This is a most glorious year for the republicans, as the president, Allen G. Thurm.in and George G. Vest are furnish ing valuable campaign literature for the republicans. Gov. Hill is as good as his party, is what the democratic newspapers are say ing. Wc won't dispute it, for no sane person is contending this year that the democratic party is one of the choisest products of our civilization. Had G. M. Lambertson been a candi date for congressman backed by the Lancaster delegation he would have had hearty support from Ca-s county, haying defined his position in the late conven tion that ambitious gentleman will prob ably see the day when he will yearn for ('ass couuty support. Judge Allen W. Field has already had cause to know what Cass county support is worth. The Cass county delegation returned from Lincoln this morning in fine feather and as jolly as though they had brought home with them the congressional nomi nation. Judge Chapman expressed him self as pleaded with the nomination and especially with the manner in which his sturdy delegation from Cass acquitted themselves and also with the manner in which the convention wr.s conduced. There is no doubt but Mr. Chapman would have been the nominee of the convention had the Lancaster delegation done what was expucted and what that delegation unqu'stionably should have done. Now for the democratic conven tion and then the jury of sovereigns in November. The delegates of the eighth representa tive district of Nebraska will meet in convention at AVoeping "Water, Neb., September 26tb, 1883, at 7 p. m., for the purpose of placing in nomination a can didate for said representative district, and for the transaction of such other business as may come before the conven tion. The counties are entitled to repreaenta- tion as follows: Cass county, sixteen; ' Otoe county, twelve. Milton D. Polk, Ch'm., Cass Co. Rep. Cen. Com. J. R. McKee, Ch'm., Otoe Co. Rep. Cen.

All men belonging to that or ganization who believe in destroying the protective features of the tariff should ca9t their ballots for Cleveland and Thur : roan. . Ia fact, every citizen iu the coun ' try, no matter what his party affiliations have been heretofore,- who thinks "HSut free trade would bo a good thing, for the United States should array himself under the democratic standard. And carrying .this reasoning kstep farther, every" pro hibitionist and labtfr man who believes that the protective system is a benefit to the country should join the republicans. "There is no need for auy more than two parties in this campaign. It is the tariff, and not temperance, or woman suffrage, which is tbts -absorbing issue of the canvass. The questman of the pro hibition of the liquor traffic and the - ..;nsion of ' 1-8 1 ...t ire of interest to thous- I lul.Iligent persona. The tariff fiesiion, however, hat a far more direct and practical bearing upon the commu nity than cither of those. It affects the interests of everybody. For every one person who has eyen the remotest concern for prohibition and woman suffrage one hundred hayc a vital and abiding interest in the tariff. In many presidental years in the past there would have been some excuse for the minor pol'tical organizations. There is no excuse whatever this year. When there is an absence of issues which appeal with overwhelming force either to the conscience or the pocket of the people party discipline and party coherency be come relaxed and the smaller concerns assert themselves. Slavery was an issue of the class first named, and the tariff is an issue of the other class. All other political aspirations and "reforms" sunk into insignificance a third of a century ago in comparison with the slavery ques tion, as the tariff dwarf ever' other question of national import today. The one issue of commanding importance this year is the tariff, and every vo'cr should join one or other of the two great political organizations according to his attitule toward this issue. Globe Demo crat. WII Y 2IONDA Y t Where so much depends upon order and accuracy in the management of the housekeeper, it is not always easy to pro portion the work of each day, Too much is thrown upon Monday aud Tuesday,--why not postpone washing till the latter day? On Monday the house can be put to rights, bread baked and deserts made for that day and the next. That night the t iblc may be laid and covered with netting used for this purpose alone, the clothing put in soak and all the material made ready for breakfast. Where there is but one domestic or none at all, the week's labor is thus under much better control. The first meal should consist of few dishes, and the dinuer may all be previously cooked save the vegetables. The domestic, who swept hall, steps aud piuzz-i while the