It is just a little curious that out of
a squad of, say six people, only two or
three will get the correct answer to the
following:
"A blind beggar had a brother; the
blind beggar's brother died; the brother

We warn readers of The Journal
against another base swindle that is be

receipt which turns up as a promissory
note.

There is an old law in Nebraska
against selling tobacco in any form, in
cluding cigarettes, to persons under 15
years of age. The new law, which goes
into effect August 1, is aimed at those

pretty severe in its provisions. Young
boys in Columbus are using cigarettes,
openly on the streets.
"Tom." Wilson of this city made a

We notice that Miss Maggie, daugh
ter of Calmer McCune ot Stromsbnrg,
(a former resident of this city), passed a
very flattering preliminary examination
upon entering the New York Conserva

musician of rare ability, and predicts
that she will become a performer on the
piano with but few equals.
What is called the rain bath is be
coming popular. In New York City
the past year the People's Bath at Center
Market Place has bathed over eighty
thousand people, at a fee of five cents
each. In a. space of twenty-seven by
by sixty-one feet it furnishes accommo
dations for nine hundred daily. Colum
bus will get along a few years yet with
the Loup river and the individual bath

The Jocbxal would like to have, in
brief, the experience of every man in
this section of country who has grown
alfalfa. We believe that it is the great
grass plant for Nebraska, when we all
learn how to get a start with it We
notice that in Bed Willow county a 200
acre. field turned off 1,700 bushels of
seed, worth $5 a bushel, $8,500. The
hay and pasturage was worth half as
much, making $12,750 for the crop on
200 acres, grown last year without irriga
tion and almost without rain. This
season, some of their fields ot alfalfa
have been cat twice, and the yield was
heavy. A field cut June 6 to 8 turned
off three good loads to the acre. The
second crop, on -July 12, was three feet
high. Some sown last spring where the
land was elesa has beam cut once for
hay and the eseoad ezop-it s foot high

