An interesting and , in many ways , important session of the board of trade vas hold last evening , several import ant manufacturing plants being up for consideration as a result of recent cor respondence of Secretary Utt. A com munication from a steel barb wire factory of Cedar Falls was rightly recog- lii/.cd as one of the most promising in- Btiiutions for the city that had oflercd itxolf for so mo time. This company is looking for a location for a branch factory nnd propobo to commence opera tions with a plant that will turn out a Car load of wire daily. In the heart of iv territory where much of this product IB Ufecd its manufacture is in direct line for Blip ply , and a plant of this character tvould bo n , growing one. The Decorah ( la. ) Pupor Mill company wrote an iti- iorebting letter to Secretary Utt regard ing the transferring of their plant to Lincoln to reach a central territory euch as Nebraska otters. Communica tions in regard to location from the Heading Lock Manufacturing company , of Reading , Pa. , from C. Magnus , of tiio Kaglo Brewing company , Cedar Rapids , In. , and from parties from Paris. Ont. , in regard to a woolen mill uoroalho up for a share in the discus- tion , and it was the general opinion of the board that all the plants offered ivero practical and that earnest efforts ( should be made to secure them.

His parents nnd relatives from Ansclmo and Kearney are in the city. The city council is agitated over the question of restoring the licenses to two parties which were some time since re voked on account of violation of the law. The long debate on the question at the Inst session of the city council developed the fact that the body was about equally divided and the question was passed over for another week. A bronze of excitement occurred on Eleventh street yesterday morning by a coat thief who robbed a ( lummy in front of a clothing hon o and struck for lib erty. A half doon parties across the htrcot , who saw the act , started in pur suit and tha thief shied up an alley , dropping his goods on the walk. Attention was called a short time ago to the law requiring lU'tns to file notice of their association with the county clerk. Since that time a number of linns have compiled with the law , the two latest being II. R. Missloy & Co. , dry goods , and Cnrr & Waters , contract ors. ors.Tho city council has allowed Mr. Lnm- bortson'a bill in the celebrated contempt case in which ho appeared for the mayor and council. His bill was $1,000 for bcr- vices and expense account of $2.r 0 , the council drafting an ordinance pro viding for the payment. The committees from the local G. A. U. posts are actively at work in the de tail arrangements for the coining en campment to be hold the last of Febru ary. The committee will have the meetings at Rcprchontativo Hall's nnd every hotel in the city will bo asked to give special rates. The cra/.y man who was riding around the county armed witli a gun has been declared insane , but ns the hospital is overflowing the sheriff has him in custody at the jail. The need of the opening of the new asylum at Norfolk is pressing. "It's only a question of time , " and a short time , too , as to when your rheu matism will yield to Hood's Sarsapurilla. Try it. LIFE AMONG THE BUSHMEN. SIiccp-HcrtlliiK In Houth Australia "Sundowners" and Hronchos. South Australian correspondence of the San Francisco Chronicle , Nov. 20 , 1887 : The Australian sheep-farmer on a largo scale usually rents a tract of sev eral square Tnilcs from the government , at a rent calculated according to the number of sheep the land is capable of "carrying. " Ho is called a "squatter , " because in early days ho simply took up , or squattcoron , any unoccupied land. Some of the wealthiest men in Aus tralia arc squatters. Ono of these , Sir Samuel Wilsonof Ercildouno , Victoria , gave $160,000 to build a hall , called the Wilson hall , for the University of Melbourne. Ho now resides in England , where he has become a con servative in politics and rents Hughon- don Manor , which belonged to the Earl of Boaconsliold. The squatter who be comes wealthy often ceases to live on his station and comes to the capital city of his colony , whore ho builds himself a hnndsomo house , becomes a member of the legislative council and of the swell city club. The Melbourne club , the most elegant club in Australia , consists chielly of squatters. But such n man looks Very different when you too him in the "bush , " wearing rough clothes , and not improbably smoking a short clay pipe. The great danger to which the squatters - tors is exposed is drought. There is a great want of