THE OMAHA DAILY BEE : THURSDAY NOVEMBER 3 , 1881 ST. JOHN'S DOMAIN. A Trip Through Southwestern Kansas Destraotivo Bav- ngea of the Drought. Correspondence of The lte. IJUHUNOTOK , SoUTHKHX Klrt. , Oc lobor 27. Your correflpontlont arrived at this oenutiful city of ! ) ,000 inhabi tanta on September 2it. Burlington is the county sent of the crnck county ot CotToy , ami lies 305 iniica south west of Onmha , nud 100 from Kansas City. It was sottlud in the border ruffian times , nbout 1850 , by stalwart eastern mon , who besides stocking it with churchm and first-class schools have inado it commercially an impor tant and wealthy place. A largo amount of business is done in the usu.il departments of trade. Burlington - ton ia situated at the confluence of Hock creuk and Acoslia rivur , both streams nro bordered with abundant timber , and the Acosha ulforda a con stant water powoi1. There is abundant building stone on hand , and nearly the whole city is built up of stone and brick. A very striking fouturo to an Omaha man is the magnificent condition of tlto streets , inado of the yellowest stone of thd neighborhood , they nru as if tnacademized , quitu level , yet perfect ly smooth and hard. Mud stands no chance whatever. The surrounding country ia the rich prairie , much the same as Ne braska , and corn is king. This is the year of drought lo Kansas , crops will average one-half. I saw some splendid corn-fluids , the stocks ten and twelve feet high , but the othersalongaidoyiold nothing. Hay was a good crop ; wheat light ; po- tatos almost a dend failure , but high prices will help out ; white corn brought last year twenty-five cents. I saw it soiling freely in Burlington at'aeventy ' cents per bushel. All the way from Kansas City to Burlington were painful nights of the drought ; it was one dcacst , not a grown thing to bo seen. A simoon was sending its hot blasts from the south , and the dust in the cars woe almost intolerable. From some ob servation , and prior visits to the state , I am inclined to think that Kansas is more subject to extremes of seasons than Nebraska ; either drought or rain are in excess when Nebraska is gutting a smaller taste of the same this season. Our State has suffered this year , but not near so much as our nistor Stato. On the other hand the soil of the two States and general characteristics are the same. There was no rain in Kansas to speak of from Juno until the latter part of September , when a rainfall be gan and has continued until now ; the change is marvelous , reminding one of spring rather than fall ; the lawns have become green , pastures are booming , and fall wheat is six inches high. One of the notables of Burlington is Hiram McAllister , who was with John Brown in border ruffian times. His description of these troublesome times , part of which ho saw and part of which he was , is graphic and thrill * infi. McA. was chosen to the danger ous task of smuggling Sharp's njlos into Topeka , whore two parties claim ed to bo the legislature. The arms were stowed between false bottoms in two lumber wagons. Twice he was intorconted by officers in search of these very arms ; once while the officers wcro questioning the man and examinging his truck , John Brown himself rode rapidly past toward To peka. Of course no one knew him. McAllister took things easy , lit a big pipe to smoke , and by his coolness saved his guns which the next day were in the huiids of the free party. Mr. McAllister carries to-day a bullet which was tired into his back by traitor negro whom Me 'supposed he was saving from pursuing enemies. A. For "Western Eye - A writer in a recent issue of The Art Amateur lias an nrticlo upon the bogus picture trade in New York city. Ho says : "In Levy'a place the pic- tutos are not hung upon the wall. It would require a largo house to furnish trail space enough to hang all Levy's pictures. Instead of thin , they are ar ranged in hui/o piles about the com modious store-rooms untrained. The would-be purchator is shown whole acts of these at a time in a standing framn. Pictures are sold hero accord ing to their size , and not according to merit , as they are all believed to poH- sess an equal amount of that. Levy regards pictures with a commercial eye solely , and if you inquire of him the price of his goods ho will at once ank you the si/.o you want , and this makes you feel as if ho wan uboul to produce a tape-lino snd take your measure. "Wo have thorn , " he will / > ay , from 05 cents up to § 2.2(5. ( " "Does this include the frames also ? " you ask in innocence , and you are rather euipiised when lie answers that the frames cost moru than the pic tures , for when you find that the pic tures are made by the yard yen feel though the frames should be made the cord. Scenes on the Hudson with staring palisades and impossible clouds , pictures of sheep and cows feeding near brooks that start in the clouds and come vertically down the middle ot the canvas , ore the favor ites just now. ' 'There is a threat de mand for'these pictures out West , " you will bo told , "where the taste for art is rapidly improving. " Levy's establishment is gener.Uly full of cus tomers , and the hands of its proprie tor , to Hay nothing "f hi.n pockets , are full also. It is said that Home years auo Levy used to In mild , modest in dividual , who worked side by side with his men. Now , however , wineo "the taste for art has increased in the