THE argument submitted by Attorney
General Garland to the Supreme Court of
the United States in the Chinese habeas
corpus case, is conclusive. 1t hinges after
all upon one point, one that we submit is
unanswerable in reason whatever the at
torneys for the Chinese procurers may
reply-because the attempt to enter the
country is made by those of whom certi-
icate OF right to land is demanded, but
which is not produced, it does not follow
that they are restrained of their liberty.
That is to say, refusal to permit an alien
to enter the country is not deprivation of
liberty. If this is not law, it is at least
sound reason.
A WRITER in the North American Reviep,
among other terse sentences, describes the
Presidents tariff scheme as a proposal to
open free of charge the greatest and most
profitable market in the world to foreign
ers, who are to bear no part in the cost Of
managing free institutions.

union man! heard a great many secession
and copperhead speakers both north and
south at the outbreak Of the war, but never
in all ny life did l hear such venomous, ma
lignant and reasonable talk as 1 heard Has
call make IN the first speech he delivered at
the old Douglas county court house. He de-
nounced Lincoln and the great leaders of the
union in terms that were SO shocking and de-
PRAYED that l could not bear to listen to
them, and left the hall with many others
indignant and disguised.
THE STORY CONFIRMED.
A very intimate and close friend Of Has
calls, whose name is withheld by request,
was next seen,and told the story of Hascall's
life in Kansas and Missouri. It confirmed
the story of his career as a pro slavery
border rufian leader. 1t told Of the fight
into Missouri, and the residence there for
SIX months. The bushwhackers Of Missouri
were in Atchison constantly, and Hascall is
said to have been with them night after
night, neglecting his wife and home. The
night Hartman was shot 1t is claimed that
Hartman was in the party, but whether he
himself shot the man is not known. The
statement that Hascall, with other treason
p~lotters, were driven out Of Atchison finally
by the union element Of the population, was
also confirmed, and his denial refuted
beyond a reasonable doubt.

Uncle Sandy.

Detroit Free Press: It was when
winter was just closing in, and the frost
was making the planks crack and snap,
that l met Uncle Sandy. He was OF
real old African stock, with a smile al
ways covering his face. and he laughed
heartily as he stopped me and said:

He held up one foot and then the
other. l could see his black toes peep
ing through the holes. I gave him
some money to get repairs made, and 10
was three months before I ran across
him again. Then I net him one biting
cold day. He vas without an o~verc0at.
He remembered me, and he burst out

gratitude is ample recompense.

The %" Going to the Coast.

New York Times: 1t is stated that
some important extensions which the
Burlington company has long had in
contemplation will be carried out during
the coming year. The work would
have been begun long ago but for the
great strike last March. Now that the
Burlington has largely recovered from
the effects of that disturbance it is pre-
pairing to resume It's westward march
and push to completion its through
route to the Pacific coast. II reports
are to be believed it is the intention of
the company to build more miles of
railroad next year than in any one year
of its past history, and the extension Of
the Cheyenne branch to Fort Collins to
North Park, will be undertaken first
of all.
There are geographical reasons for
believing that the Burlington will
build its transcontinental line by way
OF Fort Collins The system covers
u large strip of country 400 or 500 miles
wide, due west, with three parallel
lines and many intersecting lines. The
southern parallel line runs to Denver,
the northern into Wyoming and is
known as the Broken Bow route, and
the central Is the new line that runs
from Holdredge, Neb., due west to
t,'oiiinS' Soi'yonu enon uuo "ooo in euo
direction of Fort Collins to within so
miles Of that point, where 1t takes a
sharp turn and runs northwesterly to
Cheyenne. From this turning point
preliminary surveys have been made to
Fort Collins andwest into the Poudre
Canon, and 50 this is believed by the
people of that region to be the chosen
route through THE Rocky mountains.
1t is limited that one OF the improve
ments to be made during the year will
be the changing of the grade OF the
Denver, Utah and Pacific to the stand
ard width and the extension of the line
~northward through Fort Collins to Lar
annie City.

"Ah! but who would Believe that q

Don't XIII tho Old Hens

When hens are shedding feathers they OF
ten stop laying and grow fat. Most people
consider fat a sign OF health. The fatten-
ing of moulting hens, however, as with
some people, produces debility rather than
health. Many of the worst cases of roup
are contracted, while the hens are moulting.
The food of moulting hens, If largely
vegetable is fat-forming, and not required
for growing feathers. Therefore corn-fed
mems get very fat They need more nitro
gen and phosphate elements in their food
when moulting, which If not supplied they
stop laying, because the growing feathers
have used all, and left no heterogeneous mat
ter to form eggs. At this season, killing
old hens and relying on young pulle,s is a
great mistake, where people have a few
hens and late pullets. Because, II properly
fed, the hens will have their new plumage
and lay well all winter; while the pullets
unless specially treated nay not commence
laying until spring, when high prices for
eggs nave fallen One-half. Again an old
hens egg will hatch a more vigorous chick

The above Is the experience OF many people In
using Sheridanis Powder. II fed to young pullets
now as directed, they will begin to lay before six
months old. Commence at once using Sneridan's
Powder. IL helps Old hens through moulin {, and

THE Superintendent of Schools in a

n day visited a school taught by Miss
B.. and in the course of the morning
said:
"Now. children. I wish you to take

effect that Mr.. A. came into the school
and wrote on the blackboard, ~ love a

1t has been ascertained that the diff
6culties experienced by aeronauts, due
to the rarefaction of the atmosphere,
begin only at an altitude of twenty
three thousand or tw~enty-four thousand
feet. This view seems supported by
the fact that in the Himalayas and the
Andes, heights Of about twenty thou.
sand feet have been on several occa-
sions reached without any inconveni-
ence. In such cases, however,
the ascent has always been
gradual. The i'll effects experienced in
balloons are possibly due to the sudden
ness of the change.

Professor r.. ". Raymond gave to
Mrs Ellen Richards. of the Massachu-
sets Institute Of Technology, some
somewhat broken specimens Of criogo-
mum ovalifolium which he had exhibi-
ted to the institute as a plant growing
In silver ore localities. Most Of them
had r~ose-colored blossoms. On n or
two the blossoms were yellow. Mrs.
Richards has since reported the inter-
esting results of chemical analysis.
In consequence OF the views above
suggested as to the possible significance
Of color, the pink flowed plants were
treated separately. The specimens
were cleaned as completely as possible
from earth; but this separation could
not be made perfect, because the earth
adhered In particles to the woolly
leaves, as was proved by the subsequent
detection in the ash Of scales Of bronze
mica. The plants lost 6 per cent. Of
moisture on drying at 1O0o G., and
yielded - per cent. of ash, OF which
4.S per cent. was soluble in acid. The
presence Of arsenic was q~ualitatlvely
proved In the plants, and the earth was
found to contain a considerable portion
Of it. but silver could not be found.
In the plants with yellow flowers ar.
senic was not found.