rivers and perennial streams , an an unusually dry season or two may reduce a man from aflluenco to poverty. In South Australia pastoral leases are granted for twenty-one year at a rental of 25 cents per head on the average number of cattle , and of 4 cents on the average number of sheep. At the end of the term , the land reverts with all improvements to the crown. The gov ernment ou resuming the land at the expiration of the lease pays for all dams , tanks and wells of a permanent character. Solitary as the life of n shepherd insole solo charge of a tlock is , many men be come much attached to the freedom and healthy nature of the work , and \\ould bo most unwilling to exchange it for any other. The "bushmon" are not infrequently great readers , and it is for their especial benollt that the largo weekly editions of the principal Aus tralian papers arc issued. When a visitor from the old country strikes a head station to the proprietor of which ho hits an introduction , ho is welcomed as a bringer of news and ideas from the outside world , and if ho proves agreeable his stay is made very plcumiiit to him.- As a rulu the bushman drinks tea , for ho iinds this the most wholesome and refreshing drink and also the most port able. Of course on occasions largo quantities of whisky are consumed , but bushmcn as a class are temperate. The horses used on a station are rough look ing , but possess great endurance , fre quently caraying their riders 120 to 140 miles in a day. Men wear riding breeches , top-boots , tlannel shirts and felt hats. Bushmen frequently hnvo to find their way in parts ? of the bush whore tracks cither never existed or have become obliterated. Then it is that their bush- mnnshii ) comes into play. Some of the Australian trees grow most on the side oxponed to the sun , and by noting this and the condition of the bark , the ex perienced bubhman is able to fix the cardinal points and to steer his way cor rectly whore the ordinary person should be hopelessly "bushed. " Occasionally a man fails to return to his hut or to thu station , and tlioir black trackers are employed. These manifest a wonderful bagacity in tracing the lost shepherd , and often save his life and often save his life. But in many parts melancholy stories are told of the shepherds who were never found until too lato. Practical jokes are very often played on a sheep station , especially on new chums. The most awkward horse is given to the newcomer , and the result eagerly watched for. Perhaps the Aus tralian "buck-jumper" is the most dlill- cult horse in thu world to sit. Ho allows himself to be mounted quietly , and then puts his nose between his knees , arches his back like a cat , and usually unseats his rider. They are sometimes taught to huckjump , nnd strangers uro chal lenged to ride them. Some can oven buck right out of the saddle without bursting the girths , and leave their rider behind on the ground. The black fellows in n station are very exiwrt rid ers , and will keep their beats after the saddle has gono. The great enemy of the bushman is the grog shanty. After shearing time the buslumui receives his > ehcclc and goes with it to thu landlord of a shanty , hands it over to him , with orders to bupply the owner uud all comers with liquor , and hand over the balance. AI tor a week's continuous drunkenness thu landlord tolls thu man his check is gene , and turns him out with a bottle of rum or whisky in his pocket. He. finds his way back to the station and works awny again for twelve months , and then proceeds to "knock down his check" ns before. Thrifty men , however , pave money , and in porno instances become proprietors of the stations on which their former owner works M a "hand. " A curious character , more often found in the early days of Australia than now , is the "sun-downer. " Ho te mi idle nc'r-do-wcol , who sloops during the day and turns up at a station toward even ing , when the work of the day is over. Had ho come earlier ho might have been asked to do K > mo work. It IM eti quette to offer every arrival some flour and tea. With the flour ho makes a damper and tome tea In his pannikin , nnd when his meal is finished ho is al lowed to unroll his blanket and go to sleep. Men who nro wandering from station to station in search of work carry a "swag' ' that is , a rolled blanket , over the shoulder , nnd a "billy" or tin for boiling tea and arc hence called " wngmon. " Traveling in the more settled parts of Australia , but beyond the reach of rail roads , is usually done in a buggy with a pair of horses , but in the bush a bul lock dray is used. The bullock driver exhorts his