Fi'J'lie member- lite Women's Exchange 1m o decided to { mo a series of enter- tainnumts the first week in December. A ba/.aar in connection with this enter tainment will iiirnish inucli work , etc. , for holiday gifts. Jlr. and Mrs. .1. C.

The ba'-c ball panic to bo had at the drivinjr park Saturday between ( ho cigur makers of Omaha and this citv. is for the be.iolit of tlio "blue label , " that is , the proceeds are to he used in advertising the label , and urging smokers to patronize that label in preference to others. This is the last term of the circnitcourt here , the now law going into ell'eet by which the court will heicafter be dis trict. This term has been charactcri/.cd by the unif-nal amount of business done and cases disposed of , it being the fc\\iftest term of court held hero in years. S. E. Mtixon is the supervising archi tect of a new brick block to bo built in Missouri Valley by D. Hern. The con tracts were let yesterday , the carpenter work being given to W. A. McMillan , of this city" ; the brick work to Jens Jensen , also of Council Hlnll's , and the cornice work to John Epcnetcr , of Omaha. Tlio lawn party given by the Daughters of llebeCah at Mr. Hammer's residence , proved to be an enjoyable ail'air despite the dampness of the atmosphere. A plat form was provided for dancing , good music was in attendance , and other need fuls for u merry-making were bounti fully supplied. Lso Hercham , who has been running the opera house barber shop , has sud denly quit business , and some of those who have bought tickets for shaves and baths are mourning over their invest ment , ho not being hero to honor them. Some time ago in his anxiety to give spmo of his competitors a dig , ho sold tickets entitling the liotJer to twenty shaves for a dollar. The holders are now looking in vain for a chance to get their live-cent shaves. Contractor Jackson says ho will soon have his now mailing wagons rolling through the streets all right. The paint is not ijtiito hard onongli yet to suit him for this kind of weather , but by the time it clears up ho will have them out , and perhaps before. The Nonpareil gives ii hn a little shot it cannot give a heavy one and has made the discovery that he it. required to ftirni.sh a certain number of these wagons. Ab he is doubtless as well posted in regard to the requirements as tlio old lady , the public will be satis fied with taking his statement that the contract calls for no such number. Clark , with all his newspaper fiendishness - ness , strikes the nal | on tlio head often. Ho is now scoring the council for its econ omy in regard to the chief of police. That faithful and ollleiuit ollicor for a time kept a horse and buggy for the use of the force , but the city would not oven pro vide feed , and ho hail to let it go , the ex- jHinso being too great to boar , when the city was getting the bunolil of it. Now the city has to pay for express wagons , backs , etc. , to do police service , wlien in many of these cases the expense would have been saved entirely if Chief Matth ews had been encouraged to keep his horse and wagon at headquarters.

Miss Crowdcr , of Hamburg , has been in tho.city visiting Miss WyckolV , one of the teachers in tlio public schools here. As she was preparing to return home she had quite a lively experience witli a bold sneak thief. The twoladies were on their return from the postofTico to Miss \ \ yckolPs room , in Dr. Woodbttry's house , early in the evening , anil when reaching a crossing on Bancroft street , near Kiel's ' stables , two fellows came up behind them. The ladies were crossing single file. Miss Crowder being behind , when one of tlio fellows grabbed her hand satchel. Shu hold on with a firm grip , and in the struggle she was pulled ( town. While tlio thief was wrestling the satchel from her , his companion stooa idly by. and Miss WyckolV ti ruing around and seeing the situation used her umbrella vigorously , in pounding the thief over the head and shoulders , but with little apparent ellect. He suc ceeded in wresting away the handbag , and the two ran away. Miss Crowdcr lost about nine dollars and somn little articles of value chiefly to herself.

Some time ago ho disappeared , while they were boarding at the Essex house , and she heard nothing from him for a week , when ho turned up smiling and ready to be forgiven , his excuse being that he had got oil'on a drunk. Womanlike she forgave the offense , and the two have since been boarding to gether at thu Northwestern house , and working in tlio laundry as before. A few days ago ho got oil' again and this time ho hung around homo. Tuesday after noon she loft him sleeping in the room whilusho went to work , ho not being in good condition.

Itvas claimed that Smith having . - . no family , and no ono to care for him , living alone and bcinc In enfeebled health , he made an arrangement with the firm , with whom he had long dealt , by which they wore to provide him with the comforts of life so longns he chould h\c , and nt his death they should come into tlio pose-s ion of the farm and other property. They carried out their part of the arrangement in good faith , and saw- to it that thccccentiic old gentleman wn provided with the comfoits and care needful up to the time of his death. Now some of his brothers and otiier relatives como in with a claim that the old man's mind was affected , and that ho was not' in such mental condition as to cause the will to stand. The ca o has been pending in the circuit court for two days pa t , and is bk'ing fought inch bj inch on both sides. J.

