The Legislators. The coming session of the leg Ulature will be especially Intereetiug. Aftar all year* the republicans are again In control of both bouses. A United States senator will be elected and a host of other good things should be dune. No matter what your politics you will want to read about the legislature. No matter what paper you read at other times, you should read the Lincoln State Journal during the legislature. It is printed at the state capital and devotes more apace to the legislative doings than all the other state dailies combined. The Journal has jumped away up in the lead, baaing the largest circulation in Nebraska. It Is spending more money for news than its competitors. Col. Bliby Is Its dally poet, it also has Walt Mason. Wm. E. Annin, its Washington correspondent, servos up Washington stuff as no other correspondent employ* ad by Nebraska papers has ever done It. Annin knows Nebraska people and Ne braska politicians like a book; his let ters are a great feature. Stories are fur nished by Conan Doyle, ltudyard Kip ling, and a host of others who aro regu lar contributors to the world's greatest magaslnes. Ths Journal's price has been‘cut to SO cents per month, without Sunday, and 05 cents with Sunday. You should try it awhile. The semi-weekly Journal is only $1.00 per year, and is a gteat family paper, almost as good as a daily for a large class of people. The Journal’s phenomenal growth is due largely to the reduction in price and the policy of attending to its own business not presuming to* be a dictator. Soiling HI* Boy. Every men has his prlae in England as la shown by an advertisement that appeared recently In a newspaper, which read: "A beautiful boy for adoption. Gentleman going abroad. Would give hts boy to lady or gentle* man for the sum of £300.” The society for the prevention of cruelty to chil dren investigated the matter, and found that a farmer who had lost his wife and intended to. emigrate was actually trying to dispose of his child. A Pauper Support* lllm**lf. The town of Orneville up in Maine tried a queer experiment, the queer* eat part of which was that it was suo* eeasful. The superintendent of the town farm having run away, and the town having an able- bodied man and his family to support, moved them upon the farm and put them in charge of it. Thus far he has been able to support his family. Right Arm Paralyzed!

IIM lleen CnltlnaM Until II* I* n IlnrmlMi Luxury. There has been recently somo ad verse ICngllsh comment on the Ameri can taste in bulldogs. It la Intimated that it is » feature of Anglomania and not to be compared with the genuine Kngllsh love for the ugliest of Its kind. The American loves bulldogs as he loves hothouse flowers. He buys only champions. Yet with out his usual acuteness he buys the champion when ho is going down hill. The one instrnce given of when he really knew a good thing is that of the Hedgebury Lion. Kor this dog there is an Knglish authority that its owner was offered $1,75D by a Now Yorker’ at U months old. The offer was refused. The dog afterwnrd came to this country for £100. Itritomartis also cuuie to this country, the price being 9000. Ills Lordship, a descendant of Dam Pedro, the most aristocratic of all bulldogs, is also in tho United States. Dorn l'edro Is 13 years old, and it seems that the average age of a bulldog is only 10 years. The bulldog in Kng land is, after all, an exotic. lie is an arrangement of “man and Provi dence.” This is admitted. The coster's delight and the docker’s darling was a very different beast ’JO years ago The bulldog’s nose has been grad ually retired, until it is scarcely more than an amusing suggestion. Ills un der jaw has been brought up and lias assumed the prominence that really belongs to tho nose. Philanthropic people have commented from time to time on tho propriety of interposing on tho part of the nose, It is Huid, nnd not without reason, that the nose is a sort of a purchase point in seizing hold, and, moreover, that the upper jaw being forcibly rutirod in tho of facement of the nose tho lower jaw is not properly supported In its business of holding on. Tho bulldog was once Intended by nature tor a useful lifo. He Is now a creature of luxury, a lady’s pet. DID NOT LIKE THE SWELLS. Itmuon'i Kiptrltnm In Now York Society Not a Pleasant On*. The death of Robert Louie Steven son recalled his experience in New York socloty during the short time he Btnyed there on his way to the Pacific coast a few years ago. Most of the Americans he had met before that were those novelists, artists, and newspaper men from this country who live in London, or frequently so journ there, and these lib liked, partly, I suppose, because they reverenced his genius, and because also they had more or loss claim to his literary regard. When Stevenson arrived in New York he was taken up by one or two well-known society people and received in what are spoken of as “good houses”— and a good many of these, lie was as shy as Hawthorne, unconven tional in his manners and indifferent as to his dress. Instead of meeting the sort of men who