Wlile they have no hoodle, an_active campaign will be made by individuals throughout this county, and when the votes are connted in November it will be found that the money appropriated to cary votes in Tennessee has absolutely failed to can ture the honest votes in Nebraska in sup- port of the har-tending temperance advo- cate, who s all things to all men, who lives in affluence and rolls i wealth cured largely by killing bills which he introduced in the Nebraska legislature and other wily means known to the N maha statesman who will never rep sent the First district in congress. PROGRESS OF STATE WORKS The board of public lands and build- \ings, at its mceting on Monday, al- lowed the estimate for the second 500 feet being sunk and known as the salt well. A new plant with new and in- creased machinery taken the place of the old aud the hole will continne to go down until salt, coal! or nothing but China ean be found. Already it is over one thousand feet deep. The insane hos- pital at Norfolk, the new reform school building at Kearney and the fecble- minded building at Beatrice, are all near- ing completion and it is thought will be ready for nceeptance by the state within the next four weeks.” The seeret of state is having the ¢ and representa- i tted and repaired, and with 1 other devices is improving the acoustic propertics of those places which have always b iserable in spite of the copp used.

TEMPTING THE GUARD. Among the compliments of Cass county : lie penitentiary by _ purty named Ap for eighteen months for grand larcény. Rudabeck is Dowden, | Columbus man | pleased wit what might be termed a terror on gen- oral principles and an offender” for s 10 minor matters until he served a term of enlistment in the regular army. When he was taken out to the pen ho was as ugly and obstraperous s usual, and he hadn't been in the bastile two hour until one of the guards had shot at him twice for crossing the dead line. Either the guard aimed lugh purposely or alse he is a wretched marksman, for neither shot took effect and the prisoner was glad to quict down. The list of delegates to the pen from Cass county at its present tery) of court numbers seven, most of om go up for short sentenees—ear “Obbing, grand laveeny, and like offences. A ROYAL BANQU The Knugnts of Pythias of the city of Lincoln guve a grand street parade on Monday evening, followed later in the evoning by an elegant banquet at Poebler's that was enjoyable in_eyery way. The occasion wis the institution of “ Apollo diyision uniform rank, the third division of uniformed knights in the city. In the street parade over a hundred knights in uniform paraded through the principal streets of the ity. The other divisious giving many handsome evolutions on the fine of mareh, and. tho streots alon the way were crowded with spectators. After the new division had been instituted at Pythian hall, the banguet was opened, and one hundred and fifty were seated at the tabls Sir Knight. R. O'Neill was toast master, and speeches were made by Commander Downs, of Marahall division, by General Smith, of Lily division Omaha, by Supreme Revresentative W, E. Cope- land, of Omaha, and others. HE CAME TO BUY GOODS, Yesterday a party from Columbus came down to Lincoln to buy goods. Yester- day evening he was in police court, but the officials failed to get his correct name, He was tined one dollar and costs, and thereby hangs un experience if not s history. It secms that through the day he was at Trickey's jewelry store and IR T. Clark’s drug “store, looking at goods with & view of muking purchases, and ho was seen to be mccom- vanied ll? A man ot yoars who was eit aG. A man or dressed that way. The next of the Columbus man that wis seen was when the officers found him lying among the B. & M. tracks wholly uncon- sclous from eituer an abundance of THE OMAHA DAILY whisky or drags. The place where was found was in close proximity to some of the worse dives in the eity and the ' found that he had lost £170.

