NCIENT HISTORY OF VALLEY COUNTY. Aboriginal Relies—An Incident of the Old Grasshopper Diya. NORTH LOUP, Neb., Feb. 21.—(Spclal.)- The extremely short herbage on the surface of the prairies at the present time makes it an exceptionally favorable season for the searclier after speclimens and curios. About a mile west of this city, on the narrow bench just above the flood level of Mira creek, is the site of an ancient aboriginal village and pottery, where a former race of men, not in- deed destitute of a certain degree of civiliza tion and culture, were wont to apply them- selves to the arts of peace as well as to prepare for war, for among the broken frag- ments of pottery to be found there may also be found the keen-cdged and deadly flints that tipped the arrows prepared for conflict with their fellow man as well as for the chase, and among the refuse cast out by the ancient ceramlc artist has been found masses of burned clay, the exact form of the interior of the hand, evidently produced by tightly grasping a small lump of wet clay, and 50 perfect has the outline of the interior of the hand been reproduced that the mark- ings of the very d-rmic papillae can be dis- tinctly traced. The material of the clay is a combination of loamy silt, sand and shells, and appears to be identical with that found in the tumuli of the so-called Mound Build- ers. It was probably derived from the bed of the stream, though p:rhaps mixed in con- formity with a formula which had the sanc- tion of the wisest of the craft, since the composition appears quite uniform. The frag- ments of finisheds pottery found show a number of different styles of ornamentation, some of them quite elaborate, showing that the soul of the anelent craftsman was not untouched with the sacred fire of art. The receipt of 240 gallons of syrup by the local relief committee, in connection with a batch of fancy straw hats and kid gloves re- cently received, places that body in shape to have something to feal out until something may be accomplished by the agent sent to Lincoln yesterday. This recalls a humorous incident “in_connection with the destitution of the “‘grasshopper times” in the old pioneer- ing days: A lot of misceffaneous supplies, clothing, etc., was received by an estimable lady, the wife of one of our old settlers, for storage and distribution, and at a very early hour the next morning, in fact before the good lady had time to exchange her morning slippers for the more substantial leather articles she was went to don later in the day, she.was visjtad by a.bost of eager and apparently not too scrupulous applicauts, who almost took tha, house by storm o long as anything was 15t ‘worth the taking, and when her impecunious guests had departed it was found that her best and only pair of shoes had departed with them.

Bosiness Lively at Bumboldt. HUMBOLDT, Neb., Feb. 21.—(Special.)— Humboldt can well boast of enjoying a good trade, for sh» certainly does. The streets aro well filled with farmers' teams every day, and they come loaded with wheat or hogs. The Farmers Elevator company, as well as Powers Bros. and 0. A. Cooper & Co., are running full time. The latter firm shipped six cars of flour, three cars of cattle and three of hogs last ovening. Mr. Cooper's mill has a capacity of 75 to 100 barrels of flour daily, and is of great advantage to Humboldt and vicinity. The water works are a complete success. The prople are taking the water in their dwellings as fast as the plumbers can lay the Dipes. . The mestings that have been held in the Christian church during the last four weeks by Evangelist Combes of Auburn have closed.

NEBRASKA STOCK BREEDERS State Asscoiation in Session at Lincoln Transaots Considerable Business, LATEST DEMAND OF CENTRAL MARKETS Omaha and Chieago Buyers Require More Lean on Their Veeves Than For- merly and Producers Are Feed- Ing Accordingly. LINCOLN, Feb. 21.—(Speclal)—The State Stock Breeders' assoclation was a trifie late in getting started this morning. The first paper on the program, “Need of Improved Dairy Cattle,”” was passed in the absence of 8. C. Bassett of Gibson. A. M. Troyer filled In the time with a useful talk on the “Ba anced Rations,” using the blackboard to fllus- trate the valus of scientific feed'ng. In the discussion that followed Mr. Whitmore of Valley said that practical feeders had discov- ered of late years that they must feed for the market, and Chicags, Omaha and other central markets now demand more lean on their beeveo than formerly. L B. Erfon of Omaha read a brief paper “Nebraska Live Stcck Statistis,” which prefaced the statement that he had procured his figures through the Agricultural depart ment at Wash'ngton and couldn’t vouch for thelr correctness. The report of January 1, 1805, showed that the total number of N braska live stock fs 3,966,604 head, with a total valuation of $66,893,679. 