ft Dyspeptic.
"I have been suffering for
over two years with Dyspepsia.
For the last year I could not
take a drink of cold water nor
cat any meat without vomiting
it up. .My life was a misery. I
liad hid recommended Sim
mons Liver Regulator, of which
I am now taking the second
bottle, and the fact is that
words cannot express the relief
I feel. My appetite is very
good, and I digest everything
thoroughly. I sleep well now,
and I used to be very restless
I am fleshing up fast; good,
strong food and Simmons Liv
er Regulator have done it all.
I write this in hopes of benefit
ing some one who has suffered
as I diil, and would take oath
to these statements if desired."

Lydia Alexander, of this city, has deeded
700 acres of land, valued at $20,000 to
the Regent of the Southwestern Univer

Eldoka, la., Nov.S. John Bunger, a
prominent farmer, who was a witness
against Rainsbargcr, was waylaid near
his home last ni-rht and seriously if not
fatally wouuded. His horse was killed
under him and his think was shattered

about a mile south of Abbott. Bunger
recognized three or four of his would-be
assassins, i lie siierut is now in pursuit.
Oil Boring.
Pale-stine, Tex., November 0. En
giueer Mayo sent iu his report to the
directors Tuesday morning of operations
in borin-i the fourth teft oil well. This
well has reached a depth of 80 fet-t, and
has reached a vein of water heavily im
pregnated with lubricating oil. Two
gallons were skimmed from the water.
Engineer Meyo is now using this oil on
the boring machinery just as it is taken
from the water, and lie pronounces it
superior in all respects to any lubricating
he has tiicd.
The Last License Expired.
Cuba, Mo., November 7. This is the
last day of the legal sale of intoxicants
in Crawford county, as the license of the
last saloon in the county expires to-day.
Many have come in to join the funeral
procession and have taken their last drink
at the bar as mourners over the fall of
persomal liberty. So the spirit of the
dying saloon departed by the way of
many sympathising throts. They are
having a wake to-night, and general good
humor prevails.
Lumber Ml. Is Clossd
Dcbuq.ce, la., November 9. The lum
ber mills of this city shut down Saturday
night after a successful season. The en
tire cut of lumber of the four mills will
aggregate about 60,000,000 feet, being at
least 5,000,000 more than last year. The
stock of lumber on hand is about the
same as last Year 45 000.000 feet. '.The
mills were to have run longer but for the
recent fires in the yards started by incen
diaries. The mill owners concluded it
was better to have their stock in logs
than in lumber, if they were to be burned
out. a.
Chicago's Military Carrison.
CniCAno, Pd., Nov. 9.--For the first
time in twenty-two j cars Chicago has a
military camp. Two companies of the
Sixth United States infantry under coin
mand of Maj. Lystcr arrived in this city
tins morning and proceeded to the mili
tary reservation at HighwooJ, wincii
was given to the government by the city
of Chicago. Immediately upon their ar
rival tin- "arrisun flat was run lip and
ta o

None of the oiiieers had the least ulca

A Coyornmont Telegraph.
Washington, 1). C, Nov. 9. A dozen
ambitious statesmen are coming to the
capital witli bills in tli'ir pockets for
the construction of government telegraph
lines. These systems of postal telegraphs
have been so successful in all the
Europe m countries where they have been
tried that the argument in favor of the
lulls will be very strong. Oi course,
w ith so much larger a country and popu
lation less dense, the cstablisoment of a
system of telegraphs here by tlie govern
ment would be in the nature of an ex
periment. Tlie general idea, however, is
that tlie mail and telegraph might be so
combined that telegrams to or from points
not actually reached by the wires could
be transferred by mail for the interven
ing distance between telegraph station,
and the point of origin or destination.
The strong fight that will be made against
the system, however, will be in the fact
that it would add many thousands to the
list of government employes, and bring
up the army of officeholders to 200,000
or perhaps 250,000, giving the party in
power a tremcudou3 leaverage in a po
litical way. It seems quite probable that
when the advocates of the scheme come
to talk it over they may be able to con
tent themselves with some kind of an
interstate bill for control of the present
systems, something on the interstate com
merce bill plan. ,
jority in this city and two members of
the board of supervisors were elec ted by
each part' in the country.

