UNITED STATES COURT.
Trlnl of an lalorontlni ; Case from
Saline County.
The United Status district conrlbaa
been occupied for two days in the trinl
of an interesting mi it , which had its
origin in and especially relates to Sa
line county. This cam has once
before como before the United Slat en
court , the jury failing to agree. The
action is entiklud Calm vs. Van Dnyn
ot al , the other dcfumlatitR being
Meisrs.Vehn nnd Castor , of V/ilbcr ,
Saline ccMinly. Wjhn is editor of
The Opposition , ] U ilished nt Wilber ,
while Uiistor is a prominent democrat.
The Bint w\s brought to recover § ! )00 )
on a morlgigo and note , which
; vero nllogod by Calm to bu fictitious.
The inorlg.i"jo'niul notes uro claimed
to liavo been signed by a man named
Orut/cl , who bought a farm from
Wehnwlio has oinco disaiipenred. Van
Duyn , and who figures as the chief de
fendant , was elork of the district court
in Saline county at the time the notes
and mortgage are nllo o'l to liavo been
given by Ilio missing G rot /.el in payment
for the farm , while Castor WHS a n tary
public who claimed to have witnessed
the ni ning of the mortrnge.
After pissiiiK : from Wohii into other
hands Culm , the plamttH' limilly ob
tained poFS'Ksion of the moitg.igo and
notes , and then brought suit against
Van Duyn , thu clerk ; \Vehn , the or
iginal owner of the farm , and Cns'or ,
I ho notary , claiming that thuso men
hud conspired ( o isiuu the sccnrilii-s
with fictitious signature ? , and divided
the proceeds of the money obtained
from thuir sale.
This involved both the reputation of
thu defendants , as well us the value
of the mortgage : > nd notc.s , and they
consequently mndo a vigorous fight on'
it. The plaintiff alleged ns'his reason
for commencing the action that the
property claimed to bo conveyed to
the missing Gret/.cl is not worth the
fnco of the mortgage , to say nothing
of the notes. Tn the former trial of.
the suit the value of the farm was
variously put at Sl.OCO to ? 2,000. I.i
the present trial both sides have been
ably represented by Burr A ; WoLster ,
of Lincoln , for the 'plaintiff , and
Hastings & JVlcGintio , of Saline
county , for the defendants. Tlio jury
will return a sealed verdict to-night if
they uro able to agree.

An liarthy Formation That
Killa Dakota County
Horoes.
Ono Man AlioDlen FromDrlnklnp ;
the Poitonod Water.
J. C. ( Jibblo , a well known farmer
of Dukotu county , arrived in the cily
yesterday. Ho tolls a rcmnrknblc
story regarding n poisonous mineral
substaiioe whichoxudesfrom thu earth
in certain portions of that county , ami
which is death to men nnd horses il
tukcn within the stomach. This aub <
stance Mr. Gibblo describes ns re-
Humbliilg alkuli , but materially differ
ing from it in taste and poinonoUR
effects. The existence of this ran
terial in the HOI ! has been known for
sometime , but it has only been within
the past year that its effects on men
and horses hu ) become known ,
the many deaths among the
uquincs bum ascribed to other causes ,
During the past season Mr. Gibblo
has lost several good horses from this
oaiiso. When the second horse wni
taken sick , ho ascribed thi ( trouble to
bo Is or worms and used remedies for
thoio troubles. Instead of improving ,
however , the horse colitinuod to suffer
from some internal trouble , which
battled thu skill of veterinary physi
cians , nnd it finally rofviaed food ulto-
gothur and died.
