The reviews have been shortened and interfered with by the rains , much of tlio company work has been broken up by the weithor. The tents and the grounds have been damp nnd wet day and night and as a result It lias been a most disagreeable time in so fur us the weather could make it. Not- witiistitndlng nil this the soldiers are united in their expression that it has been a great time and it would require a long stretch of the imagination to tell what kind of a time it would have been under smiling skies and fair weather. Ycster- dav the entire brigade was expected lo make 11 marching detour through the city but tliu streets were practically impassa ble and it would have rosl tlio state a new uniform for every man in line if the march had been made.

The competitive drill for the gov ernor's challenge cup occurred in the morning hours yesterday and was wit nessed by a largo crowd. This is a drill by companies , and as the companies in the Second regiment have but just been organized , only companies in the first regiment were competitors. Adjutant General Colo. Lieutenant . S. Dudley aud Colonel S. J. Shirley were the judges of the drill , which did not terminate until 1 p. m. Company E , of Fremont , was an easy winner aud the work of the company was exceptionally line. THE FATE OF A DESERTER. Rufus Hood , the deserter from the Fairbury company , lias found the way of transgression against military discipline hard. When he waa arrested at Beatrice he was lodged in jail over night and brought back to camp the next morning. Since tliat time ho has been in the guard house , under guard , awaiting sentence that was reached yesterday. Captain F. M. Dorrington , of company K , Captain li. F. Arnold , of company K , and Cap- lain William Hisholl jr. , of COM puny C , were detailed by Colonel Sweet to near the case. The mini plead guilty to tlio charge of desertion , but liku the Missouri justice who , when a horse thief plead guilty took the evi dence in the case to ecu if the thief was tolling the truth , the court martial took evidence in tlio case against Deserter Rood. Their ( hiding was that Hood should bo reprimanded publicly before the regiment , forfeit his pay and commu tation , deliver his arm * and uniform to thu company and bo dishonorably dis charged. The judge advocate general , Major John C. Watson , approved of the iihding and the public reprimand and dismissal from the service waa ono of the incidents m the proceeding yesterday afternoon. SOLDIER EDITORS. It in ft noticeable feature of Camp Thayer that there uro a number of news- k - paper men in camp.

There was a political conven tion in Gage county. COUNT ! ' t'OUTlCS. To-day the Lancaster republican county convention meets and all day yes terday the candidates were rushing among the delegates trying to determine just what they had to count upon. Iho fact , however , seems to bo generally ac- copied that nothing was Ihmlly settled at the primaries. The contest for district judge la yet an unknown quantity as to results , although the candidacy of Allen Field was a good deal dampened by the results in several of the wards. The fact that Field is fairly chronio m Booking of lice is no recommendation to him in the race. The convention to-day promises to bo lively from opening to close. HHIKF ITEMS. Police court was lightly attended yes terday. Only the usual number of plain cascs'of intoxication called the attention of the judge. Auctioneers Pace and Rhodes con ducted a successful cattle sale for a gen tleman from Iowa , the sale being made near this city Thursday. A half dozen towns in the state uro figuring on lot sales which this tirm are to handlo. The homo club have had much rest tins week from playing base ball and the dis ruption of southern clubs in the league promises to cut down their next southern trip to four days. A contest with Denver is the present schedule. Tlio now electric light company are getting their machinery in place in the basement of tlio Masonic tcinplo , and by November their plant will bo in opera tion. Paving work has been stopped by the weather for a week , itnd absolutely no progress is being made on account of dampness. Mr. H. T. Clarke is expected on the Held daily.