cattle in language more forcible than choicn. and says that with out such admonitions his team would refuse to drag the dray. In accomplish ing long journeys it is necessary to sleep in the open air , but in so warm a country ns Australia this is no hard " ship. "The traveler has an opossum rug which is made .up into a bag. He scoops out a hollow in the ground , like the "form" in which a jack rabit re clines , gets into his rug , under which ho places a waterproof sheet and sleeps fioundly. During the night horses are hobbled and are easily caught in the morning , when the journey is resumed. Old pill boxes are spread over the land by the thousands after having been emptied by suffering humanitv. What a mass of sickening , disgusting medicine - cine the poor stomach has to contend with. Too much strong medicine. Prickly Ash Bitters is rapidly and surely taking the place of all this class of drugs , and in curing all the ills aris ing from a disordered condition of the liver , kidneys' stomach and bowels. Salt Lakes. Whether a lake is salt or fresh de pends entirely on circumstances. If the amount of water flowing in is equaled by the evaporation from the surface , a luke may receive continual supplies of fresh water and yet maintain itsavcrago level without finding any outlet. But in this case it will be salt , or , at least , not fresh , since the river which feeds it carries into its basin the saline materials which they have dissolved out of the soil ; and as these solid materials do not disappear in evaporation they must ac cumulate in a lake without an alHuont. This wo see very aptly in the two great lakes fed by the Jordan , in Palestine , The Lake of Tiberias ( the Sea of Galileo ) is fresh , because the water which the Jordan pours in ut ono end is pou.ied out by the same river at the other extrem ity. On the other hand , the Dead Sea at the further extremity of the same valley is naturally salt , because it has no outlet , requiring none , since it has no surplus water , the amount which the Jordan pours in being more than drawn off by evaporation. Indeed , the lake is gradually getting smaller , owing to the fact thai the sup ply from the earth is not quite equal to the demands of the sun upon iUjsurfaco. Hence , also , it must bo gutting salter , though already the water is intensely bitter nnd salt , the chlorides of sodium , magnesium , and calcium being the chief ingredients in itand its density so great that the human body will not sink in it. This , also , is the cause of the intense sa linity of the great Salt lake of Utah in North America. Like so many other salt lakes , this sheet was , no doubt , atone ono time fresh , but by subterranean movements the drainage of a largo area the supplies of fresh water which reach it and the evaporation from its surface being about equal , the water has been gradually getting suitor. Persons who lead a life of exposure are subjected to rheumatism , neuralgia and lumbago and will find a valuable rem edy in Dr. J. H. McLean's Volanio Oil Liniment ; it will banish pain and subdue - duo inflammation. They Will All Go to Work. Washington Correspondence New York Commercial Advertiser : When the news came to Senator Ingalls that his beautiful homo on tlio Missouri was burned to the ground ho was in the committee room ( on District of Colum bia affairs ) , and when ho read it aloud one member burst into tears. Mr. In galls folded the paper up calmly , put it into his pocket , went into the senate chamber and , with his gavel , called the senate to order as usual and conducted it till the time when it is ordinarily tran ferred to other hands. When he went home another despatch was there announcing the loss of every thing "but the piano , and wo may save the barn. " "I had been thinking of tearing that old barn down , " said the senator. They take their loss bravely and when I called the next afternoon Mrs : Ingalls came down stairs smiling , nnd in answer to my words said : "I do notsay , like the defeated general , 'All is lost save honor ; ' but when I look ground on my seven children nnd my husband , all alive and well , I do feel lik saying , with something of sense nnd triumph , 'All is not lost but a good deal. ' " Senator Ingnlls' library contained something like 15,000 volumes and could not have been worth much less than $15,000 intrinsically , besides the valu able papers and volumes of autograph letters from distinguished men. "And now , " said Miss Ingalls a beauty of 18 , with a bright intellect and dangerous eyes , "wo are all going to work for the now house. I am going to write letters for the press see if > I don't.
