James Russell Lowell died at his
home in Cambridge at 2:15 a. m
yesterday. The name of James
Russell Lowell is familiar to all
and the annoucetnetit of his death
cati not fail to be received with
sorrow and the sad event every
where deplored. Mr. Lowell has
for several -ears been otie of the
stars iti the literary world; he was
not only a poet of distinction, but a
philisophical essayist and critic,
held in high esteetn at home and
honored abroad. U is conceded by
our paomineni critics mat no man
has contributed more to our litera
ture that is valuable than he. Of
former year Mr. Lowell took an
active interest in pofitics, tho'
recently he has devoted his entire
energy to literature.

We notice with pleasure that the
boards of trade throughout the
state are taking advance steps
toward briiiinnir before the pros
pective harvest excursionists the
advantages of our state. We be
lieve that the scenery of Nebraska
will compare favorably with that of
our sister states; and as these ex
cursionists, many of them at least,
are coming "west" looking for a
home, it behooves every one to be
on the aggressive in bringing be
fore them our advantages. Let us
give them a cordial welcome.

F.urope is considerably excited
over the announcement that Russia
has prohibited the exportation of
rye a cereal upon which several of
the countries, especially Germany
and Austria, have depended. The
effect has been to rapidly advance

demand, the agreeable duty of sup

breadstuffs will be relatively ef

farmers will not continue their

Giants Again Victorious
The second of this week's base
ball games, played at the ball park
yesterciay arternoon, resulted in
another complete triumph for the
visitors. The Giants have fully
demonstrated that they are ball
plaj-ers of ability. IMattsmouth
played a game up to the fifth in
ning that compared favorably with
their usual playing, and a
that would have given them the
belt had they carried it out to the
end. In the fifth inning IMatts
mouth made several rank errors
and let in five runs. Some of the
boys seemed dazed, and appeared
to overlook the fact that there was
more than one man running, when,
on the contrary, there was a com
plete force run. From this on our
boys appeared to lose confidence in
themselves or else interest began to
ag. At any rate they did not play
the game as if they were wholly in
it.
The Giants, on the contrary, made
only three errors, which did them

Sad Accident to an Excursion Party.
An employee in one of the prin
cipal dry goods stores in Hunting
ton, I., l., gave an excursion party
to his friends which ended very un
pleasantly.
There were about 6C0 people on
board the excursion steamer, and
while returning to the city, a hurri
cane lifted the roof off the vessel,
dropping it againand in so doing
killing fourteen persons outright
and injuring many more.
The owners of the vessel are
blamed for the mishap, as the ves
sel, upon inspection, proved to be
rotton and unfit for use. Let us be
careful and go upon the water in
good1 vessels.

good playing. On the whole the
Giants can play ball, and do it ad

The plays of Miller and Patterson

mention. Miller got two flies that

Certain facts have been developed
recently in connection with the
operation of a building and loan
association, with headquarters at
Chicago, which has been operating
quite extensively in Nebraska. It
appears that the association sue
ceeded in securing investments to
the amount of about $180,000 and
put out, usually, only one small
loan in each community in which
they operated. An investigation of
the affair was finally demanded,
and the whole affair found to be a
fraud, but indications are that the
guilty parties will be brought to
justice. Building and loan associ
ations, when properly conducted,
are a great help to a community,
especiall3r to the wage earner and
man of small salary. Many a poor
man, thro' this instrumentality, has
been able, at the end of six or
eight years, to own a home by the
payment, each month, of no more
than he would have paid for house
rent. It will be well for our people
to investigate the workings of these
associations before becoming in
vestors. I
