Loop City Northwestern 4. W. BURLEIGH, Publisher. LOUP CITY, • • NEBRASKA. The proposed duty of 3 cents a jound on coftee would stimulate the Mean market. • The dancing masters have prepared a bill of 150 new dances. The public will have to foot it. Wild Nature has been offered the last indignity, now that Alpine peaks are being scaled by autos. A Winnebago student at Carlisle has married an heiress. He is no longer, Lo, the poor Indian. The leader of the band that played “McGInty” in St. Petersburg last Sun day has been sent to Siberia in irons. Russell Sage has a cousin who is “too proud to beg,” and no doubt Un cle Russell considers him a model poor relation. Korea is no longer to be considered a region for international exploit, but it is doubtful if Korea herself ever knows it. It’s a good thing for kings and rul ers in Europe that the bomb-throwing fraternity know nothing of the game of baseball. Cleveland is to have a $1,000,000 art gallery and would like to hear of a few old masterpieces that have been found in junk-shops. If the British submarines axe as dangerous to the navies of other na tions as they are to their own crews . they’re terrors. Henry James’ intelligent discussion of the habits of Americans suggests that it might be well for him to get acquainted with a few. The sweet girl graduate may have an exaggerated idea of the knowledge she possesses, but this would be a sad old world without her. There are more hump-backed peo ple in Spain than anywhere else in the world. Sometimes we almost feel ashamed of having whipped Spain. Doubtless King Edward gave King Alfonso much excellent counsel about the advisability of being serious and sober and sedate when one is young. In New York the other day a bank clerk who had stolen $35,000 was sent to a reformatory. It was a lucky thing for him that he took more than 75 cents. Henry James says the newspapers use “sloppy English.” This is letting us down easy. We feared Henry might accuse some of us of “slinging bum grammar.” A Chicago professor announces the discovery that men were fish in pre historic ages. Shouldn’t wonder; there are many suckers among men in this age. Chancellor von Buelow, who inher ited $1,375,000 and was made a prince on the same day, must have a feeling now that he is, after all, a favorite child of fortune. ' Mount Bjelcasstza in Montenegro Is reported to be showing signs of vol canic activity. If it ever throws up that name there will be some jagged rents in Montenegro. A Chicago woman thinks that chil dren should be paid 5 cents a line for all the poetry they write. "Wouldn’t it be better to pay them 5 cents aline for all they don’t write? Savannah has Invented a pretty good word, which the Morning News hastens to use in explaining the de feat of its local baseball team. It was “outlucked” by the visitors. It’s a shame that the boat having r.n board the only woman that ventured to sail in the transatlantic race should have had such a hard time. Old Nep tune certainly was not gallant. A great ocean liner slowing down In midvoyage in order that an opera tion might be performed in the ship’s hospital on one of the stewards is a pleasing instance of novelty and hu manity. Evidently the sultan of Morocco knows a good thing when he sees it. He is making use of this interval when the powers are vieing for his good will to negotiate a trifling loan of $25,000,000. American girls will be likely to de cide that Crown Princess Cegilie is very old-fashioned in spite of the sto ries that have been cabled over. She didn’t insist on having the “obey” clause left out. Choate has stung New York. He says It reminds him of London be cause of its subway, and New York, which was just beginning to feel like the only submarine in the fleet, is put ting paper in the sweat-leather of its hat. Alfonso, recently appointed a gen eral in the English army, is the first Spanish king that ever set foot in England. If he will come over here we will try to get him an honorary ap pointment as colonel on the staff of some governor. A Chicago court granted a divorce in favor of a woman who charged that her husband, a street car conductor, was flirting with young women passen gers. It may be gratifying to many to know that the gist of the decision lay in the fact that the defendant was a street car conductor. Several United States’torpedo boats were theoretically sunk in the war maneuvers. The country is full of people who firmly believe that is the only way in which the United States war boats ever will or can be sunk. WHY THEYARE HAPPY TWO NOTABLE RECOVERIES PROM EXTREME DEBILITY. Husband's Strength Had Been Waning for Three Tears, Wife a Sufferer from