Some of the local scribes on the pers are voicing complaints against ce the county uflh:lul't, whom they accuse of withholding ‘mews” from them and giving the same_to the rustlers on the other papers. These ofticials should be more considerate and try to help out these enterprising young men in their laudable endeavors to get an occasional item, for it must be rather dis- couraging to them to see their papers go 1o press day after day without a single item of good, legitimate news. Friday evening Mrs. Lohan, a woman liv- lnx m Garner township, picked nine baskets 'f. -apes and marked them for customers in hl this city, intending to deliver them in the morning. About 3 o'clock ing two boys drove up, loaded them into & wagon and left. Constable Clatterbuck was notified and followed the thieves to Omaha, where they had sold the grapes. The fruit was recovered and an information lodged against the thieves, who are supposed to e Seymour and Lee De Mors, two brothers llvlng in this_county. They have skipped out, but will be arrested as soon as found. Constable Clatterbuck recovered the stolen property in very short order. Mr. Buerdorf, who resides at No. 222 Second street, heard a noise in his house about 2 o'clock yesterday morning, and thought it was his sister. He asked what was the matter and heard some one run half way down the stairs and fall the rest of the way. He rushed out into the hallway just in time to sco the form of a man disappear- ing through & window. An alarm was given but the fellow escaped. Nothing was missed from the house, and it is probable that the burglar was surprised before he had time to investigate the premises thoroughly. Friday’s fire near the transfer was caused by carclessness with gasoline. Mrs. Wilson, the tenant of the property, desired to to ex- terminate a lot of hen lice in the barn, and procured five gallons of gasoline for that pur- pose. She distributed the inflamable fluid over the interior walls, and said good-bye to the vermin. She then proceeded to rake up some rubbish around the building and set it afire. That was all that was necessary, in in a few seconds the hen lice had depu this life. Prompt exertion on the part of neighbors was all that saved the surrounding buildimng: The case of Cont A. Murphy for assaulting Reporter Westcott, of the Herald, was called in Squire Schurz' court yesterday afternoon. Attorney Lindt prosecuted the case for the Herald company. After hear- ing the testimony of witnesses, the court fined the defendant $10 and costs. It was rather an unusual sight to sce the prosecut ing attorney in the case urging the court to remi: the fine, after working hard to have it imposed, and also advising the defendant to refuse to pay the fine, urging as a reason that the Herald scribe was to blame for ex- asperating Murphy, The court has not yet decided whether or not to remit the fine, "As the case stands, it is about the same as would have resulted from an immediate trial in police court for disturbing the peace. A couple of days ago Dr. Seybert and Charley Stebbins went out to Big Lake on a hunting expedition. As the pair were cross- ing the lake a large mudhen rose with a tre- mendous noise. The doctor thought 1t was a wild goose and swung around his gun in a hurry, but he was somewhat excited and the whole charge tore through the bottom of the beat. The water poured in rapidly and the nearest land was made. The only thing left todowas to walk two aud a half miles through the mush to their starting point. The story would probably never have gotten out but “Doc” had on his $14 pants and he had to call on his friends to help him mourn. As the present gas charter expires on the 2d of February, 1859, it is time that the city council was mlnnu some steps in the way of advertising for a new plant. The present system of robbery has been going on long enough, and should not be tolerated & day after the expiration of the charter. Other companies are already in the field, and de- wire to furnish gas for the city at reasonable rates, Their propositions should be care- fully considered, and means devised for re- lieving the people of the present burdensome price. The question of granting the new charter cannot receive too much attention, and the council and public generally are ad- vised to keep very wide awake in the matter, —— esterday morn- “Real Estate Speculators think a good deal of Tipton,” said one business man to another yesterday. “They ought to,” was the prompt reply. “I know one man alone who shipped eastern money out to that fellow and let him do as he pleased with it, and that eastern man can to-day take §20,000 rofits from that fellow’s investments or him,” —— For bargains in real estate see £.

The assemblies of Knights of Labor along the entire Burling- ton system are federating with the brother- hoods of engineers, firemen and brakemen and will assist them in prosecuting the strike. The boycott will be the means employed to effect the desired end, and it is proposed to establish a perfect and complete boycott of the Burlington company throughout the en- tire country. The Knights say that they wili bankrupt the road unless it yields, and claim to be perfectly satisfied with the out- look. The engincers welcome this powerful addition to their fighting forces, and are more confident than ever of ultimate success.

Paul Pioneer Press: I have just returned from a brief visit to my old home among the mountains and granite hillsides of New Hampshire. The av- erage farm in that country is say 100 aeres, of which, perhaps, fifteen to twenty acres may be called, in a sense, arable. On the old homestead which T visited T found growing say one-half of outs, three-quartersof an acre or corn, one’quarter to one-half acre of wheat, & few potatoes, and a small gar- den. Not to exceed twenty acres had been mown, and the hay nicely stowed y in _the barn. The buildings were xcellent rey , and both inside and outside were as meat as could be desired. In the wood shed I noticed stored away a year's supply of The man who now owns the place e did not inherit it, nor, if I remember rightly. any other farm. The farm i f umple of the average in that tow) ship, twelve miles from the ncarest ra way station, and no manufacturing v lage in the vicinity.
