Ernest Smith was walking along Broadway near Pearl street yesterday afternoon when he discovered’ right at his feet an clegant gold watch aud chain, evidently dropped by some lady. Later in the day he found the owner, Miss Laura Brenneman, to whom the prop- erty was returned. John H. Nichols and Sarah A. Henny sre_joyfully joined on Monday even- ing, Rev. G. W.

Frainey and Mr. V I'ulmm D. . H. Grimmermann was called in the superior court yesterduy morning to answer to the crime of larceny. The crime alleged is the taking of wood, val- ued at #1, from the coal and wood yards of D. B. Gleason. The defendant asked for trial by jury, which right the court recognized, but from the fact that the jury has been discharged for this term the case wa§ put over till next term, which begins March 7. Scott - Williams appeared for the defendant. That *‘a prophet is not without honor save in his own country,” is again dem- onstrated in the case of the Rev. H. A. Reichenbach, pastor of the Danish Bap- tist church, of this city. Among his clerical associates his abilities as a com- poser and writer are fully recognized, but outside of these he is very little known. During the past few years he has translated into his own fimgungn and compiled three volumes of sacred song. The last one is just out, and is said to be the best work of its kind in existence. His work has placed him not only among our most finished scholars but our purest poets as well. The county treasurer's office is the most favorable place to hear blueish talk. Just now there is a constant stream of callers, some wanting to pay their taxes, oth wanting to know how much they ar The taxes reach up to nearly 7 per cent., which seems tremendous. Few stop to consider that the assessed valuation is so much less than the real valuation that the actual per cent. of taxation is not so great after all. They simply look at the assessed valuation, and then at the amount of taxes, and groan. The city is fast getting in shape to welcome some new method of assessment. The county treasurer and his assistants need much patience these days, as few of the callers realize that they have nothing to do with fixing the amount of the tax, but it is theirs simply to collect, . —— ‘Wanted—A good, first-class harness maker.

When the Weil clothing store went into bankruptcy Henry Levy came here to take charge of the stock and superin- tend the closing of the business. He is now involved in a little complication which may cause him serious trouble. The difficulty as given by the various ersons interested is as follows: The ys at the store were in the habit of gluy\ng billiards at the rooms of Rudio Sears and running in debt for their sport. Levy guaranteed the payment of these bills to the firm and the boys claim that sufficient was taken out of their wages by Levy for this purpose. This, it is claimed, was gambled away, anyway it did not find its way to the coffers of the Manhattan, On the 25th of January Levy called at the Manhat- tan and gave a check on the savings bank for $5.00, This was to pay a bill of $3.00 and he receive $2.00 incash. The check was taken to the bank, but therc was no_ money on de- posit to Levy’'s credit. -He left' shortly after without settling the matter. He is now in St. Joseph, Mo. The neces- sary papers for his arrest upon the charge of obtaini money under false pretenses were made out yesterday and placed in the hands of Frank Yenawine, who returned to his home in St. Joseph, last evening. Levy will probably be arrested to-day, and held until a regui- sition can be obtained, when he will be brought back here for trial. Tae firm say they have been imposed upon many times and this move is made to secure justice and serve as a lesson to others. —_—— Where You Find Him. “Say, can_you tell me where Will 18?” inquired one citizen of another yes- terday. “Yes; I just saw him at Rudio & Sears’.” “Seems to me c\'ere'bmly goes there nowadays, don't they? ‘“Yes. Whoever you want tofind, you are almost sure to find them there. Rudio expects to be alderman of the First ward, you know, and at such a time everything goes.” s Travelers!

This resolution was ordered to its second veading under a suspension of the rules, and was then refe 1toa committee constituted of the city solic- itor, city engineer and council commit- tee on streets and alleys, The introduction of this resolution has caused no little speculation as to the purpose of the “Q." Interviews with railroad and_city officials and the own- ers of extensive properties in the lower portion of the city has developed ¢ tain facts which are of general inte| The resolution was introduced by T. Evans. He is connected with the Omaha & Council Bluffs Bridge company, as well as the owner of large land interests on that part of the city. He is one of a number of men whose property values depend upon the development and oceupancy of that vacaut tract. In order to secure this development people must be in- duced to come in and settle here. Here must be located lumber yards, coal yards and the other nec ry incidents to city life. This will cause the various railroads to seek extensions of their lines to this place. This is believed to be the purpose of the Q" in the passage of this resolution. It is only a question of time when other roads will desire the same thing at the hands of the council. That this road or any other will seck at this time ‘to secure entrance into Omuha by the way of the new bridge is hardly a possibility. The Chicago, Bur- lington & Quincy runs into Omaha now and the benefits derived from doubling its trackage there cannot be commen- surate to the expense involved in secur- ing this right of way. All who are interested in the matter of developing that part of the territory of the city are strong in the belief that a large population will be called in and a continuous tity be ultimately built from here to Omaha, of which Broadway will be the chief avenue of travel and trafic. These are the purposes and pros- pects which underlie the vresentation of this resolution to the city council, Rl S oy Domestic patterns at 105 Main street. b On the market for over twenty years.

