Tying a Parmer to a Gotton- wood Tree , And After Beating Hi in a Brutal Manner , a Coat of Tar and Pentium -"Warrants Xivned. In the office of Messrs. O'Brien & BarUett yesterday might have been seen a young man in his twenty- second year , who has come to this city to ask the help of the law to avengeone'ofthefoulestandmostjdarinR outrages that have disgraced the state. On his left cheek was a large scar and another on the right side of the nose , while under the right eye was a long cut. Besides these , his body bears many bruises , his back being almost entirely black from blows. His name is Willis G. Stanton , and ires on a farm in Jefferson precinct , this county. On Jast Monday evening , on returning io his home rrom Omaha , where he had been with a load of corn , and when unhitching lis horeef in the barn yard , he was seized by about twenty-five men , xiund hand and foot and blindfolded. 3e was then taken & distance of two miles in the country , tied to a cottonwood - wood tree and tarred and feathered. Here is the story in his own words : "I was detained until quite late , " said he , "on account of the condition of the roads. I had not the slightest suspicion of what was the matter un til close to my barn. Suddenly I saw issuing from parts of the barnyard mon , whose faces were covered with black cloth. At first I doubted my senses , but when I was roughly seized upon I saw there was no mis take in what" I saw. I made a desper ate struggle , and was very severely beaten. My clothes wejo almost en tirely torn off. They gagged and tied me with straps and ropes , and com pelled me to walk a dis tance of two miles. The terrible beating I had received almost completely disabled mo , but I was dragged along. They stopped at cottonwood tree and began to tie mete to it ; I was not aolo to make much resistence. When they had bound me tightly , they produced a pot of liquid tar and begun smearing my hair and face and body with the stuff , while others sprinkled me with feathers ; in a word tarred and feathered me. They meanwhile informed me that they would set me on fire , and others were in favor of hanging me. They finallj demanded that I should leave th state and never return On my promising to do so they desisted. This all occupied about half an hour. They then departed in a body , refus ing to comply with my cries to be un tied. In a short while one returned and cut my bonds , but taking care to tie my hands together , was barely able to drag myself home. I was obliged to go to bed at once , and yesterday when I was able to go out I came at once to the city. " Did y 11 ecognize any of your as saDants ? " "Yes , I recognized about thirteen , ' he replied. "What was the cause of the as. sault ? " On the fifth of' May Mrs. Over hinder , who has a'farm near to me , had an auction eale of some personal property. Warning had been sent in all directions not to purchase , as an effort had been made to enjoin the sale , but which was unsuccessful. I went to the sale- and was the only man who bought , except one man who bought only a corn husker. Nothing was said or done about it till last Monday , eleven days after the sale , when I was seized and treated as I have described. The assault on me was on this account. " - "But was there nothing that helped to create a feeling against you ? " "Well , I am of the opinion , since nothing lias been done to the other man who made a purchase , that it was owing to a little affair of some time ago. I was then a con. stable , and I called upon n Mrs. Conner to make a levy , when she beat me unmercifully , using stone in a stocking as a sort of club. I had her arrested and brought here where she was fined by Justice Wright. The man who bailed Mrs. Connor on that occasior was the leader of the gang that as saulted me. " General OBrien , took Stanton be fore Judge Anderson , who took hi complaint and issued warrants for the arrest of ten of the party on a charge of riot. The warrants ere placed in the hands of Constable Charles W. Edger- ton , who undertakes to make the ar rests alone. Being asked if he did not fear violence , he said he had no fear and that he would go well "heeled" and bring the whole ten back if they were t ere. Stanton ac companies him , and both left this af ternoon by wagon for Jefferson. 3Ir. Edgerton expects to bo back tomorrow row afternoon. The warrants are for riot , but when the parties are brought here additional warrants will be issued on charges of felonious assault , and to keep the peace. The names of the parties are sup pressed because of the.fact that the assailants do not believe Stanton rec ognized any of them. Besides these actions , civil suit will be brought for $10,000 damages. A Charge Contradicted. To the Editor of the Bee : ALBION , Neb. , May 16. In view of a recent letter over the signature of "Jcy , " in THE OMAHA BEE , of May 13 , 1881 , under the head lines , "Al- bian Aroused , ' etc. , we take this op portunity of denouncing the same as s malicious viULmJon and slander without any foundation , of a worthy and respectable citizen , and we take pleasure in testifying to Dr. J. H. Smith's conduct and deportment dur ing his residence amongst us , as a jentloman and physician of high standing and repute tliroughout the county. Ed. S. Connelly , county judge ; Au gust Kohler , merchant ; S. P. Bellman - man , county treasurer ; F. M. Sackett , iroprietor Albion "Mill. , p. H. Gal- jraith. S. P. Bellman refers to the gentle manly character and general reputa tion of Dr. J. H. Smith , as a physi cian and gentleman. As to the state ment concerning Shlcmline , I know nothing as to whether he is dead or alive. S. P. BOUMAIT. TkeJLU Mayer. Ex-Mayor Chase , passing along DougU street yesterday , met a gang of newsboys. "Hello , " said one , "here comes the mayor. " "No , my son , " said the colonel , 'thk is the ex-mayor. " "No "taint , " spoVe up a little rogue , 'it's de double-ex. " "Ah wat a'ye given us , " put in an other , "he's de treble-ex , de best brand in town. " Dot settled iL _ - ' ' Mr. Henry Bpswitz , the popular proprietor of the boo and shoe store at ,1422 Douglas St has just associate with .himself , as business partner Mr. Harry Wells , late of StvLouis. - Mr. Wells has had years of ex perience in the beat boot and shoe houses of St. Louis , and besides thor oughly understanding the business in all its details. He is a pleasant gentleman , whom the public of Omaha will find it a pleasure to meet. ' Tttr. Boswitz commenced the shoe business in "February last , and by carrying a large and well selected stock which he has been selling at prices so reasonable , thai the public have.given him a very lib eral patronage. Mr. Boawitz says that under the new arrangement they will increase their stock and will offer to the trade , 'bargains that will please them , and asks for the new firm a continuance of the same liberal pat ronage with which he has been favored. ATTENTION MAYOR ! Threatened Destruction of a "Valuable City Bridge. The wall on the west side of the Tenth street bridge , over the South Omaha creek , is crumbling away , and at the rate it is going , not many hours will pass before it will be irreparably destroyed. The stone at the base ol the arch is being broken into small pieces , and the top of the structure is leaning from ten to fifteen inches out of plumb. Within the cul vert the crack is from six to twelve inches wide , and stones are trinning to fall out. The progress of the destruction is very rapid , anc should the thing go down , very grea inconvenience would result to citj travel. The continous rain has worn away the earth , and how the matter can be readily fixed is not very plain at this writing. That Sadden Departure. OMAHA , May 19. Mr. E. Eoscwatcr. SIR : You published a card in last evening's BEE , making the first an nouncement of another evening paper , soon to be published in the city. Youi statement in regard t the existence oi such an enterprise is correct. Inas much as you have evidently been un informed , however , in regard to the details , we beg- leave to correct anc inform you in certain particulars. i he newspaper to be publishsd wil be called The Omaha Evening Tele gram. It vrill be edited and issued bj the undersigned , three former em. ployes of THE BEE , and who are al ! working men and friends of workingmen - men , with their own typo and from their own office. Its policy will be the policy best becoming an indepen dent and legitimate newspaper enter prise. It will be devoted , first , last , and all the time , to the interests oi our prosperous and growing city , con cerning whose enterprises it will give an accurate daily account. It will be published on its merits as a newspa per. The expediency of individuals or corporations will not suppress the announcement of important public events. We feel called upon to thus an nounce The Telegram before its pub lication , because of your covertly worded and maliciously designed misstatements - statements and unjust reflections. In regard to other reasons which in duced us to prefer the responsibility of a now enteq > rise to uncertain am objectionable conditions of our prsv fous employment , we have at prei notliing to say. In answer to the i.u putation that the method of our leav ing the employ of THE BEE was un- business like , we have only to quote the first paragraph of your card as published : "Last Thursday afternoon I left for Chicago on a brief visit. On my re turn Tuesday night I learned that Mr. Donnelly , city editor , Mr. Johnson local reporter , and Mr. Smith , adver tising agent , had , during my absence served notice upon Mr. Sauer , busi ness manager , of their intention to start an afternoon paper , intimating their desire to quit at an early mo ment. Mr. Sauer very promptly anc properly relieved them at once. " S. F. DONNELLY , H. S. SMITH , SOMNEK JOHNSON. This card does in no way deny or gainsay any allegation made by me last evening. I have not the slightes objection to the enterprise whicl these parties are about to undertake , but I most decidedly object to snakes in the grass creeping into my sanctum under false pretenses anc abusimj professional confidence to further a scheme put up by emissaries of the Union Paqific and Dr. Miller In all the ten years since I estab lished the BEE , I have never attempt ed to inveigle an employe from any Omaha paper , nor have I ever sent a man to play the sneaking spy on any publisher. I cheerfully give the hard- fisted "workingmen" who have so suddenly left our employ the benefi of the extensivo-circulation of the BEE wliich as "they fullwell know" reaches over two thousand subscribers in Omaha , that eannot be reached hi any other medium , They have best wishes in their new departure.

The Grand Reception at Chan cellor Wbolworth's this Evening. . When Bishop Clarkson called tin annual council of the Episcopal church in Nebraska to order at 3 o'clock Wednesday , the following dele gates from the clergy responded : Rev. H. B. Burgess , of Plattamouth ; Rev , Thos. K Dickey , of Nebraska City Rev. Geo. A. England , U.S. A. , chap lain of Fort Omaha ; Rev. Samue' Goodale , of Columbus ; Her. Wm. A Green , of Omaha , Rev.

