The free lectures inaugurated by the
New York board of education ware
attended by 400,000 people this year.
" The loss to the school fund of Lin

crease in tho number of saloons to take

$12,000.
Sheriff Newman of Lake comnty, Col
orado, has been sentenced to six months'
imprisonment and removal from office,
after beiug convicted of taking bribes
from gamblers in Leadville.
It is stated that certificates of elec
tion have been filled out in Governor
Holcomb's office for J. S. Kirkpatrick
and William Neville, although the con
stitutional amendment providing two
more judges did not receive a majority
of all the votes cast at the recent elec
tion. Play fair, boys.
It is given out from Washington,
whether by authority of President-elect
McKinley or not does not appear, that
no ex-office holders will be appointed,
the reasons assigned being that new men
have come into politics the past four
years and many old ones have never
received recognition for work done in
the past.
The following paragraph from the
Albion News, one of the oldest and also
one of the very best republican party
journals in the state, tallies with our
observation:
"No republican paper in the state so
far as we know is attempting to justify
State Treasurer Bartley in holding some
$000,000 in the general fund while there
are outstanding warrants for several
times that amount."
If Mr. Bryan goes on increasing his
income at the same gait he has been
going since election, observes the Nor
folk News, his chances for another pop
ulist nomination aren't worth discussing.
Think of a man who can get $40,000 for
forty weeks' work posing as the repre
sentative of the struggling masses. Mr.
Bryan will not only be a plutocrat, but
he'll enter the first class as a thorough
bred. Flushing, New York, is the home of
the oldest singer in America. His name
is David L. Horton, and though 91 years
old his voice is in splendid condition,
and he is considered the best bass singer
on XiOng Island. Mr. Horton led the
church choir in Southold for 50 years
and is locally famous as an evangelist.
He has devoted his life to sacred music
and song. He appeared in the opera
house at Flushing the other night and
entertained a large audience as the cen
tral figure in a children's cantata.
Thebr is a growing demand for the
abolishment of the pass system. It is a
just demand. The state provides ample
compensensation for mileage. Legisla
tures should be prohibited under heavy
penalties from receiving mileage in any
form, or othor favors, from railroad or
transportation companies is one of the
most serious questions for the considera
tion of our state and national represen
tatives. They should be free from every
undue influence on the part of corpora
tions, so that they may candidly and
justly deal with the problem, in behalf
of the people whom they are sent to rep
resent. Norfolk News.
It has long been established that loss
by fire rises and falls in sympathy with
the commercial and industrial conditions
of the country, which leads to the logi
cal conclusion that many fires are of
incendiary origin. Recent statistics
show that fire losses in November of this
year were $5,000,000 less than November
of last year and almost $7,000,000 less
than the same month of 1894. As com
pared with the two previous years, there
has been a substantial decrease every
month since June of this year. The loss
for the eleven months of this year is
$15,000,000 less than for the same period
of 1894. Canton (Ohio) Repository.
Speaking of going to fight for the
Cubans, it seems very doubtful if our
government would allow a huge body of
men to cross this country with the object
publicly avowed of engaging in a war
against a country with which we are at
peace. Those who have gone before
have, as a rule, done so quietly, and
under some subterfuge or other. A rail
road refused to give a rate to the Colo
rado company the other day because it
might lead to trouble with the govern
ment. Doubtless there will be hundreds
if not thousands of Americans who will
find their way to the side of the strug
gling Cubans, even against the vigilance
of the United States authorities.
The law creating the state board of
transportation provides that the three
secretaries of the board shall be taken
from separate political parties. The
popocrats have followed this statute by
appointing a democrat, a populist and a
tree silver republican. The latter is not
a party at all within the meaning of the
statute or in conformity with the vote at
the recent election. Indeed there were
virtually two parties, the republicans
and the f unionists. The gold democrats
cast a vote which gives it a legal title in
the state, yet the republicans and gold
or national democrats were ignored to
make room for a secretary from the
varieus elements of the fusion combina
tion which had but one ticket in the
field. The election is therefore clearly a
violation of the statute, in effect if not
. technically. Kearney Hub.

