Before daylight last Thursday morn
ing about 150 men entered the jail at
Tuscaloosa, Georgia, and got to Sheriff
Kyle's room where be was sleeping, sup
ped a pistol from under his head, de
manded the keys of the jail to get at a
riMrro or two to lynch them, but the
sheriff got to a closet, seized a shotgun
and told the mob that they must lull
him before they would get his prisoners.
In face of the loaded gun, it is said mat
tha mob left the iail and dispersed, it
sheriffs generally were more courageous
and determined in the discharge of un
pleasant duties, there would be fewer
crimes committed, either by individuals
or mobs.
The time for which Joe Bartley was
paroled by Governor Savage is about
half gone, and yet, so far as the general
oublio is concerned, there is only con
jecture as to why he was paroled for
sixty days. We have no doubt that in
due time the governor will communicate
to his constituents his reasons for the
parole, and also for such subsequent
action as he may think advisable. If
the parole shall have been proven justi
fiable by the promises made, and the
event shall have proved favorable to the
public interest, well and good. Other
wise, there is no calculating the serious
injury inflicted.
Governor Savage, State Treasurer
Stueffer and Secretary of 8tate Marsh
made the Norfolk hospital for the insane
an official visit Monday. At Fremont, it
is reported that the governor said to an
interviewer that when be paroled Mr.
Bartley, the letter made certain definite,
specific promises as to what he would do,
and whenever he carries out those prom
ises, the governor feels under obligations
to do something for him. The governor
added emphatically: "If he does not
carry out those pledges which have been
made by himself he will have to go back
to the penitentiary and stay there."
From the Cadiz (Ohio) Republican and
Sentinel we glean that the Bingham
statue to be unveiled at that place Sep
tember 26, is to be twenty feet in height;
the base, which is eight feet at the
ground, will be ten feet high, and the
figure ten feet. The statue is to be of
-bronze and will be erected upon a gran
ite pedestal near the front entrance to
the court house. Among the noted
speakers to be present is Senator Fora
ker. John A. Bingham was one of the
nation's most illustrious orators in con
gress during the period of the War of
the Rebellion.
The steamer Islander, the crack pas
senger steamer of the Alaskan route,
operated by the Canadian Pacific Navi
gation company of Victoria, B. C, struck
an iceberg off Douglas island at 2 o'clock
on the morning of Thursday last and
went to the bottom, carrying down from
sixty-five to eighty souls, including pas
sengers and members of the crew. Some
of the survivors arrived at Victoria Sun
day evening by the steamer Queen.
They report that as the vessel went
down her boilers exploded, causing the
death of many who might have escaped.
J. R. Buchanan, general passenger
agent for the Fremont road, says: "In
many places the ranchmen in northwest
Nebraska are cutting buffalo grass where
it waa never possible to secure hay in
former years. The cattle are in such
good condition that they are lazy. It is
estimated that there are 150,000 cattle in
Cherry county alone this year. All the
northera counties in Nebraska are in as
nourishing condition as could be wished
for. The sand hills which have been the
butt of so much ridicule, are a garden
spot this season."
The 5-year-old daughter of Samuel
McPrease of Hanston, twenty miles from
Lamed, Kansas, apparently died August
11. Funeral services were held the next
day. On the way to the grave-yard a
bolt of lightning struck the metallic
cofan and opened it, whereupon the child
sat up and called for her mother. The
horses were knocked down, but no other
damage was done. The little girl is in a
fair way to recovery. It is believed she
was in a cataleptic state, from which the
lightning shock aroused her.

