There was a swish of fists in the air, two angry grunta, a sprinkling of blood from two damaged nasal ap pendages, a whirl of arms and legs, and the booth builders rolled over one an other in the mud.

Burt Seiger, hailing from St. Louis, was yesterday afternoon bunkoed out of $160 on a poker hand, and James Cary, Charles Kline aad Isaac Epstein were arrested on the charge of operating a confidence game. The four men were on an incoming Missouri Pacific train and were indulging in a quiet game of euchre for points. During the progress of the game Epstein remarked that he held a good poker hand. At this Seiger 6aid he also held a good poker hand, and proposed that tho game be turned from euchre to poker, which was accordingly done and the cigars bet. From cigars for the crowd the stakes grew to a box, and from a box of cigars to five dollars. Continuing at this rate, the neat bet of $160 all Seiger had was made and the turn called. Seiger held four kings and Nr. Epstein four aces. Kansas City Journal. A Pretty BIjr Fourteon-j ear-old. The youngest soldier in the British army, f nvate Demes, aged fourteen years and six months, is a fine child for his ago. He is close upon 5 feet inches in height, with a chest measure ment of 33 inches, and weighs 126 pounds. It is no wonder, therefore, that the military authorities should have enlisted him without a demur when he told them that ho was over eighteen. His father now seeks to have him discharged on account of his tender years; but the war office, not unreason ably, holds that the onus lies upon him to prove that his son is the lusus naturce he would make him out. In other words, the condition of his discharge ia the production of a certificate of age and very right. London Globe. Oaee Wealthy. A third of a century ago Bob Gridley of this place was probably the best known and one of the richest gamblers in the United States. He conducted a place for years before John Morrissey came to the front. Bob was character ized as an "honest gambler," a scarce article in the world of chance today, and it was a common saying that "Bob Gridley's word is good for $50,000." As the years thinned his locks and bent his form his luck changed and false friends assisted in depleting his exchequer. Step by step he descended the financial ladder, and his continued misfortune soured him to the pessimistic extent that he believed everybody was against him. Reverses drove him out of gambling and the speculating fraternity soon looked upon him as a "has been." With the small remnant of his fortune he established trout ponds and sought to obtain an honest livelihood. His wife died and his family became scattered. Two or three years ago he disposed of his ponds at a loss and established new ones a short distance north of the town. Adversity continued on his trail. The second investment cost him $11,000 and his last penny. In a few days a mort gage foreclosure will wipe even this out and leave him comparatively penniless, friendless and abandoned at the totter ing age of eighty years. Tho present generation has forgotten old Bob Grid ley. He smokes his pipe in his rural chimney corner, and, while a stray teai occasionally trickles down his wrinkled face, he wonders how soon he will bi compelled to seek the refuge of the Sara toga county poorhouse. Saratoga Cor. Chicago Times. Vat People on a Hot Day. On one of the recent hot, soggy after noons, when every man hated his neigh bor and tried to keep at a distance from him, a perspiring, heavily clothed fat man waddled into an elevated train at the city hall station and pre-empted one of the cross seats. He breathed like a porpoise and mopped his faco with a large handkerchief. Just before the train started a woman, heavy almost beyond description wiili adipose tissue, entered the same car. The car creaked beneath her tread. The passengers were many, and thoso who adjoined empty seats watched her prog ress with a nervous glance. But with as great a degree of blindness of choice as is sometimes said to prevail in mar riage, she plunged tc the center of the car and pressed herself down into tho space beside the fat man. The fat man looked at her a moment, but she seemed oblivious of his regard. Then he braced himself for a move and got out of his seat Then the fat woman became aware of his presence. "Don't move plenty of room," said she. ','Madam," said he, and his voice was high and clear, "it's a hot day. I am fat You are fat We've got no busi ness to be any where near each other. So j'ou'll -excuse me." And he moved away with an imitation of dignity, while the passengers laughed at his forcible English. But the fat woman, nettled at first, thought better of it, and as sho spread herself over the entire seat murmured to a crowded neighbor, "There's some advantage in being fat after all." Her Point of Viow in New York Times. Warnings for Writers. Tho Society of Authors in England has issued the following warnings, which are timely: Never sign any agreement of which the alleged cost of production forms an integral part until you havo proved the figures. Never enter into any correspondence with publishers (especially with those who advertise for manuscripts) who are not recommended by experienced friends. Never, on any account whatever, bind yourself down for future work to any one. Never accept any proposal of royalty until you have ascertained exactly what the agreement gives to the author and what to the publisher. Never accept without advice any pe cuniary riBk or responsibility whatever. Never, when a manuscript has been refused by respectable houses, pay others, whatever promises they may put forward, for the production of the work. Never, without advice, sign a receipt which gives away copyright Never forget that publishing is a busi ness like any other business, totally un connected with philanthropy, charity oi pure love of literature. You have to do with business men. Ballard's Snow Liniment. This Liniment is different composition from any other Liniment on the market.

