HEILISu HEISINGER.
He Went Home Drunk, Last Might,
and Drove His Wife Out
Into the Street.

A middle sged lady, giving her name as
Mrs. George Heisinger, called at Justice
Webber's Office this morning and related a
most piiiable story of the wrongs she had
suffered at the hands of drunken and
brutal husband
She says that she is the mother of six
children, the oldest Of whom are two
grown sons These sops have supported
ne the entire family for many months
past, the husband spending every cent he
can get hold of for whisky, and being \
curse rather than a benefit To his family.
Yesterday Heisinger informed his oldest
son that he desired to go Ia Hickory coun-
ty for the purpose of collecting a claim
due him there. Young Heisinger, upon
this statement, furnished his father with
SO for the purpose oil paying the expenses
of his contemplated trip. Instead of going
to Hickory county, this unnatural brute
made his way to the nearest gin mill,
where he remained carOusing until the
last cent of the money his son had fur
nished him was gone. Crazed with whis-
XIV he went to his home al late hour last
night, and proceeded To give his faithful
vile ON unmerciful beating. He then threat
ened to kill her, and in abject terror of her
life the poor woman fled from
home. She informed Squire Webber that
she was afraid to go home as long as her
husband remained there. Accordingly a
warrant was issued for Heisincer and he
will be compelled to answer To the charge
of striking, beating. and wouuding his
wife.
1t is is great pity that there is not a
workhouse in this county, where such
brutes as Heisinger can be taken care of.
A fine of few dollars or thirty days
Jail sent nee is altogether too mild a pun
lshment for such crimes as this.

During the administration of Mayor
Faulhacer, a similar outfit made applica-
ton to the city authorities TO give nm en-
terlainment on Sunday night. The agert
was referred to Faulhaber, and he refused
to grant license TO any entertainment on
Sunday, rs it was contrary TO the ordi-
nancsS.
They tried all kinds of persuasion and
deception, but OF no avail. On the Sunday
night that the performance was 10 De given,
the mayor stationed two officers at the
opera house, with instructions To allow no
performance, and TO arrest any one who
attempted To play.
The show did not exhibit and a Certain

to be a religious affair and never applied
for license, as no license was needed ii

AN HONEST MAN.
John Wheeler. Farnham & Gill
mans HEX Driver, Proves
Himself Such

1t has been so generally charged as to
almost become a tradition, that the colored
man is dishonest /; that given chance he
will make way with that which does not
belong to him, doing So in secretive man
uer. While there Is much ground for this
charge, especially when chickens, and other
small Try, are missing from roosts and pens.
but strike the average between the man OF
color and the white citizen who
has no visible means of support.
and it will be found that the latter are
about as thievish in their propensities and
actual methods of obtaining bread and
butter as the former. People. without
stoppi & TO compare notes, readily accept
the idea that the darkey is q natural born
thief and that, while he may not be
burglar, or robber on large scale, still
he has an itching palm for other peoples
property and that at fair chance he will
spirit it away.
But there is one colored man in
this city who has proven himself
an honest man, and who deserves
public mention in the columns of the paper
published for the people now on earth.
This man. whose name is John Wheeler,
drives one Of Farnham i Giimsns hacks,
and as such he frequently has the hand
ling of considerable money.
One day. last week, an order was sent to
the livery stable to h we hack sent to
certain house to take lady and her bag
bage to one of the trains. Wheeler was sent,
and when he reached the depot with his
passenger she handed him what she sup
posed, and what he did also at the time, q
silver dollar.
But when he returned to the stable
he found the dollar tn be q
twenty-dollar gold piece. This in
crease in the money rather bcwildered
Wheeler, but, like the honest man that he
is, he 1t once turned over q dollar to Mr..
Farnham out OF his own purse, at the
same time showing his employer the TWEEN
y-dollar gold piece, telling him OF the
mistake the lady had made.
Mr. Farnham told Wheeler to keep the
money until il MAS called for, which he
knew would he done rs soon as the lady
discovered her mistake. As neither the
driver nor Mr. Farnham knew the lady's
name, they awaited developments. This
morning a proper party called for the
money, and Wheeler promptly turned it
over Had he been inclined, he could
have kept the extra nineteen dollars, and
no one could have proven that he had re-
ceived that much more than the hack fare.
But his honesty would not permit such
rascalily, and for that reason he deserves
great credit.
Mr. Fsrnham saws Wheeler has been
i'm his employ eight years, and that he
never once betrayed single trust or kept
bacx one cent. This is q fine record.

A Singular Death.

