All Men llavn n Hubby ,
Every person you meet Is a crank on some
particular subject , and we believe all you
would have to do to make a dumb man talk
would be to strike him on his especial hobby.
One of the greatest hobbles In town Is ps-
tossed by Tom Hughes , down-town gent's
furnisher. His hobby seems to be neckwear.
You can find anything In that line from a
eoinnon Cc Windsor to the gaudiest scarf , and
the funniest part of It Is he doesn't seem to
care for making money out of them. His
lines at 25c , 35e , and 50c are particularly
itrong. If you are down In th ? neighborhood
it S19 Main street , drop In and luve him
ihow 'em to you.
What the OMlrUU Knr.
The reports of the meeting of the "Good

deal of Interest by the city ofllclals yester
day , even though tbcy did not feel enough
Interested the night before to go down to
the court house and dltpute the assertion that
they were all scalawags and blacklegs , and
DUght to bo In the penitentiary.
"There Is Just a little bit of Inconsistency.
It seems to me , " remarked one of this
much despised class of city officials yester
day , "In what this club says nt different
times. In one breath they roast us because
wo don't use the sinking fund to make up
deficler.clet In the general fund , and then
In tbo next one they say we ought to go to
the penitentiary because wo tranifer money
from the police fund to the general fund.
What do they want us to do ? If they will
tell us we'll try to do It , but It they are
( Imply talking for the fun of the thing It's
well for people to underatand "It. "

NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS
Gate Agnimt Richmond in the Federal
Court Dismissed by Judge Woolson.
LETTERS CONTAIN NOTHING INCRIMINATING
Mhcr Cnim Agnlnut Him Mill Likely lie
Dropped District Attorney I'nllcr
Think * Such Aisoclntloni
Need Wntchlnc.
Judge Shlras decided the case of the
United States aggatnst W. 3. Richmond ,
he promoter of the Union Building and Sav-
ngs association of DCS Molne ; , In accord
ance with his remarks just before court
closed Friday afternoon. The only question
was , did the defendant violate the United
States law In mailing a letter In further
ance of a scheme to defraud. He thought
not , although he admitted that the scheme
.0 defraud had bcn well ventilated. The
ettcrs contained not the slightest allusion
to dividends , the association stock or Its
condition and said nothing that could be
construed as an Inducement to the people
to whom they were directed to subscribe.
Tli3 questions put to Richmond by Hrldcn-
stcln were only such as Brldenstcln had a
right to ask , and the answers he made were
only such as Richmond had a right to make.
As ho could sec nothing objectionable In the
letters , he Instructed the Jury to bring In
a verdict of acquittal , and this was done.
District Attorney Fullen states that It Is
liardly likely that another Indictment will
be brought against Richmond on the strength
of the representations made In the circulars
which he sent out , showing the financial con-
illtlon of the association , for he would find
It dim cult to make the charges stick. The
Jefense would be that Richmond was merely
ilolng his duty as an officer of the association
In booming It for all It was worth.
'We ought to have attacked this whole
system of national building and loan as
sociations , " said he In conversation , "for
they ore n good deal on the lottery plan.
The system of building and loan associations
started In the form of local concerns , which
were all right. They wre run on a safe ,
conservative , business plan , for the purpose
of aiding their members to build homes
for themselves. Most of the stockholders
weremen , who would never In the world have
owi > their own homes without some such
ilevlce to assist them. Then the national
loan associations came Into the field and were
run purely us a speculation , without any
thought of aiding in home building , but
merely to pay big profits and hold forth
mammoth Inducements to the public. They
mve forsaken the original plan , and the
ollicfrs In charge have been allowed to resort
to all sorts of shady transactions.
"Tho Council Bluffs subscribers paid In
$800 a month , and of that amount $123 was
nit Into the expense fund. Does ! It look right
that a man should have to pay a set of
officers 1C cents for managing the other
84 cents of every dollar he puts Into a con
cern. There Is something wrong In the way
Lhese things are manipulated. "
Judge Shlras refused to make any entry
In the cases of the government against J.
L. Crawford and J. W. Muffly , the under
standing being thru they will be attended
to at the next Des Molnes term. The prob
ability Is , however , that the result of Rich
mond's trial will be the dismissal of the
suits against his two alleged confederates.
Bven then , however , they will not be out of
the woods , by any means. Richmond Is un
der Indictment In Des Molnes for the em
bezzlement of the association funds , and
both he nnd Crawford are Indicted for con
spiracy to defraud. Doth of these cases will
ccme up fcr trial at the next term of the
district court cf Polk county.