Tesla's experiments with high fre quency currents before the Boyal insti tution have laid such hold on the imagi nation of tho English, who, as Tesla says in a recent letter to a friend in New York, "are the most enthusiastic people in the world in scientific matters," that crowds flock daily to the Crystal Palace to see the high pressure demonstrations people find it hard to believe, without actually seeing it, that a tube carried in the hand, without any wire connection whatever, will fill a room with beautiful light and high pressure discharges with their dazzling and exquisite effects of color and light, and the illumination of wireless vacuum tubes promises to be indispensable at any afternoon party. Exchange. Clouds Of LrfCUSt8. The locusts aro reappearing in Algeria in greater numbers than ever, in spite of the efforts that were made by the French administration last year to annihilate tho pests. It is now believed that they come clear across the desert from tho Soudan. Tho period of incubation varies from twenty to thirty days, and tho locusts require only about two months to attain their complete develop ment This fact gives a realizing sense to tho prodigious numbers in which the terrible insect may multiply during its progress across the Sahara. Great clouds of the locusts have already been seen on the northern edge of the Sahara making their way north. The news comes from Touggurt and Ghardaia in the Sahara that early this year the locusts suddenly invaded those places in such enormous numbers that for four hours they fairly darkened the heav ens. About a month before similar clouds of locusts were reported in the valley of the Niger river in the Soudan, and it is believed that in the four suc ceeding weeks they had journeyed to the northern part of the Sahara. New York Sun. Italy's New Prime Minister. Signor Giovanni Giolitti, the new Ital ian premier, is said to be the youngest head of a ministry that Italy has had since Cavour. Ho is barely fifty years of age, and has only been in parliament ten years. In tho caricatures of him in The Don Chisciotte he used to be rep resented, owing to his being one of the tallest of the deputies, by what might be called a hop pole clad in a long over coat and very high silk hat When he was twenty-two he took his degree of doctor of law, and in 1876, when Signor Depretis was in power, he had become director of customs. Signor Crispi made him minister of the treasury in March, 1880, and in November, 1890, minister of finance. A month later Signor Gio litti resigned, owing to a difference with the minister of public works, whose ex penditure he wished to cut down. He then helped to bring about the fall of tbe Crispi cabinet Signor Giolitti is the leader of tho Piedmontese group of tha left center. London News. ' A Smoke Ceasaamtas; Scheme. A correspondent suggests a method of abating the smoke nuisance in close manufacturing localities by having a smoke duct running through a town, connected in a suitable manner with the different furnaces. In carrying out such a plan it is suggested that the duct might be conveyed outside of the city to a con densing station, an exhaust machine being employed to force the draught At the condensing station the soot laden air would be made to pass through water conveniently proximate, in this way de positing the solid matter, while the air passes away comparatively pure; the soot which remains might easily he col lected, caked and used as fuel, etc The dimensions of the duct for such a pur pose would have to vary, as in the case of water and other mains, according to the work to be performed. Indian En gineering. The Hypaetle Social. The latest kink in the society way ia the "hypnotic social," which has been going about for the past three weeks. A company of friends is invited and an amateur hypnotist is brought in, who proceeds to divert the select audience by experiments with various persons of the company. There are three or four of these amateurs who are picking up a few dollars through these little exhibi tions. One of them is said to be devel oping in such a marvelous way that his friends are endeavoring to persuade him that he could make a fortune as a full fledged prof essionaL Indianapolis J our- nal.

