The Farmer’s I'riend reviews the re- markable treatment of Senator Van Wyck by the people he so ably repre- sented and says: The fate of Hon, C. H. Van Wyck, late a United States senator from Ne- hraska, is one to point a moral if not to adorn a tale. Two years ago he stood up for the rights of farmers in the United States senate as no one ever stood before or since. Now he is rele- gated to private life. The head and front of his offending was that he made theland-grabbers and the railroad grant boodlers disgorge millions of land splended for cultivation. For this and for this alone he was retired, and what makes the} matter worse isthat the farmers did it and no one else. Ne- braska is overwhelmingly agricultural in its population, and the farmers could have kept this faithful public servant in the place he so ably filled, had they ed t0doso. Now they grumble cause agriculture is depressed and railroads have possession of some of the most fertile lands in the te. This is not an exceptional case. rm- ers quite frequently act in the same way in other states and forsuke those who have al been true to them for some new ‘“mash.” Agriculturists can’t afford to engage in this kind of play, and should never join with those who_oppress them to down a true and tried friend. When they do this they should not growl and complain because they ave maflo to bear more than their just share of the public burden. “Mrs. Partington’s” Old Age. B. P. Shillaber, better known as *‘Mrs. Partington,” now lives at Chel- sea, one of Boston’s many suburbs, says the Pittsburg Commercial. He is seventy-foar years of age, and crippled with rheumatism. He walks about the house with a cane and goes out of doors only in a carviage. He has not been to Boston for seven years. He began life as a printer, entering the Boston Post in 1838, He once gave two or three years of his Ife to a lecturing tour, and though he was successful, he regrotted 1t, feeling himself not cut out for that line of work. Now, he says, he goes nowhere. “With pen, paper, pipe and pills I sit here from year's end to year's end, patient 2s may be, receive my friends, and wait for a better life.” Dana’s Cogpliment to Sherman.

Every student knows that in close re: soning parallel lines of thought are laid down and deductions educed. ‘We have drawn the above visible lines simply to bring them prominently before your eye and 1o ask what they represent to you. A railroad man to whom we showed them said, **To me those four lines rep- resent u doublo track railway.” A doctor replied to the same inter- rogatory, *“The lines are to me the large arteries and veins lying alongside each other in the human body.” As every intelligent man or woman knows, the blood of every living person flows with almost railroad speed through the arteries, forced by that wonderful engine, the heart. From the arteries it is side-tracked through the capilliaries and veins, and every drop of blood goes through the kidneys for purification no less than 2,500 times every twenty-four hours, If the kid- neys be diseased the impurities of the blood containing the worn-out tissues, and deleterious acids are not drawn out or excreted as nature intended, but continually pass and repass through every fiber of the system, carrying death and decay with ‘every pulsation. Unless remedied the heart becomes weakened, the lungs trying to do double work break down, the liver be- comes congested, the stomach refuses to digest food, and the result is a gen- eral break down. . Because the kidneys, the sewers of the system, are foul and stopped up,and the entive blood becomes nothing more nor less than sewage. : Now is it not criminal, nay, suicidal, to ullow such a state of things to contin- ue when a simple remedy is within your reach, kuown for a certainty to do as vepresented which will open the olosed pipes of the: kidnays, allow the effote matter to escape, relieve the overworked heart, lungs and liver, cause a healthy appetite, put the bloom of health on your cheek, the dove of hope in your breast aud the light of life in your eye?

