[ Corns- flponeloucoof Iho UBK. ] The sudden uwukcn- intf of Nebraska City and Its phenomenal grbwth whlqh followed U tluo mniuly to the c/TorU / of a very taw of Its progressive cltl- 7ens. ' Wliilc the masses wore ) "waiting for HotML'thltig to turn up" or depending upon "iihttfral ndvuntntfcs" to keep the city ullvu , n small number of its lending men nmdo a 11 ni ted effort to boom the "sleepy town on the river , " mid were successful. The flutloiml cuVlncnce Attained by Senator Van Wyck during the past few years in a great measure advertised Nebraska City as Ills homo. To him the city is indebted for much substantial uld towards the boom , and for securing the appropriation of $200,000 by the government for the magnificent i > ostofllcu building In courna of erection. . Ono of the first evidences of the city's ' | > iogress , uml ono of the greatest hunotlts to the town , was the location hero of two of the lurgrat packing houses in the west , the Ne braska City and the Trans-Missouri , with n combined capacity of4f < x ) hogs per day. .They give employment to about 450 men. with n daily pay roll of about f 1,000. These mum- moth institutions were secured principally through the personal exertions of the Hon. J.-Sterling Morton , to whoso efforts more than any other single individual Is duo the prosperity of Nebraska City. J. Collins Loyd has been in the city the past week settling up his business affairs as manager of the Trans-Missouri , preparatory tc ( leaving for Manitoba , where ho expects to engage Jn the jiacking business. Tho.houso bare will commence killing by the 1st of November under an entirely now management , the company having recently organised with an increased capital uml cxi > ect to run the house to its full ca pacity. The Nobrusku City company will aliw commence oixritions ngalti by the luttor p-Vvt of this month. The udvcnt of these packing houses induced the H. it M. to locate - cato extensive stock yards here , which have ndilcd a largo i > ur cent to the business of the town , t For several years effoi ts have been made to secure a waterworks system for Nebraska City. Schemes were inaugurated and came to naught ; rontructs wcro made and not car ried out , and nothing came of it but bluster until ex-Mayor I ) . 1' . Holfo , president of the board of ti.tde , took hold of the matter and the result Is that now Nebraska City has one of the Hue-it systems of waterworks and the-be t electric light plant in the state. Tho'acquisition of the Missouri P.icitlu railroad was mainly due to the work of Hon. TV 15. Stevenson and John W. Steinliart , .sec retary of the board of trade. They Wcro un tiring in their efforts to induce this road to Imihl hero and were successful only after considerable scheming. When the IJ , & M first announced their in tention of building a pcriimnput bridge across the river at Nebraska City , the board of trade uird leading business men of this city and farmers of Fremont county , Iowa , petitioned the railroad company to construct a wagon and foot bridge in connection with the rail road bridge , offering to subscribe the ( lifter- ctieo in cost , but the railroad company re fused to entertain the sohcmo , and the pro ject was dropped. Now work on the bridge lias rrmimiuiccd in earnest , and the grading for the east and \\ebt approaches will begin to-morrow. lloyschlag's cereal mills expect to com mence operation in about six weeks , every thing being completed with the exception ol placing some machinery in position.

