HAPPILY UNITED.
Mother and Daughter Meet
After Thirty Ycanj' Silence
1 Between Them.
Xho Old Ln.ly in SutKiloil tbnt tlio
"Woman Grown Is Her I.o 1115
Lost Child.
There is onu linppy homo in Council
l Bluffs , caused by tliu mooting yostor-
I day of inotlicr and daughter ivlio lind
I not heard from each otlior or mot in
thirty long ycara. A few days ego
Tin : BIB : gave thu details of thin
colored family's history , to thu effect
that the mother , Mrs. Clara Brown ,
while in slavery , about thirty years
ivjfii , NVIIB sopnra < ! from her children ,
ono daughter Im.x a muro child.
Sincu then nhe Ims heard nothing
about thorn , until a * ook or BO ago ,
when word came to hur at her homo
in Denver that her daughter was living
in this city , her name bumg Airs.
Eliza Brewer. The old lady became
aufliciuntly satisfied of the identity of
the daughter by correspondence , and
started nt once for this city. She ar
rived hero yesterday morning. Her
iiii lighter missed thu street car going
to the transfer , and so waited on the
biiuuk corner lor the arrival of her
mother , whom she had not
seen auico girlhood. The old lady
was met at the depot by
another colotud friend , and aa the
two otoppod oil tlio oar the daughter
was waiting. Tiio mooting was n
touching and a ludicrous one at a
iimilo of thirty years' separation and
alienee. The mother and daughter
ilung their arms about each other'u
nooks , tears rolled down their diuky
taceu , and just as thu good old l.uly
oxcluimcd , "Brens do Lot' , chile , bicss
do Lor' , " the two tumbled and full
Hat in the mud , which covers the
atriot in all directions. Thuy man
aged to scramble up , somewhat the
worau for the tumble , and without
paying any attention to the mud
clinging to their dresses in great
patches , they continued their ombiac-
ing mid weeping fur some- little time ,
and then walked u > the daughter's
homo , a block or two distant ,
The old lady loft the prepared meal
almost uutiiBted , and busily visitud
with her daughter , asking all sorts of
questions as to her past lilo , and thu
incidents of her childhood. She was
satisfied from what nho had heard by
letters that it was really her daugh
ter , but still bho could realize more
fully when hearing the proof from
her own lips. Mr , Brewer could remember -
member her twin sister , now dead ,
whose name was ' 'Paulina Ann , " and
could recall her uncle's features and
name.
The mention of the name of "Pau
lina Ann" seemed among the most
touching of the proofs of identity to
the old lady , for she said no ono else
could have known about hor.
The old lady , Mrs. Brown , has lived
in Denver since 1858. She told Tun
BKK reporter that they called her thu
first woman settler in Denver , but
that they were mistaken in this. She
was ono of ho first , but not thu , first.
She became acquainted with a colored
woman named Mrs. Suundors , who ,
about two years ago , removed to this
city , and is now IKMU nt No. 537
Broadway. Mra. Suundura acciden
tally bccamo acquainted wjth Mrs.
Brovvor , and knowing the story of the
old lady's life , was surprised on
hearing something of Mrs. Jkower'a
life to tind so many coincidences as to
lead her to think that Mra. Browur
was perhaps Mra. tirowu'it long lost
.daughter. She sent word to thu lat-
'tor , correspondence followed , and the
old lady started for this city , and hero
found her long-folt hope fulfilled by a
joyful mooting.
The old lady's story aa told to THU
Itr.u was touching , and could only be
fully appreciated by hearing it from
her own lip.aa given in her simple
language , while the tears rolled down
her withered cheeks. After tolling
how they had bot'n cruelly separated
by iilnvory , tth said : "I alu |
( ruy every "igiit , f ° r saint
and miner , Hut they might
be rcmin'od of dontu and do judgment
and don I nil us pr.iyod 'specially ' for

