The case of Charles Curtis nnd Emma
Woodward was triud before Squire Hon-
dricks yesterday nftornoon. They wore
charged with vagrancy and adultery. The
charge was preferred by Mrs. Curtis , but
Bho afterward repented of it nnd devoted
herself to getting her husband out ot the
toils of the law. Sue withdrew the charge
of adultery nnd begged for the release of
bcr faithless spouse. She stated thnt thu
Woodward woman was left nlono , nnd she
necoininodntlngiy sent her husuund down to
keep the womnn company so that she would
not bo lonesome. The court then released
Curtis , but warned him that if another case
of the kind was brought it would not bo well
for the defendant to appear in his court for
trial. The woman was lined $5 and costs ,
nnd lu default of payment was sent to Jail.

Ilii ! Political Outlook.
"Tho political pot will soon bo sizzling at a
great rate. " remarked n republican leader
last evening. "Candidates ! Oh , there will
be any nmount of them. Don't think for a
minute that wo will have to go begging for
them. It Is n llttlo early yet to tell Just who
is in the race on the republican side of the
fence , but there will bo a full Held of start
ers when they got the word. The democrats
arc already busily at work pulling the wires
that oucht to bring somotlilng to somebody.
"It is quite ensy to piek out some of thuir
candidates a long way in advance. The
present incumbents will undoubtedly all DO
candidates far re-election. | Plumer has made
a good treasurer , and iiu has already held
tlio ollico two terms , but that is ull that can
be urged ncralnst him. If we can not haven
republican I would like to sue him given
another two years ; but between .you and mo
nnd the rising moon , Tom Howmun Is a can
didate for the olllcu ana he is going to make
a hard light. for ttio nomination.
You see , lingoes out of thu postoOlec before
very long , and ho is already working to pre
pare another berth.
"For the other two principal ofliecs , audi
tor and sheriff , the present incumbents have
every reason to expert a rinioniiuntion. By
virtue of every precedent they nreeiilltlcd to
it. if Hendriok * has been impioving his time
lu the auditor's ofllce , he ought to have made
n great , many friends out through the coun
try in two years , and his renomiiiation will
depend largely upon how well ho has im
proved that opportunity. Kither Jlmmio
O'Neill or S.un Krum will be sheriff for the
next two years , without the slightest doubt.
ITrum is pretty certain to be nominated by
the republicans , and O'Neill , a * I said be
fore , may well expect n second term. Some
of his unnmlcs will undoubtedly bring ui >
that Jail delivery of l.is > t winter to urge
against him , but his record as n jailor c.in-
not bo equalled In Iowa. Every man who
has hold ollico has necessarily made more or
less enemies , nnd in that respect Krutn will
not hold any advantage over O'Neill ,
as certain actions of his regarding n number
of Bounty roads during his term of ofUco as n
member of the board of supervisors have
made him enemies who may cause him some
trouble. However , I regard it as a dead sure
thing that ho will bo elected if O'Neill does
not gut thu nomination at thu hands of the
democrats , for If tlio enemies of the latter
nnuingo to run tbp convention and squeeze
in sonic ottier nominee , his friends will then
turn in at election , nnd out of revenge will
slaughter the nominee of the convention ,
which will result in the election of a republi
can. In my ! i urn bio opinion , there will bo
homo hard lighting done in the conventions
this year , and that Is where the matter will
virtually bo stalled. In fact , I will be quite
positive of the outcome when I hear the re
sult of the work of the conventions. "

About 11 o'clock lost night a burglar
entered the residence of J. C. Lange , on

to himself a suit of clothes belonging to Mr.
Lango. Ho made the changa forthwith , and
when the family returned homo his cast-oil
garments wore found In a heap on the floor.
Nothing but. the clothes were missed , and the
object of the burglar is amattcrof conjecture.
It Is suspected that ho may have made the
ctmngo for the purpose of concealing his
identity , but nothing Is definitely known.
Ho was gone when the family returned home ,
and his old clothes were the only clue loft by
which to establish his identity.

