UNIVERSITY CLOSING WEEK. Many Visitors in the Oapital Oity to Witness the Exercises. EDGAR DEMANDS A DEPOT. The Passenger Btation at that Place Declared a Disgrace to the Town —Flattering Crop Prospeots ~=Lincoln News. |FROM THE DEE'S LINCOLN BUREAU.| The closing week of the State univers- ity is attracting a great many Nebras- kans to the city who are interested in both the students and the school. The society exhibitions were all unusually well patronized, and the programmes ex- cite much favorable comment. Sunday evening the baccalaureate address was the programme at the opera house, Bishop Worthington, of Omaha, having been selected for this address the present year. The final exorcises of commence- ment week occur on Wednesday morn- ing, at the opera house, when the gradu- ating exercises take place, and in the evening of the same day the chancellor's levee will be held at the senate chamber. Baturday afternoon the chancellor en- tertained the graduating class at his tiome, the members of the faculty and members of the board of regents, who are in the city, being also guests of the occasion. The class speak in the warm- est terms of the enjoyment aflorded them by this reception. The Philodicean so- ciety held its exhibition at the opera bouse Saturday evening, a large and se- fect audience being in attendance des- pite the inclement weather. The Union #ociety exhibition this evening completes the work of the societies, The alumni of the university holds its annual banquet at the Windsor hotel Tuesday evening. PETITION FOR ORG TION. The governor 18 In receipt of a petition, numerously signed by citizens living in the limits defined as Blackbird county, asking that temporary county organiza- tion %c made by the act of the governor appointing special oflicers and calling n county election. The county seat is asked to be designated at Pender. Blackbird county, at it is known on the map, was set apart years ago, but owing to its pop- lation being almost wholly of reserva- Eion Indians 1t has never been orgal d, ut the part outside of the reservation has been attached to Dakota county for tudicnl and revenue purposes. A por- 10n of the land in the limits of the boun- @aries of Blackbird county was somo time since openad to settlers and there nre some four or fiva hundred of these pottlers who are interested in & new county organization, There are also some four hundred Omaha Indians who have been cultivating the arts of wpeace and who are agriculturalists, each owning his own land that has been as- pigned by the government. These In- dians can become American citizens and take part as well in a county government. The boundanes of this county, it will be emembered, were changed by the legis- ature, but the bill making the change ‘was vetoed by the governor. ‘WORK FOR THE COMMISSION, A citizen of Edgar, Clay county, tells the BEE that after repeated and urgent pleas, ooverln{; months of time, that town till has & railway depot on the St. Joe ‘Western road that 18 a disgrace to the road and enough to make the town ashamed of itself whenever strangers wvisit them. The road is totally deaf to pleas or importunities and if the railroad commission have any power or any force to exercise, the citizens of Edgar think that there is no more urgent necessity for their action than in seeing that a place qual ut least to a box car be provided by fns railroad for the accommodation of &he town. The BEE is informed that a communication calling attention to the meeds of a depot has been lost 1n the Tailway commission office and that it is ¢ime it had its day of resurrection. Another complaint is made by a travel- ‘ng man, who asks if something cannot e done to compel the telegraph com- any to accommodate patrons at Hast- ngs. In that city the telegraph office: are at the depots on the outskirts of the ity and it 18 the oxperience of the gentle- {nnn complaining that after tramping to he office the service isso poorthat a message is often lost and never heard from. What is wanted there is a city bilice, managoed in a business way. FLATTERING PROSPECTS. From gentlemen residents of Lincoln who are called to different parts of the ‘tltn almost daily the BEE learns that he crop prospects in Nebraska are of the most flattering character. Barley alone cems to be badly used by the chintz ugs, but corn has uot for years pre- sonted such a fine appearance in the early ays of June as at present. The rains of he past week have been general all over he central and eastern part of the state and have caused general ro]oicini ameng farmers. Woestern Nebraska has had amore than the usual rain fall and the ptate entire is emjoying brilliant orop prospects.

