Tlie Party at Anmoolc's.
The social party held at Mr. Au-
raock's in Saratoga on Thursday
evening , was a very enjoyable af
fair , and a perfect success , it being
the first of the series to be given
during the winter. Most of the old
people of the neighborhood attend
ed , making it very interesting for
the younger folks. They will surely
be there again. Those who drove
out from town , left fully satisfied
and highly pleased with the even
ing's pleasure. The music was ex
cellent , and the luxurious supper
was enjoyed by all. Dancing com-
monped at about eight o'clock , and
ended at a little after two. None
know better how to make all feel at
ease than Mr. Aumock , assisted by
his estimable lady and her sons.
Felloe Court Iteng ,
William Winters , over whose
lead many a summer has passed ,
was fined So 00 at the Police Court
for drunkenness.

ness , was discharged.
Stephen Sallie , a peddjer who
has been sallying about the cquntry
without a license , was arrested and
fined $5 00 for the offense.
Stephen Brown , who kicked up
a disturbance of the peace by fight
ing , had his pile diminished by a
fiye dollar fine jmposed by Judge
Wilbur.
MeMna Bushncll , in default
ot a fine for prostitution , was coni-
mitted to Jail. Her line was paid
by a J. P. , and she was discharged.
"Pleasant Houri. "
The opening "Pleasant Hours"
party of the winter season was given
at the Grand Central Friday eve- {
nlng , and was a brilliantaffuir. The
attendance was quite large , but not
too much so for the enjoyment of
all. Dancing began at nine o'clock
and concluded at twelve.
Everybody seemed pleased with
the happy and sociable manner in
which the pwty passed off. This
gratifying result was owing to the
efforts of the leading members of
the club to make all feel at home
a feature which characterizes this
social organization , and makes the
name "Pleasant Hours" decidedly
appropriate.

A Rooster Story.
A rooster thatcro.vs early in the
morning , at the break-o'-day-is a
good thing "sometimes , especially
when you want to get up early.
Such a bird is appreciated by early
risers , but when a rooster begins
crowing at precisely ten o'clock at
night , and continues it , with slight
variations all night long he becomes
a monotonous nuisance in the
neighborhood where he is accus
tomed to proudly strut and defiantly
flap his wings. The rooster , which
has suggested this article , was an
all night rooster. We - say was ,
because that rooster has
ceased to exist he no longer dis
turbs the rei > ese of tlie sleepers in
that vicinity ; no more do his un
timely screechings interrupt the
sweet and earnest conversations of
Billy and his adored. > Billy , we
will inform the reader , Is a young
gentleman who is fond of the ladies
generally , and of one in particular.
He has been in the habit ot making
late calls at the house of his sweet
ness , who .seems , to appreciate his
lively and interesting society. Billy
had it all his own way for some time ,
till the "old man" finally got a little
tired of it , and so expressed himself.
Billy , however , though generally
very quick to take a hint , was very
slow to comprehend the "old man's"
flxpressed wishes. Now it so hap
pened that the father was the owner
of the above mentioned rooster , and
one night just at ten o'clock , as the
noble bird had announced the hour ,
he rapped on the parlor walls with
his cane , and remarked"It's get
ting late. " Billy , in a few moments ,
concluded to go home.
At each of the next half dozen
calls that Billy made , that con
founded rooster would inevitably
set up his crowing at 10 o'clock , and
the -"old man" would follow with a
chorus of raps on the waJJ.
The young mau thought this state
of affairs was getting decidedly
monotonous. So one night , on his
way home , he laid a plan to beat
both the rooster and the "old man. "
He calka ap tbe house a lew even
ings ago , and successfuljy carrjeji
out his pl n , which resulted in the
rooster's death. A few minutes be
fore 10 o'clock Billy slyly slfpped
out of doors , and perceiving the
rooster sitting on tlje fence , prepar
ing to crow , he sneaked up to him ,
and grabbing him by the throat ,
wrung his neck.
He returned triumphantly to the
parjor , and telling his adored what
he bad done , tljey had a good laugh
over the matter , and congratulate
themselves on being left alone. The
hour of ten passed by , and no raps
were heard. The night wore on ,
and tie { lovers only grew the more
loving , when suddenly their wooing
was interrupted by the unexpected
crowing of anqtb.er rooster , followed
by the usual knocks on the wall.
Billy uprnng to his fact utterly
be
amazed. ' _
excaimed he , "if I dm" ' ! wrinff
that rascal's neck , and here he is
crowing again. That beats me. "
"Why , " said the young lady ,
who , although somewhat surprised
herself , was rather amused at Billy's
bewilderment ; "that must be a 12
o'clock rooster. It's just twelve by
the clock. "
"Well , that's the bird I'm after
now , " said he , as he bid the girl
good night , and he deliberately
went out and wrung tliat rooster's
neck. He has not been disturbed
since ; he says that if there are any
more similar disturbers of the peace
in that locality he proposes to lay
for them and shut off their wind.

