Carl C Laxtz is about to es tablish a large creamery at Fnllerton. Empebob William "was reported laBt week in a very weak condition. Fulleb, republican, was elected Mayor of Philadelphia by 28,000 ma jority. The creamery at Fremont is eaid to have put up 20,366 lbs. of butter last month. Ashlaxd is about to establish waterworks. $13,000 have been voted for that purpose. Representative Bowmax has in troduced a bill to amend pection 69, chapter 14, compiled statutes. Boston- Cobbet, Blayer of John Wilkes Booth has been declared in sane at Topeka, Kan., and sent to the insane asylum. The Senate of New York haB pass ed a bill, by a vote of 20 to 9. grant ing women the right to vote at mu nicipal elections. Sioux Crrr last week was visited by burglars. They succeeded in en tering several residences, but failed in securing much booty. The governed of Kansas has ap proved the bill, and it is now a law, conferring the right on women to vote at municipal elections. The Senate has adopted the con ference report retiring the trade dollar. The House did the same. The bill now goes to the President. President Cleveland has vetoed . 4he bill appropriating ten thousand dollars for tho distribution of secdB to tlie drought-stricken counties in Texas. Mbs. Logan was to leave Wash ington last week with the intention of going to Chicago to settle her husband's business and to select a burial place. It is said that the snow that caused tho blockade on tbe Central Pacific road, extended a distance of only four miles between Towles, Cal. "and Blue Canon. The enow-shcd6 at Blue Canon collapsed. Hood, tho brakeman, the road master end one other man are missing. The plov? and seven en gines :ere ditched. Pbesident Clfvelaxd has allow ed tho act appropriating $100,000 a year to provide for arms and equip ments for the militia to become a law without his signature. W. Teed, E. Gritzinger and II. D. McTighe, all about 14 years of age, wero drowned in Garden City Lako on the afternoon of the 13th inst., by falling through tho ice. Thos. B. Maloxe, of Stella, Neb., committed suicide at Grand Island by firing a pistol ball into his head. No cause is assigned for the act ex cept he was tired of life. John Hammond, it is said, has de clined the postal clerkship offered him on the line from Columbus to Albion. That p.ctiou on the part of Mr. Hammond is unusual. President Cleveland has accept ed the resignation of Secretary Man ning. It is believed that bis success or will not assuino the duties of the office before the 1st of April next. J. E. Stiles and C H. Dean have been arrested in San Francisco, charged with being perpetrators of the recent dynamite outrages on the SoUon& Geary street cable lines. Fkfdericktown. Mo., was visited by a very heavy shock of earthquake the other uight. The shock was so severe as to overthrow furniture and displace plastering from the walls. Lyons and Owasso, Mich., and Chicago wero troubled last week with high water. The damage was not very great, except at Lyons where tho loss would reach tbe thousand. Sixty days have been granted by the Secretary of the Interior to the C. B. & Q. railroad to show why 200,000 acres of its Nebraska lands should not be restored to entry and settlement. Harvey Barcus was captured tbe the other day at Onawa, la., by Sheriff Elwood, of Antelope county, and brought to Neligh, Neb. He is charged w ith forgery and obtaining goods under false pretences. Recent report from San Francis co eays that snow blockade last week on the Central Pacific, which it was expftted would be raised, continues. No mails have been received here from the east for three days. The certificate of what purported to be the election of David Turpie, U. S. Senator, has been presented to the Senate. On motion of Senator Hoar, it was referred to the commit tee on Privilege and Elections. WEEriNG Water was visited the other night by burglars. They broke into Marshall's boot and shoe store, and Ripley's butcher 6hop. They - opened the safes in each place, but did not find auytbing of value to .them in either. One afternoon last week a re spectable lady of Osceola, near the city, was most brutally assaulted by an nnknown ruffian. During the struggle the young lady became un conscious. Two hundred dollars reward is offered for his arrest and conviction. ' He is about 25 years old, with a white cowboy hat and leather band and belt around tbe waist He rode a bay or sorrel horse aad went off in a aorthwesterly "A Farmer," writing to the Quill of Schuyler, from West Hill, this county, says, among ythcr things, that the editor of thte Columbus Journal "opposed the resolutions endorsing Van Wyck inae county convention from the facttnat he was afraid of Van Wyck's enemies." The Journal has already s'.ated why M. K. T. voted "no" on the only resolu tion that was offered at tbe conven tion, which was, not because that resolution approved Senator Van Wyck's general course in the Senate, but because the same resolution laid down a somewhat plausible excuse for an elected member of the legisla ture, chosen upon tbat platform, to violate the wishes of bis constituents so far as supporting Van Wyck was concerned, and yet hold to tbat part of the resolution approving the sena torial caucus. The writer hereof will say to this correspondent tbat be challenges him to come forward and maintain tbe assertion be has made, as quoted above. Otherwise, be requests him, in all fairness, to retract