Yesterday morning , Iko OHer , ns ho gave his name , was brought before Squire Frainev. sitting as judge. IIo was charged with being drunk , and Ihu ollleer who arrested him said he was so drunk that he could not tell what his mime was. ku did not talk much , and what ho did say was in very poor English. Ho was axed $7.50. 3'1'ini Kelley was arraigned for being a suspicions character. Ho plead not guilty , and said ho ought to know about .hat as well as anybody. Ho was not a Micpicious character. Ho was nut SUH- licious of anybody , and never had bt'iMi ; IIH character was to bo too confiding , if inything. His honor explained that the nature of the charge was evidently mis- iimlcr&tood. That the police suspected dm of being a bad man. He s.iid he could not plead lo I hut charge , thu police man would have to plead to thai. Ho did not know it was any crime to ho sus pected by a policeman. Ho was evidently jolng to make a few general remaks on the subject of police- olliccrs , but ho was warned by iho uyo and voice of1 the court. Ho then stated that he had only just reached the city , aud had not been hero long enough to oven lind a boarding place. He was discharged , but warned not to do so again. Charks Doyle , his partner , was charged in addition with beingavacranl , and with carrying concealed wcanpns. Ho said ho supposed a man had a right lo carry a revolver , if ho was traveling around. The court diilbred with him , and lined him $5 for the. dill'ero.nco. Andy Davy was charged with having been drunk and fighting. The charge WAS easily proved , and ho was fined foi it. MJko Kelley and E. U. Daggart , who were arrested Thursday for tapping MuNulty's till , were brought tip from the county jail lor trial. They protested their innocence , and were going to sub- pa-mi a force of men from Wiekliam's brick yard to testily. IJut McNulty and the men finally setlled it by the men > aying the costs and refunding to Me- S'ulty the amount he claimed to have lost , about si.\ dollars.i i . "Eveniwl and Knlnlla. " As a general rule literature is ono of the last products of a-new country ; until the wilderness and the prairie are subju gated , the people have little time to de vote lo sustained original composition such as is necessary to produce history or novels. Iowa has been no exception in this rcsucct among oilier western slales ; but there have been rece.ntly cer tain indications which seem to point'to the beginning of a new era. A story en titled "Evorard and Eulalia" has been written by Mr. Edward Wright , of this city , which is in all tlio essentials of a novel far ahead of any other story writ- tea and published in this state. While this is not an Iowa novel in the sense of dealing with local scones , yet its nut lor is and lor several years has been an Iowa boy , whose homo is noiv in Council lilull's , and the work.is largely inllucnccd by his experiences hero. The story was first published as a serial by the Herald , of this ciiy , but now that it has boon issued by tlio same ofiico in a neatly bound volume , it will have many readers. It is heartily commended to the story reading public , and that em braces nearly every ono who can read at all , with the assurance that it will find an absorbing plot and a novel and original ono as well , which is more rare , well worked out. After following the varied fortunes of Eulalia and her sister , Lolia , May , the reader is gratified to find the story ends Iho BIE : will not tell how it does end you can learn that feu yourself by purchasing n copy from Inislmcll or CrockwellT As but a very limited number of copies were printed , those will bo fortunate who secure n copy at once , The binding was done by Morehouse & Co. , of this city , and it is a credit to any establishment. Soldiers' PcmsloiiH. Those who take the trouble to look over the figures given in the BEE of yes tcrday showing thu amount of money paid to the old soldiois in Iowa and Nebraska each month for pensions , will GOO that it is not the most populous count ies by any means'that receive the largest sums. The county of Dubuque only receives coives each month $1,000.97' , Scott county receives only $1,850.50 ; while Wappollo county , with a population only about half as largo as that of cither of the first named , receives C4.15J.75. Leo county receives tlio largest amount paid to any county