He had just California where he had lived so long and had enjoyed the rare hospitality of the big hearted men of the coast, It was very reeable to hear him talk of Cali fornin and the Califo 1<, He had come back through British Columbia and been honored wherever he had gone by the loyal subjects of the good Queen Vie toria. He jokingly said he had not known what o great ho until he had gone hroad. Spe trains, escorts and receptions had met him at every point, ard no people could have done more to show their respect for him than did the Columbians, He described the country minutely from the Pacitic ocean to the kes of the north, and those who know Sherman will under- stand how well he could do it It was very pleasant to hear Unele Billy talk and to sce how lively and happy the old general was. What a wonderful man Sherman has been, and how unlike all respects he is to his great friend, the dead commander, General Grant Yot between these two men there isted the warmest friendship, and Grant never secmed to tive of praising Sherman for the hero of the march to the sen, Sherman can hardly yet speak of Grant without tears in_his yoice and often in his eyes. How long it will be before Sherman follows his great friend ovor the divide no one can tell, but not long I suppose, and all too soon for his old sol- diers and the American people, who love this old man as they have joved few men who have lived among them in the last fifty years. TERRY. Terry I bad not seen since 1876 when we were on the ill-fated campaign against Sitting Bull, in which Custer and his nd lost their lives. He is much changed and has a great dey I suppose those who are about him_every day do not notice the change, but I could see it and was really pained’ to observe how old he is growi T wili retire November 10, 1891, and has therefore y a little over fiv born November 10, 1827, and w retired by law at sixty-four y Without " the antiges education General Torry is perhaps present the most accomplished gener inour army. Since the death of Han- cock, if soldier, 1 be called the Ssuperb” it must be Terry. The hero of Fort Fisher 1s so well known to all our people he ne no deseription, but it is pleasant to think of this courtly soldier and goentlem: nd to wish him a long v lif we known General Terry well and I can say Ivisedly that with“all his great public reputation few know of the goodness and kindness of his heart. He i8 not only a great soldier and a great n, but one of the best men that ever lived. His retirement will come all too soon for us who live in the army under him and love him. We can only wish that after he retires he will be as happy, as he will be followed by the love and respect of his soldiers and oflicers AlLwill pray that the good God may bounteously lengthen out his life for many to bless his country and his friend lively asa r than his the Antic meeti his oked you he wis o wily T'en ations old sol been to man was ial SCHOF What General Schoticld was doing 1n Chieago, 1 do not know, and he did not say. He was looking well but fleshier than when I saw him three years ago. Goneral Schofield is a remarkable and perhaps has more al abi than any man in the United States arm; He has never yet boen placed in any position however difficult that he did not mannge it 5o easily us to' astonish even his mostintimate friends. When Presi- dent Jomson wished to make him se ary of war, Genearl Grant became alarmed for the reputation of his y and wrote him to decline the oflice in advance, but Schofield did not decline it. He came to Washington, nssumed the difficult position und. ohnson and made so good a secretar r that not only the grouty president, but the whole country heartily approved of lnm., Grant was astonished and although he had o high opinion of Schofield’s ability before he ever of him as one of the ablest men in the country. I think the administrative abil; f General Schofield hardly kno or appreciated by the people of the y. He would anken good p and it is out of just such timber good and safe presidents are made. He will re- tire f ive service September 29, and should he live until then will nior maj and the p dan Tetiring March 6, 1t chotield. The retirements of the great generals of the army now on the active list will take place as follows: BRIGADIER GENERALS BRETIREMENTS. Brigadior” General Geo.

Ruge 12, 1507, By seniority General Nelson A. Miles will come into command of the army in less than nine years, and succeed Gen- al Schofield, unless Ruger or some igadier general junior to him is jumped over him 1o a major generalship. If not jumped, Miles s army from September 20, 1805, to August 8, 1008—eight years. ARMY RE’ NTS. Speaking of army retirements, I won- der some enterprising young fellow does not get out a pamphlet giving the dates of retiroment of officers.” It would sell well, as there over two thousand officers, and at least one-half of them would take a copy. Then there are their friends and eitizens interested in such matters, at least 1,000 more, and 2,000 copies is a very good sale for @ pamphlet, I thought 1 would do this rayseif, and got a ot of data together, but 1 find I am gr-um,:; too old to take an interest in any- thing, even Nebraska politics.