Female Weakness. “ My strength had dwindled so that 1 couldn’t apply myself to my business with any snap but was tired aud listless all the time,” said Mr. Goldstein. *• I went to bed completely used up by my day’s work, aud when I got up in the morning I didn’t feel rested a bit. I had awful headaches too, aud my kid neys got out of order and caused me to have severe pains in the back. At one time I became so feeble that I could not stir from bed for three weeks.” Mr. Goldstein is a young man and had then but recently established a home of his own. His anxieties were increased by the fact that his wife was far from being robust. Mrs. Goldstein says: “ For two years I had been ill most of the time. Sometimes I was confined to bed for weeks in succession under a phy sician's care. I had headaches, kidney trouble, pain about the heart aud many more uncomfortable symptoms con nected with that weakness to which my sex is peculiarly subject.” Trouble had invaded this household and settled in it in just the years that ought to be the very happiest. Physicians could not tell them how to get rid of it. “ I was utterly discouraged,’’said Mr. Goldstein. “Then the urgency of some friends led me to try a blood aud nerve remedy which was said to be wonder fully successful. Within a month there were unmistakable signs of improvement in my condition, aud within a year 1 was completely well. Throngh the use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills I have now as good health as I ever had in my life.” Mrs. Goldstein adds: “ The wonderful effect that Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills had in the case of my husband led me to try them aud they helped me even more quickly than they did him. One box made me decidedly better and a few months’treatment cured me.” Dr. Williams’ Piuk Pills are the best tonic aud regulator, they make pure, rich blood aud when there is general weakness and disorder that is what the system needs. Mr. aud Mrs. H. Goldstein live at 38 Gove street, East Boston, Mass. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills are sold by druggists everywhere. The First One to Give In. Most newly married people experi ence the first quarrel. A story is told of a young wife who, in the midst ol th discussion, was asked by her hus band which she considered ought tc give in first—the man, who was des lined to be master of the woman, ox the woman, who was created for thtj man? The fair combatant settled the matter with a kiss as she replied: “Neither the stronger nor the weaker, but the one who loves the most.” Cards Left on Tombstones. It is becoming fashionable in Paris to leave cards at the cemetery. An oak box placed on a tombstone is in tended for the cards of those who visit the resting place of a departed friend In this way the near relatives find out those friends who still cherish the memory of the dead. UNSIGHTLY BALD SPOT. Caused by Sores on Neck—Merciless Itching for Two Years Made Him Wild—Another Cure by Cuticura. "For two years my neck was cov ered with sores, the humor spreading to my hair, which fell out, leaving an unsightly bald spot, and the soreness, Inflammation and merciless itching made me wild. Friends advised Cuti cura Soap and Ointment, and after a few applications the torment subsided, to my great joy. The sores soon dis appeared, and my hair grew again, as thick and healthy as ever. I shall tlways recommend Cuticura. (Signed) H. J. Spalding, 104 W. 104th SL, New fork City.” Success ill used is the ruin of any man.—Dr. Joseph Parker. Here is Relief for Women.

What three women know the whole neighborhood knows. When Your Grocer Says he does not have Defiance Starch, you may be sure he is afraid to keep it until his stock of 12 oz. packages are sold. Defiance Starch is not only bet ter than any other Cold Water Starch, but contains 16 oz. to the package am) sells for same^ioney as 12 oz. brands Two Kinds of Dry Brick. The common brick, if very dry, will ibsorb a quart of water. The perfect orick of the human variety, howevo**, although he is always dry, doesn’t ab sorb a quart of water in a year’s irinking. Herein is seen the superior ly of mind over matter. His Modest Request. A man in a theater avenged him self upon a woman whose hat effectu ally prevented him from seeing the stage, by saying to her, “If you won’t take off your hat, will you be so kind, my dear madame, as to fold back your ears?” To the housewife who has not yet become acquainted with the new things of everyday use in the market and who is reasonably satisfied with the old, we would Suggest that a trial of Defiance Cold Water Starch be made at once. Not alone because it is guar anteed by the manufacturers to be su perior to any other brand, but because each 10c package contains 16 ozs., while all the other kinds contain but 12 ozs. It is safe to say that the lady who once uses Defiance Starch will use no other. Quality and quantity must win. _ We suffer most from Ills that never happen.