The man released her arm, but followed her to the house of a friend and had the audacity to go in and sit down, An officer was sent for, and, after some wesistance, the man was taken away, but e never turned up in police court, and it is said that the man who made the arrest was not an officer ut all, The lady's hns- band will return to-day, and it is hoped will thoroughly investigate the matter, —Many of the prominent citizens of Lincoln had a meeting last Friday night for the purpose of devising ways and means for defeating the schemes of prohibition- ists, and in twenty minutes raised the sum of $300 as a starter to carry on the cam- paign in Lancaster county, Already a ‘mass moeting has been called at the city ball for Monday evening, when the ball will be set in motion, Many of their prominent speakers have signified their intention of addressing the meeting.

A R IN THE TOILS. The Brunson Confldence Man Goes to Lincclin on a Serious Charge. The old man who was arrested last woek for fleecing the Towa cattle man, Brunson, out of §34 on the old and threadbare baggago game and whose friends settled with Brunson for £50, was this morning taken to Lincoln to answer to a similar charge. It 1s hoped the authorities at tho capital lieutenant and detail of men Sunday. It is complainad that he was allowed to lie in jail nearly twenty-four hours with. out medical attention, the first he received being at the transfer, on his way back, from Dr, D, W, King, of Boulder, Colo, MoKay is not a drinking man, and his sudden insavity is inexplicable. —A terrible accident occurred Saturday evening on Fourteenth street, which re- sulted in & little one anda half-year-old child of a Swedish family being nearly burned to death, It was about the hour for the evening meal and the mother had placed a large tureen of cabbage, boiliog hot, on the table, The child managed to reach it and overturn the tureen, the soalding contents pouring down in a flood over the head, neck and shoulders of the little one and{burning 1t in & shooking man- ner, It is hoped that with proper medi- cal care it may recover, but it will be a «close call, ~To.dsy August 15th, the gawme law expires, and already an army of hunters are leaving for the front with dog and gun, The train yesterday took outu pleasant party from Plattsmouth, including Gen, R, R, Livingstone, Sam Chapman, F, E. White, A. W. White, William Neville L, D. Bennett and U, V. Matthews. They came up on the /morning B. & M, train and go to Norfolk for a week's sport, They had six splend.d dogs. ~There will be aregular meeting of the Bt. George's society this evening, at the hall, 1314 Douglas street, The liter- will give it to him for all it is worth, as he is undoubtedly one of a band of rascals who have been operating here trom time to time and who ought, every one, to have been in the pen long ago. The Journal says of this man and his of- fonse there: Our readers will remember the par- ticulars of a confidence game that had been succeszfully perpetrated upon a oung man at the B. & M, depot. 'he operator appeared to be, as the Denver papers would say, a green- looking chump, He met his victim on the train, became thoroughly ac- quainted with him, representing him- self as a stock man. When the train otopped in this city, the confidence man seemed to be in a reat hurry, and hastening to his new ound friend, desived the temporary loan of $100. The young man had not this amount with him, but would loan his friend all he had, 860, if he would give him security. The rascal promptly pulled out an immense pocket book, and after rummaging about a lot of papers, selected a draft DOWN IN A COLD MIKE. The Omaha People ‘Handsomely Treated by the People of Dutte.

