She was born in Lowell a little more
than sixty-one years ago. While she

A. P. AIN The SADDLE.
BY A BILL PASSED OVER THE
GOVERNORS VETO, THEY
GET CONTROL IN OMAHA
Of Police and Fire Departments
Warm Times in the LegisIa-
ture, Over the Affair.

LINCOLN, Neb., April 3.-The bill
which will place Omaha fire and po-
lice departments in the hands of the
A. 2. A. passed the legislature to-
day over the governors veto. The
measure provides that the governor,
attorney general and commissioner
OF public lands and buildings shall
appoint the persons who shall con-
stitute the Omaha fire and police
commission, two of whom may be
of the same party. The attorney
general and commissioner of public
lands and buildings are A. P. AS.
Every business man of prominence
OF Omaha protested against the
measure, since it cuts the mayor of
the city off from all participation
in the control of city affairs. The
police commission at present is a.
non-partisan body.
Ihere was an exciting scene in the
mouse when the bill came up. M. O.
ricketts,, read from an editorial in an
omaha paper which said that a police
man club was held over the heads of
witnesses to prevent them from testi-
lying before the pending investigation.
Rlcketts said that the same police
mans club prevented Omaha from Civ
ing Tom Majors 5000 majority for gov
ernor last fall. When the bill passed
the house there ensued a scene of the
Widest confusion. Tom Majors sprang
INTO the center of the aisle, waved his
nat, at the same time giving a wild
yell. The lobby Joined and began to
sing, We'll hang Jeff Davis on a sour
apple tree" All Omaha is indignant
over the result, and will probably carry
the matter to the supreme court.

THE SVENSK VOTE.
To Hold 1t the Governor May
Change Weighmasters.

Change WeiGhmasters.
A strong pressure is being brought
to bear upon Gov. Clough to make a
change in the Office of chief weigh
master in this city. Edwin Mattson,
of Moorhead, is an applicant for the
position, and claims that his labors in
behalf of the G.. o. p. entitle him to
the place. The present incumbent is
c. M. Reese, of Kandiyohi county,
who has held down the office for six
years. He is the first man who has
succeeded in holding on to the soft
job for more than two years. The
salary is $500, with a contingent fund
of 5000, which is said to go with the
pay. Gov. Clough, it is said, has been
impressed with the idea that Mr..
Reese controls the Scandinavian vote
of Hennepin county, but this claim has
within the past few days been hotly
disputed by some of the leading men
of that nationality in this city. They
say that the only vote which Mr..
Reese controls is his own, and that
they are not averse to a change.
Clough is anxiously fishing for the
Scandinavian vote, and is trying to
find out which way the wind blows in
this matter. If he can be convinced
that Reese has but a small following
in this county he will make the
change. Mattson is hustling to estab-
lish this fact in the mind of his excel
lency, and if he succeeds in doing so
it is quite probable that the change
will be made.

Davis Won't Have 1t.

The fight over the assignment of
Weitzner & Gutenberg in the petition
for the appointment of receiver in
stead of permitting Frank w. Davis
to act as assignee, came to an abrupt
termination yesterday, when Davis re-
fused to act in that capacity. The
matter came before Judge Jamison yes
terday, and when Davis handed in his
resignation Freeman P. Lane object
ed, but could not induce Davis to
change his mind. After short con-
sultation the attorneys agreed upon
William c. Combey, one of the heaviest
creditors, for assignee. Mr. Combey,
who is credit man of the Powers Dry
Goods company, is one of the principal
creditors, and his appointment is VIC
tory for the many creditors of the
notorious firm.

THE SAME OLD CHESTNUT.
Sailors washed Overheard on,,

Sailors W8shed Overheard Only
to Return on the Next Wave.
SAN FRANCISCO, April S.-The coal
laden Wachausett arrived today,
twenty-five days from Nanaimo, B. c..
after having encountered unusually
rough weather. The officers and crew
report a tale of the sea that has many
times been told and almost as many
times doubted. On March 10, 20 and n
the vessel labored through a strong
southwest gale with high cross seas
running. The ship was submerged much
of the time, rolling fearfully, and her
cargo shifted until she had bad list
to starboard. Much damage was done
to her sails and the stanchions
During the height of the gale oc-
CURED an incident about which the
sailors are still talking. A terrible
wave came down upon the vessel,
sweeping her for her full length and
carried four seamen overheard The
others of the crew quailed before the
frightful sight and gave up ever seeing
their mates alive. The four men were
carried some distance, only to be swept
back to the vessel again by tremend-
Gus cross sea. Three of them were
thrown violently on the deck. The
fourth was washed within reach of the
lower sheet, which had dipped to the
rolling of the craft. He grabbed it. held
fast and was hauled safely on board.

Lots of Folks Want to Plant ,Em,
but the Coin Is Not Forthcoming.
The promoters of the Pingree potato
plan are finding themselves in rather
a difficult position. The registration of
applicants has gone apace, and offers
of land have come in in plenty but the
money for the work is as yet not forth
coming. The finance committee of the
commission has not met at all, and had
no report to make at the meeting of
the commission last night. Mayor Pratt,
chairman Of the committee, was absent,
but the secretary was instructed to re-
quest him to call a meeting of the COM
mittee at an early day. The committee
on registration is a little shy over the
progress of the plan, and do not relish
the idea of putting in two weeks regis
tering applicants, only to disappoint
them ALL There was some talk at the
meeting last night of closing the work
OF registration very shortly, and the
office will probably be closed Wednes-
day next. The next meeting of the COM
mission will be week from last even
ing, and by that time the finance COM
mlttee is expected to have the ground
canvassed so as to determine whether
or not the plan shall fail for lack of
funds.

