I THE NEBRASKA INDEPENDENT. February 13, 180G. 3 V X f4 BATS STOLE THE ECCS. Clever SUnoir la Which the Kodeatl Got Away With Their bmIj. Mount Morris Special to Buffalo Ex press: Young Lewis Johnson has bee missing a good many hens' eggs lately Yesterday he detected the thief, but h did not catch him. It was a large graj .rat As soon as Lewis heard the hen 'ackle he ran out to the barn and found "s. ie rat carrying off the egg, still warm The way he hit It was curious. Lying on his back, the rat was clasping the egg tightly with his four legs, and an other rat was draging him off by the tall. The rat that was supplying the motive power was the first to notice tht approach of Lewis his companion in mischief was too busy balancing the egg to notice anything. When he saw Lewis the rat did not give up the attempt. On the contrary, he redoubled his ef forts to drag his load out of harm's way With his pal's tell tightly gripped in his teeth, he yanked and tugged away to ward a hole in the wall under the calf's feeding trough. Meanwhile his com panion, the receiver of the stolen goods who, In the circumstances, was quite as bad as the thief, kept squealing quite lustily. Probably the cinch which hia comrade's teeth had 'on his tail was painful. But he was game. He hung on to the egg like a good fellow. The othei rat would drag him around every ob struction with the nicest Intelligence, never once losing his grin. He gripped the tail; the owner of the tail gripped the egg. Lewis opened his eyes to their fullest extent and stared In astonish ment Then he got a dab. By this time the thieves were very nearly off with their booty. Throwing his club, Lewis scared them oft on the very point of success. He recovered the egg, but the thieves got away. Putting the egg In his pocket, he went to the hen house and secured a china egg, which he placed in the nest In the manger. Then he hid behind the strawstack and awaited developments. Pretty soon two sniffing noses appeared, then a gray body with hair ruffled the wrong way on its back. The rats went to the nest again and toted the china egg out on the ground. But they didn't like the looks of it. They would carry It a short distance and then stop and sniff it, bunting It about with their noses. After some moments of these football tactics the carrier rat tried to get hold of the egg, but he could not ac complish It. It was so smooth and pol ished and slippery that It eluded him every time he put his paws on it Then they tried to bunt It along, but this was not a success. "Every time they bunted it away It would go In the wrong direc tion. Finally the locomotive rat got angry and bunted the other one. This precipitated a small rat riot, which ' Lewis took advantage of to try and get between the rats and the hole under the trough. But he stubbed his toe In his haste, and forgetting all about the egg In his pocket, smashed it. The rats scampered off and Lewis hurried sor rowfully to the house and tried to tell his mother about the strange sight In the barnyard, but she thought he was fibbing to excuse the breaking of the egg in his pocket, and gave him a good licking, accompanied by an admonition to always tell the truth. There are red rings under Lewis' eyes today, and red welts on other parts of him, but he sticks to the story, and he and his father have resolved themselves into a committee of investigation into the rat question, and when they get their proofs they will confront Lewis' mother and secure a vindication for Lewis. Herbert Spencer and the Blackie Family. One afternoon Mrs. Blackie and the writer, sit'-'S on a garden seat, noted a weary wayfarer with dusty boots open the little gate and climb up the foot path. He wore a soft wide-awake and gray clothes and displayed no badge of saintship or lantern of philosophy. "A dominie for Pro.," said Mrs. Blackie. The professor's voice was ringing out from the open window of his turret study, laden with soft Gaelic gutturals. It ceased and the dominie stood under the porch. A few minutes passed and Bella came flying to the garden seat "Please, mum, it's Mr. Herbert Spencer in the drawing room and the professor is not to be found." He had closed his book and gone by the back door to breathe on the "sublime heights" be fore dinner. yfaced the illustrious visitor, who re- stored our composure by abusing the highlands, libeling the inn-keepers and accusing our sex of bribing porters with threepenny bits and so compassing every railway disaster ever recorded. With some indignation we flung our gauntlet in the face of the "father of modern philosophy," and it is to be feared that he fled from such unwonted treatment. "This has been a very stormy Interview," he said and took his leave. And just afterward, returning V from his walk, the professor missed his visit. "John Stuart Blackie," by A. M. Stoddard. Paderewskl and the Han jo. The other day, when Paderewskl was dining at a hotel, a fine nickel plated banjo was sent in by a banjo player, v' with the request that the great piano player should write a short musical sentiment on the sheepskin head. Pade rewskl complied with the request and this is the sentiment to which he at tached his signature: "I have not the pleasure of being a performer on this beautiful instrument; am only a piano player." Now the banjo player is asking his friends if the virtuoso was "jolly ing" him.

