T Men Nil a Whk Ii and fall it n JUUf.. Complaint was entered this afternoon by Martin KohnJl against two wn for stealing a watch. Marshal Murphy ar rested them, found the watch in their pos.so.vion, r-.ud took them before Re corder Cooper. Mr. Kohrell got his watch and refused (o appear again-t then. The facts are about as Ibl'.ows : Mr. Koh.-cll ws in at Morri-on V"' market, when the two men (we did not learn their name?) stole the watch, one of them taking it from his; pocket and passing it to the other, who ' lit uui." with it. When they were arrested a search was n-,ade and the watch found nicely stowed aw:iy in a trunk. They said they took it firaj.jke. Kohrell may f-;u-y that kind of joke;, but most pf..pL' would not.

A farmer named Lewis Young was trading at or.e of the stores en Main St. this afternoon, and like many other peo ple he left bis team a p.-drof fine horses standing iu front ol the store, without hitching. The locomotive Grafton pas-ed the foot of the street and frightened the it-Am. Mr. Young rushed out and en deavored to catch them. Ilecaucht the line, but was unable to check thorn, lie was thrown violently to the ground, the wheel striking the !de of l is head, and one wheel pa-sipg over his left hand and arm, giving kim .serere bruises, and leaving him aluiO.-t seiiselce-. for a time, lie was carried to a drug store and rec torution applied. An esainii.atioD proved that no injuries of a serious nature were sustained, but the chance lor a funeral are always good under similar circum stances.

But upon two or three ocea-ions recently the passeiicers lor this city, from the east, to the number of from forty to sevctvty-Svc, have been compelled to stay over night at Kast Flails mouth.

Wo have hardly time yet to. think of anything bat the late s'orta. Our oldest settlers a'finn that they have rever seen anything like it; rtnd if we are to judge from rer-uhsthc.-e t:erer has been such a storm in Nebra-k. The wind broke in a part of the front to Reed Broa. store and did siome damage by welting goods. A larce housj re cently erected by Mr. Shcpard a few miles west of this place was entirely de stroyed. Some other Lou-ses, partly fin ished, werw blown down, but it is too scon to hear all the particulars. Among them was a frame fer a larga house be ing erected ly Messrs. Howell, recently from Canada. Wheat and oats look well throughout this purl of the country, and most of the farmers will have their corn ground ready fir planting as soon as the weather will permit. In spite of all the threatened re-ist-ar.ee to the Herd Law, as the crops ad vance and need protection, the opposi tion cease their grumbling a:;d propose to tike tare of their stock, anJ remain as they have heretofore been law abid ing citizen. It seems hard si. f r.-t to those who have their farms fenced, to cithi r fence pastures or herd llmir stock ; and we do nt wonder that men who only look for present gnod, threaten to rcsbt the law. But the future results we are ss.t.i-ticd will convince the moat headstrong anti-herd law man that it was jn-t what we needed after all. The Building committee of the First Congregational Church have let the contract.- for the stone work, to be commenced the i)th of this month. The p'aus are of the latest style. When completed the Cburdi will cost two buud'ed and fifcy dollars. A gentleman from Illinois is in our town looking for a place to start a plow factory, and it is to be hnped that the town will offer euch inducement as wiil secure his location at this point. The Weeping Water affords ample power to run the machinery for mch purpo-es, and we should like very much to see this privilege improved. . The farm of J.

Thins i.oali. lu x tio-ii Korrain lluut Jlltuorf t vnalj-Sit(lern, Kailroafto, lc- Eiiitor Heuapd : Things are "tip" in this part of the "domain." Grass i well up, the river i v.p, wheat, oats and barley are np, and many things in our "truck patch" are up. But the best of ad is, there are about fifteen or twenty new pettier coming up the river daily, who take up new chums and put ap new houses on their claims. Farming has come to a stand still for about fen days, as everybody and his neighbors are off for buiiaUes. "Bos" is about ten miles southwest of Little Blue river and ihirty- fire miles koufh of Ft. Kearuev. M..;. Gen' Augur's mounted "boys in blue" gave the red skins their choie:-, to pass west or to the "happy hunting gro.ir.d;;," arid as the "vermin" preferred the west, we on the Blue are in for "right smart" of l.cf, fun and recreation, be fore corn pku.ilng. Oar "Spencer" ha brought down a pair of Antelope, and lots of other "frv" since the warm weather came north, and as we believe in the old adage that "all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy" we are off with the crowd for meat and fun. There are some very good claims yet vacant along the West Blue, with good stock and houae water which we wou'd be happy to show to some good man wishing for a home on the bnk.s of our beautiful river. Now isjust the timn to locate, as one can hive time to break and get m a good piaot;t of corn, uo i r- tatoes, vines, turnips, buckwheat, etc., for winter use. Strangers looking for claims in Fillmore county will always find our "latra string out," and aomo one at our "duj eut" to show them a good place to "set their st ke.-."
