BRUTAL ATTACK.
Alfred Arnoman , of This City ,
the Victim of an Assault ,
Which Will Lny Him Up for Some
Tltno to Como
Sunday afternoon quite n number
of Germans , principally farmers , wcro
gathered nt Himmorinan's boarding
house , nt Pappillion , nnd among oth
ers was Alfred Anicnmn , of this city ,
nitont of the Western liorso and. cattle
insurance company. While Mr. Ar-
ncman was quietly talking with some
of his countrymen , a crowd of railroad
laborers employed in the preliminary
work on the Missouri Pacific line in
Sarpy county entered the room. One of
those , an Irishman , named John
O'Loary , who was considerably intoxi
cated , came up to Mr. Arnoman and
inquired of him whether ho could get
insurance for him. Arncman answered
"yes , certainly , " and handed him a
blank to fill out. O'Lcary took the
blank , and tearing it to pieces , throw
the fragment ! ! on the table. Mr.
Arnoman said , "I can do nothing with
that ] now. " Upon this , O'Loary , with
out hny further ceremony , it is said ,
picked up n chair and struck Arne
man a heavy blow upon the
head , felling him to the floor ,
And cutting a gash three inches long
on the top of his skull. In falling
Ml Arnoman severely bruised
his face. Ho was assisted
to liia feet , though blooding
very profusely. A doctor was sum
moned at once and tlip scalp'was sown
up. Great excitement followed the
assault , and a general fight between
the Germans nnd Irish Hoemod inuni
nont. A warrant was at once sworn
out before" Judge Gow , nnd O'Lcary
was arrested and jailed , to answer to
the charge of murderous assault. Ho
wa admitted to bail to-day in the sum
of $000 , and bound over to np-
pear at the [ September term
of court. O'Leary to-day denies
all recollection of the matter , claim
ing that ho wiw so thoroughly intorfi-
catcd that ho did neb know what he
was doing. lie pleaded very hard
with Mr. Arncmann ( o withdraw his
charge , but as the oll'onso is n state
case , this could not bo done , and
O'Leary ' will have to stand trial.
Mr. Arnomann returned to the city
at noon yesterday , and looks as if ho
had been run through n thrashing ma
chine. Ho is n very powerful man
and his magnificent physique has
doubtless saved his life. A frightful
gash UDon his head bears evidence to
his .rough treatment , nnd if O'Lcary
doca forget the Occurrence , Mr. Arne
mann is likely to remember it for
some time to come.
TJnforttmnto Youth.
A'young man arrived in this city yes-
totday in a deranged condition from
low.i. IIo
was accompanied by n
friend who was taking care of , him.
The young'fellow wasnbout eighteen

