the use of anti-oxin in the treatment of

.ludgo Sodgwiok carried his town by a

right thing by both candidates for supreme -
promo judge and their homo vote was
n handsome compliment to each. Other
towns might learn a valuable lesson in
iioighborliuoss by studying the retunih
from Fremont and York.
Chairman Lindsay's guess of f > ,000 or
0 000 was good and more than good.
His forecast was evidently based on a
comprehensive knowledge of the situa
tion , but what of the fusion chairmen's
prophecy thut | IIollonbock would bo
elected by 10,000 or 12,000 ? Perhaps
they made a mistake in the name and
meant Sedgwick. If so their guets was

lie was acquainted with America and
Americans and therefore was the best

life's work may bo an example to his
fellow countrymen that will never bo

The strongest argument used against
Dietrick last year was that ho entered
naloouB and took a glass of beer occasion
ally and yet the liquor dealers associa
tion hadn't a good word to say for him.
It may therefore bo readily believed that
the association officers never support
nnyouo but a fusiouist and especially if
n clean and moral republican is arrayed
agaiubt him. It is probable that Diet
rich met with no stronger opposition
than this same association.
There wore evidently a lot of fusion-
istfl in the state who have had their de
sire to vote fused out. They have
learned that the bugaboos of their
leaders were stuffed with straw
and harmless and if they couldn't sup
port the republican candidates they nt
least wouldn't exert themseves to op
pose them , and concluded to remain at
homo and husk corn. Nebraska farmers
are not as simple as the fusion leaders
would endeavor to have the world be
lieve.
But two persons have died in Havana

Shot nn Eagle.
An American eagle was shot on John
Stntts' farm , nine miles northwest of
the olty , Tuesday by the young brothers
of Mr. Stutts.
A little girl ran onto the eagle in the
house yard and thinking it was a turkey
started to drive it off but it rattled up
its feat tiers and tlitppod its wings nud
started towards the little girl , who becoming -
coming frightened , ran to the house.
When the boys returned from school
they were told of the savage turkey and
upon seeing it were convinced that it
was not a Thanksgiving bird and went
back to the house for a shot gun. Ono
of the boys took n shot at it but only
slightly wounded it so that it rose in
the air aud started to lly off' . The other
boy then took n shot aud brought down
the bird that proved to bo n fine , speci
men of the American eaglo.
It weighed eight pounds and measured
eighty inches from wing tip towing tip.
It was brought to town yesterday and
sent to the taxidermist at Norfolk to bs
mounted.
It is said that this bird has been play
ing havoc with fowls and small stock.
The young man who brought it to town
reports that it had carried off a lamb.

