No simple advertisement over caused n greater socloty sensation than the above , \vhlcii appeared In an evening paner. "What Is the matter with Judge Casndy nnu his wlfol" Social circles wore sot In a Whirl nt once. The Judge and Mrs. C.iSady have llvou hero for year * And b3on among the prominent1 * . .Tudgo Caiady came hero In 1853 , and has boon very active In business mid political circles , winning for himself moru than a local reputation and accumu lating nn estate which li estimated to bo of over ? ll)0,00 ) < ) In value. About live years ago he , bolng u widower , wedded the present Mrs. Cusudy , the relict of Dr. Osbornc , who. In his lifetime , was a very prominent physician of thin placo. The wedding called forth congratulations and well wishes almost us hourly as though the contracting parties wore in the flush of .youth's flrflt lovo. Slnco then Judge and Mrs. Casnily were looked upon IXB enjoying more than the average amount of married happiness and social enjoyment. Mrs. Cas- ady had a iioodly estate In her own name , and with the judge's Itboral'banU ' account there scorned no financial obstacle to the full enjoyment of life. The public announcement over his signature cauio , therefore , as a flash from a clour sky. Kcportorwl InqutslUvuness quickly poeUod Into the closet. Luxuriant as was the homo , thcro was a skeleton there. Of late there has been much trouble between the sup posedly happy couplo. .Tudgo Casady , al- theugh only sixty-one years of ace , has of late years broken a. good deal , and his failing health has created many annoying demands upon the time and strength of the wifo. Ou hm part he tnought her hoirtless anil inat tentive. On her part she looked upon him us irrasciblo and ovcrbearlug. There were * seine stormy and exciting scenes , which would have surprised greatly the many friends In tho"soclal circles in which Judge and Mrs. Casady took such high rank. The first of the month brought n surprise to tlm judge ! Hills came fluttering In upon him line a snow storm. Hero was one for ? 077 from Etacnmn fc Co. for dry goods bought by Mrs. Casady during August. An other from Ueno & to. ! lor H81 was for some twenty dresses bought by Mrs. Casady. Hero was a bill of Jacrniomin & Co. for 1081 for Jewelry. The old gentleman's breath was ulmobt taken nwnv. HP. was not accustomed - tomed to such expenditures. It began to dawn through his br.itn that Mrs Casady , who had been charging him with being stingy , was seeking sweat revenge. Hence the notice to tlin public to give Mrs. Casady no more credit on Ins account. The bills and the advertisement led to more scenes. Yesterday morning Mrs. Os- borao took occasion to tell the Judge what shu thoucht of him , and after stating clearly the reasons why she could no longer live with him , she swept through the door with a stinging farowoll. She tooit hersulf to her own house , where , In company with her daughter , she will probably remain. Soon after the stormy separation the papers vero filed and served as the preliminary proceedings of a divorce started by her. The grounds on winch she bases her claim for matrimonial freedom is that she canuot longer endure tlie cruel and inhuman treat ment of Judge Casady. She of course wants alimony as well as freedom. She has se cure John N. Baldwin as her attorney. On the other hand Judge Casady's friends laugh at the idea of Mrs. Casady being cruelly treated by her husband , and of her being afraid ot his physical abuse. She It a halo , hearty woman of about forty-five , weighing twice as much as the Judge , who is emaciated , tottering and feeble. It appears to them that Mrs. Casady , with the inten tion of forsaking him , planned to se cure as many pleasant perquisites as possible. During the month of Aucust she purchased sucn nn unub'unl quantity of dresses and finery that this-thcory is plausible. She had all of these articles charged , amounting to about. § 3.000. Among them was a $300 diamond mend ring and a $750 set of diamond car- rings. She bought fourteen yards of velvet nt 10.50 a yard ; seven yards of lace nt 518 a yard ; a luce fichu , $50 ; a cloak , S3T5 ; four suits of silk underwear at 510 a suit ; a boa , mult and other needfuls for next winter's chills. Judge Casady says these goods wore not delivered at his homo , and the supposition is she bad them taken elsewhere. Ho refuses to pay the bills , and there Is a likelihood of these being the occasion of other suits. As both Judge * Cusad.v and Mrs. Casady are finan cially able to pay the bills , the merchants will doubtless collect their money from ono or thoothcr of the misfit couplo. Judtro Casady has placed the matter In the hnnds'of his attorney , Finloy Hurko. The legal debt will , therefore , in all probability , bo a hot one when it is fairly opened.

