The fire bugs wore abroad Tuesday night
and got in their dciplcablo xvork in no less
than four Innancei. The fire nt Aylesworth's
barn , on I'loroo street , nt 11:30 oYlock , was
undoubtedly of Incendiary origin , an no ono
was known to have been in the building for
several hours previous to the outbreak of
the tire , which was started in the middle of
the haymow. Before this lire wns fairly ex
tinguished another blaze broke out on the
oilier side of the street , nnd n few doors to
the cast , In a small cottage. No ouo knows
the origin of the fire , nnd it Is suppoied to
have also been the work of an Incendiary , as
the Humes blazed up from the rear of the
building. U bocan to look us If an attempt
was being made to cle. n out thu nest of dis
reputable dives that Imvo full swing In that
quarter , to which they have given the ex
pressive title nf "Kotten Row. " If such had
autuallv been the case , it Is hardly probable
that u single rcspecUblo citizen would Imvo
entered a word of protest , except to prevent
the fire department from Interfering In any
wuy to P'IVO oven n stiinglo.
But this wns r.ot tlio intention of tlio flro
bugs , who wcro determined to uurn prop
erty , rogiirdlojs of Its character or location.
The department was again called out at
about 1 o'clock by a bluzo In the African
Methodist church on North Main street. A
lurgo roll of cotton , saturated with oil , was
burning in the center of the lloor. Owing to
its early discovery It was extinguished be
fore any diimago was done.
The boys hud not had time to ngain got
Into bed before the continued whistling of
locomotives In the Hock Island yards gave
notice of unothor tire in the southern part of
the city , and soon an alarm cimn In from
box ! iO. A lively run took the department to
the corner of Eighth street and Twolrth
avenue , whore the large storage warehouse
of tbo Council Bluffs Fuel company was In
Humes. TMO building was erected and for
merly occupied by the Council Bluffs Oil
company , nnd being saturated with ol' ' ,
burned like tinder. The lire was started on
tno inside , and was undoubtedly of Incen
diary origin. Several times the firemen
seemed to have the lire under control , when
the flames would nguin blaze up with
increased ferocity , and the building was
gutted. There were oOO barrels of cement in
the basement , which wns almost entirely
ruined. The building is a total loss , being
beyond the possibility of repair. ' 1 ho com
pany had Just expended about 300 In re
pairs , putting on a now roor , etc. The total
loss Is aoout4OUO , insurance 31mx of which
$500 is on slocic and 7UO on building.
Another fact which serves to strengthen
the incendiary theory , is that the water was
turned oft' from the mains Tuesday after
noon to inaku certain topulrs , leaving the
city without pressure , except from the reser
voir , and it was not expected that direct
pressure would be ana in put on until yester
day. However , the work was completed
late in the oven in ; , and the pumping pres
sure turned on tne inilns , so thut during all
of the tires full lire pressure wns main
tained. It is tin- general belief thut tbo llrc-
buis knew 'hnt th > water hub been shut off ,
and took auvuntago of it to secure a chance
to plunder. Iho idea prevails tnut the
smaller lires were started to give the incen
diaries a good opportunity to start mote dis
astrous tires in other parts of the city.
The lire men were kept busy , and did tbo
biggest night's work they have done for
some time. During twenty-Four hours there
wore more alarms than during the preceding
two months.

The finding of a true bill by the grand jury
against Hev. O. M. Holmic < c , of Neola , for
murder in the second degico , occasioned
some little surprise among the friends of that
gentleman , who fondly hoped that such
would not bo the case. It will DO remem
bered that Helmick killed Ed Palmer at
Ncola a short'time ago. 'Ihe impression
seemed to prevail that the jury , in view of
the testimony introduced , would refuse to
return an indictment , but that body
preferred to let a full Jury of
twelve men pass upon Iho question
of the defendant's guilt or innocence.
The court fixed Mr. llclmick's bond nt , 5,000 ,
which amount was quickly put up by bis
friends , and be is still enjoying his liberty.
'Iho defense asks for a speedy trial , when it
is hoped that u verdict of acquittal will end
the mutter. The counsel for the defense ex
plains the finding ot the indictment by
saying the members of the grand
jury are all strong nnli-prohlbitioiilsts , and
thut the defendant's work ut Neola preju
diced them against him. The opinion is
given for what it Is worth.