Yesterday afternoon the BEE reporter called upon Manager Lane for some points relatiye to the telephone service of the city. These are matters of gen- eral interest and are here given. Mr. Lane has occupied his present position nearly three years. When he assumed it there were but 135 subscribers upon the list and there was anything but a general feeling of frindlinesstoward the “new-fangled speakin’thing.” Now the sentiment has greatly changed, and with the change has come additional subscribers, so that to-day the list num- bers 281; 175 miles of wire and 25 miles of poles are required in the operation of the system in the city, Five miles more are required between here and Omaha and forty-five miles between here and Avoca. During the past year the sys- tem has been worked at a serious disad- vantage on account of the impossibility of getuing instruments, switch-bhoards and cables. From January 1 to June 1, 1887, there was an increase of fifty subscribers, and from that time until December 1 there was no increase, al- though there were forty applications for instruments. Since December 1 these instruments have been supplied. Within a short time a complete list will be placed in the hands of every sub- scriber in the city. The calls and connections average between fifteen hundred and two thous- and per day, About one hundred and fifty connections are made with Omaha and twenty-five with points enst of here, To do this work five operators, beside the manager, are required during the day and one at night.” Business is tran- sacted with nearly every town in the state, as they can all be put in connec- tion with the main line that runs into this city. The reporter wasallowed the privilege of talking with the orenl.ur at Atlantic, which, by the use ol long distance transmitters, done with comparative ease. The distance be- tween the points is fifty-nine miles. and communication has been just as easily % had with Des Moines and Boone, 200 miles away. Verily, this is nu ag€ of great things. —_—— Sheafe loans money on real estate. The District Court. In the district court the case of Rich- ardson vs Scott continued to occupy the time. The cross-examination of Mrs. Richardson, the plaintiff, was not con- cluded until noon, and in the afternoon Mr. Plunkett, a farmer, was examined as to values of various property in- volved, and the attorneys spent so much time in offering objections and arguing over them that the case progressed slowly. It seems that the case will be on the board for two or three days longer. Yesterday was the day set for the trial of the Arch Coffman case but this, of course, is held back and will not be started until the present case is con- cluded. The grand jury is at work and the trial of these criminal cases will come np after the Coffman case has been dis- posed of. Several prisoners were arraigned yesterday and those who were too poor to employ counsel were assigned attor- neys by the court. Those arraigned w Ed Adams, for stealing Chris Durr’s team; Harry Wind, for forgery; W. T.

S The Lincoln Estate in the Bluffs. Twenty years ago this month there was o case in court here which bringsin the names of several persons noted throughout the land. The case was en- titled Norman B. Judd vs Thomas Lin- coln. Tt was brought in what was then the chancery court, with Judge Day pre- siding. It seems that Norman B. Judd gave to Abraham Lincoln a mortgage for £3,000, the property being a tract of land lying south of the Union Pacific tracks, near the river, and a number of lots in Riddle’s addition. This mort- gage was afterwards paid and this suit was brought to remove the cloud from the property. David Davis was the ad- ministrator of the Lincoln estate, and of the heirs Thomas Lincoln was the only minor. Attached tothe papers are afidavits signed by Robert Lincoln and others. and the decree of the court cleared up the cloud to the land. The abstractors in running up the chain of title are nowadays coming quite fre- quently upon names which are now so noted that their appearance cannot but excite comment. e One thousand head of one, two and three-year-old steers for sale.

Oyama, Feb. 13.—To' the Editor of the Bee: In your issue on the 13th of February, under the heading *‘Minor Mention,” Coun- cil Bluffs news, Isaw a few lines to the ef- fect that a party of “‘Omaha toughs” went to Council Bluffs to raise a row in the Danish church, corner Avenue A and Ninth street. T beg to ask the editor of the BEE to change the words “Omaha toughs” to something that will come nearer the truth. . The follow- ing is the *true statement of the af- fair: A Danish blacksmith, who at the present time is mak- ing livelihood a8 a minister, has for a long time from the pulpit done all in his wer to hurt the interests of ‘‘The Danish ioneer,” which {s published and edited in Omaha by the subscriber. Hewas overdoing the thing, though, and I thought I had better put a stop to it some way or other. To that effect I demanded of him, through a notice in “The Danish Ploneer,” to withdraw his accusations, in my presence, in the aforesaid church, that I would be there and wanted amends. The minister, though, was cow- rdly enough to en himself with the sanctity(?) of the place. 1 believe that I, as well as the other Omaha citizens who were at the meeting at the time mentioned behaved as gentlemen ought to.

