Soteldo and his brother A. C. Soteldo visited the AVashiugton Republican offite about 9 o'clock and A. M. Sateldo showed Mr. Barton the night editor a paper which he asked him to sign Barton refused, whereupon Soteldo clinched him and a scuffi ensued, both men drawing pistols. The 'younger Soteldo also drew and commenced fir ing. The elder Soteldo fell and Barton and the young Soteldo then clinched and struggled out on the sidewalk. A crowd, of course, assembled, Barton was put in a carriage and sent home wounded and the younger Soteldo was arrested and sent to the station house. On re-entering the room where the fracus commenced the elder Sotel do was found lying on a pde of ex changes shot in the neck at the base of the brain, and he died Sunday night. A posi-mortem revealed by the bullets that the younger Soteldo must have rircd the fatal bullet that killed his brother while endeavoriug to hit Barton. Barton is but slightly hurt. The Republican had attacked Soteldo's character and Soteldo had been writing adverse articles a.nd aid ing the investigation of the Star-route frauds. Soteldo was clerk of the sen ate committee on railroads. Says a prominent horseman, in giv ing his'opinion of Vanderbilt's mare, Maud S., whose great feat at Chicago put her at the head (and dubbed her "Queen of the Turf,", -In my opinion the time is not far distant when a two minute gait will be recDrded." It will certainly he the case if horsemen con tinue to use Kendall's Spavin Cure, as it limbers up the joints, removes all blemishes, and in fact has made a complete revolution in the borsa business. Nebraska Woman's Suffrage Associa lion. " The advocates of Woman Suffrage, in tie state of Nebtjtska; hrld their annual meeting at Lincoln commenc ing last week Wednesday Feb. 8th, and continuing three days. " The meeting called tcgctlier a large assembly of the representative women of the state, and the meetings are said to have pro ceeded with all the necessary parlia mentary formality, and with a knowl edge of the'proger usages of such ,a body, hardly to be looked for under the circumstances. -The officers for the previous year were Mrs. Harriet S. Brooks, Pres. Mrs.' Clara B. Colby Vice president at large; Mrs. Ada M. Bittenbender recording secretary. Gert rude McDowell corresponding secre tary; Lucinda Russell, treasurer. Mrs. Dinemoer, of Omaha, offered the following, which was adopted: m WnEKEAB, The educational interests of the state are and should be of para mount importance to women, there fore, Resolved, That the Nebraska woman suffrage association in annual conven tion assembled recommend and urge that all women qualified to vote at school elections exercise their right to its fullest extent at the coming spring election. In the discussion which ensued on this question it was stated in answeT to a queston that the qualifications under this law are the same for worn an as for man, the bill giving such qualifiations having passed the last session of legislature. .Thanks were extended to the Repub lican members of,., the LTnited Stales Semite who voted to anuoint a stand ing committee on woman's claims, The opening address of the president, Mrs. Brooks, had for a subject, Work, Wages and the Ballot," being an answer to Chancellor Fairfield's lect ure en work and wages.' Judge Mason and Dr. McXamara made most inter esting addresses; also Mrs. Yocum of Hastings, Mits Lydia Bell, and Mrs. Reed. A reception was given at the Commercial hotel by Mr. and Mrs, Imhoff under Che ausuices of th soci ety. Thursday the election of new offi cers took place and resulted as fol lows: Mrs. Ada M. Bittenbender, Pres. Mrs. Belle Bigelow, of Genoa, recording secretary; Mrs. McDowell corresponding secretary; Mrs. Russell, treasurer; Mrs. Colby vice president at large.

We invite opinions from our cot'nty correspond ents, on the feeling in their neighbor hoods. There is a school teacher In Crete who ought to be bounced and the soon er the better. This creature in full school demanded of his elaas, "Which is the best way to become president of the United States?" The question . of couise wtw natural, "low elected, Thia answer did not suit, the dominie 'then inculjat.d the following poison into the yotnic minds who are under his charge: -The beet way to become president is to be elected vice pi est dent and then hire some one to kill the president." Only this and nothing more. Th newspapers of Crete ought to root the fellow right out. Lincoln Democrat. . :..., ; : : ' If any teacher in this state is guilty of such an enormity as to instill into young minds such foulness as the sibove, the superintendent of that Dis trict should never let the sun set on Lis head as a teacher, and if he hasu't the sand to do it the State Superinten dent should look after the matter. A coat of tar and feathers warmly and promptly applied by . the parents sending to that school, would empha size the guilt of such teaching fitly. - Friend Gilbert's Reply. For the HhiiAld. : .

