" Women May Vote.
Women may vote in school meet
ings, l nans, sue may vote if she prop
erly qualities herself. The require
ments are of three kinds; she may own
real estate in the district; she may have
personal property upon the assessment
roll ; oi she may hav e babies more than
five years old. If she complies with
either of these conditions, she may exer
cise the yeoman s privilege. The prop
erty requirement may be defended pos
sibly on the ground that if she pays
taxes she has interest ia the disposal
of school money ; but w lien tlyj privi
lege of voting is dependent upon her
babies, we submit that it is rather hard
to require her to commence five or six
years back. Two good yearling babips
are worth as much as one rive year old
anytime. And we believe that this
should be like the naturalization law,
which does not require an applicant to
be fully naturalized, but lets him vote
when he has declared his intentions.

The whole world was shocked to
read in the columns of their Monday's

of all the Russias, Alexander 11. was
foully assassinated on the 13ih inst.
by an emissary of the Nihilists, that
Hystericus secret society which has
for years been plotting his death, ami
after five previous attempts has at
last succeeded in its terrible design.
The deed was done by means of a
glass globe containing nitro-glycer-ine,
which was thrown into his car
riage while returning from an imper
ial parade, two being thrown before
the desired object was accomplished.
He is succeeded by his son Alexander
III. One of the paities who threw
a bomb has been arrested, the other
escaped.

New and Practical Imprureuicnts.
We have just introduced and
thoroughly tested many improvements
in our course of studies and manner
of imparting instruction and now of
fer a thorough course in both theory
and practice.
Our course of "Business Practice"
baa ali of the advantages of the East
man and other methods without any
of their unavoidable attendants of
noise, idleness, fiction or expensive
ness. This course recognizes the necessity
of pupils having well established prin
ciples for -practice, . wiiich it is tho
siecial purpose of our theoretical
pourse to thoroughly teacU ; when tike
coursa of Business practice quickly
enables any jijdustrious pupil to com
prehend the details and connections of
business and the true relations cf the
accountants thereto and give an un
precedented practical readinesa in
making and using any of the business
papers used by the most expert ac
countants. This course is not the fiction of mere
theories nor is it intenUed t supply
the place of thorough practical instruc
tors by the display oi pretended offices
banks, bazaars, &c, to make idlers and
dummies believe that they can acquire
efficiency without study or teaching.
But it is the result wf long study and
many efforts of the most thorough
teachers, practical business men and
experienced accountants, who were
well acquainted with the former
methods.- Assured that the practical
utility of this course will be appreci
ated and that it will son supercede
all ethers, we will teach it fiec of
charge to all who enter for the theoret
ical course within a reasonable time.

The Auulterat ou of food.
Strict State's-rights advocates may
demur to the measure of having a
commission of tbree' experts to inquire
into the adulieration of food iu the
United States. Of pourse it is both
proper and incumbent upon t.be Legis
latures of the several States to pVutect
their citizens from the cheating and
the danger of adulteratious. But if
we can rely ou the startling statements
of analytical chemUU ty the House
Committee on Epidemic Diseased, it
may be that it would be x i&e to have
a general act of Congress so siriygwn;
as to bring uniform relief ad protec
tion. A Chicago chemist examined
fourteen samples of sugar, some white,
some colored, so tie granulated; in
twelve he found tin in the form of a
chUiide, ha votive poison. He found
that several syru'w wera made essen
tially of glucose, with iu., i-ium,
iron and magnesia, and in quantities
that made them very poisonous.
Sugar is largejy adulterated with glu
cose. Othei- articles found. to be adul
terated were bating powders- confec
tionery, mustard, viuegar, tea and cof
fee. It is evident that nothing but
very strict laws, with heavy penalties,
nd rigorously enforced, will - check
thfcse.rensive and scandalous assaults
upon the pvkets and the health of the
people. Meanwhile,-)$ every sugar

