Yesterday the news reached the city of a fatal accident on the line o : the B. & M. in Nebraska , which cos1 the lives of two men , one of ih-m a resident of this city. A brief des patch was received at the B. & M. Headquarters giving meagre details and aiicther came subsequently to one of the cflicials of the postoffice depart raent. Inquiry of the passengers who came in from Lincoln at noon was stil less satisfactory , and the Lincoln pa pers had not a word concerning the accident , telegraphic or otherwise The catastrophe took place on the line west of Hastings snd between Nape nee and Blooiningtun. In this locality wo are informed , the water frcquen'lj rushes down from the hills , filling uj the sloughs and washing out bridges and fills occasionally.

The Special Committee on "Wa ter Works Will Adver tise Apain. At 3 o'clock Monday afternoon the special committee of the city c unci on water works , met at the office ol President Boyd to consider the tvro bids received and opened at noon. II was decided to reject all the bids , as none of them agreed with the require ments of the ordinance. The bids were conditional , and in one case there was a defective bond and in the other there was no bond at all. It was decided also to advertise for new bids to bo received up to noon of the 20th inst. This will allow the bidders to put in new and coriect proposals , and new bidders will also be permit ted to come in. One or two unimportant changes were made to the ordinance , and the city attorney was instructed to draw up a supplementary ordinance.

A Piece of Inhuman Cruelty * 4 .to a Horse. A Case for fne S. P. C. A. We to-day learned the particulars of a serious case of abuse of a horse , which resulted in the death cf the poor brute. It seems that on Sunday morning a man , whose name our informant di ( not know , went to Mr. fienry Homan's livery stable on Thirteenth street and hired a horse and bugcy for the day , saying that he wanted to drive out about six miles in the coun try. He drove off and was gone al day and late in the evening was stil numbured among the outs Along towards midnight however he returned leading the r.nimal , hav Ing stopped upon Sixteenth stree somewhere and left the buggy , whicl the poor brute , it is supposed , wa unable to drag further. The horse was in a terrible condition , but wa put in a stall and every attention pai ( to it until a few hours later it fell to the floor and expired. It is suppose ! that for some re son the fellow ha ( literally dri\-eu the horse to death which , if his repenentations were cor reel , must bo ivithiii six miles o Omaha. Monday morning a war rant wan filed in police court sgains the driver , but he has not yet been found. It is proposed , if possible , to mike him pay for the animal , and purt'c who , although not connected with the stable , were witnesses of the horse' condition , do not > repose to let the matter drop there. Mr. D. B. Houck thea eutof the S. P. C. A. , wi 1 b Instructed to push the matter to the extremity of the lw. THE FUGITIVE CAUGHT. Nels Jensen , the Douglas County Convjct , Retaken. Again Escapes and Again is Nabbed. The account of the escape of Nel Jensen , the Douglas county con vict , from the walls of the Nebraska slate prison on Friday 1 ist , is followed close by the story of hia recapture ii Cass county , and his return to duranc vile. Deputy Warden Nobes , who w < in the city Monday nih > , give the re porters a dtscription of the man , am authorized the announcement that B ruw.ird of § 50 would bo paid for hi cipturc , which , it turns out , IIM already been effected unknowt to the ofiker. The story of the recapture is thu told : On Saturday evening the yeo mAtiry living in tne vicinity of Ash laud were astonished to find in thci midst a man dressed , as they though * ill the latest style , a striped suit , fa miliar to the p.'oplo of Lincoln an < common at the penitentiary- pissed farm after farm unmolesfe' ' and occasion < lly stopped toqu > mch hi thirst at one of the farm wella. Fi nally he pa-aed on the roadside a Mr Oliver RoJgers , who was aware of the convict's escape , and who knew fr"m his garb that hu was wanted at the prison. Mr. JloKersimuiedUtulyarrest ed him and nnrcheJ him to the hote at Ashland were he was confined in a room with his captor standing oyer him as a giurd. About midnight the guard was changed and Mr. Rogers laid down for a nap. The new guarc libouttwo o'clock in the morning , M asleep and Jensen jumped out of the window and tnadu his escape. After daylight Rouera awoke to find his bin had flown. Nothing daunted he starlet in pursuit , and reciptured his man in the edge of Cass C' ' uuty , and took him to Lincoln yesterday morning , and this evening he ia again withii the walls of the prison. RIVER NjSWS. The river continues to fall slowly. The Eureka is the name of the new fi-rrybott at "Wrmillion just finished by Capt. Arch Dougias. River men say that when the water goes down slowly , as it is doing now , the channel is left in much better form than when it falls sudd-nly Vermillion Standard : The willnw matting and the piling pUced by the railroad company as a protection in front of the old cnshout lias been bsdly wrecked by the hi h water.

