C. E. MAGNER , Agent.
Some time ago Mr. Charles S. Fee , the
general passenger agent of the Northern
Pacific , advertised for competitive styles
of railroad advertising in the first.class
magazines of the country. These specimen -
men ads. were to be either full page or
half page. In response to his liberal offers
fers of prizes several thousand railroad
men and other enterprising competitors
sent in their ideas of the best form of
railroad advertising in the magazines.
The Journal takes pleasure in announcing -
ing that a well-known Lincoln man , A.
C. Zeimer , ticket agent of the Burlington -
ton , drew the first prize in the great
competition.-Lincoln Journal.

itor of the B. & M , railroad in Nebraska ,

posed to give Mr. Manderson two rooms
on the east of the building , en suite ,
with the offices of the general manager ,
moving the telegraph and claim account
offices farther to the north. Until these
changes are made Mr. Manderson will
continue to occupy his former office over
the Omaha Savings bank. Under the
terms of his contract with the Burlington -
ton Mr. Manderson will d&te his whole
time to the law business of tie' Burlington -
ton , and will be assisted whenever necessary -
essary , by C. J. Greene , who has been
connected with the B. & .M. for some
1 years in a legal capacity.-Bee.
FREAKS OF NATURE.
$ ome Curious Things That Amnne and A. .
tonish Men of Science.
Nature's freaks of fancy afford a
atrango study. People are constantly
sending to the National museum supposed -
posed fossil animals and other oddities
which are in reality mere accidental
forms carved by water. A pebble in a
stream gathers about itself grains of
sand until an odd shaped lump is
made. A favorite shape for such lumps
is that of a turtle with four legs , a head
and tail , even the lines of the shell being -
ing sometimes distinct. Similar concretions -
tions of carbonate of iron and clay assume -
sume the appearance of petrified pea-
nuts. Break one , and you will always
find aside a small spiral winkle shell ,
which has served as the nucleus. A
queer counterfeit of this kind , forwarded -
ed to Washington not long ago , was an
alleged fossil foot of a child , with a little -
tle stocking on , the latter showing signs
of wear on the ball of the foot and on
the heel. It was only a concretion , as
was likewise what appeared to be a pet-
rifled oyster on the shell.
One eminent scientist has been amusing -
ing himself of late by making imitation
spider webs out of quartz fibers. It is
well known that copper wire aan be
drawn to a fineness much less than the
thickness of a hair-in fact , to the diameter -
ameter of the one-thousandth pat t of an
inch. But glass may be spun finer than
copper , while even the finest spun glass
is not so flue as silk fiber. The latter ,
however , is coarse compared with the
threads that can be obtained by inciting
quartz under a blowpipe and pulling it
out. Such threads may be reduced to a
thinness of one-millionth of an inch.
Drawn to such tenuity , they art ; invisible -
ble under a microscope of the 1).ga st
power. Yet they arc stronger in proportion
tion to their thickness than the best
quality of bar steel. Enough thread like
this could bo made from a single cubic
inch of quartz to go around the world
658 times. A SI'aill 0f sand bagely large
l enough to be visible to the naked eye
would yield 1,000 miles of thread.
Obviously 110 practical nsa can be
made of threads so extremely fine.
Comparatively coarse ones were woven
into cobwebs by the scientist aforesaid.
They would not catch flies because tlo ,
were too slippery , having no gluten on
them , like real cobwebs. This difficulty
was got over by moistening a straw in
castor oil and gently stroking the threads
with it ; then the webs captured flies
fairly well. But a cobweb is incomplete
without a sPider , so it occurred to the
I experimenter to attract aui araclmid to
his web by the buzzing of a fly. It was
difficult to make a fly buzz to order , but
a satisfactory imitation was prochiced
by permitting a tuning fork to vibrato
i against the quartz fibers. This fetched
the spider right away. The scientist also
amused himself with blowing bubbles
of quartz , which looked exactly like
I the most beautiful soap bubbles. - .

Sponge Fishing.
The Greeks are considered the prin
cipal sponge fishers , and it takes much
experience , skill and hardihood to quail-
fy a man for a first chess place among
sponge divers. Many of the most valuable -
able specimens are found at a depth
varying from 10 to 35 fathoms. To aid
in the descent , the divers make use of a
triangular stone , with a hole in one cot
ner , through which a rope is spliced.
On reaching the deep sea gardens , where
the rock ledges are clothed with marine
growths , the diver , retaining a hold on
his rope , dexterously breaks away th9
holdfast of the sponges and places them
under his arm until asufficient load has
been gleaned , when a pull on the rope
signals his cempanirns above that 1)e is
ready to ascend , and lie is then hauled
to the surface , bearing his ocean treas-
ures.-Exchange.
Manuscript of "The School For Scandal ?
No printed version of "The School
For Scandal" was prepared for publication -
tion by Sheridan. He always alleged
that he could not supply one with which
he was perfectly satisfied Yet ho made
the attempt , and Mr. Fraser r. , , s
discovered the copy containing his final
corrections of passages in many scenes ,
which Moore must have overlooked , the
documents at his disposal having recent
1y been put into Mr. Fraser Rae's hands
by Sheridan's descendants for the purpose -
pose of writing a complete biography of
the great dramatist and orator. The
manuscript is imperfect , yet enough is
extant to show how effectually Sheridan
could add a fresh charm to his polished
phrases.-London Athenamm.
Itulers of Horses and Men.
It is instructive to compare the visage -
age of the ruler of horses with that of
the ruler of men. The horseman's face
shows command in the mouth ; the drill
sergeant's in the month and the eye
The last is undoubtedly the most effective -
ive instrument in exacting obedience
front our own species. here we t to a
hint of the cause of that want , . ; ' -
city , that element of coarseness , which
is discernable in the countouances of
some men and women who have much
to do with horses. The higher and no-
bier method of expressing authority it
outweighed by the lower and more animal -
mal one.-Blackwood's Magazine.
Are Men Getting More Vain ?
A local philosopher , who stakes a
practice of observing other people's
manners and commenting upon their
habits , states that nearly every man now
carries a pocket mirror. According to
him , this habit has grown immensely
of late , and nearly every man can be
observed at frequent intervals pulling a
glass out of his pocket and looking at
the set of his necktie or the appearance
of his whiskers.-Philadelphia Call.
