A Revolving Jail.

A peculiar feature of the Jail at Omaha
which marks it as different from any other
is that the cells are arranged in the form of
a great iron cylinder, which only revolves
about so that one cell is at the opening at
any one time This cylinder is three stories
high, there being ten cells on each floor.
Its weight is forty five tons, and this pom
derous weight is hung from above instead
of turning on track below. The strangest
part of the arrangement is that the great
cylinder can be turned by simple crank
with very little force, man with his left
hand moving it readily. When it is COM
plete it is the intention to have a little
water motor in the basement, and then by
simply moving lever the cylinder will be
set to rotating. 1t is suggested that when
there are prisoners who, it is feared, may
be trying to cut out, the cylinder can, by a
motor, be easily kept moving slowly all
night, so that the prisoners do not remain
long enough in one place to do any mischief,
or even to crawl out if they had made a
partial break. 1t seems that prisoners
have little chance for escape from the new
jail \ cage of iron bars completely sur
rounds the cylinder in which the cells are,
The entrance on each floor is guarded by
two doors. The officer standing outside
does not have to unlock even the first door,
but can swing the cylinder around until the
cell appears in which is the desired pris-
oner, and then by simple movement the
inner door is opened and the prisoner can
step out of his cell Then the officer can
open the other door and let the man out,
but the other prisoners are away beyond
any possible reach of the officer, and it is
impossible for them to make any break on
him while he is taking a man out or putting
one in. He can handle any number of
men in the same way, and they cannot
reach them until he chooses to let them.

Helps to Somebody.
From Good Housekeeping.

From Good housekeeping.
Press the finger against the upper lip,
close to the nostrils, to prevent a sneeze.
Strike clock, then put on the hands at
the hour struck, in order to have them cor
respond.
For cramp in the feet, press the hollow
of the foot against something hard and
round. A broom handle is the best thing.
Add to the covered brick used as
weight for holding door open, strip of
the covering sewed strongly to the sides
and raised just enough to admit the foot;
then lift it by the toes, and save stopping.
An aid in making buttonholes in gar
ment which trays badly is to take piece
of glue that has a smooth and rather thick
edge dip it slightly in hot water, and pass
lightly over the goods before cutting the
buttonholes. The result will be satisfac-
tory.
In putting away summer or winter
clothing for the season, label all packages
on the outside, and keep handy a memo
randum book with the contents of each
trunk, drawer or closet specified it will
prove a saver of time and vexation. One
often forgets just where bundle, or nit
tens, scarfs, etc, were put, especially if the
accustomed place has been changed.
Keep if you can closet for the sole use
of medicines and appliances for sickness or
accidents. A narrow, high chimney-side
closet answers the purpose admirably, with
shelves half way down, and deep drawers
to fill the remaining space. Bundles of
old, soft cotton and linen pieces, roll of
cotton batting and flannel, the rubber water
bag, medicine dropper, bed-pan, and feed
ing cup, and everything needed in an emer-
gency or long sickness. Have every vial
plainly labeled those marked poison place
always on the upper shelf. Keep the
whole under lock and key, the key beyond
the reach of children, but easily accessible
to older members of the family.

Finnish sleigh is extremely elastic, and you
almost feel as if there were springs under
you as you jolt along on the rough roads
cut through the heavy forests of fir, which
spread over the greater part of this Arctic
country. The scenery being monotonous,
in course of time the traveller may stretch
out in the bottom of the sleigh-for it is
twice his length-and 60 to sleep on the
reindeer skins or furs and rugs, or the
rough hay that he can get at any of the
farm houses as he passes. In fact, he will
hardly believe he is in an Arctic country
until the low Polar foothills of the Urals
are passed and Siberia is entered Arctic
Europe is the least Arctic of the three di-
visions noted.

A WINTER SONG.

