of French females al whose head is n wo

Mont part of what Is known ir. police parlance
" ' Half-Acre " is sullicien
lance as llell'.s - ,
to indicate lhat this domicile is not i
seminary nor a hou o ol prayer. Sonn
days ago there came to this city a French
man named Kugenc Lcgrc , who seemet
to bo as alV.ible ami .seductive In his way :
as his family namesake of Undo Torn1 !
( Jabinwas billion and brutal. Ho formcc

for spending money , nil thcwino ant
liquor he could think" , and tlio best cigar ;
and cigarettes ho could .smoko. Prosper
ity was too much for him. He became ills
satisfied with his lot and struck for $10 ( M
a day. This was refused and n cool
ness sprang up between Kugene and Jim
nlc. The fecqnal shows , however , that i
was not tlio booty that troubled tlio for
mer but beauty , and beauty that be
longed to a fair French girl from Ohicagf
named Blanch Wilson , who lived acres ;
the way. While enjoying the hospitality
and largesses of his old love ho was i > ro
pitring to elope with the new love. l > as

named n comely female dressed in :
fashionable travelingsuit appeared at tin
depot and immediately attracted iittcn
lion by her nervous endeavors to sot
everything that was going on and at the
same time not bo seen herself. Shu
closely scrutinized all Ihe car windows
swept through the sitting room , talket :
with dillorenl cabbies anil handsoir
drivers and tried while doing bo tt

man with a foreign air and a guilty looV
attempted to do hkowi.se. lli.s right fee

heavy hand was laid upon his arm ant
very uncerimoniously no was pulled baden
on the platform. That hand belonged t <
n stout woman , who was all pcrspiratior
ami iro. She was a perfect tornado o
anger , anil when her tongue struck tin
koy-noto Kugcno Lcgro's cars became uc
qnainteil witti borne of the most poppen
expressions in tlio language. Then an
other and a younger woman came \i\ \
and stationed hernolf on the left of tin
prisoner of war. Together they marchoi
him to a cab standing in front of Boll' !
drug Store , busted him in and dircctei

IT SOUGHT HIS HEART
But tlio Bullet Only Let Light TlirotiRl
a Lemonade Cup ,
Yesterday afternoon , about 4 o'clock , i
revolver was fired at ono of Stcphenson'i
stable hands in Prod Wirth's saloon al
the City hotel , by one of the bartenders
It missed the man for whom the shot wa ;
intended , and a lemonade shaker bchim
, the bar , was badly demoralized.
There was quite a number of people ii
the saloon at the time , and nearly all o
them wore sitting at tables quietly drink
ing beer. At onu of the tables sat n mai
known as Itcdtlv among his associates a
Stophonson's. Ho and a couple of friend :
occupied a table immediately in front o
the bar. Ho was slightly under the inlltt
cnco of beer , and , when the waiter , f
young man , whoso first name
was Lewis , but whoso second is no
1 "known eyon lo his associates , went U
e-fathor the empty glasses which lay upon
the table , ho also tried lo nut tlie ompf
chair , which stood near " Ucddy" untlci
the table , "noddy's feet wore in the wa ]
and two or three failures to shove then
out of the way by the waiter , ruthoi
aroused his iro. It was unable to contro
his soolintrs , and , changing its method ;
said : "Well , pay mo for thcso threi
, beers yon owe mo , any way. "Uoddy1
denied that ho owed anything , and one
of the men who was silling with him
and who bail just ordered three inert
boors , hold a quarter of a dollar in hi :
lingers to pay lor the beer which was ox *
peeled. "Ueddy" and the waiter , however
over , continued lo argue , anil llnally tin
' 'former slapped the lattor's face , The
waiter who also acts as assistant bar ton
ker , then went behind the counter am
appealed to the bar man who said tha
all of ' 'Roddy's beers hud been pah
for. This incensed the waiter and caiuct
Jleddy to approach the bar , whuroupot
the waiter seized a revolver and fired
Luckily , in Ids excitement ho failed t <
rise the revolver hign enougii over tin
counter , and , as a consequence , the hullo
did the damage above spccilicd. Bofon
t 4 ho could lire a second shot the bar
tender , Ciesar Bromor , wrenched tin
revolver from the waiter's hand , am
" .Uoddy" made an attempt to roach tin
shooter over the counter. Ho was pro
vonUul. however , by Iho inlerferenco o
the bystanders. In an instant Iho salooi
was nllod with people , and "Ueddy" wa
congratulated on all sides oyor lib fortu
iiasooscapo.
The waiter then sot upon the bar
tender , Ciosar Bromor , accusing him o
giving beer to Stepliensou's men withou
getting pay for it. Bremcr doniei
, the charge , and later told Wirtl
that ho would work ami linger with sue !
n hot Head as the waiter , and according ! ,
retired fourth place. In the cstlmalioi
of spectators , who are friends of boll
parties , the bhooting was iinjnstiliublc
and only the merest accident prevontei
the bartender from being a murderer.

