About four years ago the State of Nebraska made an appropriation for the erection and maintenance of the above named institution to be located at Beatrice, Nebraska, for the avowed purpose of taking care of and the due training of the feeble minded chil dren of the state, of which there is a large number, and up to the date of the opening of the Beatrice institu tion absolutely without the proper means of education. It is indeed wonderful to note the great work ac complished by the very efficient of ficers and teachers of this truly no ble institution. When the institute was first opened for the receival of children, ranav were taken in who had but little knowledge of this world and with but little hope of much improvement- Yet Superin tendent Armstrong aLd his able corps of assistants. Jiiss Wood, matron; and the Misses McLain, Bosbyshell, La Salle. and Mrs. Baiterfield, teachers, have, by persistent and self-sacrificing efforts "brought order oat of chao?," as it were. Many of those self-same children, are today on the highway to succees as far as self sustaining capabilities are necessary, and many are iakin; a good common school education, while of course, there are some whose cases are com paratively hopeless, but they, as well as all have a home in the institution equal, if not better, than their wn, and are shown the most tender care and consideration by the officers, teachers and employes' so much so that thev are loath to leave the buil ding when the time comes for them to return home for vacation. Jt is certainly a great and noble mission on the part of those whose minds are deeply engrossed in the good work of trying to "keep those who cannot keep themselves.'' The state should be very liberal in this regard and in stead of persuing a parsimonious pol icy, should endow her state institu tions in a liberal manner thereby giv ing aid to those who are thrust upon the tender mercies of a cold and un feeling world to do or act in the same capacities of their more fortunate brethren. At the end of the school term, June 27, the following pro gram was rendered by the children in as able a manner as will be seen in some of our more advanced common schools, and when taken into consid eration that many of the participants had to be trained for months on the most simple problem, it is still more wonderful that they have made such rapid improvement: PROGRAM. Sons "Welcome" Response. Song -lappy Greeting." Eedtadon "Over in the Meadow." Becitation "Wbeo. I am Ilia." Recitation " Little Uirl's Fancies." ReciUttoB "How Braes we Kbow."

The jolly joker files his aaswer to his arraiagment with the coart: Mystery of mysteries, that the sim ple report of the finding of three dead bodies should create a wild sensation. A verification of the Cowpenc senti ment "God moves in a mysterious way, his wonders to perform," aad that other things are not all what they seem, yet one other -truth and false hood are so similar in their mien that wisest men cannot fully discern be tween." He who speaks an natrutk, lies or falsifies, which ever term is deemed most modest or most wise. That mother skunk and her two darlings may yet to fame ia history attain as veritable martyrs to the cause of truth.

This will probably be the finest en tertainment of the kind ever held in the state o Nebraska. Larpe crowd's will be here from all parts of Nebraska and surrounding states until Bed Clou I will be overflown with a multi tude of people.

It win be a sight that wiUlastyoa a life-time. Remem ber that it occurs next week. Lerjbody should added Tree. It seems that the story of budded tree is still told by handed clans of tree-agents. I nna tn ir mail this morning four letters from widely- separted points telling of their method of work lag. They work with "two sticks." one from a budded tree which is dean, white and sound. aad one front a root grafted tree tnat ass as om look and a buck heart. They do not pretend to deliver budded trees, butto give thm that ap pearance they usually deliver what the nursery. sn call "cut-backs. One concise, precise note front C.W. Gurney, or Dixon coanty, aen. tells the whole story, as it comes to me from all sources. It is a fraud, but what can it do about it? If I should tell the taleeach week, in an the agricsltoral papers, how many victims would read it, or heed it? Yet. something may be done by those wlio do read, to stop such rank swindling. Where real budded trees are delivered, perhaps nothing can be done, as the people who beiiere, or who are tftj.iy to believe, that budded trees are best, must he permitted to buy them at any price agreed on, up to ten dollars per tree. But make eat deliver budded trees, or advise toe purea asersterefuse them. The agent will have no defence, as it is a mere question of iasaection of the trees in court.
