LINCOLN. Sept. 17. )
J. K. Gundy , the city iittornoy of Paw
nee , writes Clerk II. M. Waring that
the Chicago , Kansas ft Nebraska rail
road company has only partially com
plied \vith the order of the state board
of transportation to put certain tttroot
erodings over its right of way in * a
jmssablo condition.
On Sliormnti street no sidewalks have
boon provided on either uido of the
htroot as ordered.
On the bccoud section of said order
the grade has not boun constructed to
conform to it.
The fourth and fifth sections of the
order lutvo also been wholly disobeyed.
The seventh section has not only boon
diaoboved but the railroad company ab-
holutely refuses to comply with the or
der , and are at direct variance witli the
expressed order of tlio board.
This report of the citv attorney is
made at the request of the board and
51 will be taken up for consideration at
Thursday's meeting. This wilt give an
opportunity for the court to pass upon
tlio authority of the board to regulate
private crossings.
After twenty-live years of married
life Henry Kroekmeyor has come to the
conclusion that ho cannot live happily
with liia wife , Rebecca any longer , and
Books to bo divorced. His petition iiled
this morning alleges extreme cruelty.
At one time ho recites that his spouse
hired her sons , the issue of a former
inariago , to give him u threshing , which
they did because o'f greater strength.
This , ho alleges , was uono in the early
part ot the year 1887 , and just nftor ho
had magnanimously deeded her seventy
nercs of good land in this .county , a
good share of his earthly possessions ,
and since then he has been cruelly
abused and , ho says , can no longer
stand the torture. The petition recites
n. cruel state of alTuirs , and without ref
utation the district court will doubtless
grant Ilonry the boon of his pravcrs.

CHINESE MANNERS.
You Arc Afkcd to Dinner anil Thou
Told How You Should Hch.ivc.
' Youth's Companion : In China all
the actions of lifo are supposed to bo
regulated by a book called the "Li Ki
or the Book of Rites , " This book ,
which la said to make it easier to be po >
lito-hi China than anywhere else , be-
causo'pollteness is subject to moro fixed
regulations , has bei > n In largo part
translated into English by Sir James
Lcgge , professor of Chinese in Die un
iversity nt Oxford. The Chinese is sur
rounded with rites unil regulations
from his birth to his grave , very many
of which nro exceedingly grotesque
nnd trivial to us.
When n Chinese makes u visit to an
tiequtilntanco ho sends in his ordinarj
vlhUing card or billet , on which is
written : ' The tender and sincere
friuntl of your lordship , and tlio perpe
tual disciple of your doctrine presents
himself to pay his duty and make his
revorauco oven to the earth. "
The bluster of the houe'a meat ? at the
door his visitor , who firmly refuses to
enter first ; the host then makes him u
profound bow , and they go In together.
There is n similar seono at the stair
way. After n long exchange of formal
ities , they go up side by side , but the
visitor is obliged to stop on the first
stair with his right foot , while the man
of the hou.se puts his loft foot first. Any
Chinaman who omits these formalities
is considered as very ill-bred.
In convort-ation the host and guest
never think of using the pronouns 1 and
you. Instead of saying : "I am very
sensible of the service you have done
mr , " they will say : "Tho service that
the lord or the doctor has done for his
incnnodt servant or his scholar has
greatly alTocted mo. " Tlio guest's in
vitation card bears this sentence : "To
what an elevation of splendor will your
presence assist us to risol"
If the visitor is nskoil to dinner , cus
tom requires that ho shall receive the
following bit of ndvico :
"Do not make a noise in eating ; do
tot crack the bones with your teeth ;
In not- drink the sauces in long
draughts. "
All this is said and received with the
utmost gravity. If the host is a person
) f consequence and serves fruit contain-
ng stones at dinner the guest is ox
iceled to put the fruit stones in his
) ockot , us it would bo impolite to refuse
my of his entertainer's gifts.
The method of cutting a melon varies
iccording to the rank of the eater ;
ind of the ollico holders there are be
tween the highest mandarin and the
lowest constable nine classes , each dis
tinguished by a dress peculiar to itself.
The military ceremonials are almost
jndlcss ; oven the killing of an enemy
las to bo done according to a certain
ceremony , and there is a special car
riage provided in which a messenger
who brings news of a defeat has to ride.
Mourning is rigidly regulated. Hero
is an extract trom the "LI K I" :
"When a father dies the son must ap
pear dumbfounded , as if ho know not
vhcro ho was. When the body has
jcon placed in the collln the son must
cast about him rapid and alllicted
glances , . as if ho sought something
which he could not find.
"When the burial has taken place ho
nust wear an ngitutcd and alarmed ox-
iression , as if he awniU'd some one who
Iocs not come. At the end of the first
year of mourning ho must wear a sad
: md dejected air , and at the end of the
second year a vague and restless ex
pression. "
At certain intervals the mourner must
jaro his throat and execute a scries of
juinp.s. For a dibtant relative the jumps
iilono siilllco.
The "Li Ki" cites , as a perfect ex
ample of discretion in mourning , the
case of a woman named King Kiiing ,
who , having lost her husband and hoi-
son , mourned her son dav and night ,
and her husband through the day only.

