' THE OMAHA DAILY BEEj- TUESDAY , SEPTEMBER 14 , 1880. THE STATE FAIR'S FIRST DAY , It Opens With a Boom , Twelve Thousand People in Attendance , OA4N INTERRUPTS THE RACES' CniullclAtonofi tlio Kle-ld nntl nt Work Lincoln' ) * Hull Cltili Wins a Grcnt Game Capital CUy Xcivt. IFTJOM Tiir. urn's i.ixcot.x IIUHEAU.I 1'ho llrst lay of the state fair proper opened tip brightly with about twelve tlfouS.iml pcoplo on tlio groan ds. A large majority of exhibitors who occupy 'spiioolu thu art , agricultural and liorti- cultural halls \voru busy completing their exhibits. While there arc n Inrgu iiiiin- bor of people who of course are n HUlc late with their atock and goods , yet every thing proceeds In nn easy anil regular manner , which is largely duo to the olllcicnt rnnnngcinont. President liar- kcr has for his assistants , H. 11. Grecr and .J. Jensen , while the alwHys ready and popular seere- tary , ex-Governor Kurnn.H , who knows more about fairs than any other man west of the .Mississippi river , is assisted by Frank \Yllson , first assistant ; John Gillespio , MlsM Kmnm Uillespic , ( t. F. Warren , George Furnas and George Dickman , who are at all tinius ready to assist the inquirer us to what ho should do to properly present his wares to the thousands who arc wending their way to the stiito fair. Kd. Mclntyre , chairman of the board of managers , with his able corps of assist ants , kept busy hurrying the : ui\ioiis to their proper places , while Austin Humphrey , general superintendent of the grounds , divides himself up among several ; WMUtants , thus keeping the grounds ami people in the best ot con dition and humor. All trains arc now run into the grounds , landing on broad platforms. An abundance of good water is placed in convenient places so that none need go thirsty. The grounds and tnack are in the best of condition and all who may comu will find good and reasonable enable accommodations. Though the art hall has been added , the room still seems to bo closely packed by exhibitors from all over the country. Among tlin most attractive is an exhipit by the Chicntro Kindergarten association , which is probably the best explanation of the subject ever given in this cottn- try. try.Kxi of counties will prove to be one of the mo.-tt important features of the great fair. Already eighteen from this atato and Weld county , Colorado , are on the ground. Valley , Custer , Cheyenne and Keith each have a large and credit able showing of grain , grasses and vege tables. Jell'ortjon , Kearney. Polk , Hitch cock , LaneasteiyUouglas , llayos , Dundy , Adams , Cuss , Lincoln , Hamilton , York a i ill Kurnas counties have a very com plete allowing of their farm products , bo- Hides many of them a line exhibit of ua- tivo wood in addition to their fruit and tame gras-ios. The ladies from various parts of the state seem to have taken much interest in the fair , judging from the extensive display of caiHied goodn. preserves and jellies , in addition to their display of needle and fancy work in thu art null. They are fairly represented on the of ficial list by IUrs. Langwortliy , of Seward - ard , superintendent of line arts , and JUiss Kiln Cooper , of Plattsniouth , textile fabrics. The dairymen of the state arc showing a display of their products that would make the residents of Orange county , N. Y. , green with envy. Several of the creameries have a complete display show ing the butter in its granulated form , be sides a liberal supply ot print and tub butter. Among the more prominent ox IiibitA are those of Sutton , Gibbon , Ere- mont nnd Ucnnet. besides a number of private parties. Alany of the private en tries of butter have been packed in crocks or jars , or brought in oakcs packed in common market baskets. . Par ties attending the fair who are interested in the dairymen's work would do well to call on the dairy superintendent , S. C. Hassctt , nnd procure the proceedings ol the Dairymen's association , held at Fremont - mont last year. Martin Shear of Steele City , Jefferson county , is the only party who has yet made any entries in the cheese lino. The vegetable display is very largo in every particular by counties and individ uals , and to attempt to mention their si/o would make our readers inccedulous , and as seeing is believing under nearly all circuniiitances , so it must bo in this case , as photographs and descriptions would be but shadows compared to the reality. Mr. Kvans , of Omaha , makes a gcand display of Hold , farm and garden seeds , the larger portion of them being ttio produces of our own state. Mr. Honk , of thu Greenwood seed farm , also shows a largo variety of seeds in thoii natural condition upon the stalk and in the .pod. lie is the propogator of sovora : jiqw varieties of corn , potatoes and pc'us. The largest exhibition of fruits ever given in the state is now on thu table in Horticultural hall , apples being the chiel display. Among the