A llllle one-story cottage at the southeasl
corner of forty-first and California streets Is
the homo of Mrs. Amanda Zelglcr and her
eight children. The oldest ot these Is a girl
/ of 12 , while the youngest Is a babe In arms.
Since the Davenport school was established
; five years ago Mrs. Zelglcr ha been the Jan-
llor of the building. Her husband Is a tailor
whoso savings are small , anil Mrs. Zelglcr's
wages were the family's chief support. Hut
now Ihat revenue has coised. No one seeme
lo know a reason for such acilon , but n
pitiless majority of the Hoard of IWncallon
has said that she must be sacrificed , and the
poor woman Is nearly broken hearted as she
gathers her brood around her and wonderr
how Ihey are to b ; fed during the months
that are to cotnc.
The retiring principal , Ml s Margaret Vin

KclRlor and supplemented her communication
by personally presenting her case lo some
of the members of Ihe board. Mr . Jeinnello

A rafllo suit Is In progress before Justice :
Haldwln , In which the parties Interested are
trying to recover possession of a pony , cart '

A. Flxa. Dan Ilonln drew the lucky number
and the Judges awarded him the prize. In the
meantime J A. 1'owers had secured a Judg

coedcd , but before ho could carr } out his plan
ri\a locked up the property and refused to
allow the ccnstalde lo 1m c access to It. The
constable was nol lo bo bullied In any such
way as that and hurried down to Ihe justice

with this he had the pony , cart and harness
tclzcd. Once In the custody of the law , he
argued that ho could keep the property there
for It Iho renleylji suit Jailed he could still
place his execution upon It as teen ns It was
ascertained that the property was not hU

Parly Sunday morning Officer Sullivan did
a very neat bit of detective work , which It
would probably have taken several moons for
certain members of the detective force to
accomplish. If Ihe gray matter within their
heads ever obtained Ihe necessary \cloclly.
Wllhln two hours ho turned up two persons
who had robbed a man In Council Uluffs
without getting their de crlptlons , and found
Ihe larger part of Ihe stolen money In their
possession.
Oscar Hellgh Is a barber who works In the
shop at the transfer l-j _ Councl ] Bluffs Lite
Saturday night hcT'was walking along a dark
part of Ilroadway when he met a colored
woman. The woman accosted him , and He-
llgh , who was feeling his oats at the lime
and was overflowing with Ihe milk of humin
klndnes , answered her In a lone Ihat wjs not
at all hostile. The woman Immediately threw
her arms around his neck and , pressing him
lo her bo'om , she plinind a firm , soft and
luscious kiss on his lips. HoUgh liked that
pretty well , and being a firm believer In rec-
Iprcclly , ho didn't do a thing but return
as good as ho received The oscillatory em
braces were coming Ihlek and fasl when Iho
woman suddenly said Ihat her husband was
approaching and hurriedly departed A minute
later a colored min appeared from Iho dark
ness and after pausing a second before Ue-
llgh went on.
Hellgh was thinking thai ho must le n
pretty hot scrt of bo } to be kissed by women
on the fctreel , when , as a precaullomry
measure , he fe I Inlo his hip pocket to see If
his pockelbook was safe lie did not find It
there or In any other pcckct or on the ground
and he did not find $215 which It contalnel
Thoughts come npldly In times like those ,
and It did not take Hellgh long to tumble to
the facl Ihat ho was n t sjch a very hoi b y
after all but that he had fallen easily a vlc--
tlm to Ihe charming wiles of woman lie
filled the nc'ghborln atmosphere with a
large qtnntit } of heavy and burning chunks
of profanity anil then hurried to the police
"tatlon and reh'cd his little adventure
Hellgh could not tell much. His mind was
100 much filled with the money Ihat was
gone from him to allow him even to remem
ber the vvanr kl os which had filled his soul
with bll"s hut n short time before , but which
came so high. He could not describe the
woman ver } well , and he could not describe
the man nt nil but the police1 on Ibis side
of the river were notified of the robbery , and
were al o told thai Ihe woman and man
might be a colored couple by the name of
Miller Hcllgh also cimc over the river to
render any assistance
There were no dctecllves about Ihe stallon
and Officer Sullivan was called In from his
heal and Ihe ca o was placed In his hands.
He concluded Ihat If the parties were In the
city they were somewhere In Ihe Third ward
and he did not lose much time In going down
there After Fome search he discovered a
colored man who told him that a messenger
boy had been called to a lodging house at
101 South Eleventh street by n woman and
that she had pent him out with a message
for come "Miller" Sullivan wenl to the
lodging house , bill the pioprletor swore up
and down that Iherewas no colored woman
there Klnally the offlcer succeeded In con
vincing him that he was the man to whom
a colored woman had sent n note from the
house and he took him to her room. The
ofllcer knocked
"Who's cfar ? " came from the Inside In a
male voice.
"Ssh Shut up yo' fool nlggV. DIs an
Mlnky Jones. " whispered the officer , assum
ing the name of his negro Informant and
succeeding In concealing his rich brogue.
The door opened and the olllcer steppe
Into the room The negro's eyes began to
creep out of his head when he saw the
brass buttons and threalened to fall on the
Moor before ho came lo himself A negro
woman was also In Iho room. The olllcer
searched Die negro's clolhes and dlbcovere. .
the Kulen pocketbook , which still contained
$135 Hoth man and woman were taken to
the police stallon and gave their names as
John and Jennie Miller Hoth were searchei
again and In the man's shoe was found an
other $20 gold piece , making the entire
amount recovered $155
Jennie Miller acknowledged that she was
the woman who robbed Hellgh and promlsei
to obtain the remainder of the money , al
though she refused to tell where It was
planted The two will probably be takei
back to Council Hluffs today.