The board of supervisors concluded their labors yesterday afternoon for the present , and adjourned till the 17th inst. , when it Is hoped that Supervisor Waltn will have suf ficiently recovered from his Illness to bo present. The board transacted the following business before adjournment : \V. S. Wllklns wus elected Janitor of the court house for the ensuing year , at a salary of * I83 per month , all of the members pres ent voting for him. A monibor of the soldiers' relief commis sion was then elected , vice Sylvester Dye , Mr. Ty ° rocelvcd ouo vote , and George N. Putnam three , and the latter was declared elected. The contract for burying paupers was awarded to HcrBiuan & Stevens , they being the lowest bidders. At the adjourned mcet'ng ' the mutter of erecting a Jail ut Avoca , and that of allowing the small pox bills , will bo considered.

Keller will bo very llkoly to bo elected treas urer of the school board for the ensuing year , When the long and exciting dead look of a year ORO Is remembered , a serious doubt will aviso In the minds of many us to whether any change will be effected without a bitter tight , but It Is un Indlsputod fact that the members of the board ara already doing some hard work to perfect plans to carry things their own way at the coming meeting to bo hold a week from Monday night , the regular September mooting , when u treas urer and secretary are to bo elected. At the last meeting of tha hoard , Mr , Hlnxulm , chairman of the flnanco committee , an nounced that at the next mooting ho would report the names of the proper parties to fllltbose-oflleos , but the president promptly oat down on him , and stated t'aut the whole board would have soinethlnt ; to say about it. As nearly as can bo ascertained Iho whole ituntlou Is about like Jhls : Messrs. Ulaxslm and Lnwson are opposed to tha present secretary - rotary , Dr. Urown , and are stronely In favor of Emmett Tlnloy , csq. . their defeated can didate of n year ago. Their only show td elect , him U to gain Mr. Sohoonlgoa's veto , o get which they must swallow Mr. Schocntgon's choice for treasurer. This will cause a deadlock , and it is qutto probable that it will require some liard work and very convincing loplc to got , ho necessary fourth unto from the other side of tne house. It U understood tint Mr. Ktil er Is Mr. Schoontgon's cholco for treasurer , n which case It will bo Keller and Tinloy against the choice of the ether three mom- bora , possibly the present Incumbents , I'oro- goy and Urown. In any event , there will bo fun when the time comes. The louir , hard contest of a year ago Is a , matter of record. After fruitlessly ballot- ng for several sessions , n secretary was Inally elected ono evening on the nlnety- seventh ballot At present the members nro very reticent , but It Is predicted that all will bo free enough to express their views before a choice Is finally effected. The City Now Owns Kalrmnunt Pnrk. T ate last evening a dcod was filed at the county recorder's odleo that will undoubt edly prove of great Interest to the citizens of Council H luffs. It was nothing moro nor .ess . than a quit , claim deed from Mary Walker of this city of all her Interest In Palrmount park. It will bo romum- icrod that several months ago an on- surprising law firm of this city Insti- , utoil legal proceedings to wrest from the city this beautiful park , all in behalf of a certain "widow In Colorado , " in whom , It was alleged , a certain title to the property was vested. It now transpires that this law linn secured quit claim deeds from various parties who might bo supposed to have a valid.claim on the property , but It Is alleged that recent developments will expose soiuo very crooked work in this particular. About three weeks ago Park Commis sioner Graham , Alderman P. Lacy and Fin- ley Hurko slipped away on a quiet little trip , o secure some "needed rest and recrea tion. " They sought It lu the mountains of Colorado , although that was not announced as their objective point , and labored long and earnestly with the hitherto vague and unrealistic "widow in Colorado. " The result is that the cltyof Council Bluffs now virtually becomes this snmo ' 'widow of Colorado , " which facts will not prove pleas ing to the nbovo mentioned legal ilrm. Dur ing their western visit , the thrco gentleman previously referred to ascertained something of the manner m which this avaricious law firm had worked to secure their quit claims. To tbo "widow" they represented that thev desired to perfect the title to Williams' addition , otherwise Fairmount park , in bo- Imlf of the city , to preserve it from any claims that might bo mudo at some future time to deprive the city of Council Bluffs of its greatly treasured beauty spot. She was Induced to give a warrant deed ot the park , for which they agreed to give her 21,000 , assuming upon themselves the responsibility of settling with the city , they to have all that they could got over tha stipulated sum. But they failed to pay thn sum agreed upon , and now the metamor phosed "widow , " otherwise the city of Coun cil Bluffs , who has been the defendant , will assume the part of plaintiff In a suit for ob taining property under false nrotouscs. To other parties who held Interests of which they desired a quit claim the law ilrm represented they wanted the quit claim m the interest of tha aforesaid "widow , " in all of