Cass county has paid out as a bounty
for wolf scalps since the first of January
of this year, the sum of $186. As the
price is $3 apiece that amount would
show the destruction of 62 wolyes. At
the present rate the county ought to be
soon rid of these pests, though we have
heard it hinted that some people raise
them in order to get the bounty.
A passenger conductor and a Mr. R., a

The Lincoln Journal says the Rock

position from the Burlington folks for
running from Omaha to Lincoln on the

eighty feet west of their right of way at
Greenwood
Nebraska City's Bridge.
Nebraska City, Neb., April 30.
Special to World-Herald Word has
been received from Lincoln that the su
preme court issued the mandamus prayed
for to compel the county commissioners
to issue a call for a special election to
vote for or against f 100,000 bonds to aid
jq the construction of a wagon bridge
across the Missouri at this city. The
court held, however, that the precinct
could not issue to exceed 10 per cent of
its assessed valuation. The precinct is
heavily bonded, and the proposed $100,
000 would exceed the limit. If the
election is called it will lie $79,000 and
the city will be asked to vote the balance.
In the meantime, propositions from dif
ferent bridge companies are being re
Cfived, and a meeting of the organization
will be held Monday evening und the
matter thoroughly discussed.

Chicago, May 1. The committees
cho: en by the Carpenters' council and
the New Bosses' association met yester
day afternoon and agreed ujion tho
third nnijiie Julge McConnell who,
with Judges Tulev and Briggs, and the

L'tiicuK" Iron Worker.
Chicago, May 1. While the molders,
as a body, are in favor of a shorter
working day. they will take no united
action on the subject, owing to the fact
that a large number of their men are
tied up by contract?-. The men employed
in the tdiops of R. T. Crane & Co., and
the men in the malleable iron works on
Blue Island avenue have demanded
tight hours and an advance of 10 per
cent, in wages. It is exacted that their
example will be followed by the forces
at McCormick's, French's car shops, and
other extensive establishments.
The C'liloujro Pocking llouae Strike Off.
CmcAHO, May 1. At a meeting of
packing house laborers lat night the
prospective strike at the stock yards was
practicality declared off. This action is
tsnid to be in accordance with the wish
of the American Federation of LalKr,
who vrant to settle the carpenters' fight
liefore another is inaugurated. The de
cision seamed to meet with satisfaction
on the pari of a majority of the work
men. The failure of this movement
practically prits an end to the general
movement and greatly reduces the
chances of impenuing trouble.
Th Boston Carpenter.
Boston, Mass., May 1. The three car
penters unions of Boston held a mass
meeting last night for final action on the
strike question, and the committee on
arbitration having rejiorted the failure
of all their efforts, it was unanimously
voted that all men employed by firms
which liave conceded eight hours go to
work as usual to-day, but that all those
employed by the Master Builders" asso
ciation should- stay out. It was stated
as probable that all non-union men
would also quit work. The men are
cor J. -dent of success, and say they will
have the aid of the American United
Brotherhood of Carpenters, the Amal
gamated Society or Carpenters and
Joiners of the World, and the American
Federation of Labor.
Kuluth Coal Durk Laborers.
Dulutii, Minn., May 1. All the coal
dock laborers here went out on a strike.
They were induced to go out by agita
tors from West Superior, where the dock
laborers struck two days ago. About
200 men on the northwestern dock quit
without notifying the company of dis
satisfaction, and they were followed by
forty Pioneer dock hands. They have
leeii getting 40 cents an hour and de
maud 50 cents. The companies refuse
to meet the advance and claim to have
double the applications for work that
there are situations.
The Iluilrotul Ou-st ioii Settled.
Pitts uitru. May 1. The supreme coun
cil of the Federated Order of Railway
Employes held a final meeting and de-cidc-d
to accept the propositions of the
dilurent railroad companies centering
in this city made to their yard employes,
which is 24 cents an hour for day con
ductors and 25 cents for night, and 18
cents an hour for day brakemen and 19
cents for night brakenien. This is quite
an advance over former wages for this
locality. Both sides look on the settle
ment as a victory.
The Luster.
Boston, May 1. The Lasters' Pro
tective union convention met here, with
131 representatives of sixty-nine branches
of the union present. Business in nearly
every shoe centre of the country was re
lorted good. Edward McSweeny was
elected president.

Boston, May 1. The longshoremen
on Grand Junction wharf have refused
to handle a quantity of bacon from tha
packing house of John P. Squires & Co.,
for shipment to Antwerp by steamer De
Ruyter. on the plea that it is prepared
by non-union labor.
Philapelphia Carpenter.
Philadelphia, May 1. At a large
and enthusiastic meeting of union car
penters last night the determination to

shows that pain is not necessary in child
birth, but results from causes easily un

er without suffering any pain whateyer.
it also tells how to overcome and prevent
morning sickness and the many other evils
attending pregnancy. It is highly en
dorsed by physicians everywhere as the
wife's true private companion. Cut this
out: it will save you great pain, and pos
sibly your life. Seod two cent stamp for
