Kullroad Notes. .
The railroad war , .so far as the cutting
of passenger rates from Council IMufls to
Chieago arc concerned , came to an end
for the present , yesterday. While it
lasted it was both very "short and sweet. "
The Cnicago , Rock Island & Pacific road
having reduced the rates from St. Paul to
Chicago , ( Albert Lea route ) the Chieago ,
Milwaukee & St. Paul concluded to cut
from this city to Chicago , and accord
ingly the light began on Saturday last.
The Chicago & Northwestern followed
the Milwaukee & St. Paid road and also
cut , leaving the Koek Island and the Chi-
cagoUurlington&Quincytho | only routes
that stuck to the old rates from this city
direct to Chicago. On Saturday
evening the Rock Island passenger
train east carried out passengers
who had bought Milwaukee and North
western tickets at cut rates , the Hock
Island being the only road in the late pool
that left that evening. Few tickets were
sold Sunday , but the rates of Saturday
continued. Yesterday , after having
learned of the restoration of rates be
tween St. Paul and Chicago , the Milwau
kee and Northwestern both ordered the ,
old rates restored. Before their order
was received , ho\vovcrt the Rock Island ,
who leases the Union ticket ollico in this
city , notified both the Northwestern and
Milwaukee roads to remove out of their
office. This order was. however , re
scinded about noon , and "until further
orders" tickets lor the Milwaukee , Rock
Island and Northwestern roads will con
tinue to be sold at the "union" ollice , No.
C07 Uroadway.
F. A. Nash , of Omaha , general agent of
the Chicago , Milwaukee Ai St. Paul road ,
came over to Council lilnffu on the 2oO :
o'clock train from Omaha and returned
home on the 4.30 o'clock train to await
developments. As Mr. Uabcock , general
agent of the Northwestern , is in Salt
Lake , ho did not put in an appearance
hero yesterday.
The ticket ollico , No 507 Hroadway ,
was yesterday being "checked np" by
Mr. McMillan , who represented the
Union Pacific road , Mr. Button , of the
Chicago , Milwaukee & St. i'aul , and Mr.
Marshall , of the Chicago , Rock Island &
Pacific railroads , previous to turning
over the tickets to Mr. A. T. Elwoll , the
new ticket agent. The Chicago & North
western representative will check up to
day.The

Rev. Mr. Fisk of this city recently had
a decision found in his favor , which gives
him about $10,009 for services as district
attorney in Now Orleans. Hois an at
torney as well as a preacher , and about
twenty years ago was the district at
torney for Now Orleans , but not being
able to get the fees which ho claimed , he
commenced a suit which has been in the
courts SinCQi Ho pot a judgment in his
favor , but the question CV9r which the
prolonged fight has been is whothoi' the
authorities shall bo compelled to levy a
tax to meet the judgment. The lower
state court decided that such an order
should bo issued , but an appeal was
taken to the supreme court of Louisiana ,
and that court revised this decision.
M. Fisk then appealed to tlio supreme
court of the United States , and after a
dreary waiting and prolonged contest
that court bus decided in his favor , and
sent back the case to tlio supreme court
of Louisiana with instructions to issue
an order in accordance with this ruling.
The old gentleman has not Keen a dollar
of the money yet , although the decision
was reached ten months ago. It is said
that the Louisiana court is hesitating us
to whether the ruling of the United
States court should bu considered au
thoritative or not. There the matter
rests under advisement , but there seems
little doubt that ore long the cash itself
must bo foithcoming.

Anecdotes of nu Old Urlfjadlcr Con
gressman.
Correspondence of tlio Minneapolis
Tribnnu : One of tlio characters in the
lioiiso is ( Jen , Wolford , of Kentucky.
While ho is at homo ho wears 1111 old
llnnncl shirt und pants strapped about
his waist. When ho cnine hero ho found
Hint ho had to change his costumu und
put on u "bilcd" shirt and black clothes.
