    WORK OF THE STORM
Wan Initial to tlio Flood of Two
Years Ago.
Residence or Jo Lake, on Wlntersteln
Bill, Struck By Lightning and Burned
to the Ground Mn. Lake yntte Badly
Burned About the Face and Hands
While Savins the Furniture.
From Saturday's Daily.
What waa undoubtedly the worst
rain and wind storm which had visited
Plattemoulh for many years, occurred
this afternoon between the houra of 1
and " o'clock. Shortly after dinner a
huge black cloud began to form in the
north and northwest, which secmrd to
gradually spread over the entire sky.
For a while the water and bail came
down in torrents, and Main street and
the avenues had more the appearance
of rivers thaa anything- else. What
perhaps prevented a repetition of the
it oat putt tr- flml nf Tnlir ft 1 VU( 'fn.rH
. . ...
aero was tne laci mat, scores 01 ciu-
izens braved the storm and removed
the obstructions from the sower oien
Ings and in the alleys where tho
watflr mii?lit back and thus run into
the cellars.
The saddest feature of tho storm,
however, waa tho destruction by fire
of Joe Lako's rosidenco property on
Wintcrbteen hill. The building waa
struck by lightning and burned to the
ground before the fire department
could arrive on the scene. A large
part of tho furniture was 9aved, but
the loss ia estimated at over $1,000.
While battling with the Games in an
attempt to save tho furniture, Mr.
Lake waa severely burned about tho
head and hands.
In many places in tho Burlington
yards tho water wan four and fivo foot
deep, and for a timo it was extremly
difficult to operate trains. The small
bridge at the north cntranco to the
fchop yards waa damaged, and for a
time it waa thought it would go out.
II. C. McMaken, who watched the
progresa of the storm quite closely,says
the worst part of it passed over in an
earterly direction, and he thinks East
ern Iowa suffered the greatest damage.
Note of the Storm.
The rain and bail played consider
able havoc with fruit trees, but it is
not thought the growing crops suffered
to a great extent.
Many of the telegraph wirea along
both the Burlington and the Missouri
Pacific lines were blown down and for
a time communication by wire waa
greatly interfered with.
One of the destructive features of the
flood which will bo regretted by the
citizens generally, ia the fact that the
water washed away sidewalks with a
relentlessness equal to tho Hood of two
years ago.
Cellars in various parts of the city
were more or less water-soaked, but
the fact that the sewera wero kept
open during the entire time of the
storm, prevented a great doai of dam
age in thia respect.
Owing to the fact that the shop
yards were flooded, the men did not
work after 2 o'clock thia afternoon. It
is thought the damage which the com
pany will sustain as a result of the
flood will reach S3.000.
Two cars loaded with lumber, which
were standing on the stock yards track.
just south of the shops, started out of
their own accord during the storm,
headed in a northerly direction. They
were stopped, however, before any ser
ious damage was done.
Trltsrh-Ilagel Nuptial.
Friday at high noon at the home
of the bride, thirteen miles southwest
of Piattsmouth, occurred the marriage
of Miss Laura Hagel to Jacob Tritsch,
jr., the ceremony having been per
formed by llev. P. II. Freund of thia
city. Miss Emma Wehrbein was
bridesmaid and Edward Ilagel best
man. The bride was beautifully
gowned in white and the groom wore
the conventional black. The floial
decorations were very pretty and
everything passed off nicely. Thero
were about two hundred guests pres
ent and an elegant dinner was served
which waa thoroughly enjoyed by all.
The bride is the daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. William Ilagel of Mt. Pleas
ant precinct, and the groom ia a son
of ex-County Commissioner Tritsch.
Both families are well and favorably
known in Casa county, and enjoy a
large circle of acquaintances and
friends. The young people will go to
housekeeping at once.
Mrs. Bennet Entertains.
From Saturday's daily.
Mrs. L. D. Bennett entertained a
few lady friends yesterda3r afternoon
from 2 until 6 o'clock. It was quite an
informal affair and thoreforo doubly
pleasant. Coffee, cane and icea were
served.
The following ladies enjoyed Mrs.
Bennett's hospitality: Mesdaraes II.
N. Dovey, J. N. Wise, J, L. Hoot, C.
M. Butler, Ben Elson, V. V. Ieonard,
P. II. Wilson, Asher Clark and Mrs.
Cooper.

Six colored hoboes drifted into the
Burlington yards this morning, but
Marshal Slater soon collared them and
showed the fellows the shortest nnd
best way out of town.

