The Unity guild will meet Friday evening with Mrs. W. Runyon , at her residence on Madison street. All members are requested to bo present. The republican caucuses are to beheld hold Thursday evening. Some confus ion has been caused by the announce ment that they were to bo hold last evening. There were three victims before the police judge yesterday. The cases of Pardo'and Rogers , charged with dis turbing the peace , wore continued. The case of Stringham , for assault , will bo heard this morning. F. M. Hunter , clerk of the- United States court , has taken up quarters in the new county court hoiibc. The court will bo held in one of the rooms of that building until the now government building is completed. Among tho.se named as possible re publican nominees for mayor is C. M. Hurl. It is not known whether he would allow his name to bo oven considered , but if BO ho would bo a very acceptable mayor to many citizens. The democratic city convention meets this afternoon at " o'clock in the city council chamber to nominate a ticket for the coming election. There prom ises to bo little controversy over any of the olllces except that of marbhal. Among the names suggested for the republican nomination for city marshal are L. U. Cousins and A. S. Clough. Botlr are old police olllcors , thoroughly experienced , and as thoroughly honest. Either of them would iill the position well. S. J. Vnnco , who was hit over the head with a shovel in the hands of young Sandel , has ho far recovered as to bo able to resume work. The case against Sundel has bean dropped , as it rppcars that the assault was not wholly unjustifiable , although perhaps a little severe. B. S. Tcrwilligoi- decided to nn- gngo in the commission and fruit busi ness , and has leased the building No.s. 41 and 43 North Main street , formerly occupied by Z. T. Lindnoy. He wiil open at once. N. E. Lcaman , who has had much experience , and who is one of the most active young men in this line , will bo connected with this new house. It seems conceded that Mayor Rohrer will bo rcnominatcd. Ho has announced that ho cannot servo as mayor unless the salary is made somewhat in proportion tion to the amount of work demanded , but thus far there has been no change made in the pay roll by the council. The present salary is certainly no temp tation for any man who has other busi ness to attend to. The Woman's Christian association provides a gustatory entertainment for the lawyers' banquet at the formal opening of the now court house Wednes day , March 7. Mrs. Ross and Mrs. Phclps have the management of the tables , assisted by others. Ladies of city will bo called on during the week by various committees to assist in pro viding. The proceeds over and above expenses will be used for charitable purposes. Mr. T. D. Butler , cashier of the Chicago cage , Milwaukee & St. Paul at this point , was on Monday evening married to Miss Ella A. .TelToris , daughter of Dr. JoITeris. The ceremony took place at the residence of the bride's sister , Mrs. E. B. Porter , on Fourth avenue , and was performed by Rev. G. W. Crofts in the presence of the relatives only. A wedding supper was spread and the other details of the occasion were so ar ranged as to make the evening a joyous ono throughout. Chief Mullen has a'dopted the tactics which used to bo employed by Wes Jackson when ho was chief of police. Mullen now slips out of his room after the boys suppose ho has gone to bed and takes a glide around the various beats. lie is said to have gained much valua ble information as to what the members of the force are doing , and is thus able to determine for himself who is attending to his business and who are the sleepi est. Since so much has been said about Mullen's elHciency or inolltcioncy ho has been discovering in his quiet way about the elHciency of his subordinates.

