The independents who believe that
County Attorney Murphy is a shining
legal light will probably wonder why it
was that he could not prosecute a little
case of mandamus without the aid of
that learned gentleman, M. F. Harring
ton.
Dave Moler, of Leonia, brought into
this office on Monday some samples of
corn raised in Bovd county. The stalk
was 9 feet 3 inches tall, and a sample of
sod corn was 7 feet high. The corn
was raised by Mr. Moler’s son who has a
farm six miles north of Butte,
Farmers of Inman and Verdigris
townships request us to slate that all
persons caught killing prairie chickens
in that vicinity will be prosecuted. The
action of the farmers all over the county
in preventing the wanton slaughter of
the birds this year is commendable.
We have always been under the im
pression that a prosecuting attorney
could have no legal assistance without
an order of the court, but in the man
damus proceedings against Scott we see
that M. F. Harrington is associate coun
sel. Who will pay him, the county
board? _
When the county board affirms that
it has twice removed Barrett Scott for
misdemeanor and then moves, seconds
and carries “that the county treasurer
be added to the committee to meet with
the state board of equalization,” who
does it mean?
The A. O. U, W. lodges of Orchard,

County Clerk Butler and W. W.
Bethea went down to Lincoln last week
to have the assessed valuation of real
estate in Holt county lowered. The
board would give them no definite an

twenty other counties also had repre
sentatives there at the same time for
the same purpose.
Oconomowoc, Wis., July 24.—Will
iam Schumacher, coachman for William
H. Thompson, of Chicago, was instantly
killed this morning by a blow struck by
his employer. Mr. Thompson found his
coachman in an altercation with another
employe. Thompson • interfered and
struck Schumacher a blow under the ear
from the effects of which he soon after
died.
Mr. Thompson was at one time a resi
dent of Holt county, owning an exten
sive stock ranch in the south country.
“An unusual and odd appearing emi
grant family passed eastward through
Rushville last Monday,” says the Stand
ard. “The family consists of a man
and his wife. Their mode of travel
was on horse back. Their train consists
of six ponies—two to ride and four to
use as pack animals, and they carried a
coufplete camping outfit. This couple
came in this manner from Northwestern
Washington, and were bouud for Wis
consin.” ._
Yesterday morning about 9 o’clock Ed
Ward stepped out of his hardware store
and went into Mann’s harness shop,
which is next door, and remained there
about five minutes. During his absence
some person or persons entered the store
and stole $7 from the till. Although
being next door and watching the stoie
Mr. Ward did not see anyone enter or
leave the building, and it is supposed
that the thief entered the back door, as
it was open at the time. There is no
clew as to the identity of the thief.
We are reliably informed by an
O’Neill citizen that while rending great
holes in the air with dynamite in the
hopes of bringing down some moisture
so he might be able to take a soft water
bath, Ed Hershiser, after lighting the
fuse, in his mad flight to get out of reach
ot the dynamite, upset an elevator,
knocked down a telegiaph pole, tore up
four blocks of sidewalk and rolled up
eighty rods of barb wire fence. But
you can't imagine the tired feeling he
experienced after paying all damages
and returning, to find that he had for
gotten to attach the fuse to the dyna
mite.—Randolph Independent.
Clarence Selah, of thte place, is nego
tiating the ’ establishment of a ready
print house at Norfolk, whose mission
it will be to print the patent sides of
weekly papers. The Norfolk Herald is
unhospltable enough to wish that he
might locate the enterprise elsewhere.
It looks like a queer way of building up
a town to oppose new enterprises. Tun
Frontier desires to assure Mr. Selah
that if he will locate in O’Neill he will
be more bourteously received.
Lu B. Clarks and Ella June Meade,
world-lamed elocutionist!, will give an
entertainment in the opera-house In this
city on Thursday evening August 10,
under the auapecies of the A. O. U. W.
lodge. The ladies of the Degree of
Honor will sell tickets. The Norris
town (Pa.) Herald speaks of them as
follows: “People sat s‘pell bound and
listened to a remarkable exhibition
seldom given by artists of the rostrum.
The entertainment is not a drowsy
lecture nor is exactly a concert, but con
sists of a variety of good things, echo
novelties, funny originalities, char
acters and songs, and the entire enter
tainment exceedingly chaste and re
fined. _'
Bank Examiner Cline finished up his
work at the Holt County bank last week
and went down the road Baturday, re
turning Monday. In conversation with
a Frontier man this morning he said
that the bank would not resume busi
ness. When asked if the depositors
would lose any money, he said: “No.
