Tlio main line runs from Marion , five miles northeast of Cedar Rapids , nearly west through Linn and Benton counties to Tatuu City , where it crosses the Chicago & Northwestern , and then through the south edge of Marshall nnd Story oountieoand across ono township in Boone , touching Stvcdo Point on the DCS Monies , and down that valley three miles ; thence westerly , in north edge of Dalian and Guthrie counties , to Coon river , and up that valley to Coon Rapids in the southeast corner of Carroll , running westerly through Carroll and corner of Crawford to the Nishnabotany in section 2(1 ( , township 82 , range 38 ( when the Sioux City branch diverges ) , down the Valley to Defiance , on the divide to Mosquito , and following that crook to Council Bluffs. The line crosses the Chicago & Northwestern junction of Audubon and Harlan branches on the southwest corner of section 17 , township 82 , range 30 , at Manning , seventeen miles southwest of Carroll. The stations are all estab llshed on the main line , except ono in Carroll and ono in Crawford , either aide of Manning , it being understood that there will bo none at Manning. " The Sioux city branch will cross the fiioux on the county line over a inilo south of Smithland , about half a inilo north of the county line , en tering the Bluffs east of Smithlnnd , and via ( Jamb's crook , striking tlio Maple valley at the old town of Ma- plotown , crossing the Maple near the center of west line of section 24 , township 85 , range 43 No line has been surveyed south of Maploton at any time. The connection with the main line by the last survey was at the crossing of the Nishnabotany , about seven miles northeast of D - ilanco , 00 miles from Sioux City , til miles from Council Bluffs , and 429 miles from Chicago , making the line from Sioux City to Chicago 019 miles. Attempted Lynching- National AtaocUtvil 1'roM. CHICAGO , January 31. The village of Rock Falls , this state , is in an up- rrar over the attempted lynching , growing out of the case of inhuman cruelty to a child. Mrs. Botton , a poor woman , whoso husband is in an numio asylum , placed ono of her chil dren 'with a family namt'd Seymour. Learning that the child was being un kindly treated , she visited Seymour and found the child in a horriMo con ditiou from boating nnd starvation. The villager ! * were so incensed that a largo number visited Seymour's house for the purpose of lynching , but ho managed to escape , taking his wife with him. Every house in the village was searched iu an attempt to fine him. Attempted At Nitlontl AmocUUxI I'rou. QUINOY , January 31. An attump to assassinate Dr. T. Q.

Nobniska Man In Search of ttollarfYom n Living Dentil. A iiiini nninod .loRoph Kingsbury waa yesterday cniud for at thu jail hero. He presented a pitiable Right , , . ' , indeed , nnd fully merited all the kind 1 attentions ho received. For five yearn ! pail ho Imi been troubled with n uiiior , which , beginning in ono eye , grown gradually until it now overs his forehead nnd face , except is mouth , making the mnn appear ko a monstrosity. He is totally lind , and suitors so much pain that t times his a.ind wanders somewhat , Us homo ia near Slromsbuig , in 'ork county , Nebraska. , wliuro ho 1ms sister living , but no family of his wn. It appears tli.it last December o started for Chicago , nnd from liore went to Boston , in search of urgical help to relieve him from this "ving death. Three yearn ngo head ad n surgical operation performed vhich roliovcd him temporarily , but Inco then the tumor ha ; grown nrgor than over , and this trip proved tmiccossfnl , them being no relief to o obtained , ns death would follow ny use of the knife. A few days ago the mnn started > ack , nnd though nlonu , blind and in win , made the trip successfully until 10 reached the transfer depot hero day mforo yesterday. Ho wanted to pinh n to his old homo in Nebraska , nnd lad his ticket through from Boston , nit his appearance , manners and con- nitinn led to his neglect , nnd nf or waiting about the depot all day , his aso was reported to the authorities B that of a pauper , and ho was taken o the jail. Hero ho was provided yith a room , food and mi attendant , t was nls'o fmmd that bosidcnhis rail way ticket ho had about > 0 in clisli , ind documents from Mamma in Bos on , recommending him to the earn of -ho - fraternity. Members of this irdor wore notified nnd steps wore ukcu to takn him to his homo as soon is possible. It appoint also that ho ) WiiB n farm in York county , No- > rnskn , and has meaim to cure for liniaolf as far as money in concerned. Yesterday , while at the jail awaiting .he resumption of his dip , the tumor jccan blooding profusely , and consid erable alarm was felt for him. Phy sicians wore called in , who cared for lim , but it was with the greatest difli- siilty that ho could be kept from ilooding to death. The physicians who examined him pronounce the tu- norous growth the largest over soon ty them. The man's condition ex ited the sympathy of all who saw lim , and nothing will bo loft undone o see that ho gets safely back to Ida riunds , who can care for him as no thers can until death brings to him hnt relief which it appears can coma a him in no other way , nnd which remises to como ere long. Bllnaod bySplto. An aggressive style of journalism s the readable , popular style , and or- liclos of that tinge are more taking , is the public enjoys outspoken , cour ageous utterances against anything and