HER , UNHAPPY MARRIAGE.
Xelllo Orniit'n Sorrows Krnillcd by the
Death of HIT lliiftb.iiid.
The death of Algernon iS'artoris. husband
df Nulllo Cirant , recalls a story of domestic
sorrow that shadowed the later life of Gen
eral Grant. Of the many melancholy nl-
llam'us of American girls with foreigners ,
none caused so much regret. General Grant
was enshrined in the hearts of the people ,
and when his favorite daughter gave her
hand to an alien and left her ir.itlvo land
there wore more tears than rejoicings.
At the time of her marriage in the whlto
house. .May 21 , 1S74. Miss Grant was. 11) ) . She
had enjoyed a life of exceptional social op
portunities , and had everything to make a
maiden in her teens happy. As n child of 0
or 10 years , with her mother , Nellie often
visited her father's headquarters In the
Held. At the capital she was the pet of the
social world. She had received distin
guished attentions from old and youmr.
Her debut wasono of the events of the social
history of the executive mansion. The sons
and daugnters of the most eminent states
men and ofliclals were her companions. .In
tier homo she was the idol of her father.
When it became known to Mrs. Grant and
the president that the attentions of Mr. Sar
toris meant marriage there was n deep scnso
of disappointment. The president , in speak
ing on the subject to a friend , in a most fool
ing manner expressed regret that the object
of his daughter's affections was not nn
American citizen , "tho humblest In the
land , " he said , "rather than the subject of a
foreign stato. " Ho tried to dissuade his
daughter from what he regarded as so mis
taken a stop. Her determination was fixed.
The president said at the time : , "Uathcr
than have any public comments 1 yielded
consent , though with a wounded heart. "
The marriage was the talk of society for
weeks and the event itself was the most
brilliant that had ever been witnessed
within the stately walls of the executive
mansion. The president gave his daughter
away at tboaltar and.h . ? bade her God spued
on her departure the next day for her resi
dence on foreign shores. The life of Mrs.
Sartoris In Kngland has been the source of
much conflicting gossip , but it is known that
her marriage sooi'i proved unhappy and
llnally ended In u separation. However , this
was not known at onco.
Sartoris , who was described as a rough ,
cross-grained Englishman , was said to bo
more than wanting In respect to his adlanced
bride before marriago. After the marriage ,
when Governor Jewell upon his return from
St. Petersburg once called upon the mar
ried couple , the husband said ho could not
see what there was about him to cause the
daughter of the president of the United
States to fall in love with and marry
him. Governor Jewell agreed with him.
Sartoris. when ho married , was about lit !
years old , but seemed to bo totally de
void of any idea of how to take caroof anyone
ono but himself , nnd his poor little bride ,
who was seasick all the time on the voyage
to Kngland , must have had a most unhappy
honeymoon. Mr. Sartoris' father , Kdward
Sartoris , has been from the llrst devoted to
her nnd has kept her with him as much as
possible. IIo lived on his own property In
the country near Southampton. Kugland.
IIo was a very talented man , when in his
prime having a good voice and being a good
amateur artist. IIo was very well off at the
time of his son's marriage and had previ
ously heen a member of parliament.
During the last illness of General Grant
he longed to see his Nellie. The misfortune
of her lot had embittered his life even more
than his business troubles. It was only with
much persuasion that she was permitted to
return , ovcii on such a sad errand of duty to
n parent. < J5ut her children Algernon I2d-
ward , Vivian May and Hose Mary to whom
she had been so devoted as to endure every
thing , were not allowed to cotno with her ;
in fact , were held , it might he said , as host
ages for her return. It is doubtful , had they
been with her. If she would ever again have
loft her native land and the shelter of her
mother's roof.

