The United States Grand Jury were discharged yesterday. Several indictments were found by them. Mrs. B. M. Trout received a dis patch Thursdy night stating that her husband had met with a severe in juries from the kick of a horse at Glenwood, Iowa. She left this morning for Glenwood to attend him. A fishing party, composed ot Judge Dundy, Hon. John I. Redick and his two sons, Dr. McClelland, E. D.

One of the men wish ing to see how he would look With the iron bracelets upon his wrists slipped them, and the lock fastened them securely. The services of a blacksmith were required to unlock the baudcufB. Annie Morrisey was again be fore the Police Court yesterday, this time on the charge of being an in mate of a house of prostitution. Her attorney, J. P. BarUett tried to ob tain a jury trial for her, but Judge Wilbur refused to lower the dignity of the Court by calling a jury of re spectable citizens to sit upon such a jjasty trivial case. The girl was dis charged upon her promising to go into .some respectable occupation. A little boy, aged four and a half years, ton of Captain Ludlow, CityCIerk.ied atl o'clock Thqrsday night under rathor peculiar circum stances. He was unwell and a doc tor was sent for to attend him. gome medicine was given him, and in five mingles afterward he was dad. The prescription had been filled at a drug store, and it may have been put up wrong, or it may be that the doctor was to blame. A Coroner's inquest and an investiga tion were talked of this morning, and euch will probably be the steps taken in the matter, Marshal Snowdcn Thursday re ceived a dispatch from the Council Bluff Marshal stating that he had .captureda boy named Henry Lynch, having in Jjis possession three stolen coats. Policeman Mansfield was sent over for him, and brought him back to Omaha. Ono of the coats was found to belong to Mr. Whit ney, of Whitney, Bauserman fc jCo., and the othor two to Mr. R. fhompn, of Young's lumberyard. The boy, who is but seventeen, and hailing from St. Louis, confessed to hsving stolen Judge Porter's napkin ring, and that ho had thrown them away in a water closet. His ex amination will take place before Judge Wilbur to-day. This ar rest explains the recent petty bur glaries in this city. . Twenty-three dogs, of all sizes, colors, breeds, and ages, assembled on Douglas street, between Four teenth and Fifteenth, abqutfi A. M. yestorda3, and fell to fighting over a &tray pjgee of meat. They gath ered around a passerby, whom they attacked, and Jailor Anderson and 3rr, Willis Yates had to come to his rescue. They armed themselves with a couple of meat-hooks from Sheeley's butcher-shop, and fought the dogs for five minutes, finally killing one and putting the rest to .flight.. The Bee regrets that it .pan not do justice to this affair to Jay, for a column or two could be written on it- Sufllce it to say, that - it eclipsed any dog fight that ever occurred in this city. It is about time that the dog imputation of Omaha were treated to strychnine or something else that will dimin ish heir numbers. Talking abost another Man's Wife. On Wednesday a certain man, a carpenter by trade, while in a sa loon near the Military Bridge, was led by some questions, to make some remarks derogatory to the character of the wife of an ex-arm y .officer. The substance of these re piarks was carried almost immedi ately to the husband, who soon put in appearance, ami bounced the slanderer of his wife's fair fiimc. Moral.

May lo, It lonp City A Thriving Town. Yesterday we had the pleasure of meeting Mr, M. Vf. Benschoter, ono of the prominent citizens and founders of the thriving town of Loup City, Sherman county. From him we learned many interest ing facts concening this rapidly rising placo, which has had a re markable growth sjneo its founda tion. It Is a fact that towns in Ner braska have sprung Into existence in a night, as it were, and assumed important proportions almost before any body knew that there were any such places. This wa3 tle case witli Loup City, which was laid out a little over a year ago, the first house being completed March 4th, 1873. To-day the place contains between 330 and 400 inhabitants, and new arrivals arp daily coming in. There are two grocery Etorc3 ono drug store, two dry goods stores, one brlek yard, a saw-mill, etc. Brick and lumber are to be had in abund ance, and at very reasonable rates. Arrangements arc being made to start a grist mill. The middle Loap valley, in which Loup City is located, is one of the garden spots of America. Red cedar abounds a few miles above the city. The valley is six to seven miles wide, the uplands qre rolling, pro ducing the best grasses in the world, and affording the very be-t grazing grounds-for cattle. During the whole of last winter cattle did not eat more than fifty pounds of hay each. Stone for building purposes, is to be had in abundance. The educational facilities of the placo aro excellent, as a fine school house lias been built, and a good teacher employed. A weekly paper, the Loup City News, is published by P. S. Atkin son. There is a semi-weekly stage and line to and from Grand Island, and also to and from Kearney Junction. The soil of the middle Loup Val ley is the richest in Nebraska, and its wheat growing qualities "are un paralleled. Mr, Benschoter left for Chicago and the East yesterday afternoon to lay these facts before the people to induce immigration to this section of tlie State. That he will succeed in turning a large immigration to the Middle Loup Valley not the least doubt. we have John Wirth's New Eesiaurant. Mr. John Wirth will open his magnificent restaurant and refresh ment rooms in Caldwell block, 011 Saturdai, the 10th inst. The first Moor, 100 feet by 22, is divided into three departments. The first at the entrance is elegant ly fitted up with shelves, counters and show cae3 for confectionery, cigars, etc. The ollleo will also be in this room, as well as ono of the most per fect soda fountains that money will procure. Next comes the dining room, completely furnished with nice tables, comfortable chairs, and costly China and silver ware. In the rear of the (lining room, is the lunch and refreshment room, fitted up with separate counters for eatables and drinkables. The kitchen and store rooms are in the basement connected with the main floor by means of an eleva tor. The walls of the.ofllpe, dining and refreshment rooms are hand somely embellished with beautiful pictures and large plate glass mir rors. The work of fitting up this re cherche establishment was executed by Henry Voss, architect and builder.

