No Delay in the dransfer oy Cattle Across the Missouri When the firat shipment of cattle was made from the Omaha Stock yards, the narrow guage denizens “‘over the river'y thought they would put a quietus on shipments from the now yards at once, and immediately set afloat the story that it took tour hours for this train to get from the vyards to Council Bluffs, and their papers quickly took up the ery and published it. At this Mr. Upton, the secretary of the Union Stock Yards Oo., a once set to work to investi- gate the actual time made by this stock train, and found it to be forty-five min utes, instead of four hours. He then sent the followiug letter to the Nonpareil hoping they would rectify their misre resentation, but, although they were fast enough to publish the lie, they could not have the graco to correct it Uxtox S1ock Yarps Co.

An exhibition of the kind referred to took place yesterday when a reporter was compelled to withdraw from the apartment in which the jail record was kept after having the same taken from him by an officer whose braius com- pare very unfavorably with his ponderosi. ty. The city jail isa public place and its records should be open for inspection by all who wish to seo them. 1f the “*valuables” which sometimes hap - pen to lie by them are liable to be *‘touched” the vigilant eye of the police- man should never leave them.

BISHOP MALLALIEU, The Reception Tendered the Rev erend Gentleman Last Evening, Bishop Willard F. Mallalien, of the Methodist Episcopal church, is the latest elocted of the bishops of his church and his visit to Nebraska is the firat episco. pal duties which he has performed since his election, In view of these facts the members of the various Methodist churches in this city and state tendered him a reception atthe First M. E. church, on Davenport street, last even- ing. Rev. A. Hodgett, of Papillion, opened thereception Friday nightwith prayer and warm speeches of welcome wero made by Presiding Elders Marquett, of the Nor- folk district, and Maxfield, of the Omaha district; Rovs. J. B, Stewart and J. B. Leedom, of this city; Rev. N. H. Gale, of Blair; Rev. J. W. Shank, of Springfield® The bishop replied in informal re. marks, in the course which he alluded to the fact that he had been born, convert- ed, entered, the ministry and called to the bishopric from the Boston district, in a stato whero the indigenous products are granite, izo and men; and he ex- pressed his unbounded faith in the re- sources of Nebraska and its future. He exhorted the people who are laying the foundations of the state to base them upon christianity and emphasized the necessity of Christian educational insti- tutions. At the conclusion of the address, which was most favorably received, the people were presented to the bishop, who recoived them very kindly. Presiding Elder Maxfield announced that the bishop would preach in the First M. E, church on Sunday morning, and the south M. E. church in the evening, and the bishop added an invitation to the parents Lo bring their children. The bishop goes from this city to hold aseries of educational conventions as follows: York, Wednesday, August 27; Lincoln, Thursday, August 28; Beatrice, Friday, August 20; Nebraska City. Sat- urday and Sunday August 30 and 31; I" PLOUGHING THE BILLOWS. The Lest of the Mis Standishes @ Nebraska Farmer, Visit to His Pleasant Home in Cass County. The Descendant of the Illustrious Puritan Oaptain, Tn one of the loveliest portions of fair and tertile Cass county, about twenty miles from the thriving little city of Plattemouth, therc lives a young farmer who, though in humble circumstances, can trace his ancestry back further than many of the aristocratic citizens of the Hub., He bears the famous name of Miles Standish, the illustrous captain who came over in the Mayflower, and is of the eighth generation of that name, counting down from the date of the landing at Plymouth Rock, When, less than three centuries ago a little fair haired child was playing among the hedgerows of England, who was des- tined to learn the art of war and be a tower of defense to the unsoldierly col- ony of Protestant America, who would have dreamed of the romantic future and tho imperishable famo which awaited him. Much less could Capt. Miles and “‘his beloved RRose” have believed that before those three centnries had closed another “little fair haired boy” the ninth generation of their family, would first see light heneath the sunny skies of the Far West and play among the flower laden praivies of the then unknown trans- Missouri country. Yet one of these appar- ent impossibilities has been realized and the other is likely to for the young Cass county farmer married a young Noebraska girl SHHAEE year ago and it will be strange if he is not called upon to chris- ten the ninth Miles Standish before the snow flies, The fact that the last of the Standishes was located in 8o remote a quarter from the family birthplace, was learned through the genial gentleman and inde- fatigable insurance man, Mr. R. J. John- son, of this city, whose territory includes Cass county and he has a splendid fac- ulty of discerning a good news item when he sees it. At his invitation a drive was taken one lovely Sabbath morning out to the farm and home of the subject of this article, The drive was through ono of the handsomest pieces Red Cloud, Monday, September 1; Koar- ney, Tuesday, Soptember 2.

