has been postponed until Feb. 1, 1891. one
aim Of this meeting will be to find some
common ground by which the different
organizations may have some degree OF
unity with each other.
AS matters now stand there is really
no connection between the national
guards OF the different states. each being
an entirely independent organization.
Some degree Of unity is desirable ana
probably will come in the course Of time,
but at the present time there are man.
h;ndrances. In some states the national
guard is nothing more or less than po-
litical organization and some Of them
are very poorly equipped and poorly or
.anized Then there is an absurd feel
| in. of jealousy, born of ignorance. he
tween the National Guard and the regu
lar army All these things work aSains;
! the good Of tho national guard ard tn,
| coming meeting Of the association may
lin some degree eradicate them.

| zation and the painstaking work per

DEN RAlDED.

Some days ago complaint was made
by residents west of the city that
house of i'll fame, was being run in that
vicinity, down on the Rib river bottom
known as "Coon Hollow" and Justice
j. C. Clark, issued warrant for the
arrest of the inmates Sunday night.
Constables Theo. Steltz and Chas Hepp-
ner drove over to the place and arrested
everyone they found in the house at the
time. They were locked up in the
county Jail for the night and in the
morning appeared before Justice Clarke
where they gave their names as Ed.
Podoin, the alleged keeper, his wife,
frankie, Title Jenot and Minnie Ellis.
Two young men were also arrested but
having respect for their parents we will
not publish their names. The keeper,
with his painted maidens, asked for a
continuance for one day, which was
granted and they were admitted to bail.
When they appeared today they
asked for an adjournment>until next
Monday, which was granted. The two
young men have failed to secure bail
and are still confined in the county jail.
The people living in the vicinity
where the raid was made hoped that
they were rid of places of this kind
wnen the old house was closed short
time ago, but it appears that there are
others that will defy the law. Here
after no mercy will be shown these
people, as well as outsiders found with
in, and they will be jailed as fast as
they open their denS.

KIDNAPPER CAUGHT.

w j. Zahl, of Amigo, was arrested
in this city last evening, on descrip-
ton furnished by The officers of that
town who want Zahl for abducting two
children from their home yesterday
afternoon. These children were boy
p years of age and girl of Il. Zahl
has been married twice, and these are
his children by his first marriage. A
divorce suit is now pending between
himself and his second wife, who has
raised the children, and has been given
tie custody of them awaiting settle
ment of the suit. They were important
witnesses in the case, and it is sup
posed that he wished to place them
where they could not be found at the
time of trial and testify against him.
He broke into the house yesterday af-
ternoon, during his wifes absence, and
secured the children and drove to this
city and registered at the City Hotel as
Andrews. Policeman Max Stretch
learned of his arrival in town and made
the arrest. Zahl had a murderous look
ing revolver lying on table before
him at the time of the arrest, but made
no effort to use it. Sheriff AL Billings
came over from Amigo this morning
and, will takel his prisoner back home
tonight. Zahl is said to be worth from
$50, 900 to $4,000, yet he failed to fur
nish support for his wife and she was
compelled to seek aid of the city, and
she is now suing for divorce on the
grounds of desertion.
