It is the largest building that has ever been moved in this city. The office of Col.

The coming complimentary concert to Mrs. Catey is eminently proper, and will afford an oppor tunity to tho many friends of this talented lady and vocalist to show their appreciation of her eflbrts in almos every musical enterprise, to which' she 'has ever, when called upon, lent the enchantment of her charming voice. The case of Mr. Atkins, the machinistwho had one of his hands accidentally cut ofl" at the Union Pacific shops on Saturday afternoon, is one that will excite the sympathy of all.

Sad Sews. Geo. H.

A little boy was the only one who was saved out of this family. The reservoirs supplied several manufacturing villages with water, and were from thirty to forty feet deep. The loss of life and property by this flood is very large. Hotice to Delinquent rax Payers.

Polock for Bobbing His Father's Fostoffice. The readers of the Bee will recol lect the particulars of the Brown ville postoffice robbery, by"Wm. T. Polock, son of the postmaster, some time last winter. His trial and con viction, on his own confession, took place in the United States District Court Judge Dundy presiding which adjourned yesterday in this city. ThesentenceoftheCourtwas as follows, and is well worthy or perusal: Mr. Polock: The indictment.! on which you have been convicted charges you with stealing a regis tered letter, containing money, from the postoffice at BrownvIIle, in this State. The punishment pre scribed for this offense is confine ment in the penitentiary fota period of not less than one year, nor more than five years. You have seen proper to accept the advice of your menus wuo seemea io uudk uiai it would be useless for you to resist a mnviption. But little time has been been consumed hi disposing of the case against you, and you will not suffer in consequence thereof. Since your conviction, many of your friends, some of whom are your old comrades in arms, have joined in testifying to your former coot! charaoter. Your father, whom j-ou have so deeply wronged, has been ieristent in his eflbrts to lessen the punishment which might lie inflicted on you. Ho lias stoou by you from tho start as bravely as he and you stood by our country when its existence was im periled. He did not desert you when your conduct was such as to almost forfeit parental affection. For tltis I honor and respect him more than ever before. His conduct throughout has been in marked con trast with yours toward him. Your father states that you volun- teered when quite young, and served in tho nnny with him until you were botli hoiionibly dis charged. This fact I have duly considered, and shall give to it some weight. Tho army is not a school in which the morals of the young are apt to bo materially improved. The danger is that habits of the worst kind will be contracted by the young soldier, whilst ho is absent frqin home and friends, and whore he is surrounded by all tho vices with which our armies are usually cursed. There fore, when I am called upon to pass sentence upon a man who has been hororably discharged from our army, I take into consideration the fact that his bad habits may have been contracted when he was in the military service, and where I hqvp any discretion in tho promises, that circumstance shall lessen the punishment that otherwise would be imposed. Your former good char acter, your honorable discharge from the army, and the destitute condi tion of your rainiiy insures to you the lightest punishment known to the law under which you have been convicted. Tho judgment of the Court is that you bP Imprisoned at hard labor for the period of one year, commencing on aud including ilia 4th day of May,-1874. And that you be removed from hero to the Penitentiary at Fort Madison, in JJin State of Iowa, there to undergo your trm of Imprison ment as provided by the rujes and regulations of tho said penitentiary. A PJncky Engineer. On Friday night last, as Conduc tors Haskins' train from St. Louis to Omaha, over the Kansas City, St. Joo and Council Bluffs railway, had left Hamburg, Iowa, a couple of Grangers bombarded his cars with stones, breaking a window. En gineer Harry Keen put on the air brake, and almost immediately stopped tho train. He then Jumped off, caught the stone-heavers, and gave them a sound threshing. That's the kind of an engineer to have, and his salary ought to be raised. Nr.w Green Restaurant.

Robert Townsend, ex-Judge of the Probate Court, died Sunday morning rather suddenly and unex pectedly," his resdience in this city, of pneumonia and inflamation of the bowels, after a brief illness. Judge Townsend had been a resi dent of Omaha a little over five years, having come hero from Poughkeepsie, New York. In July, 1669, he formed a law partnership with B. E. B. Kennedy, Esq., and in the Fall of 1871, he was elected Judge of the Probate Court of Doug las County. Judge Peabody,the pre sent incumbent of that office, pays the deceased a higli and deserved compliment, in saying tnat ne re garded him as an honest and up right Judge, and an honorable and kind-hearted man. When he went out'of office last fall all the papers, records and accounts were found cor rect and complete up to the very last hour. Judge Townsend acquired many warm friends by his quiet and un obtrusive manners, and his death is generally mourned, especially as it occurred in the very prime of life. He was in his thirty-fourth year at the time of his demise. He leaves a wife and throo children. The fu neral will probably take place to morrow afternoon, and the remains will be sent east for interment. This is the first death that has ever occurred for many years among the Omaha bar, of which Judge Townsend was a most respected member. A meet ing oi ino oar was neiu lasi eve ning at 7 o'clock at tho office of B. E. B. Kennedy. A committee on resolutions was appointed consisting of Messrs. J. M Woolworth, E. Estahrook, C. Briggs, Q.
