A Young Wife Prefers Death
to a Life of Misery.
Particulars of the Latest At
tempt at Suicide.
An attempt at suicide was made
yesterday morning about 10 o'clock b
Mra. Frccl. F. Shinrock , living on
Cuminj. street , near Twenty-third.
Her husband is a street car driverand ,
has worked for tha company for the
past seven years.
The cause of the rash act is
stid to be late family unpleasant
ness , which developed Monday night
into a fight between husband
and wife. The neighbors were aroused
by screaming and a general uproar in
the house , but what the trouble is be-
ween them no one was able to fay ,
Tuesday morning , between 8'and 9
j'clock , Mr. Shinrock was seen throw-
ng a chair at his wife , nho fell over
upon a lounge and fainted.
Mr. Shinrock called at this office
Tuesday and inserted the following
advertisement , which goea to show
that the trouble between them was
soon to bring about a separation :
The public are noticed not to giv
credit on my account to my wife
Edith Shinrock , as I will not pay
debts contracted by her.
F. T. SunoiocK.
August 17th , 1880.
Yesterday morning , between 9 and
10 o'clock Mrs. Shinrock left a hal
finished washing and , with her child
in her arms , started down town. On
her way , she stopped at the office o ;
the street railway company and lefi
the key to her house and a note , with
Mr. Smith , the superintendent , say
icg : "Please give there to Fred. "
She subsequently met Mr. George
Drew , whom she is well acquainted
with , and said : "Oh , George , wha
shall I do ! My husband has ordorei
me ( o leave his house , and told me i
I ever entered it pgln ho would lil
me. " Mr. Drew toll her to go righ
back , and expressed the hopa that n
more trouble would occur.
She then entered a car and rode to
the corner of Faruham and Thirteenth
etrect ? , where she got oft" , went to the
corner in front of the First National
bink , then turned and walked up the
street. She was next ecen
entering a car on Fif
teenth | slreet , opposite William1
block , of which Mr. John Doty is
driver. She was dressed in a gray
duster , and wore a black chip hat.
Mr. Doty noticed that she acted very
strangely , and when she attempted to
ask him to stop the car in front of her
house , her voice seemed choked atjcl
her eyelids closed , she being
very pale and nervous. The
driver helped her to alight
which she acknowledged with
"thanks' . When she entered her
house her sister was then , havinEseen
the above notice in last night's paper ,
and know that something had gone
wrong. Mrs. Shinrock exclaimed ,
" 0 Edith ! " and then sank to the
lloor in a swoon. She presently wrnt
into the most violent con-
v tttulutiOy Ttvjttltillf tot tltxJMvrullj *
and her eyeballs fairly danced
in their sockets. A physician
was immediately called. Mrs. Dr.
Vandercoop and Dr. Search were the
first to arrive. Every attempt to ad
minister an emetic proved vain , the
poor woman's tecih being set , and the
liquid ran out the corners of her
mouth , without any effect whatever.
She has been in an unconscious state
since. A lady , who had been called
in to assist , eays that the hands
of the patient would double up , then
open , her aims would bo thrown back
ward and forward , bend akimbo and
then straighten ; her toes wonld bend
backward , end in every movement of
the body the intenssst agony was pic
tured.
It is evident that she took iho poi
son in the car , but what it teas , the
reporter was unable to ascertain. In
deed , it is said that the physicians had
some doubts as to whether ehc
had actually taken poison , but
bat in the light of subsequent events ,
it is plainly shown that ahe did , and
with the one purpose of taking her
life. The reporter called on Mr.
Smith to pot the note which Mra.
Shinrock had given him , but ho said
that through some means he had lost
it , having only stuck it part way into
his rest pocket. The note , it was
thought , would do awy with all doubt
ns to the purpose of Mrs. Shinrock.
Later , a man , who declined to give
his name , brought the following to
this office , which ho found on Cuming
street , almost opposite the street car
bain :
DEAH FKED : Good-bye. I wish
you happiness with your Jicto/ou uiore. / .
May she prove all you expect. Good
bye for little C'ru and remember in a
few short months there will boanothcr
little month to feed , and another lit
tle mouth to say mamma. My name
will soon bo forgotten fornnother
more dear. Enin ,
This gives a new phase to the case.
But in all the inquiries by the repor
ter no intimation was made of a third
party in the affair. It is safe to infer ,
however , that heroin lies the source
of all the difficulty.
At the special meeting of "the
Uooks'Tuesday evening the secretary ,
Mr. E. G. Eyley , was taken by sur
prise by the presentation of a badge
from the boya. It was given in ap
preciation of valuable and efficient
services as secretary. Mr. C. J.
Green made a very happy address on
behalf of the boys , ta which Mr. Ry-
ley responded in an appropriate man
ner. An adjournment was then taken
for refreshments. It was a very
pleasant affair.

