The Beatrice Express, the home or
gan of ex-Senator Paddock, deals with
Senator Van Wyck and certain other
persons because they have delayed the
sale of the Otoe Indian lands for two
years by "tinkering" Mr. Paddock's
original measure. The names of
Major Pearraan and a man by the
name of Barnes, who married an Otoe
woman, are used so as to lead to the
inference that there is something be
binef'these long-continued manipula
tions which go far to confirm rumors
which floated into these newspaper
headquarters several months ago that
there was something wrong, if not
verv rotten, in this sale of the Otoe
reservation lands. Senator Van Wyck
is not touched by these rumors, but
the question ib, "Ib it a steal with a
ring around it ?" Herald.
The "two years tinkering" of Sena
tor Paddock's original measnre has
blocked all chances of the steal with
a ring around it, which was hatched
somewhere in the neighborhood of
Gage county when the proposition to
sell the Otoe lands was first made.
The original measure left the door
open in half a dozen places for land
sharks and speculators, and the two
year's tinkering has closed it in a way
which several of Mr. Brown's friends
decidedly objected to. The law has
been delayed for amendment, and it
has been amended solely in the inter
ests of actual settlers, and with the
view of knocking out of time a horde
of speculators and harpies who had
gathered in Gage county ready to
nounce uDon the reservation the mo
ment it was offered for sale. With
sales restricted to 160. acres only to
actual settlers ready to make oath of
their intention to locate within three
months of purchasing it is difficult to
see where the chance for "a steal with
a ring around it" comes in. The
trouble seems to be that the steal was
stopped before it had a chance to be
accomplished, and the two years tink
ering which it took.to block the game
were two years put in to excellent
advantage. Omaha Bee.
Another weather prophet has been
discovered in Cincinnati, who proph
esies a dronth this summer, of terri
ble severity. He urges people to fill
their cisterns while they can, and use
water sparingly. Springs, wells,
creeks and rivers will be dried up, and
the ocean itself will be partly evapor
ated, to be afterwards poured on the
earth in the form of rain, hail and
snow, covering the whole land with
an awful flood. The weather, storm
and flood prophets are becoming more
numerous than profitable accom
plishing some harm by-exciting the
fears of the timid and nervous. Their
predictions and prophesies should be
discarded by all sensible people. We
know by actual experience these latter
day weather and storm prophets can
not with certainty foretell the storms,
else they would have warned the peo
ple of the recent destruction to prop
erty and life, which passed through
parts of some of the southern states.
We refer to this subject at all only
because there are those who really
have some faith in weather prog
nosticators. Tke PlaaetH ia JMmy.
The planetary records of May are
full of matters of exciting interest.
Two of the giant planets, Neptune
and Saturn, reach conjunction. Mer
cury arrives at eastern elongation,
and is visible as evening star during
the entire month. Venus and Mars
are in close conjunction. Every planet
in the system, viewed from the earth,
is in the northern declination. The
moon comos in for distinguished hon
ors. She is very near Saturn, she
occults Beta Scorpii, and she gets up
for a favored few, in the far-a-way
region of the Southern Pacific ocean,
the grandest, most sublime and awe
inspiring spectacle that terrestrial ob
servers ever beheld, when, for nearly
six precious minutes, her dark shad
ow conceals from view the glorious
orb of day. Providence Journal.
St. Louis tobacco men were last
week making great preparations for
what they call "Rebate day," May 1st,
when the law reducing the tax on
tobacco goes into effect. They claim

Tuesday, the 8th, will send oot extra
train b which will penetrate all the
country tributary to St. Louis, and
go even to San Francisco, with over
a million pounds of tobacco, aud be
fore the week is over will add anoth
er million pounds. StampB will be
delivered by the internal revenue
officers at midnight Monday, and
from that time goods will be forward
ed to destination as rapidly as stamps
can be affixed and trains made up.
The tenor of a Boston church choir
rose to express his regrets that the
I clergy, as a rule, knew so little of
music, and told this little anecdote as
an illustration of the prevailing ignor
ance : "One Sunday morning a min
ister sent me a hymn written in a
meter which did not fit any tune at
my disposal. There was just time for
me to rush to his room and ask him to
change the hymn. 'Why?' asked be,
evidently annoyed. 'Because, sir,' I
replied, 'there is not a tune in our col
lection of the same meter as this
hymn.' 'Is that all, sir?' he asked,
with great dignity ; 'then why, may I
ask, do you not sing a tune in some
other meter?"
The President has made the follow
ing appointments: Wood, Ohio, to