which proceedings the firm figured in anything but an enviable light. Sufllco It to say , that for the sum of J1'J03 in hand paid D.V the city of Council Bluffs to the aforesaid Mary Walker , the latter has quit claimed all of her interest in Williams' addition to the city. Until now , the city has been anxious to stave off a . hearing of the case , which has been several times postponed for this reason , but Is now ready for the case to go on. It is set for trial September 25 , and it will now bo the defendant instead of the plaintiff that will push the caso. It is not expected that the plaintiff's will bo very eager to urge their claim and invite a full and complete disclosure of everything connected with tbo case , but in any event the city Is now in a position to dictate instead of being subject to dictation as to terms. A Gioso Connection. Two electric motor trains collided oa the bridge Thursday evening , but fortunately without doing any serious damage , The trains usually pass at the switch in the center of the bridge , but 'soino of the con ductors , when a little ahead of time , run by and meet the opposite train at the end of the bridge. This wus the case in this instance. The onstbound train passed onto the single track before the other loft it. The brakes wore sot tightly , but this did not prevent a collision , which shook the cars severely , throwing several passengers from their scats , a few of thorn falling to the ground. Mrs. John T. Oliver , of this city , sustained a badly sprained aim and several smaller Drulscs , and a number of children wcro badly shaken. None of the bruises were severe , and the damage to the car * was slight. _ Thrco hundred cases of goods wore opened In the Eisoman building yesterday. Come to-day and see tbo grand free exposition. Killed on the Kail. Brief mention was made In thcso columns yesterday of the killing of an unknown man , supposed to bo a tramp , In the Hook Island yards , by the incoming fast freight over that road , about 1 ; 30 o'clock yesterday morning. The remains were removed to the tinder- taking establishment of Field & Estop , whcra the inquest , was hold yesterday forenoon. The evidence Introduced was very monger and threw very little light on the affair , which still remains shrouded in mystery tea a certain extent. It is very probable that it will never ba known whether the dead man foil under tha wheels accidentally or was pushed from the train by sonic person unknown. , The bead brakeman is the only man who has thus far boon able to tell anything about the accident. His evidence , as given at tbo inquest , was to the effect that bo knew nothing of the pres ence of tramps until the train stopped at the "Q" crossini ; , a few hundred feet cast ot tbo Hock Island local depot. The engine whistled , and the tram had partly started again , when he turned and looked toward tha rear of the train. Ho was standing on tho'frontcar , and his lantern was setting near his feot. He saw two men walking toward him over tha tops of the cars. Ho turned toward the en gine for a moment , and when ho looked back again ono of the men bad disappeared. His attention had not been diverted from them moro than a second , and as ho Booked back the second time ho saw the car on which the man had stood Jump as if passing over some thing on tha track. Ho wont back and told the remaining stranger thut his comrade had been run ever and to get down and look after him. The stranger immediately clatnborod down the side of the car and disappeared , The train pulled up Into the yards , u dis tance of about t'.vp tr.iin lengths , and a switch engine was sent back to look after the unfortunate victim. Ho' was found lying dead and horribly mangled a few yards cast of tbo crossing. His former companion wus nowhere to ba scon , und has remained n missing and un- knowii quantity up to the present timo. The braloman [ could < ; lvo no information as to whether the dead man fell from the car ac cidentally or whether his unknown com panion LMVO him the fatal nush. When the two were soon together the deceased was walking in front of the ether , so that the latter must certainly have soon him fall , even If ho did not participate In any foul ploy , None of the trainmen know that the tramps were on the train , and it Is not known where they rode , as the train vraa made up of through time freight and every car was sealed. The only clua as to where they came from wan furnished by the en gineer , who testified that while the train was at Wcston , the first station east ol this city , ho saw two man cross the track Just in front of the engine , under tha full gluro of the headlight. Ho paid no particular attention to It , as It was a matter of common ocourenco. Ho de scribed the men as being somewhat on the tramp order ono tall and amooth faced , wearing a dark suit of clothes and browo derby hat , and the ether shorter , and wear ing a slouch hut. The former corresponds exactly with the dead man , and the bralui- man say * the ether would tally with the en < gniccr's description of tin ; second party , The unfortunate victim was frightfully muuglod from the chest down. Uoth aruie wcro crushed , luga amputated and cut in anvcral places , ami xliir hody cut in two } lu fnet , the corpse iMliM scarcely have been recognized as thu ri5fdn' ) ' of a human body had It not been that Uib head was disfigured very littlo.

