The time of the. district court yesterday
was taken tin with the case of Mullen ,
charged with having unibc//.lud from
Crofts , the money loancr. Tl o argu-
nuints were made yesterday afternoon.
Yesterday afternoon Charles Henry ,
while at work on a scaflbld calcinnning
in the Methodist church , foil and frac
tured his loft leg , which was caused by
the giving way of the scaffold.
In the two against S. L. Castor vs
Iowa Mutual Live Stock Insurance Com
pany , J..L. Dugot , receiver , a motion has
been tiled by tlio tiluintin"asking that the
case bo dismissed and the plaintiff bo
released from any liability of costs.
There seems to have been some doubt
as to the Union I'acilic road having
ordered new street cars to take the place
of the ones now in nto in this city. Yes
terday William II. Hums , the general
agent of the Union Pacilic in this city , in
formed one of the HKI : force that the oars
have been ordered and will soon bo ready
to run.
Last evening the fourth one of Ray
mond's CNunr.sions this season" went east
over the Hock Island route in four Pull
man sleepers. There will bo another
one of these parties arrive on the IGth
nnd ono on tlio ird instant on their re
turn cast to their homes in the New
England states.
Tlio police last evening raided a gang
of thirteen tramps ahd placed them
under arrest. Ono of the prisoners was
seen to throw away a package which he
had on his person , and the oflicor.s , inves
tigating , found it to contain n do7.cn
ladies' white kid glovc.s. The goods
wore marked with tlio name of Wiig &
West berg , of Omaha , and as that lirin
was burglarized ono night last , week it is
supposed this gang are the robbers. The
Omaha police wore telegraphed the faets
and wilt conic over and look the matter
up this morning.
Yesterday the daylight gave a bettor
opportunity of seeing the results of the
falling of the high built' in the rear ot
Hattonhauor's carriage factory. The
huge bank of dirt winch fell crushed in
"the side of the brick building used as u
blacksmith shop , necessitating its
abandonment. Ihe lossfalls heavily upon
Mr. Iluttenhaiior , but ho is going in
pluckily to niako needed changes and
improvements. Ho will move ono of his
largo buildings nearer the street so as to
leave room for a now blacksmith shop in
the rear , and will hereafter use the space
near the treacherous bluff for keeping
lumber uiid material. Had the lancl-
slide occurred in the day time it would
very probably have resulted in the severe
injury or death of several.

Since the disappearance from Omaha
of Mrs. Ilueber , alias Frank , a poarch has
boon made for her , as she was to appear
for trial at this term of the district court ,
on the charge of enticing the Mercer
girl into a honso of ill-fume. A tel
egram was received trom St. Paul by tlio
marshal of Omaha that Mrs. Frank had
been arrcstod there. After some further
telegraphing Sheriff Keel started for St.
Paul to bring her back. The shcritf at
St. Paul hud telegraphed that the
woman would come without papers , but
ho thought best to prepare himself. On
arriving there ho found Unit it was u
different woman entirely , and not the ono
wanted. Her name was Mrs. Frank , and
she came from Omaha. She had loft
uoino little bills behind her , and she
thought that this was why she was
arrested. In proving olearlv that stie
was not the Mrs. lliiobir , alias Frank ,
the sheriff returned without her.

"What docs the HKK mean by pitching
Into the Home of the Friendless * " That
quury is a natural one , as the HEK Is
known' to generously support all chnr-
itablo enterprises which it deems worthy
of public support , and gladly stands by
all honest efforts to make young and old ,
little and big , happier and better. The
HKI : is not pitching into the Home , and
has no malien nor spite against the man
ager. The call for an investigation , and
the statements made by dllu-renl wit
nesses in regard to the management of
the Home , did not emanate in the BIK :
olllce. Af a news gatherer and news-
giver it felt it to bo simpleTlnty to inform
the public just what it could learn about
an institution which has time and again
laid claims in its columns to urge the
public to support it. The HII : : has no
jighl to make against such an institution
if it is properly conducted , and has no
light to make against Mr. Lumen if ho
proves to bo the proper person to manage
it. It does not propose"however , to gloss
over facts to please anybody , nor does it
projmso to choke into silence the com
plaints made by apparently competent
and responsible witnesses.