Soldiers Kept Busy Hjecting Them From Oklahoma. WAITING TILL BARS ARE DOWN, Land Hungry Orowds Are Anxiously Looking Forward to the Day When They Will Be Free to Enter. A Plot Against Tenderfeot. OxLAnOMA CrTY, Ok., April 11—|Special to Tnre Bee.]—The detormination of the Okla- homa boomers scems to grow greater as the time draws near for opening the coveted lands to settlement, and the United States troops are kept busy patroling the country and ejecting impatient squatters who are un- willing to wait for the opening day, April 23, Men are rushing in here with the same avidity that they rush into the booming min- ing camp, and every one seems afraid that somebody else will get hold of a better quarter-section than he will be able to get if he waits, They are kept moving on, how- ever, and are not permitted topitch their tents and camp, But the opposition only seerms to increase their anxiety, and serious trouble is apprehended in consequence, Thousands of homesteaders are camping along the line in Kansas, ready to rush into Oklaboma at dn{l‘ghl on the 22d, and unless tnere be a large force of United States troops and deputy marshals at hand, the fight for spoils may become a serious matter. Many veteran boomers who have been hungering for Okiahoma for the past five yeurs, and braved the hardships of Captain Payne's campaign, feel that they are entitled to first choice of lunds, and many assort that they will have the land formerly located, at all hazards. They have selected and watched their claims for years, and now, fearing that the new comers may get the best of them, they have become desperate. They hold their meet- ings in the various camps and seem to have decided on a plan of action, but just what course they intend to pursue is not known outside of their gang. It has been rumored liere that these men have banded together and intend burning the bridges and tresties on the Sauta e railroad on the night before the opening day, in order to obstruct the in- flux of homestcaders until they can make perfect their claim to the land they desire. A notice to this effect was sent by un- known parties to the Santa Fe agent, and a force of detectives wre' said to have been brougt here fby the railroad, and to hold themsclves 1 eliness to prevent damage to the company’s property, and every possi- ble pre ution 1s vbueing taken. But the boom- siy they do not pre jose to jeopurdize their chances by allowing a flood of tender- foots todrcp in on the land they have seiected, 1 look upon these lands as th 1r rights which :hey say they will forcibly maintain. There are already about twice as many people on the borders as cau be accommo- dated with homesteads 1 Oklahoma, and more are arriving every day. They are living in tents, dug-outs, wagons and every kind of shelter, and somo are camping out in the open air. Maay of these people repre- sent colonies from Nebraska, Colorado, Kan- sas, Missouri, and various other states. These colonies are said to number from twenty to 500 persons cach, aud it looks like all the world wants to settle in Oklahoma. The Santa Fe road is preparing for the open- ing day rush and every available car on its entire system 1s to be put in readiness to use on the 22nd. ny who can afford it are engaging private cars for their colonies and are putting up a handsome bonus for the pur- pose of binding the contract. One of the veteran Oklahoma boomers, who has been dodging the soldiers for sev- , speaking of Captain Payne’s efforts ory several years ugo, saig had he lived, would doubt- 1 his point by his detecmined persistence and boid daring. He was a mun of wondrous will and brave as a lion. A giant 1n stature with little education and no personal neatness; he was. as gentie usn woman, and was'greatly "belovad. by all his followe over whom he reigned with im- i Ris word was law, and none r questioned his right to rule, After having been arrestod twice by United States marshals, Payne and- his fol- lowers again entered this forbidden spot and built a village there. A company of the Ninth United States cavalry was ordered to remove them and destroy their village. The torch was applied and the village 6f Okla- homa was soon in ashes, and the leaders were taken to Fort Smith to be tried i the United States court there. But after col siderable correspondence betwéen the diffe ent departments, the president found that he had an elephant ‘on his hands, for these men wero guilty of nothing but trespass, and were soon released. Payne then brought suit for unlawful arrest against Lieutenant Jackson, the officer 1n command of the troop of United States cavalry that arrested him, but the case Wwassubsequentlydismissed,and the bold plans of opening Oklaboma by force were aban- doned.” Another part of the Indian Territory is sought to be opened by anxious home-seek- crs, for it is certain that the Oklahoma lands included in the president’s proclamation are not enough to go round. This is what is commonly known as the ‘‘Cherokee outlet,”” or *‘Cherokee strip.”” 