tire was kindling, has only to remove the breakfast thing--, wash the dishes and go to her laundry work. On Wednesday she ia not over-fatigued by the previous day's work, and there is time enough to keep the house clean dur ing tlTe remainder of the week, finishing up odd jobs on Wednesday. AVhere two or more girls are kept the same custom might well prevail, by which means the cook will be able to do all the cooking, so that the food may be as nicely served as usual. Hester M. Poole, inThellome Maker. REST. fclsBCrt, slocptnpt on a waste of ocean; S(iut!ttvu, westward trailetb a red sireak; One v. i:ite mu oird. poLsetl with scarce a motion, Cls-iil'-ngcs the stillness with a shriek: Ciuii!i'::xea the stillness, upward wheeling, V.'here some rocky peak containeth her rude pest, Whllj the shadows o'er the water they come tlealin? As t ln-y whisper to the silence: "There is rest!" Down :vhere the broad Zambesi river Cii-U ii away Into some shadowy lagoon. Lies tho antelope, and hears the leaflets quiver, tiuil.-.'n by the sultry breath of noon; Sees tiia water rippla in its flowing. Feels the atmosphere with fragrance all op-p:-est, Dreams his dreams, but the sweetest is the know ing That above Mm and around him there Is rest. Centuries have faded into shadow; Earth is fertile with the dust of man 8 decay; Pilgrims all men were to some bright El Dorado, Eut they wearied and they fainted by the way. Borne were sick with the surfeiture of pleasure; Borne were bowed beneath a care encumbered breast; But, In turn, they all trod life's stately measure. And all paused betimes to wonder: 'Is there rest?" Look. O man! to that limitless hereafter, When thy anguish shall be lifted from its dust: When thy weeping shall be melted, into daughter. And thy love shall bo severed from its lust; When thy soul shall be sanctified with seeing The ultimate dun Thule of the Blest, And the passion haunted fever of thy being Shall be drifted in a universe of rest I Percy Somers Payne. A Lesson in Art Criticism. At one of the elegant homes of the city there is a daughter who is quite an artist. Recently a gentleman called who prides him self upon being an art critic, "O, did you know we have just purchased ono of Frederic Leighton's pictures, Mr. Adelbertf asked the young girL "Do come out and see it," leading the way. It repre sented a deserted wharf, with a young girl, her draperies blown by the wind, looking out over a rough sea. Mr. Adelbert was charmed. "Such color I Such a curve of the arms! Such poise and grace in tho figure! In Sir Frederic's best vein. Believe me, you have a pem iu this picture." Tho young lady's mother was alarmed. She could not permit such deception. "Why, Gladys painted that herself, Mr. Adelbert. She ij just teasing you for flattery." Exit Mr. Adelbert with a queer look on bis face and with Miss Gladys biting her lips to hide tho dimples that came from the laugh bubbling up from her very toes. Half the art critics are just like that, too. So much in a name. An artist does one thing grandly. Then he can sell daubs forever after on repu tation. An author gives us one good book. The rest may all be trash, but nobody knows it. Tho ways of this critical, ignorant, fawn ing world are, indeed, past finding out. Carrie M. Ogilvie in Arkansaw Traveler. Pathos of tb ll amorous. "There goes my vacation I" exclaimed s Norwich working woman the other day, but no one saw it go or could comprehend the meaning of the remark until she took her plate of false teeth from her mouth in two Lkces. With working people vacations hold y a very slender thread. Norwich Bul- DETAILS OF THE PROCESS OF DE SIGNING AND MANUFACTURING. A Great Variety of Colors Applied by Means of Illocks of Cherry 'Wood Fans for Gentlemen of Taste Tho Fan's Mavny Uses Etiquette. Among the scenes of unique interest which arrest the eye of the traveler in Japan on finds one's self well repaid for a visit to tho fan makers. Few of thoto who visit the curios shops to purchase these gaudy trifles have any idea of the meaning of their pict uresque designs or the method by which they are made. Yet this handicraft does really more to advertise Japan than any other manufacture. Fans are made by thousands of independent laborers, centralized capital and labor for the manufacture of works of art and handicraft being as yet little known in Japan. The principal workers in this trade are found in Tokio, Kioto, Nagoya and Fukui. We have have watched the operation from beginning to end the splitting of bamboo, tho cutting and pasting of delicate rice paper by the girls, the artistic, dainty picturing, the finishing and packing. They are some times inscribed with classic quotations, poetry, statistical tables, almanac lore, maps, pictures of noted places