Mat Grimm, the Defaulting Bridegroom, oW at Lineola, The Loss of u;u M;noy the Oause of His Disappearance, The strange and mysterious disappenr- ance of Max Grimm on his wedding mora was solved yesterday forenoon by the rocoipt by Margaret Klenach, his aflianced bride, of the following letter: LixcoLy, August 12, 1884, Dear MARGARET:—I am vory sorry 1 loft you. 1 lost the §250 I borrowed to pay on my land. 1 am in trouble every’ where, Some peoplo have put mo up against your mother, 1 am ablo so sup- port you any time, and can make & good living for both of us. 1 loft for the pur- poso of finding rest and am very, very sorry 1 left you. 1 beg your pardon for leaving you and will love you till 1 die, I am very sorry I left you, Max Grivw, The above is a copy of the letter which was written in German, and is as cor- roct a translation of it as the idioms of the two languages will admit. From the mother of Miss Klenech it was learned that some time ago Joseph Grimm, a brother of Max, entered two claims, ono under a homestead and the other under a pre-emption right, near a little place in this state, named Spalding. Owing to his non-compliance with the law, he was about to lose them and relinquished his rights, his brother immediately making his filing on the same. Not long ago the timo came for him to prove up on his pre-emption and he was wanting the money, It was borrowed from a friend in south Omaha and this is the money referred to in his letter, How it was lost is not now known, It was said by Mrs. Klensh that no one even knew whether or not he had the money when he disappeared and his absence to-day is accounted for by some of his friends on the supposition that part of it was needed to pay the expenses of his mar- riage. Yesterday after his disappearance quite & number of his friends turned out to look for_him, supposing his lifeless body would bo found along the banks of the Missouri, or in some lonely place pierced with bullets. Yesterday fore- noon several of them had just returned to Mrs. Klensch's house when the letter was brought to the young woman, Her mother states that her daughter recog- nized the handwriting so soon as it was given her, and] with a look of disdain opened the missive, saying, that he who would leave hor as Grimm had would do things much worse and she would never marry him, It was roported on the stroet last evening that the young lady had sent Grimm a tole- attending to the ‘‘weightier matters of the law;” the Slocum law, for instance.

The Omaha Stock Yards Reccive Their First Shipment of Oattle, Yesterday the firat train load of stock pretension; nothing at all between what should be a woman's choicest secret— herself—and the outside world, but a flimsy connected series of holes through- which the most indifferent marksman could shoot his pebble at twenty paces, And for what possible purpose is this show made? Nome that I can see; but if there be one, it must be a very poor one, for the results are nothing more nor less than thatthe wearer makes herzelfto bo despisad of women andderided of men;and that she noi only makesherself lookas though she were absolutely melting with discomfort; completely out of style, and ‘“‘common,” For any dress or any casion the web embroidery 1s fast be- coming—in fact is—old style. The cor- rect thing for India linen, nainsook, or lawn drosses is to have two stripes of open embroidery down the back, three down the sleeves, and three down the front, if the other trimming—often a be- ruffled vest—does not interfere. | e— hooting Affray at Oreighton, Correspondence of Tie Brk. Cnrtonron, Neb., August 12.—The usually quiet town has been shocked by a shootin g affray that occurred hero last Sunday morning, at 2 p. m,, in front of a notorio us low dive. The affair occur- red as follows: A stranger on going to Dakota stopped in our town over night, and had considerable money. Several noted gamblers of the town took it upon themsel ves to draw this man into a game in order to relieve him of his money, but fajled. Saturday even- ing was spent by the stranger and gramblers in imbiding considerable tangle-foot, when one of these gamblers became so exasperated that he was go- ing to kill his man any way, so drew his revolver and attempted to schoot this stranger when a room-mate and friend of the gambler stepped in and attempted to take the revolver away from this notorious villian, got shot through the hand and in the towels. The name of the shootist is Link Baker, and of the unfortunate man, Fred Lotty. The wound will in all probability prove fatal. The murderer was taken by the citizens and turned over to a pal, to take care of him until the marshal was brought upon the ground, and was un- doubtedly told by this pal to skip, which he did in good shape. If this notorious dive had been closed at a seasonable hour this would not have occurred, but I un- derstand it is kept running night ana day, Sunday included, and our town council and marshal quietly look on and say or do nothing, and if the ecitizens were to do anything they would stand by the dive. TRAVELER, o ——— Fix for the Fair, Meassrs, Furnas, Dinsmore, Grinnell and Brown, of the State Board of Agri- culture, held an informal meeting last evening at the Paxton to consider the matter of improvements on the state fair grounds. In theafternoon three of these gentlemen visited the grounds and re- ported at the meeting that the work was progressing rapidly and that everything would be in order at the opening of the fair, Theso gentlemen are highly elated at the prospects of the fair and think the one closo at hand will far surpass all others of former years, They repori an unprecedented lot of entries up to the for the now stock yards arrived in Omaha. There were 25 car loads, in all numbering 625, They came from Major Walcott's ranch, near Deer Creek, Wy- oming, and were carred at Medicine Bow, They were nearly all 3-year-old Texans, and would average from 950 to 1,160 pounds per head. The cattle were unloaded and fed at the yards preparatory to starting to- day for Chicago. It was Mr. Walcott's intention to sell them in Omaha when he left the ranch, but the buyers here are not ready to begin to deal in stock. For the present no rates have been de- termined upon for the feeding of stock at the yards. Twenty-five conts will be charged on all cattlo and ten cents on all hoge and sheep sold here. The advan- tages of theso yards aro woll known in the west and a creat investment is predic- ted for the men who have built them. . Settling their Losses, The adjusters for the various insurance companies carrying risks on the Omaha lard refinery finished their work of ad- justment yesterday, Upon stock alone the company was insured to the extent of §30,000, the property being valued at $22,000. The loss by fire was $19,343.35 its proportionate share of which near- ly every company paid yesterday. The Bouson, Weeping Water; H. W. Neiman, Schuyler; W, 8, Beldan, Lincoln; 0.

