A Case of Reflned Brutality by Policemen, Preahyterian Church Celebration and Other Toplos. SHEER BRUTALITY. HOW SOME POLICEMEN WALTREATED A BOY. Jonsiderable excitement was ore ated on Broadway yesterday aftor- noon. A boy, who gave his name as Reardon, and claiming to hail from Boston, was pulled in on a dispatch received by Chief Field, to be on the look-out for a young man of light complex black hair, The boy's hair was brown instead of black, and otherwise did not come up to the standard. He had a tooth very prom- inently filled with gold, which would have casily identitied him, yot no men- tion was made of this fact, Well, ho was taken to headquarters. Chief Fiold and Ofticer Morse examined the do- scription, also the boy, and they could not reconcile the two. They then ro- quested the boy to identify himself, He gave them a name and the street and number in Chicago where ho had been employed. Not satisfied with' the boy's statement, they left him in charge of Officer Barhyto while they went down to the office to send word of inquiry to Chicago. Mr. Barhyte ote, kept his eye on the boy, and having entered into con- versation with him, he invited Beardon into the calaboose where he could taik to him privately. No soon- er had they reached the room than the boy, seeing the back door wide opon, shoved Barhyte to one side and mado his eacape, scaling the wall. He went towards Prince streoct, thence up (ilendale over Bicrdsley's fence and ensconcod himself in a clump of bushes behind the outhouse. Of course Barhyte gave the alarm and any one would have supposed that the M¢t. Pleasant asylum had been opened and its contents poured into our eity. After a little chase Officor Brooks and Jesse Walters came upon the young man who had a revolver in his hand to defend himsslf if need be. - Brooks drew his und demanded the youth to | surrender. ““Whathave I done!” said the boy. ‘‘Never mind,” said Brooks; *‘get over the fence or 1 will pat a ball through your heart.” Thinking that that organ would be somewhat affectad in that event, the boy got over the fenco. Jesse Walters grabbed the revolvor out of his hand ayd they had him. Soon Barhyte appeared on tho scene, and a crowd pitched on un- til the boy became frantic, and being possessed with a litt'e more sand than Barhyte and Brooks had been in the halnt of finding in their coffee, they had about all they could do with the assistance of of a huge club to knock the boy a'most senseless and get him into cluse confinement. After he got the two in the back room he again tried to whip them, but Brooks’ club appeared on the scene, aund with sev- eral blows upon the head, Brooks got him in& condition so that Barhyte could pound him without any danger. We shall no doubt hear to-day what crime the boy has committed. THE PRESBYTERIANS. THEY CELEBRATE THEIR TWENTY-FIFTH ANNIVERSARY, The quarter centennial of the Pres- byterian church was celobrated Wednesday evening in their edifice in this cily. The church was crowded and hundreds were unuable to procure soats, notwithstanding the weather was anything but inviting. Promptly at the hour the notes of the organ wera touched and a beautiful overture was played by J. W. Ellis, the picco being “The Glory of the Lord,” ~The pastor then offered an appropriate prayer which touched the hearts of the older members of the society. After rayer a hymn was sang, when Rev. gln Cleland stepped to the desk and with much emotion read the following very interesting cpistle received by him and written by the first pastor of the church at this point, The house was us still as the grave, from which it secmed almost the words wero ema- nating, when we realize they were penned by the first pastor the Presbyterian people here employed to, preach The following is the letter: New York Ciry, Octobor 8.— Rev T. H. Cleland, D. D.: My Dear Brother: Yours of Sciptember 29, sent to Tom’s River, N. J., and for- warded to mo here in New York, where 1 am now living, is just re ceived. T am afraid that tho hasty letter which I shatl have to write, will hardly reach you by the 12th. 1 should be very much pleased to be with you at the 25:h anuiversary of your church and to look in the faces of your dear people once more, but it is Dot convenient for me 50 to do, When I visited council Blufls at first 1 had not much expectation of set- tling there, but God who sits on high and rules over ull was directing my steps. Ircached Council Blutls on Friday and learnt there were two churches in town, » Methodist and a Congregational. Rev. Mr. Rice, the pastor of the latter inyited me to preach for him the next Sabbath morning. I