[ Special Telegram o the BEF. . ] "If the medical corps of the irmy should give their reminiscences of the var they could add a great many interesting stories to the incidents of the internecine strife , which make such popular reading o-day , " said an ex-arrny burgeon now con- iccted with one of the departments in Wash- ngton. "In 1&J3 I wus the acting assistant surgeon of the Eighteenth Pennsylvania uvalry. Wo crossed the Patomac at Itac- eon Fork on the 3d of that year , nnd narched to Frederick , where1 the command vas changed , General Hooker succeeding oncr.il Meiulo nt the head of the division , uid General Stiihel was madu commandant of calvary In place of General iVcasonton. On Sunday , July 2 , the first brigade was en gaged in u small fight nt Llttlcstown , nnd 'ollowing that we hud another little flurry it Ked Mills. Then eaino the battle of ettysbnrg. I was detailed to tuko charge of the hospital ut Hanover , which was u few miles away from the Held , and two or : lu eo days after the light u poor fellow was brought in who had been found in u wheat ileld shot nil to pieces. He hud laid In the jroillng sun for three ) days without food or shelter of nny kind , and he wus in a horrible ondition. The flies had been so thick around lim that he was filled with maggots , und his case seemed u hopeless ono fiom the moment > ve laid eyes upon him , but cverj thing was done to ease his dying hours nnd to make uliii comfortable us he passed out of the world. Turpentine wns freely injected into , ho wound for the purpose of killing the maggots , and , after he had been thoroughly cleansed , he was given a diet of beuf tea and jranily. It was generally conceded , how ever , that his case wus hopeless , und under ; ho direction of the sui > orvising surgeon a large dose of morphine was administered in order that he might pass away with us little consciousness of pain BS possible. But forty-oiKUt hours afterwards ho still lived und did not .scout ut all inclined to quit. Just then u young lady from Hanover , who had been helping around the hospital , asked if there were any special cases of which she might tuko churgo. She was told that there wore und was assigned to look utter this poor fellow. She did her work so well that shortly after he was able to be re moved from the field hospital to u better ono. Hero ho continued to improve and shortly after entirely recovered. This man's name was MeEweiij and ho hud been u private in n Missouri regiment. When discharged as convalescent ho ut once man-led the younfi lady who had done so much towards saving his life , nnd soon afterwards returned to his command where he rapidly arose in rank und was filially mustered out as captain. " "Hy the way , " continued the doctor , "there Is another interesting case which came under my observation , but which ha ? not inilU ) so much romance in it. At the battle of Uallard's Dam. seven miles below Fulmouth , Lieutenant w. C. Weeks , of the Fifth Michigan cavalry received a shot wound in the foot which entirely shattered all the anterior bones. Ho wus taken to the rear and attended by Dr. Woostor of the First Michigan cavalry und Dr. Wood of the Fifth New York. These surgeons at once announced that his entire foot would have te be amputated , but Weeks declined to ulloy the operation to IKJ performed until ho hue seen the burgeon of Ills own regiment , Dr AithurK. St. Ulair , in whom ho hud the ut most confidence. As soon us it could bo dom St. Cluir examined the foot ani decided that a portion of it could b < saved. It was late ut nisht , but i un improvised Hiirgoon's table was preparei and 11 number of tullow dips were lighted ii order that the opperutlon might bo proporlj perfonne-d. Then Dr. St. Ulair ellssectei out all the anterior bones of the foot am brought down the astralgui , or heel bone , si that it wus directly under instead of behlin the extremity of the leg. From this bono In removed thu articulating surface , und briiiK ing u flap of tlosh around finished what i : known us the Pirogotf operation. This wa the first and only time that the operation wa purfoniied during the war. The Held boa pital was not u very convenient place for i mini to recover from such a wound us thl hud been , and Wenilw was sejit on to Wusli ington , where ho was assigned quui tors in the hospital in Armor , SM.UUI e. Hero the uttimillng surgeons ex umlncd him und decided that , inasmuch a there was great danger of blood polsonini and little hope of saving en'en a portion o thu foot hu must submit to an amputation o the lower portion of the leg. Weeks ubso liltuly refused to have this dono. Ho sail that Dr. St. Clair had told him that wit ] proper euro ho might recover , and ho believe hi Dr. St. Clalr moro than In any other BUI goon in tnei army. This disgusted the BUI goons who hud little time for sympathy i those days , and Weeks was allowed to remai with very little attention. Hu laid there fq some weeks gro\vng | constantly worse ' .i almost neglected until ono day Senate ? Zac Chandler visited the hqitul lool ing for Michigan tnon.

