Placed Under Bonds.
Monday , Lovell and Mitchell Clyde'
were Drought beiore Countyjudge Smith
charged with assault with intent to kill ,
and with illegal arrest , false imprison-
mem with the intention of shipping out
of the state. The defendants were each'
placed under bonds in the sum of $2,500
to appear before the county judge on
May 26th , for preliminary examination.
Both charges are of a serious nature and
if proven it will not go easy with the
guilty.
The complaining witness , Mrs. Cali
fornia O'Connor , was placed under a • Ssoo
bond to appear before the court on the
same date.
j Glitters Like a Star.
j I The train is a marvel of the car build
j ers' art , and embodies manj' novel ideas.
j Besides being new from end to end it is
J striking in appearance because of the
rich canar- color of its cars.
Another striking point , says the Chicago
cage Inter Ocean , is the absence of plat
forms on the baggage car ; a novelty in
car construction , which very much im-
pr ives the appearance of the train.
The vestibules are of that generous
width , flush with the outside of the cars ,
heretofore only seen on a limited number
of the later Pullman cars. In connec
tion with this platform the Burlington
has adopted a ver } ' ingenious device , in
vented and patented b } * William Forsyth ,
master mechanic at Aurora , by means of
which the vestibule doors are opened
and the steps lowered with ease. I
The smoking car is a great improve
ment over those ordinarily in use , being
fitted with reclining chair seats , uphol
stered in leather. The chair cars are
beautifully finished in highly polished
mahogany. They are upholstered in
luxurious sick velvet plush , and the 1
aisles are covered with rich moquette |
carpet. Of the Pullman sleeping cars
mucy might be said , but when it is stated
that thev are of the latest Pullman pat
tern , with arched roofs , wide vestibules ,
and the richest finish in wood and upholster -
holster\- the experienced traveler has the
picture in mind at once.
The train is lighted with gas , is heated !
with hot water and leaves St. Joseph at
6:45 p. m. daily , reaching Chicago at
935 ; the following morning.
The latest stor } ' in railroad circles is
that the Burlington will endeavor to se
cure control of the Central Branch of the
Union Pacific should it pass from the
control of the Missouri Pacificwhich has
leased and operated it for sixteen years.
The dissatisfied bondholders recently ap
plied to the United States court at St.
Paul for the appointment of a receiver ,
but the application was denied. It is
now believed that the bondholders will
attempt ; to secure a reorganization of the
Central Branch by means of foreclosure
proceedings , and that in the event of a
reorganization the Burlington people ,
who have a connection at Concordiawill
endeavor ' to succeed the Missouri Pacific
in the control of the same. Lincoln

Charlie Parsons is visiting his parents ,
having came up from HoldregeSaturday
night. On Monday , Charlie and his l
mother went over to Herndon to visit !
relatives until Thursday when they in-j
tend returning home. i
The event of the season will be the |
weJiing of Willie Meyers and Luetta .
Helm. This young couple date their 1
courtship back almost to their childhood I
and their friends rejoice in the consum-1
mation of their happiness.
Eddie Byfield has gone to Kearney to
stay with his unfortunate brother Charlie.
Perhaps as hard as an } * part of Charlie's
mishap is the fact that he was branded a
tramp. It was far from his mind to be
come a tramp when he left Alda on his
bicycle , but after bursting a tire on the
wheel he consented to accompany a
friend on a stolen ride to North Platte ,
and thereby lost a leg. Among Charlie's
visitors at the hospital was Mr. J. H.
Bayston , who desired to be remembered '
to his may friends in Red Willow coun
ty. Mr. Bayston has charge of forty-
seven boys at the reform school at
Kearney.
