Two or three woeks agzo the dog showed evidences of madness. He became as say- age a8 u bull dog and fought with and whipped every dog in the neighborhood. One day ho even bit bisola friend, the horse. The muadness of the animal was evidenced by the dropping of saliva_ from the mouth and his aversion to water. It was fiually de- cided to kill him and a blue-coated momber of the police force was called in to do the worls, which he did in a satisfactory manner, after twenty-five shots had been expended. On Sunday the horse began to show symp- toms of madness. He would snap at his keeper and when offered a bucket of water would lay back his ears, glare viciously and attempt to knock the bucket of water over, He would bite everything near mim and even attack himself, leaving soveral ugly gashes with his teoth on his rignt shoulder. ‘I'he manger and corn box were completely splintered by him, and Monday afternoon he bit so viciously at the seantling on the top of the manger that he broke his jaw. A veterinary surgeon was culled and it was then discovered that the horse was mad. Nothing could be done to save the an- imal and the owner most reluctantly turned bim over to the garbage man to be shot, as he did not have the hearu to do so himself. The garbage man did the job and dumped the carcass in the river. 1t is not known how many canines have heen bitten by Mason’s dog, but two or three that are positively known of have been ordered shot. 2 Within the past three days thero have beon many inquiries av Tie BEE office ‘con- cerning the location of the famous madstone at ono time in this Tho stone 18 at pre- sent in the possession of a physician at Lin- coln, but no further information can be given concerning it at present.

Terrible 1s the disease, foll ite consequences. There is, however, a known antidote to the missmatic poison, and 8 vertain safeguard agawnst it. In malarions regions of our south and west, 1 Soutn America, Guatemala and on the Isthmus of Panama, as well as i transmarine countries where tho scourge exists, this inimitavle reventive and remedy, Hostetter's Stomach itters, has, during the last thirty-five years, been constantly widening the area of its use- fulness, and demonstrating its sovereign value. Liver complaint, dvspepsia, consti- pation, kidoey trouble, rheumatism and de- bility are all remedied oy it. Tne Allegea Murderer Shellenverger, the alleged murderer, is sull confined in the city jail. He has thus far made no confession as 10 his connection with the crime, but acts in the strange man- ner which has heretofore boon described in these columu: City Marshal Abbey of Nebraska City was in town yesterday. He callea at central sta. tion and had a secret conversation with Shel- lenberger. Mr, Abbey is of the opinion that there was o third man wixed up “in the Jones murder.

Davy Coykendall, Hecla, 8. y Chamberliin’s Cougn Remedy is the best medicine he ever handled, As he keeps over twenty different medicines for coughs and colds in stock at his drug store in Heota, this is » bold asser- tion but is uudoubtedly true. CUT RATES, They Do Not Seem to Be Greatly Ap- preciated. Publicly, the passencer rate war is not at- tracting nearly 80 much attention as it was supposed it would. That doubtless is be- cause thero are very few people who desire % go east at this time. This, however, makes no differenco to the railroads. They do not expect the reduction to ncrease their business, That 18 not the principle iuvolved, Through its contemporaries tho Milwaukeo has, for a long time, been compelled to dis- criminate against Omaha n favor of St Paul and Kaosas City. Consequently, it proposes now to give Omaba people the benefit of just us 10w rates as any other sec- tion of the country geta. Whether the cut Wil stop at §S first class and £5 secoud, or go still lower, was the most interesting question under discussioh today. A Rock Island official says that in all probabiiity his road would make the same west-bound rates as the Milwaukee & St Paul had made east-bound. _This will make the tariff in both directions #8 on flrst-class aud 5 on second-class tickets, a reduction of $2 in first-class west-bound below those an- nounced by the Milwaukee & St. Paul. The Rock Island will give ample notice, howaever, before making additional changes. While reducing tke first-cluss rate to &5 in both directions this compauy will not use tho $ second-class rates from Missouri river points east, but will allow connections to uso its line whero the rates make $S or less. Of course all ronds have been compelied to meet the reduced rates, - The fact that uni- form action-could not be secured by its con- temporaries in an atiempt to ignore the Mil- waukee's aetion indicates that sull further reductions will be made iu the near future. It is stated that the Millwaukee und St. Paut has instructed its connections to honor its second-class tickats (85 between Chicago and Kansas City on all cars except sleopers, ‘This will maxe thesa tickots almost as good as first-class, and it is quito certain that this action will cause a reduction in first-ciass fares to §5 in a few days. A Deserved rromotion. Robert Baxter has been appointed super- intendent of the Wyoming division of the Union Pacific road, being promoted from the position of assistant. W. L. Reyder, whom he succeeds, was transferred to the superin- tendency of the Idaho division, taking the place made vacant by the resignation of W. E. Green. A more deserved recogmtion of worthiness and faithful service could not have been shown than in the elevation of Mr. .Baxter, He bas risen gradually from a freight brakeman and in all positions proved himsetf capoble of filling the trust placed {n him. It has not been decided as to who will be his successor as assistant superintendent, but K. S. Corwiu, train- master, 18 1 tho line of promotion and stands well with the management.

Somo days ago ''me Bem reported tho gathering of the bishops of the arch-diocese of St. Louis for the purpose of selecting a coudjutor to Bishop O'Connor, who, it is well known, owing to illuess, has not for some time been able to attend (o the duties of his offico, Asa consequenco of tho meeting it was stated that the council had decided upon recommending to Rome, as the most worthy of beine considered coadfutor bishop to Bishop O'Connor, Vicar General Brady of St. Lous, As the proceeding# of the council weroe held bohind closed doors, and as the bishops had agreed not to disclose upon whom they had united, the alleged recommendation could not be verified, Nevertheless, suffi- clent credence was placed in it to more than usually attract the attention of the clergy of this diocese. It occurred to some of the lattor that it would not only be a practical move but also a_dictate of policy to give the priests of this diocese a voico in thp selection of the man who was to become their imme- diate spiritual superio Some of them cluimed they had long upon the plains and endured the privations incidental to tho work of evangelization in a mew country, Their parishes and congregations were in & formative state, and thd situation of buth pastors and people was such that it could not readily be appreciated by a bishop whose meritorious services bhad been rendered in the thickly populated and wealtby parishos of theeast. The advisability, therefore, of selecting a bishop for Nebraska from among the clergy who had long been identified with her people and her interests was easily made apparent. : 1t was, therefore, docided that a moeting of the Nebraska Catholic clergy shoula be be called to decide upon a man and suggest his nameto both the council of the arch~ diocese and Rome as the assistant of und, later, successor to Bishop O'Connor, This meeting was callea and was 1n session 1n this city nearly the whole day. Frequent atemnts, however, to gain admis- sion 1o the place of assembly wore sig nully unsuccessful. The clergymen who are in attendance decline to talk and it is mot likely that the action taken by the meeting will be known before today. The right exercised by the clergymen in question is not at all times demanded. But there have becen cases where it has been insisted upon aud accorded and with most satisfactory results. The result of the meeting will be awaited with interest.
