Sknatn' Course at tlie State llnlvtnltf.
The University of Nebraska has just
issned a very attractive pamphlet de
scriptive of the school of agriculture,
which every farmer should send for.
This course in Agriculture is altogether
the most complete, practical and com
mon tense thing of the kind that has
ever come under our observation. It is
something that no farmer's boy or girl
of any ambition can afford to misa
The people in charge of the school
realize the fact that most farmers' sons
and daughters cannot afford the time
and money required in the preparation
for and completion of a regular course,
but that in farming as in any other
business education and training pay.
Keeping this in view, they have pre
pared a short, practical coarse of three
months, beginning Dec. 29, 1890, and
ending March 19, 1897. It provides for
the following studies: boil tillage,
diseases of farm animals, stock breed
ing and judging, feeding cattle and
hogs, farm dairying, fruit raising and
'vegetable gardening, ‘Carpentry and
blacksmithing, domestic economy, etc.
Aa explanation given in the circulur
of the manner in which the instruction
is given shows that the student ob
tains much of it bjr actual practice and
observation. Not that he will be ex
pected to do the work of the farm with
which he is already familiar, but such
operations as judging stock, milk test
ing, improved methods of butter-mak
ing, tree grafting, treating sick ani
mals, eta

THAT PALMER AND BUCKNER
TRAVELED.
In lUiflHouri the Bryan Banner Is Flaunted
In Their Fares—At Paris* Payette and
Other Place*** Silver Men Hoot Them
Down—Gen. Buckner Uses Hot Lan
guage—Gen. Palmer Surprised.
Palmer and Buckner’s Experiences.
Paris, Mo., Oct. 31.—As Generals
Palmer and Buckner stood on the rear
platform of their ear here this morn
ing to speak for the gold standard, a
number ot young men pushed up with
a Bryan banner and flaunted it in the
faces of the generals. The disturbers
hooted for Bryan, whereat a number
of ex-Confederate soldiers cried to
General Buckner: "We are ashamed
of them.’’
General Palmer tried to speak, but
his words were drowned. “This is a
fine country,” he exclaimed. Anally,
“and if you want to argue your causes
this way you can do so with impunity.”
Fresh shouts of derision greeted.Gen
eral Palmer and the old soldier grew
indignant, while his eyes snapped.
“Let these fellows witn long ears
bray,” he exclaimed.
T. B Buckner of Kansas City tried
to quell the disturbance and Anally
General Palmer was able to say that
he simply wished to introduce General
Buckner.
General liuckner was cheered, but
the crowd set up renewed cheers of
“Look at the McKinley Aid Society!”
General Buckner pointed at the ban
ner and said: “Let me tell you who
and what constitute the McKinley Aid
society." Then referring’ to Missouri,
Illinois, Kentucky and Ohio, he said
that the free silver agitators were the
authors of the Democracy's ruin. “In
1892 on a sound money platform we
elected Grover Cleveland, but the last
elections in Missouri, in Illinois, in
Kentucky, in Ohio, were disastrous be
cause you. you sliouters with your
heresies, drove the party on to failure
and contempt. Hold up that banner.
There is the emblem of the McKinley
Aid society. Look at it.”
The banner was then dropped to the
ground. After hesitating some mo
ments, the taunting wolds of General
Buckner urged them to raise it again.
Mingled cries of “shame" and hoots
ensued.
General Buckner said: “All through
Iowa we were treated with great
courtesy. I did not believe that we
would be shown such disrespect in Mis
souri. i do not believe that it went
further than the few roughs.”
General Palmer said thul all through
the South he had not met with any
thing of the sort and was deeply sur
prised.
Hoonvii.i.k, Mo., Oct. 30.—At Fay
ette, a Bryan banner was advanced
with an American flag murked: "Fay
ette Democratic Club,” when Generan
Palmer and Buckner appeared, and the
hearers attempted to put the banner in
General Palmer’s face. A citizen
named Williams tried to urge ]>eace
and the gold men rallied and rushed
the Bryan banner back.
A man tried to p.uneh General Buck
ner with the flag pole aud Williams
seized it and the erowd rushed.upon
him and l>egan belaboring him. lie is
a Democrat.
The lighting went on under the eyes
of Mrs. Palmer and Mrs. Buckner.
The rioters tried to get at the generals
and strike them with their Bryan ban
ners. Scores of men fought* bitterly
around the car und the train had to
leave without a word from the candi
dates being heard.
Before the actual blows began to be
exchanged, dozens of citizens rushed
up and shook hands with the generals
and Pope Yeaman. who was to have
introduced them.
Most of the rioters were young men,
members of the Fayette Democratic
club. They wore high white hats with
Bryan's name inscribed thereon, aud
white badges. Most of them seemed to
belong to the well-to-do element. There
was no warning of the intentions of
the Fayette Democratic club.
Skdai.ia. Mo.. Oct. 30.—At Hannibal,
at Moberly and at Boonville the recep
tion of the generals was in murked
contrast to the disorders at Paris and
Fayette.
At nuonyillt* the boys from Kemper
college. in their gray uniforms,
marched up and formed a line, and
2.0(H) men anil women, most of them
Wearing yellow flowers and yellow
badges, greeted the generals’ with
cheers and listened carefully to Gen
eral Palmer's remarks. A beautiful
boqae. of yellow chrysanthemums was
handed to General Palmer.
At Pilot Grove, where the train only
stopped a moment, a crowd with a
Bryan banner was on liund to stop the
speaking.
At 1:30 o'clock a crowd of 5,000 met
the train at Sedalia. The crowd was
respectful, but cold, even under the
mastcrsul oratory of ex-Congressman
K. G. Frost of St. bonis, who intro
duced General Buckner. The Ken
tuckian made a speech of fifteen min
utes' duration, in which he attacked
the Brvan theories without mercy.
General Palmer followed with his
speech of warning.
At 3 o'clock the generals separated
and the general passenger agent of the
Missouri Pacific railroad took General
Palmer's partfr in charge for Kansas
City.
General Buckner told about the Paris
and Payette incidents and created a
sensation.

