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

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

he had been. Ho went back home and now

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. As City Auditor Kinnchan says :
"Tho citj's llnanccs are all right , and when
you Ibid a place that can make a letter show
ing , you can regard it as one of the wonders
of the world. "

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.

Snowed Under IJy tlie Paver * .
Mrs. H. P. 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.

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.
