Some of the facts of the following horribly
ribly romantic story were developed In
the trial which succeeded their occur
rence , but recently told by some of the
actors , have never before boon published ,
It Bcoma that in 1882 a man named Jack
son was engaged in freighting to the Un-
compaghro and White lllvor agencies ,
hauling government freight and supplies.
In his employ as a driver was his nephew ,
a young man also named Jackson. Ono
day , after having delivered a load of
freight at the agency , on their return the
jAcksons wont Into camp for the night ,
after having traveled some miles. No
sooner had they stopped than an Indian
rode up and demanded supper. Young
Jackson said , "Supper ia not ready , yet ,
but aa soon as wo got It you can have
soino. "
THE INDIAN IIECAME VEUY AIIUS1VH
and with some rough cplthoU said , "mo
want it now. " Jackson repeated his
former statement , that it was not ready
and ho would have to wait. This scorned
to ohrogo the rodaklu , who at once pulled
his gun on the young man to enforce hla
demands. Jackaon then ran around the
wagon , got hia rillo and fired at but did
not hit the Indian , who galloped oil'at
full speed to the agency where ho re
ported the matter in his own way. The
agent immediately returned with him
and n party of Indians , and demanded
from Jackaon the surrender of the young
man. Fearing for his safety , the old
man refused at first , but the agent gave
his word that ho should not bo injured ,
that ho would merely bo taken to the
post for a hearing.to satisfy the Indians.
Upon this assurance being given the
young man was given up , but notwith
standing the pledge of the ngont they
had not proceeded on their return to the
agency when the agent yielded to the de
mands of the Utoa and surrendered the
prisoner to them. They at once took him
to the timber , tied him to a tree , and
amid the most disgusting orgica ,
TORTUIIEI ) HIM TO DVATII IN A MOST I10U-
] lIlir.E 3IANNEIU
His uncle , upon ascertaining his fate ,
made the best of hia way back and upon
arriving at Del Korto detailed the par
ticulars of the tragedy to a largo and excited -
cited crowd. Among those present was
a young man named Lowe , who , upon
hearing the story , said "thd s of a
b should bo killed , " moaning the
fluent. ' 'I will give you a hone and
$500 if you will do it , " said Jackson.
Lowe accepted the proposition , and
the next day , well mounted and armed
and with a liberal advance of the sum
agreed upon , started on his mission of
blood. Aa the fooling of having money
In bis pocket was a novel ono , upon ar
riving at Sapuacho ho proceeded to
"blow himself in , " and got gloriously
drank. Having spent all his money
there was nothing loft ( or him but to got
sober and proceed on his journey to the
agency. Upon arriving there ho was mot
by the agent who , perhaps mistrusting
him , proceeded to
TLY HIM WITH LIQUOll.
and while under Its effects Lowe confided
to him the object ot his mission. The
agent naturally fooling that his position
was a critical ono , nnd fooling no com-
unctions for tno fate of the younger
S acksou to which ho had so largely" con
tributed , then made a proposition to
Lowe fully as extraordinary as the ono
made by Jackson , which was that ho
would pay $1000 for the murder of the
freighter. This being a bettor offer
Lowe at once accepted it and started qn
his return to carry ont the terms of the
contract. Arriving at Del Norto ho at
once sought out Jackson , who asked If
ho had killed the agent. "No , " said
Lowe , " 1 found him to bo a very good
sort of a follow , and besides ho made mo
a bettor offer than yours. "
"What was ill" asked Jackson.
"Ho raised you and offered mo $1,000
to kill you , and I want to know what
you are going to do about HI"
"I don't understand you , " said the
amazed freighter.
" 1 moan just what I say ;
HE HAH KAISEI ) YOU S.)00 ,
and I want to know if you Intend to raise
him ? "
"Why , no , of course not , " said Jack
son ; "and if I don't , what do you intend
to do ? "
"Well. I think that unless you made a
bettor oll'or I would have to accept his.1 '
"You do , do you ? " said Jackson.
"Yes , " said Lowe ; "I don't kno * what
oleo lean do. "
Jockson then walked oil and loft him
and got a double-barreled shot gun from
hla house. Ho then wont to Ewlng's
hardware store , obtained some buckshot
cartridges , with which ho loaded the gun ,
and returned to the blacksmith shop
where the conversation had taken place.
Lowe , In the meanwhile , wont off , got
shaved and then got on his horse and
started down the street , Winchester in
hand. Jackson , who was standing in the
door of the blacksmith shop , saw him
coming , and fooling sura that Lowe would
carry out his cold-blooded Intention ,
raised his gun as Lowe passed and put a
heavy charge of buckshot into him ,
KILLINO HIM INSTANTLY.
Lowo'a lifeless body fell from the horse
nto the street. Jackson , as soon as ho
aw the result of his shot jumped upon
ils horse and fled the country , remaining
iway until the convening of the district
court , when ho returned and surrendered
himself for trial , which took place at the
amo terra of court. Knowing that his
own course lu the promises waa not free
from blame , ho having boon the first t <
offer a price for his enemy's life , ho madi
the peculiar dofouso that Lowe had slandered
dored his wife ; also that ho had kllloc
him in solf-dofenao. The result , however
over , was that ho was acquitted.

