Washington, Dec. 5 Assstant Secretary Meiklejohn is not a candi date for the United States Benate, as in shown by the following letter ad-dret-sed in unswer to a communicaiion from Hon. W. T. Thompson. Central City, Neb , representative in the state legislature, inquiring if lie was a can didate: "Washington, Dec. 1. My Dear Thompson: 1 have the honor to ac knowledge your esteemed favor of re cent date, inquiring if I am or will be a candidate for United States senator, to which I answer no. "Tho .South Platte territory is en titled to a representative in the senate oj the United States and the repub licans should have noditliculty in mak ing a choice from the many excellent candidates who have already an nounced themselves. "Above all things I desire republi can success in Nebraska. "Personal ambition should always be subservient to party interest and a wise selection from this section of the state will redound to the advancement of the party and become a potent fac tor in our politics. 'With renewed assurances of high esteem and consideration. I am yours very sincerely, G. D. Meiklejohn." Two Treaties May He Signed. Washington, Dec. 5. The impres sion prevails here that the resujts of the negotiations at Paris will be em bodied in two or more treaties, instead of one. There will be one actual peace treaty, embodying nothing more than the protocol points relating to the re liquisbment of Spanish sovereignty over Cuba and the Spanish West Indies, Guam and the Philippines, with the single exception of the pro viso for the release of prisoners. All th 3 other matters, those relating to the renewal of the commercial treat ies, the acquisition of cable and coal ing stations and in fact all those ex traneous matters that have been men tioned as likely to bo incorporated in the peace treaty, will form tbe subject of a special treaty. This course is likelv to be adopted in order to hastep the conclusion of pence, for which there is a great necessity, if for no other reason than to secure tho release of prisoners and the restoration of tr-.de between Spain and the United States. Mast Protect Foreigners. Washington, Dec. 5. The secre tary of elate has received a copy of a decree recently issued by the empress of China, having for its object the bet ter protection of foreign residents in that country. The decree says in part: ' "From the opening of ports to for eign trade to the present time, for eigners and Chinese have been as one family, with undivided interests, and since missionaries from countries are living in the interior we have decreed, not three or four times, but many times, that the local officers must pro tect them and that the gentry and people of all provinces must sympa thize with our desire for mutual be nevolence; that they must treat them truthfully and honestly, with the hope of lasting relations." Nelratka News Notes. 1'iilisade is to have a creamery. It i3 reported that fully half the corn in Perkins county is still in the field. Virden sportsmen indulged in a side hunt, which resulted in the slaughter of 402 rabbits. The people of Pawnee county have subscribed $6,0C0 to lift the debt on Pawnee academy. The St. Paul road has promised to erect new depots in Tekamah and Wakefield in the spring. Central City sports recently organ iz3d a big wolf hunt. They did not even see a wolf, much less get one. Scribner is afflicted with petty thieves, wbo steal anything that is not nailed down and some things that are. J. S."Fuller of Virden was severely burned by the explosion cf a cm of powder, from which he was loading shell1?. Parties supposed to be tra'mps, broke into the barber shop of J. D Drury of Gibbon and stole a quantity of cigars and some razors. . James Chaon of Wayne county fell down a bank with a axe in his hand. Tn some manner during the tumble one of his ears was cut off. A female canvasser, who pretended to represent an eastern publishing house, recently worked the people of Ord for a considerable amount of money. ,In sluggish liver, Herbine, by its beneficial action upoa the biliary tracts, renders the bile more fluid. and brinks the liver into a sound, healthy condition, thereby brtnishinc the sense of drowsiness, lethargy, and the general feeling of apathy which J arise from disorders of the liver.

Sur. ly you will remember the "coi -por l'1 with a cigar (box) or two. You're right I haven't "done up"' any Spaniards, but I ni ido a French man (Victor Voll.tiro by name) think I was about six of them. IJw rof. aod to obey my rder-t and w :s about to clean mo up when I "gently" wont after him. I also siw Liettcant Webster, who ha ch;iro i f mo. and he immediately 8ent him back to his company. I have been detached from rr.y com pany and am now with the First Bri gade provost guards. I have charge of sixteen men and pine gu trds around tho First Brigade corral at night. This corral contains 1300 government tnules, and as there tiro negroes down in this part of the country who "might" steal, they are thus guarded. In the daytime we keep, tho Fitst Brigade officers' touts in good condi tion and arc also in readiness to help move camp when orders are given. I am kept pretty busy, but like tho j'.b. All the guards tiro good men and I like them all They think Hi ram George (or corporal, 1 should say) about right. My health is excellent lipping the scales at 170 that's not bad, consider ing ihe lood wo get. You ought to see me eat. Undo Sam surely losrs money when I commence to perform at the table. Ij-ast night the Savannah Journal contained an article that tho Seventh Army Corps would be musierecl cut inside of thirty day?. You ought to hear the soldiers (11,000 of them) yell. Did the boys buy pa pets? 10 very body purchased papers. If we are going to be mustered out as everybody s.ia why are they giving in new rill-1-, new tents and buying more mulct? I don't believe the report, but I am the only one who don't believe it. For my p-trt I would jut as soon go to Cuba, as s'.ay here. Just now there is more yelling outside. Another report, I yuess. The Third Nebraska has got its grounds in neater shape than any regiment in the Seventh Army Co h. It is a beautiful camp and is kept, in excellent condition. They have better touts, too. They are of heavy canvass and look very ne st. Our new rill s the Ct asr-.Toi genseu is a fine gun. The uiagtizlne will hold five shells 'uid tbe cha-mber one shell. It can bo tired very rapidly and kills at 1,800 yards, a little over a mile.
