Beard, artistic and decorative pain

size, lying down, and contempla
tively gazing upon a glass of foam
ing lager, that he holds between his
fore-paws. The work is well done,
and reflects considerable credit
upon Messrs. L. &B. They have

Instructions to the Police.
City Marshal Snowden last even
ing took occasion to give some
healthy instructions to the Police
force.
He intends to make the Police
force an ornament and a pride to
the citv. and to this end he lectured
them and pointed out to them me
way in which they should travel.
He then read to them following
written instructions :
Sec 1. All members of the De
partment shall devote their whole
time and attention to the business
of the Department, and not follow
any other calling, and although cer
tain hours are allotted to each man's
duty on ordinary occasions, yet all
the members must be prepared to
act at a moment's notice whenever
their services may be required.
T..ni,ioi nHomftrop shall be requi
red of every officer connected with
the department on all ocasions;
sickness and disability only shall be
an excuse for absence from duty.
Sec. 2. Officers must not contract
debts for liquor, nor visit bar-rooms
to drink intoxicating liquor while
on duty, nor whether on or off duty,
iwvm. Sntnvirafpd. or throw or
count dice for money, drinks or
things of value, nor sleep on duty
either in the office or elsewhere.
Sec. 3. Members of the Depart
ment must be civil and respectful
to the public, and upon all occas
ions perform their duties with good
temper, discretion and firmness.
"When required by strangers, they
must give information as to the
route to the hotel, which the strang
er seeks, and if necessary, and not
too far, accompany the inquirer,
or transfer him to the officer on the
next beat.
Sec. 4. Forbearance under provo
cation, and a temperate, though
firm dpnortment will insure a po
liceman support in the discharge of
a .a 1 1 n !n1nof sva nvtlTAl
UlS UUiy, WI1UU it wim.-ui.ui cjivi.tv
manner, or indiscret altercation,
will destroy his individual influ
ence, and may dnnv down public
odium on the whole department
Vulgar or profane language is
never necessary, and should not
fall from the lips of a peace officer.
Sec. 5. Every officer must be neat
in his dress and appearance; his
beard trimmed, and his boots kept
clean in fine weather.
Sec. C Police officers are prohibi
ted from being members of any po
litical nominating convention.
Sec. 7. No member of the depart
ment shall absent himself from the
city without the permission of the
pn'Q';
Sec. S. Each and every police
officer unless ordered on detective
or special duty, shall wear uniform
when on duty and conspicuously
display his star on the left breast of
his outer garment.
Sec. 9. A policeman must be cau
tious never to interfere unnecessari
ly, but when required to act he
should do so with discretion, deci
sion and boldness; ahd' he may ar
rest any one who opposes him in
the execution of his duty. Regular
officers shall, when on duty, carry
a jxilice revolver, whistle and baton.
Officers should be particular not to
draw or present their weapons upon
slight or insufficient cause.
Officers, whether on duty or not,
when appjipd to jy citizens about
the serviceof warrants brsubpoenad,
or for information within the line of
their cuty, will reply cjvjlly, and if
unao0 to aucmif iu iuu uusiuusa
themselves will give the applicant
the necessary information, that his
business may be speedily transacted.
Section 10, Police officers shall
take cognizance of the small boys
who roam about the streets at night,
and if any are found without par
ents or guardians leading Idle or
dissolute lives to bring them before
the Police Judgo for examination.
Hee. J If Officers who are cogniz
ant of any attempt bcjng made to
compromise offences before or du
ring trjal, or leing cognizant of the
commission or any crime, snail im
mediately report the same to the
Chief of Police. They shall also re
port all circumstances which may
come to their knowledge that would
tend to the arrest of criminals or the
prevention of crime. Negligence of
this duty will involve removal from
the force. They shall report all sus
picious persous and places, all bawdy
houses, receiving shops, mock auc
tion shops, second hand dealers,
gaming houses, and all places where
idlers, tipplers, gamblers, prosti
tutes, and other disorderly and sus
picious persons may congregate.
See. 12. All members of the de
partment are prohibited from ma
king assertions or using language
tending to the discredit or reflecting
on, the integrity of police officers
until the facts have been reported
to the CJiief of Police, and action
taken thereon by the Chief of Po
lice. An indulgence in the practice
of scandal and the relating of ru
mors affecting the character of a
brother officer tends to lower the
department in public estimation,
and to create and foster ill feeling
and animosity among the mon, and
as it tends directly to subvert good
discipline, it will render the party
-offending liable to dismissal.
Sec. 13. All reports made in obe
dience to this order must be deliv
ered personally to the Chief of Po
lice. Sec. 14. On the occurrence of fire
in the city all tho oflicers on duty
are to repair" Immediately to the
scene of conflagration and report to
the Chief oi Police or Captain, and
aid in preserving order and prevent
ing the crowd and vehicles from
obstructing tue uremen, and in
guarding property and arresting all
persons found stealing or commit
ting other depredations.
Sec. 15. Officers on street duty
are required to perambulate their
beats constantly during their tour of
duty, keeping a vigilant watch for
tir-, and offenses against persons
aim property aim against tue public
peace, and In no case shall they
leave their beat without permission,
except in pursuit of official duty of
pressing importance or necessity
arising during their tour of duty and
not admitting time to ask permis
sion. Sec 10. Officers whose boats
cover houses of Ill-fame, will bo held
resiKHisible for the preservation of
order and decency on the streets.
"Women of the town must not dis
play themselves at their doors or
windows to invite custom, nor so
licit custom on the stieets.
See. 17, Any police officer who
may bo under tho influonoe of In
toxicatinc: liquor, while on duty.
shall be removed from the force.
Sec. IS. Officers while on
watch shall not visit any drinking
house, house of ill-fame, ball, thea
tre, circus or any other place of
amusement except on discharge of
their duty.