The town of Bellary, India, has
recently passed an ordinance "that
as the loose monkeys in the town have
become exceedingly troublesome, by

into the jungles, and that arrange

I take it that men and women were
made for business, for activity, for
employment. Activity is the life of
us all. To do and to bear iB the duty
of life. We know that employment
makes the man in a very great meas
nre. A man with no employment,
with nothing to do is scarcely a man.
The secret of making men is to put
them to work and keep them at it. It
is not study, not instruction, not care
ful training, not good parents, not
good society that makes men. These
are means ; but back of them lies the
grand moulding influence of man's
life. It is employment. A man's
business does more to make him than
everything else. It hardons his mus
cles, strengthens his body, quickenB
his blood, sharpens his mind, corrects
his judgment, wakes up his inventive
genius, puts his wits to work, starts
him on the race of life, arouses his
ambition, makes him feel that he is a
man and must fill a man's shoes, do a
man's work, bear a man's part in life,
and show himself a man in that part.
No man feels himself a man who is
not doing a man's business. A man
without employment is not a man.
He does not prove by his works that
he iB a man. He cannot act a man's
part. A hundred and fifty pounds of
bone and muscle- is not a man. The
bone and muscle and brain must know
how to act a man's part, do a man's
work, think a man's thoughts, mark
out a man's path and bear a man's
weight of character and duty, before
they constitute a man. A man is soul
and body in action. A statue if well
dressed may ajypear to be a man ; so
may a human being. But to be a mau
and appear to be are two very differ
ent things. Human beings grow, men
are made. The being that grows to
the stature of a man is not a man
until he is made one. The grand in
strmentality .of man-making is em
ployment. Hence it sets boys to
work, gives them trades, callings,
professions; puts the instruments of
man-making within their reach and
tells them to work out their man
hood. And the most of them do it
somehow, not always well. The meu
who fail to make a respectable man
hood are the boys who are put to no
business, the young men who have
nothing to do; the male beings that
have no employment. We have them
about us ; air-bubbles that burst and
are gone. Our men of wealth and
character, of worth and power, have
been early bound to some useful em
ployment. Many of them were un
fortunate orphan boys whom want
compelled to work for bread the
children of penury and lowly birth.
In their early boyhood they buckled
on the armor of labor, took upon their
little shoulders heavy burdens, as
sumed responsibilities, met fierce cir
cumstances, contended with sharp
opposition, chose the ruggedeBt paths
of employment because they yielded
the best remuneration, braved the
storms of toil till they won great vic
tories for themselves, and stood be
fore the world in the majesty of noble
manhood. This is the way meu are
made. There is no other way. Their
powers are developed in the field of
employment. Men are not born, they
are made. Genius, worth, power of
mind are more made than born.
Genius born may grovel in the dust;
genius made will mount to the skies.
Our great and good men that stand
along the paths of history bright and
shining lights are witnesses of these
truths. They stand there as ever
lasting pleaders for employment

Mii.Wm. Stradleman, whoso home
is in Lincoln, but whoso business
houses may be found in several coun
ties in the western part of the state,
is enjoying a few days of relaxation
from business in the bosom of his
family. Mr. Stadlcman informs us
that a perfect stream of immigration
is pouring into the valley from all
directions, and that the prices of
lands are jumping from four and
fivo dollars per acre to ten and twelve,
and those having lands for sale are
almost afraid to set a price for fear
their offer wiil be accepted. State
Journal.
Not far from Collinsville, 111., on
the farm of Hon. J. R. Mills, an in
teresting archeological discovery was
made by Mr. McAdams, assistant
state geologist, in a group of ancient
mounds. He dug up nine skeletons
of adults and children, both male and
female, most of them in a good state
of preservation, and also found a
large quantity of pottery, copper and
stone ornaments and domestic and
agricnltural implements. Among the
latter were several flint hoes which
had evidently been used a good deal.
It is claimed by many persons that
consumers pay all the taxes. In a
few weeks the tax on tobacco will be
reduced from sixteen to eight cents
per pound, and on cigars from six to
three dollars a thousand. A great
many people use tobacco, and if the
tax is takeu off we ought to be able
to discover it in the price. The treas
ury department will be more likely
to notice it than the people who use
it, as the department will feel it
about twenty-five millions.
Ex-President R. B. Hayes is des