Schools on the Continent.
Contemporary Revio.\v : Germany
stands ahead of all other nations in the
excellence of its primary and secondary
schools. The well known Roalschulen ,
many of which now comprise ton classes
and nro co-ordinate with the gymnasia ,
afford an education which is perhaps
the best possible general preparation
for commercial or trade pursuits. In
these schools the classical languages are
not taught and the time thus saved is
devoted to modern languages ami
science. In addition schools of com
merce are found in nearly all the large
towns of Germany. There are certain
differences between the systems of com
mercial education and indeed of educa
tion generally as adopted in Bavaria ,
Saxony and Prussia. The mercantile
schools are well attended and they are
practically independent of government
aid. Several of the real schools have a
commercial department , but besides
these there are in Germany seventy
special schools of commerce , the leav
ing certificate of.which is recognized
as conferring the right of one year's
military service ; nijio middle schools
with a less extended curriculum and n
largo number of evening schools , which
are attended by clerks , merchants'
apprentices , and other persons
engaged in mercantile houses. Witli
the view of meeting the requirements of
young meii who desire to attend special
courses of instruction on commercial
subjects some of the polytechnic schools
of Germany have arranged courses of
lectures , which are intended for those
who are socking places under the gov
ernment in the custom and excise of
fices , but are followed by other students
who have received their early educa
tion at a gymnasium or rcalschulo and
whoso circumstance ! ] enable them to
spend a year or two at college before
commencing business.
In Austria-Hung/iry / there are nine
high schools of commerce , eleven in
termediate schools , nad forty-two
schools intended principally for clerks.
There is nothing that calls for special
notice in the subjects of instruction in
these schools. The course of study Is
very similar to that in the correspond
ing suhools of Germany. The most im
portant of the high schools is in Vienna
and is known as the Iluudcb ukiidcmlo.
It gives two courses of instructions , the
occupying three years and the other
two yeard. The subjects Of instruction
are 'nearly the tame as these of the
high schools.
In Italy the subject of cotmnorclal
education ib receiving careful attention.
The system of bifurcation commences
immediately after a child leaves the elementary -
montary school. These intended for in
dustrial pursuits pass on to the techni
cal hchool ( schuola tocnica ) and thence
to the technical institute. Others puss
tltrough the corresponding classical
schools to the university. The techni
cal institute corresponds to some extent
with the higher real schools of Ger-
mnny , but each institute eon tains three
or more separate departments , in which
the institution is specialized with a
view to different branches ot industry.
There ore sixty-live technical institutes
in Italyin many of which there is a de
partment entirely devoted to commer
cial education.
Jy Belgium there are numorouu mid
dle schools , the object of which is to
prepare you't-hs for commercial pur
suits. The fact tlyit the children of the
middle classes are Josiiuod.for the most
wart , to earn their HvollnOod in trade
is recognized , in the general suJiomo ol
intormculiata education adopted In
Belgium , and the course of school
studies is arranged accordingly.