Desperate Character Whose Appearaae Belles Their Acta. The women in the Neudorf convent prison were all so kindly in their-waya so peaceful and good-humored, the; differed so completely from our precon ceived ideas of criminals, that we were puzzled to imagine what could have brought them into prison, says a writei in the Corn hill Magazine. We had never a doubt that their offenses were of the most trivial nature and we said so. The superior gave us one of hei odd, humorous smiles. "Did you notice that woman in the corridor?" said she. "She is Marie Schneider." That insignificant-looking little woman who had stood aside with a gen tle, deprecative smile to allow us to pass, Marie Schneider? Why, in any other place one would have set her down at once as the hard-working wife of a struggling curate, so thoroughly respectable did she look. And she is Marie Schneider, a European celebrity with more murders on her conscience than she has fingers on her hands! "And you let her stay here?" "We have nowhere else to put her," the inspector, who had joined us, re plied, "and we don't hang women in Austria." Nor is she, as we soon found, the only notoriety in the place. One of the pris oners is a delicate-looking girl, with large brown eyes and golden hair a type of beauty almost peculiar to Aus tralians. She has a low, cooing voice and a singularly sweet innocent ex pression. "What on earth can that girl have done to be sent here?" I whispered. "Done," the inspector replied, grim ly, "set a house on fire in the hope of killing a man with his wife and five children." The girl must have had extraordin arily sharp ears, for, though we were standing at some distance away, she heard what he said, and she gave htm a glance such as I hope never to see again in my life. It was absolutely dia bolical; had there been a knife within reach the man would have died on the spot Yet only a moment before she had been looking up into my face with a smile an anil might have envied. Several of the prisoners are in the convent for killing their own children; some for killing, or trying to kill, their husbands; others for stealing or em bezzling; others, again, for no more serious crime than begging. There are all degrees of guilt there, in fact, and all ages, from girls of 16 to women of nearly 80. And they all live together on terms of perfect equality; for there are no distinctions of rank there no one is better or worse than her neigh bor. When the convent door closed behind them they have done, for the time being, not only with the outside world, but with their own past. They start life afresh, as it were. HAD TO PAY TWICE. Plight of an Ocean Traveler Wht Lost HI Ticket. There was one young man on the steamship New York, says the New York Times, who paid well for his pas sage. When it came time to present his ticket to the steward it was not to be found. Pockets we.e turned inside out trunks were turned upside down, hat bands torn out and a stateroom con verted into a wilderness of pillows, bed clothes and clothing. The unfortunate passenger asked every man, woman and child on the ship: "Have you seen ticket No. 1,601?" Notices were posted on the bulletin board. The next day the passenger lost his identity. Everybody called him "1,601." From that time he was" known by his ticket number. "Have you seen Mr. '1,601,' to-day?" some one would ask. Then a dozen voices would ask: "Which '1,601,' the man or the ticket?" After the big dinner Thanksgiving day, Mr. "1,601" gave up the struggle and paid $125 for his passage. This i3 the way he figured it up: "I have examined the first and sec ond cabin passengers and know every thing they possess. When I state that the New York customs authorities won't get within a few thousands of what is due them I give expert testi mony. "The steerage had 202 passengers in it. It would take me at least three days to examine them, and that would bring me into Sunday, and as we are due Saturday, I guess I'll give It up." When "1,601", left the pier yesterday he was better known than the purser. Now is the time to buy Shoes, The Foot Form Store 1213 O Street. Are having their 25 per cent discount Sale. A High Old Time. A picnic 10,500 feet above sea level wes recently given on the top of the Languard, in Southern Switzerland, by Sir Seymour and Lady King. The women were carried up on chaises by a porteur, used for the first time on the mountain, by Italian bearers, the Swiss mountaineers having refused to undertake the risk. Timely Warning.

