Last Saturday evening party of intellectual
youDg gentlemen were cultiyating the amenities
of life In the "wine-room' attached to that
moral and refining show known as the Race
Street Varieties Cincinnati. The "wine-room"
is an apartment of q semi-private nature, where
susceptible youth who have been attracted by
the fascinating females who dance the cau-can
and perform other chaste exercises for the moral
elevation of the populace who frequent the
Varieties, are permitted TO gaze more closely
upon these divinitles. ia u. +.
One gentleman of the party, named Frank,
Roach, became boisterous in his conduct. Mr..
Isaac Steele, an ancient colored gentleman em-
plOyed in the establishment, was deputized to
eject Mr.. Roach, which he did in q handsome
manner but just as the twain reached the door
Roach turned and plunged a knife into the pit
of Isaac's stomach, inflicting a terrible wound.
Roach has not yet been arrested. l.l,

Seventy lodges of Arapahoes, under "Yelow

Robe" were permitted TO leave their reservation
at Camp Supply, to 60 on buffalo hunt, and
going north towards the Arkansas river, pitched
their camp on Bluff creek thirty-f miles south

on the night of the 4th inst q predatory tribe
of Indians from the north made a raid on the
stock and ran Off two hundred and forty head of
horses and mules, stripping the hunting party
entirely of their stock The thieves were fol-
lowed by the Arapahoes and Cheyennes to the
Arkansas river, but they did not cross the river
in pursuit. Troops have been sent in pursuit of
the robbers The Cheyennes and Pawnees have
long been enemies, and about thirty years ago

at Pawnee Fork near Fort Larned, in which
the Pawnees were defeated and the Cheyennes
obtained mastery of the country. The feud has
been kept up ever since.
Movement TO Set Aside the Mcfarland d.
The Mcfarland Richardson scandal has been
slightly terminated in this community by the
appearance here of an attorney for McFarland,
whose mission is to ascertain If the Morgan
| county divorce may not be set aside for infor-
mality, general impropriety, or something OF
| that sort. The legal gentleman AYERS that Nc
Farland, during the entire period of his wife's
residence in this city, watched closely for some
intimation of her Intention to apply for di-
| yorce; but as the sagacious attorneys in her
| behalf brought the suit in another county, her
husband was completely bafaed, and knew no
| the divorce had been decreed-knew nothing of
\ it, indeed, until very short time before the
shooting of Richardson, which is alleged to have
been done while Mcfarland was laboring under
yfpco opttx indn hU
! disappointment. The gentleman has not re-
| turned to New York, but has already learned
that under the laws of our State the divorce can
not be set aside. Indianapolis Mirror 20