COUNCIL BLUFFS ,
Nowa Notes From Over the
Uiyor.
Events of Interest to People Gen-
TIIK nr.um is nitinr.
The residence of W. W. Wallace
will add more to the improvement of
Council Bluffs , on account of its be
ing on the blufl's than half
, a I dozen
houses built on thu low lands.
The next term of the high school
will bo hold in the now Bloomer build
ing , on Willow avenue. The board
have decided that the old building is
too high for high school. What will
be done with it ? Perhaps Hon. James
F. Wilson will suggest some use it can
bo put to. Wo ought to have some
kind of an institution of learning hero
higher than n high school , and this
would bo a splendid location.
Hon. Jamso F. Wilson seems to bo
in great demand this year of 1881.
He spoke at Logan the other day ; is
to be here at the dedication of the
new Bloomer school building the 2Gth
inst. , and is booked for Hamburg
September 21.
L. F. Murphy , bookkeeper at Ofli-
cor . & Puscy'fl bank , delivers the ad
dress of welcome ut the dedication of
the new Bloomer school building. E.
E. Aylcsworth also speaks.
The Milwaukee it St. Paul road are
making Iowa soil fly in the vicinity of
Mr. Parks' mill , at Parksvillo. The
engineer says ho thinks the first train
will whistle down brakes at their de
pot in Council BlnfTa about January 1 ,
1881.
Sudgo W. 0. James has not left the
city , yet. Ho says that his partner ,
Aylesworth , 1ms seen ao much during
his eastern trip it will do for the firm.
There is nioro pleasure now for him in
remaining in Council Bluffa and
watching buildings go up.
The law allows the killing of prairie
chickens for n season. Sportsmen
should not bo too hard on the birds.
At the rate they are being slaughtered
the children will not oven know what
a prairie chicken resembles. The
general assembly should enact a law
prohibiting killing these birds n to
gether for ten years.
An accident occurred yesterday near
the Union Pacific bridge. The vic
tim was ; i very fine milch cow , owner
unknown. The cow was found mired
about a halfa , mile below the east end
of the bridge. She was completely
unable to moyo , and her hindquarters
were badly catoh by wolves. The cow
was ; alive yesterday. The animal was
white ! and red , with flowing horns.
Any one missing u cow o ( this de
scription will learn of her fate by call
ing on J. II. Marr , who lives about a
quarter of a milo east of the river ,
near Murr's lake.
That scdato justice/ court that trav
els around over Pottawattainio county '
a week or so prior to elections and
goes by the name of John W. Bairdi
has committed so many sins lately ,
politically ; that the Lord has con
verted him into a small , revised edi
tion of Job.
James Hopkins , of Missouri Valley ,
came down yesterday in company with
Ed March and Frank Dodson to take
a look ut the leading driving park in
the country.
Threo'young men irom Omaha cre
ated quite : i disturbance yesterday
near ( the Wnbash depot. It scorn's
they t , hnd purchased abater melon for
twelyocents.andasonoof them weighed
considerably more than the other two
it was a'grood that he ought to pay
onn-third nioro than they as his share.
This so mixed them up that the three
became ' excited and n general fracas
w'
was the result. There were no ar
rests made.
N. J. Burke , of Omaha , was in the
city yesterdaj' , a guest at the Ogdon.
Tin : B&K is certainly neb doing
Council JJlufls any harm. A trcutld-
man who has boon living in Omaha ,
and has been n constant reader of Tun
BKK , says ho wants to live in a wide-
awake city , so ho cnmo over last
week and purchased a residence up in
Glondalc.
There was a largo demand for now
potatoes yesterday. First hands were
paying as high as $1,40 per bushel.
Sweet potatoes are cheaper , about 3
cents per pound. Eggs still keep at
10 cents , nnd butter remains at 15
cents. Tomatoes are 60 cents ; grapes ,
4 _ cents ; wood , $5 to § ( i ; hay , $5 ;
corn , 55 cents.
The farmers any the com is not as
good as it appears. On examination ,
it ia found that only about two-thirds
of most of the oars are filled out. Of
course they will derive just na much
money from what they have , as the
price will bo higher.
The cnso of the state of Iowa vs.
Robert Johnson was called up in E ,
J. Abbott's court yesterday. Johnson -
son pleaded cuilty to the charge of

The CC.BO of the state of Iowa vs.
Charles Groves , pending for some
time before Justice Abbott , is
brought on for hearing before is
honor yesterday afternoon. is
cuso grew out of n disturbance at a
German picnic put in Lewis township.
On that occasion Graves , having no
doubt imbibed too freely of some
thing a little more nourishing than f | !
ice water , it is claimed assaulted
Adam Miller , who was attending the
picnic. Miller was pretty well pound
ed up and swears that Graves did it
with his little fist. Graves denied
this and says if Miller got bruised it
was done by some ono else. The tes
timony developed the tact that who
ever did the striping was moan
enough to wear false knuckles. The
court reserved its decision until to-
W. S. Rico , captain of Council . (

The case of Stcolc vs. Graves was
decided in Judge Abbott's court.
Graves proved an alibi. A young man
named Pool came into court and stat
ed that he could keep quiet no longer
and sco another man suffer in his
stead. Ho was the individual that
did the poundiiiK. L. Bothers had
sworn positively that ho saw Graves

little "high" Sunday , and driving ono
of Paul Bouquott's rips , she wanted
'to be way ahead of anything else 6n
the mad ; so she let him loose
nnd ho went up Broadway
lus if he had been shot from a cannon.
When ono of thu wheels struck an
other team Jennie really thought that
the whole rig started that way. By
the time she settled the damages she
had come to the conclusion before she
started out nest Sunday she would
decide not to bu such a high flyer.
There should bo some action taken
by the city counsel to prevent the depositing -
positing of rubbish of all kinds in tha
vicinity of the newly graded street"
leading to the trotting park. Any
person driving in that direction during
the present heated term can regale l.is
nose with about fifty varieties of odors ,
any one of which would bo sufficient
to cause the abdominal cavity to per
form all kinds , of gymnastics. This
matter for the credit and wealth of
the city should bo attended to at
