The statement referred to and which was
made at the recent Harvard dinner was not in
tended for publication. 1t was to the effect
that certain wealthy graduate who had no
heirs was having his will drawn up in favor Of
Harvard. As his death is not matter of sx-

the corporation should be informed Of the in
tended bequest

out in tears; hef silvery laugh changed
to low, wailing sobs. Pale-faced
misery snatched the roses from her
cheeks and planted in their stead her
own pallid hue. Sir, how can I go on?
At length the cruel law was appeased,
and this inotfensive citizen Except
that he had loved God and sought to-
obey Him) was released from prison
and dragged his weary feet to the.
happy home he had left a few short:
weeks before He met his neighbors
at the gate bearing coffin. He asked
no questions; his heart told him all.
No. not ALL He. knew not--he could 9.

bitter tears, of the weary watching and
waiting, of the appeals to God, that
! God for whom she had suffered so
much, for help in the hour Of her ex-
tremity, of baby's sickness and death. !
He could not know of these: But he
went with them to the quiet country
burial place and saw beside the open
grave a little mound with dirt freshly
. heaped upon in, and then he knew that
God had taken both his hearts idols
and he was left alone His grief was
too deep for tears. With staring eyes
he saw them lower the body Of his
young wife into the grave. He heard

it seemed as if they were falling upon
his heart. The work was done and
they left him with his dead, and then
he threw himself down between the
graves, with an arm across each little
mound, and the tears came in torrents,
and kept his heart from breaking.
| And then he sobbed his broken fare
we'll to his darlings and left Arkansas
forever. Left it, sir, as hundreds of
others are preparing to leave if this
general assembly fails to restore to
them the protection of their rights
under the constitution, national and
state. ss -. -
| On next Monday, at Malvern, six as
honest, good, and virtuous citizens as

bill may pass, and this one foul blot be
wiped from the escutcheon of our

An Investigation Will Amount
tO-NOthing. -

For years it has been asserted.
and in many instances charged.
that certain pine land spectators
were robbing and plundering the
State in the most outrageous man
ner, and there have been manv
broad intimations and in a few
cases direct accusations of COM
flicity and connivance on the part
of the government officials. How
much fact there is in these charges
OF gross fraud we do not know.
but expect to learn somewhat Of
the actual condition of affairs from
the complete and final report Of
the legislative investigation com
mlttee. 1t is suspicious fact,
that the. so-called pine land RING
has been a vicious and powerful
element in the politics of the State.
and on more than one occasion in
the past has shown that it is not
only powerful but INSCRIPTIONS.
The rapid accumulation of vast
wealth by timber. land spectators
is looked at as further evidence Of
jobbery, and it will be very singu-
lar if the investigation committee
does not discover glaring and
startling frauds. Norris @zyiba1,,e

Prof. McCleary has been absent
for a short time, but the interests
Of the Second district have not

It would seem that every man in
in the house Of representatives
was protectionist. Every man
that has any industry in his dis
trict that is now protected has
been to some member Of the ways
and means committee and insisted
that it still be protected. They all
want free trade in something that
will not affect them. When the late
Gen. Hancock said that the tariff
was a local issue he was getting
closer to the truth than some peo-
pie are aware Of. There is to be a.
monkey and parrot of a time.
when the tariff bill gets into the
house and is considered.

q. / have Just learned that the Mile
Laos settlers will have to run an
other gauntlet before they are left
undisturbed in possession of their
lands. 1t is claimed that they are
pine land grabbers and that they
are not entitled to the relief sought
in the Washburn resolution. Maj.
Baldwin has succeeded in having
the house committee on public
lands report favorable on the reso-
luton, but it is altogether proba-
Bile that further action will be de-
ferred until the regular session.