did so. On the afternoon of the same day went over tu Bellevue, preached there for Brother Hamilton, aud after preach- ing organized the Presbyterian church there. On Monda, returned to Couucil Blutls. Mr. Boyers and a few others urged me very much to stay in Council Bluffs. Itold them ¥ would and then went back to Ken- tucky for my wife. - About a month after that time 1 moved to the Bluffs with my brother-in-law and his wife. Mr. James Rue started a school and 1 commenced to preach first and for some twe up in an attic floor in Jack- son's building, Shortly after that Rev. Mr, Rice loft the Bluffs and we hired his church building, a swmall brick church on the gqure. Our con- gregations from the t wore good aud onr ways were prospered. We the wives of these good brethren who wero full of energy and zeal. Wo were young then and full uf‘ life and big with hopes. As an illus tratlon ‘of the zoal of tho pooplo we Tad a festival soon after T commenced preaching and cleared about $900, The next morning after the festival T went to the hall where it was held. Some of the brethren were there and said to me: Now, Mr. Hancock, it's a good time to commence the subscrip- tion for the church building, and did s0 then and there, and in a few days we had 87,000 subscribed toward the new church. We went to work at once, bought the lot, commenced the building, got the walls above the b ment windows, then the finan of 1857 came on so that suspend our building. “‘In regard to the particalars of the organization T have not the dates and figures with me, you have them in the church book. Soon after we com- menced our services in Council Bluffs, a celebrated infidel lecturer from the cast came to lecture on infidelity, He had large hand bills posted all over town inviting the people to come we had to and hear him. He also gave a patticular invitation to the clergy to come and hear him. Brother Goodfellow, tho Methodist minister, urged me to go with him to the lecture, so that we might be ready to answer him. I told him no, I would not go. God would take care of his own cause, As we were passing along the street a cow stood in the corner covered with snow. On her back was a blackbird trying to got some warmth from the cow by scratching away the snow, but the cow took no’ notice of the bird. I drew Brother Goodfellow’s attention to it and said, ‘‘Now this infidel locturer won't affect the church or the course of God more than that bird affects that cow;" neither did he. Our cause continued to prosper; God continued to bless us. I have been rejoiced to learn from the ministers of the assembly every year that God has blessed and prospered your jabor during your Jong pastorate, both apivitual and fiuancially. With much love to yourself and your dear people, I remain your brother in Christ. Jonx HANCOOK. Following thoe reading of the above came a very interesting address by one of the former pastors of the church, Rev. Mr. McCandlish. He spoke briefly of the past history of the church and society. At the conclu- sion of Mr. McCandlish’s address and a beautiful song entitled “My Love's a Rover,” by Miss Blanche Oliver, W H. M. Pusey, whom overybody in and out of the church knew, was intro- duced, and in o very pleasing and in terestingmannerspoke quite at length, going back into Mormon history, and remarking that they were a people that did not believe in proselyting, hence none of our churches received any of that faith. He spoke of making calls with his pastor and another deacon the 1st of June, 1863. That it was customary then amongat the churches to make New Year's calls upon the different members. Mr. Pusey gave a full and detailod history of the church organization down to the present time. At the conclusion of Mr, Pusey’s remarks, Mr. Ellis rendered a beautiful piece, which elicited a very hearty applause from the eutire audience. A letter from T. J: Hereford, addressed to Dr. E. I. Woodbury, an old member of the church, who resides at the present time at Grand Island, Nebraska, was read and its sentiments received by the audience with enthusiasm, The ladies of the church furnished refresh- ments in abundance. A contribution was taken and the sum of $92.60 real- ized, to be applied to the woman's fund. Everybudy who attended ex- pressed themselves not only pleased, but delighted. JONN W, CHAPMAN, To the Fditor of Tie Wk, 'Counuin BLurrs, October 13, said by those who know that on day last Jobn W. Chapman, with a number of his Nonpariel gang, made a bitter personal fight at the polls in this city against Eli Clayton, a candi- date for ropresentative on the repub- licau ticket. Not