—Gascoigne Proverb, poim ■Q & 1$ £ Wj&A (30 4 t±> The date of the Fitzsimmons Schreck fight has been changed from July 4 to July 3. The championship committee of the .Amateur Athletic Union of the United States has decided to hold the annual track and field championship in Port land, Ore. Hugh McLean of Chelsea won a twenty mile motor paced race and the title of champion of the world at the Revere cycle track last week, defeat ing Bobby Walt hour. The Kansas City Athletic club won the second annual meet -of the West ern Athletic union with 501-6 points from University of Nebraska and Mis souri Athletic club of St. Louis. Tom O’Rourke, manager of pugilists, is about to retire from the white lights of Broadway into the prosaic respec tability of a humble manufacturer. He is*to make pneumatic tubes. The Grand Prix of $40,000 was won easily at Longchamps by Michael Epphussi’s Finasseur, with Nash Tur ner, the American jockey, up. The bettin was 7 to 2 against Finasseur. Nine horses ran. In the general shooting tournament of the Indian Territory and Oklahoma Sportsmen’s Association at Ardmore, I. T., the world's amateur squad rec ord was broken. Shooting from eight een yards the squad broke 124 targets out of 125. In the presence of a great crowd at Morris Park racetrack June 10 Louis Chevrolet made a new’ world’s auto mobile record for one mile, covering the distance in 521-5 seconds. The previous record, made by the same car, w’as 52 4-5 seconds. Billy Nolan, manager of Battling Nelson, has accepted the challenge of A1 Herford. He says he is ready to match Nelson against Joe Gans in a fifteen or twenty round bout at 133 pounds ringside for the largest purse offered and a side bet of $2,500. The Brooklyn Derby, June 10, was won by Sidney Paget’s Cairngorm at Gravesend after a fine race through the stretch with Migraine. The win ner was an odds favorite at 1 to 2, as he was considered the best of the four horses entered over the mile and a half route. In one of the most brilliant games he has ever played this season, W. A. Larned, the tennis ex-champion and a member of the American international challenging team, defeated M. D. Whitman, formerly of Boston, on the courts of the Crescent Athletic club at Bay Ridge. The score was 6—3, 8—6. After ten rounds of hard fighting between Aurelio Herera of Colifornia and Charles Neary of Milwaukee at Grand Rapids, Mich., June 8, Referee Lynch declared the contest a draw. Neary' did most of the leading, but Herrera put in some damaging blows. The decision was greeted with ap plause. The Texas racing circuit was organ ized at a meeting at Dallas. Repre sentatives from several Texas towns interested were in attendance and others have assurance in writing of their hearty co-operation. Charles A. Mangold of Dallas was elected presi dent of the circuit and Robert Barker of Austin secretary. Harry Michaels, a few years ago the most noted jockey in the east, who later lost his prestige and was suspended in the west, was denied a license at a meeting of the stewards of the Jockey club. It is evident from this that the Jockey club intends to uphold the action of th« turf powers on the Pacific coast. Elmer Davis of Cresco, Iowa, was elected captain of the track team of Iowa university for 1906. Davis showed exceptional ability two years ago, when he joined the squad, and this year, under the coaching of De laney, has made rapid improvement. Great things are expected next year of the game little quarter-miler. Billy Delaney, one of the most fam ous of pugilistic trainers of his time, is going to retire. Delaney has an nounced that he will never again de vote his time to the training of fight ers. He is the only man who brought out two world’s champions—James J. Corbett and James J. Jeffries. He trained both for their championship fights. The Kentucky Farmer and Breeder announces that no fall meeting will be held at the Lexington race track. Capt S. S. Brown of Pittsburg, the owner, arrived at the decision after a consultation with local representat ives. The chief reason for abandon ing the idea is that among extensive improvements the track will be recon structed. It is authoritatively stated that the American league clubs will not be lim ited to a certain number of players JTRED BAIBA. (Elected captain of the University of Chicago baseball team for 1905.) this