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.

Died, at Lincoln, Nebr., May 20th,
W. P. Phillips, aged 51 years. 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. K.

MY MAMMOTH JACK,
Four years old this season, is a coal

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.

This was a conundrum, says an ex
