Reynolds On farriving at Marshal- town Acknowledges That He Shot McCord., The desperado, Reynolds, who was captured here Monday by Officers Hur- ley and Towns, on arriving at Marshal- town in charge of the officers, was taken to the jail, where he was identified by Bedford, his partner in crime, and on being also taken into Sheriff McCord’s room was fully identified by him as be- ing the shooter. Reynolds at first de- nied, even in McCord's presence, that he was the man, but McCord was posi- tive, and on being taken back to his cell, he confessed to Sherifl Farrell that he was the man. He said that he did not intend to sheot McCord, but only to give him a blufi' and scare him go that he could make a break and get aw but when he pulled his gun, of McCord getting frightened throwing up his hands, he too cor menced to pull the gun, and the Reyaolds says he couldn’t do anythiug else but shoot to save himself. He then fled and wandered through the woods, not getting food for forty-eight hours, and then only some bran in a stable. He then got to the railway station and by stealing rides and walking got to Boone where he noticed an account of the cap- ture of the alleged Jack Reynolds, From there he came to this city, where he was captured, The talk of lynching has died away and Sherifl McCord has urged that no vio- lence be shown, his influence doing much to stay the hands of those who wouid wil- lingly hang the wretch. - — - Bushnell sells railroad tickets to pache all points, e —— The proprietor of Siloam Spring will enter into written contract to cure your catarrah, or forfeit all claims to pay for treatment., See advt. in another column, Write for particulars. e —— I0WA NEWS, ‘the Salvation Army has reached Meri- den, James Hagerty, a blackemith, was in- stantly killed at Spencer last Saturday by the ting of an emery wheel.

A tall man dressed in black leaned against the bar, and as his Prince Albert coat fell back a full dress vest was dis- closed. The man's clothing was well brushed, and he -would have been fine- looking but for some marks of dissipation on his face. “Card-leaving is rather] slow in July but still it ,pays when one has a good line of customers,” he said “‘What is card-leaving!" he was asked. *‘Leaving cards for people, that's all; but it’s a fine art. People in mourning send around black-edgers. Forthatyou've ot to wear a black band on your hat, black scarf, and gloves. If you wore color you's lose your customer in swell socie'y. Lazy gents, or indisposed, want you to go in the afternoon in a walking suit, or in the night in evening dress. Yor them I keep a swallow-tail and crush hat in a bar-room up town. Some folks think it's vulgar to send invites by mail, and want a bang-up fellow to deal the pasteboards, But the best racket is the opera game. There are lots of society men who've got to make calls, but dun’t want to. They give me a stack of their cards and a_list of formal calls. Then on opera nights 1go around to the Acedemy or Metropolitan, with my part- ner, and get fifty or sixty names of those who are there trom the coachmen and doorkeepers. Sometimes I run in my- self and look over the house. I know a good many of the society folks in New York by sight. Then comes the hard work. 1 sort my cards, and botween ¢ and 10 deliver them. You see it won't do to leave more than two cards at one house. 1f you did, they'd drop to the game.” “How did you get into the business?” “A sexton in a high-toned church uzed to leave the cards, but he found he couldn’t run it, and, besides, he lost caste professionally. I was hard up, and when he proposed it I just jumped and took it. At first it didn’t pay very well, but after a while I got known, and now 1 have a regular line of customers,” —— - mies Pilos are frequently proceded by a sense of waight in ho back, loins and lower part of tho abdomen, causing the patient to suppose he has rome affection of the kidneys or neighboring organs, At times, sym toms of hu'fi;gn-xl.iuu are present, as flatuency, uneasiness of the stomach, ete, A moistere like perspiration, producing a Aory disagresable itching particu: Lu-]yum night after getting warm in_bed, its very common attendant.

