A SENSATION , Arrest of the Supposed John Bender , Jr. , and Wife in this City. They Prove to be the Wrong Parties and are Dis charged. Quito a sensatioa was created in town yesterday by the arrest of a parly supposed to be John Bender , Jr. , and his family. It was a little after 9 o'clock , when -wagon answering very much the description of the Bender rig , was stopped ia front of Cuming'a auction store. It was drawn by a gray horse and a bay mule and its oc cupants were a ra'her young-looking man and hs wife and three children. Except that the family were so dark as to nearly resemble negroes they might easily have been mi-taker for the murderous gang now wanted so badly. They attracted the atten tion of Mr , Brings , who keeps a fruit stand on the comer opposite , from their resemblance , to the description Civen in Tun UKB last evening , and he quietly sent for the city marshal who sailed down with visions of golden re wards dazzling his brain. The outfit was taken charge of and the suspected persons taken to the city marshal's office where they were inter rogated by Judge Hawes. They said they came from Johnson county , Kan sas , last year , crossed the Missouri at Omaha and went to Minnesota , and recently returned via Sioux City and Nebraska City , and were now en route - to Illinois. They had been accompanied panied by the man's father-in law to this point where they parted , the latter going to Sioux City. They were soon discharged and shook the dust of the city from oil' their feet as fast as they could. As they went down Farnsm street a number of persons remarked the resemblance to the Bender outSt , and they will probably be hauled up a dozen times on their route through o Iowa. They are believed to be regu- o lar gypsies. , .

WILLIS M. YATES. II Our News \Vua Reliable. , There has been considerable talk since the publication of an article in THE BKK recently on the subject of hotels and other contemplated im provements , and a good deal nf curi- (1 ositv expressed as to who our mform- ant was. That ho knew whereof ho n spoke is evidenced by the fact that al ready the first steps have been taken towards the erection of thu noWCath- n olic seminary for the ladies of the Sa- crcd Heart , which was mentioned . among other prospective improve- raents. The land purchased for this purpose was a tract jol about thirty acres in Park Place and Lowe's second 0 addition , the sale of which was made through Bcmis1 real estate agency to Bishop O'Connor and Creightou uni versity. The property is bounded by Gaming street on the north , Kennedy street on the east , Pleasant street on the west , and what will some day be , Cass street on the south. A large state Ca'holi : female seminary is to bo erected on the property to cost in the vicinity of § 35,000 to § ' 10,000 , which , will bo built by the bishop , and . , Creighton college will make other solici improvements. j.

EEHMEDT DWYER , A Wedding at St. Philomena , About 1:30 : yesterday several carriages drove quietly down to St. Philomena'a cathedral , not so quietly , however , as to escape the eye of a BEE reporter , who dropped into a back seat and beheld the nuptial ceremo nies which united Mr. Martin W. Kennedy and Miss Belle D\vjer. Fe\v except the parties nterested and their intimate friends mew of the affair , and when this tern is read the happy couple will bea lying across the great state of Iowa to the St. Lawrence and the watering places of the east. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Bather English ; the attendants were Mr. Thomas TaJlon and Miss Mary Dwyer , sister of the bride. At the conclusion of the ceremony the party drove to the residence of Mr. Kennedy , corner of 17th and Jackson streets , where a reception was given the invited guests , who sat down to partake of a wedding feast worthy of a prince. The table was loaded with every delicacy the market could afford. A pyramid of fruit rose from then center of the table to tha height of four feet , and was composed of puri pie grapes , golden pears , blushing peaches and other rich fruits of the season. These were flanked by elegant wedding cakes and the musical popi pop of champaign corks alone interrupted - rupted the hum of conversation. At 3:30 : the bride and groom were driven to the depot , where they look the , iain for the east. They go to hicago via the C. & N. W. , and rrorn thence to Toronto. From there they go by steamer down the St. Law rence to Montreal , and after a visit to that city , to New York , Boston , Long Island and Manhattan Beach. The tour will occupy six or seven weeks' time , and at its close Mr. and Mrs. Kennedy will return and be gin housekeeping at occa at the com fortable residence named above. Among the wedding guests was Mrs. Kennedy , mother of the groom , who oirao out from Brooklyn , N. . Y. , a few weeks ago to visit her son. There were a large number of presents , both useful and valuable , which the late ness of the hour alone prevents enu merating. Our best wishes go with the happy couple whoso union takes place under such favorable auspices. PERSONAL , PARAGRAPHS Capt. Marsh wont west yesterday. E. O. L. Edholm , returned to St. Paul Monday.

