The railroads have been greatly
abused as soulless corporations that
were grinding the life blood out of the
people. The great Galveston disaster
has , however , reveale-d the fact that
the managers of these corporations
have hearts which are susceptible of
being touched by the cries of distress.
Their trains were placed at the dis
posal of all those engaged in relief
work on the coast. Provisions and
supplies were carried forward free of
charge , committees from every sec
tion of the state were furnished trans
portation , and when the refugees from
Galveston began to pour into Houston
and it became a serious question what
was to be done with them the-railroads
solved the problem by furnishing
transportation without charge to all
who wished to leave and to any point
they wished to go. Grand Master An
derson informs us that -but for this
fact Houston would have been overrun
with people who had to 'be cared for ,
and that suffering and distress would
have been largely increased as well as
the cost of meeting conditions which
would have prevailed. Bro. Anderson
desires us , through these columns , to
thank the different roads for the great
service rendered his committee at
Houston. If it were possible we would
be glad to see parallel columns , in one
of which should appear the acts of
these railroad corporations in a time
of great calamity and distress , and in
the other the amount contributed by
the little two-by-four demagogues who
are always trying to array the preju
dices of the masses against any and
every kind of enterprise. 'From the
Texas Odd Fellow.
that dreadful fiend that threatens the
life of rich and poor , can attack and

whose liver is dead , whose bowels

of appendicitis.

SOUTH OMAHA.
tinlon Stock Yards Cattle There was
a jjouU oupply of cattle , which fjavo
buyer * nn oportunlty to pound prices
down a trlllc on such grades aa they did
not linacn to want. The better crades
of beef stccrn held about steady , though
the market was not particularly active ,
riio common to fair cattle , however ,
were very slow sale and bids were ROII-
erally a little lower. The cow market
was in rather unsatisfactory condition
today. Buyers started out from the lirat
to get their supplies at a lower flgure
and they would not buy unless they could
set what they wanted for ICES money
than they paid yesterday. Some of the
choicest bunches of heifers may not ha\'e
been much , if any , lower , but aside from
a f < rw prize bunches the market was Very
slow and lower. Bulls were also a little
weak today and the same , was true of
flags , but calves did not show much of
anv change. The stocker and feeder
trade held good and firm , the better
grades being picked up In good season
ut strong prices. There is ample de
mand at the present time for all the
stock cattle of good quality and weight
that are being received and as a result
tlie prices paid arc very satisfactory.
Hogs There was another fairly liberal
supply of hogs and , us all other points
reported a drop in values , the market
here oened up T&tglOc lower. The bulk
of the early sales went at $3.15 and $5.17 * .
the heavcywelghts bringing the higher
price. The hogs changed hands quite rap
idly at those prices and it soon be
came evident that packers all wanted a
good many hogs and as a result sellera
held their droves at strong prices. Pack
ers finally raised their hands and began
paying JG.17V& for the general run of
medium weights and ? 3.20 for the prime
heavy hogs.
Sheep There was a good liberal run of
sheep for the latter part of the week , but
the market was in fairly good shape.
Good handyweight stuff was about steady
with yesterday , but the heavy sheep
v/cre a little slow and lower. For the
week they may be called 10@13c lower ,
and in some "ases more. It is the lighter-
weight stuif that seems to bu In the best
demand and such kinds are not so much
lower for the week. Lambs held about
steady today. Colorado stuff sold as high
as $5.20 , which is only a trifle lower than
what the same kind was selling for the
first of the week.