the 1'iiurtli of July.
"Optimism of the Fourth of July" was the
topic of Rev. Dr. John Gordon's sermon at
the Westrnlnsler Presbyterian church } cslcr-
day morning. He said ;
Since our last national anniversary the
chingo has been like that from midnight to
morning. That was the day for pesslmlsls ;
this Is the opllmlsls' day. Pourlh of July
last } ear we had Just escaped from Kelley s
threatening army by offering a thousand
pies to placate Ity devouring mouths. The
government was massing Its army at Wash
ington to keep Coxey off the grass plot In
front of the capltol. The railroads were par-
azed ! b } a smpalhctlc strike at Chicago
The nation was threatened with a suspension
of epecle paments. Commerce was para
lyzed , manufaclurlng suspended. Then came
the last terrible turn of the screw that added
the agricultural classes to those already suf
fering. U was the most disastrous and dan
gerous } ear cf the century. Now the dawn
IIT > come after a long , dreary night. The
gold reserve has risen above one hundred mil
lions. Manufactories are in op ° ratlon. New
mills and furnaces' are In process of conslruc-
tlon. The wages of the manufacturing classes
are being advanced Commerce is reviving
Cotton , petroleum , sugir , hides' , wheat and
Iron are advancing In price rapidly Rill-
roads are ordering new cars. Agriculture
shows such promise as never before The
night Is over , the day Is coming In so rapIdly -
Idly we cannot appreciate It.
Hut why' As plain as was God's hand In
the calamities that overtook us Is God's hand
in this blessed change. The } are alike the
Lord's doing and marvelous In our eei ?
There Is this difference , however , that while
the calamities were the direct result of our
sins , the change Is not the result of our
righteousness , but entirely for "Ills name's
sake. " He must be a good shepherd , whether
wo are good jr bad equally. What does It

this not suggest to us that God Is preparing
to make the last 5 ears of the nineteenth
century Its greatest } cars , and that we are
on the eve of such activity and prosperlt }
as we have never known If there Is to be
anything learned from the flgns of the times
It Is that this Pourlh of July will usher In
such a period of prosperity as the United
States , In particular , has never experienced
The nineteenth century has been the time
of the true discovery of America. We have
been going up and down the land and dls

The world moves Into light.

