All the fire departments of the city were called out Hon. J. W. Love, U. S. consul at San Salvador, C. A., started hist week from his home in Fremont for Ids post. He expects to return in October. One of the delegates at the Minneap olis convention will be a full-blooded Indian from Oklahoma, the first rf his race to secure a seat in such a conven tion. Speakinq of his son, rich by inheri tance, the late Simon Cameron, said suggestively; "Yes, Don has many ad vantages, but I had ono which over balanced them all poverty." The largest congregation in America is St. Stanislaus Kostka in Chicago which has thirty thousand communi cants. Tho number of attendants at the several masses every Sunday frequently exceeds 15,000. Thebe are more than 500,000 almond trees actually bearing in the United States, and there are hundreds of thou sands of bearing cocoanut trees, so say the census takers. What will not this country do in productions! The Germans have seemingly accom plished the feat of successfully navi gating the air and taking observations of Russian fortifications, at a safe dis tance above, whence they could throw an electric light from their balloons and make their examination at their leisure. A disastrous cyclone visited the vi cinity of Petersburg, Va., Friday night. Barns and fences wero levele.1 to the ground and large trees torn up by the roots and twisted into all conceivable shapes. A number of people were killed, and the damage to property and vegeta tion will be enormous. Mtss Adklaiok Uttek has boon ap pointed clork of the circuit court of tho United States for tho western district of Missouri at Kansas City tho first case on record where a woman has been ap pointed clerk of a circuit court. Miss Utter has been a very efficient deputy clerk for several years. The will of the late Walt Whitman hows the entire estate, oxclusive of royalties from writings, . amounts to abont $3,500. An effort is to be made to raise by popular subscription a suffi cient sum to preserve Whitman's resi dence intact, so that the homo will bo always open to his admirers who visit the city. The state executive committee of the Georgia state alliance Thursday adopt ed, unanimously, a resolution demand ing that all alliances which have en tered the people's party movement must rescind their action promptly or surren der their charters. This means that in the south the alliance organization must not hurt the democrats. In the United States, there are more than 250,000 olive trees, producing fruit equal to the best Mediterranean vark tie There are more than 500,000 bear ing twig", plants, 200,000 bearing lemon trees, 4,000,000 orange trees and 21,000, ' 000 pineapples. And the value of trop ical and semi-tropical fruits grown under tto American flag is nearly $20,000,000. i The war in Wyoming between the stockmen and the settlers has resulted in the death of Dr. Watkins, Champion and Ray at the hands of the stockmen and the capture by federal troops of forty-five men, with rifles, etc., of the 6tockmen. Twenty-five of these men were Texas cowboys. Th. Nast, tho great cartoonist, is at work on tho Chicago Inter Ocean. One of his most striking pictures represents Cleveland and Hill as prize-fighters, Hill landing a blood-bringer on Cleveland's cheek, while the democratic party repre sented - a donkey, is plunging down the fails -'That party prize fight about tho hadow while the substance van ishes." The Sisseton reservation in the north eastern corner of South Dakota was opened to settlers last Friday. The rush Wtis something wonderful. A thousand men had place in the line of filers. Three thousand dollars was paid for the first place in line, the party hold ing it having remained at tho door of the land office sinco the proviouB Satur day. The 12Gth place sold for 8200. It is estimated that 3,000 located Friday. A letter from one of the Hood suffer ers in the Tom Bigbeo river district, tnlil in Kim tile nero dialect, is most pathetic. Tho cattle, says he, took to tho high places, and for sustenance be gan to devour the branches of trees. Chickens flew to tho tree tops and re mained thero for three days, until, weak from starvation, they fell into the wa ters. He says that no estimate can be mado of tho number of lives lost, but makes a rough guess that from Satur day until Tuesday night 200 negroes havo perished. Senator Paddock's good judgment was again demonstrated in his opposi tion to tho appropriation of $100,000 by tho general government 'toward the en tertainment of visitors to the G. A. B. encampment at Washington next fall. Tho committee promised to raiso $75, 000, and it should come from Washing ton or tho District of Columbia, and not from Uncle Samuel's treasury. Lin