As a matter of fact , Mr. Lemon has
been more or less a patron of the HKE
olllce ever since the HKIlocated : an olllce
in Council lilulfs , and personally the re
lationship has been courteous and
friendly Within a short time the HUE
man refused to visit the Homo for the
purpose of giving it a paid write-up , so
licited by the manager of the Homo , and
the reports of its a I ) airs becoming so
many and damaging , it could not. as a
faithful chronicler of Council Hind's
events , do otherwise than acquaint its
readers with such information as its
moans of gathering afforded.
Mrs. E. H. Kinsoy , wno was recently a
matron at the home , and who is said to
have some valuable information on the
subject , writes a letter to a lady friend in
this city , setting forth her experience in
the home , and urging the peojilo here to
take some action to have the abuses
remedied. As portions of her letters arc
concerning personal matters , and others
expressive merely of her own fooling , the
BKK gives its readers only such portions
of it as recite facts which foil under her
observation while she was connected
with the work. She says that she tirst
met Mr. Lemon at the Baptist
state convention at DCS Moines
two years ago. Ho glowingly pic
tured the home to her and its work. She
had lost her husband and had four ittlo
children dependent upon her. Her
health was poor , and she had lost what
money she had by the failure of u bank.
Mr. Lemon told her that the institution
was wholly dependent on God and faith
in him for daily food and clothing. He
represented that there was a kimlergar-
ten and excellent school in connection
with the homo , and m view of all these
representations she concluded to let her
children go and try it until she could got
well so as to take them and do for them
herself. "Lato in December I wont to
Council Hluffs to spend the holidays with
the children and see for myself. I found
a terrible state of things. The school
broken up , the matron on the war path
with the manager and the then
twenty-six children suffering from neg
lecting ways too sickening too relate.
"Tho manager explained that all this
was duo to the assistant manager and to
the matron , w 10 had lot these neglects
arise while he was away. Ho said ho was
going to move to the homo himself and
take personal charge4 of it. I took my
little two-year old babe in my lap anil
lice were creeping tliiek over her head.
My oldest litilo boy got behind my chair
and almost his lirst words to mo wore :
'Mamma , when you go away from here
wont you take me1 ! !
The cause jot this condition of affairs
being satisfactorily explained , and the
manager setting forth In glowing words
his purposes and aims and the reforms
he would 'institute , together with
urgent requests that she should remain
and servo as matron , she concluded to
do so. "His plan seemed good and his
aim a noble ono. My heart wont out in
sympathy for the dear little children
there , un.11 consented to act as matron.
They were covered with vermin both of
head and body. " She went at the task
of cleaning them up. and soon had them
in a better condition. "Jn a few days
every child was contented and happy
aside from suffering from the tyrannical
influence of the manager whoso acts I
did not approve. I concluded , however ,
to make it a life work , deciding that I
was willing that m.y children should sutler
somn deprivation in order to build up
snob an institution. 1 ordered my house-
hwld goods sent there and J united my
lot with that of the friendless little ones.1
On the 1st day of March , 1885 , my little
Irene died , without a moment's warning.
I found it unpleasant getting along with
the manager and family , and finally con
cluded 1 could do better work for the
Homo by visiting different parts of the
state and making known its objects and
needs , thereby awakening greater inter
est and sympathy for it. 1 left my chil
dren there quite contented. As my little
ouo was the lirst to die at the Home , I
foil it my duty to lift the debt of the
cemetery lot. < mr. Lemen told mo lie
only had thirtv days to pay for it in.