WASHINGTON , ' ( /gust / 12. [ Special Tolo-
grnm to Tun Hn . ] If Lieutenant Wood , of
the United Stated ftfivy , were nn ofllecr un
der Postmaster pnncral Wannmakor , ho
might bo in dangcV 'of a court martial. A
postmaster gonof/V / who stops malls from
being delivered nt.'lLong Branch on Sunday ,
ns Mr. Wnnnmaltef- said to have done ,
would scarcely tolerate such irreverent nnd
uncvangcllstlo declarations as these Just pub
licly mndo hero b.yj "Lieutenant " Wood. That
naval o nicer , whd "Has been much In China
and the cast , dooms it expedient to publicly
speak as follows of tin ) American mission
aries in China and Corcai
"It Is not extravagant to say that the work
of the missionaries In China and Corcu has
been absolutely without any result except to
hold them up to the ridicule of the natives.
It has bcforo been stated , and I concur In the
belief , thntthcro is not a Chincso convert to
Christianity of sound mind to-day wlthln.tho
entire extent of China. The converts wo
hear of In this country nro merely menials ,
employed about the quarters of the mission
aries , who , for a salary of four dollars per
month , become converts. But when they
are discharged , there is no further evidence
of their 'change of mind. ' The missionaries
do not mix with the natives to any considera
ble extent , and many of their meetings are
not only In English , but with the mission
aries themselves as nn audience. As for a
nobleman of Corcn or n mandarin of China
over acknowledging the Christian faith , such
nUimg | was never heard of. "
"How do the missionaries bring them
selves Into ridicule i"
"As n matter of fact , they are looked upon
about as is the Salvation Army in America ,
only to a decree ten times as great. The
Chinaman , for instance , has n respect for his
language which amounts to reverence. Even
u stray piece of paper with Chinese charac
ters would bo picked up nnd burned. You
will understand with what feelings they re
gard the translation of the bible the mission
aries have prepared for them when vou know
that this Is in n lingo which stands in the
snmo relation to the mandarin tongue or
classical languuiro of the country which Is
used In court and Is the oDIclal language nil
over that country that an obscure negro
dialect of Louisiana stands with classical
English. Only the educated Chincso are
nblo to use this language. They all have the
sumo respect for It , and it la in that the pro-
cents of Confucius are given to the people. "
"How did it happen this mistake was
made * "
"Simply because when the missionaries
located in Fee Chow they learned the
langungeof the locality , and of course could
use no other , either in speech or to write in
making n translation. There is n gradual
change in the Hugos of China , which is seen
distinctly In n distance of fifty miles , but the
tongue of the mandarins Is universally used
by the educated and reverenced by every
one. "
WHY HIi FAIIjISD.
Murphy Tclln How IIU Corn Exniblt
nt I'nrts Fell Through.
Now YOUKAugust 12. Charles J. Murphy ,
who proposed to erect a corn pulaco at the
Paris exposition , to bo devoted to the display
of the various uses of Indian corn as a food
article , writes from Paris explaining why
the project failed. Murphy says :
"Ever since thoPnris , exposition of 1878 ,
when the United States made n very poor
agricultural showing , I have waited for an
opportune time to exemplify to the world
what could be done with our Indian corn as
n human food. I concluded the tiino had
come for this display ut the Paris exposition.
I laid my plans before the Now York produce
exchange , the president of which unpointed
a committee. I thqn went west nnd made a
strong appeal to the produce exchanges of
the corn states to belp the movement with
subscriptions , 'llio principal produce exchanges -
changes and boards of trade in the west ap
pointed committcosto ; solicit subscriptions.
The only money used was $300 collected
at Buffalo , which was afterwards
returned. Now York city subscribed $1,0.)0.
Congressman Townshend , of Illinois , intro
duced a bill in congress proposing to grant a
special appropriation , butcongressadjourned
without action. Similar bills were intro
duced in the legislatures of Ohio and Illinois ,
but they too fnilod of passage. I then came
to Paris , in hopes that General Franklin , the
United States commissioner , would at least
erect u building at a cost of $2,500 out of the
$250,000 appropriated by congress , but ho
refuseJ to give one dollar for this exhibit ,
which could have been of moro practicable
value to the funning Interests of the United
States than ull the other American exhibits
( such ns they are ) combined. The French
authorities generously gave u slto without
charge which they valued nt $12,000. It Is
to bo regretted that the movement should
fail , for if successful , to use the words of the
United States commissioner of agriculture ,
"it would enhance the value of every acre of
land in the corn oolt. "
