Hawley & Douglas, this city,
having procured the right to manu

the name given to Brown's patent
bed spring are supplying the people
with this best of all bed springs. The
editor of this paper having purchased
and used some of those springs oan
vouch for the perfect satisfaction they
give In every respect. These springs
commend themselves as the best and
just what the people want, for the fol
lowing reasons : They can bo adjust
ed to any slat bedstead regardless of
width or length, and any person can
take tbem from one bedstead and
place them on another in a few min
utes. The bed can be made harder or
softer at will, by simply leaving off
or putting on springs. It iB noiseless
and elastic, makes a Btnooth, even
surface for the mattress to rest upon
with no ends to chafe and wear out
the bedding. We find it by far tho
best spring we have ever known, and
costs only five dollars to fit out a bed
stead. Call on Hawley &DougIrrff and
see the springs and get further in
formation concerning them.

Last Friday Sheriff Black re
ceived the following :
Red Oak, Iowa, May 2, 1879.
To tho Sheriff of Brownville, Ucb :
Dear Sir: There is a man in your
town by the name of C. Q,. Bolleck,
he goes there by the name of Andy
Bercer. he Is a shoemaker by trade,
be is agoodlookingyoung man black
hair and blaok mustache. The crime
heisoharged with is seduction under
the promise of marriage. Arrest him
and telegraph meat once and I will
come on first train. He will not re
sist you, but he will get away from
you if he can. If you get him hold
him at all hazards," and I will Bee
that you are paid for your trouble.
Yours.in haste,
A. W. Harding,
Sheriff.
Upon receiptof thia, Deputy Sheriff
Lannon remarked, "I can put my lin
ger on that fellow I know right
where he is at Nemaha City at work
in 'Squire Crother's shoe shop." On
Saturday evening the sheriff and his
deputy went down to Nemaha, arrest
ed a young man named C. A. Stevens,
who has been at work in Mr. Cro
ther's shoe shop since some time in
the winter. They brought btevens to
Brownville, put him in jail, tele
graphed the Sheriff at Red Oak, and
Monday noon deputy sheriff J. S.
Cook, from that place, arrived in our
oity. Deputy Lannon Immediately
conducted the Red Oak Sheriff to the
jail, to see if they had the right man.
When they met, Lannon introduced
officer and prisoner. The officer said;
"How are you Bolleck?" Stevens
answered, "What did you call me?
That is not my name." Officer Cook
said he had not seen the man they
wanted often enough to make him
positive in identification; said Ste
vens resembled Bolleok, but he had
doubte as to their being the same.
The lather of the seduced girl being
then in Nebraska City, Cook tele
graphed him to come down and see if
they had Bolleck or not. The old
gentleman answered that he could not
come, and to bring tbn primmer op
there. Stevens being perfectly wil
ling to go, on Tuesday morning he
was taken up to the City. When the
girl's father and the prisoner met
they utterly failed to recognize each
other. The old gentleman said "that
is not Bolleck. let him go free." And
Stevens was liberated. We met Ste
vens at the Brownville depot Tuesday
evening as he was returning to Ne
maha City. He said he thought it
pretty hard on a man to bo arrested,
jailed, and rushed around over the
country in charge of sheriffs, like a
felon, because he happened to resem
ble in some way some other man.
And so think we, but it was simply
au unfortunate and embarrassing cir
cumstance that some times happen
with the most careful officers. Sher
iff Harding's description of Bolleck
tallied so perfectly with the appear
ance of Stevens, even to the business
they followed, and being directed
here for Bolleck, that it would have
misled any officer on the alert for evil
doers.

