QiTeaalactt. WEDNESDAY. MAY 24. 1893. Jons Stanhope of Richmond, Ind., paperedthe parlor of his house with Columbian stamps, costing him 83,800. The state of California seems to be in straightened circumstances, about a million dollars in debt. There is strong talk of dividing the state into two parts by a dividing line running east and west. The most bitter quarrel over spoils in Nebraska's political history was ended last week by the appointment of John Lantenser as superintendent of Omaha's new public building. The salary is $8 per pay. Wednesday of last week Gen. Van Wyck received a slight stroke of paraly sis, very much alarming his family and many friends. On Thursday another slight shock was felt, but nothing serious has resulted. Physicians say if the improvement continues he will soon be out. Ex-Congressman George "W. E. Dor set of Fremont, quoted at 8500,000 last fall, is now regarded as worth nothing, and fortunate in that. While in prosper ous circumstances, his wife became the owner of a splendid home which he still possesses. Dorsey seems in good spirits, and is one of that class of men that it is difficult to keep still. Even the Schuyler Quill, a former admirer of W. K Greene, the Kearney lawyer employed for the impeachment trial, says: "It is evident that he drew out the cash and went on a spree, thus missing the first week of the trial when he ought to have been there. Greene has blighted his political hopes. Peo ple have no use for him hereafter." Henry Fours was arrested at Syra cuse and taken to Johnson county on the charge of burglarizing Ball's store at Brock. He had on his person when arrested a Smith & Wesson No. 44 re volver, a large clasp knife, a razor and a pair of knuckles. He was also provi ded with a pocket billy. Ho was taken by surprise and had no time to defend himself. When arraigned for hearing he pleaded guilty. The Women's Belief Corps, organized at Denver in 1883 with twenty-eight members, now has organizations in every state and territory; in ten years they have raised and expended $500,000 in soldier charities. They have a member ship of 138,000. The Grand Army of the Republic was the first great body of men to put their faith and trust in wo men, to place them by their side. Abra ham Lincoln was the first friend and advocate of woman's work in the war, and Gen. Grant, the great silent soldier, next. Mrs. Sherwood. Mrs. Mary Blair has begun another snit for $5,000 damages agaiust the Beatrice saloonists for selling liquor to her husband prior to his death in Feb ruary, lKri This makes the third snit she has begun within a few days past, the aggregate amounts footing up S1H, 000. Mrs. Nancy Sanders of Jansen, Jefferson connty, has also filed a claim against "Beatrice saloonists for 5,000, for damages snetained by the death of her husband in April last at Harbine by the cars while ho was en route home from Beatrice to Jansen. The Geary law has been held consti tutional by the United States supreme court. The nation has tho right of self defense, self-preservation, and can ex cludo .undesirable immigrants. The de cision will donbtless have a far-reaching effect on classes of immigrants other than Chinese, and may complicate our intercourse with that people. We need not be surprised to hear of mis sionaries and other American residents and travelers in out-of-the-way places in China being subjected to ill usage, in retaliation. Of course the Chinese gov ernment in all such cases would disclaim responsibility. The Fremont Tribune has "begun the worry" of nominating a justice of the supreme court. Jt says that Justice Maxwell has now served twenty years; that there are many people in tho state who believe it would be a good time for him to step out; that the bar is un doubtedly to a large extent candidly opposed to his re-election, ete. For several reasons, Justice Maxwell would not be unobjectionable to many popu lists, and thus possibly be re-elected. This is the very strongest way in which " the Tribune could present the situation, . if it were intending specially to advo cate Justice Maxwell's re-election. Americans are not apt to consider a man .good for public service when he reaches Mr. Maxwell's age, but he yet dispatches - an immense amount of work, and if tho average Nebraska citizen is to have much of a voice in determining Mr. Maxwell's successor, we judge that it will be Mr. Maxwell himself again. ADDITIONAL LOCAL. Death of G. L. Jacob. Died at Council Bluffs, Iowa, May 15th, of senile gangrene, after an illness of several weeks, George L. Jacobs. To our scores of Ohio readers here and thereover the country it is due that we give a short sketch of Mr. Jacobs's career. He was born in Massachusetts June i 1822, removed, early in life, with bis parents to New Haven, Connecticut; afterwards to New York state, whence he found his way west to Ohio, making his home at Cadiz, Ohio,wber the writer first knew lam. Foranmmberof.years. Mr. and Mrs. Jacobs taagni scnooi at, Cadiz and attended the State Normal at Lebanon, where they received instruc-. tion from, and enjoyed the friendship of Buch educators as Prof. Henkle, the onthnr- nnd W. H. Venable, tho poet. Mr. Jacobs moved to Council Bluffs in 1868. where he taught in the public schools and also, for seven years, was county superintendent of public schools, discharging the duties of his office with ability and rare conscientiousness. Mr. Jacobs was twice married, his second wife surviving him. Her maiden name was Louisa Hardy; they were married in 1858, and lived happily to gether, their mutual regard, admiration and affection for each other strengthen ing and deepening with the passing For many years Mr. Jacobs had been afflicted with rheumatism, and his hfe who a constant example of Christian patience and fortitude in suffering. Several weeks before his departure he wrote to friends that his doctor gave tiim nn linns of recovery, and it was I very touching to know with what affec- ! . .1 l.lt. V. erawwvn tion tliev came to see anu una. wim u"t doubtless for the last time, many of them, and in many ways testifying their regard. . , aiv .Tnenlta was both a Mason and an Odd Fellow, a member of Bluff City Lodge No. 71 of the former, and a char ter member of Hawkeye Lodge No. 184 of the latter, and especially had he en deared himself to his brethren by his strict fidelity to duty, his constant re gard for their welfare as oreinren anu citizens, and his untiring zeal in deeds of brotherly kindness and care, and when he came to need such services himself, there were eager hearts and willing hands, anxious to do what they might to lighten his journey through the dark valley of the shadow of death, into the glorious light of the Upper Kingdom. Funeral services were held Tuesday forenoon at the residence, Rev. H. H. Barton preaching from the text in II Kings, 4, 1, "My husband is dead." The remains were conveyed to Weeping Water, Nebraska (where resides Mr. Jacobs's only sister, Mrs. E. S. Barnett), accompanied by the widow, Mr. and Mrs. Barnett, Miss Davis, and by Rev. H. H. Barton, Fred Rapp, Ernest Marsh, A. J. Mandel, L. Biederman, J. M. Matthews, U. Slead, A. D. Van Horn, M. F. Mc Cune, George Jacobs, E. A. Curfman and U. C. Estep as an escort delegated by the lodges. Sadly we followed the mortal remains of our friend to their last resting place in Oakwood cemetery, a beautiful burial spot overlooking a most picturesque country ana wnue the little cortege wound around and up the steep hillside and gained the emi nence; while tho casket was being lowered and tho ritual, beautiful in its simplicity, and tenderly appropriate was read by the young brethren, and the venerable Reverend Wilkinson feelingly pronounced the benediction, we could not but think of the hosts of the de parted who have already greeted their friend in the Spirit Land, and who, it may be, are looking anxiously down upon those sorrowing mortals, whose time of departure will also 6oon or later come.

