"Blondle" Clark's little Joke caused Grant O'Dell to bo called before Judge Keysor to show cause why he should not be committed for contempt of court In neglecting to obey a restraining order granted one day last week to prevent the sale of some property which had been levied on execution. The case grew out of a judgment of something over $100 , obtained In Justice Brandos' court by O'Dell against Elijah Stoddard and Mary D. Stoddard. The defendants are the owners of a farm just north of the city limits , and early last spring they removed to Texas. O'Dell afterward obtained his judgment to satisfy an old claim , and as the amount was not paid , Constable Clark levied on three horses and other property which the de fendants had left behind them. The Stod- dards got wind of this and brought suit to set aside the judgment on the ground of Inadequate service , and obtained a restrain ing order directing the constable not to pro ceed with tha sale. A few days after Clark mot the attorneys for the Stoddards and told them ho had sold and delivered "the property to his brother- in-law , John Bailey , for $12.3. The attorneys hustled back to court and "made a showing on which O'Dell was cited to answer to the charso-Qrcontempt.-l' > A > ldarlng | was had yes terday and Clark explained that It was all n joke , and the property In question was still Intact and waiting for the case to be decided.

At noon yesterday August Grl'mm , a farmer residing In the vicinity of Elkhorn , this county , met a couple of highwaymen right In the heart ot the city , and nil that saved him from being robbed was a pair of good , stout legs and the power to propel them , Grimm had coino to the city early In the morning for the purpose of hauling out a load of freight for ono ot the Elkhorn mer chants. Ho had loaded up his wagon and had driven Into the alley between Hartley and Howard and Thirteenth and Four teenth streets.

Just at noon , with his arms full of bundles , ho walked up the alley for the purpose of depositing his load In the wagon , after which ho Intended to hitch up and start for home. As ho turned around , after having de posited the bundles In the wagon , he was confronted by two men , ono. of whom had a 'pistol , which ho pointed nt Grimm's head. While this was going on the second man grabbed the farmer by the throat , exclaim ing , "D n you , give up your money , and do It d n quick , too. " J The man from Elkhorn does not lay any claim to being brave , but Instead of giving up his wealth ho gave a yell that was heard for blocks away , and breaking loose struck a gait that would make any professional sprinter turn green with envy. Ho ran to the police station , where he gave an accurate description of the two men and then re turned to the spot with a couple of detectives who were detailed to work up the case. A careful search was made In the vicinity , but no trace ot the highwaymen was discovered , though It was afterward learned that two men answering their description had crossed the bridge and had hurried on toward Coun cil Bluffs a short time after the assault had been made upon Grimm.

STANDS FOR STATE RIGHTS Missouri and tlio Stntj Department at Log * gcriicads Again , GOVERNOR STONE DEFIES CHIEF HAZEN Kxcrtitlvo IimUM on Imnltip ; \Viirriuit- for tlso in Money Not \\ltli- tiimlliip ; Order * from the federal ( lovcrnmcnl tu Drsliit. JACKSON , Miss. , July 1C. The Missis- slppl legislature nt Its lust session passed an act authorizing the governor , tlio auditor anil tlio treasurer to Issue treasury warrants In denominations of $5 sliould It become necessary to tide over the financial crisis. The Issue was limited to $200,000. It was the Intention o ( the legislature to 1m vo the warrants pass as money nil over the state. Immediately after the passage of the act the state auditor contracted with the St. Louis Hank Koto company for the printing of the warrants and the first Installment of $50,000 was delivered to the state treasury and placed In circulation a few weeks ago. Governor Stano has since received a dis patch from General llazcn , chief of the United States secret service at Washington , demanding that the governor send to him all of the unsigned warrants that have not pccn placed In circulation. Mr. llazcn telegraphed the St. Louis Hank Note com pany that the plates bo turned over to the government. In an Interview Governor Stone stated that he would not comply with Chief Ilazen's demand In any particular and that the Issue of the special warrants will be continued until the full Issue of $200,000 Is completed. The state olllclals regard Hazcn's demands as an unwarranted Interference and wilt not treat It seriously. They say that the demands were based on the assumption that these special warrants resemble too closely United States currency and violate the laws of the United States. This Is denied by Governor Stone , who says the act of the legislature Is approved by the best legal authorities In the country. The nrdltor has telegraphed the St. Louis Dank Note company not to pay any attention to Hazcn's demands. ST. LOUIS. July 1G. Inquiries at the offlco of the St. Louis Dank Note company re vealed the fact that the entire Issue of war rants has been completed and shipped to the Mississippi authorities. It Is , therefore , Im possible for the company to comply with the demand of Chief llazcn and he has been so notified. The plates from which the warrants were printed are In the possession of the Great Western Printing company of Chicago , for which company the St. Louis corporation acted as agent In this Instance. The St. Louis company has been directed by Gov ernor Stone not to surrender the plates , but at the same time the local branch of the secret service has made an Imperative de mand for them , acting under Chief Ilazen's orders. What action may be taken In the matter will , the St. Lou's Bank Note com pany oIHclals say , be directed by the Great Western company , who have , however , been advised of Governor Stone's telegraphic In- structloni. _ _ Oregon Kidney Tea cures backach ?

At the meeting of the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners la-t night It was de cided to sppolnt no more police officers this year. The finance committee has been In vestigating the condition of the funds set aside for the fire and police departments and report that there Is a balance of 131,100.99 In the fire fund for tl > o mainte nance of the department for the ensuing six months. The balance remaining In the police fund Is $48,027.57 , and h only suffi cient to defray the expenses unt.l the end of the fiscal year. The Central Labor union presented a set of resolutions to the commissioners con demning the action of Chief Seavey In offer ing to send 1,000 men belonging to the Chiefs of Police union to Chicago to assist in sup- pre-slng the strikers during the recent diffi culties between Pullman and the A. U. U. They further condemned the alleged action of the chief In sending officers to meet Ho- gan's Commonweal army at the East Omaha bridge and attempting to force them to land on the Iowa side of the river. The mem bers of the Central Labor union committee asked the board to Investigate these acts of the chief , and If they found him guilty as charged , to remove him from the head of the police department. The matter was re ferred to the committee on men and dis cipline. The charges against the conduct of Officer Stiles by William Shiner turned out to be groundle-s , and before the trial was ended the officer sought to show that they were Inspired by malice , and that SIdner had been hired by Louis Shields to file these charges against him. About a year ago Stiles arrested Shields for assault , and the man then mads threats that he would get the officer fired from the force. Ofllcer Stiles had Mr. Gulll , manager of the Annex saloon , as one of his witnesses , and Gulll testified that SIdner came Into his place about six weeks ago and said to him that If he would testify against Olllcer Stiles there was money In it for him ( SIdner ) . Ho said that there wera parties who had It In for Stiles , and they would pay him well If ho got the ofllcer discharged from the force. SIdner told him that ho knew noth ing personally against the offlc'er , but that he was after the money. Dr. Allison Kolibcd.
