Talk on Irrigation. j

the dates of the Nebraska State Irrigation -
tion convention. Wednesday , Thursday -
day and Friday , October 7 , S and 9 ,
were the dates named for the state

table garden of Eden.

in increase of land values The next

would equal any city in Nebraska in
looking after state irrigation meetings.

ers of the state are inalienable and cannot -

New Process for beet Sugar.
Fremnont dispatch : Messrs. J. W.
Sclladt and William Ieterson of this
city have applied for a patent on a new
method of manufacturing cr4ide sugar
and syrup from sugar beets. These
two gentlemen have succeeded in rnaL -
ing raw sugar which is much superior
to that first made by Mr. Peterson
about two months ago. They estimate
that from one acre of beets of average
yield sixty-five gallons of syrup can be
made. The sugar they have made , even
in its raw state , can be used for culinary -
ary purposes , and has very little vegetable -
table taste or flavor. The cost of extracting -
tracting the sugar from time beets is
only about a fourth of the cost of the
present method. Mr. Schadt is well
posted on the chemistry of sugar a maL -
fng , and feels confident that the process -
cess used by himself and Mr. Peterson
will be a grand thing for the farmers.
Enthusiastic Sugar Beet Producers.
Neligh dispatch : A large enthusiastic -
astic delegation from here will attend
the beet sugar convention , commencing /
at Fremont tomorrow. . A great deal
of interest is being manifested in the ,
subject and negotiations are in progress -
ress with several parties for the establishment -
lishment of a faetory. A disposition is
apparent among eastern capitalists to
put in factories if it can be demon-
I staated they would prove profitable and
the soil and climate suitable for the
raising of beets.

the boarding houses and bought all

CRISIS IN CUBA ,
DeCiCive Results Antleli ated on the Is-
1a , _ _ " rore lire lhd of March.
IIAYAS. , Fob. 10-The public apprehension -
hension and the gravity of the situation -
tion on this island can hardly be over-
stated. There is a coucensus of opinion -
ion that a crisis is at hand. Gen. Wcy-
ler has left Porto Rico for Ilavnna.
It is not alone the approach of the
new conmnmincler-in-chief that causes
anxiety and intensifies feeling , but
the general consciousness that the
military , political and financial strain
is too severe to last lung.
. 'rime Spanish opinion is that real war
is about to be made , and that in a
brief campaign it will be shown that
the march of the insurgents through
time island could not have haupeued if
the regular army had been actively
handled
The Cubans claim that they grow
stronger in the field' and that the
rebel forces are being strengthened
by bands from the cast that will'
balance the additional troops from
Spain. 1t tyotild be vain to assert individual -
dividual views as to the value of these
claims. One thing is certain , the concentration -
centration of the armies in the Province -
ince of Iiavana promises combats of
increasing importance and decisive results -
sults before the end of Mardi.
The excitability of the sympathizers
with the insurgents about General
Weyler is almost incredible. Ills eoam-
ing is a nightmare to the Cuban
autonomists , who anticipate relentless
perseetitton and are largely , according
to their ability , taking refuge in the
States.
SLID DOWN SIX STORIES.
McKeesport Printers 1Itvo a Narrow Escape -
cape From Death-One Dead.
Plrrsmulto , Pa. , Feb. 10.-An earlyy
morning fire at McKeesport , Pa. , resulted -
sulted in the loss of one life and the
destruction of property worth $ ' 00,000.

the Altmeyer building , and is supposed -
posed to have been caused ny defective - r
ive electric light wiring. The flames

to eat its way through the sixth
floor. The night's work had just '
ICell finished and the P1 ) er
teas about to go to press. When j
the flames were seen a rush
was made for the usual poin t of egress ,
but time stairways were impassable.
The only resources left were time windows -
dews and the rope in the elevator
shaft. All except CM. . Barton , the
foreman of the composing room , succeeded -
ceeded in sliding down the rope. Ills
escape was cut off and lie was burned
to death.
The flames spread to the adjoining
buildings before they were extin- !
' guished. Time loss to the Altmeyer )
building and the herald plant is estimated -
mated at 175,000 , and on the other
i buildings $25,000.

confined at the institution under the
name of Anna Louisa Clouse. ' 'ime
girl was sent to the school on her
parent's representation that she was
incorrigible. In time application for
the writ it is alleged that her iucor
rigibility lay in her refusal to marry
the man selected for her by her
' parents and her action in marrying
( instead one of her own choice. Considerable -
siderable interest is manifested in the
case owing to the unusual law point
involved.

