The acts removing the disabilities
of Alex. P. Stewart, of Mississippi,
Edward G. W. Bntlor, of Missouri,
and TIiob. L. Kosser, of Virginia,

The Inter Ocean says "Washington
is in a bad wav. It has a President
who is cabinet sick ; revenue tinkers
who are tariff eick ; gold-bug senators
who aro silver sick, and one senator
love sick.
The mangled body of a man was
found the other morning on the rail
road track near Albuquerque, N. M.,
which proved on investigation to be
the body of a brother of Congressman
Laird, of Nebraska.
J. II. McGuibe, a clerk in the quar
termaster's department at Camp Car-
lin lost his life one night last month
by exposure and freezing to death
near Camp Carlin about one mile and
a half from Cheyenne.
Shebiff Cubben, of Fremont, ar
rested and brought down from Grand
Island the other day, E. A. Feather,
who had in days past made too many
sweet promises and pledges to Misa
C Hansen, of Fremont.
The citizens of Chadron, Neb., sent
a long petition tho other day to tho
House at Washington asking for tho
establishment of a new northwest
land district and that Chadron bo
made the seat of tho land office.
A Hastings school marm got left
by the train ten miles away from
home the other evening, and she
walked that distance home in two
hours and fifty minutes. That is Ne
braska pluck, and such girls are the
hope of the earth.
Fbemont citizens want a union
depot and are agitating tho subject.
That is what tho citizens of Colum
bus want, and certainly three or four
strong and wealthy railroad com
panies aro able to erect a first-class
dopot in this city.
Ik the Ilouee at Washington the
post-office committeo has completed
the post-office appropriation bill and
it will be promptly reported to the
House. The bill appropriates for tho
servico during the next fiscal year tho
sum of $54.3:6,dSSf an increase of
1625,578 over the present year.
The Wyoming Territorial Legis
lature has passed tho bill to erect a
capitol building at Cheyenne to cost
$150,000, and for the erection of a ter
ritorial university at Laramie City to
cost $50,000. There is great rejoicing
throughout tho territory, as these
buildings were greatly needed.
An exchange says : "As a curious
experience in regard to the changed
condition of affairs in the west, it is
Btated that buffaloes are bred in Kau
sas for sale, and calves bring $30 each
now, where, tweuty years ago, herds
of thousands of these cattle ranged
over the prairies without inter
ference." A Mon of eighty masked men visited
the Chinese working hack of East
Portland, Oregon, tho other night, and
drove them out. Some of the men
woro masks, others had their faces
blackened, aud a!l were armed. They
worked with great fcorecy, and tho
civil authorities know nothing of
their movements.
The last accounts from the death of
Alonzo Laird in Now Mexico, appear
to strengthen the belief that he was
murdered and his body placed on tho
railroad track. His brother, Con
gressman Laird, who has gone down
to New Mexico, feels that when he
reaches the ground in person he will
have no difficulty in tracing the mur
derers. Senatob Van Wtck, from the
committee on pensions, the other day
reported, with an amendment, the
house bill to increase the pensions of
widows and dependent relatives of

month; the amount fixed by the
house, is $4 a month.

Hok. Oblando Tefft of Cass coun
ty is in the field again for the U. S.
Seaatorship. This is not intended for
joke, either on the part of the Press
or the two penny candidate. So says
the Nebraska City Press. It will be
remembered that in the contest five
years ago, Van Wyck, who was him
self in the State Senate, continuously
voted for Orlando, for U. S. Senator.
Have "the old man" and his old friend
of Cass parted company ( u
wkerefere?
so, I
I
Van Wtck may be an extremist,
and some of his notions impolitic, but
one thing is noticeable, he is kx
tbemelt apt to be on the right side
of almost every question that comes
before the senate for consideration.
He is not idle, either, and his in
fluence in the Senate can bo easily
measured by the amount of abuse
neaped upon him through the mo
nopoly tools of the Unitod States.