Burre Orry, August 7.—The Omaha board of trade called a meeting at O a. m., President Clark in the chair. The following members signify their intention of going from this place TO MELENA: Thomas Swift and wife, M. Marshall and wife, F. Krug, J. Peycke, I Scherb, M. Hellman, C. F. Driscoll, John Erck, Max Meyer, A. Nast and Tuxr BEr reparter. The balance of the party will go from here to the National Yellow- stone park, via Virginia City. The Helena delegation will meet the other division at the park on Sunday next. The motion of Mr. Swift was sec- onded and carried, that the delega- tion representing the Omaha board of trade, visiting Helena, bo authorized to report the interests of the said Omaha board of trade at that place. Moved by Marshall that the mem- bers of the Helena division have a special meeting. Carried. ANOTHER MEETING. The Helena division was called to order, Max Meyer in the chair. On motion, Messrs, Driecoll, Scherb and Meyer were appoinved as a com- mittee of arrangements with power to act. On motion, adjournment until 2 p. m. for reporta, At 9 &, m., in the absence of a board of trade in Butte, the mayor and city council came out in behalf of the peo- ple and gavo us a hearty reception, and mado complete arrangements to escort the cntire party OVER THE MOUN1AINS high to the mines. At 2:30 p. m. two four-horse and two two-horse car- ringes wero driven to the door of the spacious and well regulated St. Nicho- las hotel and placed at our sorvice The city officials consist of W. M. Owaly, the courteous and obliging mayor, with the council, Wm. French, Geo. W. Newkirk, J, W, Forbis, I3, Tisher, J. McCarthy, C. B. Houser, J. T. Porrin, J. P, Reing, John T. Baldwing, city attorney, togeiher with several of the laading citizens of the place. They accompanied us DOWN IN THE GOLD MINES, soven hundred feet underneath the ground. Before saying more, I wish to say that the people of Butte could not do more for the amugement of any guests than they have done for the Omaha board of trade. ¥or genial, outspoken friendship, thoy are ex- celled by none, and the entire popula- tion of Omaha are under many and everlasting obligations to these, not near, but good frivnds, for services rerdered their representatives. On behalf of the people of Omaha I heartily extend a cordial invitation to Butte City, at any time they see fit, to return our visit. BUTTE CITY 18 located at the foct of Butte moun- tain, which is simply a high peak and is & continuation of the mining ridges which comprise, perhaps, the richest mineral deposit of silver and copper, with some gold, of any range yet found. The enterprising and rapidly growing town boasts of 8,000 people, ncluding the suburban hamlets, which aro occupied by miners, There are about 300 Chinese here, who are util- ized to good ndvantage as ‘‘washee men,” and Kim Chang Sing is not for $160 on an Owsha bank. When the train started the coufidence man could not be found; this soemed to surprise the youn, man, and for the first time he reali that he had been swindled; but he re- mained in town and the next day took the train for Omaha, and was not dia- appointed when the teller of the First National bank of that city informed him that the check was not worth the ary exercises will commence at 9 o'clock, The families of the members of the society are invited to attend these exercises, The “Heptarchy,” or the “Seven Saxon King. " by the president, —A special meeting of the Micanerchor society was held last evening at their room in Poppleton’s block, to complete arrangements for the picuic, which they intend havioe at Plattsmouth on the 27th inst, ' —There was an extra large attendance at Hanscom park Bunday, thousand visiting it during the'day. It is & grand Sabbath resort for families, and is more highly appreciated every day. ~—A letter received in this city from the sdjutant of Abe Lincoln post, G: A. R., at Council Bluffs, promises & big squad from there to attend the G, A, R. picnic ot Hascall's park on the 20th. If the weather proyes fair it will be one of the biggest picnics of the season. ~Lovers of good sport will be glad to learn that Mr. C, J, Mentor, proprietor of the ““Blue Barn” Ras added to his livery an elegant hunting wegon; also s two seated carriage. Mr, Mentor bhas been very suc- ocssful in_ his business so far aud we hope that tie ploneer !*Blue Burn” will always be to the front, —Supt, Howser, of the Y. M. C, A,, yesterday received a large number of addi- tional pictures to place on exhibition at the association roows, in Poppleton block, ‘with the Dewey collection, to which they helong, The exhibition will be continued all week free of charge, ~Conveyances will run from each of the botels to Hascall's park all day loog on the 20th. ~Mr, Wille, the famous Farnam street tonsorial artist, has made considerable im- provements in his establishment, He now has the boss boot blacking chair in the west. ~Mrs, Charles J, Jobuson, wile of the paper it was printed upon. From that day to this, the young man has been hunting tor tho man who played him for a greenhorn, and a few days sinco meot the man on the street of Omaha and had him put in jail. The officers of Omaha know the man to be a grand rascal, but have never had the opportunity to get the drop upon him; though they are confident he is one of the uliuien confidence men that ever crossed the Missouri river. The chargoe against the man, it soems, would not hold good in Omahs, therefore, the chief of police of this city was telegraphed, and this after- noon will leave for Omaha and bring the grand rascal