The Jenny Lind quar- tet gave the audience a delightful program. ‘The young ladles have thoroughly established themselves in popular favor and were encored repeatedly after each number. Many of the local musical critics are in raptures over the ma=zelous manner in which the voices of the young ladies blend. The magnificent drilling of the Omaha Guards was also an entertaining feature. Today will be a blg day all around. An excursion party of 500 people from Omaha will come in on forenoon trains, the guards will give their farewell drill and there will be a number of other spe- clal features. Huster's orchestra and Dal- bey’s band will be features both afternoon and evening.

Either the dog poisoner is abroad In the land or there is something in the atmos- phere of the dog days that is proving bad for the health of the canine population. During the last week a large number of dogs have gone around savagely chewing at fence posts, Weeds and other morsels that happened to be standing around, and have finally turned up their toes among the sunflowers. John Bar- hyte, police officer, was called on Tuesday by a man living at Ninth street and Avenue A to kil a dog that exhibited every symptom of hydrophobla. The same day Dr. Macrae noti- fied the city marshal's office that in the alley back of his house on Sixth street a dog was nabbing at everything that came his way. The dog was killed. Another on Avenue C met a like fate. A man named Stone, who lives on Benton street, lost one Friday, and an other named Hendricks, who lives a short distance away, did the same. Yesterday Mr Ruffcorn, who lives in the eastern part of the city, lost a fine bird dog.

It was ordinance under Oscar Bartlow, the Manawa marshal, attempted to arrest Jo- seph Terrell last lay, when Bartlow brutally beat the victim of hs authority. The records of the town council, it is set forth in the petition, show that motions were 1 nh! to read the ordinance a second and third time, but as three-fourths of the members were not present the rules conld not have been legally suspended and the ordinance read more than once at the meeting. Reed furth- ermore claims that no motion, accord'ng to the records, was made to pass the ordinance and so it cannot be legally enforced. A tem- porary injunction was granted restraining the fficials from trying to enforce the ordi- passc pay a 1 which town The ordinance in question nly that peddlers shall pay lic but that Licenses shall also be paid for the privilege } of running a shooting gallery, bowling alley | and other attractions at the lake.

BENNISON BROS., Council Bluffs. e yard 5 duchess, $1.1¢ former The attempt to steal $45,000 worth of steel rails from the Union Pacific railway at Grand Island and the subsequent arrest of George C. Shanks and A. W. Rawlston, the promul gators of the enterprise, both of which have been detalled in The Bee dispatches, awakened considerable interest in this city from the fact that Rawlston was formerly a member of the Council Bluffs city engineer's force. Since leaving here his experience with the vernier and transit seems to have eminently fitted him. for other classes of fine work. he theft of the railroad iron occurred on the night of July 26. It was just a few days be- fore that that Rawlston was in this city, a guest of Dr. E. I. Woodbury, whom he knew well while living here. To his host he con- fided the fact that since golng to Chicago he had gone largely into the business of mak- ing sky scrapers, and he had adopted the plan of putting long, heavy strips of iron into the foundations of the big buildings and burying the iron in cement, thus preventing the foundation from sinking-In spots. At the timo of his visit here he claimel to have a contract for putting up a large building in Chicago and one In Buffalo, N. Y. It was to get iron for the enterprise that he was on his way to Grand Island, for he sald he was going to make a deal for a large amount while in Grand Island. OVER WATER Town of Onkland Won the T Suit Commenced by a Plu The town of Oakland, in the eastern part of the county, seems to have been pretty thoroughly divided over the grave question of whether one part of the town shall have plenty of good water to drink or shall have to depend on other sources of molsture for quenching their thirst. Before Judge Smith vesterday were heard injunction proceedings commenced by a plumber named. Fisher to testrain the town from tapping the mains 50 as to connect the town plant with an ex- tension of the plant made and paid for by I. N. Gardner out of his private funds. The trigl of the case showed that a part of the citizens sided with Fisher and the rest went with the officials. Fisher, it Is claimed, backed in his fight by Spalty Bros. in general merchandise, who for long years have held a grudge against Gardner and others who are interested in having the mains ex tended and have taken this opportunity of satisfylng themselves, The citizens are said to be about evenly divided, and as a consequence the chance of the people living along the extension for having water brought to their doors seemed to be somewhat slim. Upon hearing the evidence, however, Judge Smith held that Fisher bad no monopoly on the plumbing business and dissolved the injunction. FIGHTING is , dealers Red Cedur Fence Pots.

It is so far that the uninitiated could be made very readily that it is past all harm from an scurce. Notwithstanding ite fine appearan hewever, it Is not yet out of danger of frost and will not be for at least weeks to come. A fine crop of oats has been reaped fn this section. Much of it {8 still in the shock, and a good deal of it has been stacked. It fs threshing out from thirty to fifty bushels to the acre and will average about forty. The wheat has all Geen harvested, and farmers are now busy plowing their land pre- Corn is luxurlant and advanced to belleve be two, ¥ to putting in another crop of winter Leaving Lincoln, the outlook is much less promising. Between Waverly and Feirmount a distance of sixty miles, is a stretch of coun- try which h usually been described as the garden spot of Nebraska. Crops have al- ways been abundant there, however poor they may have been in other parts of the state. Lest year and this year have been the only known exceptions to the rule. Somehow this has suffered severely this year. It has ra‘'ned copiously on all sides of it and all round it, but the clouds refused to give it a drop of ‘moisture until too late to save the ccrn crop. For a stretch of country forty miles long and forty miles wide the corn crop is very nearly a fallure. It will only run from a quarter to a half a crop, averaging as a whole about one-third an ordinary crop. Oats have not fared so badly. They are threshing out from thirty-five to forty bushels per acre. Heavy rains fell over this section at the end of last week. They came too late, however, to save the bulk of the corn. Very much of it is withered beyond redemption and a good deal of it has already been cut for fodder. Wheat in this section Is thresh- ing out fitteen bushels to the acre West of Fairmount the scene aga'n changes and an ocean of waving corn, strong and luxuriant, is fo be seen far as the eye can reach in’ every direction. The crop from Hastings to the western boundary of the state is practically made, and nothing but a killing frost can now blight it. It will average not less than sixty bushels to the acre, and very many large fields will yield as high as 100 bushels. Around McCook is where the disasters of last_year were most severely felt. The gains of this year have more than made up for the losses then sustained. The whole section of country looks like a veritable garden, and the people feel buoyant beyand expression Winter wheat {s threshing ouf about twenty bushels to the acre, and the best flelds are ylelding-thirty bushels. Spring wheat is run- ning from twelve to eightcen bushels to the acre. Oats average from fifty to sixty bushels, the bet fields threshing out 100 bushels, Alfalfa is a new crop here With which the 1eople are delighted. All kinds of live stock eat it with relish, and it is proving to be fattening fodder, The first year it yields one ton to the acre, but after the third year it yields three crops a year, which average seven and a half tons to the acre. It is worth in the market $5 per tor, but to feed cattle the results have shown it to bp worth $70 per acre. It is the coming crop, all along the flats of the Republican valley.
