Mrs. Hoffman , one of the patients of the recent smallpox epidemic , has been on the anxious seat for several days past on ac count ot the absence ot her IC-year-old daughter Cora. The girl came back from Kansas last week and left her trunk In Omaha. She got a hack and went back to Omaha to get the trunk , accompanied by Mattlo Cole , another girl of her own age. That was Friday morning , and nothing has been seen of her since. In the meantime two hack drivers , Wlllard James and Durt Luke , had alee disappeared , and an Investi gation brought to light the fact that the two men and the two girls had left to gether. Yesterday afternoon a telegram was re ceived from the authorities ot Missouri Val ley stating that Miss Hoffman was In their charge and would bo held for further orders. As nearly as can be learned now , the quar tet went to Missouri Valley , where the two girls were deserted by their male escorts. The Hoffman girl ran out of money and ap plied to the town officials for assistance. Mrs. Hoffman made arrangements for an officer to go the Valley last evening to get her daughter. She filed two Informations charging each of the men with abduction , and also filed an Information charging her daughter with Incorrlgiblllty. Constable Jackson was given the warrants to serve. It Is not thought by the authorities that the two men am In Missouri Valley , but If they are they will undoubtedly be brought back to pay the price of their crookedness.

NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS ROT , Stephen Phdrs on True Patriotism at the First Presbyterjaq , GREATER VICTORIES IN PEACE THAN WAR Churches Are No Longer Sowlnjr Dragon * ' Teeth to Spring Up Around .Men , hut Arc bowing tk-ed * of Hindoos. At the First Presbyterian church yester day morning a large audience assembled to hear Rev. Stephen Phelps , D.D. , preach from text , "They shall beat their swords Into plowshares and their spears Into pruning hooks. " This Is no fanciful sketch , he thought , but the time Is rrally coming when the world shall no longer be curbed with war. He cited a large number of prophecies bearing upon the subject , and looked forward with an unwavering eye to the time of their abso lute fulfillment. The time of wars of exter mination has passed , and there are now laws of war which are recognized on every battle field. The conquered ore not ruthlessly de stroyed , property Is not demolished , flags of truce are honored , the woundcil are taken to hospitals , and In many ways the horrors of war are ameliorated. And as man rises tea a higher plane there will be further Improve ment , until war shall finally be done away with entirely. Nations used to rush Into war on the slightest provocation , while now they hesitate and settle their differences by arbitration. The establishment of the Christian church and the preaching of the gospel are two things which will bring about this happy state of affairs. "The churches are no longer sowing dragon's teeth to spring up armed men , but they are sowing seeds of kindness , " said he. "The time will come when Christ's rule of overcoming evil with good will be the universal law. God himself will be the arbi trator of disputes , and will decide In conformance - formance to Christ's teachings. The nations shall not learn war any more. When the veterans got together last week they spoke eloquently of the scenes of the rebellion. They threw a halo over Pittsburg Landing and Gettysburg , and we who heard and had our spirits roused by the scenes they BO graphically portrayed were learning war. I believe In reunions , In honoring the old soldiers , but they ought to be careful how they throw the light of glory over these murderous scenes. Rather let them be cov ered with the smoke of the bottomless pit. Let them teach us to hate war rather than to admire It. "To keep the 3,000,000 men who now form the standing armies of the world must cost J6.000.000 a day. The firing of ono of the big guns that has passed through Council Bluffs on Its way west costs from $100 to $600 , as much as a home missionary's salary for'a year. A million dollars spent In forti fying a city would build any university in the world. "Washington was a great man , but the greatest act of his life was not performed on the battlefield : It was when he refused the crown that would have made him king of the country he had struggled to free. Lincoln was a great man , but it was not the war of the .rebellion that made him so. His crowning act was when he signed the paper that gave 4,000,000 slaves their liberty. And Grant's greatest act of his whole life was when he stood magnalmously before Lee and accepted his sword ; , the act that told that the war was over. And when the boys In blue stood marshaled In line and saw Lee's men stack their arms at Grant's feet , with tears In their eyes , there were tears of sym pathy In their own