A letter has been received by Wheeler & Herald , of the bottling works in this city , from India , San Diego county , California , convoying the information that a man was found in the woods near there a few days ago in a starving condition , and that ho died mined lately after being brought In. He could not. talk when found and there was no means of learning his name. The only pa pers found upon his person wcro an envel ope addressed to "Andrez Prlntz , Soda company , Council Bluffs , " and an accouit book on the fly loaf of which was written , Plcuso send tno to Soda company , Council Hluffs , Andras Printz. " The man Is de scribed as being 5 feet , 7 Inches high , light complexion , and about thirty-live years old. There has been no one of the name given or corresponding to the description of the dead man who has ever worked at the bottling tling establishment in this city. It Is quite evident , however , that the unfortunate man oncn lived either In this city or Omaha , and perhaps has relatives hero. The supposition Is that ho bad wandered into the woods und got lost and died u linger ing death by starvation , as ho was terribly emaciated when found. Any information concerning him can bo sent to P. H. Gale , Indio , San Diego county , California. In E'alrmnunt's Shade. Owing to a general misunderstanding , there was no band concert at Fairmount park yesterday afternoon. It. was the In tention of the park commissioners and of the electric motor company to have had a con cert similar to the one u week ago , and it was supposed that arrangements had been made with Dalby's band , but the band failed to put in an appearance. It is quito proba ble that n concert will bo given some after noon during the week to make up for it , as it has been decided to have u concert there every week during the rpmaiudcr of tho. fall , and us long us pleasant weather continues. Arrangements will also bo made to have a concert every Sunday afternoon and on one other afternoon during the weak all of next summer , beginning as soon as the season opens , as it has boun demonstrated thiit It is not only u pleasing feature , but a paying in vestment as well. The number who visited the1 * park yester day was very fair , considering the fact that the day was quito cool , und there was no special attraction. The stub motor trains running to the park were very well natronlzed , every car carrying u good number of passnn- gers. Several little picnic parties took their lunches along und passed the greater part of tuu day. To show how rapidly thn popular ity of the park 11 increasing and how strong ure its attractions , it may bo stated that not u day of the last week passed , notwithstand ing the unusual and varied attractions of Merchants1 week , that one or more good sized picnic parties did not como over from Omaha to spend a few hours in the park. It is evident that the motor company fully realizes what an incentive the park will be to Increased travel over their line , und they are preparing to add to its attractions as much as'possible , Their efforts will bo heartily seconded by the park commission ers , und the general public will not bo plow to appreciate It , us well us to also lend a helping hand. .

"If any company boats this for track layIng - Ing , I want to know what company it Is , " remarked Superintendent Reynolds , of the olcctrln motor line , yesterday afternoon , us ho rode along Pearl street. Inspecting the work of the previous week. "Wo begun here last Monday and In six days have torn up six blocks of paving , taken up the old street car track , laid our now double track for the whole distance aiid replaced two blocks of the paving lu better condition tnau It was bo- fnro. I stopped work ut the lower end Satur day noon , in order to give the pavers a little time to catch up , as I don't want to have too much of the street torn up ut once , but I don't think wo can bo censured for the length of time we obstruct the street. In Omaha they keep the streets torn up for a month , but wo cut It down to a week. How fur will the double track extend i Well , about to Tenth or Eleventh avenue. Yes , that will just about catch the Union depot In good shape. If that visionary structure la evur uructed. "Hut wo go to that point , as our business below there can be lumllod without any diniuutty on u single track , but principally to avoid putting in uoublo crossings over all those railroad trucks , us crossings ai o ex- ponalvo , No , 1 don't menu right ol way , us that Is already secured , but the crossings themselves. However , the slnglo track will bo laid u little to ono side , so thai if wo should decide later to put in u double truck it could bo done without disturbing the ttlnglo track. "Wo will begin work on the Pierce street loop juit as Boott us we cot through hero provided they have all arrangements 'for our right of way nlong there perfected by that tlmo. H would take about two weeks to put in that loop and I can have both these now lines ready to opnrato between the middle nnd List of October. Power ! Oh , the power Will bo all right. The now boiler * are ready to flro up nny tlmo nnd two of the now dynamos nro hero now , and the other two will arrive this week. The first of the now engines will bo shipped on the 15th , and will bo icndy to start up ns soon ns the work on this Main street line Is