HNE WEATHER ON THE RANGE.
Condltiou of IVoat Nebrnskii Cattle Could
Not lie Uetter.
GERING , Neb , Feb. 4. Up to the
present time , better conditions for cat
tle on the range could hardly have
been possible. Such an open winter at
this time in January is very unusual ,
yet it is fortunate that such is the
case this winter. The range was not
as good ns usual , owing to late rains ,
and the high price c-f hay has taken
hundreds of carloads out of the coun
ty. Cattle now , however , are in splen
did condition , and on account of the
mildness of the winter not so much
feeding has been done as is usual.
Very severe and long continued storms
wi'l have to occuv or cattle will go
out of the winter in the usually fine
condition. Time are more cattle in
the counly t > an ever before , as many
ranchnipn held on in preference to
selling last lull , when there was a
considerable slump in the market
prices , hence a shipment of considera
ble volume may be anticipated during
the season of L901 from the range sec
tion of the north Platte valley.
WINDSOR iS IN WAITING
Town Thronged With Visitors for Queen's
Funeral.
AvINDSOR , England , Feb. 2. The
ancient town of Windsor has under
gone a great transformation. Its us
ually quiet streets arc thronging with
visitors. The decorations and prepara
tions for the final scenes continue , but
perhaps the stiaugcst matter is the
large number of wreaths which con
tinue to arrive from all over the world.
These aie so numerous that the au
thorities are at a loss to Know how
to deal with them and again it has
been necessary to exclude the public
from the cloisters , which are already
overflowing.
Final arrangements have been made
at St. George's Chapel Royal. The pur
ple-covered bier stands awaiting its
royal burden. Four shields adorn its
sides , each with a golden monogram ,
"V. R. T. "
At Frogmore the cover of the great
stone sarcophagus has been rolled
away. When the queen's body Is laid
beside that of the prince consort the
stone will be replaced and finally
sealed , a marble figure being placed
above it.
It is expected that some 1,550 persons
will be present at the ceremony in St.
George's chapel , although only a portion
tion will be able to witness the cere
mony. The little Prince Edward of
Cornwall and York and Princess Eliza
beth of Hesse arrived at Windsor cas-
ue this afternoon.
President McKinley's and Mrs. Gar-
field's wreaths came today.
Great precautions are being taken to
have ambulances in reauiness in the
event of a crush of people.

LONDON , Feb. 2. A telegram to

from Cairo says severe fighting is re
ported in Abyssinia. The number en
gaged is said to be 7,000. The for
eign office officials know nothing of
any difficulty in King Mene'ik's terri
tory , but it is not unlikely , they
think , that certain malcontent chiefs
may have taken advantage of King
Menelik's absence from the capital to
foment an-insurrection. J

THE NERVES OF WOMEH
" I am so nervous and wretched. " "I feel as if I should
fly. " How familiar these expressions are ! Little things
annoy you and make you irritable. You can't sleep , you are
unfit for ordinary duties , and are subject to dizziness.
That bearing-down sensation helps to make you feel
miserable.
You have backache and pains low down in the side , pain
in top of head , later on at the base of the brain.
Such a condition points unerringly to serious uterine
trouble.
If you had written to Mrs. Pinkham when you first ex
perienced impaired vitality , you would have been spared
these hours of awful suffering.
Happiness wiU be gone out of your life forever , my sister ,
unless you act promptly. Procure JJydia E. Pinkluun's
Vegetable Compound at once. It is absolutely sure to
help you. Then write to Mrs. Pinkham , at Lynn , Mass. , if
there is anything about your case you do not understand.
You need not be afraid to tell her the things you could
not explain to the doctor your letter is seen only by women
and is absolutely confidential. Mrs. Pinkham's vast experi
ence with such troubles enables her to tell you just what is
best for you , and she will charge you nothing for her advice.
Mrs. Valentine Tells of Happy Results Accomplished by
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. i !
" DEAR MRS. PINKHAH : It is with pleasure that
I add my testimony to your list , hoping it may induce
others to avail themselves of the benefit of your val
uable remedy. Before taking Jjydia E. Pink-
ham's Vegetable Compound , I felt very bad ,
was terribly nervous and tired , had sick headaches ,
no appetite , gnawing pain in stomach , pain in my
back and right side S.EH. so weak I could scarcely
stand. I was not able to do anything. Had sharp
pains all through my body. Before I had taken half
a bottle of your medicine , I found myself improv
ing. I continued its use until I had taken four
bottles , and felt so well that I did not need to
take any more. I am like a new person , and your
medicine shall always have my praise. " MRS. W.

It is delicious and nourishing , and takes the
