As an alleviator of pain and hemorrhage, a healer of wounds, or as a subduer of any kind of inflammation, this Extract has gained a reputation and sale extraordi nary, that it warrants the assumption that it is an article of great virtue. It is en dorsed by medical men, who more readily lend it their praise ou account of its being merely a distilled extract of the Hamamel-is, or Witch Hazel shrub, which is favorably mentioned in the medical work of all schools. 25,000 Consumptives in the United States are to-day using Dr, S.

Howe's Arabian Milk Cure for Consump tion. It gives immediate relief, with the most satisfactory prospects of being perma nently xor coughs, colds, hoarse ness, catarrh, and asthma, it is infallible, No family should at this inclement season of the year be without it a single hour, especially where there are children inclined tn croup.

23 il I TJ G- 3 FU RR So Was, the First of the Glad -New Year, With, its Joys and Gladness, Laughter, Smiles, and Words of Merry Cheer. THE FIE5T. No day, since the foot of the venterous pioneer from the east was first planted upon the 'soil where the beautiful metropolis of Kansas now stands, has been so generally i observed by all classes and grades of society as was day before yesterday. The number of ladies who kept "open house" was unprecedented, and' few there were, who neglected to avail themselves of the generous hospitality extended. From early morn till dewy eve, (midnight) could be heard the constant rumble of carriages, bearing merry parties of gay revelers to their different destinations, and the steady tramp of the LEGION OF YOUNG MEN whose poverty lorbade the hiring of a pub lic conveyance, but who made their calls, right royally, on foot all the same.

There was, in proportion to the calls made, and the quantity of malt and spirituous liquors disposed of, comparatively little di unken-ness, and the sight of an individual very far gone with either enthusiasm or a superabundance of spirits, was not unusual, though not often met with. All through the day, and during the greater part of the night, the usually quiet resident streets and avenues were fairly alive with well-dressed young men on the way to visit their lady friends. SWEABING OFF. And this First Day of the Glad New Year was remarkable tor another circumstance, a something which embodied within iUelf more than is within any young man to accomplish the swearing off from bad habits. Hundreds of the youth looked with streaming eyes upon the stump of the cigar which was to be their "very last the wine never looked redder or more fascinating as they held it up before their enrap-turedgaze to take their "last the click of the billiard balls had never before sounded BO pleasant as when ou Monday, the "last game" was played the churches never looked so.

A dancing party was given at Woolf's Hall, in honor of the return of Mr.

Quite a large crowd was in attendance at the court yesterday morning, expecting to hear further developments with regard to the riot of the night previous, and to hear any remarks His Honor might have to oner. Nothing, however, was said unless it might have been a casual remark regarding the disposition of cases on the previous day, which consisted of Neeley Sales and Jesse Williams, accused of indecent conduct, and Ed. Clark, arrested for drunkennessall of whom were "let go," as the bulletin shows. The business of the morning was begun by the announcement that Louisa Broggan had been drunk again, and that she was present to plead for hertelf. She attempted an explanation, but her swollen face and Bhaking limbs caused her to be held as an old offender, and she was fined five dollars.

Levi Warren next was scrutinized, and as his face gave ample evidence of a New Year's spree, he, too, was asseseed a fine of 55 for drunkenness. Ed. Hammond and James Carroll, for indulging in the pleasurable pastime of breaking peoples' show-windows, were each fined $20 and sent down stairs. J. L.

Byers, for neglecting to repair sidewalks when notified to do so, will have a hearing this morning. The riot cases will be heard this morning- THE GOLDEN LINK. Marriage of Mr. Thos. LwnarH sod Hlsvs Emma M.

Hoy at Junction City, Kansas-. To the very intimate friends of Mr. Thos. Leonard, one of the esteemed hosts of the Mansion' House, the news of his marriage was, probably, not as great a surprise ss it was to people generally. That he had an eye upon matrimony was, perhaps, suspected, but who it was, when it was to come off, no one had, probably, the remotest idea.

Consequently, when the news arrived here and wtfs made public, many there were who would gladly have greeted him and wished him supreme happiness. But there was one obstacle in the way, Tom wasn't here, there being naught bn explanatory tel-gram, which read follows Married At taction City, Kansas, January 2d, at the lie Church, by the Rev. Father Curios, Thomas Leonard and Miss Emma M. Hoyt, both of Leavenworth. Mr.

and Mrs. Thomas Leonard will, upon their return to this city, receive a greeting not wanting in warmth or heartiness, t-nd none there are who will not say, "God speed A Disturbance at Laing'sHall on Mon day Night, Which May Result in the Death of Officer Greelish. On Monday night the members of the Ladies' Benevolent Society held a festival at Laing's Hall, which, for a time, was quiet and orderly, but toward 12 o'clock some of the male visitor, becoming some what under the influence of liquor, got up a quarrel which much disturbed the The controversy seemed, from what could he learned by a reporter, shortly after the occurrence of the disgraceful scene, which followed, to have begun between a man from the Fort named Ben. Thompson and a barber named Charles Henry, who works at the planters' House. While they were wrangling, some one left the hall in search of a policeman, in order to preserve quiet.

