A Woman Dcserls Her Twin Babies Only Three Weeks Old , Tlio Police After Her. About n month ngo a woman giving her ntitno na Nora J. Smith arrived in this cify nnd rented rooms of John , the Ohinnmnn , on Notth Mum street. About a week nfter her arrival she gave birth to twins , both girls , and hecuring the ncr- vices of n woman ID take care of her , has been living there oinco. A short time ago she placed one of the babes in the care of a nurse on Upper Broadway , nnd on Thursday last she made eoino sus picious moves as if about to skip out of town. The police were informed and they watched the woman so closely that she could not got aw.-xy very well , but yesterday morning she disappeared. The oflicors learned that a woman of her description loft on the Hock Island train , and it was supposed that aha had started back for DCS Moinoa. Mayor Vaughan at noon telegraphed to Stunrt to head her off , nnd have the woman arrested on the arrival of the train at that placo. The wires were down and the message could not be sent until about II o'clock , an hour after the train had passed Stuart. By some ntrango picco of stupidity on the part of the employes at tlio telegraph oflicotho fatal delay was not made known to the mayor , and it was not until late in the afternoon , when making the inquiry for an nnswcr , that ho learned the facts. Ho then telegraphed to Dos Moines , but as the message would not reach there until after the arrival of the train , ho had little hope of catching the woman. It is useless to try to use words to ox- the indignation felt at so cruel n Srcss of two little babes , who are thus loft by their own mother among strangers and without friends or caro. It is to bo hoped that she will bo brought to the front in some way. During her stay hero she is said to have received money from some ono in Den Moines to pay the necessary expenses , and it is surmised that the mala partner who ought to share the responsibility is in the capital city , and she has perhaps joined him there. She is described as a woman about 25 years of ago , light complexion , blue eyes , brown hair , short in stature , largo noad , rather homely , sunk between the eyes , and some false tooth , n blue worsted dress and drab dolilman , trimmed with brown , a black hat vrith no trimmings , a brown veil. lliiUy Have you seen the Wokefiold Rattan Co.'s carriages ?

It is charged that of late ho has been letting ting his passion run away -with him , and that ho has been causing much commo tion in the neighborhood whore ho lives. Among the instances cited against him , is that ho recently entered a neighbor's house and assaulted the woman , throw her down on the floor , and hold her , and that it was only by the greatest exer tion that she freed herself , and giving him ft push landed him against a window smashing it , whereupon ho skipped away. Another window-smashing has taken the form of a criminal charge against him. It is alleged by a 'neighbor ' , John Morgnl , that Huffman broka in several lights of glass in the window of his house in attempt to got inside and assault his young .daughter. County Attorney Myn- stor filed an informing charging him with burglary , and on this ho was brought before - fore Justice Vaughan and gave bond to appear for examination at 10 o'clock this morning. Huffman denies the chal'ga made in every particular , and claims that it is a conspiracy to rob him of his good name and make him trouble. A Good Talker Oil the stage or platform , in society or nt homo , must not only possess bruins but n clear , strong voice.