eyes. There was no sign of a taunt from all that great union army , and that was the truest sign of greatness that was witnessed In all that long and bloody conflict. In peace there are greater battles to be fought and won than were ever fought and won amid war and smoke nnd fire. Let us have patriotism , but better thnn that , let us have that higher courage that will lead us to vote right , live right , do our duty as citizens , love Christ more , love the church more and love humanity more. " in : AVON HIS n it inn. How an Irish Inillan Wooed ami Weddcil a far in or' * naughtor. There was a little scene at Dr. Pardy's Indian show , a medical aggregation that has pitched Its tents on a vacant lot on Broad way between Seventh and Eighth streets , Saturday evening that was not down on the program. For n time there was some pros pect of one of the fakirs loslnp his scalp- lock. The Individual was the Irish come dian , John Daugherty , and the war club was wellded by a lusty fanner and his still moro li'sty wife , living somewhere near Ports mouth. They came to town to rescue their daughter , who had been captured by the Celtic comedian , and who was being held not nn unwilling captive In the lodge of the warrior. Previous to coming to Council Bluffs the aggregation filled an engagement In the little town In the adjoining county , nnd one of the many victims that fell under the spell of the noble red man that was born in Ireland was a bright-eyed paleface maiden , the daughter of the farmer alluded to. She lost no opportunity to attend the free show and test the medicine. It was good medicine , and It worked so effectually upon the young girl that she lost her head ns well as her heart. After the company left and came here the red-headed Indian got leave of absence and followed the trail back to Portsmouth , went to the farmer's house and captured and carried away the paleface maiden in true redskin style. They got back Saturday afternoon and were at once married. The old farmer and his wife arrived on the next train nnd , went nt once to the show grounds. The elements as well as the old people were ripe for a storm , and while the rnln wns coming down In sheets they were chasing the red-headed redskin from tepee to tepee with business-looking war clahs. In the chase they discovered their daughter , but she was not Inclined to bo rescued , and stubbornly resisted all en treaties and commands to return home. Dr. Purdy , the head ot the aggregation , was appealed to , but declared that he was una ble to control his Indians In affairs of the heart , and made It a business not to inter fere professionally with the practice of Cupid. As a peace .offering he gave each of tlio old people a bottle of his medicine , with the assurance that n second dose would either kill them or cure their aversion to their new son-in-law. The other Indians held them and the medicine was adminis tered. An hour later the farmer and his wife had sought a hotel for the night , and yesterday morning they returned home , leaving n job lot of blessings for the young people. It Is said they left for the purpose of taking legal steps to secure control of their daughter.

HEAKD A CllY ritoai THE WATEK. * .Men nt Mairnwa llcllove Soruo Unknown 1'er on Wu ilroiTnod Last Night. It seems probable that a man was drowned In Manawa lake last night about 11 o'clock. Mr. William Maloney and some other men were standing by the water at Manhattan beach when they heard a man crying , "Help , help , I'm drowning. " The voice seemed to come from a point about 300 yards north west ot where the men were standing. Two men got Into a boat and started out , but on account of a misunderstanding went in the wrong direction. Mr. Odell , manager of the beach , then took a boat. In company with others , and rowed In the direction from which the voice came , but found nothing and heard nothing more. Coming across the lake to the north side he sent men out to see If they could find an upturned boat , or any other evidence of an accident , but they did not. Some think the cry was made by some one in a boat , but .Mr. Maloney says the voice wns undoubtedly that of a man In distress. Further Investigation will bo made today.

The saloon closing order of the mayor of n week ago wns countermnnded yesterday morning by Deputy Marshal Fowler and as a result several saloons In the city were al lowed to run before the police found out about it. Officer Peterson was called to an account by some saloon keepers who did not happen to be Scandinavians for his alleged partiality In allowing some men of his own nationality to keep their places open. That was the first he know of it. He proceeded to investigate , nnd found that Fowler had been around and told the saloon keepers that It would be all right If they ran their places quietly and did not allow nny thirsty people to come in at the front door.

