summer in the South.

The advent of summer in the south is de-
scribed by an editor in apparently glowing
language; The mercury, like a cringing syco-
plant, quick to do homage to the coming
queen, bounded up toward the nineties, and
the glowing sunshine showered down upon
the woods and fields and sweltering mortals
like wavering sprays of molten gold.

Boys In Public sch-o1s

1t is to be regretted that New Fork
boys have such poor opportunities for
physical development. few days ago
twenty of them from one public school
applied for examination to be admitted to
the Naval academy at Annapolis All were
found-so it is stated-well enough up
in their studies. but not one large enough
and strong enough to pass the physical
examination. 1t is not likely that the
fault of their physical deficiency was due
entirely to the schools, as some of our
bowling newspapers tell us. The fault is,
many of the parents of these boys have
themselves deteriorated by working in
doors at mechanical or sedentary occupa-
ton, and by living in narrower apart
ments with less fresh air than they would
have had in the country. Having less phys
ical strength themselves, their offspring
also have less. We must not blame our
schools for this. But we may blame them
because they do not provide the best
physical as well as the best intellectual
training of Health.

The Wild and Wicked Nettie.

New YoRK, Jan. TO- Special Telegram to
the BEE. The story about Nettie Dunlap
has awakened an interest in the heroine
among many uptown people in this city,
where she resided for several years. AS the
coy, innocent, and doveliko Nettie she made
friends everywhere in New York and cut
pretty wide swath through the hearts of
susceptible young men who We're wont to
attend the Dutch Reformed church, on the
corner of Fifth avenue and Forty eighth
street. Nine. Louise Cappiani, the well
known teacher of music, had Nettie as ia
vorite pupil for three years. She stated
to-day that her Illinois pupil possessed a
magnificent mcZzo-soprano voice whlch
charmed every ear, and had she but con-
tinued in her musical studies, the young miss
from the west would have fairly developed into
prlma donna. When the committee of the
Dutch Reformed church held a meeting to
select new soprano Tor the cholr, MISS
Dunlap was the first and immediate choice:
She remained there q year. For several
months subsequent Miss Nettie sang in
Adlers church in Chickering hall, where she
is well remembered for her rendering of
ave Maria,h Il musical prayer composed by
Nine. Cappiani. She also appeared with
great success in several charity concerts and
other musical entertainments She sang on
three or four occasions at the evening ser
| vice in Plymouth church, Brooklyn, by IN
| vitation. When the first gossip connecting
| her name with that of her patron broke ovel
her head in 1883, she was guest at Nine
| CappianVs and was greatly affected by the
| publicity of the matter in the newspapers al
| Elgin, Ill. A dispatch from Bismarck, Oak,
| states she has been living there severa
| weeks with Judge Mactey, cutting II wide
| swath in society-and spending money with /
| lavish hand The stories have Just reached

| want declared they have been living as MAJ

HARRY HALL FLIES HIGH.
The Escaped Convict Pays Visit
to Kansas City.
HE HAS A PLEASANT TIME.
Introduced to Prominent People and
Officers OF the Law Under an
Assumed c-Detectivcs
Given the Slip.
He Eutoys His Liberty.

