Timber in Europe.

Some European cOuntu $ are almost
as bad Oft, as lar as supply Ct timber is
concerned as is the United States. Ac-
cordlng to French agricultural Journal,
the oak of Sweden and Norway is
about exhausted, and they are compelled
TO buy their wood iu Poland and the
pine is being rapidly removed. The
forests Of Russia, along the shores of the
Baltic, IL Finland and in the Southern
provinces, have been SO rapidly thiuued
that the forest area of the empire is now
only one-tenth. The forests OF Germany
are well cared for, and there are now III

forest lover half OF which are IL Prussia
valued at about 500, 600, 600, and pro-
ducingau income annually of nearly $50
900, 600 The greatest effort Is made to
preserve the forests OF Germany and to
increase the forest acreage (about $780,
600 being annually expended in replant-
ing by the State and the imports exceed
the exports by over ,, 600 tons. There
are about 43, 900, 600 acres Of forest in

lessly cut her forests that she Is obliged
to buy most of her timber in Bosnia and

forests of Italy aud Spain are so situated
that they cannot reach q market when

The " Don't-You-Know Young Man.

One OF the most conspicuous objects
in certain circles Of society at the pres
ent time is the Don't you know young
man He ranks along with the youth
who carries his coat on his arm and
smokes cigarettes on the back platforms
Of street cars. If You meet him in the
morning he greets you by remarklng :;
''This is a fine day, don't you know. -
His asst salutatiOn at nights TO the effect
that he wishes You &" q very good even
ing don't you know. He goes down
on Third street Just before noon and tells
his broker 10 buy me some Wabash,
don't Won know. II matters not where
he goes, his "don't you know goes
with him. He beams down upon his
partner at the ball and as he places his
arm around the butterfly waist, re
marks I'm very fond of Waiting,
don't you know" He bows graciously
to his friend in the pew behind INN
after service. Is over on Sunday and
thinks 80 the sermon was rather tedious,
don't You know" When his fond parents
conclude It is about time he honors soci-
ETY. and some millionaire's daughter by
getting married he breaches the matter
to the girl in question by informing her
that ~ love you, don't you know.
Everybody knows him by his don't
you know, and those who are sensible
of the Iudicrous, as well as ridiculous,
have his expression for by-word and
get lots OF fun out of him, But he is
obllvious to it all. He deems his phrase
very neat and very fashionable and
would not drop it 8" for the world, don t
you know" So he dons his stitched
backed gloves, twirls his natty little
cane, and starts out every day to see " hat
is "going on down town, don't you
know He is one of the features of
the times and must be recognized IN any
summary of the oddities OF humanity
The "don't-you-know young man must
be heard to be appreciated, and he IS
sure to be appreciated, in one way or
another, when he is heard. For he Is a

Some new attractions in dress goods at Hulps
this week. 1t is a we'll known fact that Hull has
the best stock of dress goods in the city, and any
lady who wants a nice dress can find it there
We have been very successful in our dress goods
department this spring; and why? Because we
buy only good and desirable goods, such as are
wanted, and at reasonable price. We try to
suit our trade at home and are not after trade in
Nebraska. We are after home trade and that has
kept us busy this week. Hull is u retailer and
not jobber, which means goods to all at the
same price. Call in, reader, and see If what we
say is not true. 1t will cost you nothing to look
and remember we arc the largest exclusive dry
goods dealer in the city, keep nothing but dry
goods and carpets and sell them cheap.

There is no questioning the great success Of
the special sale at II. j. GILLEN's, previously an
nounced and now completing the second week.
In spite OF the planting season and broken
weather the sales have been large and patrons
we'll pleased. Skeptics who may have regarded
announcements OF this sale as advertising
schemes only have been most agreeably unde-
ceived on investigation, for they have found i'm.
mense stocks in all departments as advertised,
and prices amounting in many lines to genuine
slaughter of goods.
This sale is we'll worth the attention of every
buyer in this county, for the stock in all lines
of dry goods, shawls, notions and carpets is one
of the largest ever seen in the city land new
goods arriving daily, and the manner in which
a large part of them were bought enables this
house to make prices that may not be had again
for long time.
In addition is complete line of boots and
shoes and groceries, in all of which lines low
prices are marked feature.
All are requested to call and investigate on
their own account.

