tinguished ladies from various parts
of the Union, who have been attend
ing what is known as the Mothers
Congress" This noble band of wom-
en- instead of combining themselves to
the discussion of political questions
have been considering the duties of
mothers to their children which can
not be too thoroughly understood or
too highly commended. On Wednes-
day, the congress visited Mrs. Cleve-
land, and paid their respects to the
lovely Frances, who is about to retire
from public life.

A conductor on the Omaha road
when asked if his road was blockaded
said: "Blockaded? Do you know,
my son, that when blizzard strikes
the Omaha, they order every train out
and trains are sent each way every
fifteen minutes. Blockaded, why how
could it be blockaded? 1t might
float off, for they keep SO many trains
running on that road that the rails
are red hot all the time; the snow
melts as fast as it drops, and there is
a stream of hot water running between
the rails as long as the blizzard lasts,
and life preservers are issued to the
passengers"

The effort of any newspaper to
build up town is practically multi
fed unless it is backed up by the
business men. A stranger turns from
the news columns Of paper to its
advertising pages, and if he fails to
find there the business cards of the
merchants and professional firms, he
comes to the conclusion that news
paper is not appreciated, in which
case il is good place to keep clear
of--N. w. Printer.

The new immigration bill has final
ly passed both houses of congress and
gone to the president for his sigma
ture. This bill is move in the right
direction, may not go SO far as it
ought to, but is infinitely superior to
the present law. 1t was voted for
upon non-partisan lines. The tests
made are superior intelligence and
financial circumstances. The theory
of 'fThe land of the free, and the
home of the brave" is very we'll, looks
pretty, and reads sweetly, but this
country must come to the position
that charity commences at home, that
our own people must be protected,
and that the laboring men of Amer
lea must not be beggered, in order to
carry out these "highfalutin' ideas of
universal love. Self-preservation is
the first law which applies to the
prosperity Of nations as we'll as the
safety Of the individual and the soon
or our lawmakers recognize these car
dinal facts the better it will be for US
as people, and our country as ma
ton.

day Of the Father of bis county, but
Judging from the general inattention
paid to it by the merchants and trades
men generally, it could hardly be called
dies non. The city officers were open.
The federal officers and banks were
closed the post office being open only at
the usual holiday hours. The Stars and
Stripes fosted from the flagstaff on City
Hall and several private citizens threw
out their flags, but sEere WINS not great
display of bunting. During the day
there was remarkable lack of horn
blowing On the part Of the Young Amerl-
Gu, only al occasional toot breaking the
general quiet.
The Sons and Daughters of the Reyo-
luton dined ut the preble house, the
Portland Gun club had shoot for the

Little Women's Ball.

1t has been customary for number
of years for the Little Women to give
a dance at City hall on Washington
birthnight, and last evening the usual
ball took place. 1t was most brilliant
affair. There were at least 800 people in
the hall, about 900 occupying the bal
comics and 100 couples on the floor. After
a delightful little concert programme By
Chandler's orchestra, while the party was
assembling, the grand march struck up
and all of the 100 couple participated.
Mr.. Charles L. Snow was hoorldirector,
with Walter E. Burrowes, Percy H. Bur-
rowes, Frank p. Larrabee. Elbridge G.
Allen and James E.. Knowles as aides.
The order of IA dances were thoroughly
enjoyed, and at intermission excellent
refreshment were served in Reception

very elegant. The dance orders were
very pretty and bore as frontispiece q
