The Council Bluffs Nonpareil
ays : "The dense fog prevailing
yesterday aud "last night can be
compared only to that In which
he mind of Dr. Miller , of theOma-
rn Herald , is enveloped when he
urns his attention to railroad af
fairs. This may be somewhat of a
reflection on the weather , but it was
muRgy' yesterday for a fact. "
A reverend gentleman at the
other end of the Pacific railroads ,
writes to this end for a free pass ,
and incidentally rernaks : " There is
more of the spirit of selfishness in this
part of the country and on this end of
the railroad , than there seems to been
on tne other end of the road ; there
fore I do not exactly see , for my
part , which end of the road will en
ter the kingdom of heaven first. It
will not be this end. " Rather
mixed , that ; but the old man ought
to have a pass.
A middle aged couple from
Omaha yesterday went over to the
three card monte headquarters of
Western Iowa , fully determined on
matrimony. A policeman on the
street cars got into conversation
with the lady , and from her gleaned
the fact that they were going to get
married. The office suggested to her
that her attendant , whom he knew ,
was a noted ruffian and capper of
Council Bluffs. The lady turned
pale , and the man oyerhearing a
portion of the conversation , hastily
left the car before it reached the
Pacific House. The lady came up
town with a flea m her ear. What
ehedid with it is not known by the
Council Bluffs Nonpareil man.

Brubacker , the man who played
that big practical sell on Dr. Ish ,
was a joker in his own peculiar
way. Besides the tricks of his
brief career in Omaha related in
yesterday's BEE , some additional
facts have come to light concerning
him. Among other acts of gene
rosity he raised the salary of one of
the clerks in the drug store § 25 a
month , and the happy clerk at once
ordered a new suit of clothes at
Frank Ramge's. Yesterday , how
ever , the clerk countermanded the
order upon hearing of his benefac
tor's new and sudden departure I
the land of the-unknown.
The traveling man whom. Bru
backer engaged at Kansas City I
named Roe , and formerly traveled
for C. F. Goodman , of this city.
Roe threw up a good situation a
Kansas City to accept a" more liberal
offer from Brubacter , who told him
his salary should run from the 1st
of February. The salary is running
yet , and Roe ia hunting up another
situation.
Brubacker , it appears , was greatly
addicted to opium eating , and while
inventorying the stock of Dr. Ish
he got his opium free.
He beat Hellomn & Co.out , of $19
for clothes , for which he agreed to
pay on the 1st of April. This was
an April fool a little a head of time.
He also obtained a bank and check
book from the First National Bank ,
which he may make use of to de
ceive parties elsewhere , and the
public are warned to look out for
him. .

BEFOGGED ON THE RIVER.
Narrow Escape from Drowning.
Two young men , one named E.
Livingtoue , a clerk at Brash's cloth
ing store , and the other named
John Shroeder , brother of Ferdi-
dand Shroeder , the barber , attemp
ted Jto Across the river to Council
Bluffs with a horse add buggy
hrough the heavy fog that envelop
ed this section of the country about-
half-past 7 o'clock
Tuesday even-
ng. After getting on the ice about
.weiity or thirty rods north of the
bridge , they got out ; to Teel their
way across. Livingstone led the
horse , while Bhroeder scouted ahead
a few feet. Suddenly he went down ,
haying broken through a thin place
recently frozen over. He threw
out his arms. As he went down
Livingstone saw and heard him. It
was a minute at"'least before he re
appeared , when he exclaimed , "For
God's sake , save me ! " Living
stone tried to go to his assistance ,
and in so doing broke through the
ice himself with one foot , which
caused him to fear that the next
moment both himself and the horse
would go under. Shroeder went
down two or three times , and the
last time that he came up he held
himself to the thin ice by his el
bows , and was then drawn out from
his perilous position with the hitch
strap in the hands of Livingstone ,
The two young men abandoned thei
trip to Council Bluffs and returned
to Omaha. Bhroeder was.chilled
through , and yesterday he was
confined to his bed owing to th
effects of the chilly bath. It was a
narrow escape for both of them.

Early History ,
Some Interesting Facts Concerning
I. S. Hascall , of Oraalia , Wlio
Was o'nce a Big Gun Among
the Claim-Jumpers at
Cheyenne.

and Why He Left Cheyenne
for Cheyenne's Good.
Hascall on His Way to the Black
Hills.
Items From the Gold Regions , Etc.
CHEYKNNE , Feb. 7,1870.
EDITOR BEE :
The gold excitement occasionally
brings back to this city some people ,
who hi the olden time , left Chey
enne for Cheyenne's good , aud
HASCAIiL , THE NOTORIOUS ,
is among that number. When the
respectable citizens of this town
were struggling with its hoodlums ,
and when law ana order were about
to triumph
A JACK IN TUB BOX
jumped up before the astonished
peopleof Cheyenne , and announced
the Communistic doctrine that
THE LAND BELONGED TO THE PEO
PLE ,
and not to the capitalists ; consequently
quently all the remainder was for
the people ( ? ) to take their own.
This doctrine at once became im
mensely popular with the free lunch
grabbers , loafers and thieves who
then overran the magic city , and
Isaac Hascall was at once declared
to be their Moses. The mob was
then organized , the best lots in the
city were "jumped , " and a few hun
dred cut-throats were soon in full
possession of the choicest unim
proved property in the city , Hascall ,
as usual , securing the best and the
largest slice for himself. For over
a mouth this man was monarch of
Cheyenne.
"THE PEOPLE" DEFEATED.
Casement , the great Credit Mobi
lier contractor , objected to the reign
of Hascall ; but not wanting to
measure swords , he invited him tea
a confidential interview , when he
explained to him that he had ar
ranged with
withTHE
THE MILITARY
to come into Cheyenne the follow
ing day , pull up the stakes driven
by the lot-jumpers aud arrest their
learders , and intimated that if the
vigilantes should demand them the
soldiers would not object to turning
over a few such men as Hascall aud
his lieutenants.
Hascall threatened resistance , but
Casement handed him five hundred
dnllara to pay his way out of the
country , and , presto change , the
great Communist was seen no more ,
and his mob were hung , shot , im
prisoned , or forced to fly the coun
try.
HASOALL'S RETURN.
Unheralded and unannounced the
great unhung returned the other day
to Cheyenne ou his way to the
Black Hills. He met , howeyer ,
A WARM RECEPTION.
as some of those whose property had
been seized by him and his mob
were there to welcome him , and
they did it by expressing their
opinions in a manner that was more
forcible than polite.
11 What are you going to do in the
Black Hills ? " said one of his whi
lom opponents.
" Oh , " said Hascall , " we are go
ing to Custer City , but if they won't
give us a good lay out , we will set
up a sideshow , or fix up
A DYNAMITE MACHINE
and blow up their d d town. We'll
have a show , you bet. "
He was allowed to go on his way ,
but for the good of the Hills It was
hoped that some one would give him
" a good lay out. "
