THE DAILY BEE~-OMAHA, TUESDAY. JANUARY 22, 1884, o s v g e AR s, e et s Mischievous Malaria. To say that malaria is mischievons is to put it very mildly. It is all that and more. , It is cunning, deceitful, treacherous, sly, and underhanded. 1t does its work in the dark, and in such a sly way that much of the mis- chief is done before it is discovered. It saps the foundations of a health system. It robsthe blood of its vital- ity, demoralizes the liver, confounds the stomach, and makes the victim wish he were in his grave. Itissad tosee peoplesit down in their misery, content to be the victims of mischiev- ous malaria, and thinking that noth- ing can be done for them. The power of BROWN's IRON BITTERS over the wmischiefs of malaria has been so am- plly proved that there is no reason why anybody who can procure a bottle of this Prince of Tonics shall suffer. Great is the power of malaria, and great are its (Yisnstmus effects, But greater far is the beneficent in- fluence of BROWN's IRoN BITTERS, ‘The preparation of iron in this favor- ite family remedy ‘can be taken without ruining the teeth or produce. ing constipation and headache. ¢ - A’M’EfiOgTW%h% VETEBLNATES FOR THE CURE OF ALL DISEASES OF . | e, 3 HOR!

TRawlins, once considered the most desolate place on the road, is now one with many attractions, big shops, pros- perous merchants, stock men, etc. Winter not a good season to note improvements along the lino of road throu;{,h Wyoming, and yet we cannot help but observe some of them. The alkali deserts of the past have become cleared of the excess of caustic soda in the soil, through increased moisture and rain-fall,and the land has been so clothed with grasses as to make a good grazing country. This one feature about the en- tire count; lyiniwen of the Missouri river is making the great plains the best stock and farming lands in the country, and the same beuneficial climaticinfluences have leaped over the great ranges and are fast producing a change which will in time bring under subjection to cultiva- tion millions of acres now considered worthless. Then there are the changes along the Union Pacific, which can be seen at all times. [ mean the new build- shops and other improvements, sp! up all llong the road, The bleak desert of the past is chai ing into interesting towns, fine res dences, shaded walks, where reside a re- fined citizens! It has been the railway, cattle inter- ests, mining and some other industries ich conspired to make these changes, and these same interests are all in the time umwing in importance, and hence the country is destined to grow in popu- lation. ‘'yoming to-day is the most im- ortant coal mining country top in cattle raising and grazing. ‘The Union Pacitic operates twelve coal mines in Wyoming and one in Utah, which in the aggregate send out an aver- coal per day. At age of 4,100 tons of Carbon three mines are operated, turn ing out 1,300 tons daily; Rock Springs, five mines, 1,600 tons; Almy, two, 800 i ; and Grass Oreek, Utah, one mine, 200 tons. These mines give employment to about 2 All these mines except those at T'win Creek supply the market with conl as well as lupglyiug the road. The tons; Twin Creek, two, tony 200 men, Union Pacific also at Erie, two at Como, one at one at Lo o; the total daily outpu being about 1,300 tons. This great i dustry is all the time becoming greater, the demand increasing with every new settler, increase of business on tne roads and extension of country supplied through opening up new lines of communication. Portions of both Idaho and Montana now draw supplies of fuel from Wyoming. ‘While traveling over the road we can not hu:g note with interest the changes wrough with some of the terminal towns which spring up like mushrooms and have gone Bryan was Now nothing remains but the depot and three shells, where years ago all the boots on in|had lown almost as suddenly, one of the liveliost of them or four emst! was life and bustle, The graves of men who died with their Bryan in its palmy days, have about dis. appeared as perfectly as did the town nywflu lhopl: were yrsmuvul to Green ter river, Granger was once noted as a station verland stage line, and long be- on the fore the Union Pacific drove that class of trans) standing was the scene of lively skirmish The Transformation of the Desert Into The Progressof the Principal Towns SauT LAk, January 17.