The Discoveries of Captain Van Gele Along the Great Mobangi River. Last full the Congo state sent Captain Van Gele, one of gmnley's favorite offi- cers, in the steamer Henry Reed to make furlf\er further explorations upon the Mobangi river, the great northern afflu- ent of the Congo, whose importance Mr. Grenfell was the first to dis- cover. Van Gele did not ascend the river quite as far as Grenfell, being revented by rapids through which Gren- ell had been able to push his steamer at low water when the current was slower. He, however, took time to ex- plore, while Grenfell’s journey was noth- ing more than a hurried reconnoissance. Van Gele made some very interesting discoveries. He found, for instance, three little tributaries, up which he pushed his steamer for a total distance of 207 miles. It1s only three yoars since Stanley estimated that the Mobangi itself added only about 850 miles to the naviga- ble waters of the Congo basin. Now the Rroblem is, whether the Mobangi or the assai deserves distinction asithe Congo’s greatest tribvtary. On the Nghiri affluent of the river and also on the Mobangi, about 300 miles from its mouth, Van Gele found the most denscly populated districts ho had seen in Africa. The left bank of the great river was an uninterrupted succession of villages for about seventy miles. Those who imagine that tho depths of Africa are an almost voiceless solitnde should read Van Gele’s brief account of the ani- mation and bustle he witnessed all along this populous river. ‘The scene on the river in the morning, he says, is one of extraordinary anima- tion. He often met as many as 300 ca- noes swiftly ploughing through the water. The canoes were chiefl, filled with women and children. The women were leaving the vill to 0 to the fields and begin the agricultaral abors of the day. Other parties in the canoes were setting out for the fish nets to gather in the finny harvest that ha collected since the previous day. The river swarms with fish, the land yields rich returns of all tropical produce, and thousands of natives along the river do not know what famine means. The have, besides, food resources upon which most of the world cannot count, as these Enluves are among the greatest of canni- als. Quite a number of men accompanying the women to the fields, but not to take part in tilling the soil. They let the women monopolize the rude iron hoes, while the men stand around with wea- pons in their hands to prutect the the toilers. Without protection there is al- ways danger that the women will be surprised and dragged off by hostile tribes. All these river tribes send hostile ex- peditions against one another for the pur- Bnn of procuring victims for their cani- le foasts, Capt. Van Gele says that all the enemies they kill in battle’are eaten, and that the same fate -soon overcomes the prisoners they carry home with them. Before the exploration of the Congo Valley the beliet was widespread that ~ canablism , had reatly de- creased. and “that there = were compnrntivclY fow people who were atill addicted to the horrid practice. 1n all his travels leinfiutono never saw a cannibal tribe with the possible excep- tion of the Mauyema, But the opening up of the Congo basin has revealed the fact that the world never knew before where cannibalism was most prevalent, ‘There are undoubtedly hundreds of thou- sands of people in that region awmon whom cannibalism is a confirmed an cherished habit. Captain Van Gele says that nowhere in Africa has he soen such fisheries of eq‘u_ml extent except at Stanley Falls, he states marking the positions of the nets cover many acres. All these tribes are tall and powerful, and in form they are splendid specimens of physical beauty. — e A COLORADO JUDGE O LOVE Opinion of Judge Rittenhouse, of Denver, In a Remarkable Oase. MITCHELL AND POLLY BOND. How a Wronged Husband Rescued Property Which He Had Once Given to his Faithless Wife —An Interesting Romance. There was rendered by Judge Ritten- house in the district court recently, says T'he Denver Tribune, the most extraor- dinary opinion, it is sad, that has ever been rendered in the courts of England or America, although Judge Rittenhouse claims that he rendered such a one some- thing like a year ago in a similar case in Weld county. Evidently there is a streak ot originality running through Judge Rittenhouse’s mental composition. He doesn't seo things in the light that men de ordinarily, and this little eccen- tricity of his has found its way mto the opinion he deliverad the other day in the Meldrumease. The suit of Andrew Meldrum vs Mary Meldrum was brought for the reconvey- ance of property which Meldrum had given to his wife hefore they were di- vorced, and there are those who say that Judge Rittenhouse took Mary Meldrum’s Capitol hill proverty away from her simply because he was convinced that she