Times at The I'lif Teisiijv
Since the founding of the Univer
sity, nothing has caused as much gen
oral exciirmei.t -and cuiniuents
throughout the state as the late
trouble over the College Paper, viz:
"The Hesperian Student." This paper
is published by the students and each
t the two Literary Societies elect an
Editor-in-chflf and fuse on the rest of
the officers. The Palladian Society
elected their Editor without any
trouble but uot so wilh the Union So
ciety, the two faction- are so nearly
equal, that after two or three meet
ings in which no selection was made,
the affair was referred o the Faculty
by one Faction, much to the disgust
and opposition of the other. Tho Fac
ulty after investigating the affair de
cided in favor of the partv that had
referred the matter to them and gave
their decision in chapl, but imagine
their (the faculty's) surprise on seeing
the paper appear the next day with
the name of the one whom they had
decided against as editcr-in-chief from
the Uuion Society.. Such a bold ac
tion on the part of the students could
not be overlooked and thev held that
the Board of Managers were responsi
ble for the printing of the paper and
unless thev could prove that they
were not instrumental in its appear
ance, they would be suspended, and as
they could no! or rather would not do
this, the,-, seven in mnaber, were
compelled io leave the University for
the remainder of this term. They
will be allowed to re-enter next term
and take their accustomed places.

The MeXurliu School House Entente.
In the casts tried before Judge .Sulli
van, in which R. Countryman and R.
McNurlin were plaintiffs and prose
cuting w itnesses, and. certain young
men, scholars in that school district,
were defendants, it seems from the
statements made that the directors
were not satisfied with the course of
the teacher, a Mr. Gregory, while the
older scholars were, because lis the di-
ilCllUo tiiCillll itC li b I'..,: ig ImAS
j run the schojl. One word brought ou
t ano'her as is usual in such cases, un
til one tine morning Mr. Counirymaii
add Mr. McNurlin went ver to the
school house to discharge the teacher,
and two of the Rhoden boys, with
some aid fix-m otl.i i.s, pitched in 'and
about cleaned the directors out, hence
the suit.
Before this, however, it seems eight
of the boys sent a letter to the direc
tors teliing them to keep away from
the school if they wanted to be healthy,
which offence, viz: writing threaten
ing lectern, was one more count in the
indictment, which was for assault and
battery, obstructing school board in the
performance of their duty and writing
threatening letters.
The case was really compromised,
the defendants pleading guilty, and
the case to be settled on the first two
charges. Judge Sullivan gave the boys
a very handsome little mora! lecture
on the fact that they were not quite
old enough yet to be the best jud;;:-8 of
how a school should be taught, and
that it was dangerous to obstruct the
law, and then fined them as follows:
Don and Richard Rboden 920 and
costs. (they two making the assault)
and J. W. Rhoden, Wm. Kriss, C. G.
Fleming, J. K. McConaha and J. Q.

