Til K eleventh nnmml reunion of old aettlerB will lo held at Union on Auu-t 18 and 1!. A big time is an tie i pateii. Tins Pino mountain weather wo are having in Nebraska is having a very bad effect on punmier resorts. It would bo diHieult to find a finer brand of weather. Somh of tho farm :rs who have corn planted on low lands are waiting until tho rainy season is over to cultivato it, a la Otis in tho Philippines. i . With an open fight by the I5eo and a fight among tho board of managers tho success of the Greater American exposition is not at all assured. Ik all the wrong doings credited to him are true about tho best thincr that has happened lately was forcing tho resignation of Superintendent O'Brien of tho Btato fishorios. Of courso this turn will nviko Henry Ilempol fool quite badly. Nit. Assistant Supeuintundext ok the Census Wines estimates that tho national census to ho taken in 1900 will enow 77,000,000. This is a gain of 15,000,000 in ten years. If tho same rate of increase is maintained, in 10o0 tho population of tho United States will bo 190,000,000. A populist was appointed as super intendent of the reform school at Plan kin ton, S. D., the other day and when the boys, who wero out playing ball, were ordered to form in lino they broke and run for liberty, saying as they did so, "The pops can't hold us." This is another hard shot on tho poor PP- Some years ago a story was invented to tho effect that Henry Ward Beecher had with deliberation declared that one dollar a day was enough for any wage-earner and sufficient to maintain any ordinary family. Mr. Beecher never 9aid any such thing. But dur ing his long and useful life his oft-repeated and truthful denial limped along away behind the sprintiDg lie. And bo Mr. Beecher died without vindication as to that particular slan der, but he has come to be universally acknowledged as one of the brainiest and best citizens who ever so persuas ively aud successfully addressed aud iences inimical to the United States in a foreign land and converted them from enemies into friends. The lie, however, "that one dollar is enough wages for any laborer," is still doing business ai the old rate aud gait. The remark has boeu falsely attributed first to one and then to another public man. It is told again and again with malice and envy, by men who ought to know that no person with common sense enough to have acquired reputa tion as a public man, could or would have been ever capable of such idiocy. But lies leap and truth crawls. A NOT II E It KiriU-FIKK PKACeJiAKEK Notwithstanding tho universal wl9h of civilized humanity that war shall bo abandoned as a means of settling disputes between nations, the ingenu ity of inventors is being taxed to in crease the efficiency of the instruments of slaughter, eaj's the Times-Herald. It is comforting to reflect, however, that tho improvements now being made in tho engines of destruction are all in the direction of making the battles of the future a question of hours instead of days possibly min utes instead of hours. War will Ye none the less horrible, but the engage ments will be brief and the destruc tion will be swift and decisive. Whole regiments will be swept away by single guns, and there will be little opportunity for the daricg hand-to-hand encounters that were the fea tures of many of the bloodiest conflicts of the civil war. It would seem thatinventive ingenu ity had reached the limit of its possi bilities in the production of rapid-fire guns when one recalls the slaughter of the rebellious savages at Omdur man by Kitchener's guns. But a new record for rapid-Ore guns has jut leen made on the proving grounds of the Driggs-Seabury Gun company at Derby, Conn. The gun, which was a six-pounder, made a record of sixty shots per minute, which was twenty five better than the record of the most modern rapid-fire gun. With such destructive powers as this the gun i will doubtless play an important pirt in the national defense. Tho work of increasing tho destruc tive capabilities of the modern rapid fire gun is justified on the score that if we must have war it should be as brief as possible. Let the action bo short, sharp and decisive. The per fection of these weapons by mechan ical skill is also defended on the ground that the more terrible their possibilities of slaughter the more certain aro they to invito universal peaco. INKOItMATION AND OI'INION. Pive Evanston (HI.) womei. t-chool teachers resigned to yet married. Now tho school hoard is hiring men, on the plea that woman is uncertain. Miss Stella Sisson of A insworth died Priday from the effects of a rattloKiPike blto. She ws a teacher and wiu on her way homo, when the was attacked by the poihonoux reptile. Five tons of dynamite wero e.x ploded on the summit of Big Bull mountain, a milo from Victor, Colo., and 1'J,000 feet above the sea, on tho Fourth, with the idea of furnishing a good imitation of a minature earthquake, hut the re sulting disturbance was very like tho real thing. No one was hurt, hut tho town was pretty well shaken up and tho shock was felt as far away as eighty miles. Spencer Pratt, United Statos consul at Signapore, who has been credited with having exceeded his authority in making promises to tho Filipinos in tho early stages of our occupation of tho Philippines, brought suit recently agaiiit tho publishing firm in Signa poro that put out a book in which was given in detailed form an interviowal leged to have taken placo between Mr. Pratt and Auinaldo. The court found that tho story of tho interview was falso and libelous and further pub lication of tho book was prohibited. The story of the boy who can, whilo in a hypnotic state, see through peo ple, examine their hones and locate diseases, has about capped tho climax, and all the anxious public now havo to wait for is tho person who can see tho conscience of an ico man, tho heart of the average mu'.o drivor or the soul of a llirt, and while ho is in search of tho invisible he might he able to detect cash in the printer's pocket. When , this can ho done there is no need to try further. In India tho Hindoos havo estab lished homos or asylums for aged and infirm boasts and birds One of these, near tho Sodepur Station, and about 10 miles from Calcutta, is under tho con trol of