were seen everywhere In London socioty, he was brought Into contact almost entirely with a lot of brainless fops, who looked upon him as a curiosity, and numbers of silly and artificial women, who triod “to talk up to him,” and failed. This was due in some measure to the fact that his health forced him to go out urincipally in the daytime. But the rosult was to give him a strong distaste for what he had been assured was the “best so ciety” in New York. Afterward he shunned visiting Americans in Samoa, and spent a good deal of time de nouncing perambulating impression ists who essayed to describe his life there on his return. When properly understood he showed himself'pos sessed of a noble heart and a winning personality. His death was a sad loss to literature. -- Hammered Iron Work. The popularity of black iron lamps and lanterns for the piano, the study, or porch, has given impetus to the languishing art of working in ham mered irou. It is the highest type of iron work as well as the most beauti ful aud we are glad to see it revived. The hammered iron work of the middle ages has been reverenced al most as a departed art The best of this work is very expensive, but that has not prevented the production of some magnificent examples. The opportunity for the xtse of hammered iron work is large, including gates, railings, balconies, etc., and it would appear that once general attention was directed to this species of artistic ornamentation the field of its appli cation would lie extensive. It \V»» Aunty! A belated tourist was obliged to ask for a bed at a farm-house, having wandered far from his hotel. On rising in the moruing he found him self without tooth-powder. Looking about him. he espied on the mantel piece a small box containing powder, which he used. When he paid for his bed, ho apologized to the farmer’s wife for having used her tooth powder. “Tooth-powder?" she queried; “we have none.” “Yes, my good woman. It was in a small round box on the mantel-piece.” "That,” she screamed—“that was not tooth-powder! That was aunty!” Aunty had been cremated. The Word -Cathollo.” The word “Catholic” is first used in the apostle's creed, where it says: “One holy,catholic, apostolic church.” It is next used by Ignatius, who is said to have beeu an apostle of John. He used the word in this sentence: "Wherever Jesus is, there is the Cath olic church." St. Augustine (A. D. 400) says; "The very name of ‘Catho lic’ holds me to the church.” The word is derived from "kata,” mean ing “in or “through,” and “olus," the whole. I ON AN IRONCLAD AT SEA. | Mr* oil tb* Omn W»i and Home on tha 14oiling limp. Admiral von Werner, a high author ity In naval matters in Germany, de scribes in a work recently published the behavior of armor-plated meu-of war In heavy seas. He says: “Even with a moderate gale and sea an armor-plated cruiser, If going against the wind, will And herself in condi tions similar to those of a storm—at least, the crew will have that im pression. The movements of the stern of tlio ship are violent and exceed ingly disagreeable. The waves pushed by the advancing prow sweep con tinually over the ship from bow to stern. All windows and port holes must be closed, and air reaches the lower decks, where the heat increases unbearably, only through the artiii cial ventilators. With tho ex ception of the specially pro tected command bridge all the uncovered portions of the ship aro impassable; thus the whole of the crew nr.ust bear as well as they can the bell of the closed decks. On such a ship no one can feel comfortable; and when there is a storm in which a sailing ship would feel comparatively at ease tho crew of an armor-plated ship imagines itself to be in a heavy hurricane which threatens destruc tion at every minute. The long, nar row forepart of the ship, which is not borne lightly by the water, and is rendered extremely heavy by tho mighty ram and the armored deck itnd tho cannon and torpedoes, forces the ship In a high sea to pitohings and rollings of such an extraordinary kind that they cannot be described. The crew of such a ship is not only exposed to mortal dangers, but the voyages they make render them physically, extremely and danger ously nervous; the mental impressions they receive wear them out and make the profession hateful.” THEY ARE WELL "FIXED.1* IVlint the Comte de Faria' Family Hava Become Poaaeased Of. Tho com to de Paris was not stingy, but was foud of money. Ills view of his children was that without heaps of money and royal husbands or wives their lot would be unenviable. lietween the dowries he could give and the importance the courts of Europe attached to him as a “legiti mate” pretender, their matrimonial prospects were brilliant. The queen of Portugal was given $30,000 a year during her parents’ lifetime. She will altogether have about $60,000 or moro. So will each oi her sisters. ||The youngest son was left the re version of Villa Mamique, which is now worth 8,000,000 francs. The corate de Paris must have been worth $335,000 a year, Independently of what he had from the duchesse de Galliera. lie had a