THE mmtd What our Exchanges Say. Fremont ia having a general round- ' up of the dogs, and a good many have teen sent to the, happy land of dog dom. , ; ,.- Over 150,000 sheep have been brought to Nebraska during the past year, and favorable reports come in from all quarters as to their well doing. Omaha Telegram: An Iowa baby was at the transfer depot yesterday, but ho wasn't a"rock-a-bye baby" by a long shot. Ho is three and a half years old and weighs 133 poun is. His parents are both of medium size, and conduct their rotund offspring about by tho hand like any one else. Kearney New Era: A 14-year old son of Mr. J. C. Kay on Frenchman Creek in Culbertson county, was killed by a Uroncho pony, lie was picketing the animal out when it be came frightened and ran away; the boy became entangled in tho rope and was dragged eighty rods and so in jured that he c'ied in an hour. . Fremont Tribune: I-. D. Richards, who lias just returned from a trip through the section of Dakota that suffered so much from the overflows last spring says that a person who has not visited the country can hardly conceive of the amount of damage and desolation occasioned by the high wat ers. On a short trip of a few miles Mr. Kichards counted upwards of thirty unoccupied dwellings that had been unroofed, upset, and otherwise damaged. Beatrice Express: Saturday wit nessed the completion of the work that Beatrice has been watching with interest for nearly two years, viz: the completion of the 15. & M. line that is to give us direct communication with the IieDuhlican Valley, and enable us to go cast without change of cars. En gine 03. without any cars, came through yesterday from Culbertson, the present terminus, and is the first engine to pass over the new line. Tecuruseh Chieftain : J. W. Barnes, Esq.. on his return from Arizona stopped in Tecumseh a few days ago, to visit friends. Capt. 1'resson in forms us that he reports the Flatts- inouth Company, who are mining in Arizona, as having one million of dol lars worth of ore on the dump. It has always been asserted by old miners that Arizona was the Eldorado for miners, but until recently the fear of Indians has prevented much prospect ing. Mr. Barnes left for his home in Flattsmouth, on Tuesday. A very interesting account was liven bv Mrs. Bloomer of the first woman-suffrage effort made in Neb raska. It is not generally known that Mrs. Amelia Bloomer (after whom the Bloomer costume is named), of Council Bluffs, Iowa, was invited by tho Territorial Legislature of Neb raska, 1S53, to address them on the subject of Woman Suffrage. As the result of her addresses, a bill for this passed the House and came to its third reading in the Council and was only lost iTecause it was not reached, owing to tne fact that some members talked to kill time to prevent the passage of a bill for removing the Capitol. Mrs. Bloomer read passages from letters and papers to support her statement that but for this delay, Ne braska would have had Woman suff rage in her first constitution. Woman's Work Column m Beatrice Express, edited by Mrs. Colby. Capt. L. W. Colby, of the Beatrice Guards, was the successful candidate at Lincoln the other day, at the meet ing of the militia officers of the SUite, for the importont office of Colonel of the first regiment of Nebraska Na tional Guards, being elected by a handsome majority. W. J. Keller, of Clay County, was elected Lieutenant Colonel, and Geo. D. Adamson, of York, Major. The ' following regi mental offices are to be filled by ap pointment by the Colonel: A Surgeon with rank of Major, a Chaplain with rank of Captain, an Adjutant with rank of First Lieutenant, a Sergeant Major, a Quartermaster Sergeant, a Commissary Sergeant, a Drum Major and a Fife Major. We congratulate Mr. Colby upon this distinction, be lieving that he will fill the position with honor and credit. He has always shown a deep interest in military mat ters, and is now Captain of the Beat rice Guards. He was at one time, Captain of a company of Wis. Militia, and served two years, and for two years longer had charge of a battallion. Beatrice Express. DEAN STANLEY. His Death in London Yesterday A sketch of His Life. Arthur Fenrhyn Stanley ; died in London, yesterday. He was a son of Dr. Stanley, the Bishop of Norwich, and was born iaAlderley, Cheshire, in 1S15. He was educated at ltugby, under Dr. Arnold, during that period made familiar to all by the story of the adventures of Tom Brown. At Oxford, afterward, he distinguished himself by his scholarship, and gradu ated in ISiiS at the Uuiversity College. He remained there for twelve years afterward as a tutor. During his uni versity course he took the Newdigate prize for an English poem, "The Gip sies," gained the Irish scholarship. tok the Latin essay prize in 1839 and in the year following won both the En glish essay and the theological prizes. He was select preacher in 1843, and in 1831 was made Canon of Canterbury. He was successively regius professor of ecclesiastical history at