It was undertaken partly a8 an expression of our apprication of the good sense of a majority of the voters of the atate of Ohio, and partly to hear from our local candidates for the legislature The exercises began before dark by rais’ ing a fine liberty pole 70 feet in length painted red, white and blue, and tipped with a Blaine and Logan streamer, twenty feot long, at the intersection of the two main streets of our village, After which a beautiful 16 foot star spangled banner was run up, and three hearty cheers given for our national em- blem, and three more for Blaine and Logan. As soon as fairly dark the Oak- land band began to play at the place of meeting, and soon an immense crowd and one hundred torches being distrbut ed did not near accomodate all who fell in line for the parade. Mr. Henry Steen was made marshal of the process- ion—Mr. Hub Hart in charge of band and Mr. R. A. Rock incharge of the ‘‘Sons of Veterans,” all of whom, when in line, made a grand and imposing procession. After parading the principal streets, a halt was called at the corner of Oakland avenue and 3rd street, where a large stand had been erected for speakers and music. The meeting was then called to order by Mr. W.A. Harding chairman of the Blaine and Logan club, who intro- duced the first speaker—Mr. E. W. Pet- erson, of Tekamah, candidate for member of assembly, who spoke at length in a plain, candid manner, upon the political issues of the day, and comparing candid- ates by reference to their public services, eto. | Mr. Peterson, though a young man, did great credit to himself by the splen- did manner in which he handled the subjects of his discussion. Mr. B. W. Everett,the other candidate for the assembly from Burt county, also Mr. Scisson, candldate for county com- missioner, were called for but did not make speeches. Mr. T. L. Lewis was the next speaker of theevening, and when introduced to his fellow townsmen was received with unbounded enthusiasm. He praceeded, in a clear knd eloquent manner to discuss protective tariff and other important mat- ters in this campalign, entertaining and holding the vast audience to the last word and eliciting frequent cheers and bursts of applause. Mr, P. ¥. Rourk, ex-county commis- sioner, who was on the platform, was called for and made an enthusiastic speech, The crowd clamored loudly and continuously for Mr. Watson Parrish,who appeared and excused himself on account of the lateness of the hour, but promis— ing to speak at some other time, before the close of the campaign. The speeches were Interspersed and the occasion much enlivened by the band and glee club, the latter a double quartette of ladies and gentlemen who sang some very fine cam- paign songs. At a late hour rousing cheers were given for our presidential candidates and for our local candidates, the speakers of the evening. The meeting created much enthusiasm among the people and was in every respect a success. It sets a ball in motion which will be kept rolling until after the 4th of November next. To the energy and push of one of our citizens (Mr. Watson Parrish) in procur- ing the torches, the fine pole and the beautiful flag, is due largely the success of this our firat rally. W. A.

Bruin's Sunday upon a Hotel Dining Ioom—A 8{nguiar Ohaset Cororano Crry, Tex., Oot. 16.—A party of hunters returning from a trip on the plains captured, eleven miles from town, a huge black bear, welghing in his half famished condition about 300 pounds. Sir Bruin showed little relish for his captors, and made determined re- sistance to the chains by which he was confined to a tough mosquite tree on reaching town, ~For days he would neither eat nor sleep, and kept the curi- ous at a respectful distance, as he 'paced unceasingly to and fro the length of his chain, rolling his blood shot eyes and giving vent to his rage and fear in snarl- ing. menacing growls. On Sunday morning, as the church bells were calling the children from all direction to Sabbath school, Sir Bruin waxed desperate, and with & powerful tug snapped the chain that held him and was off on a clumay gallop through town. A great hue and cry was raised and pur- suit made, and, as if by the irresistable magle of the famed ‘‘rat-catchor’s” musio the throngs of children were drawn along in the chase, forgetful alike of home and catechism. People, roused from their late Sunday snooze, streamed in the atreets in all stages of uniform. Butchers, in their white aprone, with up- raised clevers, flourished their shining OCTOBER 2), thing to shoot from in this sport. By wading, pulling and tugging, through mud and mire, he hauls the boat into deep waters, moors it to some muskrat’s den, then with gun by hia side, sits in silence till the sun comes up. THEN BRGINS THE FUN, The very firat flash of lightin the onst wakes the myriads of ducks that have slept in every little ‘‘alley” of this Iake of rice and weeds and rank grasses. Their *‘quack” is the first signal of the coming light., The reods and grasses form the hunter's blind-—behind it now, wide-awake and alert he lies, watching the leng open cut in the lake's vegetation that opens before him, *‘Whirr, whirr,” two or three birds rise and sink again, They're trying their wings. No use to fire yet, But suddenly way from the upper end of the waste of water and land, ringing down on the wind, comes the wierd cry of the first flock of the day. How slowly they circle and fly, in angles, in fanciful lettter ‘‘s'es” and ‘‘z's”. They come within range; thelr leader, an old bird of wary instincts, seems