To be a little more explicit, Plattsmouth claims 0,000 in habitants. Weeping Water 1.000. Then there are Cedar Creek, Louisville, South Bend, and Greenwood, all towns in this County. After making a liberal allowance for over-estimates, I thought it safe to say there were 6,900 people in Cass County who had no interest iu Alliances. Am I not right? Yours, E, S. Gilbert. We are a good guesser. We guessed that C.OOO would be located largely in and around Plattsmouth. We do not agree, however, that they have no in terest in Alliances. Ed. ; Collecliou Notice.

On our way down to Union, on Fri day, we noticed from the road several new improvements that have ben made since we were down there a year ago. Mr. Jones has just completed a handsome residence near the Union Church. Mr. Lnglo has also put up quite a residence, which, though built last fall. Is not vet finished. John Chalfant has made an Improvement to his place by adding a new barn some thing that we have failed to noticn before.

Miss Belle Patterson, of Rock Creek has been down sick with the fever for several days. Mrs. Elisha Carroll has been ill, but is slowly improving. Some talk of sowing wheat soon, if the weather continues as it has been for the last week or ten days. Fall nlowine is in nice order for sowing wheat.

Union, Neb., Feb. 13, 18S2. Ed, Herald: As there has not been anything iu the Herald from this lo cality for a long time, I will write up some of the news. Mr. Wm. Slagle, of Kansas, was in this neighborhood last week, called here by the sickness of his daughter. wife of David Albin, who has been very sick, but is thought now to be out of all danger. Rev' Preston has been holding protracted meeting for the last two weeks in the Union Church; there has been quite an interest manifested, and some conversions to the Church. Miss Joanna J. Young closed her school last Friday in the Ervin school house. There was quite a gathering a goodly number from Three Groves and Rock Bluffs being present. Mr. Eddie Young with his violin, Mr. John Beadle with Lis accordeou, and Miss Luella Young on the organ, gave some choice music for all present. The dec lamations and dialogues by the schoo children were very interesting. Miss Allie Pell . of the first spelling class. Emma llugbsan, of the second, and Stella Ervin, of the third, got the priz es. All went home happy. ' I see that our greenback friend, Mr G. W. Shradef, has advertised his farm for sale. Guess he wants to leave for his health. Cass County is not very healthy for greenbackers; hope he may have good luck, and yo be elected lo some good ofuce. Mr. Jacob Bridenstine, one of the well-to-dy farmers of this locality, sold a part of his land not long since to Mr, G. W. Garrison, and will leave for Col orado with his family in a short time, where he goes for the health of his wife and son, who have been in very poor health foi some time. Mr. Bridenstine leaves many friends, and the M. E church, of thii placeHoes one of Its best members. Mr. N. G. Douge, our newly elected Justice of the Peace, is doing quite a business in his little store this wiater. He has not had any case before him yet; guess. this i3 too'nice a winter for la wing. Who ever saw such weather in Feb ruary as we have had for the last two weeks? ' ; ' L. J. Sooth Bend Pickings Febritart 13th. 1882. I seud you a few items from our Burg. Last week our boys went fishing to Santee Lakes and came home with one hundred and twenty-five Bass and Pickerel, from one and a half to five pounds, not so bad.' We learn the State fish Commissioners have purchas ed the Romine Fish Ponds in Sarpy County, with forty acres of land, with all the fish now in said ponds, for the sum of $2,000 ; they have now in ponds 1,600 German carp; 10.000 Trout have been planted from pends this season, and lsu.uuo. Laliiornia saimun; iney were planted in the principal creeks of the state, but it does seem to us fool ish to plant Salmon in streams where the native bsh cannot live, on account of the filth of streams from tho bog pens and the manure that our farmers throw ia the streams ;unless something is done our streams will soon be too fif thy for tad-poles, let alone game fish. Our Sabbath School has a new Or gan, of the Mason & Hamlin Manufac ture, sold by Mr. Pettee of Plattsmouth, bo having the kindness to give the school his commission, thereby reduc ing the price of the instrument consid erably; the children will long remem ber the kindness of Mr. Pettee.

The house was packed: crowded, jammed in every part, aud the entertainment gave great satisfaction. The selection of Sam Lucas to play Uncle Tom, was an ex cellent idea. Mr. Lucas is the only colored man In this country who has ever attained anything like deserved prominence as an actor, and he plays the part -of Uncle Tom better than any other man that has attempted it.

