Schneck , of Columbus ; Rev. George
Buttiff , of Monticello , Iowa , and
Rev. Hullhaust , of Saunders county ,
Nebraska.
That old citizen , Mr. A. Minski ,
as is well known , has long owned a
little yellow dog , vhich has ever
held a warm place in the affection
of his master. Whenever any one
kicks that dog , his master invaria
bly considers himself kicked. With
him it is , "Kick my dog , and you
kick me. " His strong affection for
the canine has often been the means
of getting him into trouble , and for
it is a notorious fact that a yellow
dog gets kicked and abused oftener
than any other kind. The color
seems to be an unfortunate one for
the canine race. Sunday after
noon ns Minski and his faithful dog
were wending thejr way to Turner
Hall , on Tenth street , they met
Maurice Dee. Mr. D. when passing
Mr. Minski , gave his little yellow
dog a kick. "You're a d d fool , "
exclaimed the indignant Mr. Min
sk ! , Mr. Dee didn't think
so , and at once proceeded to back
his opinion by pitching intp Mr.
Minski , who drew his umbrella and
deferded himself. Mr. Dee cap
tured the umbrella nnd then used
it on Mr. Minski , hitting him over
the nose , which was badly
bruised. Mr. Minski's ever faith-
fill companion , the little yellow dog ,
assisted by another larger canine ,
now came to the help of hfs lovjng
master. The two dogs grabbed hold
of Dee's pantaloons and did not let
go until they had torn them into
shreds , from thp knees down , and
the big dog had bitten Mr , Pee ses
vcrcly in several places on the legs.
The fight then endeJ , and the well-
amused crowd dispersed. A war
rant h s been issued ior Mr. Dee on
the charge of fighting and disturb
ing the peace.

A FUGITIVE COUNT.
He Fights a Duel on Account of
an Actress , is Obliged to
Ply , and is now in
Omaha.
There arrived in this city on
Saturday a noble young Hungarian ,
named William , Count of Attohl ,
aged'twenty-three years , who has
recently passed through an adven
turous career. He comes from a
very influential family , his father
being a wealthy banker. Young
William was educated in the mili
tary Academy of Australia for the
nobility. He speaks several lan
guages fluently , but does not know
a word of English. Receiving the
appointment of second lieutenant ,
he was stationed at Triest , on the
Baltic. He there was so unfortun
ate as to fall in love with an actress.
He finally became involved in a
duel with a brother officer , who had
insulted his theatrical sweet
heart , and in the exchange of shots
he received a wound in the wrist ,
while his opponent did ufot
escape unharmed. As duelling
was strictly forbidden by .law ,
William , of Altohl , was com
pelled to avoid a severe penalty by
flight. He sought refuge in a sail
ing vessel , which came round .by
Qibralter to this country , making
the voyage a long one of several
months , during which the fugitive
suffered severely from illness. He
paid his passage with his diamonds ,
and upon landing in New York he
raised some money by pawning his
watch and uniform , which was very
costly. He then eame West , inten
ding to go to Cheyenne , where he
will visit a brother officer , who is
there for his health , and who is
abuadantly supplied with money.
His family have no idea of his
whereabouts , but he proposes to im-
djately inform thpnii and h. § h8s
hopes of his father being able to ob
tain u pardon for him from the Em
peror. He left for Cheyenne yes
terday morning.
The Excursion to St. Paul , Minneapolii
and other Northern Points.
Quite a largp number of ladjes
and gentlemen from this city , as
well as from Lincoln , Fremont ,
Plattsmoutb , Nebraska City , and
other towns , are purchasing tickets
for the coming excursion to St. Paul ,
, Minneapolis , and Lake Superior.
Itfr , grftttan , the agent of tfce St.
Paul & Sioux City road , has , we are
Informed , arranged with the prom
inent hotels along the route for a
reduction of usual fares to nearly
one } } lf.
Fishing and other excursions will
be improvised to the various beauti
ful lakes in Minnesota , and every
facility afforded to visit the rapids
of the St. Croix river , the St. An
thony and Miunehaha falls in the
vicinity of Minneapolis.and other
scenery for which Minnesota is so
well noted.
The train leaves Omaha with
Pullman cars from the U. P. Depot ,
at the time advertised.
Mr. Gratton will accompany the
excursionists and take special pains
to make the trip agreeable to every
body.
Altogether , this trip promises to
be a most enjoyable one. Return
and lay-over tickets will be good for
thirty days after starting , but we are
informed naiie will be good from
Omaha after tfie train leaves.