in the state , f 1,807.08. Douglas county , Nob. , which includes the city ot Omaha , with a population two and a half times larger than that of Wan- pcllo county in this state , receives only $2.883.75. These figures prove conclusively the material which composed the grandest army the world over saw. It proves that it was not recruited from the scum of the populous cities , us is sometimes charged by tlioso who would detract from its glory , but from the homos and firesides of tlio American people , and that when thu cruel , bitter task was accomplished , buck to these homes and firesides returned thu bravo men who had periled life in the defense of the Hag. The same figures also show Hint the average amount paid to pensioners is less than $10 a month per man. Not a voy largo sum surely , when it is taken Into consideration that very many are almost totally incapable of self-support. Tlio Imtust. Mis. F. II. Stewart , No. 841 , Broadway , ( successor lo Parisian Mllinory Co , ) , has just received a now stock of fall goods , comprising all the latest novelties and most desirable styles in millinery. With Miss Weitz , of Chicago , and Mrs. hauler wassor , us assistants , wo have overj' US' surnnra that for tusto , elegance and style , wo shall merit the continued cus tom and confidence of the public. A Card for tlio Public. David Bradley & Co , , of this city , have mailed to the BEE ofiico a lithographed card showing a view of the locality In Chicago made famous by the throwing ol bombs into the ran Us of the police. The card also contains the portraits of the conspirators who were convicted ol mur der for their participation in the terrible crime. The Will Case. The long contested case of the relatives of Jacob Smith against James & Haver- stock , legatees , has been decided by Judge Connor in favor of James & Ha vcrstock. The old man willed to James & liaverstock all his property , real am personal , amounting in all to about S7OCO , in consideration of their caring for him ana supplying all his needs while 10 lived. A sister , two hnlf-brothors and R half-sister contested the will , on the : round of Insanity. The judge decided hat Smith was sane , and that ho had a right lo leave his property to whom ho vonlil. That ho had not left any to his natural heirs because ho thought they had icglcctcd and ill-treated him. James & lavcrstock naturally feel clalcd. Flick- ngor Bros. , their attorneys , : ire also well ) lea. cd , as Ihn light has been a long and veil fought one. It will now bo appealed.

IN THE FAR NORTH. Scenes Around llammorfost , the Xor- Uicrnmo.sJ Town In thuvorltl. . Norway Letter ; u St. Louis Globe Dem ocrat : It was still a gray and cheerless morning a few hours later hen wo came into llaninierfest llarbor , and saw this "northernmost town in the world , " stretching a line of bare gray and white houses along the shore , at the foot of desolate gray hills of broken rock , where not a spear of grass nourished. Every thing about liainmerfcst is superlative , and near this "northernmost town in the world" are the ' 'northernmost birch woods in the world. " Tno church , the postollice. the hotel , and the'chrio shops all have the same antique fame , aud there is also a telegraph ollicc.t Dare aud for bidding as the hills are around llaminer- fcst , the turf roofs of maiiy of thu houses are grown over with tall grasses , with which grow daisies and blue bolls and buttercups. The houtcH that line one sHe of the street facing the in evitable yellow warehouses are models of cleanliness. without and within , and the urcienci of blooming geraniums , Iall calh& , anil other house plants tell that the northernmost citizens in world have the same tastes and traits as other people. In thu church at the head of the street a collin. was lying uifder : i wealth of llowcrs that made the place fragrant. Women are busy decorating the bare interior of the church with wreaths of evergreens ami strms of black drapery , and to show their kindliness and interest to the visitors they made motions to them and the men began to take oil' the cover of the collin to show them the dead man within. The hotel Woropolen stands on a little open square in which a fountain scudsnp an icy jot basin , ami in the raw air of a cloudy morning in latitude 70 degrees , 41 minutes north , the music of that drip ping fountain