A Superhuman Struggle, with Muscle Pitted Against Powder and Lead. And the Son of Solomon Wins . the Battle, Our dispatches Tuesday con- tained an account of an intensely ex- citing encounter ending in a tragedy, which ozcurred about 9 o'clock Mon- day night at the farm house of Daniel Solomon, local attorney for the Wa- bash, St. Louis and Pacific railway, ten milessouth of Hastings, Towa. Mr. Solomon was away from home at the time cf the tragedy, and his son had Monday afternoon sold 2500 bushels of corn, for which ke had been paidin c It is supposed that this { fact became known outside of the family, and resulted in ight at- tack which could only have been made for the purpose of plunder. Mr. and Mre. Solomon usually occu- pied a front room on the Sirst flcor as s bod room, but during the absence { of tNe family Mre. S. had gone into | an sdjoining room to sleep with the #30 young children. The family had been in bed but & short time, and had not yet gone to eleep, when Mra. S. and her son Lo- san, who slapt up stairs, both heard the front door open. Logan is a youth of but eightecn years of aga, but is a giant in etrenzth, and has aa unlimited amount of pluck. On hearing the noise he arose and quietly slipped down the enclozed stairway opening out iufo the hall, when he heard the fullowing conversation bstween two men: “Does anybody sleep in the other r.om!" asked the first. “No,” replied the second, “I think not.” Upon this Logan jumped from the stairway into this rocm, in which voices were lieard, when one of the robbers fired in the direction of the sound, the report of his pistol being followed instantly by twoshots from his accom- plice. Noneof the shots took effact, how- ever, on him. Another moment the heroic boy was engaged ina hand to hand struggle with both villains. With a superhuman effrt he threw one of theu across the room and getting the head of the other under his arm, he took his pistol from him and shot him through the head, killing him instantly. He dropped the life- less body of his asssilant to the floor and throwing the pistol down started fora neighbor's house and informed him of what he had done. They both returned to the scene, and, lighting a lamp, were horified to find that 1he viciim was a well known lad of the neighborhood. The other man on being 8o roushly handled by Logan picked himself up aud fled. The dead man was Steve Wiliford, who was but 18 yoars of age, and who bad alwags hitherto borne & good reputation He was a farm laborer, employed by a Mr. Ayers, near Solomon's place and had brothers working in Pottawattamie county. They were informed of the fate of their brother yesterday afternoon, and proceededat once to the scene. They say the boy had no busivess to ba found in Solo- mon’s house, On the « rences Wil two ternoon of these occur- rd wes seen at Solomon station, an embryo town about a mile | the m M'CRARY'S MANDATE. The Union Pacific Railway Must No Longer Oppose Force to Law, The Omaha & Southwestern May Cross Over to the Promised Land. Any Other View Would be Dis- astrous to Nebraska's Prosperity. Oour citizens well remember the war i which ensued a few months ago in the attempt of the Omaha & Southwestern railway to cross the Union Pacific track at the foot of Howard street, in order to convest the B. & M. in Nebraska with the 0. & N. N. railway, the southera division of the new St. Paul and Omsba line. Both parties re- sorted first to force and afterwarda to law. Tujuncticn and counter-injunc- tion followed, until the legsl status of er was lost in the mazes of legal technicality, Frow that time to the present, how- ever, the Union Pacific has kept a watch on its cunning adversary, and every fiight a car and often a whole train, was run down over the disputed track and wa'chmen kept on duty from dark to dawn. Yesterday Ccl. Watson B. Smith, clerk of the United States circuit court, received the opinion of Judge McCrary in the case in question, which came before him on a motion to dissolve the injunction restraining the B. & M. and 0. & S. W. from making the crossing. The opivion f Judge McCrary ro- cites Driefly the circamstances und-r which the case has come into court. The complainant owns and operate the Union Pacidic railroad, extending from the Missourl river westward across the state, and the defendants | own and operate a line from Omaha to | Lincola. The 0. & S. W. de- siring to extend their track across that of the U. P. for the purpose of connecting with the Owmaha and Northera Nebraska rail- way company instituted proceedings | under the law of Nebraska in the | roper state ccurt, for the purpose of aesessing the damages occurring to the complainant on account of the cross- ing of its track, and also for the further purpose of designsting the puint at which ssid cressig should be wade, and the manner of crossiug. Commissioners were appointed as required by the statutes, and sfter being qualified proceeded in_the per- formance of their duties and report- ed as follows: *“That said_crossing shall be made in the east part of lot No, 7, in block 156, in_the city of Omshs, as shown in the plat marked exhibif “A." That the mwmner of said cressing shall be an sngle of 58 deg. 58 m., upon a crade even with that of the Union Pacific_railway's track at that point, and with steel temp'ates four inches in width, with two snd on--half inches in wid'h of head, or ssory to make a gocd ng ot that point. “That the compersation to be paid to the Union Paciiic railway company forsuch crossing shail be $1000. “All of which is respectfuily sub- mitted. (Sizued) GEoreE Suira Micuaer Do CuarLes TURNER, The Union Pacific claimed that the proceedings in condemnation were void, upon several grounds First—It is claimed that inssmuch as the complaivant’s fra chize is de- rived from the United States no state legislation is valid which provides for condemnng the right of way for an- other ralrond across ita right of way and track. The court holds upon this point that the right of way of the U. P. R. . is the property of the company, ac- trom the Solomon farm on the W., St. L. & P road. The man was seen to writs two postal cards and put them in the postoffice at Solomon. It is thought tho! this man wae Wiliford's accomplice. Mr. Solomon and the sheriff of Mills county were telegraphed for. The sheriff drove from Hastings to the scene of the tragedy, and is now on the track of o stranger seen with Wiliford yes- terday. The lad Logan is at work o the farm again, not at all distucbed Dy his justifiabls desd, He ssys he had his mother and sisters to defend, and would do the same again. These additional facts were learned by a Bex reporier who came from the scene of the fatal affair yesterday. LADIES sale will continue this at 7 o'clock, at Mrs. W. B. arlor Baza A Card.