leading exhibitors are Mr. Hlotlgutt with fifty-one varieties Mr. Masters , of Nebraska City , witli forty-two varieties : Mr. Abernathy , ol Lancaster , thirteen varieties ; 13. Denver , Hichiirdson , thirty-nine varieties ; E. F. Stephens , Saline , seventy varieties. lie also has tv iino exhibit of choice nursery stock , Including fruits , forest and evergreen. When it is remembcrci that he 1ms 500 nercs in nursery , with 200 nores ready for sale , one can imagine that his display would bo rather on the grand order. Among the manufacturing interests found ready at work was the Lincoh pottery of 0. V. Katon , whcero ho was grinding the mud and moulding out the favorite llttlo brown jug. In the itoultiv and put line LotK. Jones & Son , of Smvard , have n largo nnd very . creditable display , from the pigeon to the proud pea fowl. All stock ami horse departments are full with line stock from the green moun tain states to the Gulf of Mexico. Three hundred additional stalls were built this season , and yet there are calls for moro room. Seventy-live car loads of stock and freight were hauled onto the grounds yesterday morning , forty of these were from the Omaha fair , and all hands were busy putting things in shape so that b\ thn lime our realtors uro perusing this letter the state fair will be in full blast. The sjiced department is in good con dition with 18l ) entries of speed horses The close of entries in the : ' . ' , " ) race have been postponed until U o'clock p. m. W-opnesday , the Ifith inst. The trot wil take place ( . Thursday , the 10th , thus giving the sporting men of this and ad joining states a favorable opportunity to reach hero before the close of entries it their class.

THE WOULD OF POLITICS will bo fully represented at the state cap ital durinjr this fair week , and much dis cussion will bo had over the coining re publican state convention. Congressman Weaver amf H. T. Clarke arc already in the city , and J. H. Dinsmoro is busy at the fair grounds. Mr. Clarke was soon by the HKK representative but was not in terviewed , for his aversion to such mat ters is well known. Ho is. however , iu a confident mood as to results , and is .hero for the fair and all of it. A gentleman fresh from the Holds of Cass county , where thn primaries were hold Saturday , prophesisos a legislative delegation favor able to Senator Van Wyck as the out come from their convention this week , and reports" that TelFt will have the con gressional .delegates anil Chapman the delegates to the judicial convention for district judge. As to governor , the prophecy was that the delegation was apt to bo divided between Clarke , of Omalta , and Tliayoi1. This week the Lancaster county rcpub Jican primaries will he belli , and a fever ish feeling is already manifesting itself among the candidates. That the prim aries will bo hotly contested is an assured fact in advance , and It is anybody's light as viewed at the present time. The latest active candidate in the licld is Fire Warden Nowbury , in the First ward , and who has had legislative experience here tofore in his day from one of the Now York city assembly districts. Caucuses are now being arranged. 8TAT13 IIOUSK ITEMS.

I.oyers of a good game of ball saw the prettiest of the season at Durfoo's Park yesterday between the Lincolns and the St. Joseph's. Lincoln presented as its battery Nelson and Schneider , and St. Joe's battery was King and Connors game in a score of 3 to 1. At ono time the prospects were very promising for a ten or eleven inning contest , the St. Joo's having a man on third and only ono man out. The faultless work of Nel son in the box , however , shut them out .and held down the score. Alexander , the manager of the St , Joe club , umpired , m n most satisfactory manner. Follow ing is the score by innings : Liiiroln , .l 0 3 tit. Joe , , .1 0000000 0 l The attendance was only about 800 nothing what it should bo and what the games deserve. Games the next four days called at 10 a. m. TIIK FIU3T 6UCKEK of fair week was taken in on the old ox- press pncknge racket at the depot yester day. He had coiuo iu on ono of the trains to sco the fdir and had occupied a seat from a short distance out witli a real honest young innn , right from the coun try , liko.lfnmi'lf. When the depot was reached Ida friend left him for a moment , returning in a few minutes with the ancient tale of not beinc able to get an express package , which contained goods that ho wanted to exhibit. 'Voulcl his new-found friend lend him $10 until he could get a dratt cashed up town ? Of course ho would and did. The sucker passed the next thrco hours walking the streets to see if he could find the borrower , ami he was not long In realizing that he was the victim of a wi'll-ktwjivn and long-adver- tisea job. Ho felt too badly fooled to complain to the police and took the Irani for home al'ler more cash upon which to visit Lincoln. TIII : T. r. A'S.