Thu old lady can hardly roolizo tlu <
change in her daughter. Sold from
her arm * when only two or three
yours old and separated from hur
entirely at the ago of eight , she has
seen or heard nothing from nor until
now Him greets her u woman of 118
your a and the mother of nine chil
dren , ono of whom now in Texas , has
a little babe , so that the old lady finds
herself not only u grandmother but a
grout-grandmother. She expects to
remain hero a few weeks only and
then return to Denver , hoping to havu
her .daughter accompany hor. Thu
old lady snya she has uot to go buck ,
for xrhon ftlio came nway she was so
overjoyed and so eager to got here
that "ho left the front door of her

There Ima boon much credit cluiinod

nonsciiso , an it wns neither tlio may *
or'a voicu tlmt ordered the work , nor
the ninyor's tnonoy tlmt paid for it.
It W.IA the city council with him that
ordered the work , mid it wns the poo-
plo'n money which paid the hills , nnd
not VntiKlmn's money.
It mny bo didlcult to determine
how much of n part Vau tum has
tnkon in mprovements , nnd how wise
n tnnnngor lie ia in city affairs , but in
ono cnterpriso it is easy tofleo what
manner of I'nnti lie in. His llcrdic
Bclicino is n fair showing of how _ ho
personally can conduct nn cnterprioo ,
IIo promisol the pooplu that llonlic
coaches nhoiild bo put on the Btrcuta

of those who had worked hard for thu
money. The Ilordics ciinio-four-
wheeled ones - and uftur a big
llounsh and whoop at the end of n
few days were put into tlm stable nlld
thuro romainod. A m < nth or moro
ngo , in ordur to Biit'sfy ' the clamor
raised about his carp , some two-
wheeled llordicfl whro brought here ,
it being claimud that , tlio four-
wheeled ones were too heavy. Then
the promise wont forth , to quiet the
people's clamor , that as soon as the
harncBSOfl were changed into single
OUCH the Hordics would roll forth ,
nnd the people would hnvo n chnnco
tu nso the tickets they hn'd
bought months boforo. The Her-
dies- did not como forth , though.
Thou came the excuse that
the Hurdle's could not inn until the
roads got settled , and tlmt the fixiluro
of the ontorprian wns duo lo the fno'
that the citixons were Um old fogyish
to pave the streets. Paved streets
were needed. Still the clamor yooa
on among those who yivo their hard

To put it in the most charitable form
poiBJblo the Ilordic cnterpriso shows
Mayor Vaughnn to bo an impulsive nnd
unwise manager , and nn unsafe lender.
It is a fair teat ot his shrewdness and

Ono of the three masked men who
made such n doudly attack on Theo
dore Sturdonbocker ? in Keg Crook ,
last Friday night has boon captured ,
and now lies in jail in Omaha. Ho ia
a ucgro named Jo Bolts , , who hns a
notorious career , and has been in sev
eral notable scrapes , in two of which
at least ho hits been severely wound
ed. Oflicer Jilurso and Sid Sterling ,
of this city , got on track of him as
ono of the parties concerned , and go-
iinj to Omaha , succeeded with the aid
of ollicors there in capturing him. It
appears that n ne.cro named Jack Wal
ton was firat concerned in the plot to
rob the old farmer , nnd in company
with two white men , Frank Murray ,
and "tho Kid , " both notorious charac
ters , came from Omaha to this side of
the river , and proceeded tivo
miles out on the way to
the farmers house , and then
Walton weakened and backed out.
The party returned to Omaha and se
cured Jo Jiotts to tnko Walton's
placo. Bolts , Murray and "Tho
Kid" went on Friday night to the
farmer's house nnd committed the
tobbory , the details of which have ul
rondy been given in Tin : Bin. On
tlio return to Omaha Walton aw
liotts in a Miloon , and said , "Well ,
you've ' clone it , i suppose. " 15ottn told
him that ho had and told i.im all about
it , admitting tlmt ho fired the shot
which will prob.ibly result in the
duith of the farmer , and wna BO badly
rattlud by his part in the affair that he
cried as ho told about it. Another
natty hoard enough of this conversation
tion to give the oilicors a clue , nnd by
it Sterling managed to got nt Holts'
whereabouts , while Morse and Eclpcr-
tun of Omaha were getting the war
unit. A sufficient force wus then got
to capture Butts without any trouble ,
and Walton wns also arrested and held
nljjj } witness. The party overhearing
the conversation will also appear as a
witness if necessary.
Tui : Bun in compliance with the
desire of the ollicors has kept stil"
about the capture until it is ovidcn
that the publicity will not intorfora
with the capture of the other two
Murray and "Tho Kid. " They an
being closely followed up , and will
it is thought , bo in custody very soon
A requisition has boon sent for to
bring Bolts over to this city , and
Walton , the witness , to whom Bolts
confessed camu over last evening ,
without any papers.
The olllcoia have gained enough ev
idence to nmko Bolts calling anil elec
tion sure , and to hia companions just.-
ice will surely bo moled out if
caught' In the neighborhood of thu
tragedy thuro is an intouso fooling ,
and threats are freely made of lynch-