1t is in the northern part of the territory and is considerably larger than Oklahoma proper. The title to the ‘‘Cuerokee outlet,” em- bracing over six million acres, is peculiarand anomolous. When the government ceded the Oklahoma lands to the Cherokee nation. the strip known as the *‘outlet” was also e braced in the deed, but as a mere gratuity without consideration, not for occupanc, but for the purpose of affording the Indians an outlet to the hunting grounds of the Rocky mountal The outlet was supposed to bo necessary in order to give a larzer arca for hunting purposes; but, not being necessary now, the Oklabhoma agitators claim that i equitably reverts to the government. This strip has been a profitable source of revenue for the Cherokee nation for a number of years, and 18 leased to o cattlo syndicate for grazing purposes for §250,000 a year. 'I'his leaso hus been made a source for complaint by parties who seck to open this territory, and Aitorney-General Garland, in an official opinion, sustamed their views. He held that, as the Cherokees used this ‘‘outlet” for purposes other than those for which it was donated, they forfeited all right and title to their lands, which, therefore, reverted to the government. Renewed efforts are now being made to open the Cherokee outlet to settlement, and President Harrison has appointed a commis- sion to treat with the Cherokecs and induce them to relinquish all claims to this terri- tory. This movement is being vigorously opposed by the cattlemen who lease thess lands from the Cherokees for grazing pur- poses, and they are bringing every influence 10 bear aguins’ opening them. The demands of homesteaders are so great, however, that all other pressure will have to give way and many people now camping on the Kansas line realize that they will be unable to get a homestead until the Cherokee lands are thrown open to settlement. Many of the best citizens of the Indian Territory favor the sectionizing of the entire territory, dividing the lands in severalty and secking admission to the union as any other territory. . One thing is certain, the organization of the territory’of; Oklahoma would tend very materially to decrease the amount. of crime committed in the various Indian nations. In its present shape, the Indian Territory offers a refuge to criminals from all over the world, for once within its borders they are safe from arrest, no matter what their crimes may be. There are no extradition laws to facilitate the caplure and punishment of criminals who roam the forests of the Indian Territory. Here they are as safo—safer i fact—than if vthey were in the wilds of Aus- tralia or Central Africa. ‘Irue, they can be punished for crunes committed within the borders of the territory, but for uno others, and as evidence of this fact it 18 but neces: sary to glance at the criminal dockets of the several United States courts having jurisdic- tion over Yluru of the Indian Territory. At Fort Smith alone, where, until recently, the United States had jurisdiction over the five civilized tribes, in ‘all cases except where only Indians are concernad, the criminal business is astounding. The court is almost in continuous session, and has before it from two buudred to three hundred criminals every year, for all classes of offense from murder down to violation of the revenue and intercourse laws. ‘There have been nearly & hundred Indian Territory murderers hanged from oue scaffold there within the past twelve yonrs, % say nothing of the many murderers Whoso sentences were com- futed to life iffprisonment. ‘The lawlessness of this country is owing to its bad governme; About forty tribes oc- cupy the torritoty, and by adhering to their tribal relations 4H Indian form of govern- ment they make the territory a rendezvous for thioyes and.ewtlaws from all quarters, who secl: safety in this vast region, and once hero follow theiv ayil impluses and lead lives darkened with geimes too horrible to picture.