HOT WINDS IN KANSAS ,
Mr. Clinrlci Frnncln Adams OITers n
Theory About Them.
Kansas City Times : In traversing
during the last week the whole of tlio
state" of Kansas from its western to its
eastern border , I regretted again to ob
serve the destructive effects of the hot
southern wind on the corn crop. I had
scon the same thing a vear ago in Ne
braska , but then it was Intensified by a
t-overo drouth , the effects of which
were felt us fur east as Illinois and Indi
um. The destruction wrought by the
iiol southern wind has this year been
confined apparently to western Kansas
ind to the southern half of the eastern
portion of the state , and that , too , dur
ing a season of at least average rain
fall.
During th" journey I was in company
with several men who had given moro
or loss careful attention to the causes
as well as the effects of these period
ical burning winds. They one and nil
expressed a conlldent belief , which
seems to bo founded in reason , that
: hose ' "dobtruetivu siroccos , which ap-
imrontly destroy a regular fixed por-
ewitimg of. the Kansas corn crop , are
duo to the un'feottiodcondition of the
Lcrrllory lying south and west of tho-
stato. If so , it is an ' additional and po
tent argument in'favor of tlio early
opening of the Indian territory.
The theory they advance is us follows :
Originally the whole country west of
Lho Missouri river was one vast rolling
llain , which had for centuries boon
Lmriit over by lire and trodden by buffalo
until the surface of the soil was some
what of the nature of a tile. From this
the water flowed rapidly off into the ra
vines and then to the Mibsouri river.
There was no moro capacity for absorp
tion in the soil than there is in the roof
of a church. The radiation of boat
from this tile-like surface was also
about the same as it is from the root of
a church. Accordingly , iw the prevail
ing winds passed over this vast baking
and radiating surface , they became
heated to a higher and higher degree
until they withered Up every green
thing with which they came in contact.
It was like a draft of air across iron ra
diators.
As agriculture crept west from the
Missouri river , this tilo-liko plain has
been brokcirup , and fields of growing
crops have taken the place of the buf
falo grass. The soil now not only holds
the rainfall , but the fields of growing
crops , especially of corn , protect the
earth from the constant burning rays of
the sun , and generate coolness as well
as moisture.
As yet the area of agriculture has
stretched only a limited diatnnco west ,
and toward the south it is put a stop to
by the Indian territory. That territory
remains in its primal condition , ami ,
together with the Panhandle of Texas ,
constitutes a v.iat radiating surface over
which , iu its heated condition , the
prevailing winds of summer pass
and then strike the south
ern border of Kainas. Hero
they come in contact with tlio growing
crops , especially of corn , and they burn
and wither these up until the sirocco
becomes cooled by passing over the
artificially tompqrod area. Accordingly
this summer , the hot winds s > oem to
have traversed only the western and
southern portions of Kansas , there de
stroying tlio crops , but losing thir de
structive force before reaching the
northern and eastern tiers of counties.
If this theory is correct , and , as I
have said , it seems founded on both ex
perience and reason , the conclusion is
evident that there will be no perman
ent stop put to these burning siroccos ,
and the consequent destruction of a
regular though somowhut decreasing
percentage of Kansas crops , until the
Indian Territory is opened to cultiva
tion and the baking and radiating rur-
face to the south and wo-t broken up"
As it is , Kansas is still the pioneer
state , with the old tile-covered plain
stretching out bcjoud it. Farmers of
western and southern Kansas occupy ,
therefore , much the position of a per
manent front rank in the line of battle ,
sure always to take the lire. Behind
them rest in security the northern
tier of counties of the state/ / and the ad
joining state of Nebraska.
I do not for a moment profess to bo an
export in meteorology. Nevertheless ,
being much struck witli this theory ad
vanced by others , I bog leave to sug
gest it to you. I would lie , at least , to
see a question of such importance pub
licly discussed , in order that the truth
may bo elicited. I remain , etc. ,
CIIAULUS FUANCIS AUAMS.
A liiiRtncss-Llkc Oiror.
For many years the manufacturers of
Dr. Sago's Catarrh Remedy have of
fered , in good faith , $300 reward for a
case of Nasal Catarrh which they cannot
euro. The remedy is sold by druggists
at only CO cents. This wonderful rem
edy lias fairly attained n world-wide
reputation. If you have dull , heavy
headache , obstruction of the nasal pas
sages , discharges falling from the head
into the throat , sometimes profuse ,
watery and acrid , at others , thick , te
nacious mucous , purulent , bloody and
putrid ; if the eyes are weak , wutorv
and-inflamed ; if there is ringing in the
ears , deafness , hacking or coughing to
clear the throat , expectoration of offens
ive matter , together with scabs from
ulcers ; the voice being changed and has
a nasal twang ; the breath offensive ;
smell and taste impaired ; sensation of
di//.mess , with mental depression , a
hacking cough and general debility ,
you are suffering from nasal catarrh.
The moro complicated your disease , the
greater the number and diversity of
symptoms. Thousands of cases annually ,
without manifesting half of the above
symptoms , result in consumption , and
end in the grave. No disease is so com
mon , more deceptive and dangerous , or
loss understood , or more unsucce slully
treated by physicians.

