doch got homo Into nnd went to bed about
midnight. Ho was just sinking Into slumber
when ho was nwakcncd by n nolso nt the
whitlow opening out on the roof of the porch.
Ho seized bis shotgun nnd stole cautiously up
to the plnco to find n burglar attempting' to
effect mi entrance. Ho shoved tha muzzle of
tbo shotgun Into the fuco of the startled
housebreaker and told him that ho must sur
render or suffer Immediate death. The
burglar HIUV Unit Mr. Murdoch had the drop
on him und accepted the former alternative.
The fellow begged Murdoch not to Idll dim ,
nnd the gentleman Informed ulm that ho
would spare his llfo If ho would Jump from
the porch and allow Mr. Murdoch to conduct
him to the police station.
Murdoch hastily donned his clothes nnd
Crushed to the front door , but found the burg-
'lur disappearing through the front Rate. No
attention was paid to tlio cry of "halt , " nnd
Mr. Murdoch emptied the contents of ono of
the barrels of the shotgun nt the fugitive.
Ho brought the fellow down , the shot taking
effect In thS'hlp. The fellow dropped his
revolver and burglarious Instruments nnd
Mr. Murdoch again captured him and gath
ered ui > the articles ho had dropped.
Moaawhllo Mrs. Murdoch , who was.pnr-
nlyzod with terror , thinking her husband was
murdered , began to utter n sorlos of piercing
shrieks. Mr. Murdoch , thinking that the
burglar was too badly Injured to again at
tempt to cstapo , wont back into the house to
assure his wife that everything xvas all rifrht.
Ho again returned to his prisoner a few min
utes later and was startled to sco him disap
pearing up the street. Ho fired again , the shot
taking effect nnd making the follow blto the
dust a second tlmo.
At this juncture a cart drove hurriedly up
to where the wounded burglar was lying and
a powerful man with a hat pulled over his
eyes Jumped out hastily , lifted the prostrate
man into the vehicle ana , laying- lash , the two
drove off. This was the last scon of tnem.
Mr. Murdoch turned the burglar's revolver
nnd the burglarious Instruments over to the
police.

The reception was held from 8 to 10 , and at
the latter hour the bugle call was sounded
and the gallant ofllcers fell Into line with
their handsome wives and charming
daughters. The doors of the dining hall
wore thrown open and n darzllng scene pre
sented Itself. The palatial hull was lit with
the refulgence of n hundred olcctrio lights ,
nnd the snow whlto walls gllstcuod

silver und crystal reflected and multiplied the
Clcctrlo Jots. Smllaxwas pracofully entwined

Gentlemen of the Loyal Legion : I take
pleasure In being with you this evening and
Joining In cordial fellowship with the mem

f Legion of the United States by its very uatno
proclaims itself a patriotic institution , nna ns
such commends Itself to every true lover of

nioro than the more perpetuation of war
memories. I believe Its purpose is to inspire
iv love for country , a loyalty to good povorn-
ment , and n fidelity to our free institutions.
In thcso grand sentiments wo can all join
bands and bo brothers.
* > In the narrow walks of politics wo may
bo known as democrats , as republicans , or ns
Independents , but m the broad domain of
patriotism political distinctions vanish and

The perpetuation of our government depends
upon the cultivation of patriotic ! sentiment ,
for the true lever of his country is ever
jcady to lay dowu his Ufa for Its preserva
tion.

"But , gentlemen , 'Peace hath her victories

Im'mortnl Douglas sounded forth as true a
patriotism when bo tuld the people to obey

the dying Mulligan when they uttered in fee-

"For several years before and during the
war I lived on what was known as the front

