Lows Globe Democrat, The falr grounds were in their prettiest and most attractlve shape yesterday afternoon when & Globe-Democrat re- porter strolled in through the main en- trance in search of recreation, The alr was bracing, and tha grass glistene the warm sunlight with strength that added greater brilllancy to the verdure. Avolding the carnivora as he would a can of dynamite, the visitor approached a greater danger, which he realized when startled by u cry of alarm, An enraged buffalo came charglog toward him with lowered head and blazing eyes. The shaggy mane floated in the breeze and his mad oareer was checked only by a larlat, which trallsd in the dust. The eavage animal was one ef the twenty-five used in the rehearsal of Life on the Plains, and had escaped with the lasso through the sudden snapping of a saddlo girth. Big Dick Johnson, the giant captaln of the cowboys, had captured the veteran, whose acquaintance with the larlat dated back only three weeks ago, on the plains of Nebraska, He grew furious in his terrible struggle and in a quick dash es- osped. Tho rest of the drove stampeded, and then in the vast grounds ocourred one of the most thrilling scenes ever witnessed, Nearly two ecore of boffalo tore up the ground In theic frantic efforts to follow old Benn, the leader of the herd. The cowboys trled a round-up, and these tactics not snswering prompily, they adopted & most effectlve means of settlement. In a sec- ond fifty larlats whigzed in the aio, fifty nooses fell wi'h a shrill whistle that sounded a death knell, and ten of the buffalo lay prostrate on the ground, with thelr fore and hind legs tied securely in the unylelding la A wild chase en- sued, as the oth ffalo, having once cented freedom, seemed bound to es- cape. Around and around the grounds they circled, meeting the high fence on all sides, and tramping down lesser obetruc tions, But the Mexican vaquercs were close behind. Two of the baffslo, blinded by their fury, were rushlog dlrecily into vhe saloon of the House of Public Oomfort. Destruction seemed Inevitable, The stood on the counter with a level H about to fire, San Pedro Buenevista, prince of the bull-tight challenged him with a force of his vaqueros. One moment more and the two monarchs of the plains lay with heaving sides and dis- tended nostrlls on the floor, surrounded with broken tables and chairs. San Pedro Buenevists and his band had come In tme and with s difi cult low horizontal throw had galoed a victory. The others were tared with less trouble, and the rehear:al continued ss if nothing had happene1. The Indlans who assisted chattered and grioned as if the whole affalr was a b joke,and Col, McCaffurty pac zestauratenr with a double more than repaid the dewmage. was learned from the epiacae and gr precautions were adopted to guard agalost 8 similar scene at the opening ex- huibltion t)-morrow a'ternoon. “Trouble is anticlpated,” said Tex Jack, with a dabious shake «f hix o “and Lonly whh we bad liwe to tyme theee big f.llows who sve fresh from the §lalns and vgly erluters to tackle.” HOOK AND LADDER BOYS. fhe 0 Pioneer Company on fhe Eve of Dishandment, The Grana Parade to Take To-Morrow Afternoon at Two O'clock, The old Pioneer Hook and Ladder company Is on the eve of disbandment, This is the oldest organization of Its kind in Omaha, and for twenty-five years the company has been a fixtare of the fire department of this city, Dauring all this time there has not been a fire in Omaha but what this company has been present and at all times has rendered valuable aa- slstance, It ls to be regretted that the old company Ia to beoome a thing of the past but while the progress of the growing clty of Omaha demands that s pald com pany should be engaged to carry on the work begun and faithtully attended to by the volunteers, the ready and willing splrit which has always characterlzed the members of the Pioneer company will re- main bright upon the annals of time and after years have past and gone, the de. ssendants of the old company will polnt with justifiable pride to the herolc deeds old compt are now prominent and Inflaential bue ness men in this clty, and while they ! have long since withdrawn from the ranks of active service, their faces glow and thelr blood chases through thelr velns at the mention of the name of the old company. All honor to thoss who have for years battled with the fiery fiend to save the property of frlend and foe allke, and may their varlous paths through life be strewn with the roses of prosperity and may the sharp points of the thorns of adversity be cashloned with the beds of peace and joy.

