THE OMAHA DALuY BEE : FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 10 1882. A RAID ON KANSAS. "A Perfectly Plain Road" Frou Culbartson , Neb. , to Atwood - wood , Kansas. A Lovely lUdo for n iovlnc "Sorlbblor" Pat His Footo in It. Corrc pomlcnco ol Tim Urn. CiTi.iiKUT.soN , Nob. , February-I. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing , " said Solomon , but that doei rot apply to a little experience in the ways of the west. Read the pleasant experience of a young lady going in the saino direction as the writer , who , of course , offered her a ride. Wo left Culbortson at about 10tC : ! n. in. , with the direction to "drive dotvn about miloand cross the track and river and then back on the othoi ! side , and take thnt road there ( point ing with his liiiRer ) that loads right over that blGrr. " ' Wo started. The road down the bottom pre sented no crossing to our view for at least six miles , but at last wo found a crossing place , and after a good deal of diniculty with the team , got safely ever , but hero arose another difliculty. There was no road on the other nido , bat the prairie was smooth and we drove alonp ; at a good ralo. After an interminably long drive we came back opposite Oulbortson , and hero arose another difliculty. We could not find the road loading ovei the blutt , but we found an old Gor man , who was herding cattle and hogs , and inquired : "Whore is tbo road that leads southward toward Atwood ? " "Vat you Bays ? " The question was repeated : "Ya , ya ! Ich sagon ! You dhravel rigcht oop obor dom hugks und findts a roat vat I goes mil tny vainily und gows ; goon sthraight on und you soon gomes to dho sthraight roat , und you gant moes it.1 Wo found it much as ho said , only the innumerable trails made itdiflicult to keep the right ono. Wo kept tbo road ever the prairie a little past of south until wo struck Driftwood crook , and seeing a nod house with a stovepipe running through the roof , wo stopped to s o if wo could got dinner and directions. Are the readers of THE DAILV Bui ! posted in regard to the beauties , con veniences , and general advantages of a sod house , half dug-out , and do those ii'sthotic beings , whose whole existence is made up of the too utterly utter element , and who loll 'ovor their , morning coffbo or chocolate , and pretend to , read the morning pa per , know anything about the exist ence of their brothers and sisters of the plains ? Tno mud mansion at which we stopped happened to bo the country ( aud city ) residence of SJ.r. Robert Brown , Esq. , formerly from Wiscon sin. Hero ho lived with his wife , daughters , son-in-law und his twu grand children. The house consisted of a hole in the ground about four feet deep , then wall of sod about two and a half feet high , iwo logs were placed , lengthwise of the structure , ( ? ) ubout cqui dis tant from each other , and from the side walls , brushlaid , .crosswise , sup ported the sods that farmed the roof. A few windows through the sod walls gave light enough for all practical pur poses. Inside , the walls were plas tered , the ceiling was covered with muslin , tacked to the aforesaid lo-s , various receptacles wore formed by cutting square cavities into the soil which formed the walla. The floor was of the sanio material .as the rest of the edifice except tbo ( brush , logs and plaster. The stove , which wae used both for cooking Mid boating purposes , occupied ono corner of the room ; beds were in two otltors cornorc and thu other corner , near which was a window , was used as ncouaorvatory , with many rare and beautiful plants , such an geraniums , waxplcnts , tea roses and the like ' Our dinner consisted of ton , bread , and fat pork , but wo wore hungry anc could have eaten a .young itmile if hi had boon tender , so wo made , n fail meal off the delicacies at hand , thoi asked the directions and started. Wo were looking fcr Jerome , Jlaw lins county , Kansas. We had nov travelled ono thousand seven hundrei and ninety-eight miloo since we - started ed and I thought wo oit > ht to bo .near ly there ; our final destination w.aa ti be Atwood , Kansas. Jerome was a place Mr. Brown Jim never heard of , but wo 'had ' boon < tal < that it was this wide of Atwood , oo j wo wont toward the laulor placa r.i would probably find the former. "Atwood , " said Mr. Brown , "is < xl thar. " pointing a little to i'ho west oi outh. "You go right down hero aiw cross the Driftwood , before you loavi any place , and than follow thu row rigcht down until you strike itho roai going ever the lull yonder , jxndthei take that. It ia a perfectly pCain rout and you can't miss it" Wo crossed the Driftwood , .and awe wo came out from thu atroam wro sat i . road . loading . . back up . stroaiK , * bu .11 i " t " our directions wore "down , o wi wont that way , After BOV'UII him drod and nineteen miles in that diroc tie had been covered , we made u our minds that wo were going th wrong way , so wo turned uround nn started on the back track , A ( to awhile wo came across an untiquuU : spociiten of the genus homo on th top of j\ load of wood , which stnc ! every way , being branches of th crooked , sprawling trees , which gnu along the streams in thin vicitiitj The man was a counterpart of hi load , boiiiK Junk and gawkey , an with hair tliat had -not been cut u combed in years. "ifou're on the wrong road entire ly , Jerome must bo up on Drif twooi Bomowhar , don't know just whs though ; if iU 'tweonhnro and Atwood though , you'll strike it. You dnv right across the prairie andyou'l etriko Ledge Creek road right bolo\ \ that ledge of rock , " pointing one o the solitary ledges or heads that ar omotiraus seen hero , standing out ii bold relief on the top of thu ifighri joint of bluff in eight. "It is a per \ fcctly plait ! rend clear through to Atvfood , goes ri ht up Ledge Greek , then over tbo divide to Driftwood to where you arlor gone at first , but you'll niako it all right. It's a perfectly plain road and you can't ' miss it. " After driving nil almost unlimited distance , and wind- in L' nil over the surface of the country always Inking the road which seemed the most traveled wo came at last tea a dug-out under a hill whore the road seemed to come to an end. Hero a girl of no particulara o or sbapo , inform ed in that wo were on the wrong road , "that wo must go back ever the hill and cross Driftwoud , and go right up the bottom " It H a perfectly plain road and you can't rnisi it" Wo wont. wont.Wo crossed a stream wo supposed vas Driftwood and then drifted up he valley a good many miles , until , hero Viis no valley , and wo found raolTos on top of the "divido" look- ng two ways for a road , ours having come to an end. It is snid that fortune favors the iravo , nnd that Providence never do- eerts his votaries , Without drawftig any inference , however , just afl wo didn't ' kno.w what to do , a coiiplo of tuntors , clad in buckskin , appeared ipon the ncono. "Wall , " said one , in a tone that iro'claimedhis Vankeoorigin , "There's ow roads. Ono you'll git by yoiii1 right down across that crick and up in the divide beyond. The other in right down in this holler ; drive right down hero and turn to your right aud wu'll bo jist where you want'to go. 't'H a perfectly straight , plain road and you cain't miss it. The "perfectly straight , plain road" od us up through the roughest canyon [ over saw. Sometimes with the Miggy almost on the horses backs , .hen again pulling out of the crook to , ho top of the blulF , and then down nto the bottom again. Presently ho road came to an end in front ) f a sod house , from which a genial iut picturesque looking man emerged. IIo was one of the tallest men I ever saw , about six foot six , I nhould .hink . , and ho had lived on the plains or about twonty-livo years ; was tbo lint settler in this section of country. "They've been Bondin' yotho wrong way , the hull on 'em , " ho said , as wo told him how wo had boon liroctcd. "Jist take this trail , loadin' ip this side o' that draw till you git o tbo main traveled road goin' south hat's aboute a mild from here , then oiler that road till you coma to tbo lead Of this canyon and bond around t to thu right , and you'll come out all rittlit. One's on Ucavor crock , , hon keep right up the bottom. 't is a porfpctly plain road and you can't miss it. " lie was right , and just after aun- lown wo found ourselves on the Joavor Creek bottom seventeen miles on an airline , from Atwood , having topped once in the time toatiBuro out- elves that wo wore on the right road , lore wo were nome place , anyway , for uiro wo found Hcrndon postoflice. It was now that wo began apain , h > eel our appetites pleading with OB for ood. Wo made inquiries and wore directed to the residence of Mr. Allen ibout three miles up the bottom ; ho , when wo arrived there , directed us to 'uiil Jacobs , about a mile further on. Mr. Jacobs is a Gorman , speaking but little English , and bis wife speaks none ; but wo managed .o niako our wants known , and'his umiablo frau wont to work ind'got ' UH up a good supper , while ho ed our team. After supper wo started again with \lr. \ Jacobs on horseback ahead to ; et us started right , as he said. Mo liloted'us to the road and gave us di- cctioim to Atwood. "You goes straight oop dor greek , ind geops on dor greek ash dor root u'side ; uobon miles und you gomes afer ash Ludoll , und sobtm miles morn ash Ludoll you finds Atwood. Der root ish sthraight and bluin , und you licbt canno moos it. " Two