The following from the Lincoln
Evening News of yesterday, gives a
more complete account of the career
of the late Samuel Waugh, whose
death was announced in lu3t even
ing's Journal, than we have been able
to produce:
Samuel Waugh who for four years
was vice consul to Germany ond for
several years a well known banker
of Nebraska, died at an early hour
this morning at the family home,
2503 O street. For the last three
years he had been a victim of pro
gressive paralysis, and his death was
not unexpected.
Mr. Waugh Is survived by a wid
ow, three sons and four daughters.
The children are Mrs. F. C. Buchtel
and Mrs. W. R. Arndt, both of Den
ver; Misses Florence and Helen of
Lincoln; Fred of Omaha, and Samuel
and Bryan of Lincoln. One son, John
R., is dead. The funeral which will
be private, will be held at the resi
dence Sunday afternoon. Burial will
be In Wyuka cemetery.
Mr. Waugh was born In Brook
county, West Virginia, In 1844. He
entered Princeton university and was
graduated from that Institution In
1868. While pursuing his studies at
Princeton he took an active part In
athletics. He was a member of the
'varsity base ball team of that uni
versity in the sixties.
A few years after his graduation
Mr. Waugh came to Nebraska, locat
ing at Crete, where he engaged in
the banking business. In 1875 he
was married to Miss Flora Rawlins at
West Point, Neb.
While at Crete Mr. Waugh was ap
pointed vice counsel to Germany with
headquarters at Chennitz, Saxony. He
served In this capacity for four years,
from 1876 to 1800. N. K. Griggs, who
was found dead on a train at Alli
ance a few weeks ago, was counsel
to Germany at the time.
Returning to Nebraska, Mr. Waugh
again engaged in the banking busi
ness at Crete. At this place he was
closely associated with Archibald
Scott, who was paying teller at the
First National bank and who died In
the city last night.
From Crete Mr. Waugh moved with
his family to Ashland to take up the
same line of business. Later he re
moved to Plattsmouth where he was
connected with the First Uational
bank of that place. He was cashier
of the latter Institution for several
years. Five years ago he moved to
Lincoln with his family.
INTERESTING CASE IN
JUSTICE ARGHER'S COURT
From Saturday's Dally.
Judge M. Archer was engaged In
the trial of a damage suit in which
Charles Matous of Havelock is plain
tiff and Edward Donat, defendant.
The amount in controversy Is $48 and
attorney fees of $100, and grew out
of the assignment of the claim of $48
by Mr. Donat to a Kansas City party
who brought suit on the claim in the
Missouri Jurisdiction and tied up the
plaintiff's wages amounting to some
thing over $80 for a period of about
to months. Mr. Matous employed an
attorney at Lincoln and one at Kan
sas City and contested the attach
ment suit, having the same dismiss
ed, and this expense and statutory
penalties is what he seeks to recover
in the suit on trial today. The case
has some Interesting features, as the
court In which the attachment suit
was brought was one of the sort some
attorneys style "rabbit courts," and
it appears that the legality of this
court has been questioned and Its
acts not all sanctioned by the super
ior courts of Missouri. Attorney A.
L. Tidd appears for Mr. Matous whil
Judge A. N. Sullivan tried the case
for Mr. Donat.