STANLE'f WITH AMERICA.
The Explorer Saps Brlt1 h Public Opinion
Is Couming Round to Arbitration.
NEW YOnx , Feb. 0.-henry M. Stan-
ley. the African explore ; , now a member -
ber of the British Parliament , has
, written a letter to Major J. B. Pond
of this city , on the Venezuelan ques-
tion. In time letter Mr. Stanley says :
"I amn entirely on time side of America ,
but I must admit that I ant not surprised -
prised that time English papers backed
up Salisbury. Taught by the virulent
remarks of your journals , I had of
course devoted much time to an-
derstsud it , whereas English editors -
itors were exceedingly ill infonmmed.
Then there are two or three injn-
dicinns remarks in Olney's dispatch
whielm puts British backs up , but after
reflecting it is wonderful how many
have conic round to my opinion that
whatever the transgressions of Olney ,
there is a great deal of justice in the
Ameriean'demand. I feel quite sure
now that it will not be long before
the opinion becomes general that we
were iii the wrong in refusing arbitration -
tion , while the more I think of Olney's
dispatch the more impressed I am that
Olney could scarcely have written
otherwise than he did. "

MOITIS Preslaner of No. 1 Pltt Street , . ' l
New York , vyho is a real estate agent
and collector of rents , caught a severe-
cold early last spring , which settled
upon Iris kidneys. Soon he began to'
suffer severe pain fn his backbone.Sides (
and chest. Ills symptoms grew rnpilfy
more alarming , until at last he wns'aat -
helpless as a child , and could scarcely
move as he lay on his bed.
Though a native of Berlin , Mr. Pres-
laner Ilmis lived In this coutttr Y for forty
years having served the country or his
adoption by three years' hard setyicc h , +
In the civil war. lie enlisted with the ' I
Nineteenth Illluuls Infantry , taking {

General Sherman to the sea. He is now
a member of JColtes Post , G. A. It. , and
is uric of the most popular men in the-
Post.
Mr. Preslaner told a reporter the storyr
of his dreadful Illness and Wonderful
recovery , The reporter met him as lie
vas returning front a long Walh , anti ,
saying that he had heard of his wonderful -
derful cure , asked him to tell th' stor3' . .
Ills words were as follows : "To begin
with. I was taken sick just a year and a
month ago , having taken a severe cold'
which settled on my kidneys. At iini t
I thought the pain that r had suffered
would soon Pass away , but. instead of r
cluing this , it grew more lnterst'recry
day , so that in a week [ could wall : only
with considerable difficulty.
"I called in a doctor , who said 1 Lad'
; ocuntotor ataxia. anti began treating
me for that (115 use. lie did me rm tX wti ,
and all sumnnmr-r long I could scarcely
attend to my business at : tli. Then t
called another doctor and took his medicine -
cine for several weeks , but exiierienced
no relief. Dr. Truman Nichols , of No.
287 East ilroad vayw ] lomn I at lust edled'
in , helped me mnole than any of time
other doctors , but along toward : fall I'
grew worse despite hi , treatment.
"Early hr Novemlmer the little. ,
strength I had rm my legs left mmm and
I was unable to stand. The pain in miry
f
back and sides became almost uubcar-
able , and my limbs grew cold. An )
electric battery I bought failed to Lelp
me , and for weeks I felt myself grade- t
ally growing weaker until nil huge left. ) t
"Sonic thine before this I had rein of

of the mn'm1 al worthless haract.'r that
I could not make up my mind to try

last , with my wife's earnest cntr' aty , I. } ,
consented to try the ] 'f'It rills.
"I am now convinced that tlm' m.v pills
saved my life. Gradually my St r"ngth
began to return , the desire to live gtew a
stronger within me After having taken

early in 3iarclm. All pain had left me ,
and that terrible dead feeling in any