[ Special Telegram to the BEE. ] The people of Washington nro beginning to look with covetous eyes upon the presidential conventions of next year. It is proposed to use the Northern Liberty market for a convention hull. This building is 33-t feet long , 120 feet wide , 103 feet high' aud with galleries could bo made to scat 8,000 people. Mr. William Dick- so.i thinks a special building ought to bo and .would bo put up for the purpose. C. S. Moore , secre tary of the Columbia Democratic club , says : "The problem simply is to capture the com mittee. Washington has just the same ad vantages as a place for holding national con ventions that it has , the seat of the national government. It belongs to no state ; it has no vote in n presidential election ; it has no [ Mindidato for the presidency ; it is absolutely neutral , and therefore the proper place to liolel a convention. Hut its natural advanta ges won't e-ouut if representatives of the business men of Chicago , or Kansas City , or Boston or Now York capture the national committee. " * Once She AVas a Dressmaker. Of Mrs. Cushman K. Davis , wife of Senator Davis , of Minnesota , whom the codfish aristocracy of St. Paul refused to recogni/.o in the recent reception to President and Mrs. Cleveland , a writer in the Now York World says : In Washington she goes everywhere , and last , winter , her first appearance there , she was an endless theme for the female newspaper correspondents from the capital. She divided the city into two camps. The one side said "Paint ! " The other cried l > Katy didn'tl" nnd the latter proved their point eventually. There was an oxcubo for the accusation , for her cheeks have a rose bloom upon that is rarely been in the face of any woman over fifteen. She is very pretty ; she might even bo called a beauty. And she is cultured , top speaks French and fiornian well and is an excellent pianist. Her husband plays the cornet like a vir tuoso , and they have charming duels to gether. She went everywhere in Washington , and was thoroughly popu lar and successful. But at home in St. Paul no ono calls upon her and bocietj absolutely refuses te ) accept the lead ol Washington , so she lives with and foi her husband , never sorarated from him for more than a few hours at a time and is his secretary , reader , friend and playmate. The trouble is that Mrs Daviti was a dressmaker and used to fit gowns with pins in her mouth on the ftuno ladies who are oxpecteel to receive bur. Her father was drunken anil idle , her brothers and sisters ir.tiny , ant when she finished her cour o at the public school she finiuii Unit bho was no' ' iittcel to teaoh or enter any occupatior considered refined , and rather thai Btarvo she took to dress making.

Poe > plo used to talk a good deal about "tho prottj seamstress , " and bhu is said to have hue a number of offers before she acceptei Senator Davis. Ho was only a lawye then , and ono who had made his owi way , but in the six years since ho mar ried her ho has been governor and thei bonator.

From the uitural enthusiasm of the Madrid pco- > le I obtained all that an actress may vish for. The theater was crowded. Queen Isabella was in her box , liston- ng eagerly and breaking forth every low and then into the most kindly applause. The following nights performed "Mario Stuard" and then "Mirra. " On the 21st I uid to repeat "Medea. " That evening I had a touching and never-forgotten cxporionc. Before the performance wo vero talking in the parlor adjoining , he stage about our success and the most lotcwortuy things wo had seen in thq Spanish capital. "By the way , " I fiaid , 'to-day I saw a man" that was going ibout in the garments of some religious u'otherhood , shaking continually a hand ) oll. What does that moan'r' I was ol.d that the man was collecting alms to lave prayers boid for the soul of ono Cicholas Chapado , who was to bo shot ho next day. This unhappy man was a oldior , who , under an angry impulse , lad laid his hand upon the hilt of his sword to inveigo against a sergeant who md struck him. They also told mo that us sister , having casually met the man vith the hand-bell , asked who was seu- onced to death. "Nicholas Chapado ; " vas the answer , and the poor girl fell in a swoon. That tale lllled mo with sad ness. "Thcro , " I exclaimed , "while we ire here , gay and thinking only of ap- ) lauso and triumphs , that poor victim s counting the moments that are left to lim. " Thereupon I walked sadly to ny room to dress. After a few minutes ! heard from my husband that two gen- lemon had called and begged to ask of Queen Isabella the life of the unfortu- late soldier. Chapado had been wrong- ully struck by the sergeant and he had done nothing inorb than just TOUCH THE nii/r. of HIS swonn. The ejueen , they baid , was very fond of no ; if'I asked theMlrdon for the soldier t would be granted. ' I promised I would , ry and do all I could with the queen , ) Ut immediately there arose a serious liillculty. General Narvacx. , duke of Valencia , was thejm-esidont of the cabi- ict. It would not Jiavo done for me to go directly to the queen before speaking 0 General Narvaea ; but he was gener- illy feared on account of his oxee&sivo severity. Still , I Icubw I would spoil the whole thing if I wounded the general's n-ido by applying directly to the queen. fortunately , the general was in the au dience. 