Lanius , Kcnnard , Daniels & company , St. Joe. The businessof the mooting was largely transacted by the board of directors , all of which was of a routine character. One traveling man was formally expelled for bad conduct , which consisted in borrow ing money of a Plum Creek merchant , in amount $10 , and telling the lender that the T , P. A. would stand good lor it. As the association was not in that kind of business , and it appearing to a majority of tho.sq present that the brother had further disgraced himself by being jailed at McCook for like crooked work , the ex pulsion was ratified without a dissenting voice. The question of selecting an official organ was under consideration , and finally a motion to make the Omaha lir.i : and Lincoln Journal such papers carried , and they were so declared. It was noticed afterward that there were some vigorous remarks made by some of the members over naming the Lincoln paper , and one of. the protestants stated that no paper had treated the traveling men with as much disrespect ns the State Journal. "Hie announcement was made that the Pacific Hotel company would give rates of two dollars a day to all T. P. A. men , and the announcement was received with marks of satisfaction. The question of suppressing a saloon at Valley station that had assumed the association letters , T. P ; A. , as a sign for itself , w-as discussed and steps taken to abate the nuisance. After the regular association adjourned , the Lincoln resi dent traveling men present mot and organi/.ed what will bo known as post A , of the association. 'I'lio olliccrs elect of this association arc , L. Heiskol , presi dent ; Sam D. Lelaud , vieo president , ( r. A. Clark , secretary , and C. L. McDon ald , treasurer , with U. M. Simons , H Hay- ford and S. M. St. Johns , directors. An indignation meeting was held on Saturday evening at Masonic Temple hall over the acts of the council in allow ing saloons to remain open over hours daring fair week. A majority of the audience were ladies and the speechmakers - makers of the evening wore A. J. Saw yer , O. P. Mason , Judge Skinner , Mrs. Dr. King and others , and a long list of resolutions were drawn up nnd lired at the city council. These resolutions are of an invective nature somewhat , but a member of the city government , when asked what ho thought of the meeting , re plied with just about as much vigor him self. TOLIPE COUNT I'ltOCEEDlN'qS. Yesterday marked a busy day in police court as a sort of harbinger of what would follow during the present week. Two parties who were arrested in a row in which women , wino and pugilists all played a part were arraigned-for disor derly conduct , plead innocence and had their cases continued until some twenty dollars' worth of witnesses could bo called to help them out in an expense ac count. Thirteen offenders for drunkenness and drunk and disorderly were arraigned in court yesterday morning as the result of Sunday's round-up by the police. They w.orc all lined the usual amount. John O'Brien , a colnmon vagrant and beggar , was arraigned and proven to bo working the streets for money. Ten dollars and costs. Olaf Hoycrdahl was the name of n party who entered C , F. Damrow's tailor shop on Saturday night by the buck way nnuinsido threatened to kill Damrovv , slashed a cout up with a knife , and pro ceeded to create a first-class row. When the ollicers arrested him ho had got to his hume and was there engaged in the pastime of abusing his wife. He was taken under two charges of being drunk and disorderly and of threatening the lifo of Damrow in a men acing manner. The court fined him $10 and costs. John Kelly was brought into court to answer to the charge of breaking into the residence of Norris Humphrey and stealing jewelry , two pocket-books and other minor articles. Ho was seen to leave the house , and Mr. Humphrey gave cbaso , captured him , and turned him over to the police. In Ids hearing Kelly waived examination , and was bound over to the coining term of the district court. The chap showed that ho was no stranger in court , and he seemed to enjoy the fact that ho had not committed a penitentiary offense , Two thieves or burglars entered a house three miles out of the city and ab stracted therefrom some ono hundred dollars worth of jewelry and other valua bles , The parties robbed came to town und the police were p t on the track , Yesterday morning they received word that the thieves had been arrested in that place , and an ollicor of the staff journeyed thither , to bring them buck to this city for a hearing. W. H. Carrel was the name of a party locked up by the oflicers. Ho is a pro fessional train worker , and letters on his person showed the