Omaha Telegram: An Iowa baby

but ho wasn't a"rock-a-bye baby" by a
long shot. Ho is three and a half
years old and weighs 133 poun is. His

Creek in Culbertson county, was
killed by a Uroncho pony, lie was
picketing the animal out when it be
came frightened and ran away; the
boy became entangled in tho rope and
was dragged eighty rods and so in
jured that he c'ied in an hour. .
Fremont Tribune: I-. D. Richards,
who lias just returned from a trip
through the section of Dakota that
suffered so much from the overflows
last spring says that a person who has
not visited the country can hardly
conceive of the amount of damage and
desolation occasioned by the high wat
ers. On a short trip of a few miles
Mr. Kichards counted upwards of
thirty unoccupied dwellings that had
been unroofed, upset, and otherwise
damaged.
Beatrice Express: Saturday wit
nessed the completion of the work
that Beatrice has been watching with
interest for nearly two years, viz: the
completion of the 15. & M. line that is
to give us direct communication with
the IieDuhlican Valley, and enable us
to go cast without change of cars. En
gine 03. without any cars, came
through yesterday from Culbertson,
the present terminus, and is the first
engine to pass over the new line.
Tecuruseh Chieftain : J. W. Barnes,
Esq.. on his return from Arizona
stopped in Tecumseh a few days ago,
to visit friends. Capt. 1'resson in
forms us that he reports the Flatts-
inouth Company, who are mining in
Arizona, as having one million of dol
lars worth of ore on the dump. It has
always been asserted by old miners
that Arizona was the Eldorado for
miners, but until recently the fear of
Indians has prevented much prospect
ing. Mr. Barnes left for his home in
Flattsmouth, on Tuesday.
A very interesting account was
liven bv Mrs. Bloomer of the first
woman-suffrage effort made in Neb
raska. It is not generally known that
Mrs. Amelia Bloomer (after whom
the Bloomer costume is named), of
Council Bluffs, Iowa, was invited by
tho Territorial Legislature of Neb
raska, 1S53, to address them on the
subject of Woman Suffrage. As the
result of her addresses, a bill for this
passed the House and came to its
third reading in the Council and was
only lost iTecause it was not reached,
owing to tne fact that some members
talked to kill time to prevent the
passage of a bill for removing the
Capitol. Mrs. Bloomer read passages
from letters and papers to support her
statement that but for this delay, Ne
braska would have had Woman suff
rage in her first constitution.

DEAN STANLEY.
His Death in London Yesterday A
sketch of His Life.
Arthur Fenrhyn Stanley ; died in
London, yesterday. He was a son of
Dr. Stanley, the Bishop of Norwich,
and was born iaAlderley, Cheshire,
in 1S15. He was educated at ltugby,
under Dr. Arnold, during that period
made familiar to all by the story of
the adventures of Tom Brown. At
Oxford, afterward, he distinguished
himself by his scholarship, and gradu
ated in ISiiS at the Uuiversity College.
He remained there for twelve years
afterward as a tutor. During his uni
versity course he took the Newdigate
prize for an English poem, "The Gip
sies," gained the Irish scholarship. tok
the Latin essay prize in 1839 and in
the year following won both the En
glish essay and the theological prizes.
He was select preacher in 1843, and in
1831 was made Canon of Canterbury.
He was successively regius professor
of ecclesiastical history at Oxford.
Canon of Christ Church,, and chaplain
to the Bishop of London, until IStJI,
when he was made Dean of Westmin
ster. He was a leader of the broad
church party. His "Life of Dr. Ar
nold," published in 1844, was his first
literary work to make him widely
known. He also published "Sermons
and Essays on the Apostolical Age"
"Memoirs of Bishop Stanley," Histori
cal Memorials of Canteibury," Ser
mons on the Unity of Evangelical and
Apostolical Teaching," as well as a
large number of other sermons and
lectures. He has also contributed
many articles to the reviews and mag

versity of St. Andrews' in 1874. X. Y.

