The Oklahoma plan of settling disputes
was transplanted Into Council IllufTs yester
day afternoon by two brash and breezy boys
from the wilderness , with great success at
first , but subsequent developments may
change the look ot things. Mike Kennedy
and George Simpson were the two Oklahoma
boys , and they had with them eleven horses ,
which are at the bottom of the difficulty.
Kennedy and Simpson blew Into town
from Oklahoma yesterday and spent the entire -
tire day admiring the frescoing on the sa
loon ceilings In various parts of the city
through the bottoms of beer schooners. Hy
the middle of the afternoon both were In a
condition that bordered on the hilarious.
Simpson had been working for Kennedy for
$10 a month , but Kennedy had not kept
his salary paid un to date. Simpson Insisted
on having tno money , and eald that It he
was not paid he would tell where the horses
came from , Intimating In unmistakable lan
guage that the horses were stolen. Kennedy
was not brought to taw by this threat , and
he coaxed Simpson away from the corner
f Uroadway and Ilenton street , where the
tiarrul first started , along Harrison street
.award . Crescent.
When the Harrison street school was
cached Simpson says Kennedy pulled a
uge 45-callbre revolver out of his pocket
nd said : "Now , you , I
m going to kill you. " How nearly he
ame to carrying his threat Into execution
a well shown by the present condition ol
Impson's head and face , for there are twc
aping wounds on the top of his head
caching to the bone , several largo cuts or
Is face , and three cuts on the back of hi :
iand , evidently made while Simpson hail
Is hand raised to ward off the blows frorr
he big gun. Simpson fell to the ground , al <
nest unconscious , and Kennedy whipped ui
Is team and drove off , taking the "clever
orses with him.
Word was sent to Marshal Gumming , and
Deputy Marshal Canning and Patrol Drlvei
elm Sandel took the wagon and went Ir
ursult of the two combatants. They found
ilmpson lying In the rear of the house jusi
or Ui ot the school building , where he hai
cen brought from the sidewalk. He wni
ardly able to talk coherently , from the com
lined effects of the jag and his wounds
Ic was loaded Into the wagon amd chase wa :
Iven Kennedy. Ahe officers went as far ai
road house on the Crescent City road , threi
ulles east of the city , finding traces of thi
ugltlve at every house they passed. Tin
iatrol horses became weak In the lenses
ml had to be walked back to town.
Marshal Canning telephoned to Crescen
mid found that the fellow with the clevei
liorses had just pasesd through not mor
han two minutes before , on his way north
to asked the local authorities to arrest him
and Justice Menary hurried out , armed wit ;
a shot gun and mounted on his falthfu
mule. Ho overhauled the Oklahoma mai
about a mile north of Crescent , and , level
ng his shotgun at him , compelcld him t
throw up his hands. Kenedy was thei
taken back to Crescent , and Menary an
Denver Hough brought him to Councl
'Huffs last night , depositing him In the clt
Jail.
Simpson says Kennedy Is a very ba
man , has robbed several trains , killed hi
man , hobnobbed with Cherokee Hill , and I
other ways proved himself to bo a thoroug
; entleman of the Oklahoma type.

Vlntt HroMu-rB Trll an Interesting Ktor.T
About Milk Coriitnlmiloner ricminliiR.
The trial of John G. and James A. Wlntt
n the charge of selling milk that illd not
ome up to the 3 per cent test attracted
n good deal of attention In Justice Cook's
: ourt yesterday. Deputy State Milk In-
ipcctor Reuben Flemmlng was the prosecut-
ng witness. He testified that he made a
est May 5 , finding that the milk sold by
Wlatt Dros. did not come up to the required
standard , and ho had them arrested In con
sequence.
The description of the way In which he
ested the milk called forth an objection
rom G. II. Scott , the attorney who repre
sented the defendants , he claiming that ac
cording to the law Flemmlng had no au-
.horlty to make tests , but only to collect
milk for his superior officer to test. This
wns debated nt considerable length by
Scott and County Attorney Saunders , but the
question was not definitely decided.
When the Wlatt Uros. brought In their
customers to testify to the quality of milk
sold the court room was nearly full , nnd
every witness said the milk was of a satis
factory quality. An Interesting feature of
Lhe testimony of the defense was the charge
Ijy both Wlatts that Flemmlng had proirased
a cash settlement In lieu of a trial , convic
tion and fine.
'Flcmmlng called on me three days after
making the test , " said James Wlatt , "nnd
told me there was no need of my being ar
rested , that I could settle It for $10 and no
ono would be the wiser. I told him that I
was simply In the business In order to help
my brother , who Is very poor , and I did
not think I ought to be made to pay any
such amount for something I had nothing
to do with. After we had talked a while
ho offered to come down to $5 , If I didn't
feel like paying $10. I told him I would
talk the matter over with my brother , but
wo never made the settlement he proposed. "
When John Wlatt was put upon the stand
ho testified that ho did not own the herd ,
but was merely attending to It for his
brother. He said that Flemmlng had asked
him to make a cash settlement , using about
the same words as those quoted by his
brother , excepting that no amount was
named. As he was not financially Interested
in the dairy , he was discharged , and Justlcs
Cook took the case under ndvlsement so fnr
ns James Wlatt was concerned.

