1t has become habitual to look for and
read advertisements Sundays, and if any
merchant fails to supply the readers OF the
morning papers with literature of this kind
the public is disappointed.
Everybody has bargains to offer-on
paper-bargains too numerous to mention
for want of space-as it is generally put.
If, then, our patrons should, in the issue
Of this mornings News, not find our
looked-for advertisement, announcing the
sale of a few articles cheaper than Others,
we request them to bear IN mind that we
have an object in view, best known TO our
selves.

You must trust to the mer-

every regiment and brigade was com
manded by men since famous, including
Lew Wallace, John A. Logan and John
M. Thayer; while opposed to them were
such men as the present Governor Buck

son, of the Second Kentucky (Oonfederate);
Col. Cook, of the Thirty second Tennessee;
Maj Brown, Of the Twentieth Mississippi;
besides many other gallant southrons. 1t

survivors have since met in the halls of
congress or border state legislatures, and
for the most part with mutual courtesy
and respect.

Gen. Charles Cruft's brigade was hurried
to that point-in it were Col. Benjamin
II. Bristow and Col. (since GEM James
Shackleford--and was in turn broken.
Then Col Thayer's Nebraskans were
started that way; but met the enemy's
center on the ground just left by Gen.
Cruft. A desperate fight took place in
the brush, and Thayer's brigade won a
decided success. Col. Thayer came out
of the war a major general and was prom
inent in organizing his territory into a
state.
In 1867 Nebraska was admitted as a
state, and her first senators were Gen
Thayer and the Rev. Mr.. Upton, late a
chaplain in the army. After an honora-

Thayer devoted himself for some time to

McShane was born at New Lexing-

worked on a farm till 81 years of age and
obtained but meager education at the
country schools. In 1871 he went to
Wyoming and in three years acquired a
small competence in the cattle business.
In 1874 he located in Omaha, foresaw the
great future Of the city. invested his
means there when property was at its
lowest-following the great panic Of 1878
and now enjoys the rich rewards of his
faith. He is one Of the city's most active
business men, promoter Of the Union
stock yards, president Of the Stock bank
and dealer in real estate. In 1880 he was
elected to the lower house Of the legisla-
ture, in 1882 to the senate and reelected