Oxford. Canon of Christ Church,, and chaplain to the Bishop of London, until IStJI, when he was made Dean of Westmin ster. He was a leader of the broad church party. His "Life of Dr. Ar nold," published in 1844, was his first literary work to make him widely known. He also published "Sermons and Essays on the Apostolical Age" "Memoirs of Bishop Stanley," Histori cal Memorials of Canteibury," Ser mons on the Unity of Evangelical and Apostolical Teaching," as well as a large number of other sermons and lectures. He has also contributed many articles to the reviews and mag azines, and the Dictionary of Classical Biography and the Dictionary of the Bible, as well as to the Transactions of the Archaeological Institute. He was elected Lord Rector of the Uni versity of St. Andrews' in 1874. X. Y. Sun. Girardin and His Wife. Emile do Girardin, it is well known, lived on the most unfriendly terms with his second wife. The house was large enough to permit them to dwell entirely separate from one another. One day Mine, de Girardin had an im portant communication to mako to her husband. Taking a small sheet of pa per site wrote: "Tho Boudoir to tho Library. Would like to go to Switzer land.'" M. do Girardin, imitating her eoneiso style, ivjonl-.vl: "The Library to tuo Boudoir. Go." That was all. The Fatal Hot Ware. -: Cincinnati, July 17. Appalling as was tho number of prostrations from tho heat during the past week, as re ported in the daily press, tho official returns show that the story of suffer ing is but half told. The press re ports made the number of fatal cases about 40 each day; this number is more than doubled by the official re turns, which show that in six days there were 500 fatal cases. To this number should be added a large num ber of other deaths which are credited to old ago and various other diseases, but are really due to the excessive heat. Such a death rate is without a parallel in the history of the city. The deadly heat came without warn ing and did its work with a merciless swiftness that tho most fatal epi demics have rarely equaled. Men were stricken and died while being carried to their homes. Others fell in the streets or at their places of business, and were dead before intelligent as sistance could be rendered them. Bolts of avengeful lightuing could hardly have dene their work quicker. I torn the first warning to the last coming breath the victim was conscious only of suffering, and night brought almost no relief. People died in their beds who retired in the best of health and the hospital ambulances were kept running until the fiery rage of another sun broke over the city. Many of those whose circumstances would per mit fled to the north, but this number was small compared to what it would have been had the fearful mortality been known at the time. People be came gravely apprehensive, but it is only now that tho official report of deaths has been given that they real ize the fiery ordeal through which they have passed. It is remembered, too, that many hundreds were severely stricken who escaped death, but will henseforth be particularly sensitive to excessive heat, and are prepared for that most obstinate disease, brain trouble. The weather is cool and re frejiing to-day and the congratula tions which are heard on every hand, Are earnest and reverent, The recent popular expression of opinion on the patronage system has shown that Mr. Albert Stickney did not anticipate public sentiment in naming his series ot raper.s in benu ner on civil service evils, "t'lie f'e- ple's Problem," It remains to be seen with how much favor the people, who now no longer need tho urcunient of his first paper (which was to show how the spoils system works practical disfranchisement.) will regard the scheme which he suggests by way of permanent reform. It is not enough he thinks, that tenure of office shall be made secure; the system of repre sentative elections must be remodeled. Mr. Stickney pfits forward his Sugges tions modestly, but with earnest woju victjon that they are in the right di rection. The third and concluding paper will show how this plausible system can be practically put into op eration. It is a comprehensive and lawyer-like series of papers, worth tho close reading of every voter, however one may differ with the writer as to the details. During the session at Albany, yes terday, Senator Tuthill took occasion to define his position relative to the struggle over U. S. Senator in very plain language: "In the course of his speech he referred to CoLkling's letter of acceptance and said it would bo read when the vile traducers of the illtstrious senator were dead and for gotten, lie continued as follows: If the United States senate re to-day called together it would be democratic. It would have been on the day Senator Blaine resigned. So it would have been when Windom resigned, so it would have been when Senator Kirk wood resigned, and so it would have been when Senator Garfield declined. But no faction of the republican legis