opened the door OF the stage.

he shouted again, "or I'll pull you out

The plot thickens in the Levy swind-
ling case, and the probabilities Of an
amicable settlement are decidedly small
The case seems to have taken personal
turn and will be prosecuted with cOnsid-
cradle energy. Since Mr.. Levy's re-
turn he promised Mr.. Sears that his
half of the bill would'be paid, but that
Mr.. Rudio would never get cent, and
that If he Levy only had the money
necessary to pay fine, Rudio would
rusticate for his health for couple Of
weeks. When RudlO was informed Of
the proceedings, he obtained warrant
for Levy,'s arrest, and that gentleman
was quickly taken into custody and car
charged with obtaining money under
false pretenses. He furnished bonds for
his appearance and was released. He
then devoted himself to securing the
names OF those who are in the habit Of
playing games at the Manhattan, and
it is said that he will have Rudio ar
rested for keeping a gambling house,
and will have these parties summoned
as witnesses before the grand jury.
Rudio was also closeted with Colonel
Daley to see about having Levy taken
before the grand jury. It is some time
since the proprietor Of the Manhattan
has had SO much business on his hands,
and it is suggested that he secure q
proxy to look after his legal business so
that he can give his full time and atteu-
tion to booming George RudiO as the
coming alderman OF the First ward.
The Manhattan has the reputation OF
being strictly temperance billiard hall,
and while cards are played there for
cigars, that seems to be the nearest ap-
prOach of violation of the gambling
law which can be touched upon. II an
atte npt is made to construe this into
gambling the case will be watched with
much interest. The whole trouble has
arisen over the claim that Levy gave a
IS check on bank in which he had no
money.

A Peculiar EsCaDe.

Yesterday morning when the Burling-
ton flyer pulled into the local depot a
lady passenger, evidently thinking that
she had arrived Mt the transfer, stepped
from the train and entered the depot.
She then learned her mistake and as
the train was starting rushed out to get
on board. The conductor shouted to her
and waved her back, but she would not
heed him. She had bird cage in one
hand and large bundle in the other,
and in attempting to get upon the steps
OF the car missed her footing, and had
not Officer Unthank caught her as she
was falling, would undoubtedly have
gone under the wheels. She was much
excited and gave as reason for her
haste that her husband had been in
jured at Omaha on the preceding day,
and she had left her home in Burling-
ton in response to telegram, and was
much afraid that he might die before
she reached him. When she realized
her narrow escape she burst into tears,
end feelingly expressed her gratitude
to the officer whose quickness and pres
ence of mind had saved her from a ter
rible death.

A Great Battle,

Is continually going on in the human
system. The demon of impure blood
strives to gain victory over the consti-

weapon with which to defend ones self,
drive the desperate enemy from the
field, and restore peace and bodily
health for many years. Try this pc

Ned Harrigan's Story OF an Adventure
Tin California Twenty Years Ago.

Edward Harrigan, the favorite actor,
tells some amusing stories about his
early experiences in California. Nearly
twenty years ago he was coming down
from small town to Sacramento by
stage coach. 1t was a cold, snowy night
and he and his companions were hud-
died closely together smoking their
pipes and longing for the town lights to
appear. The stage driver and friend
were holding desultory conversation
on the box, to which Harrigan listed
for want OF something better to do.

The District Court.

In the district court another day was
spent in the hearing OF Richardson VS..
Scott. The defendant was on the stand
in the afternoon up to the hour for ad-
journment. and his cross-examination
will probably occupy a goodly portion
of to-day. The case is being fought
every step OF the way and is taking far
more time than was anticipated when it
was started. 1t may occupy several
days yet.
