Nebraska in Illinois.
The special correspondent for
tliu Hee writes as follows regard
t'rtg the attention paid the train in
Illinois:
"PKOKIA, 111., Oct. 10-The Ne
braska special advertising train
nowenroute, made its first slop for
exhibition at this city, 'where it ar
rived at 7:15 this morning. The
trip from Omaha to Peoria was al
together uneventful, with the ex-
cention of a stop of ten minutes at
Plattsmouth to receive a portion of
ihe Cass county exhibit. A crowd
of 400 had assemble at the Platts
niouth depot, but had to content
themselves with worshipping afar
off, as the cars were not opened.
The train stopped at Red Oak for
upper. The run from Red Oak to
Creston was made at exactly the
rate of a mile a minute. A great
number of people have visited the
train here and all express unquali
fied surprise and admiration over
the great variety and high quality
of the Nebraska products which
Xre exhibited.
"At Mendota a stop of three hours
will be made. Sunday will be spent

ain was visited at t'eoria uy tuny
2,500 people prior to its departure
at 1 o'clock this afternoon, and
when the hour of departure came
there was a large crowd assembled
who had been unable to gain ad
mission. The train reached Gales
burg at 3:30 this afternoon and was
immediately surrounded by seve-
ill hundred person gathered at
"the depot. All told, nearly or quite
g, 9,000 people have passed through
the train to-day, inspected the ex-
hibits and express their praise and
wonder in no measured terms. The
members of the board and of the
entire party are using every effort
to impress visitors with the high
character of the exhibit and are
greatly pleased with the results of
their labors. The surprise at the
real character of the products ex
hibited is no greater than the sur
prise evidenced on all sides that
the much circulated calamity and
starvation stories could ever have
obtained credence. The train will
remain ia Galesburg until 8 a. ni.
to-inorrow."
District Court.
The case of Kowe vs. Smith, on a
charge ofassault and battery was
tried this morning. The prosecu
. .tion was conducted by County At
itorney Travis, and Sullivan and
'Gering defended. Our readers will
doubtless remember that Tni:
II E KALI) gave a full account of the
circumstances some time since, in
which it appeared that Smith two
assistants unmercifully and with
out sufficient provocation beat
Kowe over the head. The Jury is
Astill out
f As we go to press a case, State vs.
Smith, that was appealed from
Justice Martin's court of Union, is
being tried. The defendant is
charged with using obscene lan
guage in the presence of ladies. A
verdict will probably be rendered
this evening.
LATER: The prisoner his been
discharged.
October Weather.
Prof. Hicks, the weather prophet,
has the storms down fortius month
as follows:
Storms originating in September
will reach their crisis Oct. 'J. A
smart dash of early winter will ap
pear on the heels of these storms.
Kquinox of Venn on the 7th will
greatly intensify reactionary dis
turbances on the nth and 7th. The
10th to Uth will call for dangerous
storms, especially on the lakes.
The most concrned please note this
fact. Cold and freezing will follow
to the not th until higher tempera
tuie on the 17th and 18th reacts in
to secondary storms. From the 22(1
to the J'lth is a period in which
Vulcan, Mercury, Venus and Moon
will combine their disturbing
forces. Lake and sea navigators
ought to be watchful of such indi
cations. Snow in extreme north
and west, with sleet. Reactionary
storms about '.28th. followed by
frosty close.
A Novel Idea
We have received a very unique1.
and attractive souvenir, which
reads on one side "compliments of
the Michigan Stove Company," and
upon the other side, "This is a
sample of aluminum which is
mixed with the iron from which
Garland stoves and ranges are
made." If this material can be used
effectually as is claimed, it will
doubtless be a geat improvement
owing to its light weight and its
strength, being three times lighter
than steel and much stronger.
The stoves are sold by leading deal
ers everywhere.
The lime Extended.
Owing to the success of the Sioux
City Com Palace exposition the
authorites have concluded to ex
tend the time of the exhibit from
the 17th to the 2.rth. The P.. A M.
will continue to sell tickets at one
and one-third fare for the' round
trip good to return on the 20th.

The White House Stables
The American people are always
interested in everything that per
tains to the White House. We are
reliably informed that the stables
contain a full assortment of dilfer
drugs and medicines and they also
(so tin' head groom says) keep a hot
tie of Haller's Barb Wire Liniment
which is the most successful lini
ment they have ever used.
When the hair shows signs of
falling, begin at once to use Ayer's
Hair Vigor. This preparation
strengthens the scalp, promotes the
growth of new hair, restores the
natural color to gray and faded
hair, and renders it soft, pliant, and
glossy.