In all the } cars of our history as a natloi
we have never had an anniversary of ou
nation's birth when there was so much cam
for an optimistic spirit. I am deeply anxlou
that this } car of all others God's name ma }
be magnified In and through all these things
and that thereby the whole world may com
to a worthier comprehension of the God li
worship. This Is our God , who not for an }

Dr. Asa I.ntrd on tlin Cli iracterlstlcj o
UN Satnnti ! MuJrMy.
Last evening Rev. Asa Leard of the Kno
Prcsblerlan church began a series of ser
mons on Ihe general theme , "Every Da
Theology , " his special topic bslng "Th
Devil. " He said In parl.
It is our purpose to preach a series o
sermons on every day Iheology. We will con
sequenlly use every day names and terms
Now the Sunday name of the Individual o
whom we speak tonight Is "Evil Spirit , " eve
the name of "Satan" has something of a dig
nllled Sunday ring about It , but the devil
the Individual we meet in every day life.
The theologians talk about Satan , nice pee
pie admit the existence of the evil spirit ,
and children are warned against the "bad
man , " but you and 1 are pereonally ac
quainted with the old-fashioned devil ot our
fathers and grandfathers , back to Adam
Wo may nol bo proud of Ihls acqualnlance ,
but wo ma } Just as well admit It.
This doctrine of a personal devil Is not
very popular these days. No , Ihe doctrine of
a burglar In the house Is not very popular
either , but that does not make much differ
ence to the burglar. Ho docs not want pop
ularity , but } our pocketbook , neither does
It make much difference to the devil whether
the doctrine of his personality Is popular or
not Ho Is no stickler for theology ; all ho
wants Is jour soul.
Do } ou eay Ihere Is no devil ? Well. I
Imvo never had a very high opinion of hu
man nature , bat I have never dared lo make
Ihe charge so slrong as lo say Ihat all the
unutterable Iniquity In men's lives Is pro
duced without an } suggestion from a gchem-
Irg , hating , personal creituro of hell. Aboul
Ihe only charllable ( ' ) thing that can be said
for some people in Omaha Is that they are
deceived by the devil. One of trie devil's
most common deceptions Is in his boae'ed
wealth. Now , a great deal ot the wealth
thai Ihe devil boasts of Is very like tame
Omaha equities It Is a nonentlt } . Ho said
to Jesus , "I will give thee Ihe kingdoms of
Iho earth. " when the fact washe had not
one foot of ground on the earth to call his
own , nor a human being that he could com
mand beyond his will , lie sas to Ihe young
tippler , "I will give } ou friends and a good
time. " He has nothing to give but poverty
and rags and sorrow. He says to the de
faulter , "I will give you a palace and an
Independent fortune. " All be has to give
anbody IF a stone cell and hard work. All
the good things of this world , as well as of
the next , belong unto God. The devil Is a
vagrant , only permllled to go up and down
In the world lemptlng men. Would you
have true weallh and Joy and comforl7
Then come to God , who hath wherewith to
bestow.
Another feature In the character of the
devil Is his weakness. I know we are gen
erally taught to bel'eve that the devil Is
powerful , but this Is only with those who are
willing to be under his power , men ant ]
women who would rather bo ruled by him
than by Jesus Christ The tenderesl lltllo
child may successfully overcome this enemy ,
so weak Is he when facing a ChrlMlan. The
saint at the last moment , when unable to lift
a hand , is Invincible to the devil. He may
talk and talk and argue and try to penuadc
) ' . ° hut be cajanot barm ft UaJr $1 you ;
while you are clad In the armcr cf Jesus
He Is with you as with Ihe master He said ,
"Cast lhsclf down'from the pinnacle , " but
ho could not put forth his hand lo cast him
down.
Another thing about the devil Is his con
temptible Impudence.
. If a tramp should come Into your hou e
and begin to Rive orders to the family } ou
would not bo long'In getting the door clo cd
between you. The devil does th s. He si } " ,
"This Is a nice home } ou have ; now put a
bottle of brandy on } otir sideboard to pol on
} our boys ; put wrrthlefs nn ty borks In your
library that will corrupt } our daughters Take
that old bible off your table , put It out of
sjght and rait n deck cf cards In Its place "
liut } ou say , "Stop , my ? at"her ami mother did
nol talk that way " "Vour father and mother
were old fcols , " ho sas , "do what I bU } ou. "
Would any one el e dare venture on such
Impudence ns that with } ou ?
Are not these the experiences of every
day life' What ronso then , cm there be In
men den.vlni ; thai which Is taught In the
word of Go ] and In all human experience ?
You may eliminate the devil from } tur fine
theories , but he remains a most stubborn
fact In } our evryday experience and ob
servation. De'ter admit the fact and look
unto the lion of the Tribe of Juda for help.
"M.en don't believe In n devil
Now , ns their fiithus u etl lo do ;