CARNOT MURDERED ( Continued ffwniFlr ] t Page. ) de p iGdj nnUon jniong the crowij otind vtnt In the form of djutks 'upon cafes kept by Inoffensive natives' Itafy. Three such places In the vicinity' the Palais of Com merce were totally wrecked by the In furiated mob. French nags , whichwere In abundance , were then procured by the crowd , and with cheers of "Down wlft | the foreigners , " "Out with them , " hundreds ol people marched to the Rue de la Uarfoytln which street the Italian consulate Issituated. . There Is no doubt the consulate Svbuld have been sacked had It not been for ' ( lie prompt action of fir i 'Ice. ' who stopped tht crowd and com pelled Its members to disperse. The excitement continues at fever heat , and It would take very little to precipitate bloody anti-Italian riots. The people want to take summary vengeance the upon coun trymen of Santo , and the municipal officers , fearing trouble , ordered bodies of curals- slers to patrol the city. Everywhere the troops are greeted with cries of "Long live the army. " SEEN AT THE DEATH DED. Shortly after midnight the archbishop of Lyons was summoned to the bedside ot the dying president to administer to him the last rites of the church. He was In the room but a short time when he retired to an adjoining room. He remained until half past 12 o'clock , when he was again sum moned to the president's room , where he administered the sacrament. M. Carnet re mained conscious to the last. He realized that his life was rapidly ebbing away and twice he said : "Je m'en vals. " Dr. Poncet leaned over the bed and said to him : "Your friends are here , Monsieur le President. " M. Carnet replied : "I am grateful for their presence , " and a minute later he gasped for breath , there was a convulsive shuddering of his body and the president of France had pasesd away. The bed on which M. Carnet died was of Iron. It was placed between two windows of the palace. At Its foot was the bed of honor , which had been reserved for the pres ident. The incision made by the doctors In order to stop the Internal hemorrhage measured about three inches long by two Inches wide. It was thought the entire population of the city was on the streets when the attack was made , but this later proved erroneous , for , as the night advanced , the crowds were constantly augmenting. After the attacks upon the Italian cafes tne disorderly ele ment among the crowds devoted their atten tion to the Italians they found on the streets. Several of them were pursued nnd barely escaped alive. The police had great difficulty In rescuing the hunted men. The Rue de la Barre Is now barricaded at both ends and guarded by troops. Sketch of the Dcntl MUM. Carnet , Mnrle FratKOls Sadl , president of the French republic , wus born at Limoges , August 1S37.

The first news of the attempt upon the llfq of President Carnet was received In this city with many ex pressions of doubt , but later when dispatches began to pour In describing In detail the act of the assassin , 'doubt could no longer prevail. Then came the short dispatch an nouncing that M. Carnet was dead. To describe the varied emotions of the Parisians was Impossible. Any of the offi cials seen by the reporter of the Associated press were too much overcome by the sud denness of the .disaster to express any opinion as to the results that would follow the act of the assassin. Others , while ex pressing the deepest regret at the death of the president , were very chary of giving any 1 publicity to their political opinions. But among the great class outside of the officials nothing but deep Indignation and sorrow at the cowardly blow that had de prived France of her executive was heard. In the cafes men congregated nnd speculation was rife ns to the motive that prompted the crime. Many persons jumped to the con clusion that the assassination was the re sult of on anarchist plot. As a matter of fact nothing whatever Is positively known as yet as to the cause which led to the outrage. Many persons believe the crime was the work of on ir responsible crank , whoso enmity against France and her president was kindled by the Algues-Mortes riots , when many Italians were killed , and who determined to wreak vengeance upon the president for the wrongs done his countrymen. Whatever the motive the act has plunged the whole of France Into deepest mourning. Aside from his political enemies. Presi dent Carnet was universally beloved. His pure , upright life endeared him to ) the masses of the people. His honesty of pur pose and devotion to the Interests of France were unquestioned. It is believed his funeral , which will be on Imposing state function , will bo the occasion of one of the greatest demonstrations of popular love and respect that France has seen In many years. On every side the i'o nest sympathy Is expressed for M.ne. Carnet , who did so much socially to make her husband's administra tion popular. Mine. Carnet was at the palace of the Elyssee when the news of the assassination was conveyed to her by an official of the president's household. She at first refused to believe It , asking why any one could desire to kill her husband. When the truth of the dispatch was Im pressed upon her she became almost pros trated with grief. She demanded to be at once taken to Lyons , And arrangements were at once perfected with the railway company , and In a shq t time , In company with two of her davig fjors , who were weep ing bitterly , she was speeding to Lyons In the hope that theyU\ould still see her hus band alive and well !

