The inter-state commerce law
contained a provision prohibiting
pooling. If this meant anything
it meant that the railroad companies
must not combine to put up rates.
Yet under the name of ''Weighing
Bureaus" and "Associations" the
old pool commissioner with a new
official name is given power to put
up rates, and put down competition
far beyond any power passed by the
commissioner in the pool times.

The murder of Kenedy, a Wash
ington attorney, by an insane man,
again calls attention to the fact
that Washington is most prolific
with cranks, and that, with un
pleasant frequency, the crankishness
takes the form of murder. From
the time of Lincoln down not a
E resident has occupied the white
ouse, but that attempts have been
made on his life, and in two cases
successful attempts. Yet a number
of men can be found who are will
ing to take the chances of assasina
tion. An old negro who was preparing
to remove his household chattels,
und who desired, as the representa
tive of a certain class or negroes
always doe5?, to create the impres
sion that he possessed valuable
goods, looked slyly at several ac
quaintances, and then calling one
of his children, said: "Tell yer
mudder not ter fill my pussonal
trunk wid dat silverw'ar. De Lawd
knows I doan want dem railroad
folks ter be chargin1 me wid extra
baggage." Arkansaw Traveler.

Dr. H. Pereira Mendes, one of
the best known Hebrew rabbis in
this country, puts a great truth
tersely and well when he says:
"Humanity is not religionized if
women need escort of a night." He
might have added, a city is not civ
ilized so long as women without an
escort must go hungry in its streets
of a night, as a woman novelist,
whose name is known over this
country and Europe, has done in
New York within a fortnight, be

could provide herself with a male
acquaintance, would serve her a

The Mormons in Utah are very
desirous of having the territory ad
mitted into the Union as a state,
but as the movement in this direc
tion is opposed by both the demo
cratic and republican committees,
the plans of the saints cannot be
carried out. Utah has the requisite
number of inhabitants, but as a
majority of the people are in f avor
ingofa theocratic, rather than a
republican form of government, it
is best tor Uncle bam to keep them
immediately under his thumb, until
his Morman subjects have become
somewhat Americanized.

"Gintlemin," exclaimed au

Carlyle refers to Dickens as an
actor, having seen him in one of
his amateur performances. He
gave it as his opinion that Dicken's
genius was essentially histrionic
and mimetic; that with his faculty
of keen and minute observation,
his general alertness of mind and
body, his mobile power of expres
sion, he had all the requisites of a
successful actor, and that had he
lived at a great period of the drama,
in the Elizabethan age for instance,
his genius would have found its
appropriate outlet on the stage. He
would have become a popular
comic actor, writing a humorous
piece now and then, perhaps as was
the custom of such actors in those
days. But while living under dif
ferent conditions and working with
his pen, his books still retained and
revealed the native genius of their
author. They had the sustained,
if rather jerky liveliness, the pleas
ant tricks and mannerisms of a
the
1m.-.-. 1 L..,.n rninn
stage. He was, in short, a born
uuLor. wunenaeum.
A report just prepared by Rev
enue Collector Calhoun of this state
for transmission to Washington
shows that there were 2,534,920
gallons of distilled spirits made in
district of Nebraska in the last year
and 2,280,512 gallons sold. This
includes whiskey, rum and alcohol
and is only the output of two dis
trilleries the Willow Springs of
Omaha and the Nebraska City dis
tillery. STARTLING BUT TRUE.
Wills Poikt, Texas, Dec. 1, 1885.
After suffering for more than three
years with disease of the throat and lungs,
1 got so low last spring 1 was entirely un
able to do anything, and my cough was so
bad I scarcely slept any "at night. My
druggist, Mr. II. F. Goodnight, sent me a

using six 1 bottles I was entirely cured.

Ouray offers to the refined and

have drives lovely beyond discrip

In a gathering recently of five or
six men, most of whom are at least
reported to be wealthy, doubt was
expressed by each one it there is a
man in New York who could draw
his check for 1,000,000 and have
it honored in actual cash. One of
the group, a prominent financier,
said: ktT know or an insbance not
long since which is a fair illustra
tion of these million-dollar checks.
A London man had a business trans
action in Avhich a payment was to
be made to him of 68,000. For
business reasons he did not wish the
checks to be passed as in ordinary
business transactions. A. check had
been given him on Mills, Glynn,
Curne & Co., who are the recogn
ized outside bankers of the Bank
of England. He went to them and
demanded the cash for the check.
They had not so much money on
hand and were obliged to ask him
to wait until they could go to the
Bank of England and procure it.
When he had secured the cash he
went to the other bankers to make
a deposit. The. second house re
fused to accept the moner on depo
sit until he had explained to them
in the fullest manner where he got
it. They had never had so large a
deposit made in cash at one time.
They would not accept it without
knowing where it came from, and
looked upon him with suspicion for
having so much cash in his posses
sion until he had explained the cir
cumstances of his business. Of
course the Bank of England had
money enough to meet such a cheek
or a much larger one, the same as
the United States Treasury would
be able to meet a great demand.
But the fact that G8,000 should be
a stumper for two of the biggest
banking establishments of London
indicates how small a part actual
cash pkvys in the business transac
tions of the day." New York

Piles.
Piles are frequently preceded by a
sense of weight in the back, loins and
lower part of the abdomen, causing the
patient to suppose he has some affection
of the kidneys or neighboring organs. At
times, symptoms of indigestion are
present, flatulency, uneasiness of the
stomach, etc. A moisture like perspira
tion, producing a very disagreeable
itching, after getting warm, is a common
attendant. Blind, bleeding and itching
piles yield at once to the application of
Dr. Bosanko's Pile Remedy, which acts
directly upon the parts affected, absorbing
the tumors, allaying the intense itching,
and affecting a permanent cure. Price
fifty cents. Address the Dr. Bosanko
