Governor Ames. of Massachusetts, and Governor Hill of New York, Goyernor Lounsbury of Connecti- cut, Governor Beaver of Pennsyl- vama and Governor Ormsbury of Ver- mont have addressed a letter to the gov- ornor of Nebraska, asking him to send a delegate to a convention to be held in New York city, August 23, to take united action on the question of extraditions. This guestion often involves trouble in securing prisoners and the convention is to remove obstacles. Governor Thayer has appointed Attorney General Leese the delegate from this state for the meet- ing. POLICE COURT NEWS, The Sunday round up of the police force brought” sixteen parties to the city {?ll who were on trial yesterday morning. ne noticeable feature was thata ma- Jority of them were in for drunk and 1t ‘was very evident that there was a good deal of llquor sold on Sunday from some quarter. ‘The beer that a portion of the crowd filled up on was bottled.beer, and the oflicers are searching for the hole n the wall through which the beverage was ussed. When the dockel was called for rial, John Foley and Fred Kingsbury were arraigned as vags. Kingsbury said e was a brakeman on the B. & M, and ‘oley said he was a hard working man, They were discharged to go to work or Jeave the city. James Taylor and I. Ryan were arrested by the police for drunkenness. Both plead not guilty and had their cases continued. John Riley, when arraigned for being drunk, ad- niitted 1t, but plead as an extenuating circumstance that he had just been dis- hmfud by & doctor who had been cnriufi Eor him for months for injuries receive by having nine cars pass over him. He explain that he felt so good in mung around agmin that he drank much. He with another party also named John Riley received the usual fine. Four parties, D. Riordan, Charles Senn, J. Sullivan and P. Shea, were * found'reveling with bottled beer Sunday near the new building of the H.T, Clarke Drug Co, They received on trial $3 and costs each. An old man named Du was fined $5 and costs and two other pai ties who were with him were fined also for drunkenness, One of these was a To- eka man who had staked his pile on the 'opekas in the ball games and lost his all. He drowned his sorrow in the flow- ing bowl and landed in the cooler, Hoe settied with the officers and departed at noon for the land of vprohibition. Robert McClusky had trouble with a gpecial oflicer at the ball game Saturday and was ejected from the grounds by the officer and ex-Shenfl’ Ensign. He was anded in the cooler and had his hearing yesterday, claiming that he was an inno- cent man, ‘Uhe court thought otherwise and gave him a fino of $5 as & wuarning of better conduct at the national game in the future. SINKING A WELL. The B. & M. workmen are sinking a well in their yards west of the city well to get a supply of water for their individual use. Jack Havham, of Crete, has the contract for the well which is twenty e foet in diameter and will be sunk until the same vein of water is reached that supphes the city well, ‘I'ne latter is not deep and the contractor expects to reach the water in the new well easily. When completed the well will be used for lecomotive work and presumably will be also kept as a reserve water supply for the company when fires demand it. BRIEF ITEMS, Hargreaves Bros., the wholesale rocers, received a car of sugar yesterday rom California, shipped via Omaha with the local freight from Omaha added. The firm will proceed in the same way that other wholesalers in the city have done. They will replevin the goods and take the case into the courts. The same firm are about to receive several cars of canned goods which they will secure in the same manner. A colored mun invaded the police Judge's oftice yesterday with a tale of woe and wrong in which his = wife was the chief evil doer. Accurding to lus statement, his wife is a very bad woman, but he wus nos inclined to drive her out #0 long as she contined herselt to two or o Hmm lovers. Of late, however, he states 4 **\ his humble home has 'been turned into & regular-lodging house and he was per- ) -4 Y & fecting arrangements for the arrest of the entire nest. F. M. Woods, the live stock auctioneer, has a long list of dates made for comin| sales.

The next contest that the Lincoln club will hold on the base ball field will be with Omaha Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, The club will depart from home with the expectation of taking the three games, and & good many Lincoln men will journey that way to see the contest. Judge O. P. Mason has gone to Loup City, where he is engaged as one of the attorneys in the prosecution of Richard- son, the murderer of *‘Skip” Willard. Judge Connor, of Kearney, is also re- tained by the prosecution, and the case will undoubtedly be prosecuted with all the vigor the eminent attorneys can command. A delegation of some twervxvt;'«fivo or thirty ecame up from Weeping Water yes- terday to see the final Topeka-Lincoln game. That place has sent a large dele- gation on both Friday and Saturday. There are signs of active preparation out at the state fair grounds, and the management will have every detail in readiness prior to the opening days. A large number of improvements were be- ing made to the bulidings that will be appreciated by exhibitors, Contractor Lanham, of Crete, was in Lincoln {enerduy. In addition to the big B. & M. well he is sinking here he has several wells in hand in western Kansas under contract with John Fitz- gerald, Arrival of a Large Gorilla. Boston Transcript: The bark White Cloud, from Africa, brought probably the Inrgesthorllln ever landed in this coun'ry. Jake, as he is called, is about five feet in Iwig\)t when standing eract, and measures seven feet from the end of one outstretched hand to the other, He weighs about 125 pounds, and exhibits enormous sirength,compared with which that of man seemslike a child’s. He ar- rivedin & lur*e box made of planking two and one-half inches thick,and when being removed from the ship he tore large splinters from the hard wood planks with as much ease as a child would break a twig, The hair, which is very coarse; and from two to four inches in length, is of a greemish-gray color, and on the back, legs, and arms inclines to black. His shoulders are immense. The ex- ression of face, which 1s black is scowl- ng. The eyes are small, sunken in_the head, and the lips large and thin. Jake was captured on Mingo peak, Gulf of Guinea, on the west coast of Africa. The work of trausferring the gorilla from ship to wagon and from his tempo- rary cage to his exhibition recepticle in a museum in this city was carefully per- formed to insure the safety of those en- gaged in it. ———— In advance of the sickly season ren- der yourself impregnable; a malarial at- mosphere or sudden change of tempera- ture is fraught with danger; use Dr. J.

The doctor 18" a player himself, and speaks from personal - experience as well as from observation. He says that one of his fingers was injured five times in one week, and that all his fingers have been injured at least once, His treatment is to continue, and at every opportunity— either in the street, in the office or on the tield—to firmly grasp the finger about middle and rub toward the tip. Under this treatment the swelling, stiffness and soreness diminish, and after some weeks are entirely gone. The most marked swelling of the hand, accompanied by great pain, can be best relicved by the application of water as hot as it can be borne, the hand remaining in the water for an hour,the temperature being main- tained during the whole time. Nothing will do 50 much harm to a player as to abstain altoget from playing because some trivial injury or sore muscles, uperior excellence proven 1n millions of v an & quArter of & century.