back to this city. T A Happy Obristening. A very enjoyable aflair took place st the residence of Mr, Jacob Elsas. ser, No. 614 South Eleventh street, Sunday afternoon, being the chris. tening of five little ones, sons of Messre. Jacob Elsasser, William F, Rice, Otto Kugeler, Leonard Laible and Peter K. Elsasser. The Rev, Friese, of the German Lutheran church on Jackson street between Eleveuth and Twelith, ofliciated, and the festivities lasted from 1 p, m, un- til 11 p. m, The names of the children were* Wilhelm Ludwig Elsasser, William Frederick Rice, Luise Otrillia Kuge. ler, Johaun George Laible, gnd last, but by no means least, Peter Emil El- sasser, Notice. The ‘“‘Hawthorn Centennial Ex- celsior Roof Paint,” was patented May 24th, 1881, aud lotters patent num- ber 241, 803. Any person found or known to tawper with the manu- facture of said paint - will be punish- ed to the full extent of law. No per- son has any suthority whatever to sell receipts, Hawrsory & Bro., Lancaster, Pa. here looked upon as among the super- numerous, There aro five hotels here and the rato is very reasonable indeed, $2.00 and $2.00 per day being all that is charged, notwithstanding the out- rageously high price charged by the Union Pacific ratlroad for freight from Ogden, which is six cents & pound. Ten grocery houses, three hardware, five drug stores, six dry goods and clothing houses, six breweries, three banks, three boot and shoe stores, four 1urniture stores, four wholesale liquor dealers, one large mining ma- clunery house, as well as all other going down or up is not so striking as one would suppose. The ouly incon- veniencs experienced was a alight pressure on tho tympanum, Which ouly lasted a fow seconas. AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SHAFT a strong current of air is felt, which is biown down by the 450-horse power engine that drives the whole ma- chinery, Here we find archways cut, about eight fect high and five feet in width, At the botu'm is laid & miniature railroad track with cail 18 inches apart, on which small cara are run. Between these rails clear, cold water is ranning at a rapid rate and the services of a huge pump are re- qaired to elevate this water, which THE WOMAN IN WHITE. Who Has Been [Roping in the Green- horns of Lincoln For the past ten days a gayly dress- ed woman has been walking streets, enenaring the unsophisticated and inducivg then to accompany her to apartments on FEleventh street, near Connor’s carringe factory. She commenced her walks about dusk and continued them at brief intervals un- til midnight. A few nights since the police got onto her racket through one of her dupes, who says ho was in- duced to accompany her to her apart- our pours out at the rate of 210 gallons per minute, Our guide informed me that in case the pump should stop for two hours the weoter would raise above our heads. We follow this arch for a distance of 210 feet and come toa similar one which crosses it at right angles, These run forabout the same distance and then others are made as ocoasion requires, with car tracks in oach one. fhis is called a ‘‘evel,” and ocours at intervals of each 100 feot of depth; thus in going down to the hottom we pass six similar ones, all;being worked. THE MINERAL VEINS are followed and ustally run in an east and west direction. Strange to say all of these claurs are located on the tops of the mountains, aud many times rich deposits are fouud at the grass roots. The oro is dug from these arches and elevated by the cab, and is firat crushed by the ccusher or grinder nto small pieces, It 18 now in a sul- phurated state and passes through large rotary furnaces, 24 feet long by 3} feot in diameter., This drives off tne sulphuric acid and leaves the quartz, which is rich in gold and_sil- ver mixed, in a more brittle condition for THE STAMPS, These are set close together in a row and are upright posts of iron, weigh- ing 850 pounds each, and are worked by cranks from the main shaft, These stampas reduce the roasted ore to pow- der and the capacity of a mill is based upon the number of stamps it has. T'hus pulverized the quartz is cone veyed to a large, upright furnace and hented red hot, Then it is treated with common salt. By this process the ore iy *‘chloranized,’ which fits the metal for amalgamation with mercury. After taken trom the furnace it is cooled, then ccnveyed to large tubs which have a revolving dasher, and mixed with water and is kept con- stantly in motion. There are in the Alice mill over forty of these tubs in in use. The lighter ruck and foreizn matter is carried off with the ex- cess of water, which rans along a shute in which are numerovs *‘brakes” or states that catch any par- ticle of metal that gots away. The heuvy portion is treated with quick- silver, whioh has o strong affinity for either gold or silver, and immedistely adheres to it or picks it up, and the amalgam is run off into vessels at the bottom. This amalgam is treated in a retort after the distiliing process, which drives the mercury off in fumes to be condensed and conveyed into 3 separate and pure state again, loaving the metal nearly pure, which is then caked into bullion. The business is 80 well managed under the porsunal suporvision of Mr. Hall that A TON OP MERCURY only loses a half pound during the en- tire process of working, Sume idea may be had of the magnitude of one of these mills when it requires nine huge boilers to generate steam for the engine, which has a cylinder six feet long by 36 inches wide. Eighteen tons of coal and thirty-five cords of wood are consumed daily