<4 n PN THAYER APPOINTS TIIS STAFF | The Governor Names the Officers of the 8cocond Nebraska Rogiment. THE HOOKER COUNTY BILL DEAD The Btate Pharmacy Board Getting Ready to Enforce the New Law ~A Dangerous Blaze— Capital News, [FROM THE BEE'S LINCOLN BUREAU.] Governor Thayer yesterday made the following appointments: Under the new law providing for the organization of the Becond regiment of National Guards, and which with the First regiment will constitute a brigade, Colonel L. W. Colby, of Beatrice, has been appointed brigadier general commanding. Under the same law the following officers have been appointed on the staff of the com- manderan-chief: A, V. Cole, of Adams county, adjutant general, with the rank of brigadicr general ; E. M. Correll, of Thayer county, quartermaster general and commissary, with the rank of colonel; Franklin Sweet, of Merrick county, inspector general, with the rank of lieutenant colonel; John C. Watson, of Utoe county, judge advocate general, with the rank of major; W. M, Stoae, of Saunders county. surgeon general. Ards-de-camp, with the rank of colonel: 8. J. Shirley, of Cheyenne county; W. H. McCann, of 8heridan county; E. 8. Dud- ley, lieutenant Second United States ar- tillery. James Britton, of Wayne county. The appointiment of Lieutenant Dudley s made as a slight recognition of the ef- ficient assistance rendered by himn pre- paring the new military bill, and in pro- curing its passage through the legisla- ture. He will also be of valuable aid in organizing the Second regiment of Na- tional guards. THE FATE OF HHOOKER COUNTY. It has been discovered that the bill ereating the new county of Hooker and delining its metes and bounds has never nched the governor, but to the con- s, since the time of its passage, ining in obscurity in the enroll- room and is now dead be- yond resurrection, It is not probable that there was any great and erying de- mand for the county of Hooker, but the fact illustrates further the amount of elessness and gross negligence that ervaded the ranks of those entrusted ith the importunt work at the closing days of the session.

The state bomd of pharmacy has held {ts first session in this city and organized. W. C. Lane, of Lincoln, 18 president, and Henry Boyden, of Grand Lsland, the sec- rotary. ‘I'ne board of public lands and build- ings were in session {encrduy afternoon arranging, among other matters, for the sale of the state lots in Lincoln in ac- cordance with the act of the logislature, There are a large number of these lots, some of which are valuable and others Lie at the bottom of Salt ereek. W. W. Abbey, of Richardson county, the new member of the live stock sani- itary commission, was at the state house yesterday filing his bond and oath of of- tice. There ave a great many delinquencies in school land sales in the state and the commissioner of lands and buildings will the coming week send out some 6,000 no- tices to delinquents to pay up or have their rights forfeited. The auditor finds that a number of in- urance companies are attempting to rasact business in the state without first complying with the law. The auditor catalogues the following companies his business: Insurance company of ioux Falls, Dak,, the Chesapeake of the District of Columbia, Fire and Marine of Piorre, Dak., the Louisiana of New Or- leans, the Indiana of Indianapolis, the Mouut Holly of Mount Hoily, N. J., and the Council Bluffs of Council Blufts, Ia, OUT OF BONDAGE, Yesterday Ben Cobb walked the streets of Lincoln a free man again, after a resi- dence of something overtwo years in the state penitentiary. The case of Ben Cobb is so well known that, as a matter of news, only slight reference need be made it. Cobb was an attorney and at one time police judge of thiscity. He moved in the hgher circles of society, had host of friends and hved an expensi life. When the crash came he was in- dicted for embezzlement, convicted ana sent to the pen, from which he has just veturned. What business he may now on; in, or whether he will remain in Lincoln, 18 not stated. A DANGEROUS BLAZE. About 2 p. m. yesterday, in the midst of .I:En wind, engines in the B. & M. ya whistled a” fire alarm and after some delay the alarm reacned the engine g:&ul ifliculty was then had in lo- ng the flames, but the department furned out and found the establishment of tho Wisconsin Furniture and Coflin company in the western part of the city n fire, ‘The nearest hydrant was six locks away, but a coupling was quickly ado and fire subdued with slight (?I the building. The establishment the Wisconsin Furniture and Coffin mammoth company 18 A fourstory frame building that was filled, all four floors, with the com- pany’s heavy stock for their wholesale trade, The destruction of the budding would have been a heavy loss both to the compuny and the city, and had it been a block further away from a hydrant the department could not have saved it. The fire further illustrates the absolute neces- sity that exists 1n the city for the exten- sion of the water service for fire protec- tion, and a movement in this line should engross the attention of the new adminis- tion without delay. THE CITY GOVERNMENT, At the last meeting of the city council important steps were taken upon the pav- ing question for the