GaTcrBment Takes Strps to Indefinite! Postpone "FureelosHre. Omaha, Feb. 11. It is altogether probable that the' foreclosure sale of the Kansas Pacific railroad will not take place at Topeka next, week. General Cowin yesterday received telegraphic instructions from Hon. George E. Hoadley, chief counsel lor the govern ment, to proceed to St. Louis at once for the purpose of representing the gov ernment in the foreclosure proceedings. General Cowin will ask on behalf of the government for an indefinite post ponement of the foreclosure sale of the Kansas Pacific road tind the appoint ment of receivers for the road by the federal court to take possession of the property and manage it until the fore closure sale shall have taken place, or a settlement of the debt of the road to the government shall h-ive been maae. General Cowin will also make a mo tion to the federal court on behalf of the government to redeem the bonds and pay off the prior lien, commonly known as the first jmo rtgagc. PROMOTOR GRABLE IN-OMAHA. Talk"0,nIte Freely K-garl!ng Ills Finan cial OiliicnUIes. Oxaha; Feb. 10. Francis C. GraMe, promoter of - western townsite ' com panies, mining corporations and irriga tion schemes arrived in Omaha from St. Louis yesterday. During the morn ing Mr. G ruble was closeted with an old friend, who has also acted as coun sel at times for his various companies. He refused to see anyone, saying that he was ob vocally unfitted to be inter viewed or to be troubled with affairs which have hard pressed him. Later, however, Mr. Grable consented to see representatives of the press, and talked quite freely of the present condition of his various enterprises. He said: "I had all mv plans laid and the ar rangements made by which I would have paid back every dollar of my loan to the Chemical National back within 60 days. I so told President "Williams afewdavs before the resignation of Cashier Quinlan was requested." Mr. Grable stated that he would re main in the city for several days in or der to recruit his nerve forces and that he would then visit Edsemont and the other interests in that vicinity- with which he is identified. He asserted that he -would then return east and would use all his energies to replace the "Edtremont investments upon a solid financial footing. Boycott the Galf Koad. Kansas Crrr, Feb. 11. A boycott was declared on the Kansas- City, Pitts burg and Gulf railway- by the Santa Fe, the Southern Pacific and the Cotton Belt lines, all members of the South western Trafiic bureau. Other lines in tf-o fwnMnfl have, it is said, acreed to take the same action. The roads men-; tinned notified the Pittsbunr and Gulf j that after 30 days they would refuse to accept or deliver freight shipments originating in or destined to points in Texas from that road, the object being toshutODt the boycotted road from doing business in Texas, -wherein its railway terminates and its European steamship line bejnns. The Pittsburg and Gulf has steadfastly refused to be come a member of any trafiic combine. Jiter Disposing ef His 'Wheat, Chicago, Feb. 12. It- is positively stated that contracts for moving: 3,500, 000 bushels of Leiter wheat to the sea board have been made. The cereal -will be carried oir& through rate from Chi cago toLiTerpopL It is estimated that the Leiter holdings ofwheatin fids city and afloat will- exceed 10,000,000 bushels- and since a. recent vMfr to this city of the eastern exporters the suspicion has arisen that the entire amoaafr has been disposed otos, British, syndicate. Freight men do nct deny that negotia tions looking'io-' the placing of large contracts have been pending for some time, and it is asserted on reputable authority that every prominent eastern line codsecting with Chicago has been invited to bid on. the transportation, of an iedefisitely large amoant of wheat t0 the seaboard.

