A White Man Charged With AS
Saulting a COlOred
MatrOn.

The developments of the past day
or two tend to show that a portion, al
least, of the people inhabiting thi:
part of the country are not getting
better in a moral point of view. A
sensation that is a sensation is coming
to the surface despite the efforts of the
parties interested to keep the matter
secret, that will create an uproar in
high circles when it comes out. Al
present the officers will not tell the
names of the parties, but the case will
come up for trial before Justice Blair
Tuesday. The facts are as follows :
A day or two prior to the 10Th OF
the present month well known col
ored man charged his wife with being
too intimate with a certain white man.
The woman claimed that the white
man overpowered her and after &C
complishing his hellish designs, threw
three silver dollars into her lap and
left her. The husband made her 90
before Justice Blair and swear out a
warrent for the arrest of the white
man for assault and rape. The war
rant was issued ON the 18th and the
white man was taken
into custody Friday night.
He gave bail. On account of his fam
lily he said he did not want the mat
ter to be made public.
He says the woman sacrafced her
virtue for the SO and that there was
no assault or rape in the case.

of the lady chorlsters in their white

of St. Paul's Pro-Cathcdral, Melbourne,

ers made their appearance fully habit

ington Post reporter, which was a
novelty, The people have what they
call soups a soup is Il sort of out
door picnic. Each person invited
brings a dressed chicken. The host
provides the vegetables. The chickens
and vegetables are put into huge kettles,
holding ten to twenty gallons, and
until the combination is reduced almost

are introduced. The young folks stir
the soup with long-handled iron spoons,
walking around the kettle Us they stir.

there are many lively scrimmages
around the kettle. When the soup is
done it is ladled out into plates and
eaten, and is delicious. The custom is
an old one and L was unable to find its
origin. A company of Stonewall Jack

Indian Scaips in Demand.

A Monroe street hair dealer in the
Chicago Tribune: IF you know where
can get any Indian scalps 1 shall be
obliged to you for that information.
Indian scalps, like Buffalo heads, are
becoming mighty scarce. You never
can account for peoples tastes. Now,
about the last thing in the world that
some people want is an Indian scalp,
and yet there are people who want just
that sort of curiosity. ] had an Indian
belt not long ago which had nine scalps
hung to it, and / sold it to man on the
north side for $50. | have bunch OF
hair here-it isn't scalp, as there is no
skin attached to it, just II handful, as it
were. IT is worth $5. Indians are not
scalping rs much'as they used to, and
that is why scalps are high. In fact,
everything which, Indians use To make
is becoming scareer aud moe valuable.
Take the common IIndian basket that
used TO sell for 81 adozen, now you can I
get one for that money. There are two
reasons for this. One is that travellers
buy them first huaids as curiosities, and
pay the IndiansHi inst what they ask.
Another reason is chat since the gov
ernment has got TO taking such inter-
est in Indians, taking care of them. the
Indians arc lazier than ever, and make
less than formerly.

DISGKACED THE CLOTH.
An Episcopal Minister Barred From
the Pulpit for Drunkenness

WHITEWATER, Wis, Oct H. Special Tele-
gram to The BEE. Church circles are all
torn up over scandal which broke out in
the Episcopal church several weeks ago, and
which has just resulted in the banishment of
Rev. j. Howe Jenkins from the pulpit for
ever. The decree deposing Mr.. Jenkins was
read from the pulpit by Bishop Knight, who
came for the express purpose from New
York, where he was attending the council of
the Episcopal church.
Rev Mr.. jenkins came to Whitewater from
milwaukee,, where ne was for several months
assistant rector OF st. Johns church. Pre-
ViouS to his appearance in the Cream City he
was located in Texas. His wife is daugh-
ter of a member of parliament, and there is
a rumor that jenkins himself is the son of an
English duke.
Soon after settling ia Whitewater Jen-
kins began to conduct himself in peculiar
manner. 1t was alleged that he was too
fond of the cup, and that he frequently in
uulged in wine and other liquor to an extent
unbecoming gentleman of the cloth, to say
the least The members of his congregation
attempted to show him the error of his ways
but eXpostulations were of no avail, and
they finally closed up the church and refused
to permit him to hold services. He left the
state not long ago, and his present where
abouts is unknown.
When all the facts were made known to
Bishop knight, he Quietly returned from
New York and pronounced sentence of de-
gradatlon against the recreant divine.

DEs MONIES, Ia, Oct 1l.-ISpecial Tele-
gram to The BEE. The railroad commits
sioners have been asked to consider the mat
ter set forth in letter from Cook & Wilber,
of Mount Ayr, who say that on November {,
1888, they shipped fifteen tubs Of butter to a
firm in Chicago, and that IN some way they
went estray, bringing up in New York ana
being sold by the Wabash company, over
whose road the butter was shipped. The
consgner had asked for settlement of the
matter by the Wabash company, but their
claim had been ignored, and the commission
ers are asked for advice. Attention is also
called to the complaint of A. II. Gillette, who
had some household goods sent from Mount
Vernon TO Fort Madison over the Burlng-
ton, Cedar Rapids x Northern. BY the mis-
take of agents and delay in receiving an
swers he was put to great Inconvenience,
being compelled to rent house and fur
niture until the arrival of the goods. He
asks what relief can be obtained from the
