Emil Elossner Succeeds in Marrying the
Girl of His Choice.
DARES TO INCUR THE WRATH OF PARENTS
Georcla Trobee Led to ttic Altar
AVliilr Mriabrr * of II r Family
Are FlKurliie : Out n Plan
to Prevent llic I'uKiii. '
The Klossner family has acquired nnotlicr
'load of trouble. This time u wedding has
ruptured Its serenity and tbe fact that Emll
Klossncr has dared to marry the girl of his
choice without the aid or consent of any
olhrr Klossner on earth has filled hlK rela
tives with wrath and made the corridors of
ttie court house resound with their tribula
tions. County Judge Baxter , who performed
the ceremony , Harry Nott. who was so un
fortunate us to be the person who issued
the license , and all attaches of the court
house who have anything to do with the
marriage records have been individually nnd
collectively blamed by the enraged members
of the family , who insist that tlielr ancestral
escutchon tiiio been permanently dififlgured
becuuRe the youngest son married pretty
Georgia Trobee against the united remou-
strancos of the remainder of the family.
Georgia secured the license , made all ar
rangements to have the I'eremonv performed
and married hcr < man before his relatives
heard the first tinkling of the wedding bells.
Late Saturday afternoon a young mun
visited Judge Baxter's office and asked for
a license for the marriage of young Klossuer
and Miss Trobee. He was assured that one
of the contracting parties must apply for
the document In person and aoon after Mine
Trobee appeared and blushlngly made the
necessary showing and paid J2 for the
Jlcciibe. She ald that she was IS years old
and that her prospective husband was 1
.and the licence was consequently Issued.
Then she fidgeted around for u few minutes
' nnd finally asked for an audience with the
judge. To him she declared that neither
hho nnr her sweetheart knew of any clergy
man to perform the ceremony nnd in order
to 'be ' accommodating the court agreed to
come down Sunday at noon and officiate in
person. This program was carried out and
the young woman left the court house the
.next day an Mrs. Georgia Klossner.

relatives heard that he was a married man.
Then there was trouble In the court bouse.
John Klossner , his wife , a grown daughter
and another son moved on the county court
In solid formation and declared their in
tentions of Instituting proceedings unless
the objectionable ceremony was canceled.
None of the visitors could talk good English ,
but they supplied In volume what they
lacked In lucidity nnd for two hours the
occupants of the corridors were entertained
by as lively a verbal encounter as has been
on the boards since marriage licenses were ,
Instituted. They declared that Emll IB only ,
17 years old and that he had been led Into i
a marriage by a designing young woman , of
whom they could scarcely say anything bad
enough. They insisted ihat the marriage
must be annulled at once , but they struck a
snag in the proposition that such an action
could not be Instituted except by one of the
contracting parties. Then they hunted up
Emll , but he insisted that he knew what !
he wanted nnd that he was entirely satisfied j
with his bride. There the matter stands )
and Cupid promises to have his way in , '
epite of their opposition. |
The affair Involves another peculiar complication - i
plication in that a common cause against |
the bride has brought together members of
a family who hove not spoken to each other
for four years. About four years ago the
same families were In court on the allega
tion that John Klossner had been grossly
abusive and that his children could not re
main In the same house with him. As a re
sult Julia KlTOBner was taken away from
him , nnd since then she has lived with a !
widow in another part of the city. She is |
now a young woman , and she was the first r
. to learn of her brother's marriage. She was ;
so much Incensed that she forgot her own >
grievance and hurried at once to her parents '
to Impart the Intelligence. John Klossner j
is an expressman , who lives at 1002 South '
Fourth street , and Emll Klossner is em
ployed by a local oil and paint company.
As the family of the groom refuses to for
give the young couple are living with the
family of a friend at Second and Bancroft
Btreels.

toe a cane which would excite the sympathy
of the most hardened. Mrs. Badenhop had
some trouble with her husband some time

