J. n. Sweet went to Slou\ City yosterdiy
to prosecute the case against Leon holler ,
the Council IJIiiffs foot racer , who Is In Jail
there on the charge of obt'ilntng t.ioney
under false pretenses. The case came up
yesterday in the form of habeas corpus pro
ceedings , which were InsiltutcJ by Lo/lor
In tlio hope of gutting out of jail. Ills attor
ney claimed that ho was innocent , and. as
grounds for the claim , introduced witnesses
who swore that Ixj/.lor never madu any of
the false pretenses with which ho was
charged , with reference to John Maloney
having sent him to Whiting to run. Ho also
claimed that Ixulcr never received any of
the money.
During the trial a good many of the details
of the affair came to the surface an.l showed
the race to have been a cold-blooded fraud ,
like so many other foot races. Dell Harknesa ,
tlio young man against whom bo ran , was
put upon th < J stand and testitled that'll. U.
Kennedy of Omaha tnduce.1 him to run , and
when lie said ho was afraid to run against a
man like Loftier , who was evidently a sprinter
of no small caliber , Kennedy encouraiod him
b > saying that if ho would run ho would see
Ih-it he won the race. Hu mcnti med his
dimbls to I.o/.ler also , but Lo/ier told him
that if he got iii > alone side-of him. Just five
him a push und lie M i/ler ) would fall over.
Kennedy finally paid Harunc-is fit ) In ad
vance.
As to fxi/.icr's not ro-eivinj. : ' any of the
moiit > \ , it was shown that ho had ntiered
O'Kell , Malonej's bartender , to pay
the money over to Harry Holloway ,
and later on had or.lercd Hullo way to
ghcitto Kimn-dy , so that the prjsecuting
attorney claimed that he ha-S posed as prin
cipal in the affair , with Kennedy and Hello
way as agents.
There were a number of legal questions
contained in the case and tlio judge de
manded time to consider them. He accord
ingly took the case under advisement and
will probably render tils decision In a day or
two. If l.o/ier is released , however , be will
not get away at once , for informations have
been llled at Whiting , charging him with
conspiracy with Kennedy and his partner ,
and all three will bo immediately arrested.

W. C. Estcp returned homo yesterday
afternoon with the body of Conrad Lnnzcn-
dorfcr , who committed suiclJo at Carroll
last Sunday , and tlio funeral will take place
tomorrow afternoon at - o'clojk from the
residence on Seventh street , near the corner
of Willow avenue. Until yesterday only the
most meager details or the affair could bo
obtained , but it is now learned that It was a
bullet that ended his llfo and not poison , as
has been stated by the local papers as a mat
ter of conjecture. The deceased seated him
self on the bed in his room , and raising his
shirt put the muzzle of the revolver directly
on the skin above the heart and iired. The
revolver was evidently hold In tlio riglit
hand , as there were powder marks on the
left breast. None of the people in the hotel
heard the shot , and it was not for some time
after the tragedy had taken plaeo that his
door w.is forced open and ho was found lying
dead.
The actions of the people of Carroll were
very peculiar. They did not take the trouble
to s'end Mrs. Lanzeudorfer any word after
the llrst telegram , which was sent by I' . M.
Hoffman , proprietor of tlio hotel , where
Lanzendoi-fer had been stopping. The tele
gram contained none of tlio details , and
neither the coroner nor the proprietor of the
liotel seemed to have any idea that the
widow would have any anxiety to know how
tlio affair occurred.
When Mr. Estop readied Carroll he found
that the local undertaker had put the bodv
in a cheap casket and was making prepara
tions to bury it at the expense of the county.
When asked if he did not intend to send it
homo ho replied no ; ho was not sure of
getting his money if bo lot the bodv go out
of the county.
The actions of tlio hotel man were just as
strange. After the inquest the coroner
turned all the papers belonging to the de
ceased over Into the hands of tlio hotel 1
keeper , and ho refused to give them up 1s 1a
F.stop. The supposition is that ho intends
to hold tn"in until I in/endoi-fer's bill for
board , amounting to something over # 100 I ,
lias been bottled. U is stated that among
tlio papers is a llfo insurance policy of 2,000
. which Hoffman thinks Mrs. hanzcmlorfer
will be anxious enough to got to pay the
amount that is due. In keeping ttio papers
bo acted under advice of the county attorney
of Carroll county.

