We learn from the Beaver City payers
that P. C. Durfee , a former express messenger -
senger well known to many of our citizens -
zens , is again treading the thorny path
of adversity. It appears that he has

without the sanction of the government

meaner to the next term of the district

before the federal jury at Omaha , some

leaving upon the arrival of No. 142 and

equitable arrangement.

GREEN AN EMBLEM O1 AMBITION.
A story is told about President Chaun-
cey M. Depew of the New Vork Central
railroad , that is considered as conclusive
evidence of his ambition to become
president of the Cnited States. It is the
outcome of a recent tour of inspection of
the Vanderbilt lines. Mr. Depew's private -
vate car is well known along a the line of
Vanderbilt roads. It has no name but
is designated as "No. IOo , Official" . The
men along the road , however , call it
"Old Hundred" .
Red instead of green flags have heretofore -
fore been used on the rear of this car for
"markers" . This trip the red flags gave
way to the conventional green ones , and
as the train pulled out , a son of Erin.
who noticed the change in the color of
the lags , said to a companioil : "Doyez
moind thot , Moike ? The presidint is out
in polytics , shure. He do be making a
bid for the Oirish vote wid them flags" .