From boyhood the' writer had known Mr. Phillips, and all these years he has been an iu valid. Notwithstanding this he lived to the age above mentioned, raised a family, was successful in conducting business, and has left a competence to his family, all of whom survive him, William C, John, Lucy, Fred, and Frank, and their mother. Mr. Phillips was born at Cadiz, Ohio, where he was educated, not only in the learning of the schools, but also in habits of indus try, and where, early in life, he showed a strong aptitude for business. Weak iu body as he had always been, confined to his house and to his bed, as he was very much of his time, he yet accom plished much through others in accu mulating property. One of the oldest citizens of Lincoln, ha'ving been there some twenty-two years, he always took a lively interest in everything pertaining to the welfare of the Capitol city. Nothing delighted him more than to be of use to others, or contributing in any way to their rational enjoyment. He was a good, safe counsellor, and those who had occasion to consult with and confide in him will sadly miss his kindly wnrda of advice or warning. His strength of mind always seemed far be yond and out of proportion to, bis strength of body, and he was always on the alert for current information bear ing upon the practical affairs of life, and very few strong ana neari-ymen were better versed in general business principles, or could better read tho signs of the times. A good citizen, a loving husband, a wise and affectionate father has gone from earth into the spirit land, and we all mourn his departure as a personal loss to Ub, however much it means of gain to him. While all their friends will sincerely sympathize with the bereaved family, they have sustained a loss that no earthly consolation can even assuuge; the memory of him whom they loved will over be cherished by them, and what he desired and did for them will be his best and living monu ment in their hearts. The funeral took place at 3 o'clock Monday afternoon, Rev. Curtis -officiating. Besides many relatives and friends of Lincoln present, there were of former Cadiz acquaintances and relatives of the familv: Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Phillips of Naperville, HI.; William Gilmore of Fairbury, Neb.; Mr. and Mrs. M.

W. H. Randami. Fred Stevens, Manager. jS-Will stand at Tiffany & Willard's barn, Columbus, Neb. On Tuesday night of last week, the Sunday question came up before the village council of Platte Center for dis cussion. There is an ordinance already providing for the closing of saloons on Sunday, and it was proposed to close all other places of business, excepting drug stores, hotels, livery stables and under taking establishments. It is understood that Bloedorn and Bnrrows favored this proposition, and that Hays, Carrig and Phillips opposed it. The result of the discussion was that if the business men of the village wish an ordinance of the kind and will so signify by petition, the board will grant it. Thb Journal feels like congratulating the village on hav ing a board with courage enough to propose the discussion of the question. It is pretty generally agreed that when men work six days of the week, they are entitled to rest on Sunday; that the main business of the world can usually be done on the six days; that if all would close their doors, or the authori ties could and would enforce the law as to all, the great body of business men, in fact nearly all of them the country over, would be highly pleased. Deliaaaeat Taxea. After the 1st, day of May. taxes on real estate are delinquent and draw in terest at 10 per cent per annum. Taxes for the city of Columbus are received at the office of Beecher, Jaeggi & Co., and prompt payment will save further in- terest. tf Notice for Paatare.

One young lady answered promptly: "The wind is a breeze; a breeze is a zephyr; a zephyr is a yarn; a yarn is a tale; a tale is an attachment; attach ment is love; and love is blind. There fore wind is blind." She got three in vitations to supper that night and four young men wanted to walk home with so remarkable u &'ouiu3. Help Wanted !
