Judge James has improved his park greatly but the latest and best is the new cottage just completed on Second avenue. Its loca- tion being one of the finest in the city, it is gratifying to sec such a residence placed there. The judge calls it a *‘cottage,” but it is spacious and elegant enough to be given a less modest title. It has eight rooms and the arrangement is wonderful for attractive- ness and convenience. The exterior is one of the most pleasing in the city. The inter- ior has a finish whicn is throughout, in every joint and fitting, as fie as cabinet wor “The first floor is finished in California re wood, rubbed down to a bright polish. ‘The hallway is finished also in this beautiful wood, with ok placed m pleasing contrast, especially 1 the wainscotting, where the panels of redwood and oak give a charming effect. “The upper floor s in Louisiana cypross, which finishes up beautifully. Of course all the conveniences of water, gas, furnace, bath room, ete., are provided. It is indeed a model which those planning to build would do well to inspect. .

Hillas, aged 41 years, wife of a prominent business man of that place. Over ten years ago Mrs. Hillas was a victim of malpractice and after trying every known remedy and subwmitting to many painful operations, she was told by the best physicians that her case was hope- less. This sad decision did not extinguish the sunlight of her disposition and vo word of sensure escaped her lips for those who were responsible for her misfortune. To her ‘‘Life was real, life was earnest.” Se kept her place in the family and social circles and her home was a favorite resort of both the old and young, Her life was full of good deeds, many of which were unkuown until after her death, and her self-sacrificing chnistian spirit left its impress on all who knew her, Her death was most edifying and consoling to her family and friends. Her funeral took place on Sunday morniug, from the Catholic church at Dunlap, Rev.

Cheaner to Subscribe, For several mornings lately the proy torsot the Conner book store have been un- able to find their Omaha Herald, although the carrier boy insisted that he had left it as usual. The only conclusion to be arrived at was that some one wvas stealing it, and Cap- tain O'Crien, of the merchants’ police, was put to work on the case. Yesterday morning he secreted himself in the vicinity, and the carrier was instructed to mark the paper so that it could be identified. Ths plan worked very well and the thicf was observed to deftly abstract the paper from the door and coolly walk away with it. At this juncture the “cop"’ nailed him, and shortly afterward he was taken before 'Squire Schurz for trial, He prave the name of Charles A. Gager, and said that he was married_and was in the em- ploy of a leading florist of th He was fined £ and costs, and experienced consider - able difficulty in Securing that amount. This habit of stealing morning papers has made considerabie trouble for the various news- pancr offices, and they have determined to “eiuch” the offenders whenever they are caught. Papers are furnished at a very low price, and there is no excuse for the petty thieves who make a practice of stealing them. In this case the culprit got off very easily, but others of his like who do not take timely warning, will have to take their dose full strength. J. G. Tipton has a number of bar- gains in residences on the installment plan. e — ‘The Railway Crossings. Since the change of grade on Sixth street the railway companies have neglected to put in suitable crossings over their tracks. This ed a great deal of complaimnt among ens in that vicinity, and they have sought redress at the hands of the city coun- cil. The matter should receive prompt at- tention. The railroad companies are very in- differcnt to the wishes of this city, and should be brought up with a round turn. They have received almost everything that they have asked, but show no_disposition to return any favors. No matter how small the desired change, it_requires very decisive action on the part of the council to secure it, Some time ago the council ordered the ob- structions under the Indian creek railroad bridges removed, but it required several visits of the city marshal, and the serving of innumerable papers, to bring the attention of the interested parties to the matter. This indifference o great deal of needless ouncil 1s under no obli gations to bandle the companies wich silk gloves. The council is supposed to have these matters under its own control, and should assert its authority, instead of allow- ing these domineering corporations to sub- ject the citizens to whatever annoyances they may desire.

What It Costs to Enjov the Seatof a Congressman, Globe-Democrat: “What do tocome to congress?” said a veteran representative, repeating my query “Well, there would be 300 and mors different replies from as many cong men.

A man’s ability and general fitness are minor considerations. Long public service countssomething in miti gating the damages, but a long purse is the most effective campaign document the country over. Even where a man has no opposition he has w come down with the cash to buy oil for campaign machinery. Take the case of Amos Cummings, the bright hewspaper man who represents the Sixth New York district. The nomination of his party came to him unsought and on a silver salver. It was what we call ‘a dead sure thing'—a nomination equivalent to election—but, all the same, Amos had to spend probably $6.000 before he drew amonth's salary” usa member of con- gress.” “For what?” “Oh, for many things.