coln, this state, was in tho contest against Washington, for tho plum, and if she had got it, sho would havo had to provide tho means, and why not Wash ington? Tariff Pictures. New York Press: In ISKti, under the free trade administration of President Cleveland, shipbuilding in tho United States amounted to 95,453 tons. It was tho lowest point in shipbuild ing from 1832 until the present timo. Ill tho last fiscal year to Juno 30, 1891, our shipbuilding amounted to 294,122 tons. Tho reciprocity clauses of tho McKm ley bill havo been encouraging to ship building, for the postal subsidy act was not yet in operation when the last record was mado. Jack McCaltj is again talked of as a republican candidate for governor. Tho republican party of Nebraska must be very careful this year in tho selection of candidates. If tho very best men of the party in the stato are selected, men, true and tried in the interests of tho people, men who havo tho nervo to enforce the will of La people, tho republican party will i .ive an excollent show for success " around. Otherwise, wo shall havo to Stand upon that other shaky ground of hope, viz: that tho opposition may make greater blunders than ourselves. It is trno that thero havo been many exam ples of this in the past, but it is a poor policy of action upon which to rely. The Seattle Press-Times of April 6th gives a tabular statement of the registered-letter business of thirty of the largest cities of tho United States for tho year 1891, and tho increase over the previous year. This table shows: Seattle, total amount of registry fees collected, $2,887.10; increase over 1890,30.43 per cent. Omaha, same, $2,44S.50; increase, 24.17 per cent. St. Paul, Minn., same, $2.(S9.10; increase, .81 per cent. A com parison between Tacoma and Seattle, as shown by tho recent olections, will be interesting to some of our readers who aro keeping track of tho relative merits and growth of these two cities: Tacoma vote 0,982: Seattle vote 8,291. Tho total registration of the two cities was: Ta coma 9,00."; Seattle 10,811. Capt. Aaron D. Yoctjm of Hastings, was, on Friday last, sentenced to the penitentiary for one year, for killing Myron Van Fleet, and on Saturday a telegram addressed to Mrs. Ybcum, an nounced tho fact that Governor Boyd had pardone 1 him. The governor states that ho did not think the cause of good government would be served by Capt. Ybcnm's incarceration, and neither did ho believothat his full and free pardon would lend any encouragement to crime. "Indeed." he said, "I hope this case may servo as a deterrent to that class of people who esteem -u woman's chastity Um lightly or who too carelessly trifle with a woman's good name." "The man who. as tho head of a family, would shirk the responsibilities of that head ship, is unworthy to bo considered a man.' It is rumored that several new houses of prostitution are being opened in Schuyler. This is entirely wrong. In stead or their increasing, they should decrease in numbers and the city's offi cials should see to it that the evil is taken from our midst. They can only le wiped out by a vigorous war which should bo waged against them by tho newspapers and those who have" the city's authority in their hands. The Sun is most positively against the ill famed institutions from first to last and will ueo its utmost efforts to see that they aro banished from tho city. The Journal is glad to see that its contemporary at Schuyler has a con science in this matter. There are some editors in Nebraska who assume to say that the business is a legitimate one, if not entirely commendable, but there are none such that we know of who are re publicans, though these should not be considerations of party politics. Thi: republican congressional district cr-. si.:ion is to be held tomorrow at irorfolk. Possibly it will be interesting to know what tho inner currents mav indicate as to tho drift of republican sen timent for a candidate in the coming congressional campaign. The Journal believes that this would be just as good a time as any for the everyday-working I element of the party to name a candi date for whom we can sill vote with en thusiasm, a man dovoted heart and soul to tho building up of tho interests of this district and state, and not unmind ful of what is demanded of the congress man by tho well-informed artisans, the intelligent farmers, and the patriotic professional tutu the country over, when they turn their attention to public affairs. Do let us look around a little and find man who knows and who will do the right thing. Too many ninny-hammers are sent to congress. It is the man who has been doing some good thinking that is listened to with attention down at Washington. Democratic Delegate. Gov.

