Dan Carrigg, who is one of the owners of the gambling outfit pulled by the police on Saturday afternoon, announces his intention of prosecuting the oficers who made the raid, and Chief of Police Carey who ordered it. He will base his action upon the fact that the chairs, tables and other property found in the upper rooms of 303 Broadway and con- fiscated have been stoved there for the past three years, and that there can be no evidence adduced to show that there was auy intention of opening a game there. He does not deny the oftice) ight to enter the building when they were armed with a search warrant, and at the present time will not dispute their right to seize the goods, but he will base his acticn chiefly upon the fact that they entered private roows in the Mint and the satoon on Lower Broadway known s the Omana, by breaking open the doors without the formality of procuring a search warrent. At the Mint nothing was found, butin & rear room of the Omaha a putrol wagon load of tables and gambling devices were found. For endavoring to prevent the oficers breaking into the vate room at the Mint Carrigg was placed under arrest and taken to the station, where he gave boods in the sum of #0 for his ap- pearance this morning.

Bresee's case is now in the supreme court of the state, and the lady is how await- ing a decision of the court upon a motion to dismiss it altogether. The decision was to have been rendered last week, but was not forthcoming. About three weeks ago an order was obtained from Judge Chambers re- leasing her from the custody of the sheriff of Harrison county, and upon the advice of her attorney and friends she left the Valley at once and came to this city, where her aitor- ney could look after Tier interests peasonally, Judge Boulton feels v uch encouraged in the belief that the supreme court will sus- tain his motion for uismissul, When this is done it is intimated that there will be some further developments that will make the case of still greater interest to the public, Just what they will be cau only be surmised, but from sundry remarks that have been made the impression hus beon created that suits for neavy dawages will be iustituted against the people in Missouri Valiey and elsewhere who have made so many efforts to denrive M r Bresee of her liberty by shutting herup in on Insane asylum, Whoh soon by Tne Bes reporter yesterday she appeared to be in a very pleasant fraine of mind, but admitted feeling a little anxiety over the result of the pending motion 1n the supreme court. e The McKmley Bill Has not affected the prices at the Peoples' installment house.

Tue announcement in Tue Brr yesterday morning of the arrest of William Lewis upon the complaint of John Doven upon the charge of highway robbery has caused some of the acquaintances of young Lewis to come for- ward with contradictions of the charge, They strongly support the explanation made by Lewis that Doren gave nim the money, and that theve was no robbery connected with the transaction. Doren holds tenaciously to bis story and will prosecute Lewis for the felonious assault, Doren is an old crippled soldier who s drawing a mouthly pension from the govern- ment. Hewas to lave drawn the three month’s pension due bim on Saturday after- noou, and went to the bank for that purpose, but after he reached the bank he concluded not to take it all out.

There are some things against prohibition that none of you have said much about, and which makes prohibition worse than it ap- pears to be, The first is that no good, hone: ing citizen will assumethe liquor secretly and against so that the trafic will the hands of the lowest clement, and, to pay them for the risk they run of getting caught, they will charge three prices for their merchandise, besides adulterating it with poison enough to kill anyone who drinks their vile decoctions, so that those who drink will be rohbed of both health and money, and to many the fact that it is for- bidden by law will constitute a temptation to indulgence, Nearly all foreigners are brought up to the of beer asa purt of their daily food. It comes hard to them when they get here to find drinking proh ibited by law, and all men are not drunkrds because they were brought up to useit. [ lived three on a farm in England and never saw ortasted coffee or tea during that time, and I never failed to find my pintof home brewed aie veside my plate fordinner. Beer is made from the last run- ning of the malt after the ale is run off, and the beerwe could have as often as we liked long as it lasted. During that time [ never awa man drunk on the premises, but here we have prohibition that does not prohibit and the law is enforced only in places where public sentiment is strongly ugainst drink- ing, and even then all the topers muke out to get it 1 some way and the tax- vayers have to foot the "bills—not out of the revenuo from the trafiic, or the manufacturing of it, for itis all shipped inw Towa from adjoining states, If all the money that we pay out in lowa to prose- cute liquor cases were spent, in teaching men 10 be men who would scorn the idea of mak- ing beasts of themselves or worse, there woula be less drunkenness and a better state of society. We think you will do right in Nebraska to let prohibition alone and pass laws that will control the liquor business and_let only men nandle it who will sell it according to law, and make them responsivle for any trouble they may make by committing ai offeuse against the law by heavy fine, impnisdnment orloss of license.