Girardin and His Wife.
Emile do Girardin, it is well known,
lived on the most unfriendly terms
with his second wife. The house was
large enough to permit them to dwell
entirely separate from one another.
One day Mine, de Girardin had an im
portant communication to mako to her
husband. Taking a small sheet of pa
per site wrote: "Tho Boudoir to tho
Library. Would like to go to Switzer
land.'" M. do Girardin, imitating her
eoneiso style, ivjonl-.vl: "The Library
to tuo Boudoir. Go." That was all.
The Fatal Hot Ware. -:
Cincinnati, July 17. Appalling as
was tho number of prostrations from
tho heat during the past week, as re
ported in the daily press, tho official
returns show that the story of suffer
ing is but half told. The press re
ports made the number of fatal cases
about 40 each day; this number is
more than doubled by the official re
turns, which show that in six days
there were 500 fatal cases. To this
number should be added a large num
ber of other deaths which are credited
to old ago and various other diseases,
but are really due to the excessive
heat. Such a death rate is without
a parallel in the history of the city.
The deadly heat came without warn
ing and did its work with a merciless
swiftness that tho most fatal epi
demics have rarely equaled. Men were
stricken and died while being carried
to their homes. Others fell in the
streets or at their places of business,
and were dead before intelligent as
sistance could be rendered them. Bolts
of avengeful lightuing could hardly
have dene their work quicker. I torn
the first warning to the last coming
breath the victim was conscious only
of suffering, and night brought almost
no relief. People died in their beds
who retired in the best of health and
the hospital ambulances were kept
running until the fiery rage of another
sun broke over the city. Many of
those whose circumstances would per
mit fled to the north, but this number
was small compared to what it would
have been had the fearful mortality
been known at the time. People be
came gravely apprehensive, but it is
only now that tho official report of
deaths has been given that they real
ize the fiery ordeal through which
they have passed. It is remembered,
too, that many hundreds were severely
stricken who escaped death, but will
henseforth be particularly sensitive
to excessive heat, and are prepared for
that most obstinate disease, brain
trouble. The weather is cool and re
frejiing to-day and the congratula
tions which are heard on every hand,
Are earnest and reverent,
The recent popular expression of
opinion on the patronage system has
shown that Mr. Albert Stickney did
not anticipate public sentiment in
naming his series ot raper.s in benu
ner on civil service evils, "t'lie f'e-
ple's Problem," It remains to be seen
with how much favor the people, who
now no longer need tho urcunient of
his first paper (which was to show
how the spoils system works practical
disfranchisement.) will regard the
scheme which he suggests by way of
permanent reform. It is not enough
he thinks, that tenure of office shall
be made secure; the system of repre
sentative elections must be remodeled.
Mr. Stickney pfits forward his Sugges
tions modestly, but with earnest woju
victjon that they are in the right di
rection. The third and concluding
paper will show how this plausible
system can be practically put into op
eration. It is a comprehensive and
lawyer-like series of papers, worth tho
close reading of every voter, however
one may differ with the writer as to
the details.
During the session at Albany, yes
terday, Senator Tuthill took occasion
to define his position relative to the
struggle over U. S. Senator in very
plain language: "In the course of his
speech he referred to CoLkling's letter
of acceptance and said it would bo
read when the vile traducers of the
illtstrious senator were dead and for
gotten, lie continued as follows: If
the United States senate re to-day
called together it would be democratic.
It would have been on the day Senator
Blaine resigned. So it would have
been when Windom resigned, so it
would have been when Senator Kirk
wood resigned, and so it would have
been when Senator Garfield declined.
But no faction of the republican legis
lators of Maine, Minnesota, Iowa and
Ohio undertook to overthrow the time
honored usage of all parties in tha
usual decent and orderly way by which
individual preferences were submitted
to the arbitration tf caucus and har
mony of choice promptly insured. So
it should have been here.
One hour of common fairness and
honest methods would have saved us
three weeks of contention and the
state the disgrace of painful and
damning disclosures, when a vigilant
and unprincipled lobby, by the black
art of bribery, had taken the field.
Thousands of dollars were traced
from banks to pockets of their co-laborers
with all the attendant suspi
cious circumstances. It was time to
adjourn when the grand jury, on am
ple testimony, had agreed with the in
vestigation, in. its painful duty by in
dicting half a dozen of the ring lead-
era in this unholy crusade for offenses
punishable by imprisonment in the
state prison. It was time to call a
halt; it was time to adjourn when a
certain candidrte while yet holding a
majority vote of the republican, was
so smirched with bribery as to render
its support impossible. When the
trick of an irregular caucus with the
secret purpose of his withdrawal
was played, it was time to adjourn.
When certain participants therein had
become so low and degraded as to be
willing to allow themselves to b used
as a step ladder by sneaks and transom
peeping piruis, in order to give the
color of truth and currency to a weak
invention and base slander against an
honest citizen it is time to adjourn.
This infamy was never surpassed ex
cept perhaps by those who pledged
their word and bartered it at Chicago,
only that they might wreak their
spite on the most illustrious soldier
of the century, whose only fault it
was and is that he possessed that in
tense that intrepid valor which ena
bled him in the dark days of supreme
trial to bo the savior of his country,
why not adjourn ?
Can you not truat your governor to
call you together, after reason shall
have resumed its sway? When did
you learn that you could not trust lios
coe Conkliug to go to the people? were
you afraid to trust him before the peo
ple of Indiana and Ohio? Every repub
lican heart yearned for much needed
victory, when it was confessed that
the electoral vote of New York was
absolutely essential to the election of
Garfield, were you afraid to give the
Mag into his keeping? I insist that the
responsibility of this long continued
farce shall be placed where it properly
belongs.

