Uncle Jekky Rusk ought to feel good.
When ho came into the ciibinet he
found one of the most important ex
ports of tho United States pork
practically shut out of every desirable
European market and now, since Spain
has let in our pork, there are only a very
few comparatively insignificant countries
(from a trado standpoint) that do not
gladly receivo all the pork wo wish to
send them. Perhaps this state of
things is due to Uncle Jerry more than
to any other one person.
A New York Taper TclU One.
General Charles Van Wyck, than
whom there is not a more genial gentle
man or shrewd politician in Nebraska,
was an agreeable caller at this office on
Friday afternoon. Speaking of his so
ciability the following story of former
days recently published in the east is
apt and appropriate: "When Colonel Van
- Wyck was running for congress in tho
Fifteenth New York district there was
a certain Irishman who steadfastly re
fused to give the old soldier any en
couragement. The Colonel was greatly
surprised, therefore, when Pat informed
him on election day that he had con
cluded to vote for him.
"Glad to hear it, glad to hear it," eaid
the Colonel; "I rather thought j-oti were
.against me, Patrick."
'Well, sir," said Patrick, 4-I wuz, and
. when ye stud by me pig-pen and talked
that day ye didn't budge me a hair's
breadth, sir, but after ye wuz gone away
1 came to thinking how ye. racned yer
hand over the fence and scratched the
pig on the back till he laid down with
the pleasure of it, and I made up me
mind that whin a rale kernel was as
sociable as that, I wa'n't the man to
tojvote agin him." Our Dumb Ani
mals. A l'incli or Snuff for "The Argus."'
A New Haven gentleman lecently ad
vertized that ho would give bags of
flour to needy families, provided intoxi
cating drinks or tobaeco were not used
by any member of the family applying.
He deposited 50 with tho Uuion Trust
Company as a guaranty of his good
faith. No application at all was re
ceived. Another: The Scientific American
savs: "A well known business man. re
ferring to the success of his firm.Tsaid:
We attend to our own businees and
' nothing else. You never hear of any of
us being on the road or out driving.
We do not go to the theatre. We have
no outside business, no ventures or
speculations in oil, wild lands, patents
or stock. What money we have we put
.into our house. We tako care of our
business and our business takes care of
ns. We keep abreast of the times.' "
Are not farms-even surer to take care
of the men that take care of them
than any even tho best lines of busi
ness do of "businessmen?
Still another: "Isn't tho Argus amy
ing a good many good new things?" one
man asks another. Yeeybat the trouble
is the good thingaare not new, and the
new ones are not good," is the true reply.
And still another: Isn't it queer that
the Argus again and again refers to the
articles of The Journal's correspondent
"All Bight" and heaps epithets upon .
tliat lnonemjive wiu nuuuooiwju owiuc,
and still has not manliness and honesty
enough to copy his writings so that its
readers might see and judge for them
selves, or was that writer right when he
said something like this: "Does the
Argus suppose its readers to be ignor
ant and that ignorance on their part is
devotion to the Argus?" We think
better of the Argus readers than that,
and therefore would like to see it pass
around among them the
"Snuffbox."
A CYCLONE IN OHIO.
TOWNSHIPS DEVASTATED NEAh
SPRINGFIELD.
Crops Greatly Dasaaged and Trees Tore
Up by tbe Hoots No Lom of Life Be-ported-Another
Broken Iee la Louis
iana Hundreds Homeless la Illinois.
Springfield. Ohio, June 6. Word
has reached here of tme of the most de
structive cyclones that ever visited this
section of the country. The disaster
occurred yesterday afternoon in Moore
field, Harmony, and Springfield twon
ships, and the damage to crops, forests,
farm buildings, and orchards will run
up into the tens of thousands.
During a heavy thunder storm two
black clouds approached from the
west and came together seemiugly on
John Reazell's farm, about four miles
from this city, in Springfield township.
A wind at once arose, the electrical
disturbance increased, and the country
for miles around was lighted up. A
heavy downpour accompanied the
storm.
The cyclone was half s mile wide
and cut down trees like a knife and
literally tore the corn, wheat, and oats
out of the ground.
The section of the country where the
cyclone occurred is noted for its sugar
camps, hundreds of acres being planted
in sugar maple trees and these were
destroyed. Lewis Huffman's sugar
camp was completely demolished.
Jacob YeazelPs barn completely
wrecked. An orchard belonging to
George Nicholson was ruined and
fences and outbuildings by the score
were laid low.
ANOTHER BROKEN LEVUE.
Fifty-foot Crevasse Below New Orleans
Bed River Rislny;.
New Orleans, June . The levee at
Belle Chase plantation on the right
bank, fifteen miles below the city.caved
in this morning and in a few minutes
a crevasse fifty-four feet wide six feet
deep was raging. The New Hope
crevasse is now over one hundred feet
wide and twelve feet tleep. The par
ish of St. James is nearly flooded and
the water has reached the Texas &
Pacific tracks, but it is not of suffi
cient depth to stop travel. A
crib work has been built around
the crevasse and the railroad officials
have hopes that they will close it by
piling in sacks filled with dirt The
river gauge to-day reads 17.5 feet, the
highest point it has ever reached. The
old Red river is again rising and the
heavy rains in the upper Mississippi
valley will bring the water higher
still. The wharf from Can&l to Pledras
streets in this city is under six inches
of water and steamboat business is
greatly impeded.
CLOSE ON THE ROBBERS.
United States Marshal Madsden and
I?artyIIave a Desperate Fl(bt Ahead.
Ponca, I. T., June 6. News was re
ceived here from Deputy United States
Marshal Madsden, who is on tbe trail
of the train robbers, that he is
close to the bandits and expects
to corner them in a very short time.
There are ten men in the band and all
heavily armed and they will give a
desperate fight. Their trail leads into
the worst part ot the territory and the
robbers will uudoubtedlv be irreatly
assisted by Indians to hide and escape
from their pursuers. There is no doubt
that they arc the DaUons who robbed
the train in almost the same spot a
year ago.
Moore Will Go Free.
London, Jane 0. The authorities at
Scotland Yard have informed the
American consul that they cannot ar
rest William Lord Moore, who, it is
said, has swindled many Americans
through his claim agency, unless some
of his American victims incur the cost
of coming to London to prosecute him.
The American consulate has for along
time been ti-ying to break up tho
swindling business carried on by Moore,
who has been in the habit of deluding
a certain class of Americans that they
are heirs to immense properties and es
tates in England that he will procure
for them upon the payment of a com
paratively small sum. Of course, the
claims are entirely mythical, but this
has not prevented Moore from making
a very fat thing out of ic
Three Millions lor a J Ins.
Milwaukee, June 2. The Chapin
mine at Iron Mountain, one of the big
gest iron producers in Michigan, has

