Bunton, John Ellis, and Henry Wilson on the | eharge of cutting timber on land one | and a half miles south of the city, | claimed by George M. Mills. The ease was brought before Justice Lytle, when a change of venue was taken to Justice Thurston, and the trial set for next Saturday, the defendants being allowed to appear on their own | recognizance, This same matter was brought up before Judge Porter for trial on the 14th inst. Mr. Mills in- troduced his title to the land, and Bunton claimed it by possession, hay- ing a house on it, and living there. Judge Porter dismissed the case on the ground that he had no jurisdie- tion in cases where the title of land was brought into question.

In aneat little cottage, located near new street that runs to the bot- toms, south of the brewery, lives Peter Rasmussen, a Dane, About two months ago, a young man named Simonson arrived in this city from Denmark, and becoming acquainted | with Rasmussen, he began boarding at his house, He worked at nothing, but seemed to have plenty of money, as e always paid his board bills promptly. Now Rasmussen, who is middle-aged man, had wife, young,being but twenty-si ars of age, comely and fuir to look upon. Rasmussen is a laboring man, and during his absence through the day and at other times, Simonson courted his wife, and as the sequel shows, succeded in gaining comple session of her fickle o “When the cat,saway the mice | play,” was true in this case. Last week Mrs, Rasmussen in- formed her husband that she was tired of Omaha, and wanted to go somewhere else, She desired to see the great city of Chicago. In fuet, she wanted to leave her husband, although she did not tell him so in | a direct way. At last, he concluded to let hergo, and rather than have his two litle daughters left upon his hands, he gave his wife $260 to take them with her, hoping that when she ha would return a contented woman, Saturday afternoon Mrs, Rasmus- #en took the train for Chicago, | poss ns, n has been in’| —— excells in her uccompanied by her discovered, by Simonson also, Yesterday morning Rasmussen | learned the fact of the elopement, and | during the day felt considerably | downshearted at the manner in which i he had been deceived and swindled.

The consequence was that during his travels he fell in with the fancy demi-monde, and hav- ing eight hundred dollars in pocket, he proceed- ed to apread himself, setting up the champagne liberally. Next morning the young man woke up, and upon regaining his senses found himself in a strange place, and his eight hundred dollars and his watch and chain van- ished like the dew beneath a summer morning’s sun, He told sev his friends of the aftair, and as his opinion that he must have been drugged and robbed. He did not know what to do about it, but finally concluded not to at- tempt to recover his money and watch, as by %0 doing he would ex- pose himself to the public, which he did not care to do.

We would respectfully state that the coal can not be deliv- ered at that price without actual loss to the dealer, and the only way it can be sold at the price advertised is by mixing it with the cheapest quality of coal received in this mar- ket.
