The peaceable city of Wellington was
visited by some burglars Tuesday night.
While the good people were enjoying rest
in the arms of Morpheus, two safes were
blown open and burglarized of their con-
tents. The Wellington mill Office was the
first entered. Here, 1t is supposed the bur-
glars secured the tools with which they
executed their crime. The mill safe was
cracked and three dollars taken there
from. They then went to the store of
Dubert and Corse, where they broke the
safe and were financially more successful.
Here over $500 changed hands. At Napo-
leon, on the same night, John Smiths
general merchandise store was entered
and several articles were taken. At all
three places entrance was obtained by
breaking a panel in the front door. 1t is
presumed that the same parties were i'm :
plIcated in both towns. As yet nc arrests
have been made, and no clue to the par
ties.
The young men of H~igginsyille are
noted for their gallantry and chivalry.
Their entertainments have always proven
most enjoyable. To their past record they
added another laurel, last Tuesday even
ing. Upon this OCCASION, they opened
wide the doors, and ladened well the ia
bles in the Arcade hotel, In honor Of their
young lady friends, of the @. v. club. At
an early hour the spacious parlors of the
Arcade were filed with interesting guests.
The program of he evening was varied
to the extent that each guest might be
pleasantly entertained. Games, cards and
dancing were engaged in. Promptly at
ten o'clock, the guests were invited into

the preparation of the banquet. Several
toasts were delivered. Prof. Walk err well

speech, which drew a fitting reply from

the Juniors all love her for her soulful
interest in them. She urged them, in her
address OF the afternoon, to consecrate
their best energies to the Masters work.
1t was a meeting of much good to all

committee a report was always ready at
the next meeting of the council. There
is no man in Lexington who will do
more for the city, in proportion to his
wealth, than John Taubman.
Mr.. James Robinson, son Of our fellow
townsman, Mr.. A.. V. Robinson, suffered
a serious accident, last Wednesday after
noon. He is a brakeman on the j. c., b.

the act OF climbing upon a o car, in
motion. When near the top of the car
his and slipped and he fell. Fortunately
the cars did not run over him. He fell
near the side of the track, and sustained
q powerful stroke from the cylinder OF
the engine, cutting a cash about three
inches long in his head. Besides this he
was bruised up pretty badly. lie was
brought home, Thursday morning, and
Is now under treatment and will perhaps
be confined to his room for a month.
This is the second time in six months
that Jim has been hurt. While coupling
cars at Myrick, last fall, he lost a finger.
About ten weeks ago, some six or seven
members OF the Board of Trade, met at
the council chamber, no one else came and
the meeting was adjourned for one week.
At the following meeting there were no
recruits, and adjournment was again tax

useless to comment upon the purposes OF
this movement. Suffice is to say that the
old council chamber that has been large
enough to accommodate the Board since

POPULIST FINA NCIAL VAGARIES.

The populists are a queer set.
Just now they are making a great
talk about Lincoln money. They
declare its excellence and want it
now. What change has come
over the spirit of their dream
since 1863. At that time many
of them did not want it and were
loud in denouncing 1t. 'sLincoln
currency" was a promise to pay;
simply this and nothing more.
Every one familiar with the cir
cumstances at that time, will re-
member that this so-called money,
deprecated as low as forty cents
on the dollar, and never rose to
par until specie payment was re-
sumed. This was accomplished
under a republican administration.
The populists argue that any com
modify, no matter what it's in
trinsic value, bearing upon its face
the government stamp. is money
and will pass as such. Now they
propose to print OH piece Of
paper "this is ten dollars" and
cause it to circulate. There is no
promise to pay upon the face of
this paper, either express or i'm
piled and business men will not
accept it in exchange for goods.
Thinking men must not listen to
this kind of nonsense for If put
into effect our currency will be
debased and our business inter
ests will be threatened with COM
plete ruin.

AS the time set for our conven-
tiOn draws near the political pot
boils livelier. Much comment is
heard about the action of certain
Lincoln county politicians in re-
gard to joint senator. By mutual
consent it seems it was agreed
that Lincoln should select joint
representative and Benton joint
senator. The former seems to
have spent but little time in
agreeing on who should be nomi-
mated at home, but TO have spent
much time and paper in making
the selection that should be left
to Benton. Brethren, this is not
the way to get along harmon1ously.
The republicans of old Benton
stand ready to support any man
you may choose for joint rep
resentative. Is it too much
to expect the same courtesy and
party fealty from you. We ven
ture to assert that it is probable
that not single letter has been
sent from a resident of this
county to one in Lincoln suggest
ing who to nominate there, yet
dozens such letters have been
sent here from Lincoln many Of
them insisting upon the nomina-
ton of certain man. We will
try to accommodate you, gentleman,
as near as is consistent with our
ideas of things.

WASHINGTON, March Goth, 1894

than member of Cleveland's cabi-
net" remarked a democrat widely
known in commercial circles to per-
sonal friend. "Why," he continued,
"they rarely know what he is going to
do about anything until his act is pub
licly announced. When he invites
them to express their opinions it is only
that he may ascertain how many of
them agree with him, and never with
the rernotest idea of accepting their
advice when they do not" The oc-
casion of these remarks was visit he
had paid to each member of the cabi-
net, all his personal friends, to find out
something definite about Mr.. Cleve-
lands intentions as to the Bland COIN
age bill. He was told by each of them
that while the matter had been discuss
ed at two cabinet meetings, Mr.. Cleve-
land had not told any of them what he
intended to do, but four of them be-
lieve that he will veto it, not so much
from anything he has said since the
bill passed congress as from his pre-
vlous utterances on the same subject
1t is also the general belief in congress
that he will veto the bill If he does,
look out for the biggest democratic
row yet seen.
The republican senators are hard at
work preparing themselves for the tar
if debate, which bsglns a week from
to-day. It is their purpose to point
out in their speeches the bad points in
the bill. which are SO numerous that
many of them have necessarily been
overlooked by the casual reader.

A Notable Acquisition.

Viggo Jacobsen, the pen artist,
yesterday subscribed to the oath of
fealty to the Republic of Hawaii.
Mr.. Jacobsen said that in recog-
nizing the Government he was
actuated by the course of France
and Great Britain.
The gentleman is a valuable
acquisition to the forces OF the
Republic, he is a tall, handsome
man of distinguished and correct
military bearing. He was a SOL
der in one of the continental wars.
At first Mr.. Jacobsen carried a
musket and a broad-axe. When
the Springfield rifles came out he
carried two of these, discarding the
broad-axe.
