The efforts of the republican machine
organ in Lincoln to boom Dnwus and
nmko Ills dupnrting days a sort of halo
of glory tire fairly astonishing at times and
nro tiiiulo with a disregard to fucU fairly
nppalling. In Thursday morning's Jour
nal the following booming dispatch \vi\s
given a prominent position. It was a
fipoclal dispatch from Norfolk , and pre
sumably the special artist thurc was fol
lowing instuictlons :
Governor Dawa4 arrived this evening and
wnrecel\eu with much unthusliHin. Th < )
military band of Fort Nlubratn w.\s at the
ncpol to wdcomo and recclvu tuo covernor
who was escorted from tlio ilupot to his quar
ters by a Innru body ol the Q. A. It.
lint how ( lill'crunt the actual fa ta in
the case , for the governor has not been at
Norfolk at all and dispatches o ( n day
later stated that Mr. Dnwcs wivs down in
Sallno county struggling with hi < ? hackers
to lix up the primaries .so that his politi
cal end might bo delayed , if possible , fern
n few mouths longer , and so that his ar
rangements to keep open house this win
ter with a stud'ed senatorial boom for the
entertainment o ( the legislators who
might not bo wholly and Irre-
tlovably lost. In fact , nt the
time that the Journal , through
its dHptitch , has the military band and
the ( . A. K. boys oicortlng Dawcsfrom
the depot at Norfolk amid banners and
s , that fnnetionary was noted by a
traveler at the depot at Crcto , a hundred
and lifly miles away. Perhaps there was
mtithod in this locating the governor in
the midst of an applauding camp-lire for
public attention , while the ollicial him-
Belt was looking over his scarified fields
down in Saline Perhaps the veterans at
Norfolk , with their bands and boqucts ,
would have gone wild over the advent of
the governor In their midst , as the dis
patch would make onu bollovo , and then
perhaps they wouldn't. Judging from
the harl karl time that his backers wore
having down In his home county , where
lin Is known the best , to keep the people
from rising en masse and murnifying him
politically , the governor would not have
ills cars split with the blare of brass
bands in any part of thn state , with the
one exception of the Duchy of Matliow-

The board of public lands and build

viHlt to the now insane hospital at Nor-
lolk , and report the building as all under
roof and the finishing wqrk well under
way. Under the law the contractor
could not dr.iw any pay for work until
the roof was on the building , but the
fmmo being completed , 00 per cent of tha
contract is now ready to bo paid over , to
him. The contract price of the asylum
was $04,000 , , exclusive of steam heating
and plumbing.
The rumored disturbance at the Insane
hospital hero has not been ferreted out ,
find neither the board or others expect to
get at the facts , for nq castle in feudal

Yesterday three cases were Hied with
the clerk of the district court forttivorco
mid the reputation Lancaster county lias
oven as being prolific In legal separa
tions promises to bo maintained at the
next sitting of Uio court. Ono of the
cases relates n man's sull'tirings. another
n woman's sutlerings , and the other peti
tion is made by u woman.
NL'MUKH ONE
is n case brought by Rebecca. Klock-
nioyer against Henry Klookmoycr ,
mid the petition recites that Ho-
bccca was a widow possessed of
wroperty : that she married n preacher
mid that in the years that they have lived
together it has boon a case of her money
and her labor that has supported them.
In the language of the petition , also , It Is
related that a few months after marriage
thu plaintiff found that instead of having
for a husband an humble follower of the
incok and lowly Nnziirono , that she had
nn ugly , abusive man , whoso abuse drove
her children from homo and has nuulo
life to her a burden. Therefore , she
prays to bo released from matrimony and
to have the property ,
CASK Nt'HHUIl TWO
is brought by Anna Fries against John
1'rios , whom it would sucm uro parties
from Pawnco county , and the plaintill'ru-
cites that she has not been supported for
fifteen months and that her husband re
fuses to li\u with her and says ho loves
her not. The plaintiff alleges that the
defendant has cloven thousand dollars
worth of land in Pawnee county , and she
iiska the court , in addition to a divorce ,
that she bo granted her rightful shuru in
these premises ,
TIIK THIUQ CASK
. is ono whoruln the man
recites the harrowing fact that
lie is the abused and his wife is the
nirg sslvo party. This is the case of
ilUKU lilanoy against Mary Ulanoy. The
petition which is drawn up readalike
a aociuty novel and almost brings tears
> the eyed in the reading , sola up ex
treme cruelty , and the man compHins
that lug wife , with others , have repeat
edly called him a hog , said ho ought to
bo in the pen with the other convicts ,
has threatened to shoot and poison him ,
mid lias had him tried for adultery nt
which tlmo she assaulted him in open
court and had to bo taken in charge by