A. New Oar Coupler Designed to I'rc
vent tlio Hlauclitur or
llrakriiion ,
Philadelphia I'resn.
The last on the Hat of new patent cs
couplers waa exhibited to a number c
railroad-toon at Oonchohockon on Satui
day afternoon. It is the Invention c
Messrs. Curtis and Wood , of that boi
ough. It ia worked by a crank at tb
side of the platform , making It unnocei
sary for the brakeman to go between tli
car * . The bullnoso between the bun
pen la of precisely the same pattern i
that now in aao. Instead of a link an
pin , however , a llnic and stool hook ai
uaed. This la placed iu a slot with
1 I rpnrjn. .In f nl. rin had ljiir lliF V >
coupling link strikes tno car the slot I
hook files Into position , firmly Inserting
Itself Into the link , and doinfl the coup
ling automatically , The ntool hook is
connected with a rod running ont to the
cdgo of the car nnd a movement of that
does the Uncoupling.
5Tho coupler was experimented with ,
and it worked satisfactorily each timo.
The cars to which it WAS Attached were
placed between a shifting engine and a
number of other oars , heavily laden , the
whole trainbolngrun rapidly upanddown
the track to test the strength of the
device. The company then proceeded to
experiment with the coupler , and it was
submitted to every test known to railroad
men. Among these present , besides the
Inventors , were Isaac A. Swoigard , super
intendent of the Bound Brook division of
the Reading railroad ; Chief Engineer
Bonzanno , of the same company ; Thomas
W. Barlow , A. O. Ilomphlll , vice-presi
dent of the Norfolk & Western railroad ;
Charlca 8. Taflon , general manager of the
Nlokol Plato road , and II. 8. Eckort.
president of the Farmers' and Mechanics'
bank , of Reading.
The inventors of the coupler claim that
it is as cheap as the ordinary link and pin ,
that it TT111 couple any car with on ordi
nary link and pin , and that it will abso
lutely prevent loss of lifo among brako-
men. It is said that 0,000 men are killed
annually through thn present car coupler.

But there occurs to mo at this moment
: ono little oplnodp in our college lifo which
may boar repeating to these of the pres
ent generation. 1 refer to a visit which
General Jackson , then president of the
United States , with several members of
his cabinet , paid to Brown university. It
occurred in tbo summer of 1832 or 1833.
There were no railroads thon. ZIo and
his retinue came by stage-coach and
steamboat from Washington to Provi
dence. They stopped at the Oily hotel.
AH other distinguished mon called upon
thorn , among others the venerable Moses
Brown. It used to bo related what ho said
to the president on being introduced : "I
m glad to BOO thoo. I have voted
for all thy prodcccsaoro. " Dr. Wayland
and the faculty called upon him and in
vited him to visit the college. Ho came ,
and lot mo toll you how ho camo. There
was quito a procession of carriages. Wo
hadn't many hackney conches in Provi
dence at that time , but Gen. Jackson
carne on horseback upon a famous white
horse owned by that excellent manChan.
II. Ohilds , llvory stable keeper on Orange -
ango stroot. Everybody in Providence
know the horse by sight and namo. Ho
waa called "Con. Washington. " 1 shall
never forgot the scene in that little old
chapel after Gen. Jackson had dismount
ed and aacondod the stage with Mr. Van
Buron , the faculty and a few other dis
tinguished gentlemen. But Gen.
Oass , who was to address the
students , was not thoro. By some
accident his arrival was delayed , and the
audlonco was qulto uneasy. In a few
moments ho arrived , and I can BOO him
now almost aa plainly as I saw him then ,
ascending the eastern stops to the stage
of that llttlo chapel , with his white
beaver hat in his hand. Conscious that
ho was late , ho advanced at once to the
front , and in a llttlo apooch of five
minutes , while ho pointed to President
Jackson as the example of what pprsovor-
Ing ellbrt and loyalty to duty might ac
complish iu this republic , ho stirred the
hearts of hia hearers , and I well re

