KANSAS CITY. July 13.-The mob which ca&de a demonstration last night against tho county Jail, where Frank Holland and Joa Itoburtson, negro, charged with an assault upon Miss Uiaco Davis, are con fined, broke up at 3 o'clock thin morning Into disorderly groups, which chased and assaulted dozens of negroes who had givtn no offense. At au early hour today gng of men were still hanging about tho north end of town, talking of tho Davis outragq and threatening tho negroes. An ntuck on the Jail, If uttumptcd, would have been repulsed, tho police say. Tloberts and Holland, tho negroas whom a mob tried to reach at the county Jail last night, for assaulting Miss draco Davis, were "sweated" early this morning. While neither admitted complicity In tho crime, the officer feel convinced by their actions that they are tho guilty men. Maupln, the third arrest, Is now believed to bo the leader of tho trio and tho chief offender. It Is believed that, since tho guilt of tho men has been, practically established, an attempt moro determined than that of last night will bo made, probably today or late tonight, to mob the county Jail and lynch the men. Deputy marshals this morning changed their feeling toward the negroes whiti tbolr gurU boenme moro cer tain and one or two officers at the Jail were heard to express tho sentiment that nil threo negroes richly deserved lynch ing. Marshal Muxv,cll 1ms taken every precaution to protect tho men and says he can succcsblully combat any attack on the Jalt. Uoth tho police and tho county officials are endeavoring to keep the whereabouts of the negroes secrot, but It Is known that nil three are In the county Jail. Ilobcrts and Holland wero supposed to have been Bplrlted away from the city laet night, but it nevoiopen tula morning that thoy had Imply been taken Into u tunnel running from tho Jalt to tho court house across the street and kept thero until tho excite ment died down. Tho mob dlsporsod bo fore daylight and tho men were returned to their cells. Maupln, It Is bellovcd, will bo arraigned during the day, when troublo may result. If possible ho will be taken before Miss Davis todny to see If she can Identify him. She has already partially Identified Uob erts and Holland, who, sho gays, held her while tho third man committed tho assault. Maupln has served time In tho county Jail nnd at one time was a "trusty." lloborts has served tlino In tho pont tentlary. Governor Dockery has offered a reward of $200 each for tho arrest of the assailants Of Miss Davis. The thirteen men nrrested last night for Inciting riot were fined $5 each In police court this morning nnd released. "The charges against them was disorderly con duct, carrying concealod weapons and de stroying personal property.

Today we see n relative or friend or an acquaintance apparently well, and In u few days wo may bu grieved to learn of their serious Illness or sudden death, caused by that fatal type of kidney trou ble Urlght's disease. Kidney trouble often becomes advanced Into acuto stages before tho nflllcted la aware of Its presence; that Is why we read of no many sudden deaths of prom inent business and professional men. phy. Blclons and others. They have neglected to stop the leak In time. While scientists are puxsllng their brains to find out the cause, each Individual can. by a little precaution, avoid tha chances of contracting dreaded and dangerous kid ney trouble, or erndlcuto it completely from their Byatom If ulrcady allllcted. Many precious lives might have been, and many moro can yet bo saved, by paying attention to tho kidneys.

South Omaha News In all probability tho city officials will bo abb to furnish to tho purchaser of the late 0,000 bond lssuo the much deslrod nnd long since demanded certified copy of tho South Omaha charter. H. L. Cohn, who went to Lincoln yesterday to secure this, was Informed by Secretary Marsh that the copy would be Immediately made Hnd forwarded to South Omaha without delay. The finance committee of the city coun cil has worn n worried look ever since this matter first came boforo It. Tho demand by the attorneys of Mr. Hoobler for this copy wns a surprise to the per sons having tho matter In chargo, although at tho limn they did not anticipate any trouble In securing the certification from tho secretary of state. Rver since tho first demand was, mude for the copy there has been much corre spondence over tho securing of this doc ument, until tho city, tired of the delay, sent Mr. Cohn to Lincoln to soe If tha matter could not be hurried through. It seems that ho was successful in bis work and tho copy will ho forwarded today. At least ho was so assured by Secretary Marsh. Why the city Is so anxious to have this matter finally closed up Is that It means a difference of 4,i per cent and G per cent per annum on $50,000 to tho city. Tho old bonds aro still drawing Interest, Just as If the city had not taken advantage of the five years' option to tako them up. The old bonds drew Interest at tho rate of 6 per cent, whllo the non onos only draw 4Vi per cent, which, even for a few days, makes a material dlfforcnco In tho obligations of tho city. Tho Interest coupons on the old bonds, however, arc all paid up, so there Is no danger of compound Interest being charged against the city. Tho session laws, con taining the new charter, will not be ready until after the first of August and this Is why the city has been so anxious to so curo a rpeclal certification of the charter Independent of the balance of tho laws pasted at tho late session of tho legisla ture.