The Terrible Vendettas on the Ken- tucky-Virginia Border. THE M'COY AND HATFIELS FeUD. A Deadly Strife That Has Rtesulted in Many Murders—The Principal Relatives—The Vendetta in War Time—Its Origin. San Francicco Chronicle: The deadly strife which for the past month has at- tracted the eyes of the country to the Kentucky-Virginia border, had its origin long before the war of the rebel- lion. The bugle-blast that called the stalwart Virginian and the Kentucky mountain-ranger from the fury of private feud to the organized onslaught of national strife was thought to have silenced the voice of personal vendetta. But even on the tented field, where the desire for blood might well have been satiated in the most savage hearts, those inveterate haters losi no opportunity of closing accounts with each other. and more than one brave, noble-hearted fel- low, who never turned his back to the foe, was found pierced through the lungs with a bullet that entered from behind. Tt was no unusual thing to find, after a bloody battle, a Markham search- ing among the dead for a Farley, and to hear, when the slain foe was found where the implements of death had reaped their fullest harvest, curses heaped on the head of sharpshooter or swordsman who had robbed him of his legitimate prey. It would be hard to trace the line of blood to where it poured from the first wound in those deadly feuds. A hun- dred years of this country’s life have marched along the trail of history since the first vow spoken for the trst blow struck that resulted in the bloody ven- dettas of Virginian-Kentucky border countie Among the brawny illiter- ates of the mountainous region of the Tug Fork of the Big Sandy hate is the religion and violence the creed. The rifle or ‘the revolver settles all debts, pays all scores, and the whistling bullet answers all charges of cowardice and lack of honor. The father educates the son in the story of hate, and teaches the boy to handle his weapons, so that he may ride with him on raids against his neighbor. The daughter is tuught by the mother that only disaster and shame can result from knowing a scion of the stock of McCoy or Hatfield, and 80 the feud is kept alive. Cf ation seems, in its progress across the continent, to have skirted the border land of Kentucky and Virginia. The same feelings that animated the fierce highlanders in their feuds, that d Scottish history with the awful massacre of Glen Coe, that slew feeble women and defenseless babes, are yet alive in the outlaws of the dark and bloody ground. Whether the murder- ous feuds will end when the ‘“last armed foe expires,” or be stamped out by the law is u question. In the mean- time the: no peace on the horder; no neutral Logan counties arve drenched with blood, and murder has ceased to amaze, ng the war several families who were bitterly opposed to each other. Inone of the companies were the Me- Coys and_Farleys. mentioned in the Chronicle’s dispatches from Charleston during the past month. " The major had been transferred from the Seventh New York as instructor of tactics in the Vir- ginia regiment. The men were nearl all refugees whose murderous deeds has driven them from their homes to the Cotton mountains. They were brawny men, with hearts that kinew no fear. They brought their own rifles to the war. They were men who wasted no powder, for their bullets always found the target. The loyalty of those braves may not be questioncd, They fought nobly for the union and died with their their faces toward the foe. But many made no secret of their feclings and said that they had joined the side that was nm)osud to their old enemies, the Hatffelds, who were confederates. To the aid of the union old Farley brought his five sons; Markham brought four stalwarts. Between these families a feud has,existed for years, The Far- had aided the Hatfields in their and the Markhams had suf- fured in the death of friends. Why they were found with the federals and in the same regiment it is hard to say. But what is stranger yet, before the war had wasted a year an apparent friendship sprang up between the whilom enemies. The men were orgin- ally from the banks of the Big Sandy river, and had made their living by log- ging to the Ohio. Few of the men could read or write when they entered the army, but before being mustered out all that were left could write their own names. John Markham showed great ability as a soldier, and before long he was made a sergeant. That had the effect of breaking up the friendship noted as having taken the place of bit- ter feud. One of the Farleys was pro- moted and again there was a semblance of peace. On one occasion Sergeant Markham obtained permission to purchase some cider from a farmer and he proposed to retail it among the men of his company. Farley went into partnership with him, and when the cider was brought to camp he was delegated to deal it out. Quite a sum was realized. Farley, when the firm settled up, demanded money for his extra labor. *You ask too much,” said the ser- geant. “So I do,” was the reply. ‘‘Justiceis too much to ask from a Markham.” . Both men drew their revolvers; each dropped back onestep and fired. The aflu?r had all the effect of a duel. The big sergeant stood serene; the Farley was dead. Markham turned and tried to make his escape; but the murder had taken place in the company street und a dozen soldiers presented their weapons at his breast. A court martial was called and Sergeant Mark was sentenced to be hanged. He had no word to say against the death sentenee: but spoke bitterly of its mode of execution, I shot Farley,” he said, ‘‘shoot me.” Every effort was made by his friends to get him pardoned; but the president declined to interfere. When he knew there was no hope,Markham prepared to meet death like a man. The execution was to take place on the Norway Falls he Kanawah river. When the day arrived he rode to the scaffold on his coffin, and frojn that ominous platform made a speech, *[ aie like a dog, but with the spirit of a man,” said he. *‘I die once, but | killed two Farleys. No one knowed whar the bullet came from that sent o1’ Farley aldyin’, lé was mine. I shot him, an’ the big Cottoh mountain has sheltered me since. Yoh Farleys an McCoy's had better stop yoh fight, I am a dead man an’ I ask yoh to shoot no moh, only fo’ the union. When the wah stops go back &n' make yoh peace with all the men spahed.” The Markham was hanged and the war rolled south and east.

