Roadster Clubs Matinee.

The Council Bluffs Roadster clubs second
matinee drew a large attendance at Union
park yesterday afternoon and the people who
had accepted the clubs generous invitations
witnessed some fine races. The track was in
good condition and the cool, bracing weather
made it possible for the horses owned by
the members to do their best work Three
races were Carded, one In class r, one in
class c and a special but one of the best
races of the afternoon was between the horses
of two Omaha men who refused to permit
their names to he given. Each owned good
horse and each was anxious to prove to the
other that his was the better, but both
feared to go on the race track to determine
the matter, lest their employers should dis
cover that they were owning and driving fast
horses.
All of the races were in three heats. The
first was a mile trot between Dr. Robert
sons Jack Gentry, Clark Pettits Huzzy, NJ.

Mansel Wicks, one of the pioneer citizens
of Council Bluffs, now located in Texas has
been in the city for several days visiting
his sons and daughters. Yesterday he had
occasion to visit an Omaha oculist and after
receiving the treatment, took out his wallet
to pay the bill. He had SIS in his wallet,
and after taking out two S. bills attempted
to return the remainder to his purse, but
instead dropped 1t on the floor of the waiting
room of the physicians office In the Office
at the time was a young girl and her blind
father When Wicks moved away from the
chair in which he had been sitting the girl
saw the roll of bills lying beneath It on the
floor. She picked it up and asked Wicks if
he had lost anything Wicks had put one
of the s. bills in his pocket, and finding that
this was safe gave negative reply and left
the office. The girl placed the money in the
hands Of the physician, Wicks did not miss
his money until he reached this side of the
river. He then reported to the police that
he had been robbed. Officer Anderson was
sent TO Omaha TO help investigate the matter.
The money was obtained and returned to its
owner.

The accident occurred on Thursday after

FAY TEMPLETON's ROLL.
After Several Trials She Captures Il
Fortune.


II matters little to Fay Templeton that in
creasing years, too solid flesh and loss of
sprightIiness have retired her from the stage.
1t makes only that difference which comes
to all when a career is closed too early 10
leave the mind content to pursue other lines.
But the once pretty soubrette can bid the
stage farewell and live on the interest of her
money. relates the Chicago Chronicle. Her
claims under the will of her last and most
prominent matrimonial venture have been
sustained by the New York courts. She will
shortly come into possession of the snug
sum of 100000. This is why she need not
gambol ponderously behind the footlights in
the vain endeavor to appear as she did
when she made her hit in ''The Mascotte."
Too much flesh has been the bane of more
than one footlight favorite. Some have
adopted a rigorous course OF training which
has produced startling results. But Fay was
never fond OF training. In fact she pre-
ferred to perform her part at catch weights.
For several years she remained in the same
class and then 1t was too late, She might
do for heavy old women but as soubrette
her attractions disappeared with her waist
line Too much rotundty of figure made it
necessary for her to cast about for other
means of enjoying the goods of life. That
is where she displayed the business ability
which enables her to live on the interest of
her money while others of the rotund class

Fay has been a wife twice. OF this fact

and all outsiders were at fault. Among her
ardent admirers was billy" West of min

Nobody knew why, and nobody has been

Fred White for GoVcrnor.
DES MONIES. June 25.-(Spocial Tele-
gramJ 1.-The gold standard democrats of Iowa
will hold their state convention in thie city
on July Z. and local leaders of the party de-
clare that there will be a large attendance
and that ticket will be put in the field.
On the latter point. however, there is some
question, and Ii is expected there will be
some opposition to this course Three weeks
ago a conference was held by leaders of the
party, at which the expression was that II
the silver element should name White for
governor, the gold democrats would be una
BILE to support him, lie wac considered the
most Objectionable candidate that the silver
element could put forward 1t was con-
coded by many that II Boies should be nomi-
nated he would be entitled to the support
of many sound money democrats. The nomi-
nation Of White in convention in which
Boes was hardly given any consideration at
all seems to have been the last straw with
many OF the gold democrats They regard
White as a populist, and say they will not
oupport him. On the other hand, many Of
their most active members question whether
the party will be strengthened by putting
ticket in the field at this time. and the
convention is expected to have a fight over

AhIes Took the Watch.

Officers Murphy and Anderson were given
long chase yesterday afternoon by re-
port filed by p d. Burke, a blacksmith, that
he had been robbed of valuable gold watch.
Burke left his vest lying on a chair in his
shop on Broadway and went on the street
leaving the shop open and tenantless. John
Ahles came along and took a seat in the
chair to rest and wait for Burke. Half an
hour elapsed and the blacksmith did not
show up, and then 1t occurred to Ahles to
teach him lesson. He took the watch and
after showing it to several people put it in
his pocket and took 1t to cigar store sew
eral blocks away. When Burke returned the
shop was open and vacant. He missed the
watch and called upon the police to help find
1t. The only person found that had seen
Ahles take it was a deaf and dumb boy, and
his description fitted a sneak thief who has
had some experience with the police and
who lives near Crescent. This man was in
town in the vicinity of the shop about the
hour the watch was taken and the police
learned that he was on his way home in a
farm wagon. The officers made a drive of
about ten miles in the effort to head him
off or find him. They returned to town un-
successful, to learn the true story of the
disappearance of the watch