"As I stopped to change cars at Princeton, Lid.," said a gentleman who has just arrived in the city from Ken tucky, "I was greatly puzzled at the sight which met my eyes. Though my home is near Princeton,, I had sever been in the town before and I had no personal knowledge of the people who lived there There was great silence at the railway station, and, thosgh many persons were moving about, no one ut tered a word. 'Is it a town of deaf mutes?1 1 said to myself. "Bet presently mj eyes were blinded by many small mirrors, as it seemed to me, casting a dozen shadows in my eyes from the bands of as many burly ne groes. It seemed no. matter of fun to them to cast these shadows. They were grimacing, contorting their faces and twisting their fingers in a manner strange to see. 'No deaf mutes, but lunatics, I said to myself, and I began to look for some safe means of exit. But these dumb, grimacing creatures were on all sides of the platform and as I advanced one way or the other those at that point lunged toward me and I saw I was a prisoner. "It was a frightful feeling for a few moments, and then a rational explana tion of the scene was made. Conquering my timidity, I went boldly to one of the biggest of tho black men, and, seiz ing him by the shoulder, I said, as a hypnotist might sny, 'What do yc mean by casting- shadows in my eyes? The man caught me by the coat sleeve and whispered in my ear: '111 tell you, boss, but I has to whisper, 'cause we ain't allowed to talk. You has to come to me. I can't come and git you. They won't let us stand on the platform.' "Then I found ont that these silent men had once been the vociferative, Ehouting hackmcn who make themselves so omnipresent on the platform stations of most small towns. The good people of Princeton determined tolive in peace and quiet, and, by act of the city coun cil, they prohibited the i&ckmen from using their voices. But even this did not abate the nuisance. The hackmen would run up to the train and almost carry away their patrens- by force. So the city council passed a law forbidding them to stand on the platform. Deprived of speech and power of locomotion, theso hackmen had a happy thought. Each one bought a bright tin plate and had the name of his hotel embossed on the plate in raised letters. So they all stand there, waving their tin plates and never uttering a sound." St. Louis Globe-Demccrat. THE CARE OF PEARLS. JZven a Drop cf lemonade Is Sufficient to Enin Tkeir Appearance. American girls- are fond of pearls and have no superstitious fears that they mean "tears." It may not be known to the possessors of these gems that pearls are regarded as "well" or "ill" from a jeweler's point of view. Like human beings, they require fresh air to be kept alive. In other words, they must be worn and not remain too long in a clos ed case. Judges of pearls can tell by looking at them whether the gem is "lucido" (clear and healthy), orwheth er it is. beginning to be an invalid Ex perts talk of pearls "dying," they some times becoming discolored and turning black. A black pearl may be a handsome stone, but it has not the evanescent rainbow suggestions to be seen in a milky or rosy pearl. Italian women, who know a great deal about pearls, wear their necklaces and "ropos" con stantly. This gives them the light and ar required by the mysterious forma tions, and yet they are not exposed to the chances cf discoloration by being touched with acid It is easier to keep pearls" in fair con dition when they are set in a lacepin or in necklaces. It is hard to care for them in a finger ring. One must be care ful to remove them not only in washing the hands, but they should never be worn when there is likelihood of being touched by food or drink. About a month ago the owner of a beautiful pink pearl worn in a finger ring was alarmed to find the stone was darkening and becoming covered with an opaque dark crust. She took it to her jeweler, who pronounced it a case of "scale." He told her the delicate sub stance had been in contact with some acid, and as she insisted this had not happened he reminded her that a drop of lemonade would be sufiicient to do the mischief. She then remembered drinking lemonade while the ring was on her ungloved band. The only remedy for scale is a remov al of a whole layer of the pearl. This is an excessively delicate business, which should be done Ly an expert workman, and never undertaken by apprentice hands. It is a costly business and re duces the size and value of the pearl that must undergo the operation. Phil adelphia Record The Eoyal Reign of VelTet. Velvet in all colors is immensely popular this winter and is used in every conceivable way and in all sorts of gar ments. Young and old wear it with equal propriety, and the evening gown of velvet, which has heretofore been rel egated to the wardrobe cf the matronly woman, finds special favor with young women. Black velvet gowns are made elegant with jet passementerie, and old point lace is brought out on the waist. Some of the skirts are perfectly plain, while others are profusely trimmed with jets, black silk embroidery or chiffon ruches. But in every instance at least an attempt at a train must be seen.