only did he oppose Mz, Clayton, but ho used his influence to elect. Mr. Morgan, Mr. Claytou's compotitor on the democratic ticket. Mr. Morgan is probably elected by a small majority, and h(r, Claytou can charge his defeat to the efforts of this man Chapman and his gang. When it is remembered that Chapman is the editor and principal owner of The Nonpariel, an alleged republican morning newspaper, and that for mearly fifteen years past he has been kept in the best of official positions by the re- publican party, it may scem very strauge to many that he should so Delio his loud professions of *loyalty to principle” by using every device and trick known to him to defeat a regular republican legislative candid- ate, This, too, when the legislature is to be chosen this fall elects a Uni- ted States senator, redistricts the state into congressional districts, is charged with other cqually as important pub- lic matters, Tell it not “in Fairtiold; publish it not in Afton. Bat to those who know this mun Chupman his ac- tion on Tuesday is nosat all surpris- ing, Itisbut in keeping with the man's course, and since he has been o resident of Pottawattamié county, Nearly fiftoon years ago he came here, and 8o great were his nece sities that, it is said, e offered to canvass the county for tho democrata for ten dollars & dn{. Fail. ing in this, the republicans picked him up almost a pauper, furnished him cmrlc‘?uuont, and soop had him in- stalled into a comfortable office. Then it was the ungrateful wretch began to display his real nature. In 1809 he was a candidate for appointment by President Grant —for superintendont of Indian affairs, headquarters at Omaha, For some reason he was not uproiuted and he denounced the re- publican party and President Grant in woest bitter terms, To quiet him he was appointed assistant superiu- tendent of internal revenue. This oftice he held until clected treasurer of Pottawattamie county. Shortly after his term of oflive expired he was furnished money by the city to go to Washington and !At:ur in the interest of the city in certain local matters connected with the terminus of the U, P, road. He spent all his time in working for an appointment us U, 8, “‘Geneva court of claims,” was he in- debted for generous assistance sscuring the appointment. To-day he is using the patronage of his office, and of his newspaper, to defeat the widow of Judge Baldwin, who isa candidate for reapointment as post- mistress of this city. What a beautiful record is that of this man Chapman! More in detail is not necessary at the presens, and yot how we could a ‘tale unfold,” if wo disposed. Treach- ery such as his to the party to which he owes so much brings to mind forcibly the words of that other deformity, the Duke of Gloucester, when he says, 4. ince l.cnnnut.plm'a n‘lu\'er, N . 1 am determined to prove a v llain,” This morning this political Janus published an editorial in his papor la- menting the defeat of Mr. Clayton, in which hesays: Itis but due to Mr. Clayton to stato that he has served on the board of suvervisors for several years past, and the demands made upon him, in tha: eapacity for county bridgoes by the various localities, were more than the funds provided for that purpose could meet, and onthis ac- count his name was scratched from the ticket, and by republicans who should soratch their heads in shame for the wrong thus perpetrated upon them- selves, their ticket and their prinei- ples. He should have added at the close of his editorial “And thus T elothe myself in naked vil- l lainy With odd old ends stolen forth of holy writ, And seemn a saint when most T play the devil,” The truth is that nesrly the whole opposition to Mr. Clayton originated with tiis man Chapman, solely be- cause Mr. Clayton, whilo & member of the board of supervisors, used his best Hoom, o a A 188, County Judge In the matter or the adoption < f Jennie R s, On read, nd filing the petition nf Atdus:ms and Dell Carey, praying that thes mav 574 Row- ed to adopt said Ji 1 and stateme t of Henry an i va of wid child that said Augustus and T T may he peimitted 80 to do and voluntarily relin- quishing ali claim to eid child Ordered, That Octobor 10 o'clack s, m., is assignec tion, whenall perso may appear at o County Tors il Cotnty, anfl show enuse why the' prayor of petitioner should not be grantcd, and that no- tice of pendency of eaid pelition and the hearing thereof, be given to all persons Interested in said matter, by publishing & copy of this orderin The OMANA WrRKLY BRE, 8 newspaper printed in sald County, for threo succonsive weuks, prior to said duy of hearing A M.