fourteenth part of the 53, 000,000 francs of appanges, and of ‘‘the Orleans debt,” of 16,000,000 francs, which the Versailles assembly allowod to Louis Philippe’s debt. Of the uncles' and aunts’ shares he and the due de Chartres had about $300,000 apiece, the arrears of their mother’s dower income, which was secured on the Orleans estates. The duchesse de Galliera gave about 1,500, 000 francs. A good deal of this was sunk in improvements of the Eu and Amboise chateaux and estates, but very littte of it was spent on po litical organizations. The fortune of the comtesse de Paris must be very great, but It has been kept “dark.” Bernhardt's Dressmaker. There is a modiste in Paris who owes the fortune she is making to Mine. Bernhardt. Her name is on the billheads, tray-trunks and bandboxes, but she is known all over the profess ional and fashionable world as sim ply “Bernhardt’s dressmaker.” She picks her customers, gets her own prices, charges like a body of cavalry in combat, and makes gowns, robes, wraps and those indescribable lace things collectively known as confec tions that are the envy or admiration of the gay world. She has a dozen American customers, a score or so of English patronesses and a hundred or more French women, for whom she designs. What He Wanted. One evening, at a symphony re hearsal of the Meiningen orchestra, Bulow stopped the orchestra and ex claimed: “Kettle-drums forte!” The drummer, who thought he had done pretty well already, redoubled his efforts; but again Bulow stopped and shouted: “Kettle-drums forte!” Once more the drummer put on extra steam; and, when Bulow stopped again, he exclaimed. "Really, Herr Kapell meister, if I beat any harder I shall break the drum-heads!” “Who asked you to do that?” retorted Bulow quietly; “you play fortissimo, and what I want is forte only. ” C'oraets for ttao Feet. The latest atrocity in the interest of fashion is a corset for the foot. The new instrument of torture is made so as to enable a size smaller shoe to be worn than would be other wise possible, and consists of a strong though thin band of web, which is fixed round the instep while the foot is off the ground. When it is ip place it is comparatively easy to put on a shoe which is altogether too small, and the pressure being on the corset instead of the shoe, the latter does not stretch. New Readme of u Old Saying. “Tommy,” said the teacher, “you may put in different language the expression, ‘Let me write the songs of ray country and I care not who makes its laws.’ ” About fifteen minutes later Tommy banded in a, paper bearing the words. “Let me pipe the lays of a country, and I don’t care who lays the pipes.” BRAVE JAPANESE SOLDIERS. llerale Action of f hreo Men Enable* an Army to Croc* a River. On or about October 12, 1804 a com- } pany of engineers of the Fifth division of the Fifth army corps reached the Yalu river. They first of all started I I to look for the best point for con- j strutting a bridge over the river. The first thing to be done for the pur pose was to sound the water. The other side of the river being in pos session of the enemy great care had to be taken not to alarm the enemy, and the night time was chosen for sounding, which rendered the under taking much more difficult of accom plishment. In sounding a rope must be carried to the other side, and some one must cross the river to carry and fix the end of the rope. Mihara Kunitaro, a soldier from the town of Buyo,offered to undertake the service. lie was the most noted swimmer in the company, lie sprang into the water and began to wade across, but before he reached the other side he was half frozen by the cold and was disabled from swimming. Every effort was made from the shore to save the hero, but in vain. lie was drowned and drifted to the other side. Seeing this a ser geant, Miyake Ilyokichi, jumped into j tlie river and ordered another soldier to follow him with a rope, and both arrived safely on the other side. The preparations for sounding the water were thus completed. The fact that the Japanese army easily crossed the Yalu river was owing to the heroic doedsof these three men. THE VALUE OF STAMPS. Old One* That Are Costly and New Ones 1 hat Will Be In Demand. The great increase in the prices cf the stamps of this country, as is shown by the new stamp catalogue, created a heavy demand for many of them, collectors being anxious to get what stamps they lacked before the new prices went into effect. While some specimens remain at the old prices, others have doubled, the aver age increase on the adesives being about twenty-five per cent. Five new stamps have been issued for use between Fez and Sepro in Morocco, the values being B, 10, 2."