it. An attempt at the iormer, or tbe desire to do tbe latter would show that the QutlFs correspondent haB some moral courage, and does not, in a personal contest where he impugns a man's motive, take and keep the coward's position ot hiding his identity, under the guise of au in nocent "farmer." A Grand Island dispenser of dry groceries politely requested a debtor to pay a bill of HO before leaving town. Tbe latter jingled tbe coin in his pocket and invited the grocery man to take it out of his hide. "I'll go you," he responded as he ordered the clerk to lock the door. There was a brief but lively embrace, boxes and barrels danced around, and in the height of the matinee a smothered cry was beard, "Hold enough." The meek and mutilated repudiator forked over the cash and departed. This lorcible process of tauDing and extraction is commended in its naked beauty. Bee The post-office, C. A. Hardy & Co lumber dealers, the B. & M. and Speltz & Keosterman, graiu buyers at David City, all had their safes and places burglarized the other night. Tho postmaster was the chief suf ferer, losing over six hundred dollars in money and stamps. Hardy & Co. lost $17 and the B. & M. a trifle out of the cash drawer. The grain buyers had their eafe badly wieckod but lost no money. No in lot niation of the burglars, but supposed to be the saniC gang of rascals that operated in Schujler tho other night. Captain D. T. Todds's lifeless body was found the other morning at bis store room in Dcs Moiuce, la. He stated to his family in the evening that he had to go down to the store to meet a man. Tbe theory is tbat he was murdered by some one going behind him with a chloroform ban dage, and that after he had become stupefied ho was led to the refrigera tor and allowed to fall ou his face as found, nis case is being investi gated. He was a captain in the Union army, highly respected, and in prosperous circumstances. Grand Island's public spirited men have secured that place for the location of tbe Soldier's home. Those citizens deserve great credit for their efforts in securing tho location of tho home, and the state similar credit in providing means for its establish ment. Men who fought to maintain the Union and who became disabled thereby, deserves a better place than the public poor houses. They want and deservo a home of their own that they can go to and bo kindly and properly cared for, the remainder of their days. .1. F. McKay, a former resident of Fajfttc county, Pa., has been arrest ed n-ar St. Petcrsbnrg by Russian authorities, on suspicion of being an E'iglish spy. McKay had gouo to Europe to complete his education. Au English passport was found on his person and therefore bis arrest. His father is corresponding with the Russian Minister at Washington for bis release. A recent number of the Demo crat having threatened destruction to those who charged tbat Fuch's campaign in Colfax county was made in favor of Van Wyck, the Flail re torts: "Let your bass-wood toma hawk descend, Frank, for wo repeat tbat the Fnchs campaign in this county was run directly on the Van Wyck issue." It is stated at Sioux City that D. W. Wood, late attorney for the Law and Order League, has gone to New York, it is believed, to see Treibcr, the fugitive and alleged conspirator in tbo Haddock case. It is believed that tbe prosecution can also procure the attendance of Lewis Platb, another indicted conspirator, when the case comes on for hearing. Last week high waters were re ported at Port Deposit, Md., the gorge at McCall's ferry having given away and the main street and two miles or more of the Columbia and Port Deposit railroad submerged two or three feet. About a mile of their track is under water at Port Deposit and traffic entirely suspend ed. A report comes from Berlin that the character of the situation is threatening, across the western frontier. In view of this fact, buts have been contracted to shelter 100, 000 men. Preparations have been made to shelter a similar number at Bel fort. Mrs. Henrt Dunham, of Koscius ko connty, Ind., who was thought to have been murdered wheaier hus band and child was, has regained consciousness. Her mind is .now clear, and she says tbat Plew alone committed the horrible crime. James Miller, an Ohio Quaker, who went to Atlantay,Ga., a short time ago aud tock with him about $27,000 as tbo agent of a Quaker colony to purchase lands near At lanta, claims to have been rotated at his hotel in that city, of that anoflbt. He left his cash and checks ia bit vest pockets and on retiring to bed laid his clothes on the back of a chair and left bis room door unlocked, giving tbe thief a grand chance to obtain bis cash and checks. The colony he represented has an ag gregate amount of wealth of $250, 000. Senator Casper surprised tbe Sen ate by his speech on the railroad commission bill. It-wa9 clear, forci ble aud unanswerable, and delivered with a readiness tbat marked him as one of the beat thinkers and talkers in tbat body. There is not a man on the other side of the question who is a match for him in debate. Lincoln Democrat. Capt. E. Unger, on trial in New York for the murder of Louis Boble, whose body he cut op and shipped to Baltimore in a trunk, gave a state ment of tbe horrible occurrence be fore the court in an excited and dra matic way concluding with, I did it in Belf defense. Mary C. Anderson, a young and beautiful girl, was shot in the head the other night within a