Mill Sauunders, the civil engineer who has been expected in Thedfordfor some weeks, arrived on the Oth from Idaho and went to work at once sur veying a line for an irrigation ditch for County Clerk Matthews and expects to have water on the land in time to save his crops. By the end of the summer the entire Middle I.oup valley in the county will be a network of ditches. Recent reports from the farming dis tricts of Gage county give a far more hopeful outlook for the wheat crop than appear a few weeks ago. The stalks are short, but the whead heads in most instances are filling out re markably well, and many fields will, from present indications, go thirty bushels to the acre. Corn looks tine. Oats are practically a failure. With a few more raius the hay crop, especially wild hay, is assured. Gus Haeler, deputy United States marshaL, arrested Joe Bittner of Hum boldt on the charge of using the mails for fraudulent purposes and took him to Omaha. Bittner advertised in free want columns of a great many papers for agents, offering a big salary, with a request to sent 25 cents to cover the expense of shipping agent’s outfit His mail has been quite numerous. One party in Minnesota telegraphed for a job. Bittner is about twenty-one years old. Considerable excitement occurred in Lincoln, caused by a dog belonging to Mr. F. \V. Heling. The animal showed signs of madness and was locked in the cellar by his owner, who then tele phoned for the police. Officer Green answered the call and finding the ani mal apparently tractible led him along with a string. Before he had gone far the beast jumped for him, fastening his jaws in his arm. After a snort struggle the officcer succeeded in dis patching him. Henry Brunse, a wealthy German farmer near Napier, was fatally stabbed by a man named Charles Hill, claiming to be a special constable from Chelsea. Holt county. Hill, who lias no papers to show his authority, having lost his warrant in the fracas, says he was dep utized to arrest one Gottlieb Krause, but Krause resisted and called for help and about thirty-five or forty Germans responded. In trying to get away, Hill says he stabbed Brunse, who was strik ing him with a heavy whip. Thieves forced their way into St. Patrick's Catholic church of McCook and stole sacred property therefrom to the value of about S50. Among the missing articles are the gold ciborium, the contents of which were scattered over the altar, the silver chalice, a cru cifix, the silver altar wine flask and some brass candlesticks. The contents of the sacristy and articles on the altar were rudely disturbed, but nothing was defaced or damaged. The out rage is generally and severely con demned. The State Pharmaceutical society of Nebraska, at its recent session held in Hastings, elected officers for the en suing year, as follows: President, HenrS Gering, l’lattsmouth: first vice president, A. V. Pease. Fairbury; sec ond vice president, E. E. Capps, Su perior; third viee president, H. A. Snow, Omaha; fourth vice president, M. H. Bates, Hazard; fifth vice president, C. B. Compton, Curtis; secretary, W. L. Heilman, Teeumseh; treasurer, Jerry Bowen, Wood River.

The state banking board and Deputy Attorney General Summers have a large amount of business on hand. Last week the supreme court issued a batch of orders in the various banking cases before it. Receiver Lamb of the Plain view State bank was ordered to pay a dividend of 100 cents on the dollar. Receiver Chapman of the Bank of Ans lev was given an order to pay a divi dend of t’O per cent Claims must be filed with the receiver of the Picker ing Banking company at Steele City by August 6, and an order was issued for the receiver of the State Bank of Franklin to sell a lot of real estate. In the 100-mile race by cowboys at Chadron out of nine horses entered, four are dead and warrants have been sworn out for the arrest of the parties owning and riding the horses. It is not known whether they will plead guilty and pay a fine or fight the mat ter. In all probability they will not plead guilty and the courts will have to say whether or not they were guilty of cruelty under the statute. The mem bers of the local humane society swear vengeance on the managers of the race and all the parties connected with it, although some of their members wit nessed the race and they either did not have the stamina to stop it, or believed that the horses were not in danger. The state supreme court has handed down an opinion that the eight hour law is unconstitutional, paying: Sec tions 1 and 3 of chapter 54 of the ses sion laws of 18‘Jl having provided, in effect, that for all classesof merchants, servants and laborers, except those en gaged in farm or domestic labor, a day’s work should not exceed eight hours, and that for working any em ploye over the prescribed time the em ployer should pay extra compensation in increasing geometrical progression for the excess over eight hours, the rate of payment for the eight hours being taken as the basis upon which to reckon such progression; held, that these provisions are unconstitutional; first, because the discrimination against farm and domestic laborers is special legislation; second, because by the act in question the constitutional right of parties to contract with reference to compensatien for services is denied. The latest weekly crop report of the Nebraska weather service says: The drouth has been partially broken by scattered local showers, and while crops in the localities visited by them have been greatly benefited, the greater portion of the state is still suffering badly for rain. Wheat, oats and ail small grain have been seriously, if not hopelessly injured. Meadows and pastures are drying up. and fruit prospect* are exceedingly p >or. Corn is generally reported as cioing fairly well. The acreage continues to he in creased by farmers plowing up poor fields of wheat and oats and replanting jo corn. POPULIST PLATFORM.