Sbmlxdb Cuaxvlmm of New Hampshire
has written quite a lengthy article for
the Washington Poet, in which he vigor
ously assails the position of the presi
dent on the Cuban situation. He reviews
the constitutional provisions touching
upon the powers of congress and the
limitations of the executive, and closes
with this paragraph: 'There is no
escape for the advocates of monarchical
government in Washington from the
provisions of clause 18, section 8, article
L it is singular that the only two pres
idents who have undertaken to defy con
gress have been Andrew Johnson and
Grover Cleveland. The one tried to
create and maintain against the will of
congress the ten new state governments
in this union; the other claims the right
against the will of congress to aid in
sustaining abroad a bloody tyranny over
an oppressed nation. President John
son betrayed and abandoned the party
which elected him, his treachery was
condemned by all right-minded men and
he went out of office without a party and
without a friend. Mr. Cleveland still
lingers with us."
It is suggested that on January 1,
1900, a new division of the year into
thirteen months be instituted. If such
were made the first twelve months
would have twenty-eight days, or four
weeks each, and the new month twenty
nine days, to make 365, and thirty in
leap years. After a few days there
would be no use to refer to calendars, as
the same day of the week would have
the same date through the year. If
January 1 were, say, Monday, every
Monday would be the 1st, 8th, 15th and
22d; every Tuesday the 2d, 9th, ICth and
23d, and so on through the year. The
changes of the moon would be on about
the same dates through the year, and
many calculations, like interest, dates
of maturing notes, Easter and many
other important dates would be sim
plified. Although the present genera
tion would have to figure new dates for
birthdays, and all legal holidays except
New Year would be on different dates,
yet the gain would be more than tho
loss, and that would be permanent and
the objections trifling. Scientific Amer
ican. Dorino a lecture on the subject of
"Novel Electrical Experiments," deliver
ed before the South African Philosophi
cal society by A. P. Trotter, government
electrician and inspector, the lecturer
rang up the Cape Town telephone ex
change and asked it any of the longer
postoffice telegraph lines were clear.
The Port Elizabeth line was then con
nected up and the lecturer, observing
that with the extremely sensitive instru
ments used in the government offices it
was not necessary to use ordinary elec
tric batteries for the signaling to such a
distance as Port Elizabeth, disconnected
the battery commonly employed, and,
plunging a steel knife and silver fork
into an orange, sent telegraphic signals
by means of the feeble currents thus
generated. He then asked the front row
of the audience to join hands, and, put
ting them in the circuit, sent signals
through their bodies to Port Elizabeth
and back by means of the orange cell.
Mbs. Ada M. Jabbett claims to have

WEALTHY RANCHER ASSASSINATED.
Shot m He Sat at HI Sapper Table ly
Some Ob Unknown.
Topeka, Dec. 29. George E. Gil
more, a wealthy rancher in Rawley
county, Kansas, was assassinated Inst
Saturdaynight, being shot as he sat at
his supper tabic by some one unknown,
who fired a load of buckshot through
the window. A strange woman, who
gives her name as Prudence Holbert, is
in jail, charged with the crime. Neigh
bors found Gilmore in a dying condi
tion, and when they asked him if he had
any enemies he confessed that he had
jilted a girl at his old home in Orange
county. New York, and that she had
threatened to loll him. He said he had
lately received a warning from her that
he had only a short time to live. He
declined to'give her name or any further
information about her. Neighbors of
the murdered man formed a posss and
went out, hoping to run down the as
sassin. Near the Nebraska line, fleeing
northward on foot, they captured a lone
woman, who gave her name as Prudence
Holbert. When taken before the dead
body of Gilmore she was greatly dis
turbed, but she positively refused to say
whence she came or that she knew any
thing of the murder or of the murdered
Sympathise With Strikers.
Boston, Dec. 29. Fanueil hall was
crowded with people last night in re
sponse to the call issued by the Street
Car Men's union, 80 of whose members
have been discharged by the West End
company. President Little of the road
had been invited to attend, but de
clined. On the platform were senators,
ex-congiessmen, lawyers, doctors, cler
gymen, philanthropists and business
men, while in the gallery were many
women. A committee was appointed to
wait upon the company and protest
against any further discharges, to de
mand the reinstatement of the men and
to obtain a conference so that the agree
ment might be discussed.

