It is said that he moved into the dugout partially because he was afraid to stay on earth, and partially that he might be nearer the base of his blackmailing sup plies.

The funeral occurred in O’Neill last Saturday, from tbe Catholic church. Mr.-mnd Mrs. Pat Killoran,' of Glen wood, Neb., were present at the funeral, Mr. Killoran being a son of the deceased. Tn Frontier extends its sympathy to the bereaved relatives. Wednesday evening a merry crowd of young people, drove out to the home Of Hisa Eittie Dwyer with the intention of - giving her a surprise and hav iag an all-around good time. And they succeeded. Cards and other games wore indulged in until 12 o’clock, when an oyster supper was served. About 2 the party started for town all feeling that Miss Kitty was an exceptionally entertaining hostess. Smudge: Tub Frontier spoke of recording S3 new subscribers during the month of January, but the libel never said a word about nearly four hundred that have quit the thief defender in the j past four or five months. Old man. don’t let the condition of our subscription list cause you so much anxiety. Our subscription book was never in a more healthy condition, nor does our memory run to a time when it contained more names. We see by a DeWitt, Ark., paper that “the snow is simply terrible.” Better emigrate to Holt county where etherial mildness abounds and gentle zephyrB murmur lullabys through the seolian whiskers of our people. Doc Mathews is probably the cause of the great fall of snow in Arkansas this win ter. He once indited a poem upon the subject of beautiful snow and since that time has been in constant danger of los ing his life in a blizzard. Mr. Tyrell, a Lincoln attorney, was in O’Neill several days last week looking up some lands under the Elkhorn Irri gation canal in which he contemplates buying an interest. Mr. Tyrell is en thusiastic on irrigation, and the ability to get water for the lands is what led him to entertain a proposition to become a Holt county land owner. He in formed the writer that the Lincoln men who have irrigated lands in the south western part of the state made lots of money on alfalfa last year. The Fron tier hopes to be able to say this of Holt county, farmers next fall. The Jew advertises for a barber to shave “hairy O’Neill.” A populist pre ferred but a Knight of Labor will do. Kautzman, awaiting the arrival of the horny-handed tonsorial artist, is now wearing the regulation Hungarian hir sute appendage with Italian mafia attach ments. It is well enough for him to hang out his sign. Strangers can tell when they meet him that he is a pesti lence, and govern themselves accord ingly. The barber who refuses to bend those pliant hinges of the knee when Ham pulls the string, and thereby loses the tyrant’s trade, may have his income tut to the tune of a couple of dollars a year, but then think of what a great sav ing it iB to his razors. A press dispatch from St. Paul, date ;of last Sunday, says: The reeent ency clical letter of the pope was read yester day at the morning service at the cathe dral. Elsewhere it was read several i weeks ago, and there was a great deal of discussion over the provisions of the let ter and the Interpretations by the dor ies who communicated the wishes of the holy see to the laity.

The Nance County Journal is author ity for the following: "The latest re port about our National Guards is that Fort Omaha is td be evacuated by the U. 8. Regulars and that the guards will oc cupy the quarters a battalion at a time, for three months, taking a turn about. This coincides with the late announce ment of the consignment of an officer of the regular army to drill the guards of this state. The boys of company B are immensely pleased and hope it will come their turn first, it seems to be the pol icy to increase the available force in the United 4 States through the National Guards." JMo more will the pedestrian bffhaunted by the clammy countenance and basi lisk orbs peering from the aperture which furnishes light to the little den recently vacated by the Jew. No more will the great heart (?) palpitate, or the appolo-like (?) form tremble with appre hension as the ear, trained to catch the slightest sound, detects the approach of footsteps which the guilty mind appre hends to be those of a midnight assassin bent on an errand of blood. Keep thy seat Jew, keep thy seat; n.or let the icy beads of perspiration start upon tby brow: the opportunity to get thy boots off will doubtless be accorded tbee. Among the supplies for the relief of the destitute which have been received at this depot, was a package containing a large supply of smoking tobacco. The effect which this would have on an empty stomach or shivering form would hardly be as salutary as that of a sirloin of beef or a buffalo-skin coat, but as a solace to an over-burdened mind its effects are well known. The large-hearted donor, in sizing up the situation probably had an idea that there would be those who, being used to the sedative Influences of the weed, would be unable to procure the same, and while others were attend ing the physical wants he would act the Samaritan’s part by supplying one of the superficial ones. Habitual users of to bacco never feel more destitute or for lorn than, when without the pipe or quid and the means wherewith to pro cure them. _ Every town, says the Rural Press, has a liar, a sponger, a smart alec, a blather skite, its richest man, some pretty girls, a weather