1 begged him to come and BOOne no if ho could up'aro ' a moment. The general , ever courteous , hastened to comply with the request. As soon as wo wore left alone I motioned him to a seat. The duke was touched by my voice aud vspect , which bore plain evidence of my emotion. "General , " I &aid , "You told mo several times that you could never deny 1 request from mo , so high is the esteem in which you are pleased to hold mo. I beg , then , pardon for that poor tidier. I am a foreigner. I have been n Madrid only a few days , but from the interest that all the people take in that young man , I infer that ho fully do- iOrves it. I was advised to apply directly to her majesty without letting vou know , but I thought , on the con trary , that through your powerful sup port my word can more easily reach the iieart of the queen. I know how highly she esteems you and how deeply she ireats your tried experience and loyalty. "My good lady , " the duke answered , "it is impossible. I am sorry , but wo need an example. Nearly all our revo lutions wore started by the army. Pacts of a similar kind happened seine time ago. Wo were merciful ; you now bco the results. We need tin example. Just now the municipal council was prc&sing the eiueen to grant a pardon , but I ad vised her to bo steady and not yield. After this how can I persuade her to do otherwise ? " Still , I did not lese my courage. I kept up my peroration with the great est enthusiasm , At length the duke was moved. ' Ah , Madam , " ho said , "certainly your prayer should bo granted. Listen to me. Ask an audience of her majesty. She will receive you between the acts. Throw your&olf at her knees ; defend the CAUSJ3 OK THAT I'OOH hOLDlElt , as you have just done with me. The queen is fond of you. She will hesitate ; she will hay that the president of thu cabinet is opposed to it. Then you will send for me and hope. " I could not bay more , emotion bliilod my words. I only boized his transport and followed his advice. As soon as the general loft ail crowded around mo. "What did ho bay ? Docs ho yield ? " "Hush , hush , for pity's sake. Leave mo alono. I cannot say anything , Wait. You mubt wait. After the first act'1 tone queen granted me ) the audience I hrifl applied for , and I , accompanied by ejno of my impresari ! , went to the royal bp * ! I was requested to wait a few moments in an adjoining room , when all of a sudden I hoard cries and strange voices anel hurried foot- stops. An attache of the court , an enemy of Narvaoz , hud attempted sud' dimly'to intrude uj ou the queen's pres ence the sister of yp9r Chapado. JS'ar- vaoz had just come iuitimo to thwart hit onemy'b plan. Nevertheless , the queen who was very weakv ( she was then bear ing unhappy Alphoilio XII. , who wa1 born ono month later ) , on hearing those cries had fainted. 'Wjhen ' she came te she asked to see mo. ' ltThe good qucoi apologi'/.ed to mo' for having kepi mo waiting , as well as for the excitement mont , which bho could not con coal. All her ministers surrounelee her. I lost no time , but throw mybcl at her knees , kissed her hands ani gaid : "May it plcabei your majesty t ( pardon poor Chapado ? Let yourself b ( moved by our prayers. Ho is guilty , i ib true ; but may it please your majesty for one moment to take a merciful viov of the position of this poor young man who was impelled to resent the deep in suit which ho wrongly nurtured in the presence of his coiniianions. Refusi not life to a loval , valiant subject win is , readv to give it for his queen. If i is true thiit I have deserved f-omo p ' not tin your imiJe&tyVbj'mpathy eleny .pardon which now !

"If It pleases your majesty to follow ' , ho Impulses of her generous heart'tho irosldont , humane as ho is , will not op- ) ese them. " Then Narvaez advanced aud nodded assent. The queen then shaking my hands , Ifted mo up. "Yes , inadaino ; yes , wo will pardon him.

In the enthusiasm of the people my name was mentioned with ; hnt of the queen.