Itaplcl Btoiingrnptilc Writing. Iloston Herald : It is believed that stenograpcrs in this section , as well as those naviug occasion to employ them , will bo interested in the result of a test as to the possible speed of stenography , which took place at the convention of the Now York State ' Stenographers' associa tion , at Alexandria ISay , N. Y. , August 10 and 17at which the writer was present. The test was in consequence of an offer of a $50 gold medal to any stenographer who should write 250 words a miiuito for live consecutive minutes , from reading of now matter , and should road it back cor rectly. The offer was made by Mr. A. P. Little , of Rochester , a member of the Now York State Stenographers' associa. tion , and was made by reason of state ments which have appeared from time to time regarding phenomenal rates of speed attained by western stenographers. Mr. Little's challenge was n very sweeping ono. and the pri/.o offered , to gether with the renown to be gained by tlio person who .should curry it oil' , was calculated to attract to the contcbt each stenographer who believed that ho could perform the feat. In fact , during the year that the oiler has been before the stenographic public , Mr. Little has re ceived letters , for tlio most part from western stenographers , deriding him , in n measure , for his disbelief in the possi bility of performing the feat , and , by im plication at least , claiming superiority for the western reporters over those of the cast , generally stating that unless sickness or death should intervene the writer or ono of his friends would bo on hand and carry off the pri/.o , The fact that but two stenographers presented themselves as candidates for gold and laurels viz , Mr. Fred Irlanti , of Detroit , aud Mr. Isaac L. Dement , of Chicago would seem to indi cate that the year past has bcon an un healthy one among fusr stenographers. Of Messrs. Irbuul and Doment only the latter made the trial , the result showing that Mr. Little know what ho was talk ing about. Mr. Irlund read to Mr. Dement from a printed copy of notes of testimony supplied by Mr. Little ; n com mittee consisting of Mr. iiishop and Mr. Thornton , members of the association , and Mr. Kaston , a stenographer practic ing in Washington , making the selec tions of matter. Mr. Doment tried three times to accomplish his object , but failed , although thu results indicated that ho was a Iirst-class stenographer , and that possibly ho might have mot with bettor success in & trial loss calculated to upset his nerves , if indeed , he has any , than bo- fora any assembly composed of forty or lifty competent stenographers , three of whom bold watches in their hands , as a committee , the major ity of the lomainder keeping time and watching the lightning-like move ments of his pencil for their own satis faction. On one trial Mr. Dement wrote after a reading 1,21)3 ) words in u'vn min utes , an average of 258-2-5 words per minute , but failed to got all of it , though the committee reported , as the writer re members , that ho made but threa minor errors and ono flagrant ono. The other tests wore failures , ono by reason of Mr. Irland making a miscalculation and resiling but 1,200 words in the live min utes , It not being known how near Mr. Dement came to writing the 1,200 words , whether he did it or not. Ono of the elements upon which Mr. Little relied was the extreme difficulty of reading or speaking 1,200 words in tire minutes. On the whole , Mr. Little was proved to have a fair idea of what could bo done in writing shorthand than ha was given credit for , while Mr. Doment proved himself to bo entitled to bo rated among the tirst-class stenographers ol the country , of whom the statement lias baon made , and not gainsaid , that there are not more than forty in the United States. Young or middle-aged men suffering from nervous debility , loss of memory , urematuro old age , as the result of bad habits , should send 10 cents in stamp : for largo illustrated treatise suggestin ; unfailing pure.

PLAYING FARO BY TELEGRAPH How the Gambling Law is Oleverly Evaded in Cincinnati. A VERY INTERESTING SYSTEM. Uovr the Boys Win nnd liooo by Elec tricity 1'roinlnent Business men at the Dux How the Scheme la Worked. Cincinnati Enquirer : Faro is played In Cincinnati by tclcgaph. This may bo astonishing information but nevertheless it is true. While in Cincinnati , the largest town of the state , gambling houses are closed , the game is in full blast in nearly every other city In tlio stato. In Clevclani Columbus , Toledo , Chillicotho , Nowa i , Washington C. II. and Xcnia the gainii flourishes with unwonted vigor , nnd nearly every one of these towns has good support for their names by telegraph from Cincinnati , lot so quietly has tbo scheme been worked that as much as En quirer reporters circulate in all classes aud grades of society the matter was never understood until recently. A few days ago an Enquirer reporter was in the city of Columbus. While there ho met n well known knight of the green cloth who formerly ranked high in Cin cinnati sporting circles. "No gambling going on 'n ' Cincin nati ? " ho remarked , with a smile , after ho had greeted the Enquirer emissary. "Nary a game. " "Chief Doitsoh has closed 'em all up and no one can bet on faro ? " "Nary a bot. " "Suppose I should tell you that both you and Chief Dcitsch are fooled , and that faro is PLAYKl ) KVKKV1IAV IN CINCINNATI , and sometimes heavily nt that.