prophet, a neighboring fued, half a dozen lunatics, a woman who tattles, a Justice of the peace, a man-who -knows-it-all, one Jacksonian democrat, more loafers than it needs, men who see every dog fight, a boy who cuts up in church, a few meddlesome old women, a “thing” that stares at women, a widower who is too gay for his age, a preacher who thinks he ought to run the town, a few who know how to run the affairs of the country, a grown young man who laughs every time he sees any thing, a girl who goes to the post-office every time the mail comes in, a legion of smart alecs who can tell the editors how to run his paper, scores of men with the caboose of their trowsers worn smooth as glass, a man who grins when you talk and laughs out loud after he has said some-thing. The other evening an old-time triend of oars requested the loan of our ears for a few moments. We gave him an audience and he said to us: “I like the fearless and independent style of The Frostier, but I fear you are at times a little too personal in your references to Mr. Kaulzman. While what you say is true in the abstract, yet every one knows it, and don’t you think you could ele vate the moral' tone of your paper by making mention of him less frequently?” We answered him that we believed even aa he bad spoken, but as a matter of jus tification told him further that since the early day when we first learned of the serpent in the garden of Eden we had bad an aversion tor all species of snakes and never missed an opportunity to in flict • lUtie torture.

Editors Frontier: Jealousy, dis sension and strife have existed aince the evolution of man, and co-existent there with has been a code of honor and mor als varying with the different degrees of civilization, At no time, however, since the existence of man, has there been a moral law so excellent or of so high a standard of honor as that evolved by the present orn. This disposition to be fair and honor able has grown and flourished to the ex tent that it has beoome one of the prin cipal factors in almost all business trans actions among the people of to-day; in fact, a special code exists for, and is rec ognized in every profession, trade or calling in present existence. It has be come absorbed in the very characters of our people to the extent that, should it by any manner of means become extinct, the collapse of our whole social and busi ness fabric would be the result. Journalists have a code peculiarly adapted to their profession whioh is uni versally exacted and almost exclusively followed by all members of the craft. There is an occasional one, however— though unworthy the name—who, pos sessing a low standard of morals ut attempts to prostitute the calling to a level therewith. The editor of the Beacon Light, In the last issue of hie paper took upon him self the odium of flagrantly transgress ing the laws of editorial etiquette and placing another foul blot upon the Journalistic escutcheon by abstracting paragraphs from two individual articles published iu Tnn Frontier, on separate dates, and reproducing them in a sense calculated to pervert their true meaning. In this manner and by such methods does the editor of the aforesaid sheet endeavor to raze and degrade the pro fession to a plane consistent with his own ideas. It is not surprising, how ever, to find him cnpable of such detest able meanness after a thorough investiga tion of the character weekly portrayed upon the pages of his paper. That the editors of Thb Frontier erred in their opinion in regard to the Hill affair is to be regretted; that they possessed the manhood to acknowledge the same and to refuse to defend the position assumed in regard thereto in a former issue, should be applauded. It is not a pleasant duty for a newspa per man to retract and masticate his own utterances, and those having the moral courage to do so should be universally accorded their full ipeasure of honor. There is but one way, in the opinion of the writer, to deal with a character like Kautzman, and that is to give him a liberal supply of rope. His own cupid ity will eventually lead him into a trap from which there is no avenue of escape when the wrgth occasioned by his dense stupidity will be expended upon himself and the result will be oblivion. An-Ex. Worth Trying. The following letter was received last week by Real Estate Agent Weekes from the Western Trust and Security Company, of Fremont. Hr. Weekes thinking it a matter that would interest our farmer readers kindly handed it to us for publication. It says; We beg to call your attention to a new forage plant called “sacaline,” which, from ail we can learn of it, is especially adapted to drouth districts, and it is quite probable would prove just the thing foi your farmers* The claims made for it are; That it is per fectly hardy, even in Siberia; stands also the greatest heat; requires no plow ing before planting; needs no cultiva tion, no manuring, no replanting; grows in poorest soil; also in wet lands and where no other plant will grow. Once planted, stands forever. The young shoots are eaten like asparagus. Stems and leaves, green or dry, greatly relished by sheep, cattle and horses. It is more nutritious than clover or lucerne; an excellent^ soil enricher. Grows 14 feet high by June; can be cut every month. Produces 90 to 180 tons of green forage per acre and the roots penetrate so deep into the soil that they cannot be des troyed, pulled up, or trampled out by