bill of many pages, which, is full

From the Unions Special Correspondent.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 3d. don't
know of any man who has come
out of the fight in the senate with
any more glory than Senator
Washburn. He has been consist
emily in favor of unconditional re-
peal from the first. There have
been times when the stupidity Of
Democratic leadership discouraged
him about getting early action, but
at the same time he insisted that
repeal must come because under
the existing conditions it was the
only thing to do. But Senator
Washburn has done more than to
be consistent repeater; he has
worked for the bill from the start,
and has insisted among his friends
that the only thing to do was to
pass the bill with as little delay as
possible. He was one of the first
men to point out the fallacy Of the
proposed Democratic compromise.
He showed that the proposition to
coin an alleged seignorage Of silver
in the treasury in order to make
up deficit was dishonesty, and if
a private individual should do the
same thing he would be sent to the
penitentiary for it. There may be
those who think that Senator
Washburn was not right in his sill
yer views. But the repeal of the
silver purchasing law was the only
thing to- do. I never did believe
unconditional repeal was possible
in the senate until the day before
the Democratic breakdown. I be-
l1eved that the solemn pledges
made by the Democrats to the sill
yer men would be lived up to.
But the Democrats went to pieces
and that of course ended the hard
fighting. Senator Washburn knew
them and felt sure they would be
compelled to weaken in time.
It might be proper to remark
just here that Grover Cleveland
seems to be something of boss
himself. The manner in which he
has broken the Democrats is some.
thing shameful. He wanted them
and he got them.
The other day the printing bill
was under consideration. Buck
Kilgore,- the celebrated kicker
voted against it. Boen of Mime
sofa rushed over to him and asked
why he voted against thu
| bill. Kilgore said that it was cas-
4 ier to vote against the bill than tt
explainlto his constituents why h
voted for the bill if anything dis
agreeable turned up in it. Boel
followed his lead and voted agains
the bill also.
Uncle Loren Fletcher has re
turned and shed the light of hi
countenance in the house after a.
absence Of several weeks. He
ready for the long pull next win
ter. Fletcher is a mighty goo
member for Minnesota.
My friend Kiefer will not b
able to get through a bill increas
ing the cost Of the st. Paul publ
building. It is an outrage, for 81
Paul is entitled to much bette
appropriation than has been made
Several cities, not nearly SO impol
tant as st. Paul, have receive

New Bridge Location.

The bridge question, as all former
questions of any Importance, has
caused a division Of opinion among
the people of Waco. Some advocate
one location, some another, all actu-
ated by sincere desire to place tho
Bird &c in tho most convenient loca-
uon for the greatest number of our
county and city people, in which is
more or less mixed desire to en-
hance the value of property they may
be fortunate or unfortunate enough to
own in close proximity to the loca-
.ion they advocate.
1t is gratifying, however, that there
is one point in which they can all
come together, and that is one of
CRATE Importance, considering that
the summer is far advanced and the
fall, with all its glowing promises is
almos. here, and that is, that now is
good time to see Egan about their
winter supply of coal.

over the window has inlaid upon it the
coat-of-arms of the state constructed

was dedicated June 20, when many of
the state officers and prominent citi-
zens were present and all united in
praise of their state building on the
exposition grounds
The Nebraska state building occu-
pies one of the most prominent posi-
tions among all the state buildings in
Jackson park 1t is located on cor
ner lot and faces south on magnifi-
cent boulevard which leads from fifty
seventh street. The west front borders
on small lagoon from the lake, and
its entrance is shaded by a few of the
forest trees which have been allowed
to stand in the old park, against the
continual strife for space
The building covers an area of 5000
square feet and is two stories high.
The style of architecture is of the
Corinthian order. On the east and
west fronts are wide porticos with
large white stone steps ON all sides,
which covers one third the length OF
the building. Each one is supported
by six massive columns twenty-five
feet high extending the height of both
stories to the cornice. over each por-
tico and resting on the columns is a
large gable, on line with the main
cornice, in the pcdiment Of which
brought out in basrelief is the Ne
braska state seal five feet in diameter
The whole of the exterior is covered
with staff made in such designs as tc
give the different treatments of stone
The cornice is five feet wide with pro
jections supported by medallions anc
is similar to the cornice of the Pantheon
of Rome.