The designs of eastern rugs arc often
the spontaneous outcome of the fancy
of the weaver. Sometimes they are
handed down from one generation to
another. In some cases young girls arc
taught the design by un adult , who
miirkH It lu the Hand. At other times a
drawing of the rug Is made on paper ,
the Instructor showing her pupils the
arrangement of every thread and the
color to bo used. When all this has
been done , the pupils must make the
rug without looking nt the drawing.
Persian 'rugs excel tlioso of other
countrli-H In urttstle design as well as
In lumnonloiiH coloring. The Persians
Becin to have a natural Intuition In the
use and blending of different shades ,
and In the designs that contain these
certain colors they achieve the happiest
ivstilts. It In really wonderful what
I'xqulsltc fabrics these people , born
and reared In Ignorance nnd poverty ,
produce.
TJie deslinis In Persian nigs are gen
erally lloral , and In home districts , es
pecially 1'iirs , the women w.eavers In
vent the di'M nn , varying them every
two or three years. The Mohammedan
religion does not allow any direct rep
resentation of animal forms , consequently
quently rugs woven under Its Inlluencu
take lloral , geometrle and vegetable
forms. The .Sliluh sect or Moslems ,
however , numbering about ir > .000,000 ,
of whom 8.000,000 are Persians , do not
regard representations of animals na
unlawful. Hy tlu > Industry of this sect
and that of Inlldels and of all who ills-
regard the law of the Koran animal
forms are seen ou some Persian rugs.
The prayer rug was evidently Invent
ed for the purpose of providing the
worshipers with one absolutely clean
place ou which to offer prayers. It Is
not lawful for a Moslem to pray on any
place not perfectly clean , nnd unless
each one tins his own special rug he Is
not certain that the spot has not been
polluted. With regard to the purity of
the place of prayer Mohammedans are
specially careful when making their
pilgrimages , the rugs which they tnke
with them having been preserved from
pollution by being rolled up until the
journey is begun or until the hour for
prayer arrives. It docs not matter to
these followers of Mohammed how
unclean a rug that is on the floor may
be , because over It they place the pray
er rug when their devotions begin.
The Turkish rugs made nt Slvns are
always woven of wool , and almost ev
ery hamlet carries on the Industry of
weaving In the homes. There are no
factories , the young girls and women
doing the work here as In other parts
o Turkey. Slvns rugs are In most
cases small , measuring about eight by
four feet , but In these years larger and
more attractive rugs are being mnde.
Kven the poorest fnmlllcs have line
russ , for they regard them vns valuable
property , to be sold only under the
pressure of great extremity. The weav
ers are so frugal In their manner of
living that their dally earning of 13 to
10 cents Is sutliclont to supply their
wnuts. Their food consists usually of
rice and crushed wheat , with occasion
ally n small piece of mutton.
Smyrna Is only a mart for the snle
of comparatively Inferior niRs that are
mmle In the Interior from the Coarse
hair of the Angora goat. These are
woven In Irregular designs and , al
though not artistic , are largely sought
n < coverings for the bare floors aud to
add warmth. The weaving of these
rugs Is crudely done by girls and wo
men. Sometimes the loom Is primitive
ly constructed from the trunks of trees.
The designs are very simple nnd have
cither been handed down from earlier
generations or arc supplied from the
city.
city.Yuruk
Yuruk rugs are so called from a band
of nomads who dwell among the moun
tains of Anatolia. They have large
Hocks of fine sheep nnd weave rugs of
firn. even texture. The colors are very
good , the field often of dark brown , or
namented with large designs.
About 200 years ago small embroider
ed rugs were largely made In Persia ,
chiefly at Ispahan. These were prayer
rups , and on ench of them , nenr one
end. wns n small embroidered mark to
show where the bit of sacred earth
from Mecca was to be placed. In obe
dience to n law of the Kornn Hint the
hend must be bowed to the ground In
prayer this was touched by the fore
head when the presentation was made ,
and so the letter of the law was carried
out. The custom prevails. The Persian
women who weave the finest prayer
rugs seldom weave any other kind of
rug. "Hugs , Oriental and Occidental. "
Don't De Afralil ut Work.
One thing tL'at keeps young men
down IH their fenr of work. They aim
to find genteel occupations , HO they
can dress well , not soil their clothes
and handle things with the tips of
their lingers. They do not like to
get their shoulders under the wheel ,
and they prefer to give orders to oth
ers or figure as musters and let some
one else do the drudgery. There Is no
doubt that Indolence and laziness are
the chief obstacles to success.
When we see a boy who has just se
cured a position . tnke hold of every
thing with both hands nnd "Jump
right Into his work" ns If he meant to
succeed , we have confidence that he
will prosper. Hut If he stands around
and asks questions when told to do
anything ; If he tells you thnt this or
that belongs to some other boy to do ,
for it Is not his work ; if he docs not
try to carry out his orders In the cor
rect wny ; If he wants n thousand ex
planations when asked to run nn er
rand and makes his employer think
that he could have done the whole
thing himself , one feels like discharging
such a boy on the spot , for ho Is con
vinced that he was not cut out tor suc
cess. That boy will be cursed with
mediocrity or will be n failure. Then-
Is no place In this century for the lazy
man. lie will be pushed to the wall.

Shoulder I'rutectlnn.
In the steel curb shoulder protection
which now forms n part of the equip
ment of almost all cavalry the troops
have a permanent reminder of one of
the most exciting adventures which be
fell Sir George Luck , the lieutenant
general commanding the Hengal forces.
During the Afghan operations of 1878
to 1880 he took bis regiment , the Fif
teenth hussars , up to Kandahar and en
countered at Takht-l-Pul n strong body
of hlllmen led by Afghan sowars , who
made things pretty warm for him for a
few minutes. In the hand to hand
lighting bo became engaged with n gi
gantic Pntbnn , who broke down his
guard and would have cloven him from
shoulder to belt but that his wife had
sewed on bis shoulders In the lining of
his tunic a couple of steel curb chains ,
one of wh'Icli broke the force of the
slash.
The Incident so impressed the mili
tary authorities In India that what Is
now known ns the Luck or "lucky"
shoulder curb was soon afterward In
troduced. Military Mall.
A CnrlooH nitrometer.
A curious barometer Is said to be
used by the remnant of the Arnucanlan
race which Inhabits the southernmost
province of Chile. It consists of the
cnstoff shell of a crab. The dead shell
Is white In fair , dry weather , but the
approach of a moist atmosphere Is Indi
cated by the appearance of small red
spots. As the moisture In the air In
creases the shell becomes entirely red
ami remains so throughout the rainy
season.