1JIOT AT THE INSTITUTE
Governor Foynter' Appointees Make an
Attack In Force
Another exciting chapter in tho Be
atrice institute trouble waa enacted
Friday, when Governor Poyntor's ap
pointees made an attack upon the man
agement of the institute in force
Speaking of the affair, the Beatrice
correspondent of the Bee eays:
"Dr. W. H. Dearing, the new ap
uointee of the Institute for Feeble
minded, and C. W. Stewart, hteward
and D. C. McEntee of the governor's
office came down from Lincoln to look
over tne institute and if possible to ex
ecute and strategic move that might
offer itself. Mr. Stewart was the fire
arrival on the scene, reaching the city
earlv this morning ana going to mo
Institute. Dr. Dearing and Mr. Mc
Entee arrived at noon ai d drove ou
there thia afternoon with Constable
Joe Grimes and posse to replevin tho
books of tho books of the institute
I Dr. Lang refused to eui render th
j Q(j9
I "There was some
sort of resistance
on tho part of Peterson, one of the at
ten Jants, who, it ia reported, throat
ened to use a club on somo of the Dear
ing party. They wero met at the door
and asked if they were representing
the governor. Mr. Stewart said that
they did not, but that he came there as
steward for the steward's books. In
the meanwhile tho posse had gained
an entrance and an effort was made to
secure possession of Dr. Lang. The
doctor had retired to his private ollice
Mrs. Lang and Mrs. Dawolf stood in
tho door to protect the doctor when
one of the deputies, said to be Hunt,
took hold of her roughly and tried to
pull her out of the doorway and her
dresswaist waa nearly torn off of her
The dress of another of the lady at
tendants waa also torn by one of tho
constables' posse. They did not suc
ceed in getting possession of the doc
tor, owing to the gallantry of the lady
defenders. Finally, however, thero
was a sort of a lull in the proceedings
and as tho constable's posse had got
ten into the ollice tuey took possession
of one or two old books lying on the
safo. Considerable commotion pre
vailed for a while, but finally quieted
down and word was telephoned down
town and the sheriff notified. t
"In tho meantime the Dearing party
drove back to town for further legal
conference. Mr. Stewart remained at
the institute, presumably to hold tacit
possession.
"Word waa sent to tho sheriff's of
fice from tho institute and ho at once
organized a posse to arrest Dr. Dear
ing. Hunt, Grimes, McEntee and Stew
art, charging them with riot. Tho
warrants wero issued from Judge
Bourne's charging the above named
with endeavoring to take forcible po
session ol the institute. The posse
drove out to institute hurriedly in a
hack. Among the poaso were Fred
McGirr, L P. Kraus, John Knight,
Earl Thompson, Charles Shnfer, John
Walker and W. II. Jones.
"The Lincoln parties hurriedly left
the institute and coincident with their
departure telephone communication
between the city and institute closed
Dr. lvtng and his party remain in pos
session of tho institute and all that the
other fellows obtained was a couple of
old books of no special value, which
they subsequently surrendered to the
sheriff.
Dr. Jang and an assistant came
down to town this evening and com
plcted the com plaints of assault against
the Dearing party, constable and dep
uties. The defendants were arrested
by the sheriff and their hearing set for
thia ovening before Judge Bourne.Tho
hearing was continued to Juno 27, on
affidavit of the defendants, McEntee,
Dearing, Stewart, Hunt and Joe W.
Grimes. They gave bond in the 6ura
of $200 each for their appearance.
"Immediately upon their release
Constable Grimes swore out a warrant
for tho arrest of Dr. Lang and Attend
ant Peterson for resisting an officer.
They wero arrested and brought in
and afterwards excused by tho sheriff
upon agreeing to appear in the morn
ing for hearing. Other warrants are
being issued. The move of the Lincoln
parties was made to obtain, if possible.
possession of tho letters i eceived, books
which contain correspondent of a
doubtful character, which tho inter
ested parties would give worlds to pos
sess. Warrants are out for Onirics
Stewart for assaulting Dr. Lmnsr with
an ice chisel and for McKntee for as
saulting Mrs. Lang.

