Wcrmcr , both of Omnhn. were married yesterday by Squire Harnctt. The bride objected to the customary osculation by admiring male friends. The warmer weather causes a marlccd In crease In the number of Inquirers after real estate. Tlio dealers report that their bust- iiCB.s is moro quickly and more noticeably affected by weather than any other line of trade. It begins to look ns if those who wore so confident that they could gobble Fairmount park are not getting It as easily no they thought. It will bu some tlmo yet before they will see their way clear to begin to soil off lots , and make improvements. The Council HlulTn paint oil nnd glass com pany has put into use one of the most at tractive nnd convenient delivery wagons jtecn on the streets. It was built by llatten- hauer , and Is so arranged that it can bo used cither with side stakes or with a regular wagon box. It looks quite hopeful for the motor lino. The recent discussions have clearly developed the fact that public opinion is in favor of helping Mr , IJcc'iI In every way to pusli the line to a speedy completion. The action of the railways in trying to prevent this has caused much indignation , in view of the many favors which have been granted the railway companies. Arrangements are being made by which the Omaha committee of the board of trade will visit and Inspect the Chautnuqua assem bly grounds here as soon as favorable weather and rends permit. It involves a capital stock of $1,000.000 and such attrac tions and accommodations as shall draw thousands to the grounds from all parts of the west. Before the smoke stack can bo put onto the new government building the tower will 'bo too black to need it. At the rate in which most of the work about the building has been done , it is likely that by the time the government advertises for bids and awards the contract for putting up the smoke stack and the contractor llnishcs his work there Will bo no tower to blacken nnd none to save. 'lliis season the park commissioners will have new walks put through Uavliss park. This will be appreciated by the many who pass throuch that pleasant resort. It is not yet decided what material will bo used. Koine want to have cedar blocks , and some the hard-burned bricks , or tiles , such ns are in the sidewalk in front of ICcating's store. They have been down now four years and Bhow no signs of wear. It is thought that they can bo put down cheaper than cedar blocks. ThoJ. D.

They wore met moro than half way , but now want a niero ex hibition race , as they think that such a lively team as tlio HlufTs boys "would prove a peed drawing card , and might get their cash. " The Nntlck team goes thiough here on the 17th of June , after attending the tournament nt Clinton. It is possible that u race will bo arranged to take place hero.

IB It a Suicide ? | ' John Bress , a German twenty-eight years of age , in the employ of John Kvcrs , the South Main street butcher , has disappeared and it ia thought that ho has suicided , as his mental condition has been rather off for some timo. On Tuesday morning he left the market with a load of meat to bo delivered to mj. customers. > After delivering his load ho drove to the river near Big hike , where he unharnessed his horses and hitched them to the rear end of the wagon. Mrs. .1. W. Brown , the wife of a boatman living in that vicinity , wit nessed the operation and states that Hess afterward started off toward the river. Tills was the last seen of him , and it is feared that ho terminated his life In the muddy waters of the Missouri. Ho had been drinking heavily for several days and 'i' waa subject to occasional fits , and it is the fc general belief that ho sought to kill himself whllo suffering from one of these attacks. Bress has no relatives in this country , and has been unusually despondent of late. A searching party was organized yesterday afternoon to visit the scene of his supposed Htilcido nnd sco if anything new could bo as certained as to the cause of his disappear ance , The team which ho drove has been re turned to the owner. Residents of that vicinity , who saw Bress drive along , sup posed ho was out on n hunting expedition. and thought no more about it until lie failed to return , Ah Tlicict hook Now.

