Umlcr n K (
Ttiotirrcbt of Joseph Koppclkorn Thursday
night on the charge of sodomy 1ms led to the
publishing of n story of 11 short hut unhappy
married life. Koppclkom was married last
Juno to Mi s UossiuSimons , and Immediately
after the marritigo the couple went to house
keeping over Deonvuler's second hand store
on Upper Hroadwny. Ivopplckoni at the
tlmo was keeping small fruit stand , but
socn closed It out mid began traveling
for the "Kgyptlan Mystery , " which
held forth about ; i weuk ago on upper IJioad-
Way at the loot of Park nvcnue. As soon as
the company reached this uity Mr. mid Mrs.
Ifoppelkom commenced keeping house at the
corner of 1'icrco and Oraco streets , but from
that tlmo on they dlsngrcad. The wommi
claims that her huiband ubuscd her fre
quently , and ono day after ho hud admin
istered n sovcro beating to her , ho lolt for
Umali'.i , saying tin would return In n short
time and take n\vay their furnltiin1. She decided -
cided to prevent this and so had the rurnituro
tnovcJ to her father's house. Slnco then her
time tins been rnuinly occupied In keeping out
of the \vuv of her husband.
There nro some who uro well Acquainted
with the alTnlrs of the fanitlv who insist that
the story told by Mis. Koppelkom is all
made up for the purpose of placing Koppcl
kom in a bad light bcforo the public. They
also claim that the Hilllrk boy , who is said
to hothu victim of Koppclkom , is a party to
the sehenio , and Unit the arrest was made
out of revenge. Koppclkom has always
borne a good reputation , whllo Illllick , it is

A Petrified Wniiinn.
Mr. I. N. Barrett , a Council Bluffs
gentleman who left the city last fall and
spent the winter in Fresno , Cal. , and
wignali/ed hi&fatay there by the discov
ery of a petrified giant , which lias at
tracted the attention of the Hcion-
tllle world , reached the city
yesterday with another extraord
inary petrilication. IIo has rented
the room , 5.7 ! Broadway , formerly occu
pied by Hart's jewelry store , and has
placed the wonder on exhibition. It is
a perfectly formed woman lying on her
back with her hands peacefully folded
across her breast. The corrugations of
the skin on the hands can be traced to
the minutc t wrinkle , and every muscle
is as natural as life. The face is classic ,
clean cut and handsome , and the whole
form conveys the impression that the
woman , whllo peacefully sleeping in
rosy health , was suddenly turned into
stone. The drapery about the form lias
fallen away and polrllled in little tufts ,
giving a ragged appearance in some
'places. The hair , eyelashes , finger and
lee nails uro clear and distinct , the for
mer being petrified in tufts. A portion
of the upper lip has been cut away
revealing two teeth to which thoonamo'l
Is still adhering. The petrifaction was
found by a little boy within a few foot of
where Barrett found the giant. It will
bo on exhibition hero for two weeks.
Ladles will bo admitted from 2 till 4 p.
in. , and will bo shown the wonder by iv
'
lady attendant. Physicians will bo'ad-
mltted free , and Mr. Barrett invites the
closest investigation.

Amelia K. Burr in Now York Lodger :
Under the uluulow of a great llg tree n
young girl sat , in a deep reverie. Such
u tender light was in her eyes , such n
sweet smile of full satisfaction on tier
face , that a stranger would certainly
"
have said : "She"is thinking of her
lover. " But no lovnr had Mabel .Rao ,
and her pleasure sprang from u far less
dangerous f-ourcc from the handful of
tuberoses in bor lap. Their spiritual ,
dreamy beauty and rare , ricli perfume
nlwnya hold her as in n spell of measure
less content. To breathe their odor waste
to fill her soul with holy end tender
thoughts , and the lovely waxen flowers ,
jmlc , pure and white as moonshine ,
haunted her heart and imagination , and
received from her n perpetual love and
worship.
There filio sat until the heat and still
ness of the tropic noon drove her to the
bouse , a grand old home hid among
giant Hvc-oaks grny with the solemn
waving southern moss. She wont first
to the largo dim parlors , intending to
put her favorites among the dump moss
of the hanging baskets ; but the droamv
languor of the darkened room overcame
every dcslro but that of sleep , and sbo
lay down on the nearest couch , holding
her flowers in her hands.
Half mi hour later , Mr. Rae opened
the door , and ushered In a. gentleman
who bad accompanied him from Now
Orleans.
"Sit down , Allan , " he said. "I will
aoon arouse the bouse. You see , it Is
the hour for siesta , and I believe all
take it at the same time when I am
away. "
For a few minutes the young man be
lieved himself alone. The subtle , pow
erful perfume quite unknown , but de
licious beyond expiossion wi'.s his first
sensation. Then , as bis eye became ac
customed to the dim light of the care
fully closed jalousies , he saw a picture
that bo never moro forgot a most lovely
girl , in the first bloom of maidenhood ,
fast aslcet ) on the silken cushions piled
on a low divan. Her white robes made
a kind of glory In the darkened corner.