GOOD COMPANY,

! Treventing Sunstrokes.
The following hints for the preven
tion of sunstroke are given by Dr. Ed
ward C. Mann of St. Louis, in an ar
ticle upon this subject in one of the
medical journals: "To avoid sun
stroke, exercise iu extremely hot
weather should be very moderate; the
clothes should be thin and loose, and
an abundance of cold water should . be
drank. Workmen and soldiers should
understand that as soon as they cease
to perspire, while working or march
ing in the hot sun, they aro in danger
of sunstroke, and they should irn
ediately drink. Laborers or soldiers,
and others who adopt this measure.
washing their hands and faces as well
as drinking copiously of water every
tune they come within reach of it, will
geneially eujow perfect immunity
from sunstroke. Straw hats should
bo worn, ventilated at the top, and tho
crown of the hat filled with green
leaves or a wet sponge. It is better to
wear thin flannel shirts, in order not
to check perspiration. We may expose
ourselves for a long time in the hot
sun, and work and sleep in a heatev
room, and enjoy perfect immunity
from sunstroke if we keep our skin
and clothing wet with water.
Does Farming i'ajf
Some interesting conclusiens are
drawn from the carefully kept account
books of a New York farmer which
ought to aid in disposing of that vexed
and venerable inquiry "Does Farm
iug Pay V" There was to begin with a
$10,000 farm and $1,132 of tools, a to
tal investment of 311,133. For the
first ten years (1831 to 1841) tho aver
age net annual income was 1,150; for
the second ten, about the same; fer the
third ten, 81,320 per year; for the
fourth ten, 2.230 per year; for the
fifth ten (1371 to 1881, covering the
period of the hard times) $3,201 per
year. During all this time the farm
has been ste;;dily Jittered, and the
financial results have improved in prq
portion. In the last twenty years the
net annual income has been 10 per
cent, on S22,60S.o3, which would now
).e considered a full valuation of the
land, stack and implements. This
very satisfactory showing was achiev
ed, not by the raising of aiiv fcpecial
crops whatsoever, but by mixed hus
bandry ; and not under any particularly
lortunate circumstances none more
feriifH:?t than the farmers 111 the
State of New Vei'k H-ally enjoy." We
read further that "nine-tenths of tjii
capital used, and now invested has
coiuo pjt pf lie profits, and the results
have been attained 'iyithp'fft excessive
labor, or unbecoming frugality, tfr
neglect of the duties and enjoyments
of social life." Prairie Farmer.
A Desirable Reform.
Is. Y. Sun.
They have a law in California which
prohibit public officials from accept
ing free passes over any railroad, un
der penalty of forfeiture of their posi
tions. This provision was absurdly
construed in the case of Mayor Kall
och, ft'ho, bejng proved to have receiv
ed street car passea in the city of San
Francisco, was nevertheless acquitted,
on the ground that he accepted them
is his capacity ng a citizen and not as
Mayor. On the same principle a Jude
who takes a bribe might be acquitted,
provided he does not receive it while
sitting in court.
It is no argument, however, against
the excellence f this provision that it
has received such an irrational con
struction. A law like this, strictly
construed and rigorously enforced,
would be useful in every State j;; the
Union. Everywhere we find railroad
officials buying the favor of men in
public posts by giving them the privil
