MmFAGTION GUARANTEED ,
A TEN days' tour'over that portion o
Nebraska visited by the B. & M. loco
motives has penmaded the writer tha
he has hilhcrto possessed vague notion
of the progress and prosperity of th
state. The commonwealth is assuminj
imperial proportions , and the predic
tions of the most sanguine pioneer o
twenty to thirty years ago , fall far shor
of prophecy.
The most striking features of the out
look this year is the uniformity of the
appearance of the growing crops. Thfe
corn fields of the Nernaha are reproduc
cd on the Blues and on the Republican
and the corn fields of the divides and up
lands are fac similes of those of the
river bottoms and low-lands , and fron
the Missouri river to the Colorado line
wherever corn has been planted , the
only observable difference between one
field and another is manifestly due to a
difference in the amount of culture be
stowed , and not to soil or altitude.
If nothing untoward happens there
can be no doubt that the aggregate bar
vest of the coming fall in Nebraskadi
vided by the area planted , will surpass
anything in the annals of the Uuitec
States and secure a permanent place for
this state in the very front of the agri
cultural sections of the union.
The magnificence of the grain fieldi
in this state is not marred by the ap
pearance of the towns. There js not to
be found anywhere on the face of the
earth a collection of towns , villages am
incipient cities of the same age , that
show the good taste , neatness , ane
marks of thrift and enterprise that are
everywhere seen in these new Nebrask
towns. The business houses , larger
residences and frame cottages of Me
Cook , Tndianola , Alma , Republican
City and Bloomington and Red Olouc
in the Republican Valley , with their
shaded and shaven lawns of blue grass
and clover , their neat fences and side
walks , their brick school houses , churches
and court houses , are not , only worthy
of New England but surpass the patten
in the freshness of their paint and the
beauty of their modern designs. Noth
ing approaching the completeness of the
towns of western Nebraska can be fount
in any other frontier state through whiol
we have travelled.
Nebraska is a marvel , not only to the
stranger within her gates but to the
older pioneers of the eastern tier oi
counties. The people that are now pour
ing into her borders and occupying tin ,
prairie , come for homes. They arc rap
idly making her the most home-like state
in all the west. State Journal.
Siu MOSES MONTEFIOUE has at last
succumbed to the common fate of mor
tality. A Hebrew of the Hebrews in the
tenacity with which he clung to traditions
and customs covered with tangled ivy.
he won the respect and good will of all
nations by the purity of his life and his
immeasurable sympathy for destitution
and suffering. The poor of every race
who "have only the heavens for a cover
ing and the earth for a couch , " will miss
a generous benefactor. When his friends
died he said , "It is a dagger thrust in
to me , " and the Israelites of Palestine
use the same expression when speaking
of their loss. He lived long , but could
not outlive his usefulness. He travel
led the earth over before railroads were
dreamed of ; he has seen dynasties fall
and kings and queens flying for their
lives ; he has looked into the face of
famine and pestilence ; he has been
hunted by wolves and has done what he
could to succor his people when hunted
sy the Czar. And now , after life's
itful fever , Sir Moses has "joined the
majority. " New York Herald.
A NEW use has been found for the gui
tar. The Spanish troops occupying the
cholera stricken city of Saragosa have
jeen supplied with these instruments to
enable them to keep up their spirits.
Ihe soldiers are trying the effects of
guitar music as an antidote for cholera ,
and for fear the disease might catch
them napping they keep up the alleged
music day and night. It is reported that
the inhabitants have fled the city , but
whether in dread of the cholera or to get
away from the music is not stated. Be
tween the two terrible inflictions the
vorld at large will not be surprised that
everybody wanted to run away. There
will be some curiosity to learn whether
there are any soldiers who survive the
louble danger. Those that do need not
> e afraid of the trifling danger arising
from Gatling guns and exploding shells.
Is your life worth 25 cents ? That is

jolic , Cholera and Diarhcea Remedy ,

GOLD can buy nearly everything in
this world except that which a man
wants most , viz : happiness.
THE owners of horses who wish to
keep flies from tormenting them , can do
so by rubbing with a solution made by
steeping a pound of walnut leaves in a
quart of water ; after standing a few
minutes strain and bottle for use.
THE recent exposures of the Pall Mall
Gazette have had their desired effect
upon the house of commons which by
an immense majority passed the law for
the protection of female children. Now
if the Gazette will sec that the law is
enforced and that London's aristocratic
lechers are brought to justice , it will re
ceive the plaudits of the whole civilized
world.
IRELAND'S population is steadily am
rapidly decreasing , owing principally tc
the large migration of its people t (
America. And yet there are few mor
patriotic peoples than the Irish. Thesi
facts taken in conjunction show tha
most if not all the ills of Ireland an
real and not imaginary , and that th
complaints made against the rapacity
and injustice of England arc well found
cd. Will the English people never re
alizc that they are the. greatest losers
by their course toward the Irish ?
MORE than five hundred thousand
cases of bowel complaint have been cur