The Nation, a most ably edited organ
of the moneyed syndicates of Wall
street, is full of bitter invectivo
against Van Wyck because be dares
to boldly defend tho interests of
labor against organized capital. The
war against Van Wyck is started
thus early in the season in the vain
hope of entirely squelching him
before the campaign of next fall. It
is no use; tho people of Nebraska,
without regard to party, pronounce
upon the head of their senior senator
"well done, good and faithful ser
vant; thou hast manfully battled for
us, wo will shield thee from the
poisonous aeeaults of thy fool ad
versaries, and shelter thee for 6ix
years to como in the scnato chamber
at Washington." Fullerton Journal.
To Break Off Had Habit.
The following paragraphs contain
about as much solid, common sense
as is generally fonnd in so many
words, and those who are bound in
tho iron chains of any bad habit will
find good in ponderiug these sen
timents: "Understand the reasons, and all
the reasons, why the habit is in
jurious. Study the subject until there
is no lingering doubt in your mind.
Avoid tho places, the persons, and
tho thoughts that lead to the tempta
tion. Frequent tho places, associate
with the persons, indulge in thoughts
that lead away from temptation.
Keep busy; idleness is the strength
of bad habits. Do not givo up tho
struggle when you have broken your
resolution, once, twice, thrice a
thousand times. That only shows
how much need there is for you to
strive. When you have broken your
resolutions, just think the matter over
and endeavor to understand why it is
you failed, so that you may be on
vour guard against a recurrence of
the same circumstances. Do not
think it an easy thing that you have
undertaken. It is a folly to expect to
break off a habit in a single day
which has been gathering long years."
Kansas City, Mo., it is said only a
few years back was one of those dead
and done western towns, charac
terized by hopeless stagnation every
where, without a prophet or a pros
pect for the fnture, shunned by cap
ital and given tho go-by by enter
prise, but now, in less than ten years,
tho city ranks as one of tho most
enterprising and successful on tho
continent. There is good reason to
hope for other towns in the west,
having better and more central
locations in their several states, than
Kansas City, and surrounded by as
good, if not better, agricultural and
producing regions of country. Cit
izens of towns thus favored in loca
tion, with proper enterprise and
energy, led on by her citizens of
capita, may yot live to eoo thnir
population run up from 3,000 or 4,000
to something like that of Kansas
City, 105,049.
Some of the strikers at Chicago,
who bad assembled the other day to
prevent the opening of the McCor
mick's reaper works, advised the mob
to shoot any one entering tho yards.
One hundred and fifty men had re
ported for doty. A large police force
was on hand to preserve order and
arrested three or four of tho strikers,
who were noisy and agrcseive. Fi
nally the police ordered the great
crowds of strikers back. They were
slow to move at first, but when
ordered to disperse tho second time
and tho police officers advanced they
turned and ran across the prairies,
scattering in all directions. Tho po
lice arrested in all twenty men. In
five minutes, according to Mr. Mc
Cormick's count, three hundred and
fifty men were at work in the various
departments.
Three terrible tragedies recently
occurred, all on account of jealousy.
Gottlieb Lenlz, of Philadelphia, cut
his wife's throat with a razor tho
other evening and shot himself, both
dying instantly. The neighbors all
speak very highly of Mrs. Lenlz, aud
say her husband had no cause for his
jealousy. Theodore P. Kich, of New
York state, arrived in St. Paul the
other day and learned that his wife
was living with one A. S. Gale. IIo
sought an interview with her, which
resulted in his shooting hor dead aud
then shooting himself. Frank Burgel
of Massillon, the other night shot his
wife Cynthia, after which ho went
about fifty rods from bis own house
and committed suicide by cutting his
throat. At last report Mrs. Burgel
was still alive.
It is Btated in the Omaha Bee that
it costs from 12 to 15 cents to trans
port a bushel of corn from Chicago to
New York, a distance of more than
800 miles. It costs 28 cents a bushel
to haul corn from Cozad, Nebraska, to
Denver, a distance of 300 miles. And
yet we are informed that the rates on
Nebraska roads are fair and reason
able, and that the men who complain
of them are granger cranks and
socialistic reformers who are trying
to destroy property interests and in
terfere with the vested right to charge
patrons "what the traffic will bear."
The word "nonsense" will need a
new definition.
A bepobt comes from Matamoras,
Mexico, that Samuel Reede, who was
implicated in the murder of a rich
Jew named Block, made a confes
sion the other day, giving full par
ticulars of the crime. He says that
Samuel Williams, also a deserter
from the Eighth U. S. cavalry, struck
Block with a thick piece of iron and
then assaulted him with a knife.