had married her husband for money, without having possessed one epark of that affection supposed to be essential to all happy marriages. By which 1t will be scen that Judge Rittenhouse's old- fashioned notions have at least ac- complished the ends of poetic justice. The opinion is virtually an essay on love, and one which is not without its psycho- logical bearings. It is, too, an elabor- ately thought-out deduction from a num- ber of eauses which go before. Jndge Rittenhouse says plainly that it is evident the woman has been guilty ot no crime, and that to have married a man without love, but thinking to be to him an honest helpmeet, doing her duty at all times, cannot be considered as a (morally) heinous crime. However, Le sees fit to take from Mary Meldrum her Capitol hill property, by which it is in- ferred that his honor believes the young woman deserves to be punished for hav- infimnde a merconary marringe. ary Meldrum was formerly Mary, or “Polly,” Bond, as she was called, a bright, intelligent girl, who resided on her father's (Joseph Bond's) ranch at Delta. When Mary was only fifteen years old her parents, who were English people, recetved and entertained at the ranch Charlle Mitchell, the famous Enihsn prize fighter, who seemed to take such a fancy to Mb? as 8 man often takes to a child, and addressed her as “my Nttle girl.” When Mitchell left England he asked Mr. Bond if Mary might correspond with him. Mr. Bond who likedMitchell very much, assented to this, and Mitchell and “l‘ol{{.“ as he called her, engaged in a friendly corre- spondence for some weeks, when ‘‘Polly” took girlish offense at something he had written and the correspondence was ab- ru'Btlv brought to an end. hen came Andrew Meldrum, & miner from the San_Juan, and made violent love to little Polly, who, it is said, prom- ised to become his wife at the earnest so- licitation of her parents. When Mel- drum was married he had justsold his in- terest In the Yankee Girl mine for a handsome sum, and grnspecu were good for his disposing of his stock in the Gus- ton at even a better figure. So he took Polly east, promised her a diamond neck- lace which she took a fanoy toin Pitts- burg, and otherwise conducted himself in a way indicitive of a man who was ()osscased by the rosy little god Cupid. When the “twain returned to Colorado Meldrum desired Polly to buy herself a handsome house somewhere, as most of his time was spent at the mines, and he desired his wife to have luxurious sur- roundings. Suddenly Polly got an idea of locating in California. She went there, and acci- dentally met Charlie Mitchel in that state. She also met Nettie Goldsmith, formerly of Leadville, and the two planned a girl- ish escapade by which Polly put aside her weddi rving and masqueraded to Mitchell as **Polly Bond.” Later Polly decided that she did not want to live in California, and when she came home to Delta she confessed to Meldrum the joke she had played upon Mitchell, begging his pardon for the same. From that time on Meldrum, it is said, grew absurdly jealous, and never lost an opoortunity of taunting Polly with her regard for Mitchell. This finally so ex- asperated his wife that she apptied for a divorce, Meldrum agreed upon such a separation, and in that conversation Mary claims that she a; 10 reconve, to him the Delta property, which he h: fi',"n her soon after their marriage. In the meantime she went away and Mel drum got the divorce himself,” Mrs. Mel- drum claims that she fully intended car- rying out her part of the contract, but that in her absence Meldrum filed & cross-bill for the reconveyance of this Eroperty. 8he would bave preforred to eep the Capitol hill Y"“P‘“‘W and to have reconveyed to him the ranch at Delta. Meldrum claims that Polly has been too intimate with Mitchell before she got her divorce, and that for that reason he de- sired to get the property back from her, claiming that she had” deceived him to obtain it, Polly claims that her friendship for Matchell was always of the most ordi- nary kind, and that when she saw him again on her return from Califorma it was at the Tabor opera house, where Meldrum had taken her to see 8 minstrel troupe with whom Mitchell was posing as a dying gladiator and similar charac- ters. The opinion of the court is as follows: “These parties, the plaintiff and defen- dant, were married on Dec. 8, I believe 1884, after the usual courtship, and on Oct. 8, 1835, that being the birthday of the defendant, this nrst conveyance in controversy was made, and a few months thereafter the second conveyance, that being I think the 16th day of February, 1886, and this suit is brought to set aside both these conveyances upon \hofrouml of their being obtained D{ fraud of the defendant on the plaintiff, they being conveyances without what is known in law a8 & reliable consideration, buta ‘good’ consideration if no traud exists. “The court is satisficd from the evi- dence that at the time of his marriage, and before and afterward, the plaintiil was nloegly in love witn the defendant to that nt in which men is infstuation almost; and the court is further satisfied that at the time, and before and after- ward the defendant did_not at any time love the plaintiff, and that in one sense of the word the marriage on T part was for & mercenary motive—that is, in one sense she married him for his money. “Where a woman thus marries a man for his money—and I mean by that, he being rich, wealthy, prosperous, will fur- nish her a good home, and she will play upon him to have him expend money for her in their bome, and surround her with l“u:fl; nd comfort, although she has no affection for him, but if she intends to re- main his wife and to spend her life with him, the court can not say that thatis fraud, because it is apparent to the court that many of the mnrrl.rn in this nfo and time are just like that. So, if peoble, although ti have that. mercenary idea, remain pure, and their conduct is unex- ceptionable, no court of equity will set aside a conveyance ffom the husband to the wife because the wife does not love the husband, or because the husband does not love the wife. “Courts of equity can not measure this mysterious thing called love and affee tion—can’t determiné where the standard is that will support or defeat a convey- unce. It is beyond the domains of the courts of law or equity. So that =0 lon as this defendant intended and purposec to continue Lo be the wife of the plaintift and to live with him &t his house, and to make her conduet to him and the world that of a respectable wife, the court can find no fault with her, although it be- ieves there was an entire absence of af- ion and love on her part. It appears to the court that she mar- ried him without love, believing that he was wealthy and would furnish her with a good home, surround her with comfort an- luxury, and that her purpose was to make the zt‘flt of it, although it was bar- ren to her heart, and that condition and frame of mind continued up to and at the time of this first conveyance, made on the 3d day of October, 1884, as a birth- aay present, was a voluntary deed of gift by this man 1n consideration of love and affection, or rather moved by love and affection toward his wife, and e present being macde at her solicitation. “That she may solicit such things I think there can be no controversy. At her solicitation and moved by his” affec- tion and loye for her, he made her this voluntary deed of gift for the ranch in Delta. And the court cannot say that here was any fraud used to obtain that ift. “The evidence satisfies the court that after this time this h‘clil\fz which is de: scribed by the defendent herself as love and affection, but which the court ea not say was love and {affection, but ounly toleration—simvly toleration of the pres- ence of this man in view of the fact that he was her husband, and that this feel- ing had been undergoing, perhaps prior to this time, somewhat of a change, the feeling of toleration growing into grad- ual indifference to him and his interests, and this growing in degrees until 1t passed the line of indifference and be- came dislike, and ripened from that into antipathy and disgust and despair; and that she reached a point where hate be- came that dominant passion—hate towards him, utter dishke, utter disgust; and that then she conceived the design that she would obtain from him all that was possible and then desert and aban- don him. “The court believes that that design was formed and conceived after the first conveyance of property, that it was the natural and legitimate and philosophical outgrowth of this frame of mind, which the defendant herseif admits, that ripened into a purpose and design to obtain fro - him further property and then leave him and cease to live with him, “The mere matter of whether she pur- posed to get a divorce or not does not cut much figure. The gist of this is: Did she intend to live with him as his wife, or to abandon him, either with or without a diyorce, it doesn’t matter? The court cannot belleve that this little episode about the oarriage and horse on that February day was the real cause ot her first desire for separation; it is en- tirely too trivial—too flimsy. A woman who had received from her husband roperty to the amount of $17,00 or 18,000 and $10,000 or $11,000 of that within a week or ten ‘days next before this occurrence wonld hardly, for the reason that he refusedto lot her ride on some particular afternoon, conceive so suddenly in her mind the idea of an en- tire separation and divorce. It is utterly impossible in the mind of the court that that was the cause of the quarrel. The design had been formed perhaps at the time or near the time