Snowed Untl r by the Pavers An Ad ditional Addition Slop H Minute Bmiill Happenings Ticked Up by the Way. He Knows Hotter Now. John Traytor lives on n farm In Nebraska. Ho has some money to spare but none to throw away , so when an old acquaintance asked him for temporary loan of $40 , ho looked shrewd and wanted a note secured by u chattel mortgage. Hut John came to Council HtufTs , and while sitting at the depot a stranger told him it was a pleasant day. Uylmpaitlng other information of a like valuable nature the stranger won John's con- lldcncc. Hat conlldencc was not all ho wnnteil , HO he Invited John to take n short walk with him. They had not proceeded far before they weio overtaken by a third man , who presented nn express book nnd toltl the stranger llmt ho could not send out those trunks und packages unless the charges were prepaid. The stranger only had a few dollars in cash , but would give n check for the tftO. The expressman did not take checks , but suggested to John that he cash it and help his friend out. John. icadily loaned the SM and took the check with out security. The two went -oil together , leaving John standing there. When ho re turned to the- transfer he tried to gettho uliei'k cashed , and then rcall/ed how shrewd he had been. Ho went back home and now liu Is ufi.iid of a check.

Not Heavily Itondrd. The subject of paving bonds and special assessments is one tli.it is receiving consider able attention Just at present from the city ofllrhils. Two extra men arc kept busy in the clerk's oftU-e making out the notices , and as m.uiy more arc employed by the marshal in serving them. Hotuls to the amount of fiiOjOOO were issued for the paving of the past bcason , and these assessments are made to meet them. There is a disposition on the part of some parties to object to them , but City Attorney Holmes proposes to lake im mediate legal steps to secure the necessary money. Paving bonds for over l.'iO.OOO have been issued by this city , and have been met as far as they huvo matined , yet theiois still over $ UH ( , IK)0 ) outstanding on this account to bo paid by prl ate assessment. The dis position * of propci ty-owners to mur mur against so great an outlay is not st range , when the item of taxed for the _ present j ear is taken Into consideration. The new bridge , the 10 mill judgment levy , the large amount of pav ing , and the extensive sewer changes and im provements , have made a gi eat demand on the ti.\ : paying citizen , in addition to the regu lar city expenses. Although the city is car rying a heavy loi'd , the situation is not as bad as some , who are opposed to all improve ment , are trj Ing to make out. The bonded indebtedness of the city is but about * 15UXH , ( > , \\hlch is not at all Jut of the way for a city where so many public improvements have been made.

A tcynporary writ of injunction was granted at Avoca by .ludgo Loofbourow Tuesday morning restraining the Union Pa cific comp'any from prosecuting work on Tenth avenue. The plaintiff i > J. J. Shea , who , together with Ed WicUhnm , owns lots thirteen and fourteen , block live , in Kiddle's subdivision. The claim was that the com pany had not settled for damages done the property , nnd that if the work was allowed to be completed , they would have legal re- dicss. All the other lots abutting on the north side of Tenth avenue were purchased cither by the railroad company or the new dci > ot company. These two lots wcro offered the company last spring tor $1,000 but were icfiiscd. No movement was made in the matter by the plaintiff till the last moment , the trackhi.\crs having nearly reached the place when stopped. Had there been no in- terfence , the rails would have been laid past the spot yesterday. The ofllcials of road yesterday sent word to ] Hr. Shea , asking his price , as they wished to settle the matter. A meeting was hold between Mr. Smith , Mr. Shea's attorney , and the railroad represen tatives in the afternoon for the purpose of affecting a settlement. Always nt the Front.