They got bnt little money, the greater
part being in a safe which they over-
looked. .
The murder of Mrs. George Gra
ham, wife No. 1, whose dead body
was found in an old well on the
Malloy farm near Springfield, Mis
souri, the other day, finally led to the
arrest the other morning of Mrs.
Emma Malloy and Cora Lee, wife
No. 2 of Graham. The warrant for
arreBt included the name of Graham
charged with the 6ame offence and
procured by the sister of Mrs. Gra
ham, wife No. 1. The evidence of
Graham's gnilt accumulated so thick
and fast that on the night of the 2d
he made a full and lengthy confession
in which he says he alone is responsi
ble for the death of Mrs. Graham, and
no one else was in any way concerned
with him .in the matter.
Mbs. Quisenbebb's house in Chi
cago was discovered on fire the other
morning. Neighbors hastening to the
bnrning house, heard cries of distress
and found Mrs. Quisenberry in the
yard with her clothes on fire. Water
was dashed over her, but she was
dead. The house was wrapped in
flames and beyond control. The
charred remains of Mrs.Quiscnberry's
two 6onB were afterwards found in
the ruins of the building.
Abbott Lawrence, the assistant
cashier of tho National Exchange
Bank of Milwaukee, was shot and
dangerously wounded by Geo. A.
Ward tier, formerly book keeper of
the same bank. No cause is known
for the shooting, but it is believed
that Wardner's mind was affected
and ho was influenced to commit the
deed by some fancied wrong. He
voluntarily gave himself up.
Dn. Gale, the causo of the double
murder at St. Paul, who was warned
to leavo the city, has disappeared, and
J. Sheppard Smith, of Cobleskill, N.
Y., arrived tho other morning to take
home tho remains of his nicco. Smith
states that Gale's prime motive in tho
a flair was to secure all the money
possiblo from his victim, Mrs. Rich.
S. M. Young, night agent of the
Burlington road at Glenwood, Iowa,
one night last month appropriated a
package of $1,000, and disappeared.
Tho other afternoon officer Fowler
saw Young on the streets at Lincoln
and arrested him. Young has been
in Lincoln under the namo of Mills
ever since the robbery.
A pabagraph regarding tho great
cheapness of petroleum as compared
with coal for running a steamer is
going the rounds of tho papers. It is
claimed that the fluid is perfectly sat
isfactory and costs only one-seventh
as much as tho coal ; besides the labor
of handling it is very considerably
less.
The Deputy U. S. Marshal Stewart
the other day arrested at Blooming
ton, Neb., county treasurer Hildreth,
who was taken to Lincoln, charged
with contempt of court in levying
upon property in the hands of the U.
S. court, originally property of tho
Nebraska Lumber Company.
WaftklBCtea Letter.
(From our regular correspondent.)
Washington, March 4, 1886.
Unusually animated debates are
promised at the Capitol this.week.
Tho impending fight between the
President and Senate begins to-day.
The Republican caucus resolutions
will bo met by two sets of counter
resolutions from tho Democrats, one
set from tho Democrats of the
Judiciary Committee and another
from Senator Morgan alone, de
claring impeachment tho only logical
outcome of a Cabinet officer's viola
tion of tho law.
The House of Representatives
promises silver and nothing but sil
ver for the next ten days. Sixty
members have signified their inten
tion to bo heard on this subject, and
yet all agrco that the talk will change
no man's vote nor lead to any legis
lation. When the last man has mado
his speech the House will be likely
to vote against the suspension of sil
ver coinage by a large majority, and
that will be the only positive finan
cial act done by Congress this winter.
The Blair Educational bill is still
under fire in the Senate. It is likely
to pass both Houses of Congress al
though it is not honestly approved by
the majority in either body. Many
leading Representatives and Senators
think it will result in nothing more
than the mere "-pending of a large
amount of money, but they aio not
willing to be placed on record as
opposing any educational proposi
tion.
