Those who have not fccciired their tickets should dose so early. The funnral of the little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. K. K Harkuess will be held nt 11 o'clock this mornini ; , instead of the afternoon hour previously announced. Friends of the family will please note the change in the time. It seems quite certain that the talk of a union depot up town is far from being all talk. The organization of the com pany , as stated yesterday , and the other straws all show tiiat the wind is blowing all riiilit , and is not to end with wind. Colonel Cnchran was yesterday offered $100,000 cash for eighty acres he owns west of Ihuiscom park in Omaha , also if.'m.OCO for 371 acres in Sioux Cily , but lie refused them , saving lie wished to see the grass grow on them once more.

( Jcorgo Washington Makcpor.cc , one of the be.it known attorneys in western Iowa , at least by name , after having been acquitted of the charge of crookedness on the trial at Dunison , was re-arrested and taken to Logan on a similar charge. He is now breathing the free air again , and waiting for the next warrant. Mrs. Darling , who was before Judge Ayle.sworth on the charge of having liit another woman over the head with a washtub , had her case continued until yesterday morning. She was allowed to go on her own recognizance , and as she has not appeared since it is supposed she is still troing , and may not be back. In the district court yesterday the case of F. J. Day vs Smith & Co. , the con tractors , was on trial. This is a suit to recover about $ -100 claimed for commis sion for selling some paving bonds , it being claimed that they were put in Day's hands for sale , and then when ho had sold them the contractors would not de liver the bonds , but ell'ected their sale through some other means. The interest in the meetings being held in the Uroadway Methodist church every night , by Mr. Forrest , is on the boom order. Ho is stirring up the dry bones in liispuciUinr way , and is doing good. Whatever may bo thought of his eccen tricities and mannerisms lie allows no one lo go asleep , or to fail to give atten tion. Ho is entertaining , as well as earnest. All should hear him. A. S.

Ho claims that ho wont to the agents of Mr. Holirer. who had the sale of the lot in hand , and purchased it for $200 , paying $ .

Lots th.it sold up to last Saturday at $10 each were being bought up yesterday at $30 apiece , and several who own prop erty in tlte same location withdrew theirs from the market. "I Omaha " said was over in yesterday , a gentleman who Is at present at leisure , "and do you know 1 was very much sur prised at the wav several men talked tome mo about Council DluH's. They seem to bo growing rather interested in the future of this city" Not loss than four of them assured me that they intended putting in money.in propcrtv over here , and I had the talk with thorn separately , and fur thermore they are men of some money. To-day I've been quietly nosing around the real estate olliccs and I've seen some six or seven men tiiat I know live in Omaha getting prices and ligunmr around. I couldn't say if they purchased or not , but I'm convinced some good will como out of it. " 11. A.

A breach of promise suit has been Hied in the district court , in which a Weston man , Miles II , Hall , is made the defend ant. The plaintilV is Miss Georgia M Dial , who in her petition tolls the story of her wrongs to bo in substance that Mr Hall wooed and won her allections tt such an extent that ho proposed in May 1880 , nnd she accepting him as her future husband was misled by the conlidenci she hud in him. From May until November ber bo continued his attentions , and renewed nowed frequently his promises of marriage - riago , Then ho cruelly lei ook her. She claims licit she has not only boon wroiigui in heart but in body , and'that she is suffering foring pain and disgrace. She therefore asks for ilnmaups to the extent of $10,000 nnd that n writ of attachment bo issuei to prevent his disposing of his property ami thus defeating her purpose , Tin court has ordered Mich a writ , the shcril not to sciie more than $5OCO , worth o property. A Oooil I'oor Farm. For some time the advisability of sell ing the present county poor farm ha been under consideration. It has beei suggested that a larger farm bo pur chased , tlio revenue from which would bi more of u help in becoming belf-support iug , A dillorent location is also bain ; considered. As the tirst official move ment in the matter the county board yes terday took the following action : Wheteas , The present poor farm pf th onnty beln ? deemed Insufficient in amount ml quantity , nnd not adapted to the wnnts ml uses of a poor farm , Kcsolved , Thru said farm bo sold M pro- Idcd oy law. at public orptlvate sale , ami on ho best possible terms of payments and price > er ncrp , with the viem nnd for the purpose > f reinvesting the proceeds In a poor farm to > o purchased and which will bo better adapted or pnor farm purposes ami the county ami- tor Is hereby authorized to receive mils for tieh farm as n whole , or for parcels or snbill- Islons thpreof , subject to the fiction nud np- irovnl of the board , nud bo It further Kcsolved , .

