Oxkoaref Aug, 3.—([Special to Tir Bee.) Antelope county lies in the northeastern part of the stato and in the same latitude as con- tral Towhana northern Illinois. It has the same ganeral charactoristics as to climate, surface, soil and productions as other oastern parts of the stato, Itis 30 miles long from north to south and 24 milos in width, and contains twenty-four tow ships of thirty.six sections each, or about %) acres of land. About one-third of the country is valley, one-third low rolls and undulations, and one- third quite rolling or hilly. Thero s vory little land too rough for cultivation, and none that.ia low and wet, except & faw small tracts along some of the streams. The valloys vary in width from a half a mile to four miles, The sofl is generally a dark loam from one to four feet deop, with a subsoil of loose, por- ous, yellowish clay. It hus all ths elements ot_fertility, and is capablo of producing any- thing that will grow in temperate latitudes. The central and southern parts of the coun- ty are watered by the Elkhorn river, a clear, rapid stream thirty yards wido, and by twelve or thirteen tributaries. The Elkhorn and two of its iributaries, Cedar creek aud Clearwater, furnish several line water pow- ers, The loading productions are corn, cattlo and hogs, but all the grains, grassos and fruits that aro raised in the same latitude farther east, have beon raised with uniform success here. About half the land in cultiva- tion is planted annually to corn. Oats and wheat rank next in about equul proportion, while barley, flax and rye are raised to quita an extent, Sinco the first settlement of tho county oighteen years ago, there has been great uni- formity in the vield of crops, owing to the P‘fi‘ s0il, equablé climate and geuerous rain- al The olevation of this part of the state above sea level is about seventeen hundred feot, which insures a dry, bracing atmos phere, freo from fogs and iniasma. Many in valids from the eastern states have been en tirely cured or greatly benefited by a re- moval to this pact of Nebraska; espacially those suffering from lung or throat difricul- ties and those predisposed to malarial dis- euses, The rainfall, which is from thicty to thirty- oight inches annually, is ample to insure the growth and maturity of all kinds of crops. The fall of snow is moderate, somstimes fur- nishing a month or six weeks of fair sleigh- ing, but oftener from one to two weeks, if any. 'he wind blows here, just as it does in Towa, Illois, Michigan, and othor level states. There has nover been a eyclone in Nebraska, whereas states further east have been scarcely freo fron thom for a single soason. Another fact that applies equally as well to all northeastern Nebraska, 'is that there never has been since the settlement of this part of the state a failure of any crop, eitber from drought or excessive rains, The I'remont, Elkhorn and Missouri Val- ley railroad traverses the county from south- cast to northwest, dividing it into two near- ly equal varts, with a branch running south from Oakdale. The wheat. beef cattle and hogs shipped from the county aro sent either o Chicago or Omaha, - but the corn, oats, vegetablos flour, medl, ground feea, poultry and dairy products are sent west to the cattle ranges, government posts and minas. Owing to this westorn demavd, many things that farmers have to sell bring bettor prices here than they do farther east; and this wostérn markot is becoming better every year. Oakdale's Plen. Oakdale is the chief town in tho southern part of Antelppe county. It is situated at the junclion of the main line of thé Fremont, Klkhorn & Missouri Valley railroad with the Albion branch, and has at present railroad connections east,west and south, and will doubtless during the year 1891 have rail connections with Yankton and other points north, amended articles of incorporation having boen filed with the county clerk and secrotary of state to that effect within the last thirty days. There are also prospects of other railroad extensions to this place in the near future. . It is the end of a division on the Albion road, and the railroad company has estab- lisned a round-house, a large coal depot, & repair shop, a 2,000 barrol water tank, a hard col dopot, an ice house, and threo miles of sidetrack. It has two of the best water powers in the country, only one of which is at present util- Ized. It is surrounded by the finest agricul- tural region'in the county, and is approached by good wagon roads. It has a graded public school omploying four teachers, It _has a large, handsomeo public school building. It has a sominary in process of construc- tion. It has five churches and three resident ministers, It has a Grand Army of the Republic post, an Oddfellows society and encampment, with a very fine hall; a Good Templars’ lodge, an Ancient Order 'of United Workmen soc ty, a Woman’s Christian Tempcrance Union or- ganization and an oxcellent cornet band. Tt has a largo public hall. It has the largest and bost grain elevator in the county. 1t has two yards for shipping stock, one of them being much the larest in this'part of the state, There aro two extensive cattle feeding es- tablishments near town which create com- petition in the corn and hay market, thus making Oakdale one of the best markets for these commodtties iu north Nebraska, ‘The mull power is now partly util flouring mill, full voller process, pacity of 150 barrels, and at & cost of $25,- 000 exclusive of the site. ‘The population of tho town is about nine nundred, and while most of the common tranchos of business are fairly woll repre sented, thers are good openings und room for more. bused iis Family. Mose Elliott 1s a stone cutter who worked on the city hall. Last night ho put in par} of his “eight hours for recreation, amuse- ment and_fnstruction” gotting drink und abusing his wife and sick children. His “eight hours for sloep” were passed in jail, A Directory of Emotions, The latest apostle of the beautiful in dress has arisen to promulgate a new code of ethies, says the New York Sun, by which: & woman’s gowns shall bo a chronicle owdress directory of her emo- tions and conditions. The holy and dig- nified estaté of matrimony shall find ex- pression ina black garment, while love, its precursor, too often only its precur- sor, is robad in a garment upon which the torch of hymen starts from poppies in crimson and gold, symbolical of love’s hyp- notism. Hoalth wears-a gown of Nilo groon with a border of lotus flowers. Life is gurbed in white crepe with silver antique traceries. Death is glorified in garments wherein the golden light of the sun and the siiver sheen of the moonbeams! minglo in the mysterious symbol of death. Fancy scolding a woman (gotten up insuch occult, murkly, mystic things) about the coal bill, or wsking her whers in thunder she has put your col- lars and clean stockings.

