Policemen Buckl.y and Ruane Indnlce in 4 Slogging Mated, The Palace Saloon’ the Scene of the Battle, Which Lasted for Four Rounds. The police force is supposed to guard the peace of the clty and see that the bum element does not override the laws of the city, but it seems that even the bum element will creep iato the police force, and men who wear blue coats and brass buttons are not always to be de- pended upon as peacaful and law-abiding citizens, This fact was verified yesterday morn- ingina row which took place in the Palace saloon on Farnam street. About 4:30, only a short time bofore roll call, Officer Buckley, whose beat was on Doug- las street, was standing at the bar of the above named saloon drinking & New Year's egg-nog. Officer Ruane, whose beat was on South Thirteenth etreet, en- tered the place and began abusing Buck- ley. Buckley turned his back upon Ruane ard procseded to drink his *‘hot stuff. Just as he turned his back Ruaue struck him upon the head with his fiss, It was a heavy blow and the egg-nog went one way and the *‘cop” the other. Buck- ley quickly regalned his feot and faced Ruane in true pugilistic etyle. They battered each other's faces forja while when Rusne clincned nis opponent and both went to the floor. This ended the first round, and both men got upon their feet and after remov- ing their ovescoats, made for each other again, In_ this way four rounds were fought, and at the end of the battle both men were out of breath and pretty badly bruised up it the face, and the battle was declaed A During the last’ round the fighters got up into one of the large front windows, and had it not been for Billy McCune would have gone through the large plate- glass front. No one knows what had passed between the two men before they met into the sa- loon, but iv has been supposed for some time that there was bad blood betwee them and that they would fight sooneors Iater, Buckley has had several fight since he has been upon the force an Ruane is somewhat inclined to bea bully. Both of the men were off their beats at the time of the fight and were violating the police rules. They have both been suspended by the marshal and the matter will be investi gated by the committee on police. It s quite probable that the pugilists will be retired from the force. —— A New Deal, A new deal hrs be:n instituted at the Puxton hotel. The two ladies who have heretofore been engaged in the office have been relieved from duty and Mr, Kibbe, who has been acling in the clplc-l county, ebr, ity of clerk is now cashier and book keeper, and Mr, Henshaw succeeds Mr. Kibbe as clerk. The two assisted by the old standby, Mr. Hull, will make a strong team, and the Paxton under this new order of things wil‘ be more popular than ever. A SERIOUS TUMBLE. Assistant Ohief Galligan Falls Through an Elevator Shaft, Wednesday night during the fire In the steam laundry butlding, Assistant Chief Galligan, of the fire department, suffered serious injurles by a fall through the ele- vator shaft. The elevator was up on the third floor when the fire began, but the rope which held the platform burned off and it dropped to the basement.

The Bee eKepers’ association of Ne- braska will hold its annual meeting at Tecumseh on January 14th, Action will be taken in regard to *Foul Brood” with the object of obtaining legislation on the subject. This plague hss obtained such propor- tlons as to threaten the entire destruction of the Bee Keepers’ industry. “Foul Brood,” as it is called, is & germ dlseasp that attacks the bee in every stage of development, but it more espect- ally affects the larva, Svhen the plague appears in a colony, the larva, or young bees are speedily destroyed, and the stench produced is &0 great that there is 0o lisbility of mistaking the cause of the trouble. 1Tnits ravages and violence it strongly resembles cholera among men. The germs impregnate the queen, and atl the eggs produced by her afterwards are diseased and the young brood quickly perishes, The honey is diseased and serves to spread the gorms of the plague. evening, the following officers were duly. installed: John J.

It made its firat appearance in the United States In 1830 and from that year until 1850 1ts ravages were unparalleled, whole apiar- ies were swept away leaving not one out of thousands, 1thas only been during the past three or four years that any curative methods have been known and not until the past yoar have any proved satisfactory and that only in the hands of thoroughly sclantific apiariste, Mich- igan and Utah recognizing the value of tie honey product and the importance of its production, have passed laws cowmpell- ing the destruction by fire of all affected colonies.

Owing to the large shipments of honcy from the Pacific coast, containing the goms of the disease, it is more . than likely that the plague will break ont at other points. It 18 very important that the legislature of this siate should pass laws te restrain, as far s possible, the spread of the disease. To recognize the importange of the bee- koepng industry it is only necessary to note that in 1878 the serplus production of honey amounted io twelve tons, in 1883 it had grown to %00 tons, E, B, varter the Wecl; At the meeting of Omaha Chapter, No of a Badge, 1, Royal Arch Masons, held Tueaday ANDREWS' iwo URE CREAM TARTAR. 00Q¢.
