As many are looking to our state for
hsmes this year , I thought a word
from Hitchcock county might prove
interesting to your eastern readers.
Republican river runs through the
county , near the center from west to
cast. Frenchman river runs a southeasterly -
easterly direction , and forms a junc
tion with the HeDubllcan near the
eastern boundary. Numerous small
streams empty their waters into the
river. Along the stream is plenty of
timber for fuel and building purposes.
To all Spoilsmen I will say the waters
afford abundant of fieh. Farmers
have put In quite a large crop this
year. Wheat stands about seven
inches in height , and it of a very rich
color. All kinds of vegetables grow
ing in splendid condition. There
have not been any veiy heavy storms
this spring , but many gentle showera.
The prospect could not bo more favor
able for an abundant harvest. Every
one seem * happy , stock men well ts
farmers. Loss of stock is estimated at
from 5 to 10 per cent , and feed is the
best known for years at this season.
Along the creeks gisss stands from
ive to ton inches in height.
The railroad reaches the east line
of the county. I see by the papers
that2,000 teams and 1,000 men are
wanted to work on the railroad , and
hat trains propose to run into Denver -
ver before 1882. This notice causes
great rejoicing among the settlers
here. The advantage of securing a
western marketas well as an eastern ,
is greatly felt. Two largo herds of
ponies are 'how on the road from
Text ? to.thls county , and will reach
Culbertson ( the county seat ) the last ;
of this month. Pcnica sell at about
§ 25 per head. They break easy and
make very good teams for farming.
There is plenty of Rood government
land to be had In this county.

OXFORD , Furnei Co. , Neb. , M y 4 ,
1881. Since winter hrs gone and
springhas como , this part of the He-
publican valley hcs been blest with
all that the people could desire in the
way of fine weather. From iho time
the frost went out of the ground un
til to-day , wo have had a cloudless
sky nothing but clear , cilm , warm
weather. To-day wo are having a j
beautiful rain. The fields are grcan j
with wheat where wheat was sown.
The farmers are all almost ready to
plant C3rn , of which there
will be thousand of acres ]
planted in this pait of the valley this 1
season. Potatoes , peas , sweet corn
and all kinds of garden vegetables can
be seen growing at every farm house.
Cattle and sheep were never doing
better ; good beef or mnttcn can be
taken from any herd or flock. Al
though our farmers have hud a severe
winter to pull through and meny
hardships to endure on account of the
short crops last year , they commenc
ed their work this spring
with that pluck and energy
that does not fear defeat or failure ;
and why should they doubt ? They
have all seen cs eovere drouths in oth
er parts of the world n that exper
ienced here lest season , and that , :
too , by many of them in countries
rough and stony , whore a good crop
was scarcely more thrn ia wasted here
In a plent'ful ' season. While here we
have a so'l from three to seven feotin
thickness , with a smooth surface free
from oveiy inonmbraace and the best
climate in the world.

CHILD MUBDEB.
A Colored Babe Found Dead in
a fDoor-Yard.
At an early hour yesterday Mr
W. H. Powers , engineer of the Omaha
foundry and machine company , resid
ing at 1217 Davenport street , found
in his door-yard , close to the fence ,
the dead body of a newly born male
colored infant , which had either been
dropped over the fence or- thrust un
der from the walk outside. There
was every indication that the child
had been fully developed , and though
no marks of violence were found up
on it , It was evident that rough treat
ment or exposure might have killed it.
Mr. Powers gave prompt notice of
the finding of the child to Coroner
Jacobs , who took It in charge and no
tified the district attorney of the fact.
The latter ordered an Inquest , which
was held at 3 p. m. iomJg-g
Several colored families live within
a short distance of Mr. Power's house ,
but no circumstances have yet been
discovered which point to any one and
no clues have been found by the
police. From the circumstance * ,
however , it Is probable that the guilty
parties will be detected.
THE INQUEST.
An inquest on the dead infant was
held at Coroner Jacobs' office at 3
o'clock yesterday afternoon. The fol
lowing jary were summoned : L. Po
land , foreman ; 0. H. Withnell , V.
Burkley , W. P. Snowden , Henry
Siert , Michael Mallen. The most im
portant evidence in the case was given
by Dr. P. M. Chadwlck , who testi
fied that the child had been alive and ,
in his opinion , death was caused by
strangulation.
The jury rendered the verdict that
the deceased child came to his death
from suffocation supposed to have been
produced by some person or persons
unknown.
Up to a late hour last evening no
further facts had been obtained in the
case and the police were still in the
dark concerning it.

Domestic Bliss.
Mr. Wm. Everitt , a contractor on
lower Farnham street , has domestic
infelicity. His wife appeared at Po-
Ice Court yesterday and her spouse
arrived a few m'nntes ' later. Mrs.
Grcrltt accused her husband of beat
ing her , of bringing other women into
bis houio and shamelessly keeping
them there against her will , and of
rarlons other offence ? unbecoming to
i good husband. Mr. Ereritt denied
ho allegation , but the trial was set
lot 2 p. m.
The general appsaranca of the cou
ple threw some doubt on Mrs. Ever-
It's statement regarding her husband ,
IB he appeared decidedly meek and
rather afraid of her. When Everitt
turned to leave the court room and
3a sod by his wife the latter could no
longer restrain herself , but flew at
aim and but for the judge's rebuke
irould very likely have done him
bodily harm.
Evoritt endeavored to get hia wife
itrested for this and similar conduct
but the judge declined to give the
warrant.

A JAILOR'S ' SPORT ,
An Obdurate Gang of Tramps
Under the Hose ,
They are Left Water Soaked
and Wretched Over
Night.
Is this Proper Punishment or
la It Brutal and Inhuman -
human ?
THE BEE recorded a day or two
since the arrcat and confinement in the
county jail cf some -.hlrtoeu tramps ,
who were for several days to have a
diet of bread and water. On being
taken to the jail the tramp * were di
vided into two gangs , the seven most
repulsive and brutish being placed
together in ono cell and
the remainder in another. The
gang of the odd number were
quite ugly , and on entering their
cell , x proceeded by such means as
were in their power to niako
it as filthy and nasty as
themselves , spitting upon the walls
aiii ceiling , and in other ways ren
dering it offensive. Jailor Miller
finally informed his charges that they
"had better stop , " but without effect.
A short time after three of the
county prisoners were called from their
cells to do duty at the pumps , and the
jailor proceeded with a hose to "clean
up" the cell of the obdurate tramps ,
the latter meanwhile romaming in
side. The stream was a powerful one ,
and more of it was turned upon the
inmatea of the cull than upon the
walls. Occasionally the stream struck
equaro in a man's face , in hia ear or
nock , and as ho howled and
throw up his atma another
charge would strike him in the stomach
ach or arm pit. After thia amuse
ment had been continued for some
time , the pampa were stopped , and
the tramps left in their cell , wet ,
cheerless and cold , until the next
morning , when moat of them were
chilled through and ohivoring , and
could scarcely speak.
The jailor had hia fun , and a good
many would no doubt bo glad if at the
same time the tnvnpa had all "taken
their deaths" of cold. But the county
jailor is in a responsible position and
it may be well to notice that his sport
was not only Inhuman but that It was
in violation of the law , which espe
cially protects all criminals , whether
murderers , thlovos or tramps. If our
county jilor viol.ttej the law In one
instance what assurance have wo that
he will keep It in auothcr ?
THE BEE is ao far from considering
this sport of the jailor a joke that it
hero and now calls the attention of
the county commissioners to thia violation
lation of a most sacred part of our
law as a thing demanding immediate
and thorough investigation.