1In 1893 more than $20,000,000 were paid to the swine rafs- ers of this state, and the tctal value of the cattle and hogs shipped that year was $28,- 227,371, Statisties for 1804 will not fall far below this. The total valuation of Nebraska cattle is $13,760,330, or one-sixth of the total valuation of the lands on which they were raised Governor Furnas sald that Senator Watson had agreed to introduce an amendment to the revenue law .uaking it the duty of assessors to procure actual and full statistics from ecach farmer called upon, and aflixing a penalty for neglect to obtain Such informa- tion, At 2 o'clock this afternoon C. H. Ballinger of Lexington read his paper on “Sheep and Alfalfa.” The assoclation then adjourned to visit Prof. Peters at the experimental farm, where some interesting feeding experiments are in progress, This evening W. G. Whit- more of Valley read one of the best papers of the convention on the “Year of Drouth and its Lesson to Nebraska Farmers.” RELIC OF A POLITICAL RECEPTION. Previous to the offer of the State band to play at the reception to Governor Holcomb and the elected state officers gratuitously, Prof. Frank had some talk with J. V. Wolfe about recelving pay for the services of his musical aggregation. But when Prof. Irvine of the State band proposed to play for glory and the good of the cause Prof. Frank offered to duplicate the proposition. At all events both bands were in evidence at the reception and played alternately. But Frank sued Wolfe for $50 and Justice Spencer has just found for the defendant. The supreme court today heard an argu- ment by Judge Maxwell in the Carleton mur- der case on a motion for a rehearing. The date for Carleton’s execution is April 26. The case was submitted and a decision is looked for at an early day. on YORK COUNTY'S PLAN FOR KELIEF. Ten Thousand Dollars Given an Agent to Assist the Needy Farmers. YORK, Neb, Feb. 21.—(Special)—The matter relating to the relief of the needy farmers of this county for thelr spring plant- ing and for food wus at last disposed of by the Board of Supervisors of York county yes- terday evening. On Tuesday the members of the board expressed their sentiments as to the bond issue, but not till yesterday was any decided action taken in the matter. The board came to the decision that a general agent should be appointed for the aistribu- tion of grain and feed for the needy of this county, and fixed the bond of said agent at $10,000. Hon. T. W. Smith was appointed by the unanimous consent of the board. The county clerk will issue to him ten warrants on tho county treasurer of this county, each for $1,000, out of the general fund of the county. The regulations of the number of bushels of grain each should receive were fixed at the following: That no one person should receive more than forty bushels of oats or fifty bushels of corn, and that they should securo the payment of the samo by giving their notes dated March 15, drawing 10 per cent intcrest, and due on the 1st day of January, 1896. It is thought, however, that the number of the neeay of the county aro limited to a few, and that the greater portion of the $10,000 will not be used. The agent above appointed will be expected to look after tho collection of these notes. The action of the board has received general sanction throughout the county, as the senti- ment was strongly against the bond issue. The board adjourned last evening. County Judge A. C. Montgomery fssued a marriago license to Mr. George M. Norton and Miss Antonia Ciney, both of Gresham, this county. The wedding took place in Gresham last evening, and was a very pleas- ant affair. Mr. Norton is assistant cashier of the Gresham bank, and both are popular young people of that town, Tho case of Charles Green against Sheeks et al was tried in the district court yester- day.

ARAPAHOE'S COMMITTEE COMPLAINS, Furnns County F rmers Whose Noeds Are Noglocted by the State Commission. ARAPAHOR, Neb., Feb. 21.—(Speclal Tele gram)—Tho following communication was today sent out: ‘“The rellef committee at this place is about ready to throw up the sponge owing to lack of supplies. The com mitteo has fssued nearly all the funds di pensed here locally, until our citizens, hav- ing given all in their power, and the local supplies becoming exhausted and not being able to secure any further supplies from the state or county rellef assoclations, has filled its mission as far as possible. If the State Reliet assoclation cannot be prevailed upon to attend to our wants to even a very lim- ited amount all help for many of our de- serving farmers will cease. This will cer- tainly be a sad commentary on and return to the kindly disposed eastern people who have so liberally responded to our appeals for aid and succor. Many appeals have al- ready been made to President Nason, Sec- retary Ludden, Senator Rathbun and Rep- resentative Bee. But all these appeals seem to have been to no responsive ears; but if deafness in their case should not be from neglect their pardon 1s begged. But our citizens universally believe otherwise, and also they might relieve our wants if they were energetic in the matter. Investigation as to supplies sent to this section shows that the published report is grossly exaggerated and entirely out of proportion to the amount recelved. D. A. SKINNER, Chairman, “A. D.