ETHEL SPRAGUE MARRIED.
The Yount Actress of Noted Family
liecomeg a Physician’s Wife,
Baltimobk, Md.. Oct. 31. — A San
Francisco dispatch announcing the
hasty marriage in that city of Dr.
Frank Donaldson and Ethel Chase
Sprague, the actress, daughter of Kate
Chase Sprague, did not surprise the
.Maryland friends of Dr. Donaldson. He
is the son of a Baltimore physician.
Upon his graduation from Harvard
he practiced lias profession for several
years in this city with success. In
early life he married Miss Nannie B.
McDonald, member of an old Virginia
family. They spent several years
abroad, but upon their return from
Europe Mrs. Donaldson procured a di
vorce from her husband. One of the
sisters of Dr. Donaldson three weeks
ago received a letter announcing that
he had accepted a professorship in one
of the medical colleges of San Fran
cisco. Prior to this he lived for some
months in New York city. He has
written several plays and was ouite a
noted amateur actor, though he was
never known to aspire to the profes
sional stage.
f It is understood that a secret mar
riage was contracted by the young peo
ple in July. The opposition of the
bride's mother and the fear that it
might injure her professional career
have been given as the reason why an
nouncement was not made at the time
of the marriage several months ago.
The discovery that the facts were
known is said to be responsible for the
| hurried religious ceremony performed
last evening. *

A REMARKABLE CASK.
ILL SINCE GIRLHOOD, NOW A j
PICTURE OF HEALTH. '*
From the Star, Valparaiso. Ind.
The attention of the Star having been- >
called to several cases of radical cures
effected by Dr. Williams’ Fink Fills for
Fale People, it was determined to in
vestigate some of the more notable of
these cases, with a view to disseminat
ing exact information on the subject
and benefiting others who were suffer
ing. Prominent among those who had
experienced benefits from the use of
this remedy was mentioned Mrs. Mary
Noren, wife of John Noren, a prosper
ous farmer, living northeast of Valpar
aiso, Ind.. and to her a reporter was
accordingly dispatched.
Mrs. Noren was found busily engaged
in household duties, but she found time
to detail her experience, and was willing
and even anxious that the benefits she
had felt should be.told for-the benefit :
of those who had suffered as she did.
“I had been ill since girlhood with a .
complication of complaints,” said Mrs
Noren, “never so much as to be confined,
long in bed, but I suffered intense mis
try. My chief trouble was with iny
stomach. I felt a constant gnawing
pain that was at times almost distract
ing, and which had been diagnosed by -
different physicians as dyspepsia and
sympathetic derangement dependent on
the condition of the generative organs.
J had pains iu the back, sometimes so
great as to make me unable to work,
and frequent bilious attacks. I also
suffered greatly from constipation, from .
which I never could find permanent re
lief. Then these symptoms were agra
vated by rheumatic pains between the -
shoulder blades, which were most ex
cruciating in damp or cold weather.
After my marriage about five years
ago, and when my baby was born the
trouble seemed to increase, and I was
frequently so sick that I could not do
my household work. I tried different
physicians and used numerous remedies.
but all in vain, until one day last fall I
happened to read of Dr. Williams Fink
l'ills for Pale People. My husband got
three boxes from Mr. C. D. Iiushton,
the druggist, and I began to use them.
From the first X began to feel relief,
and before the three boxes were gone,
I was nearly well. The constipation
was cured and the other troubles were
so much relieved that I felt better than
I had felt for years As I continued in
the use of the pills I grew better and
strong, my appetite was more natural,
and my flesh increased, until I atn in
the condition yon see me now. ”
Dr. Williams' Fink Pills contain, in
a condensed form, all the elements nec
essary to give new life and richness to
the blood and restore shattered nerves.

In the agricultural line, Texas leads
all other states in the variety of its
products. Cotton, corn, and the cereals
grow and are raised in every section of
the state and in the central and south
ern portions sugar cane and sorghum
ctAie are profitably cultivated. On the
(lulf Coast two or three crops of veg
etables are raised each year, berries
are shipped six weeks in advance of
the home crop in the north. Pears,
peaches, plums, oranges, figs, olives,
and nuts all grow abundantly and can
be marketed from two to three weeks
in advance of the California crops.
Large quantities of rice are now grown.
If the land seeker, the home seeker,
and the settler desires to secure a
farm larger than the one he occupies,
on vastly more reasonable terms; if ho
wants more land to cultivate, a greater
variety of crops to harvest, with pro
portionately increased remuneration,
at a less outlay for cost of production;
if he wants an earlier season, with
correspondingly higher prices; if lie
wants milder winter, all the year pas
turage for his stock, improved health,
increased bodily comforts and wealth,
and prosperity he should go to Texas.

HINTS FOR THE HOUSEHOLD.
In making a salad of fish, if you add
a little cucumber pickle, chopped very
fine, to the dish before the dressing is
poured over, you will greatly im
prove it.
In all lives there is a crisis in the
formation of character. It conies
from many causes, and from some
which on the surface are apparently
trivial, but the result Is the same—a
sudden revelation to ourselves of our
secret purposes, and a recognition at
our perhaps long shadowed but now
masterful convictions.