Ot HER VOTING.
REPUBLICAN RETURNS-
FIRST DISTRICT.
Tecumseh, Neb., Nov. 9. Johnson
county gives Appelget about 400 majori
ty, which carries the district without
doubt. On county officers the indica
tions are that Sutever (dem) for treasurer,
is elected over Davis (rep). Miss Emer
son (pro) is probably elected county
superintendent. Grimes (rep) by 300
majority for sheriff, Wilson (rep) is j)ro
bably elected for county judge by 100
majority. The balance of the ticket is in
doubt.
Beatrice, Neb., Nov. 9. Partial re
turns from the city and county indicate
that the entire republican ticket will be
elected by a majority ranging from 100
to 600. . For district judge, Broady will
probably carry the county by a small
majority and Appelget t511 poll the full
republican vote.
SECOSD DISTRICT.
Lincoln, Neb.. Nov. 9. At this hour
(2 a. m.) only two precincts in Lincoln
liave ruaclc returns, but from these indi
cations point to a majority in tlie city for
Field and Chapman, republican candi
dates for district judges, of from 000 to
S00.
Waveri.y, Neb.. Nov. 9. The repub
lican majority is 75; Field 80 majority;
Cook for sheriff, (dem.) has a majority
of 100.
Cheney, Neb., Nov. 9. A light vote
was polled, 109 votes being cast. The
republican candidates on state anel coun
ty tickets received from sixty-six to sev
enty. A. W. Field, 70; Chapnrnn, 49;
Sawyer, 55; Rocke, 78; Helmer, 12. .
Emerald, Neb., Nov. 9. The vote in
Middle Creek yesterday was as follows:
For juelge of the supreme court, Maxwell,
(rep.) 35; O'Day (dem.) 14; for regents,
Davis and Roberts, (rep.) 35; for district
juelge, Field (rep.) 50; Chapman, (rep.)
35; Sawyer, (dem.) 13.
third district.
The third district reports, except from
Omaha, are yet to come in, and part of
those from Omaha, but as much as is re
ported shows Omaha to e about 175
majority in favor of O'Day over Max
well, while for regents she is storng dem
ocratic. 1 he democratic district ludes.
in Omaha and alo the county ticket is
divided.
FOCRTn DISTRICT.
Colcmbus, Neb. Nov. 8. Gus G.
Beecher(rep.) is elected treasuaer over D.
Kavanaugh, the democratic war horse of
old Platte. M. C. Bloedern (rep.) is
elected sheriff. The republicans claim,
with a reasonabe degree of certainty, al
so the county judge, superintendent of
schools and the coroner. Official returns
come in slow.
Fremont, Nee., Nov. 8. Returns
from the country precincts of Dodge
county are coining in slowly, and the
result of to-day9 election cannot yet be
determine d. There is a republican ma-
New Yoi:k, Nov. 8. A large number
of arrests have been made for illegal
voting, but no trouble has yet occurred.
Tlie light over distiiet attorneyship is
overshadowing every other question and
both sides are confident. The George
vote in the city is smaller than tmtici-
pated.
Six hundred and fifty election districts
out of Sl 2 in thitJc-ity gav Grant 39,3'.M;
Cook, 08,911; George, 21,454; Hall,
3,241; Huntington 750.
Two hundred and forty-nine election
districts in New York state, outside New
York and Kings counties, give Cook,
35,935; Grant 43,543; Huntington, 4,398;
George 1,040. The same districts in 1S85
gave Hall, 3S.S05; Davenport, 47,115;
B iscom 3,309.
The Sun claims New York democratic
by 15,000 plurality.
Brooklyn, Nov. 8. Two hundred and
forty-one out of 200 in this city give
Grant, 39,584; Cook, 47,900; George, 13,
242; Huntington, 1,G50.
PiTTsnuiw, Nov. 8. Midnight. Re
turns on the state ticket have been very
meagre tonight, on account of the excit
ing contest on judiciary in Alleghany
county. It is safe, however to estimate
Hart's (rep.) plurality for state treasurer
at from 4,500 to 0,000. Slagle (rep.) for
judge of Alleghany county will probably
have 2,000 plurality, and the entire re.
publican county ticket is elected by from
1,500 to 4,000 plurality. There are 128
counties and fifty-five precincts in this
city and Alleghany city to hear from.
Cleveland, Nov. 8. Four preeinrt
m t"!;:velaiiei irive a repuiuican irain o:
eighty-nine find in one precinct a demo
cratic gain of ten.
Foity-one precincts show a net repub
lican gain of 1.473. Forakcr, 53.090;
Powell. 33,820; Seletz, 1.209; Sharps, 02.
Th'se precincts arc nearly all in Hamilton
county.
Cincinnati, Nov. 8. 10 p. in. The
republicans now claim th:: state by 35,-
000 majority.
IJoston, Nov, 8. One hundred and
fifty-two towns and eitics, including
Boston, Lowell and Gloucester, ive
Ames 71.898. Loverincr, 05,295. Indica
tions are that Ames, republican, is re
elected by an increased plurality.
The republicans claim to have gained
three or four sen tors and a dozen or
more representatives. Total returns so
far at republican headquarters show n
net loss in the stat-j of 8,400. The dem
ocrats cliiim the vote will be very close
when the returns are all ia.
Washington, Nov. 8. A private tele
gram received here at 11 o'clock announc
es that full returns in Richmond show
the democratic ticket elected by 718 ma
jority. Norfolk. Ya., Nov. 8. Its thought
Earner (dem.) has been elected to the
senate, a democratic gain. Northamp
ton county, a republican majority of 300.
Southampton county goes democratic
from 400 to 5"0 majority.
Chicago, Nov. 8. The republican city
and county ticket was elected t o day by
a large majority. Judge Gray was prac
tically unanimously re-elected, receiving
nearly all votes cast. Judge Longeneck
er. the republican candidate for state's
attorney, was also elected by an immense
majority. The vot? for county commis
sioners was overwhelmingly republican.
Des JIoixe?, Ia., Nov. 8. The polls
closed very late in Iowa. Many are not
closed at this hour, 6:40. The returns
will be late. Twelve precincts reported
up to this hour show scarcely any change
from last year. Returns from the city of
Des Moines will ba iu late, as the tickets
are badly scratched and counting did not
begin till late.
Register specials from 'forty-nine pre
cincts iu Iowa show a net democratic
gain of 768.
Maryland reports democratic, Rhode
Island reports mostly in favor of repub
licans; Detroit, Michigan, favors the
democratic city officials, and Mississippi
reports solid as democratic.