season. That rule has tj,een side tracked by common consent and each club will carry more men than for merly. This will allow more utility men to be retained by each manager and will admit of larger pitching and catching staffs. Ward and Wright, the national champions in lawn tennis doubles, and the pair of challenging American team won the final contest on the turf of the Crescent Athletic club at Bay Ridge by defeating Alexander and Hackett, the Princeton-Yale combina tion, after five fast and sensational sets, the score being 5—6, 6—4, 6—3, 2—4. and 6—2. “Kid” Sullivan of Washington, through his manager, A1 Herford of Baltimore, has been offered a twenty round fight with Jimmy Britt. The Hayes Valley Athletic club of San Francisco made the offer, specifying that the fight take place in San Fran cisco about July 15. Britt’s manager also wired the club his terms, and if these are acceptable the match will be closed at once. Sanction has been obtained from the American Automobile association for the greatest automooile race meet ever held in that part of the country to take place at Brunots Island race track June 28 and 29. The meet will be held under the auspices of the Auto mobile club of Pittsburg. W. W. Darley, chairman of the race commit tee, is now in the East completing ar rangements with the best drivers. Abe Attell and Jem Bowker are as good as hooked up for an internation al featherweight championship fight at the true featherweight limit. The American and the Briton have come to terms on weight, 120 pounds at 2 o’clock on the afternoon of the night of battle. They will probably fight be fore the National Sporting club of London, and have agreed to post $1,000 each as a forfeit and let this forfeit go as a side bet. In a New York private gymnasium before a select crowd of sportsmen, Fred Beell of Wisconsin and Tom Jen kins of Cleveland wrestled for $1,000 a side. Beell, of whom little was known, wrestled the old champion to a standstill and then threw him after a strugfle lasting two hours and 43 minutes. Jenkins eventually won the "MOLL IE" - WSXDELL. (Who will lead the Michigan Varsity ball team next season.) match through superior weight, but declared when it was over that Beell was the hardest opponent for his size and weight he ever met.” James Braid, Scotchman, won the forty-fifth annual British open golf championship at St. Andrews links, Scotland, with a total score of 318. This is the second time that Braid has earned the distinction of champion. Last year at Sandwich, a much less difficult course than St. Andrews. Jack White won with a score of 296. J. H. Taylor, the Eng lishman who won the previous open tourney held at historic St. Andrews in 1900, totaled 300. But the course has been lengthened to 6,333 yards and has been provided with new bunkers Advices from Australia show that Bernard B. Kieran, a 17-year-old boy of Sydney, is the greatest swimmer the world has yet produced. Kieran is an orphan, who was placed on the training ship Sobraon in Sydney har bor. As he grew older he developed remarkable ability as a swimmer, and by the time he was 15 he had beaten every one in his line. From 440 yards to five miles he has beaten all world’s records, and he soon will reach Eng land to compete in the championship events. He has gone 200 yards in 2:13 3-5, 440 yards in 5:25 3-5, and one mile in 23:16 4-5. Louis Rogers Browring, a star In the baseball firmament from 1882 to 1895, and known fo every fan in the union as “Line ’Em Out Pete,” is in sane. His commitment to Central Asylum for the Insane at Lakeland. Ky., was ordered at the instance of his sister. Softening of the brain is his malady. Browning unquestionably was one of the greatest batsmen the national game has known. Starting in 1882 with the famous Eclipse team of Louisville, he played here until 1888, then went to Pittsburg, in 1890 to the Brotherhood team of Cleveland, in 1891-92 to Cincinnati, rnd ended his professional career in 1893 in Allen town, Pa. John Middle Sky, a full blooded Choctaw Indian, weighing 456 pounds, arrived in Minneapolis June 9. J. M. Sky is the latest aspirant for pugil istic honors, and his manager, H. F. Blackwell is taking him East, where he will be trained for the prize ring. J. M. Sky stands seven feet in height, is 29 years.old, and wears a 14% shoe. He was too big to occupy a berth in a sleeper and had to sit up four nights on the way east from Portland. He hails from Yuma, Ariz., and his man ager thinks he will whip the world when he learns a bit more about the boxing game. Beside this Indian, Jeffries, Sullivan and even Ed Dunk horst, are pigmies. He is a natural athlete and despite his great bulk Is perfectly proportioned. Eccentric British Lord. Lord Grlmthorpe’s eccentricities are gossiped about by the London M. A P., which says: “He hates new clothes and dislikes collars and ties His favorite hat is a Panama, which he cheerfully places under the pumj and souses, then clappirg it on hi* head.” ADDS TO SPLENDOR MEN OF BUSINESS RECOGNIZE ADVANTAGES OF ACETYLENE. Famous Summer Hotel, the Grand Union of Saratoga, Has Installed This Best of All Artificial Lights— Means Increased Comfort and Health. Saratoga, June 27.