The Judicial District Convention of
this (the 4th) judicial district is called
for September 20th. This district is
composed of Dodge, Saunders, Butler,
Colfax, Platte, Merrick and Nance
counties. This county has nine dele
gates in the convention composed of
thirty-nine members.
This convention will nominate a!
judge and district attorney. The
vacancy in the judgeship incident to
the division of the old 4th district
was filled by appointment of Judge
A. M. Post, of Columbus, by Gov.
Dawes. At the time of the appoint
ment there was some fault found at
this end of the district because a
brother of the former judge, George
W. Post, was appointed. This fault
finding grew ont of the fact that G.
W. Post was not in all respects satis
factory to the bar and the people, and
expressions to the effect that we bad
had enough Post was not infrequent.
But A. M. Post was the judge, and
the. bar, throwing aside any precon
ceived notions as to his qualifications,
bo far as we can learn, accorded to
him the right which every man has,
of being judged on his own merits
instead of upon the merits or demerits
of his brother. The result has been,
so far as we can learn, almost perfect
satisfaction on the part of the bar in
this county, and we have not heard a
complaint from abroad. He has
acquired a reputation for learning and
good judgment, for grace and impar
tiality, and for dignified gentlemauli-
ness in this part of the district which
will insure him, we believe, a hearty
and energetic support for renomina-
tion at the coming convention, atjeast
at the hands of Saunders county's
delegation.
Should he be renominated it will
doubtless be considered a practical
endorsement of Gov. Dawes in mak
ing the appointment, and quite as
gratifying to him as to Judge Post
himself.-Wahoo Tribune.

A young girl arrived the other day
at Grand Island from Germany, and
her friendB not being in town she
accepted an invitation from a farmer
named Plummer to ride in hiB wagon
into the neighborhood where her
friends resided. On the road, in an
out of the way place, Plummer com
mitted a devilish assault upon her
with a fiendish and lecherous purpose,
but the girl fought him and getting
away, finally reached her destination.
There is strong talk of prosecuting
Plummer, and some think he ought to
have a coat of tar and feathers. The
trouble with all such creatures is that
they lack manliness, or nobility, that
spirit which instinctively protects the
weak and guards the defenceless.
Judge Jebe Black died at York,
Pa., at ten minutes past 2 o'clock on
the 19th inst. Though not unexpect
ed, his death wsb a sudden shock to
the community. From the beginning
of his illness the judge believed he
never would recover, and was en
tirely resigned. His funeral took
place on the 21st and was by far the
largest ever seen in York. All busi
ness was suspended, and the streets
thronged with people as the funeral
cortege passed. Many distinguished
persons were present. The pall bear
ers were Gen. Hancock, Judge Gib
son, Judge Wickes, G. Small, Gen. S.
A. Crawford, Chief Justice Mercury,
A. B. Farquhar, G. H. Spriggs, Judge
Bear and W. L. Small.
The Mt. Sterling accommodation to
Lexington, Ky., ran into the rear car
of a train on the Kentucky railway at
Winchester crossing the other day
exploding four hundred kegs of giaut
powder. The depot was wrecked and
the engine blown to atoms. Engineer
Wheeler was not found. Yard mas
ter Randall was killed, conductor
McMichael fatally injured, and Beven
others supposed to be killed. Perhaps
this was the most terrific explosion
ever known in America.
The Chicago Inter Ocean says "the
present depression in stocks is some
thing more than bear-baiting and
bull-fighting. The drop is too great
for that. It is certainly not due to
a stringent money market. No pan
icky feeling prevails. The banks are
ready to accommodate borrowers, as
usual. The people are coming to
their senses. The lambs do not pro
pose to have this clip of wool sheared
on Wall Btreet. This is about the size
of it."
bet's Grand Series of Excursions.
The grand excursions eastward an
nounced for September by the Balti
more and Ohio arc attracting wide
spread attention, and it is not strange
that such should be the case, as no
more attractive trip has been offered
for years. In the way of rates the
programme is particularly enticing,
as it is very rarely indeed nowadays
that a reduction on tickets is consent
ed to, down to so low a figure as half
fare, or one regular fare for the round
trip, thus taking in the enormous ter
ritory covered by the B. & O. system,
of which Chicago, Columbus, St.
Louis, Louisville, Cincinnati and
Pittsburg are important centres. Ev
ery preparation is being made in the
matter of cars, dining accommoda
tions and the like, and the excursions
will be remarkable for complete and
thorough facilities to insure absence
of crowding and the perfect comfort
of all. Magnificent new parlor and
sleeping cars will be run through
without change, elegant dining cars
provided and new day coaches iu
abundance. From Baltimore and
Washington extensive facilities will
be offered for the continuous enjoy
ment of the excursionists. Two lines
of steamers will be on from Wash
ington to Old Point Comfort, Fortress
Monroe and Norfolk, with the fare
not exceeding one dollar and a-half
for the round trip. The famous Bay
Line of steamers from Baltimore to
the points named will afford ample
accommodation on superb vessels
lighted with electricity. The noted
Hygiea Hotel at Old Point is of im
mense dimensions, one of the largest
sea-shore or watering-place houses in
fact in the country. It is a glorious
trip down the beautiful Chesapeake
Bay to tho Atlantic Ocean. Old Point
never looked more attractive than
now, and its bathing shore is a sight
to look upon when filled, as it is every
day, with hundreds of merry bathers
tumbling about in the surf. Fortress
Monroe is but a few steps from the
hotel and open to tourists, as are all
the many places of great historic in
terest within easy reach ou the Penin
sula, so celebrated in the annals of
the war; the Soldiers' Home, Hamp
ton Church and too many other
points to mention, while a brief
steamboat ride lands the tourist in
Norfolk, Portsmouth and other Vir
ginia centres of interest. Making the
trip from either Washington or Bal
timore one night, and back the next,
the excursionist has the whole day at
the sea-shore. From Baltimore or
Washington it is only a little over
two hours' ride to Harper's Ferry, the
most noted spot perhaps among all the
historic centres on. the Potomac. The
lovely river is followed a greater
portion of the distance, and at the
Ferry one stands at the intersection
of three States Virginia, West Vir
ginia and Maryland all replete with
memorable recollections. John
Brown's old fort still stands, so do
the ruins of the old arsenal, Jefferson
Rock, etc., etc. The round trip costs
but about a dollar and a-half, and the
money well spent. Another inexpen
sive trip, and a most delightful one,
too, is that from Washington down
the Potomac, . skirted by .historic
shores, to Mount Vernon. From Bal
timore and Washington special fast
excursion trains will be run to the
wonderful Luray Caverns of Virginia,
unquestionably greatly superior to
any other known subterranean cham
ber. Tho fare, three fifty for the
round trip, including admission to
the caverns. In addition, there will
be short steamboat trips down the
Chesapeake Bay, with as low a rate
as fifty cents for the round trip, and
in fact no eud of pleasure to be com
manded at practically nominal fig
ures. From Baltimore to Washington
and return, or Washington to Balti
more and return, the round trip will
only be a dollar twenty, with trains
at least every hour, and often hardly
more than a quartor of an hour apart.
The distance is but forty miles, and
B. &. O. trains make it in fifty min
utes, some of them, and others in one
hour. This enables frequent visits
from one city to the other, and excur
sionists who prefer may make their
headquarters in Washington, whero
there are hotel accommodations for a
very multitude. Baltimore is also
exceedingly well provided with ho
tels, and in either city the regular
rates will be strictly adhered to.
Thoec who contemplate securing
sleeping-car accommodations en route
will do well to write to B. & O. agents
to this end, also as regards any infor
mation which may bo desired. The
preparations for the grand Oriole fes
tival in Baltimore are being pushed
forward with great energy and upon
a hitherto unprecedented scale. The
mystic pageant on the night of Sep
tember 13th will itself be worth a
1 journey of a thousand miles or more
to witness. Nothing approaching it
in extent and grandeur was ever be
fore attempted in the world. All
three of the carnival nights will be
strikingly brilliant, as the programme
is replete with novel features.

