CIRCLING ‘THE CAPITAL CITY, Preliminary Steps Taken For Oonstructing the Lincoln Belt Line. WHAT OUR STATESMEN DO. Ulerks of Both Branches of the Logis- lature Preparing Their Reports ~The Teachers' Institute —Supreme Court, [FROM THE BEE'S LINCOLN BUREAT.] i House, of Omaha, arrived here ay in charge of a corps of en- s, the intent of whom was the sur- ot the belt hime which s intended cle this city. ‘The first work of the survey will be towards West Lincoln, and just as soon as this is completed stk will be extended much farthe “The idea of a belt line is having an effect al to that produced s in Omaha, when a project of this kind was unde N, especially when it was put under w Like that undertaking, #1350, this it is thonght is fraught with importance which cannot now be di- vined, ral years ago HTASTE TO THE PRINTER. Mr. Cook, assistant ch clerk of the 1ate house of representatives, says that he expeets to have his record of the proceed- ings of that body ready in aboul thirty days. He is of the opinion that the printer ought to be able to have the same in print in about the sume time, Mr. Seely, chief clerk of the senate, thinks he will be able to surren dor his copy to the typo even in a shorter #pace, though to do so will require the employment of an extra force of assist- ants. If the intent of these gentle- men should b ried out and the board of public printing sustain it by requiring immodiate attention on the part of the printer to whom the work shall be et it will result in expediting the undertaking in a most satisfactor y manner. It would contrast most unfavorably with that of last session when eight months elapsed before the records reached the printer, and twelve months more were consumed before the volume appe The book then contained over 1,600 pages. This year it will scarcely contain less than B,000. VOUCHERS FOR E. SE, The board of public land and buildings met yesterday and held a pretty lengthy gession, but transacted no business be- youd passing upon vouchers amounting 10 $20,000, the expense of running a num- ber of the state institutions for the month of March. This evening the board will Told another meeting, at which it 1s thought action upon more important matters will be taken. BTOCK COMMISSION. Under the revised law regarding the stock sanitury commission, which author- §zes the governor to appoint four agents tohave charge of the sanitary condition of animals, his excellency has_employed for the present, James C. Birney, of Crote, George W. Barnhart, of um- bus, and W, W, Abbey, of Falls City, in place of D. D, Johuson, of the old com- mission, resigned. SICK GENIUSES. The present senson seems o have been particularly severe upon the newspaper raterni To sny nothing of severaf of the mewmbers of the different staffs who have kept within doors at different times during the winter, there are now three of the capital city scribes under the weather. These are Messrs. Calhoun of he Democrat who will be confined to his house for a week; Samuel Cox, corre- svondent of the Herald, who was denied the pleasure of anathematizing the clos- iug hours of the legislature, and Mr, Bushnell, the capital representative of he BEE, wno is now at length recover- ng from a severe attack of fever. It is needless to say that during the illness of these gentlemen the journalism of this cityhas missed a number of its redeeming features. A COUNTER. Auditor Babcock is rearranging his office by placing inside the door n_coun- ger, resembling those of a bank. Hereto- fore the desks of both Deputy Benton and the other employes were accessible to pvery person who entered the office. As & consequence the risk was a dangerous ne. ’l'?\e new arrangement will have ahe effect of keeping outsiders from ‘within reach of vouchers and other docu- anents which they might appropriate with advantage to themselves, OPERA, Julius Meyer, of Omaha, was in town esterdny making arrangements for the xoursion of Lincolnites to Omaha on londay and Tuesday next to attend the reat operatic festival. This enterprise ns aroused unwonted enthusinsm on the urt of the leading amusement patrons of this city, with the result that already over ono hundred people have signitied their intent of being vresent. It is ex- pected that before Saturday night more han double this number will have made nrrangements toattend. The programme nnounced for Monday night is ““Kaust.” {Tuesday matinee, “‘Lackme,” and Tues- ay night_‘‘Lohengrin.” '"The spccial arain will leave this city at mbout 5 o'clock in the afternoon of ench of those days, and each Omaha 1n time for the performance, re- turning thence at about 12 o'clock mid- might and reaching here before 2 o'clock {u the morning.

TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS, Fortune Smiles Upon John W. D, Stokes of Detroit. . John W. D. Stokes in January sent §2 to ti New Orleans National Bank for the pur- chase of a ticket in the monthly drawing of the Louisiana State Lottery, The money was delayed in reaching the bank, and was invested in the February drawing, whieh came off on the Sth inst. Stokes received his ticket, a fifth of No. 45151, and when he learned that it calied for part of the 850,000 prize he promptly re- signed his position as dealer in a prominent Detroit gambling louse.

Y., writes as follows of the remarkable cure of a peculiar pain in her back: Four years ago 1 was attacked with a severe pain in the spine, close to the small of my back. It was especially painful going up or down stawrs. Atter using over ten rem s and consulting nhalf a dozen physicians without any benefit, my husband applied one ALL- cock’s PORoOUS PLASTER directly over the seat of pain. [ kept it on a week and 1fancied [ was a little better, but was not quite sure. I then put on a fresh one. At the end of a wegk my husband noticed that the plaster was puffed up in the middle. Upon taking the Plaster off 8 hole about the size of a quill was found which discharged yellow matter very freely. Another Plaster was put ou with a good sized hole in the center of it, to enable the matter to escape. The Plas ter appeared to draw with great po and the discharge increased every twen- ty-four hours a little. At last a’ pint of matter was discharged from the wound before I got entirely well, which was ex- actly five weeks from the time I put the first plaster on. 1 used altogether eleven plasters, and thanks to them I have not since Lad an ache or pain in my back. bt = 1,4 d o Captain John A.
