C. A. McCloud, one of the examiners
appointed by the state auditor to check
up the offices of county treasurers, has
made a report of his examination of the
accounts of the Adams county treasury.
This examination, so far as it related
to the time covered by the incumbency
of C. 11. Paulas county treasurer, shows
that the county owes the state 88,453.88
more than has been heretofore re
ported. The years covered by this
shortage are 1887 to 18U0 inclusive.

Charles Atwine of Pierce has got
himself in trouble He settled there
about ten years ago, married and be
came the father of three children, and
was highly respected by the citizens of
that place. A short lirao ago he re
ceived a letter from the wife he had de
serted in Minnesota in 1881, and fear
ing trouble concluded to leave. He
now writes to the fierce wife that he
is tired of life and will kill himself. He
married the first wife under the name
of Ahlgrin and has seven children by
her.
A few days ago, while plowing for
corn on the Cal Nordyke farm in Pig
eon Creek township, Koone county, and
on top of one of the highest blulfs, the
bones of three monstrous skeletons
were unearthed. One of them meas
ured nearly eight feet in length, while
the other two were not quite as long.
Some of the bones crumbled ns soon as
exposed to the air, but the skulls nnd
jaw bones were perfect, showing full
sets of teeth. It is probable that these
bodies were buried there long before
tho country was settled.
Hekt Blchanan, an all round tough,
of Nemaha, is lying at the point of
death with a bullet in his chest as a re

drunk and abusing John E. Crather.
lie went to Vrather's house and at
tempted to break in the door with an
ax, when Crather shot him. The bullet
entered juBt ubove the heart, inflicting
what is supposed to be a fatal wound.
No blame is attached to Crather, as Bu
chanan is a bad man when drunk.
Governor Holcomb heard further tes
timony last week in the asylum contro
versy. Superintendent Hay, who pro
tests against the governor’s right to
remove him without cause, produced
witnesses who denied statements of
discharged employes set up in affida
vits on which Governor Holcomb’s
charges of mismanagement are based.
Hay took the stand in his own defense,
denying statements made in affidavits
presented by Dr. Abbott, the govern
or's appointee. Dr. Hay presented
statements refuting the charge of ex
travagance. His statements show that
the Lincoln hospital for the insane is
maintained at less per capita than six
teen asylums in other states.
One of the counterfeit dimes has
made its appearance in the office of the
register of deeds at Omaha. It was
taken back to that office by the collec
tor for the Nebraska National bank,
the bank having refused to accept it.
It is easily distinguishable as a coun
terfeit, being light in weight and of a
different color from the real article.
The letters are coarse, their edges be
ing rough and uneven. In the wreath
which encircles the wr.riis “one Hiinn ”
immediately under the letter E in
dime, is a blotch of metal, probably
having been made by a defect in the
die. The milling on the edges of the
coin is irregular, and does not quite
reach the outer edge of the coin on one
face, while on the other it overreaches
and cuts into the reverse side of the
coin. It is of the issue of 18U1.
R. A. Reese, editor of the Kearney
Journal and for some time city asses
or, is in trouble. Several weeks ago
County Clerk llormel gave him access
to old county warrants that had never
been called for or paid, for the pur
pose of publishing the list. Since then
the old warrants have been presented
to the county treasurer and paid until
they now aggregate $2t50. l-ast week
one of these advertised warrants
was called for, and the clerk not
finding it, ascertained that it. had been
paid by the treasurer a short time ago.
The clerk’s suspicions were aroused,
and an investigation showed that the
old warrants recently paid had been
stamped with a false seal and many of
them had not been receipted for on the
warrant book stuK Others had been
receipted for by Mr. Reese on orders,
and as the clerk had reason to believe
the orders were forgerien he had Mr.
Reese arrested for forgery and grand
larceny. hater new interest was
awakeded by the discovery that several
of the warrants bad been raised, one
from SI to $40, another from $2 to $12,
and so on, making an aggregate of over
$90. Mr. Reese was re-arrested but
plead not guilty and was bound over.
Oxe of the saddest events in the his
tory of Wayne occurred last week and
shocked the citizens more than any
other that ever happened. R. P. Hil
lee, a respected citizen and prominent
lumber dealer, ascended to the loft of
his barn to throw some hay down to
his horses and found the body of hia
son. Louis T. suspended between the
roof and the hay loft floor, he having
committed suicide. For a number of
months tbe young man has been in ill
health and had become despondent
and it is thought that while laboring
under a temporary aberration of the
mind he committed the act.