AT an early hour Tuesday morning, calls for
assistance were heard coming from the roadside
just below the steps leading up the south bluff.
Investigation by a gentleman who heard them
revealed horse and buggy literally stuck in the
bank OF clay and young man and two women,
'Tommy' and the "Chinamans wife," vainly
endeavoring to keep the buggy from topping
over on ito side. The strength of the newcomer
with that of the others was barely sufficient to
extrcate the parties from their uncomfortable
situation. The women are two well known char
acters and were considerably under the influence
OF liquor at the time, otherwise they would not
have fallen into the trouble, for one OF them, IL
is claimed by the young man, was doing the
driving, and in attempting to turn around drove

Batcheller 4 Doris Great Inter Ocean Show,
the Largest In America. at Ottawa, Tuesday,
Jule8.
The praiseworthy ambition OF Messrs Batchc-
Ter & Doris to have the largest. grandest and
most complete show in the world has been real.
lied in their present colossal aggregation OF me-
teOrlc lights Of the arena, the wonders OF nature
and denizens OF jungles, air and sea, as combin.
ed IN their circus, museum. aquarium and me-
nagere. In this combination Messrs Batcheller
Il Doris have enough talent to stock half dozen
circuses, and their daily outlay would have been
considered sufficient twenty years ago to run
show for month The performance In the tent
will be given in one ring only, Messrs Batcheller
Il Doris being satisfied from experience and OBJ.
servation that performances in more than one
ring ARE disappointing to the public and unsat-
isfactory to the performers, more acts will be
given, more novel ring features will be intro
duccd and greater show will be given than by
any other circus travelling. The menagcre ex.
hbtion is the finest ever seen in this country,
most OF the animals having arrived in this coun-
try this spring, being secured by Mr.. Doris
while abroad last winter in search Of novelties.
Among this vast collection Of animals, birds and
reptiles may be mentioned two cages OF per
forming lions and lionesses, six in number; two
huge lions, said to be the largest in this country;
two cubs, scarcely Il year old; Betsy, the Oldest
elephant in this country; leopards and panthers;
one pair of blouse boks, most curious and valua-
BILE of all animals; eight lion slayers, eleven
camels, one OF which is the largest ever seen
here; two immense sea lions, three zebras. sacred
hui ihay hnu
three dens o: performing snakes, fifty in number;
kangaroo and baby kangaroo, etc, twelve YAM
pres or flying foxes.
Another great feature of this show ia the most
wonderful Of all physical phenomenas, Miss Mil
lie Christine, the 1.-TWO Headed Nightingale"
whom Messrs. Batcheller K Doris secured at
salary Of SOS 900 for the season. IL is almost an
impossbility TO describe her, as she must be seen
to be thoroughly understood. She Is one person
with two heads, four arms and four legs. She
.'rg-. drrc"- aud r.nvrr-r- I'm live or six difrr.
euI languages, aud Is Without doubt the Eighth
Wonder OF the World" While abroad Mile
Christine appeared twice before Queen Victoria
and was presented by her majesty with magnih-
cent diamond necklace. Mile Christine, it must
be remembered, appears in the big show.
The street pageant made by Bachelor Il Doris
show is entirely original in conception and is
carried out on a scale of grandeur and magnih-
cence hitherto unseen. II introduces the hand
soonest woman in the world, the winner of Batch
eller & Doris &c., prize. In the pageant will
be magnificent tableaux cars, chariots, gilded
cages, bands OF music, colored Jubilee singers,
etc. Everywhere this street parade has been pro-
nounced by .he press and the Public as the finest
ever seen In this country.