HUMAN BBRNES IN A CARGO. © Egvpt's Dead Serving to Fertilize American Ficlds, Eighty thousand pounds of bones formed part of the cargo which the British steamer Wingates, from Alex- andria, Egypt, brought to this port a day or two ago, and which she is now discharging atthe docks of the National Storage company, in Communipaw, N. J., says the New York Times. The Wingates was brought into public notice on her recent trip by the rough handling she experienced at sea. Just after leaving Gibraltar she lost the greater part of her sails, and ninety- five miles from Now York her shaft broke, For some time she drifted about, but finally succeeded in reaching port. The steamer’s hold was filled wish longshoremen yesterday, who shovelled the bones into big baskéts and emptiod them into canal-boats lying alongside. As thoy worked a Times reporter asked the mate of the steamer about the bones. “*Well,” said ‘he, “a good part of them are human bones,and they are gathered from the deserts of Egypt. The rest are the bones of camels, horses and jackasses.” Egypt, he explained, has become u great source of supply for bones. The cargo of the Wingates was bought of a German dealer in Alexandria, who has made a fortune by his business. He sends out caravans into the deserts, and there the natives glean a harvest without any other effort than picking it up. The great quantity of bones now found is the accumulations of thousands of years. Those who died were thickly buried in a foot or two of sand, and thus every strong wind that blows reveals new mines of ghastly treasure. The bulk of the cargo is, of courso, made up of bones of beasts of burden, but parts of the human frame are to be seen in_every bucketful. The Egyp- tians who gather them have only one scruple about sending their fathers’ skeletons to become American fertil- i They will not send the skulls. These are cavefully buried again by the collectors. Offered to SeH Him a Chew.

If the name of the authoress were not attached to this novel, after tasting the literary repast therein provided, i would be evident that the menu had Dbeen arranged by the subtle hand of an artist. The consistent rationalist and the lover of sentiment seldom approve of the same feast, but in *‘Lady Car’ poth these literary epicures can enjoy an ample sufficiency. The story relates how Lady Car, daughter of Lord and Lady Lindons, was married to a rich Scotch landowner, the son of a navvy, against her own wishes, but at the in- stigation of her parents, who had ver little appreciation of the world in gen- eral, and, in fact, considered that what- ever enjoyment thero was attainable could only be derived from the power of money. Lady Car at this time was deeply attached to Mr. Beaufort, a gen- tleman in every sense of the word, but unfortunately enjoying only a small in- come. This atfachment aloue would have created a feeling of repugnance toward Mr. Thomas Torrance, the scion of navvydom, but;Lady Car's misery was increased by, the absolute cruelt, and utter brutality displayed by this man after their maprifige. Fortunately, Torrance dies, and leaves Lady Car most of his wealthy together with two very disagreeable- children. Shortly after his death she marries Beaufort but his éxperience of poverty has not nurtured any inconvenient senui- ment urging him to refuse the woman he loves, because she has be- come wealthy. Immediately after mar- riage they leave England and travel for several years, Lady' Car being desirous of shutting out hen past life, if possible, except that part,connected with her real lover, her present husband. On returning to Engiadd they settle down, buying a pretty plaee in Surrey. Lad Car was an enthusisstic 1dealist revel- ling in fantastic aspirations, and bad adwmired - Beaufort in the early aays cniefly because be talked with her of his lofty ambitions, his desire to im- prove the world, The remainder of the book tells how she strove to forget her life with Torrence and her mental suf- fering at the discovery of Beaufort’s loss of ambition, Everything combines to oppose her efforts to banish the past —the children inherit the brutal in- stinets and features of their father, and Beaufort'’s cool and rational gentility unwittingly but gradually crush her spirit, till finally her son’s miserable behavior and connection with a girl very much lower in the social scale, proves her deathblow. Lady Car's delicate nature is drawn with ¢onsummate skill; the character at SATURDAY , A 13; 1839, first appears a little morbid and weak but beeomes more interesting when she removes the mantle of idealism with which she had robed Beaufort for so long: a feeling of pity acquired by her earlier fantastic emotions gives place to a sineere n?'mpmhy at the disappoint- mont of all’ her hopes. Beaufort is a _;hurm?rhly symmetrical study and en- tirely free from all incongruities. The finale of the story is very pathetic, and beautifully told, with all the refined ex- pressions for which Mrs. Oliphant is so celebrated. JAck or Heanrts, by H.T. Johnson, Judge Publishing company, New York. “A fan is not what he is born but what he lives.” This truth the author undertakes to illustrate in the first con- tribution to n series of novels now being issued by the Judge Publishing com- lmny‘ The story is called ‘“‘Jack of Jearts™ and is from the pen of Mr. H.
