Two homeseeking excursions will
come to Nebraska this year, one on
August 30 and the other on Sept
ember II. 1t is a common practice
in every fresh and new settlement
to present highly colored induce
ments to eastern people who are
seeking to bettertheir condition, and
not unfrequently a severe penalty
is paid for excessive booming when
the deceived homeseeker pulls up
his stakes and moves away leaving
those who have expected to become
suddenly rich by inflated real estate
values to mourn and find fault with
the hard DEGREES of fate.
Nebraska passed beyond the ex-
perimental period many years ago.
Among the states westof the Miss
issippi it ranks as an old common
wealth. 1t is not a field that invites
the ADVENTURE. 1t offers no in
ducement to the devotees of happy
change. There is no such thing
as gambling upon the future Of the
state.
With this plain statement as an
introduction, The Bee ventures to
suggest that the thousands Of citi-
zens of Nebraska who have friends
in the east cannot better show in
terest in them than by asking them
to join one of these homeseeking
excursions and take a look at this
state, Investigating it's vast resour-
ces and estimating its unlimited
possibilities. 1t is a curious fact
that millions Of eastern people
whose material conditions could
hardly be worse than it is are
wholly Ignorant Of the o%pportuni-
ties here offered. If they had
heard OF these opportunities they
have imagined that some one was
trying to practice on their credu-
lily.
There is a vast amount of room
in Nebraska. There is ample
space for the farmer, the tradesman
and the manufacturer. It is not
necessary that the homeseeker
should be a mere tiller of the soil.
With each years development Of
the rich resources of the state a
wider field is open for every form
Of human activity.
Let the citizens of Nebraska
invite their eastern friends to Join
one of these homeseeking excur-
sions and pay them a visit. In
any event it can do no harm, and
perhaps it may effect a great i'm
provement in the condition of some
who are now struggling for exis-
tence in the thickly populated east.
Visitors are always welcomed here.

"THEcarefully prepared estimate
of the secretary of the interior
showed" says the indianapolis
Journal, "that over S144,O 900
would be needed during the next
fiscal year for pensions, but the
democratic house reduced the
amount nearly eleven million doll
ars." Either lot of pensions will
not be paid toward the close of the
next fiscal year OF a deficiency
will be created to be provided for
during the next session after the
presidential election. Will the
old soldiers vote for the candidate
Of a party that is guilty of such
an act?

The hue and cry of a few
Puny organs that Whitelaw Reid
is the enemy of organized labor is
simply political buncombedesigned
to weaken the republican ticket.
Some slight differences between
The Tribune and the typograph-
zeal union arose during Mr.. Reds
absence in Europe, but the diff
eulties were happily adjusted to
the satisfaction of all concerned
shortly after his arrival home.
This compaign will be fought up
on party principals, and mud-sling-
ing will carry no weight with fair
minded voters.

NEW YORK, Oct. 22.-The passengers on
the French steamer La Touraine, which
got in to-day, were glad to get ashore.
For nearly two DAYS they were im-
prisoned below decks while the vessel was
tossed about. up and down, hither aud
thither, by genuine cyclone.
Wednesday evening there came from the
south weird, roaring whistle that told Of
the approach of a cyclone. The captain
got the ships nose to the southwark TO re-
ceive the blow head on, and she ploughed
on at full speed
With roar the storm struck her. The
first shock of the wind came upon the port
bow. The wind.seemed to come from every
direction at once and the masts duivered.
The vessels head swung unsteadily to star
board and then back.
The captain saw that the vessel had en-
countered the edge OF cyclone. He or
dered her speed reduced again and again,
until the indicator showed only eight knots.
Toward midnight the storm turned the
ship about or nearly so. She was gotten
back speedily into the wind. but had to
fight for it. At o'clock the storm began
to abate, and by o'clock the steamer re-
sumed her course. At 2 o'clock on Thurs
day afternoon, a furious wind. though
not as strong as that Of the night
before, struck the vessel full In the
bow. She pitched forward into the
storm. and for eleven hours-until
o'clock on Friday morning-passed through
almost the same trial AS In the night before.
The waves poured over La TOuraine's
bows, and at times splashed nearly as high
as the top of the smokestacks, but the
captain feared them less than those that
chased across the vessels quarter the night
before. Toward midnight the storm abatsd

CAGLIARI, Oct. ga heavy storm has

Of Cagliari and great damage has been done
The lowlands are inundated and a number
Of persons are known to have been drowned.
One-third of the town OF Assemini has been
destroyed. The demolished houses were
poorly built brick structures. Two women
were drowned. 1t is estimated that not
less than 200 villagers OF San Sprete were
drowned.
The food swept through the village with
sudden fury, and in a moment the streets
became rivers that carried everything be-
fore them. Houses were whlrled through
the streets like corks, and the occupants did
not have an opportunity to save themselves.
Many we're asleep when the torrent came,
and men, women and children were
drowned before any effort could be made to
save them. Half of the houses Of the vii
lage were swept away. and the place is
isolated and access to it difficult.
Later reports say that sixty-three victims
bodies have been recovered. and searching
parties are actively prosecuting the work.
The town hall and 800 houses were de-
stroyed, and fully 100 persons were
drowned. The damage in the surrounding
country is immense. Troops were sent to
the scene to assist in the work of rescue.