The name of Farley was borne by but one man in the regiment when the star of the confeder- '::;: shone no more. The MiCey's nad er luzl, 1ne family was al- Leet é&ntire, and they lived to join again in personal” combat the atfields and their adherents. But the old stock that rode back from the war is nomore. The McCoys that are men- tioned in the dispatches were too young to take part in the battles then. But their fathers taught them well, and they ride on their raids like their fierce progenitors, sparing neither old nor young. The Hatfields and McCoys are rela- tives. Years agoadancing master went to Pike county and married a daughter of the latter house. After ashort time he left her, and cruel words were spoken by the McCoys of the deserted woman. The Hatfields resented the insult, and although the dancing master and his wife have long been dead, the feud they caused still lives and agitates, two great states. Kentucky is well named the *‘Dark and Bloody Ground.” e fncianns HE BESTED MORRISSEY. Jim Fisk's Office Boy's One Round That Led to His Success in Life. New York Letter: C. N. White, chief paymaster of the New Pork, Lake Erie & Western Railroad company for many years, has resigned. He is succeeded y Peter F. Donohue, who was Pay mas- ter White's assistant. When Fisk and Gould were in control of the Erie, Peter Donohue was Fisk’s office boy. He was o slight-built boy, but his eye was always on the right side of busi 5 One day Fisk gave orders to Peter, who sat at the outside door of Prince Erie’s office in the Grand opera house build- ing, that he would be engaged in some particular matters, and must be out to every applicant, no matter who it might be. At that time John Mor and Fisk were great friends, and Morrissey happened to want to see Fisk that day on some important business. Peter knew of the high regard Fisk had for John Morrissey, and the latter was in the habit, when he called at the Erie building, of walking into Fisk’s office. | unannounced and without ceremony. On this day he was passing, when the three and one-half foot office boy rose up and told the congressman that he could not pass. **How's that?” asked Morrissey. **Mr. Fisk is busy, and can't see any- * replied Peter Donohue. “He'll see me,” said Morrissey. ‘*No, he won't,” insisted Peter. The persistence of the boy rather nettled the ex-p -fighting statesman. and he said testily, taking a step townrd the door: **Do you know who I am?” *Yes,” said Peter coolly; ‘‘you're John Morri ) “Well, id Morr Fisk will see me.’ With that he swept the diminutive office boy aside and strode toward the door. His hand was on the knob but he did not turn it. Peter Donohue sprang on the broad back of the former ath- lete and climbed up it like o monkey. He threw issey, “T guess Mr. Te 4 his arm around Mor- rissey’s neck and gave it a squeeze that shut the big man’s wind off, and forced him to give all of his at- tention to freeing himself from the de- termined offioe boy's grasp. He finally succeeded, but when the novel struggle was over the office boy stood again be- tween the congr n and Fisk’s door. “Mr, Fisk gave me orders to let no- body in there,” exclaimed Peter, ‘‘and you can’t go in. That's all there is about it.” Morrissey's anger quickly gave way to admiration of the ho pluck and faithfulness, and, laughing heartily over his defeat, he went away. He told Fisk next day about his encounter with Peter, and how the latter had ‘‘downed him.” Nothing in ail of Fisk’s remark- able career every pleased him as much as the “nill,” as he called it, between Morrissey and Donohue. The boy was rapidly advanced by Fisk, and one of the direct results of his affair with Mor- rissey is his present place at the head of the most important branch of the Erie railway's fi al department.
