ALUABLE LAND INVOLVED | Tmportent Litigation Growing Ont of South Dakota's Interest, DECISION TO BE RENDERED SOON dents Working Growth of the ustry—Flax praskn, Pemoeracs and Indep Jowntly to Hinder th Beet Sugar Culture i Wasnmixaros Bureav or Tne Bee, 518 PounteeNtin STREET, Wisnixatoy, D. (%, Feb. 12 At the Interior department toda; was & very important hearing beforo Assist- ant Attorney General Shields. It 1nvolves the title to 405 acres of land adjoining Rapid City, S. D., looated in school district 86, townskip 2, range 7. Tho case isentitled the “State of South Dakota against Lyman Lamb and W. H. Thompkins,” and has been before the land office at Rapid City and the commissioner of the gencral land office for four years or more. The land is worth #150 an acre or a total of $457,500. The history of the case shows that Lamb and Thompkins made spplica- tion to enter the landa under tho mining laws and thelr application was re- jected nt the local land office. They took an appeal, and it was allowed by the commis- sioner of the general land office. The state of South Dakota had a prior claim on the 1nand for school purposes, and contes’ed the right of Lamb and Thompkins to make entry. The entry was made prior to the admission of South Dakota to statchood but subsequent to the time when the land had been reserved by the governmen, for school purposes, Discussed the Title, The territory not having been admitted to statehood, the state had not, of course, ac- fuired titie, Judge Gooaykountz of Cham- verlain appeared for the stato today, and M., Duy of Rapid City n‘mnlmd in the hearing for the entrymen. In his argument Judge Goodykountz said that the declaraiory swatement and application to purchase made by Lamb and 'I"Immpk!us were not war- rantea by the developments made by them prior to the application to entry; that the application to purchase stated that it was for their exclusive uso and benefit and not directly or indirectly for the benefit of any otber persons, when, as a matter of faot, tha levidenco showed that M. H. Day hada | capital of £75,000 and the A written contract with the claimants which ,provided for a share in the land in considera- ytion of which he was to furnish all the money necessary for prospecting. The law of 1he state forbade any such contract or sharing with others and the application states that no such contraot exists. Ho added that coal had not yet been dis- covered in such quantities as to make the land more valuable for mineral than for agricul- tural or for townsite purposes and the de- partment _has repeatodly held that the proof of the mineral character of the land must be based on the actual production of mioeral on the tract involved and that the mineral must exist in suficient quantities to make it valuable for mining and mineral pur- poses. Clalms of the Entrymen. Colonel Day in his presentation for the entrymen stated that the mere sinking of a hole und finding coal was all that was required 1n order to complete the require- menis of entymen who makes entries on mineral land;that as this apication was made yrior to the admissiou of the state the state of South Dakota at that time was not a party in interest. Assistant Attorney Snields said to Tue Bee correspondent that he would not render @ decision on the contest until the expiration of the ten days allowed for the filing of a brief by Colonel Day. A great deal of intar- est is shown in the case thronghout the state of Sovth Dakota. Several Dakotans in the city were present today, among them Major Ruth, commissioner of school and public lands. It was the intention of Governor Mel- lette to uppear at the hearing in the interest of the state, but he arranged to bave the state represented by Judge (oodykountz. It is the opinion of officers in the Interior department who will not pass upon the case, but who underatand its merits, and also of & numoer of South Dakota citizens here, that tho stato must win tho case, although tho question of title will be hotly contested. i Opposed to Beet Sugar Interests, Doubtless it will be interesting news to the sugar beet manufacturers in Nebraska aud other states interested in the production_of various kinds of sugar to hear that the demo- crats from the northern states have enterod {nto un agreement tostand together and bring ‘mbout the repeal of the sugar bounty law. They are to work upon the grouud that the Bugar bounty only benefits the south, and that it is not only impracticable but vicious to attempt to build up the sugar by a bounty systom. They have refused to listen to the truthful statement of the fact thut the sugar interests of both France and Germany were built and are now maintained by bounties for both domestic consumption and exports. It is noticeable in this connec- tion that every represeatative of the alliance now in the house 1s working with the demo- crats and affording every possible encourage- ment in their raid upon expenditures, 1n- cluding the sugar bounty system, and thata mojority of them come from states which roduce sugar from beets, cano or the tree. t thus appears that the farmers have sent here representatives to work diregtly against their own interests. Nebraska's Flax Production, Between 1870 and 1830 the flaxseed pro- duction of Nebraska increased eighteenfold, snu that of Miunesota twenty-sevenfold, while South Dakota produced 'sixty-seven bushels of flaxseed in 1859 for every bushel raised in the corresponding portion of Da- Kota territory in 1870, On tho other hand, there was an enormous shrinkage in the flaxseed production of Indiana and Illinos, which stutes produced 45 per cont of tho total crop of 1879, but ouly one-half of 1 per cent of that of 1880, Of the 751 flax pro- aucing counties in the United States, Mower oounty, ota, produced tne largest amount of flaxseed—312,108 busl —and Le- nance county, Michigan, bad the highest yiold r nore—twenty-six and six-tenths busbels. n 1849 1,871 pounds of fiber were produced in the United States to every 100 bushels of flaxseed produced. In 1580 4,206 bushels of tiaxseed were produced to every 100 pounds of fiber. Differences Between McKelghan and Kem, Ropresentative McKeighan s reported to be endeavoring to do some smooth work with the democratic members of the house committee on public buildings ana grounds for the purpose of securing favorable action on the senate bill providing for a building at Hastivgs, This being a dewocratic and not an allisnce house, Mr. McKeighan is per- fectly willing to be recognized and known generally as a straight democrat in order Fresumubly to got the favor of the majority of the bouse. It is reported that he has shown a willingness to wortgage himself to the democrats for any amount of drafts in E‘_vmeut for @ full report on the Hastings utlding biil and even to sacrifice his fellow polleague, My, Kem, who has charge of the Nortolk bill, Mr. Kem doesn’t seem to ba as shrewd as Mr. McKeighan in this regard, preferring to remain and be known and recognized as an alliance man and in no respect as a democrat. The result is that Mr. Kem Is uot in & posi- tion to offer drafts upon either Elrly. The two members are dwelling together bere in apparant harmony on Delaware aveuue and It is improbable that Mr. Kem will ever recognize the secret power which may give MoKeighan success, but which does not yield himself w victory laneous, S.

