!. Quiet Home Thoughts

The death of Christ was inf
nitely more than simply as a mar
tyr to the truth. Thousands have
died tor truth. 1t is thrilling to
read of the sacrifices made by
Paul, John, Polycarp, Ignatius,
Chrysostom, Latimer and others.
Our land is filled with the graves
of thousands who died for the
cause they held to be right. All
these were martyrs for the truth,
as they saw it and loved it. But
the death OF Christ was an atom
ing death. Il was divlnely ap-
pointed, voluntary, vicarious and
all sufficient to atone for all sin.
A few mole years at most and
we shall go hence to inherit our
eternal home. The thought thrills
the soul After all, what a poor
little life of pain, disappointment
and unrest we live here. There
we shall realize our fondest hopes,
our deepest longings. Here, the
bud-there, the fruit. Here, the
ray Of feeble, Pickering light
there, the blaZ, OF electricity.
Here, the sweet nelody--there,
the rapturous symphony. Here,
some few days of joy-there, an
eternity of unspeakablc bliss.
Mans nature proves the i'm
mortality of the soll. Ii he is
not to live hereafter, why such
transcendent powers of mind,
why such ceaseless longings after
higher things?
Reader, you are anxious'y toll
Ing to secure enough of this
worlds goods so that you may
have ease when you are eighty
years old. How about your Sc
curing an interest in the treasures
above? The worldly things you
are gathering, you are surely not
gong to enjoy, at most, much
beyond eighty years of age.
Then, you go hence. What are
you going to do when you arr
$4,000 years old? Think, think,
think on these things! You are
Fastening to the bar of God. Are
you prepared to answer for your
use of the privileges and oppor-
tunities God Is giving you here

THIS STATE IN BRIEF
BIuodhounds Follow the Trail

GRAND ISLAND, Neb., Sept. 81
The Lincoln bloodhounds which were
secured to follow the trail of the
escaped prisoners OF the county Jail
did excellent work. Notwithstanding
that the prisoners had thrown pepper
in the beds in order to make 1t diff
cult to give the dogs a scent, they
secured the same and led the trainer
through cornfields, along railroads
and over wagon roads until thirty feet
from the depot platform at Doniphan,
twelve miles south Of this city. Here
they repeatedly threw up the scent,
and it is evident that the prisoners
boarded the st. Joe passenger at Doni-
phan. Deputy Sheriff M~cCashland was
very ~favorably impressed with the
work Of the animals and there is some
talk Of securing a pair in this city,
there being quite a number of petty
depredations which it is believed
would be discontinued were blood
hounds on the spot to take up tho
trails.

SEWARD, Neb., Sept. 22.-The gold
en- wedding of Mr.. and Mrs. George
Slonecker here was a social event of
more than usual note; it vas an ova-
ton to one Of Stewards pioneers. For
thirty years this couple has been
among the most highly respected citi-
zen of Seward county, and V e 200
people turned out to show by their
presence and presents the esteem with
which they hold the vanguard of civ
iliZation. 1t was a band Of strong,
honest yeomanry who came here be-
fore the '70s. The impulse that made
Seward county what it is today came
from the integrity, intelligence and in
duStry of these hardy pioneers. One Of
the very first, if not the first, frame
house in this county was built by M.
Slonacker, every stick Of which was
hauled from Nebraska City, then the
nearest railroad point.

SOUTH OMAHA, Sept. 22.-The re-
cent marked advance in the price of
fat cattle and hogs has greatly stimu-
lated feeding and farmers are now
buying everything they can put their
hands or and shipping into the interior
where feeding has already commenced.
The late summer and early fall feeding
of live stock is now the largest ever
known at this time of the year. Espe-
cially is this true in the lower Mis-
souri, valley, where a short time ago
feeders would not look at new corr at

NEBRAskA's GREAT CORN CRor
100000, 900 Bushels Is the Estimate and
1t May he More.

-
1t May lie More.
A conservative estimate Of Nebras-
ka's corn crop, which is now safe from
frost. is 800, 900, coo bushels. 1t is hard
for the mind to grasp what these fig
ureS mean.
Counting so bushels OF shelled corn
to the load, it would take five million
teams to haul the crop to market, a
caravan that would reach around the
world. 1t will take al army of $1,000
men over two months to husk it if they
hUsk GO bushels a day each. II loaded
into cars of 10000 capacity it would
take 600,0 600 cars to haul the crop, a
train over 1000 miles long, At no
time within the past ten years has
there been such a tendency on the part
of farmers to look for new locations,
either to better themselves Or to pro-
vide homes for their children. Many
sections in the East are oyercrOWded,
while thousands Of acres of rich, we l.
watered lands can still be had in Ne
braska and Northern Kansas at com
p~aratively low prices. Thousands will
visit that country this fall, as the
railroads have announced cheap-rate
harvest excursions for Oct. 3 and II.

Will Amply the Wheat Rate.

LINCOLN, Neb., Sept. 22.-It was
stated at Burlington headquarters that
that road would oon apply the rates
granted ON wheat to Chicago to the
potato crop, in the hope of moving the
heavy crop in Nebraska and Kansas to
the east. It was stated that this
change would not make much differ
ace in the rate from Lincoln, but that
1t would be quite an object to potato
growers in the western part of the
state. One thing that will cause the
potato crop to move slowly is the price
at which the crop is held by the grow
ers. While potatoes are selling for
u cents in many places in Iowa, the
Nebraska farmer is holding his product
at % cents. He may get it, but the
railroad people do not believe that he
will.

LINCOLN, Neh., Sept. 22.-State
Auditor Cornell began quo warranto
proceedings in the supreme court to
prevent Governor Poynter from acting
as head of the state insurance depart

out Of the enactment by the last legis-
