NEBRASKA MATTERS.

To NEBRASKA WoMEN.-It is DESTROYS that
Nebraska women's work be well represented at
his New Orleans Worlds Exposition.
Through the efforts of some of our enterpris-
ing ladies we have very fair exhibit-consid-
ering the time given for collecting-consisting
mainly of knitting, needle and decorative
work, besides good culinary exhibit, but we
are deficient in lines of work i'm which am
sure many OF our Nebraska women are prof
cient, and by which they are enabled to sup
port themselves. DESTROYS of obtaining arti-
cles which represent such occupations, / make
this appeal to Nebraska women who are inter-
ested in the following lines of work, and ask
that models or samples be sent to nv address:
inventions, domestic or other. origin
ated by women: copy of every book pub
lshed or newspaper edited by women: edito-
rails, poems, or literary articles written by
women; type-writing, stenographic work, pen
manship, business cards; samples of silk, wool,
lax, or cotton grown by women; samples of
same spun or woven; samples of grain grown
by women.
Let Nebraska women interest themselves in
these things, thu aiding toward making the
Nebraska women's work a feature of the wo-
mans department as our state exhibit is of the
states display. Send by registered mail or ex-
press to my address,

Commissioner for Neb. Woman's Work,

But it is glad to note that efforts are being
made by the different societies looking toward
the erection Of edifices in keeping with the
enterprise and necessity of the city. The
Episcopal society have their plans and specifi-
cations already under consideration, while the
Baptist have every reason to know that their
church building is inadequate TO accommodate
its increasing attendance.
A number of journals are warning
their readers against a swindler who is travel
ing through the country purporting to sell the
right to a combined corn Smelling and feed

that he is not selling the sample machine, but
simply showing its good qualities. ''Still he
would take orders, but he must have certified
statement of what the farmer is worth before
he would dispose of the right" In about two
weeks the farmer learns to his sorrow that he

wants Receiver Lamb removed.

William G. WATSON has begun suit against
Alfred and John G. s. Harrison and Judge
Lamb-looking towards the removal of the latter
from his position as receiver Of the bank-and
for an execution on all the Harrison property to
secure the payments of Mr.. Wassons claims
against them. The irregularity alleged regarding
the receivershipis that Judge Lamb was ap-
pointed during the vacation of court which, was
illegal, that no summons was properly issued to
the various creditors, and that the receiver was
appointed in accordance with John c. S. Har-
rison's answer to Alfred Harrison's complaint.
The plaintiff has already taken Judgment against
the Harrisons for 81, OF and he. asks for an
order declaring that the appointment of Judge
Lamb was void and that his judgement be de.
clared lien on all the real estate and personal
property, and that Mr. Lamb be named as
trustee for the benefit of the plaintiff and
directed to hold so much of the property as will
be necessary to settle the judgement already
taken.

INDIANA's AGRICULTURAL PROSPECTS
Annual Report of the State BOard-In.
creased Values of Lands.

The thirty third annual report of the Indiana
State Board of Agriculture made its appearance
yesterday. 1t is volume of 633 pages, and in
cludes full reports of the proceedings Of all the
State agricultural and industrial meetings, to-
gether with the usual information about the fair
association. 1.-THE general Improvement within
the State, Secretary Heron says, during the
past year has been very gratifying perhaps
more 50 than any year in its history, especially
in road-making and tile drainage, of the latter
Of which there were 1880 miles laid last year.
and it is estimated millions of dollars have been
invested in open bitches. The increased value
of lands thereby is approximately, $2306 600,
and the increase in value of agricultural prod
ucts, as a result from drainage, 81, 900, 600 an
nually. When it is considered that only about
40 per cent. Of the entire of the State is in
cultivation, and the vast resources of COAL stone
and minerals scarcely developed yet the total
products of the State show footing up of $3l7,-
43l. 1868 the future of Indiana is certainly Of a
a golden brightness
The opinion is expressed that the raising of
live stock is more profitable, for the reason that
the prize Of meat is increasing, while grain is
decreasing in value. The lands increase in value
in the raising of live stock upon them, while
grain causes deterioration in fertility of the
soil

A FATAL FALL.
James Basey Falls or Leaps from a Third
Story Window with Fatal Effect.

James Basey, an old and we'll known sporting
man jumped from third-story window of the
Occidental Hotel yesterday at noon, and fell,
face downward, on the pavement below. injuring
himself fatally.
Twenty years ago Basey was prosperous
gambler in this city. For a long time he owned
the saloon now known as the Empire, and in
connection with it operated a faro game He
became quite wealthy, but when some restraints
were put upon gambling in Indianapolis, ten
years ago, he went to Chicago, and has since
lived there. Two years ago his wife died. His
luck changed, and, besides losing his money,
he lost his health. He began to show
evidences of mental arrangement, and week
ago he was brought to this city by his daughter,
Mrs. Henry G. RUSSELL who lives at No 577
North Illinois street, Monday afternoon he dis
appeared, and could not be found He walked
into the Occidental Hotel about midnight and
registered his name without any address He
was given a room on the third floor, and was
not seen afterwards until he was picked up from
the pavement, unconscious from the fatal in
juries he had received in falling He has al
ways been man of temperate habits, and dur
ing his prosperous days was very agreeable so
clally When he registered at the hotel the clerk
supposed that he was intoxicated, but this is
improbable, his strange conduct being due more
likely to the disordered state of his mind 1t is
doubtful if he had any attention of killing him
self. For several days he has imagined that
detectives were pursuing him, and that thieves
were trying to rob him. 1t is believed that he
ran out Of the window while trying to escape
from these imaginary pursurers In
falling his body struck the awning
street, and rolled from it, striking the stone
pavement. face downward. He was removed to
