copy was ready for sale, It Is a volutno of
1,462 pages, containing 05,000 entries of Im
portant historical events. Tho nrrangement
of this vast material Is a quick reference
plan never beforo devised for any book.
Thcro Is a threefold classification: First,
tho classification by countries, or by geo
graphical location. Second, tho classifica
tion by dates. Third, tho classification ac
cording to tho nature of tho event Itsolf.
This threefold classification, It will be noted,
answers tho threefold question which ono
must ask concerning any event: (1) Where?
(2) When? (3) What? Tho classification by
countries Is In alphabetical order. On the
first pago comes Abyssinia, on tho last page
tho west coast of Africa, llctwcen these np
rear all tho countries of tho earth (seventy
ntno In numbor) of which thero aro any
historical records. Thu facts pertaining to
nny country aro then classified according to
date. Thuo each pair of facing pages In
cludcn tho events pertaining to a particular
segment ot time. For Instance, pages 10
nnd 17 contain tho facts of American history
-irrtalnlng to tho period between December
17, 1500 and tho year 1518. At the top of
each pago tho dato for that pago Is Indi
cated In black faco typo In tho corner and
tho name of tho country In black faco type
in tho center, as a running title. After the
classification by country and by date tho
facta aro again classified according to their
nature. That Is to say, tho events pertain
ing to America In tho period between De
cember 17, 1500, and tho year 1518, all of
'which aro found on the pair of pages If! and
17, are there arranged under nlno divisions,
namely: (I) Army, Navy; (2) Art, Science,
Nature; (3) Births, Deaths; (4) Church; (5)
Discovery, Exploration; (C) Letters; (7) So
ciety; (8) State; ('J) Miscellaneous. It ono
desires to locato a particular event In his
tory, but does not know tho dato and wishes
to ascertain it ho can turn to tho Index of
ino pages containing 125,000 entries, In which
nil tho oventu nnd names recorded In the
book aro again entered, this tlmu In alpha
betical order and on tho topical plan. The
Koncral arrangement of tho volume, as well
as Its contents, appears to bo a decided Im
provement over anything that has gone be
fore. It cannot fall to bo a very valuablo
addition to the labor-saving tools of tho lit
erary worker. To tho ordinary reader, as
well as to all persons engaged In important
lines of business, the work will bo invalua

Tho work of Darwin on the derivation of

Tho author reviews tho early development
of tho colonics nnd tho beginnings of tho
nation and traces tho commercial and in
dustrial growth, at tho eamo tlmo pointing
nut threatening dangers. He points out the
evils of politics, considers the multiplica
tion of trusts, devotes somo space to the
Judiciary and the press as restraining Inllu
fhec's'' In" tho writer's opinion the greatest
ilangcr threatening the nation Is the sup
pression of Individualism. He says: "Hy
this our country was founded; by this it has
become tho foremost nation of tho world."
The author has evidently given much thought
to tho great questions of which he writes

Itcv. W. II. Fltchett Is an Australian
clergyman, who Is a thoroughgoing "(Ircater
Ilrlton" nnd upholder of tho Hrltlsh cause
-wherever he finds it. His latest and most
Important literary work Is a story of tho
great war from 1703 to 1815, which Is pub
lished under tho title "How England Havid
Europe." Mr. Fltchctt's former brokB, "Deeds
that Won tho Empire" und "Fights for tho
Flug," havo been widely popular, and since
his tendency to ovcrenthuslasra runs with
the main plan of his work Its faults seem
tow and Its excellences many
The fact that thcro was literally several
millions of signatures to tho protest against
Congressman-elect Jlobcrts to a seat In the
house as a representative of Utah shows
how keen an Interest there still Is on the
"Mormon question." "Tho Fate of Madanio
La Tour," Mrs. Paddock's remarkable novel,
Is not only literature, but statesmanship of
a high order. lAlrendy in Its tenth thousand,
this strange romnnco of thlnly-velled fact
depicts tho origin, Ideas, principles and
mothods of Mormon life from the Inside In
an alluring narrative, but with remorseless
accuracy. 'It must find a still larger public,
for it bears tho Impress of trustworthiness,
while It Is "thrilling enough to Interest tho
most exacting lover of fiction." It Is tho
story chiefly of 'tho fortunes and misfor
tunes of a single family, but at the samo
tlmo It traces tho development ot tho Mor
mon system In those distant Mormon val
leys. The author says: "I do not pretend
to tell tho worst of tho doings of tho Saints,
for no decent pen could describe, and no
decent reader would peruse, tho shocking
facts." Fords, Howard & Hulbert, New-

