The Nonpareil will never forgive the boys for this, and this accounts for the hot shot they fire at the force. The committee of Odd Fellows ap- 9 pointed to receive proposals for selling ground on which to build a temple have received about twenty-five bids, several of which are so reasonable that it is thought now the order will decide to build atonce. Plans for buildings are to be received, and the committee will report to the order, recommending loca. tion and plans at the same time, Last Friday night a young man named ‘Whipple stole a horse from W.

The sheriff came at once and arrested the fellow, who acknowledged to having stolen the horse. He was taken to jail at Glenwood, and we presume will be transferrad to Fro- mont county for trial.—Malvern Leader. A young fellow, Wesley Quackenbosh, has been arrested on the charge of lar- ceny. He has been living in a dug-out -about a mile and a half from Broadway, .and at his place the officers found a hand saw and two new hatchets belonging to a «carpenter named Bennett, and some other articles, A box of sleeve buttons, wollar battons and trinkets were also dound. On Quackenbosh's person was found a letter from his sister, who is teaching school in Omaha, urging him to adopt his right name and go to work in Omaha at some honest employment, and offering to help him if he would try to help himself, There are a few who delight to sneer | three be at meeting of the workingmen.