Rocky Mountain News : Robert Wil

of mountains , whoso peaks lower to the

self , wife and family are secluded from
the haunts of civilization and seldom
does any ono of them venture down into
the settlements until spring is far gone
and the summer's sun has melted the
do'ip snows out of the valleys and loft
the mountain pathways clear and unim
peded for travel.
.So the other day when Wilson's
friends caught a sight ot his brawny fig
ure swaggering into Sheridan on a
mountain broncho heavily laden , they
were just about as much astonished as
they would have boon if some of their
dead relatives had risen up out of their
graves and appeared on the streets of
the village.
As "Bob" nenred the principal gro
cery in the village the crowd grow
thicker around the doorway , and when
ho halted and "climbed down" from the
I'liyuso ho was awarded a friendly greet
ing and hearty hand-shako , for it is
universally conceded that Bob's heart
is one of the largest in the whole terri

After hitchint ? his pony he nnstrapiwd
a huge animal's hide from its back , and
as it fell ho exclaimed : "Look thnr , ye

of triumph. "It knocks everything in
the grizily b'ar creation all to pieces.
I've never b'lioved there was sich big
critters around hero afore. "
"It's u whopper. Whar d'ye git it ? "
shouted a half a dozed bystanders all at
the same moment.
And the old hunter , in the most plain
and simple language , related to his
hearers the severe and ugly hand-to-
hand encounter with the beastin which
his escape was. almost miraculous. Find
ing the bear's don under a huge shelv
ing rock in the side of a mountain , and
failing to dislodge the grizzly , ho went
homo 'and sccurail the assistance of his
daughter , who is an excellent shot with
a Winchester rifle. Together they re
turned to the demand tried to persuade
the bear-to eomo out. But the grizzly
fatill refused. This made "Bob" more
adventurous than over. Ho cut a long
tolo , tied u rope to his foot , and , taking
his revolver and hunting knifecrawled
into the rude passageway , determined
to find the bear at all events. The sight
of the man enraged the animal , and it
rushed toward mm , Fortunately for
Bob ho watched his opportunity , and
and skilfully avoided meeting
the bear 'face to face , but
both man nid | beast became wedged to
gether , so that neither could do the
other any bodily harm , though Bob
was squeezed so tightly as to be almost
squeezed in pieces. The boar was en-
dcnvbrlng to seize Bob with its mon
strous jaws , and Bob was trying to got
his knife ready for action. Jane was
equal to the emergency. She fired into
the bear's throat , and a minute later ho
dnshed out of the opening to catch her ,
but being licet , and the boar blinded by
the shot , she succeeded in escaping to a
phico of safety. In her flight she was
compelled to drop her rillo , and had
nothing to defend horsnlf with. Tlio

volvor early in the struggle , while the
young woman would go near and shoot
at. the bear and then retreat and be out
of the reach of his fury when he charged
after her.
In this way the grizzly was finally
killed , after being shot no less than ten
times by the young woman , and Wilson
came out of the den all right , with the
exception of wearing deep scars in sev
eral places. IIo is so elated over his
daughter's bravery that ho regards his
own injuries as hardly worthy of notice.
A Lee CAiirx was the
birth place of a number of
the best presidents we have
had. While without the
modern conveniences they
cre not uncomfortable
habitations. They were
certainly healthy , for our
ancestors were rugged and long-lived ,
and the remedies they used were sim

Kf l lie Old Days.
Besant's "Fifty Years Ago : " There
is still swiigger , oven in these days ;
cavalry officers in garrison towns are
still supposed to swagger. Eton boys
swagger in their own little village ;
undergraduates swagger. The putting
on of "sido , " by the way , is a peculiarly
modern form of swagger ; it is the as
sumption of certain ' qualities nnd
powers which are considered as deserving -
serving of respect. Swagger , fifty
years ago , was n coar&cr kind of thing.
Officers swaggered , men of rank swag
gered , men ofyealth swaggered , gen
tlemen of military frogs swaggered ,
in taverns , clubs and in the streets.
The adoption of quiet manners ; the
wearing of rank with unobtrusive dig
nity ; the possession of wealth without
ostentation ; of wit without the desire
to be always showing it these nro
points in which wo are decidedly in ad
vance ot our fathers. There was n great
deal of cuff and collar , stock and breast
pin about the yoUng .follows of the day.
They wore oppressive in their gallantry ;
in public places they assorted thorn-
selves ; they were loud In their talk.
