News from Loudon uuder date
of tho 10th states that it is being
reported that Jellalabad has been
evacuated, but Gen. Roberts having
"hutted" a part of his force, Piewar
is feeling his way cautiously for fear
of an ambuscade, iu the direction of
theShutergarden Pass. The moun
tains arc now snow-capped, and
wiutcr is settling down in the val
leys. The British troops are mov
ing around and the Afghans flying
iu disorder.
Dr. Mary Walker was arrested
the other day iu New York city while
walking the 6trcels dressed iu pan
taloons, and taken before the proper
officer who expouded tho law in this
wise: As her pants were not worn
for the purpose of disguise in order
to commit a felony, ho ruled that
her wearing them did not come
within the Statute prohibiting wo
men from attiring themselves a3
though they were men. So she was
discharged, and the officer warned
not to arrest her again. She threat
ened the officer with a prosecution
for illegal arrest.
At the announcement on the
morning of the llth inst. that Sen
ator Blaine would speak on his res
olution relative to the southern
election frauds, a dense crowd of
spectators filled the Senate chamber.
Nearly all tho members of the
House were present. Every vacant
place on the floor was occupied by
them. The cloak rooms of the sen
ate were filled with ladies. The
speech of the great statesman was
brief, candid, firm, and abounded
with strong arguments that some
thing must be done to prevent a
repetition of the frauds.
The murderers of Charles Slocum,
at Nebraska City, Henry Jackson
and Henry Martin (both colored)
had been tried and found guilty of
murder in the second degree, were
on the morning of the 10th inst.
taken from the jail by
citizens and hung to a tree where
the bodies were found in the morn
ing. It is stated that they both
died protesting their innocence.
The citizens were orderly and de
termined. They overpowered the
jailor, battered down the jail doors,
and broke into an iron cage where
the prisoners were confined. Win.
Given, the other prisoner and upon
whose testimony Jackson aud Mar
tin were convicted, was taken on
the same day by a strong guard to
the penitentiary.
In an other column mention is
made of the arrest of the supposed
murderers of Stevens, and now
comes the sad intelligence that while
the sheriff aud a posso of men were
taking the prisoners, Kctchum and
Mitchel to the county seat for trial
the party was overpowered by a
mob of about twenty-five men, who
were all masked and well armed.
They took the prieoncrs away from
the officers, tied them to a tree, and
bumed them to death. Murderers
and cattle thieves are meeting with
terrible punishment at the bauds of
judge lynch in this State. It is most
certainly not the best condition of
society, as it takes too many risks
that some of its victims may be in
nocent, which a proper legal trial
would fully establish to the entire
satisfaction of the community.
Tke A. Sc flu
As some interest is felt here in
this company, and the proposed ex
tension of its lines, the following
from au exchange will not be out
of place:
"A reporter of the Atchison Globe
has been interviewing Superintend
ent Towne, of the A. & N. railway
company, in regard to the rumor
that his road was about to fall into
the hands of the Union Pacific rail
road. Mr. Towne authorized the
statement that no such arrangement
is contemplated at present, and that
he has heard nothing about it, but
he thinks that no doubt the A. & N.
will become a feeder to some great
line of railway. Whether it will bo
tho Missouri Pacific, the Pacific, or
the C. B. & Q. cannot now be fore
shadowed. All of these roads have
an eye to the importance of the A.
& N. and the connections it would
offer, but none have yet entered
into uegotialions.
Tke Kearney Co. Hutcliery.
The Omaha Bee gives the follow
ing particulars of the murder of
Mrs. Uarlson aud her three chil
dren: "It is believed that this family
were murdered by a man named
S. D. Richards in order to obtain
possession of a span of mules, some
grain and a homestead claim.
Mrs. Uarlsou's head was smashed
with a smoothing iron ; also, one
child killed with the same instru
ment. One was taken by the heels
aud had its brains dashed out against
the floor. The third child was
kicked to death.
Still another murder was commit
ted in Kearuey county, the victim
being Peter Anderson, who lived
about five miles from Mrs. Hud
son's place.
He was found dead in the cellar
of his house, uuder a coal pile. It
is thought the deed was done by the
same party. He was pounded on
the head with a hammer, aud was
killed for a litllo money ho had
with him at the time."
Humbug.
The American Agriculturist makes
a specialty of exposing the numer
ous frauds aud humbugs that arc
practiced upon the unwary, and
among its iist for December is the
Seminole Gold and Silver Mining
Co. J. M. Pattee, the uotorious
lottery man, is snid to be at the
bottom of this swindle. These
"mines," it is pretended, arc located
at Rawlins; it is said that certain
parties dug a hole in the ground,
some forty miles from there, suffi
ciently deep to conform to the ter
ritorial raining law, then organized
a stock company, and have since
been selling the stock iu the Eastern
and Middle States. The Laramie
Sentinel says : "We are frequently
receiving letters asking for informa
tion about the Seminole Go'd and
Silver Mining Co. We can't answer
these letters there are too many of
them. But we will stale in the
mo6t public manner possible that
tho Seminole Gold and Silver Min
Co., J. R. Brown, president, with
headquarters at Rawlins, W. T., is a
pure fraud, swindle and steal. J. M.
Pattee, of lottery fame, i3 at the
bottom of it. There is no mine, no
mill, no machinery there, and never
will be, and every man who pur
chases stock in it, is merely con
tributing to a lot of dishonest dead
beats, who arc making their living
by gulling the public."
We know of oue man in this
county who was gulled to the
amount of $2 by this or a similar
swindle, and all he has to show for
it, is a very nicely prepared certi
ficate of stock in the concern. Of
course the time-tried and fool-proof
method of obtaining the money was
resorted to iu this case. It is only
necessary to tell some people that
they can receive something for
nothing, or a great deal for a little,
to excite their curiosity and cupidi
ty, and induce them to spend money
that should go to paying their debts,
or supplying the necessaries of life
to their families.
Two 51n Tied to n Tree and
Ittll'IKHl.
Some weeks since a man by the
name of Stephens was killed under
circumstances, which, we believe,
are substantially given below. A.
W. Ketchum and Luther Mitchell
were arrested on a charge of mur
der, and taken to Kearney for im
prisonment. Mitchell was an old
man, sixty-thrco years of age, and
was one of the first settlers in the
Loup country. While on the way
to Custer county, in charge of an
oflicer,a mob of twenty-live ma;ke d
men look the prisoners, lied them to
a tree and burned them. A late
Omaha Herald has the following:
"A conversation last evening with
a stock man who is familiar with the
circumstances out of which this mat
ter has grown, 6ays that last summer
a well-known stock man came up
from Texas with 5,000 or 0,000 cattle
and selected a ranche. The man
Stephens was his foreman, and, it is
stated on excellent authority, was
also his brother, passing for some
reason by an assumed name. Our
informant narrates several incidents
which go to show that Stephens was
an unprincipled desperado, who
Bcrupled at nothing, and says that he
was universally unpopular with the
stock men. He states also that
Mitchell was an elderly man and
generally respected, and that the
affair which resulted in Stephens's
death really occurred as follows:
Stephens' employer (or brother)
had for a long time only a "road
brand" on his cattle, and has been
in constant trouble on that account.
It was growing out of some trouble
of this kind that Stpphens and some
of the Texan herders on the ranch
went to Mitchell's to arrest Mitchell
and Ketchum, a young man who was
stopping there. Stephens rode up
to Ketchum and told him he had
come to arrest him, and the latter
not instantly giving up his arms
without question, Stephens began
firing at him, wounding Ketchum in
the elbow before the latter returned
the fire. He then fired on Stephens,
mortally wounding him as stated.
The gentleman also states that none
of the stock men, unless it were the
Texas herders on the ranch, where
Stevens was employed as foreman,
had any desire to trouble Mitchell
or Ketchum. He 6ays that this
event, if it ha3 occurred as stated, is
the work of Stevens' brother and of
the Texas herders in his employ.and
that such an outrage can only result
in prompt action on the part of the
stock men to bring the demons to
justice; that it is the last of several
troubles with the samo men, and I
will fall heavilv on them. To thosol
who know the prompt and desper
ate actiou which the stock-men find
necessary in such cases, the predic
tion has a deal of meaning, provided
the circumstances aro all as stated."