POSTAL PECCADILLOES.
"Money Talks" Failure of an
Attempt to Buy Bye off.
Furious Furay Would Have
Liked long ago to Have
Said , "Good-Bye ,
Mr. Bye. "
The publication in the BEE of
Saturday of the charges against
Postmaster Yost caused considera
ble talk in the city. The investiga
tion will probably take J place this
week , us Special Agent HawJey is
expected here to-day for that
purpose. The membersofthepostal
ring are greatly agitated over the
matter , and arc doingeverythingto
turn public opinion in their favor.
In fact they are publicly attempting
to good-naturedly laugh the affair
down , while on the other side , on
the sly , they are vigorously
trying to compromise and hush
it up , by first threatening witnesses
.with removal from the postal ser
vice , and then , after intimidation
has failed , they throw out a money
bait for the witnesses to bite at.
But thus far , both schemes have not
panned out worth a cent. In sub
stantiation of these statements , \\e
will cite the case of F.R. Bye , the
postal clerk who preferred the
charges against Yost They have
tried to frighten him with threats of
dismissal and of preferring charges
againsc him. It was reported also
that an attempt had been made to
buy him off for two thousand del
lars. Yesterday we accordingly
Interviewed Bye , and got ills own
statement which speaks for itself.
According to his statement he was
approached by a certain party , n
gentleman of considerable notoriety
as being deeply interested in "noble
charities. " This was about a week
< ! was approached , "says Mr.Bye ,
"by an offer of money for a promise
that I would withdraw my proceed
ings and charges and tnke my
transfer and go out of town. "
"I was told I was goinginto this
thing , and would make nothing by
it , ajiu ! wa.s Informed that money
The party , according to Bye , then
used substantially the following
language to him 5 ' 'Now here , you
can make some money out of this ,
If you. go } n.o this you will probably
remove Yost and Furay from the
service , but if you do not you can
make nothing. You have been at
an expense in going to Washington
twice , and it has cost you $500. As
a frie nd , Jf you say Jt , I'll see those
parties , and have them make up the
money you have lost by them , and
you can take a transfer , which has
already been offered you , to an east
ern road , and can take the money
for your pocket. "
Mr. Bye replied , "If those fellows
have sent you to buy me , they have
mistaken their man. Both of them
together have not got money enough
to buy me , although J am not worth
a dollar. "
- "Wei ! , " was the reply , "that's
the kind of a man that will suit me.
I shall run a business in Kansas in
a short time , which will be
as honorable and honest as running
apostoffice. You're the very kind
of a man I want to run it. "
"Well , " said Bye"if I couldn't run
it any more honestly than the post-
office lias been run , then I don't
want to run it ; but if you have got
an honest and square business , I am
your man. " . . ,
The above statement Mr. Bye
stands ready to verify by affidavit
at any time. In regard to specjal
njajl agent Furay , he says :
{ 'Before I wnt tq Washington ,
Furay came to my house , We had
a Conversation , Furay said , ' -Byo ,
you have got to shut j'our mouth in
regard to Yost and myself. This
talking on the street Ave will not

do not want to remove you from the
sprvlpp. Ygur fflmjlv ajreadv sa :

who was in a bad humor because
you put' your papers on file for a
special's commission. Mr. Crounse
is a great friend of miueand , will do
anything for me. ' "
"Now Mr , Epray , " Bye replied ,
"I do not know anything in regard
to those men withdrawing" from my
endorsement. Probably they have ,
but I do not know why. I have
said nothing but what I can prove.
In regard to the mail contract

yourself , there are some reports /
about you. It is reported you were

you believed him to be an honest
man. "
"I told him ( Furay ) if they could
remove me tor telling the truth ,
they had better do it. Furay told
me , 'We don't wish to remove you ,
but you must stop this talking or it

