NOTICIC.
Owing to tho clnnpu in tho manage
raont of Thk Nkws it is desired that
all money due on subscription or other
accounts bo paid as soon as possible.
All accounts are payable to either C.
S. Polk or J. E. Marshall.
TllK Kea ney reform t-chool muddle
will bo settled in the supremo court
u tier quo warranto proceedings mia
week. The pops are having all kinds
of fun nowadays.
M. Fm.ix Kaukk, president of the
republic cf France, died suddenly
last, Thursday night. His death was
clue to a stroke of apoplexy an 1 he had
only been ill about three hours.
The News wants correspodeuls at
every postollice in the county who will
send in the nes events. It is not ex
pected of tho correspondents lo
s'.i-aiyhleti c-ut the affairs t f the na
tion or of the state, bywriting "heavy
editorials." It is the news that is
wanted, for which a fair compensa
lion will be given.
A bill has been introduced in the
Wisconsin legislature to tax all news
papers 2 to 4 per cent on their gross
earnings. A newspaper works incess
antly for the upbuilding of the state
and community in which it is printed
something that no other institution
does, and for which it gets no pay
and this would bo about as unjust a
bill as could be framed. However, it
is prettv certain the bill will be
snowed under.
Disba i.MENT proceedings were in
stituted against John C. Watson in
the district court of Otoe county last
Friday. The charges are unprofes
sional conduct in court cases, one of
which is the Tourtelot bankruptcy
case at Nebraska City and in this city.
The charges are signed by J. Sterling
Morton and eleven other prominent
citizens of Otoe county and, as Watson
has been a prominent lawyer for
number of years, the outcome will be
watched with interest.
Thk News has on its exchange
table a copy of the Daily Independent
published at Dead wood, S. D. , by F,
N. f'otter, formerly of this city. It is
a newsy sheet, but is off color, politi
cally, as it advocates the time-worn
and long-deceased free siiver cause
M. D. Polk is employed on the paper
and unless he has been converted since
leaving here it evidently goes down
hard to write such matter. Potter was
also a republican when he was con
nected with the Herald in this city.
Tjieuk is no valid reason why the
famps and other offenders iricarcer
ated in the city jnil should not be
made to work out their fines on lhe
streets. It is a great snap for the av
eraye bum who yets drunk, or for
other reasons is caken to jail and al
lowed to feed up a week or two at the
expen e of the taxpayers, but if they
were compelled to woi k, they would
be a little more careful. L t the
streets be thoroughly cleaned once,
and they could be kept so without ad
ditional expense by these jail birds.
Thk pops of Nebraska have a great
time lighting over the spoils. Gover
nor I'oyntef appointed J. C. Sprecher
to the position of superintendent of
the Kearney reform school, to take
the place of Hoxie, the former super
intendent. Sprecher and his assis
tants went to Kearney yesterday to
take charge of the institution, but
Hoxie, beiug ve.ry well satisfied with
his job, refused to get out, and now
there are to superintendents and two
sets of assistants, and the militia is
liable to have to be called in to settle
the muddle.
Every patriotic American citizen
ought to write to his senators and rep
resentatives in congress, urging each
and all of them to do his utmost to
secure the passage cf the shipping bill
that has been favorably reported by
the house committee on merchant
marine and fisheries and the senate
committee on commerce. The passnge
of that bill, during the present session
of congress, would lay the broad
foundation that would, in time, make
of the United States the greatest ship
building and the greatest shipowning
nation on earth.
A story is current to the effect that
a New York newspaper offered Ad
miral Dewey the sum of 85,000 for an
article, and that the response which
came back by cable was: "Thanks; I
am too busy." If the story is true,says
the Conservative, it occurs to us that
this Baying amounts to an pigram.and
has quite as much value, both as a
literary effort for the edification of the
men of today, and as a monument to

Jewish eonyreyation in New Yori for
over twenty-live years, lias become
physically unable to attend to the
duties devolving upon him and makes
wy for a younger, and more activo
man. Tho salary is understood to be
N,UU0, but the position makes tho
place still more important us it may
be said to carry with it the leadership
in the Reformed Jewish congregations
of the country, and certainly will do
so in case of tho acceptance of tho
call by Dr. Ilirsch, which is regarded
as probable. Dr. Ilirsch fcas for many
years occupied the leading place in
Judaism of the reform class in this
city and in the west. He is a clear
thinker anil rearonor, a popular and
olcq ut nt speaker, keenly alive in the
progressive thoughts of tho day, secu
lar and religious and has done much
to pcpularize and m ike attractive tho
ancient faith ho teaches. He is in full
svnip'tthy with the progressive ten-
j doncies of te branch of .Judaism with
oitv and has hosts of friends oul-ide his
i-oiigi cyation, creed and nalio ality.