The securities are good, and if Mr.
Adams is allowed to settle up the busi
ness it is my opinion that depositors will
be paid in full." The Frontier regrets
that the bank will be unable to re-open,
but is glad that its affairs are in such
good condition that depositors will
come out whole. A meeting of deposi
tors will be called next week to decide
whether or not Mr. Adams will be given
the job of settling up the business.
Juding from the portion of the public
pulse that we have felt he will have no
opposition. Mr. Kline will remain in
charge until some action is taken.
It’s " 'jess’ the same thing, ye know.”
We mean this silly affair of adopting
the Arab superstition that "the unknown
is always great.” But lots of ’em do it
—wittingly or unwittingly. And the
swindles would prosper much more only
for the local press, whose editors are
always looking for fakirs, and always
sounding the note of warning. The
Pendar Republican describes how such
usefulness is requited, when it says that
“when a grocery fakir, traveling peddler
or bankrupt stock fiend strikes a town
the first men to kick are those whose
business is affected, as they should, and
the local press invariably takes their
side of the case. When the wandering
jew of a stereotyped writeup fakir, who
bears exactly the same relation to the
local press as does the peddler to the
retail merchant, comes along, the mer
chant is among bis first patrons, and
men who never patronize their home
papers a cent’s worth are always to be
found among the suckers on the string
of the write-up man.”—Norfolk Herald.
Zimmerman, the wrestler, drifted
into this city last Tuesday from the
west looking for a game, and like
almost every other sport who invades
our ring and casts down the gauntlet,
he found it. Gladiator Doyle, who has
stood in the amateur ring for twenty
years without a fall, was matched
against the stranger. It was to be the
best two out of three, three points to
constitute a fall. A ring was formed
west of the engine house yesterday
afternoon, and the best exhibition of
honest contest that has been in the city
for a long time was witnessed. Doyle
was much the stronger and secured the
first fall in about five minutes. , In the
second round there was some lively
work, Doyle gaining two points on his
man several times but could not get the
third one down and after about ten
minutes hot work offered to declare the
match a draw which was quickly
snapped up by Zimmerman. Gus is a
powerful man, handling his 200 pound
antagonist as an ordinary man would
a ten year old kid, but Zimmerman,
being a professional, would wriggle
like an eel and persist in landing wrong
side up every time to prevent a fall.
The contest was witnessed by about 300
men and when Gus got out of it on a
draw and one fall in his favor they all
went wild with delight.

The Latest.
The following notice was served on
Barrett Scott last Tuesday;
In thk district court of holt county,
Nebraska.
The State of Nebraska, ex re!., the
County of Holt and the Board or
Supervisors of Holt County, Plaintiffs,
vs.
Barrett Scott, County Treasurer of
Holt County, Defendant.
Notice of application for writ ok
Mandamus.
To Barrett Scott, Treasurer of
Holt County:
You are hereby notified that on the
25th day of July. A. D. 1893, the above
named plaintiffs, or as soon thereafter
as they can be heard, will apply to the
district judge of Holt county, Neb., for
a writ of mandamus to issue against you
requiring you to pay off warrants num
bered from 50 to 289 inclusive, the same
being drawn on the general fund of
Holt county for the year 1892. Dated
this 24th day of July, 1893.
H. E. Murpiiy,
M. F. Harrington,
Their Attorneys.
Mr. Scott appeared in person at the
time specified and demurred to the suffi
ciency of the notice, which demur was
sustained and the date of hearing said
case set for Monday, July 31.
still later.
Yesterday morning another petition
asking for mandamus in another caso
was filed, from which we extract the last
paragraph, which explains everything:
The relators therefore pray that a
peremptory writ of mandamus may
issue, commanding said respondent
forthwith to call in and pay off the two
of said county funding bonds numbered
eight and nine, and for costs of this
action.
| Mr. Scott has had so much experience
in law with this board that he has be
come quite proficient and learned m the
! science and now pleads his own cases.
In this instance he simply showed the
court that those bonds were payable at
bis office in Holt county, and further,
that a call had been issued for them
but that they had never been presented.
This was sufficient and n mandamus did
not issue.
We have not as yet learned upon what
grounds they will apply for mandamus
today, but suppose they will scrape up
something for their daily diversion.

At this season of the yeas we are
pretty sure to have a spell of very hot,
dry weather, and plants suffer greatly
from it, and, if it is protracted, they
| often cease to bloom^ and when they do
that it is practically the end of the season
with them, as but few will recover from
the effect later on, when rain comes
writes Eben E. Rexford in a timely
article on "Midsummer in the Garden”
in the August Ladies’ Home Journal.
