Ho Bays ho Is feeling ns gay ns n girl In n fihlrt wnlst, Happy thought! In St Louis a wotnnn Is advertising for b pair of lost bloomers. Wo hnvo seen a number of bloomers loose In this vicinity. Spain ought to send calomel and qui slno to Cuba as nmmunltlon to her sol diers. Doctors nro needed more than generals. Two men with a banjo nnd a mando lin havo accumulated $4G0 while cross ing tho continent on their wheols.lt Ib evident that peoplo havo paid well to get them to move on. Sis boys who played ghost In tho cemetery at Carltop, Minn., wero caught In tho act and fined (10 each. Had they not dofacod tho tombstones and tam pered with tho graves the "ghosts" would undoubtedly havo been over looked. Threo secret service men nro now guarding Gray Gables from tramps nnd peddlers. They nro each on duty eight hours out of tho twenty-four. Thoy don't keep dogs, but can wing tramps easily nt sixty rods. So far as tho most soarchlng inquiries go, it appears that only two women wear bloomors on bicycles In Washing ton. Tho men who nro apt to know about such things report but two women who havo so far braved tho eyes of tho public with the bloomer costume. As n matter of fact, If women oro going to discard skirts, why not adopt knicker bockers? Thoy are more natty, and look as If tho women using them wero not half afraid. Emily Soldeno, who will be remem bered as an exponent of English blondo burlesque nnd of comic opera years ago, has been heard from again In an interview. She hns no uso for tho new woman, but wants "the old-fashioned woman, who Is sweet and gentle." The bloomer sho regards as tho most hideous garment of the day, and how a pretty woman can destroy her charms by wearing bloomors sho cannot see. Emily, It will bo recalled, did not wear much of anything, except the patience of her nudlonccs. Statistics of circulation show de creases both for tho month of June and tho year ending therewith.

Tho lessons of history teach us that the Chinese can only be brought to terms by a show of force. Their word Is lightly given and lightly broken. They promised to Investigate the mur ders at Ku Cheng, hut now the Ameri can and English consuls sent with the commission to seo to It that the Inquiry was searching have been excluded. Left to tho Chinese prefect and 'his auxiliaries, the Investigation will bo as farcical as Its predecessors. A pretense of punishing the criminals will be made nnd tho agents of tho empire at Wash ington nnd tho European capitals will be commissioned to deceive the offended countrymen of the victims. Tho course of Sir Halljday Macartney, coun cillor of tho Chinese legation at Lon don, Is proof enough that only ocular demonstration Is reliable In dealing with Chinese envoys or their Caucasian mouthpieces. The lncautlousness of the missionaries in Invading China Is not a plea In abatement. They nre Amer ican citizens, under the protection of tho flag whenovor and wherever found. American gunboats nre now cruising In Chinese waters. Tie appearance of one of them, cleared for action. In a Chinese port would do more to compel proper punishment of tho murderers and relief for the frightened Americans In Canton and other towns than an other month of Juggling with diplo matic forms. Mr. English, the author of "Ben Bolt," has recently been bo much en couraged by the renewed popularity of his old song that he 1b writing an other, entitled "Old Glory." If the Chinese Vegetarians persist in tfcelr present reckless course, ,Hon. John W. Foster may possibly get in line for another $200,000 fee. Americans are born free. New York World. Well, what has that to do with It? They go rlghe off and get mwrted M soon as they are old enough. OVER THE STATE. A nkw brick hotel Is to bo erected nt Falls City.

S. C Hiiahy of Cozad is cnguged to teach a district school two miles west of that place. Mr. Ilrudy put in his time faithfully for two weeks, but not a scholar appeared. This is not on ac count of anything ngniust the teacher, but simply because there nro no chil dren in the district who can go.

For sovernl years it hns been known that a family named Knapik, in tho Polish colony, hud an idiotic boy, and lately reports of their ill treatment of tho unfortunate one hnve been circulated.

