They left the city about three o'clock in the morning , and got caught in the terrific thunder , lightning and rain stoim that took after . Although place shortly day-break. though their clothes were drenched , their spirits were not dampened , judging from the day's hunt , which resulted In the death of thirty chickens. It is said that as e ch chicken rose , all the gentlemen fired at it simultaneous ly , and if it was brought down , each claimed the honor of having killed It , and the ladies were called upon to decide the matter , which they did with as much impartiality as was possible under the exciting and humorous circumstances. r-erconai.

Mr. Charles Aumock , living in Saratoga precinct , is having his house enlarged and painted , and for the last two or three evenings , he has been obliged to leave the doors and windows open on account of the smell of paint. Sunday night some thief entered the house without any trouble , while the occupants were asleep , and helped himself to two complete suits of clothes , including boots , stockings , and hats. The theft was not discovered till in the morning , when the persons to whom the clothes belonged , were surprised to find the garments gone. Mr. Aumock has before this lost several articles , such as a watch , money , etc. , but has never been able to trace the crime to any one. He will give a handsome reward either for the capture of the thief or the clothes. Theatrical Holes. Manager George D. Irish re turned Sunday morning after a prolonged absence in the East. Ho has made very satisfactory engage ments for the Academy of Music for the fall and winter season. He pro poses also to have the theatre re paired , painted , and otherwise ren ovated , after the State Fair. We think it is about time , for in its present condition it is hardly fit for anything. The proprietors are abundantly able to expend a little money on this the only theatre building in the city We have received a circular from John A. Stevens , announcing him to appear in "Robert of Wood- leigh , " at Robinson's Opera House , at Cincinnati , Sept. 14th. "Robert ofWoodleigh" is a Virginian rom ance , written by Philip Stoner , and purchased from him by Stevens at a cost of $1200. Stevens is now "star ring" it , and has a repertoire of eight plays. Ho will play for four weeks sometime this winter on manager Irish's circuit. The funny Yokes family arc coming.rlhey will play here Sept. 15 and 1C. The Hales-Jappho benefit takes place to-morrow evening at the Academy of Music. These two local favorites will be assisted by a strong company , and a splendid programme , full of variety , will be presented. Give the boys a full house , as they deserve it. The Turf Saturday's Races. The first race Saturday afternoon at the Driving Park , was for gentle men's trotting roadsters , mile heats , best three in five , for a purse of $50. The race was won by Ed. Patrick's "Lottie , " but as it was claimed by the other contestants that this was a race horse , as well as the horse "Nelse" from Blair , a protest was made , and the judges took the mat ter under advisement. Time of "Lottie" 3:09 : ; 3:12 : ; 310. ; In the running race which fol lowed , between "Buckskin" and "Legal Tender , " half mile heats , best 2 in 3 , for [ a purse of § 50 , the former woa in two straight heats in 56 seconds each. The running race between "Ram bler , " "Davy Crockett , " and "Lady Gray , " half mile heats , best 2 in 3 , for a purse of $50 , was Avon by "Rambler" in the last two heats in 55 and 50. The first heat was won byCrockett" in 53 , Polack has this day received a well assorted stock of youth's , bov's and children's clothing , which will be sold at prices that defy competi tion. aug24tl ) Ball Items. An excellent and exciting match game of base ball was played on the Elkhorn grounds Saturday afternoon between the Quickstep club of Council Bluffs , and the Resolutes of this city. The boys ill being light weights , the good playing was the more appreciated by the many of our citizens who were irosent. The score of the game was [ 8 to 10 in in favor of the Quick- iteps , but it is no more than Justice : o our boys to state that they fairly md squarely beat the "Bluffs" club. Dn the last half of the ninthlnning he Quicksteps being at the bat , the icore then being 16 to 15 in favor of he Resolutes , with two men out md a man on the second base. 3arkalow , of the Resolutes , touched he man upon the second when he the player ) was two feet from iis base , thereby fairly end- tig the game in favor ot the Reso- jtes ; but the umpire , however , fati ng to be looking at the players at liat moment , the game proceeded nd was won Dy the boys from the i < lluffi. We make these detailed ' latemente as a matter of justice to le Resolutes , as they did in every articular evidence superior playing i that of the Bluffs club , and as we gard them , everything considered , ic best club in the city , it is the h ( lore creditable to the Quicksteps di present such a good score. 18H Anew club , the Herculean Bat 16 nashers by name , is being organ- of ed , andjrom the tone of their ime , we shall expect some scien- ic ball poundinff. Ihe Resolute club has pur- ased a neat and tidy suit blue id white pants , white flannel W irts , and blue flannel pants. tin TheMilo club has selected as ha ltsgray flannel pants , white shirts , Bi d the new regulation hats. All the clubs in the city are now wi icticing regularly , having the ite Fair tournament in view , at lich time we feel assured Omaha 11 be well represented. E OREAA1 ! ICE CREAM ! a. li.

A Bugle Blast from the Trades' Assembly. As members of the Trades' As sembly , and laboring in the Inter ests of working men , we regret to be compelled to differ with the Omaha Union in its gratulations to worklngmen on the promotion of Charles Parcell from the tread mill to the postal car. As far as we can understand , he has obtained this appointment by misrepresentations and hypocrisy. Only about four weeks ago he pub licly declared in the Trades' Assem bly that the Republican party was rotten to the core , and ho advised workingmen of the Trades' Assem bly to make any combination that would beat the Republican party in the coming campaign. At the next meeting he advised us to wait for further developments , for there was some thing brewing to "bust" the Repub licans. Now , while many of us are Republicans and others are Demo- crats.we don't thank Senator Hitch cock for appointing men who play double. We also deshe to denounce the conduct of the Union in compro mising the Trades' Assembly by puffing Parcel in his ambiguous role. MANY WORKINGMEX , of Trades' Assembly.
