A circular has been printed nnd is being ing circulated "strictly confidential , "call ing upon thoao interested in the brewing and distilling business to join forces in an attempt to defeat the republicans in Ohio , on account of the temperance issue there. A mooting is to bo held at Cincinnati a few days before the Ohio election , and this circular is intended to mnko up strength and "a hand" to give the sinews of war to that conference. Strange to aay the names of a number of the demo cratic officials of this city appear attached to the circular ; The trouble between Billy Lewis and Charlie Allen has boon pretty thorough ly aired in the courts , and it appears there was a little bad fooling between them. Allen came for him with a sling shot , whereupon Lewis downed him , got the sling shot away , and pounded him moro severely than was necessary per haps. Allen has boon fined $5.00 i.nd costs for carrying concealed weapons , and the Judge intimated on acquitting Lewis from the charge of assault with Intent to do great bodily harm , that1 a 'charge of assault and battery would stick , and Lewis intimated that if this charge waa filed against him ho would plead guilty. The announcement in yesterday's BKE of the marriage of Rev.

ISS5S SLUGGED AND SENSELESS. A Dniilap Man Found Nearly Mur dered No Trace of By "Whom or AVlint Ho IVnH lilt. About 0 o'clock yesterday morning ono of the employes of the Weston house discovered in an outbuilding in the rear of the hotel a man lying insensible , his head all blood , and hisclothinq in a badly demoralized condition. Officer Towns got a wagon and took the man to police headquarters , where ho was placed on a bed in ono of the upper rooms and a physician called. After washing off the blood and dirt , it was found that the man had received a terrible blow on the head nnd tbo skull apparently fractured. Ho had evidently been drinking , and it was difficult to determine closely how much of his stupid condition was duo to the blow and how much to the whisky. But as the day wore away ho did not rally any , and in response to questions ho gave very inco herent muttorings. The man waa Identified ns Mr. McOal- laghan , of Dunlap , who formerly ran a saloon there , and who owns some valua ble farming property near there. Mo- Gallaghan was iioro the day before drink ing some , nnd in the evening was quite far gone , so that at ono or two places more drinks were refused him. About 9 o'clock in the evening ho was soon sitting on a ploco of sewer pipe on Broadway. It is thought that some ono slugged him for what money ho had , for when found ho had not n nickel on hia person , and his watch and chain were gono. Ho generally carries money In his pocket , and some times quito largo quantities , but his con dition was such yesterday that no information mation could bo gained from him. OUT ON THE PBAIRIES , Experiences ol n Council II In fife Tourist In Kansas , To the Editor of Tilts BKK. KENNETH , Kansas , October 1. 1 loft Council Bluff * September 19 and after tthrco days traveling finally landed hero in Kenneth , the county seat of Sheridan county , Kansas. This is In the midst ol the great plains which stretch out from the Missouri river to the foot of the Rockies. Their beauty and magnificent , j can scarcely bo described. The topography graphy of the country Is the most beaut9 ful I over behold and if more rain over blesses this section it certainly can with truth bo called the garden of Eden of America. The soil is a rich black loam from two to four foot daon and for qual ity not excelled. The liost of water is found everywhere but lies deep say about ono hundred feet , This is a great cattle , horse and sheep country. Hero the famed cowboy piles his business in all his frontier glory. Big whlto hat with leather belts around themleather leggings big saddles , Mexican ponies and the nec essary lasso are always to bo soon. The cowboy isn't half as mean a man as the pictures innko him , in fact the ponies are tho'moanor of the two. Buffalo grass is king , , though blue stem is niakir < { rapid inroads , much to the delight of the farm er but not to the hordor. The phenome na "mirago" is soon nearly every morn ing , Trees , towns otc. , are soon distinct' ly , though the objects reflected are 20 to 40 miles away , ft is something akin to awe when ono gazes at the