Rushing out Grain at Randolph.

RANDOLPH, Neb., Sept. 29.-(Special.)-
The Short Line freight came out here today,
returning to Sioux City with thirty loaded
cars. Increased grain shipments will neces-
state running trains regularly every day.
The Omaha branch has also increased its
service, giving two trains daily each way
from junction points to Bloomfield and Hart
ington. Conservative estimates place re-
ceipts Of grain at the three elevators here
at 5000 bushels per day for the last three
days. Forty cents was paid for wheat and
13 cents for oats yesterday. The past two
days were very cold and windy, with freez
ing weather last night. Ice formed about
an eighth Of an inch thick. Wind from the
northwest and very cool today. The Bap-
fist Sunday school had harvest home exer-
cises tonight at their church, and a very
Interesting program.

Rev. ". G. Rocho preached in a miniature
corn palace yesterday morning and had q
mammoth squash for a pulpit. 1t was thar.
vest Sunday and no one in the congregation
could overlook the fact. The pulpit platform
was completely transformed by the most
unique and artistic church decorations ever
seen in this city. The roitrum occupied by
the preacher and the choir was rooted by a
matching Of sheaves Of grain. This roof
was supported by six columns of vari-colored
corn In the ear, and the adornments and
arches were likewise made Of corn. On each
side of the pulpit we e pyramids Of vege ables
a long-necked squash in rather graceful sem
blance to the modern vase surmounting one
while the other was capped artistically by a
scalloped squash. with a little gourd as 8
browning sphere. In front of the pulpit was
a mammo squash, which would do honor &c
a state fair, and on each side were banket
vegetables and fruit of all varieties Of form
and color, and yet so skillfully arranged as
to give a very pleasing effect.
The sermon was one appropriate to the oc'
casion, the topic being "a Well Watered
Garden" The text chosen was from jeremiah
And their soul shall be as a watered gar
den" The preacher glowingly pictured the
benefits Of irrigation, and then skllfully drew
comparisons with the effect Of the holy spirit
upon the heart Of man. AS a well watered
garden was fresh and not ~parched, so the
true Christian should be Joyous and not de
spondent. Religion should make a mar
happy, hopeful and courageous. Another
point of resemblance was that a well wateret
garden grew in beauty. So the life blessed
by Christian inspiration and hope should be
so beautiful as 10 be attractive to all. Tn,
third and most important resemblance wa,
that Of productiveness, by their fruits VI
shall know them" He dwelt upon the fruits
OF the spirit and how they shall be cultivated
The sermon sparkled with apt illustrations
In the evening the Sunday school gave
harvest home service of a very interesting
nature.

NO BURYING ALIVE DONE.

Are people ever buried alive? No, l think
not. Such stories l think are in most in
stances fakes. l have been in this business
a great many years, and l never came across
such a case, nor ever knew any one else
that did. The nearest approach to anything
of this kind that I have encountered was one
of suspended animation, in which we held the
subject for two weeks. The body was warm
during this entire period, but there was
neither heart pulsation nor respiration. We
waited until all animal heat had gone before
the burial preparations were continued. The
wild tales that frequently spring up from some

Lfuuid Fuel.

A new fuel for steamboats, has recently
been tested, first in the merchant marine
and later on the Italian and French navies,
with great success. The German navy
department has just ordered experiments with
fuel, which is called masut. 1t is, properly
speaking, a derivative of coal tar, which In
turn Is manufactured from soft or BIZ
luminous coal. This liquid fuel is carried
in tanks, and is fed into the fire boxes
through pipes, at the end of which a strong
current Of air atomizes the fuel and blows
1t into every corner of the fire box. A strong
flame passes up through the tubes and walls
of the boiler, burns almost smokelessly, and
develops a considerably higher temperature
than coal, generating thereby a larger amount
Of steam. 1t is claimed for this fuel that
II will increase the steam capacity about
20 per cent. The first experiments on the
schoolship Garcia were so successful that
the Navy department has ordered the battle
ship Weissenburg and the armorclad Sieg-
fried to be Supplied with masut fire boxes,
and the result of the. experiment is looked
for ward to with great interest.

This little community mas the ordering Of
most of its affairs, and its history today is

Fancy a civilized society athat pays no taxes

the Norfolk islanders have money In the bank

for their headquarters by the payment Of

part due to the Norfolk islanders of the

$4,000 was invested in Sydney, and the In

chief magistrate, the two councillors who
assist him in public affairs. the pastor, the

to give to the community nine days work a
year for road making and other public pur-
poses. Every child between the ages OF 6
and IA must be sent to school. and their par
ents are fined Cd a day for every day they
are absent without good excuse. Beer, wine
and other spirituous liquors, may be landed
on the island only for medicinal purposes,
and the smallest fine for intoxicatlon is $40,
which is a small fortune in that neighbor-
hood. INDUCING in profane or obscene Ian

Maryland Democrats ndOrSe the Senior
Senator's Choice.
JOHN E. HURST FOR GOVERNOR
State Senator Crothers Gets the Nomina-
ton for Acknowledgement and Marion
de Kalb Smith for ContrOller-Cleve-
lands Administration Endorsed.

BALTIMORE, Aug. 1.-When the news
was definitely flashed throughout head
quarters that Senator German had slated
the rich dry goods merchant, John H.
Hurst, Of this city, for g~ubernatorial
honors, and State Senator Crothers for
the attorney generalship in place of Gem
eral Kyd Douglas, who had been conceded
the nomination, a howl of surprise and
disappointment went up from many
quarters, especially from the country dele
gates, where the desire for reassessment
Is strong, and where the friends Of this
Measure had supported the candidacy Of
Thomas G.. Hayes, q leading exponent of
reassessment.
Several Of Hayes supporters were so
embittered that they declared their inten-
ton Of voting for Judge Fisher, the
avowed opponent Of German. Senator
Hayes, who asserted that he had from the
outset boon assured of Germans support,
emphatically declared he would remain in
the fight, and openly charged treaohery.
The other candidates, however, excepting
Judge Fisher, philosophically bowed to
tho inevitable, and Hurst and Crothers
were nominated. Marion de Kslb Smith,
Of Kont county, received the nomination
for comptroller.
HAttersly Talbot, chairman of the state
convention committee, in calling the con-
vention to order made q lively address.
During 1t one enthusiast proposed a cheer
for John K. Hurst. The cheers n the
Kisses, however, were almost equal in
volume. A cheer for Senator German met
with better success. Mr.. Talbot pre-
dicted a big Democratic success this year.
Ho closed by introducing Mr.. Bernard
Garter as temporary chairman.
Mr.. Carter said he felt confident that
the party would this year, as 1t has in the
past, go forward with united front to a
great victory. He called attention to the
fact that this year In Maryland the Repub-
lican party was active and aggressive, and
warned his hearers that harmony was
necessary In the Democratic ranks.
The committee on resolutions, after an
hours elaboration, returned with a unan.
imous report. The resolutions approved
of the Democratic platform of 1892 and of
the able and patriotic administration of
President Cleveland. They declare against
free silver, and approve of the Wilson tar
if bill, which was characterized as the
best the country has known for thirty
five years. The administration of Gov
ernor Brown was highly complimented.
The reassessment was regarded by the
committee as being demanded by the peo-
pie.
The nominee, John L. Hurst, although
q Gorman adherent, has also been "a con-
sistent follower of the Cleveland admin
istration, and will doubtless poll the bulk
of the party's voters.
