Btockuam, Neb,, Sept. 24.—|Correspond #nee of the Brk. |—<The great event havpened yesterday. Stockham is now connected with Omana, Chicago and other commercial cen- ters by railroad. ‘I'ne track layers caught up with the bridge builders at the crossing of the West Biue at this point yesterday noon, and had a half-day lay-off. By working late and early the two bridges at this point were completed and everything is moving along briskly, The bridge builders, plle haulers, .Me haulers and track layers, together with camp equipage, tents, living facilities and teams in great numbers make a scene of ani- mated industry that is entirely modern. The work is so well sy at two miles of truck can be Iaid in & day. ‘The opening ap of this rich country to a eonnection with maha will add an important item to its in- terior trada. And it behooves Omaha to be on the alert to oecupy the field in advance of Its sompetitors. e stoek trade of th! Ion is very large and will continue to A Omaha ~ 15~ the' Inevitable stock market the future. The valley of the Blue 1Is a great corn and stock eountry, and Stockhiam 1s bound to be- wmn one of its most active trading points. ith fair local rates as compared wi the’ Im haul rates, it ought to be a rare thing in. d: for this section of country to ship its stock farther east than Omaha, or to buy its R0ods beyond the Missourl. Tha great North- western rallway did a good stroke of business in_bullding 1ts two South Platte branches this summer. as every mile built will havea paying local trade from the start. Fairbury Enterprises, FArmepuny, Neb., Sept. 24.—|Special Cor- respondence of the Bxe. |—Despite the pre- dictions of the old fogies Fairbury still continues to boom and the price of city prop- erty to advance. New buildings are con- stantly peing erncted in all parts of town. Regular trains are now running on the new roads which have just been completed. The Kansas City & Omaha runs from here to Stromsburg and connects with the Union acific. The Denver branch of the Rock and runs to Bellville and is being extended on westto Denver. The roundhouse and new depot of the St. Joe & Grand Island and the Kansas City & Omaha are nearly built. Carpenter and Gage, of the Jefferson county nursery, are bullding a brick storage house 80x100 feet, with basement under the whole bullding.

A telephone line is being built trom Fair- bury to Bower to connect the nurseries with the city. Nine miles are to be put up, A planing mill is to be built soon by Mr. Orson Graham, recently from Pennsylvania. ‘The county jail having become too small to accommodate “the boarders, the citizons are petitioning the county commissioners to sub- mit a proposition to the voters at the next election to build a $10,000 jail. A petition is also being circulated to submit at the same :lme a proposition to buy land for a poor A m. Candidates for the various county offices are plentiful. ‘The brick yards are doing a rushing busi- ness and have no trouble to dispose of their product. Lhe county fair commences the 27th, with prospects of great sucoess. Nearly all the pleasure seekers and moun- tain climbers have returned. .To Build a New Bridge. CoLumBus, Neb,, Sept. 24.—|Correspond- ence of the Bee.]—Columbus again enters the pool of agitation, and her citizens are de- termined not to be lagzards in the march of improvements. The frequent occurrence of losing the bridze across the Loup Fork has caused a constant draft upon the pockets of the merchants, and ajdeputation of the bridge fund to the very minimum, to the detriment of other bridges, demoralizing trade, and mu“.lcrlnz uncertain travel to the county e al 1t has been resolved to construct a perma~- nent bridge over the Imllr at this point at a cest of forty-five or fifty thousand dollars, the city of Columbus voting $30,000, and the township $10,000, A large amount of trade wll‘l) rg-ltl:xm when a permanent bridge shall ui Mr. and Mrs. O.

'The bugky was completely over- turned, the ton being detached from the wheels and the horse dragging Mr. Gleason some distance, but was caught by Ilon. George W. Bowman. ‘I'he occupants of the bugiy were slightly shocked and bruised. Goorge Jenkinson was arrested to-day on the charge of offering at the First National bank a forsad check _for 875 purporting to have been drawn by V.

ANAMOSA, Ia., Sept. 25.—[Correspondence to the Bek.|—Some time ago a boy by the name of Charles Purney, homeless, friend- less, defenseless, and almost feeling the very pangs of starvation, was captured in the woods of Jackson county, and almost mobbed for the erime of larceny. lle was rescued from his inhuman captors and tried for burglary and larceny and sentenced to seven- teen and a half years in the penoitentiary at this place. The articles stolen by the young man were those necessary to tho sustaining of life—something to eat and something with which to make a bed in the woods. _All of 08¢ gouds combined were valued at 855, but the cunning lawyers made a devision of each depredation alleged to have bsen committed, and fourteen counts were put in the indiot- ment against him. was tried without witnesses, without defense and did not even soee the jury that convicted him, and did not know where his trial was in progress.

