It is an easy thing to account for the wonderful growth of the Daily State Journal recently. Its price has been reduced to 50 cents per month without Sunday or 65 cents with Sunday. The Journal has always been reliable and honest, printing the news without fear or favor. The people of Nebraska realize that they need a paper published at the capital, and when the price of the Jour nal was reduced the subscription list grew at a phenomenal rate. The Jour nal is a Nebraska paper through and through.__ "Is cbincher making any money of politics now?” “Not a cent. Says he is perfectly satisfied with what he makes in it.” _ A. M.

To thabest of our knowledge the moat deadly poison la that which was discovered by Professor Frazer, of Edinburgh, Scotland, and known aa shophanthidin. He separated it from the African poison plant, shophan thus hispldus, by means of ether and alcohol. As little as a one-thousand* millionth part of an ounce of crystal* lized shophanthldtn produces a dis tinctly injurious effeot upon the heart, and a very small quantity is fatal Another deadly poison is cy anogen gas, the principal ingredient of hydrocyanic or prussio add. At ordinary temperatures it is simply a gas, but can be condensed by cold and pressure into a thin, colorless liquid and be comes a solid mass at 30 degrees Fahrenheit. The inhalation in ita gaseous state of a most minute quan tity would cause instant death. One of the most deadly poisons is arseniur etted hydrogen, or arsenio, which is formed by decomposing an alloy of arsenic and zinc with sulphuric acid. It is a colorless gas, possessing a fetid odor of garlic, and aots as a most deadly poison. Adolph Ferdinand Oehlen, a chemist born about 1775 at Butow, in Pomerania, was the dis coverer of it. While experimenting with it at Munich, on July 15, he in haled a single bubble of the pure gas and died in eight days from the ef fects. The accident occurred through his smelling at the joints of his appa ratus to discover a flaw. Others en gaged in chemical operations have died from the effects of this poison in three days. LIKE 8LAVES. Although Then Negroes Know That They Are Free. In Cumberland county, Tennessee, there are five negroes who are just as much slaves as they were before the war. The plantation on which they live is run on a small soale bnt on exactly the same principles as it was forty years ago. The five negroes live in the slave quarters, just as about thirty men did in the ‘‘good old times.” Not one of the five ever received a cent in wages. They are perfectly aware that they are free, but they have a kind of philosophical appreciation of the fact that they were not cut out for financiers. From time to time one or more of them have wandered from the fold, only to come back half baked and half starved. The men are 'quite content, and their grumbling is clearly chronic rather than the result of any special desire for a change. The squire is now a very old man, but he orders his unpaid help around with all the vim and energy of a youth and the alacrity with which he is obeyed seems to indicate to a visitor that dis obedience involves prompt treatment and unpleasant consequences. The plantation altogether presents a strikingly entertaining reproduction of the South before the war, and to judge from the appearance of the buildings and outhouses scarcely a dollar has been spent in repairs since the issuing of Lincoln’s famous proc lamation LOST CARNOT’S HAT. In the Excitement of the Moment An other Man Wore It Awar. A strange incident marked the last days spent by Mme. Carnot in the palace which had Hejn her home for seven anxious years. She desired to preserve as precious relics for her family all the articles of dress worn by her husband at the moment when he was struck down by the assassin’s hand. These were carefully collected and sent to her, but the hat alone was missing, and it was supposed to have been lost in the confusion of that fatal drive. It appears, however, that among the first to offer medical help as the victim lay on his deathbed at the prefectuie was Dr. Girard, the mayor of Cliarbonnieres. When other surgeons took charge of the case this gentleman discreetly withdrew and was looking for his hat, whereupon Colonel Chamoin handed one to him. He put it on and went home thinking it was his own, for it fitted him exactly. Not until some day later he cast his eyes on this article of headgear as it hung in his hall, examined it more closely and found it marked inside with a “C” did he recognize his mistake. The lost hat was forthwith restored and Mme. Carnot acknowledged its receipt in a letter expressing her heartfelt thanks. Too a Pro-luct. A recent bo-ik narrates that a part} from the vest of England was shown over the British museum. In one of the rooms the keeper pointed out a collection of antique vases which had been recently dug up at Herculaneum. “Dug up, sir?” echoed one of the party. “Yes, sir.” “What, out of the ground? “Undoubtedly.” “What, just as they now are?” “Perhaps some little pains have been taken in cleaning them, but in all other re spects they were found just as you see them.” The wise man from Som ersetshire turned to one of his com panions, and with an incredulous shake of the head, whispered: “He may say what he likes, but he shall never persuade me that they dug up ready-made pots out of the ground!” Changes In Dress. Rubber shoes are not as salable as they were a few years ago. Women are getting sensible. They have dou ble soled boots that are made for the street and worn on the street. Some are calfskin, but all are thick,service able and comfortably fitted. Boots of this sort invariably accompany the cloth dress, felt hat and loose gloves of the woman who understands and il lustrates the eternal fitness of thinga> i Ivory BEST FOR SHIRTS. THE PROCTER k QAMBLE 00, 0IKT1. Dec. 15. HE'D L.ET OO. A Buffalo Man Give, a Pointer to tha Saint. In an art gallery in a town not far from Buffalo there hangs a splendid painting by some Frenchman (name forgotten by deponent) of the temp tation of St Anthony. The painting is one of the show pieces of the gal lery and cost a fabulous amount of money. This artist's version of the tempta tion represents the sorely-tried saint clinging to a small sap ling with one hand, while three scantily-clad and bewitching fe males are tugging on the other hand and trying to pull the saint from his tree. The expression on the saint's face is the crowning glory of the picture. It is marvelously painted. The other day a dignified and well known Buffalonlan was escorting through the gallery his wife and her friend, a charming yrang widow from Washington. They came to this picture and stood before it a long time discussing its beauties. Just as they were about to leave, the young Washington widow glanced archly at the Buffalonlan and said: “Now Mr. B. if you were in St. An thony’s place, what would you do?" The Buffalo man looked perplexed And hesitated for a minute, then said: “Well, if the tree didn’t break, I think I should let go my hold.” HALF BROWN. furious Markings on tbo Body of a Lu lls White Boy. The colored woman who is turning white in places has a rival in a little white boy who was born brown in places. The color of his brown places is about the same as that of the skin of the average Afro-American. The little boy, George Bussell by name, is the son of a baker in New York. He was born in Omaha two years ago. He is fain-haired and his skin is light, aside from the patchea He is plump and healthy. The boy is mostly white as far down as the waist line, below which he is brown, with the exception of the left leg below the knee. The white portion, including the face, arms and body, is dotted with large patches of varying intensity of color. On the left temple is a very large red birthmark. This is the only approach to deformity in the child. Otherwise he is very well formed. There are fifteen spots on the face, nearly as many more on the scalp, and more are scattered over the should ers, arms and body. The left leg be low the knee is liberally spotted with color down to the foot and on the toes. Palpitations the Heart Shortness of Breath, Swelling of Legs and Feet. “For about four years I was troub led with palpitation of the heart, shortness of breath and swelling or the legs and feet. At times I would faint. I was treated by the best phy sicians in Savannah, 6a., with no re lief. I then tried various Springs without benefit. Finally, I tried Dr. Miles’ Heart Cure also his Nerve and Liver Pills. After beginning to take them J felt later! I continued taking them and I am now In better health than for many years. Since my recovery I have gained fifty pounds in weight, I hope this state ment may be of value to some poor sufferer.” E. B. 8UTTON, Ways Station, Qa. for sale by all druggist*. !
