I Tint Ashland Time? of the 2'Jth closes a lengthy eulogy of n proml nentoldnetllcr, whodicdHiiddcnly hut week nfnpjxiplcxy, in follows: "This Is a Had warning to man, I hat man i but morta', that ho is Hallo to be called henco to answer for his many misdeeds at any moment." 7T,T, i ins roiuiiii, mm dciiicoho imuii-i gcr, who alwayM.kocpsonc eye open to the main chance, is said to have reached Wushiugiion ahead of the whole army of on"icohuntcrn who arc desirous to'TTlilhokB. Land Receiv ership at Grand Island, made vacant by the death of Jessie Turner. Tin: California press, alino.it with out exception, lays the blame of the Modoc Indian war to the ill treat ment of these Jndiansby their agents, who are said to have taken advantage of every opportunity to swindle these Indians, liio San Francisco Alta of tho 2 "lli Kays in this connection: A largo part of the trouble with tho Indians results from the incompe tency and dishonesty of Indian agents, and we liavo rcaon to suspect tliut the present Modoc war would not have occurred if tho agents of tlic Clovcrnmcnt in .Southern Oregon and Northern Catifornia had attend ed to their business properly. .Soino years ago theso same red-men gave serious trouble, and Gen. Crook, then in command there, went after them in earnest. In a short time they begged for peace, and he granted it, on conditions that they should bo al lowed to roam over the country and support themselves, and the chiefs should bo held rusponsihlc for the surrender of any of their subjects who should murder white men, or steal the property of tho whites. Tlioy kept the peaco loyally, bccaiibo they had learned that they could not make anything- by fighting agaiiut Crook. After a time, an Indian ngent attempted to drive them into a reser vation, where they could go to Sun day School, and" could bo used to justify tho payment of various sal aries and tho handling of good, on which profit could bo mado in vari ous ways. A war was tliicatcned. but Crook interfered, and protected 'the red men against the agent. Now Crook has been absent for some time, and according to reports, these name Indians had been driven upon a res ervation, where they were starved and robbed. Wo do not admit that because the Indians have been robbed by the ngcnU, Unit tho white He Ulers in the community nhould bo left unprotect ed and tho crimes committed by red men go unpunished. That .Is the pottcj-of the Indian Coiiiiiiissioneru, mm they are weicoino to all tho in famy which it will fasten uiion their memories. Tho Commissioners in their annual report for 1872, have no regret to express for tho outrages committed by tho Apache-", no re commendation of any eifuctivo meas ures to prevent the commission ot others in tho future, and no sugges tion to ofTer that the Indian agents, unpointed by tho Commissioners and placed under their control, aro in many cases thieves of tho darkest dye, atid wonts than tho savage whom they would starve or drive to crimo. 1'I.ATTK IUtllKJt: OIU'OMITK VAt IjKV STATIO.V. Our attention lias been called to a schcino for bridging tho 1'latto river at a point opposite Valley Station, about ten miles southeast of this city tho expenso to bo borno by Doug las and Saunders counties. We know not whether tho project is se riously advocated by residents of either county or not, but cannot be lieve there is any intention of under taking such a work. The air-lino dis tance from tho center of Saundors county to Omaha, tho real point sought to be reached by Hiich a bridge, is thirty-six miles, while from tho samo point to Fremont is only four teen miles. Tho Omaha market is no better (ami often not ho good) for seller or buyer than tho Fremont market, and it is not rcasonablo that any considerable nunibor of people would wish to travel twenty-two miles unnecessarily. A bridge nt tho proposed point would not accomtuodnto any conoid arable part of Saunders county it is too far north for tho pouthcast pcc tinn, and too far south for tho pcoplo of the northern (section. The dis tance is co great to Omaha that fow perrons would over dare to go there, even thoso liviu: nearest tho bridge would crow it and then conio to Fre mont on tho north side of the Platte. Whoro nothing would bo gained to any considerable number of peo ple, there certainly would bo no icason to expend public monoy. If our friends in Saunders wish to do a really good thing for themselves, they will voto bonds sufficient to buy half of tho Fremont bridge and thus make it free, then go to work in a business manner mid make a good road, and all parts of their county will be benefitted. FrcinontTribune. How exceedingly kind in