The chief trouble- given the police of
lalo has hecn by trumps and loafers , who
are unusually thick in and about the city.
Yesterday word was received at head
quarters that a gang of a dozen had a
keg of beer in the woods in the eastern
part of the city , and that they were run
ning nloiit the residence streets annoy
ing people and indulging In lights and
other disorderlincsH. Chief Matthews

captured three. In bringing them in tlio
chief had onein his buggy , while Cousins
marched the two others along the streol ,
the olllcer keeping his revolver
in his hand until they reached

Taking advantage of the presence of two
ladies walking along in front of them
one of the tramps made a break , and the
ladies being between thu olllcer and him
he sped down the street , thu ollicor not
being in a position lo shoot or chase. Ho

Tlio Auction Row.
The war between the partners in the
auction store , J. M. Levi nnd I. Colin ,
seems to bo a badly mixed one. Colin
ImdLovi arrested on a charge of einbcx-
/.lenient , the information being filed in
Justice Frainey's court. A change of
venue was taken to Justice Hendrieks ,
and there the ease was dismissed on the
pronnd that the information did not
eh vrgo definitely any crime , the com-
> lunt not Mating to whom the goods be-
onged and not giving any description of
ho goods. The information seemed
ery clear , as will be observed by its
vording , which recites that ho "wilfully ,
inlawfully and with intent to
onvert to his own nso cor-
: ain coeds and personal property
n'rustcd to him as bailee , which said
ooils and personal property and in his
lossession entrusted to him aforesaid ,
id , on the 4th day of Mny , 1880. feloni-
tihly and willfully cmbe/zlo nnd appro
priate same to his own use , and did there-
i.y take , steal and carry away and con-
ort the same without the consent of the
iwnor thereof , which said goods so ap
propriated are of the value of $100. ' '
There has been some talk about the
art taken by Constable Itiekotts in the
mutter. In justice to him it should bo
stated that he did not kick or abuse the
ivoinan , but that he simply made the levy
in some pictures found by him at tlio
louse , and that she ordered him out of
ho house. He refused to go , and she ,
lying into a rage , made a scene.

Tlio Grand Opening.
Last evening the May opening of the
People's store took place. It is without
doubt one of the most interesting dis
plays to the ladies , that has taken place
in this eity. Messrs. Henry Kisoman &
Co. have devoted much time and expense ,
and have spared neither , to make this
opening u grand affair in every sense of
the word. They have engaged extra
clerks of much experience to attend to
the drapery of their goods , nnd , as a consequence -
sequence , their immense dry goods store
presents an elegant appearance.
From the beginning , 750 ! o'clock , to
the close , at 10tiO : o'clock , largo crowds
of ladies and gentlemen visited the expo
sition.
Much praisn is duo the clerks of the es
tablishment for their untiring efforts to
make the opening a success in every par
ticular.
To-night and Friday evening the open
ing will bo continued , and grout crowds
will no doubt attend.

Financial Trouble.
Last fall II , G , Fibber , of Underwood ,
turned over his stock of general mer
chandise to his sons , who were to run
the same under the firm name of Fisher
liros. At the time the senior Fisher took
n chattel mortgage for $0,000 , on the
stock , and as the boys wore running be
hind , the old gentleman , who is quite
wealthy and owns u largo farm near
Underwood , recently had the mortgage
placed on file. This caused claim after
claim to come in and be presented until
now Council Itlulls presents claims to
the amount of $1,100 , Omaha $1,200. DCS
Moincs 1800 and Chicago $3,300 , II. G.
Fisher has secured all claims except
those from Chicago.
Tlio Mercer Case.
The case of Mrs. Ilubcr , alias Frank ,
charged with inducing Lulu Mercer to
enter upon a lifo of shame , is to come up
again before , lwlgo Aylesworth to-day ,
The case was continued to give the do-
fcnso a chance to show up further ovi-
dcnco to substantiate the claim that the
girl had been kept at an Omaha hotel by
n railway man , andtlieproccution prom
ising lo bring in robultal evidenceto
show this to bo a slander against the
girl. This point is the only one to bo con
sidered. and the hearing upon this will
probably bo brief. The decision of the
matter may therefore bo expected to-.lay.

ADVERTISING
our A. B. C. Soap on the most magnificent scale ever attempted by any one firm ,
Three years ago we started out to sell A. B. C. Soap on its merits , to-day thousands of the most
intelligent housekeepers in this and all the principal cities of the Union use our A. B. C. Soap and marvel
why it is not used in every home.
The principal grocers throughout the Union tell us one reason why its use has not become general
is that
has not been sufficiently advertised ; and another reason is , because many people who have bought it , did
not give it the necessary and intelligent attention it deserves. They did not read the directions , and
finding that it would not wash by laying A. B. C. Soap on top of the bundle of soiled clothes , they fell
back to five cent soap.
Thousands * * . us : "Your A B. C. Soap is all that you claim for it ; it not only gives satisfaction ,
but we find that our most intelligent customers say that it is
A BLESSING IN THE HOUSEHOLD
and are enthusiastic and speak in the highest terms of praise about it. Why don't you advertise it ? "
It is therefore that we are making this extraordinary effort to bring A. B. C. Soap to the notice of
every intelligent person and in order to induce every one to buy it , and continue to use it until they hav
fully tested its merits , we say to them
SAVE THE ABO WRAPPERS
And send them to us during the months of June or December next , and we shall distribute among you
an array of presents which , for magnificence and usefulness , surpasses everything heretofore offered by
any one firm.
Send four cents in stamps and we will send you a catalogue , which is now in course of preparation
and which will give you a full description of all the presents and the mode
TO OBTAIN A PRESENT
Those who have not used A. B. C. Soap , of course , will ask , "what is it ? "
A. B. C. Soap is our own invention , and all who have used it cheerfully concede to it the merit of
being the greatest improvement ever made in domestic economy. A. B. C. Soap , and the MODE OF
WASHING WITH IT , is as different from all other soaps , and the old way of washing , and is as
much an improvement over the old system , as traveling by railway is over that by an ox-cart. A girl of
18 , or the most delicate person , can wash
WITHOUT THE LEAST EXERTION.
ii one hour , more clothes with A. B. C. Soap , than the most robust , with the hardest work and slavish toil
i tn wash with the best soap , and the old way of washing , in three hours. And withal , A. B. C. Soap is
t\je \ mildest and sweetest soap ever manufactured. We warrant you can wash baby with it and it will look
y sweet and fresh as a rose.
Remember , that while ycm can use A. B. C. Soap in anyway or manner you please , it is best to use
it nccording to the directions on the wrapper , v/hich will also teach you the new way of washing.
Remember-also , that in order to obtain one of thcso presents you must save your wrappers and send
I ti ) to us V > v mail , during the months of June or December next.
