OMAHA DAILY = ——— TEXAS CATTLE FRVER, This Diseaso Making 1ts Appearance in this County, Word was brought to this city yester- day hy a veterinary surgeon that the Texas cattio feyer had broken out in this counly. The Fruens, who are large nat- tle dealers in the west, drove a herd, numbering 300, from some point near the Daikota line, through Valentine and Into Douglas county, near Waterloo, Sinco their arrival there about fifty head have become infected by this southern disease and nineteen have died. The presence of this fover is explained by tha fact that the herd was driven across some of the Texas cattle trails when the disease was contracted. Purgatives and the other common reme- dios have been applied and it is now thought no more will be lost. No fears are ontertalned by cattio men as past ex- perience has taught them that this disease among natives does not not inoo- ulate others with which they herd. e —— Seal of North Carolina Smoking ro- bacco is the best. e —— The Railroad Man's Fate, The conductor on the Kansas City train which arrives in this city a little after 7 p. m, met with an accident at Pa Junction last evening, causing him the loss of his leftleg. Whilo mak- ing up his train at that place he was standihg on a box on the rear end of the rear coach, pulling through the bell-rope. The box slipped and he was thrown from the car. He attempted to save him- self by clinging on the bell-rope, but that broke and the moving train ran over his loft leg crushing it, His place on the train was filled by one of the crew, and it arrived in this city nearly three hours behind time. The conductor, whoso name is Foster, lives in Pacific Junction, ——— MUSICA AND DRAMATIO. & TLotta is dangerously ill with pnenmonia., Bret Harte’s youngest son is going on the stage. Mme.

Ono of the robbers was killed and another crawled off and died. Al the surviving brigands were captured,and are now in state service at the Carson prison. When the express car returned to Reno, on the way to Sacremento to be repaired, it v-as dubbed *‘Fort Ross.” It looked asif it had had an altercation with a shot tower. The doors were closely perforated with bullets, and shots had gone through it in all directions, When the car came back on the road it looked like new, but it was still the same old car, After a fow days Ross noticed strange noises in it, while he was maklng hisrun, altogether different from the ordinary rattle of a car. Packages of exprers mat- ter danced about, occasionally giving him a whack on_the nose, while a box would waltz up behind and hoiat him vigor- ously. This continued for some weeks, until Ross became very nervous and fidgety. *“‘He would face the devil in material form, but he aidn’t understand spooks at all.” Every time he passed Monticello, whero the robber was killed, the lights would go out as soon as the conductor cried ‘‘All aboard,” and by no effort of his could he light them uatil he arrived at the next station. Daring this time the car appeared filled with a lurld haze, by which he could see two vapory forms trying to pry open the express bexes and peeking into packages, Once in a while he would blaze away at them with his revolver, but it was wasting powder: the spooks went on with their work. While stand- ing at his desk one night, the train going forty miles an hour, he was seized and thrown down by invisible assailants, and though a giant in strength, was tossed about the car like a feather in a gale. Ross said the car would sometimes run for miles without touching the track, then it would come down with a smash that sent him to the floor. He would hear whistles for stations that were miles away, and frequently there would be a hubbub as if the whole train had jumped the track. At last the ghost businets worked up- on the old man so that he trembled when he boarded his car, and became 8o nerv- ous that he threw up s situation which had been obtained by years of faithful service, and went to drive Wells Fargo s delivery wagon at Ogden. He was really run out of a fine position by spooks ————— The dunay Side of 1, Let us bo sunshiny if we can, But if we have dyspepsia &nd liver complaint and rheumatisin and eeveral other ail- ments, how can we?