A special from Pender, August 15,
gives in detail, particulars that will be
of particular interest to all Journal
readers,, who have to do with cattle:
Anthrax has appeared again in the
northern part of Cuming ooaaty, this
time among the cattle belonging to Fred
Schmidt, who lives one and a half miles
south of Fred Gilster, whose cattle were
afflicted with this disease two weeks.
He lost several bead at that time. Sinoe
inoculating his herd Gilster has not lost
any more cattle. Schmidt's cattle began
to die on Friday of last week. The first
one he skinned, not knowing what ailed
it, and allowed the hogs to eat the car
cass. As a result he lost of hogs thirty
five head that ate of the carrion. Hia
dog also died of eating of it The hoga
heads swelled up to enormous size and
finally burst open, causing death. Ia
skinning the animal one of Schmidt's
fingers got poisoned from the disease
and he has been .having a serious time of
it and is in danger of not only losing his
hand, but his life from blood poisoning.
He is under the doctor's care and is get
ting along as well as can be expected.
He has lost four head so far from the
disease.
Uncle Sam is going to have a soil map
that will be a wonder. It will be some
thing of a kind entirely hew and will
enable the farmer wherever he is located
to determine just what crops will bring
him the largest returns in money. Print
ed in colors, it will convey information
in the clearest and most easily compre
hended manner imaginable. The map is
to cover the whole of the United States
and will be on such a scale that every
ten acre patch will be represented by
one-eighth of an inch square. But each
farmer will be able to procure a chart of
his own neighborhood on a larger scale,
so that he can arrange his planting in
accordance with the suggestions which
it conveys. The work is done by town
ships to start with, and these are put
together to make counties, which are
finally assembled to form complete maps
of states. Exchange.
While some children were playing in
the dirt upon the farm of Joe Lamb,
near Hubbell, they unearthed a roll of
greenbacks which measured about four
inches through. They were so badly
decomposed by their contact with the
earth that they were falling to pieces,
but by the use of a powerful glass one of
them was found to be of a thousand dol
lar denomination. The roll waa imme
diately sent to the treasury department
at Washington. There are a number of
conjectures as to the circumstances sur
rounding the rich deposit, but the most
plausible theory seems to be that it had
some connection with the famous Hub
bell railroad wreck that occurred some
fifteen years ago. Fremont Tribune.
Miss Cora Fat, daughter of H. W.
Fay of Bradshaw, has gone to the Phil
ippines on the transport Thomas, which
sailed July 23d with a passenger list of
500 American school teachers. They
will build for the future of the people of
the Philippines, and in all the hundreds
of years during which those islands were
misgoverned and tyrannized by Spain
no expedition ever sent out from the
home country meant half so much in the
direction of civilization, oc did half so
much for the people of the islands as
will be accomplished by tbiB shipload of
Yankee school ma'ams. York Repub
lican. Walter Sharman, a young man four
teen miles west of Fullerton, was found
dead Saturday morning near his barn by
a brother. Sheriff Leach and Dr. Bar
ber went to the place and impaneled a
jury, which returned a verdict that the
deceased came to his death from a gun
shot wound inflicted by himself. He was
27 years old. He was an Englishman
by birth. He was an inmate of the
insane asylum at Lincoln six years ago.
Brooding over religious matters is sup
posed to be the cause of his mental
trouble.
A man in North Carolina was selling
standing timber walnut trees. The
man who was buying came to one very
handsome tree. He told the owner he
would pay him $50 for that tree. The
owner did not sell, but sent for experts.
He got $1,500 for the tree, (curled wal
nut) as it stood. The man who cut it
down realized $3,000 for it on the cars.
It was shipped to New York and veneer
ed one-sixth to a half an inch. The sales
were watched. The tree brought $60,

Philip Haas, oae of the Hastings
gamblers in jail at Seward swore out a
warrant against Bert Green, charging
him with gambling. A search warrant
was also sworn out, for the gambliag
implements used by Green, which it waa
claimed were in a room under the Wind
sor hotel. The door waa forced open and
all the paraphernalia used for skinning
suckers was taken out and removed to
the county jaiL Seward Blade.
The Standard Oil Co. has had several
rounds in a contest at Central City in
regard to the location of their supply oil

It seems that several citizens of the
town may possibly get into soma trouble
because they have not complied with a
city ordinance concerning sidewalks,
passed and "approved March 29, 1901.
The construction or the 'repair of all
sidewalks must be done under the di
rection of the street commissioner or the.
committee on streets, and in certain'
specified parts of the city may be of
pine lumber, but in others mentioned
must be of flagstone, oonorete, vitrified
brick, cement or tiling. If otherwise
the ordinance declares them a nuisance.
For violation of the ordinance a fine of
$5 to $20 may be imposed. Consulta
tion with the street commissioner as to
grade, material for aidewalk, eta, may
save you trouble and expense.
This month and next is when stock
will try fences between pasture land and
the corn fields. They look longingly be
tween the wires of the fence and finally
conclude to break a record and the fence
at the same time and they go through
into the com. A creeper will teach
other cattle to do mischief. It will psy
to either keep the fence in good repair or
keep an eye on the cattle. Cattle are
fond of corn and sometimes will not wait
for it to ripen. It is not a good plan to
cut up corn and throw it over the fence
unless the fence is a first-class one.
They will hang around the feeding place
and some are almost sure to break
through. Better haul it to them and
change the place of feeding, if they are
to be fed in the pasture. It paya to feed
cattle in pasture if the pasturage is
insufficient Iowa Homestead.

little more than a week. And such a
week! For enjoyment, novelty and
interest it will eclipse anything in your
experience.
The air is delicious cool as cool can
be. The scenery is magnificent and the

springs, lakes, and canons is enjoyable
in the highest degree.

Osteopathy, the Dragleat Science.
It is a means of curing diseases, with
out the use of drugs or the knife, by
using the hands to remove any pressure
on the nerves, arteries and veins, so that
the circulation of the fluids and gases of
the body will be restored to a normal
condition. It is based on a knowledge
of the anatomy, physiology and chem
istry of the human body. Osteopathy
cures all curable diseases.
The suspensory treatment cures curva
tures and all abnormalities of the spine,
when all other methods fail. This device
is something new, and we would be glad
to have those who have spinal troubles
call and investigate this new treatment.
Consultation and examination free.