Although the public places were deserted on this hot Sun day evening , news of the assassination of President Carnet became known over the country with remarkable rapidity. The most pronounced sensation was created every where , but particularly In official circles was the tragedy most keenly felt and most Intel ligently discussed. President Cleveland , the vice president. Secretary Gresharn , the French minister and other officials were given the news by the Associated press reporters and leirneil It from them , for no official dispatches were received. Without exception , they were deeply affected and expressed their regret in strong terms. To French Ambassador Patenotre the an nouncement was n great and most unex pected shock. Until a late hour the French embassy was the center of Interest , many diplomats and other officials of this govern ment driving there to learn what details they might and extend their expressions of regret. Next door to the embassy at the Metropolitan club , where diplomats are ac customed to congregate , there was excite ment and warm discussions In various lan guages of the probable effect of Carnot's death upon the complications of European politics , which are widespread and Intricate. Up to a Into hour no official cablegrams had besn received , even at the French ombissy , and In default of such Information , the pres ident and secretary of state did not feel Jus tified In sending expressions of regret. Probably a majority of both houses of con gress had been driven from the city by the heat , but among those who remained there was much speculation as to whether the as sassination was of n political nature or was the deed of an Irresponsible crank. The trend of opinion was toward the latter be lief. Foreign representatives and officials acquainted with French polltlcss say Carnet was essentially a safe man ; one whom the French people relied upon , while they dl'd not gush over htm or accord him the dramatic following given leaders like Bou- langer. Carnet was considered an aesthetic , a hard working man and had what he termed a solid popularity. Cabinets have changed often In France of late , but there has been no talk of deposing Carnot. Much curiosity is expressed to know whether the feeling be tween France and Italy , which has lately been formed by the labor troubles , furnished the motive for the assassnlatlon. Senator Morgan , chairman of the foreign relations committee , said : "This Is a blow at the peace and Justice and civilization ot the world. France In bar long and eventful history has had for leaders more brilliant men than Carnet ; greater men probably as the world goes , but the French people have never had a president of borader , statesmen- like views on all grent questions or one who made greater sacrifices for her prosperity than he. And In return for his devotion the French people believed in him. Howas pop ular with all right thinking men and women throughout the nation and one whom no slander had ever Injured In their estimation. " The senator spoke feelingly of his death and said it filled him with profound sorrow and indignation that so great and good a man ns Carnet should be stricken down by the hand of an assassin. Representative Hitt of Illinois , who was charge d'affaires at Paris during the event ful years from 1874 to 1881 , and In the last congress was chairman of the foreign af fairs committee of the house , spoke of the dead president as a man of pure life and un sullied character and reputation. No man In France , In his opinion , was held In higher esteem or more thoroughly deserved the confidence and love of the people than he. When Mr. Hitt first became acquainted with him ho was n member of the assembly , and wts regarded as entirely safe nnd conserva tive on all Important questions. He stead fastly grew In the estimation of the people who recognize In them the qualities Franco needed in a leader. Senator Sherman , ex-chairman of the com mittee on foreign relations , was visibly af fected on hearing the news of Carnot's death , and exclaimed : "This is a. crime against civilization. I regard Carnet as one of the strongest men France has had In many yearsj.He could always do the sensi ble thing on every occasion. He was thor oughly republican in his Ideas and had the greatest respect and admiration for Amer ica and Amcrlcnns. " Senntor Sherman met him In Paris four years ago and recalled the reception given on the Fourth of July In commemoration of Independence day. On this occasion , Presi dent Carnet spoke of America as the model republic of the world and bespoke for her a glorious future. Senator Sherman was greatly Impressed with the earnest nnd unostentatious manner of the French president , and said he consid ered him one of the greatest. If not one of the most brilliant , men France had ever known. AMKKICAX EJMTUJtlAL EXPRESSIONS. Victim of the A sa Kln'i DicBcr the Re public' * llcnt Friend. SAN FRANCISCO , June 24. The Call says editorially : One of those Inexplicable pur poses which sometimes finds a lodgment In the hearts of men prompted the taking of the life of one of the truest patriots who have given their lives to their country In the present century. There Is nothing In the circumstances of Carnot's death to In spire distrust of the existing form of gov ernment. On the contrary , the blood of the martyr will nourish the republic. It all were not republicans when the assassin stole upon