tho "Tri buno" to tako such a disinterested view of a matter which concerns tho people of Saundors and Douglas counties Wo had all along suppot.ed that tho pcoplo of Saunders county were nwaro of tho superiority of tho Fremont market, both for buying and Belling, over that of Omaha. That is n matter of coure, but tho Tribune is, perhaps, not nwaro that Saundors county is peopled by tho cjuuerest lot of humans on God's footstool. Whether it is pure "cus-cdncss" or an ungovernable- desiro for excreciso they do want to como to Omaha even if alio is located thirty-six miles from the very centra of their county, and h a more village as compired with tho great city of Fremont. The idea of purchasing half of that cum bersom and unapproachable bridge near Fremout octually ueu'r entered Ulclr 1,orKBC(1 1,rnin' Hnl11 tllc D(j,l county orgrtii boldly ventured the suggestion. I" rom what wc can learn, however, It If wbNpcrod slyly that SaundcM county U not anxious to go Into imrtnership with Fremont in tbo ownership of that wooden clc-! pliant. What surprise in the most I iHlhoQulxotimtupldltyofourDoug-j lni county farmer', and particularly those located near Valley Station, who per-iist in trading nt Omaha, i when they could save anil make mo ney by patronizing Fremont, which N to much nearer to them than thh village. TUT. Nt'llODT. I'UJII) ANI NI'ATK KIASCKi. Ticasurvr Koonig and Mr. Owen, of tho .State National IJ.tnk, nrc get-, ting up a scheme for improving the finances of the .State by buying up her $125,000 in warrants, and issuing in ncll thereof oouikiii warrants, bearing ten per cent, interest, using lor this purpoc the permanent scnooi fund, now invested In United State bonds. ItNvould bo bad policy, wo think, to put the school fund into any other form than it now is. If it is desira ble to bring State warrants up to par (as it no doubt is), the State had bet ter Ixind itself, nnd not tamper with the school fund. llcatricc Kxprem. Wo would icpcctfully refer the Kxprc-w to our State Constitution, which piohiblts the Stale from in curring more than $50,000 of in debtedness at any time without sub mitting the question of "bonding" to tho people nt a general election. A proposition for funding the outstand ing indebtedness of tho State, and raising a sullicient amount to cover tlio citimntcd expenses for tho next two years, could have readily been submitted to llio pcoplo nt the last State election, but we presume Gov. James and certain other political powers were disinclined to chance an extra session of the present Legisla ture. The proposition to invest the per manent school funds in State war rants bearing ten per cent, interest, was brought forward and urged forci bly nt tho last session of tho legisla ture, but the scheme failed, owing to tho diversity of opinion as to the proper manner of carrying it into effect. Now wo presume tho linan ciai prouiem u not merely to raise a certain portion of the outstanding warrants to par, but to redeem them all, and create n capacity for their permanent redemp tion hereafter. If thi.i could bo accomplished by issuing the 850,- 000 of State bonds, authorized by tho Constitution, and the investment of tho permanent school fund in Stato warrants, tho problem would readily bo solved. Wo iuclino to tho opinion, howtver, that it is an impossibility, simply bcc.iuso thero have already a sufficient amount of warrants been is sued to cover that amount, with the prospect of at least $100,000 more war rants beingndded this winter, to cover tho floating indebtedness not yet au dited. If therefore the amount real ized from tho conversion of tho per manent school funds into Stato war rants, and tho issuing of?50,000in bonds is insufficient to redeem "all" the warrants now outstanding, or to bo issued this winter, this policy would necessarily benefit only a cer tain preferred class of warrant-hold crs, while others would perhaps bo no better olf than they aro to-day While wo regard the investment of the school fund in Stato warrants, or so-called Stato certificates of indebt edness, as perfectly safe and more re munerativo than tho present invest ment, there is no good reason why tho Stnto should pay inoro for theso certificates or warrants than their value in the financial market. Wo incline to the opinion that tho StatoTreasurcrshould treat tho school fund, precisely like any fund trans mitted to him by outsido parties, for tbo purchnso of warrants or bonds, lie should fust sell tho U. S. and Union Pacific bonds, jiow in tho Treasury, to tho highest bidder. Having converted theso bonds into legal tenders, lie should ndvcrtUo for proposals for Stato