Arrest of a Confidence Man.

N. a. Miller, confidence man, was arrested yes
terday by Captain Campbell and Patrolman Barlow.
His scheme was to buy cheap watches in the East,
bring them here and pawn them for more than they
worth. He would then sell the pawn checks at a
small discount, and when the buyer applied for
the watch he invariably found he had been swinded
Yesterday Miller pawned watch at Edwin & Marks's
pawn shop. No. % South Illinois street, for
$35, and one at Solomon's loan Office for
$47. The checks sold, and the persons who got
them found the watches worth. respectively, about

A MAN FOUND DEAD.
A Dissipated Engineer Kills Himself from
Falling on Railroad Track.

Yesterday morning at O'clock when the night
men at the gas works were going off duty, they
found man dead on the switch of the j., M &
l. road. He was laying with mis- head on the
track. as If he had fallen there. The police were
notified and the patrol wagon took the man to
the Station-houss, where he was recognized as
Lewis Anderson, formerly an employee in the
l., B. g. w. freight yards. There was an ugly
cash on his right temple, and his eye
was blackened and blood-shot from a
blow The remains were taken to
Herrman's undertaking establishment In the
afternoon the coroner held an inquest over the
body, and his verdict was that he came to his
death by falling and striking his head on the
rail He was for many years connected with the
l., b. q w. railroad, first as engineer and last as
switchman. He was addicted to hard drinking,
and lost his positions through dissipation. He
claimed Seymour as his home, though he re-
sided most Of the time at Columbus.
He WAS a pensioner, and one week
since came to the city and drew
and when he was found only So of the money re.
NAMED So far as known, he has no relatives,
and no one has yet appeared at the undertaker's
to claim his remains. It was supposed OF first
that be had been murdered and put on the track,
but there seems to be little foundation for this
belief. The position in which he was found, the
corresponding Of the wound with the rail, and
the fact that he had been wandering around the
railroads drunk all week. add to the belief that
he fell. and, striking his temple on the rail, died
from the injury.

Bill from County Clerk McLain.

County Clerk McLain, for copying and writing
records when the fee or allowance is not speci-
fed, can, by law. claim ten cents per hundred
words. The Legislature authorized him to
mako record of the soldier lists taken up by
the deputy assessors this spring. but di-
rectly named no fees for this service,
except when he furnished pension agents and
others with copies Of these records. In such
instances he is to be allowed remuneration men,
toned in the general paragraph Of the statutes
relating to clerks fees But the act further
says that all regular organizations of old sol
diers can have copies furnished them free Some

is said that Commissioner Sahm also gave this

ground that there was no law for charges for

A PROTEST FROM THE SOUTH SIDE.
Opposition to the Ordinance Proposing to
Narrow the Viaduct East of the Depot,

A meeting Of citizens is to be held at the
court house on tomorrow evening at o'clock
to demonstrate against the passage Of the ordi.
nances proposing to narrow the viaduct east Of
the Union Depot to thirty feet. and to dispense
with the improvement and enlargement of the
tunnel.
In speaking of the viaduct ordinance, prom
inent South Side citizen said to Journal report
er yesterday: "a surprise at the action of the
Council In voting to allow the Union Railway
Company to construct q thirty-foot viaduct in
stead of the fifty foot one they agreed to make,
does not express the feeling Of the people.
1t is astounding. Meridian and Illinois
streets are already surrendered-closed up
with the express understanding that ffty-foot
viaduct is to be built, and ON the heels of this
the company comes in and proeures the passage
OF this ordinance to let them off with mere
alley way. The fifty viaduct was TO have
two sidewalks, the propose one is to have one
But more than this, another ordinance passed
the Council, at the last meeting, to release the
Union Railway Company from their obligation
TO pay thirty thousand dollars for the
repair and enlargement OF the tunnel,
and that the company must pay only fifteen
thousand dollars after the citizens have raised,
Wy prAFotc subscription, the OaIduC0 NOW why.
in the name of common sense does the Council
cut down the viaduct, and give away fifteen
thousand dollars? Do the people demand it?
Not man-not one It is all for the benefit of
the Union Railway Company, who havo had in
estimable advantages granted to them already.
"Thirty feet is too narrow for viaduct; but
sidewalk of at least six or eight feet must come
off this. so that the roadway could be not over
twenty-five to twenty-four feet wide. Here
must pass all the travel of Meridian street,
Madison avenue, Delaware street, and
much of that Of the whole South Side.
Wood-wagons, loads of hay, loads of boxes and
barrels. great, bulky wagons, carriages horses,
buggies market wagons. all the country
trade of the Bluff road, the Three notch
line and the Madison road reaching
down through this county into johnson and
Morgan, must pass this way 1t is preposterous
to think of crowding all this into this little
thirty-foot viaduct Fifty feet is too narrow.
1t will be 800 feet long, and all
these teams vehicles, loads and corners
and eoers forever must meet and
pass in this miserable, pinched alley Will the
alderman give away the peoples rightsa Will
they sacrifice their interests without thought
Let us see. The people should wake up and de-
nounce this folly and madness"

Tneanor DR.. Bradley, whose title was conferred
by Kenyon Colleges. was instituted priest at
Christ's Church-the only time the office has
eyer been performed IN this city, and probably
the only time in this State.
He Is of genial disposition, and while hold
ing an earnest belief in his own church, Ii not
thereby prevented from seeing good in other
branches of religious faith. He believes fully in
what he breaches and bis good works 60 with his
preachments, as he can after be found at the
bedside of the sick and dying. He favors evan
gelistic work, and has held missions in Dayton,
o., Covingtop, KY, Erie, Pa. and other points
DR.. Bradley has the faculty Of drawing the
young people to his aid and has popularized
Sunday school and other work. He has taken
an advanced position for many years on evange-
listic and lay preaching in the church, and has
six licensed lay readers and preachers belonging
60 the parish. He occupies prominent position
tn the diocese; is chairman Of the standing COM
mlttee of the diocese, dean of the middle convc-
cation and member of the board Of missions.
BE is delegate to the general convention OF the
church which meets in Chicago Ia October.
DR.. Bradley is not only endowed by nature
with musical talent and possesses fine tenor
voice, but has perhaps the best musical educa-
Zion Of any pastor fn Indiana This gift adds
greatly to the beauty of bis services, and his
voice awakens q sympathy Ia his audience which
is helpful. The male choir Of Christ's Church
was instituted at DIR. Bradlsy's request, and en-
Eouraged and assisted by him. This choir is q
feature Of the service, and one that could not
now be laid aside. Had the Doctor turned his
attention to The stage he might have become
famous as a singer, and been bright particular
star in possibly the American Opera Company,
where he would have bsep the sole representa-
tive Of this Nation among the babel of tongues of
the foreign members of that company.
For a number Of years DR.. Bradley, who 10

cation at Newport, R. L This is not altogether a
vacation, as he holds services every Sunday at a
church there. He is regarded as strong church
man. yet thoroughly evangelistic in all his
Reaching. avoiding extremes. There Is much
enthusiasm In his work, aud he Is greatly be-
loved by his people, who are afraid that one of
khesC days he will be taken away from them to
be made bishop.

Both Sides Must BE Represen ted.

Judge Walker has adopted rule not to hear
divorce until both sides represented unless
good cause to act otherwise is shown This is for the
purpose of counteracting any attempts at collision
between plaintiff and defendant. Day before yester
day the complaint Of Mary E. Lynn was called. and
the defendant Adam A. Lynn, not appearing, he con.
tinued the day to give the husband time to
answer the summons. Lynn failing again to appear,
the Judge ordered rule in attachment to be served
on him for contempt.
