His reminiscences of the rebellion brought cheer after cheer from the en- thused audience. Colonel Majors and Gen- eral Dilworth entertained their old com- rades for a few moments by recailing very interesting sketches of the campaign, and especially under their commanders, Grant and Sherman, to whom they paid the most glowing tributes. Their hearty wishes for the future welfare of the comrades brought tho veterans to their feet and three chee were given for the speakers of the evening. Tho officers of the militia and the First Rogiment band marched to the residence of Commander Adams, and, with the ofticors arawn up in line at' parade rest, the band rendered an exquisite sercnade, after which it was entertained in tio most hospita- ble manner by the commande: At 10:30 today Generat Hanback read tele- grams of regrel from many who could not be resent.

At 2:30 the assembly sounded and the old Yeterans, milivia and band proceeded to form inline for the sham battle. Fully 18,000 people watched the bogus rebel forces take their stand on the bluffs, build entrench- ments and throw out tho skirmish line. Meanwhile, the union forces appeared in the valley a half-mile away. The opening gun was fired from the entrenchments. ‘The union battery immediately stationed its guos and then commenced & heavy artillery duel. The advancing skirmish line of federals soon ran out the rebs’ skirmishers aud a fierce contest en- sued, in the midstof which Colonel J. F. Kendall with his cavalry company rushed up, driving the skirmishers to the fort. The charge of the old veterans and Colonel Ken- dall’s attempt to flank the Johnnies was the first timo repulsed, but the second attempt tho stars and stripes was planted firmly on the fort built by the confederates. The battle was under the charge of Gen- eral J. M. Thayer and General C. J. Dil- worth, so that it could not be otherwise than a success. The dress parade by tho national guards at 6 o'clock wus witnessed by alarge crowd. On the evening train «cume Hon. John J. Ingalls.

Low Rates Swell the Travel to Chloago on All Western Ronas, Cuicao, Aug. 4.—All the westorn roads are enjoying the sensation of witnessing a substantial increase in the amount of their passenger trafic. Ivery road in the Western Passenger association is doing moro business than at any time since the opening of the fair, and at least two of the roads which were strenuously opposed to vlacing the rates below 80 per cent of double locals are now denouncing themselves for not coming down at an earlier date. The agents of the various western lines are almost unanimous in reporting that the prosp for u continued increase of Dbusiness are most favorable. This showing is a decided surprise to some of the lines which have been croaking about the financial stringency, which they claimed had peen keeping people back from the fair. They are now carrying more passengers and making more money from thelr passenger trafiic thun at any time since January 1. The Union Pacific, Rio Grande Western and Denver Rio Grande-Colorado Midland were accorded permission some time_sinco to make second-class rates from Pacific coast points to meet the reductions made by the Great Northern and Northern Pacific.

TRENTON, Mo., Aug. 4.—Joseph A. Howells was hanged here at 10 o'clock today for the murder 0f Mrs. Nettioe Hall and four chil- dren near Brookfield, Mo., January last. This was the first hanging ever known in this county and, of course, the feeling in the matter was intense. The crime for which Howell was executed was one of the most atrocious in the annals of history. In January, 1889, about 11:50 o'clock at night, ‘the house of Mrs. Hall, near Brookfleld, wus discovered to be on fire. Through the burning windows could be seen the bodies of Mrs. Hall and one of her chil- dren lying on a bed, having been killed, ap- parently with an axe. By tracks in the snow the murderer was tracked to Brook- field and arrested iua hotel. The case went through the courts with one reversal and one hung jury, and a bold effort to alter the records before the supreme court. Crowds of people wers In tho city.

ABOUT ONE-TENTH OF CASH VALUE How it 1s Apportioned Among the Several Countles—Lincoln Police Make & Startilog Discovery of a Racy Character, LixcoLy, Aug. 4.—[Special to Taz Bre.|— Chief Clerk Everett Babcock this foronoon completed the work on the annual state as- sessment roll. The total state levy amounts t0 63 mills, which upon the assessed valua- tion of all property in the state, $104,783,- 12478, will raise & revenue of $1,203,005.50. The assesced valuation of the state is con- sidered ridiculously low. At the auditor's offico iv is estimated that tne average assessment is_about one-tenth of . the actual cash value of the property. Multiplying the total valuation.as reqf rned by the assessors by ten, the total value of all’ kinds of prop- oity in Nebraska would thus amount to the sum of §1,047,331,247.30. The revenue accru- ing to tho state is anportioned among the soveral counties as follows, the first column showing the assessed valuation and the Jast the amount each county will be required to turn into the state treasury : County. 1,674, 1,167,046 22 7,002 Latp 07 17,945 96 2EH9D 31 14754 11 5,004 59 B1d41 74 610,817 92 10067 59 11680 B Holt.....