He declares that twenty-five dollars honest ly earned will go farther than $100 won over the card table, and that the gam bier's life has lost all its charms for him. Finally he has promised to join the church. Cor. St Louis Republic E. B. WARNER, Funeral Director. AND EMBALMER. A full line of first-class funeral supplies always in stock. NORTH PLATTE, NEBBRSKA.

Tho Rich brothers, who are known throughout Maine as the crazy evangel ists of Piscataquis county, have been landed in Bangor jail. On May 29 they broke up a religious meeting at Sanger ville becatteo the exposition of tho Gos pel on that occasion was not according' to their ideas, and a day or two later at a funeral, when the officiating clergy man remarked that the deceased was a good woman and was then in heaven, one of the brothers jumped up and de clared that she had gone in an entirely different direction. That was the last straw, and the evangelists will suffer sixty days of martyrdom in a placo where more attention is paid to the making of .brooms than to theology. New York Sun.

Thirteen sheep and three lambs are on their way consigned to the agricultural department at Washington a fact that presents considerable interest for tho agriculturally minded. They were ship ped from Persia, and an attempt is to be made to iutroduce their breeding into this country. These sheep are said to be noted for the beauty and richness of their skins, which are the purest astrakhan. As a warm climate is necessary for their ex istence, at least for the present, they will probably be sent to southern Cali fornia or to somo other warm climate, where their valuo and adaptability to this country can be determined. Wor cester Spy. Frnits Attract Them. Hosts of unemployed men and others Beeking temporarily to better their con dition are flocking to the Delaware pe ninsula now to pick small fruits for the markets of Philadelphia and New York. The fruit growers erect rude sheds in the open fields, and here the berry pick ers eat and sleep while the season lasts. The earnings of berry pickers are con siderably above tho average pay of farm hands. Later in the season come the "peach plucks," a race of tramps from all parts of the northern Atlantic slope, feared by the native farmers and hated as competitors by the negro farm labor ers. Said It, and Then He Died. Bert C. Hunter, a prominent mining man of Neihardt, Mon., died recently from a sixty grain dose of morphine, taken with suicidal intent Physicians worked over him for seventeen hours without success. Toward the last, while being jolted on a board, slapped in the face and shaken to keep him awake, he looked up ruefully and mut tered, "Oh, what a difference in tho morning." Cor. San .Francisco Exam iner. Ires Deposits in Finland. An important discovery of very ex tensive iron ore deposits, which are even supposed to rival the enormous iron ore mountain at Gellivora, in north Sweden, has quite recently been mado in Finland by M. Stjernvall, the geologist Diamond at the Fair. The exhibit of minerab and precious stones at the World's fair in Chicago will bo unusually complete and interest ing. Tho diamond department, undei direction of a company from South Af rica, will be more closely studied than anything else, for here in a mass of "blue stuff" will be hidden $230,00C worth of diamonds, some of which will every day be washed out and put on the polishing wheel in the presence of the public The old ways of diamond min ing, like the old ways of gold washing, are gone, never to return, and the in dustry is now reduced to the same mat ter of fact business as manufacture.

A trader named O'Reilly hap pened to pass and the glitter of the plaything attracted his notice. Exam ination proved it to be a fine diamond. Prospectors came swarming in as soon as the news had got about, and foui years later the farmer was glad to sell his farm for $30,000 to get rid of the mob.