The Nonpareil yesterday urged the ap pointment of an Inspector for the work being done on Pearl street by the Klcctrlo Motor company. For the information of that paper it may ba stated that City Engineer Stlmson has appointed an inspector , Mr. O. v ; Umd , who has bcou attending to his duties since the work of relaying paving was commenced. Mr. Hood Ims been a sewer and paving Inspector specter for the past four years and thorouehly understands his business , The paper above referred to fcovoroly cor.- sures thu company for the work being done at the head of Pearl street. The fact is that the paving at that point Is being replaced temnorarily , as it must bo removed again In a few days when the curves and switches ar rive , as curves nro going to boon the run down Bioadway as well 111 up. The paving has merely been replaced to accommodate the public for a short time , and not as a permanent paving. Below the point where the paving Is to bo again taken up , the work ot relaying the blocks Is being done in ns good shape ns Is possible with old and par tially decayed material. Now inch boards nro being laid under the blocks , in ulaco of the badly decayed nlank that was taken out , and the gravel is being very solidly tamped. A liberal coat ot tar will put the street in fully as good condition as It was before. Personal 1'iiraRrnpln. E. A. Wichhnm is looking after tils paving Interests in D.ivenuort.

[ Special Telegram to TUB Bnn.l One of the ugliest lights seen this season came off early yesterday morning in a sporting resort near Jersey City.

BOTH t'MJGIt AND liUCK. The flood Kortitnoorn HoMon Mnn In lloltvlnn Mines. BOSTON , Mass. , Sept. 0. [ Special Tele gram to TUB HUB. ] CJ. H. Fall , n Boston lawyer , has Just returned from n trip to Bohvln. Ho brings some valuable Informa tion concerning the work that has been done there by W. II. Cnrlsty , n Boston man. About four years ao Christy came Into pos session of the Londros mine , which has slneo proved ona of the richest in the world. The Londres wus first worked by the Spaniards 800 years ago. Some thirty years ngo It came into tha possession of English capi talists , who maiio largo slims of money from It , The ofllcors ot the English com pany , ib is snld , bcgnu to steal the ere , and after a time the stockholders refused to put up money with which to conttnuo the work. Finally the English capitalists abandoned It altogether. Thu mlno became flooded no badly that no ono cared to undergo the risk of n heavy outlay of monny to pump it out , and tor twenty years it lay idle. Christy cleaned out the mlno and the Bolivian government treed It of water by means of an underground tun nel and began digging. The diggings com pr'so ' 25 per cent of copper and 7ft per cant silver , tbo latter averaging from 200 to 2,000 ounces per ton. Christy has also como into possession of cluht lead mines and the only coal mlno In Bolivia. The coal that has been heretofore used has been brought from Chill mid olsc- where and sold to merchants ut f''OO per ton. The development of Christy's coal mlno , which nppcars to nave no limit ns to quan tity , will bring a much-needed relief to the merchants , who now expect to get their coal for S30 per ton , which will allow Christy a handsome profit. Already thcro are SOO miners at work In the coal and lead mines. The Bolivian government has given Christy the exclusive privilege of smelting In the ru- publio for fifteen years.
