A case of more than ordinary interest
to creditors of broken banks has been
decided by the United States circuit
court of appeal at Chicago. The re

fense was that the directors and not the
brokers were responsible to the bank
for the peculations of the president.
Tho court, however, ruled to the con
trary, and gave judgment for tho re
ceivers. If this decision holds good it
will open up a way to recover for cred
itors a large portion of the money lost
through the peculations of bank offi

great per cent of such defalcations are
traceable to board of trade speculation

We quote a sample:
A new rule they've established, like a fifty

"If the pupil don't grade, put the grade to
the scholar,"
If the lowest percentage had been five and
twenty.
The question arises: "Would they thought
that a plenty?"
Twould been shameful to stopped either pupil
from passing.
For to go a year longer would be so harassing.
The school's reputation is not as concerning,
A diploma we want, never mind about learning.
The level-headed editor of the
Cedar Rapids Outlook expresses the
situation very neatly thus: The beet
authorities are of the opinion that the

perous condition. Prices for cattle will
probably remain good for several years
and the farmers, by their valuable ex
perience during the last ten years, by
improving their grades and by their
general effort to increase their number
of cows, are prepared to reap the bene
fits of this splendid opportunity. Com
paratively speaking the Nebraska farm
ers are now having their inning and by
economy and thrift their outlook is
much better than it has been for years.

The Fremont Tribune, after telling
of visitors from there to the metropolis
to attend theater, sys of Admiral Schley
as he appeared in his private box: "The
ovation was something tremendous. As
it was the first chance most of the peo
ple had to see Admiral Sohley.it was
something to be remembered by them.
The admiral is a very much finer appear
ing man than his photographs would
indicate. It may have bean something
of a disappointment not to behold him
in uniform, but he is a fine specimen of
a man, and as he stood at the corner of
his box with his hands thrust into his
pockets, making a speech to the vast
throng, every one there felt that the
naval leader was a man of whom his
country might be proud."
The trial of a girl of fifteen years of
age at Schuyler on a charge of murder
ing her infant child, the sensational
case at Norfolk, and the evident murder
some time since of an unknown infant
child at David City are indications of a
state of affairs that ought not exist.
The human passions should be held to
the control of reason, and with those
who are not capable of self-control, the
opportunity for evil should be avoided
as of the utmost importance. No
human being can deliberately, willfully
and continually continue in wrongdo
ing, and be anything but a slave to his
or her bad habits. There is probably
no better practical rule than "Cease to
do evil; learn to do well."

trifle over 1,000 pounds, whereas a gain
25,000 pounds is usually made.

is always adding new and novel features
to his admirable exhibition, has been in
search of an elephant so small in size
that it would be a veritable curiosity
one that would be a pleasing feature
with which' to delight the large audi

his most wonderful animal exhibition.
And at last one of his agents cabled
from Bombay, India, that he could se
cure "Pinto." The price paid was some
thing like five dollars a pound and the
little fellow weighs a trifle over 750
pounds but elephants are expensive
and "Pinto" was deemed worth the large
amount, and ao the little fellow was sent

