. penalty of $12.50 will n(llch to each dealer in malt and spiritous liquor who has failed to pay, and this penalty will become part of the tax. At the office of the collector it is sald that the retall druggists are the worst class the collector has to deal with when it comes to paying the annual t the liquor business with many is simply inci- dental and they forget to renew their Ii- cense. The tax collections so far are bet- ter than expected, and it is sald that the sale of stamps this month will be almost equal to the sales of a year ago, when the ‘war revenue law was In force. This is due to the increased output of the distillery and the brewerfes. LAKE OKOBOJ1. On the Milwaukee Rallway.

WIDOW THOMPSON SECURES HIS ARR[S1" Omaha Police Ald in Bringing & Romance to n Showdown, but Settlement is Not Certal “ Thomas V. Walton, who cut such & swath fn Omaha during the fall and winter of the last year on money alleged to have be- longed to a sweetheart and bride that was to be in Boston, is an inmate of the city Jall. She who caused his arrest is Mrs, Elizabeth Thompson, the rich widow, sweetheart and bride-to-be, of Boston, who arirved in Omaha yesterday ymorning. Walton was arrested at the Merchants hotel by Detectives Savage and Dunn. He had been there several days, coming from Council Bluffs where he has been stopping under an assumed name. Yesterday afternoon J. W. Gilbert, at- torney for Mrs. Thompson, flled a com- plaint against Walton charging him with embezzlement, . the amount being a few dollars more than $1,800. The complaint was filed in Justice Carson’s court in Coun- cil Blufts. Met as Lovers Meet. Mrs. Thompson and Walton had a long- drawn-out conference in the latter's cell at the city jail last night. The two met as long-separated eweethearts and mot as enemies-at-law. Mrs. Thompson, whose avordupols 18 too sufficient to allow her to enter the door of the cell In the usual way, had to “sidle” in. But her reception was none the less cordial because of this. Wal- ton recognized her instanter and with a cry of joy sprang to meet her. He was enveloped In two large sleeves made in the manner of kimonss and his two hands peeped out beneath them on each side. A lon drawn-out kiss, a few “Tommys" and “Liz- zies” and the two had met after an absence of almost a year. Mrs. Thompson seated herself upon a large arm chair and Walton occupied the seat of honor on the right arm of the chafr. The conference continued for several hours and upon it depends whether or mot Wa ton will be prosecuted. At 10 o'clock the conference came to a close. Walton won out. Mrs. Thompson announced to the desk sergeant that she had agreed to give him a chance to return east and settle up their financial difference. “He Is too. young to send to the peniten- tlary,” she sald, “a good boy with & prom- ising future, gome wrong, is all. I won't prosecute him this time.” She then went on a hunt for the proper authorities to secure Waltpn's release. Walton's Swath in Omaha. Walton struck Omaha by storm last fall and immediately became a general favorite in soclety circles. He had money to burn and burned it. Last month it developed that the money on which Walton was cut- ting such a swath belonged to Mre. Thomp- son, to whom he was engaged to marry, The facts came out when A. C. Burwell. a paitae:r la ihe drug business of - which Mrs. Thompson was the head, came to Omaha after Walton, In October Walton had been sent by Mrs. Thompson to Logan, Ia., there to dlspose of & farm which she owned. He was to return In time for thelr wedding, which was then shortly to oocur. Walton didn't return, He sold the farm for $5,600 and of this sum $2,675 was sent to the waiting widow. 7 Before Mr. Burwell arrived in Omaha Walton had left. The last heard of him was in Kansas City, where he had scoom- panied two Gmaha young women Junme 12. The girls returned home June 28 without Walton, and until recently no further trace of him was found. The Boston widow finally called upon the police to assiet her. Walton was located several days ago and the widow was notified. Yegterday morning she arrived in Omaha and Walton's arrest tollowed. / ‘Widow May Not Prosecute. Walton is about 28 years of age, smooth- faced and boyish looking. He wears the latest style clothes and is handsome. His deserted sweetheart is past 40 and weighs over 250 pounds. She was stylishly gowned and her fingers were adorned with costly dlamonds. She 1s not sure whether Walton had stolen her money or whether he ex- pected to return it to her. She stated that she would not marry Walton if he was a criminal. When Walton came to Omaha last fall he represented himself to be the agent of & sporting goods house. He was a luqu.nt visitor at the Omaha club and was 4] Shvosite 8t the MAe"CICDA AT ant thne he was arrested on complaint of a