What IVexlV
The Iat half century has been par
ticularly noted as' an era of unri
valled improvements, a time in
which the toiling aud contriving
race of men has takeu long' strides
forward in making the forces of na
ture subservient to the needs of civ
ilized man.
On every hand are seen evidences
of this spirit of progress, the mere
enumeration of which would till a
column of the Journal.
No longer do we see farm hands
by the dozen go forth to the mead
ows, and, side by side, stoop to the
work of felling the grass ; neither
the boys coming after with the
hand-rake.
Now, the team which formerly
was idle, furnishes the main motive
power through all the harvest of the
grain and hay, thus doing the former
work of men .
If we had suddenly to go back to
the ways of the days of our grand
fathers (as sometimes when the sup
ply of gas is cut off resort is had to
the caudle) wo should realizo in its
fullness, the wonderful advance that
has beon made in everything per
taining to in-door aud out-door
work. For instance, you wish to
visit a dear friend who is sick a
thousand miles away. You send a
telegram, which speaks to him im
mediately that you will take the
cars, and you reach him in three
days, and the trip is made in a com
fortable, close habitation, as it were,
scarcely any more subject to the vi
cissitudes of the weather than in your
own home. It is safe to say that
men can make ten times the speed
they did fifty years ago, while in the
communication of intelligence, from
the old-fashioned, slow-going coach,
or eveu the galloping messenger to
the winged lightning, which flashes
intelligence between continents as
men talking across a dinner-table,
there is no comparison.
Formerly, our newspapers that
gave the deaths of kings and ac
counts of the battle? of Europe three
to four weeks after the occurence,
were doing well, but now the morn
ing daily, struck off at three o'clock
which docs not epitomize the main
events, and give minute particulars
oftho startling occurrences of the
preceding day, throughout Christen
dom, lies unpurchased at the news
stalls.
Living iu the midst of growing
wonders, it were indeed a wonder,
if the active mind did not fool the
suggestions of nature, and reach out
after still further triumphs of human
knowledge, and we are perhaps on
the eve of a day of inventions at
least equaly iu effect to any that
have preceded.
A short time since was announced
the telephone, then the electric rail
way, then the storage of electricity
so that it could be transported aud
applied anywhere. Now it is
thought that power may be trans
mitted by electricity, so that, for ex
ample, the force created by the fal
ling of the waters of Niagara, or the
tides of the ocean may bo trans
mitted by electric cables to any dis
tant point.
But, probably the most tangible
and useful invention latest talked of
is the heat-magazine of M. Carriere,
whereby the heat of the sun, con
centrated, by highly polished mir
rors, upon thin plates of iridio-plati-num,
is held in reserve until ueeded.
A magazine one foot square will
store heat enough to warm com
fortably a large hall for an entire
season.
If we had such an apparatus in
general use these severely hot days,
how short a time it would take to
store enough of the extra heat to do
all the work required of it the re
mainder of the year!
President Garfield.
The President was not so well
Saturday evening.nnd many theories
were indulged in as to the cause.
It might have been produced by the
ball or by the formation of another
pus cavity, or the excessive heat may
hove caused an undue rise of tem
perature. The official report of August 7th
says the President passed another
good day.
The wound is doing well in every
respect. He has partaken of an ad
equate quantity of nourishment and
has had several naps during the day.
At 12 :30 p. m. his pulse was 98, at
7 p. m. 102.
August Sth 12 :30 a. m. The Pres
ident is resting quietly and no more
unfavorable symptoms.
So the fifth Sunday of tho Pres
ident's illness passes without any
very alarming Bymptons.
George and Dana Biglow, broth
ers, aged about 30 and 35 years,
while engaged in sinking a well at
their residence on the Big Sandy, in
Holt county, this State, and while
both were in the well which was
about twenty-eight feet deep, Thurs
day of last week, tho curbing gave
way and sand and dirt tumbled in
until the men were in sand up to
their waists. The curbing saved
thorn from being covered up aud
killed at once, and left an opening
so that they could he conversed
with. They made their wills and
bade their wives and children an
eterual farewell. Every effort was
mede to save them by digging an
other well along side and tunnelling
iuto the victims, but before they
could be reached ou Saturday, life
had become extinct, and only their
dead bodies were recovered.
Wm. O. Woodward of Marseilles
111., has recently invented a wonder
ful musical instrument. It consists
ot a piano and organ combined in
the same space as usually occupied
by an upright piano, Either instru
ment can bu played separately or
both together. The change from
one to iie other i3 effected without
a break in the music. The combined
sound of the piano and organ is pe
culiar in ellect, representing every
instrument in a full orchestra. Both
are played from the same keyboard.
Patrick W. Crowe charged with
being the inventor of the infernal
machines that were receutly shipped
to England was arrested at Peoria,
111., on tho 1st, by tho United States
Marshal on orders from Wayne
MaoVeagh, the United States attor-ney-seueral.
His arrest created the
greatest excitement. Crowe was
taken ou the night of tho 1st to
Chicago, to undergo his preliminary
examination. Subsequent reports
say Crowe was not arrested. It was
a big joke played ou the reporters.
An InimeiiKe .Suit!
The County Commissioners of
Antelope county, Nebraska, are
about to institute suit against the
Chicago, Burlington & Quiucy rail
way company for back taxes upon
their laud in that county. The com
pany owns 90,000 acres there, de
rived through the B. & M. the uu
paid taxes upon which amount to
$17,000! These are gigantic figures
and unless the C, B. & Q. liquidates
tho indebtedness, Antelope county
will sieze the land. Omaha Times.
A man undertook to cross the
track tho other day at Fremont, just
in front of a freight train on the U.
P. His effort proved a partial suc
cess so far as himself and horses
were concerned, but. the engine
struck the wagon and literally
smashed it into small pieces, throw
ing the driver from his seal to the
ground, cutting his head aud badly
bruising him. The horses became
frightened, ran away und were bad
ly used up.

that you, Mr. Speaker, have refused
us the freedom of discussion." Glad
stone said he had never before heard
such words used in the House.
A sad picture of desolation and
misery was witnessed the other day
at Omaha. A young and handsome
girl told her tale of misplaced con
fidence, and the base deception of a
male scoundrel ; she was seeking a
home in the county poor-housp to
shield her relations from whatever
shame attached to her offense.
Rort. Haltingej: of Chicago was
found dead in his bed tho other

ed that he had taken a dose of mor

his sweetheart, Kate Hill, who it is
feared will not live. Opposition of
pareuts to their love affairs was the
cause oftho suicide.