lators of Maine, Minnesota, Iowa and Ohio undertook to overthrow the time honored usage of all parties in tha usual decent and orderly way by which individual preferences were submitted to the arbitration tf caucus and har mony of choice promptly insured. So it should have been here. One hour of common fairness and honest methods would have saved us three weeks of contention and the state the disgrace of painful and damning disclosures, when a vigilant and unprincipled lobby, by the black art of bribery, had taken the field. Thousands of dollars were traced from banks to pockets of their co-laborers with all the attendant suspi cious circumstances. It was time to adjourn when the grand jury, on am ple testimony, had agreed with the in vestigation, in. its painful duty by in dicting half a dozen of the ring lead- era in this unholy crusade for offenses punishable by imprisonment in the state prison. It was time to call a halt; it was time to adjourn when a certain candidrte while yet holding a majority vote of the republican, was so smirched with bribery as to render its support impossible. When the trick of an irregular caucus with the secret purpose of his withdrawal was played, it was time to adjourn. When certain participants therein had become so low and degraded as to be willing to allow themselves to b used as a step ladder by sneaks and transom peeping piruis, in order to give the color of truth and currency to a weak invention and base slander against an honest citizen it is time to adjourn. This infamy was never surpassed ex cept perhaps by those who pledged their word and bartered it at Chicago, only that they might wreak their spite on the most illustrious soldier of the century, whose only fault it was and is that he possessed that in tense that intrepid valor which ena bled him in the dark days of supreme trial to bo the savior of his country, why not adjourn ? Can you not truat your governor to call you together, after reason shall have resumed its sway? When did you learn that you could not trust lios coe Conkliug to go to the people? were you afraid to trust him before the peo ple of Indiana and Ohio? Every repub lican heart yearned for much needed victory, when it was confessed that the electoral vote of New York was absolutely essential to the election of Garfield, were you afraid to give the Mag into his keeping? I insist that the responsibility of this long continued farce shall be placed where it properly belongs. "Every line is entertaining" Grand Rapids Leader. GOOD COMPANY, NUMBER TWENTY-TWO. Good Company, (S3.00 a year; Springfield, Mass.) Number twenty two opens with a long, complete story filling seventeen pages, bv Ellen W. Olney, entitled -A Pair of Silk Stock ings." It has another of the Arctic papers by Lieutenant Schwatka, under the heading In the Land of the Mid night Sun." There is an articlo by Mrs. Gen. Lew Wallace, "The Land of the Pueblos; The Pimos;" an install ment of the serial story now in course of publication. "Mildred's Caprice;" a number of poems and various miscel laneous articles. ! Treventing Sunstrokes. The following hints for the preven tion of sunstroke are given by Dr. Ed ward C. Mann of St. Louis, in an ar ticle upon this subject in one of the medical journals: "To avoid sun stroke, exercise iu extremely hot weather should be very moderate; the clothes should be thin and loose, and an abundance of cold water should . be drank. Workmen and soldiers should understand that as soon as they cease to perspire, while working or march ing in the hot sun, they aro in danger of sunstroke, and they should irn ediately drink. Laborers or soldiers, and others who adopt this measure. washing their hands and faces as well as drinking copiously of water every tune they come within reach of it, will geneially eujow perfect immunity from sunstroke. Straw hats should bo worn, ventilated at the top, and tho crown of the hat filled with green leaves or a wet sponge. It is better to wear thin flannel shirts, in order not to check perspiration. We may expose ourselves for a long time in the hot sun, and work and sleep in a heatev room, and enjoy perfect immunity from sunstroke if we keep our skin and clothing wet with water. Does Farming i'ajf Some interesting conclusiens are drawn from the carefully kept account books of a New York farmer which ought to aid in disposing of that vexed and venerable inquiry "Does Farm iug Pay V" There was to begin with a $10,000 farm and $1,132 of tools, a to tal investment of 311,133. For the first ten years (1831 to 1841) tho aver age net annual income was 1,150; for the second ten, about the same; fer the third ten, 81,320 per year; for the fourth ten, 2.230 per year; for the fifth ten (1371 to 1881, covering the period of the hard times) $3,201 per year. During all this time the farm has been ste;;dily Jittered, and the financial results have improved in prq portion. In the last twenty years the net annual income has been 10 per cent, on S22,60S.o3, which would now ).e