Fine Honey.
Julius NeLlson, engineer In the
Burlington yards, brought to ' the
Journal office Thursday evening a
couple of pounds of the finest honey
that ever was placed upon a hot bis
cuit. Clear as a crystal and as sweet
as the bees could make It, and now
maybe you think It wasn't tooth
some and delicious? Eh! Julius Is
a worker among the bees at odd times
and has been very successful. He
has quite a number of hives and by
close attention to them they produce
quite a quantity of the "sweetness,"
over and above of what Is used for
home consumption, which always
finds a ready sale upon the market.
Thanks, Julius, and "may you live
long and your shadow never grow
less."
Enjoyable Visit.
From Saturday's Dally.
Jas. A. Walker of Murray came up
on the early morning train today,
accompanied by his cousin, J. C.
Walker, of Pittsburg, Pa., whom he
has not seen for some years, ana
who paid him and his family a short
visit. They boarded the early morn
ing Burlington train eastward bound
for Ottumwa, la., where they go to
visit another cousin, Tom Walker, of
that city, where they no doubt will
have the time of their lives. Mr.
Walker will return home" about Mon
day evening at which time J. C. Walk
er will pursue his Journey homeward.
The Culmination of a Pretty
Romance Beginning About
Two Years Ago.
John I. Long, the hustling editor
of the Nehawka News, would, evi
dently, make a good reporter for a
daily, as he has a sly way of getting
on to incidents several days before
they occur. Here Is the way he re
lates a wedding that Is soon to occur
In which a prominent young man of
Nehawka is a party thereto:
The culmination of a pretty ro
mance that has Its beginning a couple
of years ago, will be the marriage
next Wednesday, September 2S, at
the home of the bride's parents at
Parker, South Dakota, of Miss Lois
Wiltse of that place and J. J. Pollard
of Nehawka.
Miss Wiltse taught school here for
the two years prior to this term and
during this time "Jimmie" laid Blege
to and won her heart, and while the
outcome surprises none, the fact that
this paper Is able to foretell the event
so accurately may be a surprise to
some, as Mr. Pollard has the reputa
tion of keeping things of vital Inter
est to himself. However, we wish to
assure the parties most concerned,
that no one has told, and the con
clusion is but the composite result of
a nose for news, possessed by the
whole staff of this paper. The fact
that people talk in their sleep has
nothing to do w ith it.
Miss Wiltse won a host of friends
during her residence here and by
winning ways and lovable disposi
tion endeared herself to all with
whom she became acquainted. No
small evidence of her good taste Is
her choice of a husband, as Jimmie
Pollard, as everybody knows him, Is
one of the sterling young men of this
community. A young man of sterling
parts, the youngest son of Mrs. Lena
Pollard whose farm he conducts suc
cessfully and whose idol he is. Born
and reared to manhood in this com
munity he has endeared himself to
all and has won an enviable reputa
tion for his sterling worth.
Immediately after the marriage the
young people will leave for Elizabeth,
N. J., where they will spend their
honeymoon visiting relatives of the
groom and will be at home to their
friends in Nehawka some time next
month, Just when we are unable to
say a3 this is the only particulars
In which our reporter fell down. The
News extends congratulations and
begs forgiveness.

or Impractical. At last, however. It
seems os if the problem has been
solved.
A German Inventor named Hartwlg,
after studying the matter and experi
menting for a number of years, has
found a mnterlal for lining bathing
suits which keeps the wearers afloat.
In fact. It is said that one Is as safe
from drowning when In the water In a
suit thus lined as If he were on dry
land. One groat advantage of the dis
covery Is that the lining adds little
to the weight of the suit and makes
It strong, but not cumbrous.
Trsts made abroad with this safety
lining suit have attracted great at
tention. A number of people unable
to swim a stroke have donned thorn
and lenped Into water twenty or thirty
feet deep, where they have floated as
easily as If made of cork. Should the
suits prove all that Is claimed for thorn
timid folks will now have little trouble
in learning to swim, and there seems
to be no reason why the safety lining
should not be used for clothes to be
worn by those traveling by sea.

Just as the idea of PROVIN
CIALISM has worked other evils,
bo it has worked tho wnsto of our
natural resources. Tho PRO
VINCIAL idea was that the nat
ural wealth, belonging to all tbo
American people, ohould bo hand
ed over for nothing to special in
terests. This was dono under tho
plea of encouraging individual en
terprise and hastening local devel
opment. And so forests which onco bo
longed to all tho people have been
ruthlessly felled, and upon their
ruins have risen the empires of
our lumber kings. Priceless de
posits of coal, iron ore and copper
which once belonged to all the peo
ple have been surrendered freely
TO SPECIAL INTERESTS.

it that settlers are waiting in dis

So faulty has been tho adjustment
