WILLIAM BLAc#..
University Magazine.


Mr. Black is a very rapid writer.
There are fabulous stories told Of the
amount Of leader writing which lie
conld accomplish in his days of jour
nalistic' work. In writing novels he
seems to sit down with all his matter
in his head and only the actual work
Of the penmanship to do, so that he
can write straight on. He will take
perhaps week of what ignorant
#mortals might consider idlenesz, and
then in d day or two write All that has
accumulated in his mind Thus, al
though be seems TO keep his brain per-
|petually employed either in obserpa-
ton. or construction, his hours Of sctn-
|al physical work are rot really very
many. He seldom works two days
running, even in the thick Of a novel,
as the strain of this continuous work
is too great, although occasionally
this rule is broken by some few days
of consecutive writing. Mr. Black
seems, altogether. to have a very flu
ent and easily commanded power Of
production, but even he cannot always
write. Sometimes he will shut hifn-
self up, or leave home for few days,
in order to get through a spell Of
work Mr. Blacks earlier novels
were writtens when he accomplished
an amount Of journalistic work which
must have made it no light labor 10
produce bright romances at the same
time. But Mr.. Black is not one of
those persons who enjoy talking of
themselves or their own work, and
we are left to judge for ourselves
whether his work has always been a
pleasure t. him when he was most
full of it. MI. Black is very good
pool player-a fact which will bring
a smile to many Of us, as recalling
that delightful sketch, "The Legend of
a B Hard Ciub'-and is, indeed, fond
of games aud the various active
amusements with which our humanity
busles itself; most people would sup
pose bin to like the light and bright
side Of life Yet it is probable that,
if Mr. Black were personally asked to
describe his own disposition. he would
say that his habitual mood IS one of
profound melancholy. 1t is more than
probable other authors. also gifted
with the power both Of enjoyment aud
Of giving enjoyment, would render a
similar account of themselves. 1t is
a question whether any one who has
cultivated his po vers of observation
will net inevitably be more often sad
than gay.

A LITTLE fellow ran to his mother
the other day aud asked. 'Ma. can
have some bread and iam?" His
mother, wishing 10 break him Of the
habit, replied: "Nhen | was your
age couldn't get anything To eat be

THE RIVER

The river remains stationary.
The Niobrara still remains at the levee,
not having yet secured q load.
The Peninah is loading at Sioux City,
and will probably be here on Sunday.
The steamer Dacotah passed Nebraska
City on the 18th. going down. Captain
Beusen wal much better.
The Far West left Bismarck with 200
tons of freight for the different posts be-
tween there aud this port.
The Rosebud arrived at Keogh July 26th
in five days and eighteen hours from Bis
%marck-lhe quickest trip ever made BY
any boat.
The steamer Western. Arch Bryan mas
ter, arrived this morning from Cheyenne
agency, with a good passenger list. She
brought a load of wood from Fort Hale to
Fort Randall.
Bismarck, D. T., Aug. 1.-THE crews on
three steamers struck today for higher
wages. Two steamers are nearly ready to
start. The roustabouts gained their point,
and will 60 out in the morning at $50 per
month. Fifty cents an hour was paid by
one steamer to-day. The steamer General
Sherman reached Buford yesterday. in fifty
five hours, the fastest time ever made up
the Missouri. She laid there with grain and
supplies for Fort Peck, General Miles sup
ply depot.
The work of removing the lower ware
houses has been completed, and it was not
done too oon to save them from a tumble
into the river. The washing away OF. the
bank continues, and at noon to-day only
about twenty feet remained between the
river and side track OF the Dakota Southern.
Unless the cutting away of the banks
should cease, of which there Is no apparent
probability. the track will have to be re-
moved, and in view of such an emergency
preparations have been made so that work
can be commenced at a moments notice.
Since the removal of the warehouses no
other buildings are in danger.
The Sioux City Journal gives this as its
version Of the Niobrara's operations : "The
Niobrara was engaged by the Coulson line
to take . load for them, they being behind
on account of the accident to the steamer
Black Hills. After taking that load it will
run from Sioux City as heretofore. If the
Press believes what it says as to the Mo.
brara's leaving this city to make Yankton
its starting point hereafter, it il ever more
feeble minded and credulons than We sup
posed" We trust that the Journal does
not for q moment suppose that the Niobra-
"a would tie up at the Yankton levee .
week waiting for = trip if there was any
business for her at Sioux City. 1t is . fact
that she has abandoned Sioux City, though
she may 60 back, when a load accumulates
there for her.

AFTER YEARS OF SUFFERING.


Mrs. Elizabeth Mock, Of Salem, N. c.,
writes under date Of March 18th. 1878, that
she suffered for many years With dyspepsia,
complicated with neuralgia. The pain was
80 severe that she could not rest day OF
night. Several physicians attended her
without benefit, or eve relief. She was
considered incurable. BY reading the
Peoples Common Sense Medical Adviser,
she learned that DR.. Pierce, OF Buffalo, N.
T., successfully prescribed his Golden
Medical Discovery IN such cases. She
commenced its use. The pain gradually
subsidized and dieestion became more natuf-
al. She persevered, and 10 q few weeks
was perfectly and permanently restored.
Her case 10 q wonder to all who know her.
In the face of such testimony, IL It not fool.

Jim Somer's wood yard near Bruie City.
It. appears that several men, supposed tobe
Jim's relatives. took possession of the
yard. during the owners. absence, and o.
sumed the ownership of the wood. They
sold Z quantity to the steamer, and just as
they boarded the boat to receive their
pay Somers put In a appearance, and Q
grand musical jubilee was at once inau-
gurated. Jim was unarmed while the
Jumpers were supplied with ~revolvers and
guns. but nothing daunted by this circum-
stance he faced the crowd and 10 the. choic-
est frontier language invited them to lay
aside their guns and he would whip them
collectively. This they. refused to do, and
bringing their fire arms to bear upon the
burly form of the unarmed man endeavored
to intimidate him, but the game didn't
work. Jim maintained his position, bluff
ed the armed crowd from the boat, walked
up TO the Office, drew the money for the
wood, and then marched In triumph TO his
wood yard, from which the armed Jumpers
were retreating in confusion. This viii
probably be the last effort to Jump Jim's