Schroter & Becht.; *“Trade suppliad by C. ¥ Goodman,” Low's Republican, he low price of sugar and the de- preseed state of the sugar trade continue, notwithstanding theadvent of the fruiv canning and preserving season, which usually causes an advance of ono cent & pound. The sugar warehouses in Brook lyn are burdened with that article, hold- ing as much as 170,040 tons for which there is no market—a larger (uantity than was ever stored in them before. The importations continues and the stock is steadily increasing. Formerly our foreign sugar supply came from Cuba almost exclusively; but now it comes from Porto Rico, Bahai, Manila, Egypt, China, and the Phillipine islands; and even KEngland is now sending sugar which has been 1in store in that country for years. New York is receiving beet-root sugar as well as cane sugar, Indeed, it is the large quantities of beet-root sugar sent out into the markets of civilized countries from Germany and France that have broken down prices and caused the de- pression in the trade. KEvery steamer from Germany and France arriving at New York brings the article, which is stored at Jersey City. Havana steam- ers, to, bring Cuban sugar as ballast. A fow days ago a cargoof Cuban sugar was #old in New York at 2} cents a pound, and prime molasses can be had at 15 cents a gallon, "This condition of things cannot but Lave & serious effect upon the sugar planting interests i Louisiana, Planters aasert they cannot make the article at existing prices, and unless they improve sugar plantin, that state will have to be abandoned, e A Lynchiog Party, CuaRLoTTESVILLE, Va., July 81.—-At three o'clock this morning & large mob’ from the neighborhood of Buckeyeland, attempted to take Jno, Rolland who wurdered Jas, Iry July sth, from Albemarle jail and lynch *hiw, but upon approaching the suburbs found i the military aud citizans had besn forawarned {and taken possession of the jail The colorod izens upon hearing of the intention of the mob proposed to join them sud tuke Joc Barbour, warderer of Randall Jackson, and IJ,\m;h him on the same tree, done to hunt it up and bring to justice | h Ho is worth £30,000,000 if he is worth & cent, and of all the bonanza kings none is more genial and kind-hearted than o Senator Sharon was born sixty years ago in a small villago in Ohio. Ho went to the village scohool during the winter monthr and from his earlicst moments strove to perfect himself in his studies, He had an all absorbing ambition to be- come a lawyer and in fact several years later on he drifted into Illinois and in a small town hund out his single. It read: Attorney-at-law, He had a client once in about six months and finally concluded that ex- istence was at ita minimum level in that town, and in 1849 he went overland to California_and at once took in the possi- bilities of making a fortune as an op- erator in real ecstate in San Francisco, The records of the country trom 1850 to the present day show an extent and mag- nitude of his transactions unequalled by any one operator in the city of San Fran- cisco. In 1863 Senator Sharon was in- duced to take the agency and general supervision of the Bnu%( of California in Gold Hill and in Virginia City, Novada, Hero he formed the acquaintance of Mr. Ralston, at that time one of the brightest heads in the mining districts. Mr, Sharon was considerable of a mining expert. and felt that the Virginia and Gold Hill mines were not 8o remunerative as they should be. He had examined with the greatest care every mine and had becomo a mining expert as well asa banker. He called to his aid, however, the best judg- ment of men of mining experience, and mado a most thorough survey of the min- ing properties in which he had become interested and finally determined to drift for a new ledge. A drift was at once undertaken and prosecuted with prodig- ious vigor. The drift developed not only a new deposit of ore, but it soon exposed to view the *‘King of the Comstock.” From that time Mr. Sharon became the recognized leader in enterprises of the greatest magnitude on the Comstock, and these were managed with such adroit- ness and skill that he was regarded as the financial chief of the Pacific coast, His name was added to the directory of the bank. All went swimming on the high tide of wealth and prcsperity for nearly ten years. Then came a day when gibes and sneers were hurled against tho directors of the bank. Its depositors with bated breath and low- toned voice and scarcely audible whisper, told the sad tale of ruin, beggary and misery unmeasurable. The great bank of California had suspended. And Rals- ton, its president had drawn the veil up- on alife that had lifted enterprise into ex- altation and rearod monuments of gran- deur on cither side cf his pathway. The ctizens of San Francisco have not forgotten that dreadful day. The streets around the bank were packed with men and women, and yet not one word of censure was expressod, 80 pronounced was the affection for Ral- ston and theesteem in which the directory was held. Soon the small sectional door was opened and Senator Sharon stepped through it upon the sidewalk, and for a few moments cast a steady look upon the mass of human faces turned upon him. His face, habitually mobileand impertur- able, expressed for a moment that touch of sympathy which can never be told in words. The multitude seemed to under- stand it, and raising his hat more with the purpose af admitting the cool air to his threbbing brain than in salutation, he turned with a step and manner full of ssolation and turned away. A meeting of the directors was called for that ovening, and in a vigorous specch Mr. Sharon vocated that all should put their hands into their pockets and wiako up any deficioncy m the bank's capital, Senator Sharon headed the list, and in a few days the bank was enabled to resume. Thus was the bank put upon its feet, and to Senator Sharon was justly ascribed the success of the ventu Several years later Mr. Sharon was elected United States senator from Ne- vada, and he still holds the oftice. He i quiot and unpretentious in his demen- uwor, and few would recognize in him the owner of the **King of the Comstock” and other millions of property.

