VIJJBTA.HU HATCX , Mass. , Juno S4. Fo
several days there have been evidences of

nimllo ot woman's clothing was picked up
on the beach nt Kdtjortown , nnd a life preserver -
server that came from the City of Rome was

; rcon nnd slate color Is coming ashore
in the island. Among that found at
Smith Point to-day wcro ( tilt molding
n considerable quantities , ono largo dorir
with three ground gltm circular top light * ,
ono window sash , .evidently belonging to
some steamer , nnd also steamer Victoria
jllis of lading. Wlno cards of the steam
ship Huyttcn Republic were washed ashore
at Nnntuckct to-day. Everything points to
n collision between the Victoria and the
liny lion Republic , though the life preservers
belonging to the City of Homo n.tds to the
mj story enveloping the supposed disaster.
HVJ/Kll GOT SATISFACTION.
It U'HH Dunlt Out to Him In
Dimes by n Hnrti'iulnr.
"Don't give him a thing ; not u thing. "
"I suppose I can buy n drink If I want to ,
can't 1 t "
"Aot in this houso. You cannot have any
thing. "
"All right. "
Then there was a pause.
"Well , have something with me , " said the
man who llrst vetoed the order nt the bar.
It was John W. Uylor , und ho was under the
Inlluence , etc.
" 1'hls Is u friend of mine , " ho continued ,
addressing the bartender at the Paxton hotel
yesterday evening. The ccntloman in the
starched linen wus Stove Crowe. Ho is a
modest , unassuming mini , but slnco
it has leaked out that ho
whipped a crowd of fourteen men in Chi
cago. people with pugilistic tendencies lu
Omaha have studiously left him alono.
'This mun lives in the mountnlns-contln-
ued Hylor , "but I used to know Him in Penn
sylvania. " Ho spoke of the gentleman whom
ho first refused a lemonade.
Then the two renewed acquaintance and
punished several largo drinks. finally
Hylcr's funds run out nnd they drank an
other bowl or two nt tils friend's expense.
"I've been full for thrco days , "said Hyler ,
who , by the way , figured in n scandal n few
weeks ago in which an lowu feui.tle stenog
rapher was n party of the second part , "and
I don't ' believe I over wus so drunk In my
life us I wus nt Council Uluffs yesterday. "
Well , .yesterday ho and his Pennsylvania
friend from thu Rockies talked for some
time. They drunk , shook dice , etc. , nnd
llnnlly ho usued Stove Crowe tor $5. It
seems he had been doing some legal business
for Crowe , but had done it in suun a bungle-
some way that Crowe remarked , "If I were
a lawyer I'd attend to my business In the
day time , at least. If 1 wanted to get drunk ,
I'd do It at night , or when I got through
work. "
"What do you know about it , you -
sucker I If you pay uny thing to mo I'll put a
hole through you. "
"You will I" asked Crowe , nnd ho runout
from behind the bar.
"If you mnko any threats against my life
again I'll kicjk the stulHn' out of you , " said
Ciowi * .
The two wcro separated and Crowe started
to lolurn behind the bar , when Hyler made
some other insulting remark. Crowo re
turned und thu two ollnchod. Uyler was
thrown against the bar and his head rested
on a cuspidorc. Still no damage was done
and no blood spilled. Then thu two got on
their feet uculn and Crowe struck Hyler four
times , when Bylor pulled a derringer
revolver. Crowo grubbed his handso did
another spectator.
"Don't you shoot , " snld the only other
spectator present , ttyler's friend having es
caped.
The men were then separated and Hyler.
u little the worse for wear , was let out of
the hotel.
Half an hour later ho returned , after tak
ing nhother series of bowls. What then oc
curred is needless to particularize on. Ho
had been relieved of his revolver and
returned for satisfaction. Ho got it. When
ho started around the bar after Crowo , the
latter met him , und the blood stains on ilia
Ice chest und lloor showed that Byler's blood
was carmine. When Crowo got through
wltluhim , Dr. Leo devoted hulf an hour to
the lawyer's case , and then ho was taken
homo in u cab. His face , when he had cot
"satisfaction , " resembled the railroad map
of Nebraska.
Knin Sninll't ) Audience Too Kinalf.
About n dozun persons turned out Id-it
cvcaing to hear the well known tcmpjrniu'o
talker , Sum Small , and , as the lecturer him
self expressed it , ho "did not care to lecture
merely to nay hall rent , " so the talk xvus
postponed until tills evening. Mr. Small also
decided to give all his lectures free hereafter
in Omuhu , und says thut If he "can't make
any money for tuo Open Door , ho can at
least do some good. "

