They are suspended from the walls by means of gimlet books. When not in use, they can be folded up against ihe wall out of the way. A few good, "live" young men can make large wages by selling these goods in Omaha, as this seems to be a first-class invention, and, we doubt not, will realize the Inven tor a fortune. The Xetehia Case. Yesterday morning a motion in ar restof judgment in the case of Charles Ketcham 'as filed by Mr. Doane, his attorney, the grounds of the motion being : First, that the facts stated in tho first count of the in dictment do not constitute an of fense under the law. Second, that several different and distinct acts of embezzlement are included in the first count of the indictment; and Third, that the issue presented and tried by the second count of said indictment remain undisposed of by the verdict of the jury. The motion was argued by Mr. Doane and District Attorney Con nell, and Judge Lake took It under advisement, intimating that at the present time he was inclined to hold in favor of the motion. Should he decide to grant the motion, it would end the present case and the defendant could only be proceeded against by another indictment. THIELE'S HALL AND GARDEN. 4TH OF JULY CELEBRATION.

The Latest Exploit of XoWtters, the SeipenUo- From Sheriff Farbar, who has just returned from a western tour on business, we learn, says the Ne braska City Press, the following particulars regarding McWaters, so well known to our people. On the 29th of May, the land lord' of a hotel in Hays City, Kan sas, bent 'word "to "Sheriff Ramsey, that a man answering d'escrjptions he held, was at his house. While Sheriff Ramsey war reading the description, McWaters stepped up to him and looked over his shoulder. Sheriff Ramsey looked at him, then at a description he had in his pocket and called to Mc., who had walked away. Mo. came back and Ranjsey arrested him and put 1dm in jail under his deputy, with injunctions to shoot him if he attempted to escape. Mechanics were at this time putting in a cage in the cell, and were wqrking. The deput3 watched his prisoner and the day soon passed away. When night came on Mo offered the jailor $100 to let him go back to the hotel. This the deputy refused. In the morning while the workmen wore engaged in working at the cae the deputy "Sheriff tojd them to be care nil aiid shut the fJotfF close when they went out. Shortly afterwarJs ono of the mechanics went put and closed the door but it rebounded open. Quick as JJglitn'jng McWa ters .shot through it and closed it after him, effectually locking the deputy and two mechanics in the cejl. Ho then quietly walked past tbe other mpphanjp out to where a fine horse belong ing to the postmaster of the city was picketed which he rode away, Sheriff Ramsey wno was jn Ells worth returned homo immediately upon the receipt of a telegram In forming him of his escape. He then followed him up into Furnas county, of this State. Here he met an emigrant whom he engaged to arrest him if he could. The emigrant rode into camp on Beaver 1'reek, and there found McWaters.
