Appointm nts By the Governor of Delegates to thoe Charities and Corrections Conference—~Long Pardoned—Lincoln Nows, [FROM THE DEE'S LINCOLY BUREAU.| 1f appearances are not entirely deceit- ful the board of transportation is in & po- sition to receive for the first time more than delays and deceits from the railroad managers in the state. The work of Judge Mason in the comparison of rate tables 18 unanswerable, and for the first time place before public view the high- handed robbery that the railroads of the stato have practiced against the people. That this troubles the managers is ovinced from the fact that Thomas L. Kimball and George W. Holdrege visited the commission last week without an in- vitation. They came down to lay down the law to their strikers and to work upon any in the state house whom they could hope to intimidate. Their visit, With one or two exceptions, was barren of results, and if the same members of the board of transportation stand as firm in the future as they have in the first month of the board’s history under the new law, the railroads will find to their sorrow and disgust that they cannot brush aside the exposure of their manner and method of practical robbery upon the people of the state. There is a good substantial majority of the board that has entered upon the work of regulating the high handed ox- tortions on the part of the railroads, with an earnestness and honesty that is com- mendable. There is every reason to be- lieve that two, at least, of the appointive secretaries of the board are thoroughly in earnest in the work of carrying out the plans of the board, and it 18 a sign of promise to the public. The fact that the public is being informed of the methods of the railroad in their chargesis not sat- isfuctory to Mr. Kimball and Mr. Hold- rege. It is aboutthe first time that any- thing has not been satisfactory to the railroads. DELEGATES APPOINTED.

At the meeting of the city council Monday evening lrivrlc of excitement was eaused by the reading of a commun- ication charging Police Judge Parsons with appropriating money, belonging to the city end falling to pay over fines collected in the routine cf his office. For Aome time parties have had an expert examining the dockets of the judge and the result is the series of charges as made.

The signers to the petition for an investigation are A. Saunders, John Sheeay and A. J. Hyatt, and in accord- ance with their ‘request Councilmen Briscoe, Billingsby and Pace were ap- pointed a committee to hear and investi- gate the charges, to take testimony and report. Police Judge Parsons said he was ready for the investigation, and an hour's notice was all he asked. Council- man Pace being absent from the city yesterday, the time for hearing was set for Thursday of the present week. BRIEF ITEMS, John B. Hawley, attorney for the Fro- mont, Elkhorn ‘& Missouri Valley rail- road, was in the city yesterday and filed & domurrer at the railroad commission office against the charges made against his road by the Lincoln Freight bureau. 1t was up for hearing in the afternoon. A man named Thomas Hanlan was arrested Monday night as a burglar, for depredations at tbe Model laundry, near the fair grounds. In making the arrest Hanlan showed fight and drew arevolver on the ofticer but did not use it as an- other officer rapped him over the head. Yesterday forenoon he escaped from the police at headquarters prior to ms trial, and at lust reports was yet at liberty. At the meeting of the board of public lands and buildings the J)Inns of A.J. Rittenhouse were accepted for the new hospital for the mcurable insane to be lo- cated near that place. The plans call for a three-story and basement brick building, to cost when completed not over $75,000, the cost to include all plumbing and steam heating. As soon as the architect furnishes duplicate plans the sceretary of Aatate will call for bids for the construc- tion of the building according to tne specifications. This building is to be lo- cated west of the city of Hastings near the latest addition ‘laid out, which is about half way to Juniata. W. H. Munger, one of the seccretaries for the board of transportation, arrived from Fremont yesterday and has com- menced work with the board. Mr. Mun- ger has been detained froman earlier ar- rival by serious sickness in his family.

'he Metropolitan band gave another ot their series of evening concerts at the government square last evening. A prohibition picnioc was hcld at the town of Bennett yesterday that was numerously attended by Lincoin people. Seeds That Germinate Quickly. The human system is a fruitful soil, and among seeds that germinate most rapidly in it are those of rheumatism and neuralgia. A slight cold, brought on by sitting in a _draught, wel feet or damp clothes, will develop either of those abomiuable painful maladies with un- pleasant rapidity. The proper prevent- ive of this agonizing vegetation is Hos- tetter’s Stomach Bitters, a medicine which nullities a tendency to either of the maladies named, and_ soothes the aches which they cause. Nor isit le effective asa remcdy for rheumatism than as a preventive, a fact as amply at- tested as any other relating to its cura- tive properties. Mariners, miners, front- tersmen, and others, have found it a faitnful preservative of health in unfa- vorable regions, and a benign remedy for malarial disorders, and stomach, liver and bowel complaints, Itis a fine pro- moter of appetite and a capital tonic. ——— e The Monntains on the Moon. “*Astronomy with an opera glass,” by Garrett P. Serviss, in Popular Science monthly for August. Of course, the first thing the obscrver will wish to see will be the mountains of the moon, for every- body has heard of them and the most sluggish imagination is stirred by the thought that one cun look off into the sky and behold “‘the eternal hills,” of an- other planet as solid and substantial as our own. But the chances are that, if left to their own guidance, ninety-nine persons out ot a hundred would choose exactly the wrong time to sec these mountains. At any rate, that is my ex- perience with people who have come to ook at the moon through my telescope. Unless warned beforechand, they invari- ably wait until fuli moon. when the flood of sunshine poured perpendicularly upon the face of our satellite conceals its rugged features as effectually as if a veil had been drawn over them. Begin your observations with the appearance of the narrowest crescent of the new moon, and follow it as 1t gradu- ally lills, and then you will see how beau- tifully the advancing line of lunar sun- mise reveals the mountains, over whose slopes and peaks it is chmbing, by its ragged and sinuous outline. The ob- server must keep in mind the fact that he is Iuokinr straight down upon the tops of the lunar mountains. Itis like a view from a balloon, only ata vastly greater height than any balloon has ever attained. KEven with 'a powerful tele- scope the observer sees the moon at an apparent distance of several hundred miles, while with a field-glass, magnify- ing six diameters, the moon appears as if forty thousand miles off. T'he apparent distance with Galileo’s telescope was cight thousand mles. Recollect how when secn from a great height the rugos- ities of the earth's surface flatten out and disappenr, and then try to imagine how the highest mountalns on the earth would look 1f you were suspended forty thous- and miles above them, and you will, per- haps, rather wonder at the fact that the moon's mountains can be seen at all.
