Several World' Record ltroken. From Friday's Daily. The dirt track at The Denver Wheel i:ib park maintained its reputation for being the f astest track in America by having three records Dioken yester d.iy in the opening races of the na tional circuit meet. The lirst record to go was the one mil open, class A, paced by the quad ridden by Cruwell. IMppin, Beck and Hanks. C. U. Collins followed the quad so closely as to clip off two sec onds from the former record of 2:044 5. Harry Clark of Denver went for the one-mile, class A, unpaced record of 'J.10 held by A. H. Hughes of Denver, and succeeded in cutting down to 2:0-5 1-5, a world ;s record that will pr bably stand for the remainder of this racing season. The third record to be changed was the one-mile quad time, which was 1:54. Stone, Swan- birough, Dixon and Connihear, with all conditions favorable, lowered the time to 1:47 4-5. Orlanda Stevens; the Ottumwa won der bicycle rider, reduced the q-iarter- mile unpaced record at lledrik, Iowa, in the sensational time of :231-5, lowering the world's record for that distance. NEW TWO-YEA U-OLD COLT KECORD. The two-year-old colt. Tommy Brit ton, yesterday afternoon wiped out all race records at Lexington, Ky., by placing himself in a class alone, as the incomparable." The reco-d for two- ear-old Allies of 2:16$, held jointly by Sillican and Impetuous, has been beaten by half a second, and the honored title that Oakland Baron held as the king of racing colt trotters has passed ami a new name is written above all others, and Tommy Britton, 2:loi, is the king of his age, and by conservative horsemen is regarded as the ureaiest one ever bred. Obituary. Sarah, the beloved wife of K. B Sampsor. departed this life at two o'clock Thursday afternoon at the family residence in South l'ark,aftei suffering for some time with cancer of the stomach. Mrs. Sampson was known as a devout Christian lady, ami h hiving wife ami mother. Mr. and Mrs. Samp son and family removed to this city from Glenwood, Iowa, some eighteen years ago, and have resided here ever since. A husband and nine children are left to mourn her loss, and are as follows: Mrs. D. F. Foster. Mrs. Val Burkel. Will, Robert, James and David Sampson, of this city, Mrs. Alice Cur tis, of Sedalia, Mo., Mrs. Xellia Crea nin, of Tacoma, Washington, and Fred Sampson, of Columbus, Ohio. The fuueral occurred on Saturday afternoon at two o'clock from the M. IZ. church. Rev. Couffer, officiating, and the remains were iritemd at Oak Hill cemetery. I'uIk on m New Engine. The Burlington has put into service a ne .v engine on the fast mail betweeD Oman 4 and Chicago that promises to be something of a record breaker. The engine is Xo. ol0 and has just I een given its trial tests at (ialesburg, and is bfiug used for a few days on pas senger trains between Chicago and Galesburg and will then be put in the fast mail service. On the trial tiipi the engine, attached to four cars, made a mile in forty-three seconds, and on longer distances struck and maintained a speed of sixty-six miles an hour. In spurts it made an aver age of seventy-six miles an hour, and when once in active service is expected to furnish some records in fast time. Bee. In enumerating the agricultural and horticultural blessings of a bountiful 1'rovideuce this year, dear brethren, let us not forget the meek and lowly pumpkin. The pumpkin is not as pretty as a peach or r bunch of luscious grapes. Its neck is too small and its belly too large for horticultural beauty, but when the innards of the pumpkin get into a stew and become involved between the upper and netber crusts of an old Virginny pie crust, we'd like to see the human palate that wouldn't be tickled to death with the perform ance.

Jt is re ported that the director . general of railways in India has approved of forty-live new railway projects which, when carried out, will add over 6,000 miles to the railway. The friends of progress in India declare they must have 60,000 miles of railways. India seems to be waking up.

"Their generosity, as a general thing, receives the kicks and cuffs of the public, instead of its blessings. They have one comfort, however, and that is they will leave no estate for the sharks to gobble up after they have gone to the beautiful be yond. The Lord will give them a front seat in the big church made without hands, and order ttieir delinquents on tbe bleaching boards that skirt tbe great pavillion."

