The sheriff received a letter Wednes
day from C. F. Hurburgh, sheriff of

the arrest of one, E. O. Jackson, alias
E. N. Roberts. The man is described
as 23 years of aire, ft feet, 2 inches in
height, weight 100 pounds: wears his
hair long and parted in the middle,
smooth face, stoop-shouldered. The
man generally works on farms, but
sometimes tires an engine on the rail
road. One of the striking coincidences in
connection with the marriage of Sen
ator Clark of Montana is that the
"snubbery" of so-called society in
Butte is treated to a dose of its own
medicine. Not many years ago the
woman who is now JUrs. Clark was
mercilessly snubbed by the "smart
set" at Rutte. Now that she is the
wife of the millionaire they are try
ing to pay their respects to her. She
remembers those who mistreated her
when she was poor, and now refuses
to receive such into her home, al
though some of them are the wives of
leading business men who are wealthy.
We glory in her spunk, and hope she
will give due consideration to young
ladies of her city who are poor but
worthy.

ASSAULTED AND DEATEN
BY HIS NEIGHBORS
Exciting Experience of Rack Bluffs Far
mer this Murning.
TROUBLE STARTED OVER LAND DISPUTE
Sara .Smith, a farmer living on the
outskirts of Hock Bluffs, was attacked
at an early hour this morning by Gug
Patterson and his brother and beaten
almost into insensibility with the
heavy end of a whip.
Smith came to Plattsmouth as soon
as possible and swore out a warrant
for the arrest of his assailants. Sher-
II McBride went out with a buggy
this afternoon to bring the accused
man and boy in for a hearing.
Smith's farm lies west of the public
square, rue house is just one ojock
from the square. The Patterson house
s only a few hundred feet from the
Smith place. Smith has several lots
adjoining the land which he farms.
These he acquired by tax title and
bey are the cause of the trouble.
This morning Smith was cultivating
the corn in the field in which these
lots are included, when he was set up
on by the Patterson boys. Guy Pat-
is about twenty-one years old. lie
was armed with a butcher knife and
the heavy end of a whip. Following
iim was his brother, Bob, a boy of
about twelve years. Smith did not
see his assailants until they were near
ly upon him.
Patterson's first words, as reported
by Smith to a Journal reporter, were:
"I) you, I'm going to kill you."
Patterson then struck at Smith
with the whip. Smith had the lines
around his back and was between the
handles of the cultivator. IMsengag-
ray, where Mr. Anderson and Hugh
are contemplating purchasing a farm
for Hugh. Mr. Anderson is one of
Mills county's most substantial far
mers and we trust a deal may be made
whereby Mr. Anderson, jr., will be
come a resident of Cass county. Mr.
Berger is a real estate agent of Glen-
wood, and has many relatives in this
county.
ing himself as quickly as possible, he
grappled with Patterson for possession
of the knife. Patterson then dropped
the whip in order to take hold of his
knife with both hands, calling at the
same time to the smaller boy to pick
up the whip and "Beat his head off."
The boy picked up the whip and
struck Smith with all his strength,
laying on the blows thick and fast on
head, neck and back while Smith was
unable to protect himself.
Meantime the horses attcahed to
the cultivator had run away. They
made for the gate and then came down
the road. Seeing them coming, Smith
threw off his assailant, leaped the
fence and caught his team. lie had
been shouting for help and his son,
Kay, arrived on the scene and also Mr.
Will Baker and Mrs. Will Baker. Up
on these people Smith called to wit
ness the weapons in the hands of the
Patterson boys.
Smith is a man of about forty years,
nclined to stoutness. His back was
one mass of thick, red welts, a livid
line ran across the right ear and side
of the neck and the hair on the top of
his head was clotted by blood from a
wound. The elder Patterson boy is
of much lighter build.
Since the above was put in type
Sheriff McBride has returned with
Guy Patterson, for whose arrest the
warrant was sworn out. But we have
not learned the time of his preliminary
examination. A. J. Graves is the de-
fendant's attorney.
W. M. Ossenkop and Lee J. Mayfield
were down from Loisville last evening

Place to visit her sister. She will re

from Omaha today with her mother,
to see II. E. Becker about the district
school west of town. She just closed a
successful yearof school near EmersS-,
Iowa. The ladies gave the Journal a
pleasant call while in town.
Five membersof the Hepzibah Faith
Missionary Association held an open
air service at the corner of Fifth and
Main last evening at 7 o'clock. An
audience was rather shy about gather
ing but the ardor of the apostles is not
dampened by such small circum
stances. Little Miss Fern McBride returned
from Nehawka where she had been
visiting She brought home a very
choice selection of flowers in form of a
beautiful bouquet, given to her by
Mrs. C. D. Keltner, which she in turn
