County Treasurer Pliitncr spent Christmas With his father and mother , and they slipped into his vest pocket a gold watch which any might carry with pride. The young ladles of St. Frnnch church are preparing for n concert and festival In the temple hall next Friday evening. An cx < cl- lent programme has been arranged , including Bomo numbers by the Peak sisters. The Pacific house docs credit to Itself mid to the city by Its elegant holiday spreads.

Knnbe , of Hancock , and C. M. Newton , of Crawford county. It was understood by many that Pat Lac.y's reward for working so zealously for Oronc- weg's election to the senate was to bo the mayoralty , which Gronowcg was to leave open for him by resigning. The opening is made. Now it remains to bo seen whether Lucy can get into it. The Catholic church choir has presented Mrs. O'Neill ' with an elegant pair of opera glasses , as a slight recognition of her valu able services as leader in the musical features of the church worship. She has been active in the choir , and In various entertainments for years , nnd is n born general us well as an accomplished musician. Henry Spctman , one of the proprietors of the Kiel hotel , was generously reminded of the presence of the holiday season by being presented with an elegant gold watch by hla partner D. Hoist. There Is said to be no liner watch in the city , and but one more valuable , and that is made so by the addition of diamonds In the ease , the works being no better. , The police ran in three suspicious charac ters who were found on Main street Monday night , and thought they had part of 'heavy confidence gang. Ofllcers came over from Omaha , but found they were not the men they were after , and it now looks as though the fellows were merely a lot of tramps and "dead broke' ! cripples. They will probably ' go to Jail on the charge of vagrancy. A letter recently received from James Wilds , an old citUcn of this county , who with his wife , left for California Nov. 2:3 : , states that they are located at Los Angeles and are well ana happy. Mr. Wilds has seen the Underwood boys and Mr. Uenton , who loft hero some weeks ago with near loud of horses for that market. They have disposed ot their stock and to good advantage.

The fight was for * ll)0 ) a side and tlio light-weight championship of the west. Urooks wears n bad cut over Ills left eye , but how no other effects of the battle. Probably no one besides the relatives feels BO keenly the. death of Daniel ICelloy as does J. C. Lee , the contractor in whoso employ * the deceased was at the time of his death. There was left no means of defraying the ox- 1 Km es Incident to the bilrlal and to give the unfortunate man n decent Interment without burdening the county Mr. Leo took this bur den and its payment upon himself. This was all the honor which could bo conferred upon the dead , and for it Mr. Leo deserves much credit. Marshal Guanolla returned yesterday from Rockport. Mo. , where ho went after the horse thief , Ed Adams , but had to return Without him , as ho refused to como without n requisition. The necessary papers will bo procured at DCS Moines , und the marshal will leave for Jefferson City Friday evening.

Mardts put up $10 for his appearance this morning. Henry Gu- blo and J. M. Hhodcs were charged with beIng - Ing drunk nnd disturbing the peace. The case was continued until afternoon , when John Lludt appeared for the defendants. Several witnesses were examined on both sides , but the case was not Mulshed , and will bo continued this morning. The evidence fulled to prove them drunk , and the re mainder of the trial will be upon the other charge. ' Ono point dwelt upon by Mr. Llndt was that the fact of the parties walking down street arm in arm was no proof that they wore full , as lie and his partner Mr. Mynster very frequently walked that way. When the witness on the stand told him that the defendants were fuller than the lawyers generally were , Mr. Llndt seemed to Igso all hope In his case , for the assertion was ac cepted by the court as quite conclusive.

The bark Scotland , Captain William Munro , from Liverpool to Now York , stranded hero nt about 10 o'clock last evening , says a dispatch from Sea Girt , N. J. , to the Now York World. During ths voyage an event happened which the sailors said was a sure portent of disas ter , and the result fully justified their fears. When about fifteen days out , and about eight hundred miles from shore , while the crew of twenty me.i were sitting at dinner , they were some what startled by the sudden appearance of a Hock of seven crows , which flow in through the open window and surrounded the table and began devour ing the food which had been set out for the men. The bailers as soon us they saw the crows got up and loft the table saying they had had enough although they had hardly oaten a mouthful. They all seemed to bo stricken with fear and from that dny on wont about their work with a sullen look , as though they apprehended some danger. Aftei that , when they sat down to thoii meals they would in varibly close theii windows and cabin doors so as to pre vent the recurrence of the omen. Among those on board at the time was a young woman from Whitestono , L. I Mary Seymour who had accompanied the daughter of the captain upon the trip. "I am not of a superstitious nature , " said Miss Seymour to a re porter this evening , ' 'but when I saw tlioso crows alight on the table , I was stricken with horror. I have heard ant read so much about the ill luck whicl follows the visits of such birds' that J immediately' felt that something was going to happen. I told Miss Munro the captain's daughterof myfcolingsbul she laughed at mo and oven went so fiu as to catch ono of the birds ant keep it in the cabin for some days. . ' feel satisfied that the crow did not like the idea of Munro keeping the bird or board , but they all thought so much o her that they did not say anything and they all heaved a sigh of relic when the crow died and was throwi overboard. But little was said fron that clay on , and wo somehow had for gotten the occurrence until last nigh when the storm set in. None of the men or myself said anything , but I know that the fear again seized us , and und wo looked for something unfortun ate. ate."At "At 8 o'clock when Captain Munro came into the cabin nnd informed us that by morning we would bo in Now York harbor I heaved a sigh of relief. About half an hour later I was bome- what startled by hearing the mute qull to ana of the men to heave the lead fo ascertain the depth of water. I ascended to the deck nud found n ( orri- blo storm raging. I immediately went below and hardly hnd'I'glned / the uido of Mins Munro when I lizard Something ennp , nnd , soon after that wo were grating upon the bar nnd I know the omen had como true nnd wo were wrecked. The captain , who hnd now gene on deck soon re turned and told us wcht\d stranded on the Jersey coast. TliOibopm hnd broken and had fallen upon the 'wheel , thereby rendering it useless for a time. Al though Captain Munro tpld us that a crow of life-buvers were on shore to render us help at any time should wo desire it. I could not sleep , as I could not drive the thought of the birds from my mind , nnd it was n welcome sight when dny broke and the men on shore rigged the breeches buoy and took use o the ill-fated boat. " The Scotland is of about fifteen ton , burden and loaded with soda ash and empty barrels. Patrolman Bowditch Pcurco , of station No. 9 , left his station nt 8 o'clock last night , after being on midnight watch. The wind was then plowing from the north and the air was Illlcd with snow. He had made his way about half over his patrol when the Scotland was discovered , tossed by the surf on the outer bar. The -crew at the station house was notified and n huge bongre built on the shore near the wreck , for the night was n bitter ono. The nppnratus for the station was immediately hauled to the scene of disaster , nnd n shot fired that carrion a line over the ship. She ship wrecked murinors were in no danger , however , nnd it was not until day light that the breeches buoy was put in operation. The mate of the ship and n sailor were then hauled ashore. The remainder of the crew , twenty in all , remained on the vessel. Miss Munro and Miss Mary Sey mour were taken oil in the breeches buoy during the day. The young ladies manifested much belf-conlldonco when being hauled ashore in the breeches buoy. They stood the ga/.c of the im mense crowd on the beech with com posure. The Scotland is thirty-three : lnys out from Liverpool , bound for New York. The captain reports good weather during the passage. FURNITURE ! We are now prepared for the HOLIDAY TRADE !