Of how many noble causes have the lukewarm and half-hearted drained me very iire-oiooui lo-aay the "worms ia the bud" of the Temperance Cause are those advocates of moderate re form; of a judiciary license law: of glasses of the nourishing ; beer; of Temperance as far as moral suasion which simply means Temperance con fi ed to talk. Those who neither drink nor at heart sanction the traffic, but are hileiu through policy, as well as those whose chief characteristic seems to be a pitiable inertia, are do ing more against the Temperance Re form than all the low sots and drunk ards crowding whiskey den and gut ler. The former lull others apathy ana repose, wniie cue latter, by snow ing all the horrors of alcohol, repulse ana rouse to opposion every pure- minded person.. : ; --.

Thev want a judic ious license law. It will make them respec table, and even. they want to be respec table. You are against the best citi zens, who alone build up our govern ment and educational institnlions-and sustain our churches; you are stand ing just where the enemy of Holiness and all his host of darkness rejoice to have you. And he who for votes will sacrifice virtue, and for gold will bow down to the "whiskey ring," who" per chance, witn one nana uplifted in prayer for the final triumph of Tem perance. with the other casts in at the polls a ballot reeking with the blood of bis fellow-men ; the one who, under standing all, ls-yec unwilling to come out bravely and nobly to the help of humanity, against- this one of the greatest evil? that ever breathed its deadly poison over God's earth, is a traitor to the best interests of his fel low men false, utterly . false, to his country and his.

Grapes are the only kind of fruit which is plentiful and cheap in this time of extraordinary droatti. A wet season is what the grape-grower fears. In dry weather the vines bear abund antly, and the fruit is large and well flavored. In California, where not a -cloud is seen, in the sky from Mey till October, the grape reaches its greatest perfection, and many kinds unknown n our Eastern markets aro cultivated from stocks brought , from Europe. There is not much variety with us. Tbe growers believe . it most profitable to make no "experiments, and stick to the standard sorts with which (he public is familiar. Upon our city fruit stands and in our markets the Concord ap pears first and stays longest. Early in tho ' season lb has the Delaware for a rival, but this delicious little grape, .with its red coat and its delicate aro matic flavor, is not a profitable bearer, -and it sells for about twice the price of (the Concord. Later comes tho Catawba, 'an excellent grape, but one too often Sicked . before its best qualities hare eveloped. 'Besides these three varieties there is rarely anything to be seen save the California grapes, which come 3,000 miles by rail, and are too costly for general sale. There are a dozen good varieties to be found in private vineyards that are rarely seen in cities, becnusa the men who make a business of raising grapes have found by experi ence that it pays best to stick to the kinds that are hardy and prolific, and that buyers do not need to be made ac quainted with, the quantity of grapes consumed annually for food in this country is enormous; yet one need not be very old to remember when a bunch of grapes was a rarity save upon the tables of the rich. How much has been done for American health and thus in directly for American civilization by the cheapen mg and popularizing of the smaller fruits during the past thirty ye.nrs can hardly be estimated. Boat of all of them is the'grape.,. It appeals to the esthetic taste a wall as to the pal ate; it is grateful to the eye as well as to lue stonittcu, ana at or o cents a pound is within reach ' of : tho leaaest purse. ... j - : : An American's View of French Pear barities. " Am living near tiio "Mairie," which is the Mayor's office. Every ward in Paris has a Mayor. Principal business seems that of marrvins:. Continual streams of weddings at the Mairie. B tween 11 and 12 o'clock daily seems the regulation time x r these ceremonies at l he Mairie by the Mayor. Cabs with wedding parties are continually driving into the court yard of the Mairie. French houses are generally so built as to allow carriages to drive inside, en tertainment for man and beast Also prevents ladies driving out from get ting wet when it rains. Crowd always outside the Mairie peepins: through iron bars of gate at we;!dinir show. Strange curiosity, pe culiar to all civilized nations, that of seeing: a 'man and woman swearing they'll love each other for life. Or just before they S'.vear they'll love each other all thoir days, or just after. It's a b-g contract to take in some cases, isn't it? Don't all speak at once. In Fi ance they ' have double-ender wed dings. The church marries the couple first, the republic by the Mairo at the Mairie second. Vtve la liepubliquel In law a marriage won't stick hero unless the republic marries. In religion it won't stick unless the church marries. Be tween courts of heaven and earth the French knots aro tied pretty fast. Le gal and ecclesiastical ceremonies are entirely independent of each other. To suit all parties the Church must clinch the nail at one end, the State at the other.'