A Number of Ponca Indians Oall Upon Julius Meyer on Their Way to Visit the Omanas, Friday fourteen Ponca Indians ar- rived in this city and called upon Julius Meyer. Among the number was Chiefs Yellow Horse, Standing Bear and Run- ning Antelope. They were accompanied by eleven braves, solected from the fribe. Mr. Meyer is a groat favorite with the Indians, and last night he entertained the Poncas in princely style, They were invited to his rooms where a grand fenst. was spread before them and of which they partook with much relish. They are on their way to visit the Omaha Indians, who recently returned from Burope. They had with them many rich presents which thoy will bestow upon the Omaha braves, ———— Tne Region of the Congo, The exploration of this part of Africs opens up a vast field for American com- merce.

Allen brought down from Dixon county a man named Ed Davis, charged with impersonating & United States revenue ofticer. Davis had been working his scheme for some time in and around FPonea but had not been very successful, His systom was to visit the various persons, whose duty it was to comply with certain require- ments of the United States statutes and represent to them they were laying themselves liable for violating the law, He would then state for a small sum he would set them all right with the government, He suc- ceeded in beating one man out of §25, and an arrangement had been made to meet a secoud one, who had promised to offact a **settlement” by paying £40, but Davis was arcested by the deputy mar- shall beforo he reccived the money. Davis had in his possession several railway passes, which represented him as a correspandent of the Northern Pucific Railway Journal, He was placed the county jall and his examination will take place today belore U, 8, Commis- sioner Giustave Anderson. Davis signi- fied his williugness to Deputy Sherlg Allen to plead guilty to the charge pre fored against him 1if by so doing he would lessen the term of his sentence The penalty for this offence is from one to five years' imprisonment. —e— Dissolution Notice, The firm of E, Motz & Co. has been desolved by mutual consent, Mr. A Levi has retired, and Mr. E. Motz will con- tinue the business at the old sund. E, Morz, of farming country in the state, and in the heart of Cass county. Leaving the bold bluffs which at this point guard the Nebraska shore, the way lies across a rolling pralrie undulations extend as far as the eye can reach, until finally, they are lost in the horizon. The hills and valleys involuntarily remind one of the stormy ocean o’er whose tubulent bosom the little bark bore her precious load of passengers, but a magic wand has solidi- fied the waves and instead of snowy caps from each crest now glistens only the tassels of growing corn. The trough of the inland sea no longer threatens des- truction, but through it, between broad rich meadow lands and fields of ripening maize, flows the sparkling stream that gives li e to the land and refreshes its inhabitants, Notwithstanding his guide's familiarity with the county gen- erally, it seemed at times as if a chart and ~ compass would be a good thing to aid in piloting the reporter to the spot sought. Fences aro not the style here and when you are directed to ¢o to the next corner, north, turn to the left and drive to the third corner and then turn south two corners,” with not a sign of a fence corner to be seen it looks like a vague intimation to tako a tumble to yourseli. After going out ot our course several times and doubling over several miles of the road the residence of Mr, Fred Terryberry, one of the wealthiest and most success ful farmers in the country, was reached. His home is a model western one and the plain, one-story dwelling is sur- rounded by granaries bursting with old corn, pens filled with American hogs that even Bismarck could not object to, and stables containing cattle and horses that are true types of the fine Nebraska breeds. Inside the house the most im- proved farming implements are only less attractive than the fine piano in an ad- joining room and a whole arsenal of guns in one corner leads to the statement that Mr. Terry-berry made his first money by hunting ‘and got his amunition out of the trunk of an old tree by the aid of a jack knife. After a grand dinner which was greatly relished an hour was spent in luoking over the fabulous treasures of corn, grain, etc., and then, with better directions as to the route, another start was taken for Standish’s place, which is rented from Mr. Terryborry, a great admirer of his young tenant’s energy and pluck. At lnst,it was_reached and asconding a gon- tlo elevation the buggy was drawn up at the door of the house, on the steps of which stood Miles himself. Longfellow in describing the bold New England warrior, says howaa*‘short of atature, strongly built and athletic, broad shouldered and deep chested. Brown as a nut was his face and russet his beard,” and, with the ex- ception of the beard, which as yet only shows itself by a brown moustache, the poet has painted a very accurate picture of his successor. Young Miles is cosily if not luxuriously fixed in his new