PRoF. COOKIES Star of Mystery Com
pany will give two of their unique and
wonderful entertainments at Leytze's Hall,
this and tomorrow evenings. The press
of Dubuque, where they have been per-
forming this week, speak in the most I'M
qualified terms OF praise of both the mu-
seal and mystical features of the troupe.
Prof. Cookies exposure Of the leading
wonders of Spiritualism are described as
most thorough and satisfactory. He does
all he processes TO do, and despite the NEST
rigid scrutiny and watchfulness on the
part OF those set by his audiences to watch
his performances, conceals the manner of
doing it until he is ready to explain. The
entertainment is pronounced by our breth-
rem of the press as rst-class, and the per-
formers ladies and gentlemen. Reserved
seats secured at the Post-office Store.

AN attempt was made, by unknown
parties, on Wednesday night of this week,
to enter the house of Mr.. Howard, who
lives on the west side of the river 1t
seems that Mr. Howard was absent from
home, buying cattle, and his wife was the
sole occupant of the house. At about 10
o'clock in the evening the lady heard some
one trying to enter the door, which was
locked She enquired who was there, land
received no response. The noise then
stopped in that quarter and commenced
on one of the windows. The person or
persons kept up this proceeding for about
an hour, and at last succeeded in opening
the window. The lady then screa med,
and, fortunately, was heard by two gentle
men-Mr. Hopkins and Mr.. Lyons, who
were returning home. They Immediately
ran over to the house, but the burglars
had gone upon hearing the lady scream.
Leaving the lady well prepared for the
house breakers in case they should return,
the gentlemen returned home No further
attempt was made to enter the house dur
ing the night.

A TERRIBLE RAILROAD ACCT
DENT.
Two Citizens of Independence Badly
Injured,

Our community was shocked on Wcdnes-
day morning by the intelligence, received
by private dispatch, that an accident had
occurred the evening before on the Central
of Iowa r r., and that Moore and Carl
PAIL, of Moore's String Band, OF this
city, were among the dangerously wound
ed. The wives of the wounded men took
the morning train on Wednesday for the
scene of the accident. and in the meantime
all sorts of rumors were rife. The report
was that Mr.. PAIL was already dead, and
that Mr.. Moore would probably not sur
vive. This was corrected, however, by a
passenger from the west, who reported
that Messrs. Moore and PAIL were very
seriously injured but not dead. The first
definite news concerning the disaster was
by the Dubuque papers, received yesterday
accident occurred 3 miles north of Hamp-
ton. The SAT passenger train on the
above road, bound south, struck broken
rail close to D bridge and precipitated the
entire train, except the engine, over the
bridge and a 80 foot embankment. The
baggage-car and first coach went over on
to their sides in the ditch, without partc-
ular injury to anyone; but the rear car
went over the bridge and down the en-
bankment 80 to 30 feet high, and In the
decent was torn to pieces. All the pas
sengers were more or less hurt; those
more seriously hurt, besides Messrs.
Moore and PAIL, were Mrs. Bush of Ma
son City, and Fred Johnson, the train-boy.
Mr.. Pahl's injuries are about the head =
He was picked up for dead, with the
blood issuing from ears and mouth and
nose, and lay for long time insensible.
Mr. Moore was also hurt about the head,
according to one account his scalp being
nearly torn off. A telegram from Mrs.
PAIL, at Hampton, was received by the
family last evening, saying that her hus-
band and Mr.. Moore were comfortable, |
and would probably recover

OUR contemporary across the way insists

OUR contemporary across the way insists
that it is justified in designating the stock
holders of the Driving Park Association
as dead beats, because they have neglected
to pay its bill of $3.50 AS we said be-
fore, we do mot propose to justify or ex-
cuse the Association for culpable neglect
to pay its bills, but we think the epithet
used by our ncighbor rather out of charac-
ter as applied to the individuals who COM
prize the majority of the stockholders of
the Association. But not viewing QueS-
tons of propriety through his spectacles,
we may be wrong.

points she enlarged with cogent reasoning
and convincing argument. Mrs. Foster
is always graceful and pleasing speaker,

y CERTAIN man in this city, having en-
gagged to build monster clothes basket
for the Insane Hospital, procured his ma
terials and Immediately set about manu-
featuring it, which he finished one day
last week. When he was ready to deliver
it, he found to his establishment that the
basket was so large that it could not be
removed from the house, either by Win
dow or door. He had given no thought
as to how it was to be removed, but had
been only intent upon having the basket
finished in certain time. He tried all
the doors and windows in the house, but
1t was ono 60" and he finally comprom-
ised the matter by cutting a hole in the
side of the house by which he removed
the basket, but at an expense which will
cover the price of the basket. If you
want to see a mad man, just say basket"
to that individual.

Tribute to Mayor Holdriise.

Some two or three weeks since, the
ladies composing the Woman's Christian
Temperance Union, on their own motion
and without suggestion from anybody
outside of their organization, conceived
the idea of offering Mayor Iloldridgc some
token of their appreciation of his faith
fulness as public officer, and the firm
ness which he has displayed in enforcing
the ordinances, especially those relating
to saloons. They accordingly elected a
committee of three ladies to put this idea
INTO tangible shape and expression, which
they have done in the following commun-
ication. Mayor IIoldridge should be proud
of this spontaneous testimonial to his
official integrity, coming from a source SO
worthy of respect and considerations:
INDEPENDENCE, Feb. 18th, 1876.
ED. BULLETIN:-The ladies of the w.
G. r. T. unanimously beg leave to express,
through the columns of the city papers,
their appreciation of the fidelity manifested
by our Mayor in the enforcement of the
city ordinances, particularly those relating
to saloons
We feel that the manner in which he
has discharged the duties Of his office
Justly calls for the commendation of all to
whom the prosperity of our city, and the
well being of its homes are dear. And
we believe that the re election of Mr..
Holdridgc is the tttest method of com,
mending his administration, and at the
same time subscribing the interests of law
and order.

STILL If the BULLETIN will persist in
running itself into the ground We
can't help it .-Conserydtiue.
The above has familiar sound. We
think we have heard it, and from the same
source, quite number of times before.
In fact, we have come to expect it just
about so often every year, and, as it seems
to relieve the pent up feelings of our
neighbor, in the same way as the injured
urchin got even with his tormentor, by eX-
claiming: Your sister hain't got no &C
Gordon, and mine has, we make no seri-
Gus protest. We have only this to say,
that the best wish the most ardent friend
of the ConSerU atiUe could breath for it
would be, that it may be in existence to
record the circumstance when the BULLE-
TIN runs into the ground" We fear,
however, that no such goou fortune is in
store for it.