Pteosin--Salinsy A MOUND MOVEMENT., The Government to Preserve These Ancient Works. WasHINGTON, Sept. 25.—|Svecial to the Ber.]—The government has actively undertaken a work that is of the utmost interest and consequence to every American who is interested in American archwology and history. This is the purchase of the most extensive, noted and valuable of the ancient mounds, earthworks and fortifica- tions found on this continent. ‘These mounds are located in Ross, Highland and Adams counties, Ohio, and are the best pre- served ancient works to be found east of the Roeky mountains. Of their peculiar charac- ter, they are the most extensive in the world. The government 1s being spurred to greater activity in its desire to control and preserve these splendid old works of unknown origin, by two causes. One is that in mwany cases the mounds, earth and stone works and fortifications of various designs, are suffering sadiy by reason of the cultivation of country in which they are situated. Yy important mounds have been plowed down, and many of the walls enclosing ancien! towns have been almost leveled to the ground, in whole or in part. In some instances the natural wear and tear of rain and storm, or frost and snow and ice. and many thaws, has done an irreparable amount of mischier. The work of preservation cannot longer be de- 1ayed by the government. The second reason for energetic action is a rivalry in this work between the scientists of the Peabody mu- seum, the Smithsonian institution and the United States geological survey. Not long ago the 'eabody museum acquired the fa- mous_Serpent mound, one of the best pro- served of all of Ohio’s ancient works. I'he museun authorities contemplate the estab- tablishment of a permanent park in which this rare specimen of ancient works will be preserved. Government agents are now scattered throughout Ohio making sur- veys of the most important ancient works which are purchaseable, and collecting such notes and estimates, charts and maps as will be available, not only in determining the character and cost of the work necessary to be done to enclose and preserve the works, but which will also be available for use in the elaborate report the government now has under way relative to the ancient mounds and earthworks of America. Wright has been making valuable surveys in behall of the United States geolozical survey. This is the first visit of a scientific_corps of the government to these works. Prof. Wright said that they were the largest of the kind in the world, and were noted both in the scien- tifie cireles of Europe and in this country. Hints to People Going Abroad. 25.—[Special to . are contem- plating a sea voyare, whether for pleasure or profit, and who have thémselves had no practical experience to guide them in the se- lection of articlas fit or necessary for use on shipboard, will perhaps find the following hints from an old traveller ot service to them. They wers Imparted to your corres- vondent by the captain of one of the Whnite Star steamers, which line has the reputation of being one of the best, It not the best, afloat. Referring to the trans-Atlantic travel of the present season, he said: “There has been an unprecedent ed rush to Europe this summer by Americans. It has been cal- culated that thers were 200,000 Americans over there as tourists, but I am confident that that number will not include them all. Probably out of all that number not more than one in a hundred enjoyed thelr passage over and back, and it is simply because they don’t know how to travel com- fortably. It was not due so much to the vessel in which they performed the voyace as to their lack of acressories, because the large Atlantio steamers are really models of com- fort, lighted throughout with the electric light and fitted with elegant saloons, ladies’ cabins and smoking rooms on deck. But the majority of people don’t know what to take with them on a sea trip, 1n the first [;(lnce, since to those persons prone to seasickness the deck is the bese place, & steamer-chair is indispensable. ‘They can be had very reason- ably, and the amountof comfort to be derived from them amply repays the outlay, Then a supply of rugs should be taken. Even when it1s hottest on land it is al: cool on the ocean, and they will be found "very accepta- ble. In anticipation of bad weatiier a water- proof should also be taken. Always wear your oldest clothes on shipboard, for those you do wear will be bound to get soiled. A tight fitting eap of woolen or worsted which will not easily blow off, and a pair of canvass shoes with rubber soles will terially assist in producing the comtort of the wearer, Rub- ber soles to one’s shoes give one a £ood erip ou the deck, besides beihg waterproof should the decks be wet. A pair of old gloves may also be worn with advantage. There never has yet been found any remedy for seasickness and the only preventative is staving on shore. L have always recommended my passongers who were sick to continually keep something on the stomach, T'hat is to say, after they haveshad an attack of seasickness let the eat something, however little. A licht bis: euit or cracker is a good thing to nibble on. 1f they allow their stomachs to remain empty at the next attack the retching and straining will pecome very painful and affect their backs 80 that they will wish themselves any- where th on board the vessel. Lf they can stand it, a little brandy, & spoonful at a time, taken after an attack will be a help to them 1f they can’t take brandy let them have a Iittle water with lime in it. A reclining posi- tion is the best, and by all means let them stay on deck as long as possible. While they are sick the less they go below the better, and when recovering let them abstain from all rich foods until the stomach is strong enough to retain it. If these httle things were more attended to, or better known, people would derive a good deal more pleas- \&ru from ocean traveling than the majority 0 now,” ———— Snow in Maine, FARMINGTON, Me, Sept: 25.—Snow fell north of here this morninz, covering the tops of the Old Blue and other mountains. e Arrested as u Hotel Beat. A neatly dressed man arrived at the Paxton last Friday and registered as Ed M. Talbot, of Rock Island. He had no baggage, but was given a room and board, The clerks of the hotel became suspicious of him yesterday morning and had him arrested as a hotel beat. When taken to the jail he gave his name as A, M. Talert. It1s not stated upon what rrounds the suspicions were pased, but the man protested that Le had no idea of, defrauding the hoter.