GOOD ENOUGH ,
Two Fly-up-the-Creeks Sensi
bly Sat Down on ,
The Good Judgment of Drivers
to Govern Them ,
The obnoxious and dangerous reso
lution adopted by the city council
July 27 h , requiring slow diiving to
fires , has very sensibly been suspended
until the next meeting of that body ,
when it will , we are told , be repealed
without doubt.
Naturally Dr. Miller is very angry
and threatens any amount of things in
ewe the council repeals the resolution
and talks BS men who are are ignorant
on a subject naturally do talk. The
chief engineer , who was on the
; round twenty minutes ahead of the
engine ? , siya ho could have saved the
St. Nicholas sure and perhaps the otlr
er buildings. The editor of The Her
aid who was in bed at the
time is confident that the
couldn't have saved anything. If the
editor was on trial for murder and
had no better case than ho has here
he would hang higher than Haman.
People have had about enough of the
doctor's foolishness and would like to
have him subside for awhile.
The condition of things now is jus1
this : After consultation with other
members of the council , Mr. Kauf
man , as a member of the committee
on fire , prepared an order for the chief
engineer ordering him to instruct the
driver , until further notice , to go ai
fast as their own and their horses' '
safety will permit in responding t
alarms , leaving it to their
own good sense as tP how
fast that should be. This order
was given to Councilman Hornberger ,
who made some alterations in th
same and handed it to the chief.
The people of this city demand thai
that resolution be done away with and
the old order of driving restored
They don't want any more such costly
experiences BS that they had a wee !
or so ago. That fire not only do
slroyed its thousands of dollars wortli
of property , end drove sick me
and children out of their homos T
midnight , but it has also caused on
deplorable result by which a woman
life is hanging in the balance and he :
reason tottering on its thrcne. Fo
this , thosa who originated and force

No Wonder tint "Ourroung Am

abroad when wo at homo marvel at
thpir nrprorimn apintf.iof their elders.
The subject now uppermost in regard
to them is the series of birthday par
ties of which we have written so much ,
and now comes the crowning event of
the season in the fete and feast given
by Master Johnnie Petty , son of the
junior member of the firm of Collins
& Petty , and most heartily enjoyed
by his many admiring little playmates.
A want "f space alone made it neces
sary to limit the invitations. Such
music , fruits , flowers and dainties
were never before devoted to Ilia lit
tle folks , and long will live tha "Ital
ian band" in the memories of those
so fortunate , .as to be among the
happy throiiir. One little "tot" exclaimed -
claimed , in the fullness of her joy ,
"Me dance when the music plays ; "
and verily every pulse , that had
grown mature , beat fast with the
pleasure of watching the little faces
full of gladness. It was a happy
thought , and proved an appreciation
of the power of music , when the
hostess , Mrs. Petty , chose it for the
chief feature of the evening. When
the hour arrived for their departure
nothing in the arrangements were for
gotten. The buggy and faithful horse
were again at the ser-ice of the Httlo
ones , and conveyed them home as
carefully ns it had "gathered them
in , " and though the storm looked dis
couraging , it did not in the least in
terfere with the euccess of Master
Johnnie's party , except that it pre
vented the spreading of a large tent
and lighting up the grounds. Allow
us a prediction here , that as Johnnie
wasmasterof ceremonies , at the head of
the quadrille , the "Coming Man , "
stamped itself forcibly upon the frank ,
fcarlcai countenance , and laft unmis.
takable signs of the early dignity and
self-esteem which are two most essen
tial points in the charatcer of a man
who expects to honorably fight the
world for a name or success. Just
before departing each little girl and
boy received a tiny envelope containing
.a copy of their Invitations and a beau
tiful crd bearing the name of their
juvenile host.
The enthusiasm was contageous and
after the departure of the children ,
the "old folks , " dismissing the band ,
gave themselves up to the full enjoy-
montof the higher order of music
being favored by a few of Omah.is
most talented vocalists , who discoursed
music in a most unexceptionable man-
manner and rendered it as if they
would send it back to the source from
whence it came , for music is God's
choicest gift , to man , without which
even love would lose its poetry , and
flowers their beauty. Among those
gentlemen who favored with songs
were Mr. Saunders , whose
happy renditions are well known to
Omaha , Dr. Oaks , who proved him
self an artist in his conception of mu
sic , and Mr. Donahue , who does not
surprise us with his talent , for who
could not sing with the constant com
panionship of flowers.People would be
better , younger and happier for fre
quent repetitions of the evening's
pleasures.