Jacobs , Decatur ; Rev. Frank R. Millspaugh Omaha ; Rev. Harry W. Meek Omaha ; Rev. Dr. Oliver , Nebraska City ; R v. Timothy O'Connell , Ne braska City ; Rev. James Patterson , OmahaRev. Henry C. Shaw , Silver Creek ; Rev. John Williams , Omaha. Lay delegates F. George , Sr. Clarksville ; 0. W. Thomas , Gran4 Island ; Guy A. Brown , Lincoln ; Phil lip Potter and R. C Newton , Nebraa ka City ; Thomas C. Paterson , North Platte ; J. M. Woolworth , Geo. Thrall , C. S. Montgomery , C.W. Mead , Gee , F. Labaugh , Omaha ; H. Holcomb Schuyler. Hev. James Paterson was re-elected by acclamation. The Rev , Henry W. Meek was elected assistant secretary , and Julian Metcalf , of Nebraska City , was on motion unanimously re-elected treasurer. The courtesies of the floor were ex tended to visiting clergymen from other dioceses andcandidates _ for la ; orders. A communication from the secre tary of the general convention , on shortened services , and another on the subject of raising funds for the fami lies of Deceased clergy were read. The subject was re-committed to the com mittee for consideration and report. Another circular from the genera ; convention on the subject of paying the expenses of-candidates to the gen eral convention , which was referred to the committee on legislation , was sub mitted. After deciding to leave this matter for discussion go over till to-day , ad journment was had till 8 o'clock in the evening , when Bishop Clarksoi delivered his annual address. The Rt. Rev. ' gentleman discussed a great number of subjects. He en dorsed the movement for shortening services for daily prayer. The loss of three and the gain of five clergymen was reported. The bishop gave the list of candidates for holy orders and ordinations performed , and enumerat ed the vacant parishes. He then redd a list of the parishes that had con tributed to the fund for theological education with the amounts in each case , about $200 in all. He also read a list of churches in which he had per formed the holy'rite ' of confirmation , comprising most of the churches in the diocese and numbering 182 per sons and gave a summary of official acts during the past year ; * Several of the church edifices in the diocese have been greatly improved in the past year , ' among which are Grace church , Columbus ; Holy Trinity church , Schuyler ; and the Incarna tion , Decatur. The greatest accom plishment for the church has been the erection of St. Mark's church , Hast ings. At North Platte a rectory has been built during the year" The bishop made special allusion to the munificence of Mr.-O. W , Mead , who intends building a handsome rec tory for St. Barnabas here. In respect to church schools , the bishop said they are doing their work in a satisfactory manner. The diocese has not yet been able to add to Brownell Hall or Nebraska college , though since the last councilaprimary school building had been added to the former by contributions from the citizens , of Omaha , obtained mainly through the efforts of a lady who has devoted her life to the work of educa tion in the church. But a new Brownell Hall on a larger site is need ed very much. Besides the two diocesan schools there are other schools which are doing work worthy of high commendation , which may be considered parochial schools ; among them are St. Barnabas , Omaha , and St. Luke's , Plattsmouth. The new cathedral had progressed slowly , and the bishop said it would be another year before its completion. After the bishop's address , remarks were made by the Rev. Joshua V. Hines , of Elk Point , Dakota , concern ing the floods. Rev. Dr. Runcie , of St. Joe , spoke ofTnissionary work , and the council adjourned to half past nine this morn ing.Al Al that hour , after prayers , the council got down to business. Rev. Secretary Paterscm read the re port of the standing committee. Dean Millspaugh read the report of the Cathedral chapters ' w The Bishop read-the report of the trustees of the Episcopal fund , con sisting of the fund for the support of the Episcopate , has reached- nearly $16,000 ; the Oliver fund , for the sus- taininfi of a theological professorship , § 10,000 ; and the Clarissa Cook fund , $5,000 which is expected soon to be paid in. None of the principal of these funds is to ba used , out only the interest. The Rev. Mr. Goodalo then read the report of the standing committee on legislation. The election of the standing com' ' mittee to assist the bishop came next. Tliis consists of three clergymen and three laymen. The latter were de cided upon as Messrs. H. G. Clark and C. W. Mead , of Omaha , and Mr. Guy A. Brown , of Lincoln. Of the clergy , Rev. Frank R. Millspaugh and Kov. James Paterson had been chosen when the council adjourned for lunch , to meet atrnin at half past 2o'clockri Last evening , after the final ad journment of the council , a reception was given" the delegates and the bishop , at the residence of Chancellor Woolworth. To this reception mem bers ofj the church.were generally in vited , and the evening will no doubt be one of great enjoyment. PERSONA ! , PARAGRAHS. W. C.
