She appears in good spirits, and evil
IDENTIFY has made up her mind to face the
| future with all the courage of her nature.
She says she could not break up her
home and 90 to live with others, as had
been widely telegraphed ; that she pre-
fers to remain among the scenes and
surroundings made sacred to her by her
husbands presence, and that she has
already determined to begin her new
struggle with life as soon as it dawned
upon her that the battle must be waged
alone. For that reasln she says that
she summoned all her energy to 81: at
the first meal after his death in her
usual place at the family table, and had
accomplished it, For this reason, too,
she received the members of the cabiset,
senators and other dignitaries from
Washington. She says she knew that
Mr.. Hendricks would have expected her
to put aside her grief and receive these
gentlemen just as she had done. She
would allow no personal considerations
to dispute with her the line ofduty as
she understoodi it.
Her account of the Viee-President's
death differs somewhat from that pub
lished. she saws that he was SO. much
better at 4 O'Clock on Wednesday after
noon, remarking that he was free from
pain, that she left him to see some par
ties awaiting her in the parlor below.
she descended quickly, and, after q CON
versation which lasted seyerd moments,
she went back, entering the room noise
lessly. Glancing at him she was over
ioyed at the apparent indications that he
was carefully sleeping. Fearing to
awaken him she moved cautiously about
the room, putting various articles in
their proper places, occasionally looking
at her husband and still assuring herself
that he was gathering rest and strength
in sleep. Several moments were thus
occupied, and she says now that he was
surely dead all this time. Finally she
approached the bedside and looked in
his face. It struck her then that the
expression was remarkably quiet one.
She lowered her ear to his face to detect
his breathing, if any. Not the slightest
indication could she discover She then
put her hand upon his forehead, and it
was cold. She then recognized death.
She was asked at this point If the shock
was not overwhelming. She answered
quickly: "No. It must have been the
almighty power Of God that sustained
me. Why / was not stricken down !
cannot tell" She summoned those VIII 0
were in the house and sent for DIR.
Thompson. The rest is known.

Model Poultry HOuse.

The building is about fourteen BY six
teen feet square, and the lower story Ia
used as a feed room and on each of Its
sides there are rows of boxes for nests.
This room is lighted, and in cold weather
can be closed tight, so that the fowls
have comfortable qnarters- The. hens,
geese, ducks and all ascend into the up
per story to roost, on vide, inclined
plane, with cleats matted across to pre-
vent slipping. Small chickens soon
learn TO ascend to the roost, where they
are safe from nocturnal marauders Ia
quest of poultry. The poles on which
the fowls roost extend the entire length
of the building, about one and 3 half
feet below the rafters; and they riss
one above the other like steps, from the
plates to the ridge of the roof. All the
droppings fall on the floor without
touching any OF the fowls on the poles
below. and there is sufficient room be-
meath the fowls to walk along and take
any fowl from either of the poles with.
out disturbing the others. Here. be-
meath the roost, is collected enough OF
the most choice hen manure to produce
fifty bushels of Indian corn, were it pro-
perly applied to the corn crop.