Nebraska City News. If Corbett and Fitzsimmons can be induced to hold out in their intention to "pull it off" somewhere in the United States, and keep on moving from state to state, several other governors will have an opportunity to make world wide reputations. The op portunity may never come again and the pug9 ought to give every living governor a show if possible. Lincoln Journal. San Jose, Cal., is the largest prune market in the world. In a single week that city has shipped to other markets 4,600,000 pounds. At Frascati, near Home, there is a bachelors' union, which recently pro tested against the overdressing and tbe general misconduct of the girls of the town, and resolved to boycott all those who did not heed the warning and to do all they could to prevent them from marrying Whereupon the girls of Frascati marched to the club room, forced their way in, tore up the circular and drove out the bachelors with clubs. I Here is the latent: "Maud Muller on a summer's day stuffed the manger full of hay. Her hat was there, but not the rake, for that was but a poet's fake.

' The young woman who was city li brarian in Omaha is alleged to have died from consumption, contracted in handling boofcs into which consump- tive persons had coughed. If librar ians are in danger from library books, readers are a No in peril. Perhaps a newspaper, fresh from the press, is the safest reading that can be indulged in while the earth is in its present state of health. A man up in Minnesota has sued that state for damages, because he was attacked and injured by a moose. The Nebraska City News says that "if he succeeds in getting a verdict by virtue of the contention he raises that as the state makes it unlawful to kill a moose at hi y time or in any circum stances, it is responsible for all acts its wards may commit, then it will be necessary to prepare f.r an advance in the rate of taxation all over the country. Game laws exist every where, nowdays, and when one thinks of how many people are bitten by trout each year during the clove season, of how many are devoured by partridge and prairie chicken?, and of the hecatombs annually sacrificed to ap pease the ferocity of woodcbucks and gray squirrels, the drain to which the treasuries of the various common wealths will be subjects can easily be imagined. At 20, when a man is young, he thinks he knows it all; he likes to wag his tongue and exeicise his gall: he struts about in noble rage; the world is all his own. tie laughs to scoru th- world of age and lists to slf alone; he wears a window in his eves, to see his whiskers grow; he thinks the ladies piue and die because they love him so. At 40, as you may suppose, he's knuck led down to biz; us not till 70 that he knows how big a chump he is. What will the new woman resort to next? Not content with the bloomin1 bloomers, a society belle in Topeka says an exchange, is so bothered by her sweetheart while buegv ridiner. that she now takes a baseball ma.4 and wears it when they net fairly ou' of town.

The Burlington carried just 223 peo pie out to inspect the Milford gold fields yesterday, says last Monday's Lincoln Journal Mr. Dillenbeck es corted the excursionists to the places on his land where signs of richres have been discovered. The demand for samples was enormous. A very rich find was unearthed in the sands along the creek. It is reported that the best samples were secured by Mor ris Turner and E. Hallett. and their joy over finding the "gold" was only equalled by their disgust when they found the stuff to be brass. A funny man had filled li is pockets with brass filings in a Lincoln bicycle shop dur ing the week in order to be prepared to have pome fun with the gold-hunl-ers on Sundav. Now corner a Milwaukee horse doc tor with the assertion that beneath the shaggy yellow blossoms of the golden rod flower lurks germs of a disease that is death to hortes. He claims that the horses which eat the tempting plant go into a gradual decline, the blood is destroyed, the tissues wasteaway. and they die in from three weeks to three months. This is a startling assault on Nebraska's favorite flower. It should be remembered that Milwaukee has been celebrating for a week, and it is not likely that the horse doctors resisted tbe deluge of local inspiration. Bee.

I made inquiry-as tothe nature of the disease and learned that I had a somewhat aggravated case of Hemorrhoids or Tiles. Was told of several remedies and used them as di rected, obtainiug thereby some tem porary relief. Not being satisfied with such slight relief I cast about for a per manent cure; when a friend directed the use of the famous Magnet Pilk Killer. I used it. Immediate relief from pain followed, and soon a com plete cure was affected. Very respectfully, Oscar Allen. For sale by Gering & Co. Take your jewelry repairing to Cole man. Plattsmouth.