and congratulations. Often these are made to depict life, customs, architecture in Europe, or even Yokohama, that city being tho immediate link between the Japanese and foreigners. Thus are the fans iu the household, of which there are many, made to educate the family. The design for tho pictures on an ordinary flat fan is first drawn on thin paper, then pasted on a block of cherry wood and en graved ; afterward printed from this by lay ing tho fan paper on the block and pressing smoothly. Japanese books have been printed in this way for centuries prior to the late changes in the empire. The variety of colors are put on with not infrequently as many as twenty blocks. Often the picture papers have the choicest of perfumes laid between them before being pasted on the frame, then finished with ivory handles, inlaid and gold Lacquered. FOB GENTLEMEN OP TASTE. Gentlemen of luxurious tastes have large collections 'of these refreshing trifles, with autograph inscriptions and pictures from celebrated artists. A very dainty custom in vogue is to exchange fans as we do photo graphs. We, as foreigners, are supposed to do things upside down. In this country the large, flat fans are for the use of gentlemen, but in Japan it would be a dire breach of etiquette, as these are used exclusively by women. The gentleman always carries a folding fan in his girdle or bosom, usually elegantly decorated. If he is a scholar or author, when he invites his literary friends to his house they must go prepared to in scribe this dainty bit of refreshment offered them on arrival. A rack of silver hooks, or a tubular fan holder is found in every house of tho least pretention. Japan uses the fan for a great variety of purposes; xnado of stout paper to winnow grain, for dust pans and charcoal fire blow ers; of waterproof paper for dipping in water and as a vaporizer, for producing ex tra coolness to the face. There are double winged fans for the juggler, who makes a butterfly of paper flutter up the edge of a sword, for the judges at wrestling matches and for the dancing girl, who makes her fan a part of her own graceful motion and classic pose. In charming grace of manner the Japanese aro unequaled, and secret though decorous love is often expressed in artistic use of the fan till consummated by openly avowed attachment. As tokens of good feeling and polite atten tion Americans ore not infrequently the re cipients of costly fans from their Japanese friends. On a certain special occasion, ac companying an invitation to dinner, tied with daintiest silk corn on perfumed paper, was a tray of confections and sponge cake in a lacquered box of exquisite make and a case of three rare, painted fans, each tiod in silk napkins. On leaving the empire, a family with whom delightful relations had been estab lished, sent as a parting gift a beautiful gold lacquered cabinet, in one of the drawers of which was found a number of perfumed fans of elegant manufacture, which will be lifelong keepsakes in memory of the testhetio Japanese. Helen II. S. Thompson in Good Housekeeping. Russia's Stalwart Soldiers. The Cossacks are closely connected with Muscovite history. They conquered Siberia and kept the Turks in check in the south; they crossed the St. Gothard under SouvaroiT and entered Paris with Platoff ; they excited the admiration of Napoleon I, and later on, in the last war, they crossed tho Balkans, led by Gen. Gourko, and performed wonders of valor and recklessness. As a reward for their glorious services this heroic population enjoys special privileges. In 1S70 the Cos sacks were declared proprietors of the lands they had cultivated and the ''Black Coun try" became their fatherland. The Cossack is a soldier at 17 and wears the uniform till he is 50. He is ever in readiness to obey any order, to start as an escort on a reconnois sance or as the bearer of dispatches. When he returns to his home he tills the land, raises cattle, breeds horses, works salt mines, or fishes. The steppes of the Don are the hunter's Eldorado. Stalwart, strong, active and abstemious, the only exception to the Cossack's frugality is bis inordinate passion for the alcohol he calls vodki, of which he imbibes enormous quantities. Their Cossack capital. Novo Tcherkask, situated at the entrance of a broad, deep valley, resembles a chess board with straight avenues intersecting it of such unusual width that whole regiments can easily maneuver between the rows of houses. Tho nobility entertain during the winter, and even the modern improvements of tram cars and telephones have been introduced. Tho country is a mine of glory, wealth and power for Russia, and the Cossacks are her best soldiers. The Emperor A!exander draws all his cavalry from the territory of the Ukraine.

