FEHItUAltY ir. 1B93. A distinct earthquake shock was felt in Fremont county, Colo., last Friday night. At Marseilles, France,Thursday, thero were twelve deaths from the prevalent choleraic complaint. C. V. GALiiAonmi of Omaha has been nppomted a cadet to the United States Military Academy at West Point. It would bo well for our legislators to investigate the history of the State Board of Arbitration of Massachusetts. Thero now is a board. It is said that the Yanderbilts have secured possession of enough Union Pacific stock to givo them a majority when the annual meeting occurs in April. Miss Bessie Kat of Nemaha City swallowed a piece of chicken that was too big for her throat, and it took two doc tors to savo her life, which they did by forcing the meat into her stomach. A son of Fred. Smoker, Osceola, while working around a horse-power corn sheller, caught his right foot in the machinery and hurt it so badly that it had to bo amputated just above the ankle. The latest cabinet slato of the incom ing president is Gresham, secretary of state; Carlisle, treasury; Lamont, war; Wilson S. Bissell of New York, postmas ter general, and it is said that all have accepted. Cod. Boiieut G. Inoeusolij delivered n great lecture at the Broadway theater, Now York, Sunday night, on Abraham Lincoln, "the grandest figure of the fiercest civil war, the gentlest memory of our world." Onu election laws will not bo complete until wo have a better way of appointing judges, and a more sensible way of count ing, say onco an hour during tho day, instead of all at tho end of a long day when men are sleepy and tired. Odd lino democrats are not at all pleased with Gresham to bo at tho head of tho cabinoL They refuse to bo com forted by the statement that in tho reorganization of parties, which Mr. Cleveland has in mind, it is the republi can party that ho wishes to drive out of existence. Tun Fremont Herald says: "It is for tunato that senators Babcock, Mattes and North got into line as straight dem ocrats, oven if tho conversion did oocur after they voted lo mako Correll presi dent of tho senate." Of course, "straight" democracy, in this instance, moans help ing the populists elect a U. S. senator. "Canada sees President Harrison's lit tle gun and has, after tho example of Dave Crocket's coon, asked permission to come down before ho shoots. Tho dominion council has issued an order withdrawing all discriminative rates on tho Wolland canal. This is as it should be even if it is a trifle late." So says an exchange. The Globe Democrat of St. Louis is eminently correct in saying that "there are obvious and forcible reasons why the next secretary of state should bo a thor ough, aggressive, star-spangled Ameri can." It might have added to this, as being appropriate and timely counsel to tho president-elect, that Bayard is not that man. The Athens. Georgia, Banner vouches for tho truth of a lengthy account of a child in that stale, 11 years old, very littlo larger than when it was born, and without a bono in its entire body. It was born thus, has never talked and takes no notice or its surroundings. It is fed on milk and water every fifteen minutes, and its parents are very devot ed to it. As Gov. Pesnoyek's reply to an adjutant-general in Oregon for tho loan of a few state cannon to boom the inaugura tion March 4, has become somewhat famous already, wo give it in full: "No permission will bo given to firo state cannon over tho inauguration of a Wall street plutocrat as president of tho United States." If the governor really thought there was a difference oven among democratic presidents, ho might have rejoiced that tho government still lives notwithstanding. Senator Ghaham, in discussing the proposed measure to select presidential electors by congressional districts, said that in his opinion thero was ne-er a Tanker'' bill proposed in the history of the stato. It was a bill, ho said, hatched in tho privacy of the democratic national hejidquarters for tho express purpose of being introduced in northern states. Such a measure was never heard of in a southern stato. The bill was never thought of until it was hatched up in Michigan for tho express purpose of dis rupting the republican party of that state and it has been introduced for that purpose in Nebraska. Down at Omaha tho county commis sioners are looking after the revenues a little more closely than has been custo mary, in fact the people all around the horizon are asking a great number of " Bearching questions these limes. County Judge Eller says that tho fees for mar riages have never been turned into tho treasury, and he doesn't propose to start an innovation. Commissioner Stenberg says: ;'And we hold that the fees re ceived for marrying people come under thi6 provision just the same as probating '.wills and all other work done by the '"judge. The county pays him for tho .time he serves on tho bench and it is - only by virtue of his official position that he has the authority to perform mar- - . riagea. When he goes out of office his . authority to do this will depart from mm and we maintain that the fees belong to '. the office. Another thing, the marriages are for the most part performed during - " court hours and ho is taken from the .