A WINTER SONG.
The winds are shaking through the trees,
The snow is falling fast;
The brooks upon the mountain side
No longer DER the moses glide;
The laughing rill upon the hill
Under a spotless robe is STILL
The summer days have passed
The frost has clad the naked bush
The pine trees sigh and moan!
The winding road is lost in snow;
The birds of winter come and go,
The woods are dumb, the wild bees hum
No more from blooming flowers will come
Till winter days have flown
Sing out ringing roundelay
Be merry while ye may
What tho the winds are wild and cold
What tho the year is growing old
If hearts are warm and love is strong;
The moaning wind is summers song,
So love and laugh to-day!

Courage is always the greatest when
blended with meekness intellectual ability
is most admirable when it sparkles in the
setting of a modest self-distrust and never
does the human soul appear so strong as
when it foregoes revenge and dares to for
give an injury.

We often think we are of great impor-

accordingly. In general we are quite mis-
taken.-Jedn hageLo,c.

The tone of good company is marked by
the absence of personalities. Among we'll
informed persons there are plenty of topics
to discuss, without giving pain to anyone
without submitting to act the
part of butt, or of that poorer creature,

ed like il was being eaten off by the
hoppers. The trail was good during
the 100 miles mentioned above, but on
going farther they found stretch Of
about 800 yards where the trail could
scarcely be seen. Then the trail be-
came better, but for ten or eleven
miles it needed little work. Then
he struck across TO Grinnell's ranch
and down TO Buffalo. They were sur
prised at the number of people and
cattle that they found in that section
and they are an intelligent and well
disposed class Of people, Mr.. Donnell
thinks that $50 per mile on that ten or
eleven miles would surely put that road
in splendid shape for travel. That is
about the locality where the road from
Miles City would\strike. With such
favorable crossing il seems as though
our county commissioners could pre-
vail upon the commissioners of john
son county to put that road in shape so
as to easily reach this northern district.
Donnell drove back alone through the
Cheyenne camps on the Rosebud and
found the Indians well rmed, but not
making any angry demonstrations.

atisfactory to Fruit Dealers.

The freight department If the North
ern Pacific railroad company, under
date of July 25.h, have issued special
notice to freight agents informing
them that arrangements have been
made for transporting fruit from Port
land and local points on the o. r. &
n. Co.'S lines TO Bozeman ana points
east, in baggage cars on passenger
trains at $3.50 per one hundred pounds.
This is a dextrous cut under the pooled
rates of the two express companies, by
by which the Northern Pacific, who
are proprietors of the express company
OF that name, will be enabled TO con-
troll business without violation of the
pool agreement. OF course the fruit
will be carried as special freight In the
baggage car, but as it will make the
same time as express, shippers will
get all the benefits Of express time
and the Wells, Fargo company will be
prohibited by the pool agreement from
making cut to meet the rate. Under
this arrangement through express OF
the class mentioned must necessarily
fall off with both companies.

Logan Elected Senator.

John A. Logan was elected United
States Senator by the illinois legisla-
ture on Tuesday. r.
The contest over the senatorship has
been pending since the early part of
February. The Legislature at the out.
set was tie on joint ballot, 102 votes
or one more than either party con
trolled-being necessary to elec: SEN
ator. General Logan was the republi-
can caucus candidate. Congressman
Morrison, the democratic caucus oandi-
date, received 67 votes in caucus to 10
for Carter Harrison and scattering.
The balloting began February 10, hav-
ing been delayed by the inability of
the house 10 organize. When the joint
convention was to assemble the next
day the republicans marched out of the
house, and only the democratic senators
went TO the place of meeting. Several
times Gen'r Logan received the full
republican vote-l0i. Morrison did
not fare so well, aud il was not until
the 18th of May that he was able to
poll the full democratic vote. But as
tie republicans sat mute, the quorum
was broken, and after two ballots on
that day Morrison's name was with
drawn. Judge Lambert Tree was taken
up by the democrats, and polled their
full strength. Meanwhile the proceed.
iDgs have twice been brought to a
standstil by the hand of death. A re-
publican member died, but was sue
