Correspandence of The lee Ny Ciry, After loaving ) ent had a bong moonlight ride towards , Ootobe your correspond the northwest, The trains here are mixed (froight and passenger) so that the time made was slow enough to allow all the taking of the wayside notes, For the first fow miles the corn was like a young grove and the yield must be immense, then hay stacks thickened and houses became scarce. Gillespie, Antelope and Ford, young station towns, were passed and then came the wild praivie, The bluffs that heretofore lined the Elkhorn Valley were leveled into an almost imperceptible slope, the grass grew short the black top soil covered astratum of coarse sand and cattle were found in corrals that held hundreds of them. Ford, Hart and Tnman’s Grove, vil- Inges that sprang up at the snort of the iron horse, were left behind, and in the midst of & odld misty rain we left the train, for we had arrived at O'KEILL CITY. It is on a high plateau a hundred yards north of the box car depot that is now serving its purpose until the fine two-story depot can be finished, There are, no sidewalks in O’Neill, and there is no hack, so through the slush we tramped. There is no mud here, and there never is any; the #oil is not of that kind. The hotel was crowded to its utmost capacity; for O'Neill, although it has three hotels, is still in need of more, In the morn- ing asurvey of the land was made and the prospect was mixed, cveryone was in a hurry. The streets were filled with people attired in every way that circumstances would allow. The cow- boy, with jingling spurs, leather breeches and broad-brimmed, gold- bordered, white hat, the government mule Skinner trailed five yards of whip, and the lhonest farmer with patched overalls, and the business man with the éustomary suit of neu- tral hue, made up the picture. Womon and children were not numerous, the houses were scattering and made no architectural pretentions. The sur- rounding plains were largely untamed by the plow, and mentally 1 said, “‘Ranger, old boy, you have brought your pigs to a bad market.” About this time I met the original author of this settlement, M Patrick Fahy, formerly of Lincoln, and hs welcomed the representative of Tur BeEk with that hearty good will characteristic of the true Irish gentleman. Then I called on the court house officials and found them busy with their respect- ive duties, and calculating ugon their chane?s in the democratic convention which was due that afternoon. “1f ye are a republican paper, faith but ye are sound on the monopoly goose, and the wrongs of ould Ireland, and that is more than I can say for Doc Miller and the dirty Republican, and if ye'll put my name on ye'r list 1'll ou for a year, and I guess you'll find 'uE BEE has many a friend in the city of O'Neill.” Thus the overture opened and the Irish heart and hand, and purse was open too and from moreing 'till night Theard nothing but words of praise and encouragement from these noble pioneer Irishmen. SUCCESS. There is not, it is claimed, any Irish colony in the United States that has met with so few discouragements or thay has prospered so well from the very outset, True it is that standing in O'Neill one would think that he was surrounded by a wild uncultivated dis- trict, but if he goes half a wile north- east, where the top of the slope is reached, ho will find in front of hun miles of as fine cottage and grove dot- ted prairie as tho eye could wish to be- hold, and the waving corn with its golden ears beckons to the millions beyond the sea, and the breezes tell that the land is free, HUSINESS, Every store was crowded and every clerk und the proprietors busy in furn- ishing the people and taking in the money. . Carpenters ripped and rapped with saw and hammer and one house that had no oxistence outside the lumber rml was finished and occupied’ in ten hours from the time that I saw the first corner brick laid. And yet in spite of all this every one was ready to snatch a few valuable moments, enough at least to subscribe for Tur ‘Beg, speak some words of kindly wel- come and wish success to the paper, and whennight came and work ceased, ‘because there was no one that we had not called on, T was astonished to find that the rough and unpretentions frontier town had given a larger re- turn in cush dollars than I had ever before received for one day’s subscrip- tion work, Who says that an Tush- man is ungrateful!

Tiuk Beg was an advoeace for the rights of Treland, hence Ivishmen were not un- grateful, but remembered it with theix patronage.

O'Neill and after leaving the rail it is hauled in wagons to its destination, THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION was held while I was in town, Every precinct in the county was represent- od. After preliminary business Mr. J. Sullivan was unanimously nomi- nated for the office of county comuis- sioner. He is the present chairman of tho board. Mr. M. D, Long was then nominated without a dissenting voice for the oftico of county treas- urer. M., Baswoll was honored with the clerkship; Mr. Hodgkins with the county superintendency, and Mr. Esteps with tha county surveyorship. T. R. Van Valkenburg was made a candidate for county judge, and Jas. Crowley was put in nomination for sheriff, The following resolutions were then introduced: Resolved 1. That in the death of James A. Garfield this union of states has suffered a loss which scems almost irreparable. A great and good man, a faithful public servant, and one free from sectional bias, has becen removed to that bourne ‘‘from whence no trayeler roturns.” Be it further Resolved 2. That the democratic party of Holt county in convention assembled sincerely sympathize with the family of our late illustrious presi- dent, statesman and citizen in their sore affliction. Be it Resolved 3. That the Holt county Rocord be requested to publish these resolutions as the sentiment of the democratic party of Holt county in convenpion assembled. These resolutions were adopted by a rising vote every man standing solemnly for some seconds as if offer- ing up a prayer for the repose of the noble general’s soul. It was a sceno that 1 never before witnessed in a political gathering. Both the republican and democratic tickets are said to be exceptionally good, and while I hope the republican ticket will win, still it is scarcely to be expected, and the names given above are probably the names of the future Holt county ofticials, and judging the f view of their ex- terior I surmise that Holt county will not be in bad hands, Icannot close this letter without returning thanks to Mr, Fahy, whoso nobly assisted me, and may his f: his colony, his town and his real estate business flourish as well as T wish them to, When next I visit O'Neill T shall write a short history of the town and surrounding colonies.

