Judge Carson spentycsteiday listening
to the evidence and arguments in the
case of George D. Brown , called into
court to answer the charge of contempt
of the Injunction restraining Iho sale of
liquor 10 the St. Louis house , of which ho
is the owner , On the part of the state
further evidence was introduced to show
that liquor had been sold in the house.
1'ollco Oflicors Kosn and Tanilsca were
examined. The former could tell but
little about what had been going on
at that plnco. Ho was not a drinking
man .itul had never wet his throat there.
Olliccr Tanilsca had seen what looked to
Iw beer sold there , but was not very pos
itive' or clear in Ins testimony. E. W.
Jackson , who used to bo city maralial
and who lives next to the St. Louis house ,
was examined , but hu know very little
for a neighbor. He had taken a glass of
beer there , but could not tell the date.
On the part of the defense then a mo
tion was made to dismiss the contempt
proceedings. It was claimed that there
was no information or accusation of any
kind filed. Mr. Brown was arrested and
compelled to give bonds for his appear
ance in court , and yet , now that ho had
come into court , there was no allldavit or
information , as the law required , lie
was not informed legally what special
act of contempt ho was charged with.
The injunction restrained him and Doer-
ilinger , who occupied the building , from
selling , from keeping for sale , and from
permitting to bo sold any intoxicants.
The aflldavits of the informers did not set
torth that Mr. Brown sold any
liquors , or that he had kept them
there for sale , or that ho had permitted
them to bo sold. The aflidavits timply
declared that a man named Hanson had
sold some whisky and beer to these wit
nesses. Brown's name was not oven
mentioned in these affidavits. Consider
able time was spent in discussing these
legal questions. Finally Judge Carson
decided that it was necessary to have
some allidavit setting forth the particular
act of contempt u ith which the defend
ant , Brown , was charged. Ho allowed
Attorney Sims time to prepare and file
such a document. Immediately after
noon adjournment this was c'one. It was
a personal allldavit of Mr. Sims declar
ing that Mr. Brown was the owner of the
building and that ho ha-1 permitted the
sales to be made in violation of the in
junction , as he ( Sims ) was informed and
believed.
The attorneys for the defense then
moved to have this aflidavlt stricken
From the file , and the case dismissed.
They claimed that it was not enough to
have such an affidavit based simply on
what some one had told Mr. Sims. It
should bo the the allidavit of some per
son knowing the facts to bo true as
stated. Judge Carson decided that the
affidavit was suflicient , as decided bv the
supreme court in a similar case m Wap-
olio county. The deck thus being again
cleared for action , the case proceeded.
The defendant was put upon the stand.
He testified that ho had leased the buildIng -
Ing to Jacob Nowmeyor , and introduced
the lease in substantiation. The lease
provided distinctly that no illegal busi
ness should bo carried on there. Ncw-
meyerm Turn let Doerllingcr run the
house. When the injunction wast issued
Mr. Brown went to both of them and no
tified them that there must bo no liquor
sold in the house. Thny assured him
that there should bo no violation of the
law and ho rolled upon their promises.
Ho was in the house once in Juno and
was assured then that there wore no in
toxicants being sold there. He had no
wish to violate the law , and had taken
such steps as ho dccmml necessary to se
cure a compliance with the writ of the
court. He had never consented in any
way for those occupying the house to sell
intoxicants in violation of law.
The attorney for the prosecution
claimed that as owner of the building
lie must bo responsible for any violations ,
even though ho has ordered his tenants
to desist. On the part of the defense it
was claimed that it must bo shown that
Mr. Brown consented to or permitted the
use of the building for these purposes be
fore ho could bo found guilty of con
tempt. It was claimed that ho did all
that * bo reasonably expected. It could
not bo expected that ho would commence
suits to eject his tenants , before it was
proved that they were carrying on an
illegal business. Nor was it to bo
expected that ho would stand guard over
the St. Louis house with a club , and prevent -
vent the illegal selling.
Tne case is ono which Interests many ,
because thorn are other largo property-
owners and prominent citizens who nro
defendants in similar cases and undcjr
like circumstances. The penalty is
severe , if declared guilty , the lowest fine
being | 500 , and the shortest term of im
prisonment being three months.
Judge Carson took the case under ad
visement , but intimated as strongly as
could be without rendering a decision
that ho would discharge Mr. Brown.
The other cases were put over until the
next terra , which opens hero August 30 ,
at which time it is expected that Judge
Duemcr will preside.
Boya Come Marching Homo.
The Dodge Light guards returned yes
terday from their week's encampment at
Ottumwa. Tlus boys looked more sol
dierly than usual , their faces being sun
burned , their fatigue coats wrinkled and
their knapsacks and canteens adding to
their .warlike appearance. There was a
drenching rain falling when they got oil
the train , but the ; marched up the street
through thn mud and moisture to Bayllss
park , the Bavarian band furnishing the
music. The boys halted at the park and
tired several rounds of ammunition leftover
over from the encampment. The sound
of musketry stirred up the business portion
tion of the city and there was a rush from
nil directions. The boys were warmly
welcomed back , nnd report a happy
time. It was their first experience in
camp , and they enjoyed it greatly.

llndly Burned.