Moore , proprietor of the Delmonlco hotel on Broadway , is mourning the departure of ono of his guests. lie mourns also the departure of a $40 ovorco.it and $2.00 borrowed money , beside the eatibles consumed by said boarder during his week's stay at that hostelry all of which went away together and none of which were paid for by the wily guest. A week ago last Monday a utrangor came to Mr. Moore and requested accommodations. Ho gave hix name as W. II. McCullough , iind said ho had been engaged in the iifjricultural implement business at Geneva , Neb. Ho claimed he had mot with llnancial reverses and was forced to seek employment elsewhere. Ho was practically without money and Mr. Moore loaned him $2.00 to meet present necessities. Ho visited the various implement' houses hero and in Omaha iind finally found work in the latter place. This position ho was to take on Monday last. Sunday evening at 8:30 : o'clock ho took his effects and left the house. Soon after his departure the proprietor's coat was missed. Then a neighbor came in and told of seeing a man run ning through the alley with a coat over his arm. As soon as possible Mr. Moore gave an alarm and tried to head the fellow off in Omaha. Monday ho spent in Omaha searching for his coat and its wearer , but thus far they linvq not been found. McCullough is described as a matt of medium height , light complexioned - ploxioned , has a brown moustache and is about thirty years of age. Moore olTers a handsome reward for his capture.

Yesterday morning H. A. Baird , the confectionery dealer at 62 ! { Broadway , entered the billiard room of the Pacific house in search of a friend. He was there accosted by Sid Stringham and asked to play a game of pool. He de clined the invitation , but the other in sisted , and a game was played , resulting in favor of Baird. The lovs of the game nettled Stringham considerably , and during the progress of next game , which was a "call shot , " there were some words over a certain shot , and whan Baird was not looking , String- ham turned bis cue and struck him a terrific blow on the right temple. Baira was felled to the floor uncon scious. Ho was taken upstairs and placed in bed and Dr. Emends sum moned to attend him. The left eye was completely closed and discolored , and a lump the si/.e of an egg showed whore the blow fell. Ho was able to sit up during the afternoon , and will probably experience no evil olVects from the un provoked and cowardly attack , than being disfigured for acouple of weeks. Stringham , after hitting Baird , ran out of the room and tried to muko his escape. Marshal Gtianella chanced to bo in the hotel olllco and started after the follow , and a crowd quickly joined in the chase. Guanella followed him over onto Mynstor street , and as the fel low would not stop fired his revolver twice , but was careful not to hit him. Stringham was then overhauled by the marshal and submitted to arrest without a struggle. Stringham is a cook by trade , and when not drinking is a hard worker and saves his _ money. When ho starts to drinking he is the ugliest sort of a fol low and no one is safe who comes in con tact with him. Ho worked for a time at the Kiel hotel , and was arrested there for raising a great row. Lately ho has been at work at the Creslo'n house , and was discharged the llrst of the week for being ugly drunk. Ho was paid the balance duo him , $15 , and seems to have proceeded to use his money in keeping full of fighting whisky. Ho was not drunk enough , however , not to fully realize what ho was doing. Mr. Baird is Known to be one of the most quiet , peacablo citi/.ons in the commu nity. Ho is slight built , and this makes the assault more aggravated. Travelers ! Stop at the Bechtclo.

The closing ovidenc'o in the Hoffman case was introduced yesterday. The defendant was on the stand in the fore noon and told his version of the affair , which bore out naturally his claim ol solf-dofonso. Some other witnesses uere called in rebuttal of some minor points of testimony introduced by the defense. Shortly after 2 o'clock in the afternoon both sides rested , and the ar guments began. The expectation is that the case will not be given to the jury before to-morrow afternoon , and not probably before late in the after noon. After this case is finished the trial ol Adams for stealing horses belonging to Chris Durr will bo tried. Adams has felt rather nlcased at the strike on the Kansas City road , ns ho thought that the witnesses against him would bo un able to got hero , and without their presence and testimony the road to lib- caty seemed very plain. They sur prised him yesterday by appearing here ready to testify. They came by teams , and will remain until wanted by the state. It is thought that in view ol their presence here ho will plead guilty , and throw himself on the mercj of the rourt. After the Adamscaso the trial of Hall , the alleged confidence man , will come on. If you want to trade , sell , buy or rcnl call on W. W. Bilger , Everett block. Dr. R.