At an early hour yesterday morning Offl-

men , two white und tbo third colored , just
as they wore emerging from an alley. The
onicors had been watching thom and finally
took thom into custody. They gave their
names as U. F. Little , Frank Hurd and
Louis Barrow. Tlio first named had a good-
sized roll of wealth , gold watuh and chain , a

other two bad nothing.
When arraigned before Justice Hondrlcks
at 10 o'clock. Little told a straight story. Ho
said lie left Gulcsburg Monday , and was in
Omaha last evening , whore ho met his two
companions nnd tne.v visited this city to see
the sighu , and had been hero only a short
tlmo when arrested. Ho was en route to
David City , Nob. , to go into the laundry
business. Ho was discharged.
Of the other two , Hurd said he had never
been in the Blutfa before , but the police and
reporters Identlticd him as Charles Johnson ,
arrested July 11 , with two other men for
heating a board bill at the Bluff City restau
rant , Barrow claimed to bo from Crawford ,
Neb. The police uro of the opinion that
these two were looking for a secluded place
to entice Little nnd rob him , but u revolver
in his possession and the many people on the
streets , caused by the lire alarms , prevented
the crime. They were released on condition
they would leave the city.

A rather surprising condition of affairs
developed Tuesday night , in connection with
the E. K. Mayno attachment suits. It seems
that there were Jive writs Issued , amounting
to about $ .31,000. The levees were made at
the instance of William A. 1'uxtoti , J. A.
McShano , Herman Kountzo , Mr , Rlloy ,
Muyno's former partner , and other Omaha
capitalists , As stated in yesterday's DEI : ,
the stallions soucd , eight in number , In
cluding the great Osiris , the celebrated
Saturn , sire of Consul , McLcod , and u num
ber of other noted dyers , were quartered ut
Bray's barn by the sheriff , Late ut nlghl
Muvno and eight hired men , with the horses1
brldlei , came over frgm Omaha , moved up to
the barn through n buck alloy and announced
their intention of taking thn hornos. There
were but two stable employes In the barn ,
mt they objected to the plan , nnd Mayno
jcgnti to nbtiso them , Ono ot them started for
the telephone to call the police , when Mnyno
Bulled a revolver , and shoving It under the
man's nose , ordered him to drop the tele
phone. Under the circumstances , the
man doomed It wise to obey. The other ,
liowovor. slipped out the buck door , and
visited the police station , whcro ho found
the chlof of police , nnd stated the case , re
questing that ofllclal to KO down nnd arrest
Mnync , who was nourishing his gun and
threatening to kill anyone who Interfered
with him. The chlof said that he could not
arrest the man without a warrant , and finally
told the man to go and get the sheriff.
The complainant replied that the sheriff was
out in the country levying on other property ;
still , thn chief refused to go wltout war
rant , nnd Mr. Bray was then called up to de
fend his property. This gentleman wits seen
yesterday , und wns very indignant over the
action of the chief of police. Said he !
"If 1 am not entitled to police protection ,
I want to know It. I pay as much taxes as
the average citizen , yet wlinn a man comes
around my stable nt midnight , nourishes
a gun , and a messenger is sent for
police assistance , the chief tolls him to go
nnd get a warrant or ho can not Interfere.
This , of course , Implies that n justice must
be hunted up , gotten out of bed , nnd nn In
formation Hied. Mayno ought to have been
arrested , and I Imvo tiled nn information
ngnlnsthlm , churtrlng assault , nnd ho will bo
nrrostcd the very next tlmo ho shows him
self on this side of the river. "
The result of the row , however , showed
that Mr. Bray was amply ublo to t.ike euro
of his property , for the Intruders left with
out taking the horses with them. Yester
day morning the entire lot of hordes wcro
taken to the stock yards , where they now