can Voters Will Close ,
*
A Duty Which Every Honest
Republican Owes to Him
self and the County.
Only one day more remains for
the registration of republicans under
reculatlons adopted by the county cen
tral committee. The desperate effort
which the Union Pacific managers and
their organ are making to defeat this
reform is the best proof of its utility
in the Interest of the people. Every
republican who wants an honest ex
pression of our party through th del
egates to the slate convention and the
candidates who are to represent t in
the next legislature , should have hi i-
self enrolled on the registration lis\
Nobody can be registered unless he
makes a personal application to the
registrars.
For the convenience of all clastcs
of republicans four registration offices
have been opened , viz :
At Ferguson's drug store , corner
Twelfth and Doughs ; Parr's drug
store , Tenth and Howard ; Roedor'g
drug store , corner Webster and Six
teenth ; and Titus' dru ? store , Thir
teenth street.
The hours of registration at all these
places will bo from 10 a. m. to 1 p. m
3 p. m. to 5 p. m. , and 7 to 9 p. m.

SAPP-SUOKERS SCOOPED.
After an Intensely Exciting
and Prolonged
Contest
Mr. W. O. Hepburn Knocks
Down the Congressional
Persimmons.
Council Bluffs is enjoying a sen
sation iu the fight between two fac
tions of the republican party adeem
bled to nominate a candi
date for congressman , trout that , th
Eighth congressional district.
The convention began its work c
balloting last Friday and the prc
ceedicgs of that day an
Saturday have already bee
published. The convention agai
assembled at 10 o'clock Tuea
day morning and adjourne
last night after having taken 320 bal
Jots without succeeding in nominating
any one of the candidates. It tvas be
lieved by some that the matter would
all be fixed up Tuesday before the
convention IT as called to order , but in
stead of that each party stayed by its
man with praiseworthy fidelity , and it
was said that if outside talk could
have been taken as n correct indica
tion of their pugnacity , it wai with a
disposition to 'fight it out on this line
If it takes all summbr. "
During all this contest Col. Sapp
received his regular fifty-four votes
without variation , thus demonstrating
the siayin ? qualities of his supporters ,
K11U entitling mum to stiUld III ItlO
ranks with the celebrated "Old
Guard" who supported Gen. Grant at
Chicago with such unswerving zeal.
In the course of the day's proceedings
there were some slight changes in the
anti-Sapp vote , but were trivial and
insincere , the real object being
to put out feelers for weak
places in the lines of the
opposition. At one time Ccl. Hep
burn in a dignified speech withdrew
his name , alleging that the republican
party was more to him than the per
sonal success of any candidate. This
was received amid storms of applause ,
but niter a time his name was again
balloted for and ho was complimented
with forty-one votes , the highest num
ber cast for any csnditato of the op
position to Col. Sapp during the after
noon. At ono time in the evening
session Hon. John Y. Stone received
forty votes , and again Col. Anderson's
vote ran np to forty-nine , but the con
vention finally settled back into its
former status.
A notable incident occu-red during
the afternoon session , when one of
the delegates took the floor and read a
lesson to those delegates who kept
hanging on for Col. Sapp , saying that
they were going beyond their juris
diction in longer continuing the con
test.
test.A
A motion was made that after the
2GOth ballot , if no conclusion be
reached , the convention adjourn sine
die. A delegate from Rinpgold op
posed the motion , for fear of danger
to the success of the nominee. A
delegate from Montgomery said this
movement was all for effect , and he
did not propose to bo disbanded in
any such way. Temptation has been
held out to some one , like Eve , and
they have yielded. He wanted no
dark horses for fear they got a cripnlo.
"
After some lively and pointed "re
marks the motion was withdrawn.
After taking the 320th ballot , in
which Sapp received the usual 54
votes , the convention adjourned to
meet at 10 a. m.ye terday. It was im
possible at that time to predict the
result , but it was fesred no nomina
tion would bo made.
THE DEAD-LOCK BUOKEX.
The convention re-assembled yesterday -
terday and twenty-six more ballots
were taken. On the hst , the 34Gth ,
a nomination was made RS follows :
Col. W. C. Hepburn 57 , Col. Sapp