SPAIN IS READY TO QUIT
Olney and De Lome' Terminate
Cuban Negotiations.
TO B2 SUBMITTED TO 00HGBE8S.
Premier Canovas States the Terms Which
Spain Will Accord to the iHsargents and
Practically Asks the 1'nlted States to
PropoM. the Condition to Her Rebel
lious Suldects.
Washington-, Dec.29. The Post says:
It has been learned from an authorita
tive source that Secretary Olney and
Senor Dupuy de Lome, the Spanish
minister, have practically terminated
the negotiations of the Cuban question,
which are to be submitted to congress
when its convenes Jan. 5. The terms
of the agreement are based on the re
cent official communication from Pre
mier Canovas,addressed to the secretary
of state.
The premier states clearly the terms
which Spain will accord to the insur
gents and practically asks the United
States to propose these conditions to her
rebellions subjects. In return for our
'good offices Spain assures this govern
ment she sincerely deplores the great
commercial loss which we have sus
tained on account of the Cuban disturb
ances, She assures us she is even now
considering a reciprocity treaty which
will deal mainly with Cuban products
and which will be framed in such ad
vantageous terms toward this govern
ment that our losses, both in commerce
and in the destruction of American
property in Cuba will be most gener
ously compensated.
Premier Canovas says Spain cannot,
of course, as a self respecting and re
spected nation, stand before the world
as having been coerced into measures by
the United States. She has freely
granted all she now offers, and that in
the face of a rebellion. But she accepts
the good offices of the United States to
act as mediator and to guarantee to the
insurgents amnesty aud the enforce
ment of the new reform law which she
is about to proclaim in Cuba.
The form of government offered is,
the Spanish statesman declares, the
limit of independence which can be
granted to a province by any nation
without absolutely severing the bonds
of union with the mother country.
Autonomy as enjoyed by the Canadians
can never be granted in Cuba.
What Spain is willing to grant the in
surgents if they lay down their arms,
and what she asks the United States to
guarantee, is an act which provides for
a council of administration which shall
control all matters pertaining to the
commerce of the Indies and all esti
mates upon the general taxation and
expenditures of the islands, as well as
its general home government.

which the ways and means committee of
the house will give to the representa
tives of the various industries interested
in the preparation of the new tariff bill
began in the room of the committee at
the capitol Monday and will continue
daily until Jan. 11. Much interest was
manifested and the room was constantly
thronged with delegations and the rep
resentatives of various trades. Owing
to the brief time allowed for hearings
and the desire of the committee as ex
pressed by Chairman Dingley. to avoid
unnecessary repetitions many of those
who appeared simply filed their briefs
and made no oral arguments.
Mr. Dingley expressed the opinion
that the presentation of condensed
briefs would answer the purpose of the
committe better than argument and
advised the filing of such briefs where
possible. He announced that briefs
would be received until Jan. 11. Only
seven of the 1? members of the commit
tee were present, Messrs. Dingley of
Maine, Payne of New York, Evans of
Kentucky, Dalzell of Pennsylvania and
Johnson of NorthDakota, BepobUcans,
and Messrs. McMUlin of Tennessee and
Wheeler of Alabama, Democrats.
The schedules upon which hearings
were accorded yesterday were those re
lating to chemicals and spirits and
wines. Without exception all who ap
peared asked for an increase of the du
ties on the particular industry in which
they were interested. Almost all who
appeared in behalf of changes in the
chemical schedule urged change from
ad valorem to specific duties.
Those who made oral arguments on
the chemical schedule were: Thomas
F. Harrison of Philadelphia, H. Krebgs
of San Francisco; James Maguire of
New York, W. H. H. ChildsofNew
York, J. T. Choelkoff of Buffalo; J. S.

tain Their Fellow Townsman.
Lincoln, Dec. 29. A complimentary
banquet was tendered Hon. W.J. Bryan
last night at the Lincoln hotel by the
Traveling Men's Bimetallic club. Mr.
Bryan was heartily applauded when he
arose to respond to the toast "Our
Guest."
He said he was glad to speak to a
company of traveling men, because they
were able to defend his position and
they cobV do missionary work in behalf
of free coinage1 during the coming four
years, for the simple reason that they,
better than any other class, were able to
compare the goods delivered since the
election with the samples shown during
the campaign.
He charged Republicans with having
given assurances of a return of prosper
ity after the election of McKinley, but
declared that it had been just the re
verse, an increase of failure and general
breaking down of industries. He
quoted from commercial agency reports
in support of his claim.
Among the speakers were Governor
Holcomb, Senator Allen, J. H. Atwood
of Leavenworth, Kan., and District
Judge W. H. Thompson, Congressmen
Bland and Towne and Governors Altgeld
and Stou sent letters of regret.