—A ride over gress which has been made in Wyoming In 1867 the country eler struck out into the ‘“‘Great American yoar, and has grown to a_beautiful city, where there are more wealthy men than 1t in the ways, that has made Cheyenne such a pleasant place, and the same may be said This reminds us of some incidents of In 1869 Dr. Latham published of articles on stock raising on tho west of 'ennsylvania, and it ranks almost at the two mines aldwin and but remember the past and hope to see it boom considerably in the spring, Piedmont waa once full of life, and money was plenty tnere, the cutting of wood and lumber, and burning of char- conl giving employment to large number of'men and teems, The charcoal kilns are now idle, and the town does not present much appearance of life, but its loeation with great bodies of timber back of it, may again bring prosperity to the place. Hilliard is another similar example of decline in the charcoal business. Seven years ago the demand kepu twenty-four kilna busy, and the Hilliard Flume com- pany flourished and made good times for the entire tow, then numbering over 300 persons, The company still has a good flume about thirty miles long, tapping a timber district on the headwaters of Bear river, just across the line in Utah. Wood can be floated that thirty miles at a cost of thirty or forty cents a cord, and loga and lumber in proportion. The company have good sawmills at Hilliard, and several thousand cords of wood and hun- dreds of logs in their yards, The town is noted for vacant houses and lack of busi- ness activity; but presperity is likely to smile again on the place and reward the owners of the property now lying idle. Evanston is a pretty place in summer, or at any time when t{munuw is not piled up in drifts as a¢ present. Morchants, mechanics and otheis appear to be doing well, while the class of citizens and va. rious social and other advantages are such as to make this place pleasant to reside in. At all locomotive stations massive en- ginos with hugo snow plows attached aro ready to engage in a vombat with snow drifts along the line. In early days the rcad had many detentions on account of snow and your correspondent was among the unfortunates who were detained by blockades on many occasions. Had the road been prepared as well in 1870-1-2 to fight snow nlockades as it is now, there would not have been much detention of trains, and millions would have been waved to the company. In the line of railway improvements the progress made in machinery and appliances for raising blockades of all kinds have fully kept pace with other improvements, and the ay has passed when there will ever be any prolonged blockade by snow or floods on any first-class railways. Not only have all the chances, privations and sufferings of snow blockades been re- moved on this great continental route, but traveling at any season of the year over the line has become both a comfort and a uxury, With the thermometer at its lowest the cars are so well warmed and ventilated as to make them as pleasant to passengers as if sitting around their own fires in their parlors, 'The road is so smooth that one finds no trouble in read- ing or writing while moving through the country at a rapid rate. The writer of this has noted the climatic and other changes on the plains and through this great mountain_rogion along the line of the Union Pacific, throughout Utah and Idaho, the past fifteen years, and he is of the opinion that in the not distant future very much of the country will become productive and furnish homes for a large population. Crops of grass, grain and vegetables are now raised in localities where all was barren ten years ago, and there is large tracts of grazing lands where alkali, dust and greaswood predominated in the past.