DUnpppnrcil l.ntt December nnd Nothing ;
Ilm Since llccn llrnnl from Him ,
Where Is Fred Wltzke ? Up to last De
cember ho lived with his family at 328 Wil
liams strict , but since that time he has been
missing , and all efforts to locate him have
been fruitless. He was a soldier In the civil
war , and well known In army circles. For
Bomo years he was employed as track walker
for the Rock Island. Ills life had a great
deal of trouble In It. Drink proved the mas
ter of him , and little by little he became un
able to provide his family with the necessa
ries of life. Last December ho came home
one day and told the members of his family
that he had decided to go away and they
would never see him again. There seemed to
u ? no love lest between theni , and they made
but llttlo opposition to the plan.
During the past winter his family has been
cared for by the overseer of the poor and
the commissioner of the soldiers' fund. Two
of his eons died of consumption during the
last twelve months , and another Is new slowly
sinking with the * same disease. They have
been dependent en their friends for what the
county did not furnish them , and In this way
have managed to get along , although thslr
homo Is a desolate enough place.
When Wltzko went away he took his pen
sion papers with him. He hid drawn his
quarterly pension money October 1 , but most
of that was gen J. J. Watts , the commis
sioner of the schllers' fund , Instituted Inquiry
at the pension ofllc ? In Des Molr.ea , hoping to
find where he had drawn his last two quar
terly stipends. The letter he sent was re
ferred to Commissioner Lochren at Wash
ington , and yesterday Watts received a letter
stating that nelth r the January nor the
April pensions had been drawn. From this
It looks very much as thcugh he had com
mitted ciilcldo , for he did not have money
enough to go very far , and If he had been
alive he would have bren very apt to collect
the money aa fast as It became due.

Some one who wanted to see a bright fire
stuck a match under an empty house at 18
North Sixteenth street yesterday morning at
4:30 : o'clock. There U a row of email houses
running frcm Broadway to Avenue A , and
they arc all empty. The Idea of the Incen
diary evidently was to clean out the whole
outfit , The fire bad a good start before the
department wag notified , as the penon who
discovered It ran to the engine house on
lower Broadway , nearly a mile away , to
live the alarm. The house was entirely de
stroyed , but the firemen kept the flames
'rom the other bulldlngp. The burned bulld-
'ng belonged to a man named Brown , who

aw of S. Goldstein of this city. The damage

The meetings now being led by Rev. P. T.
Plerson are arousing greater Interest In re
ligious matters than any that have been held
here for years. Every night last week the
First Presbyterian church was filled , and
the sermons were Interesting and eloquent.
Mr. Plerson Is a vigorous speaker , almost
being carried away at times by the force of
Ills own rhetoric. Ho "talks with a vengeance
and quits with a snap , " to paraphrase one of
his own remarks , and when he has said all
lie has to say , the audience has no doubts on
the subject. He lays down the truths he
desires to Impart In a convincing manner.
Ills assistant , F. T. Johnson , Is a valuable
one , the music under his direction being an
important feature of each service.
The following Is the program for today's
meetings :
9:30 : a. in. Presbyterian church. Mr. Pier-
son will Bpenk , subject : "The Baptism of
the Holy Spirit. "
10:30 : n. m. Usual preaching services In nil
the churches. .
4 p. m. Presbyterian church , union 'youne
psople's meeting , conducted by Mr. Plerson.
7:30 : p. m. Presbyterian church , Mr. Pler-
pen will address men only ; admission by
ticket. These tickets can be had at the
drug stores , free , or at the door Sunday
evening.
7:30 : p. m. Baptist church , Dr. T. II. Cle-
land of Unluth and Dr. John Askln will ad-
repH women only.
7:30 : p. m. Broadway Methodist Episcopal
church , service for all , led bv Hev. Conrad
Hooker : addresses by Hev , L. B. Wicker-
sham of Atlantic and Hev. V. C. Rocho.

begin nnd close the same hour , so that
friends can come nnd return together. Those
living at a distance are risked to bring their
lunch nnd spend the day In town ; the
churches will be opened throuahout the day
for their accommodation.

