A CHAT WITH AN OLD SETTLER. The Saloon Skirmishes Scill Lively— A Sleeper in a Freight Car— Personals and Minor Matters, Drowning the Dogs. About two hundred and thirty dog licenses have thus far boeen issued, and the marshal has officiated at the exccution of nearly fifty unlicensed canines, still there are about twenty-five unclaimed animals in the dog pound, and fally two thousand howling and worthless curs running at large through the streets of tho city. The dog catching force 18 very small, but it is slowly ‘‘getting there,” and will send several hundred homely and homeless brutes to the land where tin cans and cruel smull boys are un- known long before dog days are over, About one hundred dogs have been placed in the pound, and notmore than a quarter of them have been redeemed by their owners. A few have been purchased by others, as all o1 the dogs are offered ut public auction be- fore being killed. 'he methiod of exccution is undoubtedly the most satisfactory that could be employed, A ring is fastened in the bottom of a hogshead filled with water through which a rope is passed, and the victim is dumped {n and hauled beneath ihe surface. By the time the next candidute 18 brought out the executioner is ready for him. everything passes along quietly, and 1f it was not for the crowd which assembles thero would be notning to show that anything un- usual was going on. There is no constant discharge of shot guns, and there {8 no crip- pling of the helpless animals, while the re. sult is swift ana sure. The suffering en- tailed upon the dogs is reduced to @ mini- mum. A few intelligent and well-bred dogs have been caught, but there are_enough par- ties who desire to buy & good dog, who are willing to pay the required sum of & and taka the animal away. It is expected that licenses will be taken out for about 1,000 dogs before the round up is completed. s b Don't fail to go to *“The Famous” to-night, opposite the Ogden House. it * City steam laundry, 34 g The biggest bargains ever offered in children’s white dresses this week at Friedman’s. e “The Famous” cash bargain house, 200 Broadway, opposite the Ogden house. Tele- phone 1 Main, tel. 141, e Reminiscenc:s of an O1d Settler. *'Thirty-five years ago to-morrow I took the first family across the Missouri river from this city that ever settled in Omaha,” remarked Mr. Benjamin Winchester as he stepped Into Tik Bex office yesterday morn- ing. “Anyone would scarcely believe it, to look at that wonderful city to day; but it 18 a fact that on the morning of July 25, 1854, there was not a dwelling or shanty of any kind where Omaha now stands, and now they claim a population of 140,000 people. It hardly seems possible, but. the old settlers here have witnessed some astonishing changes. “Icame to the Bluffs that same: spring, landing here on the 17th of May. It was avout that time that the old ferry company organized, and they wanted me to go across the river and start a_brick yard. The re- sult was that on the 25th of “July I took a family named Duell over there to board my help.” We put up & little shanty on the prai- rie somewhere southwest of Stoele & John- son's, and that was the first building erected there. At that time there was not u sign of human habitation nearer than where Flor- ence is now, and there were only a_couple of miserable dugouts up there, To the south and west there was not & trace of civiliza- ion, “All around where tho center of the city 18 now was a lieavy growth of krass, and 1 used to cut fodder for my horsés down around whiere tho postofiice is now located. Back among the hills was a growth of scrubby timber, and off to the south was a lot of pretty fair sized trees, There wasn’t a thing to indicate that ino_few years those hills would be covered with handsome and sub- stantial business blocks, from four to ten stories hign, in the center of one of the most rosperous cities in the country. “*Well, to go on with my part of it: We made all our preparations, and after a while 1 burned my first kiln of about seventy-five thousund brick there. 1t 80 happened that it was the last one, You see, the ferry co pany claimed a tract of land 8 mile_squai and there were several parties who hud over from the Bluffs and staked out .claims buck from the river, and the tract claimed by the ferry company cut into some of them. These partics did not hve on_their claims, but they proposed to hold them just the same, and they swore that it they couldn'v hold it there should be nothing done there. Tintended going right_along with my brick: making, but tucy begun to _break up every- thing and I had to quit. Duell only stayed s little while, and then started westto find & tract of land that suited him, and I got Bill Snowden to take his place, His was the second family in Omaha, and I guess he is there yet. The squatters were determined to run me out, and I had a pretty tough time of it. One day I took over two chain pumps and set them up, but that night they turned in and smashed them to _pieces. I had a canvas top made for my kiln by some woman on this side, and I took it over and stretclied it in place. 1 had an old fellow employed to watch the kiln, but he was 8o blind that he couldn’t see six fect from his nose. Well, the squatters made & visit one night to destroy the canvas top. They cut pos on one side, sud that startled the atchman, He started after them with an axe, but they kept running uround the kiln, cutting and slashing as they went, and in a little while tho canvas was cut up so that they could pick it up and carry it off, and they left the watchman still chasing around the kiln with his axe,too blind to fully under- stana what was going on. At tnat time Dr. Lowe, Dr. Ballard, Sam Payiiss and Jim Jackson'ware all here, mem- 18 of the ferry company, and they wanted me to try to keep along. Ur. Lowe offered me the whole block between Thirteenth and Fourteenth streets, opposite Milton Rogers' place, 1f I would stay, but I told him I could not put up with it, us'they were cutting me to pieces, and I was losing what little money 1 had. ““Dhe upshot of the whole matter was that they bought me out, and I parted with my property at quite sacrifice, 1 then went back to Pittsburgand got my family. The railroad only came as far ws Rock Island, and it took two or three weeks to cross tno state. When I got back, Omaha had exper- ienced her first boom, and there were six or eight little houses there. 1 remained on this side of the river and went into the brick bus- iness, and burned all the brick that went into the older buildings in this city, *\My experience on the other side of the river was auite varied and often exciting. One day we started out to mow & swath around the ferry company’s land with a scythe, and we killed sixteen rattiesnakes in going aroundthat mile tract. There were plenty of fights with squatlers, and hurdly » woek passed that we didn't have a dead man 10 carry back across the river. When they had the McHenry fight, down’ at Bellevue, bere wers two killed, and we brought them over to the ' Blufts for burlal Tudians were not scarce o those days, and aettiers were killed by them every little while. They would make s raid oo ally, and give the squatters a red hot fight. 1 tell you, those were exciting times, don't want to see them repoated. It do seein so very long 1o look back over those thirty-five years, but when I look around and see what has been accomplished in that time, I can scarcely comprenend it. 1t scems a8 if it must be & dream, but the evidences of progress ou every side are altogether too real for {magination. Yes, sir, all theso chunges are bounded by & period’ of thirty- five years.” e The Saloon Cases.

I have made no offers for the Alton.” Concerning the withdrewal of the Alton and the rumored withdrawal of the Missouri Pacific from the inter-state association, be smd he thought the association would con- tinue to exist in spite of the Alton. Asa dividend paying road it must maintain rates. The crops in the southwest, except cotton, were all out of danger, and there would bo business enough for all for the rest of the year., Gould had a consultation with Governor Francis, of Missouri, yesterday. It was said this was because Gould threatened, in the interest of the Missouri Pacific, to fight the recent reduction in rates ordered by the rail- road commissioners of that state.