—The very name, “Saratoga,” brings to every mind health-giving springs, unsurpassed hotels and beautiful drives. It has been for many years the Mecca for all who admire nature, i enjoy good living, and are searching for health, or are simply taking a va cation. The Grand Union, the largest sum mer hotel in the United States, set among green trees with its long wings enclosing a court with fountains and flowers, grass and trees, music and light, is throughout the season throng ed with guests. With the progressive spirit always shown by its manage ment, the Grand Union has again add ed to its attractiveness by introduc ing acetylene gas to make still more brilliant the evening hours. The ge nial proprietors believe in furnishing their guests with the best of every thing, and now, after investigating and finding that Artificial Sunlight can be had, they have installed a com plete acetylene gas plant to produce it, and have connected upwards of 6ix thousand acetylene burners in and about the house and grounds to this little gas plant. Like many discoveries of recent years, which are coming into popular favor, acetylene, one of the most re cent, is very simply produced. It is adapted for use wherever artificial light is needed and the necessary ap paratus can be understood and oper ated by anyone. The generator in which Acetylene Is produced by the automatic contact ol carbide and water might be termed a gas plant, as it performs all of the func tions of a city gas plant. The acet ylene generator can be purchased for a few dollars and in any size, from one adapted to furnish acetylene to ten or a dozen burners for a cottage, up to the large but still simple ma chine such as is now furnishing Acetylene for six thousand burners in the Grand Union. Outside' of large cities the use of Acetylene is quite common. The owner of the country home now de mands running water, gas and other conveniences which a few years ago were considered as luxuries, and acetylene gas has met his require ments, and gives him a better and cheaper light than is ordinarily fur nished in cities. It is well known that rooms lighted with Acetylene are more comfortable, because cooler, and more healthful be cause the air is not vitiated. Why Butter is Eaten. There are generally scientific rea sons for dietetic habits. Butter is eat en with bread, the Dietetic and Hygi enic Gazette explains, because while bread is rich in starch and contains a fair proportion of proteid, it has not the fat which the body craves. Mill: is taken with rice pudding to make up the deficiency of proteid which rice lacks. Giving Away a Secret. A Birmingham church warden, says the London News, was reading at a vestry meeting a list of subscriptions to the parochial funds. The list be gan as follows: “The vicar, a guinea; Airs. -, half a guinea; an anony mous donor, myself, twenty-five shil lings.” Quicksilver Mining. In the Alamaden (Spain) quicksilver mines the miner cannot work more than four and one-half hours a day and cannot work more than seven or sight days a month without seriously Injuring his health. Alligator for Dinner. After promising to get some fish for dinner, Max Hartmann, having gone mad, went to the Hamburg Zoo, re moved a young alligator from a pond and took it "home for his wife to cook. Of Wide Interest. Breed, Wis., June 26.—Special— Chas. Y. Peterson, Justice of the Peace for Oconto Co., has delivered a judg ment that is of interest to the whole United States. Put briefly, that judg ment is, "Dodd’s Kidney Pills are the best Kidney medicine on the market to-day.” And Mr. Peterson gives his reason for this judgment. He says: “Last winter I had an aching pain in my back which troubled me very much. In the morning I could hardly straight en my back. I did not know what it was but an advertisement led me to try Dodd’s Kidney Pills. After taking one box I can only say they have done more for me than expected as I feel as well now as ever I did before.” Pain in the back is one of the first symptoms of Kidney disease. If not cured by Dodd’s Kidney Pills it may develop into Bright’s Disease, Dia betes, Rheumatism or some of the other deadly forms of Kidney Disease. Colorado’s Forest Reserves. The forest reserve system in Colo rado now includes near 7,000,000 acres, nearly double the amount found in any other state in the union. Ask Your Dealer for Allen's Foot-Ease. A powder.

