"Poaches ought to bo flftv cents a bushel

Now Jersey , ho says , thousands of bushels
of ripe peaches are being fed to the hogs ,
because the raisers can't llnd a profitable

H A HI ) COAL FOH THE FAIR.
The crounds and buildings committee of
the "World'.1 : fair has agreed that anthracite
coal only shall boused on the grounds dur
ing the exposition. The decision is very im
portant , involving as it docs nn immense ex
penditure. The machinery plant of 34,000
horse power will consume an enormous
amount of fuel , and the decision in favor of
hard coal Is made to avoid damage to flno
iabric and the art exhibit , which would bo
ure to follow If soft coal were usod. It is
thought au arrangement can bo effected with
the roads running to the exposition by which
all the engines delivering passenger trains
will either use hard coal or bo llttod with
moke preventive devices.

whoso savage attack on Mrs. Elizabeth Me-

to which she has been subjected , has evoked
their deepest sympathy.
At the regular mooting of the Central

the pitiful fate of Mrs. McMahon and
reviaw the events that brought about
the present blank condition of her mind. It
Is possible the society can do nothing mow

in a court of justice , but many of the ladles
ro active members of societies , sach as the
Woman's club , tno Woman's Protective
agency , and other organizations that , adding
their inttuonco to the protest of the Woman's

Prof , Norton B. Smith opened his bono
training entertainment at the Omaha Guards
armory last night to a crowded houso.
Flvo vicious horses were treated for bad
habits , ono nftor another much to the amuse
ment of the crowd.
Four animals belonging to well known
Omaha levers of line horio llosu wore glvon a
course of Instruction la obedience and fully
conquered.
W. T. Seaman's thoroughbred was the last
ono brought out. This horse has made his
mark by killing n man and Is filled with all
the vlclousncss that the hot blooded
thoroughbred race horse Is capable of hold
ing. A stout harness was first placed on the
animal with a string of slclehbclls
dangling at his heels. And how ho did kick.
The Fifth Ward Kickers'club wasn't ' in It
at all alongside of His Highness.
The conquering of this Kentucky bred ani
mal was finally accomplished , after a long
struggle , and as a closing to the programme
ho was driven around the hall Iu a buggy and
behaved splendidly. Tin cans , steam whis
tles , papers and umbrellas were u. ed to
frighten the animals after they hud been con
quered , but without effect. Prof. Smith will
rldo a bucking broncho tonight , besides treat
ing several other vicious horses already on
his list.

mot with n painful and serious accident about
4 o'clock yesterday afternoon.
Honrichs was standing on the sldo ot his

other transfer wagon attempted to back up
to the sidewalk but the rear wheels did not
turn and backed against Honrichs. The body
of the wagon caught him about the waist and
squeezed him against his own vehicle. A
doctor was called nr.d the patient carried to

voyed the unfortunate man to his homo in

.Lincoln County All
NORTH PIATTE , Nob. , Sopt. 10. To tha
Editor of THE BEE : The sincerity nnd de
termination of the republicans of this city
was shown at the primaries Saturday where
"all hands 'round" Joined together in the
election of delegates to the county conven
tion to bo hold in this city next Saturday.
Men of all shades , the pros and the antis ,
the ins and the outs , Joined in to elect repre
sentative republicans. The delegates were
"instructed" that "tho best man in the
county , the district and the state must carry
the co'lors of the republican party this year. "
The trimmers' occupation is gone. The re
publicans of this county and district are con
fident , almost jubilant , over the situation.
It is , of cour o , difficult to forecast the
nominations , but it is certain that our pres
ent district judge , Hon. A. H. Church , will
receive a unanimous ro-nomlnatlon.
For sheriff the general sentiment seems to
point to the re-nomination of D. A. BaKor.
Mr. Baker is conceded to bo the best sheriff
Liucoln county has over had. Ho is popular
in the country at well as in the city.
For treasurer , the only name so far sug
gested Is J. L. McAllister.
For county clerk the convention will doubtless -
loss put in nomination J. A. Stoddard of
Wallace. A good man and true.
There seems to bo a general feeling that It
Is the part of wisdom that Reese should ro-
cclvo the republican nomination for associate
Justice of the supreme court. I am confident
that Lincoln county will instruct her dele
gates to the state convention to cast its vote
for him.
Put Lincoln countv in the republican col
umn for 1801. B. H.

Fifty children , ranging In ago from 0 to 14
years , presented the opera of "Tho Four
Leaved Clover" to a fair sized audience at
Washington ball last evening under the di
rection of Mrs. S. E. Ciappo. The attend
ance wai smaller than it would have been
but for an unfortunate announcement fixing
the data as Friday night and which , al
though afterward corrected , undoubtedly
loft nn erroneous impression in the minds of
many.
The presentation was exceedingly cred
itable to the youthful participants and their
painstaking , conscientious teacher nnd di
rector. It Is probable that the entertain
ment will bo repeated but the date has not