TAIi TROUBLES EASILY CUBED BY A NEW AND SAFE METHOD. A Semarkaele Number of Cares Mad by the Pyramid Pile Cure, About one person in every four suffers from Home form of rectal disease. The most common and annoying is itching piles, indicated by warmth, slight mois ture and intense, uncomfortable itching in the parts affected. The usual treatment has been some simple ointment or salve which som times gives temporary relief, but nothing likea permanent cure can be expected from such superficial treatment. The only permanent cure for itching piles yet discovered is the Pyramid Pile Cure, not only for itching Piles, but for every other form of piles, blind, bleeding, or protruding. The first application gives instant relief and the continued use for a short time causes a permanent re moval of the tumors or the small para sites which cause the intense itching and discomfort of itching piles. Many physicians for a long time sup posed that the remarkable relief afforded by the Pyramid Pile Cure was because it was supposed to contain cocaine, opium, or similar drugs, but such is not the case. A recent careful analysis of the remedy showed it to be absolutely free from any cocaine, opium, or in fact any poisonous, injurious drugs whatever. For this reason the Pyramid Pile Cure is probably the only pile cure extensively recommended by physicians, because it is so safe, so prompt in the relief afforded and so far as known the only positive cure for piles except a surgical operation. In one year the' Pyramid Pile Cure has become the best known, the safest and the most extensively sold of any pile cure before the public. Nearly all druggists now sell it at 501 cents and f 1 per package. Address the Pyramid Co., Albion, Mich., for book on cause and cure of piles and also hundreds of testimonials from all parts of the United States. If suffering from any form of piles ask your druggist for a package of Pyramid Pile Cure and try it tonight. DISPOSAL OF WASTE. Million of Gallon of Grease and Refuse to Be Bared. In not a few of our great cities the de velopment of industries and manufac tures has been accompanied by the seri ous pollution of neighboring streams The city of Providence, R. I., has foi this reason had under consideration foi the past five years the question of the disposal of manufacturers' waste. A joint special committee was appointed by the city council to look into the mat ter and this committee has finally made its report, with the introduction of a resolution directing the city solicitor to apply to the general assembly at its next session for the passage of such legislation as will prohibit the pollu tion of the rivers by emptying into them any waste, grease, acids, dye stuffs, sewage, ashes or other refuse or waste substances, liquids or materials. The committee is of the opinion that the problem can be readily solved with out serious inconvenience or great financial outlay to the manufacturers and without imposing additional bur den upon the taxpayers of the city. When the committee was confronted with the amount of material which is dally thrown into the rivers it was amazed. It was found that 6,000,000 gallons of manufacturers' refuse are turned Into these rivers daily, as well as about 50,000 pounds of grease, and the quantity of logwood, acids and other substances that is emptied in it is far in excess of what is generally supposed. The consumption of raw wool in the Olneyville manufacturing district is from 20,000,000 to 25,000,000 pounds a year. There is a loss of about 50 per cent in the process of washing and prepar ing the wool for use in the mills. It is the waste from this that forms the prin cipal annoying source of river pollution. The fatty matters floating down the stream lodge in the bed of the river and, becoming decomposed, escape in the form of gases, as shown by the bub bles upon the surface of the water, which cannot add to the health of the community. With a plant of sufficient size it would be possible to obtain the entire amount of grease scoured from the wool washings. There are in this country several large mills recovering from their wool-washing liquors enough grease and other valuable mat ters to more than pay the cost of purifi cation, Exchange.
