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. Council Bluffs Ke-

THE CALIFORNIA AQUARIUM
CAR.
.
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.

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.

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.