The first money I took in ( which was the
proceeds of a festival given at Somerset ,
la , , ) 1 sent him $ S5 to pay on the lot. 1
next hont him $10 moro for the same pur
pose. That was In Juno , 1885 , and tlio
lot is not paid foryot. "
"I was absent BIV months , and nil this
time in communication with tlio man
ager , who always reported my children
well and doing wolf. On my return to
the institution , however , my mother
blood boiled with indignation. I found
tilth , rags , vermin of head and body.
Hungry bujra by the . Insuillcient ,
poorly cooked food. Oh , i cannot give
details , only it was awful ! I had believed
Mr. Lemon a sincerely gospel man , with
a generous heart for sufioring humanity.
Hull found him to bo high tempered anil
cruel. My oight-ycar-old Willie was just
a walking skeleton. A few mure days
and ho would have laid on the hill beside
little Irene. Persons who saw my boy
would say. 'yon should have taken
your child to polion headquarters
and let them have ) seen him before bring
ing him homo Mr , Lumen threatened
mo if I wont away and reported the con
dition I found things in there. If I did
so ho would prosecute mo. If I contin
ued , however , a friend to the institution
ho would befriend niu. "
"Ho beat my daughter Mary so BO
vcroly that she could not sit down , and
when she showed her bruised hips to
some of thu girls in tlio homo ho beat her
for doing so. "
Such are the specific charges gleaned
from a long letter from this lady who
acted in such intimate connection with
the home work that she ought to bo able
to know concerning its management.
Other statements have been made to
tho. HKK by persons living here , and by
persons whoso state-menu on other matters -
tors at least would be taken without a
doubt , and they are to the same otfcot
Yesterday the DKB'WHS put-in possession
of a carefully written statement made by
one such person , verifying in detail the
complaints given in the JU.E the day be
fore 'and sajiujz that all the slatomcnl *
an bo MibUantlatcd by unimpeachable
evidence. The names of wllncs.-es are to
bo placed in the hands of r.ny competent
committee which will honestly examine
ute the facts. This witness , after nnrr.it-
tig various incidents of neglect , of lack
of cleanliness , and of too severe
Hitiiilunoiit , savs : "An enlightened pub
ic will not permit Mr. Lemen tor plond
m OXCIKV that ho lacks moans. AO man
s necessitated to collect forty-live child-
en and pcrpotuallv doom them to
starvation rations If Mr. Lcman really
acks menus ho should place the. orphans
n good families , or hand them over to
he overseers of the iw > or. The attempted
eWitness is the result of the system , the
lose huddling together of so mniij of
both sexes. Under Mr. Lumen's regimen ,
is developed jit the home , the
orphans nro suffered to bo infested
vith vermin so that the nits of tlio uf-
iictivc parasites are visible in the hair of
ho orphans. A lady outside of the homo ,
seeing the sad plight of the children , vol
inteercd to comb their heads. I his
niinblo service was continued almost
daily during many weeks , but the lady
referred to declines any further to wage
war upon lice if the orphans shall con-
Inuo subjected to the tender mercy of
Mr. Lemen. "
Such are samples of the statements
made to the HEK , and it seems that they
should not pass unnoticed. If they are
tot founded on facts their falsity should
)0 declared by some impartial commit-
eo. At present they are being made use
> f , and it is on the strength of those and
jimilar claims thataro ! being made that
nn attempt has boon made to get the
> oard of trustees , or the city pastors , or
some other body to examine these wit-
losses , and bring in a verdict. If these
hings are true the public should certainly
io so informed , nnd thoij , when called
ipon , as they are daily , to contribute to
ho support ot the institution , they can dose
so intelligently.

The Open Air Concert.
The complimentary open air concert
in Bayliss park last evening tendered to
the citi/.ons by Odell Bros. & Co. , drew
a large crowd of people and proved a
happy success , The enterprise shown by
these young men was the occasion of
many commendatory remarks from
those who enjoyed the sweet music
given by the Gorman-Amurioan baud.
Of course the free eoneort was really an
tidvcrtlscment of this wldo-uwako real
estate nnd insurance firm , but it was ad
vertisement in a most pleasing form.
The programme was also marked by a
boomish inspiration for Council Bluffs ,
