Twenty cases of sun stroke oc curred one da' last week at Cincin nati. Several proved fatal. Ninetv-sevf.n burial permits wero issued in Cincinnati on the 13th inst., the largest number ever known in one day. Great damage resulted to prop erty in Iowa from the terrible rain storm which visited certain por tions of the state last week. It is reported that 60on the U. P. railroad intend to reduce first-class rates from Omaha, Kansas City, St. Joe and Leavenworth to Denver. Some cases of hog cholera are re ported in the Blair Times, Mr. J. Gilbcrsou having lost in a short time by that disease nine large hogs aud fifty-three shoals. From reliable reports it is staled that the French wheat crop will not exceed an average crop and may be elightly below it. The Austrian harvest will be fully up to the average. Venezuela, oue of the most northern of the South American Re publics, has a revolution on hand. It is staled that the president, Gen eral Gusmau Blanco, has 10,000 men under arms. The ballotiugs for senators at Albany on the 12th resulted as fol lows : Lapham CS, Potter 52, Conk ling 32. For a successor to Piatt; Miller 70, "Wheeler 21, Kernan 52. Rogers was withdrawn. Three Xcw York thieves made a big haul the other morning, getting away with about $10,000 in bills at the Grand Central depot. It is sup posed that the monoy was from the safe at the express ollicc. It is reported that a woman of the sickly-sentimental kind, called the other day at the Washington City jail and wanted to give Guiteau aomo broiled chicken and sweet meats. The food was denied him. The Catholic Knights of America held a meeting last week in Cincin nati. Bishop Elder addressed the meeting, approving of the order and denouncing secret societies. About two hundred and fifty delegates were present. SouTn Dcs Moines was under water one day last week, and out of connection with the cast, the track of the C. B. & Q. went down or gone out It was the heaviest rain storm ever known in that part of tho slate. JrixsE Crouxse has added a few head of fine blooded heifers to his already due herd of short horns. Omaha Republican. "We BUggcst to the Judge the addition of a few full blooded Herefords, which promises fair to be a new favorite. Henry Smith, the colored wretch who committed the abominable out rage upon Lucy "Webb, and after wards murdered her, near Little Rock, Ark., was hanged by a mob last week on the trco where the dead body of the girl was fouud. A new railroad is being talked about and the route viewed by par ties interested. The route is to be a direct line from Lako Superior to Omaha, rm Eau Claire and the Me nomonee branch. It is alreadv etylcd the "Omaha Lumber Line." The vicinity of Fairfield postoffico near Benson, Minn., was visited last week by a tempest which leaves nothing upright in its track. Many of the citizens dangerously injured but no lives lost as yet reported, but a large number of horses and other stock killed. A statement cornea from Balti more saying that within the past few days eight children and youths have died of lock-jaw superinduced by what appeared to be trifling bums caused by discharging paper caps on toy pistols. In each case death was preceded by the most agonizing suffering. David & Sexton's bank, located at Rivcrton, Iowa, was robbed last week of about .$4,000 by two men who jumped over the counter and secured the money while the clerk was getting. change for a bill pre sented by the robbers. They then mounted their horses, rode away and were not captured. Citizens of this nation will great ly rejoice at the announcement of tho improved health of Mrs. Abra ham Lincoln. She has been able to ride out and receive callers. The news of the attempted assassination of President Garfield was a great shock to her and almost prostrated her, and for a time produced a re turn of illness. The latest news from Albany is up to the ICth. The balloting re sulted as follows: For 6hort terra, Potter 47, Lupham OS, Conkling 29. For tho long term, Kernan 47, Miller 7G. Nine members changed their votes to Miller, making his vote S5. The speaker declared Warner Miller elected to fill the vacancy occasioned by the resignation of T. C. Piatt. ."Murder and Kobln-ry. A gang of robbers side-tracked a train ou the night of tho ICth ou tho Rock Island road at Winslow sta tion, near Cameron Junction. The signal was given, the robbers rushed forward and shot the conductor aud made an attempt to kill the cugineer. A passenger by the name of Miller in the darkness was mistaken for the engineer, and killed immediately. Having secured possession of the train, one of them ran the engine. The robbers next made a dash for the cars, ordered the passengers to hold up their hands aud give up their money and valuables. The other set of robbers that went to the express car succeeded in knock ing the messenger down and secur ing his keys. The' obtained from the safe $500 in money, -$300 in val uables and a government bond to the amount of $1,000. Chas. West fall, the conductor, was killed ou the first attack. About the time the robbers demanded money of the passengers a brakesman started for ward on the train after the conduc tor was killed, and pulled the cord attached to the air brakes and soon the train stopped. The robbers jumped from the cars and left the train. It is claimed by other accounts of the robbery that they succeeded in getting about $15,000. A good deal of sickness may reas onably bo expected to occur this scasou along and near to tho water courses so unusually flooded by high waters in the spring. Already it begins to tell in Omaha in the num ber of people that are sick, as well as the number of deaths reported the last week. Citizens in all localities visited by the floods should in every instanco of feeling unwell without delay apply to their family physician and have the causes of disease in stantly removed from the system. If this is not done immediately it may become so deep sealed as to require weeks and