The Lincoln Journal of the 14th
says: "The snow storm of night
before last and yesterday must have
been the tail end of the snow storm
that visited Kansas City and St.
Joseph Thursday night. Our dis
patches of this morning from Kansas
City speak of it as the heaviest storm
ever known in that locality. At 9
o'clock the storm had abated, and
the fall of snow was estimated at
nearly three feet, with drills of
eight feet. At St. Joseph about one
foot of snow had fallen. Many of
the trains due at both places arc
fast iu snow drills."
The fire at Schuyler on the Sib

has clearly demonstrated some
things that will prove of incalcula

learned that however elaborate and
efficient may be the fire extinguish
ing machinery, it is of little value
without organized aud thoroughly
disciplined companies. It was de
monstrated that the man of muscle
can do much more efficient service
than the man of ideas."

Editor journal: Our Rising
City is still growing, some forty
buildings now completed, and more
to be erected. It hardly yet looks
natural to see the iron horse speed
its way, as I can from my window,
aud a thriving business centre
spring into existence as if by magic,
on a section of land, when a few
years back a neighbor and myself
got lost coming home from Schuy
ler; but so it ip. As our merchants
get ready to display their merchan
dise of all kinds, a heavy trade will
be done at this point. During the
first eight days of buying, Cams &
Co., and Morrissey Bros, shipped
forty car loads of grain. We now
have another buyer, Folkcry & Co.,
and all three buyers are buoy. J. C.
Paxton from Summit was the first
merchant fo have his store complet
ed ; his stock is groceries and shelf
hardware, ho is also our accommo
dating post master. We now have
the following business houses either
already doing business, or will be in
a few days : Cams & Co. groin,coal
and hogs; Morrissey Bros., grain,
they also expect to engage in gen-,
oral merchandise; Folkcn & Co.,.
grain, and hogs; Paxton, as above;
Hurd & Cash, groceries, clothing
and dry goods; Angel & Cook, gen
eral merchandise; J. B. Delsman,
groceries; J. J. Fox, furniture; Dr.,
Lnglcharde, drugs, etc.; Burgess &b
Barmorc, a large livery and feed
6(able; Maloy & French, lumber,
lime and mixed paints; Woodman,
lumber; Hawes & Smith, harness
makers; J. II. Comes, shoe shopi
and last but not least, A. P. Day,
proprietor of the Commercial hotel
All the carpenters are busy, from-
the "boss" contractor to the one who
can merely lay a shingle, or nail on
a board. We need, and very badly
too, a first-class hardware store, we
see by your last issue that Krause
& Sou were out to spy the land, and
if they will give us a good one, their
trade will be heavy. So we grow,
dear Journal, and soon we may
expect to sec all the land now va
cant, cultivated and also pour its
wealth of produce iuto our busy,
busy, little city.
We see by your last issuo that
many farmers in your county are
losing stock, supposed cause of
death, eating smut on corn-stalks.
We would suggest to J. II. Reed
and others that they forward per
express, to the Veterinary Dr. Det
mers, editor of the Chicago Tribune,
a manifold through a subscriber of
that paper as we beliovo from his
large knowledge and practice as a
Areterinarian, valuable knowledge
might be received. One farmer in
this county has lost fifteen head.