Ono hand had fallen down , and the flow
ers gemmed the carpet at her side ; the
other lay across her breast , as if em
bracing the tuberoses which it bad scat
tered there.
Allan Montieth was a young Scotch
man , tbo only son of u gentleman with
whom in early life Mr. Rae had formed
a most ardent friendship. Allan was
rich , and by nature and birth equally
noble , but he was utterly devoid as yet
of any experiences but such as bis col
lege and his mountain home had brought
him. Nevertheless , bo was not destitute
of tbo traditional business capacity of
his house , as some late transactions in
cotton and sugar in New Orleans had
proven to Mr. Rao. And partly because
ho liked tbo young man , and partly as ti
matter of interest , ho bad invited him to
his homo among the woods and lagoons
of the Evergreen bnyou. Mabel , in this
transaction , hud scarcely boon properly
considered ; but to bor father she was
yet a child. True , he recognized her
wonderful beauty , and was proud of it ;
ho knew , too , that she possessed an ex
quisite voice and great skill in music
and tbo passing idea of showing his
pearl of price to the foreigner rather
Haltered liis vanity than alarmed his
fears. He did not dream that ho was
introducing a now claimant for its pos
session.
With the fall , however , there came
imperative letters from Scotland ,
and Allan could no longer delay.
Love has its business as well
as its romance , and this side was
not so satisfactory. Mr. Rae would
hear of no engagement for two years , by
which time , ho said , lie hoped to bo able
to glvo Mnblo such a fortune as would
make her acceptable in the eyes of
Allan's father. But for the present ho
absolutely declined to look- upon the
young people's attaclunontas binding on
either sido.
"In less than two years , when the first
tuberoses bloom , I will bo hero again ,
Mabel , darling , ' ' wore Allan's last whis
pered words , as ho held her tenderly in
Ilia arms and kissed again and again the
face dearer than all 'the world to him.
And Mabel smiled through her tears
and hold the last tuberose of the summer
to his lips for a parting pledge.
But the two years brought niiiny and
unexpected changes. That very winter
Iho first war cloud gathered , and long
before Allan could redeem his promise
the little island plantation was desolate
and deserted. Mr. Rae hud irene to the
war.und Mablo boarded In a ladies'school
in Now Orleans. Those wore but the
beginning of sorrows. Another year
found her an orphan and cruelly embar
rassed in money affairs. Claimants
without number appeared against the
Rae estate , and creditors forced the
plantation into the market , at the most
unfavorable timo. She was driven from
her homo in strict accordance with the
letter of the law , but she felt and know ,
though powerless to prevent it , that she
had been shamfully wronged.
Poverty Is a great teacher , however ,
and has many learned disciples , and
now , for the first lime in all her life ,
Mabel thought for herself and dared to
look the future in the face. She had
promised her father never to
write to Allan without his pcrmlssloh ,
but she considered that death annuls all
contracts' , and surely now , if over , it was
Allan's duty to befriend and care for her.
So slio sent him word in a few shy ,
timid sentences of her sorrow and lone
liness. But it was doubtful if evoi the
letter would reach him ; mails in those
days wore not certainties ; and oven If it
did roach Allan , it was still moro uncer
tain whether ho could reach Mabel.
And in the meantime she must worker
or staryo a blest-od nltormtivo in great
sorrows , I say. People who have to
fight "a sea of troubles" do not go mad.
Work , the oldest of all preached evan
gels , Is the consoler ami brings thorn
through. And though Mabol Rae could
command no higher position than that
of a nm-bory governess , yet she found In
it n higher life than over the dreamy ,
luxurious selfishness of her father's
home had given her.
Her employers wore of the ordinary
cla s. I can weave no romance out of
them. They felt no special interest in
Mubel , neither did they ill-use her. She
was useful and unobtrusive , and asked
neither for sympathy nor attention. No
letter came from Allan Monteith , though
she waited and hoped with falling heart
and paling cheeks for moro than a year.
She had not the courage to write again ,
and her anxiety and distress began to
toll very perceptibly on a naturally frail
constitution. Then a physician advised
her to try at once a more invigorating
climate , and she nut unwillingly agreed
to accompany the invalid wife of an olll-
cor returning to her homo in Now York.
This was the dawn of a brighter day
for Mabel. She found friends even if
she did not find health , and her rare
beauty nnd wonderful musical talents
soon procured her the admiration of a
largo and influential circle. By the ad
vice of her friend , she established her-
bolf in a fashionable locality and
commenced the teaching of music.
I think few women could have
been moro successful. Part ol this was
undoubtedly dim to Aho nodal power of
her friend ; but neither this nor her own
loveliness and winning manners would
have boon sullleiont,1 tylthout the genuIne
Ino knowledge of liqi' ' Art and that won
durful voice which , , 'Ch'armcd all wh
heard It.
