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.

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.

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.

Two Iowa Farmers Pound a
Laborer to Death.
And Are Held on Charge of
Murder.
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