Ed. IIeiiald: Was glad to see my!
urticle ou tho railroad question iu your
columns of March 3d.
Now, Editor, when I wrote the arti
cle I did'ut intend to- any criti
cism on the editor or his paper, only
what 1 wrote I still adhere to.
Your article of Feb. 17th from the
Omaha Republican, you claim was the
sentiments of both sides. I claim, and
very person I have spoken to on the
subject claims, that it represents the
railroad sh e only. It gives Mr. Tou
zalin's sde of the question only. Iu
Vour answer,of March 3d ywti claim
you did not publish the railroad side
only ; you claim you did not omit what
-Mr. Hose water said; "you also claim
Mr. Rose water did not publish both
sides of the question. We farmers
claim he did. If you look in the Oma
ha Bee of Feb. 10th, you will see both
sides published. Now you claim the
editor ef the Hf.t:ali was snowed in
at Lincoln, and did not " return, until
the next week, which prevented your
giving the principal points on lioth
sides. Vow, editor, if that was the
casebow was it you gave Mr. Touza
liu'sside? It is strange if the mails
were delayed how Mr. Touzalin's re
marks were on time. Now yon claim
myself or lrieuds, if I have any, (come
out Mac. and see) had better lead
straight before we criticise. As I told
you, I didn't intend to cast any reflec
tion? on the editor, only stating facts.
In return you publish an insulting an
swer. You said you had to re-wriie
my letter before it was lit for publica
tion, also to pay up for the paper we
take. Now, Mr. Editor. 1 didn t claim
to have a college education, but I claim J
to have as good an e.'.ucauon as most
of the farmer boys. 1 am sorry it
takts such a fine education to be a cor
respondent of the Plattsjiouth IlEK-i
A Li). The last remark contains some
truth; send in your little bill, Mac, and
it will be settled if I have to borrow
the money. Now, you claim my letter
represents my sentiments, and those
of some one else; the letter was my
own, it it had been anybody e!s's it
might have been fit for publication.
Since your .answer a good many farm
ers have said the letter was right.
Yon say my letter was like the boy's
story the politician told alxnitlast fall
it isii t true. 1 claim it is. ami can
prove it by taking your own paper and
the Bee. "You said you was coming
out to see; come ahead and we will
treat you more like a gentleman than
urn have treated me in jour paper.
Hoping this will find space in your
columns I remivir. yours respectfully.

We have seen Michael Cavey we
are alive; Mike left town just after. It
came about this way. Mike was down
town and we struck him; Mike re
market! that he left his little shot gun
home that day. We answeied that
our mountain howitzer was loaded and
strapped ou a mule up at the office
ready for acthfii in a moment.
Then we jawed, he had the most jaw
but we had the best wiud, and Cavey
caved, provided we would publish one
more letter. W have, it's up here,
you can all read it. It's just like the
other. It ain't tru; it goes over the
same ground, it re-asserts just what
we proved were not the facts. It's too

Ed Hekaad: About 3 o'clock on
Tuesday atternoon our neighborhood
was thrown into an unusual flutter of
excitement by the.shooting of Charley
Leming with a shot gun in the hands
of Ernie Crosser. . The following are
the particulars as near as we can get
them:
Leiuing and Crosser were both
young men (the latter only 17 years of
age) and have been working for J. II.
Allison the past winter-; at the time
above stated J he boys took a team and
went together to the residence of W.
W. Wiley, a distance of a half mile
on some errand. The latter leaving
the former with the team went into
house and ou going iu at the door
picked up a gun which happened to be
clone by and without noticing what he
was doing or thinking what the re
sult might be raised tho weapon to his
shoulder and flre'd. His comrade who
was holding the team a distance of 23
ejsoff received The charge in the
head and faco and it came near prov
ing fatal. Mr. Leming was taken
back to Mr. Allison's -and Dr. Wallace
of Factoryvil'e was called and dressed
the wounds. Tile discharge from" the
gun being tine shot and only a part
taking effect no bones were found to
be broKen but it inflicted a seysre flesh
wound ou the head and face. Several
shot were removed but not all taken
out. At this writing the wounded
man is improving rapidly and it is
thought he will be up and around in a
few days.
L. W. Patterson started for Kansas
Wedned;y last, Mr. Jo Campbell
takes posession of the old place. It is
rumored that Charley Moore and Mat
Wolf have gone to Kansas in a sleigh,
as they have not been seen in this vi
cinity for three or four days. The
beautiful snow is fast disappearing.

