Thanksgiving day wa celebrated yesterday
In much the same way as has besn the custom
during former years. Chinch services were
held at the Grace Episcopal and the Congre
gational churches In the forenoon , Orace
and St. Paul's churches uniting at the former
place , and nil the other Protestant churches
at the latter. At flrace church the sermon

lUv. Conrad Hooker. At the close a col
lection was taken for the poor of the city ,
nnd a snug sum realized. It will be put Into
clrculatloa tit once , and many who were with
out any of the luxuries , and perhaps most
of the necessities , to maUu yi'bterday a day
of feasting and pleasure , will linil cause for
thcnkbglvlng , even If n little late.
The war with turkey , of course , occupied
the thoughts of most people during the middle
dleof the day , and by the time victory had
perched on the banners of tha people , they
were ready for some other ° ort of pastime.
In the evening a number of entertainments
\\ero given , all of which were well pitronl ed.
At Trinity Methodist church there was an
entertainment of a literary and musical
nature. Miss Maudellazcn't" class In physi

sisted In the miiE'lcal portion of the pro
gram by several comic folos ,
A pleasant entertainment was nlso gl\on
at the Christian tabernacle , nvery one who
ci'ino ' contributed something In the shape of

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. Al Illder , tin-
Nebraska City left c-nd , went around the left
end for twenty-five > nrds , but was tackled
successfully by i\crest and downed. Jones of
Council muffs getting the ball. 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.

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.

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.

JEFFERSON , la . Nov. 28. ( 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 ,

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.

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 today. Two months ago the wholesale
sale- and retail liquor firm of W. H. Parker
& Co. assigned and the court named a re
ceiver for the business. No authority was
given to continue the business , but the re
ceiver did so. Today some of the creditors
appeared In court to complain , and It was
fcund that the court had tuppossd the place
was clos'tl all the time. The- saloon Is on
a leading street and more frequented than
any other in the city , but the judge had not
known It was open. A peremptory order
was Isbued to close It at once.
