The imperial carriage was attacked
about 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon on
the Ekatrenofsky Canal. opposite the
imperial stables while the Emperor
was returning with the Grand Duke
Michael from the Michael Palace i'm a
closed carriage escorted by eight Co.'S
sacks. The first bomb fell near the
carriage destroying the back part. The
Gar and his brother alighted uninjur-
ed. The assassin, on being seized by
colonel Of police, drew revolver, but
was prevented firing it. The second
bomb was then thrown by another per-
son and fell close to the Cars feet, its
explosion shattering both legs. The
Car fell, crying for help. Col. Dorjib-
ky, though himself much injured, raieed
the Emperor, who was conveyed to the
Winter Palace in Col. Dorjibky's sleigh,
where, an hour and half later, he ex-
pired. The men who threw the bombs
were arrested. Grand Duke Nicholas

The driving storms of month ago in
Nebraska drfted thousands of cattle
from the ranges north and west dow n
the Platte valley. and much damage
has been done by the half-famished an
finals eating up hay and fields of corn
stalks. Barted wire fences offered lit
tie obstruction to the hungry brutes.
The number of cattle upon the valley
is estimated at between 5000 and 90
600 head, scattered from Cozad to Kear-
ney. Owing to the extreme cold it was
for man to remain long out
of doors, and for several days the ami
mails had their own way. Farmers and
small cattle owners are indignant that
the feed they had provided against bad
weather should be devoured by the raid
ing herds from the ranges. The major
ity of the large stockmen have express
ed willingness to pay for the dam
age.

Everything passed off most pleas
antiy, and the company deserves the
highest praise for its elegant deport-

OF course there was not room for all

one of the gentlemen who, dur

occasionally peeped through the crack

When your correspondent, "Plus,"
lately said that Capt. Edison intended
removing from Beileview and leaving
one of his pickets to "Allie" on the old
homestead, my curiosity was excited
to know what was concealed behind
the intimation but the event just
chronicled explains the secret which
your then correspondent seems to have
been possessed Of.
I regret to lose Capt. Edison and
family as neighbors, who will soon re-
move back to Iron Mountain.
I should mention, by the way, that
Mr.. John Mckinney and his three
weeks bride were on hand at the we'd
tling-he as smiling and she as charm
ingly beautiful as ever.
With most kindly, delightful and
charming congratulations and good
low your young correspondent to
again retire into the shade from which
he, for the moment, ventured to ex-
pose his existence.