Past , Present , and Future of He-

. OMAHA , July 20.
EDITOR OSIAIIA BEE :
" ' ' * J"\
Having spent over four months
since ebbut the first of March in
various parts of Eastern Nebraska ,
I wouldlike to say a few things in
your widely circulated paper , about
the pastpresent and future of this
promisingTstate.
I wasC'fi'ret here in 1S5C , and have
beenlat intervals many times since.
Wh'eiTrfirst jaw Omaha it was a
mere village of about 500 inhabi
tants , and all the hills and valleys
westwardwere one great wild waste
of grass , beasts and savages.
Jn 18591 was here again and went
up the Platte valley some distance.
Here and there'on the old military
road was a ranche for the accommo
dation of the"iinmense number then
coing to the western mines. Fre
mont was then ojnly a clump of
three or four log cabins.
'
At that time , th'e Platte valley
was Nebraska. j-It , was ascertained
that grain would grow and ripen ,
that meadow grass was plenty and
that wood and.water on the Platte
river would supply a few Inhabi
tants. None had yet ventured
back from the river. The lands on
the bluffs were considered absolute
ly worthless. Everybody said that
they would never be occupied or
cultivated. They would do for wild
animals and Indians , nothing else.
Now'what do we'see ? Omaha is
a city of 20,000 inhabitants , with a
property value of $20,000,000. The
bluffs and table lands for 200 milea
west of the Missouri , clear across
' the State from/Kansas to the Nio-
brara.are dot ted , all over with little
frame houses , with fields of corn ,
oats , barley and flax , with herds of
cattle , and-with blocks aud-helts of
fresh breaking. \
This one fact settles the destiny
of Nebraska. The Platte valley ds
ho longer Nebraska. The .whole
State is cut by numerous little
rivers and creeks with rich valleys
from half a mile to five miles wide.
These valleys are some better for
corn and hay , but it is now plain
that the table lands , all things con
sidered , are nearly if not entirely
equal to the bottoms. There js n.o
questjon any longer about the
whole of Eastern Nebraska , bluffs
and all , being a fine farming and
grazing country.
Nebraska seems to be taking a
fresh start , this year. From the best
evidence I can get , no less than 80- ,
000 souls will be added to her popu
lation this year , and as many acres
of sod wjH be turned over in 1874 as
in all former years put together ,
kind of small
Every grain r0p
already secure as gt all chances ,
and tli c0"m bids' fan.t There will
be abundance of everything for the
present inhabitants and for the
thousands that will flock here before
winter. The soil and surface of Ne
braska are such as to make farming
easy. I have seen the whole process
thisyearfrom early spring plowing ,
sowing and planting to barley and
wheat harvest. The land stands
any kind of weather and is easy on
machinery. One thing I would es
pecially notice. In every county
there is plenty of water power for
mills and factories.
The best powers are on the smal
lest streams narrow , deep , and
rapid , with light banks , and are fed
by streams , so as never to fail. In
any county , there is at least one
such stream , on which a fifteen
feet head can be raised , without
overflowing an acre of laud out of
the banks , and with force enough
the year around , to run three pairs
of burs day and night. What is
next wanted is the improvement of
these water powers , in the erection
of flour mills , oil mills , and wool
mills , for Nebraska will be hard to
btat for wheat , flax and wool.
These should be manufactured at
home , and not so much sentabroad.
The erection of factories would
greatly increase the amount and va
riety of labor , bring capital from the
East , and retain much more of the
earnings of the people within the
State.
I predict a grand future for Ne
braska as a farming country. And
it is the farm that makes the world.
All wealth comes out of the ground.
I leave your fair State , Mr. Editor ,
greatly pleased , and Avith hopes
of hereafter contributing my mite to
the woptjerfuj progress of a State' , '
which in an'agricultural respect , is
to stand among the first in the
Union. WALTER CRAIG.