By the new time table for the Ne
braska Railway, the road from Ne
braska Cityto Nemaha City is called
the "Brownville Branch," and it will
now takeour days to make the round
trip from Brownville, Peru, or Nema
ha City to Lincoln. A more expedi
tious way to visit the capital would be
with a team. We presume the best
way would be to cross the river and
go up to Omaha or Plattsmouth on
the K. C. St. Joe& C. B. road, thence
to Lincoln. To go up on this side you
leave Brownville at 7:25 in the morn
ing, and with lightening speed you
are hurried through space at the rate of
eleven miles an hour, arriving at Ne
braska City at 9:25 a. m., the same
day. There you have to lay over un
til 7:30 next morning, when away you
go again on the wings of the wind
11 miles an hour for Lincoln, arri
ving thereat 12:30. Returning east
ward you leave Linorln about noon,
arriving at Nebraska City at 0:45 p.
m., just an hour and forty-five min
utes after the train starts for Brown
ville; so, if yon have no other way to
get home, you must lay over again in
Nebn&ka City until the following
evening. Is not that a beautiful ar
rangement? Peru, Neb., May 1, 1879.

Rook Port Journal: We see it

the Quincy,- Missouri & Pacifio rail
road is to pass Into the hands of Jay
Gould. If this is true it doubtless in
dicates that the road will be pushed
right through to the Missouri river
without delay.
Mrs. White returned Tuesday

The ladies should all call and see'her
new good when they arrive as she iB
sure to have something to please all.
The reason why the Omaha Re

NEMAUa CITY LOCALS.
Weather has been delightful for
several days.
We are seeing strange faoes every
day on our streets looking out for
business.
The new Elevator juet about fin
ished is a useful ornament to our oity
and is conceded to be the most com
plete structure of the kind within
the state and is superintended and
managed by Mr. Henry Carae one of
the most efficient grain buyers -that
has ever opperated in our city.
The farmers have been bu9y for
the past week planting corn, and if
the season proves to be a favorable
one there will be the largest amount
of wheat and corn that has ever been
raised in the County.
The Johnson House has been for
the past two weeks crowded to its
fullest capacity. .
Mr. J. S. Minick is erecting a
nice large business bouse on 1st street
below the Johnson House. Captain
Minick is full of enterprise and we
need a few more men just like him.
Mr. J. P. Crother is prepared to
furnish you with a3 good custom
made boots or Bhoes as Brownville,
and at as reasonable terms. Give
him a call. He is also prepared to put
up harness.
Meeting every Sabath afternoon
in the Episcopal church.
Good Templars meet Monday eve
as usual. However some of the mem
bers have recently fallen from their
pledge.
Our herder commenced Monday
with sufficient grass for stock to do
well.
If yoa want all your grain is worth
and your load dumped quick go to the
new elevator as they are now prepar
ed to handle wheat and shelled corn
and will, no doubt, be prepared to
dump ear corn next week.
Wm. Drain carries a full line of
dry goods and groceries and is dupli
cating Brownville prices.
A man by name of Stevens was
arrested in our city on last Saturday
evening by SheriffBIack and Deputy
Lannon. We understand for some
crime committed in Iowa, Some of
our young Ladies shonld be careful
about cultivating the acquaintance of
strangers without first learning their
oharacter.
Beatrice Express: Anew style
of traveling fraud is abroad in the
land, and he is selling fence wire.
He has been at work in this county,
and his plan is as follows: He finds
responsible man in a precinct whom
be appoints as an agent for the sale
of the wire. For th e privilege of sell
ing the wire the agent pays a certain
amount or gives his note, and agrees
to buy wire of. the company at the
rate of about nine cents per pound.
Of course he is " stuck," for the wire
is poor and he pays a eent moro per
pound for it at wholesale than he
would have to pay in the Beatrice
hardware stores if buying at retail.
We cannot see why an intelligent
farmer will go into suoh a one-sldod
scheme, but lots of them do it, and
invarihly come out losers. All such
swindlers ought to be given a wide
berth.
Beatrice Express : An Italian
begger woman who raed up the
spare nickels and quarters in Beat
rice last week was probably as great a
fraud and imposter as ever struck the
State. It seems that she bad a hus
band who keptat a respectful distance
in the background while she was play
ing the sympathy dodge, and after
"doing" the town they started for the
next place with a good two-horse
wagon and outfit all their own. They
are professionals, and Bhould be given
the "cold shoulder" or a few hearty
kicks.
Orohard & Beari, Omaha's lead
