ConnciIR RluGs Ahead.

Last fall the Council Bluffs gas and elec-
trc light company, on account of increased
demand for electric lights, were compelled to
enlarge their plant and increase the power by
adding another l5O-horse power engine.
Propositions were submitted by various man.
utactures, but the order was finally given to
the Ogden iron works in this city. The
prin cipa competitor was the WcStngh ouse
company, and several of their high speed
engines were already at work in the atiOn.
The requirements put upon the Council
Bluffs builders obliged them to COnSt ruct
an engine that would not only compete
with the Others out fu rnsh the same power
and effect n saving of 2Oper cent. The en-
CINE was built and has been furnishing the
power required TO operate all the city arc
lights since vember IS. The fin al test has
been made and the results are much better
than was expected 1t showed saving of 81
per cent in the amount of fuel, and Mr..
Ogden, by the terms of his contract gets a
premium of 500 above the contract price Of
the engine. The electric light people are
highly pleased with the machine and have
given the builder hearty written endorse
ment. The device for governing the speed of
the engine, and electric lGh ting requires the
steadiest possible motion, is so perfect that
there is n variation of less than two-thirds of
1per cent when the entire load of the ma
chine is thrown on or off while running at
full speed.

Yesterday afternoon FL; Brown and j. II.
KOblenN were arrested by Deputy Marshall
White on an Information filed by n Schur2
charging him with larceny. The facts in the
case, as related by Mr.. SchuH, show pecu
liar state of affairs. According to Mr..
Schun' statement he rented n house to
KOblen2 at - North Seventh street some
time ago Koblcna kept on living there and
the rent bill kept on climbing up, as such
things do. Finally Mr.. koblenz' bill
amounted to $40, and Mr. Schur2 in
timated tnat settlement would be in
order. Mr. Kobcnz paid him $40 on
the strength OF his representations.
Last Thursday one Of Mr. Schurz neighbors
told hlm that his tenant was about to leave
the Bluffs for . maha and had his household
furniture all packed, ready to be taken acros 5
the river. In order to secure the $50 which
was still due on the rent, Mr. Schurz had a
writ of ofa,tachmc cnt ISSUED, andunderit seized
all kObenG furniture. Is oDenZ thcrcupOn
left the house and told Schurz to keep e
furniturne.
At about l?:3O o'clock yesterday mornin =
Mr.. SChurl' family was aroused by strange
noises that seemed to proceed from the hOus g
that had just been vacated, and which is only
a sh Ort di stance from the one used by SChurZ
as n dwelling house. one of Mr., Schurz
sons seized II double barrclled shotgun an q
rushed wildly to the place from which tn e
noises seemed to come. L pon arriving at tn c
scene he found Brown koblenz four other
men and two teams there and one of the

"Why, this thing happened last

Of kidney trouble, as l have been
troubled with kidney disease all my

that WAS soon TO become . mother.
She said that she could save that
trouble and could relieve me without

she would do the work for $50. told

then told my husband what the woman

pain or danger to 60 ahead, but to be
sure IN the first place that it was safe.
"When called on the madame again
told her If she could assure me she

the $50. She then referred rue to Mrs.

and said that they never 50 much as

operation. She said some of them had
gone to parties and balls the same day
they were operated upon. She gave
me lot OF medicine, telling ME she

finally she gave the electric treatment

Another interesting case is that Of a
Mrs. Ed. Dolly, wife of prominent
Greeley, COL, official. In Mr.. Dolly's
case the infant is alleged to have been
cut up and fed to dogs. In the cases
OF Gertie Harris and Clara Leawick,
tGeir offspring was thrown into CESS
pool.
The police promise within the next
few days to make wholesale arrests,
and will produce evidence to show that
the above cases are but q few of many
others.
Madame Astle has been held in $l0,-
600 bail. She will have no trouble in
securing same 1t is said that numer-
Gus cablegrams have been sent to Lon
don asking for funds, which will be
forthcoming. II is doubtful if the
woman can ever be convicted, owing to
the incrlmipating evidence which she
holds against prominent society people

ABBoTT'S DISGRACE.

HIS Scurrilous Ncst-Htding Rudely In.
terrupted By the sheriff.
John Abbott, the man who keeps q
candy stand at North Park. is again in
trouble, and this time deeper than ever
before. John is very immoral and is
low receiving his just retribution for
the manner in which he has been con-
ducting himself. About month ago a
young girl was sent to the Industrial
School at Adrian, as result of her as
sociatlon with Abbott. Instead of
being filled with remorse by the knowl-
edge Of the fact that he was the means
OF sending one innocent girl down the
road to rum, that act seems but to work
as stimulus upon his debased nature,
and now he has brought Disgrace upon
his venerable old mother who lives ut
% Ellsworth-ave. In his tent at North
Park he had largo dry
goods box, the top Oft and
turned over on it's SIDE. Across the
opening was a curtain and the INSIDE
was furnished for sleeping purposes. A
shameless creature of the feminine gen.
der, by the name of Angelica Williams,
has, in company with Abbott, been oc-
cupying this box for some time. The
conduct of the pair has been such rs to
attract the attention of people living
near. Abbotts mother heard of her
sons scurrlious actions, and requested
that be b. arrested If he did not desist
after she had cautioned him. Last
night there was a repetition of his dis
orderly conduct and Deputy Sheriff
Seney brought them both to the jail.
Angelica gave her age as 23. She said
she never drank unless she had a good
chance, and was much pleased with her
Incarceration. With Abbott II was diff
ferent. He begged and pleaded to be
allowed to 60 home, but it was too late,
and he is now languishing in durance