TnAT reciprocity is not a ''sham," as some democrats havo declared, is shown by the latest report of the bureau of sta tistics. Under the agreement with Spain the reduced duty on flour to Cuba went into effect January 1, and in two months our exports of flour to that island increased in value, as compared with tho Bamo months of the provious year, from $77,000 to $155,000. This was a single item of our export trade, one which had been for years controlled by the Spanish government for tho benefit of Spanish producers, who enjoyed the benefit of discriminating duties and dues. Tho reciprocity arrangement with Spain for the benefit of tho West Indian possessions covers a good many other items besides flour, and tho ex ports of all these show an increase amounting in tho aggregate for eight mouths ending February 29 during the first two months of which the reciproc ity agreement was not in operation - to ovor $1,200,000. The new commercial policy of the country is working right along, to the confusion and discomfiture of its opponents. Omaha Bee. Who's All night? Ed. Journal: -The Argus of the 8th inst. contains an article under tho above heading. It pretends to refute my com munication in the Journal of the 0th, headed "Horse-6e"nse or Mule-sense" which title had 1k.-cii taken partly from the Argus itself. Its reply logins with an untruth, and goes on the same way to the end. If the Argus had loen honest, it would have given its raiders the whole of its oppnent's piece, and not mutilated its heading and picked out a seemingly weak point. But it was evidently afraid to do so, fearing some of its read ers might get a little more light than would be profitable for tbe Argus. Per haps in its case ''Ignorance is the moth er of devotion." If it had published the whole of my article its readers could have judged for themselves who used the fewest arguments and the most epithets. But it does really contain ono brand new idea. It aspires toihe honor of a re ligious reformer. Good! So, when its early demise comes it can claim the crown of religious martyrdom! Before I enter upon the consideration of this claim, I will state a few indisputable facts. There are prosperous men in all class es of society and there aro also others far from being successful. This is the case not only among the honest tillers of tho soil, but also among mechanics, manu facturers, merchants and professional men and newspaper men also. Who will deny this? But who is to blame when a man spends his money iu a saloon or plays the "walking delegate" or runs around tho country talking alliance in stead of walking behind his plow or cul tivator, or when he carelessly and reck lessly runs into debt, or when he mort gages his farm to buy silk dresses for his wife, and sealskin cloaks and pian os for his daughters, and fast horses and buggies for his sons, all on credit? There are lazy men, drinking men, easy-going men, wasteful men, careless men, incapable men, squandering men, in all classes of human society, and there are also able, industrious, abstaining economic, saving, wisely-planning, care ful men, and they are not the big guns, the gassing and blowing ones, they are the men who mind their own business, who stretch themselves according to the size of their own blanket, and pull up their knees when it happens to be short. Ah, brother Saunders, they are the men who also honestly pay for their newspa per, and are not to blame if the printing office is mortgaged over and over and fi nlly sold by the sheriff. A friend of the writer, a highly re spected farmer who owns one of the best large farms in the county mid who has raised a numerous and well-trained fam ily, told me: "I have never run into debt. When I had no flour, I with my family, used corn meal and ate mush." My friend began here about twenty years ago with nothing but a number of hun gry little mouths, and there aro a great many such. And now for brother Bixby's claim as a religious reformer! If talking to men just what they like to hear, if breeding dissatisfaction, if hatching out envy and hatred between different classes of hu man society, if preparing the way for civil war even by stirring up class against class, if laying the blame of per sonal neglect, laziness, want of economy, incapability and consequent poverty, squalor and misery indiscriminately upon the industrious, saving, careful, and therefore well-to-do ones if all that is re ligious reform, then hurrah for the Ar gus. But otherwise, no hurwh. Yes, brother Saunders, religious re form is needed. Every man is by nature a monopolist as soon and as long as he can be one. Human selfishness is the first-born and the chief characteristic of the whole family of mortals. I am for bridling it anywhere and everywhere and always. But devils don't drive out devils. Evils don't cure evils. Reforms are needed; trusts and gigantic corpora- tions for squeezing out every drop of the poor like tbe juice out of a lemon, ought to be abolished and exterminated, but all parties are iu favor of that, and of one ! thing the writer is convinced, i. e., that the doctrine of the Argus, selfishness against selfishness, will not "fill the bill." May wiser heads than that of tho writ er and that of brother Bixby and of brother Saunders accomplish it! To reform society, the individuals composing it must be changed, and then everything will be All RiGnT. NEBRASKA NOTKS. Mrs. Andrus Hanna, wife of a farmer near Nebraska City, attempted suicide, Friday, by cutting her throat with a razor. Fifty Sioux Indian bucks, and a num ber of squaws and papooses left Rush ville Saturday for Enrope to join the Wild West show. While watching a chemical experiment at tho Alma high school, Miss Jessie Mitchell inhaled the vapor of burning acid and was so overcome that her life was despaired of for a time. S. J. Mason, traveling man for Linin ger & Metcalf, with driver, buggy and runaway horses, went over a fifteen-foot bank into a pool of water Friday. Ma son had his left shoulder sprained. During the recent storm the roof of the sod school house at Butka, Loup county, caved in. School 'was in session, but the presence of mind of the teacher iu ordering the scholars to drop over towards the wall probably prevented loss of life. Saturday afternoon while the three youngest children