- Senator Paddock arrived honiu
for Christmas, and found his fences in
pretty good repair. One gate was open ;
Weaver fergot to shut it as .he was
hunting for a new pasture field. Laird
broke down the top step of the stile
leading to the clover patch, and Van
Wyck had left a pair of bars down
where thw old ltye was sown. Nance
was putting a new "rider" on a panel
or two uf seven rail, old Virginia pat
tern, luft round the home lot; and Bill
Daily was trying to hang a brand new
Dundy patent gate across the main
road to the kitchen.
A strange fellow, Tad" didn't know
was trying t tear down some stone
wall on the timber reserve, but as he
was not .making much headway, the
Senator told the hired man to keep an
eye on him, and retired to his turkey
in fine humor, satisfied that if Mar
quette didu't run a railway train thro'
his hedge, or Mason drive too manv
shorthorns overbid stubble, a little
judicious tinkering would set all other
damages right, leave his pathway
clear, and improve his estate generally.
Ciias. Foster has withdrawn from
the senatorial contest in Ohio, and
Sherman will now have a walk-over,
is the refrain we hear from all over
the L'nion. Everybody seems to be in
terested in tire affairs of Ohio, and
what a wonderful thing il is to be
born in Ohio is recognized by the
known world now; as, for instance, at
the g'eat Xew England annual dinner
in New York, the other day, one of
their brightest speakers said: 'Soaie
men are born great, and some in Ohio."
Now, if we were to announce that

our senatorial contest on account ot
the great preponderance of j
brains massed against him, etc , er that !
our Governor Nance had stepped aside '
that ex-Strrttury Paddock milit have
a ucad sure thing, it would hardiy cre
ate a ripple, except to those immedi
ately interested in Nebraska politics.
Let's make a new territory out West,
aud call it "Ohio No. 2;" maybe it
woidd grow up to be great, tio.
Among o'her novelties suggested to
cure intemperance, a Iriend propones
ihe finii.g f those who get drunk. He
thinks "repeated and constant tines
would cure a fellow after a while. Al
so that miners and habitual drunkards
should know and feel that they were
doing nt least half the wrong, and
should be made responsible by tlie law
for their own acts; that is to say, that
when a minor, knowing himself to lie
such, stepped up to a bar aud asked
for a drink (and drank it ) he should be
punished as well as the man who sold
hiiu the liquor, contrary to law. The
same with a known drunkard. He
should be laide equally responsible
with Cue seller for his known violation
of the law."
That this is just cannot well bo gain
said. As the law stands it practically
ignores the old precept that the "re
ceiver is as bad as the thief,,' and says
in effect to tht prohibited classes:
i re, if I can coax or blarney a sa-loon-keeper
into giTicg me a drink I'm
all i ight ; he'll get lined if any one com
plains. I'll go free. Hurrah, boys!
Let's have another round!"
The "great Rock Island Railroad"

William Stevens, of Omaha, died
at Middle Grove, Mo., last week and
his body was brought to Omaha, Mon
day, for interment. Mr. Stevens was
of the old firm of Stevens & Wilcox,
and he was one of the most respected
and enerjetic of Omaha's many citi
zens, taking a pr.vuinent part in all
tha plans for her advancement.
Business troubles no doubt hastened
his death. The writer has manv reas
ons to lemcmber Mr. Stevens with
great kindness, and sincerely mourns
his early demise, for he was but yet in
the prime of life. Theio have been
few truer men than
in Nebraska.

heavy body possesses great endurance.
An evidence of this was shown the
other day by & hound belonging to Mr.
J. A. Ford, of Battle Creek, Mich. Its
wner was stopping at a village six
miles from the above place, and getting
on the cars with the intention of re
turning home did not notice the ab
sence of the dog. He soon saw the
hound, however, following the train,
which at that time was running at the
rate of eighteen miles an hour. The
animal reached home a few minutes
after the train, having accomplished
the six miles in thirty minutes.
How Chickens Get Out of Shells. -
.American Farm Journal.
Take an egg out of a nest on which a
hen has had her full time, carefully
holding it to the ear; turning it around,
you will find the exact spot which the
little fellow is picking on the inside of
the shell; this he willdo until the in
side shell is perforated, and then the
shell is forced outward as a small scale,
leaving a hole. Now, if you will take
no tf the eggs in this condition from
under the hen, remove it to the house
or other suitable place, put It in a box
r nest, keeping it warm and moist, as
near the temperature of the hen as jos
sible (which may be done by laying it
between two bottles of warm water up
on jome cotton or wool), and lay a
glass over the box or nest, then you can
sit or Jdand, as is most convenient, and
witness the true modus operandi. Now
watch the little fellow work his way in
to t her world, and you will be amused
and instructed as "I have often doue.
After he has got his opening, he com
mences a nibbling motiou with the
point of the upper bill on the outside of
the shell, always working to the right
(if you have the large end of the egg
from yon, and the hole upward), un
til he has worked his way almost
around, say with one-half an inch in a
perfect circle; he then forces the cap
or butt end of the shell off, and then
has a chance to straighten his neck, and
therebv loosening his legs somewhat.
and so, by their help, forcing the body
from the shell.