Tlio ladies in charge of the now city lospitnl have been working zealously to tcuro the needed financial support for his most commendable enterprise. The success which attended the presentation of tlio old-fashioned district school some line ago has caused the ladies of the hos- iHnl association to make a move to secure a repetition of that entertainment , the irocccds to go for the bcnelit of the hos- liltil fund. The ladies have been urgently tsking those who participated in that en- ortaiiimeut to repeat it for the bcnelit of the hospital , and last evening a meeting was held at Odell Hro * . AsCo.'Holllco. The lecision was reached that the request should bo compiodwith. The district school will therefore- repented at the opera muse next Friday evening. There will : > o changes in the exercises so as to make it in many respects a new entertainment. As the ladies and gentlemen participat ing in this entertainment have thus cou- MMitcd to do what they can to holt ) alone the hospital , the public generally will doubtless see to it that the opera house is Tilled , and a round sum put into Hie treas ury of the hospital.

Across the marshes and bayous eight miles to the west from Petite Anso island , writes Charles Dudley Warner in Har per's Magazine for February , rises Orange island , famous for its orange plantation , but called .tellers on island since it became the property of and home of Joseph Jollerson. Not so high as Petite Anso , it is still conspicuous with its crown of dark forest. From a high point on Petite Anso , through a lovely vista of trees with ( lowering cacti in tlio foreground , JolTorson's bouse is nvhite ppot in the landscape. We reached it by a circuitous drive of twelve miles over the prairie , sometimes in and sometimes out of the water , and continually diverted from our course by fences. It is n good sign of the thrift of the race , nrd of its independence , that the colored people have taken up or bought litllo tracts of thirty or forty acres , put up cabins ami now fences round their domains regard less of the traveling public. Wo zig zagged all about tlio country to get round these little enclosures. At one place where the main road was bad , n thrifty Acadian had set up a toll of twenty-live cents for the privilege of passing through his promises. The scenery was pastoral and pleasing. There wore frequent loundi ponds , brill iant with lilies and liours-dc-lis , and hun dreds of cattle feeding on the prairie or standing in the wnter , and generally of a dun-color , made always an agreeable picture. The monotony was broken by lines of trees , by cape-like woods stretch ing into the pla'm. nud the liorizon line wa's always lino. Great variety of birds enlivened the landscape , game birds abounding. There was the lively little nonpareil , which seems to chaugo its color , ami is rod , green and blue 1 Iw- liovo of the oriole tnmily the papabottc , n fnvoritc on Now Orleans tables , in the autumn , snipe , killdeo , the chcrooke ( snipe ? ) tlio meadow-lark , and quantities of teal ducks in the ponds. Tlie.se little ponds are called "bull-holes. " The trav eller is told that they are blurted in this wntery ioil by the pawing of bulls , and gradually enlarged as the cattle frequent them. Ho remembers that ho has seen similar cirnulnr ponds in the north not made bv bulls. Mr. Jellci son's residence n pretty roso'Vino-covored cottage is shunted on the slope of the hill , overlooking a broad plain nnd n vast .stretch of bayou conn try , Along one bide of his homo-enclos ure for a niilo runs n Mipcrb bedgo of Chickasaw roses. On tlio slope Lack of the house , and almost embracing it , is a magnificent grove of live oaks , great gray stems , niul the branches hung with lienvy mnsses of moss , which swing in the wind , like the pendant boughs of the willow , and with something of its senti mental and mournful suggestion. The recesses of this forest are cool and dark , but upon ascending tlio hill , suddenly bursts upon view under the trees a mo.st lovely lake of clear hhio water Tins lake , which may bo n milo long ami half a nil lo broad , Is called Lake Peignour from its fanciful resem blance , I bollovo , to a wool comber. Tim shores are wooded. On the Island siilu the bank is precipitous ; on the opposite shore amid the trees is a hunting lodge , nnd I believe them are plantations on tlio north end , but it is in aspect altogether solitary and peaceful. Hut tlieiblund , did not want life. The day was brilliant witli a docp blue sky ami high sailing ilccoy clouds , and it seemed a bert of ani mal holiday ; squirrels chatted , cardinal birds Hashed through the green leaves ; there flittered about the rcil-wlngci ! blucjkblrd , oluo jays , red-headed wood peckers , thrushes , and occasionally a rain-crow crossed the scene- high overhead head sailed tlio heavy buz/.ards , dobcrib ing great ncriul circles and otl'in thu stil lake the ugly heads of alligators toasting in the sun.