miloa further and we came tea a fork in the road. Of course wo took the wrong ono , followed it u mile or Iwo , found that it wont elF on the bluff somewhere , BO wo struck out across the prairie for lie other road , which wo know must > o between the blulfs somewhoro. Wo next found ourselves in a corn- iold , and what Boomed a special in- .orposition of Providence. NYc ran icrosa the mud residence of a Bo- lomiaii , who led UH to the load nnd sent UG on our way rejoicing. We reached Ludoll at i ) o'clock , and were directed to Atwood. Thu direc tions were given by a gentleman of mine who hud BOIIHO enough to give explicit directions , but he stated as wo were sturting out , "it is a perfectly plain road , and you c.m't miss it. " An hour later and iho spires of Atwood were HighUid glorious spec tacle. Wo have never experienced n more positive ooiuo of delight than when wo realiKod that we were entering the city which had nil day boon our aim. It seemed us if all the mercies' of heaven had been showered upon us at once ; we were unqualifiedly happy. It was demonstrated later that we had loft Jerome to our right sovora ! anilus that those " ' , "perfectly plain' roads had been the wrong onus near ) } .o.vory time. .Atwood , the county eoat of ! Uw < line county , Kaunas , is very brigbl iow.u.ot about ono hundred inhabi Unto. The county was organized laal Juno , .ind has made rapid progress ii settlement and school organ irutiui uud junlunal prosperity. Tiio mitorosts of Itawlina county , Kna.j aud Hitchcock county , Neb. are identic * ! . Their railroad poiir ( Oulbortaiui ) in the same , their soil ii the name. , and the .people win have partwlly settled them an of the sauio class. Thoue wlu farm well , have had good crops , noun persons linviug raised twenty-eight bushels of wheat , nnd lifty bushels o corn , per iwro. i CulberUon , tbo seat of Jlitohcocl county. Nob. , in t thn end of the or ganfeou divieion < A the railroad. Con Btruelion trains run from hero some times out to "tho front" to supply tin work which is being rapidly pushei towmla Uuiivur. Tliih city hag two hotels , four stores a pontotllco , iwo feed stables and om livery etablo , where they charge tin most exorbitant prices of any place ii America that I have known und would advise anyone who hot to taki a trip acrosg the country , to stop a some other place und got a team , a this man watiU you to buy his rif ftix then give it back to him. /The location jnf tho'town ' Is a good ono , nnd as sooii as this sprint ; opens,1 building will bo pushed ahena as fast as possible. Several now men are already hero looking for sites for places of business , nnd some have purchased their loin. Of Atwood , KB. , 1 neglected to Btato that it is situated on the line of the projected Central Branch of the I * . 1' . nt its junction with Beaver crook. When that rend is built , hero will almost necessarily bo a division point , on account of its geographical location. SniiitnuiK. She Passed It Along.

Some time ago Miss Wampton , and n beautiful young farmer named tockton were married. The young ady would not have been termed n 'happy bride. " Shu had never loved lock ton , and only iimrijcd to please a widowed mother. "I will oboyyou , " said the girl , "but I do not oven like Mr. Ilockton. 'I hero h nothing in sympathy between u . Ho is wealth iut while poverty always brings inisfl y , yet w'ealth docs not always bring lappinces. You know that I am do- roted to Tom llosomonci , and that ho s devoted to mo ; but'if > ou , as my mother , command mo , I will obey , oven though thu effort coat mo my life as well as my happiness. " The ceremony was performed , iosomond , who would have been the ( irl'a choice , loft the neighborhood , lock ton and bin wife began keeping louse. Six months afterward Iloso- nond returned and sent Mrs. Reckon - on a note begging an interview. She bowed the note and her answer of re- usal to her husband. He hissed her aa n reward of fidelity. Rockton was akon sick with swamp fever , and whim about to die , ho said : "You have been a faithful wife , ftno women out of ton would have 'un away long a o. I have always cnown that you loved Rosemond. I lave sent for him. I want you to marry him before I die BO that I can nee tbo ceremony. " "That would not bo legal , " answered - sworod the ivifo , "for I cannot marry mother man BO ' long us you are liv- ng. " "Well , but I want him bore so I an sco that the ceremony bo per- ormcd immediately after I am dead. " RoBomond and a preacher woroaont or. They arrived. Rockton gasped ind motioned. The marriage party approached the bod. Brockton placed ho hands of the levers together , gasped , and died. The proanher aised'hia hand , and the lovora were married. FREB OF COST. DK.
