Shot In a S1eeping.Car.

A Union Pacific express train, between
Ogden and Omaha. on Saturday was
thrown into sudden confusion and alarm
by lot OF desperate men who were seek
ing victim. Ogallala is a famous cattle
point on the Union Pacific. and there are
usually a large number of cattle dealers
there. a lively dealer in card games went
through his cattle compatriots for about
$4,000. He refused to give up his hard
earned wages and succeeded, after much
strategy. in skipping the town. A train
passed Ogallala about two o'clock in the
morning, and on this train the hero of the
deal and chip made his escape The en-
mined to get their money back. They
Immediately telegraphed ahead OF the
train to friends in Alkali, the next station
When the train arrived at Alkali the cat
tie men of that place boarded the train
and were not long in finding the little jok-
er pretending to be fast asleep in a berth
in the middle of the Pullman The trouble
then commenced, and lively time was
had for a few minutes The gambler re-
fused to 90 with the cattle men, and they
insisted that he should. A fight ensued,
in the midst of which several shots were
hred. The passengers became panlc-strlck-
en- and rushed out of the car, through win
dows as well as doors, as the bullets whist
led through the air. Women screamed
and tainted children would not be comfort
ed, and. take it all in all, the scene was a
trightful one. The cattle men finally drag
ged out their victim, tied him to mule
and started away with him The passen-
gers returned to the car. One young lady
continued screaming in a terrible way.
She insisted that she was wounded in the
leg. Medical attendance was summoned
from the station, and an examination re-
vealed that a pin in the young lady's stock
ing was cruelty sticking into her. The
fate of the gambler was not ascertained.
The Pullman car was pretty freely perio-
rated by the bullets

Mammoth Tent.

GenHemen,-I have suffered ten years from the
worst forms OF ACUTE CArARRH. OR COLD IN THE
HEAD, that ever afflicted mortal man. Whenever |
took fresh cold it would settle in my head causing
the most violent sneezing, accompanied with ex-
cessive discharges from my eyes and nose. For
days and days my suffering would be intense and
finally settling in my oins and bowels, would render
my life miserable for month. Never, during all
my suffering was able to obtain even temporary
relief from any medicine ever tried. Three weeks
ago, while suffering from the worst attack ever
had, l procured bottle of SANFoRDs RADICAL
CURE FOR CATARRH. The relief from the first
dose was so gratifying that would willingly have
given one hundred dollars to obtain it. A few doses
completely cured me. My head has since been per
fectly free from mucous accumulations my breath
ing easy, and not a symptom of trouble about my
back and bowels has presented itself. Its effect in
my case has been truly remarkable.
Very respectfully, Il. M. YALE,

Is pleasant and perfect substitute in al! cases. for
CastOr OIL. Castora is the result of an old pny
sician's effort to produce, for his practice, an
effective cathartic, pleasant to the taste and
free from gripping.
DIR. Samuel Pitcher, Hyanns, Mass, succeeded in
combining, without the of alchohol, purgatiye
agent as pleasant take as honey, and
which possesses all the desirable properties of Gas
tor Oil.
1t is adapted 70 all ages, but is especially recon-
mended to mothers as reliable remedy for all
disorders of the stomach and bowels of children 1t
is certain, agreeable, absolutely harmless and cheap
1t should be used for wind collie, sour stomach
worms, costiveness, Group, &c. then children can
have sleep and mothers may rest
j. b. Rose & Co., of 46 Dey Street, New ork, are
the sole preparers of Castora, after DIR. Pitchers

one day this week, suppose that young
man loved you dearly-very dearl y-but
was afraid to ask you to marry him-may-

poor, or something-what would you think

The only safe and always reliable remedy for the
immediate relief and permanent cure of every symp
tom and stage of Catarrh. II is medicine pure as
distilled water and is obtained entirely BY distlla
ton of certain herbs and plants whereby the essen
tial medicinal principle is alone obtained, while
every particle of woody fibre is rejected. 1t is en-
tirely unlike every other before the public, and those
who have tried all other remedies are assured on
the honor of the general agents that this medicine
has and will accomplish all that is claimed for it.

that the action Of his Honor, Judge T. ]. Mackey,

posed this is the renewal of the plan pursued
in 1874, when there was state election. The
election this year comes off in August.
- The New York Times publishes an inter-
esting report on the condition of the labor
market in that city, both for skilled and un-
skilled labor, showing that the mechanical in
dustries have not yet recovered from the
depression caused by the financial panic of
1873. The number of hands employed seems
to be gradually decreasing, and the wages
show corresponding reduction. The trades
unions now number only about one-third Of
their total strength three years ago. This
is especially to be seen in the building trades,
the societies of 1873 numbering over ten
thousand, while at the present time the num-
Der on their rolls in good standing is not much
above three thousand. In 1873 the various
unions had 48,180 members, while at the
present time they contain less than $4,000, Of
which $3.50 are out of employment. A care
full estimate Of the workmen outside Of trade
organizations shows the probable number to
be $3.50, of which 2l,420 are idle. The
plumbers, gasftters, painters, and those en-
gagged in the building trades, appear to have
suffered most. Wages in all the building
trades have come down to two dollars day,
and those of laborers and longshoremen to
one dollar a day. Furniture-makers, tailors
and bakers suffer perhaps the least from non
employment; but the general downward ten"
dency is unmistakable.