f the apostle Paul and his achievements
nt the texl.
The address was seasoned with excellent
dvlce to JOUIIK men The major paid that
t was not ph } < dcal splendor that made men
real Some of the shortest and smallest j
nen had written their names the highest ]
nil In largest letters on the roll of fume
' .nil was not.a Smdow He was a giant ,
owever. In good deeds.
The speaker remarked that the personal
ronottn "I" could be appropriately and fre-
ineiilly used even under suspicion of ego
ism by men whose manhood and deeds war-
anled It A man first had to build up a
name and then his personality , If based on
: neilt , deserved proud reflection and even
made egotism paidonable.
He advised } ounR men to pay as they go
and to have a clear balance sheet with God
at the end of every da's work. There
should be a little over on the credit side of
; oed deeds In life. An honest set of books
, vlth the Supreme Manufacturer should be
kept. God made men and they should never
'orget that they were Ihe product. They
should "quit themselves like men" on all
occasions.
Major Halford said that Omaha needed
'more real men" nnd so did every commun
ity. "Men" were wanted badly , men of
iionor , true Christianity and noble charac
ter. Omaha had sonio , but needed moie.
Young men should build up character and
guard It Jealous ] } .
The address was concluded with a number
of timely suggestions , and at Us close Major'
Halford was greeted with applause prolonged
und vigorous.

Trusls and Ihe Whisky TrustThe trust
Ib the boil on the neck of Ihe modern body of
commerce. The whisk } business , the open
sore. And when > ou add bolls to a sere it
makes a combination peculiarly noxious. It
Is piling I'ellon upon Ossa.
Yet trusts are not strange , unnatural
things. They are the legltinnte outcome of
our present merciless , unjust , anachronistic
barbtrons business principles * . A sstem
built on such stones as "Might makes right , "
"De\ll take the hindmost , " "Moral and
humane Issues tme no place In political
economy , " "To restrict production is ? as legiti
mate as lo enlarge Ihe market , " a bstem
built on btich crumbling stones as these , I
say , normally de\elops the trust. The suc
cessful business man naturally gravitates into
the combine.
The sjmllcate Is the senior class of the na
tional business college.
The Illinois supreme court has rendered f
decision that is a sweeping blow at all trusts
so say the newspapers. Yes , and U-n Quixote
made a swabbing blow at the windmill Leg
( station against Injurious business comblna
tlons Is as futile as laws against the liquor
trafllc The disease lies deeper than courts
or lawmakers cjn probe. It lies In the wronj ,
convictions , habits , principles of the people
When Iho whole people shall awaken lo Ih
fact that they are co-operating for the boned
of the people , and not for Iho benefit of a
few capMlns of Industry , then , and only then
will the commercial e\ll begin to alnte The
dl\lne right of wealth In 1S95 Is as unfounde
as the dl\lno right of kings In lf.95 Wt
Invo changed fetiches. Then we worshlpei
royalty , now money. The wealth power
should bo used by the people and for Ihe
people , because It Is of the people , just as
much as the law rower ,
"Hoot ! Hoot1" sab I'lugson of Undershol
"Listen lo this preacher talk anarchy am
socialism " Well , my dear I'lugson , go thoi
and learn what this meaiuth "There Is dan

blind conservatism. " The pulpit Is a soclall *
thus far- That all power over people , as fj
as It originates from the people , should be
limited and administered by the people The
pulpit tecs no reason why Mr , Sago shonli
