John Moode , the mall carrier , who runs
between Council Blurts and Taylor station ,
had a scare yesterday. He was driving Un
cle Sam's fiery steeds along toward Council
Bluffs nt a dog trot when he ran across an
emigrant wagon , In which were a man and
woman , near the School for the Deaf. They
stopped him and said something. Just what
It was he doe3 not know , but he avers that
ho saw a revolver In the hands of the man
and the woman. The red-hot streak which
he made on the ground from the scene of
the alleged hold-up to the Council Blurts city
Jail has not yet cooled off. He charged the
pair with attempted highway robbery , and
when they drove Into the city last night they
were nabbed by Officer Wler at the corner of
High street and Seventeenth avenue and
deposited behind the Iron bars. They gave
their names as Selly Smith and Edith Tuppy ,
and claimed to live twenty miles west of
Lincoln. They had both been drinking , and
although they denied having had a revolver ,
ono was found lying on the bottom ot the

but 50 cents , I can now positively assert
that I nm completely cured , nnd would heart

FURTHER TESTIMONY.
This Is to certify that I was a sufferer from
rheumatism for over a year. My right wrist
was badly swollen and so painful I could not
bear on it at all. I tried various remedies
without avail until three months ago , when
on looking over the Chicago .Herald I saw
the advertisement of Munyon's Rheumatism
Cure and determined to try It.
The result surpasses all belief. I Improved
Immediately , and after the use of two bottles
tles I was completely cured.

A society man turned detective is a novelty in that pro
fession. Mr , HORACE PREBLE is such a man , and
HOWARD FIELDING
is the chronicler of his adventures. The affair of
THB FRAUDULENT CLAIM
exhibits an interesting1 phase of the character of Mr * PREBLE
It shows that a detective may
serve the law at the expense of
his conscience , and that technical
right is often actual wrong.
Mr. FIELDING is never found in
the beaten paths ; and it will not
surprise the readers of this story to discover that it is very
far out of the ordinary line of detective fiction. The
author has exposed a variety of
rascality common enough in real
life but new in romanca. The
story is bright and entertaining ;
I
it appeals strongly to the sympa
thies of the reader. It will be
printed in two parts , the flrst of
which will appear in THE BEE of
May 23 and the conclusion on the following d\y.
