Monday the Mississippi river over flowed its banks in many places, causing great loss of property. What a record for a man! Alfred Mar tin suicided at Omaha the other day in the rooms of his mistress. H.M. Stuabt and J. L. Langdon, rep resenting the Omaha World-Herald, are in the city canvassing for the cyclopedia that the Herald is selling along with their valuable newspaper. Both publi cations are well worth the money asked for them. No information has yet reached theso headquarters from Representative Irwin in regard to the appropriation of $200 for the contest case. We expect to get at the bottom facts shortly, when we will lay them before the readers of The Journal. It is doubtful if the 82,500 each charged by the impeachment attorneys for their legal services is not more extor tionate than the prices paid by Dorgan for the cell house material. Tho tax payers have just reason to implore high heaven to save them from their friends. State Journal. In the connty of Eastland, Texas, Friday night a cyclone dealt death and destruction far and wide. The town of Cisco was nearly wiped out sixteen people killed, over a hundred injured and several missing. Tho storm lasted one minute and was followed by heavy rain. Jim North appears to be tho only democrat in Nebraska at present who has a dead sinch on a good thing for which he has not yet been appointed. All the warring elements are for North save and except Mr. Bryan and he feels awfully lonesome. Schnyer Sun. One of the original S1,000 Fremont Platte river bridge bonds issued in 1871 has been missing and not heard from for twenty years, until the other day a Michigan man turned up with the bond. It is No. 1G, and is older than tho statute of limitations. What will be done with it remains to be seen. Wonder if any of our original Platte river 81,000 bonds are outlawed ? No such luck for us. Schuyler Sun. The Omaha Bee estimates that at least 82,000,000 of Nebraska money will find its way to Chicago during this season, not 81-00 of which will come back. The Bee does not think of tho officials who will represent Nebraska for pay, and of the men of business who have enterprises on foot in the Garden city. Secretary Morton remembered, his birthday Saturday, which always falls on Arbor Day, went out into the potato patch at the agricultural department in Washington, and in the presenco of a large number of his farm hands and his typewriter girl, ho planted a white-oak tree.. He then delivered a free-trade speech over the unprotected sapling, and it will doubtless wither and die. Fremont Tribune. Nebraska's chief of doggerel versi fiers has infected the whole newspaper fraternity, seemingly, so that those who have not already broke out with what might very fitly be called the itch of rhyme, are apt to do so in a short time, and on slight provocation, which is n state of affairs truly deplorable. Have the fates no pity for a suffering -people! MuBt this thing go on until every edi torial writer in the state goes trailing or skipping or hopping after Bixby, the chief sinner? What are wo coming to any way, and in the language of a dis tinguished democratic statesman, where are we at? But here is among tho latest specimens. For the patriotism latently contained in the lines, we have the greatest love, but we would modestly suggest to the versifier of the Fremont Tribune that he trim up his poetic feet, "In the Hawaii episode It seems one thing was forgot When the Blount hauled 'Old Glory' down No one shot him on the spot." Sometimes a suggestion to the wise, or to those who are inclined towards doing what is right becomes to them "a dividing of the ways" in life, leading in to comfort, peace, prosperity. The Denver Sun (probably seeing the great need of it) recently offered a prize for the best solution of the problem of how to keep husbands home at night, and the prize was awarded to the writer of the fol lowing: "A Quaker advised his son to keep his eyes wide open when courting; after marriage to heep them half shut. If you did not act on the first part of " the advice, try the latter. Study your .-husband's disposition and be sure to make a thorough study of your own. Try using a little tact and a good deal of consideration for bis wishes and feel ings and see if you can not teach him to be more considerate of yours. Business is trying. Men like peace at home. If possible, manage not to be worn out. Be cheerful. Don't worry. Don't scold." The Journal gives to its readers, on both sides, the benefit of the good ad vice, knowing that if it is acted upon, it will prove a blessing to many whose at tention has probably not been particu larly directed in this direction. "Ml friend, anxiety can gnaw at a man's strength with wonderful effect. Whatever your trouble is, my advice to you is to deal with it at once and for all, conscientiously, and with the best judg ment you can command, and then to let it alone. "Worries cannot bear neglect, and it is surprising how many of them will 'quietly steal away' when we turn our backs to them." Chicago has a consumers pure-ice company, and they put in their adver tisement a picture of a sample cake of their ice, "made of cry6tal-like, artesian water, which has been filtered and dis tilled again and again," showing up against a measly-looking chunk of Chi cago natural ice, from frozen surface water and sewerago taken from the Cal umet river." Tho World's Fair. A great white city ! Buildings largo enough to seat hundreds of thousands of people at ono time ! A park two miles long, varying from a few hundred yards to a milo in width and fronting the loveliest inland sea in the world ! Flowers, music, strange people every where ! That's tho Columbian Exposition ! Don't miss it. It's the greatest, grandest, most unique spectacle this earth of ours ever saw.