the multimillionaire of Butte, Mont., to
sell 9,000 shaaes of the Bntte and Boston
mining stock to W. A. Payne of New

CORPSE INjW HOUSE
Mary Gilfillan Brutally Mur
dered at Osceola.
BH0T BY SOME UHCT0WN PABTY.
Evidence Seems to Implicate a Farmer's
Ion Authorities 'Issne a Warrant Tor
Joseph Wolverton On SnsplcioaThat He
Is the Slayer-He Disappears-Prime-Drake
Case On Trial.
CKESTON.Ia,, Dec. 29. A mysterious
murder was committed at Osceola Sat
urday night. Sunday evening G. E.
Smith went to the railroad pump house
to get some tools. Lying upon the floor
of the house he found the body of a
woman. There was a bullet wound in
the temple and the hands were covered
with blood. He at once notified the
officers and the lemains were taken to
an undertaking establishment and iden
tified as those of Mrs. Mary Gilfillan, a
waitress at Howe's hotel.
Considerable mystery surrounds the
murder. Mrs. Gilfillan came from
Bradford, 111., six weeks ago and first
entered the service of Doc Wolverton, a
farmer residing near Osceola, as a serv
ant. Two weeks ago she came to
Osceola and was engaged as a waitress
in Howe's hotel. While at Wolverton '
she is said to have kept company with
Joe Wolverton, and he was the last per
son seen with the murdered woman.
She left the hotel Saturday night and
her dead body was found 22 hours
afterward.
A warrant has been issued for Wol
verton's arrest, but he has disappeared.
Mrs. Gilfillan did not get along peacea
bly with her husband and left him. It
is understood divorce proceedings were
pending. What motive there was for
the murder cannot be imagined. The
rumor was circulated about Osceola that
Gilfillan had been seen in town, but
this is erroneous, as advices from Brad
ford locate him in that place.
Prime-Drake Case on Trial.
Des Moines, Dec. 29. The Prime
Drake National Guards' case was tried
in district court and submitted. Gov
ernor Drake did not appear to testify,
but Adjutant General H. H. Wright
was on the stand. A motion to dismiss
the case as to Governor Drake was
overruled. The rulings of the court
have been such as to indicate that the
governor and adjutant general will be
defeated and the commission of briga
dier general ordered issued to General
Prime.
Jury Couldn't Agree.
Muscatine, Dec. 29. In the famous

state poultry show has opened here.
Coops have arrived from all over the

BICYCLE GRIPS.
Tho Hahtt of Holding the Handle Bar a
the Center.
Assume, if you please, that the grips
are properly placed at the ends of the
handle bar, from 12 to 18 inches apart,
and that the proper place for the rider's
hands is on the grips. The fact remains
that the average rider seldom touches
his grips in riding, but grips the naked
bar on either side of and close to the
top of the steering head. Are we to in
fer from this that the standard of handle
bar construction is all wrong and that
the grips should be at the top of the
bar and not more than eight inches
apart, or that the bar should be left
long to meet the exigencies of rough
riding, while the material of which the
grips are made should cover the entire
bar up to within an inch or two of the
center, or that it would be well to have
a pair of supplementary grips at the
place indicated by the position assumed
by the rider, or what?
Undoubtedly the present standard
handle bar is correct. The average
rijer, for 00j.thjnj, hjg kjf jgpt drop-
I ped so low that he cannot reach them
conveniently, so that his easiest position
is with his hands on the top of the bar,
and again many riders, with level or up
turned bars, who are able to reach their
grips comfortably, have acquired the
habit, of grasping the nickel in defer
ence to the popular idea. We think that
every rider is obliged at times to use
his grips. Full handle bar leverage is
necessary whenever steering is rendered
difficult by rough surface or otherwise.
At such times every rider finds that the
standard bar comes in handy. Supple
mentary grips would detract measura
bly from the trim appearance of the
handle bar, and it may be doubted
whether cyclists as a class would toler
ate them. A bar entirely covered with
cork or other grip material would speed
ily become soiled and make a sorry
looking object in comparison with the
bright nickeled bar. American Cyclist.