The capital subscribed laving been all expended a new company was formed to lit her for sea.

She returned to Kuglaml August 20. Jwing loa lawsuitthe ship eiimo into the liauds of the sherilV's ollicers , but was re leased and bailed again for New York Mayl , 1P01. On the 12th of September Lint vcnr she suffered mueli from a violent lent gale. In 1802 she performed several voyages to and from New York , and in August of that year ran on a reek near Long Island , injuring her bottom. She was repaired , and returned to Liverpool in January , 183 ( ! , and made another voyage to New York in May. In Marcher or April , 1801 , she was bought by Glass , Eliot & Co. , and was chartered to hiy the Atlantic cable. In March , 1870 , slio again visited New York , and in May following was seized by tlie seaman claiming their wages. Afterward she was used in the cable lay ing service , assisting in la.ying live At lantic cables and one from Sueto Horn- bay. Of late years the great ship has been n sort of white elephant on the hands of her owners , and it was in con templation to semi her to Gibraltar to be used as a corillmlk , but this was recon sidered , ami i-oiiio mouths ago she was purchased by parties who have mnde a traveling exhibition and entertainment concern of her. She is now in Dublin Hay , turning an honest penny for her owners in that way , There is some talk yet , however , of degrading the noble vessel to the service of a eoalhulk and making the Mersey , at Liverpool , her Lethe. The original name of the Great Kastern , though for a short time only , was Leviathan. She has never been on the Pacilic at all.

Chicago Herald : " An innocent man wrongly accused will always appear guilty , " said an old detective yesterday ; "while a hardened criminal under tbe most criminating- circumstances will seem the personification pf virtuous in nocence. I remember n singular circum stance that occurred at the Smithsonian institute in Washington when I was do ing duty there some years ago. In one of the e'oln cases there was a rare old Roman coin , supposed to be the only one in existence. One day a gentleman came with a written order from n high official directing the curator to let him take the coin out of the case to examine it. It was placed in his hand ami after looking at it to his heart's content he returned it , as we thought , to its place in the case and turned to leave the room. The curator. approaching the case to IOCK it. found that tlio coin was missing. lie stated tlio fact to the gentleman , who immediately became very red ami indignant , and de clared positively that ho had replaced it , at the same time trying to leave the room. I intercepted him , and , being convinced from his conduct that lie had stolen the coin , I Insisted upon searching him. Ho positively refused to permit this , whereupon the curator nnd myself after a bard struggle , succeeded is search ing him by force , ami found Iho coin in one of Ins pockets. I was about to con duct the man to jail , when the curator. who had gone to restore the coin , stopped me , returned it to the gentleman , and overwhelmed him with apologius. The poor man had mislaid the original coin in the case and had previously purchased at a great expense a similar one , which wo toiind in His pocket. His visit to the institute was for the purpose of compar ing the two. > ir.lICATEI ) COMI'LXIONl'OW DKlt For infant's toilet is an indispensable ar ticle , healing all excoriations immediate y.