under these boilers. A tramway 1,226 feet long and trus- seled at the center, across a valley 80 feet below, leads to another shaft or hoisting house. Below the ‘‘levels” are connected underneath the surface. Only three ysars ago the first quartz mill was started on a smull scale, and now there are TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY STAMPS working, and new milis building. Last year there were turned out 23,- 000,000 tons of quartz, There are aside frrom the Alice, the Moulton with 40 stamps, the Lexington, 40 stampe; Silver Bow, 30 stamps, and soveral minor ones, besides threo or four smelting works, The average value of quartz found here is $20 per ton, and an unlimited quantity is estimated to be withih sight, Many richer pockets are struck, but some of the rock is worthless, The whole mining works are lit with an electric light, and the city, proper, is now negotiating for the light, and will, no doubt, secure it soon, ACCIDENTS seldom happen in the mine, buta branches of trades and smaller houses are thriving here. The towu site was located in 1876, and for a mining camp assumed a wuch more moral tone than is char- acteristic of most frontier towns, notwithstanding in one block there are eleven saloons and only twelve buildings, The most of these are running ‘‘sweat boards” which are largely patronized by the lower ciass of miners who ‘‘blow in” all the wealth they have or can get. There are also FIVE CHURCHES, one of them a tent, all well patronized, The most striking thing one sees here is a team of seven yoke of oxen, drawing two wagons, esuch heavily loaded, hauling wood and freight to the quartz mills, The principal object of attention here 1s the mining, it 1s conducted on o scientific and extensive scale, The largest ot the stamping mills is the *‘Alice” which has 80 stamps and ma- chinery excelled only by the Comstock mill at Virginia City, Nevada. To give an explicit idea of the extent and workings of this mill would require a visit of at least 8 week, but I will en- deavor to give a description of the manipulations as I saw during a hasty visit of a couple of hours. Under the direction of MR. W. E. HALL, the superintendent, who is one of the most manly men of all meu one can meet, we (the entire party) were lowered down the shalt, six at a time, in a cab about 3x0 feet in size. This is operated by a one-inch wire ro pelled by steam power, under tho mmediate attention of an engineer, at the rate of the total depth of 700 foet in 3} minutes, The sensation story is told of a one-inch steel cold- chisel, three foet in length, having fallen 100 feet and struck a miner on the shoulder blade and camo out through the chest. The mau is still living, however, and able to work, This story is confirmed by several aub- stan buciness men, whose roputa- tion is at stake, and, of course, I tuke it to be true, Soveral car loads of ‘‘ma't” sre shipped out of this place monthly, and it is cluimed that more freight is seut away from here than is received, T regret that my time was so limited that 1 could not give this town a fair showing such as it juastly [deseryes. But a hasty trip amoug 8o many won derful things, givee bus a crude idea of the true inwardpess of the work- ings. 1 cannot close without men- tioning the names of a fow of the SOLID MEN of the city who are doing a thriving business and are looked upon as the pillars of the place. I only had time to call upon s portion of those, and my sincere thanks are tendered to Mr, Dan B, Welsh, the jolly county treas- urer, who escorted your seribe around town with theeourtesy of a “‘khedive,” Messrs, Lee, Foster & Co,, have one of the largest grocery stores in town, while the Butte Hardware company do the hard business, Messrs. Sands & Boyce have an immense stock of dry goods, ete. Kinna & Jack have the stoves, queensware, etc. Hoge, Brownler & Co., are the bankers of the city. James Benshaw has mining machinery enough for all who wish to locate there, At 4 a. m., Tuesday the party broke up somewhat, only & portion of them going to Helena tno balance returning to the Park from here, ¥, mente; when he got inside the boudoir two men from an adjoining room appeared upon the scene and one of them accused the young man of cs- tranging the affections of his wife. A scene was about to ensue, and rather than have any difficulty the youngster planked down some five or six dollars and seemed to be glad to get out of the house with his life. Since then he has watched the woman in white closely, detormined to bring her to justice if he could do so without giving bhimself away; but he found he could not do it without taking an officer into his confidence. A fow days since he mide a clean breast of the whole af- fair, and asked the officor to keep his name a secret, Since that time the officer has foillowed her night after night, but was never fortunate cnough to find her at home with & strange man, Last night he observed her trail ng along the east side of the government square, sponk- ing to almnost every man she met, By this time the officer became tired of following the trail, and walking up to her ask what her line of business was, She indignantly turned upon him, and in a haughty manner exclaimed: “Uf I am to be dogged about this city and arrested at every corner, I shall return to Omaha, where I have plenty o friends.” “The ofMic.r remarked that he would be very much pleased to see her take the Sunday train to Omahn, but if he found her here Monday he would see that she kept off -the strects of Lin- coln for some time to come.—Lincoln Journal.