ADDITIONAL LOCAL.
Our Nebraska readers will be glad
to learn that the value of the corn crop
ia to be wonderfully angmuntod in the
naar future, scientists having discovered
new uses for tho different elements in
the stalk smokeless powder at a total
cost of 15 cents a pound, while what tho
government now buys costs several dol
lars a pound; a beautiful lacquer, per
fectly waterproof; ceUnloid cheaper than
from othor substances; better, finer and
cheaper sugar than from the sugar cane
of Louisiana; from tho pith comes the
most valuable vegetable which oan bo
found for purposes of protecting the
sides of battleships from inrnshing water
after being struck by shells; now the
best of such padding is made from the
cocoanut fibre, which has to be imported
into this country at a large cost. By
actual experiment tho pith of tho corn
stalk has been discovered to be almost
twice as serviceable as the cocoanut
fibre, and in addition its cost is less and
product greater. The Lincoln Journal's
wide-awake Washington correspondent
devotes three-quarters of a column to a
lecture given in the capital city by Pro
fessor Gibba of Philadelphia on this
subject, and he closes by saying that
corn stalks will bring tho farmer about
$10 an acre in addition to the value of
the grain. Hold on to your land, boys,
dig out of debt, and raise corn.
The use of tobacco by very young
boys has grown to lie quite an evil in
this "land of tho free and home of the
brave." Laws have been passed against
the sale of cigarettes to minors, for in
stance, but still the evil grows, and
observant men aro becoming anxious for
the race of mankind on earth, when so
many youngsters are pollntinglife almost
at its very source. The writer of this
paragraph presumes to know something
of the way in which boys acquire this
habit and the effort it takes to quit, but
the habit is like ail other bad practices
the first tiling is to appreciate that it
is injnrious; the next to determine to get
rid of it, and the third to get rid of it,
notwithstanding all discouragements,
all partial failures, all seeming draw
backs. The practical quitting of a bad
habit is very ranch, on general principles,
like learning to walk. It is good to
know Hint, fnithfnl pffnrt. tnw.irrla t!i
I right has all nature in its favor. The
best results como as the effect of individ
ual consciousness of wrong, a clearly
deGned campaign of attack and a vigor
ous, indomitable purpose of self-subjuga
tion. These reflections are suggested by
a paragraph saying that the boys in the
public schools of Omaha are asked to
sign of their own free will a pledge to
abstain from the use of tobacco during
their school days, with a proviso that
they can lie released from their pledge
at any time on a personal request. The
teachers report that tho plan has worked
well, that very many of the boys have
signed the pledge and that keeping it
has coiuo to bo regarded as a matter of
honor. Better scholarships, better mor
als and more cleanly habits are among
the direct results.

Cedar Rapids Outlook: It might be
well since our public school has been
interfered with by diphtheria, not to
have but eight months of school this
year. Not of course if it prevents the
drawing of state funds but under the
circumstances the state money would
probably not be cut off. The times de
mand the greatest possible economy.
Valley Enterprise: It has recently
developed that there is quite a good deal
of soft corn in this section of the coun
try. We are informed B. Hopper of
Waterloo had 7,000 bushels spoil in the
car while shipping and Nolte of Elkborn
had 10,000 bushels spoil the same way.
It was not an entire loss, however, for
when they found it was too rotten to
feed to stock they shipped it to St. Louis,
where they sold it for 8 cents per bushel
to make whisky for men.
Ho wells Journal: It seems rather
queer, but for the last month all the
children born in this vicinity are boys.
Some of the old people are telling that
it is a sign of war, still we doubt it.
There may be war yet no one expects it.
The old people in support of their sign
claim the same thing happened before
the civil war. Not being present at the 1
time we cannot vouch for the correctness
of such a historical event but if the
prophecy is true its a good time we'll
; have.
To Chicago aad the East.
Passengers going east for business, will

way, via Omaha and Council Bluffs,
affords excellent facilities to reach their
destinations in a manner that will be
sure to give the utmost satisfaction.
A reference to the time tables will in
dicate the route to be chosen, and, by
asking any principal agent west of tho
Missouri river for a ticket over tho
Chicago, Council Bluffs & Omaha Short
Line of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St.
Paul Railway, yon will bo cheerfully
furnished with the proper passport via
Omaha and Chicago. Please note that
all of the "Short Line" trains arrive in
Chicago in ample time to connect with
