One of them, however, which hedid grant aome months ago has never been published, nor didhe, as is'usual with him, print the reasons. They would not now be allowed to be r3 | given, if there was any probability that tho aotual names concerned, or even the places where the incldents ocourred, should be correctly given The story is a true romance, probably seldom equalled in the most emotional fiction, Early last spring a young man, name for present purposes Smith, was em- ployed as a gardener by a very wealthy gentleman to be called for the present purpose Mr. Jones, who lived wo will say on the Hudson, near New York. He was discovered one afternoon by Mr. Jones, on his unexpected return from the city, in the very act of stealing from Mrs. Jones' room with some of her jewelry 1n his possession and her bureau drawer opened and rifled. He was seized and charged with burglary, and, after vain endeavors to escape, admitted his guilt and was imprisoned. Mrs. Jones was greatly distressed when she heard of it, and begged hard that he be not prosecuted, as he was a groat favor- ite, being a youth only 19, of a very handsome presence and rather well edu- cated. She pleaded so strongly with Mr. Jones that he sought to hush the matter up, but other servants had been wit- nestes to the disturbance at his detection and they began to trlk so freely of young Smith’s guilt that the authorities coi pelled him to enter a complaint. Y was lodged in jafl, had an early trial, promptly confessed his guilt, and was sontenced to five years in Sing Sing. Mrs, Jones was so overcome with grief that she was too sick to attend the trial even to identify the jewelry. After he had been in Sing Sing a few months, Smith was transferred, at his own request to Auburn, A few months ago a lady, heavily veil- ed, cslled to see the governor, aund was received by him at his public desk. Without unvailing, she said that she came to see him about a pardon. He asked her the particulars of the case, und she stated that of young Smith, as narrated above. “On whltdgronndl do you ask for a pardon?” sald the governor, **He is innocent,” she sald faintly, “COan you prove that? Nothing more is needed than proof to that effect,” an- swered the governor, “Yes—I can prove it!” “Then I could possibly grant him a new trial, but that would be the most I could do. If your nmew evidence is suf- fiolent, that will be all you want. What evidence have you?" “He did not take the jewelry.” ‘ilf l, remember rightly, he pleaded ilty.’ “But he is notguilty, governor; indee not guilty.” ‘Aro you a relation of his?" Yes, sir,” ehe roplied. ‘I am his sister,” “‘Well, well!” said the governor, some- what blufily. *“You see the district atior- ney, lay your evidence bef re him,and on his sending it to me I will consider the application.” The lady ling<red, and in a trembling voice add low tone, saia: “Can I not apeak to you alone upon the matter?” Somewhat parplexed the governor es- corted her into an inner room, when.an astounding story was told him by a beau- tiful woman in greav mental anguish, She, too, was guilty, She loved the handsome gardener, and she was the wife whose jewels had been stolen. Upon the verge of a discovery of their secret by the husband, no means of egress for the young lover which would not be seen and excite suspicion if not be proof, she had hastily hidden herself in a closet while he had broken open the drawer of the bureau and seized the jewels just in time to give the astonished husband a wrong clew to the meaning of his presence there. The lady told her story with her faco buried in her hands and trembling violently. *‘For all these months,” she sald at last, getting down on her knees, *‘he has been suffering there for me, and I can do nothing but beg for him.” It was many moments before the joverner could reply. He is an im- pressionable man, and this case of d moved him very much, Presently he said: *‘Madam, if your story is true, it will become my duty to pardon him, as not guilty of the crime for which he is charged, But I must have absolute proof that it is true, and I must have proof that you are the person you repre- sent yourself to ba,"” She made a gesture, *Wait s mowent, 1 must also require him, if pardoned, to absent himself from this country for at least the resi of his term, and I must be convinced from him that ho did act, as you say solely in order to save you.” Sume days later one of the governor's personal staff was quietly stopping at a small hotel in the village near which Mr. Jones was living, In the afternoon he was waited upon by Mr, Jonesin a coupe, who, upon introducing himself, warmly invited the staff officer to dine with him at his home. At the head of the table sat a queenly beauty—the hero- ine of the mysterious visit to the gover- nor., She looked pale and agitated, and managed with difficulty to act her part as hostess, A few woeks later a veiled lady called ina close coupe upon the Warden of Auburn prison. Withont the interchange of a word, the warden conducted her to a small parlor, Where she was left entirel alone, Inamoment thedoor was opened, and a young man, clad in an ordinary citi- zen's “suit, entered the room. No one came with him, and the door was closed as soon as he entered. Ina moment he rec- ognized the figure before him, Ho sprog forward, L —— Laird’'s Land, York Times, Inspector Greene was sent out by the charges against Congressman Laird In the alleged Stinking Water land frouds.