the schools. It condemns the giving to
sjetertan Institutions any pprt yt thy
public moneys find declares for the tax
ation of all property not owned by the
government. Ie demands a restriction
of Immigration, a change In the natural
isation laws to make seven years resi
dence a necessary condition of citizen

out of the Operators’ Association and
threw his mine open, giving employment
to 250 idle miners. He settled with his

Gresham Not to Resign.
Washington, May 13.—Politicians hert
do not regard favorably the story that
Don. M. Dickinson Is slated to suc
ceed Secretary Gresham at the head of
the state department. A story was cir

men.

DELUGE AT HERMANVILLE, MISS.
Torrent Rashes Through the City Streets
—Great Damage Done.
Hermanville, Miss., May 13.—The
cloudburst at this place Thursday did
great damage to property, hut no lives
were lost. The downpour of rain was
terrific, rapidly filling and overflowing
all streams In the neighborhoor. The
town and surorundlng country were a
sea of surging water. Fences, out
houses, etc., were swept from their
foundations, and through the main
street of the town rushed a raging
river five feet In depth. It overflowed
many houses, sweeping over the ground
floor, and the stock which could not be
got up In time had to swim to places of
safety. Men had to give up the task of
rescue, as the water soon rose above
their heads. The people sought safety
in second stories. Wires are all down,
heavy trees having fallen across them.
May Raise a Loan of 9900,000,000.
Paris, May 13.—M. Hanotaux. minis
ter of foreign affairs, has invited the
leading financiers to meet to consider
the Impending Chinese loan, the ways
in which the bourse might co-operate,
and the conditions on which French
capital might participate. It will not
be surprising if the loan reaches £180,
000,000 ($900,000,000). The powers, while
discussing so important a financial op
eration, will not arrive at a decision
without consulting London, without
co-operation such an enterprise could
not be taken.

VICTIM OP A CONSPIRACY.
Got. Blown Claim. ■ Plot Wu Laid M
KIU Hi. Bon.
Louisville, Ky., May 9.—The Courier*.
Journal prints the following: “The
sensation attending the Qordon double
killing is not over by half. The prose
cution will attempt to prove that Arch
Dixon Brown's death was due to a plot
to assassinate him. Governor Brown
has reason to believe that the facts of
his son'-i coming to Louisville on the
day of the tragedy and his meeting with
Mrs. Gordon were known to a man in
Frankfort, who telegraphed to a man
in Louisville. This Louisville man, the
prosecution claims, notified Gordon that
.its wife was to meet Brown and ‘active
ly assisted in a foul assassination.’ Mr.
James A. Scott, the Frankfort attorney
employed by Governor Brown to prose
cute the case, said:
"I want to say that Governor Brown
never authorized any statement
that he would not prosecute
the case nor did he ever dream of grant
ing a pardon to Gordon, as has been
stated. Before deciding on the step
Governor Brown took counsel with a
number of intimate friends from all
over the state. He came to the conclu
sion that It was due the memory of his
son that there should be a full and fair
Investigation of all the facts. He was
convinced that Gordon must have
known that his wife was dissipated,
reckless and imprudent. Governor
Brown and his counsel would shrink
from any attack on Mrs. Gordon’s char
acter, but would prefer to throw the veil
of charity over all her acts, especially
as she is dead. The future will deter1
mine whether it will be necessary to
further blacken the character of Mrs.
Gordon in order to show the defend
ant's thorough knowledge of It. I think
the developments will be surprising to
some people.”
CHINA IN NEED OP FUNDS.
Asks Russia and France to Advance a
Large Loan.
London, May 9.—A dispatch from
Shanghai says the Chinese emperor has
written to the czar and President Faure
asking for financial assistance to meet
war expenses and promising to grant
special commercial advantages to Rus
sia and France in return therefor.
A dispatch from St. Petersburg to the
Times says that the Russian govern
ment is satisfied with Japan’s reply to
the protest of the powers and regards
the incident thus far closed. Russia is
evidently glad to get out of a very awk
ward position without haggling as to
the particular form of language in
which Japan agrees to refrain from an
nexing the Liau Tong peninsula. The
Russian military preparations in the
far east have been suspended in accord
ance with the orders from the war office.
