OFFICIAL COUNTY PAPER.
Late War Rumors.
There is still no news from
Commodore Dewey of ft definite
character. It is thought he is in
control of Manila , the chief city
of the Phillipine islands. Admir
al Sampson's fleet has gone to sea ,
leaving the mosquito fleet to main
tain the blockade of Havana , but
the .destination of the same is un
known. Ptioting is reported from
all over-Spain and the end of the
dynasty seems to be quite proba
ble ; martial law has been declared
in Madrid and other cities of Spain.
Instructions indicate an early in
vasion of Cuba by the Arneritfan
forces , which are now being mobi
lized at Tampa , Florida. Wheat
has taken a jump unprecedented
since the days of "Old Hutch. "
The nominal price for No. 2 red
I
wheat is $1.47 cash on the New
: \ York market. It is thought Jthat
Admiral Sampson's fleet is bound
for Porto Rico. The first and second
end regiments of Nebraska troops
will be presented with handsome
colors by the G. A. E. posts of
Lincoln , tomorrow , which will be
a gala day in the state capital.
There is some concern felt for the
torpeda boat Erricsou , which has
been missing since Saturday's gale.
Collier's Weekly.
Begin ninK with the present week Col
lier's its the
Weekly changes make-up to
extent of reserving a special and separate
section of eight pages for its latest pict
ures and descriptive articles from th
Army and Navy. This section is entitled
"From Front " and the
the , current num
ber has for frontispiece a spirited draw
ing , by an artist who has spent much
time In Cuba , of a dash of mounted in
surgents. There is a page of character
sketches made by Fred Morgan , in the
Senate , while the debate on intervention
was in progress ; a page b3T Klepper , of
the start of the Third U. SCavalry for
%
the front ; a picture of the "Solace , " the
first special hospital steamer of any navy
to take the sea ; a picture of target prac
tice at Key West by the first-class moni
tor "Puritan" ; a group of sketches , by
Nadeeny , illustrating New York's excite
ment over war news ; a large picture of
the ocean flier St. Paul , Captain Sigs-
bee's new ship , and a full-page drawing ,
by Mr. Walter Russel , the Weekly's
managing artist ( now with Admiral
Sampson's fleet ) , of some of the Twenty-
fifth Infantry , the first line troops to
reach Key West. The main sheet of the
paper opens with a strong military page
by Thulstrup "Going to the Front"
and a striking naval engagement scene
by Sonntag covers two pages. Another
page is occupied by "The Flying Squad
ron , " and one is covered with reproduc
tions of recent photographs from Key
West.
A BACKWARD SPRING
BRINGS BLOOD DISEASES , NERVOUS
DERANGEMENTS AND CHRONIC
* CATARRH.
Never was there a greater demand for
spring medicines something to cleanse
the blood.strengthen the nerves.or regu
, late the digestion. Is there any medi
cine so good for these purposes as Pe-ru-
na ? Thousands of doctors , druggists
and tens of thousands of people of all
classes and vocations have Jong ago de
cided this question that Pe-ru-na ha
no equal in-these cases. Poor shrunken
dyspeptics be
come strong ,
vigorous and
hearty after
lew bottles of it.
People who are
blotched , pim
pled and sallow
.and sluggish
never fail to find
a course of Pe-
ru-na to clear the skin , invigorate the
system and enrich the blood. Chronic
catarrh in all phases and stages , cases
that have defied the best of treatment
for mnny years , take a few bottles of Pe-
ru-na to their entire relief. Nervousness ,
debility , weaknesses of both sexes , sleep
lessness , irritability , despondency , hypo
chondria , all these disappear when Pe-
ru-na is used according to directions.
One of the -mo'st instructivrebooks on
chronic catarrh ever furnished 'free is be
ing suiit by the Pe-ru-na Drug.Manufac-
turi'ng ' Company , Columbus , Ohio. This
book * is very instructively illustrated
with expensive drawings , and 4 will be
sent free to any address. * "AJ' ' . , % ,

CEDAR BLUFFS.
Mrs. 15. F. Jenkins is on the sick list.
Small grain over this way is looking fine.
Henry Morganste'm started for the war the
other day.
Farmers over this way are very busy putting
in crops now.
We are having several showers in this part
of the country , this spring.
Our agent's wife has just returned from
eastern Nebraska , where she has been on a
visit.
Small , sickly-looking men must be careful
in Cedar Bluffs or they may get kicked o'ut of
town , but if they are good-sized men they are
perfectly safe.
Those brave citizens of Cedar Bluffs , who
were so anxious to pass the war measure over
McKinley's head so they could go to war now
have too much business to leave since hostili
ties have been declared.
PLEASANT RIDGE.
J. W. Jones has over 100 acres planted to
corn and intends planting 100 more.
W. F. Esher has 140 acres of small grain
and expects to put in 200 acres of corn.
E. C. Goehring has a fine-looking prospect
for small grain. We do not know the number
of acres he has.
The finest winter wheat we have seen is on
W. F. Everist's place , and they have a large
crop of small grain , all of which looks well.
We do'not think many of the people in this
vicinity will rush off to war from the way they
talk. They are all willing to be home guards.
Miss Mae Thompson visited with Mrs. E.
C. Goehring , last week , and together they
paid many pleasant visits in the neighbor
hood.
E. W. Harris has 25 acres of corn planted
and will plant lee more. He has 80 acres in
winter wheat , 30 acres in spring wheat and 25
acres of barley.
The drouth crieis can now take a rest ,
We've had rain from the east and rain from
the west ; Also from the north and the south ,
And don't say another woid about drouth.
A gentleman in this vicinity has received a
telegram from Frank James , bidding him to
get ready for war. They served together in
the rebel army during the civil war. Woe
unto the Spaniards if Quantrell's brigade ar
rays itself in full force against them.

Any one observing an exaggerated smile
iurrounded by a man's features will be safe in
issuming that the same is a farmer with a