Secoud —The Union Pacific com- pany claims that the statute under which the action is brought applies only to demestic railway corporations and such foreign corporations as might by state legislation be author- ized to extead their s into the state. Upon this point it is held that the statute in terms applies to every rail- roed company. That it is not to be presnmed that it was_intended to ex- empt the Union_ Pacific railway from the operation of the act, since to do 80 would be to prohibit the crossing of irsline by other roads, and chus to prevent the operation of an unbroken line of railways connecting between northern aud southern Nebreska. Third—The company insists that the award of the commissioners is void because only four of the six commis- sioners concurred in signing it, al- though all took part in the proceed- ings and deliberations, The ccurt is of the opinion on this point that where authority is vested in three or more persons to determine a public ques: tion, or matter of put concern a majority-kevapower to do R~ Gide, provided all act on the matter. Tf tho matter be one of private concern all must concur unless provision is made fora decision by a less number. That the condemnation of the right of way in the exercise of the power of eminent domain is a public mat- ter, within the rule, is mot only clear, under the authorities, but also upon principles, since the pro- ceedings cau be justified only on the ground that the land should be taken for public use and for the public in- terest. The motion {o dissolve the injunc. tion is sustained. Real Estate Tranfers. Jchn H. Kellom and wife, to Al- fred R. Dufreue: w. d., post lot 3, Capital addition, city of Omaha— $600. Charles C.

Exerer, Fillmere Co., Neb., July 25.—This s a town situated in Fill- the Saline county line. Exeter is mid- way between Friend on the east and Fairmont on the west, and therefore propases to hava a future; it certainly has a fair present; it is in thecentre of a splendid sgricultural country, and is the farmers to ocecure tbeir small grains. The crops of wheat and are altogether ahead of expectation. Two monthsago I was here, aud it then seemed doubtful if there would be even & half crop, but the rains came and everything obanged for the better, gratn is plump and straw weli filled. Moreover the harvest weather |is very favorable; toall appearance { 1ot & bushel of geain will be lost by wet or mildew. The corn crop here, 23 everywhere in Nebraska, is simply splendid, and an immense breadth of it. The population of Eseer is_sbout 500; it has & newspaper (The Enter- pris-) and two banking-houses—one | ownd by Claveland and the other by S. P. Wallace & Co. There are be- sides twenty-one dry goods, bardware stores and groceries; three quile ex- tensive implement atores and yards, three euperior grain elevators, two lumber yards—one owned by Tidlan & Fuller, of Crete, and the other by H. H. Allen, late of Havana, There are three churches that have good build- i holic, Baptist Congregationalist. Alto, one first. class hotel and one saloon. The place has always been_strong for temper- ance, and saloonists are timid about putting in an sppearance. Towns spring up so rapldly aud grow so fast, that many pecplo who have not very lately passed over the B. & M. will be surprised at the sketch 1 have made, and at the lsrge amount of produce and goods thus changing hands in Exeter;and this must rapidly incre The p'ace is losing two citizens who had much to do with making it whet it is. Mr. Dolon, lumber and coal dealer, sold out to Tidlan & Faller, and starts a bank in the Republican Valley, while H. 8 Smith is_closing out bis dry goods business from il health but will re- main here. Looking in all directions from Exeter and seeing such a vast sweep of rich prairie yet untouched by the plow you wonder where sll the farmers come from that crowd the stree!s and do business here. The fact is there is a large amount of territory to be conquered yet, but immigration is steadily sett- lingin in this directin, and Exeter has a large growth yet befcro it. The founder of Exeter is Warren Woodward. He took a homertead in 1870. Ths following year Dr, H. G. Smith homesteaded the quarter seo- tion on which Exeter stands. The same year S. W, Davis and Babeock homesteaded. ~ All these men have done well and become rich. Wood- ward kept the first pablic houss in this county. Dr. Smith opeoed the second stand west of Crote. At that duy there was nothing here but brok- ou prairie. Two years after the B. & M. R. R. run their lines, but six yesrs ago only had a p'atform for » depot. The place is resliy but sbout four vears old. In the beginning of 1878 Tom Waith, a mau who will make h's mark, started The Eaterprise, which is atrong republicar, and deiog & good busiess. Two years ago Sanfore Williams and Lew Rober & n, activa business men, coms here 'rom Illinois and claim that the place has doubled in that time, Mr. Williams sel's implements, and has sold double the am unt of stuck this year that be sold last year; sltbough in May everyihinz locked very dis couraging.

Appea! for Cleanliness, To the Editor of Tu Bax. Anarticlo in The Hersld this morn- ing on filth in streets and slleys is a very important one. Every family should have a barrel to throw garbage in snd keep it covered until the scav- enger comes with his cart and takes it away. This throwing elop and decay- ing vegetables from the kitchen into the streets and alleys must be stopped by the strong hand of the law, if peo- ple will be 80 careless. In all eastern cities there is a fine of 810 for each and every cffence of this kind., If this habit of throwing swill in the streets and alleys is not _stopped we may expect & larger death rate than lasi month and July.