everything that needs donounc- ng ; but the public in equally quick to letectand disapprove cheap imitations of justifiable agressivonesa. Of late .hero have boon several such cheap nutations in the morning paper "by .ho wayside , " nnd the personal nni- itus has boon so evident that , like a ticking gun , it knocks the shooter over without dropping any game. Yesterday morning appeared an arti cle against the street railway of the city , in which it appears that its writer was called upon .o pay his fare in cash , instead of Doinjj allowed the courtesy of dead- reading as an nttauhe of n newspaper , [ f the Btrcet railway is a grinding monopoly , and its manager a "tyrant , " the attack should come 'roni some other motive than that of ! iaying to pay cash for \n\no \ received. [ t is n poor style of journalism thai irat supports nnd then attacks an on- .erpriao according to whether there are free pauses or not. There nro other personal grievances jack of the "free pass" trouble , but ; hey conporn the public but little , 3iily as they maka the motive of ac tons so palpable ns to cast a cloud over the honesty of the attack upon various other enterprises. These per sonal differences account for the tact that frequently there appears n lur or fling about tins city npodinir , a first-class hotel when jt is evident that it has the best between Chicago and Denver. This personal spite against the owner of the hotel in order to sntify itself IB willing to advertise this city as being without u first-class accommo dation for the traveling public , and urges thorn to go elsewhere. So blind is spite in journalism as to bo willing to drag a city down in order to nettle onn man. The same spite advertises the street railway as oxhorbitant in its prices , not because of an honest belief that such is the case , but because < f an itching to annoy nnd injure one man who is at its head. The citi/ena Bee- ing the movement are not influenced in the least , but those at a distance and not conversant with these per sonal grievances might bo mmlod , provided the paper publishing such attacks had the circula tion necessary to carry out the intent , which fortunately it has not. TIIK BKK has no desire to follow this line of alleged journalism , It has no friends to screen , no foes to fear , no spites to vent , and in its treatment o ! matters concerning this city and the intcrestd of the people of Uounci Bluffs , it does not propose to have its voice hushed by favors extended , or its ire kindled by favors refused. Whatever may bo the opinions as to the profits of the present line of sticoi railway , or however strong may bo the desire felt by some for n competing line , there is no baais for such a string of fallacies and accusations as npi i paarod in yesterday morning's Nonpar- ! ' uil.Thumain travel on the street cars is I i to nnd from the depots , nnd the dis tances in tlieao cases are long , and there nro few except throuuh paason * gerx. For n traveler to go two miles for fifteen cents in certainly cheaper than the bus accommodations fur nished in moit cities , and without n line of this kind this city would cer tainly be in a deplorable condition for facilities to reach the depots. The cars do not run continuously , as in most cities , mid in fad it is not to bo compared with the lines of other cities. WJinthcr it would pay to chnngo the management by running cars continuously , nnd reducing the faro to encourage short trip passen gers , is n ( luoatiou on which there might bo an honest difference of judg ment ' , but an opinion even on this point would bo worth moio coming from j a practical business timn than from f one whoso judgment is so weak ns to cause it to bo swerved by the giving or withholding of a bit of paste board.

CoirenxjiicUnco o [ Tlm Ilcu : The small pox scnru continues in our city , although its actual presence is confined to the laborers' camps on ho railroads a mile or two from town , except two other eases in the suburbs which came from exposure in these camps. Everybody has been vacci- lated except R few who believe ono ; oed vnccino scar is enough , on the loctrinethnt "oncu in gracu always in urnco. " The locnl board of health is iloing much to secure us against dan- ; or from this drend disease. They built a pest house , although they hud o c.itcli n fellow from the coun try and keep him in the cnlnboo.se tor lovornl days in order to have a patient when the p. h. was ready for ocou- jancy. They have employed ono of their own number aa physician nt the Drilling fee of $50 per day ( always .ookout for No. 1) ) . The public Hchoola mvo been temporarily closed nnd tlio best troupe on the road coiiCdn't getn paying audience in town. Tlio boaid very wisely closed the schools , but with equal wiidom they did not close the beer saloons ; they nro running much the name aa ever , without even a protest from the city council. The snloona pay a big license and the schools pny none , and the money from licenses will help to pay the physiciuu'ri salary and the doctor who earns the small pox salary of $5,000 per day has n vtoo on the license question ; but in reality the health of our people is excellent. Many improvements are going on ; business is thriving , and soon wo win put on city airs , as the last census show * us to bo n city of the second- class. So wo will lay off our village dross soon and assume city manners. Til'JJSK. Bold Abduction of n Girl National Associated I'reas. PiTTHiiuno , January 31.