Now York Morning Journal : "What a pretty lot of girls , and how singular that they should be Mormons1 said a tall , well divs-ed , liand-omu woman who stood.on the deck of tlio stunmship \ \ y- oming yesterday morning. The steamer had just armed from Liverpool. " 1 have watched these Mormons on the voyage , " slip added , "and 1 nmquiloMiro some of tlie'O girls have been lured away from homo. " Others In the ship had heard ami seen the girls cry in secluded parts of the steamer , In all there wcroS'iO Mormons. Nca'iJy one-third were young girls ami one-half women. Thev were in charge of fifteen elders , of whom Elder Kur/ was the leader. On thv-ir arrival at Castle Harden Com missioners Stair and Stephenson , who had heard of their coming , were on hand to investigate matters. Tlie Mormons were landed like a drove of sheep and inarched ashore under the watchful eyes of the elders , like slaves. A murmur ran through thu herd as a young and pretty girl of 19 years broke from her compan ions and asked to see = omc one in author ity. , She was referred to buperiutendent Jackson. "My name is Margaret Hawthorne , said she. in a sweet English voice , "and I want to get away from these people. " "What people ? " kindly inquired Mr. Jackson. She blushed and looked down at llio tloor. "From these Mormons , " she replied in a quivering voice. Several 'weeks ago , she said , she re ceived a letter from her uncle , John Hawthorne , who was a resident of Smithfield - field , Idaho. He requested her to come to America and make iicr home with him. in the letter was a ticket for the stc.im- ship Wyoming. She had not seen her uncle in years , but knew he was a wealthy farmer in America ; so she de cided to go to Him. She hail never heard anything of Mormons or their practices. One ot the lirst persons she met on the steamer was a Mormon elder , lie intro duced himself , spoke of her uncle as a Mormon brother , and told her he would see that she reached his home safely. She gave him her letters , money , and tickets. What followed on the vcs el is not known , hut it is said that she complained lo a fellow-passenger that she had been insulted by one of the Mormons , and did not wisli to travel in company witli them if she could help it. She was advised to continue on friendly terms with the Mormons until she reached Now York. This she did. On hearing her story Superintendent Jackson immediately ordered the tickets , money , and letters returned to her and sent "her lo her uncle in advance of the Mormon herd. When the crowd came in to register Commissioner Starr and Commissioner Stephenson stood by the clerks to in vestigate the cases of the young girls. Their eiforts were successful. A sharp cross-questioning drew some peculiar facts from the girls. VVithout exception they failed to fully explain how they obtaine I funds to pay tlieir passage over. Ono young English girl , Janetto Williamson , a pretty miss of fourteen years , with big blue eyes , a supple form , and rosy cheeks , attempted to put on an air of bravado when she came up to answer the necessary qucs- lons. She said she was a Mormon and was going to friends in Utah who had paid her passage out. "What friends ? Relatives ? " qucrricd Clerk Silbcrstein. "No , sir , " she faltered , blushing and lowering her eyes. ' "Who , then ? ' She could not answer and was at once placed in charge of Chief Clerk Van Dtr/.cn. Soon the commissioners had a score of the girls locked up in the ollico away from llio rest of llic herd. All wore young , pretty , and well dressed. All had been posted what replies to make to the usual questions and all had failed be cause the questions were too pointed. Commissioner Savage said : "Wo are tied bund and fool and cannot act except in such cases as wo can prove to bo assisted emigrants. " "There is liltlo question in my mind , " said an attache of t'iogarden ' , "that these young girls are imported specially by llio depraved elders of the Mormon Church in Salt Lake City. They are all young and good-looking. All arc afraid lo speak out on account of Ihoir deadly fear of llic elders , who hayo oblaincd ab- Eolntu control over them. " None of llio girls would lalk after being taken into the main ollico. They asked to sco the eldpr's ' , and would say nothing lo any one clso. There were many hardened faces among the older women. Many claimed to have husbands in Utah. The detention of the young girls was'grccted with con- stonmtion by llio elders. They had ex pected to bo on their way to Utali last evening. It forced a delay , and tlieir actions and looks plainly showed that they feared their prey would slip through their hands and perhaps bo sent back. The Mormons consisted mainly of Eng lish , Scotch nnd Germans , Many ap peared educated , but the majority wore far from prepossessing. SPECIAL 3STOTIOES. JiTO'TlCB.