Snow , living at the corner of rourth street mid Fifth avenue , Is very In dignant at the amount of her special paving assessment. The property extends the whole length of the block from Fourth to Uluff fetreet , thus fronting upon three streets , nil of which have been paved this season. The assessment against her for work done on these streets amounts to over ti.lHH ) , nnd she rebels against paying It. Since the decision rendered In the Lytntm case n few weeks ago by Judge Uccmer , the city attorney has taken especial caie to have personal notice of these assessments served on the property owners , and now in case of u refusal to pay , suit will bo brought against the property , which will be held for the amount. The amount of Mrs. Snow's assessment seems large for ono person's properly , but It is not clear why there should be any less assessed against the proin-rty than If it was in the hands of several parties. A FIGHT WITH A SLAVER. A Recent Buttle Which AVou Promo tion 1'or n Ijieiitrnnnt. London Times : A few days ago the lords of the admiralty promoted Lieu tenant Fred F. Fegen.R. N. , to be com mander , to mark their recognition of his gallant conduct in as brilliant and thorough a sea-dog exploit as over graced British naval annals. Last May Lieutenant Fegon who was on board her majesty's ship , Turquoise , then station ed at Zanzibar , set out on board an or dinary pinnace with seven men to patrol that path of the East African coast and watch for Arab slavers. On the morning of May HO , the pinnace was lying snugly anchored within Fun- gas gap , Pombn , an island to the north of Zanzibar. The crew of the pinnace comprised live bluejackets , one marine , oiio interpreter , and Fogon. At daylight - light the lookout reported that a dhow was entering the gap. So far ns could be ascertained ; she seemed to be a peaceable trader , making for port un- dercrowded sail. Only a man or two could bo seen on deck , and there was nothing to indicate that the craft was full of slaves and armed men. The lieutenant had a little dingy with him , and in this , as n matter of duty and pre caution. , he sent his coxswain , the marine' , and the interpreter , to hail the tsrnngcr and see that she was all right. Stoutly the little dingy was rowed to ward the dhow to intercept her as she ran along. When within ono hundred yards of the Arab the interpreter hailed them , but received no un&wor , nor could ho see anybody on board , for the huge sail screened lior crew. Plying their oars with more vigor , they made to board the strange waft , when in stantly a score of swarthy faces arose about'tbe gunnel , nnd a volley from Sni der rilles was poured into the dingy. Fegcn fahonted orders to his men to turn the nine-pound gun with which the pinnace was armed , to bear on the dhow , while at the same moment one of his men opened fire on them with his Martini-Henry- marine , from the dingi'i had already got to work with his weapon , and was evidently doing-execu tion. The slaver , holding the dingy ns too insignillcnntf changed her course and bore down full upon the pinnace , clearly intending to run aboard hnr. 'Fcgen nnd his four men had their anchor tripped in a trice and made sail , but there was no time to get under way before down upon them came the dhow. The lieutenant called , "Prepare to re sist boarders ! " "Stand to them mv lads , " nnd , setting that example which in warfare , at any rate , is before nil precept , jumped forward to repel the at tack as the two vessels bumped together. With characteristic ferocity the slavers some thirteen Arabs and seven blood thirsty half-breed cutthroats endeav ored to spring aboard the pinnace. Fc gen shot two down with his revolver und ran a third through the body , when ho in turn would have fallen under n fierce blow from an Arab's blade had not Pierson , an A. B. , run the man through with his cutlass. As it was , Fcgcn received a severe wound on the right arm ; but still the fight went ob , for he could nso his pistol with his left. Three pf his men were cut down , and were by this time lying seriously wounded in the bottom of the pinnace , while iiino Arabs had already been slain by our sturdy tars. Still Fcgen battled on , shooting , pushing and shoving , with the help of his crew of now one man , both of them receiving fresh stabs und wounds. J. Guys nnd Fred Russell , leading seamen , had stood by him like steel , lighting with the courage and de termination of those heroes who have immortalized our navy. RussclJ lought on heedless of his many wounds until ho sank from sheer loss of blood. At length the dhow slipped past nnd sheered oil ; not to escape , however , for , wounded as all on the pinnace wcro , they fought and held on with the tenacity ot bull- 'dogs. With those still in the dingy they maintained a lire on the dhow and followed her up. The slavers replied with their Sniders , and Fcgen , seeing his men in the dingy exposed , held the pinnace to the wind to obtain the weather gnugo and cover the "punt. " The protracted fight atti acted n number of Arabs to the shore , and they in turn began firing nt the two , to them , hated British eraft. A lucky shot from one of the Martinis killed the slaver's helmsman , and the dhow broached to in shallow water and capsized' The remainder of the ras cally crow ( dunged into the sea , which was about two fathoms deep at the spot , and swam for the shore , four or five only succeeding in reaching the land alive. Most of the penned slaves managed to scramble out und hang on to the dhow , their heads alone visible out of the water. Fcgen got his men from the dingv on board the pinnace , and with a foU shell from the nine-pounder drove away the boligerant Arabs on the shore. This done ho hcnt the dingy to the res cue of the slaves , and succeeded in sav ing the lives of fifty-tin eo unfortunate i negroes. Unfoitunatoly twelve had been drowned by the capsizing of the dhow , the number of slaves on board having ' been sixty-live. A sailor named Benja min Stone , an A. B. , was the only ono killed outright on our side during the plucky little ten fight. So far us known up to the present the wounded blue jackets are till doing well. A Kulualile Nest.

On Wed- ncfedny i of this week Jnnie.s Wilson nnd Paul ] Nash wcro hunting in n piece of ncnr i Mnhonoy's house. A gray fcquirrcl wan seen running toward a inrgctree. _ Nnsh shot mid wounded it , but it es caped up the tree. In watching it go | up the tree the hunters discovered < n peculiar-looking object between ' two branches near the top of the tree and saw the squirrel disappear at that spot. Nasli climbed the trco nnd found a wooden box , into which the squirrel had crawled at a hole in ono hide of it , and lay dead among u heap of rubbibh. On examining the contents of the box Nash was astonished to see that they were mudo Up entirely of small particles of bank notes. Ho brought the box to the ground. P.iom the quantity of remnants of bijls and the largo fig ures on them denoting what their de nomination had been , they must have represented the destruction of between $ .5,000 and $7,000. 'When the discovery of the box was made known a neighbor of Mahoncy's remembered haying scon the old miser pay ssvoral visits to the old trco just before ho di d. It is sup posed that the old'man foil that his end was near , and had removed his money from his house to , the curious hiding place where it was sound. The squirrel 1ml discovered the pile of paper and the box , and had torn the bills into frag ments to make itself n ann und cosy nest for the winter. whero&O E.
