For twctrly years Mrs. J. H. Olassman of
8120 Corby street has been Bptert upon ami
repeatedly nttnckctl by a mysterious man,
described by hor an large of framo, of durk
complexion, with piercing black eyes and
gruff voice. The attacks, of which there
havo been flvo or six, appear to be attompts
at kidnaping, though why any one should
want to abduct her now Mrs. Olassmnn
does not know.
At ono- tlmo Mrs. Glapsnian thought her
swarthy Nemesis designed to make use of
her skill as a horsewoman, as her prowess
In this direction was acknowledged by nil
who know hor, but of lato years sho has
permitted It to lapso through lack of prai'
tlco and now shi ran explain the contlnuud
persecution only upon tbo theory that the
man Is Insane.
Tho last attempt to abduct Mrs. Olnss-
man was about 10:30 o'clock last Saturday
night, when sho was seized In the back yard
of her homo, half smothered under a coat
which was f brown over her head anil
dragged towuxd a buggy standing In tho
alloy. Thr.ro was a struggle; the house dog
attacked tho Intruder ami when the latter
dropped his victim for an instant to glvo
his attention to the dog the woman
screamed. Ho roturncd to her Instantly,
thrust a pistol against her templo and
threatened to shoot If sho didn't keep quiet.
Bho continued to struggle, whornupon ho
struck her a cruel blow on tho head and she
lapsed Into unconsciousness. It must havo
been about this tlmo that neighbors camo
running to the scene. Among them was
Mr. Olassmnn, who had been reading In
a front room. Thoy found Mrs. Glass
man lying unconscious on the, grass, a coat
over her head. It was very dark, but
those first to nrrlvo say they saw a dark
form running away and heard the rattle of
buggy wheels.
Tho police woro at onco notified and De
tectives Drummy and Mitchell were sent
out to Investigate. They aro still working
on tho case. Tho coat, a custom-mado
garment of shoddy gray material, is being
held at tho station as evidence. It would
lit a man of probably 220 pounds and very
broad across tho shoulders.
roller Arc InvontlKfilliiK.
Mrs. Classman was unconscious for two
hours after tho assault and is still suffer
ing from tho nervous shock. On tho back
of her head Is a lump mado by tho butt of
the man's pistol.
Mrs. Classman Is tho wlfo of J. H. Olass
mnn and tho mother of two small children.
A blondo, with a wealth of golden hair,
deop bluo eyes and a slender, girlish figure,
sho would genorally be considered hand
some and to this sho adds a pleasant ad
dress and a manner of easy self-possession.
Tho houso In which she lives Is Isolated,
being well toward tho top of tho Corby
etrcet hill. It Is a lonesome placo for a
woman to llvo without malo protectors
and as Mr. Classman's duties keep him
nway from home of nights a great deal, sho
Is alone, save for tho baby and a 6-year-old
son, most of tho tlmo. Still, sho can
not bear tho thought of moving, sho says,
ns It was In this houso that sho was born
and hero sho has spent her girlhood and
tho happiest, days of hor life.
Her maiden namo wa3 I'ape. Tho older
residents of tho quarter will remember
Papc, tho dairyman, as ho was known. In
the early days, when this portion of the
city was prairie, Tape's herd of cows
grazed on tho hlllBldo and llttlo Ellon
Papo herded them on her llttlo blazo-faced
pony. It was whllo thus engaged that sho
acquired such skill as a horsewoman. Sho
know no fear and was never so much at
homo as when In tho saddle, racing at
break-neck speed after some unruly
mllchcr.
ItrmlN 1,1 Uc Fiction.
"I first saw this man who has haunted mo
oil my llfo when I was about 10 years old,"
said Mrs. Olassmnn yestcrduy. "I was
attending school then at what was known
ns tho Omaha Vlow school, and I guess
twenty different times, aa I was returning
front i-chool, I saw sitting on a bank of
earth at what would now bo about Thirty
first and Corby streots a young man about
20 years of ago. I never knew his namo,
but noticed that ho was largo and of dark
complexion. Several times ho'spoko to mo,
always calling mo 'Ooldlo,' nnd 'Ooldlo' Is
the namo ho hns called mo by ever since
Ho called mo that oven as recently ns last
Saturday night. Ho Is tbo only person who
ever called mo that.
"Onco or twlco ho stopped mo nnd nskod
mo if I wouldn't go away with him, saying
ho would buy me a much tmndsomor pony
than 'the olio I had, and that all I would
hjivo to do would be to rldo and wear pretty
clothes. I told htm no, that I didn't know
him and that ho frightened mo. Thcro was
something sinister about tho man, somehow,
that made mo feel ltko running nway tho
moment I caught sight of his eyes.
"Onco ho chased mo for n block or more,
calling 'Ooldlo! Stop a mlnuto; I want to
talk to you!'
"I told my paronts about It when I got
homo nnd they seemed to nttnch little Im
portanco to It. 'Ho was probably someone
who wns trying to frighten you,' tboy said.
"Ouo night two of our cows wero missing
nnd I had to saddle my pony and help
nearch for them. It was qulto lato and
very dark when I stnrtcd homo. Suddenly,
ns I turned a clmrp corner to descend tho
nteep sldo of n bluff someone- seized my
pony by tho bits and I henrd a volco sny
'Ooldlol but I dug my heels Into tho
pony's sides, nnd sho gavo a great spring
down tho hill, Jerking the brldio out of
tho bands of tho man who held her. When
J recovered control of the pony, whleh wns
n very spirited animal, nil wns still nnd
lark bolilnd me, nnd tho man was nowhere
In sight.
Ilrcnitnlic IIt l'lirnnrr.
"I saw nothing of him nftrr that until two
yenrn ngo, when n mnu railed nt tho houso
hero and nskod If a fnmlly of tho namo of
Kcoson llvod In tho , neighborhood. The
mlnuto I sot my eyes on htm I recognized
him ns my old tlmo 'shndow.' but pro
tended not to. I told him I didn't know
anyone named Keeson.
" 'Say, I know you nil right,' was bla re
mark, 'and I think you must know mo.'
"I told him he was mistaken.
" 'Why,' sold he, 'you surely remember
the young wan who used to Bit on that
mound nnd wait for you to como homo
from school. Well, I'm thnt young man
nnd you nro Ooldlo. I tried to catch you
two or thrco times, didn't I? Yes, and I
was a fool that I didn't catch you. If I
had I'd bo a rich man today, for I'd have
got you a Job In tho circus as a bareback
rider, where you could have beaten tho
best of them,'
"Someone else called Just then and he
went awny.
"About a month later I had another ex
perience with htm. It was 8 o'clock In
the evening and ray husband was home, sit
ting In tho front room hero holt asleep, I
went Into the kitchen to close tho thuttris
'As I thrust my heart out of the window a
strong arm seized mo nbout tho neck and a
cloth was wrapped about ray bead and
across my mouth. I struggled, but couldn't
scream, being nearly smothered. Then I
felt that a llttlo phial of some kind was be
ing forced between my teeth. 1 closed uiy
Jaws suddenly, crushing tho glass, and
some of tho fluid ran Into my mouth.
"Then I heard my husband's chair move
on tho floor, and heard him running to
ward me. The little boy hero bad given the
alarm. Tho man heard It nt tho samo In
stant and ran away, When Mr. Olassman
reached me I had fainted, but there was the
cloth still hanging about my neck as proof
that what 1 had experienced was reality and
not tho figment of Imagination.
"This was reported to the police and the
next day Detective Jorgensen camo out
here. Together wo searched tho lawn for
traces of the Intruder, and ho found the
crushed phial. It still had omo of tho
poison In It. Wo had It analyzed and the
chemist said tho active principle was
laudanum, though thcro was something else
mixed with It, the name of which I forgot.
I know I suffered for two weeks from tho
effects of the small amount I took Into my
mouth.
"That was tho last I saw of the mysteri
ous stranger until last Saturday night. It
was so dark then that I didn't get n good
look at him, but I know It was the same
man for he called mo Oolillo as usual and
besides I recognized his voice. I would
know him If I saw him, though it was in a
crowd of a thousand people."

