John Crowley , a soldier whc had been discharged and paid of ] only five days ago , was before the Police Court this morning on the charge of drunkenness. Ho was dead-broke 'twas ever thus from childhood's hour and he w"as ac cordingly discharged. John Svaciua was bound ovei Tuesday by Justice Bsrtlett in tht sum of $500bailwhlch be furnished , to answer to the charge of stabbing one Kubias at the Bobcmian beci garden a week ago last Sunday eve ning. The other complaints of as sault and battery arising out of this affray , were withdrawn. John Hogan , who glories in the reputation of being a bruiser , created some excitement on Tenth street street Tuesday night about ten o'clock , by unmercifully poundIng - Ing a fellow , who was not in any way his equal. This same Hogan was going to fight a prize fight last Sunday on morning on the "sands" but he didn't have enough "sand" to come to time and back up his pretensions. Two more of the "original thir teen oppressed editors , proprietors , and compositors" of the Union , have withdrawn from the concern. This leaves but very few of the original number. What's the matter with the boys ? It may be that their manly honesty would not permit them to longer remain with an or gan that has sold out to the postal ring. A man named William G. IcWilliains was lound sleeping off a drunk in a passenger car Tucs- night , and taken to jail. He stated this morning at the Police Court that he had lost his pocket book con taining u railroad time check for la bor and $9.00 m money. The pock et book was found in the morning in the water closet of the car , but its contents had disappeared. Judge lake lias Issued a man damus "commanding Mayor Chase io grant license to Harry Clayton to sell liquor. This order arises from hefoctthat the mayor refused to issue a license to Mr. Clayton after he bad forfeited it the second time since Mayor Chase was elected , by being convicted of permuting gam bling in his saloon. The mayor re fused to grant license , claiming that it-was forfeited for tbe full time it had been granted. .

Henry Schneider , living on Nicholas btreet , near tbe Omaha and Northwestern depot , made complaint before Judge Peabody yes terday that he had been assaulted by Daniel Sweeny. His face and head , which were fearfully battered up and bloody , corroborated his statements. It seems that he had tied a colt to Sweeny's fence , which the animal tore down , and hence the assault. Sweeny and his brother John afterwards threatened another assault if he didn't iix the fence up before noon. A warrant of arrest for assault and battery was issued asainst Daniel Sweeny , and also a warrant for him and'his brother on another camplaint charging tbcm with threatening oodily injury. Daniel Sweeny , after the row , im mediately came down and made complaint of himself before Judge Wilbur who fined him Sl-00 and costs. Sweeny then made a com plaint against Schneider charging him with disturbance of the peace by uf-ing profane and obscene lan guage to Airs. Sweeny. Persozmi. Hon.

Tuesday afternoon at about five o'clock , a man who refused to pay bis fare on the dummy train as it was crossing the bridge for Omahh , was put off tuo cars. A few mo ments afterwards this man , know ing that he could not pass the sen try at this end of the bridge without a pass , rather than go back to Coun cil Bluffs , jumped from tbo bridge to the sands below , a distance of sixty feet , landing uninjured. Ho picked himself up , and walked southward. That he made the fear ful jump there is no doubt , as he was noticed ono moment on the bridge by Engineer Rafferty , of the dummy , and Conductor Jenks , of a freight train , and the next instant ho was seen by them on the sands. How he escaped injury or instant death is a miracle. SPECIAL NOTICES. NOTICE.