Meday Secures Another Strong Financlal Institution for Omaha, The dispatch in yesterday’s paper an- nouncing the tiling of articles with the comp- troller at Washington for the Western National bank of Omaha, occasioned consid- erable comment among business men of the city, although it was generally known that such an enterprise was on foot. The incornorators are: H. H. Moday, former manager of the Hammond packing houseat South Omaha; Robert W. Patrick, Thomas Kilpatrick of the Kilpatrick-Koch Dry Goods company, C. F. Woeller of the Richardson Drug company and Simeon W. Croy. The interested parties were very advorse to being interviewed on the subject as it was claimed that the stock subscribed had only veen promised on certain conditions and they did not care to be quoted until all the detail were determined upon. It was learnea, however, that Mr. Meduy has been at work upon the matter for some tme, his proposition being thav if Omaha parties would subscribe a portion of the stock he would raise the balance among his friends in the east. 1t was proposed to start with not less than $200,000 ocapital stock, and if the subscriptions were liberal add anotber fifty or one hundred thousand to that amount. Mr. Madav left for the east some days ngo and has written that he has met with better success than he anticipated in securing stock subscriptions, and that enough stock had been taken to make the bank an assured fact. From reliable sources it islearned that stock was taken by parties in Detroit, which ‘was Mr. Meday’s old home, in Chicago and New York, and that about 360,000 was sub- scribed 1n Cleveland. — The Grippe Raging In Alabama. “La grippe 1s raging here and I find Chamberiain's cough remedy to bo a certain cure for 1t,” says W.

Mr. Johns ordercd a supply of the remedy to be shipped by express as quickly as possible. ‘Lhere is no question but this remedy is of great value in the treatment of the grip especially on account of its counteracting any tendency of the dlsease toward ¢ eumonia. It is also & prompt and certain care for the cough which usually follows an attack of grip. 25 and 50 cent bottles for sale by druggists. ————— Use Union soap.

Six new engine houses had been erected and cquipped at a cost of $50,000. The number of fire hydrauts had been increased from 1,163 to 1,192, Last year the expense of maiutaining the depariment was 806,817.55. For this year it was esti- wated at $115,000, Chief Seavey’s report stated that the police departinent cost the city $96, 142 during the year 1891, He was of the opinion that $95,000 would be sufficient to meet the ox- penses of 1892. He roported eighty-nine men on the foree and was of the opinion that the city shoula have a work house. ——— False Economy is practiced by many people, who buy infer- ior articles of food because cheaper than standard goods, Surely infants are entitled to the best food obtainable.

