SCENES IN THE JAIL.
It has been Turned into a Lunatic
Asylum.
A Woman who has Gone Crazy
from Disappointed Love, and
a Han who has become
Insane on the subject
OF Religion.

There was a lively time in the
Jail all last night, a ceasele5s racket
having been kept up till daylight
by a couple of lunatics confined
therein. All the other inmates of
the Jail were kept awake, and the
institution seemed more like a
lunatic asylum than a place of tenn
poray confinement for SAM crimi-
mails and persons awaiting trial for
various ~offenses.
Mrs. Catharine Corners is the
name of one of the unfortunates,
and her story is a sad one indeed.
She is a widow woman, her hus-
band having died two years ago,
leaving her two children.
Sometime ago she was courted
and won by a young man, who
promised to marry her; but he broke
his word and was soon after welded
to another. This cruel treatment al
most broke her heart, and she began
brooding ove the disappointment
till at last her mind began to wan
der, and she became entirely crazy.
Last week she commenced to abuse
and starve her children, and when
ii became known to the neighbors,
they had her arrested and taken to
Jail, where she has since been kept.
She was formerly a stout, good
looking, young woman, not yet 80
years old, but she has now grown
to a mere skeleton; her cheeks
have sunk, and her eyes have the
peculiar expression of madness.
Last night in her cell, she upset
everything, tore her clothes all off
from her, and raved in the most
boisterous manner at times, alter
mating with the mostpiteous means.
She would then become silent; fix
her eyes on a certain point; and
stare uninterruptedly at it for an
hour or more. She presents q most
pitiable sight, as she is but the mere
shadow of former herself.
There is not room at the present
time for her in the Lunatic Asylum,
and she will have to be kept here
till accommodations can be pro-
vided for her.
The other unfortunate is William
Beal, a San Francisco liquor mer-
chant, who became crazy on a
Union Pacific train, and of whom
mention was made in the BEE a day
or two age. His mind has become
turned On the subject of religion.
He imagines the day is not far dis
tand when all will be called to ac-
count for their sins. He is constantly
talking on religion, and thinks he
has been called upon to spread the
gospel.
Il he should be released to-day he
would at once proceed to the
churches and 'declare himself"
He, too, raised a disturbance all
night long, and greatly aided toturn
the jail into a mad-house. He is a
find looking, and intelligent appear
ing man, and will probably be
taken charge of in a few days by
his San Francisco friends, who
have been telegIaphed and writ
ten to.

OMAHA, MAY OF, 81.
To the public and my patrons par
ticuIarIy; i would ask them to be
patient so that / may remedy an
evil that has existed for some time.
Every intelligent man who patron
ICES merchant tailors knows that we
have to pay such high prices for
labor that it drives trade out of
town, and owing to this cause
my pay roll weekly averages
1925, when 1t should amount to
$500, other employers ply proper
tionably large, and all this money
spent i'm town. Now / ask every
intelligent mechanic and business
man has he not TO pay more i'm pro-
portion for clothing than anything
else? To remedy the difficulty I
have discharged all the men in my
employment who have come twice
this week " en- masse" to me, and
dictated not only the prices, /
will be obliged to pay them, but
also what particular garment certain
employees shall work on. | wish to
state to my customers ] will be

The ceremonies concluded by the

RETURNED TO HIS OLD LOVE.
A German Granger In Search of
Wife. Seeks his Old Sweet
heart, now q Widow. and
is Colby Refused q
Second Time.
a Hearth BENDING Tale.

Saturday evening, in front of the
Variety Bazaar, quite a large crowd
gathered around an honest German
farmer, living near West Point, to
listen to a tale ,,of woe that he
was relating i'm his native tongue,
and which was translated by one of
the Germans present. 1t appears
that a young woman had
promised to marry him about three
years ago, but had gone square back
on him, and married another man,
who was better heeled financially
than he. After living together for
some time, the couple quarreled and
separated, and the girl came to
Omaha and worked out as a servant.
In the meantime affairs had
prospered with the disappointed
Teuton, who had improved his I6O
acres of Homestead, built a house and
stable, acquired plenty of pigs and
chickens, and a good OK team. All
that he wanted now to make his life
happy was a wife, and his mind
lightly turned to thoughts of love.
He remembered his old sweetheart,
and learning that she was i'm Oma-
ha he came here to interview her,
and, if possible, induce her to re-
turn with him as his wife. He had
a good OK team, he said, to convey
her in good style from the ears to
his homestead. He was now anx-
ious to find out the house.where she
was employed. While relating this
simple story, the tears rolled
down on his cheeks, and
he concluded with saving
that he thought she would surely
consent to become the partner of
his wealth, his bosom, and his joys
and his sorrows, if he could only
see her. He had in his hand let
ter, directing him to the house
where she was stopping, and after
being informed the way to it, he
left, confident no doubt that his
hopes would be realized. But, alas!
they weren't. The girl, as we were
yesterday, informed, although
admitting him to her presence, de-
clined his tempting offers, prefer
ring to wash dishes and make up
beds rather than to become an hon
est fiourishing German granger's
wife on a homestead. The twice
disappointedman returned yesterday
to his plantation almost hearts
broken, NV coorse, and meditating
upon the uncertainties of love and
the unaccountable tastes and ideas
of womankind.
