Abraham Scott adds several partic
ulars to the report in regard to the
lightning that struck Charles Morse's
farm house Friday. Mrs. Frank Scott
was sitting by a window at the time,
and was so shocked by the lightning
that she was unconscious, she doesn't
know for how long, but when she came
to consciousness the room waa filled
with smoke and there was a sulphurous
smell. Grabbing the babe, who waa
unhurt, she rushed from the building
and found that the smoke waa from a
shed attached to the house. The light
ning had come down a corner of the
house, tearing the post, and setting fire
to a pair of pants hanging ap in the
abed.
The following is taken from the
Platte Center Signal: fJohn A. Kehoe,
who haa been suffering for the past three
weeka from a blood cancer on the nook,
was taken suddenly worse hut Monday
and Dr. Hansen of this place, Dr. Mar
tyn of Columbus and Dr. Bear of Nor
folk were called and on Tuesday held a
consultation over the patient After
making n careful diagnosis of the case,
they found that Mr. Kehoe's condition
was more serious than any one anticipa
ted, and fears were entertained that be
would not recover if the cancer should
cause one of the veins in the neck to
burst, which it is not unlikely will hap
pen. The beat of care and attention is
boing given him, bnt he is sinking very
rapidly and it is feared that the end ia
not far off, but yet it is hoped that a'
change for the better may come."
Fred Stevens got hie team of horses
and outfit without very much trouble,
but no little expense, costing him about
as much as they were worth. He had
had a notion that all old men were hon
est, and young ones might be so, but he
has now a different opinion. The old
man that hired his rig seemed sensible
and fair-minded bnt it waa only seeming.
The buggy pole was found at Exeter,
where he had traded it for shafts, saying
that one of the horses was giving oat,
and he was about through with hie Ne
braska business anyway. He had a
large bundle of land abstracts, and
claimed that he had been placing loans
on Nebraska lands and was looking after
hie interests. The harness waa found
at Friendville, aad the two horses and
buggy at Fairmont, where they had been
sold for $50. The man who threw away
the $50 waa only sorry that he couldnt
interview the wandering traveler for a
short season. He thought he could
make it interesting for him.

Ton that have Nebraska land woald
do well to hold it nnleas you can get ita
full value in n sale. The turn seems to
have come again for the great body of
Nebraska soil, so far as moisture is con
cerned, and it looks now as though we
are to have a succession of good years
for crops. Aside from the riches in the
upper soil, there seems to be a prospect,
here and there, for great riches in the
underlying rock. It will be remembered
by Jouknai. readers that early in the
summer, in the bottom of a deep well
near Calhoun, gold in paying quantities
wss found. The fact waa undoubted, as
proved by several assays. Nebraska
people generally have been wondering
why the find was not worked, bnt the
following, from last - Sunday's Bee,
throws light on that:
"When it was announced that there
was a show of gold some enterprising
Erty secured options on about all the
id in that part of the state. The op
tions covered a period of six. months
and provided that the owners of the
land would part with their holdings at
any time within that limit at the rate of
$75 per acre. The party who eecured
the options did not pay down any money
and the farmers soon came to the con
clusion that they had signed a jaghan
dle agreement
Under those conditions the farmers
would not give any assist an oe in patting
down a shaft, as some one else would
reap all the reward of "any discoveries
that might be made. The, man who had
put down the original well would not
sell though it was said that be was
offered aa mach aa $20,000 for twenty
acres. Without money the work came
to a standstill
The options on their land will expire
in October and the farmers aay that
they will then organize a company and
put down prospecting shafts which wfll

The Schuyler Herald says that M.
T. Bohman is having n house built at
the Chicago Lumber yard which is a
novelty in away. It is to be sixteen
feet long, eight feet wide and six feet
high and divided into two rooms, one
room to be used for sleeping and the
other for kitchen and dining room. The
sleeping room will be furnished with cot
beds snd other furniture and the kitch
en, besides a stove and other utensils,
will be supplied with two ice boxes, one
for victuals and the other for cold tea,
etc. Windows and doors with screens
will admit light and air and exclude
mosquitoes, flies and other "animals."
When completed this structure will be
mounted on trucks and moved to Mr.
Bohman'a ranch on the banks of the
Platte, south of Columbus, and he and
his family and possibly some friends
will occupy it next week. It will be a
sort of roughing it although somewhat
of an improvement on living in a tent
Our old friend and editor neighbor
A. E. Cady, is running for congress in
the district west of us, and is, of course,
making a splendid campaign. The Sid
ney Telegraph closing an account of his
speech there, says:
"Mr. Cady made a great many telling
arguments, in fact his speech was full of
them from beginning to end, but lim
ited space at this time forbids more ex
tended reference to them. He concluded
with a story which is presupposed to
take place on the morning after election.
John rushes into the boose and takes
down hie dinner pail from the nail where
it haa been banging for the last three
years; he tells Mary that McKinley is
elected and that he starts to work in the
morning. Mary's giaaiacespeaKsworas
which her mouth cannot utter, but she
finally says: 'John, yon remember the
motto,' -The Lord Will rrovide,' "waicb
mother gave us and which I turned to
the wall after the factory shut down; I
never told you why I turned it to the
wall, bnt I thought it was taking too
much of the Lord to provide under this
democratic administration.' "

taken ander sdvieement aiaoe he waa

will be remembered that the defendant,
at the trial contended that the special

association waa foraied waa unconstitu
tional. The jadge delivered qaite a
lengthy opiaion hi which he saataiaed
the position taken by the defendent
The association awed to recover some
thing over $1000.00 and the judgment
gave it waa aboat $350.00, making a dif
fereace of aboat $700.00 between the
amoaat aaed for and the amount re
covered. To this decision the plaintiff
exoepta, and the matter will doubtless
go to the higher court for consideration.

