TriERE is no time when the people
of Nebraska will allow those of an
other state to outdo them in anj thing,
especially when the matter of patriot
ism is at stake. Governor Poynter
gave up trying to raise the money
with which to bring the First regi
ruent home, but the people would not
allow the fair name of the state to be
disgraced in this manner and imme
diately came to the rescue. The cab
on hand is now $36,786. Nebraska is
all right.
Nobody can longer doubt the effi
cacy of the D ngley tariff law as a rev
enue producer. It was originally in
tended that it should produce at least
one-half of the ordinary revenues,
which averaged before the war expen
ditures began, one million dollars per
day, and no additions for war expenses
were made to itxcept the tea duty,
which brings less than a million dol
lars a month. Vet the receipts under,
it since March 1 have been $103,000,000,
or an average of almost $700,000 a day,
instead of the $500,000 per day expected
of it. During the same period of the
existenca of the lamented Wilson law,
the customs receipts were $75,000,000,
or leas than three-fourths of the pres
ent law in a like term.
BRYAN PUT THE It IN LIME.
The democrats, pop and a handful
of free silver republicans held their
state conventions in Omaha Tuesday
under the direction of William J'.
Bryan, and as a result of his fine work
Silas A. Ilolcomb was nominated for
the offlo of supreme judge. Edson
Rich, a democrat of Omaha, and J. T.
Teeters, a -free silver republican of
Lancaster county, were nominated for
regents of the state university all
three of the convvntions endorsing
them. Holcomb was not the real
choice of the democrats or the con
scientious populists if there are any.
But Billy Bryan stepped in and told
them what was what and the fight was
declared off.

People who complain of the great
advance in the price of meat have a
very simple remedy a remedy, more
over, which wi.l not onlv nve them
money, but will improve their health.
Let them eat less meat or eat none at
.ill, sa s the Chicago Chronicle. There
is no rea-on why th avemge city
dweller should eat meat tbree times a
day or three ttm' S a week, for that
mite And the eatii g of large
quan it. i s of me-it in the summer
inon h is simply stuffing the firebox
oT the hum -n fur uace with fuel which

which c oirs up the inacnme w.th dU-ar-tr-
u- ri-su Is. H nd infiu il labor
ni:y tie efit.ie a m l u et, though
even that i- disputed, hut for sedeu
tary occupations, which ceaion a
ve slight, wate of tissue, there is no
luves-iiy for food containing more
r.it'ogenous factors than are to be
found in v tretables. The vegetarian
doctrine no longer rests solely upon
the ry, though comparative anatomy
demonstrates p etty clearly that man
is not norma. ly a carnivorous anim l.
jt has been tested and proved to be
sound by act' al practice. It has been
shown by years of experience that
animal food is not necessary to health
and strength, and it has been shown
that In some cases at least such food is
distinctly detrimental to vigor. Cer
tain! is must be" evident to everyone
that the diet which is proper for a
hodcarrier or a blacksmith must be
unfitted for a clerk or a professional
man, yet clerks and professional men
whose sole exercise is a walk of a few
blocks daily eat quite as much meat as
is eaten by men who are exhausting
tissue by hard physical labor. The re
sult, as physicians are coming to
realize, is the great prevalence of
Blight's disease, rheumatism, apo
plexy and the other ailm3nts due to
non-assimilation of large quantities of
animal food.
Meat occasionally is well enough. In
the winter, when animal heat is
needed, meat supplies the fuel more
compactly, perhaps, than anything
else, though even in winter it is by no
means indispensable. But at no time
of year, and in summer least of all, is
there any reason for the city business
man to consume a quantity of animal
food that would suffice to nourish and
sustain a coal-heaver. He is doing
violence to his system when he eats
fod which he cannot assimilate
properly and that is what happens
when he devours meat three times a
d iy.
The advance in the price of meat,
therefore, affords an opportunity for
diet reform. Lot pe.ple cut down
their meat b;lls or cut them off alto
gether. After a tril of a month they
will auree that they never felt so well
m their lives.