Yesterday afternoon two young men, e.
Disqua and Girls. Geisler. hired horse and
buggy firm Farnham & Gilmsn's livery
stable, for the purpose OF taking pleasure
ride.
After driving around the city for time,
they started for Flat creek. On the way
they caught up with the carriage OF Mr.
David Dean, aud drove along behind 1t.
1t seems that there is place on the road
where Mr.. Dean has been in the habit of
stopping, and when the place was
reached, yesterday, his horse suddenly
halted. The horse driven by the
young men WAS very close to Mr. Deans
carriage, which Is two-seated one, and
has rod sticking on. behind it, made .
Quick turn to pass by, when his neck
struck the end of the rod, severing the
jugular vein, causing the death OF the ami
NAL in very short time.
1t is stated that the young men were not
careless in their driving, but that the acci-
dent as one of that class one leasts ex-
poets. There are those, however, who say
that the horse, which is high spirited
animal. was driven very hard, and that his
death could have been prevented.
Mr. Farnham stated that he would not
have taken 500 for the horsey a. he was
young, blooded and splendid driver.

Laid to Rest.

The funeral of the late Mrs. Lulu E.
Simn,s, Sho died at Joplin, and whose re-
mains were brought to this city for inter.
ment, took place this morning, Rev. Allen
J. Van Wagner officiating.
A host of sorrowing friends gathered
upon the occasion to pay last, sad Iibuie
to this young wife and mother of but a lev
days. Mr.. Van Wagner's remarks were
tender and full Of consolation, though in a
case like this time alone can give surcesse
from the great sorrow.
A long procession of carriages, filled
with relatives and loving and sympsthising
friends, followed the plumed hesrse to
Gods acre, where the dear dead sleep that
dreamless slumter amid supsh ne and
storm, free from earth's cares and Sorrows.

THOUGHTLESS THIEF.
Rob't Alley Sells a $500 Horse
for $25, and is Arrested
on Suspicion.
After Considerable Pumping by
Capt. Stevens, He Admits Hav-
ing Stolen the Animal.

Shortly before noon today an onery.
green-looking young man, riding large,
brown horse, put In an appearance at the
stables of Of Ben Lyon, where he offered
the horse Tor sale. After considerable
decker NJ, trade was ma AIDE, Capt Stevens
agreeing 10 pay S45 for the animal. The
captain At once suspected that the horse
was stolen property, both on account of
the appearance and suspicious Con-
duct OF the young man, aud of the
very low figure for which he was
not onlv willing but glad to part with the
horse. Capt. Stevens gave the young man
a check for As. writing on the check, Mot
to be paid unless the bearer is fully identi-
fed" As the captain expected, the young
man soon returned and stated that he could
not get the money on the check. Capt.
Stevens then told the young man that he
sometimes cashed checks at discount, and
that ne WAS always glad of an opportunity
TO make lew dollars in that way He
offered the fellow SIS for the check, and
its offer was readily accepted. Captain
Stevens then told the young man to remain
there at the stable until he
could go to the bank and get the money
The captain then went out, ostensibiy to 60
.
policeman. He soon ran across Officer jim
Gosssge and informed him of what had
transpired. The two then returned to the
stable, and the officer arrested the young
man and started with him 20 the calabOOss.
Ga reaching the door Of the cooler the Of
ticer loosened his hold of his prisoner, in
order to unlock the door. The young
horse thief took advantage If this oppor-
tunity to
MAKE A BREAK FOR LIBERTY,
and he darted away at his best rate
of speed, out through the market
house The officer followed closely and
succeeded in Overhauling the flying thief
just as he was emerging from the rear door.
He was brou hit back and thoroughly
searched. \ very small dagger or bowie
knife Was found concealed under his vest.
Only twenty five cents in money was found,
and no letters or papers by which
he could BIZ Identifies. After being search
ed, he was turned over to Capt. Stevens,
who took him by himself into a corner Of
the room and proceeded to pump HIM
The young man was at first very reticeut,
bat the captains persuasive eloquence
finaiy had its effect and he n
ACKNOWLEDGED HAVING STOLEN THE
HORSE.
He said that he stole the horse last night
from farmer residing two miles from
Lewis station. He went 10 the farm house
during the day yesterday, and solicited
work. the farmer, whose name he did
not know, had no work for MIN. He
then hung around the premises, making
hi Iself familiar with the surroundings,
until dark, when he saddied up the horse
and rode away.
The young man gives his name as Rob't
Alley, and says his parents reside In West
Virginia, but that he has not been home
t1r several years.
His chances for being a guest of the state
for an extended period OF time are very
fiattering.