of a Mllllonnlro ,
Washington. Letter to Cleveland Leader ,
Warwick Martin , the author of several
books on political economy , tells mo" ho
lent Ralston , the California mllllionalro
who committed suicide a year or two ago ,
the money to pay his passage to Califor
nia. Said ho : ' 'Ralston was born in
Virginia , on the other side of the river ,
very near the Ohio lino. Ho worked for
my brother for some time as a young
man and I acquired perfect confidence in
him. I was for years a banker in Now
Orleans and I once lent young Ralston
$7,000 without any other security other
than his own honor. This waa in 18-15.
Ralaton had some interest at that time lu
a steamboat on the Mississippi river and
I think ho used the money in con
nection with It. When the California
gold fever broke out ho came to my bank
and took up hia note , paying cash in full.
Ho then said : 'I am now free from debt ,
but I have no money. I want to go to
Panama and perhaps to California. I
think there Is a chunce for mo to make
some money in the employment of Frotz
& Garrison , in Panama. If I do not suc
ceed there I wlah to go to California.
Will you lend mo money to pay my ex
penses to the isthmus and credit , so that
if I fail there I can go to
San Francisco ? ' I replied 'Certainly , '
and gave him enough to take him to
Panama and a letter of credit sufficient
for the remainder of hla trip if it was
necessary. A few months' after this I
received a letter from him remitting from
Panama my letter of credit and the money
I had advanced him. It was twenty years
after this before I again heard from him
personally. Ho had then become the
great San Francisco millionaire , and ho
was ono of the wealthy men of the nation.
I was in Now York in 18U9 and needed
money badly. I wrote to Mr. Ralaton
nd told him I was about to engage in an
intorpriso which might take $5,000 , and
might require $10,000. If ho could lot
tno have either Bum 1 would bo glad to
, vall myself of his assistance. On the
day that this letter must bavo rpachod
3au Francisco I received a telegram from
Mr. Ralaton , telling mo to draw upon
Lees & Waller for $10,000. With the
ologratn In my hand I went to this bank-
ng houao , and on the presentation of H
ho bankers informed mo that this sura
had boon placed there to my credit by
Mr. Ralston on that very day. It Is said
that Mr. Ralston committed suicide , bul
the fact has boon disputed , and I doubl