a manager, with a staff of SO servants and an experienced vetinary surgeon. In this placo at piescnt thero ure 979 animal paupers 129 bulls, 307 cows. 171 calves, 72 horses, l.J water buffaloes, 09 sheep, 15 goats, 141 pigeons, 44 cocks and hens, 4 cats, 3 monkeys and ;" dotrs. The asylum is described as bein systematically and mercifully managed. Tho cows have especially a good time of it, inasmuch as on festal occasions natives go from far and near to decorate and worship them. One of tho established sights of the city of Bombay is the Pinjra pole, a spot whither wornout or dis eased creatures are sent by benevolent Hindoo citizens, and are maintained until they bocome restored to health or die. la Spain Hebrews are not permitted to erect and maintain houses of wor ship. They have no civil rights and exist in the kingdom only as aliens. i Twenty-five years ago France was able to put as many soldiers in tho field as Germany. Today it falls short by about 1,000,000 men. Iceland is probably the one country in the world which gets along with a single policeman. The descendants of the Vikings have no need of police men. The solitary officer, in spite of his great responsibility, has a very easy time. He is maintained more for ornament and dignity than for use. The Icelanders think it weuld not do to have a capital without a policeman, and so they keop one. DAA1SELS FR0A1 DARKTOWN. I'. K. O. Minstrel Show l.ilcrjilly Patron ized the Second Time. A repetition of the P. E. O. min strel entertainment on Saturday even ing did not attract as large an audi ence as on the previous night, but thoa who wero present thoroughly enjoyed tho novel spectacle of so many Platt&mouth society ladies masquerad ing as "persons of color." The cos tume dance by the Misses Agnew and Levings was a revelation of graceful postures and was much admired. Solos wero sung by Misses Petts, Gygor, Green, Swcaringen and Hall, and beautiful chorus singing by the troupe the selections being the latest coon songs wero greatly en joyed by the audience. The participants in the cake-walk which closed the entertainment were Mrs. Swearingen and Miss Murrey, Miss Heisel and Miss Black, Miss Ag new and Miss Green, Miss Mauzy and Miss Murphy. Friday evening Mr9. Swearingen and Miss Murrej'took the cake, while on Saturday evening the applause was divided, the honors and cake being shared by the Misses Ag new and Heisel and their escorts. It was rather difficult to discriminate, as the participants all did exceedinglj' well. The P. E. O. societv is to be con gratulated on their successful enter tainment and much eredit is due to Miss Hail and her assistants. Miss Matilda Vallery and Miss Lou Smith also added greatly to the success by their skillful accompanying of the various songs on the piano. Mi3s Kauble and Mr. Eigenbroadt were also valuable additions and were listened to with much pleasure.

P. G. Pricke & Co. UAILHOAD NOTES AND PERSONALS The Burlington pay car arrived this morning and distributed tho usual amount of wealth among the railroad men. ''Nothing waited" appoars to bu the order of tho day in every branch of in dustry. The use of discarded locomo tive flues for the manufacture of iron fence poets is the latest illustration of thi- fact. The idea was put in practice some time. ago by T. E. Calvert, gen eral superintendent of tho Burlington lines at Lincoln, Neb. Tho advantages the Burlington linds in its new post aro that they will not burn nor decay like tho old stylo posts of wood. Th c iuso of failure of more than one-half tho wooden fence poets along tho Bur' lington lines has been lire. The details of tho manufacture of tho new posts from old engine Hues aro so arranged that two workmen can turn out fifty posts per day. Tho Burlington will use a large number this year to replace wooden posts. Valuing the discarded engine Hues at what they would bring for scrap iron, and counting tho cost of labor, the new iron fenco posts are turned out for cents apiece, about tho same as a wooden fenco post costs vv. ii. tiark, wno has icon om ployed in tho Burlington shops for some time, has resigned and gone to South Omaha to work in tho packing house. Sim Sawtelle, the railroad contra tor, was in town today shaking hands with old friends. l rain iso. s on ttio J .urlington, i un ning from Pacific.

Al Ilat kins, who has boon tho night hammersmith in the Burlington shops for the past two month, has resigned his position and gone to Omaha where he has accepted a like position with the Union Pacific. Charlie lliatt, who is employed in the Burlington storo house, is taking an enforced layoff by reason of having punctured his thumb with a nail. In a j ear there are killed on Araeri can trains one person out of every 2,827,474 passengers carried. A great rainy curious conclusions are reached by statisticians on this b.tsis, and upon what is known as the law of averages. Tho amount of it all is that one is safer on a railroad than he is in his own house. Less danger i incurred in going from Chicago to Denver, even on the fast schedules now used by the Burlington, than in going on a street car from one's home to the dpot. The average ' man travels 72,093,9(53 miles on trains, tak ing them as they come on all lines, be fore his turn comes to get hurt. Cur tis Enterprise. lhe greatest diving leat ever achieved, it is said, was in moving the cargo of the ship Cape Horn, wrecked off the coast of South mer- ica, when a diver named Hooper made seven descents to a depth of over 200 feet, remaining at one time forty-two minutes under the water. An author ity states that tho greatest depth to which a mau has been known to de scend does not exceed 220 feet which is equivalent to a pressure of 88i pounds to the square inch. Story of a Slave. To bo bound hand and foot for years by the chains of disease is the worst form of slavery. George D Williams, of Manchester, Mich., tells how such a slave was made free. He says: "My wife has been so helpless for five years that she could not turn over in bed alone. After using two bottles of Electric Bitters, she is wonderfully improved and able to do her own work." This supreme rem edy for female disease quickly cures nervousness, sleeplessness, melan choly, headache, aokache, fainting and di7zy spells.
