A strange case of fatal poisoning
occurred at Seward last week. S. II.
Volts and wife and Miss Emma Glad wish
had eaten heartily of oat meal porridge
for breakfast, and in a 6hort tiifus there
after was taken violently ill. Physicians
were called and the patients found in an
alarming condition, suffering from arsen
ical poison. The doctors were satisfied
that arsenic in some way got into the oat
meal, and upon investigation were con
vinced that it came from the paper on
the ceiling of the kitchen, in the manu
facture of which arsenic is used in large
quantities. The cooking had been done
on a gasoline stove, and the steam from
the stoye had settled on the walls and
ceiling until the entire room was drip
ping wet, and it is believed that a surlic
lenfTquantity of this poisonous water got
into the oat meal aad prod ucedthe results

CLEAN CUT CROOKEDNESS.
Charley Johnson Cone To A More
Congenial Climate. He Takes
All His Wife's money But $3
And Skips-
For various reasons we have kept back
the facts known, perhaps, te most of our
readers, in regard to the sudden disap
pearance of Charlie Johnson last Sunday
evening. It appears that Johnson had
told his wife that he was going to Omaha
to work in a wholesale establishment and
that he would write to her as soon as set
tled, but he failed to tell his employers.
(Johnson Brus., hardware merchants),
that he had any idea of leaving them.
Monday morning young Johnson failed
to put in his appearance, and on investi
gation they found he had left his wife
sick in bed with but three dollars, lie
took with him $ 270, In cash, belonging
to his wife. He leaves several creditors
behind, among them being C. E. Wescott,
who holds a bill for a suit of clothes,
and F. II. Carrutli for a gold watch, lie
also took from the show case, in Johnson
Bros." store, two Smith fc Wesson revol
vers and a bowio knife. There is noth
ing known yet as to his whereabouts but
it is bupposed he has gone to the far
west to join with the cow boys. It will
be remembered that he wore a cowboy
hat and seemed to be inclined that wav.
A Pleasant parfy.
A progressive euchre party at the home
of Miss Hattie Latham last evening is
reported a3 a highly interesting and
agreeable affair. There were present Mr.
and Mrs. James Donnelley, the Misses
Hermann, Liyingston, Fulmer, Wayman.
Wise, Mia and Fdr-?a Goring, Anderson
Sherman, Patterson and Murphy, and lUa
and Messrs. Livingston, Moore. Patter
son. Gering, Root, Cutright, Murphy and
Cliatburn. After playing eleven g.inies
it wa9 found that Miss Edna Gering had
taken the ladies' first prize, and Miss
Herrmann the ladies' booby prize. Among
the gentlemen the king prijee was a, tie
between Messrs. Matt. Gering and Geo.
R. Chatburn, while the gent's booby
prize tied between Messrs. Fred Murphy
and Lew Moore. To decide the draw n
final game was played by the gentlemen
with whom the tie fell and Mr. Chatburn
came out possesser of the gent's king
prize and Lew Moore carried off the boo
by prize. After the deciding of the
game refreshments were served and the
evening's entertainment concluded with
dancin g.
Still After trie Herolds
The deputy Sheriff of Lancaster coun
ty, arrived in this city yesteuday with
warrants for the arrest of Wm. Herold
and his brother, Herman Herold. They
were arrested last evening and taken to
L:ncolu where tbey will probably have
their preliminary hearing today.
We understand the Herold's arc charg
ed with complicity in the defrauding of
C. G. llerold'a creditors and with con
cealing some of the property.
Constable Al Beach returned from
Plattsmouth last night with William and
Herman Herold and Mrs. Herman Herold,
who are '.charged with "complicity with
Christian G. Herold jn defrauding his
creditors of $20,000 in Februay of 1885.
This is the case in which Christian Herold
was sentenced to the penitentiary, and
these charges will open the old case again.
The arrests were made under a warrant
issued from Police Judge Whitmorc upon
the complaint of Frank West, represen
tative of a collecting agency. The pris
oners will be in charge of Constable
Beach until this n.ornjng, when the case
will be called in polfcc court. M. A.
Hartigan of Plattsmouth, attorney for
the Herolds, accompanied the party to
this citv. fiiate Journal.
Mr. Thurston Accepts.
Immediately after the Hon. A. J. Pop
plelon handed in his resignation as
general attorney of the Union Pacific
road, the position was offered to the
Hon. John M. Thurston, who gave notice
yesterday of his acceptance and he will
make an effr.it to relieve Mr. Poppleton
about the l&t of February.
Wants a Placo to Stay.
Last evening a young man, George
Wilson by name, took a pair of boots
from the sign in front of Ben Elson's and
slyly putting them under his coat was
making good his escape when he raa in
to the arms ot Marshal Malick, who it
.seems had his eye on the young man.
lie was arraigned this morning before
Judge Mathews where he plead not guilty
to the charge of petit larceny. He was
found guilty however, and on the recom
mendation of County Att'y Beesou the
sentence was light, receiving f 10 and
costs, amounting in all to $19.00. Not
having sufficient to pay out, he goes to
jail.
Burglars About.
Burglars made an effort last sight to
gain entrance to the residence of S.
Waugh, on the corner of Oak and Ftfth
streets. It was between ten and eleven
o'clock and the family and guests had
just retired in the sleeping apartments up
stairs, excepting Mr. Waugh'sson Robert,
a lad of about twelve who slept on the
first floor. Shortly after retireiug Robt.
was frightened by a noiee at the cellar
door and immediately gave the alarm of
burglars, arousing the family but driving
the outside parties away. Mr. llelican,
a nephew of Mr. Waugh, saw three men
mnning westward from the house imme
diately after the alarm. The marshal
was notified as soon as possible but failed
to find trace of the men, further than
their tracks arftuqd the house.

About forty-two gibbering idiots
have come into the JtnterprtsQ office
since the past cold snap and the number
of times we have realized that this is a
cold hollow world of disappointment is
telling on even our iron clad, copper
bottomed constitution. The aforesaid
idiot usually comes in with a smiling
look of intelligence or philanthropic de
sign depicted on his countenance and we
can not expect anything less than a great
big local or a paid up subscription in ad
vance, and he always waits u.otil we get
out our note book or subscription list,
when he braces up and perpetrates the
stale chestnutty chestnut of all chestnuts.
"Is this cold enough for youf" We sold
ten cents worth of old papers the other
day for cash, and we have invested the
proceeds in an eighteen pound stuffed
club, and we are going to assasinate the
first pleasant looking fellow that comes
in the office and ask him his business
afterward if we get hung for an anarch
