The B. & M. yards is a very busy scene these days and the yardmen have about all they can handle. There never has been a time in the history or Hastings when the railroads have had so much business in the way of moving people and goods into Ne braska from the east. There is not a freight train arrives in the city over any road but what has from three to five cars of moveables bound for some point in prosperous Nebraska. —Nebraskan. Under the car coupler law the railroads en gaged in interstate commerce will have until January i, 1898, a period of five years, to pro vide the locomotives and cars with the saftey appliances required by the act. This is ample time and the railroads ought to be well satis fied with it, but it is to be expected that they will make a vigorous effort in the next con gress to have the law repealed or amended so as to extend the time. The popular senti ment of the country, however, is so strongly in favor of this legislation that the next congress will hardly dare to interfere with it. Brakeman Reno Wall has gone to work in the carpenter shop. Supt. Campbell went to Lincoln, Wednes day on 6, on railroad business. Snyder and Fitzpatrick are worrying through ten days with commendable grace. Miss Granger was a passenger on 6, last evening, for Hastings, on a short visit to friends.