- " "I would say you are certainly mis taken. " "What do you say to this ? " said the young man , with a sort of chuckle , us ho pulled from a bunch of telegrams in his hand ono which read as follows : "Call the turn six jack the first time you catch the two cards mimed in the box at the end of the deal for $ 13.50. " "Why , it's faro by telegraph. " "Certainly , that's ' just what it is. " "Is much of it done1'- " 3fiS ! , considerable. You know , there are lots of young business and profes sional men in Cincinnati who like to dally with the arne occasionally. I be lieve the thing lirst started with a crowd of those young gentlemen. They were all together ono night m Cincinnati , hav ing a gay timo. Ono of them remarked that ho longed for a go ugaiust the old gamo. Another of the party suggested that they telegraph a bet up there , just for fun. They all jumped at the propo sition ns a novelty. Filteon minutes later a dealer in n well-known game here received a dispatch ordering him to bet § 25 on TUB ACE TO WIN. then it came cases. Ho did so , and it won. There was further telegraphic correspondence , which terminated by tlio Cincinnati crowd pulling out nearly flOO winner. The last dispatch that night was : "Wo are going out to open a case of wine and paint the town red on your money. " Since then the thing lias noun going on regularly. Ouo man in Cincinnati , popular in society and in business circles , who has a passion for playing the high card , telegraphs up ? 10 or | 20 on the high card to win nearly every night. Ho is about u stand off now but it used to bo a well-known fact among Cincinnati gamblers that this man was away winner betting on the high card. " "Do you over get minute particulars as to what kind of a play to make ? " "Certainly. They designate the sys tem , and describe how they want it phiyQdout. " "Isn't that very expensive don't the telegraph tolls eat up the winnings' : " "No. The fact is , the player econo mizes in the end. Take it in Cincinnati , for instance. When a regular player woultl make a winning he would always taUo some follow who was sitting around to $ ! ) or $10 to play with , would give the case-Hooper a couple of dollars , then buy u few rounds of drinks down stairs. So , you see , its about an oven thing after all. " "How do you manage it about collect ing and paying out ? " . MARKERS 1'UT UP. "Somo players telegraph their money up , and we telegraph it back when they close their play if they witi. The well known men. however , the parties wo would put up markers for in Cincinnati , do not do this , They telegraph simply their orders and \vu put up our markers. If they lo'o they soud us a chock or registered lottor. If tiiey win wo treat thorn the same way. Como to think of it , we got two registered letters from Cincinnati yesterday. One was from one of the best known business men in the Bottoms. Ho knocked us out of $500 the previous week , though. "Who do they generally couimuuiuato with ? " "Many telegraph to the proprietors or dealers of the game direct , and their plays are made with us much fidelity us if they wcro on hand to manipulate the chips themselves. Others deal through the outsiders or curb-stono men , but they have to split up thu money with them and it is not so profitable. " TESTING IT AT HOME. Amazed beyond compare with what ho had heard and sconthe reporter returned to Cincinnati , determined to open a little investigation. Last night about 8 o'clock ho strolled into ono of the popular Vine street resorts where he know some of the lly boys about town used to congregate Saturday evenings bcforo starting out for a good timo. Ho had not been in the place very long before ho was startled by tlio remark a prominent young man at one of the tables made to his three com panions. It was this : ' "Let's make up a pool of $100 , nnd bo in and in to-night. No use of all of us go ing in separate and playing against ouo nnnttint * . " The reporter know thcra all well , and dctcrniinud to llnd out what waa going on , so ho made a bold bluff to got on the inside. 'Just making up a little pot to go ngainst Columbus to-night , 1 Hiipposul" he remarked to ono of the crowd. "What do you moan ? " was the rejoin der , with au air of profound surprise. " ( .Hi , como now. I know all about the scliomo. Everybody here is playing faro in Columbus now by tcle raph. I hope you will win , boys. " Seeinc that the newspaper man was fully informed , and oztracting a promise not to be giVen away us far as names wcro concerned , the boys then took the reporter into their confidence , and the following rather lengthy dispatch soon flashed over the wires : THE I'AHO nilDER. "To Mr. , No. street , Colum bus , O. : Take the tray of spades , throw It out of a window and note after it alights if the spots fall next to the grounder or are presented to the blue hearens above. In case the spots fall next to tbe ground play cross color * , coppering the spades and hearts , and playing the clubs and diamonds open. 1'lay only cases. Let the lirst bet be for $12.50. In case you win this bet pre. s the next ffl.23. but pinch fO.05 the bet following the first but in case you lose. Follow this system strictly throughout the deal , provided always you don't get broke. When it comas to the last turn , if it bo possible , call tlio turn on the system of coppering the spades and hearts , cxcopt In the case thnt there should bo.'left in the box a dctico nnd a king. In that event call tha turn dcuco king for all the money thnt you can put down. Do this in remem brance of Tom Hartshorn. In case the spots on the tray of spades previously lentioncd should bo turned tip. play .ross colors opposite to the system nbovc ncutioncd that Is , copper the clubs anil 'iamonds and play thu spadrs open. "At the end of the lirst deal ( if vott ave any velvet ) , cash in the original aplt.il and start the next deal on thn iank'8 money , and whack it to them for ,11 sho's worth. Try to win f500 , but if , 'ou get loser at any stage , keep on play- ng until you are good and broke. In ho event you are lucky at tlio start , keen aising your hots $0. ° o at a crack until 'on reach the limit , and , if possible , com- > el the dealer lo request you to pinch. " At midnight the crowd started out in a .ack on the strength of a telegram that tick was with them , and they were f 375 winners , ItEAh JSBTATE. Transfer * ; Filed September 1 , 1887.