At noon yesterday the Missouri river at the new bridge was nearly sixteen feet above low water mark , but shortly after that time it began to subside. When at its highest point it was within fifty feet of the power house of the bridge company , and began to look as though thcro would soon bo lively times in that vicinity. The upper pump house of the waiter works company has been taken down and moved back onto the knoll , as the water raised far above its former lo cation. This move has to bo made every year , so the boiler nnd engines are kept enrollers rollers , and whenever a change is necessary a pair of horses are hitched on and the move is made. The housu is made in sections , hooked together , and the whole building and contents can be moved in an incredibly short space of timo. The water rose yesterday over the levee of the water works company , and ( lowed through the conduit to the subsiding lake , doing away with the services of the pumps at the river. The banks around the lake was built up higher by a force of men in the morning to prevent a washout , and both the reservoir at the head of Glen avenue and the two subsidiary reservoirs at the pumping station wcro ordered filled , to insure clear water in case the lake is washed out. If this should happen it would not cut off the water supply , but would prevent the perfect settling of the water. * Catch On to This.

"Work For the Recorder. Yesterday there were moro instruments filed in the county recorder's oflIco than on any previous day in the history of the county. One transaction a'ono caused 103 to be placed on record , It was the s.ilo by the East Omaha Lund company of the property which was recently platted , and concerning which BO many curious questions recently arose among attorneys , the land being a part of Iowa , but by a change in the course of the river it is now located on thoothor side of the Missouri. The property was deeded to George W. Steele. and ho gave back a mort gage on each of the lots , thus causing tlio number of instruments presented for llling to form a big bundle. Tlio recorder is also perplexed about the recent mutilation of the pint book , by which the plats and dedication ccrtillcatc.s of Kid dle's sub division and Williams' first have disappeared , The county board has decided that it is useless to get any act of the legisla ture to legalize tlio recording of copies of these plats. There are copies to bo had , and also copies of the dedication certificates , and aflldavits can bu secured that they ore exact copies. There Is a good deal of wonderment as to what could have been the purpose of the person who thus stole tlio plats , und hardly less wonder as to what will bo the effect. A liberal reward is offered for the discovery of the offender. These records are necessarily placed whcro the public can Inspect them , and yet ns there is always some one of the officials in the oftice , it seems a very bold piece of work to cut these plats out of the bcok in which they are bound. Give It Permanency. Father P. B. McMenumy and three of the sisters connected with St. Bernard's hospi tal visited the eastern part of the city yes terday and looked over the Gciso residence property to see If it could easily bo con verted into a hospital. They were very much pleased with both building and grounds and if suniclcnt financial assistance is given them , will make a purchase. Mr. Gciso oskn $15,000 for the property , one-half cash. The location Is admirably suited to the purpose intended , and thcro Is ample. ground , ( nearly three acres ) for the erection of an industrial school and other needed buildings. A com mittee is to bo appointed to solicit subscrip tions , and It is hoped that the citizens will respond spend quite liberally when called uton. | The hospital has now been established hero nearly six months , and the work that has been done can not fail to commend itself to all. The need of such an institution In this city Is readily apparent nnd it is believed that the city will give nmiilo evidence ) of its desire to have St. Bernards' located hero permanently , Personal Paragraphs.

FOUT SMITH , Ark. , April 5 , On Wednes day last in Lowson county , Choctaw nation , Thomas Prmglo was murdered while in the woods getting out board timber , being shot from ambush. A young girl who was with him failed to sco the assassin , owing to the dense undergrowth surrounding the spot , nnd ho escaped for a tlmo. Friends of the murdered man soon gathered , and , going to the spot whence the shot came , discovered the tracks of the assassin , which were very plain in tlio soft ground. Deputy United States Marshal Enis examined the footprints , which showed that the murderer wore n pair of boots , the soles of which had been driven full of largo round headed tacks. By counting the tacks it was further discov ered that in one boot was twenty-one , and in the other fourteen. The murderer's trail was then taken up and followed to the field of a negro , Albert Smith , and then to Smith's house. This led -to the nrrest of Smith himself , nnd an examination of the boots ho wore proved that ho was the murderer. Ho acknowledged to tlio officer that ho did the deed , nnd thnt Charles Marshall , another negro , furnished him tlio gun and ndvisod him to do it. Pringle had abused Smith for sonic crookedness. Marshall was arrested as an accessory to the crime , and both wcro lodged In jail hero to-day. A Minnesota Zopliyr. WATEHVII.LB , Minn. , April 4.
