NO. 2O85
FROM LINCOLN.
a Communication of Interest to
the East.

LINCOLN, NEB., March 5, 1888.
During your spell of bad weather
we were having warm, pleasant and
very acceptable weather. Last Mon
day the thermometer touched at zero.
and it has been much like Winter du-
ring all the week. Friday it com
menced to hail and it was very slip-
perry out of doors all day, but some
warmer on Saturday, and yesterday it
showed most of the day, and sleighing
was INDUCED in by some, though it was
not very cold
The churches were very we'll attend
ed, and that can be said of all the de-
nominations - good attendance at
church, though your beautiful city
takes the lead of most of cities of it's
size, in its many churches and church,
going people.
The Grand Army Boys have just had
their State Encampment, held in this
city last week, continuing in session
for three days. The Boys that donned
the blue in the trying days of our
country years long ago, are Just as
patriotic and devoted to their country
and flag as ever. While the Boys of
Post No. AZ, of your city, are full of
enthusiasm, yet the g. A. R. Boys out
here are brim full of it. I attended
their public camp fires, of which they
had service. and attended muster of
Farragut Post in Assembly Hall at the
State capital on Thursday evening,
and after muster reception was given
the Grand Army Boys and citizens by
the Governor, Attorney General,
Chancellor of the State University and
other dignitaries
Of course | joined with the rest and
went through with the ups and
domns," pump handle" business, and
then sat down and looked at the old
and young, grave and gay Army Boys
and citizens go through with the same
kind of work. After reception the as
sembly crowded at their camp fire, and
speeches and song intervened the time
I2tiIiie sdtiatff hearIy 12Iolclock5 The Order
in this State is in very flourisfing
condition, and every old soldier-now
resident of this State-formerly living
in most every State East is in favor of
pensions to all the Boys who wore the
blue and who are now unable to sup
port themselves by reason of old age,
or disabled by accident.
Your paper Complains Of mud and
! bad crossings, but this city can go one
ahead of you and be safe 1 read in
one of the morning journals some few
days ago, that the city authorities had
better look after some of the crossings,
on one of the principal streets, as III
was a violation of one of the U. S. laws
obstruction to navigation.
The State officers from the Governor
down are Grand Army Boys, and few
States can say that,
People are anxiously looking for
Spring, and the farmers are hoping for
good crops, as the past two years have
not been very good on account of dry
weather, and good harvest this year
will bless the husbandman and make
his heart rejoice.

The Secretary of the Treasury, in his
annual report, estimated that the Treas
'ury surplus would reach $4,000, 900
by the end of the present fiscal year.
1t is now stated at the Treasury De
partment that, owing to the heavy
receipts during the past few months,
the estimate then submitted will prove
to be too small and that the surplus at
the end of June, 1888, will probably
reach the sum of 1856, 900, 900.

Captain Noble Maxwell, who died in
Boston in September of last year, dis
posed by will of an estate valued at
$2,00O000, to twenty-six persons. A
probate of the will has been suspended
because Maine nephew declares that
Captain Maxwell was mistaken in his
own identity, and was an altogether
different Maxwell, and that the per-
sons he named as his relatives were
not related to him at ALL AS novelty,

The Case of Rev. oh. Schock.

The reports regarding Rev. d. H.
Schock attending dance, and which
were published in most of the metro
politan papers, were, we are pleased
to state, groundless. The originator,
who may possibly have thought him
self justified in circulating the report,
has done Mr.. Schock a very great in
jury and caused him considerable
annoyance. The Asbury Park Journal
says:-'The meddling of a Methodist
minister with an affair of which he
was enirely ignorant, his peurile dis
play of exaggeration and distorted in
ferences that border close to an ap-
pearance of malice, together with the
aid of a correspondent for city papers,
have combined to bring undeserved
reproaches upon the First M. E.
Church, its beloved pastor and Sun
Observation-Disclosures. The charge
of participating in, or sanctioning, a
dance is absolutely untrue, and the
statement that there is a feeling in the
church = except one of indignation
against the author of the contemplate
business-is equally false
The First NJ. E. Church, Of which
Rev. D. H. Schock is pastor, have
adopted the following
WHEREAS, The full three years. time
limit of the pastorate of Rev. D. H.
Schock will in few days expire,
when in the order of the church he
must be removed to another field of
labor, therefore
Resolred, That the Official Board of
the First M. E. Church, of. Asbury
Park, do hereby express our high ap-
probation of his manly worth Ghis
godly example, his devotion to the
interest of our new church enterprise,
and especially of his able and fearless
exposition of the word of Divine
truth, under which we have been fed
with the 'strong meat of the Word. !"
Progressive yet intensely loyal, "a
workman that need not to be ashamed" :"
we have sat under his ministry with
delight, and shall part with our beloved
pastor and his estimable wife and
family with profound regret, and with
fervent prayers that the Divine bles-
in the new field of labor to which they
may be assigned.
Following this there was some dis
cussion on recent publications reflect
ing upon the church, and the following
resolution was passed without dis
senting vote:
WAEREAs, Certain persons have
caused to be published in some of
the local papers over anonymous
signatures, certain communications
made up from hearsay report, which
articles have been the occasion of
highly sensational articles in several
of the New York and Philadelphia
papers, thereby doing great injustice
to our pastor, Rev. d. III. Schock,
and to our Sunday School Super
intendent, w. b. Ireland, therefore
Resolced, That we deprecate the use
of such methods as being unmanly,
unbrotherly, and SO far from accom-
J plishing any good whatever, can only
be promotive of strife and detrimental
to the interests of our Zion.