cf Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Crites of Central City were playing in a cornfield, the clothes of little Lotta caught tiro, perhaps from th em born of a fire which Mr. Sax ton had started early in the day. The child died the following day. The 3-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank lleluman met with a fright ful death Friday morning at their home near Bismarck. The folks wero outside doing the chores and upon entering tho house found a charred mass iiKn tho floor that was twitching it was tho little girl, who, in some manner, ignited her clothing and was burned to death, and was writhing in her agonies. Wnshiugton Letter. From our regular convHnili?nt. The latest democratic scheme to aid in throwing the oloction of president into the house of representatives is shrewd, but it will not work, for tho very simple reason that tho republican leaders see through it and will take caro that it is made equally clear to tho voters in the states concerned. At a consultation attended by Senators Gor man, Brico and Hill, and some other prominent democrats it was decided that it would greatly strengthen tho chances of tho third party to carry, (of course with tho assistance of the solid demo cratic vote), four or five of tho north western states, if it could carry an equal number of southern states. Carrying out the idea of that confer ence, southern democrats of prominence have "filled up" every newspaper man that they could get at with their fears that the third party may carry from four to seven of tho southern states, and lots of rot has been telegraphed from here concerning this alleged new phase of the presidential campaign. New nothing! Thero is as much probability that the electoral votes of any southern state, with the exception of tho two Vir ginias, either or both of which may be carried by the republicans, will bo cast for a third-party candidate as thero is that Texas will go republican. It is Bimply a dodge to try to catch republi can voters who belong to the farmers' organization in tho northwestern states. Only three democrats voted against the bill for the admission of cotton ties and bagging free of duty, which was passed by tho house Saturday afternoon, and yet it is one of the most illogical aa well as sectional bills ever liefore con gress. It is a direct blow at ono estab lished American industry tho iron hoop and band mills and it would, if it be came a law, create obstructions in the path of those who are trying to establish on a large scale the manufacture of jute bagging in the United States. Notwithstanding the covert opposition of nine-tenths of the democratic sena tors and the open opposition and sneers of a few of them, the very men too that conscience should havo kept silent, the bill appropriating $100,000 towards help ing to entertain tho members of the G. A. R., at the coming encampment in this city was passed by the senate. Only ten democrats had the nerve to cast their votes against the bill when the test came, aud every one of them represents ex-confederate constituencies. Hero is the list: Berrv and Jonnnnf ArVnnaua- Coke and Mills of Texas; Blackburn of Kentucky; Bate of Tennessee; Lrby, the so-called farmer's alliance senator, from South Carolina; Colquitt of Georgia; Pngh of Alabama, and Vest of Missouri. The world's fair congressional' com mittees have been giving hearing both for and against the opening of the ox position on Sunday, and as far as the arguments go, tho opposition to Sunday opening has decidedly tho beHt of it. What congress will do, or whether it wid do anything is a matter of doubt; it would much prefer escaping responsi bility by doing nothing, but tho pres sure is becoming so strong that somo action may have to be taken. Real estate speculators are everywhere a shrewd lot but those of Washington should berated above them all; they have made millions by unloading ground bought for a song upon the government at fancy prices, and they are still at it. At tho last session of nonm-rca n i.;u appropriating the money to purchase a site for tho Washington city post office on the south side of Penn. avenue the most disreputable part of the city, be came a law," and indue time the afore said speculators received about three times as much as the square about the most unproductive property in town- was worth, and now engineers are searching for a solid foundation, which tney Bay can only be had upon forty-foot piles, and even then it will be necessary to cement the entire bottom and sides of the cellar, and to provide the building with a powerful pumping outfit to keep it dry. A bill has been introduced in congress to build a new patent office in the same locality, presumably on he same sort of foundation, at a cost of $3,500,000. Now a word about -that locality. Strangers to Washington have heard so much about Pennsylvania avenue that it is natural for them to suppose that it would be a perfectly proper place to erect costly buildings, but as a matter of fact it isn't. Why? It is too low less than three feet above ordinary high 1 9 m 1 S 4V1 dlfl ftwfe B fr AAn Jl A .m .m. A A b biuc, auu iw uitiupuess uuu cuusequmib uuhealthfulness have caused it to be abandoned for higher ground. All of Washington's largest business houses, most of which wero once on tho avenue, are now on F and G streets, and the loss of business and consequent lowering of rentals have caused the forming of n powerful lobby, aided by both of Wash ington's daily papers, which own plants on the avenue, to work bills through congress locating punuc uuiiuings in this swampy section. Congress should beware of the scheme. e Chicago, Milwaukee fc St. Paul the only line running solid vest- d, electric lighted auu steam lieated between tho Missouri river and Chicago, consisting of new palnce sleep ing cars, elegant free reclining chair cars, luxurious coaches and the finest dining cars in tho world.

After that a e culiar rough cough is developed, which is followed by the croup. Tho time to act is when the child first becomes hoarse; a few doses of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy will prevent the attack. Even after a rough cough has appeared the disease may bo prevented by using this remedy as directed. It has never been known to fail. 25 cont, 50 cent and $1 bottles for sale by C. E.