MODERN OUTCOME OF AN ANCIENT CUSTOM Freaks of Fancy and Fashion's Fads for the Day—Rtich in Design ggestive In Sentiment— Some Hoary History: ¥ oar of cighteen hundred and ninety-two, O ver and again your fate renew; U pon the oracles great and small, A ro wo ever placed one and all; Rivalry, a phantom, that comes so nigh K very maiden will her fortuno try: May the young yoar bonny and bold Y our heart's ideal relieve from tho cold; Valor is always due the knight A nd finds solitude far from bright; Lionely no more, for this day, a blessing E ntransingly breathes,sentiments refreshing Now gentle maid for onco I awaken— 'T' he last farewell with thee have taken; I from melancholy scenes now stray,— N 0 sorrow o'er my heart-strings pla; E ver love will cherish St. Valentino's day. AW St. Valentine's day, February 14, is still observed by considerable numbers of the young of both sexes, though not as generally as in years not long past. Like many of the pleasant customs of the hoary ages, it has been degraded by the vulgar, who seized upon the occasion to shower offensive prints. and insulting lines upon defenseless victims, The festival continues attractive to children and love-sick swains, even though it has fallen from its former high estate. Why symbols of love and friendship should bo chosen to commemorate St. Valentine, 1t is difficult to determine. History has it that Valentine was a priest of Rome in the third century, when life was anything buta sum- yl. It seems headvocated doctrines repugnant to the ruling powers, which made short work of his career by cutting off his head. He suffered martyrdom February 14, 20 A. D. The conuection between Cupid and this pood Christian prelate is vot alto- Rether clear, but explanations of it are not lacking. The most reasonable one is found in the spirit of con- ciliation that led the early Christian fathers to engraft pagan celebrations upon the simplicity of Christian worship, finding for Roman merrymakings inaugur- ated in honor of the gods a good reason for continuance in commemoration of the virth or death of newly canonized saints. The fes- tival of St. Valentine was originally, doubt- less, the festival of the Lupercalia. At all events one custom peculiar to the latter holi- aay is also & characteristio of the former— the love-lottery, a eurious ceremony in which young men drew from a box slips of parch- ment inscribed with maidens’ names, each bachelor devoting himseif for twelve months 10 the service of the young woman falling to his lot, being bound by oath to perform any deed she might desire aud to do homage to her charms in tender rhymes. In England the practice of choosing a val- entine existed at an earl; period and was continued vntil a_comparatively recent one, The manner of choosing differed slightly from the original method, however. The ballot-box occasionally played & part in it, but oftener the first gallant met on St. Valentine's morning was thereby marked out as her year's servant by the maid who had the good for- tune (or evil as the case might be) to pass his way. Among other favors gifts were expected by the *lady valentines,” as an old chronicle calls them, and Samuel Pepys openly re- joices in his diary that while his wife's val- entine has presented her with a half dozen pairs ot gloves, he has drawn a neighbor’s little daughter who will be content with a moro modest prosent. L Chance-chosen valentines suffered the fate of May poles, mummers, hobby horses, and the other sports and pastimes of England’s merry days. The establishment of the penny post system brought about the substitution of the rbyming letter of affection and com- pliment for tke more ancient form; aud it is that letter which 1s the prototype of the modern heart-and-dart, lave-and-dove, lace- paper and multi-colored construotion, adored by stationers and small foli alike, for widely difforent reasons that do not require explana- tion. Charles, duke of Orleans, who was taken prisoner at Agincourt and detained in England twenty-tive years, was the author of the earliest specimens of the written val- entine extant, and some of the most graceful. He has had imitators of all ranks and condi- tions, poets who possessed the pretty art of turning a rhythmical compliment with ease and spirit, and country clowns, forced to make the time-honored couplet about the rose ana violet, tell their honest love. On an old manuscript some one who guarded his nawe fealously, wrote years ago: On paper ourlously shaped. Scribblers tod In verses of e nes y' clop'd, o 4% ohimie therr antual court, 1, too, will swell the motiey throng And greet the all aaspicious d Whose privilege permits my son My love thus secret to convey. Herrick and Jay and Dayton have each paid a tribute to St. Valentine. Praed writes about the day airily and lightly, as he wrote about most, things, after this fashion : Apollo has peepoed through the shutter, And awanken'd the witty una fair; The bourding school belle's in a flutter, The two-penny post's in despair, The breath of the morning is flinging A magic on blossom and spray. And c0ckneys ana sparrows re singlng In chorus on Valentine's day. The observance of the day in England is rapidly declining. The report of the post- master general shows that in 1888 2,770,000 valentines passad through the post in Lon- don, but in 1890 the number declined to 320, Valentines that are likely 1o be very popu- lar are of silver sheet mounted upon & second silver sheet or satin design—the whole upon ola sheet foundation. Then thera is an- other of white lace paper on engraved litho- graph lift mounted on colored or gold ground, An endless variety of what are called ‘ispecialty’ valentines will be popular this season. These ioclude some rich designs, the retail price of which will be §5; those of fan shaped plush and paintod satin, with movable center wud a paluted ivorine piece with a rich silk and ribbon border, Among these uiore expensive urticles there 0 large shirred hearts with shirred satin corners; hand painted boat filled with roses; fringed satin bauner with shirred satin folds; emblematic form of letter V and horseshoe, paiuted; portiere effect with satin drapery and diamond pins; silk and plush butterfly, jewel eves, paiutéd, and a rich banner with painted ivorine fold with joweled center, The fan-shaped valentires are more elabo- rate, and, indeed, are dificult of attsinment without the aia of technical skill. They can be purchased in a variety of stylos, and are truly elegant tritles, 1t is wadeof either fine cardboard or cellu- loid and is strung with ribbons, which are visible ouly on the under sice. The slits through which they are passed are very nar- row and the painting hides thew from all but initiated eyes.