Yesterday morning a twelve-year-old boy, son of Mrs. R, S. Willlams, who lives out near the stock yards, was taken to St. Joseph’s hospltal and admitted to one of the wards for care and treatment, The mother and a slster were with him, but they appeared to be perfectly ignorant of the litle fellow's trouble and were greatly frightened. Dr. Galbralth was sent for immediately, and on arrlving at the hospltal and seelng the patlent pro- nounced hls case hydrophobla, It was then learned that about six weeks sgo the boy was itten in hisleft hand by a viclons dog, and ever slnce has been disabled by the sorenes produced therefrom through his arm, breastand shoulders, Hestates that the dog was gnawing at a bone, and as he approached tho animal 1t started madly towards him, He had hls gun along at the time and shot at the dog, but missed his mark, and the mext instant was sufferlng with a torn, lascerated hand, Saturday last the boy commenced to vomit and bave spasms, and refused to take'food, In fact he ha» not eaten a mouthful since Friday. When seen by the doctor th morning his eyes were wild and staring; body constantly quivering and jerking, and the least breath of alr would throw bim into a violent spasm. The dootor held =& glass of water before his eyes, and that set him raving crazy. Dr. Gailbralth called in Drs Bryantand Ayers to consult with him on nd they readily agreed that the symptoms are those of hydrophoblis, The case is a very sad one, from the fact that the boy s a very bright, intelligent and handsome little fellow. Coughs, Cold and Sore Throat yleld readily to B. H. Douglass & Sons’ Oap- barn Cough Drops. Sells Bros, Big Shows, The following letter from a reporter who has seen that big show Is timely be- cause the Sells Bros, monster enterprise will exhibit at Omaha on Sat. May 16th. Were we to print the letter In full it would occupy two columns, The extract is to the polnt: Everybody went to the show yesterday night, and everybody went ed. T was Informed by one of bat the date of the show's has been detinltely settled, and 1t will now appear in Omaha on Bat. May 16 Splendid speclmens of the glraffe fami- Iy, the cnly cnes, I am pure, now on e libition; & mounster two horaed rhinocer- o, the only coal black African lons, and THE DAILY BEE --TUESDAY, MAY 5, 1885 the largest of glant elephants, were to be ween as some of the speclal featuros of the big show. The greatest and most won derfal sight, however, and one which completely eclipses everything exhiblted is the huge palr of blood-sweating hippo. potami—without any manner of doubt the only pair of their kind on exhibition in the world. One thing which was par- tleulatly pleasing wan the fact that there was more to be seen than there was ad: vertised —something very unusual with a olrcus, Had they advertised an all- inclading menngerle they would have hit the mark, The ring, or, rather, to be more oxpllclt, the many-ring performance was slmply excellent; It never was and never will be beaten. Such riding! Jerenimo Bell! You've seen Bell—everybody has, Well, Bell, the world's champlon, led the riding, fol- lowed by Madame Cordons, Frank H. Gardoer, Mr. Wm. Sells, and, In fact, twonty other champions, each a star. There {s not a aingle bad act, nor any- thing like a bad in the whole show. The rlding Is, of course, but one line of the performance, which Includes every- thing under the sun In the circus line, There are altogether 200 all-star artlats, glving six acts at one time—In the alr, on horseback, and In the rings—a most wonderfal performange. I will name a fow of the performors; the names need but be mentioned. There Is the Stirk Family, Europe’sgreatest bloycllats, whose equals cannot be found; there are the Leslio Brothers, head balancera; the Romalis, the Donaldsons, Ada Purvls, M’lle Maretts, the American Trlo, etc. In short, fully 200, Every act Is a show in {tse] I find that my limited space will not permit me to give a dotailed count, and so I must close by saying that all In all, the beat I have ever wit- ssed. Our readers will perceive from the above that ounr correspondent not only went to the show, but returned home delighted. —— Smoke Seal of North Carolina To- baceo.

Leach, well-known in this city, writes to friends in this clty from ‘‘St. Vincent's Hospltal, Portland, Ore- gon,” under date of April 20, giving an account of his experlence in a wreck. “On February 12," writes Mr. Leach, ‘“‘we struck another plece of bad luck in runnfog into a land slide which came down the mountaln side. The engine struck the obatruction, and was hurled Into the Columbia river, and took me with her, The cab was smashed to splinters. The d dome were torn off and the jacket also. Every cock on the boller, except the water glass cooks, were broken off, letting steam and water upon me, scalding me from head to foot. There was very little hope for me at first, but with good care and having a good constitution I am nearly well now, but am in.the hospital. The acci- dent occurred about sixty-three miles from Portland, and while I was walting for an engine to come from Portiand to ot the caboose. I suffered a thonsand eaths, I expect to get out about the 1ot of May. The “Oregonlan” gives the following account of the wreck: ‘‘There were three men on the engine at the time of the accldent, the engineer, the fireman George C. Leach, and a pastenger, John Day. The _engineer escaped almost unhurt. Leach, some way which he could not explain, was held in the cab and very severely scalded by escaping steam. The entlre coating of skin from forehead to heels was scalded off. Day was thrown Into the river about 100 feet from shore, and was se- verely siunned. Besldes, he could swim but very little; so he floundered in the water and rank. Leach, who by this time had extricated himeelf from the cab, unmindfal of his own terrible paln, swam to Day, dived for him and brought him safely to shore. The Injured man was attended soon after the accldent by Dr. Blalock and brought to this city by a special englne. He is now at St. Vin. cent’s under the care of Dr. A. D, Beran. His condition does not Indicate that he inhaled enough steam to create Internal compllcations, and he msy pull through. He is a brave man, full of clear grit, and ought to live. Absolutely Pure.

The Advantage of Settling in ths New Towa The title “South Omaha” doesnot mean the southern part of the city of Omaha.but is the name of the thriving town commencing at the Union Stock yards on the south, and extend ing for a mile and a balf north, nearly connecting with thecity limits of Omaha. The company have again concluded to put on sale 1,000 lots, and let the purchasers of the same realize the profit which the enhanced value of thess lot 1s sure to make, It now being an assured fact that South Omaha is destined—in the near future—to be the largest live stock market west of Chicago, there can be no doubt that this property in a few years will bo worth five or even ten times tho amount thatit can be bought for to-day, ‘Some may ask: 1If this is 80, why dc not the company keep it and realize this profit The snswer i#, that in order to make lots valuable, there must be improvements on or sur rounding them, and ns is the case in all new towns, special inducements must be offered first to get the paople to take hold and build, There are probably more such inducements offered by South Omaha than were ever pu forth by any new town. The large business done by the stock yards company and the im- ‘mense alsughter and packing houses together with their auxilaries are no small feature in i1t sapgregate of events that are destined to make Sonth Omaha a large place. Again, the town is not an addition to Omaha, and is not liable for city taxes, although it enjoys all the benefits from the growth of Omaha that it would if it wero just INSIOE the city limits, but being just 0UTSIDE, only county taxes are collacted, which are merely nomical, —The town owni and operates its own water works, which furnish an abundant nus»ply of pure spring water, Dum- my trains will ron on the B, & M. aud,U, P, railways every hour, stopping at the north end town site as well as at the stock yards, ~ The Thirteonth stroot horse cars will run to 1 park this spring, and to the stock yards at no distant day.
