[ i ;! - "IN OPEN COURT, Platle Judge Brewer Decides Connty Tex Sni The Douglas Coun the y Jury in Clark Cass Still Oat UNITED STATES COURTS In the Unlted States clrcuit court yes- terday Judge Brewer rendered his opinion in the case of the Union Pacitic Railway company against Platte county, argued on Thursday by Hon. A. J. Pop pleton for the plaintiff, and Hon, W, H. Munger for the defendant. The court dismissed the bill praying for an injunction as to all lands conveyed by deed prior to the bringing of the suit, and also for the taxes of 1881 upon all lands upon which the survey fees were paid pilor to the levy in July of that year, From this part of the decisi‘n the plaintiff appeals. Upon Mr. Munger's constraction of the charter that there were no survey foes as the land had been surveyed prior to the passage of the act granting the lande, the fees mentioned in said act be- ing only such as were necessary after the passage of the act, Judge Brewer held that the government and rallway company having acted upon a [different construc- tlon upon the grant, third parties were bound by such construction. From this part of the opinion the defendant will appeal. This decision of the court holds aa valid about $3,600 of taxes which the plaintiff kas always contended were other- wise. A groat portion of the day was con- sumed by the argument in the case ol Lalk and others, against Esler and others, in which the plaintiff seeks to enjoin the enforcement of the judgment in the ceve of Esler against Hogue, rendered at the May torm of court. The property in- volved in this suit iasome three blocks of land in Loup City, Sherman county, in this state. The grand jury was busily at work all day, but made no presentments, DISTRICT COURT, The jury in the case of Nelson against the Missouri Pacific railway, tried before Judge Wakeley, yesterday rendered a ver- dict tor defendent without leaving the box under instructions from the court, Before Judge Neville, the case of the state against Clark indicted for obtaining money undea false pretences was submit- teéd to the jury at 5 p. m. The defense & relied upon is ‘‘mistaken identity.” The defendant claims that it was his brother who committed the offense, The crime consisted in obtalning from dohn Edwards the sum of §100 by false representation. The jury at 2 oiclock this morning ware still ont. On Monday the cise against John F. Behm wi!l be taken up. POLICE COURT, A, Allendori was fined 85 for being guilty of assault and battery. The case of the state azalnst Dug Ma- guire for tho larceny of bread ticke(s and tobacco from C. F. Elsaser & Son, ba- kers, was continued until to-day on the statement of the defendant that he had & cenfederate, whom the policeintend to est. When young Maguirs was ched in the police atation a letter from his'girl in North Piatte was found upon him, stating that there were no police in that city, and asking him to come out and “‘work” the town. John F. Dierks, agatnst- whom a com- laint was sworn out by F. C. Festner on hursday, could not be found yesterday. It 1s presumed by the police that he was notified, by some means, of his intended apprehension, and left the city Thursday night. — Do not be deceived; ask for and take only B, H.

The Lard Refinery Rebuilt—The Iler Still-House Approaching Completiol The work of rebuilding the ller still- house is being pushed rapidly. The walls have been raised to the desired height and the elovator has been made one story higher, The *“Jarvis” column has come from Chlcago and nearly all the machinery nocessary is on ths ground, All damaged apparatus or ma- chinery has given way to new, and to moroe fully protect this great plant its outer walls have been covered with corru- gated iron, During all the time since the fire, distilling in a small way has been kept up to provide food for the cattle. It will be some time before the huuse will b fully completed, but the works will begin running their full capacity next week, THE NEW REFINERY, The works of the Omaha Lard Refin- ery company, totally destroyed by fire last summer, have been rebuilt by ~Fair- banks & Oo., of Chicago. The capacity has been more than doubled and the buildings have been built entirely of brick. The machinery was started this week and an improved apparatus will manufacture soap, butterine, and refined lard.