GRATIFYING YEAR'S RECORD Omaha Loan and Building Association Re« views the Last Twolve Months, MIETING ANNUAL LAST NIGHT Heavy Withdrawals Made Without Loss te Elther Assoclation or Shareholders and A Stendy Galn Made—Keports of President and Secrotary. The twelfth annual holders of the Omaha Loan astoclation was held in the rotunda of The Bee bullding last evening. This belng an adjourned regular meeting the attendance was not as large as expected, nevertheless the proceedings imated and instructive. A number of ladies were present and evinced great Interest in the addresses and discus- slons The meeting was called to order by Presi- dent Loomis, who plunged fnto the business before him by reading the following address: At the annual mecting a year ago I called the attention of those present to the fact, as a matter for congratulation on the part of the members of this asso- meeting of the shares and Bullding as were | ciation, that, notwithstanding the low ebb institution of all businéss enterprises, the year had made a good then closing, ~ We some trying months that meeting, but respoets been heav twelve months inte meeting and this, our showing f hud passed through prior to the date of the strain has in some * upon us during the vening between that nd if the condition of our affairs was then a subject for congrat- ulation, it 18 much more so now. Husiness that was dull and times that were hard have been duller and harder, it possibl than they were before, and our members hiave not been different from other people who hav Kknown the absolute necessity of reac cash with which to pay ol debts and to mollify exucting o MEBTING WITHDRAWALS Under these circumstances we have been obliged to mect many demands for withdrawals ¢ money. ple who had od stock here for several months, or have found that, in the hour of their savings in the Omaha Loan and ' Building association were avaflable short notice, together with a liberal per- centage of profit. In other words, they, have been able to withdraw every ' dollar invested, with interest up to date, and have not been obliged to sacrifice profits on_ original investment, because they did ot allow their money to remain in the assoclation for o specified length of time, or because we were unable to pay. This is one of the advantags of our system, To illustrate the popu ity of our present plan, and to give you an flca of the pres- sure’ our trensury has had to stand, 1 de- sire to call your attention to the fact that in the year 1831 we paid to withdrawing stockholders $2 If hard work had rot been done might have found it difficult to meet this demand for money and at the same time to carn a fair rate crest for those sharcholders who re- in thes assoclation, As a matter however, have not only paid out this money, ave increased the number of in force from 3,409 a year 6! , thus mak- ing a net gain of 1,187 but we have issued in the s=a new shares to the number of These flgures need no comment from me. I simply desire to say that they are the result of the work of” few of our sharcholders. If the many would follow the e mple of the Tow our business would show an astonish= ing growth. PREFERS TO BE SAFE. have not been able, under existing mstances, to make our dividends quite as we have desired. We could them larger by dipping into our reserve fund, a_pracilco sometimes followed by historic financiers. We have preferred, however, to keep within —the strict lines of safety, and to consider the future as well as the present, and in doing this we have deemed it the' wisest polioy to declare only such dividends as could be pasd out of the profits actually made, It must also be borne in mind that in- terest rates are gradually becoming less instead of higher on the best real estat loans, as well as other classes of invest ments, Our directors feel that the success of our Institution depends upon the selec- tion of ‘its loans. Icor this reason our system of loaning money has been made ag attractive as possible to borrowers, 80 that we may fill none but the best applications. In determining what applications to ace cept, the ability and inclination of the splicant to pay his debts, as well as the acter of thé security offered, are care- fully considered. In carrying out these rulés we are obliged to make our loans on as reasonable n basis as others in the same line of business, but, while earnings may not be quite a$ high for the time being, we are surely on thie sufe side, and in_the long run will make more money. ‘Although~ we have been obliged to lose a number of members by withdrawals, we have, on the other hand, been particularly fortunate in having noné of our borrowin; meinbers default in their payments to sucl an extent as to render foreclosure neces- sary. Notwlithstanding the hard times and scarcity of money, the monthly dues are pald with great regularity and prompt- hess, and so far as the present condition of the association s concerned, it is in the best possible shape. We oive not a dollar of borrowed money, and have re- duced the ~utstanding certificates of indebt= edness from $0,500 to $1,300. While it is our aim to make our institus tion attractive to borrowers, the fact should not be lost sight of that it 1s the investing or saving class that we desire to cultivate. You can always find plenty of borrowers if you have money to loan. A man should not be encouraged to bor- Tow until he hay made such o start in the world as to be reasonably certain of being able to pay his loan. Our {nstitu- tion 15 essentially one to encourage habits of saving and of frugality, and cannot be recommended highly upon these lines, 1S CLEAR OF DEBT.
