Criminal buslnesa wont alone; with a
rush In Judge Woodruffs court yesterday.
Three ca?es were 11iop(J of and two
FPfitencs lnijw-1. I'lmia of guillty were
entered In two ranes and a Jury hoard th
evMcnce and tendered a v Willi t in the
other.
William Kolf, who wns lnrtlrtM on two
rmmtn fo:- tho tlieft of a valuable lot of
dreads and woman H apparel belonging to
tli daughter of Carl ilrrr, a Avenue II.
last April, pleaded guillty. One count
charged Mm with breaking and entering
U.ii'l the otlir with larceny, and by an
i.treement with the county attorney he
'j. leaded guilty to the larc.iy charge upon
tlie condition that the other wiu dismissed.
Ills plea, was accepted by toe court and
ho was sentenced to an Indeterminate
iwrlod of five years In the p"nltentlory at
J'oit Mudinon. Rolf's age brought him
within tho leiiiencj of Uio law that per
mitted him to be sent to the state r.
foimutory at AnamoHu. but he objoeted to
going there, and when asked for his rea
ona for choosing the harsher punishment
replied that he had been at Fort Mndlson
before and wonted to go back where he
was acquainted. It was an unfortunate
declaration under the circumstances and
Judge Woodruff was obliged to take
cognizance of It. While no evidence was
submitted It was learned that Kolf had
completed a three-year term there last
October.
"If yoj have served one term In prison
I have no power to eentence you to the
reformatory, although your age, 20 years,
would entitle you to be aent to Anamosa.
The law contemplates a severer punish
ment for a second offense, and I will send
you to Fort Madison to sorve five yeara
If not paroled aooner," sa d Judge Wood
ruff. Stole Bride's Trennas.
Rolf's offense was an aggravated one.
lie became engaged to marry an estimable
young woman In Council .bluffs, and on
the night before the wedding committed
the burglary at the Herr residence, stealing
about 1100 worth of fine dresses belonging
to Miss Herr, which he presented to his
bride as a wedding trousseau. The mar
riage was solemnised and the two left
town the same evening on their wedding
trip. Borne of the wedding guests closely
observed the bride's clothes and to others
she displayed with great pride the pretty
Tlfts of her husband. Tbe trousseau was
described minutely and In course of time
reached Mlas Herr. She believed she
recognised her clothes and told the police
detectives so. Rolf was located at Loup
City, Neb., and the sheriff there wired to
arrest him. The arrest was made, but
Rolf succeeded In making his escape be
fore a Council Bluffs officer could get
there. He was captured, however, within
, a day or two after he broke jail. His
jroung wife repudiated him after she
learned the truth and has since secured a
Civoroe, resuming her maiden name.
The eeoond to plead guilty wu . Albert
Engel, the old man who robbed B. M.
Broochus of a pocketbook containing a $30
draft, Masonlo emblems and a member
ship traveling card In the Brotherhood of
Locomotive Engineers. He forged the
name of Brocchus to the draft and went
to Marshall, Mich., where he attempted to
Impersonate Brocchus as a Mason and got
sixty days In JaiL He pleaded guilty to
grand laceny and was sentenced to an
Indeterminate period of five years In the
Fort Madison prison,
Acquitted of Mayhem.
John W. Wilson, alias Frank Wllaon,
was acquitted by a Jury In five minute
of the charge of mayhem. Wilson was In
dicted last year for malnlng T. O. An
drews, better known as "Dare-Devil" An
drews, the Lake Manawa balloon jumper.
In a fight at Manawa on July 6, 190. Wil
son seised Andrews and sank his teeth
Into his left thumb, biting it to the bone.
Blood pol?onlng set in and Andrews lost
the remainder of the summer's work and
the permanent use of his thumb. Two of
the chief witnesses for the state were
absent and only the statement of the plain
tiff was available to refute the testimony
of a lot of witnesses for Wilson. It wu
aald to be the second time that Wilson
has bitten his opponent in a fight. F. a.
Krlcks, ICS Seventh avenue, was ready to
testify to a similar Injury that Induced
blood poisoning, but the, state could not
use him.
Judge Woodruff last evening excused the

The school board secured a quorum last
riitfht and held a lengthy and busy meet
ing, the first In six weeks, with two of
Its memliers. Reed and Capell. still ab
sent rampalKnlng for county offices.
