Speaking of the trainmen's annual ball, to be held in Lincoln on New Year's eve, the Omaha Bee says: "The last day of the year promises to be a memorable one for trainmen employed by the Burlington system. They propone at that time to gather in Lincoln in numbers limited only by the requirement of trains that must be operated and give up the day to the seeking and giving of pleasure. In the afternoon the big auditorium will bo converted into a great concert hall and a j tint musical program will be rendered by the Burlington bands of Plattsmouth and McCook. This event will be for the benefit of the poor peo ple of Lincoln. In the evening the trainmen will give an entertainment unique in rail road circles in that they propose to ex tend a banquet to their officials. Tick ets of invitation will be issued to ail of the men having authority in the op erating and transportation depart- a a n r -4 r i t fa a at. i 2 rii r f o m plated.

Yes, August Flower stili has the lar gest sale of any medicine in the civi lized world. Your mothers' aud grandmothers' never thought of using anything else for Indigestion or Biliousness. Doctors were scarce, and they seldom heard of Appendicitis, Nervous Prostration or Heart failure, eta They used August Flower to clean out the system and stop fermen tation of undigested food, regulate the action of the liver, stimulate the ner vous and organic action af the system, and that is all thejr took when feeling dull and bad with headaches and other aches. You only need a few doses of Green's August Flower, in liquid form, to make you satisfied there is nothing serious the matter with you. Got Green's Prize Almanac. Tbe Woman' Club.

About a month ago an order was re ceived at the Builington coach chop in this ciiy for the construction of two sixty-foot mail cars.

These cars are to be used on the Billings line, and are eauioned with ail the moderu improvements, having the Harrison mail racks and each is sup plied with seven Pintsch gas lamps, It is said the Burlington officials are well pleased with the speed and work manship done on the Plattsmouth cars Three of these cars have also been built in the Pullman, Ills., shops Within the rast few months tho local shops have built five new curs, in addition to the two mail cars, and have repainted and otherwise overhauled on an average of fifteen cars por month. Convincing; Argument. The publisher of a tewspaper has one thing to sell and one thine to rent, remarks an exchange, lie hns copies of his paper to sell and space in its columns to rent. Can anyone inform us why he should be expected to give awav either tbe ooe or the other? He can, ' II he s chooses, ana ne anes. as a matter of ftct, furnish a great deal of space rent free. But it does not follow that ho ought to bj expected to do so. It ought to be recognized as a contrioution. exactly as wouia pe the givitg away of suga or coffee by a grocer. Hut, strange to say, it is not looked upon in that light at all; and yet exerybody knows that the ex istence of a newspaper depends upon the rent of its space and the sale of the paper, just as a merchant's suc cess depends upon selling goods, in stead of giving them away. Smallpox In a Chair Car. Another smallpox patient arrived in Omaha from the west and was sent to the emergency hospital, s.iys the Bee. His name is Martin Olson and hocarre from Denver to Omaha in a chair car. When ho left Denver he was feeling well, but before he arrived in Omaha he was taken with fever. Immediately upon hisarrival in Omaha he consulted a physician, who discovered that the man was suffering with smallpox and sent him to the health commissioner. Dr. Coffman ordered the man taen to the emergency hospital at once. (Xsorj is a young man about thirty years of age. For several weeks he Las b-en traveling through Colorado. Although he did not know that he was exposed to the disease, it is known to exist in several towns he visited. Olson offered no objection to being removed to the hospital.

Sheriff Wheeler Kottfled of the Theft, as There 1 a Probability That He la Beaded la This Direction Small Fire at the Rear of the Wctenkamp Build ing Other Local New. From Thursday's Dally. Sheriff Wheeler received a message from the sheriff of Lancaster county this morning, stating that a couple of mule colts were stolen near Lincoln last night, and requesting him to be ready to nab the thief in case he should come this way. It is said that the man who stole the animals is about forty years old, of dark complexion and that he is traveling over the coun try in a covered wagon. The owner of the mules is also an emigrant. A number of thefts of this kind have been reported to the Cass county au thorities within the past several weeks, but the thieves seem to take particular pains to steer clear of this section of the country. A Small Mime. The News force and several other citizens made quite a record as fire fighters shortly before dinner toaay. Hall & Son were engaged in putting a coat of tar on the roof of the eten- kanip block and had placed a large iron vat at the rear of tha News office, in which the tar was heated. While one of the assistants was engaged in bailing out the fluid, he allowed some of it to spill on the fire below, and in a moment the vat was completely sur rounded by flames. Tha prompt ap plication of water, however, prevented any serious damages, but for a few minutes the small outbuildings near by were in great danger. Wa Uellght tally Sarprled. The members of "Bud of Promise," D. of R., lodge No! 40, I. O. O. F.. planned a very pleasant surprise on Mrs. S. II. Fisher at her home in the Second ward Tuesday evening. De cember 4.