Rlndwin Wants IIU Children.
The Glauwin-Wilson adultery ease was
briefly resurrected yesterday. Gladwln ap-
yeared at the police station and asked Judge
Aylesworth to grant him the custody of his
children. The court , told him to go und take
them. It seems that Gludwin had two
children when ho married his present wife ,
nnd It is these ha desires to get. The two
by his second wife ho is willing to allow to
remain whore they are. When Gladwin
was told to go and got the children ho re
quested to have an odluor sent with him.
Said ho : " 1 wont down there n few nights
ngo and there were four or five men walking
around with guns sticking out of their pock
ets , nnd she suid they were going to kill mo.
I don't want to go around ttioro when the
neighbors uro ull feeling like that , for I
might get hurt. "
"Tluit was only a bluff , " replied his honor ,
"nnd you noon't bo afraid of any shooting ,
although tliero is no question but that it
would bo tno good for you. If those are your
children und you can properly provide for
them , you can mive them. "
The woman has applied to the superin
tendent of the poor for assistance. Ho
wrote to DCS Molncs concerning them , and
learned that she was not deserving of pecu
niary aid. The writer stated that the woman
had n very tough reputation In' that city ,
and that h'or children would bo cured for if
they wcro sent bade there. Superintendent
Hurdln wus requested to forward them
there and send the bill. This will bo douo
as soon as the youngest child is able to go.
The wjiolo case is badly mixed up.

Tito lOntltustiiHtiu ClnuitniHUHins.
Monday morning opened rather dismally
for the Chautauiuux grounds. A heavy rain
descended for fully three hours after day
light , rendering It anything but pleasant get
ting about the grounds during tno day. Fuw
of the disadvantages or discomforts of the
privlous rains wcro noticed , ns ample pro
visions had been made for It , and there was
no wind to do any daniugo in blowing down
tents or scattering property.
The nttcndanco wus very fair considering
the weather , and the programme was car
ried through without a break , ns originally
planned. In the city many expressions of
pity were hoard for the "unfortunates" on
the grounds , but the so-called unfortunates
were in no need of sympathy. They enjoyed
their location and their general condition of
thing * ) , und after tha sun cumo all dampness
and damage vanished together.
The evening sermon , Sunday , preached by
Rev. J. C. W. Coxo , D. D. , of Washington ,
In. , from the words , "What Think Vo of
Christ ! " was In nothingBbchind the effort of
the bishop who preached iti the morning.
The speaker pursued the same course as his
predecessors on the Uhautauqua platform
u philosophical and scientific treatment of
his subject. On every side yesterday com
pliments wcro heard on the line judgment
of the doctor in handling his subject ns ho
did. The tabernacle ivas nearly half occu
pied , showing that tha majority of the people
stayed to see the ch'J !
Monday morning Syas blue in the city but
there was nothing blue at the Chautauqun
grounds. The visitors waded through u littlu
mud to get to morning1 services and break
fast. The ChiiiitnUu.buns' . heroic no
flinching , no fuilurejof programme , rain or
shino. So 0 o'clock : tbJs morning found Dr.
Coxo at the "round" tent. Ho taught the
first year's normal class lessons in the bible
geography , and the theory and practice of
Sunday school teaching. Hev Mr. Tranter
led the boys und girls class , and the inter
mediate class at the Congregational head
quarters at the same hbur.
Nine n. in. daily brings the largo company
of Dean Wright's followers to the tabernacle
to engage in assembly bible study. The doun
will to-day dcerlbo the four years' course of
study in the English bible by the scientific
method a corresuofidenco school by which
lie continues through the year to iissociatoJ
witb his students , „ to help , encourage aml'J
direct them. The series of studies nro illus'
trativo of the method , and will xvoll repay
those coming to the assembly to come to
this exorcise and get the help of Dean
Wright.
Prof. Cumnock was on the grounds and
formed his classes in elocution at the round
tent nt 10 o'clock. At the same hour Prof.
Case met the chorus class on thb platform.
At It a. m. there wus n lecture by Uov. H.
W. Lamar , on "Forty Years in Dixie Ue-
fore , During and Since the War. " The lecb-
uro begun with life first year of the speaker
and continued in the fullest description of the
forty years of his life la Dixio. His lust

