After 8 short conyersation in German, Mrs, Egnor raked tho Lieutenant if sho could obtain the mouey {akon from tho prisoner on the day of his arrest. Tho Lloutonant theroupon accompanied tho poor woman to tho office of tho Buperintendent of Peolice, where ho found tho sum of $25 placed to Egner’s credit, which ho delivered to the wife, A recoipt was then fillod and taken down to Eg- nor's coll for him to sign, whick he did In & bold, firm band. By that time Mre, Egner waa woop- ing bitterly. Bho extended hor hand through tho grating to the prisoner, who at frst grasped it, but suddenly, as thongh ashamed of oxbibiting oven so much feoling, flung it vio- loutly from him, oxclaiming in the Gorman tongue, '* Got away from horel” Bho rotroated & fow steps in such an agony of weopiog that Bomo of the spectators could scarcoly restrain their tears, and then roturning Iimpulsivoly bogged Lor husband to kies her, Ho turned mway from ber in silence, loaving her wooping at the grating, until Capt., Hudwon approachod aud gently lod tho wroiched wife away.

Mre, Rufor here beeatno vory much excited, and burst into a violent tirado of abuse against tho Egnors,— the inhumao Egners, who bad forced her hus- band luto_this_trouble. So violent hor monner became that Capt.

A Terribio Narrative from Nobrasika— A Whole Family Consumeds Prom tha St, Joseph (3fo.) Heraid, Nov, 12, Last evoulvg Capt, Georgo_Luckland aud Mr. Oharley Lousbaw, who cawo in on tho 11 o'clock truin of the Kausay CAéy, St. Josoph & Council Bluffs Ralirond from Gagoe County, Nevraska, brought tho nows of a sad aceidont that oc- curred by ronson of the groat prairio-fires that aro now raging in that scction of tho State. Those gentiomen claim that it is not altogother improbable that many other families have suf- fored in the same msbner, and that it will bo necessary to oxtend lberal aid, and that vory shortly. g Capt. Lackland, a rocont citizen of Lincoln, Neb., and s gentleman well kuown in this com- munity, says that ever smince Friday night one weok ago thio fires on the prairie have been burn- ing with tersibla vim, swospiag overythiug that comes in thoir way. The heavy winds now prov- slent upon the prairies, of courso, add fury to the flames, and thoso families that can move ars hasteuwg to avoid ita wrath snd save what littlo of their proporty they can. Many of them are loaviug bobind almost” all of their worldly pou~ sessivns, nnd aro Lraveling with nothiog but their teaw and o scaut allowance of provisions, Many ot these people are but poorty elad and have al- ready putfored much from tho pinchiug wind, Ho snys that their sufforiug muse of necopsity bo groat. Ho gives us tho details of the terrible calamity that ovortook the family of Mr. William 8, Horndon, & well-known farmer of Gago Uounuty, Ho usys he mot Mr, Herndon on Monday night, on his way to Lincolu, whoro ha has relations residing and whore he expucts aid, From Mr. Herndon's own lips ho lesrnod the story of his sufferings. Boma threo yoars ago Herndou moved to Gage County from lowa, and purclasod G0 aoros of land 9 miles from tuo county sont. Ho prospered sud was doing woll until tho late disaster, which not only de- stroyed bis property, but loft him alonc in tho world, the flro Lhaving overtakes his family, con- eisting of his wifo aud two chuldren, and burned thom to death. Horndon saye he noticod the fire miles away on Saturdny night, but 1t wus no uncommon thing to teq the graas burning, aud ho paid but little nttoution to it, although Wie wife seomed cousiderably alarmed, and, bofore bodtimo, sho had called hisattention to 1t sovernl times. He still thought nothing of it, or that it was noth- ing niore than the giuss burning and would bo out by morning, Uudor this belief bo, with his fewmily, rotited. In tho morniug it was noticed that tho fire was evon bursing with more vim, and had evidontly como neator to them. lo wug still inclined’ to boliove that it would paes srouud aud leave him usmolested, or that ic \‘\“ould rain sud thus pus dangor out of the ques- on. A heavy wind springing up at noon, however, and blowing dircctly from tho firo towards the bhouso, warned bim that tho dangor was growing imminent. Ilis childron wero wow oryiug Lhmufih fear, and his wifo was importuning him to mako tho host of timo, Arraugements wera soon made for tho_jouruoy, and in o two-horse wngon they started, moro than 10 ipilos iu ad- vaneo of the fire, with overy &)robuhuuy of hoing uble to got out of its reach.” Good timo was made by the team, and not until lsto in tho evening, wihien the wind incronsed in fury, was thero any approliousion of dungor. About™ dusk tho wind increased to o hurricune, and the flames began to approach them with terriblo epoed and awfut ravdeur, Iastor and fustor they camo, aud r. iforndon says that it was ovidont that thoy would ovortake thow ina very few wmomonls, What was to bo dono uuder tho ciroumetanovy was n quostion that had to be decidod quickly.