Lena Grahl , who was visiting and help
ing in the family of Conrad Geise during
the illness of Mrs. Geise , was yesterday
morning seriously burned by gasoline.
She had just completed filling the reser
voir in the gasoline stove , which had
boon previously used in ironing. The
reservoir was allowed to run over and
the live gallon gasoline can was placed
upon the floor a short distance from the
stove without being corked up. It wus
after 11 o'clock andstiohurriedly lighted
the stove. As the generator ignited , the
fumes of gasoline from the five-gallon can
caught ( ire , as did tha gasoline previous ! ]
spilled upon the floor. Her clothing
caught tire and in an instant the poet
girl was entirely enveloped in flames
Her entire body was Dadly burned ex.
copt her chest. It was a serious case ,
and doubts are entertained of her recov
ery. She is the eldest daughter of Bar
ney Grahl.
The damage to the house of Mr , Geiso
by the lire is about $100.
The Broadway Bridge.
Engineer Moore , of the Broadway
Brldgo company , returned last evening
from Omaha , whore ho has been nutting
In a full week surveying for the approach
and viaduct of the new wagon and street
car bridge. The council having givtin
the company its choice between Douglas
and Dodge streets , the necessity has
arisen of running lines and levels to de
termine which of these two streets would
be the most practical and best. Engin
eer Moore finished his estimates last
evening. Ho says that lie finds that the
extra length of viaduct , and other ex
penses for using Douglas street , foot up
over $ .20,000 more than by using Dodge
street.
"Then that settles It iu favor of Dodge
street , Air. Moore. "
"Well , that is for the company to de
cide. All I have to do about it is to run
the lines , and report my estimates. I
should hardly think , though , that Doug
las street would be selected , in view of
this additional expense , as there is no
corresponding advantage to bo gained
by the company. "
"How soon will the work bo com
menced ? "
"I expect right away. The contractor
Is hero and preparations are going right
along. The material will begin coming
this week for the substructure. Tools ,
etc. , are already arriving , and material
is expected to reach hero Tuesday. The
substructure of the viaduct will bo done
first , probably before the substructure of
the bridge. "

viction. The other case was decided in
favor of the defendant.
HENRY ALEXANDER COOPER.
A. Sketch of the Tallest Man in
America.
Now York Times : "Tho proper study
of mankind is man. " If that line still
holds true the subject of this letter ought
certainlv to bo entitled to a high degree
of popular examination. He is 8 feet 2
inches in height and weighs 350 pounds.
His hand is 13 inches and his ioot 17
inches long , Henry Alexander Cooper
was born in 18GO , between York and Scar
borough , England. In 1882 he was im
ported to the United States by Adam Fore-
paugh ; was exhibited by him for three suc
cessive years ; was then seduced by P. T.
Barnum to become the greatest and the
highest of his family of giants , and con
tinued with his show two years. The
time came when Colonel Cooper , as in
show phraseology ho is called , tired of
the glory , the publicity , and the profit of
the show business , and last spring , at the
date of the Richmond hotel lire , he went
to Buffalo , N. Y. , and settled down ,
whore , with his wife , he keens a saloon at
13 Eagle street. As might bo supposed ,
the giant draws much custom to his sa
loon for who would not p.iy 5o to see
the tallest man in the land , with a glass
of lager thrown in ? Since "Col. " Cooper
is no longer on exhibition , and does not
now "draw" as an adjunct to anybody's
"show , " it may not be improper to ex
amine his merits and history. People
who are disposed to laugh at
the idea of a "modern giant , " and to re
gard such things as a trick of the show
business , would do well to see Hnnry
Alexander Cooper. The very largest and
tallest skeletons on record and in exist
ence tire those in the Dublin and London
medical schools , neither of which ex
ceeds eight feet one inch in height. Mr.
Cooper is very modest , not at all wishing
to talk about himself , but when tliu di
rect question was asked him. "Do you
claim to bo the tallest man in America ? "
ho answers promptly : "Most certainly 1
do. 1 have traveled for five years with
the largest giants in the largest shows ,
and easily overtopped them all. "
Describing him it is to bo said that he
Is not only tall but awkward , loose
jointed and ungainly. Ho docs not al
ways staud erect , he has to stand straight
before an adequate idea is gained of his
full height. The impression ho produces
on the observer is that ho is not well
filled out. He seems , notwithstanding
his great weight , rather spare for his
height. His features are bold and prom
inent , hair black , complexion between
dark and light , and eyes blue. The
writer la but tin Inch , short of six feet ,
and easily paisod under the giant's out
stretched ami.
The "colonel" is rather reticent and
modest In his spoodh , < " 1 was born
on the English coast , " ho
said , "between York , and Scar
borough. My parent kept an Inn , and
were neither notable for their si/o nor
were cither of my six brothers and sis
ters. I never developed 4iny extraordi
nary growth until thong&of sixteen. At
that time I took a cour\o of cod-liver oil
for a weakness of the system , and 1 think
that nourished andstlnuilatedniy growth.
1 believe 1 have attained uiy full height
now , but expect to thicken and fill out.
I have never specially tried to exert my
strength , but 1 know I am very strong.
There is inouuy to bo made in the show
business , but It crew r.ithcr distasteful to
me , and I was glad to quit it. "