In Kogland the female evening or full drees is and always has been de riguer, to orawl through, shows the complete contour of both arms between the top of the bodice and the shoulder knot. One could, perhaps, forgive her this trick if the result wero satisfactory in other respects. But her neck is bony and scraggy to a degree. What surprises one most is that she should be as fond as she is of being photographed in a semi-stat- uesquo fashion. Gindys, Countess 'of Lonsdale, has a beautiful neck, and a bust which, to once 800 a8 she graciously condescends to un veil it, would make one rogard as & spe- cien of vandalism any wovement of fash- ion directed to even a soupeon of its fu ture obscurity. Mrs. Cornwallis West is now getting decidedly passe; but m her best days,about three or four yearsago,she dresned as decollote as—well, as decollote as everybody dresses now.

Yet no one could really blamo her, beyond its then atyled immod- esty, for showngas lovely & neck and shoulders as one could well wish to see. The young Marchioness of Kildare, Lady Hermione Duncombe that was a fow months ago, has a beautiful neck, of which she never fails to show what would be considered a superabundance in a less favored.by-nature woman. And after all. that is really where it all 1. One doesn’t object to the pretty necks going asduocicto as they please.

The day of the assassination,” said Mr, Ford, ‘about 12 m., Booth came down Tenth street to the theater and stopped there to read a letter. I can remember very well seeing him gitting on the steps outside. 1 told him that President Lincoln and General Grant were coming to the theater that night. 1said that President Lincoln and General Grant would occupy one box, and added as a joke to tease him, that Jeff Davis and General Lee would be in another box. He denounced General Lee vory vigorously for having surren- dered the sword of Virginia. That eve- ning after the performance began, he camo to the theater and as he passed the bex oftice holooked into the window,and putting his arm through placed a lighted cigar on a shelf inside,and said in a mock heroic bombastsclurioso style: ‘Who e'er this cigar dares displace Must meet Wilkes Booth face to face.” “Then he passed into the theatre, “Did he ever return for the cigar? asked the Star reporter. No. Those were the last words I ever heard him speak. e must have eaid them to mislend us, for his plans, it seems, were already laid and it was parc of the plan, as 1 heard afterward, that Payne was to assassinate Seward, Atzerott should kill Johnson at the Kirk- wood house, and Booth shoot the presi- dent simultancously, So he know just what he was going to do, and how much time he hud “‘Later in the evening,” continued Mr. Ford, “‘we heard a pistol shot in the theatre. Joe Sessford and I were in the treasurer's office. We thought at firat that it was the pistol fired by ‘Aea Trenchard’ in the play—Laura Keene was playing ‘Our American Cousin’—but then it struck us a little too early in tho evening. We opened a little window that looked into the theatre, and saw Booth crouching on the stage with a knife in his hand, Even then we could not tell what had happened, and no one seemed to know. We thought at first that some one had insulted Booth and he had pursued the man across the stage. A few minutes, which seemed an hour, passed before the whole terrible truth was known.” **You were among those who were arrested, were you not{” asked the Star reporter. “‘I was arrested, I think, on the Sun- day following the assassination, and taken down to the old Carroll prison, fronting upon the capitalgrounds. 1 was treasurer of the theatre, aund my brother, James .

It is the established court dress of the English court, and there never has beena sovereign so strict in therules and regulations which enforce its observance as Queen Victoria, The queen herself in her best days was never alarmingly reluctant as to the extent of her bwn display of those womanly charms with the possession of which she is in no small degree accredited, Her daughters, too, when in evening dress, are quito lavish in an exhibition which leaves but little to the imagivation, Espec- ially may this be said to be the case with the Princess Louise. And, indeed, she can hardly be blamed for not trying to concesl one of the most rounded, plump and satiny neck and pairs of shoulders and the most billowy bosoms in the United Kingdom; and that is saying a good deal, Certain. ly no men object to the gracious views she gives thew, and what women may say in, of courss, sctuated by jealonsy and spite. Idoubt if Laboiichere has ever seen the Princess Lovise in & low- necked gown, Af he ever had he wouldn't have another word to say against the custom.

That was not very cheering music for our ears, We did not know but the people in their excitement would mob the prison and lynch us, for some of the men arrested had been stoned in the street, Our fare was course prison food, soup and beans and dry bread. Even thie experience had its comic side. Wo used to have tin cups, and every evening one of the prison guards would come through the hall roaring, ‘Cupe, cups, you scoundrels.’ Wo had to pass them out to him, After that first week we had more liborty, and really had a very jolly timo.” e A Irish Libel Suit, Bewrast, July 81.—The libal by Bolton, OMAHA SAFE DEPOSIT VAULTS Fire and Burglar Proof Safes for Rent at from 5 to $50 per annum, C.