I, alone, on day In Jnne, was fishing on the banks of the bayou Yucatan, under the shad of an oak, In north Louisiana, having left my sailboat several hundred yards from me, ia order to escape tbe hot sun. I bad hardly seated myself conveniently when a dark object was seen approaching on the surface of the water. At first I thought It was an alligator, but on closer observation discovered it to be an enormous creeping ser pent. When this huge monster was within a few yards of tbe spot where I was seated I gathered some stones about the size of goose eggs and struck him eleven times, and, strange to relate, the blows did not appear to worry him to any great degree, as be never once left tbe surface of the water, but continued unconcernedly at a slow pace up stream. I immediately left my rod and reel and hastily scampered to my boat. It was only a question of several. minntes before I was in midstream in hot pursuit of this object, which was soon overtaken. When within close proximity I noticed it to be blind and apparently harmless. Fearing, however, an attack, I seized ray rifle, and, taking aim at its head, fired. The bullet lodged in the col lar bone and broke his neck. Thero was a slight movement of the tail, a little slashing of the water, and all was over, the monster floating down stream. Curious to learn the species of this peculiar reptile, a made a lasso from a stout rope which I had in my boat and threw it around its body, thus enabling me to tow it ashore. A critical examination developed the fact that I had captured a monster snake never before seeu by me. It had a head resembling a long funnel shaped horn, tbe body being similar to small kegs joined together. What made matters more queer, each keg had a bunghole (some of the bungs being on top and some on the sides). Hauling the tail on the bank (which was by no means an easy task), out of curiosity to learn the contents of tho kegs, I opened one of the bungholes by means of a jackkmfe, and found it to contain a very fine purified oil. Just at this juncture my uucle. who is an old fisherman and has been a member of the city council, came up, and the minute his eyes fell on the captive, with frantic gesticu lations he exclaimed that I had captured a valuable porpoise Bnake, seldom seen in these waters. The oil in the kegs I found to be pure, un adulterated porpoise oil. I had twelve forty nine gallon oil barrels sent to the bank and filled them alL The oil was shipped to the most extensive watch making establishment in this country, and brought a handsome sum. By way of explanation, I would say that this snake obtains the oil by plunging its sharp head into the side of the porpoise and drains every drop of oil from its body. The snake had fifty-three kegs and was sixty-nine feet long. I still have possession of the kegs and bungs (the head having decayed), which I prize. Should any one doubt tho veraoity of this statement, I can exhibit the kegs and bungs. New Orleans Picayune. Clriring a Bailroa'd Wreck. A gentleman tells me that he has seen one of the most extraordinary pieces of executive dispatch in his life, "was coming down the Hudson River road," he said, "two or three days ago, when the train was stopped by a wreck near Hudson. A freight train had been thrown off the track. The engine was lying imbedded in a bole, one car was ly ing across the track; another had lost its trucks and was flat on the track, and the tender of the locomotive was also deeply im bedded. We had waited there an hour and a half or two hours, and twenty trains had been stopped. They had yanked one of the cars up on jack screws, as if to run trucks under it, and then get it out of the way. It looked as if we were going to stay until night, and we began to think about finding a steamboat or buggy or something to get on to New York, when all at onca an engine and wreck ing car heaved in sight. Before the engine had come to a stop we could hear the roadmaster's voice ring out, giving his orders before he had seen the sit uation. He seemed to be as familiar with everything on the spot as if he had been there all night. There was an engine off at soma distance, but doing nothing. Ho called out to the engineer to come up and make fast to tbe buried locomotive. In half a minute the en gine was attached and pulling to get the other out of the hole, and at the second effort the great mass of iron came up suddenly, and was hauled out of the road. "Pass that rope over the top of that car, aud make fast to the tree younder," he cried, It was done. 'Now 500 of you lay hold of that rope," he shouted. The entire little army, under the inspiration of that voice, lay hold of the rope, using the tree for a purchase, and they pulled the car across the track square and out of the way by main strength. "Come on here with that engine," he crie? again, "make fast to this truck." With an other tremendous pull tbe whole thing came out of the ground like a tree by the roots, and was rushed off. "Now start that first train," cried the man. In less than two min utes from the time of his arrival, what looked to be a week's job was out of the way, and the passengers went on. New York Letter, A Child's Solo in Church, An interesting incident was the first ap pearance iu public of a young singer who holds a responsible position as soprano in one of the leading choirs of the city. Before the young lady was more than 3 or 4 years old she accompanied her mother to church, and. to her the singing was by far the most im portant part of the service. The child's voice was pleasing, being much admired by those of the congregation who heard her. On one occasion the minister announced the hymn which is usually sung to the tune "Green field." The little singer felt that she was familiar with this tune and could do justice to the hymn. As tbe first stanza was sung the child's voice ascended above the others, and many in the congregation stopped singing to listen to the young singer. When the second stanza was begun the few who took up the air with tho choir stopped singing, and as the choir continued with the regular words of the bymn the child took tip a solo, which was heard all over the little church. In clear tones be sang "Go Tell Aunt Nabby," etc., a scoti adapted to "Greenfield," the familiar 1 .tune. Troy Times. J7M yarls Educated Beggar. .
