IT * llojn lij n Score ofI to O. Decidedly the most hotly contested gsmc of foot bill wltneiifd In this city this year was played jcsterday morning at the Hold club grounds. The fact that this was the last game ot the season , and that Council Illuffs had not yet a taste ot defeat , was a halt that drew a largo audience , In which the fair tcx , with much orange and white nailing arounda ? largely In evidence , lloth teams were on their mettle , at > the score , 4 to 0 In fa\or of Nebraska City , amply show * . Nebraska City had the advantage of their opponents In weight by about fifteen pound ! , one of Its striking features being n center rush whose weight wa * about 230 pounds. In the first half Council muffs did same splendid playing , Stuart , Hess nnd Uffelman especially distinguishing themselves. More- house made n good left end In place of Rvcrott. There was pomecry bid work done , however , In pacing the ball. There \3 \ no doubt tint Council DlufTs would have made a touchdown had It not been for the team going to pieces and becoming dis heartened on losing the ball on a questionable decision on the twentj-three-yard line Nebraska City chose the east goal and Council Illuffs kicked oft. In the klckoff n gain was made toward the Nebraska City goal , but Nebraska City made no perceptible gain , because the man who caught the ball lost It Immediately on downs. Rach club had possession of the ball several times In rapid succession , but no appreciable ground was gained by cither. Council Illuffs made HO mi' gains by bucking center and by end plays of Hcsi , Stuart and Uffelman , but fmnblcJ the ball when within a short distance of the goal and lost It. Nebraska City attempted to go around Council nluffs' left end , but Morehous > o made a very pretty tackle and Nebraska City lost pome ground Nebraska City punted , I'vcrcst caught the ball , dodged several men and made thirty yards. Then Lloyd of Ne braska Clly got the lull , went through the line , u.is downed , but crawled for two yards with two men on his back.

Hess made an end run , gaining fifteen yards , but ran out of lines Rider broke through Council Illuffs' tackle and blocked Everest's attempted punt. Nebraska City bucked the line and made a small gain , then Morehou'o tackled and dragged both man and ball back fully three yards Nebraska City tried to punt and failed , but kept the ball. The first half ended without cither side scoring. In the second half Nebraska City kicked off. Everest caught the ball and made a good run , gaining twenty yards. Stuart made twenty yards through the center with good In terference. Council Blurts lost the ball at the center of the field. Hess broke through and tackled the Nebraska City back behind the line for a loss. Price cot the ball for Otoe county on a llukc , and then was pushed through for a touchdown , near touch-tn-goal. A dufllctilt goal was missed Score : 4 to 0. No further scores were made. Uurton kicked ufT , Nebraska City falling to gain on catching the punt. The remainder of the half was taken up In argument between the teams , or parts of the teams , and considerable dissatis faction was expressed at the work of the ref eree. A Nebraska City man was tackled , and about the same time Hess took the ball from him , ran twenty-five yards , was downed , hart the ball put In play , ambled behind the goal , tried to kick goal , and failed , and claimed four points. H was not allowed. Nebraska ' City was penalized fifteen yards for'off-side play , and the ball at the close of the half was near the center. In the second half the Ne braska City team kept the ball In Its hands ail the time , making the requisite five yards In three downs by steadily bucking. Several times It was a question of Inches , and the decisions of the referee as to what consti tuted five yards were vigorously excepted to. The lineup : C. 13. F. C. Positions. Nebraska City.

Yesterday morning at an early hour three men went Into Soenko Hoysen's saloon , at the corner of Sixth stteet and Sixteenth avenue , and called for the drinks. They were accommodated , but when they had duly put thr > liquor out of t'lght they de clined to pay for It. Bojsen tried to force them Into paying , and all three drew guns out of their hip pockets and leveled them at his head. None of the firearms exploited , but the rapidity with which Hoyscn tumbled backward out of sight Is said by eye wit nesses to have been very great. Nothing more was said about paying , and In the confusion the three made their escape. Later In the morning they were arrested and taken to the city jail , where they gave their names na Harry Wade , Van Wnde and Wal ter Meyeru , and their residence as 1G10 South Ninth street. On being searched , each one was found to have a revolver tucked away In Ills clothing. The slzo of the three men corresponded very well with the three men who tried to hold up a man Wednesday night at the cor ner of Sixth street and Willow avenue. As stated In The Bee yesterday morning , the man who ran away and thus escaped being held up , refused to give up his name to the place. Hut yesterday , when asked about It , Henry Paschal , Jr. , admitted blimhlngly that ho was the man. When ho heard that the thrco suspects were In custody he paid a visit to the city jail and looked nt them. Ho was unable to say anything positively , further than that there was no reason why they could not be the men. He then took a look at the revolvers , but remarked that he did not believe they were the right ones , as he was sure the ono he looked at Wednes day night was at least threu feet In length ami six inches In width at the muzzle. The same men who tackled Paschal tried to stop Joe Hoyne as he was riding down Sixth street , near Willow avenue on his bi cycle , but he put on an extra spurt and left them behind , The three men who are under arrest are said to have tried the fume game with Mrs. John Peterfcon , whoso husband keeps a oa- loon on Seventeenth avenue and Ninth street , as on Iloysen. She furnished them with the drinks , hut when she asked for the pay they drew their revolvers and retired. Y > H.