When the deputy sliorills having ii charge the squad of prisoner among whom was Monroe , the burglar , arrlvoi at the penitentiary , they were surprised to see several of the convicts shake hands with him , and upon inquiring learned that he was discharged from there about three months ago , having been sent up before from Carroll count. ) by Judgu'Loafbourow. who also passed his present suntciico la this city. .lie was out of the pen but a few weeks when ho attempted to burglarize the cflldonco ol W. A. Matirer , but made a mistake in being caught ana will lead a equestered life for the next four years. Vhon arrested he wan immediately set lown by the itolieo as an old criminal , mil the result shows that they were not nistakcn. . _ _ The Strikers lilt Hard. The striking engineers and firemen on the l'Q' ' still hold out , although everything about the roundhouse and 'ards IB as quiet as can bo. Now men uvvo been secured to take the places of ho strikers , and all passenger trains vcro running yesterday as usual , with , ho exception of the flyer. In the morn- tip the company placed Deputy Mar- ihnl Clough in charge of" the round- louse with instructions to admit none nit those employed in the building in liking care of the engines. In conversation with a HIB : reporter Mr. Clough stated that the object of ceoplng people out of the building was is much for tnc protection of the strikers in of the company , tit otherwise \\ould ) o filled with curious OUCH , and if any nischlef was done it would certainly bo charged to the strikers. After the trikers were ordered out of the rouml- louse in the morning they stayed away 'rom there , and created no disturbance whatever. The following communication was received at the ollico of General Agent M. M. Marshall : NOTICE. ST. JosRi-ii , Mo. , Feb. 2S , 18S8. All cnpin- ccrs nnd firemen recently in the company's ' service who do not apply for positions by I'J o'clock , noon , of Wednesday , February lifl , IW > S will bo. considered out of the company's service. Such men as have not implied for work by the ubovo hour can Ret nil pay duo them upon application to the muster me chanics of the rouds upon which they may l ave been employed , W. F. Mnntiu , , General Manager. Orders have also been issucd _ to all station agents to post notices in large letters in conspicuous places , forbidding all persons not in the employ of the company from trespassing on the prem ises of the company , also signed by General Manager Merrill. The outgoing morning trains were over an hour late in leaving , having to wait for the Union Paclic. Master Mechanic Birdenstcin was yesterday running the switch engine in the yards. Ho returned from his trip of the day before without any further attempt being made at Pacific .function to arrest him. Attorney C. llaldaro and \V. F. Sapp , jr. , went to Pacific Junction on a hand car to bo ready to meet any case that might bo brought iigainst him there , but the trip was a needless ono , as the threatened prosecu tion for not stopping at the crossing , was not pressed. No freights were moving yesterday , and there seems no prospect of an early resumption. An engineer took the tl88B" out of the roundhouse , but was unable to work the injector , and had to back in again and take out the " 37. " An examination showed that the screen over the bo < o was completely covered with dirt. The wipers at the roundhouse stated that the cau'-c was not to be avoided , and might have happened at any time. Several of the enginen seem to be in a chronic state of ill-repair. There was little work done in the yards until afternoon. Then a man ap peared and applied for work. Ho bad run an engine before the war , ho paid , and thought ho had not forgotten how to handle the throttle. The yard en gine was given him and ho mounted the cab and run her out on the tracks. Hero ho was met by some seventy-live strikers. The engine wan stopped and they tried to argue him out of nis po.-.i- tioii. He maintained his position , and notwithstanding the fact that at every step his engine was surrounded and every peaceable effort made to induce him tojibandon his engine he continued until night. During the day and evening the headquarters of the strikers nt Smith's hull on Sixteenth avenue was kept open and was used as a loafing nlnce. Ono of the striking engineers informed a BKK reporter that the men were en tirely satisfied with the outlook , and were fixed for a three months' strike , and longer if necessary. They ex pected a long fight when they quit work , and still adhere to that belief. The track leading from the main line of the Chic-aero , Burlington < & Quincy to ' the warehouse of David Bradley 'ft Co. was torn up yesterday , but the break was discovered before any accident re sulted. - * - Domestic patterns ut 105 Main street. The "Woodmen's Ball. The reception and ball of the Modern Woodmen , last evening at the Masonic temple was a grand affair. The largo hall was completely filled , the specta tors encroaching a little on the dancing floor. Omaha sent a delegation of sixty- fourcouplos. The tables in the supper room presented u very unique and pleas ing sight. The plates and many of the other dishes were of wood. cocoanut shells were manufactured into very pretty sugar bowls and cream pitchers. The boys from the North western turned out some neat black walnut cake baskets. Probably the prettiest and most appropriate article on the table was a fruit dish made by George Grow , yard master at the "Q. " It was made of black and white woods nnd was decorated with the emblems of the order. Everything was in keeping throughout , and the camp scores another grand success/ S. B.

