Chief of Police M. Morrissy again
showed his fitness for the position by
taking tho two St. Louis toughs, Hen
ry J. Lewis and Charles Smith, out of

would have cost the city several dol
lars, after which they will be called
upon to clean the streets.

Chief Morrissey is the first officer

clear of this town. We hope the chief
will continue the trood work so au
spiciously begun.

Chattanooga, 'Ik.nx., May 21, UJS
dear mother: We arrived in
Chattanooga this noon, and passed
Murfreesborou?h a few miles back,
and can see Lookout Mountain and
Missionary Ridge. 1 am going up to
the top of Lookout Mountain tomor

sissippi, Ohio, Wabash and Tennes

ville we passed through mountains.
There are 35,000 men here at present
One soldier was killed and ten wound
ed in a wreck five miles from hero
We are going to have new equipments
soon. I think tne Doys got about two
bushels of flowers a piece on our way
had a erood time at Mt. Vernon, Illi
nois. Chickamauga Park is about 1
miles from here. We will whip h
out of the Spaniards when we get to
Cuba, and I wish we were going right
away. The people here dou't like the
northern soldiers a little b.t. The
towns around here are dead, and the
people are behind the times. The
soil is a red clay, and the scenery is
beautiful. Everything is different
down here Negroes everywhere
Stamps cannot he bougnt in camp, so

From the government rain gauge
record at the B. & M. depot wo learn
that during the first nine days of June
little over four and one-half inches
of rain fell; a record of rainfall never
before reached in this part of Nebras
ka. The ground is not only satura
ted, -but it is soaked clear to bedrock
the rain having been falling for two
months in frequent showers. Crops
are greatly damaged by the excessive
moisture, and the outlook for wheat is
not so good as it was at this time last
vear.
