As a rule they are men whose homes are at a distance, and being employed constantly through- out the week they find time only on Sun- day to go to the postoffico to got their mail. The man brightens up with a smile of ploasure as countenance of one he roceives a lotter from the loved onos at home, and he hurries off to a corner to tear .open the envelope and read tho contents, He is soon followed by another to whom o lotter brings the sad intelli- gonce of death, or misfortune, and as he reads the tears roll down his cheeks, third man, young in years, steps o the window and is handed a letter from the ‘old man.’ He smiles as ho finds a re mittance of money enclosed, and he has tens with a_companion to a neighbor- ing n,8aloo which is entored through & back door, to ‘smile’ again. The next man at the window is disappointed. There is no letter for him and he does not know what to make of it. He is fol- lowed by a beardless youth, who, when he gets a letter,, directed in a delicate haud, knows that it is from the girl he left behind him, when he came west to make his fortune. ~ The love-lotter is too precious te be read in such a public place in the prosence of so many vulgar, star- ing eyes. So ho puts it carefully in his mside vest pocket, next to his heart, and hurries to his room. Thebe, all alone, he alternately reads the missive of love and gazes upon the author’s picture, which hangs upon the wall, at the lead of his bed. He reads it once, twice, thrice, and then feels better. He doesn’t wait a week to reply, but puts in the whole afternoon of that day in answering it. Some of the men in the long line receive only news- papers, but as they are from home and chronicle all the local events, they are almost as good as letters. And so it goes on_through all the long line. 1t is a variation of pleasure, sorrow and dis- appointment. Ves, the Sunday line at the_postoffice is, indeed, an interesting study.” **x ——“The cheapest thing in the world is a newspaper,” remarked Cal. Schultz, & veteran printer, who is the editor of The Newspaper Union. ‘‘Every man and woman who can read ought to be able to take at least one newspaper. Just thing of getting The Chicago Zribune or Times for five cents a copy, the copies ranging from eight to twenty-four pages of fine type—in fact more reading matter than is contained in a good sized book. Think of getting such & good newspaper as Tue Ber delivered at home for fifteen cents a weel What is there that for such a price affords more pleasuze and general intelligence than the newspaper? There is nothing that'can be compared It is the daily history of the world’s events, and not to read the news- papers is to be ‘out -;f the world.’” «x ——“If 1 were !jm government of the United States I would furnish the post- office with decent pens anl penholders,” remarked a gentleman in the money order department of the Omaha post- office, as he threw down a pen and holder not fiv for use. *‘Be careful of that pen- holder,” said Mr. Gridley, the money order clerk. “‘It'sthe best we have. We sent in a requisition to_the government for a supply of pens and penholders, and they sent us back a small handful of pens and one dozen holders. o you see that we have to be economical,” Itis a no- ticeable fact that the public institutions and offices invariably luppl for the use of their patrons the thickest ink, the poorest pens, and the most miserable holders possible. **x ——*If that hack could talk,” said a well-known all-night hackman to the Ber's Mar About Town, *it could a tale unfold, in fact several tales, that would fill the Bee for several issues. Yes, if that hack could talk, you would never lack for sensations.” ““Well, can't you talk ?” the hackman was asked. “Of course I can, but T .can't give anything away. 1t would be unprofessional, as the lawyers say. That hack has hauled home many a drunken man, whowouldn’t have it known for the world. It has) conveyed men and women, who claim to be respectable, to.and from the road-houses. | It has carried eminently respectable men to places where they would not like to be seen. ‘Occasionally women, who claim to be decent. have been on a spree in that hack. ‘Gamblers bave ridden home many a time in that vehicle late at night rather than take chances of being ‘held up’ and robbed of 'their winnings, Young sports and women of the town patronize the night hack.” “‘How does! this business pay you?” *Very well. 1t) beats day work all to pieces. Night service is expensivo. And then when I have a piece of cordidential work to do that is where my patrons are very timid and are afraid ‘of being given away—I| get well paid. 1 have frequently received as high as ten dollars for a few hours ser-| vice, while a 5 bill for an hour or two/| is a very common thing, These high prices of counse ave paid by the high-| toned patrong, who know that a little ex-| tra pay will induce a man to keep a sccret better, Of coursefrom ordinary customers men who do_everything open and above board, and do not care what the world says--1 only receive ordinary pay. Mind you the high prices I have spoken of are unsolicited on my pamt. W Iam asked what my bill ie, 1 nover ask more than my regular price. As a rule my high-toned patrons never ask me wkat 1 char, a].l rITl:!s ten dolla ‘Stick that in it away,’ and and hand it to me, and say our pocket. Don't giv, say, ‘Mum’s the worti’ [ **s “I have come into tewn with my wife to buy a few Christmas presents. 