young woman, but the case was settled out of court. ‘ Clatms Widow's Consent. One who was Intimate with Walton dur- ing his high flying in Omaha said that Mrs. Thompson wanted Walton more than she did the money he is alleged to have em- bezzled. He sald Walton had several letters from the widow in which she practically gave him the farm he sold or the proceeds from the sale of it. Bhe did this because she was troubled with heart disease and red that if she dled during Walton's ab- sence he would not get the money. In one letter she eald: ‘“This letter is better than a will for you. No one can beat you out of the money." Mrs. Thompson sald the reports in after- noon papers that she was past 40 years of age were untrue. “I am only 85," she sald, “and Mr. Walton 1s 33. As to my weight the. papers differ, but I cannot enlighten the publip as to that for I have not weighed since I was 15 years of age.” Mrs. Thompson's attorneys say they in- tend to prosecute, and the time of the hear- ing will depend upon whether or not Walton will return to lowa without requisition pa- pers. SLUGS HIS UNCLE FOR FAIR Richard Norris Gives Michael O'Mara the Knoek of His Life in & ¥i Michael O'Mara and Richard Norrls fought In the street in front of their home, 421 North Thirteenth street, yesterday aft- ernoon and O'Mara was struck in the face and knocked down. He struck the pave- ment with sufficient force to render him unconsclous and cut a deep gash in the back of his head. Immediately after striking O'Mars, Nor- ris ran a balf block to a telephone and notified the police station that & man had been slugged. - He then ran in the direc- tion of the smelters. Detectives Dunn and Savage, who saw him running, gave chase and overbauled Norrls after going several blocks, and he was locked up. O'Mara was removed into the house and attended by Police Surgeon Hahn. Later he was removed to St. Joseph's hospital and last night It was said he would recover, though he was seriously injured Norris 1s 17 years old and is & nephew of O'Mara. The two men make their home with Mre. Lizsie Norris, mother of the boy. The bave frequent quarrels and yesterday both were under the influence of liquor. Narris sald they began to fuss in the house and that his uncle struck him with & chalr. Whea they weat out WEDNESDAY, JULY 30, 1902. the fight was renewed and he struck O'Mara with his fist, his injurles being oaused by striking a stone on the pavement. O'Mara is a fireman, but at present both are out of work. WILL BE HEARD IN OMAHA OMelale Decide it Not Safe to Young Liehscher Hack to Vailey. Take The preliminary hearing of Albert Liebscher, the young German who ‘was brought from Valley Monday to escape a crowd that seemed disposed to lynch him for assaulting Hattle Pickard, aged 13, will be in Omaha. That much is already determfned, although no one has filed a complaint yet, so far as Is known, at the county offices. “To take him batk to Valley would be to court trouble,” said ome of the county officers, “and we don’t propose to do that. His arrest and dellvery at Omaha were well managed and averted a danger that ‘we will not fnvite to return.” A cealler at the court house who was in Valley when t chase occurred cor- roborates The Be story of this morn- ing and adds that much credit is due Mar- shal Leach, who got the boy out of town by a back street while a crowd, prompted by the girl's aged tather's appeals for his friends to help him, was running up and down another street not a block away, ery- ing out to lynch and to kill the culprit.

The pecullar compiication in the Board of Fire and Police commissioners was the principal topic. of conversation about the olty hall yesterday and there was much fn- genlous speculation as to what would be the outcome of it. Some seemed to think that Attorney J. J. O'Connor’s claim to a membership on the board was just, while others took a contrary view. ‘What wouid become of U'Connor,” was commonly asked, “if Governor Savage should ignore his claim and .appoint:some one to the board whose term would expire at the same time O'Connor's does? To this there were. no.ready answers. ‘“There are two. iquestions that might prevent his holding his place on the board,” said Assistant City Attorney Adame. “First, did the former adjudication, holding that the O'Connor boapd: was not legally ap- pointed, so adjndicate his case that he could mot assertgtitle to the office, even though the courtrhas held .that the former adjudioation was,bad law? “Second, has he -forfelted his right to the office by y- fallure to perform its duties since .he .was appointed? Certainly the latter would be decided in his favor, since he has had mno opportunity to pe: form {ts duties, so the first of these ques- tions is the only one which in my estima- tion has any welght.” 18-k. wedding rings.