business in which he was engaged , and ho had a letter written and iinmailed calliiig upon a chum to coiuo on nt once to Lincoln without fail and not stop on the way , that Lincoln nnd Hastings wuro good towns to work. After ho was locked in jail ho began try- in < r to pick the lock to his cell , and suc ceeded so well that ha had the lock so mixed up that the otlicers could not open the door. Consequently , as ho had sort of sentenced himself , ho was not tried yesterday. To show that ho was ono ol several line workers , hoIiad not been in jail but a short time before hu had pals iirouud Inqutftn after him and for his release. ' ' 1' TrtW.V TALK. The county < * purt has summoned the comiuis.sionurs < to appraise damages on the Northwestern line To Lincoln to ap pear and rc'ilort for duty on Monday next lo asso.is dsfnagcs on certain rig'its of wav wanted by' the company and not reported nt the former time that appraise ments were made. Thirty-four deputy sherills were sworn in nt the fair grounds yesterday to act under the chief 'marshal at llii1 grounds. 1'ho thirty-four deputies will be distrib uted over tho'ground.saud ' tin * crooks who are always prcacnl in force will have that many olllciuls at lonM to contend with in plying their vocation. Sheriff Hamilton , of York , ono of the best sherills in thu state , has charge of tho.-e otlicinK Mr. Loouiis , of this city , learned by telegraph yesterday that lii.s brother , in Indiana , had boon gored by a mad bull , resulting in Ills death. Mr. L. , in re sponse to the telegram , departed at 8 p. m. for that place to attend the funeral nnd render "whatever assistance he could to the family bereft. Lnnt/.er , the old German who shot at people near 4iis homo in this city , and whom I lie ollieers have been watching for , has been caught at Crete , and yes terday Deputy Sheriff Al Beach departed for that place to bring him IP. Thegravo suspicion still exists that Lnut/.tT has murdered his wife sometime within the last ten days , nnd it is lo be hoped that the mystery surrounding her .sudden dis appearance will be proved to the bottom , anil if possible unraveled. Nothing has been done ns yet , and if it is true that the old man stated that she was at. the bottom of Salt crook' the matter deserves a thorough investigation .it onco. Cer tain it is. the old lady suddenly disap peared from ainouir the neighbors over a week ago , an'd her whereabouts are un known. Scvoranmportant real estate transfers were made yesterday in lots iu Harden- burg's addition , and they are in evidence that the real estate market is trying to do .something and awaken business. Tliero are two around-thc-world trav elers stopping at the Windsor for u few days to sec Nebraska's capital city and the stale exhibit at the fair ground * . The gentlemen are William G . nnd Wal.tcr C. Watt , of Sidney , New South Wales' . The old Trade Palace store room on Tenth street is being utilized the present week by four traveling men , who haye an immense display spread there ami who will remain through fair week with an exhibit of their own , and they want to see the people , always having a welcome in waiting for the ladies , if they desire to call and see their display. The sample displays are made byr. \ . H. Hall , of the Shapleigh & Can troll Hardware com pany , of St , Louis ; C. VV. Chambers , of Henry Kiuc & Co. , Chicago ; Mr. Hoi- pliroy ; of Collins , Gordon & Kay , Omaha , and John Hiley , of Bradley & Metcalf , Chicajjo. The fishing party who were out at Crete report a catch ot about ono hundred when the water was drawn off the mill part. They woiUii have caught more , but they < run out of bait. Katie Putnam and her company will en tertain fair"visitors the coming four nights at Fufike's opera house , and the Simon's Comedy 'company will hold the boards at the > People's for the week with Blind Boone , nnd other attractions at other placesi < The 'banks ; will close their places of business every afternoon during the week , and tlijO county offices will bo closed in the aftehiopfis of Wednesday and Thursday , aud probably Friday , all to help swell the attendance at the fair. Thu police am\ounco \ the arrival of nu merous pickpockets who have worked the town ll&frtfoforo and who arc watched. Itf'wbiild bo n pious idea for passeiigord to rtv6id a jam nt 'car doors , and novor'forgot/to keep their hands on their pocket books. Yesterday's arrests up to noon num bered the usual assortment of drunks who have commenced the fair celebra tion endy. They were quartered with thirty unfortunates who have already forl'oile'd their chances of seeing the show. NKIlUAJiKANS IN TOWN. Amonc the Nebraskans registered at hotels yesterday were E. E.

