DREXEL WILL NOT COMPLY
Count? Clerk, giabnugh flays, Will
Refuse to Extend Assessment
Against Woodmen Reserve,
County Attorney Slabaugh has replied to
the letter of George W. Bennett, secre
tary of the State Board of Equalization and
Assessment demanding that the courity
clerk pluce on the assessment roll tho re
serve funds of the Woodmen of the
World. Mr. Slabaugh's letter to Mr. Ben
nett was very brief, merely stating that In
his opinion the county clerk will refuse to
comply with the demand of the state
board. The county attorney did not commit him
self as to the reasons for his opinion, but
he says If the time comes when he has to
give them he thinks they will be found
sufficient.

A Belgian woman. Mme. Holland of
SenefTe. attained her lmth birthday on
June 12. She Is credited In Belgium with
being the only surviving witness of the
battle of Waterloo, having been seated on
a wall In the neighborhood of the buttle
during a part of the engagement. Last
year, when the French monument to
Waterloo heroes was unveiled on the bat
tlefield, Mme. Holland was allotted a place
of honor as the most noteworthy spectator
present at the ceremony.
An American king, possessing and lord
ing It over a miniature domain, arrived re
cently In New York City on the Teutonic.
He la William I.. D. Cary. His kingdom Is
an Island within the United Kingdom of
Great Brtan; yet, strange to say, tills realm
pays no taxes to the British crown. South
of the lale of Man lies this tiny sovereigul,
called (lie Calf of Man. The Calf has a
coast line of five miles. On the isle are 9iu
acres, of which l.' are under cultivation.
Generations ago the islet came Into the
possession of the ancestors of Cary.
To write, and even to sew, by means of
the Hp" and tongue alone would seem a
sheer Impossibility, and yet Dr. Ruben
stein of Werthelm-on-Msine, a medical ex
pelt of reputation In Germany, according
to the Ixindoii Globe, vouches for having
himself seen an authentic Instance. The.
case was that of a young girl, paralyi-d
In all her limbs from the age of 7 to 14.
when she died, some months ago. The
afflicted little creature, by a triumph of
will and patience, than which. In Its own
way. few liner achievement have been
recorded, trained lips and tongue to do the
work of the hand, and to do It well, for
she could not only sew. but could do It