The Hoarding Mama—Kleptomania ana Other Impilses. Willham James, professor of philosnphy n Harvard college, concludes in the Pop- lar Science Monthly Tor September _his review of the human jnstinets which may be considered fundamental 1n man. He begins with hefew words about ap- propriation or acquisitivenesf. *‘The heginnings of acquisitiveness are seen in the impulse which very young children display to snatch at, or beg for, any ob- ject whicy pleases their attention. Later, when they begin to speuk.among the first words they emphasize are ‘me’ and ‘mine,” Their earliest quarrels with each other are about questions of ownership, and parents ot twins soon learn that it conduces to a uiet house to buy all presents in impar- tial duplicate. Of the latter evolution of the propriety instict I need not speak. Every one knows how difficult a thing it is to covet whatever pleasing thing we see, and how the sweetness of the thing often is as gall to us so long as it is an- other’s. . . . Incivilized life the im- pulse to own 18 usually held in check by circumstances legitimatized by habit and common consent. A phase of this qual- ity shows itself in making collections of anything, from pieces of chalk and peach up to books add photographs, which per- haps have no interest save the charm of possession. “Everyone collects money, and when a man of petty ways is snutten with the collecting mania for this object he neces- sarily becomes a miser, The hoard- ng instinct prevails midely among ani- mals as well as amorg men. Professor Silliman has thus described one of the hoards of the California wood-rat, made in an empty stove of an unoccupied house: ‘I found the outside to be com- posed entirely of spikes, all laid with symmetry, 80 as to yresent the points of the nails'outward, "In the centre of this mass was n finely divided fibres Interlaced with were the following: About two dozen knives, forks and spoons; all the butcier's knives, thre number; a large carving kmfe, fork and steel; several large plugs 0, an old perse conta and tobacco; rom the tool chest, with large augers, all of which must ve been transported some distanc they were originally stored in difl parts of the hou » a silver watch was disposed of 1 one paat of the pile, the glass of the same watch in annother, and the works in still another.” Lunatics show the collecting instinet in an equally absurd way, collecting pins, thre; buttons or rags,and prizing them exceedingly. The miser is simply one of these mentally derafigéd persons. *‘His intellect may in many matters be clear, but lus instinets, esppdially that of own- ership, are insane, and their insanity has no more to do with the association of id than with the procession of the equinoxes. As a mattef of fact,his hoard- ing is directed to money; but it also includes almost nu‘l ng besides, often of no value whatever.” Of course, there may be an *‘association of ideas in his mind about the lhinb;'u he hoards. He is a thinking being and must associate; but without an entirely blind impulse in this direction, behind alf the 1deas, such prac- tical results could néver be reached. Kleptomania is an uncontrollable jm- pulse to appropriate; “A curiong mple of this instinct is given c& a man who actually stole silver fzofm his own dining room, for whick £ afterward bought substitutes ‘with his own mong Congiructiveness is as genuine an in- ct in man as it i8 in the beaver, *hildren are less apt to tire of ‘‘blocks’” than any other plaything, Man remodels into shapes of his own whatever fallsinio his hands, and the result of the remodel- ing, no matter how useless, gives him more pleasure than the original thing. “The impulse to play in special ways is cestainly mstinetive, A bn{]c.m nomore help running after another boy who runs provokingly near him than a " kitten can m‘.r running after a rolling ball, A child trying to get into its own hand some object which it sees another child pick up, and the latter trying to get awno with the prize, are just as much slaves of an automatie promoting as are two chickens or tishes, of which one hus taken a big morsel into its mouth and decamps with it, while the other darts after in pursuit. The sexes differ some- whatin theleplay impulses. As Schneider says: “The Nttle boy imitates soldiers, models clay into” an oven, builds houses, mukes a wagon out of chairs, rides on horseback upon a stick, drives nails with tho hammer, harnesses his brethren and comrades together and plays the stage-robber, or lets himself be captured as a wild horse by some one clise. 