THE GREAT SEPOY MUTINY An Old Story of Massacre and Carnage Retold , Experiences of a I'lttslHipg Sinn In In- din In 1H 7 mill 1 5N The Horrible rible Vlnctnori's of Kngllsh nml AVotnoit unit the Tcrrlhlo UrtHlmtloii. IMtwburg ( . "ommcrclal-Gaiotlo : "I shudder yet when 1 think about it , " wore the woids which prefaced the remark able story related to a uommoirial- Ga/.etto reporter yesterday by Mr. William Bentli-y ot No 010 DU-IUMIIP - way. This gentleman is om > of the few surviving Kuronean ollicors who wit nessed the blooil-curdl'ng ' tor : ors of the Sepoy mutiny in India in I8" > 7 and 18.V * . " 1 was a Lieutenant , attached to tin * corps of engineers in the Bengal army , " ho continued. "Wo wore stationed at Mcerut. It was the lOtli of May , 18.TT , that the uprising of the Sppoys occurred. Tliut was Sunday evening , i saddled my horse to go and sou : \ friend who was an olileor of one of , the native regiments of the infantry. The Sepoys in this regiment belonged to the disaffected troops , but were not suspected. Ofcomsoi had no suspicion. 1 litid just arrived nt my friend's bungalo when the natives broke open the bells of arms and began thu slaughter of olliccrs , who had just ar rived from their < | iiarters. "Each was killed on sight. One whom I spoke with a few minutes before was Colon'el Fining , the brother of the then lord mayor of London. My friend told mo to look sharp and save my life. 1 nt once galloped oil' . The natives , however , saw me and gave chase , but I escaped with oi'ly a bullet in my log. 1 took ref uge with the ollicers offjthe Sixth Oaj-bi- neor regiment , and when they turned out on parade shortly afterwards 1 was re- ouested to stay in their lines. L staid tliero all night. Tlio massacre of the ollieers and their ladies continued throughout the night , and the scenes among the killed and wounded were frightful beyond description. For in stance , on the stage of the theatre at Meorut 1 counted thirty-six corpses. The following morning t returned to my reg ular quarters. All the dead were brought on artillery wagons. At this time E ] tlio Bengal army consisted of 23,0118 Euro peans and 118,0(53 ( natives. "These were nothing in comparison with the scenes at Cawnpoor nwfiil scenes , which at this long distance of time Iain quite unable to wholly banish from my mind when it reverts to .that country and time. Jt was hero that , by orders"'of ManaSaliib , Brigadier General Wheeler and his brave soldiers were slaughtered in tranches and tired upon by masked batteries. The Nairn put to deatlt all the women found in the town after cutting their feej oil and subjecting them to oilier outrages. "Mips Wheeler , the lovely daughter of the general , rather than submit to tiio gross violence , leaped into a deep well. The Nana nt once seized upon this horrible rible idea and as fast as the European ladies were massacred their bodies were flung into Ibis well. At the edge of this famous 'Well of Cawnpoor , ' 1 stood within a week after it was tilled with its human contents. The stench arising from it was something that is sickoniug oyon to think of now. Over that site now rises one of the most macnilieent pieces iof architecture to tie seen in all India. It is a fine octagon marble building around the well , without a roof , and Inclosing an elaborate tomb. It is near thn theatre and close to the bank of the llncst canal in the worltj , the Gances. Memorable gardens have also been laid out around the scene of the massacre and a boauti- tul church erected. 'G'hildron's brains wore dashed out against the walls ot buildings. When I reached Gawnpoor the wells were guard ed and railed in. On the walls of dwell ings wo saw signs of fearful slaughter. Tliero weru tatters ot clothing , chimps of hair clotted thick with blood , while the 'slaughter-houso * was smeared with blood and flesh. Thirty pairs of feet were found in one place. The two days of the massacre , out of 000 Europeans , at least two-thirds were butchered , and in Sep tember 200 more were massacred. "In the fearful retrjbntion which fol lowed I saw thu mutineers strapped to the mouths of cannon and blown to pieces ; others were hanged anywhere ; scores of them were beheaded , and others shot down with vollevs of musketry. "I have seen the Nana , too , l > eforo the mutiny ho was one of the best men at our moss ; after the rebellion he escaped and we had several chases after bun. It was thought that ho was hidden in the Nepaul hills , and I have good reason to believe that ho died in the jungle. "At the siege and capture of Delhi I was present and formed one of the party to blow open the Cashmere gate , when Lieutenant Howe , Sergeant Carmiehael and two others wore killed. I assisted to carry out of the ditch , where ho fell mor tally wounded , the bravo and good John Nicholson under a lioavv fire from the walls and bastions of the city. "At the capture of Lnckntny 1 was em ployed on the engineer's stafl' , anil with Lieiits. Donald , MeNeill and Vincent Eyre of the artillery I discovered and rescued two of our ladies from the custody of one of the rebels , who had them closely confined in a very small room. In the Hohilcnnd campaign and battle and oaptnro of Bareilly , where wo fought under Clyde from 5 a. m. till sun set , wo lost more bravo men by sun strokes than by disunities. After the ac tion the men bivouacked on the licld and sank exhausted. Many were found to have fallen asleep In the very act of rais ing the food provided for them to their mouths. Scores and hundreds were found dead in the morning.