KANSAS CITY, Jan. 10.-Harry Hall who
escaped from the Nebraska state prison ut
Lincoln, where he was serving life sem
tence for the murder of IL ranchman named
Williamson, has been in this city for the last
three days under the assumed name of
George Walton. During the time he has
speculated little in wheat at the board OF
trade, spent his time in the company of many
well known citizens, and even introduced
himself to Deputy County Marshal Liggett
with the remark that probably they might
have business to transact with each other in
the near future. Hall escaped from the pen.
itentiary last Thursday night, and left Lin
coin on u Missouri Pacific train He was
traced as far as Weeping Water and the
warden of the pcnitcntiary and two detect
ives followed him to this place. Hall, how
ever, found the city big enough to evade
them without leaving it until Saturday
night, when it is believed he went to S.
Joseph.
Eleven years ago Hall was one of the best
known telegraph operators in this city.
When he walked into Frank Aims saloon on
| Fifth street, Friday afternoon with II black
slouch hat, partly crushed down over his
| eyes, Frank Aims said:
"Why, hello, Hall, what on earth are YOU
| doing hercin
"You are mistaken about my name," said
|
| speaker, ~ am Mr.. Walton, of Boston" And
| then Mr.. Walton, of Boston, shook hands
| with Il number of persons in the saloon with
an enthusiasm which at once betrayed his
| statement. He drew forth from an inner
| pocket a large roll of bills and invited the
| crowd to take drinks with him. SubscI
quently he was introduced to Judge Worthen,
| Police Surgeon Wood Registrar Gus Hoeth
| and II number of other persons as Mr.. Wal
| ton and after his departure the gentleman
| named learned that they had been talking
| with the man who escaped so ceverly from
the Lincoln penitentiary Thursday night
| A little over six years ago Hall committed
| the crime for which he was given life SEN
| tence The story of the crime and trial is an
| Interesting one. The man he was charged
| with shooting was found one morning on his
| ranch with u bullet hole in his head The
| ranchman was II well known and popular
| politician and the vigilantes were out in full
| force shortly after the crime was discovered.
| Hall was arrested, however, before the
| vigilantes could effect his capture, on cir
| cumstantial evidence, and, to escape the mob,
| his lawyers advised him to plead guilty to the
charge. This he did and introduced evidence
in his behalf to show that two bullet holes had
| been made in the wall by the stockman's re
| volver and that the shooting was done in self
| defense. Public feeling was strongly against
him. however, and he was given life sem
tence.

suspension or removal 1t is a
disgrace TO the state to have its
authority 50 openly defied Our people are
strong in their convictions that this law
should be enforced as well as others, and it
is the duty of the legislature to provide the
means. The authority of the legislature in
these matters is no longer matter OF dis
pute. The recent decision of the supreme
court of the United States settles that ques-
tion and on grounds so broad and just as to
make it impreguabe and final. The chief
and confident hope of opposers and violators
of the law has been that this tribunal of
final resort would set it aside or at least so
impair its functions as to render its continu-
ance impossible. On the contrary
this decision sustains the principle
of the law so completely and sweepingly
as to become its strong bulwark of support
and defense. With this powerful support it
only remains for the friends of good govern
mcnt and law and order in Iowa to push man
fully yet resolutely forward with this great
reform until the saloon and all illegal manu-
facture and sale of intoxicating liquors are
utterly destroyed. Such amendments should
be made to to the law as are needed and best
calculated to make it thoroughly effective in
accomplishing its purpose.

court to-day granted a mundamus in what is

request of Senator Cassatt, instructing the

Senator Young as to the conclusions that are
to be reached by that count. Senator Cassatt

DEs MONIES, Ia, jan. 1O.-Senator Wilson
was tonight renominated by the republican
caucus of the legislature.
The joint caucus of the republican members
of the legislature held this evening was
called earlier than ever before, consequently
the friends of Colonel Hepburn endeavored
to have it postponed to the regular time, later
IN the week. The friends of Senator Wilson
endeavored to force an early caucus, and II
test of strength was made on the first motion,
which was to defer voting for United States
senator till Friday evening. The vote stood
45 for postponcment to 4i against.
Senator Clark, of Page county, thereupon
withdrew the name of Colonel Hepburn from
the caucus Gaining that u majority of the
members were unwilling to grant his request
and give him fair show in the contest.
James +. Wilson was then nominated and
Senator Harsh, of Union county, then pro-
posed the name of Governor Larrabee, say
ing, as he did so, that it was without the
knowledge or consent of the governor.
The ballot showed that Mr.. Wilson re-
ceived 13 votes, Governor Larrabee 10
and scattering 6, making total
opposition of %, with Hepburn out of he
field. Wilson was then declared the nomi-
nee of the caucus and will be elected next
Tuesday. .--.s.....-