The committee on preparing - paring a circular letter asked and were granted further time in which to report. The committee on constitution and by- Iowa reported.

Reiwrt received and further time granted. A communication from Broom Broth ers , asking for the donation of the Der rick pro | > erty to them to establish their works upon it was read.

It is expected that ho will return to partici pate in the dedicatory exercises , which would bo incomplete without him. To him , as much or more than to any othbr man , this county is indebted for having secured so excellent a building for so little money. Ho has zealously watched the county's Interests , and his faithful ness and ability have been of great value to the taxpayers. He should by all means bo present when the great house-warming takes placo. Dreams Worth Having. "I knew two dreams to come true under peculiar circumstances once , " said a well-known lawyer of Paterson , N. J. , "and ever since then I haven't been much of a skeptic in matters of that kind. Some years ago , Dexter , Lambert & Co. , the silk mill owners of Paterson , had a foreman in their mill named Peter Turner. Heas a man of eccentric habits , very taciturn , and never Informed even his wife and fam ily of his business affairs. Ono day ho went fo Clifton , two or three miles be low Palcrson. Ho started back home after dark , walking on the Erie railway tiack. When near Patcrcon he wa"s struck by the locomotive of a freight train and instantly killed. "A few days before his death Turner had received between $400 and MOO by Dexter , Lambert & Co. Only a few dollars lars \\cre found on his person when his dead body was picked up , and he bad given hi.s wife but iHo. What disposi tion he hud made of the bujancc of the money lie had received no ono knew. Ho was not a man of dissolute or extrav agant habits , and had been the recipi ent of a large salary for years , yet after his funeral expenses \\ero paid his family was left penniless. 'That ' Turner must bave had considerable money de posited or invested somewhere was cer tain , but no trace of it i-oulil be found. "Jumps Houarth was a near neighbor of the Turners , and a close friend of the dead man. Aoek or two nftcr Turn er's death Tlownrth went to Mrs. Turner ono morning and told her that her late husband had appeared to him in adream the night before and made a singular revelation. " 'My family is in need of some money , ' the apparition had said , ac cording to Howarth , 'and I will supply Ihem with enough to help them over their need for a little while. If they will go to the cellar of their house they will Iind , under a pile ol rubbish , a tin blacking box. In that there is 81oO. ' "Howarth said that then Turner's ap parition disappeared. A search was made as directed , and the tin blacking box and $150 were found. A further search of the cellar and premises was made in hope that more money might be discovered , but without success. A month or so later Howarth had another dream , in which Turner appeared to him again , and directed him to dig in once corner of the gardenwhere ho would find $100 in a paper package. The money was found. Those two sums were nil that were over discovered of Turner's savings. Howarths dreams made n grent sensation in the city , and some suspicious persons interpreted them in n way that reflected somewhat on Howarth and gave the impression that ho had u knowledge of the entire amount of the Turner money which was not given him by dreams ; but that was nonsense , for Howarth was an honest and unassuming mechanic , incapable of such trickery. Besides , if ho was aware of the disposition Turner had made of his own money and could take advan tage of it to his own benefit , why should ho have voluntarily despoiled himself of $2-30 of it by revealing his wherea bouts to Turner's family ?
