Hurrah for the republican party of Nebraska! Now let the majority for the ticket be entirely satisfactory. Miss Julia Dent Grant was married Sunday night at Newport. R.

The naval bombardment in Subig bay was effectual, in the destruction of a Krupp cannon there. The town of Olangapo was wrecked. Mb. McLean is really not a resident of Ohio, and yet he is the democratic candidate for governor of that state. Such is democratic trust. Rev. H. W. Kuhns of Omaha, the pio neer Lutheran pastor of that city, died suddenly of apoplexy Tuesday evening of last week, on the exposition grounds. Iowa has a law which requires the capital stock to be at least 10 per cent of the deposits, and several banks, for the first time in their history have this contingency to meet Joseph Opelt, one of the pioneer settlers of Nebraska, coming here in 1851, died at Omaha Sunday. He opened the first hotel in Brownville. He also established the Opelt house in Lincoln. The transport Sherman sailed Sunday for Manila with the Thirtieth regiment, United States volunteers, and a detach ment of 350 recruits for the Eleventh cavalry and the Thirty-sixth and Thirty seventh volunteer regiments. A little before noon Thursday T. P. Mahoney, an Elkhom freight brakeman, was killed while switching in the yards at Arlington, supposed to have fallen from the top between the cars, and was badly crushed. Fremont Herald. "If you are in earnest in your opposi tion tomonometalism," be sure to oppose and keep opposing the free and unlimit ed coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, or any other fixed ratio. The policy of the populists is virtually silver mono uetalism. The August exports of the United States were the largest in our history as a nation, amounting to $104,648,436 against $8465,561 for August, 1896, which was a wonderful year. The tariff and other policies of the republican party seem all right. J. Stekliko Morton, in The Con Mrvativa, says: Thus far populist promises have beea -unfulfilled in re dactions of the cost of running a state goveniment Never has there been any Barked lessening of Ihe number of po litical pot-hunters on the pay rolls of populism. Mxbs Viola Horlocker, charged with having attempted to take the life of Mrs. Charles F. Morey by sending her a box of poisoned candy on the 11th day of last May at Hastings, was arraigned in district court Monday and gave bond is the sum of $5,000 for her appearance at the December term of the court. The fusionists of Nebraska are awful aaxioas to fight the campaign in Neb raska this fall on national issues. That's plain. Any six-year-old could tell why. It's anything to keep the record of Si Holcomb out of sight. The Pilot contends that the campaign should be waged not on any special issue but oatbe qualifications of the men run ming for office. If Holcomb has a better record than the man the republicans fttlwp, then Holcomb should be elected to the supreme bench by an overwhelm ing majority. If the republicans put p the man with the better record then he should win out at the polls. The oalce of supreme judge should be farther .separated from politics than to say that attoaal issnoo should decide the win- for the most important office in the u-Blek Pilot.