WASHINGTON, Feb. 21. Tho Investlga
tlon of tho mining troubles nnd tho conduct
of tho United States forces In Idaho last
summer continued today beforo tho house
committee on military affairs. Frederick C.
Kobertton resumed his narrative begun yes
terday, giving tho legal proceedings he
adopted In behalf ot tho imprisoned miners
and the difficulties ho claims to have en
countered from tho military authorities, stnte
officials and tho court. Ho said ho was ro
fused permission to be present nt tho Inquest
ot thoso killed during tho outbreak and was
unable to conrmunlcato with the accused
miners as to their rights, although repre
sentatives of thu mining company were pres
ent. Ho protested to the nttorncy general
that the miners were being denied the right
of couusel. Throughout these prococdlngs,
tho witness raid, tho military authorities
wero In control of affairs, and United Stntes
soldiers guarded the Imprisoned men, bring
ing them to and from the court.
Tho witness said Oeneral Merrlam was
In chargo of tho "bull pen." Theso were
improvised quarters, 83 no prison was
available and consisted of old buildings and
box cars surrounded by a wire fence. Robert
son expressed tho opinion that tho United
States forces should havo been used to pre
serve order and uphold the civil authorities,
but In fact, he declared, tbey superseded
the civil authorities and In somo Instnnccs,
which wero detailed, arrested men In no
way connected with tho outbreak. Ho said
thcro wero no warrants and nono
of tho usual forms ot law, but
when a man was wanted ho was
stopped on tho street and sent to tho "bull
pen." This was done by deputies, who
acted under the state officials and the mili
tary authorities. Tho witness will proceed
with his statement tomorrow.

The third day of tho trial ot Frank Dorr
In Judge Baker's court on tho chargo of

year, was devoid of special Incident. Tho
stato having rested Tuesday afternoon, cvl
denco for tho defenso Is In progress. Dorr's
countenance has brightened somowhnt since
the introduction of favorable testimony and
that careworn look which characterized
him In tho beginning has partially given
way to hope.
Walter Antrim was subjected to lengthy
examination. Ho sworo that ho heard tho
revelry at Derr's homo ou Christmas eve,
which led Derr to ask Flaherty and his
companions to keep quiet or got out ot tho
house. His testimony was favorable to
Derr to the extent ot showing that there
was more disturbance than Is usually per
mitted In a well-regulated home.
Hiram Cockrcll, well known In South
Omaha, where tho tragedy occurred, was
another of Derr s witnesses. Ho also told
of tho boisterous conduct alleged against
the dead man and tho others who wero with

A Red Letter Day
on the 22d of February,
W:
ASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY and it is
right nnd just that it is so. Since the day when Washington
first saw tho light what a number of red lottor days brighten
the calendar of tho years. Hundreds of inventions and dis
coveries now annihilate space, lighten toil, deaden pain and lengthen
life. Among the great discoveries of tho nineteenth century nono
stand out more prominent than that of Warner's Safe Cure, a vogelablo
preparation for tho curo of that terrible insidious disease Bright's
diseaso of tho kidneys. Tho disease way first named by Dr. Bright of
England. It had been known previous to his time as dropsy, and death
certificates were given, and aro given today, by reputoblu physicians,
for dropsy, heart disease, heart failure, convulsions, etc., instead of
Bright's diseaso.
Dropsy, heart failure, convulsions, etc,, are but
flpmptoms of Bright's disease, a diseaso beforo which physicians stand
aghast.
Bright's disease and consumption do not kill at once
There aro first, second and third stages. Tho time to treat these ter
rible diseases is at their inception. Bright's disease is consumption of
the kiduoys and no man or woman can live without kidneys any moro

The kidneys have few nerves of sensation, hence
Bright's disease cannot be detected except by its symptoms or a micro
scopical examination of the fluids of tho body. Prominent among tho
symptoms aro fickle appetite failure of eyesight, nervousness, frequent
desire to pass fluids, constipation, chronic rheumatic pains, gradual
failure of strength, pallor of faco, a welling of tho ankles, shortness of
breath, chills, fever, scanty, high colored fluids, etc. A person may
not havo all of the symptoms, but one of them continued for any length
of time is a warning that tho kiduoys aro not doing tho work nature
intended them to do and that the body through that failure is surely
becoming poisoned by tho deadly acids which ought to be eliminated.
Warner's Safe Cure is a specific for kidney disease
when taken in time and .according to directions. It will not work mir

It is the part of wisdom to get rid of kidney di