1 don’t expect to live to see another Christ- mas,” said ex-Mayor Deland of the once flourishing city of Florenee to the Brk's | Man About Town, *‘How's that!” hej was asked. *“‘Well, you see, I am an| octogenarian. 1 will be eighty years old next July, if [ live. ButIhardly expect to get there.” “Mr, Deland, you have seen many wonderful changes in your life time.” “*Yes, indced. Eighty years take in the greater part of our country’s history. 1come from an old Freuch {family, My grandfather, Geneal Deland, came to this country before the rev tion, and helped to sow the seeds of lib- erty. My father was a revolutionary sol- dier, and was a companion and friend of Tom Paine, My uncle was a lieutennt- colonel of artillery in the war of 1812, The greater part of my life was speut in Now York state. My home was in Oneida county. I was the engineer who ran the first focmunlivu between Utica and Schenectady. The engine looked like a cooking stove on wheels, and it wasn't much larger, There was no cab L) . simply pull out a five or |y for the engineer, who stood on a little platform and ran the machine. Tho pas senger cars were not as good as the box cars of to-day. A lot of Butterworth stage coaches were put on car trucks and used for passenger conches.” ‘‘How did people liye in those days.” worked. We had no money to speak of. Wo simply exchanged work and csmmo. dities with each other. When we wen visiting at night we carried torches to light us on our way through the woods, and we marked trees along our path so that we could find our w back. Bofore we statted for home everybody got down on their kneos and prayed. 1t was earnest, sincere prayer, too.” ‘Do you not often wonder at the marvellous improvements in mechanisni, science and art!” ‘‘Oh, bless your soul, of course I do, my boy. But life is too short to talk about these things. If men had told us when T was a young man sixty years ago, of the telegraph, tho sewing machine,the telophone, the clectric light,and the thou- sand machines and improvements of the last few years, and that our country would be covered with railroads, and | that we would have fifty million people in sixty years, ho would have been. sent to an insane asylum, come to Nebraskal years ago, when 1 Jocated at Fisronce. There was a time when Florence was a large city, and there was almost as much difference between Florence and Omaha as there is now between Omaha and Florence. The Mormons were at Flor- ence when I came there. Brigham Young had gone west, but hia house stood in front of my place, aud a little tree which he planted there has grown to mammoth proportions. Iam about the only one left of the pioneers of Florenco, I can tell you great deal about the early history of Nobraska, and some day I'il doit. 1 want to tell you now about an invention of mine, which is going to make a revolution in motive power. It is 8o simple that I cannot explain it to you half as well as if it were a compli- cated thing. It is a mechanism to be applied to any propelling power. I can break more praiie in one day with it than can be done with six yoke of oxen in a week. I have applied this mechanism to a fri-cycle and have ridden over the roads and up hill and down with it at great speed. I am confident that on a smooth, hard road or a race track a mile a minute can be made with a veloci- pede having this mechanism applied to it. This mechanism can be apphed to each side of a locomotive, greatly increas- ing its power of speed, at a cost of only $20. It can be applied to any machinery, on land or water. I have applied it tc a little set of saw mills, which I intend soon to exhibit. 1 began work on this invention when I lived in New York, but have neglected it. Now, however, 1 have taken hold of it again, and hope to have it perfected before 1 die. 1 shall get a patent for it. When it is perfected I propose to first introduce it in practi use on the macadam road between Troy and Albany, and on the big basin at Al- bany to tow canal boats, and also on the Hudson river.” DESERTION IN THE ARMY. A FortjRobinson Officer Defends Gen. Howard and the Branding Business. To'the Editor of The Bee. In the editorial columns of your vaper of the 13th inst., under the caption, “Branding Deserters,” there appears an article containing severe strictures upon General Howard, copied from The New York Sun, which, in my judgment, do in- justice to that officer, besides containing certain statements at variance with facts. It is stated by The Sun that ‘‘the annual military reports are replete with evidence that desertion is largely provoked by in- justice to enlisted men,” and further on that “‘incentive to it (desertion) is the treatment of soldiers as laborers, toolong interval between pay days, improper management of the clothing accounts, unsatisfactory rations and the abuse of | th avthority by incompetent ofticers.” If there be evidence in annual reports showing that desertion is provoked by in- justice to-enlisted men, I have read these apers without discovering it, and it may ge safely said that the ration is sufficient, that.clothing accounts are properly kept, and that the abuse of authority by in- competent, or for that matter by com- petent, officers is rare indeed. The two grams of truth in The Sun’s summary of causes for desertion will be found, I think, in the reference to the loag inter- val between pay,days and the use of sol- diers as laborers, There exists in the line of the army but little difference of opinion on these points, The Sun then goes on to sneer at General Howard for having