In conversation with Hon. Patrick Egan that gentleman stated to the BEE that the prospects were very flattering tor their convention and that undoubtedly there would be an attendance of several hun dred from all parts of the state. The ¢ for the convention states that credentials of delegates and delegations can be handed in up to the evening oi the meet- and maLy will report b that time. 1t is yet nearly a week before the con vention will be held, but reports are com- ing doily to Mr. Egan giving lists of del- egates elected and who be present Thursday. The following towns in the state having branch leagues which have elected delegates have reported al I'lattsmouth, N ntre, Columbus, st Grafton, Sution, Beatrice, Me- Cook, Valentine. The railroads of the state have made for this convention the customary reduction in rates, which will be one and a third fare on all roads, pay- ing full fare going and one-third return ing. One of the attractive features of this utherng will be the celebration on the cvening following the day of the stute convention, the birthday of Robert Emmett. For this event even more elaborate preparations have be than for the convention ifself, local league has secured Funke's opera lionse for the evening. The admission to this anniversury meeting will be free, with tke lowe rt of the house re- served for the ladies, and gentlemen who come attended by ladies.

At the annual meeting of the strect rail- way company J, W. Deweese was elected Prestde 6r the coming year and the board of dircctors number "A. E. Touza- lin, John R. Clark, Frank L. Sheldon, C. J. Ernst and J. W. Deweese. The meet- ing was held with closed doors, but it is known that some importaut extensions are contemplated for the summer that will materially enhance the value of suburban property. It seems to be ac- cpted as a fact that the present South Fourteenth street line \viSl be extended toward the penitentiary; that the R street line will double back from Peck’s grove 20 as to strike the fair grounds and addi- tions adjoining them, reaching back to the R street line at about Nineteentn street. How extensive building will be pushed is yer an undecided question. OPTIONS AND 'MPROVEMENTS, ©P. H. Cooper, the ice king, was offered Saturday an even 157000 for his three res- idence lots that are handsomely and ad- vantageously located one block southenst from the capitol building. Mr. Cooper pmmuxli- refused the offer, for he has oe- cupied these lots as his homestead many ears, both in the dark and the promising sars of the city’s history, and he is 100 much attached to the place to think of giving it up. Some things in this life, he says, can't be bought, even at exorbitant lli;:ures and potwithstanding the big oom. Thomas P. Kennard has the planscom pleted and in hand for the building of a §25,000 residence.

Mr., hummomx bas the plans completed for a $30,000 residence that will be lo- cated in one of the most desirable por- tions of the city at Grand avenue and M street. From those who have seen the plans the information is freely stuted that the house will be when completed numbered among the handsome resi- dences of the capitol eity. A STORM CLOUD RISING.

It scoms that ice for the use of the” yards is put up from the same portion of the creek, and a physician who passed that way along condemned the practice in very emphiatic terms, The protectors of the public health are asked to look into this affair and have the same abated; more and better health regulations are absolutely necessary to be adopted by Lincoln authorities both for the city proper and the suburbs, Had proper care been taken of this matter in the fail and intellgent action put in practice many of the deuths and the fover suffer- ers would not have been koown in this naturally Lealthy city, BOUT THE CITY, P.

The society de- t there is no question that the rancis Ronalds was the inven- tor of the electric telegraph. He pub- lished in 1823 an account of an electric telegraph which he had erected in his own garden. It was not until 1536 that Prof. Wheatstone called attention to a large experiment of the kind by which signals were conveyed mr.,m,—f. several mile Sir Charles Bright, lowever, g edit of bringing it into practical » to Mr. Cooke, afte ward Sir Wm. C'ooke, who saw a tele eruphic experiment in the room of & pro- fessor of philosophy at Heidle- berg in 18 he ex it i pressed him, He saw al onc seful such mode of communic ght be made in the working of r- anals, and devoted bimself to the zation of the idea. In thre 2 had a telegraph end of the year he showed Farade appuratus he had constructed in order to exhibit his sys- tem to the directors of the Liverpool & Manchester railway. In 1587 he became cquainted with Wheatstone, and the two inventors took out a joint patent in June. So it in the very month of the queen’s ession to the throne that the electric telegraph emerged from the stage of philosophic experiment and be came a business fact \1\ ithin little more than a month a telegraph was 1d on the London & Birmi ay from Euston square to Camdentown On the evening of l}u Sth of July, 1837, s Sir Charles Bright reminds us, Mr. Cooke stationed himself at Camdentown and Prof, Wheatstone at Euston to put apparatus to the test.

Long before 1837 he had put his idea into practical shape, and it was in that year that he exhibi his ap ‘atus to con- gress. Whatever may be said as to the coutroversy between Morse and W heat- stone as to the priority of invention, there is uo_question that Morse’s conce and his experiments were entirely o al, and that the It | chieved wus practical. Several European states uni ted in presenting him with a purse of 000. Sure his successful experi- ments skould entitle him at least to an honorable mention in the historical re- view of an electrie society. It is only fifty years since Morse had such difliculty in Vesumliu copgress that electrigity eould be used for com- munieation; since ne was regarded as a crank. Aundto-day all parts of the world are united Ly wires. It is loss than thirty ;.-:.r; since the first Atlant'c cable was anded, and soon after broke. And to- day there are wore than 107,000 miles of submarine eables- linking the seaports of the world together, involving a capital of $185,000,000.