Henry T. Spoerry is an old veteran
and has had a varied and unique expe
rience in his earthly career, but last
Friday convinced him that a horse is
sometimes more easily frightened than
others, and that it is just as well to be
a little on the lookout. He had made
arrangements to go into the country
with Mr. Marty, and drove to his resi
dence early Friday morning, put the line
around the whip, and got out to see Mr.
Marty, but just at that moment the
horse took fright at something, whirled
around, knocked Mr. Spoerry, who
grabbed the lines and tried to straighten
the horse into the path of duty, but
horse strength was too much for him
altogether under the circumstances, and
the animal succeeded in getting away
from the old soldier, but fortunately
didn't do him so much damage as was
reported, and not nearly the amount
that a vicious horse could have done.
Rumor enlarged upon the happening,
and by the time it reached Mrs. Spoerry,
he was reported half dead, but when she
got to the battle-field, there were no
visible evidences of the conflict, and the
two men had gone off on their errand
into the country.
Death ef Judge Parka.
8unday evening last at five minutes
to 8 o'clock, Norman Hamilton Parks
departed this life at his residence on
Thirteenth street, this city. The call
was sudden, his final illness being only
five minutes. He had been ailing for
several years, but retired from business
only last year. He had said he could
not hope to get well or even to improve
in health his ailment being heart
trouble. He had been out in the after
noon with his daughter, who had driven
south of the river, returned home, ate
his supper, seemed as well as usual, but
in so short a time tbe spirit passed from
its body of flesh. We understand that
funeral services will be held tomorrow,
Tuesday morning, at 10, at the resi
dence, Dr. Pnlis of the Baptist church
preaching the sermon, and the remains
taken to Ord for interment.
Mr. Parks was born July 24, 1841, at
Syracuse, New York. When small he
went to Cornwall, Canada, where he be
gan to learn the printing business at
the age of thirteen. While there his
mother died, leaving him an orphan to
care for himself. He continued to fol
low his chosen business until the civil
war broke out. At that time he was in
the south and joined the Confederate
army, losing a finger at the battle of
Sbiloh. He come north in 1879, was
married at Chicago on June 30 of that
year. He was a compositor on the
Times, and had many reminiscences of
Wilbur F. Story.
He came west, living at Deadwood
four years and a half, then to Nebraska
in 1884, starting the North Loup Herald
at North Loup Valley county; in a short
time after to Scotia, establishing the
.Scotia Herald.
He was elected county judge three
terms, moving to the county seat, where,
in 1890, he established the Greeley Her
ald, which he conducted until coming
here when he purchased the Telegram
and was its publisher from April 12,
1894, to August 25, 1898.
He leaves bis wife, his daughter Carrie
D., and son Norman H., two sisters and
a brother to mourn his departure.
Mr. Parka was a man thoroughly in
formed in hi chosen profession, and
was a good judge of human nature. He
gained the love of the fraternity here
who bad business relatione with him,
and his memory not only as an able
man, but also as a man more than usu
ally affectionate and thoughtful of
those in want or distress, will long be
cherished by all of us.
THE LIQU0 LAW.
WOl Carer Irery Plate ef the Qaai-
Kearney's city council have rejected
by a vote of 5 to 3 the business men's
petition to grant a saloon license. Two
years ago the question was submitted to
a vote of the people and while high
license carried, so few voted on the
proposition that it was not regarded as
a real expression of the people's wish.
In the last election, no-license won.with
a full vote cast. The council has fol
lowed the expressed wish of a majority
of the voters, and grants ao license.
There ia no doubt bat this is tbe
strong tendency in moat parts of the
state of Nebraska. While the Slocumb
law has accomplished wonders in doing
away with oroes-roads saloons in conn
try plaees, end because' of the heavy
bonds and large lisenea fee easily re
quired, there are come of its provisions
that are, in plaees, not complied with at
all, and it ia to this last fact, that the
pro-saloon people may look for trouble.
If the Slocumb statute may be vio
lated with impunity, so msy any other,
and thus lawlessness is bred. If the
expressed will of the public as put forth
in this law is to be continually set aside
there will come about a different state
of feeling with reference to those who
violate, the law. In- the city of Colum
bus there are men in the saloon business
who would no more think, for instance,
of selling liquor on Sunday than they
would of doing any other illegal act;
they wouldn't sell intoxicating liquor to
minors; they wouldn't allow gambling
in their places of business, and so on.
The ground truth is that the appetite
for drink ia like the appetite for any
thing else indulge it. too much end it
will work ruin; and if any one is afraid
of it getting tbe better of him, that man
ought, in our opinion, to abstain from
the use of intoxicating liquors alto
gether. We could readily see many years ago
that no man had any kind of a right to
get drunk. Our human life is such that
all our senses, and all our faculties of
reason are necessary to the full, clear
and proper discharge of our duties, and
there is no necessity and no sense for a
man to make a habit of getting drunk.
Jt he has acquired the habit, he should
quit at all hazards.
Our present liquor law we regard aa
the best practical attempt. so far made
at the solution of the problem of doing
away with the acknowledged and un-.
doubted evils of tbe traffic. If it was
lived up to by everybody (as laws on all
subjects should be lived up to), there
would, without doubt, be a better state
of affairs, and what is tbe use of hav
ing enactments on statute books unless
there is at least a good effort made to
enforce them?

James J. Hill of tho Great Northern
is seeking a southern outlet, and has
his eye on -Wichita, Kansas, as a pivotal
point in the development of his railroad
system toward the Gulf. Norfolk, Ne
braska is the nearest point on the Hill
system, north of Wichita, 300 miles
away. Tbe road is to run duo south to
Wichita, thence to Sherman, Texas, and
then to Port Arthur, on tbe Gulf. Aa
has been more than once remarked by
eminent railroad men, this is one of the
best routes in the country for a railroad
line. It traverses a great agricultural
region and crosses great east-and-wesl
systems.
Wichita is interesting itself in the
project, and the Wichita Eagle is exert
ing every nerve to 'inform the public
concerning it.
Columbus is right in line, and another
road would add to our importance as a
manufacturing point and a distributing
center.