West , " Levy is a changed man. He has a .sharp resonant voice , and : i Bwaguenng , brazen air , as if he him * uolf was the bassoon of the human or chestra. "Tell Catlo to put some more trees on them palisades ! " ho nhoiitH to one of his men , and at the time points to a stack of three feet by two cf pictures representing the pah- sadt'H about to topple over into the Hudson. A customer , who came in while the writer was there , wanted tin * name * of eminent artists attached to the pictures hadhopurchuted. "That'll be extra ! " * aid Levy , with au hialuu * ntiiiRamilo. "Oh , that's nil ri ht , " said the customer , "only put on the names of them oyuathan follow. " Up a rickety Might of stall * is Ihu attic , and hero nro the rooms where the pictures are made. Do you re member the gaudy paintings you must ha > o seen in rcstnutants adjoining railwny stations f The Hocks of sling- tjy sheep and the obese cows rambling beneath incrodnblo brooks Mowing over their Hources ? They wcro painted in this nttic , or , if not , then in snmo place of this character. Hero there is no romance. The artists sit about the three ftmnll rooms in the fiont of the garret nnd work like beavers , They have the knack of the brush nnd the mnul-stick , and they keep the "pot boiling , " BO to speak. Hero is a marino picture on the easel of the nearest man as you outer The ship iu the background acorns to have par taken of the vim and energy of thenr- list , and skims the waves with no'lasj- card prow. Hut the poimnt at the fore IH > streaming one way and yol her sails are boomed out in just the other ( Ihpction. It is unfottunnto that the artist in his hastu to complete the picture turo has overlooked the fact that the wind never blows from oppo site points of the compass iu thasmmo time. "Is that so ? " ho eays when his attention is called to the fact. "Oh , they don't mind little things like that out West ! " On the broad beach in the foreground are strewn Eitrprisin kinds of suawecda , and climbing over the rocks are red lobsters ! But what of thatIf / they don't object out West to the wind being represented M blowing from opposite directions in the background , surely they will not object to boiled lobsters crawling over the rocks in thu foreground ! A nota ble thing about , these "commercial ! " artist > is their preference for largo brushes , such oven us are used by housopainterB. Their rapidity is not less noteworthy. They literally 1 'sling" the paint on. Ono would think that Levy , with his immense business , grown from the smallest beginningswould be a happy man. Such , however it seems , is not the CABO. Ho has n rival who has es tablished business in Church street , whore ho does a business in "bogus" pictures that bids fair to exceed in magnitude that of the ambitous Levy. But this is not all. This rival played n trick on Levy some years ago , by which the latter was induced to pay a teed price for what 1m tetms very in ferior pictures. In other words the rival succeeded in "out-bogusing" the clover Levy , to coin an expression for this particular case. It seems that Levy , while sitting in his little front oflice one morning , was accosted by a Btrnnger , who told him he had bought a lot of pictuies on speculation , but was in need of money , and desired , therefore , to get rid of them. Levy looked senrchingly at the stranger , who seemed to bo of a timid , retiring disposition. His clothing , no two ar ticles of which were of the same color , appeared to have been purchased nnd put on a few hours before , a fast more directly established by the clothes dealer's ticket which still adhered to his coat collar. He S3emed to bo aim- plisity personified , and Levy , after telling him that the market was Vt-ry dull and pictures sold very slowly und only at small figures , asked him what he wanted for his goods. The stranger undid the cords that hold together a bundle that ho.carried under his arm , and displayed a ijreat bundle of pic tures. "These"said he ' ' , , 'are only samples. I have several hundred of them which 1 wish to sell. " What do you want for them , " demanded Levy. "What'll you givfj ? " asked the strang er. "What'll you take ? " returned Levy. After they had repeated these questions several times , the stinger admitted that he knew but little about pictures , but , aa ho must sell them ho would let them go at a dollar and a half apiece. They wore the same size for which Levy asked 82. "I'll give you a dollar apiece for them , " said Levy. "It's very little , " said the stranger , "but I'll take it. " Thataf- ternoon a truck arrived with several hundred pictures similar to the sam ples shown by the stranger , and the money was paid over. It was some time afterward that Levy discovered that the pictures ho had purchased from the stranger had boon made with stencils and touched up with a brush ! In reality they were worth about ten cents apiece. Then Levy discovered that the ssmo man was underselling him in the market with his own pic tures. These stencil pictured are inado jn great quantities and sent West , whore there is a largo demand for them on account of tlu-ir chonp < ness. It is only by careful oxamiim tion that they can bo distinguished from the ordinary cheap-painted pic tures , and if the parts where the sev eral different stencils join have boon carefully painted over with a brush it is said to be imposasblo to tell one kind from another.