CrlmliinlBiiiii District Uourr.
In the district court ; yesterday luoraing the
contempt case against Henry Hoist was
taken up. The defendant entered u plea of
guilty and wus committed to the county jail
to uwait sentence. Hoist wus enjoined sev
eral months ago from dispensing any more
budge In Iowa , but saw fit to disregard the
order of the court. Slnco that tltno ho has
sold liquor at several different places , but
wus not troubled bv the odlcers until rct-
cently. Ho also had a llttlo trouble with his
bondsmen , on account of n sudden und unex
pected trip to Omaha some days ago.
His bond was furnlnhcd by Mrs. Amy , and
ho became rather suspicious that Hoist Intended -
tended to romniii uwtiy. > Uo sent for him
nnd ho ruluriicu to Inu Blullrf. As Soon as ho
was In the hands of tha authorities and had
pleaded guilty the bond was not again forth
coming , and the defcndunt had to bo locked
up. Ho will bo sentenced the latter part of
week. It begins to look us though tliero wus
not as much money us formerly In monkey
ing with tuo prohibition buzz saw.

Jail cusos , whore the parlies indicted nro

to thus dispose of a few cases which would
rcqulro at least a wcolc for trial and where
the defendants nro out on bail.
In the afternoon the case of the State vs
Shields , charged with assault with intent to
do gr.eat bodily injury , was called. The do-
fcndunt Is ono of the parties charged with
brutally assaulting James Connor in front of
the Mint on the night of March 17. There

The remainder of tno woeit will bo occupied

Picknil Up by the 1'ollce.
A more varied grist was ground out In the
police court yesterday morning than for
some tlmo previously. In addition to the
drunks and vugs , of which there were sev
eral , there were a number who were charged
with more serious offenses.
Fred Stone , a rapid young man from
Gotham , paid $7.00 for disturbing tno peace.
Sadie Curd , the excitable prostitute who
created such a lively disturbance Sunday
evening In the vicinity of the deaf nnd dumb
institute , wus cinched for S15.70 , nnd D.
Roberts , ono of the men who was with her ,
was mulcted to the tune of 510.10 to pay for
his experience.
J. H. Grade was lot off with a fine of S7.CO ,
tGrado and Tom O'Hrlen ' wcro urrestcd for
disturbing tbo peace Sunday niijht , nnd both
were tried for the offense. The testimony
was to the effect that O'Hrlon acted wholly
on the defensive , and ho was accordingly
discharged.
Charles Hicks was another peace dis
turber , and ho was given § 1.00 worth.
Maggie Stewart , a cadaverous looking fe
male , was charged with haunting houses of
ill-fame , but she denied It and claimed to bo
a domestic. The court declared Unit her story
would not wash , and let her down forSlU.lU.
John Dempscy was charged with being un
duly familiar with the festive Maggie , but as
he denied that ho hid ever been bound by
matrimonial ties , the charge of adultery was
deemed u little premature , and John's case
was continued.
. Charles Young was booked for stealing two
rings from the person of u fust young woman ,
who swore out a warrant for his arrest. The
case was heard by 'Squire Schurz , who
bound the prisoner over to the grand Jury in
the sum of . * oOO , which was too much for his
pocketbootc and ho went to Jail.