The two young fellows who,
with Harry Lynch, now in jail,
broke into Judge Porter's house,
O'Keefe's tailor shop, and other
places in this city recently, were ar
rested at Sioux City, yesterday, on
a telegram from Sheriff Burley.
Their photographs were taken and
sent to Omaha, ai riving here yester
day. Harry Lynch, their pal, rec
ognized them at once as his part
ners in crime. One of the burglari
ous youths had on Ed. Haney's hat,
which they stole from Judge Por
ter's house. They are a regular
gang of burglars, having been pro
vided, when they set out on their
tour, with a complete set of house
breaking instruments. They are
held for a requisition, which Sheriff
Burley will obtain at Lincoln to
morrow. Mr. Burley deserves con

with which he has worked up this
case to a successful! termination.

Columbus, May 22, 1874.
Editor Bee :
I arrived In Omaha March 2d,
and have, since that date, been go
ing about in various parts of Ne
braska. I am so pleased with most
that I have seen that I would like
to give your eastern readers the re
sults of my observations.
The first thing is about the cli
mate. It has been very even and
pleasant for travelers and farmers.
It would take a great deal of bad
weather in Nebraska to hinder trav
eling and farming, for the soil and
the surface generally are such as to
drain off nicely. This spring there
has been rain enough, in gentle
showers, to make plowing, sowing
and planting very easy, and no
heavy rains to make floods or bad
roads, or to hinder the plow. There
has not been a day since I came
when an ordinary team could not be
easily driven 40 to 50 miles in any
part of the country.
the crops.
People say that the spring is rath
er backward, but all crops are look
ing well.
Wheat was generally sown from
March 20th to April 10th, and looks
very promising. I notice all over
the country that a large proportion
of the broke land is sown with
wheat Nearly all the farmers in
tend to sow corn in the new break
ing, though thousands of acre3 are
planted in the old.
Oats looks equally well; butno
great breadth is sown.
Corn is now generally planted,
and much of it well up. On the 1st
day of May I saw a field of 70 acres,
so well up that I could discern the
rows quite a distance. At this date
the rows are plain to the eye half a
mile off.
- 'Timothy On the 15th of May, I
examined ft patch of ten acres,
evenly and well set. I had the
curiosity to take up and measure
one bunch,' and it measured 18
inches. This timothy will no doubt
grow to the height of five feet.
trees.
I observe in all parts the rapid
growth of Safest" trees, principally
cotton wood, ' that are planted in
groves and rows around the farms.
I have learned from good authority
that these trees, when well cared
for, grow about one inch in diamter
and about five feet in height every
year. At this rate any man can qon
have his fyelQh flvg'to ten acres,
right at his qoor,

stone.
In some parts I have seen, fine
specimens of limestone suitable, for
aboundln all parts', but'the'quarries
I have ' examined are extensive
enough to supply the whole State so
soon as th,ere shall' be raUroads to
carry it about
progress,
What impresses me the most is
the rapid improvement going on
everywhere,
There is soaroely a township in
which new frame houses do not
glitter in the sunlight in great num
bers, and in which the breaking
plow is not cutting the long black
furrows. Towns and villages, with
their dwellings, stores, machine
shops, printing offices, school houses,
and churches ore springing into ex
istence in all the counties.

As a rule, the settlers in Nebraska
are workers. All the settlements
are young swarms of bees from old
hives. The drones have stayed be
hind to eat the honey. The work
ers have taken wing and are gather
ing sweetness from the flowers of
the great prairies. It is astonishing
what actfvity 'rpyiils fn'thisnew

The necessities of substance, the
hope of gain, the pride of in
dependence, the stimulus of rivalry
all unite with the bright skies,
brisk breezes and life-giving ah of
Nebraska to make men and women
and children rise early, walk and
talk fast and push on their work.
Nebraska must certainly soon be a
great State.