Mrs. Elizabeth Kropecr is not ft model
boarding houao keeper. She Is not too
thin , neither is oho groeflly fat. She in
buxom without boliif , ' too apparent , and
the bloom on her check is tempting
enough to coax a kits from any man not
soured , ller boarding houao , No. 508
Tenth avenue , is a hospital for weary
boarders made tired of lifo by tough
steak and the never-ending mutton. Ilor
customers soon grow sleek and grateful
under her juicy moats and timely vege
tables. She has saved many men on the
verge of self , destruction.
Acroea the avenue , on the edge of Thir
ty-eighth street , is the shop of Alexander
Weber , a delicate butcher who has
studied anatomy for many years , and who
can crave out a steak of any kind or di
mension. Mrs. Krepsor has traded with
him often , and the stern man of the
cleaver always loitered over the weight
of the pigs' ribs or dallied with the tape
line when meaauring the sausages in or
der to engage her in conversation. She
told him about her boarders ; ho told her
about the difference in livers and lights.
It was a case of mutual enjoyment.
Of couno it was too beautiful to last.
On Friday Mrs. Kropaor wna la a hurry.
One of the boarders was up late the night
before and called wildly for beef tea and
a ploco of raw moat for his painful oycs.
Mrs. Kropaor dashed across tliu street to
the butchers and ordered the meat.
What followed she herself told Justice
Patterson yesterday. She went back to
her house , fooling confident that the moat
would soon follow her. It did , in the
hands of the butcher , She paid him and
the steaks were traneferred to her arms.
The man of meat could not resist the
temptation that the picture offered before
him.
him.Tho
The door was just ajar but no outsider
could see the tableau. The boardinghouse -
house keeper's rosy cheeks and roguish
oycs stole away the butcher's senses.
There she stood with an armful of moat ,
while over the other arm dropped a link
of sausage. Ono little curl fell over her
loft oar. In the corner behind the door
stood a broom. It was too enticing fo
the dealer in chops , and ho embraced the
opportunity and the woman. Ho im
printed ono kiss on her cheek and gently
bit her nose.
Indignantly she dropped the 8toakbnt
instinctively she clung to the sauoagoa. A
vagrant dog shoved open the door and
snatched the moat , but the insulted
young woman never heeded the episode.
She screamed and a man ran to her assis
tance. Weber denied the kiss and the
noso-bito and Mrs. Kropaor w ont to the
West Twontloth'strcot police station to
bo avenged. Weber was arrested. His
story differs slightly from Lire. Kropsor's ,
The butcher says that ho did take the
moat across the way , but he did not sot
paid for it , agreeing to trust her a few
days. Gho aakod him to stop inside ,
after which she locked the door and
screamed. A man appeared and was told
by the woman that she had been Insulted ,
but that for § 200 she would forgive if she
could not forgot. Sir. Weber reckoned
up the coat and found that It represented
too much meat. Therefore ho resolved
to make no bones of the matter and re
fused outright. Ho says that his pretty
customer has often been in his shop and
has acted scandalously in winking at mpn ,
making eyes and amtling In a captivating
manner. She had often Invited him to
stop into the parlor , but he had resisted
all advances till the fatal day. Ho re
marked that he would not kiss her any
how if she asked him thus to please her.
Mrs. Kropaer thinks that § 1,000 la
' for that kiss although
about tho' right price ,
though Weber might have had two for
$1,500 , C per cent , discount. Mr.
Weber thinks' that 5 cents would bo a
liberal estimate on an article for which
ha has no use and for which ho would
not pay one cent.
to Old Prices ,
New York Letter to Albany Kxprens.
It has boon reported that next week
trill witness a restoration of the price of
newspapers to their former tignros.
George Alfred Townsend once pithily remarked -
marked that a newspaper ought to cost
as much aa it does to have one's boots
blacked , and ho was unquestionably cor
rect. The fight in newspaper circles for
circulation , which was begun by the
Times last year , in reducing its price
from four to two cents , Una led to noth
ing but evil results. The Herald quickly
followed , and the Tribune promptly reduced -
ducod from four to three cents. The ro-
suit of this has not boon what the pub
lishers anticipated , if common reports
are reliable. The circulations of the
journals have not boon materially In
creased and the shrinkage iu receipts
must have boon enormous. The Herald
at once became Involved in a quarrel with
the newsdealers , and ondlcsa trouble to
innumerable persons has boon caused.
The result of the reduction on the work-
lug staffs of the papers has been oven
more Injurious. The salaries of reporters
were at once reduced , and what was
lost In selling the papers was partially
made up in producing them. A re.
orter's position on the Times is no )
worth as much now as it was before the
eduction by twenty-five per cent. II
never was worth anything on the Tribune ,
, nd the loss entailed by the newsdealers' '

that paper. Nineteen of them were dis

have boon retained on salaries of $50 i

did , and the excellence of the work 01
the former journal Is more largely duo ti
the admirable inside management of thi

Another reason Is owing to the fact tha
the Times still has one of the best loca

members of wtilch prefer to remain in th
employ of the paper , even at reduced psy
than to seek positions on any other journe

NKW YOKK , November 20. Gen. Joh
A. Logan Is at the Fifth Avenue hote
lie arrived this morning and will n
main over Thanksgiving , when he w !
join Mrs. Logan lu "Washington , The
Logan's room this afternoon , and ho sur
prised all hla friends with the light
hearted and cheery manner In which hi
gpoko of his recent defeat.
" 1 do not think Logan would fool hall
as badly , " said a ftiend of his this evening -
ing , "if it were not for the fact that lu
was beaten by such an old copperhead a :
Hondricks. "
To-night Gen. Logan oald laughingly ,
"I have nothing to Bay to the proas. We
are whipped , and that's all there is of it ,
For myself , " ho added , "I fenl a good
deal like the man who stubbed his too ,
and sat down on a stump to nurse It. All
his friends cimo around to sympathize
with him , plying him with all aorta ol
questions about how ho felt. 'It hurU
pretty bad , don't ill' they asked , bat the
old follow was a little too much occupied
squeezing his too to answer. Finally he
blurted out : The wo rat of it ia I am too
big to cry and the thlntj hurts too bid to
laugh. ' And that , " Bald Gen. Logan , 4 > ie
the way I fool. "
After the election General Logan wont
down to his farm in Southern Illinois to
rocuporato. The place contains about
300 acres of well cultivated land , and the
general saya that after tha 4th of March
ho oxpocta to become n granger in oar-
nest. General Logan attributes the defeat
of his party to the utterances of Barchard
rather than anything olso. Ho says the
Irish-Americana In Chicago , except the
most bitter democrats , had always sup
ported him , and that ho had never run
for any ofllco in Illinois when ho failed
to carry Chicago by 0,000 to 7,000. This
year tbo majority ran down to 3,000 , and
numbers of Irishmen had told him that
thor voted against him for the first timo.
Ho attributes all thia to Barchard's re
marks.

