price , and deposited $0,700 with the court
as a guarantee. At the same tlmo the at
torneys for the plaintiir , who bad been
clamoring for a confirmation , suddenly
changed front and asked the court to set
the sale aside , and Mr. Hansom of Ne
braska City , representing the purchasers
vigorously denounced the Johnson bid as
a job on the part of the plaintifl'to freeze
out the lawful owners and beat the cred
itors by another sale , at which they could
bitl the property in for about ? 10OCO.

tiulliurin : church at Nebraska City , was
placed before Judge Pound yesterday on

that some time ago Dartling and some of
his associates seceded and joined the
Nebraska , synod , contrary to their
pledges , and greatly to the injury of the
good name and morals of the German
Lutheran church , at the same time at
tempting to hold the building for the

Tc justify their excessive charges on
short hauls , tlin railroad men always
ofer to the alleged higher expense on
heir short hauls. There is some little
ruth in thu statement , that short hauls
; ire somewhat more expensive though
tot near enough to nutku tnis higher
'xpens.o a justification of I lie outrageous
overcharges on short hauls.
But however that may be. the rail-
oad man ought to ncknnwlcdgo the
obligation , in accordance with his own
theory , to make- the chargeproportion -
utoly lower , the longer the haul is. Hut
lie is not consistent enough to do it ,
especially not when poor Nebraska is
concerned.
On the St. Paul-Chicago route , a ills-
anco of not quito 500 miles , the charge
on wheat is ! 20 cents per 100 iiouiuls.cqual
to 80 could per ton per milo. On the
[ onto from Missouri river points to Chicago
cage , a little over 500 miles , it is 23 cents
[ ) er 100 pounds , equal to ! )0 ) cents per ton
ocr milo , and the average charge from
Nebraska to Chicagoan , average distance
of COO miles , is 41 cants per 100 pounds ,
equal to $1.37 per ton per mile. The
'ouger the haul the higher the rate. In
his way they violate their own princi
ples and deny their own theories , when
ever they have a chance to squce/.is more
out of the people that are unable to re
sist.
sist.Wo
Wo in Nebraska must pay 57 cents
more per ton , or in other words a 71
per cent higher ralo than Minnesota pays
because , as the robber says , they have
the drop on us , and the people have not
courage enough to defend themselves , as
they easily could , if they would use
their votes in the right way.
In Illinois also they have a lower rate
for a shorter haul , than wo have in Ne
braska for our long haul. The Illinois
charge for 100 pounds of wheat 400 miles
is a small fraction over 18 cents , equal to
1)0 ) cents per ton per milc.whilo Nebraska
for COO miles must pay 41 cents , equal to
$1.37 per ton per milo. Wo , consequent
ly are charged 47 cents more per ton per
mile , than the Illinois people , which is
for our long hauls , a rate 58 per cent
higher than for short hauls in Illinois ,
though according to railroad testimony
the long haul is by far cheaper than the
short hauls.
This proves that the railroad men
themselves don't believe in their own
theory of the expcusivcncss of short hauls
and the cheapness of long hauls , not any
more than they believe in their own
doctrine , that the cost of railroad trans
portation cannot bo calculated.
But they consider these theories a nice
stock in trade , to blind the people with ,
and to silence those , who have not time ,
to give suflicicnt attention to these
matters.
Girls nt the Now York Charity Ball.
"There was quito a tendency shown in
many of the costumes worn at the charity
ball last week for stagy efl'ects , " says the
Now York World , "somo of the young
girls looking like tbo traditional 'Night1
and 'Morning' in their black or white
gowns , bespangled with silver or gilt
stars , or like the old time angels of tlio
boards who was taken urj into the clouds
in the lost act on a moving scene. The
change in evening dress for voting girls
has been very radical. For the last two
seasons it has boon the thing for a girl to
look like a very a-'sthclic statuet , slim ,
sad-oycdand , pooticwhen. presto cliango !
this year she bursts f9rth like the flowers
that bloom in the spring , tra laskirtupon
skirtplied like Ossa on Pelion , until she
resembles a floating mist. It is the
old story of tlic chrysalis and the butter-
lly. Last year she was folded up in the
narrow confines of a stately silken gown ,
with clinging skirts ; this season she
spreads herself like a green bay tree. In
the matter of dress , however , whatever is
is right , especially when the dress IB worn
by a pretty girl. So one becomes easily
reconciled to any change. Certainly the
girls at the charity ball were very bewitching -
witching in their now gowns. The charm
of the present style is its freshness and
girlishness. There was a great contrast
shown between the toilets of tbo maids
and these of Iho matrons Tuesday night ,
and this is at it should bo. Tulle and
muslin seem to bo a girl's prerogative ,
and she never appears so lovely as when
arrayed in these iilmy fabrics ; but the
addition of gilt spangles is perhaps in
more questionable taste. It is somewhat
like painting the lily or throwing per
fume on the violet. "
An Exciting Glove Contest.
Pittsburg Chronicle : "I saw an exciting -
citing glove contest last night , " remarked
the snake editor , as ho look off his No.
11 oar-nniU'd.
"Whore was it"asked the sportinged-
itor , with great interest. " 1 don't see it
in the morning papers. "
"No. I was the only newspaper chap
there. "
"That's good ; wo will have a scoop on
it. "
"A clean scoop. Are you ready for the
details ? "
"Yes ; go ahead. "
"It was in Allegheny. "
"All right. Got it down. "
"On Fctloral street. "
"Federal street ? " In surprise.
"Yes , on Federal street. In a store. A
Troy Hill woman was trying to got a No
1 trlovo 011 a No. 7 hand. Oh , il was ox

The 1'rliiulpnl Makes a Denial of the
Charges.
To the Editor : I saw in Tuesday morn
ing's BEE an article in which it was
stated that Superintendent Urtincr had
received a letter stating that I had taken
a pistol into school and nourished it , etc.
This is wholly and entirely a lie , made up
without one partielo of foundation , as
there' has been no pistol in the case. The
facts are simply those : One of the largo
boys had been reported to the school
board for expulsion , when his father put
on his war paint and said the toucher
"must go. " After a petition to have the
teacher discharged had been in circula
tion ono day a remonstrance was started ,
and the result is as follows : The peti
tion against the teacher has nineteen
names upon it , two of which have since
signed tlio remonstrance , and of the
others some uro not legal voters ,
while the remonstrance lias thirty-
six signatures and these the
bostcitixcns of Elkhorn.and among them
the majority of tlio school board. I will
further state that Superintendent Brunei1
visited the school as stated in your article ,
and not one word was- said by ans ono
about a pistol , which shows its falsity , if
further proof were ntcessary. And fur
ther , no such dirfdrdUr has existed as was
reported. The storm lias now blown over
and the school again moves on serenely.
The attendance as largo , and , although
tlio weather has .been baa , will average
nearly , or quit ) ) , Cjqual to that ol any
month during the teem. KegrcUing the
publicity that has been given to ono of
the little outbreaks to which , it is said ,
our village is subject- subscribe myself ,
