Three Gard Monte.
A QUARTETTE OF THE OPERATORS AR
RESTED

Four three card monte men, who gave
their names as John Kingston, Jerry
Brown, George Wilson and 7. J. Hollings.
he'd, came to grief Wednesday evening,
upon the arrival of the western passenger
train, Conductor LOBBY, at this station.
1t appears that the swindlers boarded tn c
train at Ackley, but did not find oppor-
tunity for the exercise of their peculiar
talents until just before the train reached
our city, when they inveigled poor Ger
man going east with his wife and two
children, into going his pile, So, on the
turn OF the cards, with tn Inevitable re-
suit. The German, finding himself pluck
ed, set up howl of anguish. and upon
apneal 10 the conductor, the villains were
compelled TO disgorge, but not before
they had contemplated the design of jump
ing from the train TO escape. They con-
cludel that the speed was too great for
the success of this experiment
Previously Special Detective Cutter, of
Waterloo, who was on the train, and who
hat. spotted The monte men at that station,
had telegraphed our officers TO be on hand,
and when ii arrived Deputy Sheriff Pat
tcrson was at the depot waiting to extend
to the rascals the hospitality of Castle
Farr. Having an inkliEg of what was
preparing for them, no sooner had the
train stopped than they left it in u body
and climbed up the sides of the freight
going west, inst as it moved out, hoping
thus to elude the officers. But this would
not work; the freight backed up to the
depot, and officer Patterson took in charge
three of the card showers, supposing that
they comprised the gang. But after the
freight had left the station, he discovered
that there was a fourth man, so boarding
an engine at the depot he started in pursuit,
overtaking the freight train at the summit
just west of town, and secured the bird.
All four were then escorted to Jail.
The examination was set for yesterday
before Justice Burton. When the time
for trial came, change of venue was
asked by the prisoners counsel, and at 2
o'clock yesterday they were arraigned be-
fore ESQ, RosZell w. j. Knight Esq. of
Dubuque, attorney for the railroad, APP
pearing for the State, and Jamison & Be-
gun for the defendants. The evidence
was conclusive as to the guilt of King
'ton, Brown and Wilson, but being not
50 clear as to Hollingshed, he was dis
charged. Kingston, evidently the leader
If the gang was find $50 and costs of the
suit, and Brown and Wilson were each
sentenced to 80 days Imprisonment in Jail.

Nor CALLED FoR.-By reference in the
report of the City Council proceedings in
another column, our readers will see that
that honorable body has taken preliminary
steps preparatory TO the reduction of
Saloon licences to 800 per annum, ex-
cept those granted to saloons on Main
and contiguous streets. We doubt if this
contemplated action will meet the ap-
proval of the better part OF the con-
lnunity. We doubt if it is demanded by
anybody except the whisky sellers, whose
interests it is intended to suaservc, and
we think that the Council will do we'll to

the people my not have something to say
in the matter. 1t may be the sense" IF

MULTIPLIED BY TuEEE.-Our readers
may have noticed in the census returns
already published in the BULLETIN from
some Of the eastern townships in this
county, the remarkable dispropor,ion of
births to deaths, as returned by the as
SCISSORS; the number coming into the world
being in about the proportion Of three to
one going out of it, We think we have
the clue to this circumstance in an mel
dent that transpired at Wards Corners
last Saturday, being nothing less than the
birth of three spanking girl babies 10 the
wife of Mr.. G. O. Hewitt, of that place.
At last accounts the triplets were as Lively
crickets, the mother doing well. ard the
father amazed and bcwillercd over the
extent of the blessing and the wonder
fully fruitful qualities of Iowa soil and
air. All of which accounts for the dis
parity in the census reports.

\ You've man named Stewart Beatty, a
brother of the Superintendent of the Poor
Farm, had his pocket picked of $50 cash,
short time since. He took lodgings at
one of our hotels and was shown to sleep
in room occupied by another transient
guest. When he woke in the morning, he
found that his roommate had already
arisen, and that his money was missing.
Upon inquiry he ascertained that the man
who had roomed with him had departed
before breakfast, and that the landlord
wa unacquaintcd with his name, resi-