Pike sawdust, highly compressed,
has been successfully used to make up
center frames of carriage wheels. It
is said to be so solid that it will bear
a pressure equal to twenty-three tons
per square inch. As sawdust has also
been ujed for partitions and bricks,
its application to the production of
complex carvings and moldings does
not seem to be far off.
Lord Edmtjxd Fitzmaurice, under
foreign secretary, stated in commons
the other day in London that the gov
ernment of Great Britain had asked
the Russian government to give an

Jew, representing a London business
firm, who was provided with the
proper British passport.
Albekt Tabor living near Grand
Island, while descending from a load
of grain slipped and was impaled on
one of the sharp corner stakes of the
rack, which entered near the rectum
and penetrated several inches, lacer
ating the bowels and inflicting a most
ugly and dangerous wound. Dr.

dressed the wound, and he is doing as
well as conld be expected.
Another spot for pilgrimage will
soon be added to tho shores of the
Potomac, the government having pur
chased twenty acres of land, being the
site of the birthplace of the father of
his country, and which contains the
tomb where his remains now lie. The
government intends to enclose the
twenty acres and otherwise improve
the premises too long neglected.
Ezra Douglas and his wife, of Ne
braska City, one night last week had
quite a dispute and an excited quarrel,
which ended in his wife shooting and
instantly killing him and then shoot
ing and taking her own life. The in
vestigation by the coroner's jury pro
nounced Mrs. Douglas insane. They
were both buried in one grave, and
thus ended the tragedy.

Health Notett.
"Hounded features." Look at a
healthy ehild. What roundness of
form, what fine curves, what graceful
gestures ! There is nothing abrupt, or
forced, or unnatural, or affected. The
changes from this condition to tho re
verse are gradually produced, as the
child becomes a man. or a woman, by
hard labor, by privations, by physical
or mental suffering, but above all by
the destructive power of vile passionB.
A word to the wise is sufficient.
"The "Will must sit supreme." Here
we touch on the core of the difficulty.
Ill-health is much more the result of
weakness and perversity of Will than
is generally supposed. Also, reverse
ly, ill-health leads to Will-weakness.
Ignorance of the laws of health is a
source of much suffering; yet a com
plete knowledge of them is not suffi
cient. We must also be in possession
of the Will power to live in accord
ance with them. How and where
obtain this Will power? To answer
this question and to solve this su
preme problem is the proper and
peculiar province of religion. The
object of religious activity is the com
plete and perfect health and sound
ness of the human being using the
term health not in its limited, but in
its universal snd philosophical sense.
From this high philosophical stand
point, pride, selfishness, hatred, un
charitablenesB, envy, malice, levity,
profanity, irreverence, carnal lust, un
truthfulness, are all so many dis
eases, or rather, the various symptoms
of one fundamental disease. And
these deeper diseases are of greater
importance than the mere physical
and superficial, Inasmuch as they are

OKGANAL 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 excesaes from not being
aware of the dreadful consequences that may ensue. Now who that understand
this subject will deny that procreation is lost sooner by those falling into improper
habits than by prudent? Besides beini: deprived of the nleasure of bealthv nfr.
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 irritability, dyspepsia, palpitation of the heart, indi
gestion, constitutional debility, wasting of the frame, cough, consumption and death.
