A case of wife-beating occurred last evening on Tenth btreet, in a house not far from Thiele's garden.

The Pacific Bail way Where is that inm of $1850 gone tot The question of the terminus of the Union Pacific road was virtually settled to-day for this session. In the Senate Committee, it was post poned. In the House, an attempt was made to suspend the rules and pass the bill making Council Bluffs the terminus, but it received only 27 aflirmatlve votes. Inter Ocean. Now the poor people of this city who are burdened with taxes, wish to know where their Sl,850 is. Had McDill, Chapman, Lawrence and all of Iowa's congressmen and sen ators only influence enough to get 27 votes out of 250? And when Mr. Houghton moved to suspend the rules and pass the bill declaring the bridge to be a part of the con tinuous line of the Union Pacific railway, Chapman, McDill and our $1,850 did not have influence enough to get a second. The facts are, that because a few aristocrats nnd "gentlemen" of the rich men's-dub expressed a will to have some uf their members go to Washington, our Aldermen have imposed an.unlawful and oppresive tax on the poor people of this city, to accommodate these "gentlemen" and Chapman.

Eastern Fish for the Waters of the Golden .State. Receiving a dispatch this morning from Livingstone Stone, United States Fish Commissioner, that "the California Aquarium car would reach here yesterday, on its way to California, a Bek reporter proceeded to the depot and awaited, its arrival. It came over with the transfer train, was immediately switched off, and taken to the shops by an engine for repairs, and to have a new set of wheels put under it at once, a3 it had a hot box. While this work was being done the Bee reporter had an excellent opportuni ty of learning many interesting faces. The car itself is an express car, fitted up especially for this purpose. The car is supplied with numerous tanks of water, in which are over thirry-six thousand fish of all sizes. Fresh air is constantly being pumped into these tanks by two pumps which are worked by a belt attached to the axle of the car. The water is purified by this means. Mr. Livingstone travels with the car, and has five employes, Mr. Myron Groen being in charge. These gentlenien allfcleep in the car, comfortable bunks being provided for that purpose. Among the fish contained in the tank were 200 large sized black bass, and glass-eyed pike, from Lake Champlain; 30,000 small shad from the Hudson river; 1500 fresh and saltwater eels: 500 tautogs, a salt water fish. There is also a large number of trout, which belong to Mr. Stone himself. The car started from Charleston, N. H., last Thursday, and thus far the trip has been very successful, but a few fish having died. It cost about $4,000 to make the collection, and the transportation will cost about $5,000 more. A fresh invoice of ice was taken on at this point, and at Etkhorn and Laramie fresh water wM be procured for the over land tourists. About a year ago, it will be re membered, a similar car, but hav ing on board a much more expen sive cargo, was wrecked in the acci dent at Elkhorn bridge, and the fish all escaped into the river. Some of the present attendants were on board at that time, and have a vivid recollection of that event. The car went west on the 11:30 Union Pacific train. California is making a big cflort to stock her lakes and rivers, and other waters, with fish of every variety, and in Mr. Stone, the right man for the enterprise, has been found. rourth of July, 1874. Spring Grove Farm, 1 June Cth, 1S74. J Editor Bee: The celebration by the Grangers is a guaranteed success. Hon. Geo. W. Crawford, and Major J. W. Davis, will be orators of the day.

And last but not least, every lady is invited to come and trip the light fantas tic, to the magnificent music of the Barrack's band. S. J. C. Fresh strawberries picked to-day, at (It) Allen's. Hone Manufactures. A day or two since we called on Mr. F. D. Cooper, the old reliable agricultural dealer of this city, and were astonished at the large num ber of reapers that he is sending out every day, and we were pleased to learn the reapers were made in our own city. We have reference to the "Omaha New Manny Com bined Reaper and Mower." He has testimonials from all parts of the country recommending this machine very highly, and as a proof of the merits of this machine, he has calls for them from Kansas and out in the mountain regions and throughout Colorado, where no is shipping them to every little while. Now farmers at home look to your interests, and if you want a Reaper that will make money for you, get a "New Manny" before they are all gone. From the nmnerous testimonial?, we learn that the chief attractions of this machine are, its thorough workmanship, simplicity, lightness of draft, and Its good work in the field. It is light, perfectly put to gether, simple, raises and lowers easily, and runs easy, being lighter draft than any other combined ma chine worked beside it in trials or In the field. In reaper trials it has worked in extreme of long, short, thin, thick, standing and lodged grain, with out any change or adjustment of the rake, showing that little skill is required toget good results. Now, in conclusion, we will ad vise every farmer to give his order for this machine that is made at home. Forty-one machines were ordered from different localities last week. The Manny stands ready to-day to compete against any ma chine in the market, and will prove to you just what is claimed for it, and will go out any day and work against any machine made.

June2-10t BEATING A BURGLAR. A Thief is Clubbed Down a Lad der, and He Eeturns the Compliment by a Re volver Shot. Yesterday morning about 3 o'clock Prof. S. D.'Beals, residing on Daven port street, between Twenty-first and Twenty-second, was awakened from his slumbers, by a noise sound ing like somebody pounding against the side of the house. Jumping out of bed, and going to the open win dow, he saw a man climbing up a a ladder, which he had placed asrainst the wall. The Professor had no loaded weapons conveniently at hand, and the only thing he could think of was an old, stout and heavy hickory cane, standing in a corner of the room. This cane had been obtained by the Professor, nianj years ago, in the old capitol building, in which he was employed at one time. Having become well accustomed to the use of a cane during his days of teaching the young ideas how to shoot, he grabbed up that cane with the same eager familiarity with which an old soldier picks up a musket to display his agility and skill in the manual of arms to the astonishment and admiration of a crowd of by-standers, and station ing himself at the window, he had not long to wait for the bold, aspir ing, intruding, plundering burglar. As soon as his head came in sight, Professor Beals raised the cane, took aim, and let fly, but instead of splitting open the fellow's head, he hit the window sill, breaking off a piece of wood, and tearing off the cateli. The stick happened to be too long, and thus the burglar es caped a merited caning. Not liking the unwelcome and unexpected reception given him, r he immediately began retreating. Professor Beals struck two other blows at him, the last one hitting him on the shoulder, and knocking him off the ladder. Just at this moment, Mrs. Beals, who had come to the window and looked out, drew her head in as she saw the flash of a revolver, the loud report instantly following. After firing probably only to frighten Professor Beals the burglar disap peared. The entering of houses through open windows during the present summer, seems to be a favorite pas time with the burglar fraternity, and people therefore cannot be too careful about securing their valu ables in some safe place.
