As soon as O'Donnell became aware of Carey's presence he commenced drinking, and was heard to denounce Carey and declare that he would swing for him if he got the chance. Having made this threat, and intent on killing Carey, he took passage by the steamer Melrose Castle for Ft. Elizabeth. The shooting was done in the fore cabin, O'Donnell waiting for such an oppor tunity as would present no possibility of interference or failure. The first two shots were fired in rapid succes sion, both penetrating Carey's back; he staggered and partly turned, and the third and last shot struck him in the throat, when he fell. The blood from the wound in his throat spurted in a powerful stream and covered the walls and furniture in the most horri ble manner. Carey was quickly lifted from the floor and placed on the cabin table, where in a few minutes he died without uttering a word. The lawyers of the judicial district composed of Douglas, Washington, Burt and Sarpy counties where two judges are to be elected, are making a strong move to have judges elected without regard to politics, and have called a meeting of the bar of that district for the purpose of consulting and agreeing upon a plan to secure the, election to this office of men whose only recommendation shall be their fitness for the place. The mem bers of the bar of that judicial dis trict have a perfect right to vote for whom they please, but it looks a little strange to us that a few members of the bar should undertake to dictate to a large majority of the people com posing the two political parties of the district for whom they should vote, and which rather implies that the parties of the district are not capable of selecting candidates out of their own parties and electing them, "who are upright, capable and efficient men." A recent session of the Connecti cut branch of the Universal Peace Union was held at Mystic, Conn., and passed strong resolutions demanding that the war of extermination which has been waged for two hundred and fifty years against the original occu pants of American soil, including the treacherous and unprovoked slaugh ter of thousands of friendly men, wo men and children, the violent or fraudulent appropriation of their lands and other property, the perpet ual bad faith and every kind of wrong be stopped; that our fellow citizens of Indian birth be accorded citizenship, suffrage and justice whereto they are entitled under the fourteenth amendment. Also resolu tions were adopted in favor of a uni versal peace conference and woman suffrage. Recent specials from London give accounts of terrific volcanic eruptions which produced wonderful tidal waves in tho island of Java, which commenced on the night of the 25th ult., and still continued at the time of the report, showing that there was frightlul loss of life and destruction of property. Some two thousand Chinese, living on Long Ground at tho entrance of Batavia harbor, were drowned by the waves,and of 3,500 Eu ropeans and Americans living in that city, 800 sre said to be lost. At Anzier showers of rocks, mud and lava, fol lowed by waves, destroyed 2,000 peo ple. Bortain is entirely covered with water, and 1,000 to 1,500 persons drowned. The Island of Serango was submerged with all of its inhab itants not stated how many persons. An important case was recently argued and docided in the district court at Cheyenne, Wyo., in which all the western states that have much government land are greatly inter ested, as no decision has heretofore been made affecting the question. The case decided was that of the United States against A. H. Swan and others. It was a bill in equity asking for an injunction to abate a fence which had, as alleged, unlaw fully enclosed eleven sections of gov ernment lands, and to restrain the defendants from erecting other such fences on like unoccupied sections of the public domain. The case was very ably presented on both sides, and resulted in favor of the govern ment and that the fences must be re moved. At a recent meeting of the select committee to inquire into the griev ances of the Sioux Indians at Fort Yates, Dak., about 300 Indians were present. Sitting Bull offered an in sult to the committee, when he was told all the committee should receive recognition he claiming that the Great Spirit had given him the right alone to express the sentiments of the Sioux. He afterwards returned and apologised and addressed the com mittee, saying he wished $8,000,000 for the land covered by the agree ment. Gen. Logan told Sitting Bull he was not chief and if be used simi lar language to the committee again he would be put into the guard house and made work. The poisoning of valuable imported cattle at the government quarantine at Boston, proves to be the careless ness of officers in selecting ground. The land at the drinking place was formerly a potato field and strongly impregnated with Paris green, of which considerable quantities were found in the water. It is stated that thirty head are now sick, and are owned by Leonard, of Missouri. It is stated that during the past sixty days twenty-five artesian wells have been struck in Denver, every one of which is flowing powerful streams of nearly chemically pure water, and as many more are under way.

