GRAND ISLAND , Nob. . Oct. 28. ( Spe
cial. ) Notwithstanding the fact that Mart
Howe , the t-ecretary of the populist state
central committee lived In this county forever
over a year , havl ig been adjutant at the
soldier's home , ho nevertheless has recently
made an error regarding the political affil
iations of a certain man In Grand Island ,
which loads the latter to transmit to Mr.
Howe a rather caustic reply.
Mr. Howe , as secretary of the committee ,
recently wrote a letter to Mr. Partridge ,
county" clerk of Hall county , which letter
roads TR follows :
LINCOLN , Oet. S.i. Dcar Sir : As the
committee finds that the funds on hand
will not 1)o milllclcnt to cnrry on the last
week of thin campaign , wewould nsk Hint

M. HOWE , Secretary.
Mr. Partridge , being a republican and not
Interested In the succors of Mr. Howe's com
mittee , demurred , end Mr. Howe has been
favored with the following reply :
GRAND ISLAND , Neb. , O-l. 27. Hon.

friends to waver In their allegiance to the
cause. The weather conditions have not
been fnvornblo to n failure of the crops ;
wo have not yet 1m d a good killing frost
and nearly the entire crop of ' 07 Is aft ! .
This la bail. Hut worse than this are the
mistakes of Sigh. Why Old you allow him
to appear us a witness In the Hartley bond
suit and expose his Ignorance of checking
up the treasury ? Why , nearly any old pop
ulist would know better than to accept
checks on little country banks n cash ! It
has spoiled the tout ensemble , an It wore ,
of the original design of the party a big
wntoluloc of the treasury.
Then bow about silver ? What are you

us farmers here wcro laying up our surplus
bur silver , and Instead of putting up the
price lo fl.29 an ounce you have allowed
it lo go down until It Is worth about JI.-9
a pound , and wo will have to lese on It.
If It wasn't for the good prices we are

FREMONT , Neb. , Oct. 28. ( Special. ) The
American Chicory company started Its plant
hero at midnight last night. During the
summer some Improvements have been made
In the machinery and everything placed In
good shape. The total amount of chicory
beets dried hero this year will bo considera
bly less than lest season , the management
estimating It at only 5,000 tons. The yield
per aero Is smaller than last year , which was
an exceptionally favorable season for raising
chicory , but will bo large enough to make
the crop a profitable one to the farmer. The
company has recently shipped a largo quan
tity of the dry root to Omaha to bo prepared
for the market. The demand for chicory Is
Improving and many new customers arc
being added to the company's list. As It Is
not practicable for the factory to shut down
during the season , two full crows are em
ployed of about fifteen men each. The factory
will probably be In operation about eighty
days this season.
The small yield of chicory per aero Is laid
* i various causes. Some farmers say that
much of thclr's wcs destroyed by a fly that
took it about the time of the first culti
vating , that the plants came up In good
shape , but soon afterward disappeared. Mr.
Mead of the company does not take much
stock In thcso reports. He thinks the failure
of some fields was owing to poor or improper
cultivation , the ground not being thoroughly
mellowed or the seed not being put In soon
enough afler tho-'ground was got In condi
tion.

OSCEOLA , Neb. , Oct. 28. ( Special. ) The
widow of Owen Wilson , who disappeared
from Omaha about seven years ago , lias just
received from Washington over $500 pension
money.
Wilson was an old soldier. Ho disap
peared July 8 , 1S90 , and It was bslUvcd at
the time that ho had been robbed and thrown
Into the Missouri river. Ho had Just drawn
his pension money for June , amounting to
| 72 , and was supposed to have the bulk of
this In his pocket at the time. A claim was
Immediately filed for a widow's pension , but
after dragging along for six years It was
finally rejected by the Cleveland adminis
tration on the ground that the widow had
not been nblo to prove her husband's death
and that the money , therefore , could not be
paid until seven years had elapsed. The
seven ytars expired on July 8 last and Sen
ator Thurston , at the request of Mrs. Wil
son's friends , had the claim made "special , "
with the result that It has been allowed to
date from UMay 25 , 1S92 , at the rate of $ S a.

