INFORMATION AND OPINIONS.
Bourke Cochran the orator pre
eminent, will epeak in favor of sound
money at the coliseum in Omaha
Monday evening next, and it is said
300 people from this city will go to
hear him.
George W. Bonnell, city passenger
and ticket agent of the B. & M., is
working up an excursion to Canton,
Ohio, for the purpose of giving the
citizens of Nebraska an opportunity of
calling on Major McKinley. It is said
that Mr. Bonnell has been urged to
take the m ttter in hand by a large
number of Nebraskans who desire to
pay thoir compliments to the next
president by visiting at his home. It
is Mr. Bonnell's desire to obtain a rate
so low that everyone who desires to
make the trip will be enabled to do so,
and it is probable that the round trip
may be made at the low figure of tS.
Lincoln Call.

Some of the postoffice employes
were threatened with convulsions yes
terday upon perceiving a gentleman
with buckwheat and millet seed in hie
whiskers tackle tho artesian well in
the government square. The rustic
took an immense swallow of the spark
ling fluid and nearly choked to death.
After spluttering around like a har
pooned whale for some minutes he ex
amined the cup, thinking that some
miscreant had played a joke on him by
putting salt in the receptacle. He
saw nothing in the cup. but would not
trust it again, so he made a bowl out
of his two hands and again toon a
large mouthful of the water. The
effect was the same as before, but the
immediate result was the explos
ion of a large and choice collection of
rural adjectives. Lincoln News.
In a recent letter to the manufac
turers Mr. W. F. Benjamin, editor of
the Spectator, Rushford, N. Y., says:
"It may be a pleasure to you to know
the high esteem in which Chamber
lain's medicines are held by the
people of your own state, where they
must be best known. An aunt of
mine, who resides at Dexter, Iowa,
was about to visit me a few years
since, and before leaving homo wrote
me, asking if they were sold here,
stating that if they were not she
would bring a quantity with her, as
she did not like to be without them."
The medicines referred to are Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy, famous for
its cures of colds and croup; Chamber
lain's Pain Balm for rheumatism.

sirous of having Cass county furnish

Eli Hill, Lumber City, Pa., writes
"I have been suffering from Piles for

INDIVIDUALITY.
Most shoes, like many people, lack individuality, lhey are of the
ordinary type. There's nothing particularly pleasing about them;
they are good enough and poor enough. It is not so with our shoes,

ality, as it were, of their own.
There aro shoes and shoes there are shoes you want and shoes
you don't want. When you need shoes, our shoos are the shoes you

Stomach, sometimes called vraterbrash,

dyspepsia, are cured by Hood's Sarsa
parilla. This it accomplishes because
with its wonderful power as a blood
purifier, Hood's Sarsaparilla gently
tones and strengthens the stomach and
- digestive organs, iuvigorates the liver,
creates an appetite, gives refreshing
sleep, and raises the health tone. In
cases of dyspepsia and indigestion it
seems to have "a magic touch."
' For over 12 years I suffered from sour

which would leave me very weak and

did not receive any lasting benefit from

Miss Collius certainly has a lovely

rank with that of the very best artists
that have ever visitei this city. Ilur
voice showed much eulturo and its vol
ume and swectnees in the higher n'ott-s
was certainly phenomenal.
Miss Bates, tho elocutionist, is a
charming young lady of line appear
ance and with much natural ability.
Her selections were specially well ren
dered, but it seemed a pity to wanle
talent on some of the pieces which were
given. Charles Keeier, the piani.-t,
showed coriderable improvement
and is v .thoul question a splendid