So , in the second winter of Mabel's
residence in Now York , it became "tho
thing" to Invite Miss Rno to preside
over select social and musical entertain
ments. I have a friend who mot her
during this season frequently , nnd who
describes her tact nnd influence as some
thing extraordinary nnd magnetic. Her
rare beauty was uiidimlntsliod , though
more thoughtful andnplrltuol in charac
ter ; her dress was uniformly the same
a palojplnklustorletwsllk , with tuberoses
in her hair and at her breast , for her
passion for those flowers was stronger
than ever ; and when they were toM \
procured , at any trouble'or cost , her
little room was always full of their
peculiar fragrance.
Yet so it proved. Allan lingered as
if in an enchanted castle till he had no
life , no will , no hopes but those which
centered in Mabel Rao. And she , inno
cent and impressible , soon returned his
passion with a love oven moro absorbing
and far loss eellish than a lovot-V.
During this winter Mabol bad many
lovers nnd , report said , moro than ono
excellent olTor of marriage , but she
quietly Ignored or else decidedly re
fused all advances. Her heart was still
with the tall , fair mountaineer who had
von it amid the warmth and perfume of
tropic noons and moonlit nights ; and
though twice two years had passed , she
refused to believe him false.
But ho still loved her passionately ,
and often in stormy nights , when the
winds tossed the tall pines like straws
and mountain snoivs beat at barred
doors and windows. IIL thought of the
lumpy peace and the solemn silences in
which ho and his love had walked , Us
toning only to the beating of their own
hearts or the passionate undernotes of
the mockingbirds Often , both in sleep
ing and waking dreams , ho saw again
that dim parlor and the beautiful girl
sleeping on the silken couch ; and with
these memories there always came the
same sensation of some delicate perfume
in the air. Far away amid the heather
and the broom and the strong fresh
breo7.es of the North Sea , ho still was
visited by the breath of the tropic
woods , and the fragrance of the tube
rose and the memory of his lost Mabol
were one and indivisible in his heart.
Thus two walked apart who should
have walked hand in hand , and itseomod
as if the years only widened tiiat breach
over which two souls looked longingly
and called vainly. But there are ills
which happen for good , and I think
any ono who would have taken the
trouble to analy/.e the gain in character
which this separation and struggle pro
duced would have said so.
For after five years of battle with life ,
Mabol was no longer a lovely ,
impulsive , thoughtless child ; she
was a noble woman , beautiful
in all the majesty of completed
suffering. And Allen's whole nature
had swelled under the inlluo"co of a
mighty and unselfish love , as seas swell
under the influence of the sun and moon.
If wo wait , however , the harvest of
the heart will come. Ono day early in
the winter M.ihol gotanotofromafrndio
announcing her return from abroad and
begging her to bo present at a small in
formal reunion at her house that even
ing. She went early in the day and
spent the aft-ornoon" in that pleasant
gossip which young and htipny women
enjoy. Her hostess rallied her a good
deal upon bor growing years and laugh
ingly advised bor to secure a young
Scotchman with whom they had hud a
pleasant acquaintance in their travels ,
and who was now in Now York and
going to sponu the evening with them.
Did Fate knock softly on Mabel's soul
then ? For she blushed violently , and
instantly , as if by magic , there sprang
up in her heart a happy refrain which
she could not control , tind which kout
on ainging : "IIo comes ! Ho comes ! My
lover comes ! "
She dressed with more than ordinary
care , and was so impatient that her toi
let was completed before others had bo-
gun. So she sat down in the unlighted
parlors , saying to herself :
"I must bo still. I will bo calm. For
bow should I beam disappointment , and
what ground of hope have IV Absolutely
none but that ho comes from the same
country. No ; there Is no hope1' !
But still , above the doubt and fear ,
she could hear the same chiming under
tone : "IIo comes ! Ho comes ! My lover
" '
comes !
' Ah , my darling ! my darling ! My
fair , sweet flower , whoso perfume has
followed mo o'er land nnd sea , I have
found you again at last ! " exclaimed
Allan , as ho clasped Mabel to his bosom.
And so Mabel's winter of discontent
and sorrow was over. Never moro did
slio have grief or pain uiitiootlicd or un-
comforted. I only wish I could close as
the old fairy tales do , and say : "So they
lived happy over afterward. " But ,
alas ! Though a lovely Mabel Montoith ,
with her father's hair and her mother's
eyes , makes light and gladness in Al
lan's homo , the far dearer ono has gene
"to the abodes where the eternal aro. "
In a little country church yard , not
twenty miles from Now York , the
beautiful Mabel Rae "sleeps the
sleep that knows no waking. "
Half the year round you would
know her grave by the delicate odor
of the tuberoses with which it is cov
ered ; and oven when snows cover it , and
wild winds and rains beat over its
senseless turf , ono noble heart offers
there still the incense of an undying
affection.
For , bo siiro that a true love "strikes
but ono hour , " and ho or she has never
loved at all who can say , "I loved once. "
Was Mabel's short life'a lost onoV Oh ,
no ! Life is perfect in small measured ,
and she loft upon the mountain-tons of
death alight that makes them lovely to
those who shall follow her.