All rumors of Indian trouble of any consequence
quence In the vicinity of the Pine Uidgo
agency is ridiculed by the ofllcors at the
headquarters of the Department of the
Plato as feverish imaginings of newspaper
correspondents.
" 1 have no doubt that there are n lot of
people up in that country who would like to
see an Indian uprising , " said one of the ofll-
cers to a HUE reporter , "but they are people
who have four-horto teams that are not em
ployed , and they have corn or hay that they
want to sell to the United States. The sot- :
tiers don't want an Indian war , and they
don't look for such a thing. It made mo
binilo to read the account stating that the
troops at Fort lioblnt > on wernogcttlng their
horses shod in anticipation of an Indian out
break. Did that concspondent imagine that
\\a let the cavalry horses , go barefooted until
wo had some indication of an Indian unris-
Ingl Why , the cavalry horses are regularly
taken to the blacksmith' ! , shop once a month
to keep them always in readiness. Theio
are WO well mounted troopers at Fort Hobin-
son , ami a man can go there any day in the :
j ear and , | ] nd the blacksmith busy. "
Captain Drown , agent at Pine Hldge , has (
not Indicated to General Drooko that he will
need any assistance in Inking care of the
disturbing red men on his reservation. IIo
seems to feel conlldent that ho can preserve

The llrst meeting of the Nebraska sub-
rate committee of The West of the Mis
souri Itlvcr Freight Hito committee wa s
held yesterday In the eafo of the Paxton ,
the following lines being represented : The
Santa Fe by A. P. Tanner , assistant geucral
freight agent , Topeka ; the 11. .t M. by
George Crosby and A. n. Smith ; Kock Island
by G. A. Klmball , assistant general freight
agent , Topokaj the KlKhorn , 1C. C. More-

and Sioux Citv & Northern , T. A. Price ,

Grand Island , J. K. Stein , assistant general
freight agent , St. Joseph ; Union Pacille , K.
II. Wood.
Secretary McFadden called the meeting to
order and the members present proceeded to
elect Mr. Wood chairman.
Kight propositions wcro on the call for
action. Ono proposition was authorized-
thai of the Klkhorn , to establish a classifica
tion on chicory from O'Neill , Neb , , to points
cast to and including Chicago and nortn as
far as Duluth as follows : On less than car
load shipments , fourth class ; carload ship
ments , fifth class.
Hut the most Important question , vital to
South Omaha Interests , was upon the ques
tion of rates on live stock In carloads from
Hastings , Sux | > rior , Davenport ana other
stations on the line of the Klkhorn to Kan
sas City and Omaha. This matter had been
before the general committee , but as it con
cerned only the Nebraska lines it was de
cided to leave the matter to the railroads
directly interested.
It has long been a desire ot Mr. W. K.
Skinner of the South Omaha Stockyards to
divide the territory tributary to Omaha and
Kansas City so that both packing centers
would get their just proportion of the stock
from the territory adjacent to those packing
centers by drawing an imaginary 1 line , say
starting at Maryvlllo in Kansas or follow
ing the I ) . & M. line on thc.southcrn bound
ary of Nebraska. All shippers south of the
line , where the mileage Is in favor of Kan
sas City , recognize that as Kansas City ter
ritory , all north , as belonging to Omaha.
From the moment the proposition was intro
duced it met with antagonism from the Kan
sas City roads , the papers at the mouth of
the Kaw intimating that It was a blow at
Kansas City interests nn 1 in favorof Omaha.
Yesterday morning Mr Skinner appeared
before the committee with maps and
schedules to Justify the fairness of the idea.
After a protracted discussion it went over
till the afternoon and then was referred to
the next regular committee meeting , upon
the plea that the Wyandotte & Northern
was without a representative , although Mr.
Phillippi , who Is presumably authorized to
speak for the Wyandotte. was present.
Mr. J. S. Knox , traflio manager for the
Cudahy Packing company , was before the
committee with a proposition through the
Klkhorn to establish a rate of 18 cents on
packing house products from Sioux City to
Kansas City , which was urged on the ground
that It would give to Sioux City packers a
market at Kansas City which at present Is
practically closed to them.
At llrst blush it looked as if this was a
blow ut Omaha , hut Mr. Knox was emphatic
in his statement to THE BEE representative
that it would not change the position of
} Omaha and Sioux City in the sllg'litcst
greo and would not add a single hog to the
product of either city. .
"This proposition is not aimed at South
Omaha by any means , " said Mr. Knox (
"but it gives the packers in Sioux City
another market for what is called 'green
moats , ' uncurcd hams and shoulders. Sioux
City Is only a .slaughtering center , not hav
ing the varied interests carried on in
South Omaha. There are times when a
packing house cannot use all of its green
meats and these are sent to old established
packers In Kansas City , St. Louis , Chicago ,
Cincinnati , Indianapolis , Pittsburg and New
York , who cure the meats and put their own
brands on them , the public not know
ing but that these packers also
killed them.
"The present tariff to Kansas City from
Sioux City is 18 cents , the same as St. Louis ;
the rate from Omaha to Kansas City being
10 cents , nnd to St. Louis 15 cents. Wo nsk
that the rate bo reduced , from Sioux City
to Kansas City , making the Sioux
City rates to Kansas City and St. Louis
! ) cents above the tariff from Omaha to
those points. "
There was considerable opposition to the
proposition during the morning hours , hut at
the afternoon meeting , rather than get
knocked out entirely. Mr. Knox accepted a
compromise rate of 15 cents , which is a
duction of 3 cents per hundred.
The proposition to pass men both ways on
account of llvo stock shipments , the consid
eration of rates on soft coal in carloads from
points east of the Indiana-Illinois state line
to stations in Nebraska nnd Kansas and the
question of rates on lve [ stock all went over
to the next regular mt'oting.
The proposition to establish a basis for
making rates betweent Lake Superior points
and points on the Klkhorn west of Norfolk ,
by using Chicago rates as maximum , with
the sums of the locals as minimum , was re
ferred to n committee , whoso report shall bo
linal.
The meeting adjourned at 5 o'clock to meet
in regular session at Kansas City In April.