H. A. Waterman, ctief of the Bur

business.
Thought He Was a lesrrt-r.
A man who gave his name as La
mont Smith was arrested Saturday
evening on suspicion his actions caus
ing tho switchmen in the Burlington
yards to believe that he was a crook.
He stated that he hailed from Fort
Crook, where he had tried to re-enlist
as a soldier. This statement caused
the officers to suspect that be was a
deserter from the army, and he was
quickly hustled to jail. The heid offi
cer at the Fort was called up by tele
phone yesterday and questioned in re
gard to Smith, but the information he
gave was such as to convince tho local
officers that the prisoner was not
wanted up there being a littlo.too ol
for that sort of service and Smith wa
accordingly released.
TWO lilG IAMAGi: SUITS
New Sant-rlntentleiit-clert and Hi Ah
sistttut are I)t feudatita.
A special from Beatrice in yester
day's Stato Journal, says:
"When Dr. Dearing and D. C. Mc
Enteo from the governor's office
stepped out of the dining room at tho
hotel after breakfast this morning
they wero met by a deputy sheriff whi
served summons on them in a $10,000
damage suit, brought asain-t them by
Nellie Alvord. one of the employes at
tho Btato institution. C. C. llunt.Mar
tin llobinson and C. V. Stewnrt, are
also made defendants in the suit, and
wero later served with papers in tho
case. They are charged with assault
ing the plaintiff, breaking her linger
tearing her dress and causing her
trreat mental anguish. A similar suit
for $10,000 damages was also begun by
Mrs. DeWolf against tho same defend
ants. These suits are a result of yes
terday's conflict at the stato institu
tion. To all appearances everything
was quiet out thero today. Mrs
Thomas, the matron, who is appointed
by the governor, and whom Dr. Lang
has been trying for months to get rid
of, left for the institution today. Sho
said they wero making it so uncom
fortable for her she could not remain.
John Donahue, tho chief engineer, l'ft
for his homo in Lineoln tonigh. Dr.
Dearing, Stewart, McEntee nnd Hunt,
returned to Lincoln this afternoon. It
is reported th.V. Stew trd Stewart wil
return the first of tho week and open
an ollice down town; also that the
board of public lands and buildings
will no longer recognize Dr. Lang hs
superintendent, and that all persons
furnishing tho institution with supplu
are to bo notified that their bills will
not bo paid unless they are ordered by
the new management. This would in
dicate that an effort will be mide to
force Dr. Lang out as was done in Dr.
Fall's case.
"The row continues to be the chief
theme of conversation. While the
row was on vesterdav a large number
of the employes on tho two new build
ings being erected, bagged for permis
sion from tho officers to go in and
clean out tho management. It is a
significant fact that among these men
who are willing to express an opinion,
they aro all opposed to Lang and his
force. One of the carpenters says he
saw an attendant a few days ago whip
one of tho inmates with a board, and
it is such occurences as those coming
under their daily notice that has
caused a feeling of resentment among
the workmen. While tho conflict was
going on yesterday Lang called on
some of these men who wero standing
on the porch to come in and help pro
tect the state s property.
"J.OhelI with tho state s property
and you with it,' was the rejoinder.
Had it not boeu for one of the fore
men one of his workmen would have
tried conclusions with one of tho at
tendants who was supporting Lang.
The general opinion is that the gov
ernor should go out with a sufficient
force to enforce his orders. Constable
Grimes is exhibiting a number of
bruises on his head and body which
ho says were inflicted bv the women
during the conflict. "
Reports show that over fifteen hun
dred lives have been saved through

the judge asked the groom if they
were ready to be married. The an -
Ewer, though in the affirmative, was
not intended to convey the impression
that he wanted the judge to perform
the ceremony, but that official asked
no more questions. In a very few mo
ments, before they could realize what
was going on, the knot was tied. As
the "husband and wife" settled back
into chairs, the groom informed the
judge that they had not intended to
have him perform the ceremony. No
formal protest was made, however,
and It is presumed that they went at
nniv t.rt nnnvov l.hn t tnl ItcrnnpA In lha
rest of the bridal party.
Judge Douglass evidently believes
in the scriptural injunction, "What
thou doost, do o.uickly."
Charlos II. Marks, while acting in

Would Not Suffer 80 Again For Fifty
Times Its Price.
I awoke last night with severe pains in
my stomach. I never felt so badly in
my life. When I came down to work
this morning I felt bo weak I could
hardly work. I went to Miller & Mc-
MJurays arug storo ana they rec-
ommended Chamberlain's Choiic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. It
worked like magic and one dose fixed
me all right. It certainly is tho finest
1 thing I ever used for stomach trouble.
I shall not be without it in my7 home
1 hereafter, for I should not care to on-
I dure the sufferings of last night again