Attention is called in the introduction to

officials and directors containing 30,000
names. It contains a tabular statement
khowing the dividends paid by all the
roads of the United States for the last
eight years , with the periods of their pay
ment , whether , annually , semi-annually
or quarterly ; also statements showing
the highest and lowest quotations ,
monthly , for eight years , for the active
stocks and bonds dealt in at the leading
fctook exchange of the country. In re
gard to the increased fullness ami uni
formity secured in reports from more
than 1.000 companies , acknowledg
ment is made by the editors to the
railroad commission in the various states.

Kew York Sun ,
This is a very interesting question , nnd
students of vital statistics have devoted
much attention of recent years to search
ing for an answer to it :
"Will you Kindly tell mo w'hcther the av
erage length of human life Is Increasing or
diminishing ? "
The statisticians of England figure out
that Ufa in that country has somewhat
increased in duration during the hist
generation , and sanitarians attribute tlio
gain to the bettor care which has been
taken of the public health since what is
called sanitary science has becomu a
subject of special study. The great loss
of life has always boon ut the beginning ,
in Infancy , nnd public hygiene directs Its
oliorts towards the prevention of the filth
diseases which more particularly test
the endurance of children under live
years of age.
But is the vital condition of the race
improving ? Dr. Thomas S. SoKinskoy of
Philadelphia writes an elaborate paper
in the Medical and Surgical Reporter to
express his doubt as to whether that is
so , nnd presents an array of figures of
the mortality in England and the United
States which will not give our correspondent
pendent much comfort.
It appears from our census of 1880 that
of a hundred deaths reported during the
census year. 40 were of persons under
live years , 63 of persons under twenty ,
only 22 of persons over fifty , and only
10 of those over seventy. These figures
Dr. Sozinskoy calls astounding ; but the
returns of child mortality in the cities
was oven moro startling. The proportion
tion of deaths under Hvo years of ago is
reported for the whole Union at 43.7 per
1.000 of living population , fiwhilo in the
cities which register deaths it was 88.4
per 1,000. Apparently , therefore , the
mortality among children was twice ns
great in the cities as in tlio country , but
really the larger urban figures are in
part explained by the circumstance that
in the cities thn deatli returns are moro
complete than these in the country.
Deaths under Hvo years also are less
likely to bo reported than these of older
persons , and , therefore , the percentages
of deaths at different ages above live
years given by the census nro , as Dr.
Bozinskey remarks , much greater than
they ought to be. Even as the table
stands the average ago at dcatii is not
far up in thu twenties.
In England and Wales , where the vital
statistics nro accurate , the deaths from 5
to 20 years of ago in 16SO were less than
8 per cent of the whole , ns against over
13 per cout In the United Stated. From
SO to 05 they were 31 per cunt there , and
in the United SUxtiis from 20 to 60 tbuy
were 24 per cout. In England the deaths
of persons over 75 were about equal to
thu deaths over 70 hero. In England and
Wales only 33 per oent of the deaths
were of persons over 45 years , and in the
United States only 80 per cout were of
these over 40 years.
Where is human life longest , think you ,
good friend ? lu Franco ana in Ireland ,
in poor , tortured , distressed Ireland ,
whoso people , as Dr. Sozinskey says , nro
supposed to bo peculiarly oblivious to
sanitary sclonco. Nearly live In n hund
red of the deaths in-Ireland nro of per
sons over 85 , only about 35 per cent are
under SO ; about 43 per cent , or nearly
one-half , are over 45. Franco is nnothur
country which IS regarded as behind the
ago with respodt to sanitary science , and
yet 48 per cent ot the deaths are of per
sons over .V ) , 25 per cent over 70 , only 20
per rent of children under 5 years and
only 0 per cent of yoiibg people from 5
to 20. '
Dr. Sozinskoy therefore comes to the
conclusion that the vital condition of the
people of Knslund and the United Status
is ' 'lamentably unsatisfactory. " And ho
looks very skeptically on the asserted Increase -
crease in the length of life there and
here. Ho contend" , too , that "If the phy
sical condition of the people ot Ireland ,
n people poor and comparatively ignor
ant of sanitaiy science , is immensely su
perior to that of cither , there must bo In-
tluences nt play in both England nnd the
United States which much moro than
counterbalance all the beneficial effects
of the sanitary scioncn In practice In
either country. " The lives of some chil
dren may bo saved , but the people die
young. The intlucnccii working against
thu race ho holds to bo thu artificial
mode of existence in civilized countries.