General Victor Yifquain has been ap pointed consul to Panama. The posi tion is a lucrativo one, and, apart from fleas and yellow fever, the station is said to bo pleasant. Henry Voss receives tho superintend ency of the Omaha bnilding, notwith standing the many protests to his appointment that havo been sent in to tho secretary of state. Tobias Castor, member of tho national committee from Nebraska, seems from all appearances to bo a bigger man than Jim Boyd, whose loud talk some days ago, led a great many of his political adherents in Nebraska to believe that ho had tho ear of the Cleveland adminis tration. W. E. Annin, tho Lincoln Journal's Washington correspondent, gives an in teresting story in connection with the election of Senator Allen, and says his informant now tells him that on tho day that Allen was elected Iio signed a paper stating that he had made no compact on tho matter of federal patronage and that this paper was shown to some of tho other candidates joined with a declara tion of prominent democrats that Allen had mado the same solemn pledgo to themselves; that, 'at that very moment, thero was a direct and express agree ment in existence between Judge Allen and Senator North, by tho terms of which Mr. North was to vote for Judgo Allen, and in consideration of which vote he was to bo appointed collector of internal revenue. Mr. Annin declares that he is quite convinced himself, from facts in his possession, that Judge Allen's agreement covered a number of minor offices and that it was effected through his law partner, Mr. Robinson. TIiom? Attorney Foe-. Kearney Hub : A special session of tho legislature ought to be called for tho purpose of impeaching tho scoundrels responsible for monkeying with tho bill appropriating fifteen 'thousand dollars for the prosecution of tho impeachment cases. Tho bill as passed appropriated fifteen thousand, but some way it got through tho governor's hands and was signed for twenty-five thousand dollars, nearly double what tho legislature in tended. Tho bill was manipulated some placo along tho roa.d before reach ing tho governor, and now the good peo- plo of Nebraska who havo been hearing so much of lato about corrupt officials of high and low degree, would like to know whose finger or pair of fingers are in this elegant little steal. Lincoln Call : Six thousand dollars each is a pretty stiff prico to pay attor neys for prosecuting state officers. With Rosewater and reform in tho sad dle, however, expenso doesn't count. '3Iiilt Pine-Clad 1MIN. Hot Springs, South Dakota, is almost as famous for its beautiful, healthful situation and its pure, rest-laden air as for the remarKablo properties of its thermal waters. Nestling cosily in a lovely valley and completely girt about by a circling range of protecting hills, the placo is a veritable Mecca for health and pleasure seekers. It combines, to an astonishing degree, the most desirable features of a high class sanitarium with those of a charming pleasure resort. For tho strong are superb drives ; in teresting walks ; out-door amusements ; everything, in fact, that makes the stea dy hand still steadier and tho bright eye still brighter. For the weak are the most valuable, strengthening and re juvenating waters in America- waters which are marvelously beneficial to suf ferers from rheumatism, sciatica, dys pepsia and scores of similar distressing ailments. The hotels ? Hot Springs hotels aro larger, better, more comfortable than those of any other western resort. And its plungo bath and bath houses aro complete. When you visit Hot Springs, which you're pretty sure to do some timo or other, take tho Burlington Route. It is tho " Scenic Lino ' to tho Black Hills. Its service is first-class in every respect. Besides, it has always on-sale round trip tickets to Hot Springs at very reduced rates. Tho local agent will givo you full information. A DDITIOXAL LOCI L. A Clear Field. On Monday last, we understand, W. M Cornelius, city attorney, placed his resignation with the Mayor, and on the same day also, C. A. Woosley, who has been prominently mentioned in connec tion with tho office, sent tho following to his honor, who is thus left perfectly at liberty in the premises to make the appointment without condition of pre vious complications of any sort : Hon. David SehujJlKicli, Columbus, AW. Dear Sir : Whereas, my friends have urged upon your honor my ap pointment as city attorney of this city for the ensuing year, and as you have given them, as well as myself, the assur ance that yon would make the appoint ment in accordanco with their request ; now, therefore, on account of the oppo sition of James E. North, W. N. Hens- ley, D. F. Davis, Daniel Ivavanaugh, and other leading politicians of this city to my appointment, on the ground that I am a leading member of Council No. 7 of the American Protective Association, for the reason that their opposition to me may redound to your disadvantage, both in a business way and in politics, I cheerfully withdraw- my name from any further consideration by you for tho position. I thank you kindly for tho ; consideration you nave given me. Yours most respectful!', C. W. Woosly. Written for Tax Journal. ARE YOU GLAD? 3f ABIOX GHAT. Fro eo g'.'td that spring lias come!

An examination of the winter wheat now reveals the fact that about fifty per cent of that sown on fall plow ing has winter killed.