Simon Kelloy, under the firm name of Kelloy & Laird, That they desired to go into the business of ralsing cattle, and for that purpose went into Chaso county, and with a surveyor loosted land covering water s front on Stinking Water creek for twelve rmilu. There is no way for ono or two men 4o zoours suzh vast tracts of govern ment domain except by fraud. The law oontemplates that this land shall bejre- served for homes for the people, and {shall be held by actual settlers, The re- port shows that Kelley & Laird perpe- trated the necessary frauds to secure the land, and did secure control of it. That other men were after portions of the land and supposed they were settled upon it, but that the surveyor had been induced to locate them wrong, and leave the land open for Kolley and Laird. That Congressman Laird was upon the ground in person in company with Kelley the day prior to the opening of the M- Cook land office, and was also at McCook until the gang of frandulent homestead- ers, preemptors and tree claimers came down from Hastings, That one Starbuck, (you know Star- buck, Anti-monopoly (7) Starbuck) of Red Willow county, was employed by the firm of Kelley & Laird. That the officers of the land office were in collusion with Laird & Kelley and understood the plot. The actual settlers were thero before the land office opened, waiting with money in hand to file their papers. That Starbuck came in with Haétings strikers, Kelley with them. That the officers refused to open the office at the timoe appointed, but walted until Starbuck and the other bucks camo in when tho office was immediately de- clared open. That the officer refused to receive pa- pers from actual settlers, and accepted first of all a batch of them from Star- buck, and Kelley put up the fees for the entire crowd. Friendship may overlook the crime, partisan zeal and pecuniary interest may seek to excuse it, but it remains upon the record, black, hideous and inexcus- able. It is no light thing for a man to steal the patromony of the poor, It is a ter- rible thing for a man in_high office to be- tray the confidence of his constituents, to prostitute the power the people have given him for personal gain, and to use it to rob those who gave it. Why will you vote for one whom you know will use the power you give him to defraud you and others. o —— PILES! PILES! PILES! A SURE CURE FOUND AT wLAST! NO ONE NEED SUFFERL. A sure cure for Blind, Bleeding, Ttching and Ulcerated Piles has been discovered by Dr. Williams iun Indian Remedy,) called Dr. William’s Indian Pile Ointment. A single box has cured the worst chronic cases of 25 or 30 years standivg. No_ono need minutes after applying this wonderful s ing modicine, Lutions, instruments and elec- tuaries do more harm than good. William’s Indian Pile Ointment absorbs the tumcrs, al lays the intense itching, Sparticulnly at night after getting warm in bed,) acts as a poultice, ?l ves instant relief, and is prepared only for Piles, itching of the private parts, and for nothine else, Read what the Hon, J. M. Ooffinberry, of Cleveland, says about Dr, William’s Indian Pile Oointment: *‘I have used scores of Pile Cures, and it affords me pleasure to say that T have never found anything which gave such immediate and permanent_relief as Dr. Wil- liam’s Indian Ointment, For sale by all drug- ists and mailed on receipt of price, H0c and 31 Sold at retail by Kuhn & Co. C. ¥. GOODMAN, ‘Wholesale Agent. the e —— Hemarkable Ancient Ruins, The Chihuahua (Mexico) Enterprise reports the discovery of some ancient ruins on a hill or mountain four leaugues south of Magdalena, in Sonora. The hill is about seven hundred feet high, and half way up there is a layer of gypsum which is as white as and may be cut into any conceivable shape, yet suffi- ciently hard to retain its shape after being cut, 1In this layer of stone are cut hundreds upon hundreds of rooms from 6x10 to 16x18 feet square. So even and true are the walls, floor and celling, so plumb and level, as to defy variation, There are no windows in the rooms but one entrance, which Is always from the top. The rooms are but eight feet high from floor %o ceiling the stone is so white that it seems almost transparent, and the rooms are not at all dark. On the walls of these rooms are numerous hieroglyphics and representatlons of human beings cut in the stone in different places; but, strange to say, all the hands have five fingers and thumbs, and the foot have six toes. Charcoal is found on the floors of many of the