Considerable trouble has been had of late
with parties who persisted In catching llsh
in Lake M-mawa in spite of tlio state law
and the stringent orders of Mayor liecd of
Manawa. There are as many as a dozen
implicated and of late they have become so
bold as to carry on their operations In broad
daylight. In a single night recently 710
pounds of fish were caught , and the occur
rence was repeated almost every night in the
week , so that it was clear that unless some
thing was done at once tlio fishing would
not bo in much demand during tlio season ,
Die parties doing the llshing had made
their boasts that they would shoot the
llrst man that dated Interfere with them ,
and would burn the house over the head
of the man who made any complaint to the
authorities. Ofticers paid a visit to the lake
Monday night and kept watch all night long.
Just before daylight two men were heard at
work and the watchers concluded to take
them in. Approaching the boat tlio ortlccrs
ordered the merry fishermen to surrender.
One of them took to the willows anil es
caped ; the other started to row out into the
water and was caught after a short chase.
William Hall proved to bo the name of the
man who was caught , but in some way tlio
ofllccrs who had done the work contrived to
lot him escape. The boats , seines and 500
pounds of fish were recovered. A warrant
is to bo issued for Hall's arrest.

"People who dropped into the musical en
tertainment by the Schubert Symphony club
at the Young Men's Christian association
hall last Saturday night were very much
surprised at th" work of a charming little
tot in kilts , called on the bills Master tommy
Purccll. In face and figure he delights the
eye ; his work on the violin is remarkable
playing by note at li years of age. His
comic songs and Irish recitations brought
down storms of applause , and all wcro loth
to let the little fellow leave the stage.
American newspapers have been raving over
this cute little morsel for several seasons ,
and for once they are praising something
meritorious. Master Tom lias been appear

Klon KlvliU HiiTlrtvoililil rcM of
HIP by Mr . ( } lcL'nruo | to
tinD <
There was a tlmo when a convention of
women meant an assemblage of shorthaired -
haired , scatter-brained females who were
the laughing stock of sensible people. The
llrst meeting of tlio women of the United
Presbyterian church last evening showed a
gathering of Intelligent , refined ladies whom
it was a pleasure to meet.
The devotional exercises were conducted
hi Airs. Dr. Moorhcad of Xenla , O. , the
singing being conducted by a largo choir
under the leadership of Kov. J. A. Hender
son of Park avenuo. Following this came
the address of the evening by tlio president ,
.Mrs. Or. Vincent. It was what might well
bo called a masterly effort , full of eloquence ,
logic and beauty.
She llrst called attention to the fact that
the year IS'.KI was the loath anniversary of
tlio sending out of the llrst foreign mission
ary from English shores. She then brought
out In a forcible way the changes that have
taken place in the last 100 .years , the giant
strides of Christianity. "India , once hos
tile , lias become tolerant , China--the
walled kingdom once presented lormidahlo
diniculties to the soldiers of the cross.
Darkest Africa has been penetrated by the
Light of the World. Japan welcomes the
'old , old story. ' Madagascar has fully de
monstrated that the word of (2od is power
ful to convert. The Sandwich Islands have
abandoned idolatory. Fiji islands have
turned from ways that are darkness to the
light of the gospel.
"Our own fair land has made great pro
gress. Ah- . Gladstone says of us that wi
ll ivo a grout base for the greatest continuous
empire ever established by man We of the
east have ahva.vs considered Omaha was
very far west , 'hut some delegates wrote
that they could not come so far east as
Oii'aha this year. Tlio one state of Texas is
large enough to accommodate all the in
habitants of the United States. After
allowing r > 0,000 square miles for desert ,
Texas could produce all our food crops and
raise the whole supply of cotton
and then have a cattle range larger
than the state of New York. Forty years
ago the government reported Nebraska as a
great desert , hopelessly unlit for cultiva
tion. Now you liave 1,000,000 people and wo
are enjoying the hospitality of one of our
great cities. America is the new land of
promise to all the world. Wo have so much
roe n and so many coming to us from all
p.irts of the earth. The heathen have been
brought to our very doors. In the word of
God is the only solution of the great tabor
problem of the day. The work of the homo
missionary was never so much needed as
now.
"With our societies , 'our ' young people's
Christian unions and Christian endeavor
societies , wo have equipment for active work
for our Master. This is America's day of
opportunity. To us have oeen given live
talents wealth , education , an open door to
every nation , a popular ; language , art and
science. It would be hard to estimate the
gramlriess of our opportunity , the greatness
of our responsibility. ,
"All Christins ! are divided into three
classes , mission Christians , anti-mission
Cluistians and omission' ' Chrlsians. In the
United States every year is spent SI for mis
sions to every 100 for whisky. Congress
and the several states'havo appropriated
$ ii,000,000 ; for a display of our material pros
perity. How much shall -\ye lay on God's
altar to scud Ills mesiWgo Into all the
world ? "