Among the Nebraska counties which havo become interested in tho raising of alfalfa is Antelope. For several years more or less of it has been raised, principally in small patches and more as an experiment than as a practical food supply for stoclc 'l he results ot these experiments were so fnvorablo that the raising of it on a more ex tensive scalo has been entered upon. Last season was a most trying one on grasses and tho tame meadows of tho ordinary grasses either died entirely during the summer nnd winter or were so badly damaged that they wore, of very littlo use for hay purposes this season. Alfalfu, on tho contrary, sus tained very little, if any damage, and this year has been a bountiful crop. Notable as showing the possibilities of tho grass is the r-sult obtained by Huffman & Rollins on their ranch in tho Elkhoru bottoms. From land which wns seeded this spring they have al ready cut ono hay crop which averaged a ton, and tliefo is another cutting rcrfdy which will yield fully as much more. Utncrs wnose lana was secueu in previous years hnvo already cut two crops and will get a third beforo tho season is over. Acent Ordered to Clot Out. Valentine dispatch: Reports from Rosebud agency uro that Major Wright, United Stateb Indian agent, together with his white employes, has been or dered from tho reservation, tho condi tions being that they will be allowed twenty days in which to go without molestation.

On his return a few days ago Major Wright had him confined. This incited the Indians and a coun cil with the agent was demanded, look ing to his release. The council was re fused and Hollow Horn Hear, speak ing for themitleontenis, demauded that the agent quit the reservation. Nebrnnkii' Aid I Anurril. W. D.

Itistlienatur.il point of shipment for the products of Ne braska farmer and manufacturers. Practically half the distance from Ne braska to Now York Is saved, and it means more money for wheat and corn and the products of tho packing houses und the mills of the state. The peoplo of Nebraska are fully alive to tliih sub ject, and it is safe to predict that it will not be long before Nebraska pro ducts will bo taken southward instead of eastward to find a market. We con fidently look forward to a representa tion of Nebraskans and Nebraska's products at tho Inter-Ameriean exposi tion at Galveston iu 1SU7." Captured by the Conductor.

Tho Septem ber government report on the con dition of fruit says: Doth apples und peaches show slight improvement, drought has caused dropping und tho too rapid maturity of apples, but the damage lias not been sufllcient to alter the general average for the coun try.

The government has decided to expel all foreign So chilUts from tho country, luoHoer sen Zeitung predicts the advent of a military dictatorship, NO SETBACKS EXPECTED. The Iteilurcd Kfttlmnte of Croix Do Not AITert lltmlnem. Nkw Yoiik, Sept. 10. R. G. Dun & Co's trade review says: A slight set back, which may mean much or noth ing, according to the final outcome of the crops, is not unexpected at this season. If tho government crop re ports wero correct the situation would not be encouraging. Hut not much confidence is placed in the reduced estimate of corn, nono nt all in the estimate of wheat, and even the most enthusiastic bulls do not think it worth while to quote the government report as to cotton. The fact Is that we nro beginning to market not far from 2,200,000,00(1 buhels of corn though about 500,000,- 000 bushels will be moved from the counties where it is grown; about 110,000,000 bushels of wheat, of which tho farmers arc very unwisoly holding back a largo proportion, nnd about 7.200,000 bales of cotton, if the latter Indications are not erroneous, as they inuybe, to add to the stocks carried over. Tho wheat crop is evidently larger than the department has estimated, though nobody knows how much larger, and is coining forward with mora encouraging rapidity, no less than 5,773.173 bushels having been re ceived at Western ports against 5,-MO,- 001 bushels for tho same week last year from a much larger crop. Tho farmers have undoubtedly been keep ing back wheat under ail agreement among themselves. It does not seem a profitable operation for them. Ex ports from tho Atlantic ports for the two weeks of September have been 2,417,872 bmhols (flour included) against 5,310,020 bushels last year. The price declined sharply, about 2 cents per bushol, with little indication of recovery. The price of corn lias alio yielded with a strong prospect of the largest crop overgrown, and at 38 cents at New York a largo proportion of tho crop will bo of littlo profit to farmers.