STRANGE FREAKS OF LIGHTNING
Manv persons have been killed by llght
.!.. ... n,rv more have suffered strange
and Injurious effects from It after ncov-
crlns from the shock.
a .ir..u llirhtnlnir has even amputated
a limb, as In the ruse of a boy at Cruc.w.
Poland, as recorded by the meineBi profu
sion. The boy's riKht knee was stiff from
disease, and when riding In a field during a
loud neal of thnnder made
the horse run away, throwing the child to
. 1. I -
the ground. When tho boy recovenu
senses he found that his right leg was
mlsslnj:, having been rut through at the
knee, leaving a perfectly round end below
the patella or kneecap. There were PlKnS
of burning atH.ut the body, from all of
whlrh he recovered. Pom" few days after
wnrd the missing leg was found near where
he had been thrown by the horse.
Dr. Cnmby of Paris gives the cne of a
woman who had two children killed bv
lightning In her presence. She herself was
rendered unconscious for four days, and
after regaining her senses she found her
self paralyzed and nunih on the left side of
her body She fully recovered In three
weeks. Two years afterward. In a thunder
storm, she had a similar attack, although
there was no visible lightning. Three years
later, under similar circumstances, she
ngaln bad a like nttack.
Dr. MacDonald of England reports a
woman of 7 years of age who some forty
two years previously, while Ironing a cap
with an Italian Iron, was stunned by a
strong flash of lightning and fell back Into
a chair. On recovering consciousness she
found that the cap, which she had left on
the table some distance from the Iron, had
been transformed Into cinders. Her cloth
ing was not burned, nor were there any
murks on tho skin. After the stroke she
felt a creeping sensation und numbness,
especially In the arm that had been next to
tho table.
She declared that as a consequence she
could predict when the atmosphere was
highly charged with electricity, as the
numbness Increased on these occasions. She
also said that shortly before and during a
thunderstorm she always became, nause
ated. It seems that In this case the nerves
of the arm reaching to the base of the
brain had continued abnormally sensitive.
Dr. Adamson of North Borneo relates the
following case: The person struck by light
ning was seated at dinner when tho flash
came, and ho felt what seemed to be a ter
rific blow on the left knee, as if he had
been hit by something round. He fell off
his chair unconscious and remembered
nothing more until awakening to find him
self unable to get tip and In darkness ex
cept for what seemed to be burning specks
on the floor and around him.
The patient was put to bed. when the
body showed tho following condition: Both
legs were swollen and green In appearance,
this latter condition passing off In a short
time; from the knee to the toes of the left
leg the skin In some places was torn away,
and In others It was raised Into blisters;
from the middle of the thigh to the ankle
of the right leff the condition was the same
as In the left leer. The patient stated that
he felt as If he had no legs at all.
Sensation was completely lost, nnd the
feet felt very cold. There was great pnln
In the muscles of the legs. The general
shock was considerable and brought deaf
ness, with ringing In the ears. He made a
rapid recovery after the application of hot
water bottles and massage to the soles of
the feet and soothing- applications to the
burns.
Two cases of lightning stroke with burns
and unconsciousness have been recorded
by Dr. Cook and Dr. Boultlng. both of
which recovered. One of these patients saw
"the clouds opening" and a "sheet of fire
falling," ns he stnted. He heard a deafen
ing thunder clap and felt stunned for some
minutes, but had no sensation of pain.
He discovered that his trousers were on
fire and that his steel buckles had been
torn from his legs. He saw the other man
lying senseless on the ground and appar
ently dead. He had lost all feeling In the
legs and tumbled down when he tried to
walk. His boots were "In fibbona" and
fell off when he moved. Ho felt "as though
he had been blown from a cannon."
The other man remembered nothing of
the accident, and he neither felt nor saw
anything at the time ho was struck. When
he became slightly conscious he complained
of having pain, as from a red-hot Iron,
which was "traveling up his legs." The
whole of one side was burned. He re
covered In' three weeks, while the other
men recovered In three or four dnys.
Captain Berne reports lightning striking
four men in a tent In the Transvual. They
all suffered from severe shock and some
were severely burned. He specially draws
attention to the peculiar odor from such
cases, which, he says, is very marked. It
Is not the smell of burnt clothing or
charred flesh, but a smell like diluted sul
phuric acid.

Movement is l ight.
Continued warm weather In Nebraska th(l
last Week has done wonders for the corn
crop und eevrvbody Is pi edict lug a bumper
yield. A number of country merchants
wete In the cily to select their di v Roods
stocks, and. Ju.lg.ng from their reports,
the farmeis of the state ure well enough
J'leased with their crops that they will
not grumble at having to pay higher prices
for many lines of goods this fall. Jobbers
In all lines report a prosperous business.
The most marked activity Is In the packing
rooms of the dry goods houses, where so
much work is on hand that there is
scarcely room to move around.
The greatest difficulty In the present drv
good situati m Is tiie prompt delivery of
goods. Jobbers are experiencing much
trouble in secutlng prompt delivery of pop
ular lines from the factories, and Ibis
has had the effect of delaying shipments
to retail customers. An advance of cent
In checked gingham has been made In
the last few days and a further adv. men
Is expected In bleached and brown cottons.
On bleached goods It Is stated bv leading
selling agents that present stocks are In
adequate to supply demands.
The sugar market for the week has shown
considerable strength and the demand has)
been In luany cases far beyond anticipa
tions. Refiners are from a week to tw.
weeks behind In filling orders and am
only taking orders subject to that much
delay In shipping. However supplies aro
now beginning to come forward more)
freely and the Jobbers expect to be ahliv
to fill fall orders promptly. Sugar has ad
vanced ten points in the week. The west
ern railroads are making mint her effort t-
settle the rate war. A meeting was held
In Chicago a few davs ago to arrange fur
a conference of the eastern, gulf und west
ern lines as soon as possible.
Light Movement of Coffee.
The movement of Brazil coffee to datn
Is only one-third of the movement for tho
same period of last year. Fur the week
there was an advance of cent on sevens.
The advance thus far has applied to grades
from sevens down. Although the move
ment Is light, lt Is thought that the crop
Is a lar;e one.
The tomato market continues to interest
buyers. Advances have been made In Bal
timore, Indiana and Missouri, and at tint
advance there are more buyers than sellers.
Every report that comes from Maryland
is of a gloomy nature, Indicating greatly
reduced acreage and a very meager setting
of fruit on tiie vines. It Is predicted that
there will be a further advance In th
prlcp of tomatoes, both spot and futute.
This will be sure to come, unless condi

