Last n'ght Sergeant Ford.of the mn- nicipal police , was busily engaged In hunting down a police iteta In South Oman * , when he was informed that a child h d been murdered near Boyd'a packinghouse , and was then lying dead in the yard. * Ascertaining th&t the house In which the murder was committed was that'of one Johnson , a notoriously ugly Swede , the Sergeant hurried ai quick ly as p ssible to the scene of the crime , when he was astonished to find a little girl of Eomo eight years of age , lying not di a'J , but dead drunV , In the rear of , the bui'ding , while the rest of the familyalmost as much intoxicated , were receiving a beating from the in furiated head of the household. It seems that Johnson is a holy ter- rtrtotha neighborhood , and people living in the vicinity have been talking seriouily of running him cut. When ever he gets intoxicated , which , on an average , is about ones a day , he im mediately begins to maltreat his fami ly , beating them ihamefnlly. Not- withttand'ng his treatment of them , they are afraid to prefer complaint and poaiiivcly refute to appear as wit L'Oises ag.iirnt him. Last evening all went up town in a rickety outrit , which he owns , and by the time they were ready to return were decidedly intoxicated. On the way back the liltfe grl was so drunk that she fell out of the wagon , which ran over her , fortunately not injuring her. She was laid out in the back yard to sober off , which , with tha noisa in the house , gave rise to the rumor of a murder. Sunday Happenings. Yesterday afternoon quite a number of turnouts were on Sherman avenue , as is usual on the Lord's day. One among said turnou's ' consisted rf a sorrel pacer , a female driver , and a buggy that looked like it had been through the war. Another turnout , came along and watted to give this one "the dust. " A race ensued. Pres- entlj something broke ; the sorrel stepper cavorted and reared up at both end ? , r.nd finally ran the ship aground againat a barb-wire fence. It took an hcur to repair the leak , but the last ecu of the bark it was tailing down Sixteenth street at a speed of forty knots an hour. Yesterday afternoon two women were attempting to enter the crossroad - road between Sixteenth and Eigh teenth atreetsnear Bauman'a brewery , when the buggy struck a fence corner , and broke a wheel. The horse didn't run , and no one was hurt , but we heard one of the women cay "darn it. " A fight took place on North Six teenth street yesterday , between one of the Kcsters and an old farmer who was pretty "full. ' ' Each got in some good , solid shoulder hl's ' on the other , when peace was restored and quiet reigned supreme. The Bou-s - . - is Coming- Van Amburgh & Co.'s. Great Golden den Menagerie , Roman Circus and Colosseum , the largest combined me nagerie and circus now traveling , will visit Omaha on Friday and Saturday , May 21st and 22d , this week. We venture the assertion , that , as a whole , this monster exhibition is by far the raott attractive in all of iti features of any like institution that has ever vie ited this section of the state , and that it will meet with the moat generous patronage frort our citizens and our country readers is placed beyond a doubt. The Golden Menagerie hai the mrst extensive collection of wild animals , birds and reptiles that hta ever been brought together under one canvas In this or any other country in the list of which will be found the Gruat Behemoth of Holy Writ , the only living nondescript in this coun try , the largest elephant in America. and twenty-nine cages of other rare wild animals. The circus performan ces will be of a startling and amusing character. A troupe of nearly one hundred equestrians , equestriennes , gymnast * , acrobats , athletes , leap- era , etc. , all of whom have beeu selected for their peculiar spechlty acts. The clowns three of them have been chosen from the best and wittiest in the profession , and , in short , everything in this gigantic show is of I ho most elaborate and glittering description. We expect to see the snammoth tents of t'jo Van Auburgh show crowded at each performance , on Friday and Saturday , May 21et aud 22d. Who is there that dislikes to see a good horse ) No one. Who then will fail to eoa not only scores of the finest bred hones in the country duh into the magic ring of the circus , each one of those carrying an equest rian , who from infancy has msdo the art of riding a horse a study ? Who can listen to the qunint sayings of Mr.Mer- ryman , the circm clown , wlthontstart > ing a button from his vest with Invol untary laughter ? What boy will hes itate to ride a mule when the ringma tor offers a five dollar gold piece to the lad who succeeds without getting his neck dislocated ) Oh , it is fun to ride the mule. The man who can throw a someraault over twenty horses is with the show , and he will do it or break his engagement with the man agement , for he Is hired for that one feat The lion timer will enter the den of the forest king , and not on'y play "hide and go seek" with Inlf a dozen of them , but will feed them with raw meat in the presence of the whole audience. No mistake about it , a menagerie and circus is just what Is most desired at this time by our citizens , and they will not fail to crowd the spacious tents of the great Van Amburgh at each performance.