"Dr. iliisc'u will even add to tho
prestige of Temple Emanu-EI, as his
position as a brilliant leaner among
the progressives of his faith has b'en
even more conspicuous in recent years
perhap-i than that of the eminent

During the World's Fair hold in
Chicago in IH'Xi the Jewish De no mi na
na t ion a 1 congress convened in the
Memorial Art Palace. This Is the
first ti no in history that the Jews
were yra n ted such an opportunity to
declare tiieir fundamental doctrines.
Noteworthy are tho words with which
President Chnrles C. Iionr.ey opened
the first session in the Hall of Colum
bus "The Providence of the (Jed of
.Aoratiam, Isaac and Jacob has to or
dered the arrangement of the relig
ious congresses under the auspices of
the World's Congree- Auxiliary of the
World's Columbian Exposition U it
the mother church, from which all
the Christian denominations trace
their lineaye, and which stands in the
history of matiKind as the special ex
ponent of august and triumphant
theism has been called upon to open
the religious congrt s-es of 89." But
far more important and significant is
tho fact that this arrangement has
been made, and this congress is now
foi mally opened and welcomed by as
ultra and ardent a Chri-tinn as the
world contains, it is becauseT am a
Christian, and the chairman of the
general commute of organizations of
the religious congresses is a Christian,
and a large majority of that committee
are Cii ris' ia ns; that this day deserves
to stand gold-bordered in human his
tory as one of the signs that a new age
of bn-thcrhood and peace has truly-
come.
A "looker-on" at one session of the
Jewish Woman's congress held duriny
the World's Feir has written his im
pressions of that meeting in a most in
teresting way "The hall was always
ci ovvded to its fullest capacity. Like
once on the shores of the li-vl sea,
this occasion again inspired the
women of Isreal, and they presented
the faith of their mothers with a'l the
eloquence and earnestness born of con
viction, and the nu m ry of the Jewish
woman's devotion '.o her principles
and loyal fidelity to her faith throuyh
out eighteen centuries of the most
trying ci 1 cumstances that woman has
ever had to confront."
In this conyress Miss Sadie Ameri
can of Chicago said: "The Jewish
woman has shared the ideas and
thoughts of the man. Sno has aided
with Ijeart and hand in his work, the
assistance of her head has rarely been
asked. Her real work - has been con
fined to the home. There it is she has
made her influence felt. To the Jew,
motherhood was and is the highest,
noblest type of womanhood. In the
home tho Jewish woman reigned as
queen, to her were left the perform
ance ol loliyiou rites in the house
hold. Hut the Jewish woman is inter
ested in all that interests woman, and
is in perfect sympathy with the time."

caused her great suffering for years.
Terrible sores would break out on her
head and face, and the best doctors
could give no help; but her ctre is com

This shows what thousands have
proved, that Electric Biiters is the
best blood purifier known. It's the
supreme remedy for eczema, tetter,
salt rheum, ulcers, boils, and running
sores. It stimulates liver, kidneys and

"Married Men's" Watches.
A Newburg (N. Y.) jeweler has In
vested in a stock of "married men's"
watches. The peculiarity of these
watches lies in the fact that they are
furnished with an alarm attachment
which a man's wife can set at the ex
act hour when she wishes him to start
for home. The alarm going off at that
time will remind him that his wife ex
pects him.
n. E'resson, Fre-son vide, Kuns
writes Jan. 5, 1SSH): "Ship order at j
once, only have one bottle left." j
rothinjr like Foley 'a Honey and lar
is the universal verdict of all wl.o
have used. Kspeciallv has this been
true of coughs accompanying and suc
ceeding la grippe. Not a single bottle
failed to give almost immediate reiief.
Everybody recommends it. F. G.

SICK OR WELL, A RUSH
NIGHT AND DAV.
The Packers at the Battle of Santiago tie
Cuba Were All Heroes Their Heroic
Efforts In Getting Ammunition and
Rations To the Front Saved the Day.
P. H. Butler, of pack-train No. 3,
writing from Santiago do Cuba, on
July 23, says: "We all hud diarrhoea
in more less violent form, and when
we landod to had no time to sou a

Cholera and Diarrhoea Hemody, wo
woro able to keep al work and keep
our health; in fact, I sincorly believe
that at one critical timo this medicine
was the indirect savior of our army,
for if tho packore had been unable to

Itlch Pearl Field IN vnroil.
New pearl fields of great richness
have been discovered off tho coast of
New Caledonia on the west side, ac
cording to United States Consul Wolf
at Noumea. He says that one shell
contained the fabulous number of "oh"
pearls and one little boat of one and
one-half tons furnished last year
twenty-two pounds of pearls. I'p to
this time the water has not been
sounded to a greater depth than six
feet seven inches, but the fisheries are
to be further exploited by French and
Austrian syndicates. Mr. Wolf says
that the quality of the pearl shells Is
remarkably fine, and he urges that
Americans profit by the discovery.

lSlin.t iMau'tf Extraordinary Work.
Joseph Wunprecht, of Augsburg, in
Germany, was blind from birth, but
kept a second-hand book shop so suc
cessfully that he retired. His shop
often contained as many as 20,000 vol
umes, but so acute was his memory
that if he had once handled a book and
placed it on the shelf, he could always
find it again immediately it was want
ed. When a fresh batch of books came
in, Wunprecht's wife described them to
him, and such was his knowledge of
books that he was able from this alone
to accurately price them.
