; t Ls hoped will be acted upon. A
small sum will thus bt > obtained

The dead body of a young girl ,
in an advanced state of decomposi

south of the Bohemian beer garden ,
yesterday afternoon by some chil
dren. Coroner Glsh was notified ,
and he summoned a jury , who , after
viewing the body , adjourned till 5
p. m. to-day. The remains are now

found in her pocket.

EDITOR BEE :
When the news of the great fire
in Chicago came to our city our
charitable and energetic citizens at
once called s meeting to devise
means to relieve the sufferers.
Among the the many to first respond
to the call was that gentlemanly
manager of the theatre , John A.
Stevens , with a benefit , the whole
proceeds of which he handed over
to the committee. Now why
do not Messrs. Hales and
Stalcy ( Jaffo ) enrole their names
on the columns of charity by
at once getting up a benefit
for the sufferers by the grasshoppers ,
at the Academy of Music or Chegh-
ton's Hall , both of which no doubt
can be had free of charge. The
Arion , Maenncrchor and other
clubs , the U. P. Band and musical
societies generally , no doubt would
cheerfully give their aid. All this ,
with the ladies of the Relief Com
mittee to dispose of the tickets , a
very handsome sum can be realized
in a very short time. We ask the
committee to consider this matter ,
and we hope they will act promptly ,
tor time is precious and the wants
many. Q. W. G.

Extracts from the Omaha "What-
Is-It. "
The general impression seems to
be that the Rosewaterring was bad
ly scooped. Union , Aug. 25ih.
Mr. Rosewater and his favorite
delegates seem to have had the man
agement of the Republican county
convention In this cityonSatuiday.
Union , Aug. Zlst.
The little Ishmael is like a fire
bug here and there telling who
he is , what he has done , and what
ho expects to do. He gets snubbed
on every hand , but ho never gets
insulted , noverdrinksnever smokes ,
and is always claiming to be utter
ing the truth. He is talking for
anybody that will talk for Rosewater
and the senior twilight. One hour
he is predicting what the convention
will do , and the next he is positive
that he wits mistaken. He is ner
vous , wears a careworn look , and
his utter insignificance and repudia
tion by tne republican leaders was
never mare evident to your corre
spondent. While he may feel that
he controlled the Douglas county
convention , he will never be able to
achieve a point at this one. He will
return to Omaha the worst whipped j
man in the rinpr. Union Sept. 3d.
We understand that E. Rosewa
ter and Joel T. Griffin were selected
from the Douglas county delegation
a members of the State Central
Committee , which is evidence
enough that they controlled the del
egation from this county , and with
Stout of the Lancaster delegation ,
run the convention. They were
selling and buying vole. all the
time , did all the ta'king ' , and cut
the throat of every man that dared
to oppose. The convention , as run
by the above named trio , was a
farce , and demonstrates the fact
that an honest republican stands no
show when Rosewater , Stout , Pat
O'Hawes , Griffin and Swecsy ma
nipulate the wires. Union , Sept.
