THE NORTHWESTERN OKO. E. 1IHN8CHOTER, Editor • Pab. LOUP CITT, NEBRASKA. NEBRASKA NEWS. Farmer*' Coin* at the State University. The University of Nebrsaka baa juat leaned a very attractive pamphlet de scriptive of the achool of agriculture, which every farmer should send for. This course in Agriculture is altogether the moat complete, practical and com mon venae thing of the kind that has ever come under our observation. Itts something that no farmer’s boy or girl of any ambition can afford to misa The people in charge of the school realize the fact that most farmers' sons Bud daughters cannot afford the time and money required in the preparation for and completion of a regular course, but that in farming as in any other business education and training pay. Keeping this in view, they have pre pared a snort, practical course of three months, beginning Dec. ‘.'9, 1890, and ending March 19, 1897. It provides for the following studies: Soil tillage, diseases of farm animals, stock breed ing und judging, feeding cattle and hogs, farm dairying, fruit raising and vegetable gardening, carpentry and blacksmithing, domestic economy, etc. An explanation given In the circular of the" manner in which the instruction is given shows that the student ob tains much of it by actual practice and observation. Not that he will be ex pected to do the work of the farm with which he is already familiar, but such operations aa judging stock, milk test ing, improved methods of butter-mak ing, tree grafting, treating sick ani mals, etc. No examinations are required for en trance.

BIC PARADE IN NEW YORK. Onr Hun tired anti Ten Thousand Hold Standard Men In l.lne. Nkw Yohk, Nov. 2.—To-day was the day set for the great final parade of the Republican organizations, and practically no business was done in the mercantile establishments, the interest in the demonstration obliging even those not in sympathy with the Repub lican cause to suspend operations for the day. Hours liefore there was any chance of the advance guard of the great parade appearing the sidewalks on either side of the streets named in the line of march were scarcely pass able. Along the route of the parade, from the Mattery to Fortieth street, there was a remarkable display of Hags and hunting. On Mroadway and Fifth avenue were myriads of American flags of all size* and thousands of yards of hunting. At short intervals huge flags Waring the names of McKinley and ilohurt. and. in some instances, cam paign lie>ttoes, stretched across the street. One large flag dealer estimated that not less than >.'>00,(NX) hud Wen spent by the business men of New York in decorating their establish ments. and it is figured that MXI.IXX) flags were waving to-day.

Hkri.in, N ov. .—Prince Bismarck apparently is not alarmed by the threats to prosecute him, for his organ, the Hamburger Nachrichten, to-day replied to the broadside of the official Reichs Anzciger of Tuesday, which in timated that the fate which overtook Count von Arnim might await those who disclosed secrets of state. The Nachrichten says: "The negotiations of those days (of Bismarck's tenure of office) were no strict state of secrets, but belonged to history. There is no ne cessity for. secrecy so far as Germany and the dreihund is concerned, as the treaty was made solely in compliance with Russia's wish and Germany had nothing to Is- ashamed of. (hi the con trary, all peace-loving Germans have just satisfaction. It is totally untrue that the treaty implied disloyalty to the dreihund. The latter even allowed Austria to be neutral in the event of a French attack upon Germany or an unprovoked German attack on Russia. The whole dreihund could incorporate in It if Russia was willing and conclude the same argument without abandon ing its main purpose. This would tranquilize all the friends of peace, and if there is any inclination on the part I Russia it would lie expedient to re new the Russo-German treaty." The Hamburger Nachrichten then takes the Reich's Anzciger to task for saying of its announcement of the ex istence of the Rusao-Gerinun treaty that “It will neither correct what is falsi- nor supplying what is incom plete," saying: "The statement made is not false, us declared by the Reich's Anzciger, and the latter can only sup plement what It declares to be incom plete by publishing the whole treaty. Under these circumstances the Ham burger Nachrichten considers itself en titled to demand u public ratification, as required by the press law, of the Wi-l(>h*U A rivoiiroe's ukkortinn ” Kii(llah Wheel* Not Wuntril. Washington, Nov. 2.—According to reports from United States Consul Parker at Birmingham the trade of that place with the United States in bicycle materials is steadily declining and promises to terminate altogether in a short time.

ILL SINCE GIRLHOOD. NOW A PICTURE OF HEALTH. From the Star, Valparaiso, Ind. The attention of the Star having been called to several cases of radical cures effected by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, it was determined to in vestigate some of the more notable of these cases, with a view to disseminat ing exact information on the subject and benefiting others who were suffer ing. Prominent among those who had experienced benefits from the use of this remedy was mentioned Mr* Mary Noren, wife of John Noren, a prosper ous farmer, living northeast of Valpar aiso, Ind.. and to her a reporter was accordingly dispatched. Mra Noren was found busily engaged in household duties, but she found time todetall her experience, and was willing and even anxious that the benefits she had felt should be told fur the benefit of those who had suffered as she did. *T had been ill since girlhood with a complication of complaints," said Mr* Noren, "never so much as to be confined long in bed, but 1 suffered intense mis ery. My chief trouble was with my stomach. 1 felt » constant gnawing fiain that was at times almost distract ng, and which had been diagnosed by different physicians us dyspepsia and sympathetic derangement dependent on the condition of the generative organ* I had pains iu the back, sometimes so great as to make me unable to work, and frequent bilious attack* I also suffered greatly from constipation, from which I never could find permanent re lief. Then these symptoms were agra vated by rheumatic pains between the shoulder blades, which were most ex cruciating in damp or cold weather. After my marriage about five year* ago, and when my baby was horn the trouble seemed to increase, uud i was frequently so aick that 1 could not dr. my household work. I tried differed1} K clans and used numerous remedies 11 in vain, until one day last fall I happened to read of Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People. My husband go* i three boxes from Mr. C. I). Kusliton, A the druggist, and 1 began to use them. From the first 1 began to feel relief, and before the three boxes were gon* I wfiH npnrlv wpII. 'I ronsti nation was cured and the other troubles were ho much relieved that J frit belter than I had felt for years. As 1 continued in the use of the pills I grew better and strong, my appetite was more natural, and my lfesh increased, until I am in the condition you sec me now." Dr. Williams' Dink Dills contain, in a condensed form, all the elements nec essary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves.
