Nebraska CITY Wants the Road.

NEBRASKA CITY, Neb., Dec. IS.-TSpeoial
to THE BEE.l-At q special meeting of the
board Of trade last evening 1t was decided to
make a big effort toward inducing the Rock
Island TO build its road into Nebraska City.
A committee of rustlers was appointed to
present tine matter 10 the Rock Island PEG.
pie, and all financial aid to induce the road
to como was practically guaranteed. If
work and money will do it Nebraska City
will secu g that road.
An effort will also be made to nave a
branch Of the Missouri Pacific built from
this city to Talmage to connect with the
Crete branch of that road.
The board of trade also put Itself on rec
ord last night in an effort TO regulate news
papers in regard to what matter shall be
published. One member of the board, whose
work in behalf of the city could be summed
up IN an iota, succeeded IN getting "a motion
passed by the board consuming all news
papers and the Omaha papers in particular,
for publishing sensational news from Ne
braska City, as 1t would hurt the good name
Of the town. A committee was appointed to
consult with all the correspondents and
managers Of Omana papers and request the
suppression of sensational news from Me-
braska City. The truth of news sent from
this city was not questioned, but its sensa-
tional nature might hurt the city. A few
narrow minded members of the board even
went so far as TO threaten to stop the pa
pers'' IL the sensational news item ms were not
suppressed.

An AYnricinus Ghost.

WEST UNION, Ia, Dec. 1S.-TSpecial Tele-
gram to The BEE. Paul Hill, an old resi-
dent OF this place and over seventy years of
age, was called 10 Pennsylvania by the spirit
Of HIS former wife through a medium. TAX
ing this earthly partner with him they went
to Hope Bottom, wherever that may be. and
he was induced to leave his wife and live
with his spirit affinity. The medium got his
money, $1,000, his wife came back aud his
eyes are now opened to the fraud. He will
try to recover the money. 1t is said that his
wife's spirit wanted some apples, which he
purchased, and gave to the medium 200 bar
rels. Silk dresses and other material things
were offered the ghost and appropriated by
the woman of flesh until he is penniless. MIR.
Hill has been an ardent supporter of Chris
tian science until it is believed his mind is

Attempted Highway Robbery.

GRAND ISLAND, Neb., Dec. 1S.-lSpecial
Telegram to H BEE. IA dastardly at.
tempt at highway. robbery was made last
night upon an old German farmer named
Straub, living south of this place. A few
rods this side of tho Platte river bridge he
was suddenly assaulted by two tramps and
badly beaten. Exasperated at finding moth
ing of value about his person the tramps
drove off with the team, leaving him in the
road. A neighbor driving past an hour later
found him and took him to his home, where
his recovery is doubtful. The team was
found this morning near Phillips, the tramps
having evidently boarded the b. & NJ. train.
Owing to his cond ition MIR. Straub is unable
TO give any description of his assailants, and
they are by this time safe from pursuit.

Another Cry from Creighton.

CREIGHTON, Neb., Dec. lS-lSpecial to THE
BEE. I-George l.. Jameson Of Hay Springs
has received his commission as postmaster of
Creighton. The appointment of Mr.. Jane
son, who is not and never has been a citizen
here, has been accomplished against the in
dividual aud combined efforts of almost all
of the business men of the city. The re-
monstrance presented to Postmaster Gen.
eral WanamaKer, as mentioned in last Sat
urday mornings BEE, was but one of many
similar documents. In each case, however,
as in this, Congressman Dorsey, prompted
by one Brooks, a neighboring farmer, has
succeeded in liking the matter upn to his
own, If not TO the satisfaction of several
hundred patrons of the office.
The latest phase of the case appears in the
form OF q petition asking jameson to resign.
paper sets forth as reasons, or al least
as incentives for his so doing, that he has re.
ceivcd his commission at the hands of parties
who are well known enemies of this city;
that he Is not the choice of the patrons of the
office or of any portion of them, and that
there are other asplrants for the position
who are the choice of at least a part Of the
citizens. In u few hours the paper received
the almost unanimous signature of the bust
ness men. MIR. Jameson has failed as yet to
put in an appearance and it is not known
what action, if any, he Will take. The pre-
sentation of the petition will at least serve
the purpose of placing the gentleman strictly
upon his merits. The feeling is growing that
the action of Representative Dorsey in fore
ing upon the city as postmaster an Almost en-
tire stranger and non resident is an insult
aud an outrage.

nently disabled while assisting a

The Use of Coffee.

1t is asserted by men of high profess
sional ability that when the system
needs stimulant nothing equals u cup of
fresh coffee, Gays the Epicure. Those
who desire to rescue the drunkard from
his cups will find no better substitute
for spirits than strong, new-made cof-
fee, without milk or sugar. Two uuces
OF coffee, or one-eighth Of a pound, to
one pint of boiling water makes a first
class beverage, but the water must be
boiling, not merely hot. Bitterness
from boiling it too long.
Ii the coffee required for breakfast be
put In a graniteize kettle over night
and a pint of cold water poured over it,
it a be heated to the boiling point
and then sch back to prevent further
ebullition, when it will be found that,
while Its strength is extracted, its deli
cate aroma is preserved. AS our couu-
try consumes nearly ten pounds of coffee
per capita it is a pity not to have it
made In the best manner.
1t is asserted by those who have tried
1t that malaria and epidemics are
avoided by those who drink a cup of hot
coffee before v%enturing into the noun
tain air. Burned on hot Goals it is a
disinfectant for nsick room. BY some
of our best physicians it is considered a

in front Of the body was an ordinary shotgun
with Its butt resting in a barrel of bran,
