She Blooms Perennially.

We have lately had hard times in the
west. The rich have been compelled to
curtail expenses and the poor have often
suffered. Salaries Of young men have
gone gradually down until the articles
of fashion in the east find little sale
here. Everybody shows some evidence
of the hard times through which the
country has passed and out of which it
is just now emerging, with the excep-
ton Of the summer girl. Through all
the days of trial, when the scorching
winds wilted the stately cornstalk to an
early grave, she has been with us in all
her radiant glory. The growth Of the
puffs on her sleeves and shoulders are
apparently not affected by shrinking
purses; the size and quality of her head
gear have not diminished, and her sweet
smile bears no mark of pain. Trouble
slips off her sateen back without leaving
the slightest stain. Watch her course
and you will discover that nothing but
marriage faxes her; she cares nothing
for hard times.-Atchiso Globe.

SHORT OF CARS,
Nebraska Injured by the Dearth of Rail-

Nebraska Injured BY the Dearth of Rail-
way Cars.
OMAHA, Dec 4-For some time past
there have been fears that the railroads
operating in Nebraska would run short
of cars to move the enormous crops,
and the dreaded blockade appears to
be imminent
1--WE have just received notice from
eastern connections" said General
Freight Agent Crosby, of the Burling-
ton, that they will not receive any
more shipments of grain until further
notice. The Burlington is loading 300
cars day and could use 1000 if it had
them. II the present state of affairs
continues long the point will be reached
where it will be necessary to refuse
shipments that can bear delay"
Mr. j. O. Phillips, of the Missouri
Pacific, said:
''We are considerably behind the de-
mand for cars for moving corn and
coal, and are loading these commodi-
ties in stock cars Much of our rolling
stock is tied up in the south in the cot
ton trade and many cars are in the
east where the loading seems to be
slow"
The shortage on the Union Pacific
amounts to only 400 cars, mostly due
to eastern connections which have
been in the habit of loading cars for
east bound shipments that originate
near the Missouri river terminals of
the Union Pacific.

FALLING WALLS.
Horrible Accident to Laborers Clearing

Horrible Accident to Laborers Clearing
Away Debris at st. Paul.
ST. PAUL, Mimi, Dec. 5-The most
horrible accident that ever occurred in
St Paul took place shortly otter one
o'clock, when the center wall of the
west section OF the Shepard building,
recently occupied by Farwell. Ozmun
& Kirk, fell in, burying the workmen
beneath the ruins All the patrol
wagons in the city were at once sum-
moned and Chief Clark with the As
sistant Chief Martin attempted to
organize the laborers who were not
under the wall to get them to work re-
moving the dead and injured
The men were wild with excitement,
however, and it was long time before
more than half dozen could be in
duced to go to work. The others Fan
back and forth near the building shout
ing to each other and uttering impreca-
tions against the contractors or stood
gazing blankly at the ruins The
group that finally went to work, in
less than an hour had taken out ten
men, five of whom were killed and five
injured, one so severely that the physi-
clans said he would not live until he
reached the hospital
BY this time large gang had been
put to work and the work of removing
the debris went on rapidly.
Contractor Wilcox was taken out
dead and mangled beyond recognition.
His head was mashed to pulp
can be learned was that the wall,
which was much weakened by the fire,
became too heavy from the large
amount of debris removed from the
bottom and fell over of its own weight
The wall had appeared firm and gave
no signs of weakening up to the time
of the fall, when it came down in a
heap without seconds warning.
1t was sight never to be forgotten
as the dead aud injured were taken out
some of them crushed almost to pulp.
One of them, supposed to have been
sub-foreman, was taken out in his fur
coat, nothing but his feet and limbs be-
ing visible. His head and body ap-
peared to be crushed out of all shape.
There were men with all their limbs
broken, faces bruised and crushed out
of all alliance of humanity.
There were no groans or cries from
the injured as the poor fellows were
extricated from the ruins by their fell
low workmen. Not one had retained
consciousness The majority of the
men were under the south side of the
wall, and here the heaviest part of the
wall fell Only two were taken out
from the north side. The identified
dead are: Edward S. Wilcox, contract
or; Hans Hanson, Swede laborer;
Charles Katrinski, Pole laborer; George
Shapinski, laborer; Charles Larson;
John Adamski, IS years of age; Frank
Marcia.
The injured are John Warren, Thomas