Professor Budd , in the Iowa Home
stead , condemns the storing of cuttings in
the collar aa ordinarily practiced , "in
oand or earth just moist enough to preserve -
servo thorn in condition suitable for graft
ing , as thus they will fall to absorb the
requisite moisture needed for changing
starch stored in the cell strncturo into
sugar water , and the base of the cuttings
instead of callouaingwill bo found n little
blackened and the bark nud cambium
layer at the extreme base dead or nearly
so. If those cuttings arc put out the
upper buds will start , when the requisite
heat Is furnished by the sun , and exhaust
all the stored nutriment in the cutting
before a show of callousing is exhibited
at the baae. On the other hand , if the
same cuttings were packed in Band in a
corner of the collar , or in shallow boxes ,
with the base of the cuttings up ward and
screened from the air by not more
than two. inches of sand , kept all
the time moderately moist by sprinkling ,
every cutting will callous. When plant
ed in the opou air such cutting trill omit
roots before the top buds make much of
a start , and with fuw failures will make
nice plants before full. But the commer
cial grower should not bother wth keep
ing ligneous cuttings in the collar. It ia
far better to put them In a pit in the open
air. Set the bundles upside down in a
shallow pit of dry ground , aa tight to
gether as they can bo crowded , Cover
over the top about five inches of earth ,
and as it grows cold cover the hole with
fresh horse mature to mainly keep out
frost. As the sun gains strength in the
spring take off the manure and rake the
earth fine and even. The sun heat will
finish the callousing of the butts of the
cuttings by the time the ground la ready
to receive them. Treated in this way
the farmer can root the grape , the woig-
olia , the tree honeysuckle , several of the
spireas , the catalpa , and a greater
number of trees than ho might suppose
possible./ / '

A 1011 CITI
The remarkable growth of Omaha
during the last few years Is a matter of
jroat astonishment to thoao who pay aa !
occasional visit to this growing city. The
development of the Stock Yards the
necessity of the Bolt Line Road the
inely paved ntrcots the hundreds of now
residences and costly business blocks ,
with the population of our city nioro" than
doubled In the last five years. All thla
s a great surprise to visitors and is thp
idmlratlon of our citizens. Thla rapid
; rowth , the business activity , and the '
nany substantial Improvements madn a
ivoly demand for Omaha'real estate , and
every Investor has made a handsome
irofit.
Since the Wall Street panlo last May ,
rlth the subsequent cry of hard times ,
hero has boon loss demand from specula-
ere , but a fair demand from Investors
looking homes. This latter class are
aking advantage of low prices In build-
ng material and are oocnrlng their homes
at much Icaa cost than will bo possible
year hence. Spoculatora , too can buy
real eata < a cheaper now and ought to take
advaut o of present prices for future
> rofiti.
The next few yoaru promises greatei
I > vol opmonta In Omaha than the past
( i v i years , which have been as good as
wo could reasonably desire. Now mail-
ifactnrlug establishments and largo job-
> lng houses are added almost weekly , and
II add to the prosperity of Omaha. -
There are many In Omaha and througn-
rat the State , who have their money In
ho banks drawing a nominal rate of 1
erest , which , If judiciously Invested in
) maha real estate , would bring them
nnch greater returns. Wo have many
jargalria which we are confident will
> ring the purchaser largo profits In the
near future.
"We have for sale the fiueat resi-
ence property in the north and
western parts of the city.
North we have fine lota atreason-
ble prices on Sherman avenue,17th ,

nia and Davenport streets has made
ccessible Borne of the finest and
cheapest residence property in the
city , and with the building of the
street car line out Farnam , the pro-
> erty in the western part of the city
will increase in value.
We also have the agency for the
Syndicate and Stock Yards pi-oper-
y in the south part of the city. The