Dio Lewis, "no young ui.iu addicted to
the use of tobacco has graduated at
the head of his class in Harvard Col
lege. A little buy went to a temperance
meeting where many requests for
prayer were pieseut it. Some of them
by children, tyr their laihers and oth
er friends. He became very much
afft cted, ami with tears iu his eyes
asked prayer forLiis father, that he
might be saved fiom di ink. Some of
the ladies assured him that his father
didn't drink. He replied : "No, not yet,
but I'm afraid he will, for he smokes
jiftt like any thiny." His worthy sire
taned to relish the publicity given to
his private habits, and what he did
about it is not written in the records.
But bid the candid littltf boy look
any further than the end of the road
that begins in smoke? The same dis
position to look things honestly in the
face would save many a household
from sorrow. Signal.

with boys.drowninghis joys;
Drinking with men just now aud then.
Waiting his life, killing his wife,
Losing respect, manhood all wrecked,
Losing his friends thus it all ends.
GIa3 number one, taken in fun,
Ruined his life, brought on strife.
Blighted hs youth, sullied his truth,
In a few years brought many tears,
Gave only pain, stole all his gain,
Made him at last friendless, outcast.
Light-hearted boy, some body's joy.
Do not begin early in sin;
Grow up a unvn brave as you can:
Taste not in fun glass number one.

In answer lo another instance of the
often repeated taunt that temperance
organizations have spent a mint of
money and are no nearer Total Absti
nence than ever, the Alliance News
has a good iliu.straiiou, "It was only
last Sunday that if we may venture
on the bull, the two ends of the St.
Gothard tunnel met iu the mid lie, and
this only occurred after patience and
very expensive labor had beeti pro
trapted through eight long weary

some seventy men, including the co!i

healthiuess of that subterranean toil,

mountains. At any time before this,
any one might have said, "Here has a
fat ami nourishing company ut-en in :

in the W";'k of tunnelling a princely .

- ' ' - .The Combative Olaau
i - ' . -In
diving for clams (iu in etonus
diving) it is usual t5 provide" oneself
with sharp 'pointed stake -.or an iron
rod. At Artutaki. When the tide is out.
ehinis ae picked up everywhere on the ;
reef. At Mauka men dive for them - on
the ocean side of the narrow fringing;
reef when the sea is smooth. On reaching
,the bottom the diver stabs the gaping
clam, which-for tho nidlhisk i very
tenacious of life at once tirtnlj- gr.np
the weapon. The diver now tugs with
both hand-s until the clam is dislodged.
A couole of expert natives with a canoe
will get as many .-n a hundred in a day
when a least n in preparation, m
Manibiki aiul Htkaanga the largest
clams are about two spans in length,
the animal it-elf U'iiig sutlioiontly l uge
to satisfy the hunger of threv persons.
Clam diving is wo:i.:i'i's work in those
atolls. Yet it is surprising how fw ac
cidents occur. Thtf r. aon for this may
be thej- dive in comparatively shallow
water. ;
Not lonrr since a native was feeling
about the b-'itom of the. lagoon of one
of tho Pauniolu a'ohs f.r tins dark
edged pearl oyster, when he unfortun
ately inserted "the ligers of his left baud
ltetween the valves of a clam. Tho
diver was instantly made prisoner by
the molhisk. His agny was iutenio.
Wai it possible to get free. As the
c!airwad in a hollow just adapted to its
size, he could not sever the byssua. At
length, in sheer terror of drowning, he
cut"off his four lingers with the knife
pearl-divers carry with them, and rose
to the surface a sadder if not a wiser
man. A similar accident took place at
Peuryns; but the diver, instead of maim
ing himself for life, forced a knife
beTween the valves and released him
self. Should the clam be attached to a
smooth bit of coral, the speediest mode
of rescue is to sever the bundle, of silky
lilament by which it moors itself. On
a neighboring is'and, ere this could be
doiuCthe forefinger of the right hand of
a clam-diver was lopped off. Brought
ashore in baskets, they live for some
time. Children in their play are apt to
put thcis- lingers between the open
valves, and "so get caught. Their
screams so m bring their parent to tho
rescue, which i e lied ci by stabbing
the clam thron ;'i the cavity for the
bvssus. Tim supply of tlmus in the
Pacific is itipxhai'-iiole. If a party of
divers sin uhl '-iii..ve ail the large ones
from any particular loea'ity for a grand
fer-st. is rid should rein- n net year to the
fiv.ne sp.t. n difference would be per
ceive!, so rapid U the growth of the
clam m t .es.; warm waters. Pearls of
a peculiarly brilliant hue are occasional
ly found in the clam.
QreeDbose and Window Plants.
Insects, when found on the plants,
should be destroyed at once bjr using
tobacco water, soapsuds, etc. PlanU,
if neglected, may be ruined in a short
time. Success in the light with insects
depends largely upon one's promptness
and perseverance.
Climbers, like English ivy, tropajo
luiu, German ivy, etc., add very much
to the beauty of a greenhouse or win
dow. Hanging baskets should be placod
where they can have an abundance of
light aud" sunshine, and not near the
stove or i-egister. If tho light come
from one side, the basket ought to be
turned every day.
Watering: The successful culture of
house plants depends largely upon the
care in watering. The pots should have
some pieces of brokcu iHts or oj'ster
shell put in the bottom to provide pro
per drainage; with good drainage there
is but little risk from over-watering.
A thorough wetting when water is need
ed, is far better than keeping the sur
face moist, by frequent "sprinkling."
Hanging baskets-may be dipped into a
tub of water.
A gradual change: We should have
much fewer complaints of failure with
house plants if they were less subjected
to sudden changes", both when they are
brought in from their summer out-of-
doors, and while in the house in winter.
When the air of the room, is changed it
should be done without allowing a cold
current to fall upon the plants.
Invention IV Oaliaing the Stormy Sea.
A recent cab e from lon ion, says?
The inventive gniu of a Scotchman,
has, if we are to be'i'-ve the Scotch pa
pers of to-day, found a way to accom
plish something which man has never
before dreamed of name! v, calming
the stormy sea. Mr. Shield's, of Perth,
has invented a way of stilling tho waves
of the ocean, and put it into successful
operation. He sinks bottles filled with
oil; the bottles are opened by a process
devised by the inventor, and the oil,
ascending lo the surface, stills the
waves, thus reducing the proverb
about "pouring oil upon the troubled
waters" to practice. The invention
his betn. lestoil at Pcl.erb.ead, it is said,
wilh amazing success. The Scotch pa
pers are full of it. The invention may
not be practicable upon the seas, where
a vast quantity of oil would manifestly
be required to still a dangerous storm,
but if tho claims of Shields, th! inven
tor, are genuine, it could be made very
useful in calming open roadsteads or
illy-sheltered harbors.