To satisfy himself Mr. fJibblo opened
the body of tlx.animal nud found but
four hots or worms , but still the
stomach was almost entirely eaten
away. Ho was still at a loss to de
termine the cause lif this , ns , together
with others , hu hud never considered
the snowy incrustations appearing in
places iijion the ground other than n
kind of harmless nlkali. Ono day hu
wuspassinganewlycutblnir from which
this nubstanco a paired in con ider-
uble quantities , when curiosity prompt
ed him to taste it. Ho only touched
his tongue , and found it rather sweet
in taste and nt lirat apparently harm
less. In nn hour or two , however , his
tonyuu begun to swell and burn , and
this iiillamnutioii continued two or
three days , resisting all Boothiiig ap
plications. Finally thu inflammation
MiOMuledalmost as quickly ns it crime ,
and hia tonyue and mouth guidually
hcrilcd
A few o'coks previous to this , James
Wescott , a farmer living four miles
west of Kakota City , was attacked
with a peculiar internal ailment. Ho
wan ill two or three days and then
suffered intense pain for a week , when
lie diod. All possible efforts were
made to relieve him , but none of the
reihodies used su-emed to affect any
thing. A post mortem examination dis
closed his stomach to bo much inflamed
and eat en away in places. The surgeons
pronounced it a cn'so of poisoniutr ,
but by what particular poison they
were tumble to discover Mr , Gib-
Idea says that he ia satisfied , as aty
the members of Wcstcott's family and
hia friends , that the unfortunate man
had been drinking water from a
slough , where Iho poisonous forma
tion existed.
A rather strange .fact connected
with this poisonous , encrustation is
that cattle like it , and lick
it up , without being injured.
Gibbk'H thinks that the poisonous
properties arc taken into the stomachs
achs of the horses iu water forming
in puuls on the ground where this ma
terial upptur4 , during wet weather ; as
all of tlie animals he has lost have
been taken sick during.or after heavy
fulls of rain. At such times a num
ber of animals throughout that sec
tion of tiio county always arc laid up
and nnny die , despite the moat
strenuous precautions. As yet no
remedy hiw boon found. AsuceesBful
antidote fur thu poison would bo alike
a hlnsshig to the farmers and a bon-
auxa for its discoverer.

THE SIGNAL SERVICE.
Ilepart of nn Imporinnt
Branch of the War Depart
ment.
A copy of Oon. Hazon'g first annual
report as chief signal officer to the
Secretary of War has been received
at , THE ] ) inolKco : nnd i * A document
of too important , A character to bo
disposed of in nn ordinary review
were it never no exhaustive.
No public department lias CVIT
served B greater variety of interests , or
nerved them moro successfully than
the * innnl Horvicu ns now managed.
This suction of the country shows the
benefits of many practical improvo-
nicntH introduced by the now chief
signal ollicor during the
past year , among which wo
mention the publication of special
weuthcr bulletins ; the forecast ol
' northera" for the interior plateau ;
the arrangements for i crcaso ot river
service , and wider publication of warn-
ingiof lloods or ice gorges ; the in
creased information added to the
farmers' ' nnd to the railway
bn'letinH. ' In point of scieiititic
research the .sicnal service has been
untiring. Two expeditions have been
organized and equipped for meteoro
logical observation * in the Arctic re
gions of America , nnd an extensive
* ystom of stations of observation es
tablished in Alaska. Prizes for essays
of great merit on meteorological sub
jects h.ivo been offered , and the most
creditable display made ut the elec
trical exposition at Palis. A series of
experiments with sun Hashes has led
to the selection of an improved form
of heliograph to bo adopted for the
general use of thu army. During tlio
past year stations of observation on
the habits and ravages of the Rocky
Mountain locusts or grasshoppers
were established in those sections that
Iho experience of past yeara has
shown to bo most exposed to thu
ravages of thcso pests. The stations
, vero at Omaha , Grand Island , North
L'lattoand Sidney , Neb. ; Cheyenne ,
W. T. ; Denver , Colorado Springs and
Pueblo , Col , and other moro remote
ilaces. It is gratifying to state
.hat not a single report of the rav
ages of locusts has been received ,
md their presence has boon nn-
aimounccd only 'at Grand Island ,
Nebraska , Forts Supply and Elliott ,
.nit in no installed has any danger
jeen reported. While continually in
creasing the labor and usefulness of
: ho signal service , General llnxcn
las yet succeeded in materially
reducing the expenses of his bureau ,
expecting to ell'ect n saving of
§ 75,000 below the cost of the past cur-
ont year. Combining economy with
efficiency , science with discipline , pro-
with system , the signal service
indor its present chief is surely des-
incd to become arepresontativo insti-
; ution of this country , of which all
will feel proud.