Of il to whom it is impos course some of these expenses might be avoided, but not by a good-hearted fel- low who likes to be liked, who accepts no favors that he cannot recipro cate, district and who would mix freely with his con- stituents. Yet the ongressional honors to n man like Cymings, in o district like his, is small compared to the outlay requived of men like Bel- mont and Blsss, of New York: Bayne, of Pittsburg: Bingham, of Philadel- phia; Morse, of Boston, and Felton, of San Francisco. In addition to being good fellows and high livers they are reputed to be men of wealth, and must to sustain their reputation whether value it or not. 1 doubt whether y one of these gentlemen, or of a en others that T might name, gets to ashi without spending two ye {l for his footing, and the bleeding goos on from n threugh sssion, 80 long as they are here, Yet ey one of these members has an ex- perience and an acquaintance with methods in legislation which should yield him a biennial dividend in a cer- tificate of election clear of cost. It is to be said, however, that after a few years here a fellow learns to avoid many of the money traps that beset the congressional aspirant and the novice in congressional life. Politics are like any other game-—most expensive to a beginner, although a beginner may now and then win a big pot on a small stake. “*No, I do not call William L. Scott a beginner. He probably paid a bigger rice than any of us for his whistle, but e knew what he was about, and footed o damages like a little man. When millionaire sits down to capture a t conceded to the opposition, and has another millionaireas his opponent, the circulation of national bank notes is very active. Twenty-five thousand dol- lars is a reasonable guess of the amount that Bill Scott may have expended legit- imately, as campaign expenses go, in such an undertaking. I know men who have spent as much and then failed. Just let a known millionaire take a re- publican nomination in one of the New York districts with a top-heavy demo- cratic majority, and he will find it easy enough to get rid of a year’s interest on his fortune. Thorndike Rice and Larry Jerome are not millionaires, but thoy could throw some light on the subject.” **What about the men who read their title clear, term after term, without much expense?”’ “There are such congressmen, but I must say that they are growing fewer every year, At the head of the list 1l EIYp EUTED THE REPLY.

The lot is separated n the main part of the farm by a strip of woodland. and there is a forest on_the south and west sides of the field. There are four good springs in the pasture, and all the at- tention that has been paid to the steers since they were turned out was to feed salt to them once a week. Owing to some neglect no salt had been given to the cattle in more than a fortnight, and last Wednesday Farmer Whitney told to take a pailful of it up there and it to the steors, The moment the cattle saw Cass en- ter the field they galloped toward him at the top of their speed, and, before he had time to place the salt on the ground in little heaps so that they could all get a lick, the greedy, long-horned ani- mals completely surrounded him, They weve so hungry for salt that half a dozen of them tried to stick the noses in the 1 at once, and Cass had to kick them the jaws and yell at them to keep them from goring him and trampling on him. While he was doing all he could to make a passage between the uneasy brutes, the larvgest steer in the herd rushed up from behind with his head down, and, in his eager search for salt on the ground, he knocked Cass’s feet from under him. lost his balance and tipped over backward, sitting squarely down on the steer’s head between his long horns, and dropping the pail as he did so. Up went the frightened steer’s head, and , fearing that he would be thrown, grabbed a horn in each hand. The steer then started to run like wildfire, and Cass clung to the horns for dear life. The other brutes became Trightened at the strange spectacle,and with heads and tails up, they ran bel- lowing after the affrighted fugitive,that o bellowed at almost every leap. Cuss's legs prevented the runawa)y from secing ahead very well, and three times in his terrific circuit around” the field the steer came within a few inches of running his head against trees. The hired man is a strong fellow, and gen- erally courageous, but he said that he had never before in his life been so thoroughly terrified, and he knew that, while he was in danger of having his brains dashed outagainsta tree at any moment, he would be trmpled to death by the moving herd behind him if he threw himself from the steer’s head. On he hung with all his might, pray- ing that the steer soon would stop, and round and round the field the whole drove dashed like a herd of frightened bison. At the end of what Cass said seemed to be half an hour, but what he supposed was 1n_reality not more that ten min- utes, the steer panted as though his wind was giving out, slackened his speed a little, and dashed straight toward a strong brush fence next to the woodland. He leaped part way over it, became entangled in the mass of limbs and sapplings, and fell upon his right side, where he lay suruggling and kick- ing long enough for Cass t.) spring into the thicket ata safe distance from the sharp horns of the scaved and half-ex- hausted beast. The other cattle did not follow the fugitive steer, stopping in their mad dash just as he fell into the brush, Cass said that he was as weak as a cat for several minutes, and that his nerves were unstrung from fear and the energy he had expended in clinging to the steer’s horns. It was the most peril- ous position he was ever in, but he was not permanently injured, and in the course of half an hour the steer was uone the worse for his long run, like Kelley and | bner Whitney | Our stock this year is MORE We Send Will give your order immediate COUNCIL BLUFFS CARPET CO.