At first ho was averse to this , but some
friends bought him n black suit. Ho lias
Worn it uvur since , and this is his sccon'd
term. Hut ho would not dare go homo
dressed as ho is now , for his constituents
would think ho had boconio cll'cminato.
Several good stories are told of his lirst
campaign , when ho took the stump
against Gon. Fry. His speech on tlio
J'itJohn Porter case last week revives
them. When ho was lirst nominated by
tint democrats for congress , ( Sun. Fry
asked him to unite with film and make
hovcral speeches together. Wolford au-
copied the invitation. The tirst mooting
was enough for ( Jen. Fry. Gen. Wolford
commamled tlio First Kentucky cavalry
in the Union army , and the regiment
was know as the "criltorbacks. " Ho
had several of his men on the platform
with him when ho mudo his speech. Ho
opened most brilliantly , but suddenly
startled Gen. Fry by asking the as
semblage if they knew what tliu union
hud done with Cen. ! Leo after ho sur
rendered nt Appomattox ? "Why , gen
tlemen , will you bt-liovo it , when ho was
out walking under an apple tree , near
the very house whom ho surrendered ,
they grabbed him. Yes , the men who
had granted him a parole , soi/od him ,
and , sir. they not only did thai , but they
hung Gen. LPC to the vor.y apple trco
under which ho was walking ! Hung
him dead ! " Gen. Fry at lh > t was so sur
prised he could not speak , but jumping
to his feet , ho said : "Gen. Wolford , you
know that is not so. Gen. Leo was
never hung. "
"Hut sir , " exclaimed Gen. Wolford ,
" 1 was there und 1 know itisso , Wasn't '
it , John ! " and ho turned to ono tif his
"critterbacks. " The man nodded his
head , us did the others who sat near him.
Gen. Fry sank back in his chair over
come.
"This is not all , " said Gen. Wolford ,
turning to the crowd in front of him.
"The Union men locked Jon" Davis up in
Fortress Monroe and one beautiful moon
light night wlien the lido was low , they
took him out and tied him to a stake on
the beach. The sou came in and grad
ually the waves swept over him and ho
was drowned , and they stood and heard
his cries. "
This was too much for Gen. Fry.
Again he protested and said that Jen" Da
vis was alive still , but the "crittcrbacks"
indorsed ( Jen. Wolford , and seeing that
his opponent intended to keep thu thing
up , Gen. Fry withd.iow and Gen. Wolford
was elected by a rousing majority.
Another story is told of Gon. Wolford
when lie was trying a ca o in his native
town in Aitair county , Kentucky. His
client had been charged with poisoning
someone. The chemist for the htato had
testified to finding arsenic in the
stomach of the deceased , and then
Gon. Wolford took tlio witness in hand
"Uo you find anv flics' wings in the
stomach ? " asked the general. "No , sir ,
for I did not look for any. I found
arsenic. " answered the chemist.
"Could you swear that there were no
flics' wing in the stomach ? " ho asked.
"No , sir , because I did not look for
them. "
"How did you know they were not
there ? "
"I don't . "
say they were not.
"That's funny : you say you found
arsenic but no fly wings. Yet yon are
not certain as to their not being there , "
said Gun. Wolford. Tlio witness in vain
tried to explain , the lawyer had twisted
the witness up , and so ho addressed the
jury. "Gentlemen , 1 demand the ac
quittal of my client. This chemist says
he found arsenic in tlio stomach of thu
deceased , but no liy wings. Yet every
body knows that when anyone swallows
one or two Hies thev turn to arsenic in
the stomach , yet "no ilyvings were
found : therefore I doubt if there was
any arsenic there cithor. " The man was
acquitted !
A Prize in tlio Ijottery
of life which is usually unappreciated un
til it is lost , perhaps never to return , is
health. What a priceless boon it is , and
how wo ought to cherish it , that lifo may
not be a worthless blank to us. Many of
the diseases that flesh is heir to und which
make life burdensome , such as consump
tion ( scrofulut of the lungs ) , und other