to scent the concealed hunters, and goes swinging to the right, but too Iate! ‘bang, bang,” go two barrels, and another shell sent qulckly home catches the rear bird of the train. How they fall! the dead with a s5lid “‘plump,” tho dying with a fluttering of wings and a beating of the air that is futile. So the sport goes on till the sun is set, with more or leas good luck. Sometimes the birds fly low and the shooting is easy; weapons in the safe background; dogs bayed, cats retreated bristling to the roof tops. ‘‘Rich man, poor man, beg- gar man, thief, lawyer, doctor, merchant chief,” all helped to swell tle motley throng and add to the din of the uproar. Bruin, thus hard beset, and having long fasted made a break for a large-paned window in the dining room of the Ren- drebrook Hotel, landing with a crash in the midst of the astonished guests, who “stood not upon the order of their going, but went at once” through all the available apertures in the opposite direc- tion. Their rate of speed was exceeded only by that of the wooly-headed waiters who fled, grey with terror, dragging table linen, silver and glass, ina glitter- ing train after them. Amid the clang and clatter, Bruin placed himself at bay in a corner, unconsciously, but undeni- ably “‘monarch of all he sugyeyed,” Wgs rief, however, was his reign. Soon a cow-boy entering the the long hall, threw a lasoo over his shoulders; a second and a third followed, and the great lngrz brute was dragged into the street- 'Chen a lively skirmish followed, causing a general stampede of the crowd, and thrue cowboys endeavoring to meunt their plunging, bucking, frightened ponies, who evidently did not like his bearship. The feat was accomplished, however, and then came the ‘“tug of war’—the harrassed brute, fairly at bay, lunged to the right and left, while the ponies with foot spread, bracing sturdily against the tremendous strains of the lariats wound about the saddle'horns, were with their riders dragged hither and thither over the hard, smooth ground. A girth snap- ped, and a saddle went spinning over the horse’s head, leaving the nimble rider astride the neck of the snorting equine, But the war was an unequal one, and Bruin at length, utterly spent, sur- rendered, and sullenly allowed himself to be led off toward the Zoo in jthe park. Crossing the Lonely Wall Creek, **Ursa Major's” spirit utterly failed him, and he laid him down in the shallow water and gave up the ghost. Disgusted with life in general, disappointed in particular of his meal of & blue-syed baby left to his tender mercy inthe hurried exodus from the dining-hall, Bruin felt that life was a delusion and a snare. Things were not what they seemed. So slipping the leash he went in search of the happy hunting grounds to take hfs chances at ‘‘hide and go seek” with his more familiar foe, the red man, i U e PILES!

Paul Pioneer Press, A cold gray morning when the north wind whistles right merrily, and the air is raw, in Dakota is considered a prime day for duck hunting. All through September the ducks were coming south- ward from their extreme northern haunts to the rice lakes and smaller pools, rich with all their succulent vegetation, of North Dakota—lingering there till the first flurry of snow hurties them out of the “runs” and ‘‘alleys” and narrow ‘‘passes” of these resorts to the sunny South, Itis a noticeable fact that, in the last of August, this species of game first turn from colder climates to warmer, wnd that this first flight rarely carries them any further than to Northern and Cen- tral Dakota, in the valleys of the Red and the Goose, in the marshy waters of the Wild Rice and the Cheyenne, and the lakes from Minnewaukan to Skunk, There they feed and fatten till the sever- u{] of the weather drives them out. He who is to the manor born finds duck hunting in Dakota the rarest sport of all the year. There is 8 and practice required in it that calls for nerve, en- durance and a fund of good humor that dashes off the chill of wet clothes, the keenness of the wind, the perils of a musk-rat house or & leaky boat. son of the soil prepar trlp something in lon. His shells are loaded both for duck and geese, and his gun well cleaned the day before the ex- pedicion. Early on the morning of the oventful day, with ammunition, dog, lunch, flask of whisky, high waist boots, old clothes, and shocking hat, he wends his way by team or on foot, to some famous “‘pass,” often even before the sun rises, to catch the very first circles of the birds at dawn, Arrived at the battle- field, he boards the old scow, generally a flat-bottomed boat of rude construc- tion, broad, and safe against tip-overs— very unwieldy, indeed, but just the!l at other times the range is long, the birds wild, and skill only fills the hunter’s bag with a bird or two. Occasionally the.| “‘tronk” of wild geese Is heard, and then great is the joy thereat if one is added to the other trophies of the day. Muskrat houses, built up of all the refuso of the lako by the muskrat, serve sometimes as very good posts from which to shoot, but one is apt to slip off and get a very cold, dirty bath and they are too often so ex- posed that the bird spies his would-be slayer before within range. All in all, the flat-hoat, moored behind high rushes, gives the best vantage ground from v hich to bag the game. To paddle them is hard, to pull them over bad places is excreable, but to fill them with ducks in Dakota marsh or rice lake is the sport of sports, - — A Valuable Ohill Tonic—Read this Testimony.

