PENSIONERS OF THE WAR OF 1812
Tli re Are Still Thirtefn of Them on
the
I nitt'd States I'ennioa Koll.
Trier o are just thirteen actual survi
vors cf the war of 1S12 on the United
Suite pension roll-, the oldest of
whom is 101 years of ago. Oue might
i-upjjoie thitt the pensioners of the
revolutionary war were long sigo
eulled to their reward, but such is not
the c;ie as fourteen are still found on
the lists. Siven arc widows and
seven are children of the heroes of
l"i. One widow married at tho age
of twenty-three, in iKJG, to a revolu
tionary pensioner who was then
eighty-six years of age. Two children
wei e the tesult of the union, who are
both living; and the widow draws a
pension and is likely to do so for sev
eral years yet, unless cut aown by
dise.i.-J. as bhe is s;tid to carry her
eighty-three jears remarkably well.
The pension list arising from the late
war has reached its zenith, and is now
on the decline.
Most of the veterans are grizzled
and gray and the death roll from the
brave boys who wore the blue is fast
decimating the gallant band.
Twenty-live years will see most of
them called to their last reward and
fifty y ;ats from now none but widows
:im! orphans will be left to represent
them.
THEY MOVED HER OUT.
.in- r the Young lilootlH Create Konh
House at l.ulu KuniKe'rt.
Lulu II. tinge has filed complaint
against fifteen boys who visited her
piitee of abode at a late hour last
night and tore up her funiture and
moved it ail out in the street, beside
iiring loud a ml boisterous language.
I.ulu may not be an angel in disguise,
but she has some rights which sho
proposes the court shall protect. An
t P.oi t is being made to lix matters up
without an airing in the police court,
a some of the young men do not care
for that sort of an advertisement.
I ufort un;Ue .Mr. Daniher.
The widow of Jerry Daniher, jr.,
who came in hero unattended a few
nights ago, is found to be clearly in
sane and promises to become a countj'
charge. The board of commissioners
have wired her brother who resides
near C.iron, Nevada, that if he will
meet them half way the- will take her
to him and he can take care of her
there, where it is claimed she has
sotr.c property.. She Lr.a had he con
r'.ant attention from the ladies of the
Catholic church since her arrival,
but it seems an imposition that sne
should be s-ent here to live on
strangers. She will be taken out to
the poor farm this afternoon and cared
for until arrangements can be per
fected to send her home.

One hundred boys at the Kearney
Industrial school made a oreak for
liberty hist evening lifter supper, and
twenty-live of them succeeded in get
ting away. The others were held in
by tho keeper drawing a revolver.
Telegrams were sont in all directions,
ai;d by midnight all but fifteen had
been captured, among whom was the
leader, a well-known I'lattsmouth
boy. This is the lirst outbreak that
has occurred, and some sort of pun
ishment no doubt will fo.low or the
insubordination will not be quelled.