DR. FI8HBLATT,
OF
OMAHA MEDICAL DISPENSARY,
ON' ACCOUNT OP HIS
Immense Practice
WILL MAKE
On FRIDAY,
AND WILL REMAIN ONE DAY AT THE CLOTIIEK HOI SF,
WHERE HE CAN BE CONSULTED ON
THE THROAT, and LUNGS, CATARRH, KIDNEY
AND BLADDER AND FEMALE DISEASES. AS WELL AS ALL
CHRONIC AND NERVOUS DISEASES.
DR. FISHBLATT
Has discovered the greatest cure in the world for weakness of the back and limbs,
involuntary discharges, impotency, general debility, nervousness, languor, confus
ion of ideas, palpitation ef the heart, timidity, trembling, dimness of siirht or giddi
ness, diseases of the bead, throat, nose or skin, affections of the liver, luns, stom
ach or bowels those terrible disorders arising from solitary habits of youth, and
secret practices more fatal to the victims than the souks ot Syrens to the mariners of
Ulysses, blighting their moit radiant hopes or anticipations, rendering marriage
impossible.
Those that are suffering from the evil practices, which destroy their mental aud
physical systems causing
MERVOUS DEBILITY,
the symptoms of which are a dull, distressed mind, which unlits them from perform
ing their business and social duties, makes happy marriage impossible, distresses
the action of the heart, causing flushes of heat, depression of spirits, evil forebod
ings, cowardice, fears, dreams, restless nights, dizziness, forgettulness, unnatural
discharges, pain in the back and hips, short breathing, melancholy, tire easllv of
company and have preference to be alone, feeling as tired in the morning as when
retiring, seminal weakness, lost manhood, white'bone deposit in the urine, nervous
ness, confusion of thought, trembling, watery and weak eyes, dyspepsia, constipa
tion, paleness, pain and weakness in the limbs, etc., should consult me immediately
and be restored to perfect health.
YOUNG MEN
"Who have become victims of solitary vice, that dreadful and destructive habit
which annually sweeps to an untimely grave thousands of young meu of exalted
talent and brilliant intellect who might otherwise entrance listening senators with
the thunders of their eloquence or wake to ccstacy the liviug lyre, may call with
full confidence.
MAKRrAGE.
Married persons or young men contemplating marriage be aware of physical
weakness, Iobs of procreative power, impotency, or any other disqualification speed
ily relieved. He who places himself under the care of Dr. Fishblatt may religiously
confide in his honor as a gentleman, and confidently rely upon his skill as a
physician.
ORGANAL WEAKNESS
Immediately cured and full vigor restored. This distressing affliction which ren
ders life a burden and marriage impossible, is the penalty paid by the victim for
improper indulgence. Young people are apt to commit excesses from not being
aware of the dreadful consequences that may ensue. Now who that understands
this subject will deny that procreation is lost sooner by those falling into improper
habits then by prudent? Besides being deprived of the pleasure of healthy off
springs, the most serious and destructive symptoms of both mind and bodv arise.
The system becomes deranged, the physical and mental functions weaken. Loss of
procreative powers, nervous irriiaDinty, uyspepsta., palpitation of the heart, indi
gestion, constitutional debility, wasting of the frame, cough, consumption and death.
A CURE WARRANTED.
Persons ruined in health by unlearned pretenders'who keep them trifling month
after month taking poisonous and iBjurious compounds, should 'apply immediately.
DE. FISHBLATT
Graduate of one of the moat eminent colleges of the United States, has effected some
of the most astonishing cures that were ever known; many troubled with rin'ing iu
the ears and head when asleep, great nervousness, being alarmed at certain sounds,
with frequent blushing, attended sometimoe with derangement of the mind were
cured immediately.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
Dr. P. addresses all those who have injured themselves by improper indul"ence
and solitary habits which ruin both mind and body, unfitting them for business
study, society or marriage.
These are some of the sad, melancholy effects produced by the early habits of
youth, viz: ."Weakness of the back and limbs, paina in the head and dimness of
sight, loss of muscular power, palpitation or the heart, dyspepsia, nervous irritabil
ity, derangement of digestive functions; debility, consumption, etc.
