~
The warm weather has debiltating effect,
especially upon those who are within doors

overcome by taking Hoods Sarsaparilla,
which gives new life and strength to all
the functions of the body.
II could not sleep; had no appetite. I
took Hoods Sarsaparilla and soon began to
sleep soundly; could get up without that
tired and languid feeling; and my appetite

Strengthen the System

three peculiarities: LIST, the combination of
remedial agents; I'd, the proportion, Sd, the

Presbytery of Kearney,


This ecclesiastical body, representing
all of the great northwestern part of thu
state, held its annual fall meeting a
North Loup, beginning Tuesday evening
September 9th, and was opened with al
excellent sermon from the retiring mod
orator, Rev. j.. G. Tate, of Shelton.
Rev. George Williams, of Grand Island,
was chosen moderator for the present
session and Rev. A. Doremus, temporary
clerk. The meeting was one of unusual
interest and was more largely attended
than any similar meeting in the
history of the presbytery, there
being only two absenteos among
all the pastors throughout tie
whole bounds Of the Presbytery. Repre-
resentatives from the EIkhorn valley,
come out in full! force and report q rap.
idly growing Importance of that part CT
the state. Rev. Fred Wotsing, recent
pastor at Plum creek, preached AN able
sermon Of the second day Of the session,
which indicated a depth of scholarship
and efficient working ability as may war.
rant the Plum Greek people in congratu,
latjng themselves over their good fortune
i'll securing a man of such ability and
merit to be their leader in church work.
The rapid gowth in population along
the Ellihorn valley and in the outer por.
tions of the great northwest of Nebraska
suggests tho necessity of ensctiug a new
presidential organization to satisfy the
demands of that quarter. A popular
mass meeting waa held on "Wednesday
evening presided over by the State
| Superintendent OF Missions, Rev. Geo.
=. Crissman. Stirring addresses were
made by Rev. A. Dodmus, of O Neil
City, Roy. G. G. A. Hullhort, of Gibbon,
and George Williams, of Grand Island.
Everyone seemed enthused with the pro.
gross that was going on in our grand state
The State Superintendent of Missions,
Rev. Geo. L. Crissman, gave his annual
report of the condition of things through.
out the bounds of the state and this par
ticular Presbytery. Two new and fur.
ishing organizations had been effected,
the membership largely increased and a
general advance movement noted in ali
parts of the field. He reported the
spirit of church building to be stronger
than in any previous year, making the ex-
cess more than any other year since the
settlement of the state. The report was
heartily commended and fresh courage
was impaired to the noble band of toilers
who are laying the substantial
foundation stones in this new state.
As a town, North Loup is growing into
great Importance, and is beautifully locat.
ed at the junction of the Myra and Loup
valleys. The farm lands are eagerly
sought for, and command a high price,
and in a few years this portion of the
state will teem with a numerous popula.
ton. With the exception al a few hail
smitten places, tho crops indicate a large
prosperity, and if any one desires a good
home and make a profitable Investment,
he wants to 20 as early as possible, for
the delay will not DO great before all the
available locations viii DO occupied.

Its Superiority Over AL Other Mach,
ines of That Class.

One of honoyelfeature Of the STATE fai
was that Of tho display ON Friday of tn,
steam traction, self steering engines
several of which enlivened the machinor!
department during the week by thoi
workings and made their presence know
by the shrill blowing of whistle.
and the kissing sound of es
Gaping steam. OF these move
and useful machines, the first on the
grounds was that of Aultmau II Taylor,
which was the first to blow its whistle
and the frat inside the circlaon the trial,
We noticed, particularly, the ease with
which this engine was handled, the sim
plicity of the attachment of the traction
to the engine and the total absence of all
complications whatever, making it very
convenient to handle and manage.
The machinery part of this engine ran
much slower while making the same
rate of speed than did any of the Others
and that too without making any noise
whatever. And we noticed it was entire
ly under the control of the engineer, Mr..
j. o. Brown, who, by the way ,isono of the
best operators in the business and his SER
vices are highly appreciated by the firm in
Omaha as well as by the home factory.
Heis an adopt at handling machinery.
This remarkable machine was manufac.
tured at Mansfield, Ohio, by the cele-
brated Aultman & Taylor company, who
also manufacture the celebrated STARVED
Rooster Thresher, which ia
well known to every farmer in
Nebraska. The company's factory covers
forty acres of ground. The engine was ex-
hibited at this fair by Parlin, Orendortf q
Martin who are their general western
agents. The same firm are also general
western agents for
The Balm wagon,

Cultivators, Disc harrows and drills,

Omaha, is at the corner of Jones and

an elegant warehouse, to be completed
by November first, when The BEE will
more fully notice the progress of this en-
terprising firm.

Scott was mixed up in the Van Sickle de-
falcatlon in this county. This is not
true. Mr.. Scott was not, in any way
shape or manner, connected with the
Van Sickle dcfalcation, and any party,
mau or men who charge or even irsinuatc
this, do so uujustlY and wrongfully.
Editor Press Dear Sir:-lt is a well
known fact that the greater part Of Mr..
Van Sickle's defalcatiou did exist during
his second administration in the ]troasur
er's office. 1t is a well known fact that
Joseph Scott was deputy treasurer for
Mr.. Van Sickle during tho whole or
greater part of that administration, and
must have known the true condition Of
Buffalo countys finances. Did Mr..
Scott give the Taxpayers one word Of
warning in regard to the true state of af.
fairs during that administration. Not
that anyone knows of. Who were Mr..
SCOTS most ardent supporters at the late
state convention for land commissioner
Tho very men who were most closely al.
lied with MIR. Van Sickle, and who wore
tho principal cause of his defalcation.
There is a great deal of pcbuloua matter
surrounding Mr.. SCOTS deputyohip. The
people of Nebraska want a man for land
commissioner who, like Caesars wife,
lis above suspicion"

Pacihc's Proposed
Tour.

Notwithstanding that the drenchin.
ram OF the morning had DISCOURAGED HI,
public faith in the possibility of a gam
and churned the grounds into slpsb
fully 500 people gathered at st. Msrv's
Avenue park yesterday afternoon, and
the Union Paciics and st. Pauls met f,-
the fifth time.
Respite the unnayigable mire which
covered the field the game t%brouobopt
was the prettiest of the whole series.
Rockwell pitched with more than his
usual skill, and Bandle caught in his
old, reliable, perfect way. The boys
handled the mace in far better form than
during the past week and pounded Gal.
van very effectively. Until the fourth
inning the scores stood mutually blank.
Here by some good batting on the part
OF Vlsner, Dryer, Bandle ana Walsh the
W former were brought in. Again in
the seventh inning through Visner, the
local tally sheet was strengthened by one.
Eight consecutive blanks we're given the
guests and a shut-out seemed certain un.
til by a wild throw Of Sneed's Hengle was
given third and called in on Dealy's safe
single,
The game, although nearly errorleas,
was fraught with few brilliant PLAYS.
Sneed, in extenuation of his damaging
wild throw, did distinguish himself in a
fine running catch.
~Cavanaugh umpired, and from a mod.
est retiring gentleman, blossomed into a
nervy, fair and impartial Judge and over
ruler of demurrers-otherwise a ouasher
of kickers.
Following is the official score:
