The H. & M. have evidently become
tired of having employes of the shops
at Havelock live in the city of Lincoln,
and on the first of the month will dis
continue the daily train between the
two places. This move will have the
effect of causing the shop men to re
side in Havelock or provide their own
conveyances to and from work.
An eastern paper says that it's more
fun to see a man read a puff on him
self in a newspaper than to see a fat
man slip on a banana peel. The nar
row minded man reads it over seven or
eight times and then goes around and
steals appropriates what copies he
can. The kind-hearted man goes home
and reads it to his wife and then pays
up his dues to the paper. The suc
cessful business man who advertises
regularly and makes money by it im
mediately starts to find the editor and
speaks words of acknowledgement,
and then two men leave the s actum
and walk silently and thoughtfully
down the street together and the busi
ness man takes sugar in his'n and they
both eat a clove or two and all life is
sweeter and peace like a gentle dove
settles down on their hearts for that
moment. Such is the experience of
seed as it falls on different sod.
The Nebraska City News snys that
Matthew Uering was not satisfied
with the result of the recent base ball
game between the county officials of
Otoe and Cass counties, and has
authorized them to issue a challenge
lo the members of the Utoe county
bar. Matt said that he could select
nine lawyers in Cass county that could
beat any nine lawjers in Otoe county,
and they did not have to wait for any
time in which to practice. In this
challenge he stated very emphatically
that only lawjers in good standing at
the bar would be eligible to play, and
that no deputies or representatives
would be permitted.
The late rains assure the fall grain
crop. The rye is looking well, and
will make a large yield. The tall
wheat generally is in fair condition,
and that on new ground is good. Oats
never looked so well as this season.

You have an undoubted right to stop

count of your tenderness for an editor
He would quit buying where he
thought he was not getting his money's
worth, and why should you not
exercise the same privilege. And
when you discontinue a paper do so
manfully. Don't spitefully throw it
back to the post master with a con
temptuous I don't want it," and have
it returned to the editor with "refused"
written on the margin. No gentleman
ever stopped a paper in that way, no
matter if his head was covered with
gray hair. If you no longer wish to
receive a newspaper -write a letter to
the editor saying so, and be sure all
arrearages are paid.
A traveling man for a Iau-e bicycle
house remarked the other day that 1895
will be the biggest year ever known
for the wheel trade. Everybody seems
to want a wheel, and it will be but a
few years nntil they will be owned by
nearly every man and woman in the
country. A wheel is fast becoming an
indispensable article.
A French judge before whom a di
vorce case was recently tried compli
cated matters seriously by handing
down a decree divorcing the lawyer
who appeared for the man who had
asked for a divorce, instead of the man
himself. He got the names mixed in
his notes, and the tangle will take a
good deal of red tape unraveling.
It has frequently been suggested
that one of the most essent ial qualifica
tions for making a success of lying is a
reliable memory. The fellow who al
ways aims to tell the truth, has no
trouble in keeping track of what he
said upon a given date, concerning
such and such a matter. Try it.
timid or too clever to plunge into
crimes, lie is looked upon by :i majority
of the people as a drone who is of no
use to the community. Industrious
men are reluctant to permit these fel
lows to associate with their daughters,
and their old playmates who are mak
ing their way in the world by honest
industry shun their companiont-hip.
An Ohio girl recently sent her plio-
tocraph to herbe.it fellow and wrapped
it in a newspaper on which was printed
the advertisement of a stove firm. A
part of the print adhered to the pic
ture, and the young man was very
much surprised to see Blaring him in
the face, in bold pica t)pe, the follow
ing words: 'Seo name on leg."
Thos. K. Williams, of Louisville pre

Dame Humor appears to connect Tho
mas with the republican nomination
for sheriff next fall.
The sheriff of a neighboring county
went to serve a writon n certain young
lady, and upon knocking at the door
was admitted by the girl's mother, who
told him the young lady was in the
next room, to go in and get her. The
sheriff stepped into the room and
found the young lady in bed dressed as
for a living picture. He returned the
writ with the following endorsement:
"Found within named Lena Austin
same as her mother found her, and re
turned writ unsatisfied for want of
clothing."
A farmer near Tekamah, has entered
suit against ttie St. Paul and Omaha
road, which passes near his house
where there is a crossing. For a year
he kept a record of the number of times
the engineer failed to whistle at the
crossing and now brines suit for over
$7S,000. The fine for failing to whistle
at a crossing is $50 for each failure.
The corner room of the Fitzgerald
block, occupied by the First National
bank, has been undergoing some alter
ations and repairs during the past
week that add greatly to the appear
ance of that corner. The entire front
has been taken out and replaced by
large plate glass, and the entrance
changed from the middle to the west
side. This change will allow the alter
ation and improvement of the interior
or office fixtures, lint the best part of
all the many improvements around
this banking house is that the horrid
ereen wall paper that has adorned the
walls of late is to be covered by new
paper of a less inflammatory pattern.
The Lincoln News says: Whenever
Governor Helcotnb finds time hanging
heavily on his right hand he simply ap
points Dr. Abbott as superintendent
of the Lincoln asylum again. This is
pleasing to both the governor and the
doctor, and evidently makes no differ
ence with the present superintendent.
It cannot be said with propriety that
the state legislatures which have bus
ied themselves with public measures
in different parts of the country since
Christmas, have altogether satisfied
the people in regard to legislation on
the delays and expense of litigation.
A cheap and speedy means of redress
of grievances and settlement of dis
putes is badly needed. Along with
these there ought to be a general sim
plification of the ways to proceed. De
tails of reform are not for the press to
formulate, but whilst courts are being
multiplied and law machinery pro
vided, it would be well for the bar to
perfect a system whereby costs may be
largely reduced and the dispatch of
cases greatly accelerated.

The lawyers of the Otoe county bar

things rest with him.

Nature is busy at work doing her

is suffering from the spring cleaning
mania, is only yielding to the impulse
that pervades all nature. She is work

Traveling raen who traverse that
territory say that rain is sorely needed
between this city and Holdrege, that
the farmers are very much dis

suffered greatly on account of the dry

rain soon the loss of small grain will
be final and complete, while other
crops will be seriously affected.

The Cuban rebellion has been kept
alive more by guerrilla warfare than
by open fighting. An encounter be
tween rebels and Spanish troops oc
curred on April 10th at 1'alma Miros,
which resulted in dispersing the rebels,
after several of them had been killed.
Tho real trouble remains, however, as
it was in tho beginning. The leaders
of tho rebel parties, Maximo, Gomez
and J se Marti, have not succeeded in
landingou the island, and consequently
the rebel army is unable to make any
decided move. Even if the rebel army
were prepared to engage in an open
rebellion, there would be little chance
of its success against the large number
of trained Spanish troops, against
which they would have to figNt.
The fact that Spain considers the
Cuban uprising as a serious matter, is
shown in tho recent appointment of
General Martinez de Caulpos, Spain's
most famous soldier diplomat, to suc
ceed General Emilio Calleja, as cap-
tain-gene ral ot Cuba. General Mar
tinez de Campos has been a prominent
figure in Spanish affairs 'or many years.
On 1876 he was sent to Cuba to quell a
rebellion, which had been in progress
for twelve years, Ry his wise and de
cisive act the titngled thread of Cuban
affairs was soon unraveled, and peace
was restored. The restoration of the
house of IJjurbou to the Spanish,
throne, and the consequent fall of the
Carlist party, was due largely to the
efforts of the Spanish general. He
held the position of Spanish premirs
for fomf tint-, but resigned on ac
count of political changes. General
Martinet de Campos has arrived in
Cuba anil the leal cause of the trouble
will, it is thought, be found out, and
quiet agiin restored. He has already
offered pardon to all rebels, except the
leaders, that surrender of their own
accord.

To the afflicted:
Several years ao I discovered a
slight falling and bleedingof thelower
bowel which increased and became
very distressing. I made inquiry as
tothe nature of the disease and learned
that I had a somew hat aggravated case
of Hemorrhoids or Files. Was told of
several remedies aud used them" as di
rected, obtaining thereby some tem
porary relief. Not being satisfied with
such slipht relief I cast about for a per
manent cure; when a friend directed
the use of the famous Maonet Pile
Killer. I used it. Immediate relief
from pain followed, and soon a com
plete cure was affected.

A change has recently been effected
in the copyright law, which protects
the rights of an artist against having
his pictures copied by other persons or
firms.
Heretofore the picture copyright law
imposed a fine of $100 for each impres
sion of a copy of a photograph made in
defiance of the copyright law. In con
sequence of this law any large news
paper firm which; by accident or other
wise, published a copyrighted picture,
was obliged to pay a sum so great as
to leave the firm bankrupt. In fact
the sum required for any infringement
of this law was sufficient to induce
persona or firms possessing copyrights
to use fraudulent means to get other
firms to make copies of their pictures.
In view of the injustice of this law,
a change was brought about during the
last congress. The Ltw now provides
that the sum of not less than $100 and
not more than $1,000 shall be paid for
any infringement on a copyrighted
photograph, and that a sura not below
$230 and not exceeding $3,000 shall be
required for any infringement on copy
righted prints, etchings, paintings,
drawings, engravings, suatuary,models
or designs of any kind.