warrants, just as Secretary Doutwcll docs for U. 8. bonds, purchasing those offered by the lowest bidders. Tims all warrant holders would bo placed on a perfect ly equal basis, mid tho Stato could sccttro tho benefit of tiio discount. Any other proposition looking to the conversion of tho bchool fund into warrants, or certificates of indebted ness nt par, must demonstrate boyond a doubt that not only nil tho Stato warrants now outstanding will bo re deemed for cash by tho Stato Treas urer, but that all warrants to be is sued during" tho fiscal year will also bo cashed without fail. Othcrwlso there would necessarily bo discrimin ation nnd partiality in favor of cor-. tain creditors, nnd ngainst others who nro equally entitled to thoir money. Ay car ago a fashionable tailor in I'oston mado an elegant lobo do chambro for a lady, who presented it to her affianced husband. It was a gorgeous affair of silk velvet and satin, with a smoking cap and slip pers to match. They were married but after bix months of 'onnuhlnl life they scpornlcd, and now tho. gar ment camouack to tho tailor, who will put it up in n radio for $250. A Fort Waino lover thought he saw his sweetness talkiug over tiio gate to a rival, tho otuor night. Lover gathered a boulder and hurled it with truo aim nt a rivals head. IU val's head proved to be a nicely turned globo on tho gute-jost. Iiould or caromed on the head of sweetness. Father gnvo lover a doo of shot. Fido bit him. Tho splinters weio picked out of of sweetness' head, but she declares she will nevor marry a man who is jealous of a gate-post. noxnv roil Tin: r.Ainr.s. What nu objtinate creature's a mule. How peculiar, that woman, the pride of creation, is Mtilicrl An Indiana woman laments that her husband hndnot better sen.e than to take the but shoot to hang him self. It is stated, on what is considered good authority, that Susan II. An thony hns not been in swimming for five straight years. A San Franclaco mnii, who re fused to shako hands with Mrs. Fair, lias lecelved notice that his insur ance policy is not worth ii cent. 'When I put my loot down, I'll have you to understand," said Mrs. Nojoker, "that there's something there." Un investigation, it was found to be a No. 1 1 shoe. Olive Loanu Svkes announces that she will quit public life nftcr this winter if well patronized. This will bo the only inducement for people to go and hear her. "No hoon-skirts are to be seen in the streets of l'aris," says u corres pondent, from which wo infer the questionable habit of raising dresses on tho street crossings lias ceased. Says tho Ciovcrport Transcript: "A progressive counter-hopper up at Hock Haven, in Mcado county, whose baud itched to follow the roamings of his wanton eye, toolisiiiy traded a calico dress for a pair of cotton pal pitatora." Mile, llcrdon, a French dress maker, tired of oppression, plunged into tho Seine, with tho words "Wo liavo no liberties." When sho was promptly pulled out she finished the idea: "They don't even allow us to diown ourselves." "I wonder what causes the eyes of young men of the present day to be so weak said a young town lady to n lountry aunt, who was reading the Pilgrim's Progress in the smallest typo without barneys. "My dear," was the tart response, "tho eyes of young men are, in tlicc days, placed in the weakest part." A Cincinnati youth who pcrs slated in visiting a young lady in Louisville, well knowing tho local prejudico between the two villages, was seen a few days sinco in a doc tor's office inquiring what a piece of L-oiiri-jniisiL-r i-junt meiies uy iwcivu would cost nnti how much "skins grafting1' costs by the square yard. A girl in Indianapolis, who has $200,000, advertises for scaled propos als for marriage. The postmaster has decided to cnariro her double nrice for her box, as it keeps one clerk half ins nine lining u up wnu piuK-tinicu envelopes, nnd tho whole oliico is scented with musk nnd bcrgninot, liko a perfumer's shop. A new feature of social enter tainments this winter will ho "pound parties." They dciivo this nnmo i rom mo circumstance tunc each per son invited is requested to furnish a pound ot pastry, confectionery, nuts, Iruits. or other edibles for the tnble, and thus nn elegant supper is provi ded. The parties arc given nt private residences. One d:iy last week a young lady in tho country wrote for a piece of music "with sentimental words that almost silently How from tho depth of concealed sorrow, revealing n sad heart's tenderest emotion in a tone that would almost melt nn iceburg nnd crumble ndamnnt to dust," nnd in a postscript informed tnein that her "patigh" would bo up next week nnd pay lor it.

