H. E. OWEN 8UQQE8T8 AN EXCEL.
LENT PLAN FOR NORFOLK.
WOULD IMPROVE FIRST STREET
Dy Mnklng a Good Gravel Rondwny
Along First Street From Norfolk
Avenue to Junction , Heavy Pulling
and Muddy Driving Would be Elim
inated.
A gravel tlrlvo along First street
from Norfolk avomio to tlio Jiuicllun
will Botvo the problem of muddy trips
between the Northwestern main line
railroad station and the cltj , accordIng -
Ing to II. H. OWIMI. Ihu well known
railroad bull li l Norfolk , who IH
very mncb Inti'ivHtod In Norfolk and
particularly In this regard. Coming
from a man of Mr. OWOII'H oxporlonco
nlouR these llni'H , the suggestion will
probably have weight with people of
the city and It Is more than likely
that the graveled roadway , hnllt after
Mr. Owen's suggested plans , may be
come a reality If the proposition moots
approval In Norfolk.
Mr. Owen suggests that gravel be
hauled Into First street ( rom two miles
In the country , and that a bed of the
lltUo stones bo spread from First
street to the Junction In a path about
fourteen feet wldo wldo enough for
hacks to pass In and that It range
from a depth of a foot at the center
down to a feather odgo.
The Cost.
"Tho coat of building such a grnvol
roadway , " said Mr. Owen , "would bo
much Ions than the ordinary person
might suppose. I am Bnro that $ GOO
would go a long way to build such a
roadway. Hack In Illinois , where I
came from , they haul gravel for this
purpose for eight or nlno miles , whllo
hero wo could get It by hauling only
two nnd a half. The way to do It
would bo for the city council to moas
tire the street , got the distance In feet ,
determine how many yards of gravel
would bo needed to make the drive
way and then lot the Job to the lowest
responsible blddor. In this way you
would know Just liow much money It
would cost before you started.
"And this money could bo easily
raised In Norfolk. There Is not a
business man In town who would not
contribute , the hackmen and livery
men would contribute , Madison county
would spend a llttlo money hero to
Improve this county road and the city
of Norfolk could put a llttlo of Its
street money hero.
The Effect.
"Tho effect would bo a permanent
driveway that could bo used every day
In the year , regardless of snow or
rain , and without oven getting your
buggy wheels muddy. As It Is todaj
there Is no driveway from the Junc
tion up town that can bo nsod In mud
dy weather like this to any degree of
satisfaction. The muddy rends , mak
ing slow traveling , arc an eyesore to
strangers who arrive In the city. It
hurts the town. Under the now plan
If It Is carried out , you can trot a
team of horses down that drive an >
day of the winter or summer.
"UacK in Illinois wo llvcu twelve
miles from town but on the muddlosi
day In the year wo could hitch up am
trot our teams to town without gottlnt ,
a spot of mud on the buggy , Just be
cause wo had these gravel driveways
"Thoro nio plenty of workmen In
Norfolk with teams who could go to
work on the road. Lot the contrac
to someone who Is reliable. I am no
interested in this for any motives o
trying to get business , for I sbouldn *
oven bid on the Job , but I would car
nestly like to see a good road. Whoi
the people saw what an Improvomon
It was , It would not bo long before
they would have the same kind o
streets all over the town.
"A hack man would bo glad to pa >
a good contribution to save wear 01
his horses and wear and tear on his
cabs. 1 would give $10 and $20 If need
od. Norfolk business men will glvo
enough money if the question Is properly
orly put. "

BARBER WHO ABANDONED HIS
WIFE IS BOUND OVER.
PITIFUL COURT ROOM SCENE
Shamefully Abused Young Wife Weeps
When Her Husband , Who Has Prov
en Himself a Beast , Is Sent Behind
the Bars Took Her Last Penny.
John J. McGuire , the barber who
was arrested and brought back from
Madison on the charge of abandoning
and neglecting his wife without good
cause , pleaded not guilty In Justice
Lambert's court yesterday afternoon
and was bound over to district court
in the sum of $200. Falling to furnish
the bond , McGulro was locked up in
'
jail.
The court room spectacle was a pit
iful one. As n witness against him ,
McGulro's young wlfo , who is in a
delicate condition and whom he mar
ried under protest at Fremont a few
weeks ago , appeared In the court room.
And , In spite of the evidence which
was brought out against McGuire , who
was shown to bo ns despicable a brute
as over walked the streets of Norfolk ,
his wife broke down and crlod piteously -
ly when Judge Lambert announced
that ho would have to go to Jail.
Took Her Last Penny.
It was shown in the testimony that
McGulro had not only rulnod the life
of the young woman and then aban
doned her ; but ho had also , in spite of
her condition nnd her dependence
upon him , gene to her Just before ho
lied from the city , borrowed from her
the last $8 that she owned in the
world , promised to call later In the
day to see her and then boarded a
train and loft In an effort to make his
getaway.
When Judge Lambert sent McGuire
to jail , the characterless brute took
the matter with a brazen face and filed
out of doors with nn officer , only to
bo met by a crowd of Infuriated men
who said later that all that would have
been necessary for them to do violence
lence to the wretch would have been
a leader.
Was Loyal a Day.
Further testimony Introduced showed
that McGulro had , after marrying the
young woman , remained loyal to his
wedding vow a single day. They were
married In Fremont March G and went
to Omaha the next day. Hero Mc
Gulro loft the young woman nt the
Drexel hotel , only paid a portion of
her board bill , and disappeared. Her
incle found that she had boon thus
lesertod , paid the remainder of hoi
ill ! and paid her faro to Norfolk. Ho
gave her $1(5 ( to help her along In this
city In Incidental ways that she might
need , and of this she had used $7
when McGulro called Tuesday after
noon and took the other $8 from her.
A Modest , Attractive Girl.
The abandoned wife of the barber
was timid and modest In the court
room yesterday and felt vexed nnd em
barrassed by the eyes of men that
wore fastened upon her , though she
was treated with great consideration
ly the throng In the courtroom. She
s an attractive looking young woman
if delicate features and timid ways.
After ( lie trial , she begged to ho al
lowed to talk to McOuIro but her
pleadings were rebuffed by him. "I
don't want to talk to her , " he said.
Ono of the excuses that McGulro
made for not supporting her was that ,
ho couldn't. Testimony showed , however -
over , that ho received ? f > 0 per month
or more for his work and the court
thought he ought to bo able to sup
port his wlfo out of this money. His
employer testified that his wiges av
eraged $ G5.
Mrs. McGulro Is still under Madison
county's care.

A HOLE IN THE JAIL WALL
Some One Had Dug Through the Wall
Before Donnr Attempted to Escape.
Thrilling Experience In the West.
Bullet Through His Body.
Nellgh , Neb. , March 28. Special to

: urnod last night from Spokane , Wash.
Jigton , with Frank Donnor , wanted
icro for breaking Jail last December.
The sheriff was away from homo but
a few hours more than a week , and
Donner came to Nebraska without the
formality of n requisition. .
In talking to a News reporter this
morning ho says that ho did not make
the hole In the prison wall through
which ho escaped on the 17th of December -
comber , but that the hole had been
made by some one who was there
ahead * of him. All ho had to do waste
to remove an iron bar and lift out
some loose brick that were In the wall
and go through. He left the Jail be
tween 12 and 1 o'clock In the daytime ,
walked down the street and out Into
the country. There he overtook a boy

the constable turned on Frank and
shot at him four times without effect ,
but Frank ran and after he had gone
a block the constable plugged him ono
In the back , the ball passing clear
through his body and taking away a
