THE PURPOSE IN LIFE.

Do the tears that arise in the heat of the strife
Seem to Ii lie from your vision the purpose of
life?
Do the myriad cares of laborous days
Leave the doubt in your heart whether living
them pays9
Danish doubt and plod on. Life was given to
man
AS a part of creations mysterious plan.
Each must carry what burdens the years may
bestow
Until burdens and bearer alike are laid low.
And the end of the road is couch with pail,
And it may be the couch is the end of it all,
Or it may be the spirit, released from the clod,
Shares the freedom of time with the infinite
God.
TITS but folly TO dig into moss covered creeds.
Let your life be record of generous deeds.
Not the wisest may fathom futurity's plan,
But the weakest may live as becometh a man.

would not suffice, take the next chance
that offered
Aside from constant apprehension at
the sound of hoofs in the rear, nothing
marred the beauty of the moonlight ride
until point within five miles of Chad
ron was reached. The occasional howl
of coyote only lent interest to the sit
uation. 1t is strange that such things
sometimes give cheer to state of other
wise utter loneliness.
But now something happened to
make the horseman realize that he was
not alone. The time to act had come
Chadron was only five miles distant
and it was near daybreak. The robbers
horses were dead on their feet, and
even the old pinto, the toughest horse
on the range, began to twitch his ears,
which with him was sign of extreme
fatigue. All at once the robbers made a
dash, and it seemed that the finale Of
this prairie drama was at hand. If there
is anything in the horse mind that cor
responds to our own "don't give up the
Ship" the old pinto must have chosen
it for motto in early life. He certain
ly realized that he must reach Chadron
ahead Of his pursuers, and he then and
there established standard of faithful
ness that many "humans" would do
well to emulate. Never tight pinch
but old Spot was there and ready to do
his full duty. The rider seized his
weapons, and the old horse began to
cover space at most astonishing rate
for horse that had galloped all night.
Now he almost flies, and the pursuers
are left hopelessly in the rear. The
money is saved, and in half an hour
they see the crooked streets of Chadron
cleaning in the light of new day The
old horse staggers bravely up to the
Elkhorn National bank, but it is his
last great gallop, and in few days
Charley Ray mourns the loss of the best

When Dune Moore and Smoky Bill

ATTENTION, VOTERS,

The attention of those voters in
Hartford county, who are reasonable,
thinking men, and who are in favor
of continuing such good, clean,
business-like method of conducting
affairs as has prevailed in the office OF
the County Clerk, is called to the fact,
that vote against Mr. Forwood, or
what is equally blamable, neglected
to be cast for him, means change in
the entire personnel of that office, and
with change of administration, a
change of business methods.
The high tribute paid unexpectedly
by Judge Walters, viz. that the
Clerks office, under the control OF Mr..
Forwood has reached a position
which is surpassed by none in the
State, " should have its weight, with
every one. He has made n faithful,
energetic and capable officer and de-
serves at the hands of the voters, ir-
respective of party ties, recognition
of his services.
The office is now in better shane
than ever before and it behooves us
to look well before we exchange a GER
tainty for an uncertainty.

Il REGRO'S IDEA.

In its report of the convention OF
Anne Arundel Republicans which
was held at Annapolis last week, the
following extract from the Baltimore
HeTGtd of Sept. 30 gives the true
account of the nomination of DR.. Tuck.
for chairman:
The convention Immediately as
sembled in the same room as soon a.
the caucus was over. DIR. Tuck was
made chairman of the Convention
and Arthur B. Carter, Jr., secretary.
The convention was composed of ~
colored and 1G white delegates, The
caucus nominees were then confirmed
IT'S above given. The speechmaking
was on the nomination of DIR. Tuck.
Ex-Alderman TIA. Thompson, colored,
placed DIR. Tuck in nomination as
''the leader of the Anne Arundel Re
publicans." William b. Fletcher, co..
ored, in seconding the nomination,
said: ''If we wish to choose a black
man on the ticket, here we have got
one. mean not one i'll color, but a
black man in principle. feel proud
of having such man on the ticket,
one who has always stood up for the
colored man" "Amenm' shouted a
chorus of voices, and the Doctors s
nomination was made by acclama-
ton"
Is this the general view which the
colored Republicans have of their
white allies

UNWARR4NTED PROCEEDINGS.
On Sunday last acting Marshal Far
nan and several policemen, acting
under instructions from Police Com
missioner Heddinger, entered the
premises of MIR. Sigmund Dengler, one
of the Democratic candidates for the
Legislature from Baltimore, and ar
rested the proprietor on the charge Of
violating the Sunday law. The &C
cnsed was given hearing on Monday
afternoon and promptly dismissed.
The case created considerable excite
ment, it being thought by many that
there was political side to the mat
accused, using at the trial the follow
ing strong language. The accused in
this case is Il candidate on the Demo
cratic ticket for the Legislature and
We have more than suspicion that
this raid was concocted for political
purposes by one member of the police
board through the instigation of in
terested parties + i = the good people
of this section of the city have no
hand in this work, but | will try to
show here that a plot against Mr.
Dengler was hatched by those who do
not want him elected, and that the
police commissioner has used the
highest officers in the police depart
ment to carry out the purpose of this
plot"
The proceedings caused quite a
storm at the meeting of the police
board. Mr. Schryver (the Democratic"
member of the board, knew nothing OF
the arrest until he saw it in the paper
the next morning. At the meeting
he demanded to know by whose order
the place was entered and Heddinger
admitted that he had ordered acting
Marshal Farnan TO go there. Mr..
Schryver at once announced that so
far as he was concerned, he did not
propose that one man should exercise
the prerogatives of the board, and
wanted it distinctly understood that
he intended to have a voice in any
orders that may hereafter emanate
from the board. Heddinger made no
reply to this. Mr.. Schryver said that
he was president of the board of Police
Commissioners for ten years, and in
all that time he had never heard of
one member of the board issuing or
ders without consulting his colleagues.
The voters of the city and indeed
those throughout the State should
have their attention calledt TO such base
and unwarranted methods as have
been used in this case to throw dis
credit upon the Democratic nominees.
If one man can order the arrest of any
citizen at such times as suit his con-
venience, then it is better for our per
sonal liberties that return should be
made to that party control which re-
cognized and guaranteed those rights.

Some time since IL man from New

paper money that he had found buried in

IA time and had been so generously toasted
upon by worms that it fell to pieces as
soon as it was touched. 1t would have
been utterly impossible for any one unac-
quainted with the secret marks thut the
government places on its bills to gather
these decayed pieces of money together in
their proper order, but some of tho clerks
in the redemption division of the treasury
are particularly expert in sorting and de
ciphering bits Of mutilated money and
through long years Of experience are able
to tell in an instant TO what particular
note or kind of note a certain scrap be-
longs. When the pieces contained in this
bunch of old money were finally sorted and
mounted, 1t was found that while there
was not one complete note remaining (not
more than two or three scraps in some in
stanoes) the ri8htful owner was entitled to
n redemption Of $500. Unfortunately for
the man who found tho money, he could
not prove his ownership, nor could he
make affidavit as to what had become of
the missing portions of the notes Conse-
quontly the United States was the gamer
