Mr. Editor: It lias been currently
talked around that Hoisel's boiler in
the mill exploded. That is a mistake.
The boiler nearly give way in a partic
ular place. I have had the boiler in
my shop and put a patch on it and test
ed it to 100 lbs to the square inch with
hydraulic pressure, which I consider
sufficient, as they only require 35 to 40
to do their work. The iron in the shell
is sia good iron as I ever worked in my
shop. Yours truly,

of Elsworth, hired by a Mr. West, was
left to take charge of the farm while
Mr. West came to town, on Tuesday
afternoon. Mr. West stayed in town
that night, and this man attempted to
outrage his wife and then forced her
to tell him where the money was kept.
While the villain was hunting the

During a trip to Omaha lately, the
Editor was invited by Mr. Secretary
Tyschuck, to visit the Institute for
the Deaf and Dumb of the state, situa
ted near that place. Frof.Kenney is very
nicely situated and hard at work both
in improving the minds of his pupils
and the grounds about the building.
Teaching deaf mutes is a very inter
esting stud'. Our only objection to
tue senrasKa institution is that it is
just tar enough irom the city to be a
nuisance in getting to, and must be
more expensive to manage than if
nearer. Like the Penitentiary we
learn the gift of a paltry forty acres of
land controlled the selection of the
site.

We learn from those who know, that
Nebraska's representative in congress,
Frank Welch, is one of the most inde
fatigable members of that body al
ways at work and at his post. n e
have not seen an instance but that he
is at his post at roll call. We venture
to say that Welch will never "dodge a
vote." If we shall only succeed in get
ting Col. Majois in, where he belongs,
and of right should be, Nebraska
would have "a whole team and ahorse
to let.'Two young, able and indomita
ble men would then represent us.
And now, comes Iowa The people
there demf ill a law that shall asse. s
property more equally. The Nonpa
reil, Council Bluffs, says this about it:
We have not a bill before us, but under
stand that the main feature of the bill
is a provision requiring all property to
be assessed at its actual cash value.
The bill provides for the appointment
of not more than three assessors for
each county, to be appointed bv the
county Board of supervisors. It is
evident that our system of assessment
should be changed. The old nlan
amounts to confiscation of a large
amount of property In the west and
northwestern jiortions of the state.
Unimproved lards in the sections nam
ed are valued. In many instances, at
from six to ten dollars per acre, twice
as much as the land would sell for in
the open market.
Temperance
The most useful temperance people,
the best advocates of temperance, aie
those w ho labor to prevent the forma
tion of intemperate habits. The men
and women- who educate their children
to the belief that drinking intoxicat
ing liquors is disgraceful aro very good
temperance people, the best there is.

by being driven from her home at
night, and froze to death on tho prai
rie, and ho himself tied out in the sta
ble and had one foot badly frozen. His
manner of relating this experience was
very affecting. Columbus Journal.
We learn from the Omaha Republi
can the following facts about the Sta
tus of pro-rata measures in Congress:
The proposed congressional legisla
tion, host ile to the Union Pacific, is in
the Chaffee bill in the senate, and the
Crittenden bill in the house. The
Chaffee bill has been referred to the
sennate committee on judiciary. The
Crittended bill has been referred to the
house committee on the Pacific rail
roads, and several hearings have been
had and are still in progress.
A. II. Holmes; of New York opened
the argument in behalf of the Kansas
Pacific. President Bain, of the St.
Louis Board of Trade, and ex-Gov.
Stannard, of Missouri, followed
in behalf of the city of St.
Louis. Mr. Crittenden addressed
the committee in behalf of his bill.
Mr. Parish, a New York attorney, was
heard on be-half of the first mortgage
bondholders of the Denver Pacific. On
Tuesday and Saturday of last week,
thp sessions of tbe committee (2 hours
each day) were given up to Mr. Popple
ton on Udialf of the Union Pacific.
Horace White wa3 to address the com
mittee yesterday in favor of the bill,
on behalf of the first mortgage bond

There yet remain to be heard: Mr.
Withrow, against the bill, on behalf of
the Iowa pool lines; Mr. Shellabarger,

dict at 8 o'clock this morning, finding
the prisoner guilty of murder, and fix

crook's correction.
Omaha, Feb. 23. Gen. Crook return
ed to-day from the Indian Teritory.
Concerning the published statement in
a Cheyenne paper that a large expedi
tion would be organized in the spring
against Sitting Bull, Crook makes an
emphatic denial. He says no immedi
ate trouble need be feared from bitting
Bull unless the buffalo range 6outh,
which is hardly probable as they have
not done so late years. JNo expedition
against the hostile Sioux is now con
templated.
WADE HAMPTON AGAIN.
Chareston, S. C, Feb. 23. Two reg
iments of the National Guard, colored
volunteer organizations were reviewed
to-day by Gov. Hampton, and made a
fine display. Several colored bands
were in the column. At the close of
the review Gov. Hampton addressed
the troops congratulating them on the
improvement of the past year, and re
minding them of his pledge that the
colored race should enjoy full and
enual risrhts under the law with the
whites, and calling upon them as citi

PEACE CONDITIONS.
Constantinople. Feb. 23. The
draft of the peace conditions contain
ed a stipulation that the six principal
Turkish iron clads should be ceded to
llussia on the ground that otherwise
the porte might sell them to England.
The sultan objected to this stipulation.
He stated that he would prefer to de
stroy the vessels, and promised not to
transfer them to any powers, in consid
eration of which Russia withdrew her
demand for their immediate cession.
It is understood the treaty of peace is
on the point of being signed. Proba

sultan here.

GalvksTox, February C4. A News
special da'.ed Da 1 if, February 2'-k,
sns: Last night t tie sou:h bound
train on the Central was boarded at
Allen's station, by six men, who rob
bed the express car of 2,300. The
train had hardly drawn up at the" sta
tion, when a man jumped into the
engineer's cab, covering him and the
ti reman with a revolver. Five other
men attempted to enter the express
car when the messenger, Thomas
showed tight, firing three shots at the
robbers, hitting one and it is thought,
killing him. The robbers tired live
or six shots at the messenger, then
rushing in and overpowering him, cut
the bell cord and had the train in a
swing and uncoupling the express car
from the train, they ordered the engi
neer to pull v r o.i asidedng. wliere the
messenger was forced to open the safe
from which they abstracted 2,500 in
monev, overlooking a package contain
ing about 6400.
The Robbers were all masked save
one who covered the engineer. The
passengers were completely demoraliz
ed, and thinking that they would be
visited a general scramble in secretion
of money and valuables took place.
They were not molested, however. One
of the party proposed going through
the passengers but the leader com
manded him to keep his place and
come on. After securing their booty
the robbers mounted their horses
a short distance from the depot, anel
took a northwestward course. There
were enough male passengers aboard to
have captured the robbers, but they
were so badly demoralized that, with

TrXT OF MR. SOUTHARIS BILL
The bill introduced by Mr. Southard
proposing an amendment to the con

lfi, provides that the executive pawer

known one as western states, one as
the eastern and middle states, and the
other as southern states, and no two

vice president. The bill further pro
vides that each of the presidents shall

$30,000 per year.
Bob Ingersoll made $20,000 on his
last lecture tour. Now what shall it