Her Meetings to be held in an Immense Tent Her Revival to be Followed np by a Camp Meeting- The great revivalist, Mrs. Maggie Van Cott, whose eloquent labors were not without their effect In Omaha some few months ago, will return to this city the latter part of next week, when religious excite ment will probably run higher by far than it did on her first visit here. Since that time she has been in ev ery part of the country, spreading the gospel, and converting the heathen by thousands, but in all her travels she has failed to find a place, it is said, that can so well stand, and really needs, a second visitation from her, as does Omaha. Be that as it may, she is coming, with the hope of converting every man and wo man, young and old, who is not en tirely beyond the hope of redemp tion. Arrangements are being made to accommodate the large numbers that will flock to hear her. An immense tent, the property of the Methodist State Conference, which wa3 purchased for camp meeting purposes four j'ears ago, will be erected on the vacant lot adjoining the First Methodist Church,.south east corner of Capitol avenue and Seventeenth street. It will bo put up on Monday. It will be circular in shape, being CO feet in diameter. The entrance will be on Capitol av enue; the pulpit is to be next to the church, in front of the choir seats, both of which are to be enclosed in a small frame building opening into the tent Gas fixtures are to be put in, and a floor will be laid down. The seats will run east and west, there being an aisle north and south. The tent will be able to comfortably seat between eight and nine hun dred people. It is not so large as was expected, as jt was thought at first that it would accommodate 1200 people. Mrs. Van Cott will begin her work a week from next Sunday, and will continue to hold meetings till the 10th of June, when sho will proceed to San Francisco. Arrangements have been made to hold a Methodist camp meeting in this tent, after Mrs. Van Cott's de parture, beginning on the loth of Junp, pnd continuing ten days. It is expected ttyat ministers from all parts of the State Will be in atten dance. Surely Omaha is about to undergo a more rigorous religious campaign than ever before experienced by her, and it is predicted that when the war on sin is over, there will not remain a corporal's guard of uncon verted heathpn within the city limits.

