Lydia Weaver swallowed some gas oline, by mistake for water, and was un conscious for a little while. Drs. Still man and Clark used the stomach pump, and the little girl is all right again.

Monday afternoon about half past five Robert McCray found the body of a young man, probably 22 years of age. lying about a quarter of a mile west of the U. P. railroad bridge, at the foot of the embankment on the north side of the track. Notice was given to Agent Meagher, and Coroner A. Heintz with a jurv .-on-siting of J. C. Tiffany, O. L. Baker, F. J. Hauter, T. W. Resh, T. McTaggart and J. F. Berney were soon on the ground. The body was brought in a box car to the city, and a thorough examination made. There were bruises about the cheat and hips and his testicles were crushed; Dr. Heintz is of the opinion that this last injury was the immediate cause of death. When McCray found the body, it was yet warm and Troth was issuing from the mouth. Sheriff Caldwell, who assisted the coroner, took charge of the few personal effects found. There was a letter, stamped for mailing, directed to Miss Anna Graham. 510 Mery street, Denver, Col., dated at Woodburn, Neb., a post office in Loup township. The letter was signed by Rosie Kurth, Genoa, Neb. A cabinet photograph if the same young lady was found, with a ring and pocket knife and a memorandum book, in which was noted a reference to Sol C. Towslee and J. L. Squires. The remains were removed to Henry Gass's undertaking rooms and prepared for burial. The jury instructed Sheriff Caldwell to go to Woodburn and learn what he could. It is difficult to conjecture just how the young man came to his death, whether he had fallen from the car, or whether he tried to board the train and was thrown, or whether he had leeu murdered, which seems likely, as there was evidence of considerable struggling where the body was found. It has not leen so very long since a dead IkxIv was found near this same place under some what suspicious circumstances. Two men who were on the ground, saw the man's wounds, etc., declare it as their firm lelief that he had leen on a train, may lie trying to steal a ride, and had leen kicked off, while the train was in motion. As we go to press, Sheriff Caldwell has not returned from Woodburn. - "California as it looks to me" is the caption of an article prepared for The Journal by J. H. Reed. It will appear in next week's issue. In letter, he says there are many misrepresentations sent out in pamphlets issued by real estate dealers. For instance, the Lima bean crop is set down to yield from 200 to 300 an acre, when the fact is, as he gets it from producers themselves, a yield of 50 an acre is above the average, and the cost of raising such crops is usually not given at all in these ac counts. "And then," he says, "there is the unreasonable proportion of the cost to the consumer of California products, especially fruit products, absorlied by carriage and handling as with our Ne braska farm products. Recently tin a day when a Columbus merchant said California fruit was so high he could not handle it, the owner of an orange or chard took me through his place, where there were bushels going to waste on the ground. He said the price was so low-that it did not pay to gather them. He had been selling some at 75 ceuts a box, holding from 150 to 200, and would be very glad to take less. Producers here as well as in the east, are beginning to look into this matter more closely, and business men. both those who handle farm products and those who manage their transportation, will soon find they have had the lion's share long enough. My health is decidedly im proving now, but I don't like this lazy life." Mrs. W. T. Rickly and little daugh ter Ruby ret urned Saturday from Mount Cleiiimoiis, Mich., where they went for Miss Ruby's health. Her left side had not grown for some time; her limb ftoin being an inch and a half shorter than the other, is now the same length. Tlie mineral baths she took completely cured the excrutiating headaches to which she was subject. One girl alnuit twelve years of age who had been crippled and worn a brace day and night for three years, took baths for three weeks and was able to go without her brace for two or three days at a time. The mineral water seems to expand the muscles. They were at Sarnia, Canada, and saw grandpa Matthews and Fred.

W. B. Backus has of late received communications from the Indian depart ment at WTashington,also elsewhere, giv ing information and expressing senti ments that are extremely gratifiying to him and encouraging to those interested in the growth and development of the Genoa Industrial school.

He was in formed that there would be upwards of 22,000 to expend this season in new buildings, improvements, etc., about the premises. Genoa Leader. The many friends of Dr. L. B.

Stack thr Flax. S. H. Stevens, Hax inspector of the Chicago lniard of trade, has issued a circular setting forth the reasons why tiax should be stacked. Briefly stated they are: neglect or slight delay in housing, depreciates the value, and might be the cause of losing the crop; the solubility of tlax seed in water is such that its exposure to rain, however slight, causes decreased weight ami lessened value, while heavy and contin ued rains have frequently destroyed all that was left unprotected; the reason why the western cultivator of tlax aiinu ally breaks down the tlax seed market by throwing thereon in sixty days one half the crop, and that largely unfit for storage, is the ruinous habil of thresh ing from the field, for to thresh is to sell; well dried tlax when stacked is reasonably secure, and is in position to yield a good return for lalior. The sweat incidental to threshing passes the seed to that indispensable condition necessary to stoiage, and the seed and straw are not broken t-o much as when threshed out of the field. We are in debted to A. C. Pickett for a glance at the circular. The suggest ions are good. That letter. As there have been a good many differ ent repoits in regard to a letter lately received by 1.

You are too far gone on the road to Rum and Ruin to heed or take part in the good work that is now going on in Neb.

D. is upon yon! The battle will be hot: turn over to the good cause and your children will call you blessed. You are almost on the black list, but before it is too late you can and must reform.

It is from an article entitled "The typewriter girls of Omaha and their marvellous work:" "Miss Carrie Dale clicks the typewriter at the tele phone exchange.

Wednesday evening last alwut S o'clock, a switchman in the Union Pa cific vards named Ben Vocht, was ratal ly injured, on the track in front of the Fleming.