home and blessed with a charming young wife his life is no doubt a happy one. In searching among the circuitous roads which led to the house, the only resort had been continual interrogation of the farmers thereabout,and in 8o doing much was heard concerning Miles and his life, 80 that it is safe to say that he will real- izo the wish of the historian in the dedi- cation of his *‘Life of Miles Standish,the Puritan Captain,” This reads: T the descendants of Capt, Miles Standish, now numbering thousands, this yolume is ro speetfully inscribed, with the hope that no one of them may ever dim the luster of that nam to which their distivguished ancestor has at tached imperishalle renown.” The name will not be tarnished in this generation. The visitors were invited into the little farm-house aud made quite a call during which the talk was largely upon the sub- ject in 1 aestion and the memoranda kept by the host himself. This Jed to a gen- eral consideration of the voyage and life of Capt. Miles Standish, and though that is made familiar to all our readers, by both the historian and poet, a few in- cidents will be found of interest. The latter says Capt, Miles Standish “‘was a gentloman born, and could trace his ped- izraco plainly back to Hugh Standish, of i Duxbury Hall, in Lancashire, England. Hugh was the son of Ralph and the grandson of Thurston de Stan- ‘heir unto vast estates family records show that the income on the estate belong to the two families was half a million dollars a year, which had they fallen to the legitimate heirs would have made the descendants of the puri tan soldier among the richest men in Am- erica to-day. In fact, not only back to the days ot Thurston de Standish but back to the thirteenth century can be traced the rank and opulence of the fam- ily. It is probable that the diversion of the estate arose from the religious «quar- rel growing out of the bitter feeling caused by the passage of the ‘‘Act of Conformity” in 1569 by Queen Elizabeth after which there were two families, the Catholic branch, hailing from *‘Stan- dish Hall,” and the Protestant branch from “Duxbury Hall,” Capt. Miles de- scending, of course, from the latter and leaving the service of Great Britain to come with the Pidgrim fathers and aid in establishing religious freedom in America, The eldest sons, from Thurston de Standish down to the latest were: Ralph, Hugh, Miles, Alexander, Miles, Miles, Milee, Miles, Alfred, Noah, In accord- ance with the will of Capt. Standish, the records, heirlooms, and other property descend to the eldest Miles Standish of each generation, hut at his death do not at once become the property of tho next Miles,going instead to the eldest remain- ing member of that generation and thence detcending,: according to the age of the survivors, until the generation is extinct. Thepropertynowgoes toourMilesStandish following the death of the last remain- ing brother or sister of Alfred, his father and no baby Miles would be entitled to the treasures until his uncles and aunt had all passed in their checks, Among the relics each then come into possession of are to be noted, a peir of brass *‘fire dogs” used on board the Mayflower, and @ pair of silver sloove:-buttons worn by the captain on the voyage—the latter are diamond-shaped and each composed of two similar pieces, connected through the cuff by a slender silver link, The present MILES STANDISH, was born in Beaver county Penna., June 20th 1857, and learned the trade of wagon maker with his father. In March 1876, he removed to Cass county with his uncle, and there worked three years as a common farm hand, after which, having saved up some money, he purchased & team, and rent- ing a farm began life for himself, taking as his helpmate Rachel, daughter of Jacob McNurlin, 8 wealthy farmer in that neighborhood. Now, fairly launched upon the voyage of life he has prospects of a different life from that of Rose's husband. He does not contemplate the hardships of the wilderness cr conflicts with ferocious savages, desolation about him and pros- pective famine, On the other hand the Nebraska hills will soon be yellow with their weight of golden corn, whose “goodly ears and golden kernals,” if no better than those discovered by Capt. Standish in the old Indian mounds, will yield their hundreds of thousands of bushels where the former was but a few kettles full to save the starving colon- ists. If Miles the farmer cannot ac- complish the knightly deeds of his an- costor yot shall leave a reputation for the same honorable, buld and generous nature as had the friend of Massasoit and be a3 brave as him whose name is writ- ten in the old church records at Chorley “Milo Standanaut,” he will but add another to the long and illustrious list of ancestors bequeathed his posterity by Captain Miles Standish. Bidding our host good-bye, as the shadows lengthened across tho prairie,the city of Plattemouth wos reached late at night, after having crowned the pleasure of the day with a visit to the hospitable mansion of Mr, Jacob Vallery, who pressed additional favors on the hungry and tired news-seekers, and sent them on their way refreshed Absolutely Pure.