A lare portion of the time was given to
the consideration of tuition for pupils
living outside of the city, and was pre
cipitated by the presentation of a bill from
the Omaha High school for 145 for tuition
by Mrs. Hamilton, who resides In East
Omaha, and whose daughter cannot attend
the Council Bluffs High school, except by
making a street car Journey consuming an
hour and a half each day. The communi
cation was In the nature of a demand for
Immcdlnte payment or the expulsion of
the pupil. The matter was referred to the
finance committee and that committee, rep
resented by only one member, Mr. Hend
ricks, Immediately referred it back to the
board.
While the Justice of the demand wns
appnrert, there was a reluctance on the
pjrt of the board to establish a precedent
of paying tuition, but some arrangement
may be made t' to continue the educa
tion of the yourg Url. who Is but 14 years
of age and a veiy promising pupil.
About a dozen other cases were acted
upon, all of pupils attending the city
schools, but whose parents reside else
where, fnme of them were Interesting.
One was the case of Charles Ford, 17 years
of agn, attending the high school. His
patents reside In Kansas, and he goea
there every summer and worka on the
homestead, but through the school period
he makes his home with his brother, an
employe of the Alfalmo Meal mills. He
makes his own way by getting up at I
o'clock every morning and driving a milk
wagon. He was given a clean bill with
hearty indorsement of his pluck. His sis
ter Leah, living with L. O. Claar, owner of
the Omaha St Council Bluffs Transfer Co.,
but declared by Mr. Claar not to be required
to work for her board, was required to
pay. Only two pupils were required to
pay. The other was Miss Mayn Mildred.
whose father owns a lfiO acre farm In
Garner township, but who is making her
home with Miss Charlotte Dryden, county
school superintendent.
The board fully approved the plan of Miss
Julia Officer and gave a series of cash
prizes for the best story of Thanksgiving
day and Its origin, and Instructed Superin
tendent Beveridge to co-operate with her
and Instruct all teachers to assist In
awakening the Interest of the pupils. The
prizes are to be awarded after Thanks,
giving.
Superintendent Beveridge was given 126
to defray the oxpense of installing tho ex
hibit of the schools at the corn show sec
tion of the National Horticultural congress.
Thujjuporlntendent was also authorized to
buy 1.000 copies of the song, "Iowa, the
Beautiful Land," for use In the schools.
Miss Grace Barr. supervisor of music,
who was requested to amend her certificate
by submitting to an examination by Prof.
Reesee of Omaha, submitted a report from
the Omaha musician highly commendatory
of her abilities to fulfill the duties of her
position.
The board directed the high sohool to
be clof ed for ne day, Friday, November
4, to permit the principal and teachers to
attend the Iowa State Teachers' associa
tion meeting at Les Moines, and decided
that those who did not attend the meeting
would be denied pay for the day, and all
who do attend will not be required to at
tend the Southwestern Iowa Teachers' con
vention, whloh meets In Red Oak next
spring. The grade teachers were exempted
from the Ies Moines attendance.
Member Schoedsack had October SS set
apart as flower day, when the pupils In
all of the schools will assist In planting
the bulbs that will produce tho first crop
of spring blossoms, and the Janitors were
instructed to have the beds prepared for
that day.

PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS
Dr. W. R. Hobha la reported very 111
of blood poisoning at the home of his
brother, Dr. A. T. Hobba of Guelph, Can.
Deaplte the very ' plain and lucid state
ments that heee been made In tht news
papers that the Young Women's Christian
association had been deferred for a short
time the Impression prevails that the move
ment has been wholly abandoned. Thla has
caused a good deal of annoyance and sum 3
anxiety on the pvt of the "ro!c "omnn
who have been working so long and ear
neatly to carry forward the work. The
movement has nbt been abandoned by any
means or the efforts of the women aha'ed
in the least. It was deemed liiadv.aahle to
organise at the tlBie elated on account of
possible interference with the enlarutni;
work of the young men'a association. The
women will organize within a short time,
but will begin the work In a very a mple
way.
On next Monday afternoon at 3 30 o'clock
the regular monthly mevtlng of the nascent
association will be held, and every woman
Interested in the work In any degree Is
urged to be present. At thla meeting It :a
expected that arrangementa for taking over
the bulld.ng decided upon for the first
headquarters will be completed.