Editor Bee: In a recent trip through the western and central part of our flourishing county, we saw many improvements that challenged our admiration, and made us under stand more readily than by mere hearsay, that Douglas county is re taining the lead which it has always held in the State sisterhood of counties. Leaving Omaha by the U. P. express; going first south down through Sarpy county, stop ping for a few moments at the young but flourishing town of Papillion, we pass on through the most beauLful farming country in Nebraska the valleys of the Pappio's and twenty miles from Omaha by rail, (but twelve by wagon road) we stop at Millard the first station we reach i Douglas eounty. It boasts of one of the finest depot buildings 011 the U. P.; large, commodious, comfortable, and is well tenanted by the gentle manly agent, Mr. Stewart. The town site has been but lately laid out, and is owned chiefly by Mr. Millard, the banker in our city, in honor of whom the station - is named. It occupies a very pretty piece of ground on the valley of of what is called the Big Pappio, and is surrounded by the lest farm ing land in our State. A very fair hotel furnishes the "comforts of life at reasonable prices," dispensed by Mr. Kaobler. A very fine storehouse, contain ing an excellent assortment of gen eral merchandise, attracts the Atten tion of all visitors, who are more highly delighted after meeting with the kind and courteous co-proprietor Mr. Cartner, to whom with his ac complished lady much of the social as well as the mercantile success of Millard is to be attributed. Mr. Cartner is in partnership with Messrs. Pomroy & Kennedy, the firm doing a large business in lum ber and general merchandise at Pappillion as well as Millard. Mr. John Green, of Omaha, lias a ware house at this point for the storage of grain, large quantities being handled here yearly. Millard is sure to be a thriving little point in time and will well repay any invest ments there. It Is" surrounded by fine tarms and livo farmers. Per example at Dr. Link's, one mile from Millard, his daughter intro duced us to the "Omaha Daily Bee," a fine blooded cow, the best milker on thefarm. We think this stamps the young lady as a person of good discernment. Mr. Hollenbeok ha3 a fine farm of several hundred 'acres, ashortdis tuuee from Millard, and is one of the best practical farmers in our county. Leaving Millard again, go ing seven miles further on the U. P., we reached Elkhorn, a very prosperous and thrjvnig little (own. Owing' to spine land dispute, Elk horn lias been at a stand still for several years, but as that unfortu nate affair is now settled, it Is tak ing quite a start. Its mercantile in terests are well represented. Mr. J. W. Stewart, who lias one of the largest stores, and finest assorted stocks to be found iii any small town between Omaha and Ogden, pronounces traxjo to be lookjng up, and everything indicative of pros perous and lively times at harvest. Many buildings are In process of erection, among others, we notice one owned by Mr. J. R. Silras, the U. E- travelling photographer, who has" already rented the upper 6tpry to the Masons for lodge meetings, and who intends renting the lower floor for a store room. By the way, we had tlie pleasure of meeting tills gentleman and an interesting anecdote he relates us of his first xjerience in traveling car photograpy may not be amiss here. About four years ago he thought that if he could obtain a car of the U. P., fit It up as a photograph gal lery, and run it from town to town on tlie road that it would be a pro fitable, though novel venture. Hav ing made all arrangements ho was seated in his car one evening ready to start out on his first trip. He sat with his elbow out of the window, and as they were passing through the yard near where the smelting works now are, Jtsprappd against some coal cars on a switch laying too close to the main track, and his arm was broken badly. He tells me at the tlmo ho had but one dollar and a half in this world beside his stock in the car. Tills unfortunate accident would have deterred some men, but not him. He laid off at Elkhorn, sent for a brother photog rapher from Fremont who had just been burnt out; had him tend to his business while he was sick; rook it in charge himself when well, and ha been doing a fine buMnoss over since. Verily; "the darkest hour is just before day," G. N. Crawford, Esq., is refitting his store-room, preparatory to going into business again, and as he adds great energy and shrewdness to his other good qualities, he cannot fail to be successful. Now, as to the educational inter est., as this is one which, of course, greatly interests all new comers. Elkhorn boasts of one of tlie finest school in the county. It is under the care of Prof. John Rush, one of tlie ablest and oldest Douglas county teachers. While lie has charge, supported as he is by a live district board, the school aflajra of F-lkljorn will lie above par, ' TlieSilvarHouohas been refitted and furnished throughout, and is giving satisfaction to all while un der the charge of the obliging host, Air. uurton. We understand that a lumber yard js about to be opened at this place; that arrangements are about completed whereby stock yards will De openedt and many othenmproveT monts whiob spaeo and time forbids our mentioning in this letter. Douglas county has several thriv ing towns in the western part, all doing nobly. In our next, we sljajl speak of Waterloo. Till then, adieu. w. W.

James Stephenson Eises to Explain. Mr. Editor: The Herald, while congratulating itself upon the verdict in the case against it for violation of the fire lim it ordinance, takes occasion to be smear the jury and Judge Wilbur witn the most fulsome praise, and to apply to me the most opprobrisus epithets. No doubt the Police Judge and the jury did their simple duty, and deserved the praise bestowed upon them. I, too, did my duty, and yet I am abused for it. Why? Because I dared to prosecute the Herald pro prietors for what I thought a viola tion of the lira limit ordinance. That was the only way I had to find out whether I was right or wrong. I am abused because I had the vim to proceed against tlie Herald outfit who undoubtedly think themselves the "great I am" of this commu nity. They were amazed that I should have the cheek to raise a question concerning the erection of their building. They considered it the greatest impudence on my part to think of rightfully interfering with them, the great moguls of Omaha. Would they have said one word against me, had I taken tlie same steps against some poor man ? No ! But they are thunderstruck at my action in including the rich and poor, high and low, in this matter. I wish, Mr. Editor, to state a few facts in regard to this case. I was twenty-four hours trying to get a warrant, and finally, when Judge Wilbur did give mo a warrant, he wanted me to be good for the costs if I should be beaten. He first wanted $25.00 costs guar anteed, and when I was about to take the complaint to another court, he dropped to $5.00 costs, which I guaranteed, and he went on with tho case. Now, I would like to ask what kind of action is this on the part of Judge Wilbur? What au thority has he for it ? Judge Wilbur met a certain Coun cilman on the street, and told him to get me to withdraw the case. An hour afterwards, Marshal Snowden saw the same Councilman, to get him to have mo withdraw the com plaint. The Councilman said that lie could not do it. Judge Wilbur, and all the rest, told me I would get beaten in the case. It is a fact that not one of the jurymen owned a brick building, and one of them wants to violate 4 .. . . the fire limit ordinance. -, You will observe, therefore, what odds I had to contend against, and you will not be surprised that I was beaten. But would not the result liave'beeu'diflfc'ren'tj if sore poor man, or unimportant cuss, or blath erskite, had been putting up the Herald building, or one similar to it? James Stephenson.