with some sharp instrument. The blow left

repulsive appearance. Since then ehe and

DRIVEN OFF BY SQUATTERS
Clin * Hedlclt and Fred Wej-muller Ile-
eelve a Severe HeatliiK Make a
Ilun for Tlielr Live * .
A pitched battle fought Thursday after
noon along the river bank seventeen miles
eouth of tte city between two real estate
agents and a band of i'quatters ' resulted In
the complete rout of the agents and the
temporary triumph of the men who hold thi :
land by right of occupation.
The dealers In town lots and tract * who
Invaded the bailiwick of the squatters are
CtTa't Redlck and Pred Weymuller , the pur
pose of their errand being to look over the
locality preparatory to making a purchase.
Ttie names of the men who resented the visit
and drove the prospective buyers away with
axes and shotguns are not known , but It is
said warrant * will be issued for iheir arresl
al once on the charge of assault.
Redlck and Weymuller drove to the vicin
ity they wlehed to inspect Thursday after
noon. Hilchlng the horse to a fence , they
proceeded on foot in the direction of the
river and stopped nt the first hut to in
quire about the road. All the neighboring
land for miles around is held by squatters
who eke out an existence by farming , and
It happened that the dugout where the land
agents halted WOK the home of eight of
these men. who were armed nnd stationed
there to Intimidate trespassers on their
Imagined rights.
The squatters , apparently very hospitable ,
Invited the visitors to enter the yard and
then they closed and barred the gate. After
this their demeanor changed and In answer
to a question regarding the road to the
river , one of ithem antioun.rpd :
"You follows will never see the river ;
we'll plant you right here. "
The words wore accompanied by a blow
of an ax on Redlcl's ; arm , nnd this was the
signal for the speaker's companions to pum
mel the visitors. Ax handles and fists were
freely ued and the land agents , being out
numbered and convinced that discretion wax
the better part of valor , hastily hurdled the
fence and ran for the buggy , pursued by
tlielr assailants. Being fleeter of foot they
succeeded tn reaching the buggy and clam
bering Into it drove away at a gallop , leav
ing the squatters in undisputed possession
of the field.
Afc a result of the conflict Redlck has a
crippled arm and several severe bruises
about the face and body. Weymuller rp-
ct'lved the worst injuries nnd is now con
fined to his room. They say the next tlmt >
they call on squatters they will go armea
to the teeth.

It was a joyful meeting that took place
Thursday night nt the police station between -
tween Mrs. Pred La Jlouche nnd her 6-year-
old son , Clyde" , whom the father , now in
Jail , had kept hidden from her for eight
lonesome mouths.
Big policemen with feelings calloused from
contact with all sorts of crime and sorrow
felt little lumps rising in their throats and
resorted to whistling that they might not
appear tender-hearted. Mrs. La Rouche
clasped her boy in her arms and embraced
him for several minutes in silence. Then
she held the little fellow out at arm's
length and asked questions so rapidly that
he could not answer more than half.
In due time he told how his father had
hidden him in different houses since July
and how he had been moved from place to
place to be kept out of the reach of de
tectives ( since his father was locked up In
jail. "They didn't want you to have me ,
did they , mamma ? But you found me Just
the same. " was the little fellow's conclusion
to his story , "and 1 love you best. "
Mr. and Mrs. La Rouche were separated
In July and since that time the father has
lived with a Mrs. Wilson at 70 ! ) North Six
teenth streel. He look his child and
secreled him so lhal his mother could not
find him. Mrs. La Roucho returned to live
with her parents In South Omaha nt Twen
ty-seventh nnd L streels.
La Rouche has been Implicated In several
big robberies lhat have occurred recently ,
among ihem being the theft of 1.000 pounds
of flour from the Sarpy mills and numerous
wholesale chicken raids. He used to take j
his little son with him to hold the horses | '
while he and two companions robbed
chicken roosts and filled the wagon with the
stolen fowls.
La Rom-he was arresled a few daj-s ago
on suspicion of having stolen a set of har
ness In Council Bluffs and was turned over
to the authorities of that city , where he I
now In jail. , At the same time hli l > oy was
taken Into custody and detained here. HU
mother applied for his release , which was j
granted Thursday night. |

Carrington has been associated In the
work being done under the name "Hed Cross
league. " having an ofllce in the New York
Life building.
The Red Cross league issued printed no
tices from the head office In Chicago under
i date of April 7 stating that John C. Car-
j ! rington was no longer connected "with the
organization. This notice is said to have
i been the result of a visit of the secretary
of the league who discovered that Carring
ton had 'boon discharged after a few weeks'
work In Milwaukee. He was also informed
; ' by Mr. Karling , the local manager , that
Carrington had been guilty of a number of
indiscretions here. Mr. Karling himself
holds about $100 worth of checks which Car
rington gave to him to cover shortages in
league collections and on personal account.
Carrington enlisted last summer in Troop
G. Second volunteer cavalry , ut Port Rus
sell , Wyo. He accompanied the regiment to
Jacksonville , Fla. , where ho was discharged ,
| i as he claims , for disability. Ho returned to ,

Judge Dickinson hpent yesterday -with
a very knotty equity problem in conjunction
with the application of Mamie E. Sadler for
an injunction to restrain H. E. White from
engaging In an employment agency business
In this city. The petition stated that the
plaintiff had purchased the business operated
by White on an agreement that he wc.uld
not engage in the surae business elsewhere
in Omaha. It U-UK alleged abut be had violated -
latod this contract. The evidence indicated
that White was merely working for another
agency on a salary and thin brought up
the delicate question whether nuch employ
ment was a violation of the eontraot. The
authorities cited by the attorneys were very
conflicting and Judge Dickinson decided that
he would refuse to grunt the temporary in
junction and let the case come up on its
merits. He held thut this would not prejudice -
dice the interests of either party and that ,
when authorities were so conflicting , an
order should not be Unucd on affidavits un
less a refusal do do so would work Irrepar
able injury to one of the parties.