Early Lamb for Market, Inorder to realize the best prices for early lambs the ewes should come in not later than February. As they go about four months before lambing the ewes should be placed in the pasture with the rams as soon as possible, and should be fed with a ration of oats daily from then until the time the lambs are weaned, The trouble with the matter of securing early lambs is that the breeder has no control over them in regard to the time when they should be mated, but by se- lecting certain breeds for crossing and re- taining the early ewe lambs for breeding purposes the next season, he may suc- ceed in securing thelambs somewhat earlier each year, until they are dropped in January, instead of February. The difference of one month in the age of a market lambis quite an item, as very early lambs are sold when smaller better than those that came into market later; while the sooner they get into market the higher the prices obtained. Farly maturity and good quality of carcass cannot be obtained in a flock in a single season. As small breeds of animals mature earlier than do those of the larger kinds, owing to thelr not requiring so long a period auring which to grow, so do the females of the smaller breeds be- gin to breed sooner, The smallest of the breeds of sheep s the merino, which, when crossed on the common flock, adds early maturity and increases the weight of the of the fleece. Such a cross, how- over, 18 not the most desirable for pro- ducing the best lambs,as they lack in size and quality that which is gained by being dropped early. It should be the object of the farmer the next season to select his owes from among the earliest lambs of the previous spring, dls- carding all ewes that were Ilate lambs. These early ewes will begin to breed early, both on accouat of their age and from being of small breed, and they should be placed In a field together, in company with a ram of the large breeds, the Shropshire Down being excellent. The first season, when the common ewes are mated with the merino ram the pro- duce will combine the hardiness and ac- tlvity of both parents while the next season the Shropshire ram will give the produce greater size, During the two seasons the male lambs may be sold, and also the late ewe lambs and old sheep. With a flock of ewes consisting in blood of one-fourth native, one-fourth merino and one-fourth Shropshire there will have been obtalned, by such a course of breeding, the hardinees of the native, which is always desirable where the pas- tures are not the best, as well as the fin- er wool and early maturity of the mer- inos, combined with the gnod market qualities and size of the Shropshire. Another reason for recommending the Shropshire is that the ewes of that breod roduce 8 greater proportion of twins. ith ewes so bred they will always pro- duce early lambs, if careful selection is made of the earliest for breeding pur- poses; and all that is required for procuring lambs that ~ will bring the best prices is to use rams of the Oxford-Down, Cotswold or any other large breed. Ewes from tais third cross should not be kept for breeding urposes. If the females of twins be Eept every year the number of twins will be gradually increased. During this ex- periment the size, quality and appear- ance of the carcass will be improved, the weight of fleeco increased and the lambs come in earlier, In order to insure such results, however, grain must be allowed daily. K As young lambs range In price from §5 to $10, according to the period at which they reach the market, it needs no inducement to those who are aware of the fact to endeavor to being them in early, If good judgment is exercised in the management of the flock the lambs will produce a larger profit than wool or mutton, i — LA me= \g BEST TONIC.

A GROWING CITY The remarkable growth of Omaha during the last fow years is a matter of great astonishment to those who pay an occasional visit to this growing city. 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 than doubled in the last five years. All thie isa great surprise to visitors and is the admiration of our citizens, This rapid growth, the bueiness 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 Street panic last May, with the subsequent cry of hard times, there has been less demaud from specula- tors, but a fair demand from investors seeking homes. This latter class are taking advantage of low prices In build- ing material and are securing their homes at much less cost then will be possible year hence. Speculators, too can buy real esta’ > cheaper now and ought t> take advan of present prices for futur profi [ ext foew years promises greater pments in Omaha than the past years, which have been as good as + could reasonably desire.