The Times-Herald of Chicago,
on
August 4th, contained tha following:
Armour A Co. will give a dollar for a
half dollar. A round; white, glistening
coin, containing eleven grains more of
pure silver than the American dollar,
may be had for one of Uncle Sam's 50
cent pieces.
Fifty cents worth of juicy beef or pork
and one of these heavy dollars for any
kind of American money, be it gold or
paper. If you can't pass the coin you
get with your meat, bring it back and
get your good money.
These are the liberal offers made by
Armour k Co. to their 5.000 Chicago
employes, to the end that the latter may
have a practical illustration of a system
of free coinage in this oountry at a ratio
of 16 to 1.
The offer went into effect yesterday
morning. There was ao ohaaoe to lose
on the part of the wage-earners and cur
iosity seekers, and an opportunity for an
object lesson in finance made trade
brisk. The firm was something out in
the transaction. The heavy dollars sold
were from the Mexican mints, and while
they cost only 50 cents in that country,
the expresssge amounted to nearly 5
cents on every coin shipped to Chioago,
The company, however, was willing to
stand the loss, believing that every coin
that went out would be an inanimate
teacher against the free silver heresy
and would, in its troublous travels, work
the salvation of the wage-earner.
With every Mexican dollar that sold
for 50 cents, was given n circular that
needed neither foot notes or explana
tion. It is a tale told simply in leas
than 200 words, pointing out what the
condition of the wage-earner will be if
silver monometahem prevails. The
Mexican dollar and the circular go hand
in hand, for the reason that if the cir
cular is not sufficient to reveal the perils
attached to free silver in the United
States the worhingman may be con
vinced by spending his Mexican coin
and finding out how far it wfll go toward
baying the baby clothes or filling up
the larder.
The circular leaves theories for the
politiciana and astute financiers, and
tells a few plain facta which the posses
sor of tha Mexican dollar found oat for
hlxeaelf. These are the facta pointed
oat:
The Mexican silver dollar bays only
one-half aa much aa the American afl-
dollar.
Tha Amerioaa silver dollar, contain
ing lata silver, bays ia this ooaatry
twice as mach at a Mexican dollar.

To the Scranton (Pa.) Times belongs
the credit of instituting n comparison
of the imports and exports of gold dur
ing democratic and republican adminis
trations. During the fifteen years between and
inclusive of 1878 and 1892, all but four of
... . ... ..
which were years of republican admin
istrationand during the four years of
Cleveland's first presidency congress'
waa republican, so that repabucan pol
ioy prevailed the imports of gold, were
greater than the exports by $101,56810.
That is to say. the United States re
ceived this vest sum of gold from for
eign countries.
But, taking the statistical abstract of
the United Statee for 1896 as author
ity, and it is a report published by a
democratic secretary of the treasury, we
find that during the seooad term of
Mr. Cleveland, during the greater part
of which the democrata had control of
the legislative and executive functions,
yi
the exports of gold, in exi
of imports,
have stood thus:
AOsWA
OVI a
avOWa a a a a a aaaaaaaa i
1896
.t87jsea,en
. 4jsaa.9ai
. m.es&.sui
. niii.awi
The returns for 1896 cover only eleven
months, that ia to say, from June 30,
1896, to May, 1896. Thus there has
been a net loss of $197,531,106 in gold
during three years and eleven months of
democratic rule.
During fifteen years of protective tar
iffs administered by republicans the
United States were made richer by $101,
568,310 of foreign gold left in this coun
try after its current indebtedness of
gold was paid to foreign countries. Dur
ing lees than four years of democratic
tariff administered by democrats for
eign countries were enriched by $197,
531,108 of United Statee gold paid by
the United States to them sf ter ell for
eign current indebtedness of gold waa
paid to the United States.
That is to say, in lees than four years
the democrata dissipated the net gain
of $101,56cV310 won by the republicans
in fifteen years, and in addition thereto
sent $95,962,796 of American- gold
abroad.
This shows that protection to Amer
ican industries protects that American
"gold reserve" or which we hear ao
much nowadays. Under protection we
sell more than we buy, and are paid for
it in gold. Under democratic tariffs we
buy more than we sell, and have to pay
for it in gold; for Europe will not accept
silver.
Hence it is plain that "free coinage
at 16 to 1," or at any other ratio, cannot
help us greatly unless it be accompanied
by protection. For our silver will not
be accepted by Europe, and specially
not by Great Britain, and without pro
tection we are and must be dependent
on Great Britain.
Gaw. Dak Sicxlxs of New York, one
of the old soldiers who has aiwaya been
a democrat, declares his intention of
voting for McKinley. Gen. Sickles says
that he and hie comrades were aot ac
customed to nee blank cartridges when
in the presence of an enemy; therefore
he does not propose to throw away his
vote on n third candidate. Nor were
they in the habit of withholding their
fire when assailed; therefore he doesn't
mean to stsy at home and not vote at
all. "I shall give a patriotic vote for
my comrade, Major McKinley," he de
clares, "believing that in so doing I am
repeating what I did in 64 when aa a
war democrat, I voted for Lincoln and
the Union." General Sickles is only
one of many thousande of loyal. and
sensible democrata who take thia view
of the situation. (Ex.
