A sIcKLY KICK

The father of the young man who was ar
rested by Sheriff Mcdonald on Monday, ar
rived in the city yesterday from Yankton,
and tried to persuade the boy to return with
him but the youth did not like the home
of his parents, did not like Yankton as q
town, or its people as a class, and refused to
60 back. His father gave him some money
when he left and proceeded eastward
last evening, where he has a situation await
ing him.-Siour City Journal.
The above refers to young Loberg, who
deserted his home several days ago. and was
arrested at Sioux City at the instance Of his
father. When the facts are stated that the
young man resided in Turner county, 25
miles from Yankton; that when he left he
took the cars at Gayville, IL miles east Of
Yankton, and that be has never been in
Yankton, it becomes apparent that the
above like all the efforts of the Journal to
disparage Yankton and its people lacks the
constituent of truth. The Journal
conceal its jealousy by silence, or
have some little regard for the truth in its
impotent filings at Dakota in general and
Yankton in particular.

HORSE THIEVES CAPTURED.

About two weeks ago sixteen horses and
ponies, the property Of j. w. Bosler 4 Co,
the cattle contractors. were stoleE at Yank-
ton agency. John Woods, one Of Bosler's
herders, Cas-. Conger and an Indian pur-
sued the thieves, and after = hard and per.
sistent ride, overlook the thieves near Jack
son, Minnesota. They arrested the thieves,
two in number, who gave their names Is
Morse and Smith, and lodged them in the
Jail at jackson. They recovered fifteen Of
the stolen animals, one of them having been
sold, and no trace Of it has yet been OBJ
tanned. Mr.. Woods arrived in Yankton
last night, and this morning procured a
warrant from United States Commissioner
Congleton, under the authority Of which the
thieves will be brought to Dakota for trial
In the United States district court. Deputy
Marshal Edmsnds, accompanied BY M.
Woods, will leave for Jackson tomorrow
morning to serve the warrant and bring the

something. This is all wrong. The com.
panies may not have shown the liberality
and fairnes, expected Of them, but Sioux
City has ever a more vital interest than the
railroads in keeping the river within it's pre-
sent bounds, and in an hour like this there
should be spirit Of conciliation shown rath-
er than one Of antagonism. We cannot but
believe that If a committee of our leading
citizens would ask the cooperation Of the
railroad companies in measures looking to
the protection of the levee, they would find
the latter ready and willing to enter into
any scheme which might appear practicable
and judicious. If the levee is protected
there must be cooperation between all in
terests concerned in saving it, and At this
time, in the face of such great danger Is
threatens US, it is worse than folly to stand
idly by and quarrel about who should do the
work. The railroad folks can afford to move
their depot grounds to another part of the
city, though we can hardly afford to have
them do 50, especially if BY their abandon
ment of the river front We be left alone and
unaided in the taking care of it. In all
probability the railroad companies feel very
little concern in the matter. The ground
costs them nothing and they have M expen.
sive buildings upon it, and before doing
any thing will probably very carefully count
the cost and II. the expense promises to be
greater than their property endangered ID
worth, may refuse to do anything, and e.
pecially if they we're expected to bear thu
whole cost. But there ID no doubt that Il
they were approached BY the right men. in
the proper spirit, they would do what they
might consider their full proportion. Cor
poraaions are selfish, and work neither fol
glory nor for the love..of hunanisy, end "

A Model Wife.

The Burlington HdaOkeye tells oil
a model wife in its neighborhood:
We once knew a man who was al
ways praising his wife. On the
corner, down the street, at the
Postoffice, at the race-track, in the
skating rinh, at the theatre, in the
sal-that is, at the choir meeting
he was always telling what a happy
man he was, just because he had
such splendid wife, and he talked
every man be met into perfect
frenzy of envy about her. Well,
one winter morning, when it was
not yet too light to make one ap.
pear over ostatentatious, we sneak
ed into that neighbours backyard
to steal fence-bOard for kindling,
aud had to wait before we could
obtain 1t until that mans wife
came out and sawed couple of
armsful of wood, shoveled out
three suOw-paths, fed and groomed
horse and cleaned a cow-shed,
and then went into the house, and
we heard her call to her husband
that the sitting-rOum was warm
enough for him to dress in if he
wanted to get up now, aud we were
so amazed that we forgot what we
were waiting for and went back
and kindled the fire with a n-cob
and pint Of kerosene.