A pleasant event , and one out of the or
dinary , took place at the Christian home
Thursday evening. It was the first wedding
In the home. The young people were Mr.
Frank E. Marsh and Miss MinnieCampbell. .
Mr. Marsh Is the adopted son of Matron
Dakan , and has been living In the home for
more than ten years. Miss Campbell has
been connected with the office force for more
than a year. She Is a beautiful and InterestIng -
Ing young lady , who , after fitting herself
for a llfo work In the foreign mission field
and accepting an assignment In India , be
came acquainted with the orphanage , and felt
called upon to take up this work of labor
and love In the Interest of homeless children.
In the presence of a few Invited friends and
the Inmates of the homo the happy event
took place , the manager officiating. The
bride's dress was a handsome creme India
silk , sent to her from India by her sister ,
who Is now and has been In the missionary
work there for nine years. The groom was
dressed In the regulation black. Rev. Mr.
Davenport of Brlmfleld , 111. , who has spent
a number of years In the missionary fields
In Africa , acted as best man , and Miss Ward
as maid of honor. The presents were useful
as well as numerous and beautiful , and came
from friends In different states.
W. S. Cooper wrote about $30,000 tornado
Insurance yesterday. He has the strongest
companies , and It costs but little to get abso
lute protection. A wind storm may damage
your house a few dollars , or sweep It away.
The calamity would be lightened If you were
protected against all such Icrs. Indications
are that this will bea dangerous storm year ,
a belief shared by dozens of prominent men ,
who applied for protection yesterday.
There are lots of new things In vapor
stoves for the public to expsrlment on. Dan't
waste your money that way. Buy a Quick
Meal or a Reliable of Cole & Cole. They
have been tried and tested for years and are
safe and right.
It only costs $7.50 to carry $1,000 tornado
policy on your hous ? for three years. See
W. S. Cooper about It.

The High Echcols cadets , and particularly
tlielr girl friends , are particularly wrought
up over an Item that appeared In The Bee
yetterday to the effect that the drill Friday
night at the Coliseum In Omaha was the
work of young men who graduated from the
High school a ilecado ago , this being the ex
planatlon for the superior work done by the
Council Bluffs boys. The Indignation Is
principally due to what they term the dis
courtesy of the people of Omaha In Inviting
them over to give an exhibition drill and
then trying to discredit their work.
Superintendent Sawyer , when asked what
was the truth of the statement that the
cadets' ranks were filled up with Grand Army
veterans , said : "It Is entirely false. It Is
very doubtful If any of the boys who drilled
Friday night were In school nt all ten years
ago , Jt Is certain that none of them have
yet graduated. Two of them , the second and
third sergeants , Green and Lyon , graduated
last Juno from the two years' business
courses , but they went right on with one of
the four-year courses , and are Just ns much
High school pupils now as they ever were.
I was told by a member of the regular army
who witnessed the drill that t3ie work done
by the Council Bluffs High school cadets
was the best of the whole evening. "

