Isabella Draws Well.
The Council Bluffs Dramatic club scored
another unqualified success at the New
theater last night, when It presented the
comedy "Isabella" for the benefit of the
Associated Charities. The play was wit
nessed by an audience which packed the
bouse to the doors and in consequence the
Associated Charities will reap a nice sum
from the entertainment. The work of the
club last night was equal to many of the
professional companies' which have ap
peared' here. Mention ft the play cannot
te made without calling attention to the
excellent work of George F. Hughes, In
the leading role. Mr. Hughes has long
been recognised aa the leading amateur
actor of Council Bluffs and bis work last
night fully sustained this reputation. Of
bis support nothing but worda of praise
can be said and this la particularly true
of Miss Gertrude Davenport and Mrs. Edyth
Wallace. P. J. McBrlde, who made his
debut on- the' local stage, made one of the
hits of th evening and his Impersonation
of "The Shepherd" places him in the front
rank. '
lhe play waa produced under the direc
tion of Miss Lillian Fitch of Omaha, who
Assumed one of the characters, and, need
inss to say, waa one of the bits of the
piece. The play was elegantly costumed
and mounted and was generally considered
to be the greatest success ever achieved by
the club.

Peter Smith, proprietor of the bakery on
Fifth avenue, hat filed a voluntary peti
tion In bankruptcy. His liabilities amount !
to about $5,600, while bis assets, not
claimed as exempt, aggregate about $1,100.
Many outstanding accounts which he waa
unable to collect and the distance of bis i
bakery from the business center of the
city are the reasons given by Mr. Smith
for his failure.
Mrs. Laura H. Riddle of this city also
bas died a similar petition. Her liabilities,
amounting to about $3,000, consist mainly
of Judgments In the Colorado courts. Her
assets, consisting of clothing valued at

Tr-e controversy over the title to Big

form. J. P. Oreenshlclds, who claims to
own a portion of the land abutting on the
lake by virtue of a mortgage from John W.

R C. Howell and the Chicago ft Nortn

agnlnst the Illinois Central railroad, as
Its right of way passes through a portion
of the lake. The Illinois Central secured

the lake. Its right to maintain this trestle
Is now attacked by the suits of Wright.

Wright A Mayne establishing their clalrc
to the center of the lake, the Illinois Cen

of way. The same question of title is in
volved In the suit begun by Greenshields.
The city of Council Bluffs yesterday filed
Its answer to the suit commenced by Wright
ft Mayne. in which it claims an absolute
ownership of the lake and accreting land.

GOING AFTER SUPERVISORS
Members from This County Believe
Convention Fan Re Secured for
Council Bluffs.
The' members of the County Board of
Supervisors have decided to make a con
certed effort - to secure the next annual
msetlng of the State Association of County
Supervisors for Council Bluffs. With- this
object In view several members of tbe local
board will attend tbe convention to be beld
In Davenport on January 27, 28 and 29.
Although tbe association has been In ex
istence several years. It has never held one
of Its annual meetings in tbe western part
of the state and the members from Potta
wattamie county are determined to make
a strong fight for next year's convention
In this city. -
: Supervisor Brandea is on the program
for an address on the question of bridges,
and he will be assisted In his effort to
secure the convention for Council Bluffs
by Colonel Baker and probably two other
members of the board. It Is tbe opinion of
lhe supei visors of this county that the
convention for 1904 can be secured If the
proper showing is made.
. The conventions of the association are
Usually attended by from between ISO and
200 county supervisors and are regarded as
one of the moat' Important gatherings of
county officials In the year.
The members of the board spent yester
day in looking over the property recently
acquired for a county poor farm and will
not meet again until February 16, when
tbe matter of awarding Oe contract for
the publishing of tbe board's proceedings
to the three papers having the largest cir
culation In tbs county will b takea up.
At ibis adjourned meetlBg the board ex-
pects to receive the opinion of the rounty
altorney as to the Interest the county has
In Big and Carr lakes, which will deter
mine the action of the board In the con
troversy now pending over the title to the
first named lake between the park com
missioners of Council Bluffs and Wright
Mayne. If the county attorney glvea it
as his opinion that the county has no claim
In either lake the board, It Is expected,
will take no hand In the litigation.

'(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES. Jan. 16. (Special.) In the
district court today Jndge Given Issued an
order for the appearance In court Immedi
ately of William S. Richards and bla bonds
men to make an accounting of an estate of
which Richards has been administrator for
several years. This is the first definite ac
tion In court here to determine the where
abouts Of Richards, who Is alleged to be a
fugitive from Justice after having served
many years as a deputy United States mar
shal. He has been administrator of an es
tate and as soon as It was' known that be
had been accused of complicity in the rob
bery of Sullivan at Hamilton, In Marlon
county, his accounts In the estate were ex
amined Into and It waa found that he ap
peared to be short several thousand dol
lars. He was bonded by a fidelity company
here. Richards has not been publicly
heard from since the robbery. His son
has stated that he Is engaged In detective
work on the Carnes case from Monona
county. The United States marshal here,
with whom Richards had worked for many
years, Las received the keys which were
in the possession of Richards and papers
which he had neglected to return, sent him
in a package from Creston without any
thing to Indicate who they were from. It
is therefore regarded as certain that Rich
ards Is hiding In Iowa at some point where
his family and friends can reach him. It
Is also unquestionably true that officials
of the court here know of his biding place
and have so stated. , Attention was called
to the fact that Richards has not reported
as administrator of an estate here and the
court issued a warrant for him. It Is be
lieved this will have the effect of getting
track of him. There Is much mystery In legislation can be enacted, and if this can
connection with the affair and while Rich- j not be secured then a requirement of stamp-
ards has always borne a good name there Is
but little doubt now that hi fears to face
his accusers.

Found Fortune Awaiting.
On March 22 last Mies Amanda Morey,
who had been a teacher in the schooli
of the East Side for. many years, died at
the Methodist hospltsl in this city after a
brief Illness. The deceased left an estate
consisting of a farm of 160 acres In Ne
braska, twenty-five head of cattle and the
usual farming utensils. The only heir was
Mrs. Alice Moore Burton. J. W. Hill was
appointed administrator of the estate soon
after the death of Miss Morey. He learned
of the existence of Mrs. Burton, but was
unable to locate her. She had left Des
Moines many years ago and gone west.
Correspondence between herself and Miss
Morey ceased eight or ten years ago and
when the latter died she did not know
where Mrs. Burton resided. Testerday
Detective McNutt, who had learned by
chance of the fact that Administrator Hill
had been unable to discover the mist. Ing
heir, received a letter from her. She made
Inquiries regarding Miss Morey, evidently
not having learned of her death last
spring. The detective gave the letter to
Mr. Hill this sfternoon and be will place
hlmielt in communication with her at once.
The estate Is valued at $12,000.
Mystery on a Farm.
There is a mystery In Clay county that is
not only exciting the Immediate neighbor
hood In which It occurred.. hyt is being
given the close att.-ntion of the officers. A
young man by the name of Perry has oc
cupied one of the farms of his father.
With him resided another young man and
they farmed It together and were their
own housekeepers. They were reliable,
steady young men and were doing well.
One day thlr neighbors were attracted to
the farm by the bellowing of the cattle
and after search was made to ascertain
the trouble neither Perry nor the other
young man could be found on tbe prem
ises. The stock were neatly famished for
want of food and water. One horse and
one mule were found dead. The neighbors
are at a loss to explain this strange con
dition. Perry, In his right mind, would
never have left his stock as these were
left and there is not a trace about tbe
bouse or anywhere about the premises
that would even suggest a solution. De
velopments are awaited with keen Interest.
