The Hon. John L. Carson , the prosl
dent of the 1'irsl National bank of Drown
villo , Is registered with his wlfo urn
daughter nt the Millar , ! . Mr. Carson hai
been in the banning business ut Drown
villo for nearly thirty yc.ira , and lias dur
ing Unit time taken a lively Inlurcst u
political allalrs , being a staunch rooub
lican of the old school. He belongs l <
that class whoso party loyalty , howovci
strong it may be , cannot compel him t (
support a candidate who ts unworthy o.
tilaitarty. In speaking of the pulitica
situation in Neniaha county to n UIE : ru
poi ter last night , ho said :
"Howo cannot carry Neniaha countj
this year by more than 400 majority , aili
I doubt if he gets that. Two years ngt
U eaver carried the county by 800 inn
jonty over Charley lirown , and the
rounty has never gone by less than ( XX
majority republican. "
"Howe's boasted strength In his owr
county , then , can not bo rollei
upon ? " saitl tlio reporter.
"No , sir , " replied Mr. Carson. "The
fact is the greatest dissatisfaction , an
open ono too , exists. The better class ol
Nemalia republicans can not swallow
Howe and Ins corrupt methods , and the
bolt from the congressional nominee will
bo even greater than is generally looked
for. "
"You have faith , then , in the charges
that have been made against Howe ? "
"Oh , wo have known of them all
along. Howe's corrupt rccortl has boon
generally understood , hut the HBK'S spo.
oiho charges against him tiavo put the
iiuonlo to thinking more about him ,
Howe is the father of boodlers. Ho has
worked his methods so long in Nemalia
that some of our republicans , men wlic
claim to bo sincere in their loyalty to the
party , have fallen into looking upon his
methods as it matter of course ; but they
have cone as far as they will , unil
ho will run behind this year. Ol
course , many of his tools , like
Jim Stovcn.son , who was at your meet
ingin thol'ourth ward the other niirht
and who owes hi.s position with tlio B. 1X1
M. to Ilowc's inlluunoo , will stay by him
to the last , but many of his former
friends and supporters will sidetrack him
this year. "
"Stevenson's explanation ot Howe's
standing on the prohibition question was
not very clear. "
"Howe is anything to suit the crowd ,
Ho got up at a church dedication in a
Gorman settlement once in Benton precinct -
cinct and invited the congregation out to
where ho had some wine in the woods ,
but in the prohibition districts ho is in
favor of prohibition or high license , any
thing to be in accord with tlio provailin ; ;
sentiment. Howe is jusj as much of a
democrat as ho is a republican and on
this account I do not think that republi
cans ant under obligations tq give him
their support. He is for Howe lirst , last
and all the time. "

Just ns the B. & M. train pulled out oi
Lincoln yesterday afternoon , a tramp
was seen to slide nimbly under ono of the
cars and take a seat astride ono of the
brake rods. In this manner ho rode
safely to Ashland , where , when the train
came to a standstill , ho was pulled out
by the train men. The tramp started to
walk up the track , and when the train
again pulled out , going at considerable
speed , ho again grasped a. truck and
secured his former seat. At'South Bond
ho was a second time removed by the
tram men , but the passengers , who had
watched the man's daring deeds , con
cluded that he deserved a bettor fate than
boimr mangled by the cars , and so a col
lection was taken up and tlio tramp's
fare paid to Dunlap , la. In conversation
the man displayed marked intelligence ,
and it was learned that ho had but yes
terday discarded n pair of crutches which
ho had been forced to use on account oi
an accident met with some time ngo
which robbed him of tlio use of his lejrs.
One of his limbs was still very sore , and
taking everything into consideration hia
crit and ngility was something remark
able.