summer and an election was agreed upon to be held May which time the cll)‘ will yote upon the issuing of $100,000 paving bonds, bear- ing interest at 5 per cent, and to date from July 1 of the present year. The question of paving districts was then taken n;l) and the following limits de- fined: Paving district No. 1 includes that part of O street from the west side of Seventh to the cast side of Ninth, N street from Seventh to Ninth, P street the same distance, and Q and R street the same and S strdet one block from Eighth to Ninth. The second dis- trict includes N, O and P streets from Ninth to Fourteenth, also Eleventh strect from Q toJ, also from Ninth to Eleventh on Q. This territory will cover only a ortion of the business part of the city, but it will be on the more important thoroughfares and make a good com- mencement. Tho ordinance fixing the salaries of oity ofticials in accordance with the new rter, was also passed, and an ordinan larted on its way in- creasing the saloon license from §1,000 to $1,500. IN DISTRICT COURT. The mill dam case of C.E. Herdman aguinst the Nebraska Stock Yards com- pany, has continued the attraction in district court the past fc and has not vet reached its termination, The de- fendants. the stock yard company, claim the right to dam Oiak creek below the Herdman mill, and in so doing the watet is backed on to the wheel of the mill, as the Herdmans set forth, some four feet and taking away twenty-horse power from the mill and its capacity for work, making the mill atseif 1noper: The stock yards company put in th dam that is cuusing the trouble, on their grounds, with the object i of secur- ing theit ice supply for packing purposes. The case is of a great deal of Interest to both parties in the trial, and the attorneys }m-,‘ cvidently trying it for all there is n it « The present term of the Lancaster dis- trict court will terminate to-day, Satur- day, and the district court for Cass will open Monday next at Plattsmouth. The present term in this county has been wholly uneventful. — “What 1s home without a mother?” Why it is about ¢as comfortiess ns a mantlepiece in winter time without a bottle of Dr. Bull’s Cough Syrup.

Los Angeles Tribune: Bill Williams is a driver in the employ of the California Southern and Atlantic and Pacitic Truck company. He s an honest, sober man, and bears a truthful reputation. B. A. Guthrie until lately has been em- ployed by the same company, and also bears a reputation for veracity and sobriety, Why these recommendations? Do these young men want positions? These questions may be put by readers of to- day's Tribune: The answer is that the above statements are made in prepara- tion of what is to follow. On Sunday Williams and Guthrie went to Sunta Monica for a little recrcation, After exhausting the resources of that attractive resort, they wandered along the cliffs toward the canyon, and finding a comfortable spot, laid down on the sward, and amused themselves by view- ing tho lanascape and waterscape with a powerful pair of field glasses. “‘Is that a log tloating out there?” smd Guthrie to Williams, handing him the glnsses and indicating the spot where he was to look, out toward China. Williams examined the object, and was about to hand the giasses back when he saw the supposed log rear its foremost end about five feet up 1n the air and wiggle itself about. It then suddenly disappeared. Soon it bobbed up serenely, several hun- nred feet nearer the shore, and the as- tonished young men saw that it was some monster. It advanced toward the shore rapidly, raiging o burrel like head end peerin, about cautiously. Williams got excited and handed the glass back to Guthrie, at the same time drawing a 44-calibre Colt’s rovolver that he had with him. W hen the nerpenwnt within about 150 yards of the beach Williams fired at it and then wished he hadn't, for it commenced to make a hideous, squalling noise, slashing the water mto foam with its_filty feet o body. Rearing its tremendous head many feet in the air, 1t would squall ‘‘something like a man, onlg in a horrible way," said Williams to the Tribune reporter re cently. ‘‘Its ayes were fiery, and its im- mense mout! would ~ open sand shut as if it wonld like to get hold of the man who fired that shot.” ‘‘How did it look?” “‘Well, it was about fifty feor long, its body was round and looked rough, as if it had largescales. The head, which was about the size of a barrel, appeared to be fringed with long hair."” “Did you notice any fins?"’ “No. [could not distinguish any. It swam along with perfect ease, though. Sometimes its head would be on_the sur- face of the water, and then it would rise n‘]) about five feet and look all around.” “Were you frightened?®'’ ‘‘No, not particuiarly. 1 knew it could not get up on the el . “Why aid you not get a boat and chase Lo “Excuse me! I was very well satisfied to be where I was. Ihad no desire to get hold of it.” Mr. Williams told his story in a straightforward, truthful manner. He said he hardly expected people.to beliove it, and he did not care if they did not. He had seen what he related,” and it was the truth, ———— In advanco of the sickly season render yourself impregnable; a malarial atmos- here or sudden change of temperature s fraught with danger; use Dr. J.