Ax Xactaeat VTkfck 3de IareSexate .Enemy ta GaWlf. Prince Bismarck has long been an in veterate enemy tojhe wholesale system of gambling, which is "preserved," as it were, at Monte Carlo and similar es tablishments on the contiseat. His antipathy Is due to tragedy which was enacted under his very eyes at Baden Baden more than 30 years ago. During the season at that place, which was of more than average bril liancy, he would himself go into one of the gambling galocr-, which was fre quented by the highest aristocracy and the members of the diplomatie corps. Although he played little he would oc casionally venture small sums. If he won, he would venture his original stake again and again, but if he lost at the first coup he retired from the table. One day while Bismarck was stand ing at a table a young man and a beau tiful woman came in. He was a baron and had only recently married and was on his wedding trip with his bride. The man began to play. At first fortune fa vored him, and he won. Then his luck turned. He began ta lose. With each loss he became more desperate. The beautiful woman by his side vainly strove to tear him away. The fever- of gambling had taken hold of his brain. The more the woman be- sou; ;ht the more the man ventured. Hundreds of francs grew into thousands, and thousands after thousands were raked in by the croupier. The whole table was watching this fighter with fortune, and among them no one was more intent than Bismarck himself At last the gambler put a larger stake than ever on the table, and again he lost. He rose and whispered a word to his wife, and they left the room together. Nobody in a gambling saloon heeds the ruined man, and the game went on as before, less feverishly perhaps and without such large stakes. Suddenly, without a moment's warn ing, the report of a pistol rang through the room. Some people hurried out. There on the ground lay the body of the ruined man, a bullet wound in his head, from which a thin stream of blood was flowing. By the side of the body, distracted, almost turned to stone by the horrible situation, stood the beauti ful young wife, now a widow. Suddenly her restrained feelings over came her, and with one wild shriek she fell by the side of tho dead man. Bis marck was one of the onlookers who had seen the result of tho fearful trage-j "This horrible business must stop," j he exclaimed. j It did stop. In the course of a few years every public gambling house in Germany was abolished. Pierson'fi Weekly HOMEOPATHY. UoreccMtracted Bishop Wllmer's Appli cation of It to His Work. This is a story an Alabama man tells me of Bishop Wilmer, and I hope you won't think it too sectional. It happen ed soon after the war. Bishop Wilmer had gene to a northern city to ask aid for a Confederate orphans home ho was interested in. He hadn't been north for several years, and his old friends gave him a hearty welcome. There was a dinner in his honor, and after dinner the bishop was begged to tell a story or two. The bishop said he hadn't a story. "But," he added, "I've got a conun drum. Why are we southerners like Lazarus?" The guests they were all Union men, by the way suggested many an swers. The southerners were like Laz arus because they were poor, because they ate of the crumbs from the rich man's table ; because because of every thing anybody could guess. "No," said the bishop, "you're all wrong.' We're like Lazarus because," and he smiled blandly, "because werve been licked by dogs." A roar of laughter went round at that, for the bishop's utter unrecou structedness was always one of his charms. Everybody laughed but one mottle faced man, who became very indignant. "Well," he snorted, "if you think we're dogs, why in not earth have you come up here to beg for our money for the money of dogs?" The bishop chuckled "My mottled friend," said he, "the hair of the dog is good for the bite. That's why I've come." Washington Post. Stores His Silver Cheaply. "As I am not keeping house I have no use for my silver, so I determined tc put it where it would not be so liable to be stolen as in my flat," said a busi ness man the other day. "Simultane ously with this determination earner the need of a considerable sum of money. I therefore put the silver in charge of a benevolent concern, which charges no more interest on the money it lent, with the silver as security, than a bank ox than a safe deposit company would charge for storing the silver. I am con sequently either paying no interest on the loan or getting my silver stored for nothing; I don't exactly know which." New York Sun. The Other Fellow. "So you think Agnew is a pigheaded fool, eh? What has given you that opin ion of him?" "We talked for half an hour this morning and couldn't agree on a single point." Chicago News. A naval battle between the Romans and Carthaginians off the coast of Spain in the first Punic war was lost by the latter because the galley slaves could cot keep their seats when the ships rolled. The Indian population of the Domin ion of Canada is said to be 122,000, of whom about 38,000 are Soman Cath ilics and the same number Protestants. Antwerp Bells. From the cathedral tower at Antwerp 80 bells have for over 200 years rung out the grandest music for the benefit of the people living on the green fields which border the Scheldt Once a year, in the month of" February, the authori ties select the music, and the organ plays every hour from the old masters of Christian song.

