Several days ago a man named Cook, a tailor, formerly of St. Louis, and employed in the tailoring establishment of Parkins & Sous, mysteriously disappeared and no clew to his whereabouts was obtained un til today. A party f negroes came in from the Rondo district, reporting to the ollicial that a madman was in that neigh borhood, concealing himself in c b.rusii until becQuiinjj "tjyn'gry fur food, when he would emerge therefrom with sticks and attack with fury eyery one observed by hi hi. He has made violent attacks upon defenseless women and children frightening many "away from their homes, and an effort has been made to capture him but up to date he has nqt l-eea caught, A Priest Arrested in M.exicft. Moxteuey, Mex.icp, June Yester day Iev. Futher Lorcno Maurol. " Brownsville priest, came '"" . . . , 1 . j this side of the- river to - , . . T1 , . celebrate mass. He rolled ..is black cassock up about his waist and attracted no attention until on his retrn he stepped in the ferry skiff, and let his cassock fall, when a vigilant policeman pounced on him and arrested him for an infraction of the Constitution of 1857 and the reform laws, which makes it a severe offense for a priest to appear in the streets in his robes. Th reverend father was carried back to the city and jailed, but late in the afternoon, through the influ ence of a number of prominent ladies and gentlemen, was released, Dr. Diaz Gutierrez responding for him, and today a fine of $ 25 was imposed and paid. The affair has created quite a ripple of excite ment on both sides of the river. Union in Brief. Here are a few items from union once more. We don't come very often but give lots of news when we d cme. Farmers are very busy plowing corn this nice weather. Wc saw the county comissioners in town Monday; expect they were down looking out a location for the county seat.

Charles Olsen Skipped Witnin a Half Hour After Bolng Wedded. The bastardy case brought up against Charles Olsen commenced before Judge Stiles May the 25th, culminating "June flth by the parties appearing before his honor, L. C. Stiles, Esq., with license in hand anil asking to be joined in wedlock. The ceremony was performed in the Judge's latest and most approved Htylr, in the presence of several ladies and gen tlemen, and the bride and groom depart ed seemingly happy. But alas ! the de ception of unkind and unfeal ng mortals cannot alwmvs be accounted for. No sooner had the wedded pair left the sanctimonious bar of justice than the hard-hearted groom tore himself away from her whom he had first allured and ruined, and that two after ouly a half hour before he had solemnly promised, in the presence of a brother, frienda and witnesses, to take her for hu lawful, Wedded Wife, to love, cherish, protect hud care for her In sickness and in health, as long as they both should live. The perfidy of a gay deceiver, a rakish, rap ish, ldstful, carnal wretch, one whose heart is hardened against his Creator and his brother man, should be punished to ths fullest extent of the law, and h& ie kept within the prUou walls until his heart ia softened and his carnal natuie properly subdued. It is a sad thought for the rising generation of girls to poiir der upon. Look out for the silver tongued gay deceiver. Drowning Accident. Giieknwoop, June 13. Special to the IIeiiai.p. Ve-terday afternoon about 2:30, a very sad drowning accident oc curred at this place. A young man by the name of Henry Ewing had gone in swimming in Salt Creek, about one-half mile west the of town and was drowned. He is reported as being VCi'Y ndus trious iiftd epr;;en"a siirji of a young man and iav(eh respected by all who knew him. His many friends were horror stricken when they heard of his terribly sad fate and the whole community is very much grieved over the sad affair. Not being personally acquaintey with liiir-, we can not give ns poo1 wi. nvcovnt of f his good r,cU and sp,ea,k as well of laim in a good many ways as we other y;i would dp., but from Yl,ia ye have, hp&ril ot the yov,ng lVnM, wo ai-o piow ed to S(eak vevy highly in l,s - , . . j ... wna r. i . t i, -' - . .uvr.r His body ... at 5:45 yesterday evening. He came from Illinois last spring, and has, since that time, been running a billiard room here. He was 22 years of age. The Collapse of the Morning Mail. The time the old Morning Mail went to the wall, we think it was some time in January, 1886, it was a cold winters night, the air was full of snow, when the climax was reached. Mr. W. L. Brown was then proprietor of the paper with Joe Fairfield as managing editor in charge. Mr. Brown had come down from Lincoln where he had removed. He came down on the evening train, and was met by Mr. Fairfield who, in his usual blank manner, says, " Brown, them fellers haye quit work again." Says Brown, '-What is the matter is there no copy on the hook ?" "Matter! t 1," says Joe, " the- hook is full of matter the matter is the d d fools have struck, and wont work any longer without money, and I can't make collections enough to pay them or my self." And so. that winter's night, an other bright light went out, never to brighten the pathway of republicanism again. The above shows conclusively that the only way a newspaper can be run success fully, is for the patrons to pay up, and we give this as a gentle hint to those who are in our debt. County Seat Question. The unterified Weeping Water anarch ists are again urging the question of the county seat removal. They have we un derstand, already commenced to get up their petition to present to the commis sioners, in order to get it on wheels; and then will come the election, and it will tako two thirds of the voters of Cass county in favor of the same to remove it. Our poor deluded brethern of the village forget that Plattsniouth City proper polls one forth of the entire vote of the coun ty, and with the other help the city cau secure, the movement, as all others have, will fall to the ground a failure. Eight Mile Grove Items June 12, 18SS. A heavy rain sprinkled with consider able hail fell here last night. Our young corn, which was so badly in need of rain looks better today. The majority of the farmers around here have got their corn cultivated over the second time. Esquire Morrow and W. Jenkins built and put in the frame of a new bridgi over the nvck west of the M.

Its cleanli ness, beneficial effects on the sealp, and lasting perfume commend it for mii versaf toilet use. It keeps the hair soft and silken, preserves its color, prevents it from falling, and, if the hair has become weak or thin, promotes a new growth. "To restore the original color of my hair, which bad turned prematurely grav, I used Aver's Hair Vifior with en tire" success. I cheerfully testify to the Efficacy of this preparation." Mrs. F. H. David sou, Alexandria, La. I was afflicted some three years with scalp disease. My hair was falling out and what remained turned gray. I was induced to try Ayer's Hair Igor, and in a few weeks the disease in my sealp disappeared and my hair resumed its original color." ( Rev. ) S. S. Sims, Pastor U. B. Church, St. Berniee, Ind. " A few years ao I suffered the entire los-fof mv hair from the effects of tetter. I hoped that after a time nature wouel repair the loss, but I waited in va.u. Many remedies were suggested, none, however, wirli such proof of merit as Aver's Hair Vigor, an I I began to use it. The result was all I could have desired. A Towth of hair soon came out all over mv head, and grew to be as soft and heavr as I ever had. and of a natural color, iiml firmly ef." J. H. Pratt, SpofTord. Te'xas.

Horses of this kind, if not wanted for sporting purposes, can do more general work on a farm, on account of their extra nerve power, than unwealdy draft horses, and can go to town or to meeting in one half the time, and time is money.