( Special ) - Never was the city of Cherokee In such t fever of excitement as at present , and novel was there a more mysterious case so sud denly flashed upon a community than the one In question. In this city lives a qulcl and highly respected gentleman , wliotM prcs > eneo for thirty long years has been a pleas ure to his friends and associates , and whc has always been known as one ot the mosl modest and moral men In the Country. The Individual referred to Is Henty lloddls , sec retary of the Citizens' Life association and t man of much business ability. The cause of the sensation Is an article that appeared In the Milwaukee Sentinel Sunday , November 24 , a brief sketch of whlcli was sent to the Associated press and ap peared In a great many of the large publi cations throughout the country on the same dote. The writer accuse ? Henry W Roddlt of deserting his wife and two children a ! Milwaukee In 1SC5 and eloping with a charmIng - Ing widow by the name of Mllllngton , whose husband bad died In the army , and states positively that the Cherokee man Is the mlss'ns K odd Is. lloddls Is a well preserved man ot B2 year * of age and the father of nine children , mosl ot whom are grown. The family In a model one and highly respected from the youngesl to the oldest , and it will take more than t mere nccusitlon to convince the- public thai the head of such a family was ever guilty ol the offense charged against him. The arti cle states further that when he- left Milwau kee he carried $50,000 , more or lera , of n wealthy uncle's money with him , who was In the pork packing business at the time In the City of Breweries , and who had trusted the money with his nephew to be used by him to purchase stock for his uncle's busi ness. STORY OF THE FAMILY. These statements , together with a great many more minor ones , are flatly denied by members of the family. George E. Roddls , the eldest son , was seen by a reporter at his olllco In this city today , and he flatly denied everything , saying that It was the culmina tion of an unsuccessful attempt to blackmail his father. The lloddls side of the story runs about as follows1 About a year ago a grizzly-looking sort of an Individual , whose appearance would suggest that lis had spent most of his days In a brewery , called upon lloddls at his olllco In Cherokee , and as politely as po sible Informed him that hi ? was a lawyer and that he represented Mrs. llod dls No. 1 of Milwaukee ; that she had dis covered his whereabout ? , after supposing him dead for * 'ears , and was going to wage war ; that he had come as a peacemaker and Intimated that about $20,000 would Ignlto the pipe of peace and all would bo well , and In case a settlement was reached the alTalr would be kept a secret. Supposing that the man was crazy Roddls Kept at a safe distance , lest he might fall a victim to the maniac , and when the oppor tunity presented he excused himself under the pretext that his otllce work was crowd ing him. He called upon Roddls the next day and Informed him that through sym pathy he had concluded to reduce the demand to $10,000 and would grant him thirty-six hours grace In which to raise the amount , but before leaving the office , after on urgent iccjuest made by Mr. Roddls for him to dose so , he was willing to accept $5,000 and say no more about It , and that If the money was not forthcoming he would publish him to the world. ALL DRMANDS REFUSED. The demand was refused and the Individ ual left the city. In a short tlme > Roddls received a. communication from Milwaukee from whlcli an inference coulJ be taken that any money consideration would be ac ceptable , amount notwithstanding , KoJclls now thought that he was being made the victim of an attempted blackmailing scheme and pild no attention whatever to "any ol the accusations or communlc.i'tlons , the au thor of which has made use of the public pres as threatened. The Milwaukee lawyer declares that Rod dls Is dodging about the country to avoid arrest and that a sleuth Is now 011 his trail. This ( tatem'nt , as all others , Is erroneous , for his whereabouts are known to both the odlcers and a good many citizens , and II there Is anybody looking for Rcddls and cannot find him , he can gain all the required Information he may want by calling on or addressing George B. Roddls , Cherokee. Roddls Is out of town on legal business mil will bo back In the near future. He Is tiylr.g to dodge nobody and his movements .ire no secret.

