CANVASSERS CAUGHT Man Who Assaulted Mrs. Soennlch sen Is Under Arrest. Gives ills Name as John K. Longan and Enters a Plea of Mot Guilty Is Mak ing an Effort to Get Security Fiom the Iloune He Represents. From Wednesday's Daily. When Chief of Police Slater read the account in THE News of a young canvasser insulting Mrs. H. M. Soen- nichsen be immediately set about to bring the young man into court. He was found shortly before noon and taken to the home of Mrs. Soennich sen, who immediately identified the young man as the one who had been nt her home yesterday afternoon, and, upon her refusing to purchase the b acKboaro for which he was canvas ic g, in-u teil hfr. lie was taken be f Po Ju'tg- Archer and com plaint w ! 8-ru i'U' fy II M So". ni hen. charging him wiih distuib ing the pe'tce by assaulting Mrs. Soen nichsen. He entered a plea of not guilty and the hearing was set for tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock. The young man gave' his name as John It. Logan. II'S bail was placed at $100 and he offered strenuous objec tions to going to jail, asking permis sion to remain in his room until the hearing. Chief Slater informed him that he would either have to put up the security or go to jail. He tele graphed to the house he represented for the necessary money with which to make the security good, but at the time of going to press no response had been received. He will probably lan guish in the county bastile until to morrow. TWELVE NEW LOCOMOTIVES. Order For w Engines From the Have lock .Shop Increased. Workmen in the Havelock shops are now'engaged in the construction of eight engines for the use of the Burlington system. Material for these engines has arrived, and is now being worked into shape at the shops, says the State Journal. The order for eight engines has been added to by orders just received to build four more, and the material for the addi tional four engines is expected to ar rive soon. Discussing this work an official of the Burlington who is in terested in the construction of the new locomotives says: "There is nothing in the oft repeated assertion that the Burlington can build belter engines at the Havelock .hops or any other shops than it can buy. The fact is that an engine purchased in the east is criti cised by our shop men, and we hear of every defect and short-coming, while ac eugino turned out by the company's shops is never criticised, and we never hear of its defects. "The system of piece work now in stalled at the Havelock shops enables the company to build good engines for less than it can buy them in the east. )' we had to pay our men by the hour or by the day we could not build engines at Havelock. Of course it is wall to be loyal to home indus tries, and to brag about our own good wo-k. This is all right, but there 13 no question about the quality of loco motives. It is unreasonable to sup pose that locomotives can be built in railroad shops belter than they can In fcbops where locomotive building is the specialty." The estimated cost of these engines is about $10,000 each. Of this amount about. $4,i KX) is expended for material and $S,000 for labor, making ihe total amount of the estimate for labor on tbe twelve engines about $72,000. The placii g of this amount in the hands of tha laborer at Havelock means con siderable to that village and to Lin co' n. There has been delay in getting material for this work. The great demand for boiler iron made it im possible to secure that material as or dered. Enough is now on hand to push the work on the eight engines first ordered. RAILROAD JiOTES AND PERSONALS Sam Fletcher of the Burlington blacksmith shop has returned to work after a month's lay off. lie bas been having very poor health and took a trip to Colorado to see if that climate would not help him, but it did not seem tc do him much good. William Webb, who removed with his family to Iowa about three months ago, has returned and will again go to work in the Burlington shops and make Plattsmouth his home.