Argentina Ant.
A common way of destroying the ants
in Argentina is by means of a small
metal cylindrical furnace half filled
with any kind of dry, inflammable rub
bish, and in the top a pan suspended
tontainiug flowers of sulphur. When
lighted, a lid is screwed down over
this, so that the smoke can only issue
from a bent metal tube, which conducts
it to the ant hole. A pair of bellows,
worked by a handle, is attached to the
lower part of the furnace, thus making
the fire burn and forcing the sulphurous
smoke along the aiit passages. The
whole apparatus is suspended on wheels
and can thereby be conveniently moved
from part to part of the quinta. With
this instrument such volumes of suffo
cating smoke can soon be produced that
it will often be issuing thickly from
holes 200 or 300 yards distant. So you
may imagine tho ants have a somewhat
lively time of it or, perhaps, rather, a
deadly one.
In spite, however, of waging war
against them they multiply so rapidly
that it is only where the gardeners fight
thera very energetically that they can
be kept down, and the amount of dam
age they do is often appalling. When
up country, on the border of the Grand
Chaco, where, of course, these insects
work their own sweet will, the writer
once discovered .a deserted wooden hut
Incautiously leaning against the struc
ture, he was surprised to see the whole
of it collapse. But on examination he
found the reason to be that every por
tion of the woodwork had been perfor
ated and undermined by the ants, and
only required a very slight touch to
crumble into ruins. The inroads of tl9
ants had probably been the cause of
abandoning tho hut. Temple Bar.
Carlyle Reproved.
An amusing and characteristic anec
dote of Thomas Carlyle is given in Mrs.
Ross "Early Days Recalled." Mrs.
Ross, the daughter of Sir Alexander
and Lady Duff Gordon, enjoyed from
her earliest years the privilege of meet
ing many distinguished persons under
delightful conditions. Her mother's
beauty and wit, as well as her father's
social and official rank, attracted men
and women eminent in art, letters and
politics to their home. The only visitor
whom little Janet cordially disliked
was Mr. Thomas Carlyle. She says:
One afternoon my mother had a dis
cussion with him on German literature.
Her extraordinary eloquence and fire
prevailing, Carlyle lost his temper and
burst forth in his Scotch tongue,
"You're just a windbag, Lucie; you're
just a windbag!"
I had been listening with all my ears,
and, conceiving him to be very rude,
interrupted him by saying, "My papa
always says men should be civil to wom
en," for which - pert remark I got a
scolding from my mother, but Mr. Car
lyle was not offended, and, turning to
her observed, "Lucie, that child ol
yours has au eye for an inference."
Bogas Diamonds.
Some curious stories can be to!c
about the thousands of false diamond,
Fold yearly in London. As a working
goldsmith I have seen a good deal of the
trade iu imitation stones. People of all
ranks buy them. A nobleman is ia im
mediate want of cash and must find it
somewhere. Ho will perhaps turn to
his family diamonds. Possibly 10,000
could be raised upon them. He takes
the jewelry off to the false diamond
provider, has the real stones removed
and the false ones put in and deposits
tho actual gems with some one as a se
curity for a loan. No one is a bit the
wiser. His wife appears in her jewels
just the same as usual. If she didn't,
her husband would be made bankrupt
by hie creditors tho next week. A large
amount of business is done in this way,
and you may depend upon it that the
false diamond merchant has many a
chuckle when he reads in his paper
about Lady So-and-so's "magnificent
diamond bracelet" and the Countess
Bareacre's "superb tiara. " Ashton Re
porter. A Story of Crisp.
Here is a little story of the late
Charles Frederick Crisp: In one of the
counties of his district there was a lit
tle weekly newspaper to which he faith
fully subscribed. When he would come
home from Washington, he always
sought the editor and demanded to
know if his subscription bad not ex
pired. On one of these occasions, meet
ing with the editor, he handed him a
$5 bill, saying:
"I have missed three issues of my
paper, and I am sure I must be in ar
rears. Take that and call it square."
"Rut," said the editor, "the paper is
only $1 a year, and your subscription
won't bo out until January."
"That's all right," replied Crisp,
"but yon keep the money." And then
in a whipper, "I never saw an editor
yet that didn't need it" Atlanta Con
stitution. What the Sun Could Do.
The astronomers have been figuring
on the amount of heat and light that
our sun is constantly emitting. It is
shown by this wonderful table of fig
ures that our earth constantly receives
as much sunshine as would illuminate
50,000.000 square miles of flat surface.
Even this vast quantity is as nothing,
for, of course, our earth only receives
that which happens to fall on the side
next to the sun. If there were
2,380,000,000 worlds strung around the
sun. they would form a shell or a
sphere, with the kuu iu the center, and
each would receive daily and hourly
the same amount cf sunshine that we
enjoy. St. Louis Republic.
A Toothless Emperor.
Jaroslaf I of Russia had no teeth,
having lost these valuable adjuncts to
happiness by a blow from a Turkish
mace. An English traveler in his coun
try says it was commonly reported that
the king's chewing was done by the
queen, who masticated all the royal
food and transferred it from her mouth
to his majesty's with a spoon.
INFORMATION AND OPINIONS.
The Columbus Journal says that
Don Benson had found a flock of geese
down among the trees at tho river
with their wings so coated with ice
that it was an impossibility for them
to fly, and so he hearded them to
gether and drove them up to his
premises.
As a debater, James J. Corbett is
undoubtedly entitled to the first place
in an all round argument with Fitz-
simmons or any of the pugilistic crowd.
He is evidently possessed of great
discretion, however, as is shown by
the fact that he continues to fail in his
herculean - effort to meet Fitzsim-
mons in the ring. It seems to be a
case of "heap talk but not much fight."
The average majority of the Bryan
electors in Nebraska is found to be
13,000, which is only a little over half
the majority received by Holcomb.
Holcomb should be the presidential
nominee next time.
The Morton house at Nebraska City
was opened up in good style a few
days ago, but, as one of the papers
there states, the new manager refused
to use any printer's ink, and the result
was few people kne w of tho hotel be

closed on a chattel mortgage. Cer
tainly a very short lived affair.
The ministers of Lincoln throcgh
the columns of tho best paper in Ne
braska, the State Journal, discussed
yesterday tho wisdom of Solomon, and
all agreed that he was the wisest
man of his time, if not of all times.
No mention was made, however, as to
the amount of wisdom shown in tak
ing over 300 wives. The Lincoln et;
clesiatics should have given tho pub
lic a desertation, on this topic as it
might have been of general interest.

Mrs. A. Rouse, of Omaha, attempted

A Heal Bargain.
"Dear," she said, and her sweetest
tnd mo4t engaging smile illumined her
face, "if you had a handsome lap robe,
could you use it?"
"Certainly not," he replied. "You
know very well that we haven't a vehi
cle of any description. "
"That's what I thought, " she return
ed, "so I have packed it away. Later,
vben we are wealthy and keep horses,

"Packed it away I" he exclaimed, in
terrupting her. "Packed what away?"
: --'Why, the lap robe," 6he answered
ST ;tly.
'VButwe haven't a lap robe," he pro
tested. "Oh, yes, we have," she returned.
"I happened to stumblo into that de
partment of one of the big 6tores today,
and. they had marked them down so
low that I felt I ought to get one of
them before the opportunity slipped
awav. "
"But we don't need"
"Not now, but we may," she inter
rupted. "It's just as well to get these
things when they can be had at a bar
gain, and this was a real bargain. You
men are very thoughtless about such
things. You would never have thought
of buying this robe now. You wouldn't
have the foresight, but would have
waited until you had a horse, and then,
very likely, you would have to pay a
dollar mere for it." Mercantile Jour
nal. Photography Heats the Fakirs.
The; Indian "mango" trick, in which
a plaf.t is seen to jzrow up from the
s'eed in a few minutes, has been done
in a new way by M. Michael Ccrday of
the EeMe Polytechnique in France. M.
Corday employs the well known cine
matograph, or apparatus fcr producing
"living photograph" that is to say,
photographic images endowed with
movement and apparently with life. A
rose plant is photographed at intervals
during its growth until the flower buds
and blooms. The photographs thus
taken are combined by the cinemato
graph and projected on a Ecreeu, so as
to represent the development of the
plant in a short time. The number of
photographs taken in six months should
be equal to the number which the sen
sitive band of the cinematograph will
continue. Obviously the same plan will
be able to show the changing aspects of
the country during the seasons in ono
progressive illusion, and we venture to
suggest that it might be employed with
advantage in illustrating various scien
tific experiments and natural processes
of an evolutionary or gradual sort.