FIGHT OVER THE RESOLUTIONS. It is understood that there was a big fight at the meeting of the com mittee on resolutions over the suf frage question, but the majority final ly agreed upon the following: We, the representatives oi the People s par ty of Kanaas. in convention assembled do hereby reaffirm our allegiance to the principles enunciated in the Omaha platform and point to the record of our representatives in Con gress as an evidence of their Joyalt.v to that platform We meet at this time under condi tions which ->ee every prophecy then made fultilled, and everv indictment which was made therein against the Republican and Democratic pirties proven Our sympathies go out to the unemployed homeless and landless peoDle of the country who have been brought to their present con dition in a great measure throu h the vicious, un-American financial policy of this govern ment and. we hold sacred the declaration of independence that all men are created equal, they are endowned by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. We most heartily commend our present state officials for their wise and oconomic ad ministration of state affairs that has saved to the taxpayers thousands of dollars, and the Populistic legislators for their efforts to enact into law every demand of the state platform ; adopted at Wiihita in 1891 We demand the tree coinage of silver at the ; ratio of hi to Land denounce any party that ! is so completely under the control of the gold bugs that it dare not take a stand for the peo ple on this all-important question, which means so much to the wage earners and pro ducers of our country The comptroller's report for 1833 shows that during the year 158 national banks suspended, leavin : tinancial ruin in their wake, we again reiterate our condemnation of this, the so called best banking system the world has ever known, and demand in its stead banks of deposit under the control of the depositors and the deposits guaranteed by this govern ment. That we are unalterably opposed to issues of government interest-tear.n bonds, and de mand instead the issue of full legal tender treasury notes and the payment of the same, together with silver money, to meet the needs of the government. We condemn the unwise and cruel policy of all the tovermnent parties in r hi-» nation who.-e lc -islation has favored capital and op pressed labor, and we hereby declare our sympathy with all toilers in their efforts to imp-ove their condition, and demand such legislation as will remove some of the burdens of toil by short enening the hours of labor without lessening their daily wage * We demand national and state boards of ar bitration to settle and adjust differences be tween the employers and the employes and we further demand that where the property of a corporation has been placed in the hands of a receiver, the wages of the employes shall be a first lein on its earnings and effects and we denounce the appointment of officials or parties interested as receivers of any corpora tion. We demand service pension graduated so the man who carried the musket shall be en titled to the same consideration as the man who wore the epaulette, and said law to be so framed that it will place forever beyond the powcV of any official who is unfriendly toward the Union soldiers and sailors to change, sus pend. or in any wav deprive the soldier of his just dues which this government owes him for defending with his life our country and fia *■. We favor a state irrigation department to investigate methods and water sup plies and encour ige more extended irrigation. We dem nd a freight rate bill based on the line of the maximum freight rate bill parsed by the senate and afterward defeated by the Republican house, and quote in proof of the need < f such law the plank of the" Republican platform adopted at their state convention in 189-J. which we adopt and make a part of this demand, to-wit: “We insist that the creat transportation companies \vh eh derive their corporate exist ence lrom Kansas laws, and their financial ex istence from Kansas trade and commerce, owe to the people of Kansas fair, equitable and honest treatment in the matter of freight rates, and we are opposed to the inequitable and oppressive discrimination in the adjust ment of such rates by said companies whereby the merchants.shippers and consumers of other states are enricho 1 at the expense and to the injury of the people of Kansas, and we demand of the next legislature the utmost diligence in enacting appropriate legislation providing therefor to the end that agricul tural mercantile and other inrerests of Kan sas shall be placed on a footing of equalit v, so far as freight rates are concerned, with the like interests in adjoining states believing al power is vested in t'ne people and that all laws of vital importance should be initiated ana approved or disapproved by them There fore we endorse the initiative and referendum system.” THE MINORITY REPORT. The minority report signed by eight members is as follows: We. the undersigned mambers of your com mittee on resolutions respectfullv submit the following minority report to be added to the majority report and recommend its full adop tion: Whereas.