William, Emperor of Germany, was
born March %, 1897, and receiving the
education of a soldier took part in the
campaign of 1918 and 1875 against
France. In 1910 he was made Gov
ernor Of Pomerania, which post he
held until the revolution of 184S caused
him to take refugein England. When
the mind of his brother gave way, in
1S4S, he was made Regent, and being
elected to the Constitutional Assem-
bly,, took his seat, and was subse-
| quently made Commander-in-C Chief of
the Prussian army, which subdtled the
revolution in Baden.
In 1861 he succeeded to the crown of
Prussia, his brother dying without
issue. BY his firmness he succeeded
in subduing the feeling of revolution
existing in Germany, and by judicious
foreign wars detracted attention from
home affairs. Much against his incli-
nation he embarked on still more
ambitious scheme, and prepared to
obtain supremacy in Germany by force
of arms. Early in 1866 the scheme
was ripe for execution. A treaty of
alliance was concluded with Italy; an
utimatum sent to Austria, and an
immense army set in motion.
War was declared, and in campaign
of but a few weeks that power was
completely defeated, and compelled to
make humiliating treaty. In 1867
King William became head of the
North German Confederation, ,compos
ing twenty-five States The Franco
Prussian war resulted in complete
realization of Bismarck's schemes, and
on January 18th, 1871, King William
of Prussia, was proclaimed Emperor of
Germany.
The Emperor was married June II,
1899, to Princess Augusta, daughter of
Charles Fredrick, Grand Duke of
Weimar. They have two children,
Prince Frederick William and Princess
Louise Mary, born December Sd, 1888,
and married September Goth, 1885, to
Frederick William, Grand Duke of
Baden.

THE EMPEROR is DEAD.
William, King of Prussia and
Emperor Of Germany passes
away.

This grand old monarch and wonder
full ruler has at last yielded to death.
He died at the imperial palace at Ber-
lin Friday morning.
The Crown Prince was proclaimed
Emperor of Germany and King of
Prussia in the Reichstag by Prince
Bismarck, who made touching refer
ance to the dead Emperor. Hun
dreds of messages of coincidence were
received, and various legislative bod
les took official action The new En-
peror issued an ordinance relative to
the period of mourning, SO that there
is no regency. The Emperor and En-
press are to start from San Reno for
Berlin to day, and the journey is a
dangerous one. Preparations to re-
ceiva him are proceeding.
If the new German ruler assumes
the title of Frederick III as Emperor
of Germany as well as King Of Prussia,
there will be "a serious confusion in the
pages Of history, as there las already
been a Frederick III of Germany. He
reigned from 1440 to 1893, belonged to
the house Of Hapsburg, who still
reign in Austria, and enjoyed the sur
name of the Pacific. The name of
Frederick, however, has been borne
hitherto by but two kings of Prussia
Frederick being the elector of Brad
enburg who assumed the title of King
of Prussia in 1701, while Frederick II,
who reigned from 174O to 1886, is
known to history as Frederick the
Great.
The Empire embraces the following
States:
The Kingdoms of Prussia, Bavaria,
Wurtemburg and Saxony.
The Grand Duchies of Baden, Neck:
lenberg-Schwerin, Hesse, Oldenburg
Saxe-Weimer and Mecklenburg-Stre-
litz.
The Duchies of Brunswick, Sake

Gotha and SAKE Altenburg.

The legislative power of the Empire
is vested in the Bundesrath, which
consists of sixty-Swo members appoint

States; and the Reiehstag, which con-