Salt Lake Tribune : A gentleman from
Nevada and another from Kansas were
sitting witli a Coloradoan on'tho Walker
house poreh Sunday evening during tlio
lively little dust storm which drove every
body else indoors and filled all eyes , cars ,
and pores exposed with Utah soil.
"I'vo been nero quite awhile , " said the
Nevada man , "but I'vo ' never seen a
wind hero yet that amounted to any
thing. 1 tell you that Nevada is the
plnco whcro they have winds. I'vo soon
the wind come up there all in a min
ute and everything would fly. Cobble
stones , and signs , and tin cans , nnd bar
rels , and dogs , and goats would all go
down the street together. Ono day I
saw the ( tin from a roof over 100 feet
long rolled up by the diploma of n young
girl graduate and carried the whole
length of the town in Virginia City , nnd
and as soon ns it got beyond the city
limits , wliero there was nothing to break
the force of the wind , it just spread that
roof out like a tablecloth , and tore it into
shreds like it was tissue paper. "
"That's nothing , " sarcastically remarked -
marked the Kansas gentleman ; "you can
talk as much ns you like about high
winds , but I'm tolling you that Kansas is
the banner state for zephyrs. Why , that's
whore wo have cyclones and corkscrew
winds. You rend a good deal about cy
clones in the newspapers , but you never
bee a word about the corkscrew gales ;
you bet you don't. Any man who tiarod
to publish a word about them would bo
lynched ! If people outside know about
them it would stop immigration andspoil
the prospects of the whole state.
"Those corkscrew winds just wind
around and twine into all sorts of places
in the most eccentric manner possible.
There have been several ci < ses of people
haying their neCka'ftTiing just like you'd
twist a chickente1 head off. People who
understand tha country all build their
fences in the tract of climate where these
winds prevail so as to have their post holes
dug for them. Tvo'seen a pile of lumber
stand near the site 'of a fence for three
months waiting for'ono of these breezes ,
just because the owner was too slack and
lazy to dig tlio bolus and so kept waiting ,
from day to day , hoping for a breeze.
It's a risk , though , because there might
happen to come along an unusually big
blow and dig1 n collar , out in that
case the man 'wonld probably build n
house where ho Intended to put a fenco.
I'vo seen ono of them gales enter a win
dow what had boon left open and cork
screw a baby out of its crib and twist the
bedclothes into a coil so hard that they
could only be separated by an ax. I'vo
seen a cook stove wnlteou into the mid
dle of the room , and all sorts ot things
like that occur during these kind of
winds. You don't have much wiud in
Colorado , dojon ? "
"Well , no , " said the Coloradoan , "wo

like them anywhere else. They are what
you might call discriminating breezes ,
They don't have so much force as some
combined nir I'vo hoard of , but what
they do counts. They don't seem to
penetrate like a Now England north
easter , but still they do penetrate a little
way , and they have their effect , too. A
northeaster , you know , will cut right
into a man's bones and marrow , and
chill him to the quick , These sisrns of
Boreas do not penetrate but a llttlo way ,
and they blow funny , too. I've ' seen a
man go along a srreot , and it would bo
blowing a hurricane on ono sldo of him.
and on the other side it would bo a dead
calm , I'vo seen n mule stand braced
against the wind blowing behind her.
with bar tali blown right UP straight , and
ono ear put away ahead of her nose ,
while the ear on the other aldo would be
in a natural , calm position , and that side
of the beast would bo sweating ! It will
tnho the skin off one side otyour face and
not touch the other. I saw n man with
whiskers go ono Hide of his face shaved
by a wind like that , as clean as any bar-
bar could do it. A small boy and a dog
wore walking with him at the time , and
they each lost ono oar. I'vo soon n man
lose ono leg of his pants and a coat-tall ,
and get his hat khockcd all over on ono
side. They don't do any particular damage -
ago , these winds , but they are ns pocu-
liur as they can bnl"
