A Misunderstanding Between Two Actors Settled in the Ring. Five Rounds Fought and the Contest Declared a Draw. Business and Not Buncombe the Order of the Day. morning rumors of an encounter, whick was to take place | during the day between two well known theatrical men of this city, were widely circulated and excited much curiosity on the part of the | eporting fraternity in gencral and the reportorial corps in particular. A representative of Tne Bee had the good fortune to drop on the item and as a preliminary to a more thorough appreciation of the engagement at arms, he inquired of a friend of the parties’ what the cause of the intended contest was. It ap- pears that the trouble originated over a professional dispute which occurred on Friday. The parties who had ar- ranged to figure in the arena were J. W. Dalton, stage manager at the St. Elmo, and Hagh McNanny, a jig dancer. Some misunderstanding had srisen between the two and on Friday night McNanny missed his term to d? the jig, for which, ac- cording to the rule of the establish- ment, he was fined, but was let off with §2 instead of §5, the customary amount. This angered McNanny who proceeded to go for Dalton aud Saturday evening ran him off the stage into an adjoining room. Dalton ap- pealed to Manager Nugent, who told McNauny thai if he couldn't stand the thing he bad better close with him and McNanny agreed there and then 1o close his enzagement, Dalton however told him that if he was 50 anxious to fight he would give hima_chance at any time and place agreeable to him. The proposition met with favor aud it was agreed to weet at 2 p. m. Sunday and diive to a retired epot in the suburbs and there test the question of who was {he best man by a fight la Heenan aud Say- ers. Pursuant to this agreement the partics met ac the St. Elmo at 20'clock Sunday sfternoon, and heving se- cured a hack the principals entered, taking their seconds and referee with them, and drove rapidly to a_epot in the vicinity of the White Lead works. On the way their friends tried to rec- oncile the difficulty and get pair to make it up, but it was no g at the location selected, an pen space in the midst of the brush, and about three blocks from the Nail Waorks, the part hted. It includ- ed, beside Dalton and McNanny, Jack Nugent, who was chosen as sec- ond by the former, and Billy McCune by the latter, and Jim Connolly, se- lected to act as referee. The quintette hastenened from the carriage to the site picked out for the the THE PAY-ROLL PROTEST. A Pathetic Tear-Stained Document Fulminated for the Sake of Harmony, And Endorsed by Gould's Dragoons of Every Rank and Station, Wiereas, We have vainly appealed to the republican county central com- mittee, for the sake of harmony and success, to retrace their steps and abandon the unholy scheme that in- fringes upon the divine right of Jay Gould to control the nominations of the republican party in Douglas county, and, Whereas, Tt cannot be claimed for a moment that the central committee can arrogate to itself the power to ap- point judges and clerks of election, and thus depriveus of our inafienable right to appoint such judges by a rab- ble of repoaters, tramps, democratic bummers, section hands, gravel-train men and bulldozed laborers from the U. P. yards; and, Whereas, The committee has no power to deprive Pete Murphy's dem- ocratic gang of their right to voteat the fifth ward republican poll as many times as they sce fit to doso, much less can such committee put the col- ored waiters at Markel’s Dillonville hotel on the black list as non-resi- dents, thus making it possible for the scoundrels who oppose Jay Gould to perpetuate themselves in powerin the central committee; and, Wiercas, The exercise of such arbi- trary power would destroy our chances to send a delegation to tho next legis lature from Douglas county that wil do Jay Gould’s bidding and serve the interests of the Union Pacific railroad; and, Whereas, The last legislature, after it was lubricated with U. P. passes and cther valuable favors, did, by the kind advice of that pure and patriotic statesman, John M. Thurston, cxempt our depots, depot grounds, machine shops, headquarters bulldings, and other valuable property, from local taxation; and, Wi as, The outrageous registra- Bohemian Rosewater, threatens us with a repeal of these tax therefure, we most emphatically pro- test and remonstrato against who should be fired out of the repub- lican camp for the sake of harmony, which is so desirablo in this crisis. —_— - Tue Bre is reliably informed that this protest was signed by Mr. Thomas tion plot concocted by that scheming seriously exemption laws which would disrupt and rend asunder all the ties that bind us to the great republican party; thie villainous scheme and we denounce the said Rosowater as a public enciny RIVER RIPPLES. The Steamer Key West Severs Capt. Porter’s Cable. A Lively Day on the River Front. The river front presented the liver liest appearance Sunday morning that it has worn for many months. The steam ferryboat **Undine,” Capt. Cowles, began her regular trips toand from the Towa side, an easy and safe landing having been constructed at the foot of Douglas street and another opposite the smelting works. Capt. Porter’s ferry and the barge were busy and a whole fleet of small sail and row boats skimmed over the wa- ter like birds of passage. At 6 o'clock in the morning the Key West arrived bound down the river. The Key West is a large stern whoel steamer 208 feet in length and 33 feet breadth of beam, She went up the river in 1877 and had neverre- turned siaco, having been engaged in freighting between Bismarck and Fort Benton. In this work she made four trips this season, the last one being accomplished in nine days' time, a distance of over 1000 miles. She ls officered as follows: Captain Maratta; pilot, James Smith; engincer, John Mirtin. The Key West left Yankton last Friday morning arriving at Sioux City, 140 milos, that evening. She left Sloux City at 4 o'clock Saturday morning and at § o’clock in the eve- ning tied up for the night at Florence. In comiug into the port here she ran into Capt. Porter's heavy wire cable, cutting iz in two like a thread and droppig it into the water. The offi- cers did not know the cable was thero and did not see it until too late toavoid theaccident. Thederricks passed under in safety, but the stacks were aboat & foot too high and caused the accident. No damage was dove to the hoat. The steamer rounded to and landed and a man was sent to moasure the helght of the U. P. bridge above the water. It was found to be b8 feet, tly the height of the stacks which were thereupon lowered a few feet. There was no frelght or passengers on celock the boat the river to Dodge street, aceful, sweeping curve in the river, headed for the channel be- tween the two west piers of the bridge and sped between them like an arrow, on her way to St. Louis, where she will tio up for the present.

