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.

A Tragedy at Do Witt
Lincoln Journal , October 37.
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.
