Sears, ex-speaker of the house, and who took some two hundred dollars of the state’s money for presiding over that body, which the attorney general has decided as un constitutional, is in no hurry to “put it back,” in fact, guess he won't.

The coming of Mr. Sanford Dodge and his talented company of dramatic artists in Macbeth, Tuesday. April 11th. will be greeted with delight by all lovers of the drama. The name of Sanford Dodge is a synonym of dra matic excellence, as it lias ever been connected with the highest class oi dra ruatic work and this season his pro ductions are superior to anv he has ever before attempted. No other at traction touring the Northwest can afford to carry the high class artists en gaged by Mr. Dodge, as no other actor lias the confidence of the play going public in this territory to such an extent that they will give sufficient financia j support to pay the immense salaries commanded hv the artists who support Mr. Dodge this season. Balsora Items We were sorry to learn that Miss Lva Cullen was th** victim of an accident on tli** w*y liom« from the graduating exercises last Wednesday evening. In going over a sidling road the buggy wheel brok** and Miss Cullen was hurt ; but not seriously. The class reception at Mr. Landon’s was a very pleasant affair. Everyone 1 s**emed bent on having and giving a good time. Such remarks as “That! i baccalaureate sermon ivas the liest 1 j I ever heard,” and “Wasn't Mr. Starr's | address line?” or “Mr. Hendrickson *ave us an excellent talk, didn’t he?’’ 1 seemed to lie the order of the evening. ' Win. Nordstrom’s team got into a : barbed wire feuce Thursday evening on i the wav to the reception at Mr. Lan don’s and his buggy was badly broken The Balson class and teacher went j to Mr Draper’* photo car at Arcadia ; and had their pictures taken, Thurs day. We heard some complimentary remarks on the appearance of the elsas. Miss Gilbert visited Mrs. Fagen, Mrs DeWitt and Mrs. Landon and families last week. Death of Mrs. Wm. Jeffrey. On the 28th day ot March occured the death of Mrs. Wm. Jeffrey, at her home in Ashton, Sherman county, Ne braska, aged 08 years, 2 months and 20 davs. The funeral occured from the Presbyterian church at t arwell, where she wa« buried by the side of her mother in the cemetery at that place. Mrs. Jeffrey, whose maiden name was Mary Gordon, was born iir Faruiana county, Ireland, Jan. Sth, 1847. She immigrited to this country and to Ne braska m October,1879. She was married to Wm. Jeffrey in February, 1880. She leaves a sorrowing husband, but has no children, to survive her She has one sister. Mrs. John Irvin, living near Farwell; a si-ter in Ireland, whose name we did not learn, and a brother living in Sacramento,Calif., Mr. John Gordon. We have not been informed of the circnmstances of her fatal illness and subsequent death. The lady was most highly esteemed by those who knew her for her sterling qualities, and the bereaved husband and rela tives have the deepest symyathy of all in this th. ir hour of sorrow. Mr. Jeff rey desires us to express Ins heartfelt thanks to the kind friends who adminis tered consolation and performed those acts of fri*imshii* and aid during the illness and subsequent death of his be loved companion. A later account received gives the further information that Mrs. Jeff rev's death was caused by a complication of dise s*s. culminating in dropsy. She was married t<> Mr Jeffrey at Grand Island, Feb.l^so, and lias since lived on a farm two miles east of Ashton She was a consistent member of the Presbyterian church, and greatly es teemed by her vvideclrcle of friends. Costs To Open Wrong Letters. The authi rities at Washington have fixed the penalty of £200 tine on any person taking out of the postofflce mail other than their own. All postmasters are liable to m ike mistakes and get the j mail in the wrong boxes, and the law 1 says that people must examine their: mail before leaving the office, and should they rereive a piece not address ed to them.it must be returned at once. That it is the fault of the postmaster makes no difference. This law includes newspapers as well as first class mail. There is a class of curious people every- j where, and they are, as a rule, contem- i tibly curious about letters and other* mail matter which they chance to get hold of. They will open all letters coming into their possession. and often 1 when knowing full well they don't belong to them They will, after read ing the letters, write on the envelope, “opened by mistake.’’ without signing their name, drop it back in the post office box at night or during the day when not observed. This class of curious individuals is warned to Le careful in the future. If they open mail hereafter which does not belong to them, they must sign their name and state nuy they opened the same whether bv accident or design.—Gales burg, 111 , Register. F- E.

Death to cattle from eating corn stalks tiny be prevented by giving one pint of s>lt containing three table spoonfuls of turpentine dissolved in three pints of warm water and given m a drenching hott'e. Even alter the animal is down, and unable to walk, it can be relieved in thirty minutes and in the end permanently cured. After giv ii g the drench, rub half a pint of tur-! pentme on the animal just behind the shoulders on both sides, and then along the neck veins from the jaw to the nrisket. Ihis will promptly relax the nervous system. The salt will pene tra»e the dry husks in the stomach, while the turpentine entering the blood will counteract the nerve trouble pro duced hv husks.—Exchange. LOW RATES Yia UNION PACIFIC.