- bench to .do the work. Work on the I 'bench is thus interrupted for the good of the pocket of the judge. The fees .. belong to the county and should go to r " the.county. The judge has no right to them any more than he has to any other : .fees irtucn come into tne orace." Tiie . : number of marriages performed last year ". by the judge was SCO, and estimating at an average of five dollars, this would be ..- 31,300, a neat littlo sum. If all the V"- county judges, past and present, and '; prospective, shall be held to this rule, irhat a shelling out there would be! Gov. Hogg of Texas has rebuked tho spirit of lawlessness at Paris, his very mildest sentences being: "The public murder committed at Paris is a disgrace to the state. Its atrocity, inhumanity and sickening effect upon tho people at largo cannot be obscured by reference to the savage act of the criminal himself in taking the life of an innocent child." The most significant part of the governor's message, so far as the general public is concerned, is that in this same neigh borhood, within tho past twelve months three other men who had committed no crimes, were hanged. Their presence in the community, the governor says, was offensive, or perhaps menacing to the pleasure and equanimity of the band of murderers who took their lives. He also says that thero have been other instances in Texas where innocent men have been executed by mobs, and no punishment has been possible. Tho condition has grown to this, that if enough men in n community choose to defy the law, they go on in their nefarious actions at will. He hopes tho legislature will not allow this condition to continue unchallenged. The Journal has no sickly sentimetality on this subject, believing that the worst of earth is too good a place for such fiends incarnate as tho man who was burned alivo proved himself to be; but just such villians as he was, are trained up by deeds of blood and violence and cruelty and cowardice such as tho ten thousand were guilty of who tortured tho man to death, and tried to drown his cries of agony by their demoniac yells; just such lecherous scoundrels as ho was are being "cultured and developed" every day in the small towns and great cities of this country where commerce in sin is counted a respectable business, or at tho worst a necessary evil. Commu nities are like individuals,- -what is in the blood, will appear, at last, at the surface. So far as great bodies of men are concerned, if they lose their respect for law, thero is no means of governing them except by brute force alone. Every good citizen must see that there is but one safeway: enact good laws, and exact obedience to them. Mary and Kate Grabenhorst of Iowa ought to bo immortalized in verse for their deed of valor last week, and the younger (sixteen years old), should have a double portion of praise. Five miles from Ogden, a tramp named Joo Ross secreted himself in Fred. Grabenhorst's barn, along with two other hard charac ters, miners of the neighborhood named Hamilton and Lloyd, their purpose being to kill Grabenhorst when ho should come to the barn, then murder tho three women at tho houso and securo S200 or S300 supposed to bo in tho house. Gra benhorst came to tho barn and was shot, tho shot taking effect in tho arm. Boss tried to fire again, but his seven-shooter missed fire, and he then went to clubbing Grabenhorst over tho head. Ho cried for help and this brought his wifo and two daughters, school teachers, rushing to tho rescue. The older girl grabbed Boss by tho wrist, while the other, sixteen years old, took tho revolver from him and began beating him over tho head with it. An exciting struggle followed; tho moth er was thrown clear over a fence, but the two girls overpowered the tramp and bound him tight with a rope, and the youngest girl guarded him while the other went to neighbors for help. Tho youngest girl was with difficulty restrain ed from clubbing Boss to death after she had conquered him. Tho three men are in jail, and Ross says that tho other two planned tho attack and he was compelled to carry it out. All three, he says, woro in tho barn from .') in the morning until 7 in tho evening, when tho attack was made. If more girls were trained ath letes and "school teachers," tho tramps would have fewer ictories than they now do. Fire broke out in tho f urnnco room of tho Continental hotel at Centerville, Iowa, Thursday morning, and it was with difficulty that tho guests escaped alive. Those on tho first and second tloors got out at tho windows. Will Hale, traveling salesman, jumped from the third lloor to tho frozen ground, had three ribs broken and a thumb torn off. Samuel Lowis of Greely, la., was cre mated. Mrs. Mclvce, tho landlady, was on the first lloor but went to tho third, and tho flames cutting off her escape, she jumped; being of 2f0 pounds weight sho fractured nearly every bono in her body. Sho was picked up unconscious aiul'died Thursday afternoon. Tho loss )f tho building was 28,000, insurance 14,(100. A kon of James Lemon