AT DEMOCRATIC HEADQUARTERS.
The Tide Thought 10 he Setting I'm I'm
Favor of HOa.ly.

COLCMBUs, September PA special to
the Cincinnati Enquirer from t-.s CITY
says: The Democrats have e,i,.ently had
turn OF the tide in their favor at the right
time. For nearly month ,he Republicans
have claimed the boom, but it has exhaust
ed its force ana for the past week things
have been turning in favor OF tb"
Democrats. There is noticeable re-
action in favor OF Judge Hoadly, who
has been abused anG misrepresentei while
he was afflicted. The tactics resOrted 10 in
1872 to kill Greeley by s!ardcring have
created symp2tl y aud sentiment this ycar.
At the same tiulr the Republican dodge for
a tariff scare has failed, while the spirit
ualIsts, liquor trade, liberalists, coIored
voters and other elements are solid against
them. Aitnou IA there remains but two
weeks Of the campaign, there Is
SOt Huch Feeling shown
on the surface and very little betting is in
dulged in. The State Committee OF inde.
pendent Colored voters has established
State headquarters here IN the Grand
Opcra House Block, and is actively EN-.
gagged at work in sending ont documents
and circulars and doing AL tncy can to
show their race that IL is best Tor
them TO shake off Political s"rTitude
and support Judge Iloadly who was
prominent anti-sayery man. Ihey have
decorated their quarters nicely, and are e1-
pccteG TO show good results in October.
The feeling at Democratic headquarters is
excellent. They are very cheerful, feeling
that their boom has come on the merits Of
the canvass at the right time, and that 1t
will hold on TO carry tL"w hrorgh on the
election day with a majority larger than
hat Of last year.

DANISH ~COURTsHIPs.
Some OF the Peculiarities Which At
tend Them in council Bluffs

A very peculiar, and In some re-
spects ludlcrous case has Just been
heard and decided before Justice
schurz. A young Dane sued for 800,
which he claimed to have expended
on q young Danish womsn In presents
to her, and In paying her passage to
this country, 1t being his Intention to
marry her. 1t seems that he wal at
work on o farm when he sent for her
to come to this country, and after
arriving here she secured en-
ployment on the same
farm, and worked with her
lover, husking corn and doing other
labor. Hebrew the money for both.
At last she decided to marry another
man, and as o as she did 90 her
former lover commenced suit.
She showed In defense that the
money he had paid out for her was q
present, and further claimed an Offset
for what money she had earned in
the corn field. The jury decided In
her favor, giving her judgment for
one dollar.
Justice Schurz has had another case
which involves . Danish courtship
also. A short time ago a young man
who owns q farm not many miles from
here, wooed and won a young woman
who wss employed In one of the hotels
here. One day he came to the city.
and sought an interview with his be-
trothed, but the hotel folks kept her

however, the lovers got together and

man insisted on remaining until morn.
ing with his bride, intending next day
to take her home to the farm.
The hotel folks could not
believe the claim of marriage, and tho
girl was sent to 60 to her room, while
the bridegroom was told to leave. He
stole around In the alieyway to get an
interview with her as to what they
should do, when some of tho boys
about the hotel, who were on the look.
out for him, began to shell him with
oyster cans. He beat q hasty and
frightened retreat, and not being much
used to the ways of q city, he was at
a loss completely as to his plans. He
hurried home to the farm, while the
young woman, nearly frenzied, thought
he had deserted her entirely. She
sought advice of . policeman who took
her to his house, and then wrote the
young husband a letter, on receipt OF
which he came In and claimed his own,
taking her home In pesce.