HAS GOT filK MULES.
A "Well-Known Citizen Arrested for
llccelvltij ; Stolen Property.
A warrant was sworn out in police
court yesterday against the well-known
liveryman , James Stcpensou , for conceal
ing stolen property.
The particulars of the case arc about
as follows : A few days ago a wealthy
farmer named John II. Noyes , residing
in Western Iowa , came to Omaha. Ho
was on the track of his hired man who
had run away one night , taking with him
a valuable span of mules , with a wagon ,
harness , etc. Ho came to Omaho and
sold them , it is claimed , to James Stephen-
son. Mr. Noycs put his case in the hands
of a lawyer. Replovian proceedings were
commenced to get possession of the
mules , but when Mr. Stcphcnson was approached
preached ho simply denied having the
mules. He admitted , however , that he had
had them at one. time. Criminal pro
ceedings have accoodingly been com
menced against him in the police court
on a charge of receiving stolen property.
Last evening Mr. Stephcnson , hearing
that there was a warrant out for his
arrest , appeared before Ju < l < ro Stonbcrg ,
and , giving bail in the sum of $500 for
his appearance when wanted , he wits
released.
Stephenson jokingly remarked that ho
had the mules , but couldn't have then !
convicted. They are now on his ranch In
Colorado. Ho paid the thief $300 for
them. Noycs claims that they arc v val
uable team of mules worth $500.

ant business ,
Smashed by n Dirt I'lotv.