Lettie Speiee, the 12-year-old daugh
ter of Mr. C. A. Speiee, is one of the
energetic young ladies of our city. In
stead of spending her summer vacation
in idleness or recreation of some kind
that causes more exertion than pleasure
received, Miss Lettie is learning the
dress-making trade in the shop of the
Misses Costello, and is without doubt
making a success of the art Even
though a girl may never be called on to
sew her own clothes, it is an invaluable
accomplishment for every woman.
We suppose that the following par
agraph refers to one ot the projectors of
the A. X. railroad in this state, and
very well known to and remembered by
our older citizens: "San Francisco, July
18.. The funeral of A. N. Towne, second
vice president and general manager of
the Southern. Pacific railway, took place
today and was attended by thousands of
railroad officials, employes and friends.
The pallbearers were the oldest engi
neers and conductors on the road. The
directors of the Southern Pacific, prior
to the funeral, met and adopted resolu
tions eulogistic of the dead railroad
manager."
A servant girl in the family of C. C.
Carrig of Platte Center, met with an ac
cident Monday of last week which was
the cause of her death at 3:30 of the fol
lowing day. While holding the baby,
an older child accidentally tipped overs
small table with the lamp, which upon
breaking, immediately enveloped the
girl and baby in flames. Mrs. Carrig
came in time to take the child, and the
girl (Miss Sophia Jaixen) ran out doors.
Some one told her to jump into a tank
of water near by, which extinguished
the flames but not before she had been
severely burned as to cause her death.
The damage to the house was but slight.
The late Prof. Huxley bld'hia opin
ion as to what constitutes a liberal edu
cation: The man has a. liberal education
who has been so trained in youth that
his body is the ready servant of his will,
and does with ease and pleasure all the
work that, as a mechanism, it is capable
of; whose intellect is a clear, cold logic
engine, with all its parts of equal
strength and in smooth working order,
ready, like the steam engine, to be
turned to any kind of work, and spin the
gossamers as well as forge the anchors
of the mind; whose mind is stored with
a knowledge of the great fundamental
truths of nature and of the laws of her
operations; one who, no stunted ascetic,
is full of life and fire, but whose pas
sions are trained to come to halt by a
vigorous will; the servant of a tender
conscience, who has learned to love all
beauty, whether of nature or of art, to
hate all vileness, and to respect others
as himself. Such a one, and no other,
has had a liberal education.
Attention is called to the advertise
ment of W. B. Backus in today's Jocb
n.vl. Mr. Backus has a wide reputation
as a well-informed, enthusiastic teacher
and not a mere listener to text-book re
citals. His success in the line of bis pro
fession is assurance, if any were needed,
that he will do his duty by all who come.
We are glad to note one important fea
ture of his school, and that is special in
struction. For instance, we know of one
man who felt the need of being able to
calculate interest on notes and the like
bad no confidence in himself. He
sought instructiou of a teacher in that
special particular and, after a few lessons
was able to make calculations and verify
them. Another felt himself capable of
thinking, but not of grammatically ex
pressing himself, Iet what he didn't
know embarrass what he did know"
sought instruction, and before many days
was able to rid himself of his blunders
and get well along to easy and correct
speech and writing. Another, an awk
ward penman, "naturally a poor writer,"
as he supposed, became, after two dozen
lessons, a fine penman.
Since the organization of the chess
club, quite an interest in the royal game
has been awakened, and it is safe to say
that those who learn to play the game'
and practice playing it strictly accord
ing to rule, will find it not only intense
ly interesting, merely as a game, but
also of great value as illustrating, in
playful yet very significant manner, im
portant life-lessons. As, there is no ef
fect without a cause, and no cause
without an effect, everything done,
helps make the result, therefore, lay
your plans, think well before you act;
look over all your field ot operations,
there may be three or four or half a
dozen little contests subsidiary to the
main battle, and possibly you may be
defeated just where yon least expect it
The truth isthat there is no limit to the
lessons thus learned, but if the one great
rule of' the game' could be strictly en
forced on the checkered field of life's
battles and conflicts, we would have a
better world to live in, that is, obey
strictly the laws of the game and -see
that your play-fellow does the same.

The newspapers of Nebraska are
discussing the question of their duty to
party candidates, and pay for their po
litical work, generally. The average
opinion seems to be that, somehow or
other, the newspaper does not get com
pensated for its work, politically.
Newspapers, when working for party or
party's candidates ior office, have, in one
sense, the same interest that any like bu
siness plant has in the general welfare,
and, so far, can share in the general good
or ill resulting from their election. The
editor ot a newspaper should never
swerve from this rule. Something is
due in party fealty for party support,
and a newspaper without political opin
ions, expressed on proper occasions, is
not fully appreciated by the average cit
izen. Men who accept nomination be
cause they believe it a duty neither to
seek nor" decline ormce (when they are bo
circumstanced as not to be too much in
convenienced thereby), make the ideal
office-holders. Possibly no other kind
should be even thought of for office.
When this is the case, it may be taken
for granted that the millenium will have
been well along its first decade, at least.
In practical politics, however, as in
other things, it is the seeker that finds.
Not always does he find exactly what he
seeks, but something along the line of
his seeking. When men make a busi
ness ot office seeking, they can hardly
expect the proprietor of a newspaper (a
part of whose business consists in rent
ing space in his paper for' pay),to make
such generous donations of space and
of work in the type-setting and writing
to fill the space, as are not demanded in
the interest ot the general public. The
lawyer who defends a criminal for a fee
is regarded as conducting a legitimate
business; the newspaper that would do
the same thing would receive public
condemnation. From the office-seeking
fraternity, the legitimate newspaper, it
is safe to say, gets nothing nor asks any
thing. But there is always space, so far
along in history, between the legitimate
newspaper at one end ot the line and the
ideal candidate at the other, for the pro
fessional office-seeker and his comple
ment the trafficing newspaper proprietor
with both itching palms behind his back.
The Leigh World directs attention
to a swindle that ought to be known
over the state. A. F. Cimfel of Clark
son, Nebraska, had two insurance poli
cies of $750 each, one in the Planters
Insurance Company of Alexandria, Vir
ginia, and the other in the Virginia
Farmers Insurance Company of Norfolk,
Virginia. The policies were issued
through R. A. Bishop & Co., Insurance
Brokers, 187 La Salle St, Chicago, 111.
Cimfef suffered a total loss of the prop
erty insured, and after being' to consid
erable expense in having the case looked
up, he finds that the companies are no
good -snide conaarns-aad that there is
no way of bringing the offenders against
our laws to justice, as the business was
conducted by correspondence through
the Chicago firm. Not having been in
the state, the officers of the companies
nor the Chicago agents can't be brought
here as fugitives from justice, the crime
committed is not of a sufficient high
character to get a warrant for the extra
dition of the criminals so their victims
are helpless, The law should be amend
ed and the penalty placed high enough
so that those who violate it can be
brought into our courts for trial.
H3oL. Whitcomb. of Friend, will read