John Carey was born and reared In Lucas ,
la. , and bus as well-to-do and rcspcctaolo
parents as a young man could desire. His
conduct in the Magle City , on the contrary ,
has been as unsavory and eventful as the
most abandoned can boast of. The
festive John worked in the George
H. Hammond & Co. packing houses during
the day and sought out victims of his lust ut
night. Ho was not without attractive ap
pearance , , and his art was effective , us ho
was zealous In pursuit of the forbidden
fruit. Mr. C.irev looked with the
beaming eye of love on Miss Kittle
Buckncr , stepdaughter ol John.
Woodward. Uut this pretty und
intelligent little girl was too wary to bo
caught by bis chaff. True , ho nearly broke
her heart , but her honor is her own. Carey
laid siege to her affections and so far won
them tl.at they wcro engaged to bo married.
The day was set for Sunday before last , but
the recreant mun skipped out Saturday and
has not been heard nf since. To add to his
infamous conduct , before leaving ho gave it
out that the girl was about to become a
mother.
Now comes out the bad part of his record.
Last March a beautiful young girl of Whit
ing , la. , a victim of Mr. Carey's wiles , came
to this city and putup at the Benson hotel.
Wliilothoroshowasdcllvorcd of n child whoso
father was Tohn Carey. With thu courage
of a hero the irlrl kept up , working every
day , oven netting breakfast for the boarders
the morning after the child was born. Carey
then too ic her to Oinnlin and put up at one of
the hotels as man and wife. At 10 o'clock at
night the child was taken out , on Twenty-
ninth street and loft on the doorstep at
n doctor's residence , and deserted by the in
famous and lecherous John , she returned
that night to South Omaha.
In u conversation with Mrs. Woodward
she expressed her delight thut the recreant
cur had left , and was only too glad thut her
daughter would never marry him.
Mr. Carey is of u line und prosperous
family , aad has sisters residing in South
Omaha.

WA.Tfiiii.oo , In. , Sept. 11. [ Special Tele-
grain to Tun BKK. [ To-day has been quite
nn Imuortnnt ono in the Billings trial.
County Attorney Monaghan , of Gary , Dak. ,
made his appearance this morning. Ho
claims that three Indictments bnva been
found against Billings , und that If ho is
cleared hero ho will at once be taken back
there for trial. ( Jury was the place where
Billings is bald to have escaped from the
onicors when ho came hero previous to this
trial. Monuuhan will bo ono of the wit
nesses for the state. To-day
the state undertook to prove that
Utilities hud the revolver which was found
nonr Kingsloy's ' body. Tlio witness was a
young iniiu named IJlntio. He had been n
witness at thu previous trial of the case , at
which time ho did not mention the revolver.
To-day ho swore that before the killing of
Klngsley ho had cleaned out Billings' ottlco
and found n revolver lying upon a shelf.
Billings told him not to touch it , as ho
wanted to have It repaired. Ho noticed there
was a nick In the bundle , and when shown
the one lound near Klnqsluy he Identified it
as Billings' . He also said that ho was In a
meat market across the street the night of
the killing and heard the lust shot
llred. lie then went to the middle
nf the btreot and saw Theodore 1'ockels
come oul of tils Morn and look across tlio
street. About that time Billing * c line down
the stairway , mid while coming down
shouted , "I am shot" Pocltols was on the
street before Billings came down. ' 1 his Is a
direct contradiction to Pockets1 testimony.
Witnesses were pioduced to prove thut Bil-
llncs had made threats ag'iinst Klngsloy , but
in one instance the testimony was entirely
different from that given at the former trial.
The only other now point brought out was
by Dr. Boyer. the dentist , who swore that
ho heard Billlncs cry out , "I um snot , " very
soon after ho hoard KiiiKsluy fall. lie con-
veyi-d the impression that Billings w.is on
the hidowull ; or going down stairs when hu
tiiado this outcry.

Catarrh
IS a blood disease. Unlit tnu poison la
expelled fiom the system , there can
bo no cute for this loathsome and
dangerous malady. Theiufore , tlio only
effective treatment is n thoiough cotirso
of Aycr's Sarsnparllla tlio bestof all
blood purtllurs. The sooner you begin
the better ; delay is dangcious.
" I was troubled with catarih for over
twoyoais. I tiled various runu-dles ,
and wns treated by a number of physi
cians , but leceived no benellt. until I
began to take Aycr's Sarsnparllln. A
fuw hottlcH of this medicine cured mo of
this troublesome complaint and com
pletely restored my health. " Jesse M ,
llojigs , Ilolmuu's Mills , N. C.
"Whnn Aycr's ' Sarsnptirilla wns rec
ommended to me for cntnrih , I wus in
clined to doubt its efficacy. Having
tried so many remedies , with little ben
efit , I had no faith that anything would
cure inn. I became emaciated fiom loss
of appetite nnd impaired digestion. I
had nearly lost the HCIISC of smell , and
my system was badly deranged. I was
about discern aged , when n friend urged
me to try Aver's Saisapnrllla , and re
ferred mo to persons whom it had eured
of catarrh. After ( liking half n dozen
hottlrs of this medicine , I inn convinced
that , the only suiu way of treating this
obstinate disease is thioiigh the blood. "