at University Place. Lincoln, was shot by his older brother, who snapped a revolver at him, thinking it was not loaded. Tho ball took effect in tho abdomen, and will probably cause death. Wnhiiiton letter. I From our n-gnlnr correspondent.! Tho President has heard the official proposition made by tho commis sioners from tho now provisional govern ment of Hawaii for tho annexation of that country to the United States, and is now, with his usual thoroughness and care, studying the question, in all its bearings, in order to mako up his mind whethor ho will take auy steps towards annexation, make any recommendations to congress, or leave the whole matter for tho incoming administration and congress. Before tho commissioners arrived it was thought probable, indeed it was informally agreed that a treaty by which the United states took tho repub lican government of Hawaii under its protection would bo about the proper thing for the present, leaving annexa tion to follow, as it unquestionably would havo done in a few years. But when tho ultimatum of tho commission ersannexation or nothing was receiv ed tlso situation was changed. Tho President and all of his cabinet are favorable to annexation, but as it would havo to bo preceded by congressional legislation, and tho life of tho present administration and congress is so nearly spent it may be deemed advisable by tho administration not to begin what would probably have to bo ended by the new congress and administration. A decision will probably bo reached in a few days. The Hawaiian flag -red, white and blue stripes, with a red cross in tho corner is flying from the top of tho hotel at which tho Hawaiian commissioners aro quartered. There is nothing foreign looking about tho members of this com mission. A determined effort is being made to secure some silver legislation on a com promise basis before tho session closes. Dan Lamont and Don Dickinson are hero in tho interest of the new adminis tration, and to submit to the silver men several propositions for a compromise, all of them involving a suspension of the purchase of silver by the government. They say that if their efforts are not successful an extra session of congress will certainly be called. The bill authorizing the expenditure of 50,000 in the preparation of an ex hibit for tho World's Fair, showing the progress of tho colored race since 18G3, has been favorably reported to the house, and the favorable manner in which it is spoken of by members indicates that it may pass, but, owing to the crowded condition of the calendar, action on no measure is certain. Probably no single action of the Pres ident during his entire term has been more talked about than the nomination of Judge Howell E. Jackson, of Tennes- J fee, an able jurist, but an uncompromis ing uemocrat, io succeea uie jaie justice Lamar on tho bench of theU. S. Supreme Court The President had 6tated to a number of gentlemen bis intention to nominate a republican, and such was his intention until the day before he nomi nated Judge Jackson, and tho cause of his change of mind was a notification he received to the effect that twelve repub lican senators would vote with tho dem ocrats against the confirmation of any republican ho might nominate. The. reason given by most of these republicans was that an attempt to force the confir mation of a republican would result in either tieiug up tLe senate for the Test of the session, or the adoption of a cloture rule, nud that they would not take any chances of either. Contrary to prece dent Judgo Jackson's nomination has been referred to a committee. It has been customary to confirm the nomina tion of ex-senators without referring them to committees. Judge Jackson although a democrat is not a believer in the doctrine of state rights. Democratic senators say privately that his confirma tion depends upon Mr. Cleveland's wishes. The houso whilo sitting as a committee of the whole adopted a very sensible amendment to an appropriation bill, giving tho owners of American quarries a chance to compete with for eigners in furnishing the marble for the new Congressional Library building, but when the yea and nay vote was taken in regular session the party whip was brought into use and the "protection" cry raised, consequently the amendment was rejected by a party vote. Secretary Foster's report on the condi tion of tho treasury, and his estimate of receipts and expenditures for this and the next fiscal year has put an end to the talk alout a bankrupt treasury, which has leen more or less prevalent among democrats ever since congress met. The amount of mutilated currency now leing presented to tho treasury for re demption averages $1,500,000 a day, being much larger than for many years. It is believed that this is largely caused by tho scare concerning the carrying of tho germs of contagious diseases in old paper money. Tho attempt to mako the Panama canal investigation a star-chamber affair is not well received. The people want to know the whole true inwardness of this busi ness and if it injures anybody's reputa tion so much the worse for them. ADDITIONAL LOCAL. Letter List.