rooms; implements of every description are to be found. The houses or rooms are one above the other to three or more stories high, but upon each story thery is a jog or recess to full width of the room below, so that they present the appearance of large steps leading up the mountain, This account needs verifica- tion, but if it is true, a very interesting addition has been made to the list of North American antiquities. o —— 100 Doses One Dollar, Is inseperably connectéd with Hood’s Sarsapanilla, and is true of no other med- cine, Itis an unanswerable argument as to strength and economy, while thou- sands tostify to its superior blood-purify- ing and strengthening qualities. A bot- tle of Hood's Sarsaparilla contains 100 doses and will last a month, while others will average to last not over a week. Hence for economy, buy Hood’s Sarsa- parilla. ——— Lincoln and Stephens, Augusta (Ga,)Ohroricle. Our friend, O. F. Gunther, of Chicago, whose collection of valuable manuscripts we have already referred to, sends us a copy ol the following from Abraham Lin- coln, the original of which ls now in his possession: WasniNatow, February 2, 1848, Diar WirLia:—1 just take up my pen to say that Mr, Stephens, of Georgis, a little slim, rn]n-lmx] consumptive man, with a voico like Logan's, has just concluded the very best speech of an hour’s length 1 have ever heard.

The walls and ceilings are black from the smoke of years, and the inky efforts of artistically dlsposed loungers. The floor is buried in a layer of leather chips a foot deep. From the midst of all little red-hot cylinder stove sends up its rickety pipe along the ceiling the chimney at the end. A board upon a shop tub serves asa seat for a neighbor who has dropped in to hear the news or to participate in the argument which In many shops is the feature of the evening. Perhaps if we look close, we may see on a convenient shelf a diction- ary or a few works of reference, which are often consulted to substantiate an assertion or settle a pispute, for in those days, before machinery came with its rattle and roar, conyersation was easily corried on, and habits of discussien naturally formed, so that prac tically each ‘‘gang” was a debating society on a small scale. Thus it was thatin these shops of the olden tlme was natured that spirit of intelligence for which the shoemakers of Massachusetts are noted to-day. In those days it was not necessary for They had more one of the most intelligent bodies of mechanics in the country, From _their ranks spranz such men as Henry Wilson, of Natick, William Lloyd Garrison, who learned the trade in Lynn, and Benjamin ‘W. Harris, who worked in Bridgewater, and was noted for superior workmanship. One day Mr. Harris arose from his bench in a moment of temper, and, seizing a hammer, nailed the half-finished shoe on which he was working, to the wall, and, leaving the shop, remarked that he was done with shoemaking forever. He never came back. I might mention many others who have made their mark upon the his- tory of the country, though they began life with the peg-hammer and awl, Now for a look at the present mode of manufacturing boots and shoes. The littlo one-story buildings have been re- placed by huge structures four and five stories high. Instead of each man mak- ing his own ‘‘case” throughout, he has one certain part assigned to him, and does nothing else. On the lower floor of the building is the sole leather room. Here the leather is received in rolls of two or three hundred pounds. Thi; aftgs being soaked in water until soft, run’ ugh machines by which it is cut into strips, skived, rolled, and died out into soles, inner soles and taps, the smaller pieces cut into liits for heels, This s the most dangerous room in the factory for the workmen because of so much knived machinery. It it a rare thing to find such a room that does not contain one or more employes minus a finger or thumb. Sometimes frightful accidents occur. . The racer, hugh mach- ine modeled something after the guillot- ine of France, ,is used in cutting the sides of leather Into srips. It contains a knife four feet long that would cut a man's arm off as easy a scissors cuts a thread. In the cutting-room we find long rowe of men at work at high benches cutting calf, kip, split, and other kinds of leath- er into various patterns for vamps. This is very particular work snd cannot ba done by machinery. From the cutting- room the leather is brought to the stitch- ing department, where at long rows of sewing