St. Louis Gl&lxMJoniocirnt ; I have on

to brny. Otlftif wise a fine chnu , with

docs try , it ataxies off the end of hi
tongue In n to-be-he. The fuel is further
more tbnt bo docs not laugh inside
Jokes nro not at homo anywhere ln bi
soul. Machines are. I ( tou't know om
inaohlno from another ; can hardly tell i
pii mi ) from a churn , but 1 like the dull
cato "punch-blow" shades of a goot
story. If old I'alstnft" were hero in thl
room , .this boy of iniuo would wall
nround him three or four times nnd giv <
a guess at his weight , or tell mo hi
thought him about' ono and one-half o
n horse-power. "Knickerbocker's Nov
York" i am obliged to translate to tin
chap.
What , after all , is laughter ? Here is i
friend of mine up in Michigan with sucl
a gift of laughing that lie shakos youi
rafters. Jokes snap and crackle as thoj
ily out of his mouth , while he clasps hi ;
luuids to Ills buck and roars. Unokwim
and forward ho runs/ only stopping llni
tremendous broadside long enough U
catcli breath. The last time 1 saw bin
was at the depot in A - . Unfortunately
the platform was not long enough tc
cover hLs backwuru strides , ami over lu
went. Hut ho climbed on again , will
the last half of a joke still good in hi :
mouth , and liryd it at mo as the trail
moved out. Curiously , a laugh is in
feclious , and sueli a man keeps a crowc
in a roar without exactly knowing why
John 13. dough's best thing was to tel
an audience that be intended very soot
to make thorn laugh laugh at something
silly , lie gave them preparatory notici
that what ho was going to say amountct
to nothing ; was not wortli laughing at
yet they would all laugh tnem elvo ;
tired. Then he went on coolly to do it
And they always did laugh , and then
looked at cacli other to see what the. >
were laughing at. No one over fount
out , and John Mild to them : "I told you
so. " He had the art of making langh'tor
Ho was not himself a good laugher b\
any measure. In private lie was dccid
edly a sober , mattcrof-fact man.
Can you then get at the diflorenee in
folk ? A. judge holding court for some
time , in waiting for a witness named
Sarah Money , announces at last that as
the witness is not forthcoming ho will
adjourn court "without cpre-mony. " One
of his lawyers amazed to see every one
laughing. lutftivtj ) , o way homo the joke
penetrates him , , and lie stops and hoids
on to a fencowhlle the wave nns-ps over
him. Reaching ! hrtmc ho repeats it to his
wife "the grfeite : t joke of the season. "
"Tho judge adjtJuVned the court without
Marymoney.don't , / , see the point ol
that , " insists njLUa poor woman. ' 'You
will in aboutuivOlmimites , " ho replies
"I didn't at lintc,1'.1) You say what are we

iilg on thi5f"ipjqtjf / of laughter than on
any other. \ \ b.yisit people don't like tc
be laughed ut' ? Yfliat is laughter , any
way ! Appai'cnUyju very innocent affair ;

always felt ofn/jofae as he would thu
handles of a battery , and the result was a
shooU. Ho-hiitiid a jqker. Cprwm was
corruscuting with wit ami Inn in spite of
himself. Ho was the greatest .statesman
and wit combined the country has pro
duced. He died at last as you have seen
a vast discharge of rockets Hashing and
illuminating , and then suddenly all was
darkness. Lincoln , however , was more
grim. He was not so royally a laugher
as Corwin. JJnt what would yon give to
sec the span in I'aradiso.
"Alas lor cquilibilum ! " so cried ono oi
England's greatest jokers. His theory
was that much laughter-making worn
him out. I have a Iricnd who says , "I
would give half know if , like H. over
there , I nidn't care whether I knew any
thing 'or r.ot. Oivo mo a few years ol
dead level. " There is , however , a sort ol
gentle mirth that sparkles so quiutlj1
that it produces no friction. Stevens , the
traveler , when crawling intoa hole of the
old masonry in ono of the ruined cities ol
Central America , heard a tiger roar from
within. Ho coolly remarks that the timu
ho occupied in hackiii" out "is hardly
worth the mention. " It would bo delight
ful to lie laughed at by Washington Irv
ing. Mirth makers are , as a r.ilo , not
happy men. They can see nice
bhadings of contrast , and bring
the contrast out , as when friction
makes a Hash ; but they do not dwell in
peace. Lamb and Hood were sad. Nearly
all our comedians have been noted lei
tragedy in juivnto. 1 prefer a good
laugher to u good niirtlnnakor. Tholuttci

The inutdcroiis wretch not to trivo over
his love for killing ! And to prctond it is
music ! I have u triend who lines an at1-
cordcon , nnd he asiiircs me if I only had
an ear tor it , a Scotch bagpipe wonhl
please me. I never dispute with Mich n
man.
There is not an animal that I know of
that doo-i not try to Ituigh , and maku
home approach HI it , only none of them
have as good Itiiighing-muschis us we
have. It is partly a mutter of check.
Hut what a jolly nllnir a dog i& when his
master comes homo. He splits up n
roaring laugh holwccn his head and nil ,
Between the two his whole body is eon *
tortedinto grftA thut , linally work off as
barks. Thoy'wiy'wild dog do not bark ,
It is because tljejyd [ ; > not laugh. Biologists
tell UH "tho gonn of bead and tail Ho in
the fact that the protoplasmic cell is an
oyoid. " Tluvtnmmit of the ovoid is the
polo of highest- dynamic action. Here
the food is tnfccri' in. Nature already
says hero slwlJbuX head. This is nat
urally the 'Jouijiinnt and dominating
point , Hut tlm domination is not alto
gethcr , and " at1 once , differenced
to that pttlo.vj So ages after ,
when a lii'ii\l \ IB really constructed ,
and a brain , : ( hd'\nih it are concentrated
all the higher farms of sensation , the op
posite polo still h'olds some portion oi
jxjwer. The mil of/tho bird and the do
divide with tlui'lwtt ) the function of Ian-
guag . The language of the tail of thr
robin is as oxitf cssivo as the lungungo ol
tlm tongue. Tho'tuil is never given up
by natiiro until its possible functions
have been drafted off to the hand and tht
tongue , \Vntch the taii of a cat in iU
power to. toll joy , expectation , grace ,
anger , apprehension. Dumb .inliniilbarc
not so very dumb. The emotion thai