it would make huh sick. Did he never
hear of a bee tree? Fremont Tribune.

Appoint a SepablU-aa.
Editor Journal: The vacancy in
councilman for First ward presents
some notable features. The vacancy is
to be filled by appointment by the re
maining' five members ot-the council.
If three of these five were democrats,
no one doubts but a democrat would be
selected by them to succeed Mr. Wells.
As it is, the-majority ot the council now
are republicans, and in my opinion these
members should do their duty to' the
party that placed them where they are
by selecting a good republican ot the
ward. If party majorities at the ballot
box are good to elect, why are not party
majorities good to appoint, when occa
sion offers and duty calls?
Let us assert our principles, and there
is no better way to do this than to place
good republicans in office whenever and
wherever opportunity offers.
I understand that certain, elements ot
democracy have been inquired of as to
whether the appointment of a certain
man (democrat) would suit them, and
that they have signified their assent,
and this inquiry, too, by one who has no
vote in appointing.
Let us, as republicans, do our duty
by our party, stand by our colors.
I repeat, if there were three demo
crats to two republicans as members of
the council to make this appointment,
it would be a democrat

Editor Jodbkal: I have not forgot
ten the promise to let you know all
abont the scientific examination of the
Russian thistle. The work is not com
pleted but I will inform you what has
been found so far.
The mineral constituents vary from 18
to 43 per cent according to the soil on
which it grows. Potash is generally
present in large quantities and varying
from 12 to 28 per cent Soda about half
as much in proportion-. Then it con
tains a large amount of nitrogen, so that
the amount of protein is found to be
more than 11 per cent. It verifies the
statement that it is a valuable food plant.
So far no poisonous alkaloids have
been found. These seem to be entirely
absent.
As I said last fall, the plant will be
found very good for animals. More than
ever, I look to it to be a sure preventive
of hog cholera. Even the ripe plant can
be cut, ground and scalded with boiling
water and will be eaten by animals. The
prickles are brittle, contain principally
carbonate ot lime, which is very desira
ble for hogs. The seeds contain much
phosphoric acid besides protein.
We say again, prejudice and the
prickles have spoiled good judgment,
and made man blind to the good quali
ties of the plant and we do not give up
the idea that these prickles can be
changed by culture.

citement was experienced Monday by
the discovery of a wee earthquake east
of the G. A. R. building, where Camp
Culver was recently located; it is a
crack about 100 feet long, somewhat cir
cular, and one foot wide in some places,
and in some places yon can look down
eight feet, where the earth has sunk
away or settled; it is near the bank, but
probably 80 rods from the river, and
seems to have been caused by a current
in some way, from Sunday night's rain.
It attracts many sight-seers.