completed. I uon't know yet how the trains will bo run on this line , but I rather expect they will bo run alternately , ono up Hrnnd- wy around the loop nnd the next to Oinnhn. If the weather holds pleasant wo will liavo things fixed so that there will bo no horse cars on nny of the llnca this winter. Yes , I mean the transfer lino. "I can't toll yet what route wo will take to pet there , but the electric cars will run to the transfer before vor.v much snow files. " It is understood that the transfer line will leave the Main street line at Sixth avenue , running down that avenue to Nlnotoanth street , thence to the transfer , nnd return the same way. The route may vary n llttlo from tills , but it will not bo materially different. The complete elimination from nil parts of the city of the mules nnd bobtail cars will bo o relief to the avcrngo citizen. Itonltuii IIOHL-S HUGrlp. Business In district court for the past week has not been particularly brisk ; in fact , it has boon dlfllcult to get the attorneys interested lu the cases sot for trial to attend nnd look after the Interests of their clients. None seemed anxious to push their cases , nnd there has been u general request for continuances. For this reason a whole day's assignment was frequently disposed of be- lore noon , und an adjournment would result until the next morning. A few divorce cases were tried , but they wore all vor.v one-sided , the defendant generally failing to put in on appearance and the decree would bo granted ay the court. The majority of cases wore those against the saloons , and several tem porary injunctions wore granted. The con test between Attorneys Sims and Boultoa over these cases has furnished considerable amusement for the spectators who imuut the court room. The latter gentleman has not thus far met with the most gratifying suc cess , still ho remains hopeful , and pro fesses to bo quito welt satisfied with the ways affairs are shaping themselves. Under quite discouraging circumstance ho has preserved remarkable equanimity , nnd on only ono occasion did ho lose his temper , when several decisions went against Him , nnd intimated that but tor a llttlo apparent partiality evinced by the court for the other side of the saloon prosecution , ho might stand a better show of carrying his point. The court very promptly stated that such in sinuations were uncalled far , nnd nddcd with much dignity that the court was not there for that purpose , and would not make itself a party to further any such ends. Up to the present time , however , Boulton has not made very rapid progress xvlth his cases. Since the court intimated that he did not know when to bring his cases into court , nor what to do with them after getting the in there , ho 1ms dropped almost entirely out of sight , and Is falling into innocuous desue tude , as it woro. Few have discussed Boul- ton's motives , although there are those who do not hesitate to accuse him of Insincerity , oven as he brings the same charge nguins } Sims , but for some reason the entire bar seems to take delight in throwing in his way all the obstructions possible. It is a noticeable fact that while Boulton was hopelessly wrangling over the prece dence of cases , Sims was quietly securing In junction after Injunction , nnd carried his point in all the cases. The principal light was over the closing of the saloon at the Mint. A permanent injunction was sought , and in the case , Colonel W. F. Sapp for the defense , urged that the owner of the prop erty was not present , and in fact had never been in the city. Long and exhaustive argu ments were made by the attorneys on both sides , and the case was finally submitted to the court , who has taken the matter under advisement. Judge Macy has the equity business In very good shape , and by the end of this week , which closes the time allotted to the equity calendar , ho will liavo it more nearly cleared up than it has been for years. Next week the petit jury will report for duty , and the trial of law cases will occupy the court's at- teutlou for the ensuing three weeks. Iio , I Am With You Alway. The Rev. Dr. Gillette , the able superin tendent of Cbatauqua Instruction , occupied the pulpit at the Broadway Methodist church at the morning hour yesterday. Not only the pews in the auditorium were filled , but the aisles were taken by closely packed chairs and all the available space between the stairways and vestibule was occupied by people sitting und standing , eager to see und hear the eloquent speaker. And they wore well repaid for any slight personal discom fort induced by the crowd , for Dr. Gillette delivered a most eloquent sermon , founded upon the words of Christ as He stood upon the Mount of Olives after the completion of His work : "Lo , I am with you alway , cVen unto the end of the world. " The words were spoken to the disciples by the Master , but they were spoken to every other follower at that time and to every human soul thence forward to the end of the world. They may have been woras of exaltation as He looked down the conquering ages to the nineteenth century and beheld the triumph of His word. They were words of encouragement as He beheld the sorrows nnd embarrassments of His followers , the horrible persecutions , the auto do fcs , the taunt , the misery , the shroud of gloom , und bitter anguish , und the