Mr, Rush looks upon the action of that body as arbitrary, and thinks the action of that body would not stand in the courts, Fort Niobrara; Robert E, U, P, Bang Golng to Fremont, Mz, W, F, Pllacging, mavager of the U.

R Knox County Politics, Nioprara, August 12, We had a red hot convention on Sat- urday. Doc. Rande ofliciated as chair- men of the county central committee and refused to hear any one but Red Hat Brooks. Finally another member of the county contral committee, L. D. Well- man, put the motion on temporary chair- man and the Rand wing was defeated. Brooks and his corporals guard of followers then run a side show in one side of the hall and got up a double header. The convention proper pro- ceeded in a quite orderly manner and listened to eloquent speeches by H. Koster, D. M. Strain, Emmett Barber, J. 0. Santer and others, and adjourned with three cheers tor Blalne and Logan, John M. Lytle was nominated for repre- sentative and Chester A. Norton for county commissioner. Both are warm frionds of Senator Van Wyck and are young men of fine ability, being popular throughout the county, and will be eleoted by 600 majority.

Once when making a daguerreotype 1 was ered since, however, that only one hour before the fire was first soen, three of the company's employees had left the refinery after going through the building looking for some one who had left one of the windows open. o ——— SHAMELESS BOSTON GIRLS, Some of Them Dress in u Way to Re mind One of Certaln Mald- ons Nearer Home, Boston Gazotte, The more one sces of it and thinks about it the more earnestly does one de- clare against the wearing of thin or elab. orate light or white summer dresses upon the business streets of a clty like Boston, A neat white gown, simply made, and above all modestly made, is a pretty sight on any day suitably warm and pleasant, and in auy place. But many of these to which our cyes are daily treated are neither neat, nor simple, nor modest.

The Missing 'Groom Unacconnted For— Various Rumors as to His Whereabonts, Max Grimms the young man who s0 mysterionsly disappeared upon his wed- ding morn ia still missing and no trace of his whereabouts can be be found, Tt was reported that a body which an- ewored to the description of that of Grimms’ had been fonnd in Council Bluffs and that a photograph found in the pockets and tho necktio worn by the deceased had been sent to this city. This, howevor, was but an idle rumor and in without any foundation whatever, Yesterday o littlo girl called at Tur_Bee office and stated that as she and her mother were passing through a little strip of wood near Eighteenth and Doroas streets Saturday night about 12 o'clock, that they saw the body of a man lying upon the ground apparently aslecp and that his dress tallied with that said to have been worn by Grimms at the time of his disappearance. At the time the little girl called at this office the reporter was absent and her address was not ob- tained. If she will call again and leave her address she will confer a great favor.

Strong has just com- pleted at the Lehigh Valley shops in Wilkesbarre, Penn,, a locomotive wnich he expects will be able to pull a train on the New York division of the Lehigh road at the rate of 80 miles an hour. The ongine weighs nearly 100,000 pounds, and the tender when filled with coal and water, 70,000 pounds, It is stated that the engine will develop from 1400 to 1600 horse power, The great speed claimed for this engine is attained by constructing the cylinders with the steam and exhaust entirely independent. This is done by using fewer plain slide valves (known as gridiron valves) on each cyl- inder, The valves are worked by a pe- culiar arrangement of valve gear, in which the motion is taken from the con- neecting-rod, and working entirely on true centers, there being no sliding sur- faces; the steam valves being independ- ent of the exhaust and vice versa, any point of cut-off or expan- sion can be obtained without the corresponding back pressure and over-compression, as in the link mo- | & ton. The point of compression can also be changed without altering the point of cutoff or expansion, so that the same ized cylinder will give much more pow- or at a given pressure than can be ob- tained by the link. To get the full bene- fit of this the engine carries 160 pounds boiler pressure, the boiler beingconstruct- ed of steel eapecially for the purpose. It has outjoiuts, doublerivited with H4 inches for its smallest diameter. The fire box is 11 feet with 236 two-inch tubes and ithe total heating surface being 1378 equare feet, The grate area is 37 square foet. The engine 1s also fitted with an i independent steam pump and a heater l(ur feeding the boiler 80 as to put in water at uearly the boiling point, the heater being under the boiler The pump being independent, can be run when the engine is standing, and just fast enough to keep an even gauge of water when running. The steam break on the en- gine is also of special design, and _also spark arrester designed by Mr. A, Mitchel, the superintendent. This ar- rester is 8o arranged that all the sparks are thrown down into a box, forward of the smoke arch and are _there carried to the end of the run and dumped the same ashos, The spark arrester has been in use for some time and has proven satis- factory. » — Yarns About the War, Correspondence of tha Boston Globe, ‘‘So Butler isn't coming,” said an ex- officer at the Old Orchard house reunion of the Grand Army . the Republic yes- terday. 80 it seoms,” replied the comrade ad- dressed. “I'm gorry for it. 1served under him,” said the ex-offiicor. *‘I rernomber that at New Orleans I saw two regular fire- eaters, They'd got to see Butior on some business, but, by Georgo, they didn't dare to.
