TO BE SETTLED AT LAST.
The Benson Land Surveys in Calffor-
mia to BE Made Satisfactory,

United States Attorney Carter at San
francisco, has received instructions to
compromise the Benson land cases, which
have been pending in the courts for a num-
Der of years.
Benson, with others, was accused of be-
longing to a land survey ring, and their
work clouded the title to about 5000. 900
acres of land scat red ell over the state.
Benson, through his position as United
States surveyor, obtained for his associ-
ates contracts for making surveys. The
government paid out about 100000 for
surveys which were reported completed,
but 1t was charged were only half done.
Commissioner Lamoreux of the general
land office says that these surveys were
made in "a, 'S5 and SO. When the matter
first b ought to the attention of the
government and charges of fraud made
Commissioner Sparks procured the bring
criminal prosecutions agains: the survey
ors. The cases have been pending in the
courts ever since. Finally a proposition
submitted by the bondsmen and found to
be satisfactory was agreed to. The bonds
men agree that the surveys shall be made
In a manner satisfactory to a land office
agent, and when the surveys are so COM
pleted the suits will be dismissed
Commissioner LamoreuX said il was a.
business proposition, the government get
ting the surveys and the bondsmen having

The COlum bian Relics.

Information was received at the Navy
Department late yesterday afternoon that
throws a new light on the matter of the
reception OF the officers and crew Of the
Detroit in Spain, and makes it. appear that
the opinion previously passed upon the
course OF the Spanish authorities was not
well taken. AS a matter of fact, the delay
in transporting the Columbian relics from
Cadiz to Madrid occurred through an error
in the orders given Commander Brownson.
he was instructed to deliver the relics at
Madrid, SO that the Spanish government
was not chargeable with their transporta-
ton from Cadiz to the capital But no
provision or authority was included in the
commanders orders to meet the costs OF
this transportation. He cabled for such
authority, and the goods We're delayed at
Cadiz for short time, until the response
came comforting the necessary authority
to defray the expenses of transportation.

The Basis Of a. Sensational story.

A report received at the Navy Depart
ment yesterday afternoon from Capt.
Sumner. commanding the Columbia at
Kingston, Jamaica, affords a partial ex-
PLANTATION OF the story published originally
in a New Hampshire paper on the au-
thority OF a person calling himself -. r.
Thompson" That story was to the effect
that one sailor OF the Columbia had been
killed and two others wounded in a street
row in Kingston. Capt. Summers report
shows that there really had been a row,
but that II was of slight Importance and
involved only one man of the Columbia,
Peter Donahue by name, who, while drunk,
stumbled into a Kingston tough and was
struck on the head with stone. His
scalp was lacerated, and his assailant was
sent to Jail for six months. The Kingston
papers inclosed in the report speak in the
most laudatory terms OF the behavior Of
the Columbias men while ashore. and con-
CO,nn the attack on Donahue as entirely

This is a queer mistake for an admirer
of Mr. Bryan to be guilty of. For six
years Mr.. Bryan has not been able to lift
his voice. His voice is the better man and
lifts him up and has fun with him. now
dumping him In the hollow caves of night
and now tickling his severe and classic
visage with the plume Of eagles and the
fringe of clouds. MIR. Bryans voice has
him under perfect control. He obeys the
slightest movement, and 1t gives him. on
the whole. more exercise than any other
public man in Nebraska gets.

Fraud I'm Twenty-Dollar Gold Coins.


Fraud in Tventy-DOllar Gold Coins.
From the Boston Journal
A new system of fraud has made its ep-
pearance upon the larger denominations Of
our gold coins. New and. unworn pieces are
selected, that they may circulate with less
suspicion, and the circumference and weight
slightly reduced-to the extent say, Of
80 cents to Shy turning down the mill
ing upon the edge of the piece and re-
milling 1t. In the absence OF scales this
fraud can only be detected by comparison
with piece that one is sure has not thus
been tempered with. Several Of such coins
have been stopped at the Boston subtreas-
ury They were chiefly $40 gold pieces.

Russian Marriage Laws.

A newly issued blue-book on mar riage and divorce abroad, contains one fact amongst many others not general ly known in this country. By the laws of Russia man or woman must marry before eighty years of age or not marry at all, and they are also prohibited from marrying more than four times. The blue-book is naturally full of in- formation as regards the prohibited degrees. The Brazilian law permits the marriage of uncle and niece, aunt and nephew, first cousins and of brothers in-law with sisters-in-law. In Italy the uncle and niece alliance is valid and in France it is open to the presi dent to remove the prohibition against marriages between the deceased wife: sister and her brother-in-llaGw, ara h" tween uncle and niece and aun
 nephew.

