Considerable excitement wns ere
atod on Broadway yesterday nftor
noon. A boy , who gave his nnnio as
Ucardon , nutl claiming to hail fron
Boston , was pulled in on a dispatcl
received by Chief Field , to bo on tlio
look-out for a young man of light
complexion , black hair , etc. The
boy's hair wns brown instead of black ,
and otherwise did not como up to the
atoudard. Ho had a tooth very pioni
inontly filled with gold , which would
havt ! easily iclontilicd him , yotno mention -
tion ws made of this fact. Well , ho waa
taken to headquarters. Cliiuf Field
and Olllcor Morse examined the de
scription , also llio boy , and they could
not reconcile the two. They tnon requested
quested the boy to identify hiinaelf ,
Ho taVo ; thorn a iinino and the street
and number in Chicago where ho had
been employed. Not satisfied with'
the boy's statement , they loft him in
charge of Oflicer Barhylo while they
went down to the ofllco to acnd word
of inquiry to Chicago. Mr. Bnrhyto
kept his eye 'on the boy ,
and having entered into conversation -
vorsation with him , ho invited
Doardon into the calabooso where ho
could toik to him privately. ( No BOOH-
ur had they reached the room than
the boy , aeeing ihu back door wide
upon , shoved iJarhyle to ono nido and
Hindu hin escape , soiling the wall , ilo
wont towarda Prince street , thence
up Glendale over Bierdaloy's fence
and otisconcod himself in a clump of
bushes behind tlio outhouse. Of
course Bnrhyto gave the nlann and
any otiu would have supposed tint the
Alt. Pleasant asylum had been opened
and ita contents poured into our city.
After a littlu chase OUicor Brooks and
Jcsso Walters came upon the young
man who had n revolver in his hand
to defend himsalf if no ml be. Brooks :
drew his and demanded thu youth to
surrender. "Whathavo I done/ / " said
( ho boy. "Nuvui mind , " said Brooks ;
"got over the fence or I will put a bill
through your heart. " Thinking tlmt
tint orjr.ii ! would be mmniwhat nll'ecbd
in that event , the boy got over the
fenco. Jesse Walter * grabbed the (
ruvolvor outof bin hand injd tho/
had him. Soon Bnrh.ito appeared on
tlio Kcenu , and a crowd pitched on un
til the boy became frantic , and buing
possessed with ji litt'o moro mind tlrin
JSarhyto and "Brooks hud been in thu
habit of finding in their coffee , they
had nlHiut nil they could do with thu
assistance of of a huge club to knock
the boy n'inost Ken.tolem and get him
into close confinemont. Alter ho'got
the two in the back room ho again
tried to whip thorn , but Brooks' club
appeared on the scene , and with sov-
.oral blown upon the head , Brooks got
him in r. condition so that Barhyto
could pound him without any danger.
Wo shall no doubt hear to-day what
crimu tlio boy lias committed.

AJOJIVEUHAUV. ,
The quarter centennial of the Pres
byterian church was celubrnted
Wednesday evening in their edifice in
this city. The church wns crowded
and hundred ! ) were nnunblo to procure
we its , - notwithstanding thuweather
was anythiuit but inviting. Promptly
af the hour thu notes -of the organ
werOjjtouclied nnd n beautiful overture
was played by J. W. Ellis , the piece
being ' 'The Glory of the Lord. " The
pastor thuu offered tm appropriate
prayer which touched thu hearts of thi >
older members of thu society. After
prayer n hymn wns aaug , when Rev.
Mr. Clolnnd stepped to the desk nnd
with much emotion read thu following
very interesting epUtlo received by
him nnd writtui by the first pastor of
thu church ut this point. The house
was ui still us thu gravu , from which it
nocmiid almost the words were ema
nating , when wo realize they
were penned by the first pastor the
Presbyterian people hero employed to.
'preach Tlio following ia the letter :

I should be very much pleased to bo

of your dear people once mote , but it
is not convenient for mo jso to do.
When I visited council Bluff * nt first
I had not much expectation of net
tling there , but God who sits on high
and rules over ull was directing my
steps. I reached Council Bluffs on
Friday and learnt there were two
? churches in ( own , a Methodist and a
i Congregational , Rev. Mr. Rice , the
pastor of thu latter invited me to
preach for him the next Sabbath
morning. I did BO. On the afternoon
of the samu day I wont over
tu Bellevue , preached there for
Brother Hamilton , and nfter preach

there. On Monday I returned to
Council Bluffs. Mr. Boyora and n
few otbois urged mo very ntuoh it.

I would und then went back to Ken

after ( hat timo.1 moved to the Bluffs
with my brothor-in-Jnw nnd his wife.

