Power tells a good one that he heard up the road. A far mer came into town and went into a strore to make some purchases. In paying for what he bought he iu cidently remarked that wheat was a pretty good price at present and that money was sure to be more plentiful.

Sullivan, of -Columbus, is the candidate of the free silver dreibuud for supreme judge, bavin; been nominated at Lincoln yesterday afternoon. It took twenty-two hours of: almost continnous wrangling and confusion in each of the individual conventions and con ference after conference between the leaders to reach this result. When the conference committee reported at 3:30 yesterday morning the agreement took the following form; " 'We recommend the three con yentions meet separately and bal lot separately forjudge. Ail nomi nations shall be presented to the three eonventions and balloting shall continue uutil one man shall receive a majority of two conven tions. Each ballot shall be an nounced to eachof the other con vention before another ballot is taken. The regents shall be given to the parties which do not secure the judge." The democrats endorsed W. H. Thompson, the tree silver republi cans endorsed C.R. Scott, and the populists William5 Neville, and then the matter hung all forenoon. Just before noon the democrats swung to Sullivan, the free silver republi cans followed, and the populists came in with the best grace possi ble, and the name of J. J. Sullivan, of Platte county, was hoisted to the head of the three-in-one ticket. "MAXWELL NOTES. Mr. and Mrs. Ehllers spent Satur day in North Platte. Supt. Dow of Ft.

Ui EVENTS IN NEBRASKA. S J? Scotts Bluff county has just car ried a proposition to bond the coun ty for $5,000 to build a court house at Gering. Captain Mercer has decided to make improvements at tlie Wirine bago agency headquarters to cost about 57,000. ; A human skeleton was plowed up near Gresham by Pat Parmer. There was no clothing, but two rings and a buckle, which were re tained for indentificatiou purposes in the event anyone comes along looking for a skeleton. Frank Hepperly of Madison was arrested on the charge of killing eleven prairie chickens, betore they became legally ripe. He was con victed and drew a fine of $55 and the payment of the costs of prose cution, amounting to $15 more. W. J. Maxwell, a prominent ranchmen near Sidney, met his death Saturday. He wag raking when he got off his rake to fix the harness. The horses reared and got him tinder foot when they ran away. The rake teeth penetrated his body and killed him. A boys' brigade has been organ ized by the pastor of the Kearney Congregational church, the objects being to advance the kingdom of Christ, promote abedience. rev erence, decipline and selt respect, all of which are good things to have in the family. Joe Stecker of Schuyler has a brother-in-law in the Klondike re gion and Joe says he is making a failure of his search for the pot of rrnA nf lltf hncp nf t lir nn rnra borealis. He has expended $1,600 and when last heard from needed about $500 to bring him home from that valley of dead men's bones. The Lincoln W. C. T. U. has pro tested vigorously against the grant ing by the secretary of- war a re quest from the school board to furn ish the Lincoln high school cadets with arms for drilling purposes. The Union does not approve of training the youth of the country in the arts of war, but is .for peace and lots of it. The Wayne Republican is flirt ing with the hens by citing the fact that on August 24th last year eggs were selliug at Wayne for only six cents per dozen, whereas on the same date this year they are bring ing ten cents. It hints that this may be caused to some extent by the action of that Ohio rooster. Mark Hanna. A syndicate of farmers near Homer bought a fine separator and traction engine to thresh dollar wheat in Dakota county. They put a green man on the engine to run it. In crossing a bridge over Omaha creek the engineer lost control ol it, ran it into the creek twenty .feet below, where the $2,400 outfit was piled in a scandalous heap. A strange coincidence is reported from Wayne. In the office of John T. Bressler, an insurance siirn of the Phoenix insurance company fell from the wall and striking a box of matches on a safe set them afire. They burned, but there was nothing near enough to the.n to catch fire from the blaze and so there was no damage. The insur ance sign didn't seem to be in good busines when it almost made its company a loss. Perhaps this should be regarded as a warning to advertise only in the newspapers. our Fine Black Kid" Shoes: "' 1 FOE LADIES " : 1 At $1.75, 82.00, 82.50 and $3.00.-'"" .

NAPOLEON'S VALUE OF VICT0SY. It Finds a'Strikin Counterpart hr Be cent World Trimnphs. Napoleon knew well the value of a victory. After Austerlitz the world seemed his. Fame invited, fortune favored, everything stimu lated his aspiring ambition. With growing power he had gathered the fruits of victory. And so has it ever been. Success succeeds. A notable illustration of this truth is furninhed by the great victories won at the World's Fair in '93 and the California Midwinter Fair in '94 by Prices Cream Baking Powder. Ever increasing sales and popu larity have been the result. The people have promptly ratified the official verdicts that declared Dr. Prices leavening powder, keeping qualities, purity and general excel lence the "foremost baking powder in all the world." Quite as quickly as the great Emperor do they know the value of a victory that means world-wide supremacy. Advertised Letters.
