The examination of Tom Brooks for
stealing n jjold watch from Emma Good
win came to a close befoio Judge Aylcs-
woith yonordny afternoon. The evi
dence proved nuito ipiey to the hangers-
on at police court It showed in brief
that Tom got sadly infatuated with
Kinina's beauty , anil induced her a few
month's ago to leave Stella LongX where
( .lie had been boarding , and become a
private hoti'-elaoper for him. The course
ol love i mi smoothly for a lime only.
She was not so smitten with him as he
with her , and endeavored lo shako him
oil' . He insisted on clinging to her , and
jealousy and other circumstances led to
quarrel * , in which ho beat and other.
wi'e abused her , disgracing himself still
further. During the time they were liv
ing together Tom used to wear her watch
fre.niently , and for weeks at a time ,
Last WCCK allot ono of their
quarrel * , slio insisted on returning
to Stella Long's house , and as he
had no e.\eu o for seeing her there ,
'leiiot only took the watch Irom her , but
ie.pl it. promising to return it soon. In
icr anger she hail him arrested lor steal
ing it. The court decided that although
Tom took the watch without her consent ,
.still there was no proof that he was try
ing to steal it or dispose ot it , and it was
not taken with an intent ol converting it
to his own use. Tom was discharged ,
but ghou a wholesome lecture on the
foolHines ol being so " .stuck" on such a
woman as to forget his manhood and get
himself into trouble. Another complaint.
was made against him for threatening
the girl , and he gave neiids to keep the
peace. It is quite evident that the lorn-
mine heart ha * turned towards &omu
other than Tom , and he will probably
now have the good sense to let U turn.
The evidence was not of a character to
relied credit upon either one ot them ,
but there was evidently no real intent on
his part to steal the watch. The case
has occupied tl.o greater part of two
lajs.

I'm ron IKO Home Nurserymen.
To the Editor of the HEP : I notice the
innual return of the foreign tree agents
to our city. A < , - a properly owner I wish
to see our city improved and beautilied
: f much as possible , but I do not wish to
sec our eiti/.cns wasting their time and
nonoy and getting discouraged in trying
to beautify their grounds by patroni/.ing
the foretell tree agent. 1 do not wi h to
liscourage the agent per.-onally. He
isually is a smooth talker and very per
suasive. but 1 do a.sk the citi/.eus of
Council ( 'lull's to think before purchasing
that we hare in our miiKi home nurseries
where i grown everything , both fruit
and ornamental , thai will thrive in this
climate. The agent may say. "your
nurseries hero are all right , but' they do
not grow uch and such varieties. " My
friends rest assured , if they do not grow
them , il is because they will not succeed
our climate. Those of your readers who
know , I. 1 ! . Illeo or II. C. ISa.ymond know
they are men of experience in Iho busi
ness and have thoroughly tested all va
rieties and propagate those that are relia
ble. Then again , any tree or plant
adapted to this climalo you can purchase
al home for one-half the money they will
be shipped hero. Stock grown bore
needs no boxing or freight. You ean ob
tain much larger trees , and as they are
taken up and planted the same day the
loss is nol nearly as heavy. I write this
for the benefit of the now beginners
those improving grounds for the lir.st
time , taking it for granted ; those who
have once been bitten , like the writer ,
will give the foreign agent a wide berth.

Yesterday the box of goods shipped
to Oltumwa by Sullivan and Woodward ,
the Omalia crooks , was returned here
and examined. The box , or trunk , con
tained nearly all the goods stolen from
Mrs Davis and some other articles , which
were probably stolen by this gang. The
catching of these two young lellows
souuib' to have led to thu breaking up of a
gang which lias been working in this
part of the country quite successfully.
On ono of the prisoners was found a let
ter fioin "Charlie and his pnrd , " and
this letter lias led to the arrest ot two
others , making live in all who are now