 Tartary.
 I had occasion to visit Tartary some years ago. said a New Haven man re- cently, and while there nothing inter- este:l i31e Hora. than watching the na- tivs trade in ca1nels. The camel mar lzet is 6 large square in the center of the town. Here the animals are ar ranged ill long rows, their front feet raised on 8 mud elevation constructed for the purpose, the object being to show of the size and height of the creatures. The uproar and confusion of this market is tremendous, with the jn-c3san5 bowling of the buyers and sellers as they dispute, their chatter ing after they have agreed and the horrible shrieking of the animals at having t,.cjf noses pulled for the DIT 2c1a oE mixing them show their agility :a l,1e:Eng and rising.

LOST AND FOUND.
A Remarkable Experience in the Life of
 an Eminent Lawyer.

A Remarkable Experience in the Life of
 an Eminent Lawyer.
 One of the most remarka ble stories of loosing and finding is the following: It seems that certain eminent En- glish lawyer was on visit at Minto in the lifetime of the second earl of that name, and day or two before the hearing of an important case, in which he had been retained as consul. He had brought with him a bundle of papers connected with the suit in ques- tion, and these he took up with him to his bedroom. On the following day the packet could nowhere be found. Careful search was, of course, made, but quite in vain, and eventually the advocate had to go into court without it.
 Years passed without any tidings of the missing bundle, till the gentleman chanced to be once more a guest at Minto, and occupying the same bed room. The morning after his ar rival he awoke to see the long-lost pa pers lying on the dressing table The presumption is, that on the first oc- casion he hid them in his sleep, and on the second visit he found them in his sleep; but where he hid them and found them has never been discovered

The Animals Acuteness In Locating Hid-
 den Dangers
 One elephant, which the officer com handing six-eleven battery of the Royal artillery lent to assist in eXtricating some caneis which were being engulfed in the quicksands, showed an amount of sagacity which was positively mar- vicious. It was with the utmost diff culty, says foreign exchange, that we could get him to go near enough to at tach a drag rope to one camel wanted to rescue. in spite of our being abont fifty yards from the bank'of the river, he evinced the greatest anxiety, while his movements were made with ex- treme caution.
 Despite coazing, persuasive remon- strance, and, at last, shower Of heavy blows dealt upon his head by tho cxas- perated mahout, this elephant stub pornly refused to go where he was wanted, but, with his trunk showed cut in front of him, kept feeling his way with his ponderous feet, placing then before him slowly, deliberately anG met,eodieally, treading all the while with the velvety softness of a cat ans taking only one step at a time. Ther suddenly he would break out into { suppressed kind of shrielz and retrea1 backward in great haste.
 When the animal had nearly com pleted a circuit C. the ground with tht same caution and delibera tion, he ad vancad to within ten yards of the poo camel, but net another inch would ht move, though several men were walk ing between him and the camel with out any signs of the ground giving way

CATARRH,

Catarrh is usually applied to 8 peculiar dis order of the nostrils and adjacent parts, while in fact it may attack every organ in the body, containing 8 mucous membrane, CataIrh may then be said to be disease Of the mucous membranes of the body. The most prominent feature however is morbid dischaTge from the head, either by the n0sirils or a dropping into the throat. Al first here is almost constant flow of clear acyid fluid, but lat>r on there is secretSd &n offensive, purnlent, greenlsh or yelloWish matter h others there is tough yiseid and offensive rhleem. which collects be- hind and above the soft palate and which ad- hers wi h glueish tenacity.
 In some cas there is a thick vlscld, sl1my secretion which coats over the membrane of the nasal cavities and then 1utrehes giving rise to a stench sufficiently f@t.d to poison the at HospheTe of whole room. In other eases all secretions are suspended causing an unpleasant feeling of dryness, hest and feverishness in the head and nose condition known 8s ''Dry Cat arrh." The disease speedily extends to the air cavities of the bones of the head and face and down past the nasal cavity into the throat. causing frequent attempts to clear the parts of phlegm producing the sound "hem,' more or less forcibly. In this manner the dlEculty throat larynx. trachea and bronchial tubes un- til it finally reaches the lungs.
 Thus Catarrh becomes the starting point o1 consumption development, the disease being eventual transmitted to the lungs, both by nervous connection and continuity Of surface
 So frequently has this fatal course been no ticed that all those who are thoroughly conver sant with the subiec now leok upon tatarrh as 6 premonition ana one of the very earliest manifestations of consumption. Every case O. Catarrh is curable py our sy stem of practice.
