A'Man Who Wanted to Make the Reporters Smile for a Week. An Interesting Chapter on Coons. Last evening THE BEE gave an ac- ountof the suicide in Lincoln of W. Coons , a wayfaring man , which was obtained from a man who came p from the capital Friday. Our pecial reporter at Lincoln interviewed Ir. Charles , the man whom Coons ollowed to Lincoln. "Though I cannot aay that I am glad he is dead , " said Mr. Charlss , 'the ' knowledge that he is , is a great ource of relief to me. " He then rent on to detail the actions of Mr. loons during the past month , up to which time Mr. Charles had been a csident of Chicago. has been stated that Charles two ago married the divorced wife of ; eons , since which time the lat.er re lorted to evcty available means to exert - ; ort money from the estimable lady ic had once so mercilessly abused , lis appeals for money were responded tc time sftcr time , which he squan dered for drL k. Of late they con- : luded tj give him no more , and ho sscnied to blame Mr. Charles for this ; liiicj ho decided that he muse je avenged. Shortly bifore the form- tr lift Chicago , where he ia highly re- spectedas a geatlenun , Coona"gavo ic out" that he would "do" him if he mat Charles and was "looking for him. " . One day he ruthed into a cut lery store on Clark street , aud , with fire in his heart and blood in hi ? eye , demanded the "largojt butcher-knife they had in the store. Ho told the clerkhe was hunting Mr. Charles down , and ifthoymettherewouldbeatragedy which would make tie newspaper re porters smile for a week. The young clerk , as soon as practicable , rubhed bareheaded over to the hotel , nhera Mr. Charles was stopping , to Warn him of his doom , bat it was unneces sary. Goons did not put in an ap pearance. Shortly after this Mr. Charles had occasion to go to a town down east , and had been there but a day when he learned that his boisterous enemy was after him , red hot , ani tellin ? everybody about it. ' The two men met at this place , and Coona made such demonstrations with his knife and pistol as to ciuao ihe objector his wr.vh to exhibit his own tnjine cf death. From this place Mr. Charles cania out to Lincoln to start in business , travelling by the way of Kuieaa City. No nooner had he reached the coital of this elite , \ than he Inet Ccona i.n the strcel , in a beastly ttnte of drunkenness , and the latter changed his mode of attack here , audni the attitute of repentance begged to bo taken in aud fed. These supplications were not heeded , it is needless to say. A day or two passed , which must ' have been full of tufleriag to Mr. Charles , when it waa learned that Coons was prowling around the house where the former w.w stopping , dur ing the evenings , and waa seen to put his demon-liko face up to the window , for the supposed purpose of getting a bead on Mr. Charles. Imagine , if you can , the great re lief to Mr. Charles when it was learned that his pursuer hid taken his own life. There are other incidents in this little episode which would beef of interest , but space is lai.king. We cannot refrain from cddiug , however , that whisky caused all the suffering : ; nd the finnl death. An acknowledged Laier Haven's "Snow Fhke" Flour. Sold by J. B. French & Co. FURS ! FURS ! !

About 6 o'clock Friday evening two boys entered Doyle's news depot on Douglas street and began looking about idly al the goods , one of the boys , for the sake of an excuse proba bly , pricing some pocket diarys , etc. , while the other took a hasty inventory of the stock. Mrs. Doyle was In the store alone at the time , and her sus picions were aroused by the talk and actions of the boys , si much so , that she placed some valuables out of reach and encouraged their belief that goods could be purchased cheaper down town. At length one of the boys dropped a finely bound volume of "A Fool's Errand" on the floor as he was trying to get it in his pocket and this gave the game away. Boon after they started to gc , one of them quite hurriedly , and Mrs. Doyle saw some of the pocket-booksdime novels , etc. , sticking tut of his pocket. She seized his companion and demanded or him the pjy for the stolen articles. About this time Mr. Ray came along and the first boy , who had been hiding near by , broke and run followed by Mr. Rav , who hid learned whit the trouble was , crying "Btopthiel ! > Ibud enough to at * tract attention. Too fugitive , whose name was John Ganersou , rau across 15th street toward the postoflice , scattering his plunder oa tither side ai ho went. In front of the psstoflke he rim plump into the armi of Major Furriiy , who tor nhn in then and there , and walked him bck to Mri. D.yle'd , where he was searched and a number of articles found on hi * person. Those that ho had thrown away were pinked up and returned afterwards. The prisoner offered to pay the damage , even to the amount of § 25 , bat Mrs. Doyle refused to compromise , and he was taken to jail , where ho now awaits ex amination oa the charga of petit lar ceny. Yesterday aboth 2 o'clock the house of a well known resident cf North Omaha , who does not desire any notoriety in this connection , ho says , was entered by a burglar cr ? burglars Who climbed over Iho tran som of the front door by means of an empty box hauled into the proper po sition. After alighting on the inside they rpsned the front door by the key which remained on the inside. A thorough tour of the rooms was then made , inclndingtheonc occupied by the family , where b dim light was burning. The bureau drawers wera opened anc examined , and a truok standing in the sleepinc room was picked up and cir rled out into the yard , where the lock was picked and its contents overhaul ed. Strange to say , thefellows carrier nothing at all away with them , anc the only reasonable explanation o this fact is that they were high-tonec crooks , and wanted nothing bu money , jewelry or light valuables The discovery of their visit was made this morning when tha family got up about six o'clock and fount the front dorr ajar and the house cold In a poi tiou of the bureau which was overlooked there was a snug sum o money and a gold waich and chain c considerable value They will not b there to-night , however , so the visitors need not call again with that expec tation. STOWED ON THE STREET. Another piece of crooked work vra perpetrated on North Twelfth street the intended victim being Mr. W. A Massener , who has resided in Omaha but a short time and who works acres the river. Mr. M. was pursuing hi way homeward about 8 o'clock , when in the neighborhood of Chicago street he was suddenly knocked down b ; someone , who came up stealthily from behind. He was knocked into a stat of eemi-nnconscionsness by th fall , and biforo he could recover cover himstlf his vest pocket were relieved of about $8 in change and a silver watch of no great value The robber then fled toward town Beyond a small lump raised on hi head by the blow , the victim was no a eufferer to any great extent. POCKETS PICKED. A gentleman from Pierce county who came up from Lincoln last night had his pocket picked either on the train or about tha time he was gettin ; off. A large pocket book such as i uaed for bills was taken , which con tained some valuable papers of no use to any one but himself. Ho ha taken steps to recover it if possible and it is believed that the dv.ft operator ator who extracted the book is known and spotted. An Acknowledged loader Haven's "Saow Flake" Flour. Sold by J.