At 5:30 o'clock this afternoon a man by the name of "Shorty" Wilson committed an assault on the seven-year-old daughter of A. W. Burchard, a promi nent merchant of this city. The deed was committed in a barn In the rear of the premises, the assailant gagging his victim with a corn cob. The little girl gave the alarm and officer began to search for the wretch I and in a short time located him in Schoenhelt's saloon on. South Stone I street. lie was taken at on e to me . . . I Burchard residence and identified by I his victim. As the officers lead him I to the county jail, a large crowd fol- lowed, headed by the father of the girl. A rope was produced, but before it could be used Wilson was placed behind the bars. The most intense excitement pre vails and c w s f m n tm 'ini' on th- -t' ts d. cu.-tr? i g in, in titer ami a .yi cuing in not improbable. Wilson is a comparative stranger here. MOB MAKES A CALL ON WILSON. Administers Punishment to the Man Who Assaults a Girl. Falls City, Neb., Aug. 23. About 1 o'clock ibis morning a mob of about I one bundled men went to the county I jail, broke the lock of the outer door I and gained entrance to the cell occu pied by George Wilson, the man who assaulted the Burchard girl, and per- I formed a surgical operation on him. The work was evidently pe formed by experienced hands. The crowd of determined men immediately dis persed and so quietly was the work done that the people living near the! jail knew nothing -of it until this morniog. In the evening small crowds congregated on every corner and talked in low tones and many ex pected a lynching before morning. Some of the leading citizens are said to have taken part. The victim has been here but a short time and was employed as handy man about Sboenheit's saloon. Yes terday afternoon he was attending to Shoenheit's horses at the barn in the rear of A. W. Burchard's residence. Several children were playing about the barn and Wilson sent 3everaKof them to the hay loft to throw down some hay. In the meantime he ac complished hie purpose on the 7-year-old child of A. W. Burchard. It is the first instance of this nature that has ever taken place in this city. He . . . , , - , A talrAn a pnrn nrH find ppmnvpll the I ..ex. .onuu - " T I .v, ith -hinh h ckvmA thhild, The child was badly but not danger ously injured. After the deed was committed Wilt-on went back to the saloon and made no attempt to escape. He was identified by the little girl and afterwards confessed. Things are quiet about town this morning and no one has any fault to find with the work done. TELEGRAPHIC Hit IK I 8. Boston's Porto Rican fund reaches $19,250.

Pleasant cemetery, fourteen miles southwest or town, where they were laid at rest be side those of her husband, a large con course of people following tbe remains to their last resting place. TORPEDO BOAT TRAGEDY. Sad Illustration of th Danrer of This Service . The Union squadron investing Charleston during the civil war was drawing closer and closer to the doom ed place. One of the warships that lay closest inshore was the Housatonic, and that vessel was selected as the torpedo boat's victim. The Portland Transcript tells the tragic story: The evening of Feb. 17, 1S65, closed in raw and foggy. At 8 o"clock Capt. Corison gave the command and the boat drop ped down the river. As the clocks were striking the hall hour In the city the little craft pulled over the bar. Noiselessly she gilded through the water, guided by the lights on the Housatonic, for which she beaded. So heavy was the fog that she escaped the notice of the sentries. At a quar ter to nine she lay directly In front of the Housatonic, at a distance of five hundred yards. She was running faster now, and a little farther on she began to submerge. Two hundred yards more and she disappeared. Five minutes later thers was a dull roar, and th waer arourd the Houtonlc boiled like a caldron. The ncle ship gave a mighty upward heave and then be- . . a W V gan to settle. E.n??gn nazieiuu &nu four sailors who were below perished, but fortunately for the rest of the crew the water was shallow and they saved themselves by climbing into the rig ging. The vessel was a total loss, but the submarine torpedo boat was no where to be found. Two years after the war, when the wreckage was being removed from Charleston harbor, the Housatonic was raised. In her hull there was a ghastly wound, inflicted by the torpedo, and In that hole was tbe torpedo boat with every man on board still at his post, where he had died years before. The little boat had torn a big hole in the cruiser, through which the water had poured in Buch a volume that the torpedo Doat was drawn into It. And there its crew died of suffocation. In the grasp of tne en emy which they had destroyed. A Younger Son's Success. From the. Springfield "Republican: The case of a younger son is usually pitied In England, but there was i noble exception in the case of the fam lly of the late Earl of Mansfield, who died worth some 15,700.000. Viscount Stormont, the father of the first Earl . r a -, ... . . . i ui wamueia, me great judge, was one J of the poorest lords in Scotland, and "as poor as a Scottish lord" has long been a by-word in England. This younger son, William Murray, born in 170i' one of a family of twelve penni less children., rode off to London on hla pony to attend Westminster school, and never, it Is said, saw his native land again, but he left an earldom and a vast fortune to his eldest brother's heir. The earl who recently died was the fifth of the title, and the sixth earl is bis brother. To trade An upright piano for work horses. Inquire at ; News office for particulars. CITY AND. COUNTY.