short dis tance of her home in tbe suburbs of Mount Holly, N. J., and left to die by the roadside. Her lover Barclay Peak is charged with the crime and has been arrested. S. W. Montgomery was taken from Kearney, Neb., the other day to Lincoln by a United States Marshal on the charge of representing him self as a government detective. He has been threatening homesteaders with contests unless they bought him off. Another call of $10,000,000 of 3 per cent, bonds was expected to be issued this week, and that the entire 3 per cent, loan, of which there is now about $40,000,000 outstanding, will be entirely extinguished before the 1st of July next. G. F. Bulkey, partially insane, committed suicide the other night by cutting his throat at the Cincinnati House, Nebraska City, Neb. He has traveled over tbo 6tatcs and been un fortunate in business. He is a native of Michigan, where he has relatives. W&fclilBgtoB abetter. (From our regular correspondent.) Money for national defense, money for a new Navy, the trade dollar question, the Ends' ship railway, the backward appropriation bills, tbe educational bill, and the anti-polygamy bill are some of the subjects to which our law-makers have given attention during the week. The agitation in all sections of the country of the subject of immediate provision for national defenso has had its effect upon both Houses of Congress. Scuatc committees and House committees were buy at the same time devising ways and means for tbe increase of tho Navy and coast defenses, and they ran a race of diligence to get in first with their important measures. Tho Senate won and is doing nobly with the question of cruisers, gunboats, fortp, and all sorts ot defense. There has been a vast amount of talk over the President's veto of tho disability pension bill. This matter presents a remarkable spectacle to the country, and emphasizes the fact that the ways of tbe present admin istration are past finding out. "A Democratic President vetoes a gen eral pension law in order to enable Congress to reduce war taxes, and a Democratic speaker of the House ot Representatives uses his power to gag Congress to prevent the removal of the war tax on tobacco. When Capt. EadV great ship rail way scheme came up in tho Scuatc it was advocated by Senator Hour as one of tho most important steps that the American people bad taken for a generation. It would give them contioloftho markots of tbe world. After sketching the course of com merce in tbe past and in the present he said it would hereafter seek direct paths. There were two routes eastward and westward, ono through tbe Mediterranean sea had cut Asia and Africa in twain. Tbe other (not yet open) was to divide tbe American continent at Tehuantepec. The Senator thought if Congress would co-operate with tbe great American inventor and engineer in his plan for this purpose, it would go far towards securing future com mercial supremacy for tbe United States. "It is not the proposition of an adventurer" eaid he, "Capt. Eads stakes upon it a fame gained by two of the greatest engineering feats of the age." Senator Gibson favored all attempts to pierce tbe isthmuB, and would even applaud the genius of Lesseps if he were successful in opening the Panama canal, .and effacing the barrier of tbe chain of the Cordilleras. He was disposed to favor any en gineering scheme tbat was backed by tbe name of Eads. And then be said the proposed route would be a con tinuation of the Mississippi river in nearly a direct line, across the isthmus. The opening of the Ni caragua route would invite an issue with France, England and Spain on the Monroe doctrine. The Blair educational bill has been suppressed in committee by the dis tinguished leaders of tbe Democratic party, Messrs. Carlisle, Randall and Morrison. The Republican mem bers of tbe committee, Messrs. Reed and Hiscock, need one vote tc enable them to report the measure back to the House. A recent canvass of that I body satisfied the member who made I it tbat the bill woald command tbe ' suppor-f' of two-thirds of the mom bere,tff it could bo presented to them foRiction. "T'he peopljof Washington are waiting impatiently tpv Congress to take actiou upon several proposi tions. They all want Inauguration day, changed from the fourth of March to tbe thirtieth of April. They want an appropriation for running the elevator in tbe Washington Mon ument, and they want the grand memorial bridge that is to span the Potomac as a monument to General Grant. There is a fair prospect for the next President to be inaugurated on the last Tuesday iu April, 1889. This day in tbe Centennial year comes on the day on which Washington was inaugurated in 1790. Consequently there can be no scntimcntil ground for objection to the change, and the reasons in favor of it are obvious. It will add nearly two months to tbe short sessions of Congress, and it will bring the inaugural ceremonies io tbe most delightful season of the year. The people of the whole country would welcome it in the in terest of convenience to tho large numbers who flock here to tbo in augurations. magnificent I.Ut of Bi-j. g tho many valuable pre miums ollered this year to tbe sub scribers ot the Weekly lice we note three valuable 80-acre tracts of land, one of them located in Hall county, Nebraska,, is improved and includes a house, well, an elegant grove, etc. The other two are located in Howard county, Nebraska, and Woodbury county, Iowa.