., and 50 centimes and 1 franc. Mexico has issued four new varie ties of envelopes, the four and ten centavoes on white laid paper, and live and ten on white woven paper. Until recently many collectors in this country were in the habit of buy ing United States stamps from Eng land, where they could be purchased at much lower prices than here. Af fairs have changed now, and fine specimens of the old issues of this country, and especially the rare de partment stamps, such as executive, justice, state, and navy, will now bring higher prices in London than can be obtained in New York. A new set of adhesive stamps is contemplated for the Bahamas. Stamp-collecting has grown so much in favor lately that it is now a regular thing for many of the large daily papers to give weekly install ments of stamp matter. PILLMAN IS GOOD EATING. A Siberian Dish Very Suitable to an American Cold Day. There is a Siberian dish called “pillman,” that makes good eating in America on a cold day, and can be made to utilize scraps of cold meat, though the Russian dish calls for fresh meat. Chop quite fine about a pound of cold meat—steak, if you use fresh meat; put with it one small onion and season well; then add a cup of rich gravy. If the meat is fresh, cook for a few moments in the gravy, for the American palate likes well cooked meats. If the meat has been cooked, simply heat it through, and set aside to cool while you make the paste. Beat up one egg; then add it to a pound of flour, salted slightly, and work into a stiff, tough dough, with as little water or milk as possible. Roll the dough very thin and cut out round pieces, in the center of which put two tablespoonfuls of the meat Gather the edges up and pinch to gether, as for apple dumplings; then put them in a kettle of boiling soup stock. As soon as they come to the surface of the stock they are suf ficiently cooked. Serve them with a gravy broth, made of melted butter, with a dash of vinegar in it, or with a boat of the broth in which they were boiled. Down the Pike. A young lady from a rural town spent several days with a friend in Louisville. The first night of her visit her girl host and bedfellow was awakened by her friend, who clutched her frantically and made a desperate attempt to get out of bed. An electric ca r had just dashed by with the usual accompaniment of racket and gong. The hostess held on to the guest and said: “What's the matter, Belle? What are you get ting out of bed for?” “Let me alone,” murmured Belle, in a sleepy, faraway, blue grass region tone. “I want to see who that is scootin’ down the pike.” Mack to the Army. After a violent scene, by a vote of 307 to £15, the French chamber of dep uties has decided in M. Mirman's case that a Frenchman’s obligation to perform military service suspends his powers as a representative of the peo ple. M. Mirman had been exempted from military service on engaging to teach for ten years. But resigned his professorship before the time was up, when he was elected deputy. The minister of war then ordered him to join bis regiment and the chamber agrees in the view that he mast serve his term before he can take his seat j as a deputy. HISTORY OF ROLLER SKATES InventeU by a Yankee and FI ret Used In a Havel Pantomime. The luto ex-Mayor Winslow made a good deal of money in skatos, ice and roller, although he was u man of many affairs, says tho Worcester, Mass., Guzetto. Ilis death naturally recall the days when tho rinlc was in its prime, and when the gallant and graceful Kynock, profossor in the art of rolling about, used to promenade fir-t with ono pretty girl and then with another, occasionally darting ol with vast outer-edge sweeps backward and forward. Forty years ago the Ravels, French pantomiinists of extraordinary clever ness, made great profit in tho Unit 'd States. One of their shorter panto mimes was (lodinski, or the Skater o' Wien. Trio last scene showed a l ol sii pond covered with gay skaters, w o careened around merrily and threw property snowballs at each oth r (iodinsiti appearo 1 with a chair le irn ing to skate. This was tho origina act. and before tho days of tho Karols nobody iiad ever seen a roller skate The scene ended by tho iee breaking, (lodinski fell through, but was res cued in t!n> end. These skates ran on little wheels set s juarely, in the pla ce of tho blades of an iee skate—tho simplest possible form. They did not pivot and could not be used for figure-skating. Kx; eept they wore low. they were like the high road skates lately put in use in Scotland and now or. trial in Kurope, they set Yankee inventors to thinking, why not a r-'al skating party on boards as well as actors. • tmo nay tnere openeu in wnai was then upper Washington street, Boston, in the to]) story of I’lympton's furni ture warehouse, a school and practice ground for roller skaters. This was about the year 1-Sfi7. Plympton’s brother had invented a skate on which you could do tho outer edge by loan ing over, as on ice. Tho rollers were in pairs and on pivots. The boys and girls camo out and found it easy to learn, but it was not advertised and fow hoard of it. The result was tha closing of the place and tho apparent failure of the invention as a popular toy. The inventor wont to Europe. Pur suing more liberal methods, he made a huge success. He planted rinks hi every principal city, and gathered ducats in piles. Unfortunately they lasted nowhere more than a fow years New plants had to bo constantly es tablished. LEGAL ADVERTISEMENTS.