ege .of free conveyance over their lines.
From the tiighfu' prosecuting officers
und legislators downj all the so-called
representatives of the people, except
the few who reject the bribe, are thus
subsidized.
We have a Legislature, now in ses
sion at Albany, that has illustrated in
a signal manner the value of the free
pass system. This Legislature has
earned distinction in many ways, and
one or. tne cmet or tneae must te con
ceded to be the investigation of charges
of bribery against the New York Cen
tral Uailroad Company, in which every
member of tho committee appointed
to judge of the evidence, not excluding
Mr. Irastus Brooks, had in his peeked
at the time a bribe iu shape of a pass
over the lines of the accused corpora
tion. There are pi obably not ten men in
the Legislature who have had honor
or selfrenetft enough to refuse to trav
el as deadheads over the railroads of
this fcjtate. When weekly adjourn
ment takes place, and our legislators
leave Albany in car loads, the con
ductors hardly stop to look for tickets.
They take it for granted that none in
those crowd pay their way. We see
the result of all this in the unblush
ing way in which the Xew York Cen
tral carries its purposes at Albany, ex
cept when a sudden and overwhelming
cutburst of public opinion compels it
to retire temporarily from the stage.
We need look no further for illustra
tions than to the reports of the Bribery
Investigating Committer, lie repeated
delays and postponements in the par
age of the Hailroad Commission bill,
and tha persistency with which Mr.
Chauncey M. liepy.y was retained as a
Senatorial candidate arte- t;p bribery
exposures.
It cannot be said that the acceptance
of free passes is a trifling matter. In
the first place, it betrays an utter fail
ure to appreciate the duties and the
position of a legislator, who may at any
time be required to pass upcu ques
tions affecting the railway corpora
tions. Such a failure alone suffices to
prove unfitness for that high office. In
the second pla.ee, even viewed as a
question of money, the railroads might
just as well give money bribesof tvp .or
three hunderd dollars, as free passe
for a session of the Legislature.
To get a full understanding of thia
question, we need only ask why it is
that the railroads distribute their
passes. Let this question be answer
ed. Why does ever' newcomer in he
chambers of the Legislature, previous
ly perhaps wholly ui.Ic:vyn, and inca
pable of procuring a free ticket tyen
by the most abject solicitation, now
find one at his service? If it be given
through f.ear. it is extortion and black
mail to accept it." Jf through the hope
of obtaining favors, it is 1 livery.
The sooner it be made a misde
meanor, punishable by forfeiture of
office and incapacity to hold any pub
lic position of trust or profit, for any
official in the service of the people to
accept free railroad passes, tie better
will it be for the character and dignity
of our Legislature and for the welfare
of the State.
Tli? report on color-blindness recent
ly presented to tjie English Oplithalmo
logical society on moio than eighteen
thousand persons suffering from it win
hare been examined contains many cu
rious nd suggestive facts. For in
stance, color-bliud men are nearly 5
per cent, of the male population, while
the percentage among women is hardly
per cent. Another result of the inves
tigation is that there is an unusually
large proportion of color-blind persons
among tho society of Fronds.