machines men and womon are putting the vamps together and propar- ing them for the bottomer, The bottoming-room, which we next visit, is the largest in the factory. Here the *‘stock” from the eole leather room and the vamps from the stitching room come together and aro made up into boots and shoes. Around the sides benches are arranged at which the lasters work, while in the centec are tho ma- chines. The lasting of boots and shoes by machinery has not yet been accom- plished in a satisfactory manner, and, owing to the nature of the work, .probably mever will be, By the laster the work is made ready for the fitter, who tacks on the soles. By the use of the fitting machine one man does the work of twenty under the old method, The pegging machine was one of tho first labor saving inventions introduced into the bosiness, and has probably done more to break up the old system of manufac- ture than any other, It does the work of twenty or twenty-five men, the work is done better, and the machine occupies no more room than two men, Tho lasts are next drawn out,and the work is taken in hand by the edger. The edging ma- chine, like most of the boot and shoe machinery, does the work of twenty men though it ocoupies only the space of two. The work 1s now transferred to the heellng department. Tho heeling of shoes by machinery is one of the most in- teresting operations to be seen in the factory. The heels come from the sole leather room all prepsred for the ma- chine, and are fed in one at a time, The shoe is placed in position, the nails driven, the heel shaved, and the shoe re- leased, all in four seconds, With this machine some operators can heel 1,000 pairs of shoes per day. The shoes aro now made and ready to be finiehed, In the finishing room the bottoms are ecoured and brushed and the heels scoured and burnished by steam power, and the work is done better than by hand, with a saving of 80 to 85 per cent of labor, 'When finished the shoes are taken to the treeing room, Here the vamps secure the handsome form aud tinely burnished surface which make the shoe 80 attractive in the shoe ro. This work is done by hand, As it is upon the trecing that many grades of work depend for their sale, they vequire closer attention to details than a machine could be made to give, When treed the goods are packed for shipment in boxes contaiuing a case each.

The development of the Stock Yards—the necessity of the Belt Line Road—the finely paved streets—the hundreds of new residences and costly business blocks, with the population of our city more th doubled in the last five years, All thie is & great surprise to visitors and is the, admiration of our citizens. This rapid growth, the business activity, and the many substantial improvements made a lively demand for Omaha real estate, and every investor has made a handsome profit. Since the Wall Sireet panic last May, with the subsaquent cry of hard times, there has been less demaud from specula- tors, but a fair demand from investora secking homes, This latter class aro taking advantage of low prices in build- ing material and are securing their homes at much less cost than will be possible a year hence. Speculators, too, can buy real estate cheaper now and ought t> take advantage of present prices for future profits, The next few years promires greater developments in Omaha than the past five years, which have been as good as we could reasonably desire. New man- ufacturing establishments and large job bing housea are added almost weekly, and all add to the prosperity of Omaha. There are many in Omaha and through- out the State, who have their money in the banks drawing a nominal rate of n- terest, which, if judiciously invested in Omaha real estate, would bring them much greater returns. We have many bargains which we are confident will bring the purchaser large profits in the near future. ‘We have for sale the finest resi- dence property in the north and western parts of the city. North we have fine lots at reason- able prices on Sherman avenue,) 7th, 18th, 19th and 20th streets. West on Cuming, and all the leading streef® Farnam. Davenpsrt, in that direction. The grading of Farnam, Califor— nia and Davenport streets has made accessible some of tbe finest and cheapest residence property in the city, and with the building of th street car line out Farnam, the pro- perty in the western part of the city will increase in value. l ‘We also have the agency for the Syndi ! ate and Stock Yards proper- l ty in the south part of the city.