For years the cost has hold the attention
of the American people , both In regard to
political matters and material wealth. But
the arena of active oppcrations tms been
transferred to the great valley of the Mis
souri and the rugged mineral fields of the
further west Active measures arc being
taken to secure an extensive systems of
Irrigation , and eastern capital Is Hawing
westward to aid In developing the vast min
eral resources of the now stntes of the
mountain mrlon. Any intelligent person
wtio will make even a casual examination of
this field will bo forced to the conclusion
that the mining operations of the west are in
their infancy , with magnificent possibilities
In the futuro. _ To the citizens of Nebraska
the development of no one of these mineral
states is of more Importance than its neigh
bor to the northwest , Montana. And per
haps no state of the whole mountain region
has brighter prospects ns a producer of
precious and baser metals than Montana.
The development of the mineral resources
of Montana means a permanent borne market
for Nebraska hogs , cattle and grain , nnd a
great community of consumers contiguous tea
a great agricultural stato. The stale of Mon
tana in 1800 produced one-third of nil the
precious metals mined in the United States ,
nnd nt the present rate of development , and
considering the richness of the ore taken out ,
it Is safe to say that In 1891 shn will produce
ono-half of the on tire output of the precious
metals of the United States.
One of the most promising mines lately dis
covered Is the Mineral Hill mlno , mention of
which was made in THE BUR last October.
At that time it was not much more than a
facing. Later developments prove it to bo a
regular bonanza. This mlno Is located on In
dian crcolr , in Jefferson county. Just south
of it Is Butte , the greatest mining ramp in
the world. It Is only a few miles from the
famous Oranlto Mountain and Bimetallic sil
ver mines , and .Tuv Gould's mining district Is
only twenty miles distant. This mine
was discovered by M. E. Pinncy , one of the
best posted locators in the west , A stock
company has been formed , with Mr. PInnoy
as president. The mine has been opened nnd
extensive operations are now going on. The
claim is 1,500 hundred feet in length by 000
feet In width , Samples of ere were taken
from the entire frontage , which assayed ? 3.75
in sliver nnd 1 In gold , to ? M0.25
in silver and ? 5 ( ) in gola per ton. The result
was astonishing to the owners themselves.
Siuco November 1 a road has boon built
through the timber and over the mountain to
the mine , and substantial board
ing houses for the employes , stmft
huiiso , blacksmith shop , ere houses , etc. ,
have been erected. A shaft is being sunk
nnd cross sections will bo made to ascertain
thoqualltyof ere at different depths. This
mine , which li located in the best mining
region in the world , has peculiar advantages
not always mot with In mining countries ,
viz , an abundance of timber right on the
ground , and unlimited water power within n
few hundred feet of the shaft. This descrip
tion of n mine which Is a bonanza to Its own
ers , and which will yiola thorn inoro wealth
than Crxsus over ppsscssod , gives an idea of
the rich stuto Nebraska Is neigh
bor to , the mutual benefits of which
should enlist the interested attention of Ne
braska's citizens. The B. & M. railroad has
built a line almost diagonally across this
state from southeast to northwest , nnd the
Union Pacific taps this region also , thus giv
ing ample opportunities for exchange of pro
ducts , which will bo like factories to the ono
nnd cornfields to the other. Mr. Plnnov , the
fortunate gentleman above mentioned , Is an
old resident of Nebraska City and well
known all over the state.
The importations into this country during
1800 show 00,130 cases of G. H. Mumm &
Go's. Extra Dry , being an increase of 27,000
over the provioua.yonr , evidencing the high
appreciation in which this wlno Is hold for
its excellent quality. It Is recommended by
the most eminent physicians in this country
for Its purity , small amount of alcohol and
wholcsomoncss , wullo for a flno dry cham
pagne , "G. H. Mumm & Go's. Extra Dry is
considered by connoisseurs as unsurpassed.

Harvey Mlddlcton , superintendent of mo
tive power of the Union Pncltlc , Is to be re
tired on February 1 , and will bo succeeded
by Joseph McConuoll , formerly master me
chanic of the shops nt North Platto. Mr.
McDonnell's headquarters will bo at Omaha.
Fred Mortzlielmer , superintendent of the
Clioycnno division , will bo brought to
the mechanical department as assistant to
McConnell , with headquarters at Cheyonno.
Mr. John Wilson , who bos boon with tbo
Union Pacific for ever twenty-three years as
'draughtsman , chief clerk , assistant superin
tendent of motive power , und In practical
control of tbo inotlvo power ot tbo
entire Nebraska division , has bcon
offered the position of master ino
ctmnlo of the Nebraska division , Ho has
declined the position and will leave the
vice of the road with thotncouilngof thonuw
administration.
Speaking of the changes on the tapis In the
motive power department an ofllclal at head
quarters expressed surprise that Mr. Clarlr ,
in seeking a successor to Harvey Mlddletou ,
bud overlooked John Wilson , whom
ho had appointed eight year * ago to
the position which ho no\v \ holds
and in which ho virtually had complete
control of the entire mechanical department
of the system. During the incumbency of
Hackney nnd Gushing Mr. Wilson's had
really been the guiding hand , nnd this was
also true , to a great extent , under the present
administration.
The gentleman quoted expressed great sur-
prlso that Mr. Wilson's well known ability as
a practical man and his familiarity with'tho
requirements of the system , had not in
fluenced Mr. Clurk to appoint him as Mr ,
Mlddloton's successor.
"I feel eonlldout , " ho remarked , "that If
Mr. Wilson had asked for the posi-
tlon it would have been given mm ,
but ho Is very modest about pushing himself
forward and I presume ho thought Mr. Clark
was familiar with his record and would do
him justice.
" 1 am not surprised that ho has declined to
servo under McConnell , as ho " Hero ho
checked himself as If holmd already said too
much.
Being pressed for his ideas ho merely said
that ho thought the new order of things
would not test long , as McConnell had not
been remarkably successful In his manage
ment of affairs under his charge when ho was
In the service of the company some years ago.
The refusal of Mr. Wilson to accept the
position tcndeied him has rather unsettled
the plans of the incomingsupcrintendontaud
it is not known who will bo placed In charge
of the Nebraska division , which Is the most
important in the system.

A rumor was current about Union Pacific
headquarters yesterday to the effect that

Trafllo Manager Mellon was to bo loft out In

ing to the rumor , was booked for the oDice of