Among the offenders who were ar raigned befor * Judge Hawes yesterd : y morning were two "bums , " Jim Green and Charles Murray , who had just served out a twenty days' in jail. They were arrested on complaint of Harvey Kelly , better known as the whistler , whom they had beaten up a terrible manner. It appears that thn two men went into a house on Ninth atreet which had recently been vacated by order of the council , but was occu pied by a colored family. Some of the children had gathered up a few soda water bottlea to sell , and with these deadly instruments an attack was made on Kelly , who was lying down at the time. They knocked a hole in his head clubbed him over the shoulders and used him up gener ally. A woman in the same house charges them with robbery also. During the trial this morning one of the men interrupted Kelly , while he waa testifying to call him a 6 d liir but was promptly set down on by the court and the two bruisera sent up to the county jail for forty days , which the judge thinks will let them out about dog daya when the sun may get in its work on them. FOUR OF A KIND. May Leonard and Belle Chamber lain , who figured so conspicuously in t erecoutBennettmock-marriagecis < , were again in court Monday evening They were of late bosom friends and boon companions , but had a falling out , and the former was arrested on the charge of her quondam friend , who accused her of retaining some garments loaned her. The deputy- marshal was sent to bring the proper ty into court , and produced a valise and three embroidered , short-sleeved linen garments , the latter being identified by Belle Chamberlain as her own. The fourth she claimed was occupied at the time by the defendant. The latter swore as positively that she had pur chased the clothes herself and that they were hers. The judge was puz zled but finally declined to transfer the property to the cHimint , and ad vised the girls to settle the case be tween them. This MIRS Chamborl-iin said she would do inside of a month , and that the judge would hear of it. From the fire in her eyes it was in ferred that she meant blood , and Mies Leonard wanted to "swear her life" against her , but departed on the judge's promise to order armed inter ference in case of a threatened crisis. MINOR OFFENSES. Hugh Shields who was arrested yesterday for cutting a man a week age hat Sunday , has his trial set ior tj-day. The charge against him is assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill. Cyrus Smith swore out a complaint at the police court last evening against a colored brother , "Chimm-y Swtep" Johnson , for calling him bad names. A Bohemian named Shoostrick also complained against Frank -Kotiza for a similar offwnce. PERSONAL PARAGRAPH ? D. C. Brooks returned from Lincoln yesterday.

A SIGH , , , . . . ! With Which an Enumerator Expresses His Relief That ' It 19 Finished. To the Editor of THS BIB. No one knows or appreciate ! , es- cept he 1m been an enumerator , what a volume of meaning , what a source of relief and gratification i found in the above phrase , "It is finished. " What is finished ? The enumeration of our city. What a sigh of relief and contentment the enumerator emits as ho turns over his schedules and re ceives his receipt from the supervisor of census. He is led to exclaim in the mme strain as did the young lady who had finished her education , "My du ties are at last finished ! What a thank less and miserable job I have bad ! What an ordeal I have just passed through ! The only wonder is that I have lived through it all and preserved my senses ( census ) and young appear ance. " The work Is thankless , because while wo ro laboring for scientific , national , municipal and individual in terest ; our work is made unpleasant and retarded by those who will be benefitted by it , and ought to aid us instead of throwing barriers in our way Something is wrong , and I do not know who or what is at fault. It is not natural for people to oppose any scheme that will remunerate them or kill the goose that lays the golden egg. I think everyone ought to be informed of the necessity and object of the census , and at what time it would ba taken , by the distribution of blanks prepared by the government , to be distributed aud collected by the oncmerator and filled by the head of the family. Th's ' method is vrry successfully used in Great Bri tain. The. newspapers are ready to gratuitousl'y advertise it , which lessens the labor to a g'eat degree , but so many take no paper and are ignorant of the scheme and its object , that the work is ex'remely arduous. The na ture and multiplicity of the questions propounded if hia subject be not oi a tame disposition and approached in the polit st nd m o4 affable nunner have a tendency to aggravate the un favorable nnpreaaiun formed in the beginning cf his seeming preeump- tious