A Piece of Inhuman Cruelty to a Horse. A Case for {he S.P.C.A, We to-day learned the particulars of a serious cese of abuse of a horse, which resulted In the death cf the poor brate. Tt seems that on Sunday morning & man, whose name our informant did not know, went to Mr. Henry Homan's livery stable on Thirteenth street and hired a horse and bugey for the day, saying that he wanted to drive out about six miles in the coun- try. He drove off and was gone all .y and late in the evening was still numbored among the outs. Along towards midaight however, he returned leading the animal, has- ing stopped upon Sixteenth street somewhere and left the bugey, which the poor brute, it is supposed, was unable to drag further. The horse wasin a terrible condition, but was put in astall and everyattention paid to it until a few hours later it fell to the floor and expired. Itis supposed that for some rewson the fellow had literally driven the horse to death, which, if his reper:entations were cor- rect, must te within six miles of Omaha, Monday morning a war- rant was filed in police court sgainst the driver, but he hes not yet been found. Tt is proposed, if possible, to make him pey for the avimal, and parties who, although not connectel with the stable, were witnesees of the horse’s condition, do mot ropose to let the wmatter drop there. Mr. D. B. Houck, the azent of the S. P. C. A., wil be instructed to push the matter to the extremity of the Liw. THE FUGITIVE CAUGHT. Nels Jensen, the Douglas County Convjct, Retaken. Again Escapes and Againis Nabbed. The account of the escape of Nels Jensen, the Douglas county cone wvict, from the walls of the Nebraska te prison on Friday lust, is followed close by the story of his recapture in Cass county, and his retura to duranco vile. Deputy Warden Nobes, who wis in the city Monday i h, gave the re- porters a descripiion of the man, and authorized the announcement that a reward of 20 would be paid for his cipture, which, it turns out, had already been unknown to the ofti The story of the recapture is thus told: Ou Saturday evenivg the yeo- manry living in the vicinity of Ash- land were astonished to in their midst & man dressed, as they though’, in the latest style, a stripad suit, fu- miliar to the people of Lincoln and common at the penitentiary- He pissed farm sfter farm wnmoleste i, effccted and occasion lly stopped to quanch his thirst at one of the farm wells.

Among the offenders who were ar- raigned before Judge Hawes yesterd y morning were two “bums,” Jim Green snd Charles Murray, who had just served out a twenty days’ in jail. They were arrested on complaint of Harvey Kelly, better known as the whistler, whom they had besten up a terrible manner. It appears that the twomen went into a house on Ninth street which had recently been vacated by order of the council, but was occu- pied bya colored family. Some of the children had gathered up a few soda water bottles to sell, and with these deadly instruments an attack was made on Kelly, who was Iying down at the time. They knocked a hole in his head clubbed bim over the shoulders and used him up gener- ally. A woman in the same house charges them with robbery also. During the trial this mornivg one of the men interzupted Kelly, while he was testifying to call him & G—d— liar but was promptly set down on by the court and the two bruisers sent up to the county jail for forty daye, which the judge thinks will .t them out about dog days when the sun may get in its work on them. FOUR OF A KIND. May Leonard and Belle Chamber- lain, who fgured so conspicuously in t ereceut Bennett mock-marriagecis:, were again in court Monday evening They were of late bosom friends and boon compauions, but had a falling out, aud the former was arrested on the charge of her quondam frieud, who accused her of retaining some garments loaned her. The deputy- marshal was sent to bring the proper- ty ioto court, and produced a valise and three embroidered, short-sleeved linen garments, the latter being identified by Belle Chamberlaiu 8s her own. The fourth she claimed was occupied at the time by the defendant. The latter swore as positively that she had pur- chased the clothes herself and that they were hers. The judgs was puz- zled but finally declined to transfer the property to the claimant, and ad- vised the girls to eettle the be- tween them. This Miss Chamberlain said she wonld do inside of a month, and that the judge would hesr of it. From the fire in her eyes it was in- A SIGH, y With Which an Enumerator Expresses His Relief That ‘It is Finished. To the Editor of Tus Bxs. No one knows or appreciates, ex- | cept he has been an enumerator, what a volume of meauing, what a source of relief and gratification is found in the above phrase, ‘It is finished.” What is finished? The enumeration of our city. What asigh of relief and | contentment the erumerator emits as | he toros over his schedules and re- ceives his receipt from the supervisor of census. He is led to exclaim ia the | same strin as did the young lady who | had finished her education, “My du- ties are at last finished! Whata thank- | less and miserable job I have had!| What an ordeal T have just passed throug] The only wonder is that I have lived through it all and preserved my senses (census) and young appear- ance.” The work is thankless, because while we sro laboring for scientific, national, municipal aod individual in- terest; our work is made unpleasant and retarded by those who will be benefitted Ly it, and ought to aid us instead of throwing barriers in_our way Something 18 wrong, and I do not know who or what is at fault.