Corropoiidcnco of Tlm lloo.
This plnco is n paradise ( left hand

thorn gently cumo in night before last ,
and being noticed by Marshal Cake ,
a close watch was kept rvrr their
movements. Yesterday forenoon , a

southwest corner of the Square , nnd
who had his room overhcnd , hhd oc
casion lo go up stairs. The door wna
locked ns usual , but in a moment ho
noticed tlmt aomo ono had been pay
ing him n visit. A now suit of clothes
wns gone , ns wns a revolver and nBinall
sum of money , the whole aggregating
about S-10. Uuuning down stairs , hi'
oncoiin lured the mnrahal , who nt once
started to the depot , About half way
down ho overhauled his man wearing
thu Btoh-n suit. Thu burglary , pursuit
nnd capture were nil crowded into llio

The mayor of Ilud Oak is very "ten-
dor" with "trnvoleri. " Ono recently
ilud from small pox and believed him
self just taking it , but the mayor gave
him § 10 and costs , to work out on the
streets at a dollar n day , rightly con
cluding that the streets were in no
dimuer of taking the small pox ,
whether the trump did or not
Last summer one of the fraternity
refused point blank to work in ro-
oponso to the marshal's polite
request. It was a hot day and
the follow waa allowed to
nurse his ball and chain in'peace
but ho laughed at the other corner of
his mouth when the dinner skipped
him. llufuaiugjto woik in the after
noon ho was sent aupporlosa to bed ,
" " ' breakfast
and was "excused" from the
table the next morning. Aa ho still
objected to work the marshal finally
put him under the pump and ducked
him until ho agreed to change hia
habits , when ho was allowed to con
tinue on the job for full time at a dollar
lar a day nnd "grub. " It don't pay
very well to be n tramp nt lied Oak.
The renders of Tin : BEE doubtless
remember the case of the two boys ,
Coolcy nnd St. Glair , who were arrest
ed nbout the holidays on the charge < > t
burglary.They had n pretty uood
' 'kit" of burglars' tools , with keys and
ombinations of various safes in Red
) , Uc , shooting irons , otc. , and had ac-
ually opened the nafo of Mr. Holt , a
: norchantof this place , and secured § 75 ,
part of which money wns found on
; icir pei sons. Of couise , if these
'ants bo proven in court , the precious
illains must "go up. " But it now
ooins a little doubtful whether they
ill be punished ns their crimes do-
orvo. Dospoiato efforts are bting
nado to induce the prosecutnm wit-
iosaos to decline prosecuting , and thus
icrmit the state to lose the case. Wo
reely avow our conviction that for
heso witnesses to permit the case to

, grave wrong to the community , and
ociety ought not to allow it. What
ociety can do in such cases to protect