As it was about 12 o'clock, and roll-call, Officer Grover was the first policeman found. leaving- the and he be coming apprised ot the disturbance, al though it was not on his beat, went at once, after getting Officers Canning ham and Greelish to accompany him, lo the hail. Feeling1 perfectly safe, they walked in, and Officer Grover having been previously advised as to the principal offender, walked up to Ben Thompson, whom he at once discovered to be a man for whom he held a warrant of some weeks standing, and attempted to take him into custody. The disturbance referred been quieted before their arrival, W. Town-send, who, accompanied by Rev.

T. W. Henderson, was silting close to him, jumped up and interfered by saying that everything was quiet and no arrest was necessary. Grover knew his warrant of previous date, meant to take his man, and he, after pushing Townsend aside, endeavored to take charge of Thompson The latter finding himself backed by a large number of his friends, resisted the law, and stated that, as he had not done anything, be would not go anywhere, with anybody unless he wanttd to. Grover made another attempt to take him but was repulsed.

He then struck Thompson over the bead with his "billy," breaking the latter to atoms. His comrades, Cuoningham and Greelish, were close behind him to render assistance, but the simultaneous rising of the whole number of the men in the end of the house near the combatants, tendered their, pres ence powerless. In less time than it takes to relate it, the entire male portion of the auaience was a surging mass, and the air was thick with chairs flying toward the officers. The fight beginning at the stage, in the south end of the hall, was con tinued, against the three policemen, who fought their way inch by inch the fall length of the room to the stairway, at the north end of the building, making more ef forts to detend themselves irom death than anything ehe. aching the Btairway and already covered with1 the officers endeavored to make a stand.

Here officer Greelish who had, by got on the outside of the balustrade, and was attempt ing to get back to the top oi the landing, waa met by a chair which being driven with hercule strength felled him at once to the floor, where he lay a bleeding mass, being already weak from the loss ef blood. Grover and Cunningham were cut offfrom him in such a manner as to be unable to render him any assistance, and, were in fact, hard pushed to protect their own lives. They were forced down the sta rs by the surging crowd, and fully one-third of the large chairs in the hail were hurled after them, forming a perfect barricade for the time at the foot of the stair-case. Capt. Greelish waa picked up insensible, and taken down into the street after the fight was over and found to be most dangerously injured.

He was placed in a hack and taken to his home on Broadway near Kickapoo street, where he now lies in a critical condition, having received such injuries about the head and breast, as to cause some doubt as to his ultimate recov-erv. Officer Grover received several severe wounds about the head and body, which will place him the weak list, does not bear of consequence. for a few days on Officer Cunningham any external marks but is badly bruis ed about the body. Several- of the opposing party were wounded. After the riot, for it was nothing else, Ben Thompson and Towneend were arrested.

The latter was, during police court, released on a bond of 10, white Thomp-on was held in bonds of $100 for tLe assault on Greelish, and $10 for dis orbing the peace. Both will have a hearing this morning. They have both been before the police OX THE SHOOT. A County Prisoner Attempts an Es capade and is Shot by tne Guard. THE STILL HUNT.

Yesterday afternoon vague rumors of a prisoner having been shot by one of the guards at the county jail, were current, and in order to get at the iacts in the case, a Times reporter called at the county jail. Meeting Lawrence Brady, one of the guard, the reporter questioned him in regard to the affair, and was informed that there had been a man ehot, that he waa in the jail at that time, and that he could but would not give a particulars regarding the affair. Not understanding this mytstery which seemed to surround this matter, the reporter asked Mr. Brady the reason for this reticence, and was informed that he would give nothing to The Times whatever; that should the reporter of any other journal call, the particulars would be given cheerfully. He didn't think The Times had treated the institution fairly, and consequently the facts in regard to the case couldn't be forthcoming.

ON THE TRAIL. About an hour after this, at half past four o'clock, the reporter again called at the iail and found Dick Moore, the guard. charged with shooting the aforesaid prisoner, and questioned him in regard to the facts in the case, but received the same an swer, that he couldn't and wouldn't give The Times any information whatever. Taking out his nole-brok to jot down this precious intelligence, Dick looked askance at the reporter, and asked what he was do ing Being informed, he seemed somewhat nervous, and turning to Jtsrady he asked him. sotto voce, if he hadn't better give The Times the facts in the case.

Upon consideration of th subject, Brady thought it would be well enough to do so, and accordingly Dick delivered himself of the follow ing STATEMENT OF FACTS: Moore had, early in the morning, taken four of the prisoners out to County Attorney Goddard's residence, on South Broad way, to saw that gentleman's wood. Things went on smoothly enough until about noon, when one ot the prisoners, Alexander Brad-shaw, aliaa White, broke from the gang and started to run. Moore shouted to him four or five times to stop, hut Bradshaw, paying no attention, kept on. Moore then fired three shots at him, the first missing him entirely, the second striking him in the back of the head, and traveling along under the scalp, came out at the forehead, staggering, but not stunning him. He stambled along for about ten feet, when he suddenly straightened up again, and ran ahead.

The third shot missed him, and: he so disappeared. He was afterwards found hidden in a hayloft about three squares away, and taken to the county jail, where Dr. Jones attended to his wound. He is not badly hurt and will recover. The main question is, what right has anyone to order the county prLoners to work at anybody's private residence, or to work for anyone except the county WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 3, 1877.
