Jesse James killed Ed. Miller, his
companion in crime, wlillo tho latter
'was asleep. That was mor cowardly
than Ford's net when ho guvo Jesso

Carter Harrison was elected to a
third term as mayor of Chicago and
the aldermanio election in that oity re
sulted in -the olection of about two
democrats to ono republican.
Tho Calvert school opened Monday
morning under the management of
Miss Ella Dyas.an experienced and ac
complished teacher. About forty
scholars are in attendance. Tho
school will doubtless prosper under
Miss I) 'scare.
Old mother Samuels, mother of tho
highwayman, said when wetping for
her son, "Well, Jesse is bettor oil in
heaven than with us." And travelers
and trains, and stage coaches, art bet
tor oil with Jesso in tho bandit's heaen
than "with us," certainly.
Humor has it that a marriage has

Billy Williams is tho best political
orator In Indiana, and by his offectlvo

Tho ladies of the M. E. church will

Page, of California, Oth inst. intro
duced another antl-Chinose immigra
tion bill. Au tlioDomocrats who had
hills ready on tho same subject 'were
worried because Pago got there tlrst.
Page's bill excludes tho celestials for
H) years instead of 20, as in tho vetoed
bill, and otherwise modifies tho pro
visions, so that, us Is believed, the pres
ident can indorse it.
Tho Democratic pa'ty having run
out of issues upon which tho masses of
tho party can unite, is meditating tho
issue of free whiskey. Tho question
is looming up as ono of national im
portance, and sooner or later voteis
will compel leaders and platform mak
ers to take knowledge of the fuct.-Wfi-ter
Ocean.
A negro boy in Chicago, only 12
years old, was recently arrested for
picking n Tiilo lock, in general ,Uso in
pjstoflices, and abstracting mail mat
ter. Tho Yale lock was thought to
dofy thd fngonulty of thieves, yet the
littlo nigger did it with u" simple Hat
piece of iron.
Tho Washington correspondent of
the Omaha Republican, speaking of Col.
Tom Majors' chance for liilmlssion to a
seat in Congress, saya: "1 supposo the
telegrams have informed al! our politi
cians and th oho interested, of the al
most unanimous report which lias been
secured from the committee in favor of
the admission of Majors, Supplement
arily it may again bo assorted that the
chauces of Majors' success are largo
and growing. Thanks to tho firmness
and kindness of tho speaker, and tho
sagacity and good judgment of thoso
having it in charge on tho floor, the
matter is now in such shape in tho
house that it can bo called up as a priv
ileged question -whenever tho friends
of the causa may think it oxpediont."

Kdltor Advertiser!
I haVo read, with a feeling something
liko envy, tho poetical contributions
Hint have appeared from time to time
in tho columns of tho Advkutiskk,
and I thought that perhaps I, too,
might accomplish something in tho
way of poetry, if I tried. So, after
considerable thinking I constructed
tho following pastoral poem, which J.
rospoctfnlly dedicate to my friend and
brother poot, I). J. Wood. You will'
obsorvo that tho verses do not dove
tail into each other as neatly as could
bo desired, but this is tho fault of my
inexperience. When I shall Imvo re
ceived tho poets' license, for which I
Imvo made application, I will do hotter.'

The Inebriated ion of old Peai fell In
To the Nemaha, and wai never. ecn any more j
Hut hit ghott ii lomctimci seen with a bottle

And ionic tandwltchci, bumming around the

Old Peas got mad and hit his hired man a snek
dolegcron the jaw.
Then the hired man went for old Peas with a
stick of wood,
Hut Peas laid him out with a brick, and then
they went to law. ,
And at last advices that's about how the matter
stood. A.V. W.
HOADLEY & EAINEY,
Thoiibovo named firm uio now in
Chicago purchasing tl o largest, most
varied and best selected stock of drugs,
medicines, perfumery, stationery, no
tions, etc., over opened in the city of
Hrownvllle. Jlesides their ample stock
of fresh, pure dings, they Intend to
make a specialty in tho attractiveness
and eleganc'u of their miscellaneous
stock, which will compriso every
branch anil variety of goods compatible
with such establishments. Mr. Painey
having had an experience of som'o
years in this branch of business, and
being adapted by naturo to the business;
'vill enable him to select a stock un'
surpassed in taste and elegance. II.
& H. wero fortunate in securing tho
Lowman bushiest) room to occupy with
their Immense stock. It being without,
doubt the most handsome, elaborately
finished and convenient store room in
tho county. It is on tho north side of
Main street, first door west of Alex.
Kobison's. When their now goods are
displayed in that room and properly
arranged by deft and practiced hands,
as they will be, the show will bo a bril
liant one. Wo do not over color, nor
over-estimate the talent of these young
gentlemen to do a good thing in tho
lino they Imvo adopted, both for them
selves, the city of Prownvillo, and tho
public, and wm do not doubt that, al
though they strike out against formid
able compotitition, they will meet with
the success which their energy, enter
prise and experience demand and
merit.
Tlio Jlrownvillo city election went
off very quietly so quietly that there
was but one ticket in tlio field. Tho
following nro tlio chosen ones to run
tho city govorumont for tlio ensuing .
year:
Mayor, W. W. Hackney.
Treasurer, O. A, Cecil.
Clerk, J,. U.Fort.
Police J udge. S. M. Itich. '
Councilman, 1st ward, F. E. John
son, Timothy McLaughlin.
Councilman 2d ward, J. If. Proady.
Councilman J!d word, Clms. Noid
hart, D. E. Douglas.
That is a good strong board of repre
sentative uiou, and acceptable to all
unless it bo radical tomporanco people.
Tho abovo named gentlemen aro all
anti-prohibition, except, perhaps, it be
Mr. Proady . Wo do not know Ins sen
timents on that subject.
Hi im i
Tho Nemaha bottoms, far as ono
could seo up and down, Sunday morn
ing, wero covorod with water. 'This
could only bo accounted for by tho
rain that fell Friday night, and which
tho dammed condition of the river, oc
casioned by mill dams and railroad
grades prevented from running off.
Tho star routo mulo express could not
cross, Monday, and returned toPrown
Villo where It went into winter quar
ters, Tlio P. &M. cars bring our mails
all right, however.
In writing up the proceedings of tho
lato district court at Prownvillo, wo
neglected to niontlon th curious fact
Unit ono of tho grand jurors was not
yet twonty-ono years of ago,