Probably no incident in a state con vention in Nebraska ever aroused so much enthusiasm as the speech of Chaplain Mailley before the republicans on Thursday afternoon. His speech is worth cutting out. He said, speaking with much clearness of enunciation, and pausing to let every sentence go home: "I have never even voted a republican t'cket," he declared, "but I belong to a church that believes that 'while the light holds out to burn the vilest sinner may return. I am glad to have the privilege of addressing a convention of a party that believes that the world do move,' that believes that the shoes that were large enough for the boy may be too small for the man. In time of peace I am for the administration when it is right. In time of war, when the time for talk is over and the time for action has come, then I am for the administra tion, right or wrong. I have followed the old flag over the rice fields of Luzon with the best regiment that Uncle Sam ever sent to the front and I propose to follow it here. There was never a time when the republican party had so great an obligation resting on it as it has at this time. The issue of this contest will not be settled in the Philippines, but right here, at the ballot box. And I have come home to vote as I shot." As he spoke the convention grew more and more demonstrative. When he fin ished and the band played the "Star Spangled Banner," the scene was inde scribable. Everybody is commenting upon it today and declaring that it was a wonderfully dramatic incident. Lin coln Journal. The first of the recent shocks of earth quake in Alaska were felt September 3. Within five hours afterward there were fifty-two distinct shocks, ending in one so severe that the people of Yakutat were hurled violently across their rooms or thrown to the ground, and houses rocked and swayed and whirled. A tidal wave approached the shore bnt be fore it reached it, the earth opened in the bottom of the harbor and into this chasm the tidal wave spent its force. Hubbard glacier with its two and a half miles of sea front, thousands of feet thick, extending for miles back to the summit of the mountain broke from its moorings and moved from half to three quarters of a mile. Mountains were thrown down, the sea opened and por tions of islands disappeared. Rumors were afloat that a portion of Cape St Elias and Kbantaak island have disap peared in the sea. 41 With our vaults full of gold; with a sufficiency of money to meet the de mands of a volume of business unprece dentedly vast and profitable; with labor generally employed at fair wages; with our commerce overspreading the world; with every dollar the government issues as good as any other dollar; with our finances as firm as a rock, and our credit the best ever known; it is no time for financial mountebanks to cry their nos trums in the market-place, with any chance of being heard." Secretary of State Hay to Col. Charles Dick of Ohio, Irwin F. Bush of Joliet, Illinois, was sent to the Kankakee asylum last March, pronounced hopelessly insane. He is now, through treatment with lymph from the glands of goats, at home with his family completely restored in mind and body. The treatment is also said to arrest senility or old age. Dr. Roberts, a physician of Green City, Mo., the dis coverer of the treatment, has gone to Europe, to lay his discovery before scientists with a view to having them adopt in insane asylums there. The Lewiston school, near Platts mouth, has been closed. There were fifty pupils in school when one was taken with diphtheria. Since that time the disease has spread rapidly and three have died. The teacher, Miss Cherry, and fifteen other pupils are now very ill, with very little hope of recovery, it is said. 1 ifcitttettal steal. Judicial ComveatiM.

THE COMPASS AND THE GROWING USE OF ELECTRICITY. A Daawer Taat the Xatte BTeeaUe B-r e aeaierei Practically Use the Marlac am the Sar-eyav-O, Cariaaa Dlscoverr. Although the invention and inrmdnc. Hon of the trolley system of street rail ways have been of inestimable value to Civilisation it has incidentally wrought some harm here aad there. Emphasis waa laid on on of these drawbacks to electric traction in the address delivered by Professor A. W. Bueker at a recent meeting of the British Association For the Advancement of Science. In various parts of the world observa tories have been established for the par post of keeping track of the changes in the airection in which the asagnetio needle points. It was long ago disoov ta not only that the compass does not aim directly at the north pole, bat that the amount of variation in its indica tions from tree north undergoes alow alteration Hence ft )t laamj, jo leant J9 f L&tttUcJUK Bam tk Thl Kttt Yw Km AJwp Jr sjUSTSl Cm&ffB&l (Zsyffl mako fresh charts, showing the varia tion for different parts of the globe every few years. But in order to get the data for such corrections of the highest importance to the surveyor and mariner it is requisite that careful ob servations be made continuously at a auinber of widely separated points. Two of the most famous and hitherto useful institutions of this class are sita ated in Washington, "in the ground of the naval observatory and in Toronto. The interference of the electric currents that run through the earth and the track of trolley lines which have been constructed near these observatories in terfere so much with the behavior of -the instruments of both places that the records now obtained are practically