This methed is successfully used in Great Bri- The newspapers are ready to ! gratuitously advertise it, which lessens | the labor to a great degree, but 8o | many take no paper and are ignorant of the scheme and its object, that the work is exremely srduovs. The na- ture and multiplicity of the question propounded—if his subject be not of a tame dispositicn and -fl,machzd in | the polit st and mo-t affable mamner— | have a tendency to aggravate the uu favorable nnpression formed in the beginning «f his s-eming presump- tious intrusion. Even then, in many | cascs, ste (I use the feminme proncun practical y in opposition to the prin- ciples of gremmar) exclaima, “Tsn't | that an impudent question! Did you ever! Well, Luever! Id n't think , T'm obliged 1o answer all of the question-! What is it all about, any | wayl What good will accrae from Kuowing where my grand parents were borni” Al these qurstions wmust be ploasantly aud satisfactorily answered after he has crowded himself through a halt open door uninvited, past the form of a p female who fills the ouly entrance to the prenuses, or fail- ing in this, being repulsed by the hur- ly form at the door, who has taken ferred that she meant blood, and Miss Leonard wanted to “‘swear her lifo” against her, but departed on the judge's promise to order armed iuter- ference in case of a threatened crisis. MINOK OFFENSES. Hugh Shields who was arrested yesterday for catting a mana week age last Sunday, has his trial set for tr-day. The charge against him is assault with a deadly weapon with wtent to kill. Cyrus Smith swore vut a complaint at the police court last evening aga 8 colored brother, “‘Chimucy S Johnson, for calling him bad names.

Nothing dnunted he started in pursuit, and recsptured his man mn the edge of Cass county, and took him to Lincoln yesterday morning, and this evening he is again within the walla of the prison.

Enquire of Dr. Edwards, 1100 Farnham strcet. is213 conscious of the strain upon the spinal clumn until reminded of it in trying to rise from his couch rext morniog. In this graceful artitude he explains all about h-w the ceneus of the United Statos is a political necessity, as rep- res ntative power in congress is based upon it. The mixed frm of our g vernment —established by our con- stitution,—(the only form which was possibl: by which the pre-exisring states maintained their right to exis- tence, and to act for themeelves in sll strictly national, affaira), while for all natioval purposes p.litical power is to be exeroised iy a double rule; partly throuzh the states acting as a single body and partly according to popul tion, irrespective of state lines—posi: tively requircs, not as a means of ad- ministrative cfficacy, but as an esson- tial condition of its own existence, that the inhabitants of the United Staies should be periodically enume- rated. Meanwhile the wire screen on the door lends enchantment to the scene, giving the form behind it the appearaice of a tableau, or of & statue of Diana all of which i admired by him who has plon'y of time to contemplate such sceies, besides his mind is ina condition to fully appreciate the use- ful and the b autiful. The t-rm ‘‘census had its origin in Rome, where a group of the many functions performed by the high offi- cer called the “‘censor’ received the Dame crnsus Ao enumg ion of the people was one of them, but they were chiefly of a statistical character, The firat census in the United States was taken in 1790, the returns all be- ing referred to the trstof Auguat. To 1830 the enumeration was fixed on the first of Juue, which change made the interval between 1820 and 1830 nine years and ten magths, thereby reducng the ratio of increase two- thirds of one per cent. The first en- lurgement of the scope of the census was in 1810, when the agents were by law requued to take an account of the tevers] manufacturing establishments. Again in 1850 it was en)arged so as to 1nciude the several subjects of moral- iy, ngriculture and productive ind Y. Axit bas widened it has weak- encd; more has been put upon the enumerator thau he could well carry; lus attention has been distracted by the multitude of subjec's presented; the great number of inquiries has per- plexed and irritated the body of citi zens, which protracts the canvass and rendera theceneus proper eri; pl-d and impaired. Forcseeing this the super- vicor of the present census withdrew ai the thirtsenth hour the manufac- | turing schedule from the enumerator. “I+ is finished,” and well and faith- fully did we do our work. We had } taken a solemn oath to let no (guilry) one escape. The satisfaccry result shows how well we sustained oath. Before the canvass hai beguu, many wiscacres, prophy chronic_gromblers—always ready to find fault, and give their opinion be- fore being asked, bever pleased with anything, satisfied with nothing, whose very existence depands upon grumbling—predicted that the enumeratcrs were a set of numbsculls and would not resch one half of the population of our city. After these Prognosticators have prognosticated it grieves them very much, to have things turn out differen ly, even if the consummation of it would plunge then into utter ruin, as their reputa- tion in that line is forever blasted. So in this case, the population of Omaha went beyond the most san- guine expeotations of all, which is a deathblow to all faultfinders. In conclusicn T would say that the enu merator should be placed in the same category with the soldier who has fought to redeem his country from tyranny and oppression. A lasting ‘monument of marble should be erected to his memory, emblazoned with let- ters of gold; h's name should be handed down to posterity and rank in history with the signers of the Declaration of Independence.