of Widow O'Brien In that famous of all
comedies , "Fun on the Urlstol , " at the
Farnam Street theater. Mr. Sheridan loft
this country several years ago , when nt the
7cnlth of his popularity , for Kngland. Mr.
Sheridan's return to this country a few
months ago was heralded by his engagement
at the Bijou theater , New York City , whom
ho produced a new farcical comedy , entitled
"Mrs. Bridget O'Brien , Ksq. " This play
was a continuation of the plot and story con
tained In the original "Fun on the Bristol. 'J
The clamor , however , was very great from
numerous parties to see Mr. Sheridan In his
original part In "Fun on the Bristol. " That
play was therefore revisgd for the four

Demands of Various County oniclulM lor
Morn AfisUtuiitH.
The county commissioners continue to
hold executive sossiomvsitting ns a commit
tee of the whole , trying to figure- out Just
how many- clerks they should allow the
heads of the several departments , and what
salaries should be paid.
There is a wail from all of the oftlrcs ex
cept that of the county clerk , the general
tenor of the cry being that all of the clerks
are worked to death and that there must bo
more help or else the interests of the county
will sulTer. The commissioners luivo heeded
the cry and have got along to a point where
the have disposed of the olllco of the
county Judge. That gentleman wanted
two additional clerks , and then ho
wanted the salaries of the six
now employed Increased. The Judge was
not modest enough in his demands , and as a
result ho gets almost nothing for which ho
asked. The salary of ono of the lady clerks
is Increased from $ J)0 ) to S-IO per mouth , and
this is the extent of the changes.
The county treasurer wants an Increase In
the salaries of all his clerks. The sheriff has
asked for an additional deputy , and In sup
port of thn demand ho has convinced the
committee that the business of his ollice has
increased 72 per cent during the past year
and that the olllco force Is no greater than it
was two years ago. a

Shameful
Confession
It n a shameful confession to
make that ir.any people are
willing to use adulterated arti
cles because they are cheaper ,
and in doing so often subject
ing themselves to injurious
effects , for it must notbe
supposed that those who are
willing , at the cost of repu
tation and for the purpose of
gain , to impose adulterated
goods upon the public , would
hesitate 'to use injurious
adulterants.
