One of tho noticeable movements of
tho day especially in tho west nnd
south is tho prohibition question
Prohibition is making powerful strides
in America In Europe some awaking
is felt The diet of Finland Rusaia
recently unanimously adopted without
roll call a bill prohibiting the manu
factuio of alcohol in Finland
The railroad rate question is going to
figure prominently beforo Congress next
winter in view of tho action of tho Na
tional Association of State Kailway
Commissioners at their recent conven
tion held in Washington Thore will
bo no general attempt to amond tho
Hepburn law but an amendment will
bo proposed along the lines suggested
by tho Commissioners making it unlaw
ful for a railroad to enforce a new rate
until that rate shall havo been declared
by the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion to bo reasonable And it is highly
probable that tho Nebraska congressional
delegation will bo in line for tho pro
posed amendment which purpoes giv
ing shippers a hearing before interstate
rates can bo chaDgcd and in that mea
sure at least give shippers a voice in fix
ing rates

The Red Willow County Teachers
Association held its first meeting for
this school year at Danbury on Satur

terest manifested in the general discuss
ion of each subject on the program was
flattering indeed to all who have at heart
the educational interests of the county
The attendance of the patrons of the
Danbury schools and of the adjoining
school districts rounded out the number
who all but filled the Congregational
church
Tho program as given below was
carried out in full with the exception of
one forenoon subject and every number
was pronounced good by all present
The recitation given by Becca Daffer
the second prize winner in the South
West Nebraska declamatory contest and
the one by Lizzie Eifert who represent
ed the rural school in tho same contest
were given that teachers might be in
terested in the subject of public speak

Most men wno mingle with great
crowds or participate in an event of
many features are absolutely unable to
describe in detail any one particular
feature It is then that they find their
weekly newspaper most valuable Just
so it is with tho readers of daily news
papers they have not the time or the
inclination to follow every phase of the
weeks events and so turn to a weekly
newspaper for a concise and connected
account of any event of more than local
interest This demand is easily sup
plied at small cost by The Weekly

Past Salaries of Actors
A number of autograph letters of
Edmund Kean supply some interesting
information about the salaries of actors
early in the nineteenth century One
relates to an offer by Mr Ellison offer
ing Kean 3 a week as acting man
ager of the new theater In Wych
street Later this rose to 25 a month
In 1S2G Kean was offered 12000 a
year to go to America In the prime
of his popularity he received 200 for
a week in Edinburgh and apparently
reached the highest point when Mr
Bunn wrote from the Theater Royal
Dublin on Feb S 1S20 and offered
him 50 a night to play in Dublin and
Cork Liverpool Mercury
Homo Influences
Each one of us is bound to make the
little circle in which he lives better
and happier each one of us is bound
to see that out of that small circle the
widest good may flow each of us may
have fixed in his mind the thought
that out of a single household may
flow influences which shall stimulate
the whole commonwealth and the
whole civilized world Dean Stanley

He Knew Her
Tho conductor looked at
man
Do you see that stout woman at tho
other end of the car the one with the
monkey hut he asked
I think I see the one you mean the
thin man responded
There shes looking this way said
the conductor Well sir I admire
that woman
You do
Yes I do She may have a squint
and wear bad fitting clothes and big
shoes yet I admire her
Why
She knows how to get off n car the
right way and thats why Shes too
stout and her hair Is ratty and she
hasnt any taste but when she steps
down from the back platform I never
worry I know shell land all right
Im dead sure she isnt going to sit
down in tho mud nnd ask me for my
number Thats why I admire her
Here she comes now Watch her when
she gets off
The stout woman came down the
aisle and briskly descended to the
street And the conductor with his
hand on the bell rope winked approv
ingly at the slim man
Then the stout woman looked around
Come George she called nnd the
slim man meekly followed her Cleve

The Simple Minded Kurds
Some of the peculiar traits of the
Kurds of Asia Minor are described by
a traveler If it were possible to im
agine two colors more distinct than
black and white it would be possible
to imagine two characters more wide
ly differing than those of the Arab and
Kurd The pure Kurd is the most un
sophisticated and gullible person in
the world so long as you keep away
from the material issues H1j respect
for a man who can read and write is
almost pitiable The Kurds are on the
whole blunt and somewhat uncouth
silent nnd quite incapable of false
hood If they do wrong and they of
ten do they admit the fault in tho
simplest and most unaffected way I
had a muleteer who was honest civil
and incorrigibly idle Did you ever
kill a man I asked him one day
Yes sixteen on the Khazat road
when I was a deserter from the army
came the reply iu a voice absolutely
unmoved You were a robber Yes
but now praise be to God I am mar
ried and a muleteer

the late
Earl of Duumore
Lord Dunmore he said was a
good man Tall and robust and sup
ple I can see him still with his short
gray beard and his kind face His only
fault a fault due to his aristocratic
upbringing no doubt was the exag
gerated value that he set upon correct
ness lie insisted in correctness in eat
ing in dress in everything
At a dinner in Beacon street once I
heard him tell a story about an incor
rect self made man or nouveau riche
as he ccd him This man was dress
ing one night to go out His wife bus
tled into the room before he started to
look him over
But George she said reproach

Proof of Brains
Mr Travers the famous New York
wit once met at dinner a pompous
Englishman who was doing the
States He had letters a plenty attest
ing his importance letters from Glad
stone Dilke Salisbury and Churchill
He had talked everybody tired before
the dinner began and Travers saw
visions of a bad meal when he dis
covered the Englishman to be his
neighbor at the table There was nev
er a stop in the fellows tongue When
the oysters were brought on he be
gan Now it is a question as to
whether or not the oyster has brains
Scientists dispute the idea
certainly have some retorted Travers
Your proof sir challenged the Brit