Mrs. Nonck'n Tlilrd Fire.
Mrs. Noack has had two Ineffectual at
tempts made to burn her out , but yesterday
the third attempt succeeded , and her house
at the corner of Fourth avenue and Twenty-
sixth street , with all Its contents , was
burned down. The fire started from an ol
stove upstairs. Some of tlm nelglibon
rushed In to help , but Mrs , Noack refusei
to let them como In , although there was r
piano Inside and some other furniture tha
might easily have been saved. An alarn
from box 43 called out the Jower Hroadwaj
'
company , but the house was so far froit
the fire plug that 2,300 feet of hose wen
needed , but only 1,800 could bo had. Ai
alarm a few minutes later from box 41
brought the South Main street company t (
the spot , and with 500 feet of hose from It !
cart the fire was put out , but not until thi
building was almost a total ruin. Then
was $ SOO Insurance on the house and $ COI
on the furniture. Mrs. Noack was jus
about to leave the city for the west.

LINCOLN , May 31. ( Special. ) While en
gaged In splitting wood at his residence today ,
Frank' Burke , a switchman formerly In the
employ of the llurllngton , chopped off his
arm with a broad axe. While switching
cars a few weeks ago llurke had the fingers
of his left hand crushed between the cars.
As a result of that accident the fingers on
that hand1 were amputated. Today while
holding a piece of wood with that hand he
attempted to cut off the end of It with the
axe. I3y some means , when the oxe-descended
It landed squarely across the wrist. The heavy
blade sank through the arm , completely
evcrlng both bones , so that the hand hung
by a mere shred of flesh to the wrist. llurke

Another distressing accident occurred to
Moses Ilarlow , a university student , while at
work In the chemical laboratory. He at-
empted to clean out a tube with nitric acid ,
one end of which ho placed In his mouth
'or the purpose of blowing Into It. He falhd
, o realize that the other end pointed directly
lowarel his face. As he blew the acid spurted
'orth and covered his face and eyes. His
companions In the laboratory threw him on
the lloor and were obliged to remove his
'lands from his face by force. He was ai
ones taken to St. Elizabeth's hospital , where
medical assistance was rendered. The doctors
: iopo to save one eye , but are not at all con-
lldent regarding the other. Young Darlow Is

the dog , which was killed at the time , was
really affected by rabies , had died from a

Dr. W. S. Demaree , the new physician o
the penitentiary , will assume the duties o
his office tomorrow. Ho was down at th
pen today and made an examination of th
colored convict , W. M. Jordan , who wa
struck by Keeper Z. T. White e'ght day
ago. Dr. Demarca says the man Is not In
jured In the least , and that up to ycsterda ;
ho worked rolling and piling barrels eve
since the assault. Hut yesterday the o ]
prison physician , Dr , Houtz , cupped Jordai
In four places on the back. Jordan hlmscl
says this was entirely unnecessary. It I
the opinion of Dr. Demarce that this cup
ping was done simply for political efTecl
While Jordan was cupped on the back , In hi
sworn testimony before Governor Holcomb h
states that he was hit a light blow on th
side , and under the right arm , Prison dls
clpllno requires the convicts to salute th
guards and keepers by raising the right arr
to a point above the head. It Is allege
that Jordan's back has been so severely In
Jured that cupping In four places was nee
essary. but the convict has no dldlculty a
all In raising his right arm to the require
height. The governor has given the matte
a pretty thorough investigation , taking th
testimony of Warden Leldlgh , Keeper Wht ! <
Convict Jordan , Deputy Wagner and severs
others , and Is prepared to submit his find
Ings to the Board of Public Lands an
Buildings. So far as Warden Leldlgh I
concerned , he will not receive a very larg
shower of censure. Jordan was sent down t
the pen from Omaha December 31 , 1893 , fc

Following this sensation comes another I
the shape ot a story told by n discharge
keeper to the effect that n guard last wee
shot at one of the prisoners. Warden Le
dlgh says that a convict named Coleman a
tempted to run nway from a stone pi !
where he was at work. The keeper ordere
him to halt , but the convict kept on runnlni
The keeper then fired -Into the ground , an