Judge Pawcott returned yesterday and
resumed the hearing of the TUeok divorce
case. The cross-examination of Ilieck occu
pied the forenoon , hut his evidence added
very little new matter to the record. The
plaintiff's attorney spent eome time in an
effort to Induce the witness to admit that he
bad once threatened to 1:111 : his wife before
they luft Germany , but this he strenuously
denied. He was also quentionnd closely tr
fchow that Mrs. Jllwk had helped in the hay
field and in the dairy In addition to her < lo-
raoBtlc employments , and this was admitted
by the wltneaii.

Cherry.'did not handle any of the money
that was paid in by the members as the
organization has a treasurer for that pur
pose. He and his wife had 'become ac
quainted -with Mr. and Mrs. Rieck at the
rooms nnd subsequently they had enter
tained each other at dinner. The witness
told the story of the trip to Boston taken
by Rleck with Mrs. Cherry and himself sub
stantially as it was set forth In Mrs. Cherry's
answer in the divorce null. He asserted that
they had met Rleck in Chicago and that
they had made the rest of the trip together
merely as a matter of social convenience.
He vigorously denied that either Mrs.
Cherry or himself had ever entertained any
intentions In regard to the Rleck property.
Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Cochran , neighbors
of the Rieck family , testified that they had
never heard , any Indications of quarreling
during their residence in an adjoining
delling. .
Minor Mm tern In Court.
Viiinlb Albert has applied for u divorce
from Hans Albert , the well known violinist ,
on the ground of habitual drunkenness. Mr.
ami Mrs. Albert were married in Council
Bluffs in 1895.
W. K. Potter , as receiver of the Nebraska
Savings and Exchange bank , has sued W.
M. Long and W. H. Gules for $300 , alleged
to ho due on a note which was given to the
baiik several years ago.
Juhu Mnus has begun an action in district
court to prevent his BOH , Fred Maus , from
Including in his assets , now In controversy
In bankruptcy proceedings , five acres of laud
in Hammond's addition. The older Maun
asserts that he gave this land to his son on
the agreement that the latter would support
him during the remainder of bin life. He
now contends that if the property IB turned
over to the creditors he will bo left without
means of subsistence and that this would
infringe on the contract under which lie
transferred It to his son.
Judge Fawcett returned from his eastern
trip and resumed the hearing of the Rleck
dlvorce case. The cross-examination of
Rlock occupied the forenoon , but his
evidence added very little new matter to the
record. The plaintiff's attorney spent tome
time in an effort to Induce the witness to
admit that he.had once threatened to 1:111 : his
wife before they left Germany , but this he
strenuously denied. He was also questioned
clotcl ; to show that Mrs. Rleck had helped
in the hay field and in the dairy in addition
to her domestic employments , and this was
admitted by the witness.

I. A. Port of North 1'Iatte is a vls.ior at
Union Pacific headquarters. He says nil the
civil engineers in bib section of the state
have been employed by the Union Pai'lfio
and t > et to work to run lines for the pro
posed road up the Platte valley. He nays
there Is more railroad excitement at North
Platte and in the western portion of tha
state than has existed In years post. It < a
generally believed by people out there that
the Union Pacific will build a branch from
North Platte northwest 'through the \ailey
of that river and into Wyoming , alii.oagh .
Ihey do not know when the worli v. l be
commenced.
Mr. Fort says the Nebraska fanners are
gradually turning their attention to < tje
raising. They secure irom 040 to 3 000
acres of land , either by purchase or lease ,
and put on from fifty to i'OO head of caale.
The cost of engaging In this business ho
estlrnales to he from 50 to BO per cent less
than it was a number of yean , upo Ha
cites the one item of barb wire , whi'-h a
few years ago cost 14 cents per pound and
can now ibc had for li'/i cents. Other things
he says are In proportion , which furnishes
one of the reasons why so many morr of
the farmers are embarking in tnat business.
As another result of reduced cost and Im
proved machinery , Mr. Port says some ot
the farmers are engaging in the dairy busi
ness on a small scale. It IB now pohtubla
to secure a small eeparalor. churn am.
engine , enabling u farmer with u few good
cows lo have his own creamery. He men-
Honed the uiHe of one man In Ltncolii cuuiity
who had made a success during the last
your in this business. Instead of carrying
his cream to market ho now makes first-
class creamery .h.utter and hub ihc benefit
of the refuse materials from tin inilK for
the use of his own stock.