Confucius says: Woman depeuds upon tho mail therefore, she must not presume to meddle with govern mental nffiiirs. Thero nro threo classes of duties for her to. follow At homo (unmarried), she mut submit to her father. Having been married, she must submit to her husband. If her husband bo dead, she must submit to the son. She may not dare to follow her own will. Command her not to go outside of tno icmaie apartments. iter ousincss consists in preparing food nnd such liko domestic duties nothing more. Therefore, at the ago of putting up tho hair (at tho marriageable ago) sho must keep within tho femnlo apartments, and may not go n- bun drcd Ii to attend a funeral. (Sho may noi go iar irom noinc, even on tho most important occasions.) In business matters sho must not assumo responsibilities. In going abroad she imiut not go nlono. Having taken counsel (lenrncd what is best) lot iter diligently per form. Having proof sullicient of what sho is about to say, then sho may speak. During the daytimo she may not walk in the public hall, and going aoout tno House at night sho must carry a light. Uy means of these rules she may fulfill tho lound ot woman's virtu ous actions. Tho Hook of Wisdom nnd Profit says: Thero nro four classes of fe mnlo virtuous actions which nro to her praise. They are, 1st, womanly virtuoj 2d, womanly countenance; !ld, womanly speech -lth, womanly employments. As "to woman's virtuous actions, they do not require nn uncommon display of talent and brilliancy. As to her countenance, it is not neces sary that she bo exceedingly hand some. As to her speech, it is not necessary that sho have a mouth for discussion, nnd a sharp, rapid deliv ery. As to her works, she need not oxcel other pcoplo in cleverness mid skill. She must bo chaste, innocent, sober nnd economical. Sho must mind her own business, and bo neat nnd order ly. In her personal conduct sho must preserve modesty. In hor work sho must liavo rulo and order. Theso constitute femnlo virtue. Sho must carefully chooso her words, and then speak. She must use no improper or untimely expres sion. When it is the proper time, then sho may speak. Lot thero bo no occasion for othors to bo offendid with -what sho says. These nro tho rules for woman's conversation. Let hor wash and dust her clothes, mullet her keep bright and fresh. Let her bathe nt proper times, and preserve her person from all inutilities. Tlico are what aro required with' regard to appearance. IjCt her diligently spin nnd weave, and let her not Iks inordinately fond of savory food and wine. Let her in pencct order prepare tnvory dishes to sat before her guests. Tills constitutes woman's work. These four virtues ronstituto woman's gre.it and essential duties; they uio very easy. Lot her use the utmost diligence, to continue on in this straight road) doing according to thee directions. This is the sum of woman's vir tuous conduct. TniKtingsald: the rules of pro priety for woman require that she speak with a gentle olce, to walk slow when she stays her stein, to stand erect; in appcrancc, U. lie sedate nnd respectful. Her cais must not hear too much (must not uo eaves dropping); her eyes must not nee too much i must not "be prying into other K?opte's nlfiiirs). Abroad she must not wear the countenance of a flatterer. She must not steal glances over tho wall. Sho must not peer through tho lattice. Sho must rise early and retire into. Sho must not fear labor or suffering. Of broils or quarrels she lmut be especially cau tious. She must live in constant dread of bringing any possible dis grace upon the family.

In addition to his own manufacture, ho keeps a woll-sclccted assortment of ladies and1 gentlemen's goods, which he almost gives away. There is no telling to what elevated position Webber's business may yet lead him, and when ho gets there, wo hopo that, like Grant, ho'll remember his friends.

Tho Boroavod Huuband Wants to aoll out his Household Stuff Cheap. That jKirtioii of South Omaha ly ing in the vicinity of tho brewing estnlismcnt of Hrewer Ucinis, was thrown into a little excitement yester day by nn elopement which took place Saturday afternoon. In a neat littlo' cottage, located near the new street that runs to tho bot toms, south of tho brewery, lives Peter P.asmussen, it Dane. About two months ago, a young man named Slmonson nrrived in this city from Denmark, nnd becoming acquainted with Itasmusyui, ho began boarding at his house. Ho worked at nothing, but seemed to have plenty of money, ns ho always paid his board bills promptly. Now Hasiuusicn, who is a middle-aged man, had a wife, young.bcing but twenty-six years of age, comely and fair to look upon. Kasmusscn is a laboring man, nnd during his absence through the day and nt other times, Simonson courted his wife, nnd ns tho sequel shows, succcded in gaining complete pos session of her licklo affections. "When the cat,s nwny tho miee'll play," was truo in this cac. Last week Mrs. Ilagmu&cu in formed her husband that sho was tired of Omaha, nnd wanted to go somewhere else. Sho desired lo sec the great city of Chicago. In fact, sho wanted to leave her husband, nlthough sho did not tell him so in n direct way. At last, he concluded lo let hergo, and rather than have his two litlo daughters left upon his hands, he gave his wife $200 to tako them with her, hoping that when she had finished her travels bho would return n contented woman. Saturday afternoon Mrs. Ilasmus Bon took the