Saturday Night' ; Fire.
The old steam flour and feed mill
corner of Seventeenth and Burt
Streets , was destroyed by fire on
Saturday nigbt about one o'clccK.
It was a large frame building , and
burned very rapidly , the flames hav
ing got a big start before the alarm
was given. The fire department
came promptly to the spot in answer
to the alarm , and saved the adjoin
ing buildings , with the exception of
a small stable , of no great value.
Considerable delay was experienced
in getting on a stream of water as
the hose of two engines had to be
spliced to reach the fire. The mill
and machinery were owned by
James G. McGeath. The loss was
$6,000 or $7,000. There were stored
In the building three mowers and
reapers owned by Hall Brothers ,
which were also burned. One of
the steam engines la the mill be
longed also to Hall Brothers.
The fire , it seems , was accidental ,
and not incendiary , as was at first
supposed. Some soldiers on then-
way to the barracks , rather than
foot it out to the post , went into tlie
building and went to sleep , and it
is supposed set it on fire by a cigar
or a pipe.
The flames were very brilliant
and lighted up the whole city.
The scene was indeed a beautiful
one. Capitol Hill , with its many
beautiful buildings , and especially
the High School , loomed up
grandly.
The fire attracted the attention of
the Council Bluffites , who were un
der the impression that the Grand
Central Hotel was on fire , and that
Omaha was about to suffer a more
severe loss than did Council BluITs
by tiie burning of the Ogden House.
They got out their engine , and sent
a telegram to the Western Union
office , asking if wo needed their as-
sjstance , and statin ? that they were
all ready to come. TWoperator ln
formed them that the fire was an
unimportant one , and thanked them
for then : offer of assistance.

Whether our worthy scribbler of

is a doubt. It is certajn , however ,
that tlie prince of his profession
the devil has reason to be proud of
him ,
"Now , Mr. Butterfield , how much
is this gold worth a karat t" is a
pertinent question. As was Intend
ed , had the questioner been permit
ted to show that the value of the
property was less than the amount
required by law to sustain agonvic-
tlon of grand larceny. When Mr.
Butterfield was asked the above
question , he rightly answered , and
will swear to-day , "Four cents. ! !

The best theatrical performance
ever given In this city was that of
the Fifth Avenue Theatre Combina
tion at tlie Academy of Music Friday
evening. "Divorce" was the play ,
and it was most excellently presen
ted. The audience was Indeed a
large one , and filled the theatre to
its utmost capacity. We venture
the assertion that there was not a
single person in tbat house but who
was greatly pleased with the enter
tainment , and the general verdict
was , "best we ever saw in Omaha. "
The company Is composed of ladies
and gentlemen of real theatrical
talent and merit there is not a poor
actor or actress in the whole troupe.
Each member seems to strive lo
make his or her part superior to that
of anybody else , and hence we wit
nessed a most desirable thing in the
atricals , namely , evenness and
smoothness qf apting.