Tho watermelon market of Omaha is ex
periencing a novel condition nt this time
and buyers of tho finest looking fruit ore
receiving their goods with conditions nt
tnched. Tho trouble grows out of n large
shipment of melons from Illinois last week,
tho first shipment from that stato to this
market. Tho melons wero tho finest-looking
of any on tho market and Saturday there
wns a largo run upon them, In some enscs
premiums overruling prlco being offered.
A short time nfter the goods wero de
livered complaints began to como In. The
melons wero green. Not nn occasional
green melon, but every one was unripe.
Tho wholesale dealers tried at first to
mako good with other melons, but tbo
second lot was no bettor than tho first.
Then the condition was reported to the
shippers. Other towns reported similar
facts and tho growers immediately sent
Instructions to sell the melons on the
basis of futuro collections, ilpo ones only
to be paid for, nnd thus tho consignment
was sold.
The banana market Is In tho throes of
revolution, nr. a new method of selling
this fruit wan put into effect this morn
ing. The Fruit Dispatch company, which
controls tho output of bananas In this
country, has sent notice to all buyers that
from and nfter this date they will sell not
by bunches, but by weight. For this pur
poso weighers have been stationed nt New
Orleans and Mobile, tho principal ports of
entry for bananas In this country. They
will weigh each order, basing tho cost upon
tho net weight In enr lots. The present
designations of grades accordlngt to size
of bunch nnd quality, will bo preserved for
tho purposo of ordering, but for the price
they will bo obollshcd. Local Jobbers say
that for tho present at least thoy will sell
under tho old system, but will probably
cbnngo to tho new ns soon ns tho retail
dealer has become familiar with tho oper
ation. Thcro was a fair supply of vegetables cn
tho market yesterday nnd prices were
well maintained. Tho first Warden grapes
were offered, Boiling readily nt $23 per 100
baskets; hnlf-rlpo Concords sold nt half thU
prlco nnd wero In fair demand. Tho peach
market wns not very nctlvo, good Arkansas
Klbertas selling at $1.C0 per slx-bnskct
crate. Cantaloupes wero sold at 50 conts to
J1.G0 per dozen.
Cabbage holds tho head of tho list for
high prices, selling readily at 3V4 cents a
pound. Potatoes aro off somewhat, sales
being mado nt 00 cents to $1 per bushol.
Sweet potatoes aro quoted at $1.75 with a
premium for oxccptlonnlly fine stock and n
discount for damaged goods.
Tho market for spring chickens Is higher
this season than ever before known nt this
time of tho year. Packers aro paying U
to 12 cents n pound for stock and rctallcri
are paying from that prlco to 1G cents a
pound lor select stock. The scarcity of
spring chickens Is occasioned, sny tho deal
ers, by the fact thnt In the spring egg pack
ers paid unprecedented prices for eggs and
poultry raisers sold their eggs instead of
sotting them.