If It Is true that the richest treasures arc
wrapped In the smallest parcel ? , then It Is
equally true that as actors the Llllputlans
are worth far more than the majority of their
full-grown contemporaries. These brilliant
little people will close their engagement of
seven performances at Boyd's theater on this
( Sunday ) evening In their spectacular pro
duction , "Humply Duuipty Up to Date. "
Their wonderful performances have given dc-
light to both old and young , and otter such
evidence that they have given , who can say
that fairyland does not exist ? One might as
well deny the actuality of Cinderella and
Red Hiding Hood , or say that Jack the Giant
Killer did not accomplish the wonderful feats
that have made him forever famous.
When one realizes the perfect Intelligence
of these little creatures , each one of whom
Is from two to three feet high , one feels
that one must bs preciously near that won
derful kingdom of clfs and gnomes where
one has only to express a wish or move u
wand In order to enjoy countless blesilngs ,
or behold , tripping before , myriads of wonder
fully diminutive beings. If the stage of the
Boyd becomes not Just now the real fairy
land , It Is because It Is something Infinitely
better. The little people who furnish the en
tertainment are not airy sprites ; they are
genuine , substantial men and women , who
live In the same world with the rest cf us.
who are carrying on a larger builness en
terprise than most full-grown men are for
tunate enough to control , and who act with
Intelligence and finish that far surpass the
efforts of the average player.
Sousa's grand concert band , the most pro
nounced musical success of recent years , will
bo heard here In two concerts on Tucslay ,
May 14 , and Its coming will be a most In
teresting event to all professionals and music
lovers. The history of military bands shows
no parallel to the favor which this organiza
tion has attained within the two years of Its
existence. Such a result could be achieved
only by musical merit of the highest order ,
Intelligently nnd conscientiously presented to
the public. Mr. Sousa long ago demonstrate , !
that he Is In every way a masterly band con
ductor. He maJo the Marine band of Wash
ington famous for Its excellence , and followe'
this by organizing , two years ago , for Mana
ger Blakely , what has repeate-dly and uni
versally been proclaimed the finest concert
band ever heard In America. It will be the
general desire , therefore , of all to hear the
playing of this peerless organization when It

Emily Baucker and a selected company of
artists , known cs the leading exponents of
po'lshcd ccmedy , pUy an ingaement at Boyd's '
theater on WeJnesday and Thursday , May ID
and Iti , when Mrs. Musgrave's great come-ly
hit , "Our Flat , " will be prcjenteJ. It Is said
to be one of the rare treats of the season , nnd
a genuinely great and deserving success. It
Is now enjoying quite a long run at' the
Strand theater , London , where It has nearly
reached Its 800th performance. It was first
produced In America by Daniel Frohman at
the Lyceum theater , New York , where It
played 100 consecutive nights to enormous
business. "Our Flat" In a nutshell Is one of
the most amusing and cleverly put together
plays of Its kind seen In years. The Intro
duction of high class numbers will be a fea
ture of the performance. The scenery will
bo new and novel , while the costuming will
overshawow anything seen In eomo time. Tde
cast speaks for Itself , Including Tom Rlcketts ,
P. H. Ryley , George W. Parsons , J. G. Glen-
ney , W. H. Wallls , Marlon Van CourtlanJ ,
Leo Jarvls , Vesta Verne and others.
The paper has been hung upon the outer
wall announcing that "the boys with the
horns are coming , " In other words , that the
annual Elk minstrel entertainment will take
place at Boyd's theater one- week from to
morrow evening. The long window hangers
and the lithographs seen In the store windows
dews and In the Interior of business places
about town add emphasis to the announce
ment. They tell a very amusing story , In
effect that ten funny end men , every one
of whom Is well known throughout the city ,
will , under the interlocution of J. Edgar
Owens , crack the liveliest kind of new and
original Jokes , many of which will be at the
expense of other men about town equally
as well known. If not more so , than them
selves. The Elk quartet and popular soloists
will Intermingle with the humor of th ? evenIng -
Ing a number of the most popular songs of
the day , to all of which new words have
been set , giving local application to the
songs. The first part will be a picture long
to bo remembered , with an elaborate stage
setting for a background. Sixty of the most
active members of Omaha lodge of Elks ,
In full evening dress , with black curly wigs
and blackened faces , will entertain a house
packed with their friends for about an hour
and a half. Then will como a few special
ties and sketches In the olio , occupying per
haps three-quarters of an hour , the perform
ance concluding with "The Wedding of Sarah
Jane , or the Conspirators of Park Avenue , "
written expressly for the occasion by T. H ,
Hodder. The performance will excel that of
a year ago. The tickets now being sold by
members can be exchanged next Saturday
morning at 9 o'clock at the Boyd theater box
office. One year ago many people went to
the theater at the hour named for the open
ing of the- - sale and were surprised to see
a line of people there who had been waiting
from G o'clock In the morning. In consequence
quence , although the rule limiting the num
ber of tickets to each purchaser was rigidly
enforcsd , about 700 seats were told In the
first hcur , and those who were late ( although
they thought they were eariy ) had to take
seats that were not satisfactory to them.
The lesson to be learned Is to b ? In time
when the sale opens next Saturday morning.
The approaching engagement at Boyd's
theater of Mr. Peter F. Dalley and his
collection of farceurs promises , to make an
epoch In the local history of high-class en
tertainment of tha light and airy sort. The
play which seeks to Introduce the Jocund
Peter and his companions Is entitled "A
Country Sport , " suggestive of a lot of fun
and built expressly to fit the unique talents
of Mr. Dalley by Mr. John J , McNally , the
dramatic critic of the Boston Herald. Though
a long favorite In farce , Mr. Dalley first
essayed to star last season , and , as was
predicted by everybody familiar with his
varied accomplishments , he was promptly
Installed by the public In a very exalted
position among the farce comedians of the
day. Talented May Irwln , comical John G.
Sparks , grotesque Ada Lewis and sweet-
voiced Andrew Mack will again cavort In
"A Country Sport , " while others of meritor