Cincinnati Enquirer : Mrs. John Stoinort of No. 46 Finlay street , is to- lay watching every hour that passes intil the time shall come when her son , 'or whom she searched for nineteen years , will come to her for proof that iho is his mother. Twenty-one years ago and over there ived in the City of Covington , Ky. , a 'amily named Koifor. Ono of the daughters of this family , Judic , a lovely anel intelligent girl , fell in love with a r'ouny man named William Mullen , and , hey were to bo married. But the old story was told again , and when she was ibout to become a mother ho eleserted licr. licr.The The child was born , a bright and pretty boy , and when the deserted girl iuul recovered she had to assist in sup porting the family. Her mother was a widow , with a largo family dopeneling on her , anel it was hard work for them to got along. But the young mother worked faithfully and did much to keep the wolf from the door. When the boy was three years old she was taken down with binall-pox and had to go to the hos pital. Here she hung between life and death for many weeks , and at last she returned to her mother's homo to find that her boy was gone. Her mother ssid that the burden had been to great for her , and having a chance to give the boy a good homo she had given him to a wealthy lady living in Cincinnati , and who still Itves there. To this lady wont the agonized young mother for her boy. She was coldly re ceived , and told that the boy was in good hands and would bo well taken care of , but she should never again see him. She was satisfied that she had boon the victim of a conspiracy , and that her mother was ono of tno conspirators raters to put the child away from her. She registered a vow that the object of her life shoulel bo to find anel recover her boy. She went to work with a will , denying herself everything , save the necessities of life , and using her earn ings to further the search for her child. Four years after the boy had disap peared , and when ho was seven years old , a man in Covington asked her to become hiswifo. She told him frankly tlo story of her life how she had been betrayed and how her chilel had been stolen from her. The man listened to her story and agreed to lot the dead past bury the dead. "But there is another thing , " she said to him as they stood together ono day. I have devoted my life to the bcarch of my boy. If my marriage to you prevents my following that search I cannot marry you. " "Your life is my life , " was the reply. "Your sorrow , your pleasures are mine. I will join you in thoboarchandwo will llnd your boy. " They were married. Considerable money was expended , and many dis appointments wore mot with. At last they found a trace of the child. A sister of the man who had ootraycd and dcborted the girl told the mother that her aunt had taken the baby boy and given it to John Mullena brother to the man who had left the betrayed girl at the altar , and that ho lived near Dun- oanvillo , OJiio , on a farm. Last Friday morning John Mullen stood on the porch of his comfortable homo watching a carriage drawn by two spanking horses come rapidly up the road , and when it stopped at his gate ho went out to greet the occupants , a man and woman. The woman stopped up to him and , in a voice husky with bup- pressed excitement , said : "Aro you not John Mullen ? " "That is my name , madam. " "Did you not have a brother whc many years ago betrayed and do erte < l his promised bride at Covington , Ky. ? ' : John Mullen nodded bib head alllrma- lively. "Thai deserted bride became the moth er of a boy. When ho was three years old ho was stolen from her one day while she ) lay sick in a hospital. Years and years faho haft searched for her child , and at last she has been rewarded. ] am the woman your brother bo babclj deserted , and 1 am hero to claim inj boy , whom you have brought up in ignorance of his mother as your son. " This was so astonishing to Mr. Mullen that he could hardly speak for a mo ment , but ho invited the two into the parlor. Mullen did not talk much , bul BOOH loft the room in a rages. Hanging on the wall of the room vrm the picture of a baby boy , and on this the mother fastened her eyes. John Mullen tried to deny , that the boy was hers. The boy was brought in an'd she abkod him his name , and ho re plied that it was Job o Mullen. Ho tali that his father and mother were botl dead. Then she abkpd , him if ho knov of a man by the nome of William Mill leu , and ho replied that ho did , ani that William Mullen was his undo During al ) this .conversation the mothoi first Iqoked'at a.photograph of the 'boj that'Jiu g on''the-wall and theiu at .the boy. finally eho said to him : "Bill Mullen is iiot your undo , but your lather , and L