The Omaha Knights Templar who had not already gone, or determined to go Sunday, left for Chicago at 6 o'clock yesterday morning, taking & special train over the bridge at b o'clock. They were but thirty-five or forty in number, but were accompa- nied by a number of ladies, At the transfer they were joined by a score or more of Lincoln- Knights, who came In on the O. & R.

The Ne- braska aud Council Bluffs Kuights left at 6:30 on a special Rock Island train. A special train over the North western took a portion of the Towa battallior, COLORADO CeMMANDERY No. 1. At3 o'clock Sunday afternoon a special train of four Pullmau’s, one day-coach and one baggage-car, ar- rived over the Union Pacific with the grand commandery of Colorado, es- oorted by Colorado Commandery No. 1, of Denver, which included in its number by special Invitation ~Sir Knights of Leadville, Georgetown and Central.

The cars wero handsomely trimmed with flags, with the arms of the grand commandery suspended at the THE CHIVALRIC HOSTS |ONLY THREE DAYS MORE, SPECIAL NOTICES, And Registration of Republi- can Voters Will Close. A Duty Which Every Honest Republican Owes to Him- self and the County, Only three days more remain for the registration of republicans under regulations adopted by the county cen- tral committee. The desperate effort which the Union Pacific managers aud their organ are making to defeat this reform is the best proof of ita utility in the interest of the people. Every republican who wants an honest ex- pression of our party through the del- egates to the state convention aud the eandidates who are to represent us in the next legislature, should have him- solf enrolled on the registration list. Nobody can be registered unless he makes a personal application to the registrara, For the convenience of all classes of republicans four rezistration offices have been opened, viz: At Ferguson’s drug store, corner Twelfth and Douglis; Parr's drug store, Tenth and Howard; Roeder’s drug store, corner Webster and Six- teenth; and Titus’ drug store, Thir- teenth streot. The hours of registration at all these places will be from 10 a. m, to 1 p. m.; 3p.m. todp m,snd7todp m Onana, August 16, 1880. To the Elitor of the Bee. Tam nearlya stranger in this city having lately taken up my residenco here. But T have beon watching your con- troversy with The Republican on the subject of registration at primaries with considerable interest. Tamin no way interested and am not a voter, although a republican, ies, have no feelings of like or dislike, ar leaning, or prejudice towards either party. So I think I may safely de- clare myself wholly impartial. Now, as an imparttal spectator, will you allow me to express my honest opinion on the subject, which is this: I cannot for my life discover, sides and rear. The party numbered 68 Knights and 35 ladies, and left Denver by a special train at 1:30 p.m. Saturday. At the Bluffs the delega- tion was attached to a special train on the Rock Island road drawn by a magnificently decorated engine, and including, with other cars, an elegant new dining car just built by the company, and called the “Grand Pacific.” The decorations were all of a Templar character, the cross and crown, snd the motto, side and back on the Usdine, and found the same very pleasant.

The in declined to adjust their difficulties by arbitration, and after shaking hands they oponed out on the first round. This round did not last long beforo McNanny knocked Dalton down, and got the first blood. e second round Dalton got in cll-directed blow on his opponent, knocking McNanuy off his pins. The latter, however, did uot fall, but caught himself, and after shakinz hands time was called for the Third Round.— This time McNanny got one in on Dalton's left optic and putitin mourning. Dalton got ina blow on auny’s ribs and put his thumb out of joint and sprained his hand. He fought all the same, how- ever, and this round lasted 14 min- utes, and was the best of the five. The fourth round oniy lasted about four mivutes and McNanny came out best. The fifth round begun and was con- tinued vigorously for about five min- utes when a hack hove in sight and it was suspicioned that it contained a possoof police. The combatants were separated and made to ro treat into a secluded spot where their clothes were brought and they were assisted to drees, the fight being de- clared oft. three quarters of an hour and was a draw fight, although Dalton got a lit- tie the worst punished, -m account of his hand aud eye. McNanny hit Dal- ton in the ribs once and tore his thumb nail off down to the quick. Both ware pretty well punished fora scrub fight. They ehook hands every round and when they quit shook again, called it square and tooka drink together.

They say the blows were heard at the wagon road, sounding like pistol shots.
