was renewed. Rahfeld, acting on the
spur of the moment, proposed that
they should be married without letting
anyone know of it. Miss Walters at
first demurred, but finally consented.
The pair obtained a carriage and
drove to Papilllon, Is miles away, with
Lewis Bernard, a friend. There they
obtained a-Hcense and were married
BY Judge Wilson. They returned to
Omaha the same afternoon and after
parting with her husband the newly
welded wife came across the river and
returned to her home. Hei relatives
supposed she had been shopping at
Omaha and asked no questions.
The secret weighed upon the young
Noman after the romance wore o..
She began to regret that she had acted
so hastily, but could not muster up
courage to tell her parents and ask
their sympathy and forgiveness. Mr.
and Mrs. Walters had been more or
less opposed to Rahfeld, though they
say they would have given their con
sent had their daughter informed them
of her intention to marry him. They
supposed Miss Daisy's favor was be-
:tcwed in another direction.

PARADE OF BATHERS
SHOCKS NEW WORKERS
Residents Complain to the Police Of
Men and Women in Streets in
Close Fitting Suits.

New YOrk.-Residents of Bath Beach,
and especially those living in the vi
cinity of Cropsey avenue, are reused over
what they term the "unmitigated nerve"
of women boarders in the cottages and
hotels along the thoroughfare, in pa
rading to and from the beach along the
side streets in close fitting bathing
suits and often accompanied by men
wearing tights.
This part of Bath Beach is the home
of many wealthy business men, and they
have complained to the police, asking il
a remedy cannot be applied to stop the
nuisance.
Police Captain Summers, who has
charge of the police station, has received
the following letter from well-known
resident:
Dear Sir: would like to call your
attention to the very indecent habit of
men and women going through the
streets of Bensonhurst in an almost nude
state-big. husky men parading with
tights, exposing their supposed manly
forms; and also some very homely-
faced women, who parade up and down
in theiN bathing suits.
Now, l hope you will put stop to
this offense, as the offenders are evil
IDENTIFY boarders, who only come here to
stay for few days, and who, am sorry
to say, cause our own modest wives and
children to feel ashamed to be forced
to enduresuch sights"
Last year a similar complaint was
made to the police, and it resulted in q
discontinuance of the nuisance. This
year it is very common sight to see a
party of young women walking along
the side streets to the beach, clad only
in bathing suits. Many walk for sew
erel blocks to reach the water from their
boarding houses and hotels. Persons
sitting on their verandas and piazzas are
compelled to endure this sight almost
continuously all day. and they have ap-
pealed to the police to have it stopped. :

4 MAD BULLDOG
KILLS BABY GIRL
THE VICIOUS BEAST HAD BEEN
A PLAYFELLOW.
SHOOK HER LIKE A RAT
Bullets Killed the Brute, But His
Terrible Fangs Held Unmerci-
fully to the Little Victim
Little One Torn to Pieces.

ChlcagO.-UncOnsciOu that there
could be peril for her in the dog which
had been her playfellow since she
could creep about the floor, Yvenne
Davis, IS months old, toddled bravely
in pursuit of rubber ball with which
she had been playing in her fathers
yard at 1912 Otto street. Her life was
the penalty.
The ball rolled near where "Jack,"
heavy-headed bulldog, lay crouched be-
meath cherry tree, a stout chain linn
iting the circle of his movement. The
baby's thoughts were busy on the ball.
She did not notice how the wicked lit
tie eyes, red with rage, watched her.
Yvonne came nearer and stopped for
the ball.
With a spring like a wild animal
the dog was upon her. The massive
jaws closed with terrific force on the
baby's head and bore her to the ground,
where the brute tore at the tiny form
as if mad. Despite beatings showered
on it and bullets fired into it's body, it
chung to it's prey.
Enraged by Boys.
At the eighth bullet the Infatuated
animal fell lifeless, but an iron bar
was necessary to pry loose the cruel
white teeth from their death grip. In
ten minutes the baby was dead, passing
away while a physician worked over
her.
The dog, which had been purchased
by Leopold Davis, the father, about the
time little Yvonne was born, had been
enraged during thu day by boys who
sought to steal cherries from the tree
to which he was chained.
Yvonne had been left in the care Of
her two sisters, Jennie and Albertina,
Is and 13 years old respectively. The
father was away at work and the
mother down town shopping. The two
sisters were in the house. Boys of the
neighborhood saw chance to get at
some balf-ripe cherries in a tree near

TOLD OF NEW YORK WOMAN
The Gotham Police Are Investigate

in Mott Street-What Start
ed the Investigation.

New YOrk.-There are many ways Of
getting living in this city, some per-
sons even working for it, but the most
amazing of them all was partly unfold
ed in the Tombs court recently, when
it was alleged there was regular es-
tab!ished business for s''losing babies"
here, the headquarters of the gang be-
ing somewhere on Mott street. Detec-
tives were searching for woman on
that street.
For long time the managers of
children's societies have been con-
WINGED that the losing of babies has
been conducted systematically and
they will be both surprised and pleased
if the present case does not develop
the fact that losing is only an Incl
dent. That anyone would care to part
with an infant is something hardly to
be believed by the normal mother, but
for many months the officers of the So
cieties have found too much system ir
the abandonment of babies not to be-
lieve there was regular trade in it.