Judge Thurston Gives His Opinion of Editor Dana’s Attack—Political Notes. “This charge made against the military record of a brave soldier and an upright citi- zen, is news to we,” said Judge John M. Thurston toa representative of Tur Beg, after the former had read the correspondence affouting the military standing of General R. A. Alger, published in the tolegraphic col- umns of Tue Bre yesterday “‘General Alger’s prompt denial of the Sun editorial meets the question fairlv and with- out equivocation. For twenty-five years General Alzer has been prominenily before the public, he has been honored with the highest position witliin the gift of the Grand Army of the Rspublit, and for a quarter of a century his rocord has been unsullied. He was a brave and gallant soldier during the war: he received wouuds in defense of the principles of his country, and since the close of the great conflict he has demeaned himself as the honorable,upright citizen that he is. i +'Still there is nothing extraordinary in the fact that General Cuistor made the report ac- credited to him. (enéeral Alger may have been sick, he may hava been absent from his post at the particulay. time alloged, and Gon- eral Custer, not being able to instantly locate bim, may have made the retura reputed to him'in the Sun odiforial. But the prompt and emphatic denial of General Alger ought to completely shatter what [ believe 1o be a canard, gotten up for.political purposes only. Instead of 1njuriug him in the eyes of the old soldiors it will have.the contrary effect, as such things usually do, and ‘make him stronger in the ranks of those with whom he fought. For his record is a gallant one, one that any man might be proud of, and his character is stainless.” “Do you _anticipate that General Alger will be a promment candidate before the convention at Minneapolis " “Ido not know anvthing about General Alger’s intentions in that matter. The presi- “fency has never been mentioned by us when together. Ido know ho is a warm friend of Mr. Blaine, but what Mr. Blaine's decision to withdraw his nume from tlhe contest may have upon the candidacy of (General Alger I cannot say. That will appear later.” ““What effect do you thinic the declination of Mr. Blaine will have upon the party?’ *“It will have the effect of nominating Mr. Harrison.

A SOLID PULLMAN VESTBULE FIRST CLASS TRAIN FROM ST. LOUIS TO NEW YORK, OVER THE VANDALIA AND PENN- SYLVANIA SHORT LINES. FRONT! The mandate of the traveling publie must bo obeyed and thereforo the Vandalia and Penn- sylvanin Lines agaln step to the front and present thelr compliments—being the first to offer a solid Passenger train from St. Louls to New York. Beginning with Monday, Kebruary 15th, 1802, the above named lines will run, every day fn the year, a tolid Pullman Vestibulo traln—composed of one Parlor smokling car, one first class passenger coach, one Pullman dining car and one Pullman sleeping car, from St, Louls at %10 a. m. to New York at 400 p. m. next day—through Indianapolis, Payton, Columbus, Pittsburgh, Harrisburg and Philadelphia.

I suffered night and day. and continued to grow worse not- withstanding all the medicine I had taken. I had almost given up my case as hopeiess when L was informed by a friend of Dr. Gee Wo, the Chinese doctor, and advised to go and see him in the hope of getting relief at least, if not a permanent cure for my trouble. I was slow in making up my mind to make such a radical change 10 my treatment, as [ knew a trial with the Chinese doc- or would bring me, but 1 finally con- luded to give him a tril, so I called at his office with that intentio 1 found the doctor a clever, entertaining gentle- man, thoroughly posted on my condi- tion, and it took only a very short tima to convinco me that he was the party I was 80 long in search of. He told me my case was curable, and that he could cure me, and prepared me a special treatment to suit my condition, and in two weeks I was =0 much better that I had the fullest confidence in the doctor’s ability and committed my cuse to his treatment. [ continued to grow batior rapidly and am now eatirely well. I owe my cure to Dr. C. Gee Wo, and am not ashamed to admit it. I adviso all who want relief from their troubles to callon Dr. C. Geo Wo, and they will be cured. For all particulars apply or write to MARTIN L. ANDERSON, 3121 Cuming St., Cmaha, Neb. DR. C.