Make a nhtte custard as follows : Two
tablespocmfuU corn starch wet ltd with enough
cold water to illuolve It ; 1 cup granulated
sugar. 4 cup lAitter ; stir together In a 'pud
ding mold or earthen dish and pour on
enough boiling water to make thick custard ;
beat tha whites of three eggs to snow , ' stir
Into the custard und set It In the oven to
Lake fur fifteen minute ! or for the fame
length of time In a 'rot of boiling water ;
set aitde until perfectly cold ; then remove
the slight crust that will have formed on the
lop ; have ready dl h In which you arc to
serve your ciutard and some frcfli , ripe
bnnanai minced finely ; mix with the cuatard
and pour Into the dl h and add a meringue
made of th * beaten white ol three eggs and
H teacupful pulverltfd pink sugar. A flna
custard raty be made according to above
i receipt by urtng peaches Instead of bananas ,
'
or Uurtlett pears. Milk should never be used
I with acid fruits , particularly In warm
weather , and pure cream In any quantity Is
i n severe lax on a weak stomach. The cus-
I tards for which formulas are given
I here can be made thus , as real cream
; answer ibe same purpose , are quite as
palatable lu most cases as the ordinary milk
anil cri'nm , without danger of being curdled
by the acidity of the fruit. Tapioca , arrow
root , etc. , may be substituted for corn starch
lu the making ot these custards , and pine-
tipples , strawberries , raspberries , are delicious
served In thU way. Custards with an extra
allowance of butter and a flavoring Df Royal
Extract Vanilla , Almond or Rose , make de
licious cream plea. Bake with either one or
two crusts of rich puff paste. If the former ,
add a meringue. Uy using the yelk * as well
as the whites of eggs and using the gratt
rind and Juice of lemons and oranges , (
both , delicious orange and lemon pies ai
made. These should be made with only or
crust.
Jlyelonlc Crenin .Sauce.
One half pint milk , % pint cream , yelk
egg , tablespoonful buckwheat dissolved In II
tie milk , large pinch salt. Bring milk ar
' cream to boll. In thick , well lined saucepai
add to It buckwheat dissolved In milk , stl
ring rapidly to prevent lumping , allow It i
boll five minutes ; remove from fire , beat ]
the yelk of egg diluted with a tablespoonf
milk. This Is better and far more healthfi
( especially for children ) than so much butti
and syrup. Syrup mnlus butter Is we
enough , but use of butter with hot caki
cannot be recommended ,

Tragic Sequel to a Scare from Homo

TERRIBLE MISTAKE OF AN IOWA MAN
Citizen of Miir lmlltouii Awnkpncil Suit-
ilenly In the Night Driur * it 1'litol
from Under HU I'lllow unit
Kltli Ills Wife.
DKS MOINES , la. , May 31. iSncclaU A
question that Is puzzling the peace offi
cers of the city of Marshalltown Is whether
or not Mrs. Lewis Hall was the vlctltn of a
terrible mistake. Hall's version of the affair
Is that burglars tried to enter his residence
a week ago , nnd that he bought a revolver
to bo ready for the next attempt ; that about
3 o'clock yesterday morning his wife , who
slept In the front part of the bed , woke him
and said some one was trying to get In.
Next ho snatched the revolver from under
his pillow and fired at the dim outlines of
a form bending over him , which proved to
bo his wife , and then , realizing his awful
mistake , he at once aroused his neighbors.
The fatal shot took nfTect In the left cyo
and lodged In the brain , producing death five
hours later. The victim partially regained
consclousnes for a few minutes , but was
unable to give any account of the shooting.
The husband appears nearly frantic with
grief and neighbors believe the deed was
unintentional. The dead woman was his
third spouse. Hall Is an electrician and
had quarreled bitterly with his \\lfc lately.
This evening , Sunday afternoon nnd even
ing , there will be grand concerts In the
pavllllon at Courtland Reach by the First
Regiment band , Nebraska National Guard ,
I'rof , Herman Sclumke , director. The con
cert this evening will begin at 7 o'clock , on
Sunday afternoon at 3:30 : , nnd Sunday even
ing at 7 o'clock. Concerts by this famous
band will continue to bo ono of the features
of the IJcacli.
Owing to the Inclement weather of Me
morial day , which prevented ninny who so
desired from witnessing the sensational
fu.U of diving Into the lake at Courtland
Beach and recovering a needle by 1'aul Al
exander Johnstone , the celebrated mind
reader , the gentleman will attempt the feat
again Sunday. His performance ot Decora
tion day on other lines will bo repeated. At
about the s < aine hour 1 o'clock Mr. John-
stone will run a motor car from the corner
of Fourteenth nnd Douglas streets to the
Uench. Afte-r the dive , for an hour or
more Mr. Johnstonu will give many start
ling exhibitions on an elevated stngc In the
amphitheater , whlcli will be lighted by
hundreds of electric lamps.
Comfortable seats have been provided