train for Chicago, accompanied by her two daughters, nnd, as it was afterwards discovered, by Simonson nlso. Yesterday morning Kasmusscn learned the fact of the elopement, nnd during tho day felt considerably downheartcd at tho manner in which ho had been deceived and swindled. This is tho second trick of tho kind that his unfaithful wifo has played upon him. About two years ago she ran nway with a young man named Lewis, and went to Plattsmouth. Her brother, a month nftcrwards, succeeded in bringing her back to her husband, who forgave hor, nnd took her to his arms ngain, upon her promising to be a faithful wife in the future. KasinusHeii has n bright littlo boy left, upon whom he places the bright est hopes. Ho no longer has any faith in womnnkind, nnd wants to sell out his household stuff nt a sac rifice, proposing hereafter to live tho life of a bachelor, having become thoroughly convinced, through his own experience, that "ThU record will forever aland, 'Woman, thy vowa are traced in sind.' "Tie Up thnt Gnrtrr." Yesterday was a most pleasant day, and thoso who owned or could obtain horses either non-epizootic or which had recovered from tho disease, took a drivo in tho nfternoon. A certain young gentloman, who is at present very assiduous in his attentions to his lady-love, obtained a horso that had just got well from the epidemic, and took his girl out riding. Sho had her legs (wo mean tho legs of the horse, as it was a mare) bound up in red flannel. Whilo driving alimrr Sixteenth Btrcot the strings hecamo partially untied, and let tho flannel flap in tho air. It was noticed by n precocious youth, who yelled out to tho driver, "Say, you fellow, stop your horse and fasten tin its sartor. Its stocking is coming down." Tho young lady blushed crimson, whilo tho young man was rather embar rassed j but nevertheless ho retained sufficient presenco of mind to nlight from tho buggy, nnd pull up that "stocking," and tio that "gartor."

Eight Hundred Dollars and a Gold Watch and Chain. A Well Known Young Man Falls in with tho "Girls" and is Drugged. For the past year there has lived in this city a young gentleman, who has done nothing but pay his iward nnd washing bills promptly, nnd in joying himself in the abundant mean time. Ho never seemed to bo out of money, and always spent it freely. On general principles ho is consid ered a bully boy, and a "halo fellow, well mot." Ho is a most gentlemanly young man, and never indulges in a stronger oath than "by Jove," and never drinks anything except tho very best that the city affords. Well, to make a long story short, this young gentleman of leisure wont on a general hurrah a few days ago, and took n trip nbout tho city, making tho grand rounds. Tho consequence was that during his travels ho fell in with the fancy deini-iuonde, and hav ing eight hundred dollars in his pocket, he proceed ed to spread himself, setting up the champagne liberally. Next morning the young man woko up, and upon regaining his senses found himself in a strange place, and his eight hundred dollars and his wntch and chain van ished like the dew beneath a summer morning's sun. Ho told several of his friends of the affair, nnd gave it as his opinion that ho must have been drugged nnd robbed. He did not know what to do about it, but filially concluded not to at tempt to recover his money nnd watch, as by so doing ho would ex pose himself to tho public, which ho did not care to do. This is the same course pursued by the majority of young men who nro thus beaten, and who rather grin and bear their loss than to suffer tho shame of exposure, and therefore wc do not hear of half the "ways that are dark and the tricks that are rain." Tho young man, however, is happy ngain, as ho has received another in stallment from home, cither from his fatherorfromhisown resources. Here after ho proposes, when undertaking a similar trip, to take only enough money along to pay his actual ex penses. l'l'rsonnl. J. C.

At half past ono o'clock, yester day afternoon, Mr. Charles McGulro died of chronic dysentery, nt his resi dence on Howard street, between Twelfth and Thirteenth. Tho deceased was Iwrn in Canada, in May, 1838, nnd was therefore yot a young man. He was the second oldest ion of a family of fight tliil dii'iij all or whom are living, lie was married in Adell, Iowa, fourteen years ago, and he leaves a wife and four children to mount his early death. For five months the deceased was a most patient sufferer from this slow nnd insidious disease; and during his long and painful illness ho cherished, till within a few days, the fond hope of nn early and thorough restoration to health. When it became appar cut to him, however, that his time upon earth was of short duration, ho prepared himself to meet his fate with the utmost calmness and resig nation of spirit. Ho retained his consciousness almost to tho very last moment, nnd during his last hours he spent his timo in nrranging his spir itual and worldly affairs, nnd giving minute directions to his friends ns to the manner and plncoof his burial. The decca-ed leaves behind him, besides his .family, n, large circle of warm personal friends, who all deep ly regret his. early death. Ho may bo considered as ono of Omaha's old est citizens, having conic lo this city nine- years ago, during which timo he was nn active, industrious, nnd en terprising citizen, and it was through these qualities that ho accumulated considerable property.