There Is a congestion of steam coal In
Omnha nnd dealers In thut commodity nro
at a loss to know what to do with tho largo
quantities being consigned to Omaha
branches by the mining eotnpanlcH.
The congestion In Btcnm coal Is tho result
of nn Increased demand for lump coal. Tho
pulverized coal Is a by-product nnd whrn
there Is a demand for lump coal tho output
of the other Increases regardless of tho
demand nnd for several weeks, on account
of tho starting of tho threshing season
thcro hat been a greatly Increased demand
for lump coal, ThrcshcrB cannot uso the
steam coal for fuel because of Its liability
to produce sparks, as with steam coni
furnaces must bo run to their utmost
capacity In order to produco heat. For this
reason nnd becnuse of tho grentcr case In
handling, the lump coal Is alwoys demanded
by tho operntors of threshing machines.
Local mnnagers of coal companies nro
now trying to make contracts for future
delivery of steam coal to get rid of the

them aro making rates which aro not war

Many hair preparations arc "fako" be
cause they aro merely scalp Irritants. They
often cause a dryness, making tho hair
brlttlo nnd finally lifeless. Dandruff is tho
causo of all trouble with hair. It is a

germ disease. The germ makes ctiticio
scales as it digs to tho root of tho hair,
where It destroys the hair a vitality, caus

tho germ must bo killed. "Destroy tho

the damage to corn not so bad as repcrtcd.
Thero Is ono thing sure and thnt Is tlat
thero has been a great Improvement In ihe
condltlou of tho corn crop since tho last
government bulletin on that subject."
F. 12, Sanborn, who was In Marshall
county, Iowa, last week ndds his observn
Hons, saying: "Whllo In Mnrshnlltown I
took a drlvo Into tho country, examining
tho fields as wo passed along. I talked to
many of tho farmers nnd according to the
estimates nindo by them nnd my observa
tion I would place the yield of Marshall
county this year at thirty bushels to fo
aero. Crops In tho vicinity of Marshall
town havo appreciated greatly since the
report Issued by tho United States De
partment of Agriculture In August wns pre
pared. There Is ono feature of tho cm
rrop this season which hns been lost sight
of nnd that is tho Into spring. Farmers did
not plant for weeks after tho usual tlmo
nnd generally corn wns not advanced as far
ns usunl at the samo tlmo or tho year.
This has proved the solvation of many
fields ns tho grain wns not glazed nnd the
rains of early August Increased the
growth."
C. H. Iddlngs, tho North PIntto lumber
man, In a letter to Omaha corrcspondenls,
sings prnlse for Irrlgntlon. He writes tint
in tho Irrigated districts nround his homo
tho corn crop wns never so large as this
year. The burning suns which parched nnd
killed tho corn in the sections whero wntcr
wns senrco brought the vegctntlon to the
i greatest perfection whero It received plenty
1 .. f (PL ' . . . . i i i .
of moisture. Tho farmers of tho irrigated
sections, tho writer says, will bo ready to
sell corn to their less fortunate comrades
of tho "corn belt" at prices high enough to
mako up for the cost of Irrigation for
several seasons.