by her that the receipts shall reach a speci

and prepared for a good production , with a
view to sending the piece on a tour.
A letter to the > dramatic editor from Man

"Little Christopher , " "Too Much Johnson , "
"Pudd'nhead Wilson , " "The Fatal Card , "
"The Foundling , " with Cissy Fitzgerald In
the cast , and "Captain Paul. " These ttiows
have all done big buxlness , and are still doing
It. "The Fatal Card" has made a wonderful
success , and they tell me things look a little
melodramatic for next season.
The outlook for the testimonial to Charles

months ago. My catarrh was of the wor t

It went all through me , acting- like n slow
blood poison. Some time after the catarrh
appeared 1 began to have regular hay fever
with Inllame-J nnd wntery nose nnd eyes ,
sore throat , headache nnd u suffocating
cough with paroxysms of sneezing. In snim-
inera I could scarcely sleep nt all , during
the night I always took cold. Often 1
would cough and sneeze for an hour at a
time by the clock. These attacks were so
exhausting that I was unable to work at
all In warm weather. In short , I was n
complete Invalid.
" The great thing about my treatment
was that It proved genuine and lasting. A
few treatments gave me comfort and

Mr. W. S. Coin , chief detective of the
Alton , who help d make the arrest , was the

quest. He said that Bryant , a beardless boy
of 18 years , made a statement to him after
his arr'st. Bryant told him that on the night
of May 1 , In company with Myers and Frost ,
he started frcm Cramers with the Intention
of holding up the Chicago & Alton train and
robbing the passengers. All were armed
and masked. Bryant says that Myers was the
ringleader , and made him ( Bryant ) and Frost ,
after they got on the front end of the mall
car , climb over the tender and Instructed them
on penalty of death to hold up the engineer
and run the train to Anderson switch , a se
cluded spot , and rob the passengers.
On reaching the engineer's cab , Bryant
says , Frost entered first and flourishing his
revolver , ordered the engineer to hold up hli
hands. Frost , he thought , fired first , and
was sure that ho hit the engineer , who re
sisted from ths first. The engineer struck
at Bryant with a coal pick , and ho fired at
him three times. As soon as they discovered
that the engineer was killed , they Jumped
from the train nnd fled. Bryant said Myers
and Frost did the planning of the robbery , and
said that Myers told them frequently that If
they did not do aa told them , he would kill
them.

Myers broke down and made a confession.
He stated that ho planned the Job and that
Frost and Bryant had done the shooting.
They had mads overtures to Hayward Sim
