2. Where , in thu examination in chlflf of i
witness , a question li asked to which ohjec

iesiring the evidence must offer to provi
the facts sought to be 'established , befor
' ' ' irror can IM assigned uj > on such ruling.- '
' .a. Whore a coupeteiif ' .vltueas'ls callci

IlKIEF ITKMS.
A young man named Riodan became
nvoived in trouble last night , lie bor-
owed his parents' horse tifter dark bor-
'owcd a harness from u neighbor in the
amo way , and borrowed II. 11. Dean's
larriago without the asking. In the
morning when Mr. Detn : discovered his
loss he notified the sheriff , and when just
about Uftclcgraph to look out for liorso
thieves the carriage was found in another
purtof the city smashed to kindling.
The horse had been found loose in the
treots by the police , nnd the harness was
1 wreck , It was an expensive lark for
ho young man , who wants to settle for
ho property destroyed and avoid prose
cution.
The statement was mude to the BKI ;
'esterday that a woman with four child-
'en ' , who lived on the bottoms in thu
western part of the city was arrested by
ho police as a prostitute. As thu state
ment goes she had f 5 which was taken
Irom her nnd she was told to como to
headquarters and pay the balance of the
line when she earned it. Having been
leprived of what money she had she
begged some bread for her children and
then noignbors wcro secured to look
after them while the woman earned
enough money to keep out of jail.
Track laying has commenced on two
new lines of street railway within the
past week , and the improvements of this
'
character go on interrupted by the so'ng
of the croaker who sings the loudest
when ho fails to unload at a moment's
time property at double its cost.
A colored man named Butts reclined
_ n jail yesterday awaiting a heaving for
stealing some shirts from a furnishing
house und in lighting an olHcer when ar
rest was made. Ho was aa tough a man
to handle as the police often run across.
The S. S. Hadluy company , of Cedar
Rapids , Boona county , tiled articles of
incorporation yesterday. Capital stock ,

3 , The ZtthHr.
Musical Record : The zither , that
pretty little flat harp which is now taught
in our cities , and which HO many young
ladies are learning , originated in the
Alpine countries , and was , toward the
middle of our century , used by travel
ing Tyrolese singers as an accompani
ment to their songs and yodels. Even
to-day , when ono sees the graceful young
girl seated at the table , practicing her
zither , and hears those wild chorda , an
Aluine scone raises before the eyes and
transfers the modest lusthetic interiar , in
charming dreamlike transformation , to
rushing streams , pine forests' , blue peaks
and snow mountains , that scenejy of the
Tyrol and Switzerland which a of till
things most lovely.