mouths to con trol, and perhaps obtain such a hold upon the system that the best efforts of your physician cannot control it. We admouish all to take prompt action with the diseases of this year, in all localities that have been flood ed by the high waters. The President on the 14th was still better and improving. The doctors all agree that he is getting better right along, aud that the dan ger is about passed. He had a bet tor appetite that day and had taken more food. Some eflbrls are being made to locate the place of the lodg ment of the ball in the President's body. The investigations of Dr. Bliss lead him to the conclusion that the ball must have passed through the liver or must havo grazed it in its downward course and lodged in the interior wall of the abdomen, as at first supposed, aud it will be easy when the time comes to roraovo it from that point without danger. The report from tho President under date of July 15th says the President's condition h better than ever. His appetite is very good, ne atn with a relish, and retained everything on his stomach. James O'Brien, who had been working on tho section at Nicholas, just west of North Platte, and learn ing that a fellow laborer, William Moflit, had by industry and economy saved over two hundred dollars, which he kept in hia room locked iu a trunk, O'Brien feigned sickness, and after the man had gone to work, he broke open the trunk, and taking the cash, besides several other val uable articles, he skipped out. The sheriff of Dawson county captured tho thief at Plum Creek, where he was found riding in a box car. Ho was brought back to North Platte aud immediately committed to await the action of the grand jury. The attending physicians upon the President on the 12th inst., say they have not concealed the fact that the presidcut is a very sick man, and that he is not out of danger,.but they do insist that all of his symptoms are favorable, and that there is no indication of unfavorable symptoms to come. They state .that on the 11th inst., the president passed tho most comfortable day since the shooting. July 12 12-40. The president is resting quietly, his condition is somewhat improved. Pulse 182. July 132 a. m. The president rests well. His condition continues the same as at last report. The town of New Ulra, situated on the Minnesota river, some sixty five miles from St. Paul, and con taining about 3,500 people, was struck by a wonderful cyclone on the afternoon of the 15th. The track of the cyclone is described by the Pioneer Press as a scene of awful grandeur during the storm, and an appalling wreck after it, while the troubled air was full of debris, and wildly lit up by blazing balls of electricity. A large number of the citizens were killed and others wounded and a terrible destruction of houses and other property. Cranky Bill, a sort of a crazy dare-devil, fires at three men on Dodge street, Omaha, last week, and drives two more out of a saloon with his pointed revolver. He was finally captured by policeman Gorman and placed in the lock-up. The Omaha Bejniblican thinks he is crazy, and a dangerous luuatic at that, and eho'd be sent to a lunatic asylum. The Kansas City Journal, from reliable sources estimates the' wheat and corn crops of Kansas as fol lows: The yield of wheat will ag gregate over 20,000,000 bushels, and the grade will be excellent. The acreage of corn planted has beou greater than usual, and it is safe to estimate the product of this season at 125,000,000 bushels. The same Journal, from a careful examination of the reports,says Nebraska's wheat crop will reach 1C,000,000 bushels this year, and her corn to near 90, 000,000 bushels. The recent rain storm in Iowa did immense damage in some local ities. By tho overflow of tho Skuuk and Dcs Moines rivers, the damage on low lands of Mahaska is very serious, hundreds of acres being submerged. Thousands of dollars worth of stock was lost, whole herds numbering over a hundred each being drowned. Two hundred and fifty thousand dollars will not cover the damage in Mahaska county. On the afternoon of tho 10lh a fire broke out in DaviB's drug Btore in Hastings, said to bo the result of tho explosion of a case of kerosene, and burned down the whole of the post office block on the north side of second street with the exception of a block on the southeast corner, aud the livery stable ou tho northwest corner. Tho loss on buildings will foot up $40,000, and perhaps half as much damage on goods. Thos. K. Pugh, who was supposed to have been killed by the Apaches, turns out to be a prisoner in their bauds. In searching for him a small note was found in the dust, written by him, which said, "I am a prisoner. Apaches have got me. Hurry after me." The authorities of Mexico and tho United States have sent troops after the Indians, and every effort will be made to save Pugh if he is still alive. The Democratic convention of Ohio held at Columbus on the 13th inst., placed in nomination the fol lowing state ticket: For governor, John W. Bookwalter; lieutenant governor, E. M. Johnson ; supreme judge, E. F. Brigham ; state treasur er, A. F. Winslow; attorney general, F. C. Dougherty. The convention passed resolutions deeply deploring the recent attack upon the life of the President. Wonderful feats were performed by the telegraph on the day of the President's assassination ; tho West ern Union company sent 275,000 words of press matter and 6,000 words of private dispatches for its day 8 work. The American Union company ran all day, and four news papers received 30,000 words. All the wires in Washington that day sent out about 400,000 words. Great damage resulted to prop erty in Marshalltown, Iowa, from the recent unprecedented rain storm. The water from Linn Creek rose to such a height as to float about forty houses. Some thirteen manufactur ing establishments wero moro or less wrecked. In the city the dam age amounts to $200,000, while out side, the loss in crops and farm implements is very largo.