EGRET IS A SHY BIRD.
How Hunters Secure the Fine Feather
for MlUinery I'urposrs.
FrosiThe New York Sua: Nearly 6
feet high, very dark from the burning
of a tropical sun, but sinewy and
strong in appearance, was Charles H.
Mohrmann a few days ago as he re
lated hisstory of the hunting of the
egret in South America. At first
glance he would be taken for an offi
cer in the Spanish or Cuban army who
had been exposed to the elements in
a campaign- He started in his present
career from the feather and hat dis
trict of New York city in au endeavor
to reach the source of supply of this
most valua'ble millinery decorative fin
ery. In his quest he hunted through
Mexico and Central America, only to
find that the game was pretty much
hunted out in those countries, and
traveled on into Venezuela before he
found the birds in rookeries, for it Is
in a gathering of this kind only that
they can be shot with profit. These
rookeries may be sought for yeara
without success. The danger, the hunt
er explained, is not great, being princi
pally from snakes, scorpions and cen
tipedes. There is a popular error, tie
says, about alligators being ferocious.
He says he has frequently waded out
into a shallow stream crowded with
them and armed only with a stick; he
has shouted at them and clubbed them
over the nose, when they would get
out of the way as fast as they could.
The long, lean kind are fiercer. Still,
about the only danger when one gets
into a school of alligators is that they
will not move out of the way until
shot at, and then in their scramble
they may hit a side of the boat with
the tail and splinter it. A wetting and
loss of provisions follow. The egr9t
is a shy bird. Their rookeries are In
places not easy of access, but may be
approached, in a small launch. The
birds roost in high trees standing in
water. The hunter approaches cau
tiously, anchors under the tree, and
then shoots from daylight until dark.
A fowling piece is the weapon used.
The bird falls near the canoe and is
picked up by the hunter. Dogs are
not used, because the alligators are
very fond of dogs. These Tookeries
contain from 10,000 to 30,000 birds,
about 13 per cent cf which may be
taken, as only the old birds are shot,
and then not until the youn ones are
able to take care of themselves, which
is wheu they are about six weeks old.
The seasou varies. In Central Amer
ica and Mexico it is from February to
October. The best time is in March,
April and May. After that the plume3
become a little ragged. Cn tha Orino
co the season is from about Sept. 1
to Jan. 1. There are big rooksries on
Arrene, a tributary of the Orinoco.
Two steam launches are now on that
river and have made considerable
money. Rookeries are on big cattle
ranches, owned by natives, who Jeal
ously guard them. A privilege costs
about $2,00 and 50 per cent of the
proceeds. Each bird is worth about
$125. The feathers for which they are
hunted grow on the back and hang
down over a short, stubby tall. About
8,000 ounces were shipped from the
Aprene rogion to New York last year.
This would approximate about 20?,
000 birds. The amounts shipped to
Paris and London are larger, but the
figures are not obtainable. There are
known to be immense rookeries on
other tributaries of the Oi iuoco 'which
have cot been approached because the
launches draw thirty-eight to forty
eight inches of water. In these
streams for six months in the year
during the dry season there is only
twenty-four inches cf water. Feathers
are plucked, and, after being assorted
Into grades 1, 2 and 3. are dried and
hermetically scaled in tin boxe3 for
Ehipment. They are used for millinery
purposes, and in the English army for
officers' helmets. Mr. Mourniann has
been a hvinter for three jears and in
tends going ba'ck in September next.
Story of a Slave.
To be bound hat:d and foot for
years by the chains of disease is the
worst form of sinvery. George D.
Williams, of Manchester, Mich . tells
how such a slave wrs m-.de free. He
9ays: "My wifo has been so helpless
for five years that she could not turn
over in bed alone. After using two
bottles of Electric Uiiters, she is
wonderfully improved and able to do
her own work." This supreme rem
edy for female disease quickly cures
nervousness, sleeples-soe.-, melan
choly, headache, backache, fainting
and di7zy spells. This miracle working
medicine is a godsend to weak, sickly,
rundown people. Every bottle guar
anteed. Only 50 cents. Sold by F. G.
Fricke & C v, druggists. 6
Fror-rb Proved.
The Parisian editor was greatly
exasperated. He gave expression to
numerous fervid and more or less lurid
ejaculations. "What's the matter'" in
quired his assistant. "I was just get
ting ready to write about the three
duels I fought to-day when I ran the
point of my pen Into my thumb. There
is no use in trying to deny It. The pea
is mightier than the sword."
Her Sadnesn.
Pa Halloa, Ethel! What's
wrong?" Ethel :'Why, Helen's got
engaged to Tom Barry." Pa "That
worthless young reprobate! No won
der you're sad." Ethel "Oh, it is not
that. I wanied to marry him myself."

CAN'T SCARE THE CROWS.
A man a rusty musket, and a sleelc.
wily black crow, the man in an abbre-
Tlated night dress, the musket charged
nearly to the muzzle, and the crow
cawing in perfect Indifference to the
man or gun, were the chief figures in
a scene presented at North Deerlng
Monday morning. The crow was but
one of a flock that bad been keeping
the man awake on a small tree within
a few yards of the man's sleeping
room. The gun had been in the family for
generation, and had not been fired for
1 many years, being one of that kind
of guns that is used to ornament the
mantels of many old houses in this
part of the country. Exasperated by
the cawing of the crows, the man de
termined on annihilating the flock if
possible, and decided to assume the
risk of personal injury attending the
firing of the ancestral weapon.
1
The crow began the solo abou mi 1
night, and continued without . .
until the poor man con''' ' ri
longer, and he stai. : , j
wipe the crow family oh ...e earth, or
that part of It lying contiguous to his
residential property. Pointing the gun
at the crow, which eyed the man with
a look of utter contempt, the man fired
and fell to the floor from the recoil
of the musket. His arm was nearly
driven from his shoulder, and his
i spine nearly telescoped by the force of
the fall.
Rubbing his Injuries the man rose,
willing to bear even the loss of an
arm If the crow had been put out '.f
existence. Evidently the crow was In
wonderment at the action of the maa,
as when the latter took another look
out of the window there was the crow,
gazing anxiously toward the window,
a look resembling a smile coming to

Demand for Bismarck's Memoirs.
The book which all publishers would
like to secure is the memoirs of Bis
marck. Many publishers have sent
their representatives to Germany In
quest of this book, but no one seems
to know very much about It. Is there
manuscript for such a book? The Lon
don Daily News' correspondent states
that the house of Cotta at Lelpsic has
had the manuscript under lock and
seal awaiting Bismarck's death. I. V.
F. writes to the New York Tribune
that the Cotta firm does not have the
manuscript and expresses doubt3 as to
its existence.

squashes, cucumbers, etc., cross readi
ly in their class; intermixture of fami
lies is not so frequent, yet is said to
occur. The results do not show In th
fruit of the current year, but in the
seed. A Long Island grower found that
watermeloas and muskmelons, grown
16 fee apart, or less, did not intermix.
Peter Henderson's rule was to grow
varieties of melons at least 100 yards
apart. A New Jersey reader found
cantaloupes grown within 50 feet of
cucumbers produced fruit smelling and
tasting like cuourabers.

Little
Pimples Turn
to Cancer.
Cancer often results from an Im
purity in the blood, inherited from
generations back. Few people are en
tirely free from some taint in the blood,
and it is impossible to tell when it will
break out in the form of dreaded Can
cer. What has appeared to lie a mere
j piuiple or scratch has developed into
the most malignant Cancer.