A gentleman of high social and bust
ness standing in tho citj was making a
trip on one of the found steamers last
fad. when ! whs npp'-oi'-lied by a
quietly -dressed and soft-spoken y.ung
man, who made a few general remarks
and then asked:
"Are you open for business to-night?"
"Yes; I'm always ready for business."
was the reply.
"Thought so. Your clothes are all
right, and yon talk political economy
like an orator, but your face gives you
dead awav. I spotted -4011 as soou as
we left New York."
The gentleman was dumbfounded,
ami while in this condition, the other
queried:
'Shall it be an even whack-up?"
-I 1 "
'I think we are certain to strike eijr
gar in this crowd."
"My friend, I fear I am ignorant of
whiit you are driving at. What busi
ness is it yon wish to talk over?"
'Come don't try anv of that on me.
I'm wiliiusr to make a fair divide,"
Of whiit? There's my card, sir; and
I should like to see yours."
The stranger took the card, looked it
over, gave tho merchant a close inspec
tion, and then aiiswere.l:
"Well, I'm beaten for the first tima
i.i ten years! Are you going back on
this line?"
"Yes."
"Ti: 11 you should have some one
along who can swear to your identity,
and you'd better hand your card to ev
ery man who comes within six feet of
your nose! Good evening I'm sleepy!"
t was two or three daj-s before the
gmtlviii 111 could make out vyhatjt a.ll
rueant, and it is said tljat lie is now try
jog to change his facial expression.
David W. Vanderen, who for a week
