If Mr. Cleveland talks during the campaign will ho nrgo the people to re turn to the good old domocratio times of MW-'IW ? Those sea shore resortB mo having no attraction to the people of a largo portion tion of the middle west this summer. .They have all the sensation of having the sea at homo. People who can remember book to how anxiously they vratched the olonds last July and August should compare it to the anxiety with which they have boon watching the olonds this July. Lincoln firemen were compelled to Wade waist-deep in water to put out a 'firo the other day. The elements have "boon furnishing BOIUO very peculiar conditions and situations during the summer. Missouri democrats were forced to re main in session all night before they would consent fb endorse the Kansas Oity platform. What Is to bo expected from other states when the faithful of Missouri show suoh hesitancy ? "Ex-President Cleveland has consented to deliver a half-dozou political speeches Vlnriug the campaign in Now York this Jail. It is probable that if Mr. Bryan Should go there during the campaign ho will find that it is the enemy country indeed. . Great Britiau gives evidence that she 'is more afraid of one American J.

The former threatens her rule * of the seas , the latter only killed a few thousand men and cost that country , a ,1 ' ow millions of dollars in war expenses , ' A Sioux City man wna driven insane fand ont his throat because of the noise .made by the explosion of fire-crackers vbn the Fourth.

" Herman , this state , appears to bo the especial victim of the elements. But a few years ago the town was laid low by a disastrous cyclone and this summer it has been the victim of a cloud burst and Hood , which floated several houses from their foundations and carried one dwell- 4ng so far that rescuers were compelled to swim to it to give relief to its occu pants. The prohibitionists of Lincoln should , be gratified that an abundance of water Las.been thrust upon that wicked and unwilling town at last. They made an unsuccessful fight thig spring , but nature asserted the supremacy of water in a manner most effective , though scarcely argumentative. Many of the worst sufferers from the overdose of water will lean the more strongly to the % vine cup. Some of the people of Nebraska Oity , have been kicking because the water company has been furnishing them with water diluted with mud and the company comes back with the statement that during the month of June 200,000 ) gallons of mud , or 30 car loads , had been washed out of the water furnished the people of that place. The 'people ' there , must bo mighty particular about what itd they drink. Suppose the company bed allowed that 110 carloads of mud to remain in the water ? The Sixth district fnslonUts had n Borloufl tltuo fusing , The demo crats named and insisted upon M. F , Harrington as the man and the pop- wllHt as persistently maintained that ho was not the logical candidate. The two parties with but a single thought ( bfllco ) find it a mighty serious proposition to have the two-hoartB-that-boat-as-ono feeling , that IH so essential to patls- factory fusion , Mr. Bryan should have an eye on Senator Vest or the roorganhors will get him , Ho has given it as his opinion that a man may bo a good democrat and yet not endorse the Kansas City plat form that declares for free silver. While ho is a biuiotalllst ho considers that Mr Bryan is not justified in OB tracking and declaring as traitors men who fail to endorse the 10-to-l plank of the domo'cratio coda of beliefs. Four fatalities and eleven prostrations wore ciinpod by i\ hot wave at Pittshurg 'Thursday. ' Hero ilgain Nebraska olimata averts its superiority over all others. Nebraska was delightfully cool and pleasant yesterday while good warm covers at night were not un comfortable. For all around weather Nebraska commends itself to No- brnskaim. A little more hot would not bo objectionable to the corn perhaps , but humanity has no complaints to offer. ONE COWSKIN. An Innncc of Gcmmu Military Thrift nml Hed Tiipclnm. An Instance of military thrift nml of n red tnno system which Is not pedullar to Germany comes from the Prussian war ofllco. In 1800 Uio guards -were breakfasting hurriedly. They * had on the previous day fought the bnttld of Boor and had accomplished altogether a nlno days' march. This was not the era of 'canned meats , and to each regi ment bad been allotted a certain nain bcr of cattle which bad been killed , efclnned and cooked , but while1 th < * men were still eating scouts came In with tbo news that the AuBtrlans were near at band. The men got Into marching'order and In a few minutes were In rapid ad vance toward tbo enemy. The Grcna dler" guards , conspicuous always for tholr dispatch , hurried to such purpose that they failed to secure tbo skin of a cow which had been made over to thorn for rations. When tbo ofllclnl who was responsi ble ( or the value of tbo hide came to ask for it , it bad to bo reported mlso- ing. Inquiries wore set on foot , ovl dcnco was collected , and a voluminous correspondence lasting fourteen or fif teen months failed to account for the skin. There had been a cow. She bad beer made over to the guards. She had a hide. The hldo was government prop crty , representing a sum llxed by otll- clal tariff. The government must bo credited with that sum. The hide was not forthcoming. AVho should bo re sponslblu for Its cnsh value ? It wns at Insf decided that the colonel of the regiment shoukl be held account ale ) , ni\d \ a year'ami a half after the conclusion of the seven weeks' wnr ho wns requested by the wnr ofllco to : remit the sum of 3 thnlcrs , the price of one cowskin lost by the Grenadier guards. When' tlie sifni was pnld , the subject was at last : ofllcially dropped. COSTLV ACCIDENTS. A boat Tin Mine" ana a Lead Ulne'n Botto'mleiB Pit. Immense plans which seemed aboui to bo completed , but have been brought to disastrous failure nt the last mo ment arc , frequent enough in the his- "tory'of industry , 't . Txradon 'Answers tells 'th'c story of a Un rnlnoln England which might have yielded a fortune but for a storm. 'WJth'tbo flndltog of a'new'veln , of ore unnlnJjip'ut'4t9wJird ' the en a new leve was driven out below the water ; then It was found that the lode bent up ward too 'near the sea. bottom for min ing to bo eafely carried on. Undlsconr [ aged , tbo owner borrowed money , bull a sea wall to cut off the water , erected pumps and again went to work. On the sixth day just as an enor mous mass of rich ore was being tap ped a gale came up , u ship was blown upon tbo wall , which went to pieces a once , and the sea drove tbo heavy stones In upon the thin roof of the mine. In a moment the workings wcro hopelessly flooded , and the owner was a ruined man. A story equally trnglc is told of the Speedwell lend mine in Derbyshire ' Believing that n rich vein of ore exist cd in a nearby hill , the owner rlske < bis entire capital to bore n tunnel 3XK ( feet long into the heart of the moun tain. Suddenly the miners brok through n wall of rock into a vast hid den cavern , through which flowed n stream of water. They began to dump rock into th < stream , nnd after 10,000 tons n brldg began to rise out of the darkness , nnd then their farther progress was stop ped. Month after month they tolled and at last , after -10,000 tons in nl bad been cast into tbo cavern , thoj gave it up. That narrow rift is known to thl day as the Bottomless Pit Fortlflcntlons In the strict sense o the word nro becoming antiquated and their value In modern warfare Is extremely doubtful.

'Tho slzo of the crowds has been unprecedented nnd the number and quality of the attractions offered has never in the history of the asso < i elation hcen equalled. A score or I inoro of speakers have been heard at ho general sessions and the depar'- ' mont meetings who have attained a eputatlon which is national and in oiuo Instances even world-wide. Twenty thousand visitors from all of the country have spent the week In the city , either as delegates o the convention or as mere visitors availing themselves of the low rail mul rates to see the great bread nnd butter state. Many of these will re main In the vicinity for some tlmo n order to visit all the points of In crest In the neighborhood of the Twin Cities , and numerous small ex curslons have been planned for their enjoyment and education.