his vistlm , all art ) now. The Chronicle : The brutal assassination of President Carnet of France can only bo attributed to the malignity of some crank , who had personal or national motives which Impelled him to commit the crime. At this writing nil that we know of the assassin Is that he Is an Italian. The political effect of his crime will be less should It turn out that he Is an anarchist than If It Is proved that his murderous blow was prompted by more Intense race feeling , which not many months ago found expression In the Algues- Mortes riots. To Frenchmen ot whatever party , the death of Carnet will come as a shock. He was the ideal president of the French republic. The Examiner : In the assassination of the president of the French republic modern anarchy has achieved Us highest atrocity , the murder ot Czar. Alexander II. was a revolutionary outbreak peculiar to Russia , but the attack on Carnet Is a menace to every ruler In the world. It Is the most ominous thing that governments have ever had to confront. The man who stabbed Carnet has his mates In every capital of Europe and America. His success will nerve the anarchists , and throughout the world , from Grover Cleveland to Alexander HI. , there Is no head of a state whose life Is not endangered by tonight's work. KANSAS CITY , June 24. The Journal will say : The assassination of President Carnet brings the world face to face with a universal problem of the time. Shall the regulation of society by systematized gov ernment prevail , or shall the disaffection of boys HMO amis EMI QUAKER OATS the turbulent-minded be allowed to bullil nn crn ot terrorism upon the slim foundation of Indlvldunl discontent , The spirit which nerved the- arm ot Carnofs assassin Is liar * bored In ono form or another In every land tuvlng a civilized government. It lurks In every nation under the guise ot personal liberty. It Is encouraged by the cownrdlcti of place seekers. It Is the co-partner of demagogues , ' and Is , the Incentive of every crime against law nnd order. The Times : The assassination of Presi dent Carnet was one of those Inexplicable atrocities that surpass understanding. A man ot liberal Ideas , humane Impulses and generous practices , his life has not been ot a nature to Incite enmities or provoke re sentments. Of all the public men In con tinental Europe , he was the last who would have been thought of as a victim of the assassin's malice. Hut his death at the hands of the miscreant who struck the fatal blow Is another proof that anarchism Is as unreasoning as It Is unjust and cruel. DENVnil. Juno 21. The Hepubllcan : The assassination ot Sadl Carnet , president of France , waa entirely without excuse nnd ranks ns ono ot the most unprovoked , cause less and brutal murders In history. Nothing was to be gained for the cause of liberty by the murder of a man who always had shown himself to be a friend of the people and n devoted supporter of republican Institutions. It would Indicate that the spirit ot anarchy Is rife In Franco and that the men who nro prompted by It are haters of all law and the enemies of what may bo called order. The Ilocky .Mountain News : The crime Is one which words ore scarcely adequate to condemn. It was not only n blow at Carnet , but at France and at good government every where In the world. It Is only another dem onstration of the fact that anarchy means destruction and that In Kuropo , at least , anarchists are murderers. Mob law Is never justifiable and personal violence Is always to be depreciated , but If there ever was n case In which It could bo excused It was when the French people saw their president stricken down by an assassin's knife.

All during the evening the news , ns It arrived , telling the details of the affair , was sought with Interest at the ulilto house. The announcement which cnmo shortly afterxvard that M. Carnet was dead was Im mediately told the president , who had hoped up to that time that the account of 1'resl- ilcnt Carnot's Injuries was exaggerated , and that he would live. As soon as official Information Is received from our representatives In France , the president will nt once send a message to the French government expressing the sym pathy and sorrow of the United States at the sad calamity which has befallen the sister republic. The French ambassador had not , up to a late hour , received any Information from his government concerning the assassination. He was Informed ot the assassination early In the evening by an Associated press re porter and was rendered almost speechless _ as he realized the extent of the awful dis aster. At first he was Inclined to question the Information , but as he became fully convinced that It was true , he asked eagerly for further Information and expressed deep est emotion nnd sorrow. He waited patiently for news from his government , but none came , and he at length retired to Clifton , his summer residence , Ittivlng orders that any message obtainable should be promptly be sent to him. He accounted for the fact that he did not receive a cable gram from his government to the excitement which he knew prevailed In Paris and Lyons , and also to the fact that on Sunday almost ail the ofllclals go to the country for the day. Ho said he could not account for the assassination of the president , who was extremely popular with the people , and who was about to complete hlH term of ser vice , having positively declined re-election.