Instnud ofquickening Ids gait my horfcc

of his tail. A cow must express hcrsoll
with tliu tail or her hoof. A cow whose
tail troubles 3011 in milking is not n
kicker. Hut of what use any longer is n

roar ? That can laugh with his eyes , tin.il
mouth and nee and t < houki > y Nature
throws it away at last as usolt'Sj. That v =
why man has no tail , lie dons not not
it to laugh with Laughing is : x trie
nature has for shaking off trouble an
shaking out the incntnl fogs. There
no time whun 1 sympathise with animn
so much as when thoy'fcel awful jell
nnd cannot tell it. Man bns the advai
tngp , not so much in bis troubles ns in h
delights. Ho cannot cry-any bettor tlia
a host of other animals. What a horribl
bcnst bo is when ho cries and screan
with pain or wrath ! Hut ho can laugh.
You should always have for a famll
doctor a man who can laugh. A laug
once saved my life. U never is so usofi
as by the way of medicament. Mydoi
tor tells n good story , and has n gonnin
smile. Snnlos are no' generally not got
nine. They are mostly grins , ha

cheerful and hopeful you catch it of bin
Lincoln , bearing the country on Insbcai
in hours of disaster , fortunately coul
laugh. George W. Julian tells us that who
Lincoln approached the laughing spot !
a good story he would lift his left foot t
Ids right knee , and , clinching his fee
with both hands and bending forward
his whole Iramo would bo convulsed wit
his .sensations of dnlight.
Washington was never known to hnv
laughed but onco. it was at Vallc ;
Jb'orge. He had ordered that whoever
olllcer or private , got drunk , should b
compelled to out , a stump in pieces
Where the camp was formed thcbRstump
were overabundant , Quo morning
while making bis tour of observation , In
came upon a soldier who was chopping
out the very last stump. Washingtoi
called to him pleasantly : "Well , Root
fellow , ftf > \ \ have found the last stump ? '
"Yes , sir , " growled the man , "and nov
when an ollicor gels drunk there won't b <
a stump left tor him. " The genera
laughed heartily und looked at Ids otll
cors , as if there were some of them entitled
titled to fool relief.
Thoreau know a good laugher once
and tells us a good deal about him it
"Waldon" : "when I approached hln ;
he would suspend his work , Ho alone
the trunk of a pine which ho bad felled
and. peeling off the inner bark , ohcwei
it while ho laughed and talked. Such ai
exuberance of animal spirits had he tint' '
he sometimes tumbled down and rolled
on the ground with laughter at anything
that tickled him. Looking around at tin
trees lie would exclaim : 'By George , 1
can enjoy myself wull enough hero cnop
ping ; 1 want no better sport. ' As ho bat
on a log to eat his dinner the clilcku
decs would light on his arms and peck ai
the potato in his lingers , tie said lu
liked the Httlu fellows about him. ' '
Thorcau's own laughter is of the silcnl
sort. I am afraid he laughs at me per
sunnily occasionally. What we cal
laught.or is only the explosion. Laugh
ter itself is not a noise.
Carlyle , in "Sartor Resartus , " tells ol
laughter that takes in the whole man
from head to heels. There are as ninnj
styles of laughing ns there are laughers
Ono begins slowly , the fun gently creep :
out along the risible muscles , then tin
bands Ily up , the feet Ily out , and tin
mouth Hies open. This man becomes tin
victim of a joke , for it is very dillieull tc
stop when no gets to a reasonable max !
mum. Tom Jones that is not his name ,
but that makes no difference here novel
laughs without such a rush of blood tc
his head th.it I am afraid for his life.
Conceited laughter wags the head tc
and fro , as if to say : Yon see I take tin
joke ; I am quick to catch. Dr. Overwooi
never laughs exeepts at his own joke1-
These please him. Ono of them will lasi
him for half an hour. I have known bin
to be all day ut a joke and so in capita !
humor all day. But my friend L. hn <
only seven jokes , and these lie has gone
over and over till wo all know them and
when to expect them. So wo begin tf
Jaugh beforehand , and that's the fun o !
it. His Monday joke and his Tuesday
joke never get transferred. His Sundaj
joke is a general article , adapted to tht
clay and liable ! to niake us better men. Hi
sits at the end of our table and carves om
beet and our fun.