'l‘ha(txrl, on the contrary, plays with her doll, washes and dresses it strokes it, clasps and kisses it, putsit to bed and tucks it in, sings ita cradle-song, or speaks with it as if it were a livin, being. This facts shows that a sexual dif- ference exists in the play impulse. The love of festivies, ceremonies, ordeals, ete., is only another and higher sort of play, and is an instinctive." Curiosity is another instinct which ex- ists not only in man, but pretty low down .mq"fi the vertebrates as well, Curiosity and fear are antagonistic emo- tions, liable to be awakened by the same outward thing, and manifestly both arc uscful to their possessor. “Inasmuch as new objects may always be advanta- geous, 1t is better that an animal should not absolutely fear them. But, inasmuch as they may alsg possibly be harmful, it is better that he should not be quite in- different to them either, but on the whole remaining on the qui vive, ascertain as much about them, and what they may be likely to bring forth, as he can before sct- tling down to restin their presence. Some such susceptibility for being excited and irritated by the mere novelty, as such, of any movuble feature of the envioonment must form the instinctive basis of all human curiosity; though of course, the superstructure absorbs con- tributions from so many other factors of the emotional life that the original root may be hard to find. With what is called scientific curiosity, and with met- aphysical wonder, the practical instinc- tive root has probably nothi to do. ‘The stimu)i here are not objects, bnt ways of conceiving objects, and the emo- tions and actions thez give rise to be classed, with many other esthetic mani- festations, sensitive and motor, as inci- dentel features of our mental life. The philosophic brain regponds to an incon- sistency or a gap in 1ts knowledge, just as the musical brain resyonds to a dis- cord in what it hears. Sociability and shyness are shown by man’'s being excited both by ttie absence and presence of his kind. " Solitary con- finement is by many regarded as the cruelest torture. Shyness s closely allied to fear, and yet is distinct from it in the ordinuary sense. Whether this impulse could ever huve been useful is & question :_hm. can only be answered in the nega- ive. Secretiveness is & prominent human characteristic, and often a blind pro- pensity serving ne useful purpose, and is 80 stubborn and incradicable a part of the human character as to deserve a place among the instincts, It may be doubted whether cleanlinoss is an instinct, but as some animals are cleanly man may be, and there 15 noth- ing to prove that cleanliness is not a genuine impulse. Whether modesty be an instinot is & still more open question. If the modest impulse does exist it must be admitted to have a mnqilnrly Nl-defined sphere of tluence. Ethnology shows it to have very hitle backbone of its own, and to eusily follow fashion and example. _Love bears on its face the most obvious signs of being instinctive, in the sense of being blind, automatic and untaught. The teleology the sexual impulses coi tain is often at variance with the wishes of the individual concerned actions are performed for no asiignable reason, but because nature urges that way. Jealousy is unquestionably in- stinctive. Parental love 1s an instinet, stronger in woman than in man, at least during the early life of its objuct. This point re- vuires no elucidation, This concludes the list of ‘‘the most prominent of the tendencies which are worthy of being called instinctive in the human svecies. It will be observed that na other mammal, not even the monkey, shows so lurge an array. In a perfectly rounded development every one of these instincts would start a habit toward certain others. Usually this is the case, but in the one-sided de- velonment of civilized life it happens that the timely age goes by in a sort of starvation of objects and the individual then grows up with gaps in his psyc constitution which futnre experiences an never fill. Fortunate it is for him if gaps are the only anomulies his instinctive presents; preservations are too often the fruit of his” unnatural bringing up. At 5!

Going to tue instru- lled the inevitable—'‘Hello!" "' came in the softest uc- cents. “‘Is that you, Miss Eulay” “Yes.” “Well, I've met with a sevious accident and can'c come.” *Oh, DeWitt!