night of despair that was ages In length. They were words of Inspiration. Men have tried to paint the thoughts that surged through the brain of a conauorer In the hour ol his triumph. The speaker described - scribed In graphic language the picture of the charge of the old guard at Waterloo. The artist had caught the scene ns thn ad vance rushed by tlio great Napoleon und fixed on his face the confident expression of the conqueror , and so the painter might have fixed that expression on the face of the con quering Christ. Has the prophecy that Christ is with us always been fulfilled ! There is no fact of history that stands foith so clearly authenti cated an Jesus' life and death. That ho lived 1'JOO years ago is as certain as that you and I hvo this day. You can mark out the Itinery of his work. The land in which ho lived has boon studied as no other spot on earth has boon studied. It is but u small area , but twenty to sUt.v miles across and less than 200 miles long , but every spot of it has been painted and photographed until the sectional pictures would make u complete panorama of its surface , and no man can toll the number of books that have been written about it , But yet were it not for Jesus of Nazareth , Palestine would bo nothing more to us than Greece. Nay , less , for the Hebrew literature gives us nothing like Greece. The llttlo Palestine is regarded because God sot against It the greatest life of the world. No nmu has sat for his likeness like Jesus , nnd every master of the brush for the past 1600 years has essayed to paint it as bis master piece. The Ideal Christ is stamped on the minds of the llttlo children of half the world. Ho molds and controls the muslo and poetry of the times , and His spirit breattics us a living force In every grand achievement and every progress of the ago. You can con sider the prophecy fulfilled , because Jesus lives ID the spirit of this ago. There are those who say the world is growing grosser and more corrupt , nnd that wickedness nnd increasing corruption are sapping the vitals of society. For my part I prefer to look fur to the other side. Everywhere and In every thing wo feel the pulsations of the mighty man of 1800 years ago. Two cunturles ago It wus not so. To-day to write on anything , "It Is unchristian , " is to brand it with Infamy air ! send it bacic to obscurity. There never was u time when society BO earnestly de manded the welfare of all as now , There never wus a tlmo when corporations cared for their men as now. Compare the millions who toil to-day with ttio myriads who were crushed beneath the burdens the Piurohs laid upon them when the pyramids were built. The gospel of Jesus Christ has a hold upon this great country of ours , Ho 1s a conqueror in every chamber of commerce and board of trade and in the directors' room of every corporation , and u living force in every council In the nations of earth , Ho lives in the embodiment of the spirit of progress of our times , The prophecy stands fultlUed In this : leI I am with you In the spiritual sonso. All the world confesses this. The martyrs of the past proclalmod it. The victim * of the stake uud raeu announced it with their ihouta , uud when the victim * ol the arena wqrd marched Into the Honnin' collsoufn7 avlth lt 8r,000 barbarous snectntMxhoy looked out upon the hungry sands of thataroni with shouts of Joy because Jesus wiwwllh them with a sustainIng - Ing strength. Hedsr tempering and molding the spirit of the age , softening the bestial passions and nitfdlfylng men's hate nnd enmity. Great cduspiMclos are planned and perfected , but on tlfeovo of execution they are abandoned. Great crimes nro contem plated , but a thojgbt flashes through the minds of the men nnd they nro abandoned , Only yesterday I yean of a scone that well Illustrates this tendency. A man hnd com mitted some great crlmo nnd tits follows , governed for the moment by beast passions that struggle for the mastery , were about to lynch him. The robe WAS over the limb and the cap was over Ins face , and eager hands were clutching the other end of the strangling halter. Suddenly the loader ordered the cap romovcd from hla face , and going to the trembling wretch placed a revolver to his face nnd cried : "You have never prayed In nil your worthless life , and now you've got to pruv for ono moment. " The only prayer the doomed man know was that which Jesus taught , but which had not crossed his lips slnca childhood , nnd ho began to repeat It with the energy of despair. As hocumd to that portion which says "forgive us our trosspasscs as we forgive those that trosspass against us , " ho struggled to raise his manacle : ! hands In supplication to hcavon. nnd with streaming eyes fixed above uttered tlio words with Biich awful pathos that his self-nppolntcd executioners shrunk back ono by ono , nnd the leader's pistol fell to his side. The spirit , of Christ was there ns n living force , nnd his prayer on that murderer's lips was a sermon from Calvary Itself to those dospornto men. Christ Is with you , mv fellowmen , nnd Ho Is with you always , even to the end of the world. At 5 o'clock in the afternoon Dr. Gillette met the young men of the congregation In tlio parlors of the church nnd gave a very pleasing nnd instructive talk. THE OHKYENNES. An Artist I'ruBcnts Ills lilona or tlio I lull it n Problem. In "Artist