Utilization of Small Streams.
Country Gentleman.
In general the land bordering upon
small brooks and even larger streams
running through farms or fields is en
tirelv useless and in many eases is i
nursery of noxious weeds and a harbor
for vermin. Hy the expenditure ot
little labor or a small sum of money
such useless land may be turned to
valuable account. By damming the
stream a pond of respectable size may
be made, which, stocked with nsh, w ill
become a source of larger income than
several times its area of the best land
upon the farm. Iish culture is too
ofien supposed to be a troublesome and
fussy business, in which one may spend
much money to little advantage. But
I ilo not propose hsh culture. I surrest
stocking the pond thus made with tish
of a kind easily kept, which will not
require to be fed artificially; such kinds.
in tact, as will feed, themselves. As a
rule, the most desirable things cost
for their attainment in proportion
to their scarcity and tlesirahilitv.
Trout, among lish, are the choicest
kind and the most costly to procure and
it is probable that the man who erets a
dollar for a pound of trout grown in a
pond has well earned his money. Lvery
one can not eat trout, as every one can
not drink champagne, but there are
agreeable and wholesome hshes. as well
as wines that cost verv little, and the
average person may well be contented
with them. A .perch, either white or
velkrw, is not far behind a trout in
llavor and firmness ef tleh, and this
lish will thrive in any pond above the
character ot a mud hole, ami in writer
that is too warm for trout. Ils are
easily grown in ordinary ponds, and
tlieC are choice meats. Blue!; bass is
a choice fish, and may be mixed with
chubs and minnows, upon which they
will feed. In fact, the kiud of fish to be
procured is altogether a secondary mat
ter to the making of the pom! for them.

A Sunday in London.
London pays nil possible respect to
the SuDbath. ' It is the characteristic of
Ei1.:' I-!i in contradistinction to tho
l"r. i:?h people that Sunday is kept
.-n rc l to holy duties. In Paris the
si. r v.. are open on Sunday, and the op
c. r'.s and theat- i s ri e I heir grand-t
performances, tia- chief elections are
held, and the creat horse races take
j-lac: in ihe Bois de Baulogne. Paris
!evot-3 Sunday lo just those things
which England and America would
tiihik i.-i.-t "appropriate to tlie day: but
Io!iif.-u keeps Sunday as closely as
Philadelphia, almost ail the population

rcat ou in the afternoon in the parks or
suh.i'.is. Consequently the Iondon
Sun-fay. with the stores' nil clo-'id. the

I Assuming that he is paid by the second
he cannot possibly spend his money, as
j he could not select his purchases and
j lay down the pieces fast euough. He
I could not throw it way; to pick up,
I cast, recover, pick up and cast again
; would take him two seconds, and
I if he worked all through the twentv
: ii i.v hours without rest, ho could only
: dispose of one-half his income. By
; living economically saving up for four
year-, he could, placing his live-cent
picec; side by side, matte a nickel belt
around the earth, or by converting his
snviugs into 1-cent pieces and mounting
them in a pile he would, jrt twenty
yeaiM, erect a road to the moon and
have $.500 to invest when he got there.
Should his amusement take a charitable
tv.-ist. he could out of a year's receipts
donate to every man, woman and child
in the United States 20 cents and have
money hdt over. Other vast possibili

Rare Elephants,
There are now on exhibition In New
York two peculiar elephants brought
from the mountains of the Malay Pen
insula, about SoO miles from Singapore.
They nr.! remarkable for their small
sizes l-eiug resjx-ctively twenty-eight
and thirty-six inches tall; and for being
covered with a thick coat of bristly
hair or wool. They are supposed to be
from -5 to 7 years old. In size they re
senihl.' the extinct elephants of Malta,
and in -veiicg those of Siberia. Their
o"l; t-oat is atriilniteil to the circum
stance that the live high upon the
mountains where the clima'e is cold.
The peeies appear to be all but un
known to naturalises, ihis pair being
thv- li;-4 ill at h.avo survived Ihe passage
lhroii- a t;;e heated low country to tho
co:--s and the subsequent journey by
sea. The ailors on the steamer which
brought them the Oxfordshire, Cap
tain C. P. Jones - named them Prince
and Sidney. Thev are described as
playful and harmless, and they keep
their little trunks stretched out to
strangers to be petted. They loved to
bo scratched on the under side of the
trunk close to the mouth, and they hold
their 'trunks curled back over" their
heads as long as anyone scratches them

Eubber Balls.
Tlie process of making hollow rubber
balls used by children as playthings is
quite curious, and may be interesting
to those not familiar with iL A llol
yoke writer thus tiescribes it:
These balls have a solid surface, are
made by a tlifferent process from that
of making the soft rubber balls which
are perforated by an opening, and. of
course, arc much more firm, durable
and elastic. The sheets of rubber pre
pared for balls are cut into strips of
double convex shape. The edges of
the strips are moistened with a prepar
ation of rubber and naphtha, by which
they are joined firmly together, three
of the strips being used for one ball.
This part of the work is done by
girls, and a skillful girl can earn about
$1.50 per day. When the strips are
joined together, the ball is very near
the shape of a Brazil nut. Before the
last opening is closed a small quantity
of carbonate of ammonia is put inside,
which, when subjected to strong heat,
will make the rubber expand and till
out the ball mold. The opening is then
closed with the adhesive mixture, and
it is placed in an iron mold of the size
and shape of the ball desired. The
molds are packed into frames, in which
they are subjected to the heat of a vul
canizer. They are kept in place in the frame
by iron rods along the side, and when
the frame is full, iron plates at the end
are screwed down tightly upon the
molds to hold them in place. These
iron plates are about three-fourths of
an inch thick, and so strong is the ex
pansive force of the rubber iu the molds
that they bend this thick iron rod into
a curve. If one of the mrdds should
work out of place while vulcanizing is
in process, the molds would fly out with
a noise like the report of a dozen pis
tols, and the work is spoiled. The
action of the heat does the rest. When
the molds are opened they contain the
perfect round balls, with no mark of
the places where the pieces were
placed. The slight ridge made by the
mold is ground oil' by a stone used for
that ouruose. and the ball is done.