wash tub, carrying away genuine oil
from well, was a scene witnessed
this morning at the well at the south
east corner of the public square
About o'clock James Mobley took
some water from the pump, and, MOTTO
ing the appearance of Oil, applied a
match. 1t burned freely, and he filled
a, lamp, which made a good light.
Large quantities of the water were
pumped out on. the ground, and when
lighted, the blaze rose to a height of
twelve feet. The well is an old one
having been used by the people for
years. For several years signs of oil
nave been detected, but this is by far
the largest yield. The most reason
able theory advanced is that it comes
from an artesian well which was bored
few years ago to depth of 1000 feet
few yards away. Whan it was I'M
capped and a lighted taper dse--ed in
blue smoke srosa. Egcihsmebt is in

tissues with better nutrition, and the
veins with better blood. When Paine's
celery compound is given to one of
these excitable, weak-nerved, sallow,
perhaps scrofulous young persons, the,
mother Is often amazed at the rapid
ity with which 1t restores the strength,
builds up the worn nervous tissues, and
replaces the languor of a depleted
nervous system by the elasticity of
youthful health.
Paine's celery compound makes peo-
pie well-not only worn out, enfeebled
men and women OF mature age, but
young persons whose slighter powers
have been overtaxed by excitement
or immoderate work without proper
intervals for rest and repair.
Paines celery compound has played
most important part in the lives of
thousands of young people in every
section of this country. Many whose
nervous systems had been so stimu-
lated as to unfit them utterly for
study, 1t has made vigorous and strong
enough to ably bear the burden of COM
ing years. 1t has enabled them to.
grow up vigorous men and women,
capable of doing the part of active,
strong men and women in the world
Mr.. James B. WetZel, writing from
his home in New Berlin, Penn, says:
ALLOW me to speak a few words in
praise of Paine's celery compound
My younger sister, whose picture L
send you, was subject to nervous at
tacks, and, we thought, to heart
trouble. We tried numerous medicines
for her ailments, but without much
' avail. Last winter she had severe
attack of nervous trouble with her
, eyes, and we gave her Paine's celery
compound and she improved wonder
fully upon 1t, and she has been well
ever since. If these few words of I'M
solicited testimony can be of any bene-
fit please use them as my unbiased
and unprejudiced opinion"

theater and the young man had seen
the play before. He let everybody four
seats around know that and he kept
telling just what was coming and just
how funny it would be when it did
come. He had a pretty girl with him,
and he was trying to amuse her. At
length he said:

breath until the major tells us those

Gov. Mckinley has his finger on the
public pulse, and popular sentiment
sets so strongly against free coinage
that there is not the least likelihood of
his being mistaken as to his drift. We
do not attribute to him any great re-
gard for sound principle on this ques-
ton. If the balance of popularity were
as distinctly in favor of free coinage
as it is in opposition thereto, we should
be very sorry to trust Gov. Mckinley

himself in antagonism to free coinage,

aisle in the National theater Monday
night. They wore hats of ford
style of architecture, and covered with
luxuriant vegetation. Strong men
shuddered and grew pale with anxiety
as to where those hats would eventu-
ally locate themselves, and as the
ladies slowly moved to the front the
feelings of the audience verged up
on the stormy and tumultuous. At
last they were seated well down to-
ward the orchestra, and at least 100
persons-those directly in the line of
sight-turned wan and CHASTITY with

consists essentially of semi-cylindrical

arranged passages opening on one side
outside of the hearth and under the

hearth above the CRATE, preferably
nearly level with the layer of fuel,

Sensational Suits In n Life Insur-

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, April q
Sensational charges are being made in
the trial of the suit of the estate of
William M. Runk against the Mutual
Life Insurance company of New York,
which is in progress in the United
States circuit court. Runk, who was
Ia member of the firm of Darlington

through stock speculations and in
October, 1892, he committed suicide.
He was carrying about S475,000 life in
,surance, of which 1900 was in the
Mutual company. The defense claims
that he had increased his line from
. $500, 900 to 100000, so that his stealing
would be made good after his death.
The insurance company AYERS that
4 Runk was insolvent to the extent of
$685., 600; that he had embeZzled 100000
from his firm, and $50, 600 from the city
, mission of which he was treasurer,
and owed S130,0C0 to a lady who had
trusted him because of his business

Nervous exhaustion in children is
worrying a great many fathers and
mothers these days
While the hurry and hustle of mod
ern life is bringing a constantly in
creasing strain upon grown men and
women, there certainly comes to light
the startling fact of a growing ten
their children
AS these boys ind girls, when older,
will enter a life of nervous strain fully
as exacting as that of today, it is no
wonder that parents view with !. s.
may these early signs of nervous
weakness, and anxiously seek some
means of making the young people
strong and well again. The remedy is
at hand in every city and town in
America.
Z 1t is the remedy first prescribed by
that greatest of all modern educators,
Prof. Edward E. Phelps, M. D., LII. d.,
of Dartmouth college. 1t is Paine's
celery compound, which Principal
SdiuP, VI view I1dVcii, anu 1TeS. COOK,
of the National Teachers associatio
have so recently recommended.
Countless parents today give their
children Paine's celery compound and
see them grow robust and vigorous
day by day before their eyes till they
are again restored to the perfect
health that belongs to youth. Ply
sicians everywhere advise the use of
this greatest of blood purifiers and
nerve foods.
One of the danger signals of nervous
exhaustion among young people is the
lack of desire for food and the capri
ciousness of appetite. When their
over-pressed nervous systems have
been driven to the point of exhaust on
their faces grow pale and pinched
,their spirits decline, their bodies lose
/ perceptibly in weight and strength,
