The Nebraska state firemen are in Beesion at Fremont. They will name the time and place to hold the annual tournament. The defense of San Francinco is not as strong as it should be, but if war is declased with Chili, she need not fear an attack as the Chilians will be kept pretty busy around home. The patrons of the street railway of Chicago, want a law passed com pelling the street railway com panies to furnish seats for all pas sengers or else take no pay from those who have to stand up. The New York post office yielded a net revenue of $4,080,411 last year. This is attributable in large meas ure to the fact thit the post office is one of the liiir.ir in Kzx York that tammany does not control. Globe Democrat. G rover Cleveland has gone south to hunt alligators in the Florida swamps, and to fish for the southern democratic electoral vote for prebident and it is hoped he will have lots of sport even if he does not catch the vote. The two surpassing facts with re gard to the federal finances are that the public debt has been re duced $259,000,C0O during the pree ent administration, and that the people have gained $50,000,000 in the past year by reason of republican tariff reform. Globe-Democrat The war cloud still thickens and it looks now as if Chili would open the ball herself by opposing the passage of the White fleet, under command of Admiral Walker, through the Straits of Magellan. Admiral Walker has six vessels, but no torpedoes, and Chili has ent six vessels to the straits, one of which is the noted torpedo boat that blew up Blanco Encalada. THE JUS r CAUSE OF WAR. The Chicago Times is of the opinion that a war with Chili would cost a great deal of money, that it might extend over much 4i me, and that it would be unprofitable in re sults. As to its first proposition, the Times is quite right. War is a costly undertaking. As to its second proposition, it may be right; it is for no man to measure exactly the power of aa untried foe. As to its third proposition, it is wholly wrong. The one priceless posses sion of a nation is its honor; this would be maintained, even if the event of war were against us. The mau who strives to vindicate the honor of his mother ut the peril of his life is honorable, even if he lose his life in the attempt. Be who . j does not strive to vindicate the honor of his mother is base, t'ougi he should save millions of dollars and his life by his cowardice. "The republic," said Cicero, "is the mother of us all," and this clause of the Roman creed is part of the faith of America. It is to be hoped that there will be no war. Chili has not a foot of land that this republic covete, has not a dollar of which this country would despoil it, has not a vessel that this nation desires to capture. That Chili may grow rich and popu lous, that it may enjoy n stable government, nnd that schools and newspapers may multiply within its borders is the wiHh oi the people of the United States. But since certain seamen of the United Slates have been maimed and have died on account of in juries inflicted by a Chilian mob, of which uniformed officials of that republic were part, apology to this nation and recompense to its maimed citizens and to the families of its slain ones is due. It is a due that can not go unenforced witLout loss of the national honor, and, whether the Times believes it or no, that is held by most Americana to be the thing that must be preserved at all costa and at all hazards. Indeed, the preservation of national honor has come to be considered aa alinoHt the only just cause of war. Inter Ocean. . RAILWAY EMPLOYES. It id estimated from the most re :ent report of the statistician to the interstate commerce com m in sion that the total number of men employed on the railways of the United States during the year end ing June 30, 1890, was 649,301, being an increase over the number em ployed the previous year of 44,558. This increase is at the rate of 708 new men for each 100 miles of new line brought into operation. It raises the average employment on railways in the United States from 459 per hundred miles of line in 1889 to. 479 men per 100 miles in 1890, being 'an inciease of twenty men per hundred miles of line.

No healthy person need fear any dangerous consequences from an attack of la grippe if properly treated. It is much the same as a severe cold and requires precisely the Bame treatment Remain quiet ly at home and take Chamberlain's Cough Kemedy as directed for a se vere cold and a prompt and com- plete recovery is sure to follow. This remedy also counteracts any tendency of la irrippe to result in pneumonia. Among the many thousands who have used it during the epidemics of the past two years we nave yet to learn ot a single case that lias not recovered or that has resulted in pneumonia. 23 and ou cent bottles for sale by F.

A few evenings ago Col. E. A. Denicke entertained at dinrior Capt. French, s Philadelphia hanker and so officer of lbs Signal Corps during the war. Anionic the other guests were some member of the local corps and Col. John S. Musbj-, the well-known guerilla rliieftain. Capt. French has contributed a number of articles to the Century and other tnnirii zincs re lHlin to his escape from Lihlir Prison, and at the (I inner-table he narrated an incident wbicli has not yet been pub lished. We were attnclicd to Sherman's army." said Capt. French, "and as we were murcliiiig toward Giiiyxburn I was di'lailuil In rcconimiter with another man. We passed a fn tin-liou-e. hut nfiei wnrils returned to t'e place to ask for a drink of water. The house was witMn the Union lines, and a jrroup of officer was standing in front, liefore we had an opportunity of speak ins? a woman informed us ttial our din ner was ready, and although we were considerably surprised al this, we had do objection in those days to eat a din ner which whs obviously designed for some one else. "As we left the house a man in civilian dress ordered me to throw op niv hands and surrender. As I was within Union lines niv first thought wss that some soldier was pi living a practical joke upon me, and 1 cureless ly Ignored it, hut when the nuin em phasized his order by pointing an nglr looking gun cloH to my lieml, I con side red it wise to obey. The upshot of that adventure was mv continenieut in Ubby Prison. I don't know who my captor was. hut the uccurreuca was ou tbe lC:h of" Capl. French wan interrupted by Col. Mosliv. "You are niistiikon as to the date," said the latter, "it wna on the 17th. and, by the way, you pnibn li ly do not know that you were almost a (fend man Hint day. When 1 pointed the gun at you 1 was wiggling the trig ger, but somuiiow it did not work smoothly and your surrender prevented its discharge." 'Were you my captorP" asked Capt French in surprise. "1 heurd after ward thai he w as one of Mushy' men." "I wss the num." was Col. Mosby's gritu reply. &ut Fnuir.mco CulL HIS APPETITE. Th Voracity or that Grow nf Boy After Rchol Hmr.
