lars ,
Dohle , the Faniham street shoo
calor , has been the victim of mis *
ilaccd confidence in ono of his clcrka ,
'or a month or six weeks past , he
IOA been missing goods from his store
ml lately has suspected 'ono of his
Icrks named Wells. . This man has
> con in Dohlo's employ about four
months , having como . hero a
trnngor from Pennsylvania ,
incc ho has been in Omnha it is said
lint Wells 1ms led n rather profligate
fo. Ho carried the only key to the
toro , and was in the habit of open-
ng nnd closing the establishment ,
' 'or six weeks pact , it is charged , lie
ias been taking dnily moro or less
ods from the store. The goods
elected have all been of the best
uality. Over $400 wortli of boots
ml shoes were thus purloined. Wells
was assisted in the tlioftn by a man
atned Crock. The past week moro
linn the usual quantity worotakonout
nd Dolilo's suspicions were BO
vull defined that he determined
hargo Wells with stealing them. Ac-
ordingly ho called Wells to ono side
cstorday and accused him of taking
ds from him. At first Wells do-
lared his innocence of anything of
ho kind , but Dohlo's ' porsistint nccti-
ations were too much for him , and ho
onfesscd. Ho said that ho had boon
aking goods from the store for about
ix weeks and had secreted them in
lis own room and the room of Crock.
Io also stated that it had boon his in-
cntion , when lib had stolen a largo
mough quantity of goods to
o over into Iowa and start a store of
lis own. Ho begged pitcously for
norcy and finally touched Dohlo , who
) romiscd that ho would not prosecute
natter in the courts.
A search developed that a trunk full
of boots and shoes nnd also n largo
> ox well filled were stored in Crock's
room on the corner of Sixteenth and
Chicago streets. Wells' room , at
Tenth nnd Douglas streets , was also
visited and two trunks well filled , up
with goods were discovered. Wells

ELEGANT PARTY
AT TUB IlESlDKNCE OK MB. .1OI1.N T.
STr.WAUT ,
As TUB UKB reporter was "doing"
the city Inst evening about ton o'clock
li.s car caught the mimic of Prof.
Olkcr's band. Wishing to know
whence it caino lie passed down Ban
croft struct to Fifth nvonuo nnd came
into one of thu most brilliant lawn
parties ever given in the northwest
Passing through the throng of unin
vited guests who had boon attracted
to the scene by the brilliant display
of Chinese lanterns and engine head
lights , the reporter found that John
T. Stewart , the influential citizen ,
was the cause of it nil. The party
was given by Mr. Stewart in honor of
his son , Charles Stewart , who has ro-
conlly returned from the far west.
The wealth and fashion of Council
131ufTs society were invited to the
number of about two hundred and
fifty. Nearly all responded. Con
spicuous among them were noticed
Hon. W. U. M. Pusoy , Hon. W. F.
Siipp , and their ladles , M. E. Smith
and wife , N. M. Pusoy and wife , Dr.
Woodbury and wife , Mr. Barnard , of
the St. Joe railroad , nnd wif 3 , J. N.
Baldwin and wife , W. S. Amcnt and
wife , Joseph Stewart nnd wife , Hon.
J. P. Cassady and wife , Dr. Hart ana
wife , Dr. Pinnoy and wife , T. lien-
drio , wife and daughter , Mr. Harry
and Miss Mamio Noit , of Chicago ,
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Lawrence , Red
Oak , son of Dr. Lawrence , of this
city , and n daughter of E.
Cady Stanton of oratorical fame ,
John Y. Fuller , of Chicago ,
and Miss Stone , of St. Joseph , Mo. ,
wore among the distinguished guests
from abroad. Three hundred Chinese
lanterns and four headlights reflected
up in a spacious platform erected on
the lawn at the west side of the houso.
The floor was as smooth as glass and
was approached from the house
through a stairway loading from the
largo double parlors , where the guests
assembled. The music on the plat
form commenced at an early hour and
it was a magnificent spectacle to see
the richly attired dancers as they filed
down the long stairway and took their
places for the "Lancers. " The re
freshments prepared were elaborate.
Mr. Stewart was found for a moment
mont at leisure , and said that the
party was an "impromptu" affair.
When it is known that it took thirty
five hundred foot of lumber to con
struct the dancing platform ono would
imagine ho would like to drop in
aonio time when Mr. and Mrs. Stowarl
took time to prepare an entertainment
for their friends.
PROF. PAGE.
A SHOUT UHAT WITH HIM ON TUB I'KUI-
HELION QUESTION.
Judge E. B , Page , was called upon
on Sunday at his residence and fouiu :
in his front yard reclining in an easy
chair reading .tho now revision. His
attention was called to an article in the
Saturday's issue of TUB BUB and ho
was asked what ho had to say in an
swer to it. Alter remarking that
thcro was no bettor paper printed in
Iowa than THE BEE said that ho ad
mired it for the stand it had taken in
President Garficld's administration
ho claimed that TJIK BUB misunderstood
stood his position on the perihelion
question. ( Ho says that his
theory in regard to this
subject is not n now
ono , but has long been advanced bj
all the great loading astronomers and
scientists of. the ago. "TiiB BUB
seems to think , " ho said , "that I endorse
dorso the preachings of nstrologists
who predicted dire calamities , oven to
the destruction of the earth. "
In answer to the question , "Whal
did you predict would bo the result of
the approach in a direct line with the
sun of all these seven planets } " ho
said that it would have a tendency to
ratify thu atmosphere surrounding
the earth to such a degree as to pro
duce extreme lipt and cold
weather for a period of three
years and also unusual cyclones
and perhaps fronuontcarthquakcs. Ho
had said and still believed that if such
'floods aa lias visited the west this s6a
son has occurred in a densely populat
ed region during the Fourteenth cen
tury it would have caused a sweeping
pestilence.
"Judgo , do you believe the comets
that have boon prowling about lately
have anything to do with the paat cold
winter or present hot summer ? " was
asked.
"I do not believe the comets affect
the earth in the remotest degree , '
said the judge , "but have no doubl
the planets , by reason of being at their
perihelion , efloct the earth's atmosphere
phero very materially , for while I can
see that of the moon has only
ono-oiKhtioth of the power
of attraction of the earth that the
earth lias for the moon , it can heap
up the great waters producing our lu
nar tides. It is easy to believe thai
all the planets end the sun pulling ir
the same direction may neap up ant
rarify the atmosphere to the extent ol
producing extremes in climate. "
"What do you think of Tico am
Vonnor as prophets ? "
"They have no foundation upor
which to base their theories any more
.han . old Mother Shipton had. "
The leporlcr took the judge's sub-
icription , to dale from Monday , and

this fall ?
W. A. Mynstor returned , from the
country yesterday where ho has been
on business connected with his firm.
There was quite a fracas in the
"Cincinnati" between Lawyer Smith ,
of Logan , and the bar tender named
Wagner. Wagner , it seems , accused
Smith of not paying for drinks that
lie hud ordered for the houso. Smith
denied that ho had ordered moro than
five drinks , which ho had paid for ,
Mid if Wagner hud treated the house
lie must stand it. Whereupon Wag
ner sprang upon Smith and
struck him several blows. Smith
considered ho had a duty to perform
in self protection and to keep up the
reputation of the Smith family and he
performed it well. How well can bo
found out by inquiring of Wagner.
All wo can say is that when he attacks
mother man it won't bo a certain
legal gentleman who lives up in Harrison