Recollections of the Time When He Stood Behind a Louisville Bar—A Favorite of Fortune, Louisville Courler-Journal. Among the number of men who have leaped from comparative poverty and ob- scurity in this country in the past half contury, none stand out more prominent- ly than John W. Mackey, the California millionaire, at present living in Paris, His name is known all overthe continent and the vast project of laying another cablo across the Adtlantic; bringing the continent into instantaneous connection with ours, with which he is so greatly identified, brings him before the people again. To those familiar with his career in the past few years, and knowing his immense wealth and splendid surround- ings, it seems almost miraculous that, within the memory of comparatively young men, he was poor and obscure, without a dollar in the world. Although much has been written and said about him, as o matter of course, but fow porsons are acquainted with his early life, and the fact that he was at one time a resident of this city has never been made public. As a reporter was passing down Main street, yesterday, o gentleman standing at the corner of Twelfth remarked: *‘You see that building over there!” pointing to the house on the northwest corner of Twelfth and Main. Upon the reporter's mj)lyinu loes much in the coal b to his lot was awaiting him. In 1849 the old fover Was at its height, and every Ay émigraiits were leaving for the Pa- cific conat, exger to reap the harvest of gold which they confidently expected waa waiting for Shew. Mackey was one of the first persoms in this city to be afflicted with the fever, and he endeavor- ed to induce a numder of friends to go with him, A party of about twenty-five waa finally made up, md he waa one of the leadera in it. He sold his property interests for a small sum, and that was the Iast heard of him until Ie jumped sud- denly into the lap of fortume. *'1 was,” said the gentleran, “‘in Cali- at the time of his arrival there, ond watched his eareer with considerable in. terest. He had previously kmown Flood and O'Brien, and they were very fast friends, They wero at that time keeping asaloon in San Francisco, and Mackey worked in the mines. fields of wealth then were the @alifornia and the Consolidated Virginia, and he worked in both of them. s wasa o very shrewd man, tolerably well edu- cated, and had some little knowladge of civil engineering. Ho clearly saw that money invested in the stock of either of these mines was sure to bring good re- sults, and every dollar he could raise was invested in that way. At this instance Flood and O'Brien wens in with him,and the threo purchased stoek at $3 a share. Soon after it went up to $7 and grada. ally increased to $18. In this simple manner their fortunes wero made, and: almost before they knew it they were wealthy men. Mackey then lived in o frame house on Sutter streot and his fig: ure became a familiar one to the frequen- ers of the mines. ‘‘He was not married then, but met the women who became his wife soon afterward. This in itself is a little romaunce and illustrates his character, She waa a widow whenhebecameacquaint- ed with her, and was the daughter of Maj. Hungleford, of New Orloans. She married a doctor and moved to Nevada City, where her husband died some time afterward. He was a poor man, and left his wife and child in rather destitute circumstances. Mackey heard of this somo months later, and started a sub- scription for the widow’s benett, con- tributing liberally himself, and raising a neat little sum. This so vouched the widow’s heart that she called on him to thank him for his kindness. She was young and protty, with a childish face and winning ways, and captured Mackey's heart completely. Hiscourtship was a quiet one, and of short duration, and eoon the pretty widow united her destiny with his, Mackey was then a rich man, but he kept widening his field of action until in connection with Flood, O'Brien and Fair he established the Ne- vada .bank, and Louis McClain went from Baltimore to manageit. Since that time Mackey’s career has been familar to almost every sehwool boy. Unlike the majority of men, however, he does not forget that he was once dependent him- self, and his charity has been great. He is a member of the Catholic church, and established an orphan asylum for the children of that denomination in Ne- vada City, which he still supports. He is always ready to give for charity'’s sake, and in addition is polite and courteous to everybody." ———— ScrorFurA.—A medicine that destroys the germs of Scrofula-and has the power to root it out is appreciated by the af- flicted.

After dancing through several measures-of his music, to which appropriate words were set and sung, he would give the chorus, “And every timehe turned about, he stood just so.” Buiting the action to the vord, the dancer would strike statuesquo at- titudes, represemting ““Cain slaying Abel,” *Ajux. dofying the lightning,” stc. Thus was born the act ever since known as ““Fred Wilson's: Black Statue Dancs,” Mz Wilson being: she originator thereof. Last evening a reporter for The Frae Press strolled into bhe Park theatre, and at the door he was stopped by a somo- what portly man whoso face showed a trifle Zof uge-marks.

He evidently knew when I was not in the shop. He came in one day and said to one of my clerks, ‘‘Is Mr. Johnson in? ‘No,” was the reply. ‘I, am sorry for that,” he said. ‘I wish to buy a pair of diamond ear-rings for my wifew’ This was repeat- ed on four or five suecessive days.

He sat: down, wrote a short note, folded it and put it inan envelope, and directed it to me.
