A revort from the club's acting committes in regard to building & hall was received. It is proposed to crect a 810,000 structure. No definite action was taken as to when or where the hall is to be erected. There was a lively time botween some of the members of the club, and especially with those who are prohibitionists, when the following resolution was read : Whercas, Prohibition would be detrimental to the best interests of Omaha, and as it would be ruinous to the educational advan- tages which we now enjoy, be it Resolved, That we réquest our repres tatives at Lincoln to use all their influenc: against the passage of the submission bill, The resolution brought forth a warm de- bate, but it was passed, notwitnstanding the opposition.

Recent Embezziements of Nearly Four Millions of Dollars Ou the Sth of December, says Prof. Henry Wade Rog m the February Forum, President Cleveland transmiited to the senate when he pro- posed asa new treaty tradition th Great Britain. In which accompanied it he inadequacy of the existing arrange- ments for extradition between the United States and Great Britain has been long apparent.” The proposed treaty has been allowed, hewever, tolie on the table of the senate for three years without final action. The senate cannot be unaware of the fact that the ex- isting extradition relations of the two countries are inadequate, and a con- stant menace to the business interests of both nations, particularly so to all financial institutions in ciljfl:l' country. Neither can the senate be unaware, for its attention has been called to it in a memorial, that between the time when the treaty was sent in, and February, "1888, when ac- tion was again deferred, postponing it 10 the present session, & partial list of embezzlements committed in the United States, by ns who fled to Canada, amounted to #3,540,570. Most of the embezzlemeyits noted had tak place within a single ar, The of them was that of an insurance man of Hartford for $1,000,000. The failure of the senate to take jaction on_this treaty seems to many scarcely creditable, and the friends of the Cleveland administra- tiou have professedto see in it an un- worthy partisan puapose. But whether or not there are any just grounds for this opinion, it does uot concern us her to inquire. The ‘important fact co fronting us is that nothing has been a complished, and that our extradition arrangements with’ Great Britain are to-day no better thgn they were in 1842, Those relations are wholly inadequate and strangely prejudical to the best in- terests of both nations, whose criminal law is weakened because the ndrels of either country can enjoy impunity for all but a few crimes, by escaping from the jurisdiction of one to the juris- diction of the other. e More substantial penefit can be ob- tained from a 50 cent bottle of Dr. Bige- low’s Positive Cure than a dollar bottle of any other cough remedy.

Plump and fair She had a complexion which y a Dearborn avenue belle would have given money to possess; a wreath of light-brown halir, pretty teeth, a neat foot, and a well-turned ankle. It was no wonder that Per Petterson gazed at her proudly and was the envy of all the young fellows in the room. Per couldn’t talk English. He had only been in the country two weeks His bride, Elsie Patterson, nee Ander- sou, had ‘been in Chicago a year and could tulk English with just the pretti est kind of accent and just the cunnir est kind of halting at some of the harder words imaginable, and it was on her that the reporter had to depend for an explanation of what she meant by her remark, “Karleken skrattar at riglar och las.” 'S0 you want to hear how Per and I overcame our difficulties and v how eluded the vigilance of our friend: asked Elsie. “*Well, you shall, for I think we pulled thé wool over my people’s eyes quite nicely. You must know, then, that my father owns a big farm in Sweden. Oh, it is such a nice place. It is so much different from your farm houses here. When you come up Othe road you can see it a long way off. You enter a great, big gate and find self in a great courtyard, in which isa pump and a trough where the stock is watered. At the other end of the court, opposite the gate, is the part of the house in which the family live. Enter- ing the door, you come into an immense hall. At oné side isthe spare room for the guests, on the other the great kitchen. Off this is the pantry and a large store room, and a bed-room ad- joins this. Aunother door from the nhall leads to the dining-room, which is also used as a sitting-room. Then every farm-house has a weaving-room, where the girls spin the flax, which is made into clothes for the family., Then there are other bed-rooms and the great laun- dry. These are all on one floor, for my father’s house was a one-story one. ““Then on each side of the court and adjoining the farm-house are the gran- aries rnd places for keeping the stock. One place for hay, another for horses, next is one for the cows, still another for the pigs, a separate one for the geese, and then one for the chickens. Back of the house is the garden. Don't you remember,” said Elsie, turning with a blush to her husband and spenk- in her native tongue, it was in the pld garden that we fixed up the plan to fool the old folks? Well, sir,” she continued in her broken English, “you must know that ail the farm-girls in my country must work. Somelimes in the garden or the fields, or oftener herding the cows. It was when I was tending the cows in the pasture that I first met Per here, and we soon got to watch for each other, and then---well, then we loved each other,” and here the bride blushed very prettily. **Oh, it was all verynice and pleasant until my mother found it out, and then she raised a terrible fu: She said Per was not rich enough.

It was but last night that Ludwlg Larson told me he wanted you for his wife, and he is the man that you must marry.’ “Oh, I ‘was scared! and I eried and cried, for you must know I hated that man Larsos Just think! Why he was forty-five years old and I was only sev- entéen! And he had nasty red huirand crooked, yellow tecth and big feet, and oh! everything that wasn’t nice—ex- cept his money. He's awful rich and has a big farm which is next to Nours Such big granaries has he, and horses and cows and pigs and_geese that you nnot them all. But T wouldn't have and my mother shut me up for a .and it was only when I promised k to Per that she let me out o, 1 didn’t keep my promise. It d for me to disobey, I know, but I just couldn't help it; so one night, when some one tapped on the window, which looked out in the garden, and [ looked out and saw Per, I opened the window and we whispered together And this was many nights that he came that way. All this time was old Lugwig Larson coming too. He would come in the early evening and sit and smoke by the big fire place, and my mother would set out the bottle with the brandy, and he would drink and talk and drink and talk. Then, at 10 o’clock, we would have supper—milk and meat and fish and coffee—and brandy for the men; and after sup old Larson would sit by the fire and ¢ drink and ts drink, for that is the way they court girls in my country. “But I not always talk. I was thinking, and thinking how, may be. I would have to m: him. Andthen, when he had come this way for a long time he got mad and told my mother he must have me this Christ- mas time coming. And I cricd again, and then I thought me of friends in Chicago so far off, and wished I could run aw I told Per one night and h says: ‘You stay here, but don’t m old Larson, and I will go to America, and when I save money enough to fix up a house, I will send for you.’ ‘*At first I thought that would be all good enough, but 1 was afraid after- ward, For I thought if Per goes and 1 want to go afterward my mother will not let me go, for she will think I will meet Per in America, Sothen we made ready to pull the wool over their eyes. After I told Per, whispering to him out of my window, I went one day to my mother and told her I wanted to go to America, I would earn money, when I was nineteen if Ludwig L wanted me I would marry him. at last my mother and old La they said all right avd I came. Yes, T have earned my moncy. I worked in a family, and because Swedish girls have to do housework at home I got along all right. And all the time I was writing to Per, but so that my folks did not know it. You must know, sir, that in the country some one of the farmers fws to the postoffice in the town and gets all the mail for the neighborhood. My father did it for my neighbors and I as afraid that he would see my letters to Per; so I would always register my letters. It cost much more, but then no one but Per could get them. Oh! I was—what you call it Z_a great schemer. And soa month or 80 ago Per he tells his folks that he is going to America, and they and my folks know not that he knows where I am, and they think nothing of it. But Per he comes right to Chicago and I leave my place where I was working and—well, to-morrow I will write to my mother and tell her that I could never marry old Larson and ask her not to scold me when she writes. **And now, sir, you know why I say to o * “Karlcken skratter at riglar och las,” ————— High Art In a Sanctum.