intrusion. Even ihtn , in many cases , she ( I use the feminine pronoun practical y in opposition to the prin ciples of grvmmir ) exclaims , "Isn't that an impudent question ! Did you over ! Well , 1 never ! I d < n't think I'm obl'gtd ' to answer all of the-e silly question ! What is it all about , any way ? What good will accrue fr m knowing where my grand parents were bornMl ) these questions must be pleasantly and satisfactorily answered after he has crowded himself through a halt open door uninvited , past the form of a peering female who fills the only entrance to the orumisoa , or fail ing in this , being repulsed by the bur ly form at the door , who has taken him f i r a book agent , stands with open book , ink and pen in one hand and hat in the other ; perched upon one of the lower extremities , the other planted against the side of the hou-e or some other convenient object , forming an improvised writing desk , utterly un conscious of the strain upon the gpinil column until reminded of it in trying to rise from his couch next morning. In this graceful altitude he explain ! all about h' w the cenaua of the United Status is a political necessity , as rep resentative power in congress is based upon it. The mixed f rm of our government established by our con stitution , ( ihe only form which was posstblby which the pre-exls'iiig state * maintained Iheir right to existence - tenco , and to act for themselves in all strictly national , affair * ) , while for all national purposes political power is to be extroised t.y a double rule ; partly through the states acting a a single body and partly according to popula tion , irrespective of state lines posi tively requires , not as a means of ad- miniotrativo efficacy , but as an essen tial condi'ion of its own existence , t at the inhabitants of the United States should he periodically enume rated. Mriiiiwhile the wire screen on the door lends enchantment to the scene , giving the form behind it the appearance of a tableau , or of a statue of Diana all of which is admired by him who has plenty of time to contemplate such scenes , beside * his mind is in a condition to fully appreciate the use ful and the b autiful. The trm "censu . " had its origin In Rome , nhrre a group of the many functions performed by the high offi cer callud the "censor" received the name cvnsus An enumeration of the people was one of them , but they were ch it fly of a statistic * ! character. The first census in the United States was taken in 1790 , the returns all being - ing referred tthe hrst of August. In 1830 the enumeration was fixed on the first of June , which change made the interval between 1820 and 183C nine years and ten months , thereby rtduc'ng ' the ratio of increase two- thirds of one per cent. The first en largement of the scope of the census was in 1810 , when the agents were by law required to take an account of the several manufacturing establishments. Again in 1850 it was enlarged so as to include the suveral subjects of moral- i'y , agriculture and productive indus- tiy. AH it has widened it has weak ened ; more has been put upon the enumerator than he could well carry ; hia attention has been distracted by the multitude of subjec's presented ; tlte great number of inquiries has per plexed and irritated the body of citi zcni , which protracts the canvass and renders thu census proper crii.pl > d and impaired. Fort seeing this the super visor nf the present census withdrew at the thirteenth hour the manufac turing schedule from the enumerator. "It ii finished , " and well and faith fully did we do our work. We had taken a solemn oath to let no ( guilty ) one escape. The satisfactory result shows how well we suitained that oath. Before the canvass had fairly begun , many wiseacres , prophets and chronic grumblers always ready to find fault , and give their opinion be fore being asked , never pleased with anything , satisfied with nothing , whose veiy existence depends upon grumbling predicted that the enumerators were a set of numbsculls and would not reach one half of the population of our city. After theae Prognosticates have prognosticated it grieves thorn very much , to have things turn out differen ly , even if the consummation of it would plunge then into utter ruin , as their reputa tion in that line is forever blasted. So in this case , the population of Omaha went beyond the moat san guine expectations of all , which is a deathblow to all faultfinders. In conclusion I would say that the enu merator should be placed in the same category with the soldier who ha * fought to redeem his country from tyranny and oppression. A lasting monument of marble should be erected to his memory , emblazoned with let ters of gold ; h's ' name choald be handed down to posterity and rank in history with the signers of the Declaration of Independence.
