brings the Intelligence that the efforts have
been successful. The telegram is signed by
C. S. Potter. Mose O'Brien and E. A. Brandt
and states that the convention will be
held In Omaha in 1S9S and that George E.
Cronk of the Omaha lodge has been elected

' Tbe grand lodge of Elks is one of the
\nost desirable conventions that has been
} mentioned In connection with Omaha and

000 delegates to Omaha , exclusive of the

IIHAD OF TUB FAMILY DISAPPEARS. ,
Widow Who Lived lu the XelKhbor-
liooil 1 * Al o Ml nlnir.
The people la the vicinity of Twenty-first
and Cumlng streets , together with a few ad
ditional individuals , have found a choice bit
of scandal , prolific of gotslp. in the almost
simultaneous disappearance of John John
son , a saloon keeper at 2101 Cuming street ,
and Mrs. Mlna Clausen , who has been the
buxom proprietress of a restaurant two
doors west of John's place of business.
"I believe that they have eloped. " said a
friend of both yesterday morning , shaking
his head. "They have been very good friends
and I think that their departure at the tame
time Is more than a coincidence. "
Johnson has been the head of a family
which consists of a wife and five small chil
dren. He runs the saloon at Twenty-first
and Cumins streets and is reputed to own
the property without encumbrance. Mrs.
Clausen Is a widow , without children , and
ran the restaurant for some time past. Last
Friday she left. She employed-a woman to
take charge of the place and run it on the
money that came In. It Is said that she pur
chased a ticket to some point near Salt
Lake , although it was understood that she
was going to visit friends in Colorado.
"If I am not back In a week. " Mrs. Clausen
told the friend to whom she turned over the
establishment , "this place Is yours. " The
week has expired and Mrs. Clausen has not
returned.
Johnson left on the Fourth of July. Some
days prior thereto be sent bis family into
the country to spend the holiday on his
brother's farm. He was expected on the
Fourth to take part In the celebration , but
did not put in an appearance. On Wednes
day the brother came to the city to discover
the reason ot his absence and learned that
Johnson had not been seen since last .Satur
day. He reported the fact to the wife and
the latter came to the city Thursday.
One very significant- which leads to
the belief that Johnson eloped Is that when
his wife searched their joint wardrobe she
discovered that be bad taken all of his
clothing. Before that she believed that be
had gone away on some trip , but when
she found bU wardrobe gone she reached
the conclusion that be intended to stay a
long time. The family and friends , how
ever , are hoping almost against hop * that
he will come back and intend to put in the
next few days in an investigation.
Johnbon left some 175 behind him , al
though it Is said that he overdrew his bank
account. His wife , however , is in pouezsioo
of the saloon and property upon which It is
located. She also has a ( arm near 'he
city.
FIGVIUXO O.V A CITY JAIL.
Cltr Council Will Con.lder the
rrtii'okltlou Today.
One of the matters that is scheduled for
consideration at the special meeting ot the
city council this forenoon is the Ques
tion of a city Jail. There are several propo-
sitloci before the council and these vere
referred back by a committee , without rec-
ommeedatton. The one which seems to find
the most favor with the members is that
submitted by Irving Allison , whose previous
ItropottUoa was rejected. He offers to erect
a two-story brick building at the northeast
corner ot Sixteenth and Leavenwortb streets.
It will be sixty-six feet square. The plans
include a basement. The city Is asked to
furnlth the iron and ste I ( or the ceili and
pay a rental ot ia4 p r month.

The German Favirss bank closed its doors
yesterday morning and went into voluntary
liquidation. State Bank Examiner Cos-dory
was sent for and was put in possession by
the directors In accordance with the follow-
In ? resolution wMch was passed at a meet
ing of the directors Thursday evening :
"Whereas , "The long continued business
depression throughout the country has made
It difficult to j'eahze satisfactory profits
from savings bank business , and as we do
net find it suSclently remunerative as to
profits , we deem It unwise to continue the
business of this bank ; therefore , be It
"Resolved. By the Board of Directors of
the German Savings bank , that we now
voluntarily take the necessary steps to
% vlnd up the adairs of this bank as soon as
practicable. "
The officers of the bank stated yesterday
mornlns that every dollar of deposits would
be paid in ( all. The deposits amount 'to
K11.2G2.59. while the assets aggregate J469.-
959.25. The bank has a surplus of $25,000
and net undivided profits amounting to
J25.0M , besides unpaid capital stock amount-
Ins to J400.000. Some of the most substan
tial business men In the city are stock
holders In the bank and its management
has been regarded as very conservative. Its
assets are mostly In the form of first mort
gage liens on realty and are regarded tt
ample security. It was announced also thit
the directors would not ask for the appoint
ment of a receiver , but would cssume
charge of the affairs of the bank , under
suacient bond , and pay off all obligations
as fzst us possible.
County Treasurer Helmrod stated that
there was about tJS.OOO of county ( unds
on deposit In the German bank , but that be
had not the slightest tear that the county
weald lose a cent. "The county U secured
by a bond of J100.0W , " he said , "and it wfil
only Inconvenience us temporarily. "
City Treasurer Edwards said the city .had
no money on deposit in the German bank.
but the Police Relief association had
J3.222.27 In that Institution.

MASOX'S GAME WOt LD XOT WOIIK.
Failed to Turn n Trick on the Man
from llaffnlo.
J.V. . Mason , who also goes under the
name of J. C. Hlckman. was vary coarse in
his work when he tried ,10 flimflam
a stranger at the union depot ; and for that
icason he Is now occupying a cell at the
police station.
Upon one of the afternoon trains Thurs
day was a passenger , G. M. Douglas , whose
home is in Buffalo. X. V. Douglas alighted
from the train to study the architectural
beauties of the Mason street depot , and
while engaged in this occupation was ac
costed by Mason. Mason apparently sized
up his man as a sucker , for he attempted to
work the baggage racket upon Jilm. He had
reached the point when a ( riena'appeared on
the scene and excitedly remarked that be
must have fjD to get his baggage out of the
hands of the railroads. He bad a { 10.0)0
check in bis possefsion. Douglas was onto
the game and at this stage politely excused
himself , and returned in a few minutes with
Detective Fleming. Mason wcs trrestt-W , but
the other fellow got auay.
Douglcs was unable to remain In the city
and consequently Maon is booked as a sus
picious character. He is well known to the
police , having been arrested a number of
times.