To ayoid these results and continue the
beauty of the garden, water should be
given freely and regularly. In towns
and villages where connection can be
made with water works this will be an
easy thing to do, but in the small places
and the country it often involves a great
amount of labor. Water at night so
that the sun will not cause the moisture
to evaporate before it has had a chance
to get to the roots of the plants, as it
will if watering is done in the morning.
Instead of - using a watering pot with a
spray nozzle, use one with a spout sim
ply, as thnt will allow you to apply the
water in a stream about the base of the
plants, thus getting enough water where
| it is needed to do good, which would
| not be the case if you were to sprinkle
it over the surface of the ground.
Last Saturday afternoon, a train was
run over the Elkhorn from Long Pine
to Fremont, a distance of 214 miles, in
four hours and twenty minutes, which
was the fastest time ever made over this
road, or any other western line. The
train was a special of two cars, with G.
W. Holdredge, general manager of the
B. & M., Senator Manderson and party
on board. It left Long Pine at 4:02 p.
m., and stopped at Atkinson at 4:42, an
even forty miles in exactly forty min
utcs. The distance of seven miles from
O Neill to Inman was covered in six
minutes, and the train rolled into Nor
folk at 8;55, a distance of 133 miles, hav
ing been on the road two hours and
flftr-three minutes. It left this place at
7:02 and arrived m Fremont at 8:45,
eighty-two miles away. The stops
between Long Pine and Norfolk, for
taking water and other purposes,
amounted to fifteen minutes, and eight
minutes were lost in the same manner
at Fremont, making the actual running
time from Long Pine to Fremont 2C0
minutes for a stretch of 214 miles.
Short spurts of high speed have often
been developed on western roads, but
there is no record of a continuous run
having been made at this rate of speed
| before.—Norfolk Herald. ,

Editoh Frontier:
au iuib ngu nuu uuuuiry irn^nuon lias
passed beyond the experimental stage,
and there is no region to which it would
prove a greater boon than to your state,
and from my knowledge of the subject
I am satisfied that irrigation would maker
every crop a success, and nm convinced,
from observations made in all tho states
where irrigation is employed, that it is
the only system for the people of Ne
braska, Kansas, and other regions where
the same conditions prevail, to pursue.
It is to be regretted that tho people
there are not better Informed on the
subject, and if the press of your state
would Interest them in it sufficiently to
cause closer investigation, much good
would result. If tho several counties
would make appropriations sufficient to
send delegates out west to examino the
systems in successful operation, a yery
low rate would doubtless bo made by
the railroad companies, and the whole
theory of irrigation could be illustrated
by such object lessons as the Bear river
canal, which cost 84,000,000, the systems
in Idaho, and the Frosno dosort in Cali
fornia, which was formerly known as
"The Death Desert.” A man's life was
in danger if he undertook to cross it on
foot, owing to the BCarclty of water. A
snake could not live there, nor could a
swallow fly across it. But irrigation
lifted the death cloth from the face of
that desert, transforming it into a beau
tiful and productive land. Men con
ceived the idoa of tunneling through
the mountains and running the river
through from tho other side of the
range, the expense running from 840 a
foot upward. Now there is plenty of
water In the valley, and on every sec
tion line streams run down each side of
the road. The desert has been trans
formed and vegetation flourishes, vine
yards and orchard^ being seen on every
hand, and men are making ah independ
ent living oil of ten acres of land. Pick
up a handful of the soil and put it in
the sun to dry, and you will find that it
consists of ihnd and gravel, made fer
tile and productive by water.
Should the people of Nebraska follow
that example and turn upon their rich
soil the water now running to waste in
their beautiful riyers they can produce
anything in the'shnpe of grain or vege
tables. But the Nebraska people are
not abreast of the times in this important
matter. Ask the farmer what he thinks
of it and he will tell you that it cannot
be made a success. One will say, "The
water will all sink in the ground,” while
another will tell you that it would be
impossible to sprinkle the big corn
fields. They do not understand the
system and that is the reason why I
desire their representatives to see it
applied.
The road supervisors have been be
sieged with requests from the rain
sharks asking for an appropriation of
8200 with which to buy dynamite to
enable them to produce rain by con
cussion and with the assistance of the
farmers' prayers, but if the welfare of
these same farmers depends upon the
showers these rain sharks will bless
them with, then their crops will be just
as limited in the future as they have
been in the past twenty years, and the
failures will occur just as often. Ne
braska is beautifully situated for the
employment of irrigation. The people
there will not have to contend against
the many serious obstaoles which the
men of the west have met and overcome*
From the northwestern boundary line
to tho southern line there is a difference
in elevation of 1000 feet on a rough esti
mate, which will give plenty of fall to
carry the water anywhere, and there is
no region where the work could be
more cheaply and advantageously done.