In the street the brass and coppersmiths are ham mering away at their pots and pans, and further down, in the veranda of the rich man's houso, is the jeweler working rupees and gold roohrs into fair jewelry, gold and silver earrings, and round tires like the moon, bracelets aud tablets and noserings, and tinkling ornaments for the feet, taking his do-", signs from the fruits and flowers around him. or from the traditional forms rep resented in tho paintings and carvings of tbe great temple, which rises over the grove of mangoes and palms at the end of the street, above the lotus covered village tank. At half-past 3 or 4 iu the afternoon tbe whole , street is lighted up by tho moving robes of the women coing. down to draw water from the tank, each with two or three water jars on her head; and so, while they are going and returning? in sinsrlo file, the scene glows like' Titian's can vas, and moves like the stately proces sion of the Panathenaio frieze. Later, the men drive in the mild gray kino from the moaning plain, the looms are folded np, the coppersmith is silent, the elders gather in the gate, the lights be gin to glimmer in the fast-falling dark ness, the feasting and tbe music are heard on every side, and late into the night the songs are sung from the Ka rri ay an a or Mababarata. The next morning with sunrise, after the simple ablutions and adorations, performed ia the open air before the houses, the tamo day begins again. This is the daily life going on all over Western India, in the village communities of the Dakhan, among a people happy in their simple manners and frugal way of life, and in tbe culture derived from the grand epics of a religion in which they live and move and have their daily being, and in which the highest expression of their literature, art and civilization has been stereotyped for 3,000 years." , , Pearls on the Pacific Coast.

The destruction of tho petty princi palities of Germany w a gan to civ ilization and to de-encv. The great princes aped tho court of Fr.ncc Ev ery little prince and there were hun dreds f them, ruling over kingdoms which a man could almost walk around before breakfast imitate I tho great princes. All lived in extravagance. and somi! of them in cross sensuality. T22Sr subjects were expected to exhibit two virtues, namelr. to obey and to pay. The follies of some of thesa pet tv rulers vere so extravagant as to be ludicrous. One of them. Count Wil iam, furmed an artificial island and built a citadel UDoa it. It was elabora'elv construct ed, aocording to the science of military engineering. It and its garrison of three hundred gunners defended a po- taio-p;itcii, a- abbage-garden. and a small .observatory with a worthless tel escope in it. Another prince, one Gunther, ruled over seventy-five thousand men, women and children, who lived on sixteen ' ceoerraDhicai sauare miles, lie built a palace with three hundred and fifty rooms, and adorned each room with several clocks. His exercise was to wind up each clock. Tbe prince-was not without humor. Travellers passing throusrb his little capital were invited to te court thea tre. On one occasion, a Prussian ma jor was silting by the side of tho princo in his box, smoking a clay pipe, as the fashion was. The play was a dill one. "How do you like it?" asked the prince. .. Surpassing well, your sereno high ness." answered the major, with the courtesy of a courtier. I should bo .sorry not to have an opportunity of I serinsr the piece again. I vhen the play was concluded the prince shouted from his box, "Hey! hey there! Here s a Prussian major who wants to see the play again; act it through once more. And the tired pprfornieas were forced to repeat tho whole piav. Prince Gunther prided himself on his ability as a wrestler, and frequently exhibited his dexterity before his sub jects. Of course, his antagonists were to good courtiers not to let themselves be thrown. But on one occasion the prince met with his match. Seeing in his park a stout farmer. the prince cuallenged him to wrestle. The farmer accepted, and in a minute His Serene Highness was flung sprawling on the erround.- "I slipped" on a cherry-stone!" ex claimed the mortifie 1 prince, with an oat n, forgetting that it was not tho time of the year for cherries. The farmer intimated his willingness to try another round; but His High ness, no longer sereno, flew at him with doubled fists. The by-standers in vain shouted to the farmer to allow the prince to trip him up. But he, being no courtier, entered into the game of bsticuffs with zeal. At last. His High ness, with bruised nose and blackened eve, screamed to his guard, "OiT with hioito prison!" and the victor paid the penalty of wrestling with a rrinco by a forlmsrht s conhnement. Another of these princes li.ed so cx- travairantW that at last his whole in- c mc would not pay the interest on his erebls. Then he resorted to fraud in J53ler to raise money. He mo tzajred a forest of tivo hundred acres, which bad no existence. He pawned his villages bv making the school-children subscribe the names of their fathers : to bonds binding them with him to pay interest. At last, ins crimes became so enor mous that the Emperor Joseph II. of Austria bad him tried. Un his convic tion ho was sentenced to ten years' im prisonment. When he camo out of prison, he could afford to keep only one horso. One day bis solitary attendant announced that there was no hay in the loft and no money in the purso. Well, well," answered the prince, 'tako-out the horse and give it a mouth ful of fresh air. - Do you play nolo? ' No; but my brother Rol!o plays polo and can beat you . all hollow, swallow?
