The republican county central committee of Cass county Neb., is hereby called to meet at Weeping Water on Saturday March 2Gth at 1 o'clock p. m. Important busines will come before the meeting and a full attendance is earnestly re quested. OKLANIM) TEFFT, Chairman. A. L. Timblin, Secretary. A. J. GRAVES will be the new councilman from the Fifth ward. G. Longenhagen of the First ward will be a councilman after election. While Hill is down south, Grover Cleveland i9 busy making hay in the northern states. UNCLE Sam has concluded that if England does not help to abolish the seal poachers he will do it him self. F. II. Stemkier, of the Third ward, will be elected to be a member of the council by a handsome major ity. The Democrats put up a good ticket last night, but the republi cans will put up a better one to night. Joe Lake, of the Fourth ward, will make a number one council man 'and the republicans of that ward will see that he is elected. Hill is not in the south duck hunting and fishing or for his health. He is after delegates, and he is getting them, but he is losing in the north. The report comes now that the south will be almost solid for Hill, because he holds that the domo crats should have the office whether they carry the election or not. Roger Q. Mills says he is "certain" to be chosen to the scn atorship, and he is probably cor rect in this prediction, but it should be remembered that he was, three or four months ago, just as "certain" of gaining the speaker ship. OUR NEW DIPLOMATIC ERA. The' number of international complications which the country has figured in in the past three years has been altogether without a precedent in an era of peace. We have had trouble with Germany in the Samoa affair, with Italy in the New Orleans lynching, with Chili in the Valparaiso murder cases and with England in the Behring Sea matter. The latter question, it is true, comes to us from the Cleve land regime, but it has taken on its most alarming phases during the days of the present administration, and into one of them the question has again entered. Disputes with Great Britain, indeed, were common enough in the past. They occurred several times between the close of the war of 1812 and the beginning of the civil conflict. In Jhose days, however, they were concerned with the boundary question between this country and Canada chiefly, and excited but little interest any where except in the two countries immediately affected. The contro Tery in the Behring Sea affair, however, is outside the line of all previous dispute between then" countries, and the audience which it attracts is more extended ii ;u, any which vi ever called togetht ; by a discu eion in which tlte United States was ever a partici pant. In the Samoa aifair, alc-o. this country appeared in a new role, and it was brought, in diplomacy, into collision with a nation with whose interests and ambitions hitherto ours never clashed. Indeed, a new diplomatic epoch has opened for the country. The circle of its interests and activities has immensely broadened within the past few years, and the old era of seclusion and separation has closed. Our home industries and enterprises no longer completely monopolize our eueigies. A field for our talent and capital outside our wn borders is being sought' and the quest is being pushed with intelligence and vigor. We will thus touch the current of the life of the rest of the world more closely than before and at more points. The new conditions, of course, will give rise to new issues and precipi tate complications and controver sies which would have been im possible in our old state. As these are the inevitable consequence of the altered circumstances we must try to meet the requirements of the situation. Our old policy of avoid ing alliances with foreign nations must be ad'iered to. Europe will be required to keep its hands off this continent, and we will refrain from interference in Europe's com. binations and quarrels. Our com mercial conquests in the western hemisphere and in the rest of the world will often bring us into colli sion with other nations, but in such cases our well-known freedom from ambition toward further territorial absorption will do much to disarm outside hostility toward us. But in any event the new diplomatic period, which we have entered is full of perplexities and perils, and the situation demands a forbear ance, a sagacity and a tact which will call out all the resources of our statesmen and executives.- -Globe-Democrat. YOUXG Bryan had a little sheep: Its wool was white as fleece; It got into the house one day, To hear him speak a piece. Alas! poor thing, a foolish break It gave offense most sore; He talked the wool all off its back And strewed it on the floor. He lambed that sheep for one full hour. Oh 1 bold and brave was he ; And when he yielded up the floor . He'd talked for full hours three. Gentlemen would not use "Blush of Roses" if it was a paint or pow der, of course not.

