An old gentleman of Genoa offered n
young man of that place 50 cents to take

place of execution the young man met
a farmer to whom ho sold the decrepit
pony for $1.CO , exempting the halter ,
which was to bo returned to the original
owner who had driven the pony for the
past ! 20 years. When the young man
reported what ho had done the old
gentleman was angry and proceeded to
take forcible possession of the animal

then it is alleged that he got up and
struck her a heavy blow in the fane ,
causing her to bleed from the month.
The boy was given a hearing before
Justice Eiseley this afternoon. At first
he denied the story and then claimed it
was accidental. It is probable that he
may Jbe kept in jail a few days as ho
has the reputation of being a bad boy
and it is hoped that a lesson will bo
beneficial. His mother runs a board
ing house and but for her it is probable
that the boy's punishment would bo
more servere. There were several wit
nesses to the transaction.
Lincoln correspondent of the Bee :
Gottlieb Neigenfind , the Pierce county
murderer , recently convicted of the kill
ing of his wife , bids fair to bo the first
man to be executed under the law en
acted by the last session of the legisla
ture , requiring that nil executions in the
state shall take place at the penitentiary
He was lodged in the state's prison sev
eral days ago under commitment to re
main until his execution , which is set
for March 13 , next. The honor of be
ing the first murderer to meet death un
der the new law is accorded to Neigen-
fiud by reason of the fact that Governor
Savage postponed the execution of
William Rhea from the 25th of last
April unto the first Friday in July , next.
Thus it is that Neigenflnd , will get nbout
four mouths the start of his fellow crim
inal and that Governor-Elect Mickey
will have the friends of twocondemmed
men bombarding his susceptibilities soon
after ho is inducted into office. The
commitment papers of Gottlieb Neigen
find disclose that ho was born in Ne
braska , is 28 years old , n farmer by oc
cupation , and a Lutheran in religious
affiliation. They also show that ho is
temperate in his habits and has not been

thusiasm. He went into one of the
dispensing places recently and called
for his drink. The bar tender , instead
of giving him the customary water
"wash , " filled his glass with alcohol ,
which looks exactly like water. The
fellow disposed of the liquor and
quickly followed it with the "wash" to
take the burn out of his month. He
hesitated for just a moment , long
enough to taste the side drink and then
qnickly handed the glass to the bar
tender with n request for an additional
dose of the "wash" . It never phazed
him and the joke was on the bar tender.

Hy the grading of the Thirteenth
Htreet road Bouth to the river , the
county has done Komething of benefit to
the city that the city government IUIH

driveway IUIH been constructedfrom
the eorpoiation line two mileu houth , in
the grading of which it WIIH nocoHHiiry
to remove the earth from diteheH on the
sides of the road. These will average
four feet deep and six feet wide , and UH
the road IB built on a decided down
grade , they will carry away an iin- (
nieiiHo volume of water. No better
highway IB to bo found in this section
(
of the county than the ono juut com
pleted , whorouH before work was com
menced on it this WIIH ono of the worst
nincon of road in tint nnnnfv. In iintn < t
placed , particularly near the U. P.
railroad track , it wan found noo-
eHHary to fill several feet , and the re-
Hnlt makes a very satisfactory drive

Cheap Grocery Scheme.
A smooth individual claiming to rep
resent a New York tea and coffee house
Is in the vicinity of Schuyler selling
groceries nt what ho claims very cheap
prices. During the last week ho has
succeeded in selling nbout $100 worth of
yrocories a day and when the time of
delivery comes the purchasers will dis
cover their mistake. The agent quotes
sugar , oil , salt , and stale articles at
prices far below the price they can be
purchased for at wholesale. If the
farmer concludes to purchase an item
he is induced to order other stuff at high
prices and the articles ho really wants
are left off the order. Instances have
como to the notice of some where the
order reads from two to four times the
amount ordered. When questioned
why oil at seven cents , sugar nt f 1 a
sack and salt at 90 cents a barrel are not
included in the orders , the agent ex
plains that this kind of goods comes in a
separate car and the orders go in sep
arate. One of his pot schemes is to
quote spices at 5 cents an ounce and
when the order is filled out the pur
chaser will discover that , where they
intended to get three ounces , three
pounds were ordered instead. One
farmer that gave the agent. an order
found that he had purchased three
pounds of nutmegs for $ -1.90. Ho will
have nutmegs to burn in his hard coal
stove this winter if compelled to take the
stuff when it arrives. Another item the
agent works on is coffee. Ho will
gaurauteo to duplicate any coffee offered
on the market at from five cents a pound
to half price less than homo merchants
sell it , ho has a special brand that ho is
endeavoring to push and in every in
stance ho has succeeded iu landing nn
order for his favorite brand at a fancy
price. The agent's success lies iu his
ability to induce the people to believe
that his firm is not in the business to
make money but to help out the dear
people. Look out for him. Sohuyler
Quill.