BLUE SPRINGS , NEB. ,
Oct. 22 , 1874. J
After leaving Pawnee City , we
passed over large tracts of wild un
cultivated prairie , and what few
farms were .scattered along the road
gave evidence of comparatively re
cent settlement This section of
.country is in the hands of specula
tors which is ro be deplored these
fellows , like dogs in the manger , do
not use the lauds themselves or al
low others to , and thus thousands
on thousands of acres of the richest
lauds lay idle year after year , when
they would otherwise be cultivated.
and thus vastly increase the wealth
and prosperity of the State.
Twelve miles west of Pawnee
City we came to Tipp's Branch , a
vUlace consisting of one house. "W.
F. McCliutock id the proprietor of
the town ; he keeps the postollice
and a first-class general store , which
is well stocked with all kinds of
goods , and he does a thriving busi
ness.
John Laio is Keepiatt a black
smith shop near here , but he
proposes to move into the village
shortly.
The surrounding lands are rich
and the town site is LeautifuJ. The
country is sparsely settled , it is true ,
but some day all this land will be
cultivated , and then Tipps Branch
will flourish like a cabbage plant
after a shower.
A few miles further on we stopped
for the night , and was introduced tea
a bed that was harder than Pha
raoh's heart after it had been seven
times hardened. We tried to go to.
sleep , and counted one hundred
backwards and forwards a dozen
times ; then we thought of Watts'
cradle hymn and we sung that , and
afterwards fell back on Old Mother
Goose's Melodies ; then a brilliant
idea came to our mind and we re
peated Senator Hitchcock's jroeui ,
and when that fulled we gave it up
and spent the rest of the night try
ing to guess how long it would be
before morning. At last day
dawned , and after a hasty meal we
took our departure. On the road wu
saw but few houses , and we
could not but think what u
pitv'it was that thjs ' Valuable' 'tract
of land could not be opened up to
immedjate settlement and beqome q
smiling garden of beauty , instead
of the stock In trade of a set of hunr
gry land sh'arks. Late in the afternoon - :
noon we found an oasis in this des
ert Blue Springs a thriving little
town , situated In Gage county , on
the banks of the Blue river , three
miles north of the Otoe reservation.
There is no railroad here yet , but
the Manhattan road , now buildintr ,
will pass throiigb herp , and.it . is eou-
fide'ntjy predicted that before an
other year rolls around , the snort of
the iron horse will wake the echoes
along the valley of the Blue. The
first thing to attract the attention of
the stranger is the magnificent wa
ter power , surpassing 'anything we
hivve'yel seen' in Nebraska , " though
we are told that Beatrice , ten mles )
further up the river has equal facili
ties. The river Blue ia a stream of
water nearly as mrge as the Platte ,
with rock bottom , and being very
swift , there Is scarcely any limit to
the number of mills tbat could be
" ? ? y ? * Blue Springs has an iu-
exhaustable amount of the best
building stone in the West. The
stone for the Capitol at Lincoln \V8S
hauled from the quarries about three
miles from here.
"Tot a lUtl town we thjnk Blue
Springs can show be'tter' ind'uo&-
ments to the manufacturer than
any plaoe ws know of. Business is
good , in spite or the grasshoppers ,
and like all other live towns the people
ple appreciate a good newspaper , for
at every house in town the BEE is a
regular visitor.
Blue Springs business houses are
as follows :
Hazen & Hoag , general store , and
that means anything you can think
of , from a silk dress pattern to a
gunny sack.
G. G. Godfrey ' ajso keeps a gen
eral store , * and hls'stock is large and
well assorted. Both of these stores
are doing a splendid business.
Mr. C. R. Stoddard ( a very clever
gentleman ) Is the druggist of the
town , and liaving just moved into
a large , neatly fitted-up store , and
having on hand an immense stock
of drugs , &c. . there is no doubt but
that he can furnlsH pills a.nd pow
ders enough to kill or cure all the
sick people In the county.
Miss Lizzie A rtz is just flttlug up
a neat little shop for the millinery
and dress-making business. She
has a nice lot of goods coming on ,
and hereafter the Blue Spring la
dies will be furnished the latest
styles by home dealers ,
Mr. J. H. Nichojs Js a wagon-
maker and building contractor , and
a large school house and several oth
er first-class buildings in town and
vicinity speak for his workmanship.
H. R. Gambee Is a blacismlth ,
and his shop is well patronized ,
which is the best evidence that he
knows his trade.
John" F. Pruett , M. D. , before
coming to Blue Springs had an im
mense practice , and here , when * a
limb is broken , or an accident hap
pens the people know that the doc
tor will bring everything around all
right , but the climate Is too healthy- >