The investigation of Solicitor Gen
eral Goode, who is to conduct the
Pan-Electric Telephone suit in place
of Attorney General Garland, is in
progress. The proceedings are in
secret and but one witness at a time
is allowed to come before the com
mittee. When it was made known
that certain charges had been made
against the Solicitor General, that
wonld prevent his confirmation by
the Senate, he went to Senator Ed
munds and asked to see the charges
that had been preferred before the
Jndiciary Committee. Mr. Edmunds,
the chairman, replied that Mr. Goode
wonld be given due notice when the
committee took up the matter, and
every opportunity would be given
him to defend himself.
Congress has had so much irrele
vant talk of late that it was fonnd
necessary to set apart one day of each
week (Saturday was agreed upon) for
general debate, thus giving members
an opportunity for clearing up per
sonal differences. Scarcely a day
passes that some memberdoes not
give mortal offense to another, by
remarks of a personal nature, but at
the time both are prevented from
saying all they wish to say on ac
count of the rules. Hereafter Satur
day will be a free day for all. Every
Congressman with a grievance will
make it known, and the House gal
leries will be crowded with visitors,
for there is nothing that the latter
enjoy so much as a partisan or per
sonal quarrel.
Apropos of quarrels, there was a
bitter one in the Senate a few days
since between two members of the
happy Democratic family. It was
accommodatingly omitted from the
Senate report of the Congressional
Record. The episode was quite as
personal as anything that has oc
curred in Congress of late years, and
has made a breach between Senators
Morgan, of Alabama, and George, of
Mississippi, that cannot easily be
healed. In the course of a speech on
the Educational bill which Mr.
George advocates and Mr. Morgan
opposes,, the former Senator under
took to convict the latter of incon
sistency by reading remarks of bis
delivered in the last Congress. Mr.
Morgan said tho reading misrepre
sented him, and the Senator from
Mississippi knew it. Mr. George re
tortod that this statement waB untruo
and that Mr. Morgan knew it. Other
equally unparliamentary exchanges
were made, and the Sonators from
Alabama and Mississippi "no longer
speak as they pass by."
The social world of the Capital is
finishing tho last days of the gay
season which precede tho Lenten
severities at the reckless speed of five
teas in one afternoon and as many
receptions in one evening. It is sur
prising, too, that entertainers should
crowd these last days of tho seasou
with "teas" which would be a per
fectly permissible form of amuse
ment even to tho deeply penitent,
austere world a few weeks hence.
Even the most rigidly censorious find
nothing to call dissipation in this
mild form of entertainment.
There is a vast difference, in Wash
ington society, between a "tea" and a
"high tea." Tho "tea" takes place
from three to five in the afternoon,
and is usually attended by married
ladies and young maidens, with a
sprinkling of society young men,
whose chief occupation is the en
couragement of their first perceptible
mustache. Tho refreshments consist
of tea, coffee, ices, cake, aud au abun
dance of gossip.
A "high tea" is a much more
elaborate entertainment and takes
place in the evening. It is attended
by society people, generally. There
is always an extensive spread of del
icious refreshments, including un
limited punch, and gossip, tho latter
delicately flavored with the aroma ot
scandals in hijrh life.

The Incurable Cured A Plain
Nfatciueut of Fact.
My mother, Mrs. Feathers, baa had
a cancer of the womb for many
months. Last winter the doctor told
us it was cancer, and could not be
cured. Five different physicians in
private practice have said the same
thing. We took her to the woman's
hospital of this city, and there they
repeated the 6ame story. Dr. Em
mett told us it was cancer, and she
innBt die. We then took her to the
New York College Hospital, and
they told us the same thing there
that she had cancer and could live
bnt a very short time. She was then
carried to my house, where she
awaited patiently the coming of
death as her only relief. We saw the
advertisement of the Swift Specific
Co., and as a "drowning man grasps
at a straw," we went to the office of
the company, and the physician told
me to try it that it conld do her no
possible barm, and that it wonld euro
her. Sho bad lost a great deal of
flesh and strength, and it seemed folly
to give her medicine after what we
had been told. However, wo com
menced tho S. S. S., and kept it up a
month before we began to see any
improvement. From that time . on
her general health improved, and she
was soon raised from bed. The dis
charge increased so much that it
frightened as, bat we kept on, and
the cancer came away in great
sloughs and lamps. For two months
now there has been no hemorrhage,
no sign of a discharge. Thank God,
my mother is well. Sho is still at my
house, and will bo glad to speak for
herself at any time.