In the Dorsey case In the federal court
George W. E. Dorsey was on'tho stand all
day , and In his testimony endeavored to show
the court that the obtaining of worthless
signatures on notes and subsequent endorse
ment of them by himself and his brother
was consistent with good banking principles.
The defense claims that the solvency of the
Dorsoys , when they made the endorsements ,
gave the notes full value and that there
was therefore no fraud. Dorsey , In hb
testimony today , made a showing that at the
date of the endorsements his net assets
amounted to $400,000. The government Is
preparing to show that the assets were
padded or that excessive values to property
belonging to tbo defendants. Frank Dorsey

are both playing under old Pennsylvania
men , Woodruff and Wagonhurst , and using
practically the same systems. Missouri has
been keeping pretty mum since. . Its defeat
by the Kansas City Medics , and the State
Normal school and is tcported to be "rawing
wood. " Its victory over the heavy Iowa
Wisleyan team last week would Indicate a
decided Improvement over Its condition at
the first of the season. Charles Young of St.
Louis , a former captain of the team , has been
acting as coach during their preliminary
work. Hal Coulcy , Missouri's famous old
tackle , is now coaching the tackles acil

the star end of the 1S93 team , to take charge
of the ends and The mas for the center men.
Captain Hill , the big guard , Is now playing

man , weighing nearly 200 pounds , has taken
Hill's place as guard. litus IKIB gone In us
fuli'back ' In Kirk's place. .Hass . Is somewhat
heavier than Kirk and is a better line bucker.
He Is one of their 'best ' ground gainers.
Cramer has been moved from end to tackle
and Gentry , a new man , Is playing right
end. Perry , another now maui. Is playing left
end and Is doing good work. Cramer weighs
1GO pounls and plays fast ball. He Is booked
for one of the stars. Phillips , the 200-pound
giant who has been phi ) ing center , has
given way to Cox , a now man 'weighing only
ICO pounds. Cox , although light for the
place , has outplayed all other candidates.
Parker , , boy IS years of age artl weighing
over ISO pounds , will play right guard. Don-
garth , a Colorado man , Is playing quarter.
He is fast and weighs about 153 pounds , but
Is not a sure passer. Shepherd , Jones , Troy
and Liggett arc candidates for halfbacks , all
doing good work. Shepherd anJ Troy will
probably play In Saturday's game. They are
both of fair weight , speedy and hard run
ners and each has several good end runs to
Us credit In last week's game.

In its first two games thip season , defeating
Tarklo 1C to 0 two weeks ago and the Ne
braska Weslcyan learn 11 to 0 Inst week.
The team has made good progress this week
In both offensive and defensive work. The
Interference has Improved materially and
team worlc In general Is better than a week
ago. Running Interference shbws great Im
provement. The men forin quickly and run
In perfect position , forming a lno which Is
exceedingly bard to puncture. The backs
show marked Improvement In' running and
following interference and arc good for gains
at any time. They are 'also of great assist
ance to the tackles when running wish the
ball , and do not hesitate to go into 'the line
when called upon.
A glance at the 'Varsity as It will prob
ably line up Saturday afternoon shows Her
bert , a new man , measuring even six feet
and weighing ISO pounds stripped , at the cen
ter of the line , doing good work. Ho will
be well supported on cither side by Turner
and Hanson , both of whom played on last
year's 'Varsity. Turner measures six feet
five inches in his stocking feet and balances
the scales at 215 pounds when In nature's
garb. He gets around with considerable speed
for a man of his size , Is good at blocking
and never falls at putting the ball some
yards nearer the goal when called upon.
When only a few yards are needed he has
only to lake the ball and stretch out with
It , making the first down.
Hanson is a good mate for Turner. He
commenced playing at the same time , last
year , and Ins played steadily ever since. Ho
is out regularly for pracllce and profils
thereby , Is sure at advancing the ball and
puts up a good game all arotmd. He measures
six feet three Inches and weighs an even
200 pounds.
Pcarso plays a beautiful game at left tackle
and is about evenly matched by Hayward at
right. Both are old men and enter into the
spirit of the game. Pearse played on the
Beatrice High cchool team previous to his
entrance to the university , when he at once
went onto the 'varsity. Ho plays a heady
game and Is always found where most
needed. His long black hair held in place
by a buckskin headgear usually occupies a
position about six feet two inches above
terra flrma , while It takes 175 pounds of
hlgh-grado material to come up to his mark.