Mr. John Lambort of DavenporC la., died on Monday, Cth inst. at tho Oconee Hotel, at the age of 79 years and 1 month. After brief devotional services at tho houso by Rev. A. Killip, the re mains were conveyed by rail to his home in Iowa, accompanied by his son-in-law, Mr. Campbell. Some of the relatives with tho pastor went as far as Columbus. Mr. Lambert came hero on a visit to his daughters and sister during the summer. He had a serious illness shortly after, and was recovering when he had a re lapse through undue exposure and fa tigue, which ended in his death. He was much beloved by his friends for his gentle, kindly nature, and received the respect and confidence of his townsmen for his strict integrity and industry. Ho was a member of the Old Settlers association who would pay his memory every token of regard. A marriage took place last Wednes day by which two large and well known families became connected. Mr. Charles Pottor and Miss Sadie, eldest daughter of Mr. C. W. Talbitzer, were the happy couple. The ceremony, conducted by tho Rev. R. Killip, look place at the homo of tho bride, and was attended by a large circle of relatives from oach side, together with a few of the nearest neighbors, taxing tho utmost capacity of the not very large house. The evening, after an excellent supper, was very pleasantly spent in social intercourse, interspersed with music, both voca! and instrumental, the family being nll of them possessed of a happy faculty in that lino. Tho young people have taken up their abode on the farm occupied by the bridegroom and his brother Will, on what is known as tho Jewell place, and from the reputation of each, there is no doubt that a fair portion of happiness and prosperity is befoio them. Thero were numerous tmd valuable presents, all of a character useful in a house, which evidenced tho kindly feeling of tho donors. Mr. Hawkins, hitherto living a littlo east of town, has sub-rented part of Mr. McCone's farm and is about to remove with his family to tho Ryder house next to tho parsonage. It appears that the buyer of Mr. Hen dryx's placo is Mr. .Murdock, who is already. such a large holder of land about here. It is said tho price was 825 per acre. Tho storm signals were flying at Co lumbus ou Wednesday, but nothing occurred hero beyond a rather high wind. This region has been highly favored as to the weather, so far this season, compared with the- rest of tho country, whore storms havo been unusu ally frequent and severe. District 44 and Vicinity. The traditional ground hog came from his lair on the 2d of this month, and on seeing his shadow returned to his den, thero to remain for six long weeks, dur ing which time we aro to plod aloug in rain, mud and disagreeable weather gen erally. Let us hope the hog has lost his grip on tho weather. Once upon a time a kingdom was offer ed for a horse. Out in this part of Undo Sam's country, it is two hogs for a horse, which fairly represents the value of the hog. Harry Hickok was out here a fow days last week visiting. About every third person yon meet is annoyed with a bad cold and cough, but nothing serious. M. Slieedy, who had his business eye open, took adyantago of the opportunity and laid in a good supply or tho neces saries of life at his own price, during the closing out sale of the Stonesifer stock. A party of young folks surprised tho household of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Egbert on the evening of ground-hog day. The party was gotten up in commemoration of the 10th birthday of their son Charles. The usual plays, games and toothsome viands were the order of the evening. All returned home early, with the ther mometer indicating 16 below. In looking over the fall wheat Sunday, we found whore the plant had been eaten off to the ground by stock, there remain ed a vigorous green plant, with a root so firmly established in tho soil that no March wind will cause it wither and dry up. Since winter wheat has taken the place of spring wheat, our millers make better flour, and as a consequence the farmer has better bread. Bennio Brodfeuhrer of your city was ont in this vicinity Sunday. Peter Schmitt of Shell Valley Mills lost five fat hogs last week by being too familiar with the creek; whilo crossing over on the ice, they broke through and were carried under by the current. They were found tangled up in the water wheel. R.

The first symptom is hoarseness; then the child appears to havo taKen 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 fow doses of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy will prevent the attack. Even after a rough cough has appeared tho disoaso may be prevented by using this remedy as directed. It has never been known to fail. 25 cent, 50 cent and SI bottles for sale by C. E.

"In the latter case I used Chamberlain's Cough Rem edy, and I think with considerable suc cess, only being in bed a little over two days, against ten days for the first at tack. The second attack I am satisfied would have lieen equally as bad as the first but for the use of this remedy, as I had to go to bed in about 6ix hours after being 'struck' with it, while in the first caso I was able to attend to business about two days before getting 'down.'

Philosophers say that it is by the changes of things, the varieties of surroundings and emotions that human nature is devel oped. Probably that is the reason we havo so many great men and noble women in Nebraska. There is no danger from whooping cough when Chamberlain's Cough Rem edy is freely given. It liquefies the tough, tenacious mucus and aids in its expectoration. It also lessens the se verity and frequency of the paroxysms of conghing, and insures a speedy re cover'. There is not the least danger in giving it to children or babies, as it contains no injurious substance. 50 cent bottles for sale by C. E.