considered a full valuation of the land, stack and implements. This very satisfactory showing was achiev ed, not by the raising of aiiv fcpecial crops whatsoever, but by mixed hus bandry ; and not under any particularly lortunate circumstances none more feriifH:?t than the farmers 111 the State of New Vei'k H-ally enjoy." We read further that "nine-tenths of tjii capital used, and now invested has coiuo pjt pf lie profits, and the results have been attained 'iyithp'fft excessive labor, or unbecoming frugality, tfr neglect of the duties and enjoyments of social life." Prairie Farmer. A Desirable Reform. Is. Y. Sun. They have a law in California which prohibit public officials from accept ing free passes over any railroad, un der penalty of forfeiture of their posi tions. This provision was absurdly construed in the case of Mayor Kall och, ft'ho, bejng proved to have receiv ed street car passea in the city of San Francisco, was nevertheless acquitted, on the ground that he accepted them is his capacity ng a citizen and not as Mayor. On the same principle a Jude who takes a bribe might be acquitted, provided he does not receive it while sitting in court. It is no argument, however, against the excellence f this provision that it has received such an irrational con struction. A law like this, strictly construed and rigorously enforced, would be useful in every State j;; the Union. Everywhere we find railroad officials buying the favor of men in public posts by giving them the privil ege .of free conveyance over their lines. From the tiighfu' prosecuting officers und legislators downj all the so-called representatives of the people, except the few who reject the bribe, are thus subsidized. We have a Legislature, now in ses sion at Albany, that has illustrated in a signal manner the value of the free pass system. This Legislature has earned distinction in many ways, and one or. tne cmet or tneae must te con ceded to be the investigation of charges of bribery against the New York Cen tral Uailroad Company, in which every member of tho committee appointed to judge of the evidence, not excluding Mr. Irastus Brooks, had in his peeked at the time a bribe iu shape of a pass over the lines of the accused corpora tion. There are pi obably not ten men in the Legislature who have had honor or selfrenetft enough to refuse to trav el as deadheads over the railroads of this fcjtate. When weekly adjourn ment takes place, and our legislators leave Albany in car loads, the con ductors hardly stop to look for tickets. They take it for granted that none in those crowd pay their way. We see the result of all this in the unblush ing way in which the Xew York Cen tral carries its purposes at Albany, ex cept when a sudden and overwhelming cutburst of public opinion compels it to retire temporarily from the stage. We need look no further for illustra tions than to the reports of the Bribery Investigating Committer, lie repeated delays and postponements in the par age of the Hailroad Commission bill, and tha persistency with which Mr. Chauncey M. liepy.y was retained as a Senatorial candidate arte- t;p bribery exposures. It cannot be said that the acceptance of free passes is a trifling matter. In the first place, it betrays an utter fail ure to appreciate the duties and the position of a legislator, who may at any time be required to pass upcu ques tions affecting the railway corpora tions. Such a failure alone suffices to prove unfitness for that high office. In the second pla.ee, even viewed as a question of money, the railroads might just as well give money bribesof tvp .or three hunderd dollars, as free passe for a session of the Legislature. To get a full understanding of thia question, we need only ask why it is that the railroads distribute their passes. Let this question be answer ed. Why does ever' newcomer in he chambers of the Legislature, previous ly perhaps wholly ui.Ic:vyn, and inca pable of procuring a free ticket tyen by the most abject solicitation, now find one at his service? If it be given through f.ear. it is extortion and black mail to accept it." Jf through the hope of obtaining favors, it is 1 livery. The sooner it be made a misde meanor, punishable by forfeiture of office and incapacity to hold any pub lic position of trust or profit, for any official in the service of the people to accept free railroad passes, tie better will it be for the character and dignity of our Legislature and for the welfare of the State. Tli? report on color-blindness recent ly presented to tjie English Oplithalmo logical society on moio than eighteen thousand persons suffering from it win hare been examined contains many cu rious nd suggestive facts. For in stance, color-bliud men are nearly 5 per cent, of the male population, while the percentage among women is hardly per cent. Another result of the inves tigation is that there is an unusually large proportion of color-blind persons among tho society of Fronds. J-IMIIES GRACE Retail Liquor Dealer, CIGARS AND TOBACCO.