braska for three years and Is again holding
down his favorite position. He tips the beam
at 145 pounds , Is five feet eight Inches In

Stringer , who looks very well on the left
wing , has demonstrated his right to bo there
by effective work on every occasion. Ho
conies from the Ilcatrlc" High school this
year , weighs 175 pounds and wears his hair
parted in the middle about six feet from the
ground.
Cowglll at quarter has developed a strong
game , Ho playcj four years on the Omaha
High school team at various positions and
played substitute quarter and fullback on
the 'varsity during his first , year In the unl-
vcislty. He Is good at passing , la a good
punter and drop kicker and in the Weslcyan
game scored five points for his team by drop-
kicking a goal from Wesley n's thirty-five-
yard line. He Is built ftloso , lo the ground ,

Celery Compound.
Charles E. Osgood of Boston , the owner of
the largest and most successful furniture
business In New England , If not In the
country , was ono of the few largo buyers
among furniture dealers during the hard
times of last year who > dld a great business ,
always paying cash , moving en as If times
were good , while rival concerns were going
to pieces right and left all about. His credit
from Michigan to Maine became so conspic
uously "solid" that he was one of the most
talked of young men In commercial circles.
With limited means , but well bred , full
of character , straightforward , and well edu
cated , he started In 'business ' cnly a few
years ago in a very moderate way In a little
Store on Tremont street In Doston. The city
begnn to know him quickly. His business
rapidly assumed large proportions. A news
paper one day Interviewed him in the col
umn of "Men Worth Knowing. "
"To what do you attribute your success ? "
asked the Interviewer.
Mr. Osgood replied very shortly : "When
ID doubt , buy the best goods. "
Ho is known everywhere today by that ex
pression.
Work told on Mr. Osgood's health. With
characteristic judgment he put his reliance
upon nature's best remedy to make him
well again. The best of medical treatment
was at his disposal ; there certainly was no
physician that a man In his position could
not employ. ' Ho get the right advice and
followed It. Today he is perfectly well ,
good-tempered , aggressive and energetic to
the last degree.
In a letter to the proprietors of Paln 's
celery compound , wrltlen Sept. 22 , ISO" , Mr.
Osgood said :
" 1 have derived great benefit from the use
of Palnc's celery compound , and can un

Krcovej ) through the twelve months , year In
nnd year out , the cITcct Is as disastrous us a
lire In a bundle of wood.
When the nervous system Is fagged out
no.-.e of the organs of the body do their
duty ; the purifying , excretory organs do not
thoroughly cleanse the blood and the diges
tive nml assimilative orpans keep the nerves
'badly ' nourished.
The tired system needs help. Hero Is
where Palno's celery compound accomplishes
its wondeiful work. The radical purifying
nf the blood and the rapid feeding of the
nerves by this great remedy prevents the
development of diseases that often lurk un-
iceognlzoi In the system.
Every ono who has taken Paine's celery
compound has noticed and remarked to
others Its wonderful strengthening effect
upon tbo entire nervous organization and Ita
cleansing action on the vitiated blood. It
cures the body of that nervous habit , erad
icates headache , cures Insomnia and wasting
diseases , and quickly drives out the poison
ous huirors that cause the aches and rains
of rheumatism and neuralgia. For building
up the boJy against general debility , poor
appetite and the tired lifeless feelings that
accompany a low nervous tone , Paluo'sr celery
compound Is beyond all question the surest ,
most responsible remedy any ono can use.
An ailing habit , with frequent bodily [ Kilns
over the scat of such vital organs as the
heart , brain or kidneys Is serious and urgent.
The descent to fatal disease Is easy , whenever -
over the body becomes "run down. " Build
ousup the strength and resistance of the
nervous and digestive systems with Paine's
celery compound , get rid of unhealthy con