( Special. ) It in now believed that the man found dead In a cornfield near Scranton a month ago was not murdered , as supposed , but died nnd was left there by his wife. About four weeks prior to the discovery two women passed through here in a covered wagon and said the husband of one of them was lying in the wagon , very sick. At Scrantoa they told the same story , and It was learned that the man had been kicked In the head by a liorso and his ukull crushed so badly he could survive but , a few hours. The women were utterly destitute. That was the last seen of them. They drove out of town on a road that led by the field , where the body was afterward found , The skull was crushed as If kicked , but nothing of an Identifying nature could he found on or about It , Until today It was believed the man had been murdered ; now It Is thought the man died shortly after leaving ScTiiu- ton , and having neither money nor friends , the women drove Into the cornfleld and deposited the body on the ground , lima KiliiratorH ( n Ali'i't.

C'nrror of n Yiinnir Mnrilorpr. DES MOJNES , Nov. 28. ( Special. ) An ap plication has been filed with Governor Jack son for n pardon for John W. Etktns , one of the prisoners In an I'wa penitentiary charged with murder In the first degree. Elklns Is one of the most famous criminals In the state. Six years ago , when he was a boy of 11 ycari , living on a farm In Clay ton county with his parents , committed dp brutal and cold blooded murder of both his father and mother , < Io hod desired to go to a. dance ono night , and was forbidden and sent to bed. After his father and mother had retired he came downstairs , got a shot gun and axe , and went to the sleeping room of his parents. Ho loaded the gun and poured Its contents Into his father's head ; then ho split his mother's head opsn with the nxc. After the crime , ho took his In fant brother with him to the barn , saddled a horse , and with the child In front of him redo tcftlie next neighbor , to whom ho told of t'ne murder of his parents by two men , and of his escape. The story was believed. The Investigation of the cate , however , developed no evidence as to the Identity of the mur derers. The boy was examine * ! closely to get at facts concerning thft murderers , nnd his stories failed to agree on different oc casions. The county attorney had him ar rested , and ho at last confessed , He was sent up for life , anj in the penitentiary has been a terror to everybody. He Is a thor ough criminal ; his face tells the story of murder and malice toward all he comes In contact with. The men In the prison are afraid of their lives when 'he Is around , for ho has threatened to murder one or two ot them , and nobody doubts he would do It If he had a chance. The pardon asked for him Is on tlhu ground that he was so ex tremely young when convicted , nnd that he has served six years , which should be ample punishment. To lU'lornto flip Soldier * ' Momnm-nt. DES MOINES , Nov. 28. ( Special. ) There Is wrlous talk ot an effort to have the Iowa Soldiers' monument moved to a new site. The monument Is hardly completed jet , but the commission In charge of the work Is so disgusted with the ? site ? that It will try to Induce the legislature to secure a new loca tion and move the structure before finishing It. Thera hove ben endless griefs connected with the construction of the monument. The commission disliked the site , and for four years would not commence work , hoping for a change. But the change wasn't made , and the legislature finally demanded that the work be > pushed. It was done. Now the shaft Is completed and Is very handsome ; the art works to adorn It are being made , and everybody who has seen the monument wants It moved. The commission Is especially urgent and will undoubtedly place the mat- t'r In some definite form. The location of tUo woik Is Just south of the capltol , where It could not be seen unless Special pains were taken. The pUcs will have- cost about $110,000 when It Is done , and It has been stated by the contractors that they could take It down and put It up again in a new place for $25,000. A strong effort will be made to get legislature to give the sum. l.avr Miiki > rM Will CIIUCMIM. DES MOINES Nov. 28. ( Special ) It Is possible that a conference- some of the leading members of the new legislature will b ? held hero before the opening of 'the session of the body to consider the plan for carrying on Its work. The plan will proba bly be to ask all members who can do MD to attend the meeting. It is hiipposod a fair representation of the body would bo brought together. There Is no Information as to the views of the members from which It l pos sible even to conjecture what they will de sire to do with the Important matters be fore them. It Is certain a spjclal session must be held , either Immediately after the regular on ? or the following w Inter. Some of the state officers bell.ve that In four months of hard work , without any pvrotech- nlct' , the whole task of the assembly could bs disposed of , Including the adoption of the revised code. There Is thought to be little cl-ance of this , however , and five months , or oven six , is accepted as the more likely time to be consumed. Court CoiiiliicliMl ii .Saloon. DES MOINES , Nov. 28.