Judge Thomas > s Poivn the Law to the Train Stealers. Leavenworth . lvas.. J nn e 14. —Judge Thomas of the United States district court found Captain John A. Ralston, Color Sergeant Frank E. Woods and Commissary Ed Hart, leaders of the baud of C'oxeyites who.siezed a Union Pacific train at Watkins, Col., and were captured at Ellis, Kan., guilty of contempt in that they interfered with a road in the hands of receivers. Judge Thomas held that the actions of these coinmonwealers in boarding a Union Pacific train in large num bers over the objections of the train men and in insisting upon riding on the train after being ordered off was equivalent to actual force and con stituted an interference with the op eration of trains in the hands of the receivers which could not be tol erated and that these acts amounted to a contempt of court. Sentences will be announced hereafter. THE BLACK PLAGUE’S HAVOC. Two of China's Greatest Cities Ravaged by the Scourge. Vancotver, British Columbia.

Freedom After Twenty Tears of Confine* meat. Kansas Citv, Mo.,June 11.— For the first time in twenty years Arthur Winner of Kansas City and Joseph W. McNutt will at sunrise to-morrow morning be free men. They went into the Kansas penitentiary as boys twenty years ago to-morrow, sen tenced to bo hanged, and they will leave it to-morrow men well along in middle life. They will leave behind them only one man who was there be fore the penitentiary gate closed be hind them. The Winner and McNutt case is probably the most famous in the crim inal history of Kansas. Early in 1873 Winner and young McNutt went to Wichita, Kan., and started a paint siiop. Winner was 19 years old and McNutt was 29. Soon afterward Mc Nutt insured his life in favor of Winner for S?r>,000. One night a few months after the young men settled in Wichita some one dis covered that their shop was on fire. The people of the town turned out and extinguished the fire, but McNutt was missing. The partly burned body of a man was found in the ruins of the building. Winner de clared that it was McNutt, but the people of Wichita did not believe him. The body was recognized as that of a tramp known as “Texas.” The sudden departure of McNutt and tlie fact that his life insurance was in favor of Winner, though McNutt was married and father of a child, excited so much suspicion that Winner was arrested the next day. A few weeks later McNutt was captured in the woods in Newton county. Mo. They were tried for murder. The evidence was so convincing that they were con victed, and sentenced by Judge W. 1’. Campbell, now department com mander of Kansas, to be hanged, under the law they went to the peni entiary for life. A letter written by McNutt’s wife, then living in Kansas City, played an important part in the trial. .She had been informed of the plot by her hus band and on the morning after the murder a letter was found from her imploring him not to commit the crime. In that letter were these words which led to the conviction of her husband and his accomplice: “if you carry that on we will all be ruined. Before I will have the name of murdering and stealing for wealth, ! I will beg on my hands and knees.” She said she had only one dime left in j the world and site sent it as a Christ mas present to het husband with her ! blessing. The young men began to serve their | sentence June 10, 1874, just twenty j years ago. McNutt’s wife secured a divorce and a few years later was married again. She is living in Clay j county, Missouri, and lias a family of growing children. OKLAHOMA’S MONSTROSITY. A Girl Babjr Makes Its Advent in Jones* ville With Two Heads. South Enid, Ok.,June 11.—Mrs. Mc Man, wife of a justice of the peace in the first addition north, called Jones ville, gave birth yesterday afternoon to a srirl baby which had two heads.