' There appears to be almost no end to the novelties being perfected for the Oriole festivities in Baltimore in Sep tember. It will truly be as termed, a Summer Night's Carnival, and cer tainly nothing like it was ever before attempted in any city of the continent. There will be electricity in all its forms, are lights and incandescent lights, focus lights and flambeau, torches in various colors, Greek fire, calcium and gas, until night will be turned into day. The pyrotechnic features will be on a scale of great extent and variety, some of the setLfar- The number of lives lost is not pieces promising to be marvelous in effect. The whole city will be lighted as never before. The different monu ments with which the metropolis abounds will be girdled by electrical bands, while the lofty and majestic dome of the City Hall will be fairly ablaze. Every avenue leading to novelty in illumination is eagerly sought after, aud old Baltimore will indeed show herself this year. The night display in the harbor will be a gorgeous sight; and the arrival of Lord Baltimore something to remem ber for years. The Mystic Pageant on the third night will beyoud all comparison excel anything of the de scription ever attempted not alone iu this country but iu auy country. Other cities are content with from eighteeu to twenty-two floats, the latter number being the greatest ever embraced within one pageaut in any city. Baltimore almost doubles this, as her pageant on the night of the 13th of September will include no IesH than forty floats or tableaux cars, larger, more imposing and grander in every way, than ever before shown. Ordinarily the number of characters introduced in a pageant is less than one hundred. In the Baltimore pa geant there will be two hundred aud thirty characters upon the floats, every costume eutirely new and im ported from Paris direct. It will re quire thirteen hundred men, two hundred and forty horses, over fifteen thousand gas jets, eight bands of music, and other accessories in like magnificent proportion The actual cash outlay necessary to place the pageant upon the streets of Baltimore will exceed thirty-five thousand dol lars. The characters are assumed ex clusively by members of the Order of the Oriole, merchants and business men of the highest standing. The special series of excursions arranged by the Baltimore & Ohio are meeting with undisguised favor, as they admit of visiting so many places of great interest in addition to the Oriole at Baltimore. As all the festivities in the Monumental City are at night, the days can be put in visiting Washing ton, Old Point Comfort, Fortress Monroe, Luray Caves, Harper's Ferry, and very many other points. The rate is down to the very lowest notch, half-fare from all stations on the enormous system embraced within the B. & O. management. A sad accident occurred last week on the Pan Handle road near the ill fated station Mingo Junction, in Jefferson county, Ohio, between an east bound freight and the Cincin nati express passenger train, wreck ing both engines and one postal car, killing Wm. Hoyt, postal clerk, and badly injuring several others. It is alleged that the accident was the care lessness of Conductor Swaney, of the freight train, who Bhould have waited for the passenger to pass. Fbom the Chicago Herald we learn that President Arthur is traveling in a region little known to the outside world, but interesting iu reminiscen ces of Indian warfare, mining adven tures and outlaw episodes. Near South Pass is a graveyard whose in scriptions tell the early history of the country. "Killed in a row August 12." "Shot by Jako Smith July 10," "Hung by vigilantes June 10," "She took poison and died," are 6omo sug gestive epitaphs. An exchange says there is a pecu liar family in Circleville, Ohio, named Redd. Tho man wife and three chil dren are all red-headed, while tho man's beard, eyebrows and even his nose are of a deep red. Ho dresses in a full Buit of red jeans and a red knit shirt. The woman and the children (all girls) wear spotless red calico, red collars aud ties. They drive two bay horses, attached to a red wagon with a red cover. The democrats held their state con vention at Omaha on the 29th ult., which was well attended and said to be very harmonious in its action. The convention nominated the fol lowing ticket : James W. Savage, of Douglas, for judge of the supreme court, and James M. Wool worth, of Douglas, E. K. Daniels, of Madison, and G. W. Johnson, of Fillmore, for regents of the state university. Charles Oaksox and his son who kindly permitted a young man to ride in their wagon last week near Oak land, Neb., and who at a lonely place on the road, drew from bis gripsack a revolver and demanded their money or "you are dead on the spot." He took $10 wateh and chain from the old man and $25 and watch from tho boy. He made his escape, but it is believed he was arrested at Blair. Later reports from the volcanic eruptions on the island of Java, give horrible accounts of the results, stat ing that iu one instance a tract of land fifty miles square was swallowed up beneath the waves, carrying with it two towns and a population of 15,000 people. These reports also claim that the aggregate loss of life iu that region will reach fully 6eventy-five thousand people. Recent news from London reports a fatal steamship collision in the Eng lish channel. The morning was misty and thick, and the steamer St. Ger main, when off the Channel Islands, ran into the steamer Woodburn. The latter was struck forward of the main mast and sank very rapidly. Seven teen persons were drowned and five steerage passengers crushed to death.

