ArroKt of Jacob Stowp, Who Killed
tlio Mierltrof Io ( nib fonnly in ISG5.
In lN')., Joseph Dranscomb, Sheriff
of Do Calb county was shot down in the
streets of Maysiville by a man named
Jacob Stotle. "Stofle was backed by
some fifteen desperadoes', who.detied all
attempts o f the citizens to arrest him,
and he escaped. .
A short tiina since it was ascertained
that Stoflo was in Humboldt, Kansas
atid the citizens of Maysviile determined
to capture him and bring him to justice.
Accordingly they obtained a requisition
from the Governor, and Capt. James
Kwart foluntecred to proceed- to llum
bolt on the dangerong mission.
Tn Kansas a Sheriif and posse were
detailed to assist him, and they proceded
to liumloldl. As soon as the object ot
their vi-it was noised abroad, a number
of Store's friends collected and attmpted
to prevent the arrest by, force. Capt.
Ewart and his party moved directly up
on their works, and desperate conflict
ensued, in which Stofle was wounded
five times and eventually captured The
serious nature of his wounds preventing
his removal, he was left in jail to await
his recovery, after which he will be
brought to le Calb county and held to
answer to tho charge of murder.
Capt. Ewart passed through the city
yesterday, on his return to Maysville.
To see his stalwart proportions and de
termined countenance, is to le convinced
that whatever he undertakes - he will
carry out. 'Vhen Stotle attempted to
intimidate James Ewart with pistols, he
manifested his ignorance of the character
of the man with whom he had to deal.

How to Kill Town.
Some one makes the following excel
lent suggestion : If you wbh to kili a
town, put up no more buildings than
you arc obliged to occupy yourself. If
you should have any empty building and
any one would wish to rent it, ask about
three times its value. Look at every
new comer with a scowl. Turn a cold
shoulder to every business man and me
chanic who seeks a home among you.
Go abroad for j our wares, rather than
purchase from your own merchants and
manufacturers at the same price.
Kef use to adveitise, so that persons at
a distance will not know that any busi
ness is being done in rour city.
A prompt and close observance of
these rules will ruin any town in two
years. Cli'cogo J2"itl Estate Joiirmd.
Important to Noltllfr
Any officer, soldier or marine can now
obtain a homestead of 1G0 acres. And
this tract fur every such ierson will be
double the value ot other selections made
under the homestead law. By an
amendment to the Army bill it is pro
vided that any person who served
honorably ninety dajs in either the
United States during the rebellion, aiid
has sine? remained Joya!, may enter a
quarter section along any of the lines of
railway to winch Congress has made a
grant of land, the selection to be made
from the even numbered sections. As
the minimum price of such lands is fixed
at $2 50 per acre, the homesteads thus
given to soldiers are of double pecuniary
value, besides being upon lines of rail
road, many of which are now open, and
from which other- pre-euiters are as yet
excluded. Real Estate, Hailroad and
Business G u idc.
That :t,iOO Klnuiter.
We have already alluded to the base
insinuation of the Platte Valley Inde
pendent, that Senator Thayer had at
tempted to bribe a member of the Leg
islature, by an offer of $3,000; and the
alleged reply of said member that he
was not for sa!e. The statement was
put forthin ambiguous phrase, on pur
purposc to allow room for equivocation.
Wc were authorized to make as broad
an 1 as explicit a denial as the cae admits
of; and nave since demanded, as justly
due, a substantiation of the charge or a
retraction.
We now learn that Gen. Thayer re
quested K. W. Arnold, Esq., of Grand
Island, to call and demand of the editor
his authority for the statement- We
have seen the reply of Mr. Arnold, who
called in company with Hon. II. A.
Koenig and Hon. John Wallichs. The
editor refused to give his authority, be
cause his knowledge came through a pri
vate conrcrsation. lie said that the
member did not reside in that district,
and tho offer was not made there ; but
he would see the parties soon and con
suit with them ns to giving their names.