made one's teeth chatter unit his blood run cold. Dreary as Ham- mcrfesC seems on a summer morning without sunshine to enliven its bare out lines , one Rhudders to think of it closed in Iho endless night of winter. All the shops had a small department of curios attached where Laplanders' caps , dolls , sledges and cradles , knives with walrus- pelts were heaped up on counters and in windows. After the ilshing there Yas the bom bardment of the Svaerholtklubhcn , or "bird-rock , " to help wliilo away the after noon in order that wo misrlit reach the north cane in time fora midnight ascent. Wo had been fishing in the Magro sound , which separates the island from which the north capo projects from the main land of Kuropo , and the Svaerholt lay at the eastern entrance away beyond that linal point. As we Mtmmod toward the Svacrholt.it appeared only n very abrupt , precipitous clilV rising Homo ono thou sand two hundred fc.ct straight 4tip from the water , but when wo drew nearer and the ship was fairly under it the whole clill' seemed to be dotted with points in mo tion. Ono bang from the cannon sent thousands of sea gulls whirling franti cally in the air. and they swept along Ihc face of the clill' in clouds. Their piping fairly drowned any echoes after the lirst crash of the cannon-shot , and succeeding shots kept the birds whirling and crying in the air. While the big birds were sweeping about on the wing , the face of the clill' was all a llutter with little birds unable lo lake Highland many a lledgling tries its wings for the lirst time on these semi-weekly bombardments troin the tourist steamers in midsummer. The ladders of the egg-hunters could bo seen here and there on Iho face of thu clill' , and around Iho corner of the clill'lived the lundliandler , who derives a good In come from the sale of gull's eggs. As wo climbed upward our steamer dwindled and Boomedto , lin directly un der us , alloat on waler so still and green ns lo see.11 more like glass Within 100 feet of the top of the dill'wo , went into the cloud , and when wo reached the bare , wind'swopt plait } at the summit we could not sco twenty feet away. Wo walked on for a mile over a luvel ex panse of stony ground covpred with moss and reindeer lichens , , follp\ying a path marked out by stakes andjwircs. At last a chasm opened bof9ro .us ; wo looked clown a great crevlco set with ragged needles of rock and then wont on to a mountain of a single shaft of granite that marks the brow and furthest point of the North cape and commemorates the visit of King Oscar II , the 'Jd of , July , 18711. It was 11 : ! iO when wo reached Iho brow of the capo , and if nil Juul'.gont . well wo should huvo sat there bathed in the light of tlio midnight sun , and perhaps fell all those grand and Eiiblimo things thai Carlyle , Uayard Taylor , Longfellow , Du Cimillti and oven "Sunset" Cox have ul- tcrcd concerning Iho spectacle , As it was. wo could not oven quote thorn. Wo were a bund of irreverent , everyday people ple , breathless , weary , dronclied , and only inclined to make Iho best of our dls. appointment. At the base of King Oscar's column n shrewd employe of Iho company had sot up a table with u snowy cloth , and from } t ho sold champagne and the beverages of all nations to the cloud-soaked pilgrims. While the young Americans "shinned" up the smooth granite column to its top and there gave Ihrce cheers and a tiger for our mighty eagle , the Urllishers below were drinking lo iho health of Iho qui-on and every ouo also in loni ; winded spcccuuii. When the ( } . A. II. veterans , who lately raided the state westward of Iho Sierras , were at Los Angeles , an odd thing came about. Thny saw John Hrown'o two sous , Owen and Jason , sitting with their families in a wagon. Thereupon the soldier boys unhitched the horses and drew the wagon up Iho street to the tune , "John Hrown's body lies a-nioulderiug In the grave , but his soul goes marching on. " A citi7.cn of Clayton. ( Ja. , lost ,1 valua ble dog , and suspected that lie had fallen into a deserted mining shaft. He could neither see nor hear anything of him at the bottom of the sixty-foot hole , but when ho let down a piece of meat on a string something "bit" as greedily as a Saranac trout. Then a miner went down , and sure enough Iho dog was there , ami after being drawn up was found to bo unhurt.
