The little Republics in South Amc ru*a, are getting ready to eat each other up from present outlook. The battleship Iowa, is on its wav down the Pacific to the Isthmus, to see that Old Glory is kept at the proper elevation. A large passenger steamer, the Island, struck a submerged ice berg in the Lynn canal, up in Alaskan waters last Saturday morning and sunk in 23 fathoms of water. La' est reports claim about sixty five casualties. General Manager Dickinson of the ‘ U. P. system, lias issued a general order to the etfect that habitual drinking and frequenting places where intoxicants are sold, will be considered sufficient, grounds for dis missal from the service of that road. The Republican county conven tion was held in this city Wednes day, and was organized by electing Dr. H. R. Calmer of Litchfield for chairman and (1. II. Gibson of Loup City, secretary. The regular routine business was taken up and after the permanent organization wa affected the delegates to the state convention were elected as follows: W. R. Metier, C. J. Tracy, A. Wall, R. J. Nightingale, A. li. Cotter and Theo. Ojcndyk. A, Wall was elected chairman of the County Central Com mittee, after which the convention took a recess to Sept , 17, at which tt ne a full set of county officers will be nominated. The European governments gener ally are exercising their sympathies for the wellfure of the little South American Republics to a highly ab normal extent since there seems to be a prospect of an extensive row down there. France is offering gratis advise in the way of off hand sympa thetic suggestions and sliding in a war vessel or two to make it bind ing, while other countries are east ing covetous glances in that •direc tion, but the order from Washington the other day, directing the North At’antie squadron to precede at once to Hampton Roads for general evolutions, will no doubt, be heard at every government center in the ( lit world, and be a gentle reminder that the Monroe doctrine is still in full force and effect. The next charge to be hatched op against Admiral Schley is said to b« that he was drunk at llie battle of Santiago. He must have used the same brand of whiskey Grant did as it had the same effect on the enemy. These petty chi'dish charges will do the Admiral no harm, and shows the real animus of the whole affair. It does more, it shows the contempt able lengths some people will go to gain a point or destroy their betters. Schley done what the people expect ed him and is the simon pure hero of Santiago, and the more spleen is ex hibited over the matter the more the tribunal of the < ornmon people will exonerate him for petty breaches of the rules of the navy, as long as his disregard of orders proved to be the right thing.

We did not get away here this morning on Recount of a press of business and the failure to appear of a gentleman who was to attend to it, and as I had a little time at the Im perial Hank L will write a little more. The weather is nice, cloudy today. It rained this morning and the streets arc some muddy, but as they are well paved they are not had.

'Yu were invited to take a ride, so 1 will try and finish. 1 am trying to write while the train is running at full speed. To make it short, we are in a poor part now compared with what wo have seen, yet if l had some of our Nebraska cattle here they would laugh I am making a much longer trip of it than I expected when I started I expect when complete my ramb lings will have covered at least 1,000 miles, as we are traveling well over the country from east to west.

Thomas Nelson did for Virginia what Robert Morris did for th ■ nation —saved the state from hand.• :pu-y by devoting to her use his large fortune, says a writer in Lippincot;. When : i was in command of the state militia at Yorktown the exigencies of the turn seemed to require the des . on 1 of a certain large and imposing build ing in the place. It. is sad to know that this gadant Virginia congress man and governor was so embarrassed by the loans that he bad made to his state to pay its regiments w ion there was no money in the treasury, that in his last remaining days his remain ing property was sold to pa- i s ■ ! He was but 51 when he died, worn out by anxieties and years of ill-health. I Vsnlty nml the Handkerchief. The handkerchief was first popular ized in pood society by the Empress Jo ephine, who had irregular and black teeth, and, to conceal them, held her lace handkerchief before her mouth whenever she laughed. I.noac Struck Jt Rich. Captain A. F. Eneas, the discoverer of oil in Beaumont, Tex., who is said to be worth $40,000,000, was practically penniless a year ago.

The improvement in the dry goods trade continues, and the market grows stronger every day. says the Wall Street Journal. The condition of the cotton market supports higher prices for goods.
