Tale of Woe Does Not work.

William Terrell, who gave the name OF
Jack Sullivan and claimed to be from Mon
tana when arrested late Monday night for
kicking in a plate glass door at the Kelley
house, 1912 South Main street, had a long
tale OF woe to tell Judge Scott in police
court yesterday morning. He said that for
two years he had lived in Oklahoma, but
the fates had been unkind to him and re-
Gently he removed to Iowa in search of
work, making the trip in a covered wagon
with his family. Reaching Corning with
out finding work, an old injury to his arm
commenced to trouble him so that he found
1t necessary to make the remainder Of the
Journey to Council BLUFFS by rail. where he
expected to get his arm treated, while his
wife and son drove overland. On reaching
this city he had met an old-time friend
who invited him to take a few drinks for
old acquaintance sake, and this, he said,
was responsible for his subsequent intoxi-
cation and "unseemly" behavior at the
Kelley house.
How soon do you expect your wife and
son to reach Council Bluffs % inquired the
Judge.
I'm ten days at the latest" replied Ter
.rell.
How much money have you," further in
quired the court.
mot a red cent answered Terrell.
well, then, 1 VIII fine you $40 and costs
and that will keep you safe in the city
lookup until your wife arrives to take care
OF you" was the decree of the Judge as he
called the next case.

Circumstances.

Rev. Cornelius Hover, a pioneer minister

few days ago rented apartments at the
Hover residence. SOC East Pierce street,

It is alleged in the information filed by
Mrs. Hahn that on last Saturday Rev. Hover
represented to George T. Miller, overseer
Of the poor, that Mrs. Hahn was In desti-
tute circumstances and in need Of fuel and
in this way secured a load Of wood from
the county.
According to the facts as alleged by Mrs.
Hahn in her complaint before Justice Bry-
ant, she had for some time rented apart
ments at the Hover home, for which she
paid weekly until the end Of the month.
Her supply Of fuel was running short, but
had not been exhausted, when a load of
wood swas brought TO the yard, and she
asked its price, telling the driver Of the
wagon that she would need some in a few
days. To her astonishment, she says. she
was informed that the wood was not for
sale and that 1t had been supplied by the
county for her benefit.
MIS-. Ham, VINO Insists she has always
been self-supporting. was indignant at be-
ing classed as a county charge and at once
demanded an explanation from Rev. Hover.
She alleges that he told her he ordered It
and that she should keep quiet, as at
would be all right" Not satisfied with the
explanation, Mrs. Hahn went to Overseer
Miller and from him learned tina other
supplies had been furnished her at the re-
quest of Rev. Hover, so Mrs. Hahn alleged,
and which she denies ever receiving. Mrs.
Hahn Immediately after the interview with
Overseer Miller left the Hover residence
and secured rooms elsewhere. To Justice
Bryant Mrs. Hahn said she filed the in
formation at the instance of the county
authorities.
Rev. Hover at once gave bond for his
appearance and will have a preliminary
hearing this afternoon. The aged and VEN
cradle minister Indignantly denies the
charges made by Mrs. Hahn and asserts
hat what he did was done in her interest
and on her behalf.