It is but a ittle thing, yet oa its proper use depends mach of. the bappi of modern man. " Why " civilized teeth should be eo rotten is a question which has often been defeated,, and prob ably the trueanswerJB more complex than some would thisk. Many good i mothers are content to pet all toothache: down to lollipops, but that sugar in it- selx is not responsible tor bad teeta is proved by the splendid "ivories" often possessed by negroes who: practically live upon the sagar cane and thrive upon it, too, during the whole of the season when it is: in maturity. Dental I decay is common enough, however, among negroes m towns, and it seems clear that 'the caries of the.teeth which is so common among most civilized races is due not to any particular article of diet so much as to digestive and nu tritive changes imposed upon us by cur mode of life and to some extent by the fact that by hook or crook we do some how manage to live, notwithstanding our bad teeth, whereas in a state cf na ture the toothless man soon dies. Becognizing, then, that until the time arrives when some great-social reformer either mends or ends our present social conditions our teeth will tend to rot, and that, whatever the predisposing causes, the final actin the production of caries istbe lodgment of microbes on and around the teeth, we see that for long to come the toothbrush will be a necessity if the health is to be main tained It is only by the frequent use of this little instrument that those minute accumulations can be removed which are at the root of so much mischief. A few elementary lessons in bacteriology would, we fancy greatly startle many people and certainly would show them the futility of trusting to one scrub a day. The fact is that if people, instead of looking at the toothbrush trom an aesthetic point of view, and scrubbing away with tooth powders ( !) to make their front teeth white, would regard "it merely as an aid to cleanliness, they would see that the time to use it is aft er meals and at night, not just in tho morning only, when the debris is left from the day before has been ferment ing and brewing acid all night through. They would also see how inefficient an instrument the common toothbrush i3 unless it is used with considerable judg ment. One of the secondary advantages of spending a good deal cf money on dentistry is that at least one learns the value of one's teeth. By the time we have got them dotted over with gold stoppings and gold crowns we learn to take care of them, even although that may involve tho trouble of cleaning them more than once a day and using perhaps more than one brush for the purpose. Hospital. Naming- the Baby. She was a young mother, and it was her first. It was tho prettiest, the most intelligent in fact, there never was such an infant. So she thought it should have a name which would distinguish it from all others. After a great deal of thinking she announced her decision. "Papa, " she said to the happy father, "I have thought of a name for the baby. We will call her Imogen. " Papa was a matter of fact man, who knew there was nothing in that baby different from most others, and he didn't wish to see his child saddled with a name that wouldn't fit in with other circumstances. "Fancy her marrying a man named Snooks, " he thought. "Imogen Snooks will sound nice, won't it? But if I say so she'll begin, to cry and will insist upon it." After a little refection he thought of a plan. "I think that's a lovely name, my dear I" he cried. "It was my first sweet heart's. She will take it as a compli ment, and it will always remind me. Yes, that and your dear mother's name, Mary, are the best I know." "I think, papa," she said after a pause, "we had better call her Mary, after my mother." . And the artful man chuckled to him self.

Chicago Tribune. 0! the Breast. Mr. A. H. Crausby, of 158 Kerr St., Memphis, Tenn., says that his wife paid no attention to a small lump which appeared in her breast, but it soon de veloped into a cancer of the worst type, and notwithstanding the treatment of the best physicians, it continued to spread and grow rapidly, eating two holes- in her breast. The" doctors soon pronouncea her incurable. A celebrated New York specialist then treat ed her, but she con tinned to grow worse and when informed that both her aunt andgrandmotherhad died from cancer he gave the case up as hopeless. Someone then re commended S.S.S. and though little hope remained, she begun it, and an improvement was noticed- The cancer commenced to heal and when she had taken several bottles it disappeared entirely, and although sev eral years have elapsed, not a sign of the disease-has ever returned.