Wanderings Among the Choyonnos , " In the Century , Mr. Fred- crick Remington spanks of the so-called "Indian Problem" ns follows : "I know that corn cannot ho raised on thin reser vation with sulileiont regularity to war rant the attempt. The rainfall is not enough ; and where white men despair , I , for one , do not nxpoct wild Indians to continue. They have tried it and failed and are very properly discouraged. Stock-raising is the natural industry of the country , and that is the proper pur suit of these pooplo. They are only now recovering by natural increase from the reverses which they suffered in their last outbreak. It is hard for them to start cattle herds , as their ra tions are insufficient and ono can scarce ly expect a man to herd cattle when ho ncods the beef to appease * his hunger. Nevertheless , some men have respect able herds and can niTord to kill an ani mal occasionally without taking' the stock cattlo. In this particular they display wonderful.forbearance , and were they properly rationed for a time and given slock cattleHhoro is not a doubt but in time they would become self-sup porting. The present scheme of taking a fo.v boys and girls away from the camps to put them .in school where they are taught English , morals and trades , has nothing reprehensible about it , except - copt that is absolutely of no consequence so tar as solving the Indian problem is concerned. The few boys return to the camps with tboir , English their school clothes , And their' short hair. They know a trade also , but have no oppor tunity to bo employed in it. They loaf about the forts for a time with nothing to do , and the white men talk pigeon English to them , and the wild Indians sneer at thorn. 'Their virtues are un appreciated , and.as a natural consequence quence , the thousands of years of bar barism which is bred in their nature overcome the three little seasons of school training. They go to the camps , go back to the blanket , lot their hair grow , and forget their English. In a year ono cannot tell a school boy from any other little savngoand in the whole proceeding I see nothing atall strange. "Tho camp will not rise to the school boy , and so Mahomet goes to the moun tain. If it comes to pass that the white race desires to aid these Indians to become - como a bart of our social system instead of slowly crushing thorn out of it , there is only ono way to do it. The so-called 1 ndian problem is no problem at all in reality , only that it has been made one by a long succession of acts which were masterly in their imbecility and were fostered by political avarice. The sen timent of this nation is in favor of no longer regarding the aborigines of this country as a conquered race ; and except that the great body of our citizens are apathetic of things so remote as these wards of the government , the people who have the administration of their destinies would bo called to account. No ono di rectly interested over questioned that the Indian department should have been attached to the war department ; but that is too patent a fact to discuss- No u- the Indian u Hairs are in so hope. less a state of dry rot that practical men , in political or military circles , hesitate to attempt the role of reform : ors. The views which I have on the subject are not original , but are very old and very well understood by all men who Hvo in the Indian countries. They are current among army officers who have spent their whole lives on the In dian frontier of the far west , but are not often spoken , because all men realize the impotenoy of any attoirpt to overcome the active wont of certain political circles backed by public apathy and a lot of theoretical Indian regene rators. If anything is done to relieve the condition ol the Indian tribes it must bo a scheme which begins at the 'bottom and takes the 'whole outfit , ' ns a western man would say , in its scope. If these measures of relief are atall tardy , before wo rcalizo it the wild Indian tribes will bo , as some writer has said , 'loafers and outcasts contending with the dogs for kitchen scraps in western villages. ' They have all raised stock successfully whon"not interfered with oi- not forced by inpulllcicnt rations to oat up their Btobc.qattle | to appease their hunger , and I huvo never heard that Indians were not 'made ' of soldi or stuff. A great many western garrisons have their corps of Jifdjlui scouts. In every ciiso they provfcoijleiont. They uro nat urally the finest jrrogular cav'alry on the face of this clobo'and with an organiza tion similar to. the Russian cossaoks they would do the "United States great good and become themselves gradually civilized. An irTygnlarcavulry is every year a more anfl..ii\pro important branch of the service. Any good cavalry olllcor , I believe , could'take command of In dians anuridoaround the world without having a piece of bacon , or a cartridge , or a horse issued by his government. So far as effective police work in the west is concerned , the corps of Indian scouts do nearly all of that service now. They all hko to bo enlisted into the ser vice , universally obey orders , and are never disloyal. " Tills Hums IMUo'H ' IVnk. Viuitors at the Pike's Pealc observa tory have for years boon regaled with the statement that "this is the highest poiit ) on the glebe which is inhabited the your round.

