11 I. I m 8 11EMINGF0KD HKIIALD. THOS. J. O'KI'.IJIWE, 1'uliUatier. HEMINGFORD, -:- KEBKASKA. Cy Warman, author of "Sweet Mafic," eaj-B he shall In tho future wrlto only for his own pleasure. That, alas! is what ho did before Horses have taken to going craz whenever they see a woman In bloom ers. Not without reason la tho horso called man's best friend. Chicago is trying to stop bnsoban playing on Sunday, and Now Yorkers say they Intend to seal up every saloon on Sunday. Such is reform. Chicago papers claim that efficient polico work has caused half tho crimi nals to leavo tho city. Unless sho is careful Chicago will get below tho two million limit in population. It Ib now charged that a dying man was put out of a hospital In Chicago because he could not hand over tho $10 demanded for a week's lodging. Thank goodness none of them has yet got to the state where it is accused of throw ing out the corpses that fail to hand over a fee for embalming. That seems to bo coming, howover. The people residing in the vicinity of Curtis, Nob., have formally repudiated tho appeals for further assistance- for them on account of tho drouth of last year. Tho real drouth sufferers oro too busy with their promising new crops this year to pay any attention to the misleading statements which a few professional beggars arc circulating. Tho convicts In Sing Sing prison aro "laying for" McLaughlin, tho Now York polico Inspector sent up for extortion. It appears that a good many of them were sent up under McLaughlin's re gime, and they havo sworn to get even, if they havo to lynch tho unhappy in spector In tho prison to do it. The threats aro so numerous and so de termined that tho prison authorities havo taken tho matter up with a view to tho proper protection of tho ex-Inspector. The old settlers of Portage County, "Wisconsin, had a reunion at Plover a few days ago. Among thoso present was Benjamin Ellis, now 82 yenrs old, who was a passenger on the first train of cars run in tho United States, be tween BoBton and Lowell, sixty years ago. Mr. Hills was born in tho State of Mnin, and was in Boston when tho first experiment in railroading was made. A track was laid around Fan euil Hall and a car placed on It. Tho power was applied by men who turned a crank, and ho was one of them. This was bIx years before tho railroad from Boston to Lowell was built. At a recent mcelng of tho French Sennto Commltteo on tho Colonies M. Chautemps, tho Minister of Marine, be gan to read a bulky report on tho pres ent condition of tho colonics. At tho very first wo"ds sovernl sonators showed signs of restlessness, and finally one of them, bolder than tho rcast, cab "Pardon me, M. lo Mlnlstre, but you oro reading nn old ropprt with which we aro well acquainted, na It wns road to us by ono of your predeccssoora." Soveral members of tho commltteo be gan to smile. M. Chautemps muttered an apology and, folding up his papers, bowed himself out. The average expenses of tho students at Yalo Collcgo, according to the senior class book, are $912 for tho freshman year, $943 for the sophomore, $912 cad' for the Junior and senior years. There are many students whoso expenses are much less than theso amounts, but thero aro many others whoso expenses ' aro much more, to raise tho averago to more than tho earning capacity of tho average graduate for soveral years at least after ho leaves college. Theso figures would requlro an earning ca pacity of from $18 to $20 a week, or more than $3 a day for tho six working dayB of the week. How many college graduates can secure positions where they will earn $20 a week? Tho English Liberals are still assert ing that they wero turned out of power by a "snap vote." As it is evident that the whole question of the political com plexion of Parliament will shortly be settled by an appeal to tho country, It might be tho wiser part for tho Lib erals to strive to show cnuso why they should bo restored to power rather than to waste time in whimpering over the way In which they wero deprivpd of It. At this distance it docs not seem that tho lato Liberal regime In Parlia ment has produced any tangible re sults. None of the reforms promised lias been effected. Under Gladstone, as under Rosebery, tho Liberals wero Im potent to overcome the Inertia of ex isting conditions. A Conservative Par liament, it it wero to assume a reac tionary policy, may accomplish more for real Liberalism In England than lias the Liberal party as It has been constituted of late years. "At Waldo, Mnlne, the sheriff hat made all tramps who have sought as sistance pay for it by washing their own clothes. The result has been that there Isn't a tramp to bo found within twenty miles of the town," says an ox change. This story Is llko the tramp. It won't wash. Mr. W. L. Smith, a White Plains, N.

The telegram tolling of tho massacre of Christians, Including five women, at Ku Cheng, excited the gravest fears nt the head quarters of tho foreign bonrd of Methodist . missions in this city to-dny. Tho Motliodists have a mission nt Ku Cheng. It is in charge of Miss Mabel C. Hartford. Her as sistant is Miss W. H. Rouse. In ad dition to these It is feared that two other women, Miss Mabel Allen and Miss Sarah Peters are also in tho vi cinity of Ku Cheng. Corresponding Secretary A. B. Leon ard of tho Methodist board of missions, who has spent considerable time in China, said to-day:' In view of the fact thut wo havo received no cable gram from China, wo can only hope for the present that our people are safo and well. Had any of our people been massacred I am sure that the Rev. W. II. Lalry, our representative and treasurer at Foo Chow, from which place the advices wero received, would have cabled to us without de lay. Wo will not communicate with Mr. Lairy until wo receive information of tho alleged ninssacro fr'jin him. Miss Hartford is a resident of Dover, N. II., and hns spent several yearBasa missionary in China. Sho was somo time ago put in charge of the women's work at Ku Cheng. Miss Rouse, her assistant, came from Luke field, Minn. Tho Rev. Jacob Gillcson, secretary of the board of missions of tho Pres byterian church, said to-dny that his board had no missionaries within 260 miles of Ku Cheng. Ho expressed the opinion that tho massacre affected most seriously the church missionary society of England, which established a mission at Ku Cheng In 1847. Tho mission is attached to the church of England nnd has two houses there. The society maintains twenty-two schools in tho province. There Is also a small church for lepers In tho leper village just outsido of tho south gnto of tho Methodist Episcopal compound. Tho Itev. E. E. Chivors, secretary of the Baptist board of foreign missions, said that the Baptists havo no mission aries neurer the scene of the alleged massacre than So Chiang, which is 000 miles distant, utner missionaries are located at Chi King, which is about 00 miles from Ku Cheng. Washington Hoports. Washington, Aug. C. The state de partment has received a cablegram from United States Consul Jcrnigan, at Shanghai, stating that one Amer ican female missionary was wounded and four British femalo missionaries killed at tho mission of Ku Cheng. No further details aro given in the dis patch. The place is in the province of llogpe, far up on the banks of the Yang Tse river, beyond the reach of men-of-war, and about 400 miles north of Cheng Tu, where the last missionary riots occurred. Tho stato department will take steps in the matter at once. Under instructions from the state department, United States Minister Ucnby is now engaged In investigating the damages sustained by the Amer ican missions at Cheng Tu, China, dur ing tho rioting there. The Chinese government has already given assur ances that it will pay a suitable in demnity and has taken steps to ascer tain for itself through a commission the extent of the losses sustained by .ho foroigners. , Tho Herman Tldu to America. Washington, Aug. 5. A roport by Commercial Agent Stem at Bamberg, Germany, to tho stato department, shows that in 18'j1 Germany sent to the United States J4,2lO emigrants. The largest emigration was in 1881, numbering 000,179 persons. In 1803 there wero 75,102. During the twenty years covered by tho report tho Ger man migration to tlio United States amounted to l,78j,S14D, more than 00 per cent of tho total from tho empire. The imperial government is making every clfort to turn tho tide to the German colonies in Africa, but so far havo met with but little success. Kansas Furmore' Congress Delegate.