the last ballot was taken and the con
vention adjourned.

The Missing : Willie Copley
Found.
THE BEE of Tuesday noted tbe
disappearance of Willie Copley , the
little son of William Copley , a ma
chinist in the Union Pacific Bhopaand
announced the offer of $25 reward for
hia recovery.
The lad had been sent te the
Wbeeler & Wilaon sewing machine
room Monday evening just before the
stormto obtain tomomachinencedles ,
and failiug to return at the expected
time his parents became uneasy and
began hunting for him after the rain
storm had subsided. At first it was
supposed that he would soon befound
at some neighbor's house , where he
had gone for shdlter or to play with
some boys. The neighborhood was
thoroughly searched , bat without
success , and then the search was
ixtendea in every direction by the
dinily and their neighbors , but no
where could they find any trace of the
child. By this time great fears were
entertained for his safety. Some
thought that he had been kidnapped ,
as they could not conceive of any oth
er explanation of hia di appearance.
Othera were inclined to believe that
he.had been drowned in the pond of
water that had accumulated near the
corner of 14th and Webster street * ,
as ho had been running down the
street to his homo , and oho been seen
n the vicinity of the pond. That
was the last trace of him that was
known to anybody. The pond , which
was from two to tliree feet deep
was dragged very thoroughly during
the night , but the boy was not found.
About three o'clock Tuesday after
noon a lady , Mrs. Bonnier , who lived
in the vicinity , discovered the bcdy
beneath a section of sidewalk at tbe
edge of the pond. It seems that
section of sidewalk about ten feet
long had been taken up and placed
against the fence on the east side of
the pond , all the rest of the sidewalk
on the street having been piled up
hero and there in the road to allow
the work of grading to go on. The
theory is that Willie was running
homeward and thb wind blew this sec *
tion of tbe sidewalk over on hilt ! juqt
as he was passing , and buried him in
the water and mud beneath it. The
water .it the time was about two feet
deep. The walk was taken up and
the body was lifted out. In his right
hand was found the package of needles"
for which he had been sent. His
hend was somewhat bruised and his
tongue was badly bitten , showing
that ho had received a severe and
stunning blow frdm the falling walk.
The body was conveyed homo , and
( hero a heart-rending scene took
place , for the mother wa8 nearly fran
tic with grief , and it seemed Impossi-
bib for her to become reconciled to
the loss of her boy-
Information of the discovery of tha
body was at once convoyed to Sheriff
" *
Uuy , acting coroner , and an inquest
was hold at the home , about four
o'clock , the jury consisting of John
Gallis-an , John D. Crei hton , J. H.
Brackia , M. 0. Maul , Frank Hanlon
and John T. Bell.
After a full consideration of the
testimony the jury rendered the fol
lowing verdict :
"Wo the jury , being duly empan-
nelled and sworn , do find that the de
ceased , William Copley , came to his
death by reason of suffocation , caused
by a heavy section of sidewalk , about
fourteen feet long and six feet wide ,
falling over him and throwing him
upon his face iu a pool of water on the
east side of Fourtocnthstreetbetween
California and Webster , in the city
of Omaha , Douglas county , Nebraska ,
said accident occurring immediately
north of the alley : "
The funeral took place at 2 p. m.
yesterday from the residence.