It was the diffieulty that has arisen over the principalship of the Central Park school. Mr. Fronch appoarod befora the committee to prosent the complaints that wore to be urged ngainst Miss Keed as principal of the school About twenty of Miss Reod's friouds were l!N.!mlL to refute the charges, and the meet- ing proved to be very unimated Some of the charges were very extraor dinary and provoked considerablo amuse- ment. In one instance the principal was charged with having told ono boy that tio was “liko his dad, o horse jockey and a gambler.” In another tho accusers allewod that Miss eed had told oue boy that his toud was 50 red that be should not stand near the other pupils for he might set them on firo; that sho told another boy that ho was a fool; that she had® jerked anotnher boy out of the line while the ('hl\ iren ere marching, and kicked him in tho back. “Then as & matter of varioty. tho principal was ropresonted as baving tied ouo lad to a seat for a wholo weok. She had informed another young hopeful that sho would “kuock his in. Ternal hoad off." All the above allegations were quite sie- psafully refuted by tho testimony of pupils teachers in tho Central Park schiool, and the committee appeared to be pretty well convinced that the charzes had boen, to n very large extont, the result of personal spite brought ubout by the unruliness of two or threo boys who happen to have indulgent parents, COUNSELED TOGETHER, Members of the Real Estate Owners® Advisory Board in Session. Thero was a meoting of tho advisory board of the Real Fistate Owners' association last night at which several very important mat- ters wore discussed. Colonel Scott was prosont and was askod to stato something about nis exparience in pro senting the claims of Omaha upon the next national republican convention before the na tional committee. Colonal Scott said ho had been very cordially received by the national committee at Washington, and he considered that Omaha bad a very good show to sceure the convention if the proper effort was made. Dr. Mercer, Mr. G. W. Lintger. Mr. J. S. Reed, Cadet’ Taylor, Mr. D.J. O'Donabue, Mr. W. J. Connell and others spoke ecur: nestly upon the subject and tho consensus of opinion scemed to bo that Omaha should push richt ahead and do everytning possible to secure tho convontion. Tho meeting then took up a discussion of the alleged disappearance of the $150,000 paid into tho treasury of Douglas county as a sinking fund for tha purpose of meeting the bonds voted to aid the construction of tho Union Pacific bridge in 1566, Thecommitteo appointed to look into this matter submitted a partial roport and was continued to mako further investigation before formal wction should be taken. Some remarks were made about tho smelter strike, but on account of the meeting ap- pointed for today at Dr. Miller's oftice no formal action was decmed necessary or expedient. e CHANCE FOR I'TLEMENT. Probability of the Adjust Smelting Works Diflicultics. There appoars to bo some prospect of an early settlement of tho difficulty between tho employees of the smelting works and the company. Dr. Georgo L. Miller has inaugurated the movement that may eventually bring about an amicablo settlement of the difiiculty. The statement was made last night at a late hour to a reporter for Tine Bee by an nfluential business man that Dr. Milor and a fow other gentlemen had callod upon Mr. Barton yesterday, and aftor dis- ug tho situation thoroughly they succeeded in getting Mr. Barton to promise that ho would make somo conces- sions if the employes would ao tho same. It was then “agreed that another meeting should be held today at 10 o’clock at Dr. Miller's oftice at which a committee from tho employes, a dozen of tho prominent business mon of tho city and Mr. Barton will attempt to arrive at a satisfactory adajustment of the causes which led to_the strike and shutdown at the Omaha and Grant smelting works. e OMAMA IN BRIEF.

The details of the story were mado public today at tho inquost over the remains.
