Congratulations to Saulpaush.

The many friends in this city of
Clarence II. Saulpaugh, of Mankato,
Mimi, will be pleased to learn that
Victoria Stein, alias Alice Booth, of
Chicago, failed 10 collect from him
the damages she sued fer on account
of an alleged breach of promise. The
case has Just closed ut Mankato, hav-
ing been on trial for some 10 days,
and resulted in verdict of 81 for
the plaintiff, and she sued for $780,
600. Saulpaugh was unfortunate
enough to have written this woman
few years ago some foolish letters,
and it was on the strength of these
letters that the suit was brought.
1t was shown during the trial
that the woman was au adventures
and had been evidently scheming fol
years to weave web around
Saulpaugh that would be too strong
for him to break. About a year ago
Saulpaugh was married TO a very es
Unable lady, and soon after his mar.
riage, this woman (Stein) endesv
ored through her attorneys to col
lect large sum of money from him
thinking that rather than allow tn,
case to go into court, he would set
tie. In this she was mistaken, a
Saulpaugh fought the case to tn
end, and his wife. like true woman
stood by him in his u0le.

number of old coins, and after

the passengers on the Omaha express
in attempting to elude capture by

Instead of following the despera-
does from Atalissa, the West Liberty
authorities went oh a far as Wilton.
Returning to West Liberty q posse

tine and deputies also joining in the
chase. The robbers were found hid
ing in hole in dense thicket OF

least resistance. They we're brought
back to West Liberty and from there
to Muscatine, where they were
lodged in the county Jail. They
gave their names as Foster and
Brown, of ST. Louis. \ description

The Test Pits.
The Princeton Musical Club,

The Princeton Mandolin, Guitar
and Glee clubs entertainment at the
Burtis next Saturday evening, the
reserved seat sale for which opens
Wednesday morning at Fluke's book
store, Davenport, promises to be an
unusually brilliant event in tri-city
society. The Louisville Courier
Journal says Of the clubs recent visit
to that city:
The scene was a very brilliant one,
as the boxes we're filled with beauti-
full women dressed in brightly col
ored evening gowns. The concert
given by the clubs was of the sort
that catches the popular fancy. The
standard of glee clubs is not high
from a musicians standpoint, but
when it is stated that Princeton Uni
versity's clubs are fully the equal of
any that have been heard, it is but
expressing the opinion of the large
audience of last night. The pro-
gram was in three parts of six num-
bers. which, however, were encored
80 that about fifty numbers were
given. That even did not satisfy the
audience. Mr.. Reichner and the
Glee club of the first part won the
most applause. His solo, while he
used to wait by the garden gate,
while his mother stroked his hair ~
made great hit. OF all the selec-
tions the glees proved the most
pleasing, all the voices seeming to
be under such perfect control of the
leader. The cornet obligato by Mr..
McNish and Glee club, performing
the post-horn, recalled to many the
days when they used to wait for the
mail. MIR. Carroll and the Glee club
gave the most representative of the
glees. s.Still His Whiskers Grew
and "Susan Brown" brought down
the house, seeming to put all in s
good nature. OF the instrumen,
selections, 1.-The Intermezzo," from
"Cavalleria Rusticana," and tn,
Rubenstein ..Melodie" we're exquis
itely rendered, and we're calculated
to satisfy those of a classical prefer
ment.

Buggy aud Street Car Collide.

GA Moline young man and a
female friend ought to feel rather
thankful for their last nights escape.
The pair were driving up Twenty
fourth street from the viaduct about
7:S0, in light buggy, in careless
manner, and at Fifth avenue crashed
into car Al, coming west. Luckily
for the occupants of the vehicle, the
car struck the horse, for had it been
otherwise. they would undoubtedly
have been thrown underneath the car
wheels. The animal was thrown
down and the vehicle swung partly
around, breaking the shafts and har-
ness, but not molesting the occu-
pants. The horse is seriously in
jured internally, and will probably
die.