Rev. Mr. Rfeu leftthu Bluffs nnd wu

The next morning nftor the fcstivnl I

Following thu reading of the above
came a very interesting address by ono
of the former pastors of the church ,
Rev. Mr. McCandlish. IIu upoko
briefly of , the pwt .history of the
church and society. At the conclu-
nion of Mr. McUaiullish'n nddre.is nnd
i beautiful ffong entitled "My Love's

If. M. I'usoy , whom everybody in mid
out of the church know , was intnl-

terustingmannorspoke quite at length ,
going back into Mormon history , and
remarking that they were n people

To th& 1'JUor of Tlir. Ili-.K.
-uuuauii. BLUFFS , October lit. It is !
said by those who know that on Tues
day last John W. Chapman , with n
number of his Honpnriel gang , mule
n bitter personal fight at the pulls in
this city against Eli Clayton , n candi
date for representntiro on the repub
lican ticket. Not only did he oiipo.se
Mr. Clayton , but hu used his influimcu
to elect Mr. Mmg.ui , Mr. Clayton's
competitor on thu democratic ticket.
Air. Morgan is probably elected by n
small majotity , nnd Mr. Clayton c.tn
charge his defeat to thu efforts of this
man Chapman nnd his gang. When
it is remembered ( hat Chapman is thu
editor nnd principal owner of The
Xonpariul , mi alleged republican
morning newspaper , nnd that
for nearly fifteen years past
he has been kept in
the best of official positions by the re
publican party , it may HUUIII very
s'.raujjo to many that hu should so
boliu his Imid professions of "loyalty
to principle" by using every tluvico
ami trick known to him to defeat u
regular lepublican legislative cindid-
ate. This , too , when thu legislature
is to be chosen this fall elects a Uni
ted States senator , redistricts the state
into coin > rc39ioiml dmttietH , is charged
with other equally a * important pub
lic matters. Tell it nnt 'in Fairliuld ;
publish it not in Aftou. But to those
who know ( his nun Chapman his ac
tion on Tuesday i not ut ull surpris
ing. It is but in keeping with thu
man's oouise , nnd since hu hai been
u resident of 'i'ottuwattnmid county ,
Nearly fifteen years ago he came here ,
and so grout weru his neces
sities that , it it said , hu
offered to canvass thu county for the
democrats for tun dollars n day. Fil
ing in this , thu republicans picked him
up almost a pauper , furnished him
employment , and aooti had him in
stalled iito | a comfortable oillco. Then
it wns the unprutoful wretch began to
display his real nature. In 1809 hu
wns a cundidntu for appointment by
President Grant for superintendent
of Indian affairs , headquarters nt
Omaha. For snmu reason hu waa not
appointed and hu denounced thu republican -
publican parly nnd President Grant
in meat bitter terms. To quiet him
hu wns appointed assistant superin
tendent of internal revenue. This
office ho held until elected treasurer
of Pottawnttumio county. Shortly
nfter his term of office expired lie wns
furnished money by thu city to go to
Washington nnd labor in thu interest
of thu city in curtain local mutters
connected with the terminus of thoU
U , P. road. Ho spent all his time in
working for an appointment us U. 8 ,
mnrshnl. To the Into Judge Cnlol
Bitldwin , who wat at the time it
Washington on business connectct
with his duties as member of the
"Geneva court of claims , " wns ho in
dabtcd for generous nssistanco ii
scurinf { the appointment. To-d'ij
ho is using the patronage of his office
nnd of his newspaper , to defeat the
widow of Judge Baldwin , who is
candidate for re.tpDointmout ns post-
ttmtrcts of this city.
What h beautiful record is that o !
this man Chapman ! Moro in detail if
not necessary nt the prcscn ; , nnt
yet how wo could n "talo
unfold , " if so disposed. Treachery
ery such as his to the party
to which ho owes ao much brings to
mind forcibly the words of that other
deformity , the Duke of Gloucester ,
when ho says ,
11 Since I cannot prove a lover ,
*
I am determined to prove ft villain , "
This morning this political Janus
published an editorial in his paper la
menting the defeat of Mr. Clayton , in
which ho says : It is but duo to Mr.
Clayton to state that ho has served on
the board of auuorvisors for several
years past , nnd the demands made
upon him , in thai capacity for county
bridges by tl o various localities , weru
more than the funds provided for that
purpose could meet , und on this ac
count his name waa scratched from the
ticket , nnd by republicans who should
scratch their heads in shame for the
wrung thuu perpetrated upon them
selves , their ticket nnd their princi
ples.Ho
Ho should have nddcd at the close
of his editorial
' 'And tlnw I clothe mygclf In nn'ied vil
lainy
With ( Hid old ends stolen forth of holy
wiit ,
And Nccin n saint when moot I play tlio
duvil. "
The truth is that nearly the whole
opposition to Mr. Clayton originated
with tin's man Chapman , solely because -
cause Mr. Clayton , while .1 member of
the board of supervisors , used his best
u.nlo'jvora to prevent Mr. Chapman
from plundering the county treasury.
And if Mr Chapmnn wants the par
ticulars they will bu promptly forth
coming. Sufficient unto thu day , etc.
A weak , vain nnd treacherous man ,
never known to stnnd by n friend ; u
politician only for plunder , isn't it
about time that no was road out of
the party ? * *
Council Bluffs. October 1.1,1881.
IIK IS riOIUiT.
"At present thu democrntsaro claim
ing the election of Mr. Morgan to the
legislature. Wo hope this is not true.
Tt would bo a source of profound re
gret to have Mr. Clayton defeated ,
nnd tro certainly discredit nny rumor
to that effect.1 Nonpariol.
Jlow long does thu colonel over thq
way think that hu can hoodwink thu
people of Pottawatomio county. If
you wuro no desirous of electing Clay
ton , nnd deem thu election of Mor
gan H-.ich ft calamity , why in God's
mime didn't you vote and cast the iu-
fluoncu of your paper in Mr. Clayton's
favor ? Wo do not ngreo with you
that the election of Mr. Morgan
would bu a calamity. Wo believe , if
elected , ho will look out for the
best interests of the county , and if ho
in elected he owes it in n great meas
ure tthu Nonuariol and its influence.