As she as expect ing a lady friend to spend the even ing, she was not frightened when she heard an alarm at the door, which the proceeded to open, when, lo! and be hold; not one alone, but several dozen, and all representatives of tbe lodge of which she has long been an honored memocr. Mrs. r isner was lnaeeci sur prised and for a moment stood speech less. Wonder, surprise and amaze ment were depicted on her counten ance as she looked over that crowd. However, taking in the situation and realizing that her friends bad come to spend tbe evening, 6he soon recovered j her composure and made everyone feel at home Each member of the party brought parcel, which proved to contain something good to eat. The evening was spent in social chat, music, songs. recitations and games. Refreshments were served, to which all did ample justice, and it wa near the 'wee sma' hours when all departed for their homes. Mrs. Fisher is soon to leave for the south, where she goes to visit a sister She ha9 been an indefatigable worker in the Rebekah lodge and the mem bers took this method of showing their esteem and appreciation.

The many comic il sit uations in the play kept the audience in the beat of humor from beginning to ecd, while the specialties intro duced were excellent. John J. Swart- wood, as "Leander Cobb" and Will Madden, who played the part of his son, showed that they were first-class actors. Oscar Lewis, as the Swede who was always "much obliged" and Sam Green as the Irishman, were char acters which gives the play an irresist able charm. The remainder of tbe company are all fine artists, but lack of s Dace forbids mentioning them The company left this morning to fill an engagement in Omaha. Coger Ueartl From. The report comes from Nebraska City that John Coger, the contractor of that place who disappeared three weeks ago, while fishing in the Mis souri river, has been beard from A letter, which has been identified as in Coger's handwriting, was receive from Falls City yesterday.

The latest ruling of tbe supreme court in regard to the Standard Oil trust case is that the company must come to the terms of Attorney General Smytbe and submit in books and pa pers to him for inspection In a writ ten opinion, by Judge Sullivan, tbe court assumes jurisdiction in the euit of the state to oust the company for violating the anti-trust laws of tbe state and sustain" the motion of tbe attorney general to require tbe com pany to submit its books .to investiga tion. Twice the attorney general made fatal errors in his motion to require the production of the books and twice it was overruled by the supreme court because of the errors, but the third time was the charm. Tn the mean time, the time set for the referees to report to the court was repeatedly ex tended. Fnrtber delay will now be necessarv for the re 'erees to inspect tbo books and tbe case will have to be taken charge of by Attorney General elect F. N. Prout after the first of the year. The court did not make an order setting a time or place for the inspec tion of the books and, as the motion does not cover that point, a definite order from the court may be neces sary before the work will be started. Tbe original motion asked that the books be produced in Nebraska, but the attorney general afterward struck out that clause. The company is in corporated in Indiana. WKF.FI NO WATKK NOTES.

FROM A LIVING TOtiB Thiity-Two Miners E.narge Alive end Unhurt, After Two Hours of Peril. 0AVE-IN SHUTS THEM IN THE PIT But Led by Their Brave and Cool Foreman They Dig Their Way to Life. Scrauton, Ta., Dec. C. Thirty-two men employed at the Xayaug colliery In Dunmore were entombed by a cave in yesterday morning, but thanks to a fortunate circumstance a terrible disaster was avoided. The men were at work about 1,000 feet from the bot tom of the slope and 400 feet below the curface, when two acres of the roof between them and the slope cauie down with a terrific crash, crushing the pillars and causing a rush of air that almost 1lew the men from their feet and hurled the roof off the fan house. Their lamps were ext n guished but finding that the air vas still pure, they re-lighted them and began to cast about for a way to es cape. Foreman Gibbon Goes to Kzplore. Some counselled remaining where tbey were until help should rrach them from the outside, but the crack ing of the pillars in their vicinity told them that the cave-in was extending towards them and that they must soon find a way out or be caught and killed lik rats in a trap. Foreman John Gibbons, who chanced to be with the men at the time, bade them keep cool and quiet and he would try to timl a way out. Crawling on his hands and knees over the fallen roof, and oine tlmes squirming through crevices that barely admitted his body, he made hi sway to within fifteen feet of the air-way which led to the second open ing, which it was presumed was not affected by the fall, as it is a namnv passage out through solid rock. Proceed to Die; Their Way Out. Returning for the men he had them take their tools and follow him. After a difficult and dangerous journey they reached the jiut where the fall blocked their way. This was at tacked with bars, picks and shovels and after an hour's work a passage : was cleared to the air-way. which I a they had counted upon was oprn. As fast as they could run they made their way to rlie second owning and thence to the surface, where they were greeted with wild hurrahs from the thousands who had gathered expect ing to see them brought out crushed and mniigwd corpses, if they were brought out at all. Inteime Kxritement Outnide. During the two hours and fifteen minutes intervening between the time of the cave-in and the rime the men emerged from the second opening the most intense excitement prevailed. Scores of volunteers, urged on by th:' piteous appeals of the wives and chil dren of the entombed men. descended the shie and in the face of the fact that the roof was continually working and that tons of rock were liable to drop at any moment they proceeded to attack the fall ami dig a passageway through it.
