Miss Stone the American mission ary has been released from her prison so has Mme Tsilka who was captured with her in tire district of Salonika. They were well and strong and seemed to have go< d treatment during their captivity. Most any country could afford to care well for its prisoners for $00, OOO'OO per head. President Roosevelt has submitted his unswer to the appeal of Admiral Schley, for a rehearing. He accords praise to both Schley and Sampson but in the main agrees with, and seems to be satisfied with the fiudings of the court of inquiry. He seems fully satisfied that no good can result from the reopening of the unhappy controversy. There is a constant and increasing demand for the bonds of the United States and they are selling at 108 and three-eights, a remarkable price for a two per cent bond. The four per cents are selling as high as 140 and one-half. In contrast with our prices are those of British “consols” once thought to be the standard investments of the world. They are at 95, and the French ,‘i per cents are at par. German threes are below ninety. A nother assurance of United States prosperity. There is often a very thin veil between comedy and tragedy. Last week, just as the comedian, Jeffer son de Angehs, was going on the stage at La Cross, Wis., to amuse the audience in the “Royal Rogue”, he received a telegram telling him of his son’s death in New York, lie acted, however, and none knew the father’s anguish behind the mask of levity that he wore. At the end of the performance he took the train for New York. A statistical catalogue of the kinds of Democrats in the country discloses just twenty-eight varieties. A few of them run as follows: Bryan * democrats, Hill democrats, Croker democrats, Cleveland, Gorman, Sam. Tilden, Andrew JacksoD, Thomas Jefferson, “Torn’’ Johnson, Webster Davis, “Pitchfork” Tillman demo crats and other demopops two numer ous to mention. These factions seem to be working one against the other and there is but little hope of sumA politically speaking, of eilln^men viewed by a conservative member of the old democratic party. Prince Henry of Prussia, the rep resentative of his brother, the em peror of Germany, reached New York last Sunday, February 23, and was cordially welcomed as a guest of the nation. The prince was right royally recieved and expressed much pleasure of the manner in which our people greeted him. After honors had been paid him by the New Workers he went to Washington where he was received by president Roosevelt with a warm welcome. He will make a tour through the country but it is hardly expected that he will get to Loup City. The State Journal of the 20, con tains the following dispatch from • Grand Island: Grand Island, Feb. 25 —The Fi delity and Deposit company of Bal timore to-day paid into the county treasury of Hall county the sum of $12,305 Rue on the bond of ex County Treasuier and Present rep resentative William Tbomssen, who had deposited $15,000,00 of the county's money in the Bank of com merce a few days before it failed in 1800. The payment winds up all the litigation there has been in thii shortage. This is the case which we referred to last week as being decided b\ the supreme court against the treas urer of Hall countv, and a ca*u which was practically the same n« ho one in which the $5,000 deposii was made and lost by this county.

Havana, once the hotbed of y ellow fever and small pox, is now better off than New York and a host of other American cities, to say nothing of London and Europ ean countiies. This state of affairs is a notable triumph for the American regime; and those gentlemen who are so prone to discount our colonial or “imperialistic” policy cannot ca vil at the improvement. The public schools over which the American Hag is floating in the Phil ipines may not be up to the stan dard of the little ltd school house we all know well, but they art doing an excellent work, in spite of dilflcul ties In the islands and discourage ments at home.

We are accustomed to thinking of France as a country every Inch of which 1h settled and cultivated and to regard the wolves which once swarmed in that fair country as hav ing vanished long ago. But it seems that wolves still are numerous and destructive to life and property. So1 rapidly did the wolves increase after the war with Germany that in 1882 a1 law was passed offering a reward foi every oris of these animals killed Sinse the institution of these pre miums nearly 9,000 wolves have been killed and over $130,000 has been paid out in premiums. Last year there were 115 wolves killed. For killing a she wolf with young $30 is paid; for a full-grown wolf of either sex $20, and for whelps $8 apiece. In medieval times wolves were the great pest of France. They killed people at the very gates of Paris and were even known to prowl about the city streets it night. TIME TABLE. LOUP CITY, NEBR.

Gtnllewun : — Being entirely cured of deafness, thanks to your treatment, I will now give you a full history of my case, to be used at your discretion. About five years ago my rigbt ear began to sing, and this kept on getting worse, until I lost my hearing in this ear entirely. I underwent a treatment for catarrh, for three months, without any success, consulted a num ber of physicians, among others, the most eminent ear specialist of this city, who told me that only an operation could help me, and even that only temporarily, that the head noises would then cease, but the hearing in the affected ear would lie lost forever. I then saw your advertisement accidentally in a New York paper, and ordered your treat ment. After I had used it only a few days according to your directions, the noises ceased, and to-day, after five weeks, my hearing in the diseased ear has been entirely restored. I thank you heartily and beg to remain Very truly yours. F. A. WERMAN, 730 S. Broadway, Baltimore, Md. Our treatment does not interfere with your usual occupation.
