B Ely of University Place inflicts the readers of the State Journal with a long winded ecreed on some abstract proposition, or mayhaps upon some subject that is running the gauntlet of public criticism. Whatever the subject matter, this inveterate boor is always on hand with his "piece.” When the Journal has received us much of chas tisment along the line of his proffered writings as lias the writer of th s. they will appreciate what we say in regard to the venerable ass. It is said the good die young, The doctor is getting well along in ye irs. The following formula is given for fumigating school building with for maldehyde: * Use live ounces of formal dehyde for every 1.000 cubic feet of space. Use the formaldehyde on a large piece of cloth like sheets strung across the joom. one sheet for everv five oun ces or 1.000 feet; shut doors and w in dows and leave for 24 hours. This can be followed on a y Saturdav. It is a good plan to fumigate all school build mgs occ tsionallv. Another pi n o* fumigating is to place one part of for maldehyde to ten of water and pi ce on the stove. This can be used while school is in session. If it becomes too strong, weaken with water. Governoi Mickey announced Monday that Attorney General Brown, with his sanction, would some time this week institute suit in the supreme court to test the constitutionality of the hiennnialelection law passed by the recent legislature. He stated that a candidate lor regent would otter a cer tificate of nomination for filing ir the office of Secretary of State Galusha, 'hen suit will be brought fora man damus compelling that official to re ceive the certificate. This will bring the case belore the supreme court with out delay and make it possible to se cure a decision before the close of th January term, thereby getting around the diplomacy of the framers of the bill which led them to omit the emergency clause in the hope of delaying action until it would be too late to m ke pro visions tor the election this fall, and thereby force the supreme court, a* a measure of expediency, to give its ap proval to the law. And now it is given out that Tommy Tibbies, De France, Edmundson and other of the high priests of the populist faith will soon inflict upon the people of Nebra-ka a straight-out populist organ. It was only a week or so ago that Tibbies' organ, the Indept ndent, was sold to the late fusion candidate for governor, Berge, who changed it into a strright democratic sheet, and we wpre informed Tommy was going to be the head of a banking firm in New York City. But now the scene shifts and we are informed that the redoubt able Thom »s will let up on being a bank president and give Nebraska populists a red-hot and still sizzling pop sheet whose lurid glow- will dazzle the eyes of its satelites and make the Berge eff usion look like the gleam of a tallow candle t»y the side of a lime light that will diffuse the columns of the new wild eyed proposition. Eet there b- no del .y. The people will l e in pent irp agony and suspense till the real thing com "9. In several Nebraska cities anil towns the lirst effective fight eyer inaugurated against the mail order houses of Chi cago is now in progress. Instead of scolding the big firms and demanding the abolition of the rural mail delivery and asking for restrictive legislation, a few local mer chants are bating lib eral spaces in their home papers for the purpose of showing the tanners and town people th t goods can be purchased at home more cheaply and j satisfactorily than in Chicago. The campaign is conducted along definite and convincing lines. The Chicago prices are quoted, with freight or ex press charges added. Then the mer chant tells what he can do on the same goods, with the privilege of examina tion before they are taken from the store. If all the country merchants would adopt this enlightened and ef ieetive policy they could reduce the Chicago mail order shipments intoNe-j hraska bv tiftv per cent in less than five ye :rs.—Stare Journal.

Anyone who has ever watched a heavy bird rise from the ground has 1 doubtless noticed that it runs along the ground for a few feet before it i rises; the bird must acquire some mo- | mentum before its wungs can lift its heavy body into the air. The natives in certain parts of the Andes under stand this fact very well and by means of it catc-li the great Andean vultures, the condors. A small space j is shut, in with a high fence and left open at the top. Then a lamb or a | piece of carrion is placed on the ground inside. Presently a vulture ; sees the bait and swoops down upon it, but when once he finds he has alighted on the ground inside he can not get out, for he has no running space in which to acquire the momen tum that is necessary before his wings can lilt him. Statutes Oddly Worded. Years ago the British parliament passed a bill for the rebuilding of a jail at Chelmsford. It was agreed that the prisoners should be confined to the old jail while the new one was building. The new one, however, was to be constructed from the materials of the old one. In the reign of King William IV. a statute wras passed fix ing the punishment of fourteen years’ transportation for a particular offense. It added: “Upon conviction, one-half thereof shall go to the king and one half to the informer.” Just why the king should be transported for half the term the person who drew the act found it impcfcslble to explain, since he had merely made a ludicrous blun der. Robert Watke. formerly a track grain buyer at Farwell. was in town the first of the week. He inform d all he met here that he h»d retired from’ business and intended to devote his entire time to prosecuting the Hurling tort Railroad company for alleged discriminations during the lime he was located at Far wed and Ashton.— St. Paul Republican.
