Elkhorn Refuses to Give Up
Eddie England's Form.
DISTRACTED FATHER GAVE UP ,
Fearing That the Current Has Car
ried the Corpse For Down the
Stream , the Searching Has Boon
Practically Abandoned.
[ From Tuesday's Dally. ]
The body of 17-year-old Eddlo Eng-
laud , who swam into his death Sunday
evening , just south of the city on
Fourth struct , in the Elkhorn river , and
for whom a constant searching was
kept up all through the hours of yester
day , has i ot boon located and hopes of
finding the form of the lad have almost
been given up.
The distracted father of the watnr't
victim , who arrived in thn city at noon
yesterday , was nearly crazed over the
sudden loss of his boy the boy that hd
loft home only a few days ago in perfect
health , cheerful and happy , aud whose
body , after losing its lifo at merry play ,
had boon carried away by the pitiless
current of the river which seemed to
unfeelingly and even with glee , shut oil
the breath of lifo from youtig Eddie
Englaud.
This morning , nearly insane with
grief , the tli j noted fa'hor took a seat in
an out-going train and returned to his
homo iu Omuhi , to take the n' ' ws to a
heartbroken mother , who had been
Awaiting for hours to have the dead body
of her boy brough himo. Last night.
at the depot hotel , whore the lad had
been employed and .where the father
lodged , Mr. Eng nud was completely
overcome and uctud in the wierd man
ner of a madman.
AH day yesterday the river was
dragged by men iu boats , with great
iron grappling hooks , and by excellent
swimmers , who dived to the sandy bottom
tom for any trace of a human form
This failing , dynamite was exploded in
the stream , with the hope that the life
less remains might bo sent to the sur
face , but the selfish Elkhorn refused to
give up the corpse that it held tightly
within its powerful grip.
Finally , along toward dusk when the
failing light made further search im
possible , the score of men on the river's
hank were compelled to quit their ef
forts and to leave unaccomplished the
hopeful purpose of the morning. Aud
so , with the bereft father in their midst ,
the little group of tireless workers came
away , with nothing of the remains of
Eddie England except the clothing
which ho had worn Sunday afternoon
and which , in the careles ) fashion of a
youth eager to get into the water anx
ious for a first dip had been left in
differently upon the shore until the
wearer should return.
It is highly probiblo that the raging ,
swollen current has carried the limp
frame far down the stream , where , in
days to come , it may float to the sur
face , or where , perhaps , it may cling to
some protruding underbrush and remain
indefinitely hidden.

Drowning Didn't Bother Them.
[ From Tuesday's Dally. ]
While strenuous efforts were being
made yesterday morning to recover the
body of Eddie England , who had
drowned in the Elkhorn on the previous
evening , two little follows on the bank
were watching the work. For an hour
or so they looked at the man who was
diving about in the terrible current ,
and.then , tiring of the sight , one of
them got up off the ground , shook him
self and said , "Come on , Bob , let's go
in. " Bob was willing , and the pair of
them went around the bend , at exactly
the spot where the boy whoso body was
not yet recovered , had gone to his
death but a few hours before , and
they there piled their clothes in a heap
and "dipped. "

tened to the recital of Charles Williams ,
of Bofltont at the First Congregational
church last evening. The entertain

auditors and extracts from "Tho Real
Diary of a Real Boy" completed the
half hour of effervescent humor.
Mr. Williams has been the guest of

ELKHORN STILL HOLDS BODY ,
The Form of Eddie England Has Not
Yet Been Discovered.
[ From Wednesday's Dally. ]
The muddy Elkhorn still holds the
form of Eildio Englaud , who was
drowned Sunday evening , within it's
waters , hidden way from the surface.
The wire catch that was placed below
the First Htreot bridge has not yet served
the purpose of bringing the body to
light , and it is feared that tlio swift
current has carried it far down stream.
With no clothing to catch in under
brush or snags , it is not nt all unlikely
that the boy , if the current caught him
right at the start , may have floated
many miles before this. No doubt tlio
remains will bo one day recovered , ns
the river , at ordinary times , is very
shallow and it hardly seems probable
that a human form would remain for
ever in it , undiscovered.
COLD WAVE CAME LAST NIGHT ,
True to Prediction , Chilly Air Has
Brought Out Heavy Wraps.
[ From Wednesday's Dally. ]
True to the prophecy of the weather
man , Norfolk got n drop in temperature
last night that has brought vests to the
form of the negligee man , and made
heavy fall capes no uncommon sight
upon the streets today. Tho'.barometor in
dicated 80.14 inches this morning , which
is high and which accounts for the chilly
atmosphere. The night was ton degrees
away from freezing , the minimum
point on the thermometer being 42.
The high pressure will probably remain
for another day , as the prediction is for
fair weather , neither warmer nor
colder.
Entertained at Tea.
