Kittell of Rockville.1 While here Mr. Kittell showed us an old Confederate hill of the denomina tion of S-'.OO, issued at Richmond. Va.. Feb. 17, 18(>4. It was found or.lv a few ' days previously bv the family between th»* leaves of a volume entitled ‘-Pol-! lard's Lost Cause," a Southern history of the vVar of the Rebellion, a hook highly urized by Mr Kittell being left him bv his father. Rev. G. W. Kittell. j who was captain of Co. C, r>8th Ills Vols., brought home with him at the close of the war, and the bill was un- j doubtedlv placed in the book by the good father, as Mr. Kittell had not seen e;iid Confederate note for over thirty years On the back of the note were printed the following verses, which tell their own tale and speak eloquently of b asted hopes: — IX MEMORIAM. (Respectfully dedicated to the ho’ders of Confederate treasury notes.) Rej.resenting nothing on God’s earth new, And naught in the waters below it, As a pledge of the nation tint’s dead and gone, Keep it, dear friend, and show' it Show it to those who vvill lend an ear To tlie tale that this paper can te I. Of liberty born, of the patriot's dream Of the storm-cnohed nation that fell Too^ioor to possess the precious creq And t *o much of a stranger to borrow We issue today our pro n is-* to p tv. And bopj to releem on ti e norro v. 1 he days r< 11 eel on and w« ks 1 e *;;m y« ars, Hut our coffers were empty stiff, Coin was so rare the treasure quaked If a dollar should drop in the till. Hut the faith that was iu us w«e strong indeed. And our poverty w ell discerned, And these litMe checks represerred the pay That our suffering volunteers earned We knew it had hardly a value in gold. Yet as gold her soldiers received it, It gazed in our eyes with a promise to pay. And each patriot soldier believed it. Hut our boys thought little of price or Or the bills that were overdue, [pay. We knew it brought us bread today, Twas the best our poor country could do. Keep it, for it tells our history o’er, From the birth of it’s dream to the last Modest, and born of the Angel Hope, Like the hope of success, it passed. The law’ will have another try at Tom Denison, the Omaha gambler, accused of complicity in the Pollock diamond robbery. He was found not guilty at a former trial by a jury of Iowa guessers, but public opinion as to Denison’s guilt has undergone no perceptible change in conse quence. The strenuous effort on the part ot the Omaha Bee to create senti ment in ' favor of Tom Denison, should and undoubtedly does earn his eternal gratitude for his bosom friend Rosewater, however much or little influence said strenuousness exerts. The people of Nebraska are, however, quite well acquainted with Rosewatetism. Deputy Attorney General Thomp son has called attention to the fact even if the biennial election law is held to be unconstitutional, registers of deeds and county supervisors will be permitted to bold over until Jari uarv. 1907, while county assessors will have another year added. It i9 pointed out that none ot these are constitutional offices, so that the defeat of the general bill will not affect the law extening these terms. When you go to Lincoln after this, remember you musn’t spit—on the sidewalk, at least. The city has passed an ordinance against expecto rating on the walks, and you will have to make a lunge for the street if you are not prepared to do the boa constrictor act. Would it not be well for the capital city to provide great spitting vats at convenient intervals for the public, with banners warning the stranger to “Spit Here.” Minutes Co., Board Meeting.