T!ii inms of the African rhinoceros sunctinies fjrow t ) the lnu;ih of four feet. From them the Du !i J5.x;rs nialui ramrods ami ot Ii r articles. You may rcmcm her that the haitdlo of the ax used by I'mslopnaus in 'Allan Quaternia'nf was a rhinoceros horn. In old times rhiiioceroiia horns were employed for drinking cuns by royal personages, the notion being that poison put into thm would show itself by bubbling. There may have been some truth in the idea, inasmuch as many of the ancient poisons were acids and they would decompose the horny material very quickly. "Several species of rhinoceros, now extinct and only found in a fossil state, used to exist which had no horns at all. The name, meaning as it does 'horned nose,' is rather a misnomer in their case. Several kinds of rhinoceros in Africa. have two horns, one behind the other, but the extinct .rhinoceros, known as the dyceratherium, had a pair of horns on its nose side by side. Many of the giant reptiles of long ago had enormous horns. The great lizard known as the triceratop3 had a big horn over each eye and a little one on its nose. The dinoceras and the tinoceras, gigantic mammals of the tertiary epoch, had three pairs of prominences on their heads which are believed to have supported horns. However, the material of which horn is composed quickly decays, being largely composed of gelatine and other animal matter, so that these appen dages are apt to be found absent when the fossil bones of beasts which had them are found. "Some fishes have horns which are actually outgrowths of bone on their heads. The box-lish which inhabits the warm waters of the globe a little fellow six or eight inches long has horns an inch in length. .Birds have horns also sometimes. The. horned screamer, which is related to the duck, has a single horn attached to its skull, springing from a cartilaginous base and curving upward. It is really a modi fied feather, though a true horn. "Plenty of reptiles have horns. Lizards are very commonly provided with them. There are chameleons with three horns, like the ancient tricera tops. Horned toads have a sort of crest of four horns on the back of their heads. There is a small African enake which has two horns. No horn ed tortoises now exist, but a fossil specimen was found awhile ago on Lord Howe's island in the southern Pacific, which had four horns on its crest and resembled a cross between a horned toad and a snapping turtle. Doubtless you have have often heard of human beings with horns. Such appendages in their case are abnormal develop ments of bone." AN ANCIENT IDOL. The Modest Cuy Deity of the I American Heathen. The ytate Historical Society was en riched yesterday by an image of jot tery supposed to be an idol of some prehistoric race, probably the mound - iers, says the Topeka Capital. The iuol was found near Aron, Independ ence County, Arkansas, and was dug from a mound by relic hunters along with a number of decayed human bones, copper arrow hotels and broken domestic utensils. It is the property of G. W. Hume, of Strasburg, Mo. The idol is seven inches in height by live inches in diameter. It is rudely constructed, having evidently been formed by hand, or at best very crude tools, from common clay, ami after ward hardened by being dried in the sun. The idol represents a human figure in a kneeling posture, the arms ex tending at the side. The features are rudely formed, yet, notwithstanding this, are not altogether repulsive, the nose being gracefully aquiline and the lips well formed. The ears are miss ing, but the remnanW show that they were adorned with rt- gs. The body is "squatty," and migl be said to re semble a toad. At the op of the head there is a hole which seems to have served a purpose, probably that of fast ening a headdress to the ligure. The image would hardly be catalogued with the works of art, but it is nevertheless an interesting relic. The race whose diety was represent ed by this clumsy bit of clay inhabited the Mississippi Valley from the great lakes to the gulf at a time to which the tiadittons of man runneth not. Who they were, where they came from. what their manner of hie w as is all a mystery. True, many mounds, exca vations and burying grounds of this lost people hae been discovered, but so far the- have given . but little of their history. That they lived and iied before the race of American In dians existed is proved by tht fact that the traditions of the latter race con tain no reference to this lost people, although their mounds and relics are nenlioned. Many mounds of this kind 'are found in Missouri. Illinois, Ken tucky, Tennessee, Ohio and Indiana, and a few have been liscovered in nearly " of the tatesof the Mississip pi Valley.
