-Attorneys Smith and Leavitt
of the Union Pacific legal depart
ment and Chief Canada of the
secret service department are in
town to day for the purpo se of at
tending the damage suit brought
against the company by George
Ostrander. The suit is for dam
ages in the sum of $4,593 and grows
out of Ostrander's arrest and im
prisonment on suspicion that he
was one of the fellows who held up
the mail train near Brady Island
on the night of August 20th, 1895.
After'being in jail four dars Os
trander was discharged from cus
tody. He says he was not only ar
rested without a warrant, but was
kept in jail without cause, no war
rant being obtained for his arrest
even after he had been imprisoned.
The damages asked are of course
extortionate, yet the prevailing
opinion seems to be that some sum
will be awarded him for the four
days he was detained in durance
vile. Hoagland & Hoagland are
counsel for Ostrander.

D. C. Stapleton, formerly of the
south part of of the county, and who
still has an equity in a large bod'
of land near Wallace, has just re
turned from a trip to London. For
some time past he has been em
ployed as an immigration promoter
and agent for the sale of railroad
lands. In speaking of Mr. Staple
ton the Omaha Bee of last evening
says: Mr. Stapleton said that he
found the interests and the confi
dence in the west among the Britons
at its high water mark. He was
particularly hopeful that during
the coming year considerable Brit
ish capital would find it way to Ne
braska for investment. He said
that the electiou of William Mc
Kinley and the consequent settle
ment of the financial question
has gone a long way toward re
assuring the Englishmen of the fu
ture pt the west. Mr. Stapleton
has an office in London, but spends
most of his time traveling through
the country. He mingles consider
ably with the upper classes and
finds his work very agreeable. - He
has unusually good opportunities
for learning the feeling of the
jnoneyed classes toward Nebraska
ttndVdtber states and -when -he-says
the sentiment is a friendly one the
statement is worth considering.

Last Sunday evening Dr.Fisher
delivered a sermon on the "Seven
wonders ot North Platte ' at the
Baptist church. The seven wond
ers consisted of the vice and im
morality which does.or is supposed,
to exist in this city, and in his
enumeration the D.octor made a
rather severe arraignment of our
mayor and the county sheriff. He
said he was creditably informed
that the sheriff had been seen play
ing cards with minors on Sunday
in the back room ot a saloon.
Sheriff Miller, as soon as he heard
ot this statement, took exceptions
and denied its truthfulness. In
fact it made the sheriff pretty warm
under the collar, and he at once
employed council to bring a civil
action against Dr. Fisher. Sheriff
Miller stated this morning that his
attorneys were at work on the case
and that an information would
probably be made out to-day. Asked
as to what the charge against the
Doctor would be, the sheriff stated
that it had not at thattime been
definitely; settled.- Jtjs-thought an
attempt will be made to settle the
matter before it gxes into court.

The records of the U, S. signal

December day was the day before

cury dropped to 27 below zero. The
average precipitation for December
is fifty-seven one hundredths of an

1877 it amounted to nearly four
inches. The highest velocity at
tained by any December wind was
on the 4th ot that montu in
when it registered 72 miles an hour.

Now that the supreme court .has
decided the legality ot the Califor

the Lincoln and Dawson County
Irrigation district are getting
things in shape to build their canal.
Tljis district was organized last
year and in September, 1895, bonds
to the amount of $375,000 were
voted upon the district for the con-
fatructiou of a canal. Three sur
veys were made and ail the plans
and specifications drawn up by the
district's engineer, Rudolph Stur-
negk, and the transactions of the
board of directors were duly ap
proved by the judge of the district
court last December.

terminate on section 34, township

length of the jnain canal being- 60.37
miles and will water 40,000 acres;
the laterals will be 115 miles long-

and a branch caiial will be run
from the county line to Gothenburg.
The capacity of the canal is esti

Joan of Arc on the Battlellcld.
In battle her courage was foarless,
and well it was that it was so, for
each success was dearly bought, her
indomitable energy nlono inspiring
her faint hearted follower's. When
her troops threatened rotreat, it was
by throwing herself into tho thick
est of the fight, crying, "They aro
ours!" that she turned defeat to vic
tory. Often wounded, she disdained
the pain of her mangled flesh and
remained on tho field as an examplo
to her men. A gracious woman with
al, her pity was oven greater than
her courage, braving and receiving
blow3, but never returning them.
She had but one weapon, her ban
ner, tor Jier sword never loft its
scabbard. Lator she was to say that
she "loved her banner a thousand
timos more than her sword." At
night, when tho hoar of battlo was
assuagod, her tears fell at the
ought of the wounded and the
dead. "I have never seen French
blood shed without my hair stand
ing on end," was one of her naive
utterances. Tho enemy commanded
her pity as well, and she was as of
ten seen assisting tho dying English
as her own people. Thus sho was
not only the mind which directs, sho
was likewise tho hoart filled with
sympathy, the soul solicitous of tho
welfaro of other souls, intuitively
understanding that tho soldier who
fights the best is ho whose heart is
puro. In the same spirit sho lighten
ed tho burden of tho army by cur
tailing useless luggago,' and sho
drove away tho disropntablo women
who had followed the camp and
with them tho debauohory and dis
order which they had brought. On
the other hand, she gently admon
ished her soldiers to clear their con
science, to ho virtuous and religious

Another kind soul took tho opportu