Re cently a large number have been sent back from this conntry. The Huditon steamer Rivcrdaie burst her boiler the other .titer noon on North river at New York. In a few minute? afterward she keeled to the side and capsized opposite six teenth street, she having floated that known, but many known to have been scalded or di owned, and others res cued who cannot live. It is the opinion of those best in formed upon the subject that it will uot be long until the Omaha Indiau lands are brought into the market for settlement. The lands aro now being appraised and when completed the department at Washington will an nounce the conditions aud terms upoii which they will be sold to actual settlers. The lawyers of the Third judicial district held a meeting in Omaha on the 29th ult., and recommended the election of Judges Jas. Neville and E. Wakely, irrespective of their political opiuions, aud ask that the respective parties of the district unite in making the nominations in accordance with the views expressed by the meeting. Hakvey Boyd, oldest son of Mr. John Boyd, manager of Boyd's pack ing house at Omaha, recently went to Boyd's ranch near Ft. Fetterman to help mauage cattle, and while engag ed in branding calvea on the 29lh ult. was run down by a mad cow and gored through the body in the region of the heart, dying instantly. The Chicago Herald claims that among lady operators who went out on the strike there was no quailing, no desertion aud uo betrayal of their associate?. The fact is of interest to sociologists, as furnishing auother illustration ot the tenacious spirit shown by woman when a question of principle appeals to her. In the case of Silver ys. Kendall and others for a writ of mandamus to compel the board of public lands and buildings to cancel the award of the capitol contract to "VV. II. B. Stout and award it to Silver, a majority of the court retused to grant the writ, Judge Maxwell dissentiug. In Virginia they are making flour from peanuts, and it is said to be ex cellent. It is customary in Georgia to pound the uuts for a pastry. Ne braskans liko good things, and they ought to try their hands on peanut pastry. "Wo would like to sample some of it ourselves. Duking a cyclone in Mississippi, a turtle weighing sixty pounds was blown out of Pearl river and lauded in a cotton iield some distance away. A flock of geese were stripped of their feathers and many of them kill ed by being blown 'against trees and fences. Eastern New England is suffering from drouth which has lasted five or six weeks, injuring tho crops serious ly, with a prospect of still further damage if tho drouth continues. Farmers are compelled to take their cows from tho pastures and feed hay. The Grand Island hose team won the first prize in the free-for-all race at the state tournament at Lincoln. It is said the friends of tho fire laddies at Grand Island were jubilaut over their success, and that a banquet was given them on their return. The ten commandments, purport ing to bo ancient copies on sheep skin, receutly discovered among nomads in the Arabian desert, are said by eminent European archaeolo gists called upou to examine them to be forgeries. A very pretty sixteen - year - old daughter of Wm. McMillen, living near Lewis, Cass county, Iowa, was abducted one-day last week, and though diligent search has been made in all directions no trace of her can be found. Miss Emma Dewhurst, formerly a music teacher at DePauw College, New Albany. Ind., goes to Nicarague, Central America, where she has ac cepted a five years' contract to teach music in an educational institution. Miss Mary E.