of the re poind shortage and there Is hi
very much stronger feeling on standard and
low grades than has been evident for sonm
time; In fact, almost everything in tho
line of canned goods Is showing u de
cided shortage over tho pack of last year,
and pome of the wise ones are now saying,
"look out for corn." One tiling Is very
sure, that at the prices now ruling tho
country will use an enormous amount of
this article, and any kind of a serious re
port would quickly set the market going.
There Is a very nenvy demand for ounned
fruits of almost every description. Every
thing In the way of pie goods Is In active
request in the larger markets. Packers
have withdrawn prices on all low gradn
peaches and are not disposed to accept
any new business on peaches alone. Apples
are In a fair demand, with sellers offerlmt
In a small way at the advance noted a
week ago. Continued reports of poor crop
prospects add considerably to the strength
of the situation.
High-Priced Dried Frolt.
Not In a long time has there been such
an excited market In dried fruits In Cali
fornia. Prices have gone by leaps and
bounds, until today the market price for
choice peaches Is almost 3 cents per pound
higher than the opening. The crop of
apricots in sight is much less than early
estimates and there aro comparatively few
first-class goyds obtainable. There will ba
a fair supply of discolored and slabby
goods. The present estimate on prunes
places the entire orop of California at a
trifle more than half the amount In sight
last full. Telegrams from the principal
Oregon prune markets report a marked
shortage In the prospective yield as the
result of excessive hot weather, and a
strongly advancing market on futures with
offerings limited. One message from Clark
county, t lie largest producing section In th
state, estimates Its total output at not over
fifty carloads. Spot raisins are almost ex
hausted and the market has been moved
up hi to cents on seeded and loose during
the week. The lliu crop will be, according
to reliable estimates, less tlian two-thirds
of the 1S4 crop. This year there Is m
carry over from the previous crop, whereas
last year the curry over from the pre
vious year was 1,600 carloads. The situation
Is further strengthened by the belief that
the market of the 1906 crop, loose and
seeded, will, us the result of the strong
packer-grower combination, open at a hlgli
figure. Evaporated apples have ugaln ad
vanced and ure in light supply. The rasp
berry crop is reported to be about half of
what lt was last year and many shippers
have now entirely withdrawn from tha
market.
Salmon Pi-Ices This Week.
No prices have been named on sockeysi
salmon, but thev probably will be inuda
early In the week. The pack of sockeye up
to last Monday was 600.600 cases. The run
is sluck and a total puck of not more than
010,000 cases Is looked for. The opening
prices are exacted to be around $1.36 f..r
talis, $1.45 for Hats and $1 for halves f. o h.
coast. The price on halves, if made at II.
will be fully 10 cents higher than was ex
pected several weeks ago. Prices on red
Alaska show no improvement
In general, prices on fish are about the
same; altbough family Whitehall s a llttl
llrmer. Spot stocks are light and the slza

quality than that from Gieon Hay Higher

Tho old Holland herring is about cleaned

catch being alut a third as large. Job
bers do not expect us low pri.es at any
time of the year as were made last year.
Fancy groceries of every description are
moving fairly well. Imported sardines are
attracting considerable attention, as up lo

but on sprats as well, and higher prices are