Dillon: Shortly after midnight last
night Moses Morrison, one ofthe pro-
puetors of the Nevada saloon in thls
town, was about closing the saloon for
the night. He invited several parties to
take a drink with him. Among the
crowd was gambler by the name Of
Hiram Perry, While the drinks were
being set up woman of the town. by
the name of frankie Riley, came in and
was invited by Morrison to join tbs
party and go to an oyster parlor few
doors away The woman started IN ad-
vance of the crowd, and the whole parry,
except Perry, went into the restaurant.
Morrison called for oysters for the
crowd, and soon after Perry came In and
sat at the table with Morrison. the wo-
man and others. Morrison went to the
clerks desk and paid for the oysters.
About the time Morrison turned from
the clerks desk Perry began TO use SoFne
abusive language toward Morrison and
the woman. Morrison stepped outside
the door, and Perry said: God d--n
you, have notion to kill you and her
and myself and end this trouble" and
as he spoke, drew large army pistol
and shot Morrison, the ball entering be-
low the left eye. Death was instantane-
Gus, Perry then turned and fred at the
woman, who was retreating through the
back door of the restaurant. His aim
was good, but someone saw the revolver
leveled in that direction and snatched
the woman aside. The ball shattered
her right arm. Perry then placed the
pistol to his own head and blew out his
brains. These are about the facts deve-
loped at the inquisition held to-day on
the bodies of the two men, Perry and
victim. DIR. Pickman amputated the
woman's arm, and she is not thought TO
be in danger of dying. She seems TO
have been the bone of contention. The
woman, jealousy and whisky played
their usual parts, and played them well.
Morrison was liked very much. Perry
was gambler. He has parents and
friends in Ogden. His remains viii be
sent to his parents.

UniOn Pacific TO Helena.

The telegram announcing that the
Union Pacific is about to extend its line,
the Utah Northern, from Butte to Hell
ena, in anticipation of the Northern Pa
cific's completion to that point, created
some talk in railroad circles yesterday.
The work will be difficult, but Gen.
Beam, who is reported as having the
contract, has experience in mountain
railroad building. and will prosecute the
work over the most feasible route. The
Union Parific was the first in that big
field, and did much to develop the coun-
try and make it what it is to-day-the
most promising mining region in Ameri-
ca or the world. The people in that
section are kindly disposed toward it,
and will accord it undoubtedly, every
privilege asked for. 1t is not strange,
therefore. that the management Of the
Union Pacific does not propose to let any
rival supersede it in its own tel ritory,
and it may be expected that every i'm
portant town and mining camp in the
territory will, sooner or later, be by the
road. With other lines encroaching
upon it from all parts and in all sections,
the Union Pacific finds its hands full,
and will spend much money next year
to protect itself and provide feeders for
its main line. The Improvements and
extensions promised for next year threat
en to incur more expense than has
been defraved for many years. The
preliminaries will be arranged and per-
fected during the winter, and every.
thing will be ready to begin operations
as soon as the ground hog says that
the world can move on.--0maha Her

eet for its laws and curage for its dsfepse
/ These are not the father of this practice
or the system whict sanctions it, which

our institutions. There should be no
relaxation in the firm but Just execution
of the law now in operation, and /
! should be glad to approve such further
discreet legislation as will rid the coun-
try of this blot upon its fame"
Devoted to the civil service question,
the President says: 81 am inclined to
think that there is no sentiment more
general in the minds of the people of
the country, that conviction of the cor
reetness of the principle upon which the
law enforcing civil service re orm is
based" He reiterates his former ex-
pressed views on the subject, and says:
Il venture to hope that we never shall
again be remitted to the system which
distributes public positions purely as a
reward for partisan service. n.ssAtees nav.
we'll be entertained whether our gov
eminent could survive the strain Of a
continuance Of the system which, upon
everv change of administration, inspires
an immense army of claimants for office
to lay seige to the patronage of the gov
ernment, engrossing the time of public
officers, and their opportunities spread
ing abroad the conta zion of their disap.
pointment and filling the air with the
tumult of their discomfort"
The functions of the Presidential
Office has caused public anxiety, and
just demand that recurrence of such a
condition of affairs should not be per-
mitted.
"In conclusion commend to the wise
care and thoughtful attention of Congress
the needs of the welfare OF an intelligent
nation. To subordinate these to the
narrow advantages of partisanship or
the accomplishu, ent of selfish aims is to
violate the peoples trust and betray the
peoples interest. But an individual
sense of responsibility on the part of
each of US in a stern determination to
perform our duty we'll, must give us
peace among those who have added in
their day and generation to the glory
and prosperity of our beloved land"
Silver coinage should be speedily
changed by the action of Congress. Pros.