endless , beau- t'ful ' , rolling prairies. Their sameness their monotony , their nakedness and their nice undulations all in the aggre gate at once make a picture at first dreary , but beautiful In its grand entire- ty. Iioro is where the buffalo once roamed at pleasure , their tiails and the 90-oallod buffalo wallows now being the only signs that remind ns of their former overwhelming numbers Is it possible that the maker of this great section intended it only for pastures ? Wo hope not. The corn 'this year will average - ago 40 bushels , wheat 35 , rye 30 and millet three to four tons per ncro IIow with anxious pyo ouch possible cloud is watched. Will it bring rain is the ques tion. Yes ? No I It lias passed over probably to give its blessing to a moro pastern section. Emigration is pouring in again ; for bo it remembered that five years ago every foot of this country was taken up , and good , strong hands wont to tilling and planting the neil , but the drouth sot in nnd all their bright hopes were blasted. Nothing daunted they wont to work next season again , and again the same result awarded their labors. Then came the stampede back to fair Iowa , otc. The timber culture has proved quito a failure , much to the detriment of the country. Rain , rain , rain is the prayer. I saw a beautiful sight this afternoon. Some light floozy innocent clouds passed over our heads , and as tliry slowly wended their way outward wo uould BOO ; hem grthoring their forces , their color darkened , they grow angry , the lighten- ng flashed , and the faint rumble of .hundor from afar struck our oar as if some great monster was writhing and noaning with pain. Presently wo saw train , and as the lightning Hashed and the thunder rolled , wo retired to our room to wojdor at the awful grandeur of creation. If any Iowa bays intend com- ng out hero , they ought to go into stock ihcop or horses , and a f < iw ducats won't bo amiss. Anyone thinking to como out can address mo for full particulars , 0 , E. A DOLT. A Hull Kill I. Yestcrdap morning when tha smoke was discovered pouring out of the old rookery corner of Broadway and Scott street , Mr. Kd Britton , a well known citizen , hurried up the rickity old stairs on the outside of the building , and com menced kicking in the door. IIo was leaning back against the railing around the platform at the held of the stairs , and as ho gave a kick the railing gave way , letting hint fall backward into the street. His back was quito badly hurt , and ho will be kept confined to hia homo 'or several day * , and perhaps his injuries may prove even moro serious , Worthy of Special Mention. Among the many atiractiro features of ho exposition in progress at the skating rink is the booth in which mi exhibit is iiftdo of some of the many beautiful arti cles to bo found in Bliss' millinery estab- iihment on Broadway. A mammoth i&raaol serves as a conopy , while obovo ho tastily dripjd nnd decorated space appears in floral loiters "J. J. Blhs. " The goods are arranged into a charming display , and the ladies especially are to bo constantly found there in groups , ad miring and commenting. Ono special feature is an oil painting by Mrs. Bliss , of which too much cannot bo said in praise. It attracts probably moro niton tcntion than any other single painting in the exposition. It is a copy of a very old and valuable French piece , and those who are judges of real art find > n it apodal features of moilt which call forth many highly complimentary words. Mrs. Bliss may well fool proud of it , IVull In the Wcat. Anyone doubting the capability of the west to raise choice fruit , could have had such doubts swept away if they could have soon the fmo showing of apples loft at THE BIK : oflico yesterday , from the orchard of Win. B. Porter , about two miles from Plattamouth. The fruit was so tempting that THE BEE force soon put much of it beyond the roach of serving as proof of what the west can produce. They are certainly as fine apples as any state could produce , nnd included sam ples of the following varieties : Missouri i'ipin , Maiden Blush , Fall Pippin , Vnndo Wine , Norhtorn Spy , Belle Flower , Whlto Winter Poarinan , Dominic , Ben Davis , Tulpabockin , Famouso or Snow , Jonathan , .landing , Baldwin , Wino , Sap , Roman Stem , Golden Russet , Fall Straw- bony , Fall Wino and Lowell.