Vegetable life does not er'st in the sea helow a depth of 1,500-feet « THE AMERICAN TYPE AS DISTINCTIVE AS THAT OF OTHER RACES. Prominent Features of a Century or More Ago Are Still in Evidence— Children of Uncle Sam Easily Rec ognized. There is as distinctive a type of American manhood as there is of any other country. True, the American people are a mixture. We combine several different races and bloods. But the intermixtures has gone on so gradually, the original American type always prevalent, that the American man is a distinct representative of civilization, differing from the English man, the Frenchman and the German, as much as these differ from each other. Examination of the portraits of rev olutionary times and those of the pres ent date show little if any difference between the men of the earlier times and those of the present day, save in the matter of attire. Dress the peo ple of the present day as were the people of the revolutionary epoch appareled and nothing could be found to establish a notable difference be tween the American of to-day and the American of the last quarter of the eighteenth century. Food, climatic conditions and occupations have all much to do with the physical peculiar ities of a people. The races that have for centuries received no admixture of foreign blood retain peculiarities that seem unchangeable. What people eat and drink, their dwelling places, the soil and climate they inhabit, their worship, amuse ments and work all determine looks. The American Indian when first met on this continent by adventurous Europeans lived almost exclusively on a meat and fish diet, the product of chase and other adventure. He was tall, thin, muscular and daring. His eye was bright, his hearing acute. He looked tne fearless being that he really was. He had to fight wild beast and savage man. He feared neither. The early white settlers, obliged by the peculiar conditions of pioneer times tb live in a measure like the Indians, became also tall, thin, muscular, daring. Their eyes flashed with the fearlessness that characterizes the American race of the present. "We have a more generous and va ried diet than our ancestors. Diet affects personal appearances in marked degree. WTe are becoming a larger and heavier race, but the dis tinctive features of a century or more ago are still in evidence. The Ameri can is easily recognizable everywhere he goes in foreign lands. He will for a long time present the same type that to-day distinguishes him from men of all other races.—Louisville Herald. a baw contains 200 Gems. The Atkins saw works of this city, says the Indianapolis Sentinel, has just completed a large saw contain ing 200 teeth, with, a Brazilian dia mond imbedded in each tooth. The saw was shipped recently to Bedford, Ind., to be used in one of the bif stone quarries there. The saw is eight feet in diameter, five-sixteenths of an inch thick and weighs almost half a ton. Instead of having sharp teeth, this peculiar saw has almost a smooth edge. Secured across the edge of the outer rim are 200 inserted steel holders; imbedded in each is a large Brazilian diamond. The diamond points compose the teeth of the saw, which will be used to cut Indiana limestone into desired sizes. The diamonds are about a karat in size and are very dark. Each stone is valued at $20. Two other saws, du plicates of the one completed, are in the course of construction and repre sent a cost of $10,000. When Depew Hurried. Senator Chauncey M. Depew of New York tells this one at his own ex pense. He was stumping the state of New York in the campaign of 1900, having big audiences and kiqdly re ceptions at all joints. In one town the republican managers har arranged to have a cannon near the stand of the speaker and to have it fired off every time the people gave vent to applause. Senator Depew kept the 'people hurrahing most all of the time. At last stopping to take breath, he distinctly heard this query come across the field: “Cap, when is the old galoot going to quit? I’ve only got four cartridges left.” Depew said he finished his speech in four minutes.—Pittsburg Dispatch. Indian Territory Valley. The valley lyi»g between the Verdi gris and Grand rivers in Indian Terri tory, embracing a tract of land from five to twenty miles long, is one of the oldest inhabited portions of In dian Territory, the Creeks having set tled there seventy-five years ago.