cattle. L. L. May & Co., of St. Paul, Minn.', are offering to send a trial package 6f seed free to all persons requesting same for trial, with the provision that a re port is made to them in due time as to results. We would suggest that you get different reliable farmers in your locality to send for trial packages at once and Bee what can be done with it. Special gale For the next thirty days we will sell, regardless of their cash value, 200 pairs of gloves and mittens, 150 pairs felt boots, 50 suits of under wear for men, and boys, and a lot of other goods too numerous to mention. These goods must be sold to make room for our spring goods, which will arrive about the first of March. Call quick and get bar gains. These goods will be sold at half price for the next thirty days onlv at Sullivan’s Mercantile Co. P. J, Bigliu will furnish you all kinds •( Wil, ia carload lot* or fas emit quantities. Be eaa also famish yoa t—--rv Th* Week Id Court, * 'l Aa we went to presalast week tLecnae of the State of Nebraska vs. G. L. Bur ney, of Chamber*, war on trial. Sev eral wholeaale houaea were complaining witnesses. They charged Mr. Barney with having secreted a stock of goods with Intent to cheat and defraud! The case occupied Thursday, Friday kind Sat urday, going to the jury at 11 o’clock Saturday night. The jury deliberated until 1 o’olock Monday without arriving at a verdict, and aa there was no proba bility of an agreement they were dis charged. Ohaa. Moore vs. the City of O’Neill was the next case up. Mr. Moore sued for wagea earned,upon tbe atreeta under the regime of Street Oommisslner Dav idson. The city contended that Mr. Moore was to receive his pav in poll taxes collected', while Mr. Moore asserted that he was employed by the street com missioner to do the work and all he wanted was his salary. He wasn’t par ticular who put up the amount. He received judgment for 8B4.58. The case of the State against Harry Gillespie was called and dismissed upon motion of defendant. The point raised was that in the preliminary bearing the county court failed to find in fact that a crime had been committed. In refer ence to the decision Judge McOutchan says he followed the form laid down by Maxwell, and that if Maxwell Is wrong he is wrong. There appears to be a lit tle discrepancy between Maxwell and the statute. The same error was made in the hearing of the men arrested for the murder of Scott, although we are ■informed that the defense will not raise tbe point when tbe case comes on for trial. Gillespie’s discharge ia not a bar to another arrest, but up to the present the state has made no move In that direction. At this writing—Wednesday after noon—the oaae of the county against Hazlett is being tried. There ate two of these cases, both of which were tried a year ago, the county recovering Judg ment in each. The plaintiff filed a mo tion for new trial in one case and the defendant in both, the oourt granting the prayer of the plaintiff in one and the prader of the defendant in the other. Hr. Hazlet.has signified his willingness that the county should have Judgment for the difference between the amount charged and the amount turned over on sheriff’s certificates but he objects to the county getting judgment against him for bills filed by him and allowed by the county board. There are two of these cases, covering two terms, and as soon as the first is disposed of the sec ond will be for trial. Since the above was put in type both cases have been tried and a verdict for $3,581.57 given for the county. There are no new developments in the criminal cases. The Belief Bill. Following it the text'of the bill puacd ■by the Nebraska legislature, authorising counties to issue bonds for the purchase of seed grain and feed. Be it enacted by the legislature of the state of Nebraska: 8bc. 1. That the county board of any county of this state shall hare the authority to issue the bonds of. such county, to an amount not to exceed 5 per cent, of the assessed equation of the county for the year 1894, but not to ex ceed the sum of 850,000, for the purpose of raising money to procure seed to be planted during the year 1895, and feed for teams used in planting said seed.

If the people of any county in Nebraska shall be in a destitute and dependent condition on account of the failure of crops, from drought or other causes over which they have no control, a petition setting forth such fact, and stating the cause of the failure and the amount of funds which will be required to supply such people with seed and feed, signed by at least one fifth of the resident electors of such county, may be filed with the county clerk, praying the county board to call a special election to vote upon the question of issuing the bonds of said county to raise such funds. Whereupon said board shall call an elec tion as prayed for in said petition and the county clerk shall give notice of such election by publication in two con secutive issues of one or more weekly papers published and of general circula tion in such county, and by posting a notice at the polling places in each pre cinct, and if a majority of the votes legally cast at such election shall be in favor of the issuing of such bonds, then the county board shall issue the bonds of the county payable in ten years with the option of the county to pay the whole or any part thereof at the expira tion of 5 years from the date thereof, with interest at 7, per cent, per annua, payable annually.