when one witness declares that defendant: ‘expressed a de- sire that plaintiff should fall down the mine or be killed in some way. It ap- pears that about that time, after this first conveyance was made, the thought of when it broke 1more fulty upon her vision of this interminable companionship of this man, so long as they both should live, when it drove her to despair, and, in desperation, whether rightfully or wrongtully, she conceived the design of getting what she could and then forever separating from him. “‘As a mere moral matter the court does not look upon that as anything par- ticularly heinous—that is, this change of heart from toleration to disgust. It1s one of the things that even philosophers cannot trace; and the emotions of love and hate are entirely independent of will. 1t is not any particular act that a person does that makes one love or hate. It is an indefinable something—a force be- tween two individuals that causes these emotions of love and hate.and no human philosophy can trace it. So the mere fact of change doesn’t appear to the court to be particularly dark and heinous; it is only the purpose that is formed as the re- sult of this, and even that may be cxcus- ableon moral grounds, if it i3 not upon legal ones—the purpose, the design, that resulted from this disgust, that euded in despair and in her getting property from her husband to her own use and benefit and then abandoning him aud ceasing to live with him as his wife. A ruse of lov- ing. ‘It appears that during the time inter- vening between the two conveyances she did, by her acts at least, attempt to and succeeded in making the plaintiff velicve that she still loved him. And the court cannot believe for one moment that ths plamtiff, simple minded as he appears, as unsophisticated as the court believes him to be, yet if he had known at the time when he made this last conveyance the real state of feelings existing in’ his wife's mind toward him, have made the con- veyance of February 16, 1836. *“I'he court fails to discover any par- ticularly offensive thing in the alleged relations existing betwaen this woman and Mitohell, Yerhaps there was, but the Brool doesn’t discloso it sufficlently to elieve that it ever amounted to erim- inal intimacy. There was doubtless a fondness between them in the minds of both. Perhaps there may have been loye, but at least it does not appear that they allowed that love to ripen into eriminal intercourse. Her connections with him were doubtless imprudent—doubtless vexatious and distracting to the man who loved her—otherwise imprudent, and in one sense unfaithful to him., With these views the court will be tompelled to can- cel and set aside the second conveyance, made on the sixteenth ‘day of February, 1886, and to leave the first conveyance as valid and binding.” ———— Pestered by the Baseball Craze. Harper’s Monthly: A few years ago baseball was a popular, game, an all-cn- grossing game, in Buffalo. State Engi- neer Horatio Seymour,’ Jr., found 1t so. Upon one of his visits to that city he heard men talking of little else "than baseball “‘on the dock,!" at the hotels and in the counting-rooms.’ :0ld merchants and young clerks watched the vapers and the bulletins for the scores made by the members of the National league,and seemed to take little interest in legitimate business. Feeling no interest whatever in “the American game,” Mr. Seymour was somewhat disgusted with the condi. tion of public sentiment in Buffalo, and 50 expressed himself to a sympathizing friend in the evening. ‘The friend pro. gaseu a visit to the circus for a change, ut Mr. Seymour declined, saying that he was very tired and intended to fiva up his room at the hotel, go 0 the house of an uncle—dn elderly, much-esteemed citizen—find a quiet room and get a good night's rest. Toward midnight there was a violent ringing at the old man's door bell, and investiga- tion revealed that a boy was at the door with a telegram for Mr, Seymour. With no Ifttle anxiety the state engineer, who bad beeu wakened from a sound sleep, tore open the dispatch, hoping that it bad no bad news from home. be- wildered and half enraged he read ‘“‘Providence, 3; Boston 2.

Base hits—"' Heread no more. ‘‘What on earth have I got to do with this?” he roared out to the alarmed but innocent messenger, who replied: “Why, ain't you Mr. Seymour what reports base ball for the Buffalo Courier?'" The state engineer went back to his bed to wait impatiently for morn- ng. And though the next day was the Sabbath he took the first train for almost any place where he would be likely to hear men, women and children talking about something besides scores, errors, fly balls and base A Word About Catarrh, “It is the mucous membranc, that woi semufiuid cavelope surrounaing tho deli N sues of the air and food passages, that Catarrh makos its stronghold.