authority to be over 83,000,000. The
capital stock of the mine is 82,000,000,
though the property is said by experts
to be wortL much more The transit
company's stock is 8!, 500,000, and this

ot Her Faithless Lover and Herselt
St. Louis, June 6. Last night Mag
gie Sullivan, a domestic, sent a note to
a former lover named Peter McCreech,
requesting him to meet her at a point
about two blocks from his home.
When McCreech met the woman she
upbraided him for deserting her and
marrying another woman. After a f e w
angry words Miss Sullivan drew a re
volver and fired two shots at McCreech,
one of the bullets lodging in his brain
and inflicting a probably fatal wound.
The womai then fired a bullet into her
right temple, killing herself almost in
stantly. Hundred or People Homeless.

Destruction from Artajr Wersas.
Columbus, Ind., June 6. In the
eastern park f this country the army
worsas in great numbers have made
their appearance and are doing great
damage to hayfields. So numerous are
these worms that in some instances as
many as ten acres of growing hay is
destroyed in a day. They come from

Fe Kxpress Bobbery.
Tout Jervis, N.Y., June 4. A fiead
ish assault wa committed yesterday
upon Misa Lena Mahon, the daughter
of JohnMahon of this village. The
crime was commuiea wj "
called Bob Jackson. It was witnessed
by a number of girl, and also by two
young negroes, who would have inter
fered in the girl's behalf, but they
were kept at bay by a revolver. Jack
son, after his fearful crime, fled, leav
ing his victim in an insensible condi
tion, and with injuries which will
probably prove fatal.
A posse was organized and the brute
was captured about nine miles from
Port Jervis. On the way to this village
Jackson confessed the crime and im
plicated one William Foley, a white
man, whom he claimed waa in the eon'
spiracy to ruin Miss MeMahon. On his
arrival at the lockup e waa
seized by a mob. The police
endeavored to protect him, but
their efforts were useless. A noose
was adjusted about his neck, and he
was strung up to a tree in the presence
of a howling mob of over a thousand
people. For over an hour the body
hung suspended there.
The mob is looking for Foley, who
has been paying attentions to Miss Me
Mahon against her parents' wisnea,
and if he is found another lynching is
more than probable.

We want every mother to know that
croup can be prevented. True croup
never appears without a warning. The
first symptom is hoarseness; then the
child appears to have taaen a cold or a
cold may have accompanied the hoarse
ness from tho start. After that a pe
culiar rough cough is developed, which
is followed' by the croup. The 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 be prevented by using

ise, and who runs seeral peddling wag

wounds. He applied it only three times
aud the sore was completely healed.