T —— The Spivitual Lords, Freeman, in the Contemporary Review, The exact position of the epiritual lords is at this moment a very singular one. Their seats In parliament have been objected to on many and very dif- ferent grounds, They are objected to, quite reasonably from his point of view, by the Nonconformists seeking for the diseatablishment of the church., 'They are objected to, no less reasonably trom his point of view, by the zealous church- man, whose idea of the bishop’s ofiize .is 80 high that he regrets to see those who hold it mixed up with worldly affaira at all. But there 1s something to be said on the otherside. If there is to be any house of lords at all, we cannot afford to turn the bishops out of it till we have some other visible class of non-hereditary lords to put in their places. Two or three Lordsof Appeal in Ordinary are not enough. Strange as it may seem, the Bishops are the only class of men who keep their seats in Parl ment by the old traditionary right of En- glish freemen to appear in person in the Assembly of his people, They have kept what otuers have lost. In theory we might say the same of the Harls; but the Earldoms have utterly lost their ancient character—they have become simply one rank in the hereditary peerage. The Earl, with his {llustrious Scandinavian title, really differs in nothing from the French Marquess who walks before him and the French Viscount whe walks after him, But the Bishops still hold the same seats by the same ten- ure as when Anselm braved the wrath of Rufue, not for ecclesiastical privilego, but for moral right—as when Stephen Lang- don read out the charter of Henry, and wrung its more than renewal from John —a8 when Edmund, meek and ascetic ag Anselm, could withstand king and pope alike in the cause of English freadom. L the bishops’ seats had been taken at any moment up to the present, it would have been simply giving up the innermost de- fense of the fortress to its assailants. It would have been setting the final seal to the long encroachments of the exclusive hereditary doctrine. In any more gen- eral consideration of the whole subject, this ma'ter, like others, will have to be thought over. ——— Hood’s Sarsaparilla, acting through the blood, reaches every part of the system, and in this way positively cures catarrh. e — Hereqity in ¥y Indianapolis Journal, When both parents have eyes of tho same color 89 per cent ¢f the children follow their parents in this feature, and of the 12 per cent born with eyes other than the parental color a part must be attributed to intermittent heredlty.

Ho related the experionce of Dr. Pavey, who was adrift on an ice floe in the polar sea for two days. Dr. Pavey and his party followed the route of the English expedition, being desirous of reaching a point further north in the sxme direction than the English had, but after leaving the land of Cape Joseph Henry a sovero storm ocourred, broaking the ice up into many floes. Dr, Pavey fell into the water, but succeeded in climbing on one of the floep, and was drifted about for two days uutil the current carried the floe to the shore. Speaking of the retreat from Fort Con- gor, Sorgt. Brainerd said the groatest care was exercised to carry nothing but what was absolutely neceseary, and even that carried was reduced to its minimum weight; tent-poles were whittled down until they had barely strength enough re- inaining fo support tho tent, and even ihe edges of the sleeping bags were cut off in order that they would not only have less weight, but als) take up less space, He said that the statement which had been published that Greely loaded more coal on ths steam launch than was neceelary, and neglected to carry provia- ions instead, and that there wero several tons of coal left in the launch when it was abandoned was not true; that every- thing put In the launch was weighed with the greatest nicety, taking into considera- tion the length of time it would take them to reach Cape Sabine. So exact was the calculation that when they abandoned the launch thero was only one or two shovels full of coal re- maining. In leaving Fort Conger thero was not the slightest doubt but that they would find at Uape Sabine an abundance of provisions, if not a vessel waiting for them, but they also thought it probable that the launch would be crushed in the " |ice and the party compeiled to return to Fort Congor for the winter. In such an ovent they would havo started the fol- lowing spring and returned overland. Thero wero onough provisions at Fort Conger to have kept them during the winter, but the supply of fuel had been exhausted, and more would have to bo mined from a coal mine in the viclnity, The dogs had been used for hauling the eleds, and instead of killing them, as had boen suggested when they were about to leave the etation, decided to let them live and to leavo open for them threo | months’ provisions, as in case the party returned the dogs would have been in- valuable, Sergt.