Wo learn from Gjiiernl OttoFiinke , who returned fiom the western part of the state yesterday , the meagre particulars of a tragedy which oocur- red at the little town of DeWit , in Saline county , last Friday night , which will probably result in the death of an old and highly respected citizen by the name of Busbaum , It eecins that proprietors of one of the oaloona of this town , whoso immea wo could not learn , had some difficulty , which resulted in ono of the proprietors disposing of his interest to a citizen of the town. The new partner walked into the fialoon and notified the re maining partner that ho had purchas ed a half inteie.st , and proposed to run the cstabliehmpnt to suit himself , The old pattncr objected to becoming as sociated with the new man , and as a consequence the doors of the saloon were closed. In the meantime the remaining member of the old firm gave Iu Mr. Itusbaum a mortgage upon his interest in the ealoon , to secure $700 that he had borrowed from him oomo time before. Uusbaum went to the naloon for thu purpose of claiming the stock under his mortgage , and found the door locked. He attempted to forca it open , wheu the tain inside fired at him through the door , the ball lodging in his breast. It was thought nt Wilbor that the man was mortally wounded. FROM SHERMAN TO LONDON- Beef to bo Slaughtered in Wyom ing nnd Pritfiorved for British Palate- Chejcnn * Lettlcr. A number of workmen , tinder Con tractor East , nro engaged on the slaughter nnd packing houses nt Sher man station , projected by Moroton Frowon & Co. Aa the business con templated opens n wide field of com merce for Wyoming , n detailed nar ration ot the Bamo is apropos. It may be premised that the idea of the business originated with Mr , Moroton Frewen in this wise : Ho observed that beef often sold nt losing figures simply because of the over crowded state of the market , nnd that attempts to hold beef en the rai'go for bettor figures were not always successful. The idea sprang up , why not slaughter the beef by wholesale and hold it subject to u rise in the market ? Then the details of the plan were necessary ; how to do it ell'ectivcly and economically. Mr. Frowon learned that ono of our lead ing butchers had once killed a large number ol beeves in Choyotmu duiinu the winter nnd kept the carcasses in n largo shed successfully for several months , and into the latter part of April , and at the end of that time thu moAt was still swnot and fresh. It then occurred to Mr. Frowon that by establishing n slaughter house ntShor- man , and taking advantage of the pre vailing low temperature" there , ho could operate the business economi cally and successfully. The plan is this : A great number of beeves nro to bo slaughtered at the beginning of every winter. This year the number will bo from 1,200 to 1,500 head of cattle , for experiment. When the slaughtering is done , the quarters will bo hung in nu open shed until they are thoroughly frozen by the natural temperature. No ice will bo placed in contact with the moat. When the quarters are nicely frozen they will bo packed away closely in a packing house constructed on Bciontiflc principles. No ice will bo needed to prcsorvo the moat as the cloao packing will retain the frost. The average temperature of Sherman station is below - low the freezing point ; it has an eleva tion of 8,242 feet , and is on an ex posed summit. There are precious few nights during the summer when ice does not form "in the strenms and ponds near by. It will bo soon then , that Mr. Frow on can efl'ect all the objects of the business simply taking advantage of the natural cold temperature. As a consequence much labor and expense is saved over what would be necessa ry. ry.After the season's slaughtering is done and packed away , the supply can bo drawn at will. Mr. Frowen's idea is to ship his beef to English markets. To do this ho will secure refrigerator cars and when these are once loaded at Sherman tho/ will go clear to the docks of New York without change and the contents unloaded into the refrigerator chambers oi the ship. Ho contemplated provi ing n largo re frigerator at Gravesend , London , to accommodate a'ship load , and it ia though that the original freezing , done at Sherman station , will preserve the meat during the lapse of time between the slaughtering and the selling of the same at Gravesend , even though it were July or August. The refrigera tor at the latter place will bo so ar ranged that the moat can bo preserv ed tor several weeks longer , it ueces- ary , on account of poor market , etc. Should the experiment of the pios- ent winter with 2,000 head prove suc cessful , Mr. Frewen will have his facilities enlarged BO as to slaughter from 15,000 to 20,000 beeves the fol lowing winter. The item of freight from Sherman station to London is not so great aa ono might suppose. By reason of heavy shipments , Mr. Frewen has secured very favorable terms from the Union Pacific and other roadsandtho steamship companies , so that ho can ship the beef nt a cost of about ono pence ( two cents ) per pound. This will enable him to compete successful ly in the London marketand thus will his business bo increased. Indeed , if the experiment proves successful , it is probable that other preserving estab lishments will bo started at Sherman. But to Mr. Frewen belongs the credit of originating the idea and of having the nerve to supply the means of test ing it thoroughly. It is to be hoped that the oxpori- periment will prove eminently success ful. If it is , the beeves of Wyoming need not bo driven out of our bounds for n good market. Our cattle men will not lose by shrinkage consequent upon shipping , and besides nil the business will bo done in Cheyenne.