Charles Akofer, who runs a Baloon at C.i North Twenty-fourth street, and James Crowley, a saloon keeper at Twenty-fourth and N Btroetp, were yesterday In the police court, charged with having vio lated the stnte saloon law. Tho complaints aro mado by Charles H. Long and L. F. DeLorimcr. It was said yesterday that tho arrests aro tha result of the rofusal of tho saloon men to pay tho promised donations to the street fair and that tho association Is back of tho arrests. Thoj wero llled In tho police court by the local attorney for tho fair association and it seems tho gen eral Impression that they aro made for tho solo purpose of causing these two saloons to pay nnd to establish a precedent with tho others Just what will happen If thoy do not stick to their promisee. Fair Drnvm to n Close. If there was on disposition on the part of any great numbur of people to visit South Omaha yesterday the extromo heat kept them away. Whatever may have been tho reason, during the afternoon tb-j usual South Oranha crowd did not even appear, while in the evening not many showed up on the streets. During tho day the Midway was entirely deserted. The high fences kept out what little breeze was blowing, whllo tho sun, bentlng down upon tho paved streets enclosed, mado It more like a furnace than a plearuro resort. The bull fight was held In tho evening, but, contrary to expectations, onfy a few people appeared About tho same kind of an ex hibition as had been given took place. To day tho fair will close. Many of the booths nro nlroudy preparing for the oxlt of out-of-town pooplo and nro making plans for the tearing down of their exhibits. Tho last bull fight of tho carnival will tako placo at 7 o'clock tonight. Aeroiwiut Iloyd Injured. Aeronaut Roy Boyd, while attempting to make a balloon ancenslon from tho cornor of Twenty-fifth and O streets last night, wns caught In the ropes and beforo he could extrlcato himself tho balloon bad risen tlftren or twenty feot. Boyd then fell to the ground, striking on the back of tho head, which rendered him uncon scious, No one seems to know how tho accident occurred. Boyd has made eevcrnt i-ucccas-ful attempts with his balloon and quite a crowd bad congregated to watch the ex hibition. After the accident he wns car ried to his room and physicians wero sum moned, who said that they did not think the man had sustained any serious Injuries, but that be would be laid up for some time.

Tho offer of Mr. Bear to give free passes to the threo young women btaudlng high est on the list Sunday morning is an In centive to the popular women of Omaha who earu their living by their own ef forts apil tho increased numbor of votes shown this morning over thoso of Friday allow the appreciation In which Mr. Bear's offer Is held. When ttic candidates In the contest Bee the list Sunday morning they will know without further notification that the threo with tho. greatest .number .of votes, tho first three 'jpon tho Omaha list, will bo day morning and receive credentials which will be honored by Dear for boxes at the theater", v?nr,' -lutiSer," a drama of merit, Is being presented for tho first part of the week. Looking; to tho Mnlu Chnner. There Is one thing about this offer of Mr. Bear which should be borno In mind and that Is that every tlmo a right to a box in the theator Is won it Is assurance that tho winner is moving toward tho va cation tickets, the real object of the con test. No one In the Omaha list Is barred tn tho offer 01 the theatrical manager; tho winner of last week may be tho winner of this week. In the contest of the ballots new names are constantly being added and among tho new ones who have but few votes to their credit this morning may be the ones who will carry off the tickets tomorrow and who will receive tho grand prizes at the close of tho contest. For this reason all votes should come In and como In with a rush, for no one knows what one day will bring forth In tho strugglo nnd the vantage ground of tho high numbers will attract persons who have not decided for whom they desire to vote. Every man likes to vote for a winner. This Is known by tho managers of political campaigns who Instruct their agents to "claim every thing until the other fellow Is elected," but whore the votes aro counted dally It Is only possible to claim what Is in sight, so the weight of the winning side Is with tho ones who get their votes In early and often. Remember, the business office of Tho Beo will be open until 9 o'clock tonight for the reception of votes and the names of tho winners of tho three theater boxes will be announced In The Sunday Morning Bee.

We made the money and that's the stuff.

Tllden prior to her departure for an extended trip In the east next Tues day. Their song related to tho profits made by the association In serving refresh ments at the Bellstedt concerts, the brunt of the burden of that work having fallen upon Mrs, Tllden.