recommended that deserters be branded, while in the same report he calls attention to the madequacy of reli- gious {wuvision at certain posts. If there be any inconsistency in Gener- al Howard's position asa Christian, in this regard, 1 am {forced to confess that my mind is so constituted, that I can- not«discern it. Desertion is a high mili- tary offense and as such, requires severe punishment. The object ef all punish- ment is the prevention of crimo rather than_the infliction of ponaltics upou criminals; o Cbhristians and those who are not Christians being equally interest- ed in the maintenance of law and order, should certainly have no difference of opinion as to the establishment of & pen- alty sufficient to prevent the commission of crime or to lessen, at least, the num- ber of offenders. This being the case a man's oonscience as & member of society, be it in a civil or military community, is brought face to face with but one ques- on, an is, especially £ he be one ir: suthority, to advoeate the infliction of a puningv ment that in his mind will best bring about the result desired, viz,—the pre- vention or diminution of crime, Capital punishment, is, in the best opinion of the civilizedjpeople,the bestand only aaequate penalty for murder, and, however revelting its execution may be to the Christian’s mind, it can hardly be said that his adherence to the stern deo- mand of justice, for which he has biblical authority,is inconsistent with his charac. ter. 'To a soldier, be he Christian or no, desertion is a heinous offense, and though this is indeed the age of sentumentality awd gush, I think few thinking men can find fault with General Howard for re- commending a punishment for this crime that will by placing an indelible mark upow the offender’s person (invisible at least said offender from again and again entering the ervice that he may, af- ter drawing money and clothing, again and again desert, *OK Forr Ropisson, Neh., Dee. 15, 1883, FOUR BEAU TINUL CARDS.

An Unprecedented Business in Holl- . day Goods, Rarely, or porhaps never, has the mount of boliday purchases in this city been equal to what it was on Saturday afterncon and evening last. From an early hour in the afternoon until mid night, or later, stores and shops were literally packed. There were people who had selected their holiday offerings and | were calling to take them; there weri many who were making moro purchase It was evening of “‘pay-day” for many Y"“N"‘ and they purchased iiberally. 3undles and packages were overywhere, Up and down, both sides of the street men, women and children were carrying them, The flood of postoffice business, of which an account is given elsewhere, showed that our people remembered their out-of-town and far-away friends. Saturday last ought to be remem- bered as shopping-day. The ladies, especially, were out in great numbers. It might be interesting to know, if it could be known, what every- body bought, and where and to whom it was sent. The amount of useful and comfortable articles purchased will show that during this, the happiest season of the year, the poor are not forgotten, Many humble homes will be made happy to-morrow by the generous domation of some unknown giver. .Nor is tho end yot. To-night is Christmas ove, and the children will be remembered, So another shopping-day, though probably not with the rush and crowd of Saturday, may bo looked for to-day. Let all who can re- member their friends, or the . deserving poor, with some token, no matter how small, It is sure to be approciated, and may catry memories lasting beyond many Christmas soascns. o —— A bad taste in the mouth means a bil- ious attack, Samaritan Nervine is the cure. “For 13 years I had Dyspepsia,” wrote John Albright, of Columbs “Samaritan Nervine cured me. gists all keep it, 81 OITY COUNCIL.

Francis was formerly .employed as delivery olerk for Spetman’s grocery, at Twelfth and Douglas streets. Satur- day he went to Fearen's cigar store, on Farnam stroet, and got 200 cigars, saying they were for Mr. Spetman. Afterwards it was learned that Spetman had not sent hip for the cigars. Last night Francis came again to Fearon's place and wanted more cigars. The clerk, pretending to show him some more gcods, asked him to step into the vault. He went inside. Immediately the clerk locked the door, and Mr, Fearon went after a policeman. An officer came and took Francis to jail. He will De . examined this morn- ing. The prisoner was searched, and scme small change and several bills, which it is said hehad been trying to collect, although not authorized to do so were found. l‘smncin‘ record is not good. When hewas delivering goodsfor Spetman he borrowed change from customers in the name of the firm. A warrant was issu- ed for him for this, but he was never ar- rested, His last offense is a serious one, and he will probably be punished as the law directs, ARRESTED FOR ASSAULT. In a row on Twelfth street last evening a man named Quinland kicked a boy so severely that it was for a time thought that the victim of the assaultwas in great danger. Quinland and another man, Mike Gilligan, then went to a saloon ou Capitol avenue and Tenth street and got into more trouble. They were arrested. Quinland was afterwards released on bail, and will appear in police court this atternoon. It is expected that other parties concerned in the last row will be arrested. &5 T ST VL Ay Gentle Women Who want glossy, luxuriant and wavy tresses of abundant, henutli’uf Hair must use LYON’S KATHATRON.