But the rain sharp will point out some
little raise in that beautiful table land,
and ask how you are going to get the
water up there. But it is easy enough
and simple enough, as will be demon
strated to your representatives if they
will come out here.
The future of the agricultural indus
try in this western country is bound up
with irrigation, and there are many
other grave considerations which enter
into the matter that can hardly be hinted
at in such a letter as this. The men
who are wearing out their lives in a vain
endeavor to improve their condition,
and sacrificing their labor, will awaken
some day to the advantages which can
be obtained by utilizing the waters of
the Missouri, the Missippi, the Elkhorn,
the Platte, the Niobrara, the Keya Paha
and other rivers. And then, the reduc
tion of the flow, through irrigation, at
the headwaters of the great rivers, will
be a blessing to the people of other
states in lessening the danger of floods.
xi «o, ui uuuiBu, a wcaicru queBUOU, DUl
when your representatives make known
their case in congress and ask for ap
propriations, they will surely find some
friends from the great southern states
which have asked for millions to build
walls along the Missippi in order to save
loss of life and damage to property by
floods. To divert these waters, then,
would result in a double benefit, and in
the great region of which I am speaking
men who are now just able to eke out a
miserable existence on a section, can,
with irrigation, make an easier and
more independent living from twenty
acres. The benefit will not be confined
to farmers alone, but will be far
reaching enough to be felt by all classes
in your state.
It is my hope that Nebraska may send
representatives out to investigate this
important matter, and should it be done
I shall be glad to meet them and go
with them to the various points named
and elsewhere, where the practical and
successful application of the system can
bo seen. Yours respectfully, «

Do you think, my deer women, that '
you over did really end truly appreciate
the full value of a pin? We are afraid,
not, unless you have been caught in the
same dilemma that a Fifth avenue belle
was ii\ New York tho other day. She
was sailing along near Madison square
in all the glory of a new London yaoht
lng suit, when suddenly something in
her underpinning gave way, and In a
minute there were billow* of blaok silk
ruffles swirling around her dainty feet
and a terrible sense of appalling disaster
clouding her faculties. Her petticoat
had broken loose from its moorings and
lay in a shining mass around her. Pic*
ture the situation, my sisters! What t
would you have done under the clrcum
stances? A lot of chappies stood grin
ning around, and for one dreadful mo
ment her head swam and the heavens
above seemed falling. Did this young
woman begin to cry? Did she faint?
Did she grate her teeth or foam at the
mouth as the chappies stood coldly re*
garding her? Oh, no! She simply
swept the horizon with one scornful
glance, calmly stepped out of her petti*
coat, picked it up with the grace of a
young empress, swung it over her arm,
iand, without the quiver of an eyelash,
walked in at the ladies’ entrance of the
Fifth Avenue hotel, and in a jiffy was
once more the charming centre of that
silken circumference, sailing malestio*
ally on.
A young lady remarked within hearing
of our under ground telephone the
other evening that she had an uncon
tfolable passion fur mules. Central
broke ih upon us and deprived us of the
pleasure of hearing the rest of the
soliloquy but we would advise the Wan
dering Jew to bo on his guard as the
lady may steal him some moonless night.
Jacques Inaudi, after puzsling the ■
savants of the French Institute to ao*
count for his peculiar skill in solving
arithmetical and mathematical problems :-!
has gone to London' in the hope of find
ing some one who will be able to un
ravel to him the mystery of his existence.
There is no denying the fact that Inaudi
is par excellence a “calculating young -t
man.” The manner in which he man*
ipulates sextillions, quadrillions, billions
and millions is enough to make a chan*
cellor of the exchequor envious, while
for cube roots and square roots his appe
tite is simply voracious. In fact M.
Inaudi seems to live on figures. For
example, he performes the addition of
six lines of six figures, a sum in subtrac
tion beginning with sextillions and de
scending to units, the multiplication of V
six figures by five figures and the extrac*
tion of the square and cube roots of five
figures all at once, and repeated from
beginning to end, without looking at f
them, all the figures on the blackboard 4
representing these involved sums. More
over, he does his calculations while play
ing a game at dominoes or talking with
a companion. Dr. Charcot, the French
specialist, inclines to the idea that
Inaudi has got two brains. If so, they
seem both to be full of figures.