Q ergo IConnnn , in his illustrated ac count otiltitato { Criminals at the Kara Mincs/'ln.tiio midsummer Century , says : "I rcgrof'tojiavo to say that ho was virtually driven Old of Siberia by the worst and most corrupt class of Rus sian boreaucratic olllolnla , Iio was called 'weak' ' and 'sentimental : ' ho wns accusnd of being a 'socialist ; * ho was said to bo in sympathy with the views of the political convicts ; and the Isprav- nik of Nerchinsk openly boasted , In the olliclal club of that city , that ho would yet 'send Colonel Kononovltch to the province of Yakutsk with a yellow diamond mend on his haul : . ' How ready even high officers of the Siberian adminis tration were to entertain the most trivial charges ngainnt him may bo in ferred from the following anecdote : During the last year of his service at Kara inoro came to the inlnoa a politi cal convict , hardly oat of his teens , named Blbiholf ( Boo-boo-UolT ) . As a consequence of long-continued sulToring and ill-truatractit tin the road , this young man was as wild , suspicious , und savngq as a trapped wolf. Ho seemed to regard all the world ns his one- mio8. and glared at ovcry officer as if ho expected a blow , was half afraid of it , but wns prepared to die lighting. Colonel Kononovich rocoivcd him cour teously and kindly ; sent the wlfo of ono of the political exiles to him with clean fresh uncierclothing ; attended generally to his physical needs , and finally said to him , 'Remember that nobody hero will insult you or ill-treat you. ' The young convict was greatly surprised by such a reception , and in a letter that ho subse quently wrote to a friend in European Russia ho said , 'I am glad to know from the little acquaintance I have had with Kononovich , that u Russian colonel is not necessarily a boast. ' This letter fell into the hands of the police in European Russia. was forwarded through the ministry of the interior lo General Ilyashevich ( Ill-yah-shy-vich ) , the gov ernor of the Trnnd-BaiKtil. nnd was sent bv that ollicor to Colonel Kononovich with a request for an 'explanation. ' It seemed to bo regarded as documentary evidence that the governor of the Kara prison was on suspiciously friendly terms with the _ political convic's. Kononovich paid no attention to the communication. Some months later hohapponodtovisUChiimon busi ness , and Governor Ilyashovich , in the course of n conversation about other matters , said to him : 'By the way , Colonel Kononovich , you have never answered a letter that I wrote you ask ing for an explanation of something said about you in a letter from one of the political convicts in your command. Did you receive it'i" ' "Yes , " replied Kononovich , 'I ro- 'Coivon. ' it ; but whut kind of an answer did you look for ? What explanation could I give ; ' Did vou expect mo to ex cuse myself bocaus somebody regarded mo as a human being and not a beast ? Was I to say that the writer of the let ter was mistaken in supposing mo to bo a Ifiiman being that in reality I was a boast , nnd that I had never given him or anybody else reason to suppose that a Russian colonel could bo a human being ? ' "This presentation of the case rather confused the governor , who said that the demand for an explanation had been written by his assistant ; that it had been stupidly expressed , and that after all the matter wns not of i.iucli consequence. Ho then dropped the subject. " _ Hid Her ftlonev in the Cemetery. A suit to settle the ownership of $300 found in a hollow stump in an Erie cem etery in May last by boys who were chasing a chipmunk has boon heard by Alderman Cole , of that city. Mrs. Bcr- ringer claims that the money belonged to her mother , who once said she had put it where bankers and thieves could not make way with it for it was about the time of the failure of the Erie coun ty savings bank. Tim Teeth Frightened Him. A Philadelphia drummer got into a Lohigh Valley car at Shenandoah , Pa. , and took out his teeth and put them on the scat behind him to take a nap. After the nap ho went oil , forgetting them. Agent Ferguson found them , them , and , as a joke , asked a Hungar ian seated near if they were his. The Hungarian turned pale as death , vigor ously shook his head and dashed out of the depot in thorough fright. Deserted Scandinavian Villages. A curious exploration is now being undertaken in u vast region of Scandi navia , which has practically run wild for nearly a hundred years , when whole villages , as well as homesteads and farms , were dcsorted on account of an epidemic. Tlio tract has been bought by a London syndicate , who have com- missionnd Sitl. . Pottingcr , ono of the pioneers of Norwegian travel , and J. Sargent , the well-known Oxford "coach , " to report upon this almost for gotten territory. The tmHt of tlio Sum-orm. A remnant of the Seneca tribe of In dians still lingers in Wivrron county , Ponn. , spearing fish , etc. , for a living. The tribe , all told , barely numbers 1,000 members , and has so dwindled that mar riage among blood relations has become almost a necessity. SPECIAL NOTICES. COUNCIL BLUFFS. FOR SALE AND RaNT.