" Mr. Honsh.iw is well known nbout town , nnd the truth of his story cnn easily bo vorlnod by calling upon or ajdrussius him nt his address above Driven. When ontnrrh 1ms existed In thn hend nnd the upoer part of thu throat for any length of time tre patlunt living In u district whuro people nru subject to cntiirrhnl affection- the ills- c BU ling boon lott tinciired , thn catiirth Invuri- nbly , sometimes slowly , extends down the windpipe and Into the bronchial tubes , which tubuHConvov the nlr to the different pirts of the lungs. The tubiH become nllected from thu HwcllltKT nnd the mui'tms tulslng from catarrh , nnd , in fromu instances , become plugpod up. BO thnt the ulr e.uinot gt'l In us troolyanlt should. tiliortno'H of hrentli follows , nnd the patient breathes with laboriuid dllllnulty. In oltlier cnso thcra Is n sound of nrnckllngr nnd trluvMlng Insldo flip chest. At this stngo of thodlsonsntho brcnthlnir Is usually more inpld than when In honlth. The patient has also hot ushus over his body. Tim pain which accompanies this condition U of a dull character , felt In the client , behind the breast bone , or under the bliouldor blndo. The pain iimycomonnd go lust few clajs and then fie nbscnt for sovoinl others. Thr cough Hint occurs In the first stuecft of bronchial catarrh U dry , comes on at Intervals , hacking In charac ter , and Is usually ino-t troublesome in tno morning on rising , or going to bed at night and It may bo In the first evidence of the disease ex tending Into the limps. Sometimes there nro fits of coughing Induced by the tough mucus so violent us to canso vom iting. Later on the mucus that Is raised. Is found to contain snuill tmrticlcs of yellow mnt- ter , which indicates that the small tubes In the lungs arc now nlfoetoii. With this there aio often streaks of blood mixed with the mucus. 7n some CUBCS the patient becomes very pnle. lias fever , and expectorates bolero any cough appears. In some cn ea small mnsscs of choesv sub- stnnro mo spit up , which , when pressed be tween the lingers , emit n bad odor. In other cases , pniticles ( it n hard , chalky nature are ( pit up. The raising of choosy or chalky lumps Indicate serious uilshicf nt work In the lungs. When a person with n delicate constitution has n tendency to caturch or consumption whether this trmdunay is inherited oricsnltfl from taking cold onplly , It Is noticeable thnt t'nut person invariably loses llnnh und losua strength , elunvlnjf Hint the nutrition Is inter fered with. In inch a cnso the sufferer pbould nt once bo placed under Inlluencos that will restore the detective nutrition and tend to invigorate the constitution. It Is to b6 romoiiibored that In every cnso the presence of catarrh IB an uvldencu of predis position to consumption , mid no mutter how KlMit the attack may be , it f-hould bo treated with the great oft cnro and the treatment should bo continued until all tiacos of the ontnrrh Imvo disappeared. If the catarrh Is nllowed to reach the smaller tubes in the lungs-whlch condition is Indi cated by the spitting up of n yellow mntoilal then Immediate attention to the nmludy Is do- nmnded or serious lung trouble will result. Catarrh , It is said , Isnlno timtsout of ten tbo cause th'it produces consumption , and hence no oiiu can afford to neglect n case of catarrh , however slight. It Is easily cured If taken in' time and treated regularly and correctly by a specialist. If loft to Itself it Is rarely cured without a changoof ollnmto. but with each new rold It gels moro nnd tuoro troublesome , ex tending always a little deeper Into the lungs , until a euro becomes dlflicult and sometimes Impossible. In such a climate ns this , the throat should bo as oiretully and frequently looked nf tor us the teeth. Vol. much moro caitilully looked to , ng trojblea of the throat nru moro numerous than dentnl troubles ; aud.whllo the latter cuu u only nnnoynnco nnd pnln , lung dl onse , usunlly tlio result of vntnrih , kill ono out of every seven human bolues born on tbo ontiru globe.