am your inolhor. " And then she burst Into tears and fell on the shoulder of her long-lost boy. The boy said that ho had been told while In Cincinnati that ho was only an adopted child , but ho could never trace the Information to any reliable tourco. John Mullen had always told htm that his parents were doail , and that ho was laid on Mullen's door-stop when ho lived in Covington. After a long conversa tion they separated , with the under standing that the boy would come to Cincinnati in a few days to live with his mother. John Mullen has threat ened to have the person arrested who gave Mrs. Stoinort her information , but it will evidently end in a threat. William ( better known as "Ram Cat" ) Mullen , is a very tough citizen , anel has been arrested in Covington and other places in Kentucky for various crimes. Ho has also been inside the walls of the Frankfort ( Ky. ) peniten tiary. Foolcel Ity a Millionaire Miller. Chicago News : The recent conven tion of librarians at Round Island , in the St. Lawrence river , recalls an in cident of last year's convention. After the proceedings nt Milwaukee con cluded the members started off on a trip through the northwest. They visited several summer rcborts , mining and lumber camps , and then crossed over to Minncapeilis and St. Paul. Among other points of interest they took in the great Pilsbury flouring mills. Fred Hild , of the Chicago library , was at the head of the visiting delegation and ho took it upon himself to show the eastern delegates about. At the mills they wcro met by a pleasant featured old man dressed in a suit of Hour dusted clothes. He was a very intelligent old chap and was well up in the milling business. Ho took the visitors all about the immense establishment , showing them the process by which flour was ground , separated , packed and barreled. Ho was so exceedingly polite anil at tentive that Fred felt that some return should bo made foe tho.troublo ho had taken. Accordingly , when the visit was concluded ho took the old gentle man in the dusty clothes aside and gave him ono of Moos' cigars. "There , " ho said , "allow me to present this slight token to show how wo appreciate your politeness. You have been exceedingly obliging , my good man" and ho went away proud in the consciousness of a good act. That night the vis itors were tendered a banquet at the hotel West. The astonishment of Hild may bo imagined when ho behold the dusty old miller arrayed in a swallow tail coat and wearing on his bhirt front a diamond as big as a turnip. " \Vill you kindly tell mo , " said Fred , turning to a St. P&ul man , "who that distinguished looking old man ib ? " "That , " said the St. Paul man , "is Governor Pillsbury , the millionaire mill owner. " Josh AVhltcoml ) an a Gambler. Now York Sun : Dcnman Thompson , the shrewd and genial old actor , is ono of the nerviest and wildest betting men on the turf. Tie bets for the sport of the thing and not because ho knows anything of horses. A btory of the ex perience of the bookmakers found its way into town yesterday through a letter - tor from a western man who is on very intimate terms with Den Thomp-on's family. When the actor cleaned up after last season's work ho took $40,000 of his earnings , gave it to his wife , and retired to his farm in Massachusetts. About six weeks agohe came to Now York , wont to the races just for a flyer , won $2,600 , and caught the betting fever. They couldn't get him away from the paddock until ho figured up and found his loss just $10,000. He drew a long mug , made good every cent , and said : "Well , I guess I'll go back to my farm and labor for Iho rest of the summer. Sporting life is too rich for mo. " Accordingly he wont back .to the country and joined the laborers until his season opened. Laborers digging a cut for a railroad near Canterbury uncovered an almost perfect circular well built of flints. Local antiquaries say. that it is the opening lo Porno subterranean passage used by the Romans when they camped thoro. The workmen had previously found near the same spot the remains of two Roman soldiers. While some men who were taking the places of striking hands in the North ampton , England , shoo factory were go ing homo from work they were beset by a mob of strikers , and in the midst of the excitement George Arnold , ono of the workers , staggered , throw up his hands and fell to the pavement dead from heart disease. James Williamson , of Toronto , O. , captured a live crow in his cornfield. While carrying it homo he was attacked by hundreds of other crows. Ho first tried to run away ; then ho made a vig orous atlomt to defend himself with a club ; next ho sought shelter in a shed , where Iho besieging crows kept him a prisoner for more than an hour.