A Parisian Yuvention to Guard Beaunty frexn the Rays of the Moon New York World, The latest freak of Visitors at the fashion is the French paralun benclies daring the last ammer were surprised at seein any ladies, while wander in i weoups, on the qanas under the moo by earrying their parasols, not up 1 walking-canes, but expanc their heads a to protect them from the ray won - Great was the surprise t they were not reall t paralunes, The par indicates, performs a similar offics to that of the parasol ~the one guards against the sun, the other t the moon. Th inventors of the paralune assert that the effect of the moon's ys on the complexion is very deleterions, The plimpest facss, they say, will grow thin, and the delieate peach bloom of the check will pale and hecome yellow when long subjected to the action of the moon’s rays. Not alone will the bt it will also be- od. © The only o prevent this is, of course, the paralune, . The paralune resembles the common sol, except that it is co thin, transparent silk g * best suited to t vearer's com- Those most commonly used are pink, as the color lends n soft tint to the complexion, which loses its natural color under the pale licht of the moon. 1he framework is light, as a wind has not the same fatal effect on the gauze as on a solid silk web, The handles are light and delicately carved, The casings are generally made of silk, similar in color to that of the paralune. They were high- priced last scason, us but very few were made, Dealers in fancy goods in this city have notas yet heard of this latest invention, ‘L'wo or three of the lead- ing importers had read about the article in the French papers, but their agents on the other side had not sent them any in their invoices, and it was the general opinion that the fashion had not as yet taken so firm a hold on the Freuch world as to warrant its introduction in America. A member of a firm of importers told a World reporter yesterday that he had recent- ly returned from Paris, where he had been making purchases for the fall trade. His attention had been called to an article about the paralune in one of the Parisian fashion journals, and he had examined it with great min- uteness. He had not purchased any, as he considered 1t rather carly to ex- pend money for next summer’s stock of goods. He said: “‘I expect they will be in great de mand during the next season in France, but it will probably take an- other year before American ladies sport their paralunesat Newport and Long Branch, That they will become fashionable at the seaside I doubt, but I have the most sanguine hopes that they will be generally seen on our streets in the near future. The rea- son for my thinking so is the general adoption of the electric light in the strevts, theatres, hotels, and restau- rants. An interesting series of articles which appeared in The World a short time ago spoke of the deleterious cffects of that light upon the complexion of some and the eyesight of all pecople. Now the par- alune will be the very article for use at mght when one will have to liye in a perfect blaze of electuicity. I shall await advices from Paris in order to seo if the paralune becomes common in the streets there, and if it does, I shall not have the slightest hesitation in having a case of them sent to me, They will probably cost a good deal at first, while they are fashionable, and until some ‘Imported ones’ are manufactured in the Bowery. When they come to be coveréd with mosqui- to netting and used by the shop-girls, , | fashionable ladies will probably for- get that they were ever invented. Replovin alWifo. Saginaw (Mich.) News. Recently Dell Wright, of Otsego County, married a young daughter of A, M. Randolph. She claimed to have been forced into the marringe by Mr Wright and his friends, and in less than an hour after the ceremony was per- formed the youug bride struck out ~ for her father's house, declaving that she would neverlive with him, The husband sought legal advice from an attorney at Gaylord, who ad- vised the husband to replevin the way- ward wife, Accordingly the two men geeded to a Justice of the Peace, Aundrews filled out the nec sary blanks, The husband made oath to them, swearing, sinong other things that the young woman was of the value of $1€0, and did not exceed that value, the proper goods, chattles and property of Dell Wright, the pluintiffin the suit; that she was unlawfully detained from his possesion by A. M.” Randolph, her father, and that said Dell Wright was then entitled to the possession of her; that the said woman Iluul not heen tal for any tax, assessment ov fine, etc,, according to the usual form for affida- vits in the replevin of property. The Justice issued his writ, and it was delivered to the sheriff of the county, whoat once proceeded to the father's he where he found the “‘chattle scribed in his writ of re. levin, The offi nmanded M, lu\mlulph in the of the County of Otsego, Mich., by virtue of the of- fice of Under Sheriff theveof, to sur- render the wife of Dell Wright."” After considerable remonstrance on the part of the wife and her father, the officer seized “‘the property named,” and duly delivered to My, Wright, twenty miles distant from where he made the siezure and received his fees anounting to §18 Whereupon Mrs, Wright informed her better half that she was freeborn and half white, and was going home, and ed again for her father'’s house She was recaptured on the v the officer, but managed again se, and finally reached her fathers ouse once more.