Mr. Mobley also claimed that the arti
cle referred to dots not contain a specific
clinrge of an nttcmjit to bribe, a Stale
Si natnr, and does not state who t service
such State Senator is required to render.
It is meaner and baker because of its
attempt to produce a false impression
without couching it in frank and explicit
phrase. The statement was copied here
ami lias since been reiterated as if it had
been made without any su-h covert
dodge.
Any man's reputation may be stabbed
in this way. It is an utter perversion of
tho rights of the press to make it the
vehicle of such unsupported personal
slanders. The editor of the Independ
cut owes it to himself, to Gen. Thayer
and justice and truth to substantiate his
charge or withdraw it as publicly a; he
made it.. Omaha Republican.
Important Decision.
A decision in insurance of much import
anee to business men, was given at New
York within the last two or three days.
It was an action to recover 5000 on a
verbal contract of reinsurance, which the
International Insurance Company alleged
was made by the defendants, the Man
hattan Insurance Company, on Septem
ber HGtli, 1SG. It appeared that a
broker was instructed by the plaintiffs to
procure for them a reinsurance to the ex
tent of $5,000 on each of the steamers
Sheridan and Montgomerj-, then on the
voyages from New York to New Or
leans. The broker applied to the Man
hattan Insurance Company for the rein
surance, and, as he testified, they agreed
to t;ike the risks.
The marine manager of the defend
ants claimed that the agreement was not
to be considered as complete or valid un
til written applications were signed and
sent into the company, which was to
have been done on the afternoon of the
iyth. Before the applications were sent
in, news was received of the loss of the
Sheridan, and on application being made,
the defendant refused to issue the policy.
The judge charged the oral contract of
insurance was valid, if made, and the
ony question was whether the minds of
(he parties were agreed to the making.
The jury found a verdict for jth plain
tiffs for the full amount claimed, with
interest, making in all $0,424. Chicago

It may not be so quick a return, but it
is doubly sure. In the products of the
sod all wealth has its origin. The in
dustrious farmer must always have a
market for his wares. What he has to
bell are the actual necessaries of life, and
he who does not produce them must ob
tain theui ot him who docs.
Whatever may be a man's business,
however much money he may control,
lie must look to the tiller of the soil for
that which will sustain life. There may
be local derangements, but on the whole
there is of necessity a market for every
important product, and the producer
must always be sure of his living, at
least, as he is the owner of the land he
cultivates. In every department of life.
sunshine and shadow alternate, but if
the foundation ails the rum of the su
pcrstructuic is inevitable.
Tho possession of real estate is a sub
stantial capital. It ones title is good,
no thief can steal it, it needs no insur
ance, policy to make it safe, nothing
short of an earthquake can swallow it.
A good farm, with rich soil, judiciously
managed, whether its commercial gold
value go up or down, is still the source
ot a cood and comfortable livinff.-
Wiiatever else a man may possess, he
cannot afford to do without real estate
sufficient to make himself and family, if
he has one, a good home.
Recorder ITackett of New York has
decided that a man has a le.iral right to
set a trap-gun to catch or kill burglars.
Ihe case unon which this decision is
based has excit'.d considerable newspa
naner comment. A iruusimth had
placed a gun loaded with slugs in such a
phsition that any one opening his back
window would be f-hot. A burglar at
temptins to break into his shop was
instantly killed, and Mr. Agostino, the
trunsuiith. was arrested. But by the de
cision of Recorder Ilackett he has been
released from custody. As a conseouence
of this gun-taps arc in demand for use
in stoves containing valuables. And now
conies up another question for debating
societies Have we the moral right to
set these trans? In case of fire the
windows may be opened by firemen or
policemen. If a hrcman was killed in
tlie performance of his duty, would it be
justifiable? And if not, is the setting of
a trap which may produce this result
justifiable :