worthless. And the experts are greatly puzzled by the problem of escaping from this vexatious interruption of their work. So delicate are the influences which the magnets in such an observatory are intended to investigate that they can be perceived only when the apparatus is most scrupulously guarded. The room in which they are mounted is under ground. Visitors are never admitted ex cept under unusual circumstances and are required to deposit their jackknivea, keys and all other metallic objects about their persons before entering the apart ment The magnets, generally bars of steel not over six inches long, are poised above a scale that is graduated to the most minute fractions, and a telescope, on an adjacent pillar, is used to read the fluctuations, which are too small to be discernible by the unassisted eye. A tiny mirror, as big as a dime, catches a beam of light more slender than the lead in a pencil and reflects it away to a sheet of slowly moving photographic paper, on which a permanent record ia made. The arrangement of the apparatus is snch that rhe movement of the mag net is magnified many times in the rec ord, in order to render the changes per ceptible. There aro three sets of instruments on duty in such an observatory. One swings horizontally, like a mariner's compass. Another dips up and down. A third is designed to measure the in tensity of the earth's magnetism, which is a separate thing from the direction in which it acts. And so sensitive are they that their readings are apt to be interfered with by exceedingly trivial causes. It is customary for the superin tendent to inscribe on the scroll "Visit ors admitted," whenever such a breach of the regulations is permitted, so that if any abnormal fluctuation is detected in the motion of the magnets a suspicion of its meaning will be excited in the mind of the scientist who afterward ex amines the photographic trace. In spite of the delicacy of the appa ratus, it may seem surprising to the lay mind that the passage of trolley cur rents at a distance of many rods from the observatory should be able to affect the instruments within. But they do, and it is impossible to separate in the record the variations produced by genu ine changes in terrestrial magnetism from those which are caused by the trolley. Professor Bueker said a few days ago: "From all parts of the world We hear of observatories ruined or threatened by the invasion of the elec trical engineer. Toronto and Washing ton have already succumbed, Potsdam, Pare St. Maur, Greenwich and Kew are besieged, and the issue largely depends upon whether these great national ob servatories can or cannot make good their defense. " Although the practical service to mankind which is rendered by institu tions of this class is alone sufficient to justify their maintenance and to war rant alarm as to their future, there are other questions involved which possess profound interest for the philosopher. We know that the earth is a magnet, but as yet no one is able to say what makes it so. The fundamental secret of terrestrial magnetism has not been solved. Then, too, there are various changes in direction which mark the behavior of the needle that remain to be explained. What influence is it that makes the needle swing to and fro to a microscopic extent every day? Why is it that the diurnal swing is greater in years of sun Bpot abundance than at the minimum stage of solar activity? Why do the indications of the needle differ in summer from those of winter? What is the key to the mystery of the long period movement that makes it neces sary to rechart the situation? What causes the convulsive behavior of the magnets for a few hours or days when theze is a great outbreak of sun spots? And is there any relation between the weather and the fluctuations in the earth's magnetism? There are theories on these subjects, but no generally ac cepted doctrines, and the human mind is so constituted that it will not rest until further light is obtained.

Kothing could more strikingly illus trate the importance of small things than the large role which is now at tributed to the mosquito in the etiology of some of the most serious and wide spread diseases to which the human race ia subject. It is truly said that what prevents the succeseful colonisation of many tropical countries and what throws the greatest obstacle in the way of civilisation of and good government in vast regions of central Africa is not climate, not distance from home and not unfriendliness on the part of the nativea The obstacle ia malaria, and now we find that the prevalence of ma laria, to far as man is concerned, de pends on the mosquito, and that this pestilent little insect, in addition to ir ritating and annoying, is the means by which the poison of malaria is propa gated and distributed. For years back botanists have known the important part played by birds in the scattering of seed and of insects in the distribution of the pollen of plants, and it seems not unlikely that pathol ogists will faavo to recognize in a much larger degree than has till lately been done the large part taken by the subor dinate forms of life by which we are surrounded our cattle, our horses, our dogs and cats, our flies, our mosquitoes, and perhaps even our fleas in dis tributing disease from man toman, and, as is stated in regard to the mosquito and malaria, in deciding whether the extension of our empire over great areas of the globe's surface shall bo possible or not Hospital.