Monday morning ono of the most oold < blooded murders which have oc- cured in eastern Iowa ior some years put took place in Norwalk Township the victim being one Owen McKay who , at that time of his death , was working on the farm of Mr. August Anderson. From what can be learned of the affair it appears that early yes terday morning McKay was sent by Mr. Anderson to got some cattle out of ha field. He was mounted on a hor-e and when ready to return homo he started through a lane on Radigan's farm , occupied by Michael and Patrick R-idigan for whom McKay had formerly worked. This lane was often used by Mr. Anderson. At the head 1 of the lane ho was met by Mike Radigan , who refused him admittance to the lane. The two here got into a quarrel , and both Mike and Patrick Radigan ] jumped on young McKay , and pounded him terriMy. Radigan , when he saw McKay approaching the lane ] , remarked that lw was going to I pivo "that cuss a good lick ing. i " He met him and caught the i horse with one hand and Mc Kay ; with the other , endeavoring to pull } him off. Uwen was getting the best of the fight when Mike called to his brother Pat to come , whereupon Pat proceeded to the scene on ft run. The lighting men then separated for a moment or two and then cim- menced fighting again , when Pat Rad igan took a hand and assisted Mike. McKay , it is said , got up andat'empt- ed to run and ran about twenty feat and fell to the ground. Mr. Ander son , McKay's employer , who was standing near , ran to McKay and found him dead. Ho picked him up carrying him to his house and found his face badly bruised , with a gash across the temple ono inch in length and from one-half to threo-quarteis of an inch deep. Depu'y ' Sheriff Clatterbuck , of Council Bluffs , happened to bo a pas senger 011 the outgoing Rock Island train yesterday morning , and when the train reached Weston he was in formed of the murder and stopped off. Ho proceeded to the farm occupied by Michael and Pattick Radigan , and af ter 1 arning that theirvict m had died from injuries received at their hands , he at once arrested both men and brought them to Council Bluffs , reach ing there shortly before 4 o'clock. When arrested the Radigans claimed to bo ignorant of the death of McKay , but made no resistance and accom panied the officer without objection. A large number if exc.ted peiaons were rapidly gathering on the farm where the murder occurred , and ifc is probable that the Radigana feared vi- pleuce and wore glad enough to get into the bands of the officer. A jury was impanelled and brought in a verdict that Owen McKay came to his death from wounds inflicted by Patrik and Michael Radignn. Both are held for trill without bail. Grand Excursion. There will bo an excursion from Omaha to Neligh , Antelope county , Neb. , on the -1th of August ( nest Wednesday ) . Neligh is the western terminus of the S.jO. & P. B. K , and it will rc.nain BO for sorno years/ The excursion train willleavo the Omaha it Northwestern depot atO a. m. , and wiil arrive at Neligh by 1:30 : p.m. , returning the same evening. Parties wishing to stop .over can leave Nuligh the following "day. Fare for the round trip is ? 5.15 about one-fourth of the regular rate. There will be an auction sole of lots in the town of Neligh on that day. This will afford our business men a good opportunity "to look up the advantages of Antelope county. The census gives it n popu lation of1000 souls , most of whom have emigrated there within the past year. Noligh is the principal town in that section , and is the starting point of the government freight lines to the northwest. The whole Niobrara cat tle region is tributary to Neligh , and the S. C. & P. railroad contemplates opening stockyards there this fall. The crops in Antelopa county are bet tor this year than they ever have been before. From the outlook of No ligh wo can safely say that there is no better opening for investment now offered in this state , nor ever has been. jy29tsmfc Elegant accommodations , lowest price , Astor House , N.