I fir i\u ith 3 brought down the leader, while Ch emptied his Winchester after the r treating pair without success, were anxious to prepave th deer for transportation to the camyp as quickly as possible, in order that we mightnot be caught by the darkness, and both threw down our rifle We were about half done preparing the ame, when I heard a rustling and Crashing behind me, and turning my d, I saw some animal in mid air nging right at me. “The natural instint of self-preserva- tion led me throw myself on the ground as quickly as possible, and as I did so L felt the wind of the brute’s passing bhody literally raise my hair, It had mised me, but it struck Charley, who was just by my side broadside on, rolled himover for several paces, and dazed him so that he didn't kuow where he was or what had struck him. It was a panther, and as hungry and wicked as a panther can be. Ho had evidently been tracking these deer on his own account, and when he found himself forestalled had worked himself up into a state of frenzy and attacked us, trail “Well, there lay Charley on his fice, with the brute standing over him, and L could see the blood stuining my compan- ion’s brown hunting shirt a darker hue where tne panther’s paw rvested, I leaped to my feet, seized Charley’s rifle by the barrel, and, swinging the stock around, aimed a heavy blow at the ani- mal’s head. He saw it coming, und met the attack witha quick turn and asnarl, The barrel broke from the stoek with the force of the blow, which struck upon the animal’s shoulder, knoeking him side wise upon his back, “Quicker than a flash he rose and came straight at me, open-mouthed; but fortunately he gripped my loose buc skin hunting shirt in his teeth, inste: of my shoulder, as ho intended. At sume time one of his hind paws struck my thigh, and only the stout buckskin prevented him from rending the flesh from the hip to the knee. “The foree of his spring knocked me down on my right side. There he pinned I could not getatmy knife and Charley was only just 1 his wits, and for a few minutes orsec- onds—time goes slowly ina fix like that —did not know what was going on. ST glipped my left arm around the head of the panther and tried to thrust my finger and thumb into his eyes. I suceeeded but partially, and as the beast seized my arm inhismouth it gave me a chance to roll over anw try to draw my knife, But the brute pulledat me so that in sheer desperation I grasped his windpipe and closed with him as one might witha man. It must have been an exciting scene. Charloy said that at first | was on top, then the panther, and all the time he was dancing around, looking foran opening to shoot, and in his excitement trying to fit his Winches- ter cartridge into my ritle, “I yelled with agony, and my antagz- onist howled and struggled. My clothes lasted about a minute, then n and flosh began to suffer. Charley threw the rifle down, drew his sheath knife, and threw himself upon the beast, stab- bing him wh e lie ot chunce, and once, poor fellow, putting the knife point through my second finger. All this infuriated the panther a thousind- fold, and, turning short round from m: he threw Chavley on his back and com- menced to worry him, This gave me a chanee to draw my knife, but I could only use itin my.left hand. My right arm was swinging about like @ pendu- lum and rapidly tuming me siclkwith pir L J “Lattacked the panther just the same, and as 1 gave him a thrust that sent the knife through his shoulder and then slipped off the bone,cutting its way out, we all three volled down a pretiy deeyp hole ov slide, where a great tree had been uprooted years before. As we veached the bottom the yelling of the brute increased. As his g i for an instant Char rolled out of his embrace, and, steadying himself, sprang back again and plunged his knifeinto the panther’s heart. Then Charley lit- erally fell on top of us, Ling oft | with'his head and shoulders under the animal’s hindquarters, struck men se- | blow on the temple with one of his know, Conse was hearing butit was dark when I recovered | My first recollection Tom's voice calling my ed back to him, bul my | s sounded harsh and sty in my Tom heard it; and speedily camy down the hole with a lantern to seo what was the mutter, As soon as my USHOSS. | voi flrst | saw Charloy, el with blood, lying insensible under the panther, The ani- mal was stone dead, his last living of- forts having been toseize Charley's foot with his teeth, Fortunately he got the heel sswise umong his teeth, which werestuck fastin the solid leather of the heel. “We pulled the na after g usne ass from off Char- ing him back to con- found that most of his wounds i, except the firstdecp ke of the claw on the shoulder, an¢ contusionon the side of the head v ceived when he rolled down the slid On examining the panthor we found nsharp root projecting from the bank and he was actually sk was lying pretty fortur us, 18 we were both diss d where he both, I was nearly tornto pi had my right arm ‘broken in two | It tured out that Tom had he shots, and_us we did not make our ap mude emptying his Winchestor, thut some Imu:l tina Rk pened to ws, He luckily remembered noticing the hole some days before, and dead deerand broken vifle he would not have found us until morn- wed upa litter for me between the two horses as soon was strong enough to travel, and we g back all right, though it took along time to cover the dist that panther’s skin does not show much sigmnof punishment, just tuen it over and count the knife thrusts.

A COWRBOY STOPS AMAD HORSE, Catifornia Tom Risks Death to Save a ty of Schoolgiris, “California Tom," oneof the cowboys the Wild ~ West combination, did brave thing in the hovse ring the othe afternoon at Toronto. It was while the ponies, horses i driving cav lions of all clusses were and the ving was a movi malsand men, th oom in chargo of Dr. Camphell’s gno black driving mare undertook to make some in the sct of the bridle, ment something frightened th and, making aplunge forw away in umoment, The runaway hovse took the track and at a desperato j came teaing down toward the stand, Atthattime Californin Tom, taki in the situation at a glance, said: **Lll stop that horse!™ Running over to the ¢k, he joined with a policeman in try- ing t0 head off the horse, but the fright- ened animal would not be headed, She went flving pust. But Tom sprang like a as itwhitled by, had climed in from of g judged, r mnss of at the cart and in a moment he the rear, Then he grasped the lines, but they only threw the bridle off the mare’s neck and showed that it was uselessto pull on them, There was no time to be lost, for the runa was dashing toward the spot where 500 schoolgirls and many ladies and gentlemen were standing. Therefore, without waiting a moment, Tom clambered over the dashboard and sprang onthe mare's buek. Then, just as she came opposite the grand stand he swung one foat out and, resting with the other on the shaft, he dealt the beast a terrific blow with his heel justunder her left foreleg. Tom ned afterward that this was a favol of winding and throwing a vicious e out west, and this time it worked instantancously, The mave fell heavily on her side, and Tom was on her neck in a twinkling. She struggled desperately, but the ex- perienced cowboy knew she could not rise whiie he kept his knee on her neck, Others crowded around and the capture was complet Such cheering a5 the vast crowd then gave vent to wasnever before heard on the grounds, A gentle- man stepped forward and handed Tom a bill. Mr. William Christie at the same time started around with s hat, and in fifteen minut Tom was called upon the platform and presented with u handful of bills and silver, making in all some $60.