THE AMERICAN ELK.
Interesting Skciuli ol * n Graceful nntl
Fast nisapiiearln jViilin.il.
I have at Intervals during the last ten
years had ample opportunity for study
ing the American elk or wapiti door , says
a writer in the Christian Advocate. I
have seen thorn in great numbers in the
Kooky mountains , where , in 1871 , 1 cap
tured one that dressed 800 pounds , the
largest elk of which I have been any au
thentic account. I selected him irom u
band of si.xty-thrco feeding on the mountainside
tain-side near Long's peak. This species
of the deer family is larger than all
others excepting the moose , and is taller
than the average horse. His antlers
are solid , very long , and have
numerous prongs. I Iiavo stootl on
the head of an oik after he was
shot , of course nntl found the tips of
the antlers extending over my head. In
color he is a yellow-brown , with white
buttocks. His head is finely formed , and ,
altogether , this is a graceful and nmgnili-
conl beast of Iho forest. His track in
the snow is about tire si/.e of that of a 2-
yoar-old hoifor. His home was formerly
in every part of the United Stales , ex
cepting , perhaps , the Carolmas and
Florida , lln prefers the woodlands or
tlio mountains , and only inhabits the
prairies from force of circumstances.
The last elk in Illinois was seen near tlio
present city of Peoria about fifty years
a < ro. A band was seen and one of lliom
shot two years ago within a few miles of
where 1 now write Lyiln cbunty , Iowa.
They arc at this time quite numerous on
tlio Yellowstone river , Montana , and in
parts of Washington territory and Idaiio.
The flesh of the elk is line ilavoretl , but.
di tiers from all oilier venison. It is said
to bo more nutritions than any other
known meat. From experience I know
a hungry hunter is satisfied with about
half the amount which would bo required
of beef or bacon. The bucks arc at cer
tain seasons vicious und dangerous. The
mother also lighls desperately in defense
of her young. Judge J. C. Caton , late
of Ottawa , 111. , had a few years ago qnito
a band ot elk in a wood lot inclosed by a
high fence , and placard posters warning
persons of the danger within. Three
men passing on foot thought they would
show thai they could go through that Jot
ami that they were not afraid of anyone. s
elk. When about half way across the
enclosure they were discovered
ami attacked , lirst by the leader ,
an old buck , and then by other
members of the company. A desperate
struggle ensued , the men lighting for
life , and the elk in a porfrct rago. The
men wore literally stripped of every shred
of clothing by the horns anil sharp hoofs
of the infuriated beasts. One man. by
dodging among the trees managed to es
cape over the fence ; another climbed a
tree , ami the other was killed. The man
escaped over the fence g.ivo the alarm ,
when a party of Judge Galon's workmen
went into the lot und fought the elk
hand to hand with pitchforks and axes.
The batllo was fierce and lerriblo. At
length the men , by striking the elk with
Ihu pitchforks behind the fore .shoulders ,
forced thorn to give way slowly and sul
lenly , when the lifeless man was carried
nut.
nut.Tho fawns are the cutest and most _ de
ceptive litllo oreaturo.s imaginable.
While very young they are left by the
mother in supposed security hidden
away in the gnus and loaves , anil jt isas-
loninliing how perfectly they are in this
way concealed. In this condition the lit-
lie fellow allbcts death boiler than any
Eirctitiiro I know of except the opossum.
In fact , you would think him quite dead
only ho forgets to shut his eyes. Ho lies
without a motion , and if you pick him up
he is limp as a stocking , the head and
legs hang down without a kinglo muscle
being moved , but Ihe big bright eyes are
fairly sparkling all the timo. If you lay
him down , however , and step a few
paces away he is up ami off like an arrow ,
calling at every jump with a desporalo
squeal for his mother. It is then best to
Iiavo in your hands a trusty rlllo or bo
near a tree ,
When hard pressed by a horseman or
dogs in their native haunts the elk ut-
tars a shrill scream resembling more the
whistling of a steam tlinwhor than any
thing else , ( icnurally they are easily
frightened in a wild .state , and when one
Lakes alarm he instantly communicates
it to tlio others , when they all dash away
an a long ( rot. or rack , carrying with ox-
inisilo grace their great antlers high in
the air.

Howe , with his hair parted in the middle
ami his prospects for congress ili.ssolviug
and disappearing every day , has set his
editorial pimps upon mo because I have
been compiling apnitof his shameful
record , reeking with rottenness ami seelh-
ing with foul blotches of political corrup
tion. Howe finds a letter that I wrote ,
about a year ago , asking Howe , not as a
ono-hoi'Mi politician of Nemaha county
but as u member of the national commit
tee , into which position he forced himself ,
against the solemn protest of fifty good
republicans ol Nebraska , lo make a slalo-
nienl regarding m. > republicanism. Par
ties hail questioned it. Al the same time
1 wrote lo Weaver , N an Wyck , Dawcs ,
Mercer anil many others with the same
request. They all responded. I printed
all the letters , except the one from
Church Howe the o'ie over which ho is
now making Mich a great fuss at railroad
ulatloiis , in railroad coaches and through
( he columns of his subsidised patent-
gutted country dreadfuls and Chili.
Ueie's journal. 1 did not print Howe's
loiter. 1 knew that his record as a polit
ical tumbler was too widely known. Hi *
work in trying to steal Oregon for Tilden
gave him an uncnvhhlo reputation as a
I'ildcn democrat. Because lie insinuated
hlmsell into tlienatioiial committee inndo
no ill He re nee. Atr > way , I want the pa
pers and llowu to know that his letter
was never published. Mr. Howe should
remember that he is running for con-
gress. I am not ; in fact , am not before
the people. It happens in my way ,
working for the best paper in the state ,
to write some truths about Howe that
make him squirm. From what I can
learn regarding the man , and what can
easily bo learned , 1 imagine thai he can
not well all'ord lo urge lights on iudi- ,
vldnnls. If 1 had published Howe's letter - '
tor il would have been ilill'erenl. Th

published it. Be easy , Mr. Howe , and do
