A PIONEER LETTER.
NEBRASKA CITY, May IL, 1855.


My Dear Sister-You will think from
the heading of this letter that am get

but hope, after spending a month or
two in Detroit, to settle down in COM
Portable, cosy, little domicile of our

years-if life and health are given us
in improving the grounds about it and
making it outside, as we'll as inside, per-

little groves of forest trees to be seen
along the creeks in every direction.
Indians
Nature has contributed largely to
beautify our city There is one thing
and only one thing I see to dislike here
that is the great number of Indians,
roaming about. They are Otoes and
neater think than the Omahas, but I
do not like their dark, greasy, broad
faces. Yet, they are very comical, some
times.
A Dandy.
Yesterday was much amused at an
Indian across the street. He had just
purchased an umbrella - evidently the

came out from the store, carefully
opened it, gazed at it wonderingly, raised
it over his head and promenaded back

saw of him he was strutting off with
his umbrella under his arm with look
as proud and triumphant as the rooster
that generally heads the column of a
political newspaper after victorious
election.

FORTUNES PHASES
THE UPS AND DOWNS IN THE
LIFE OF A CLERK.
With a Happy Ending-The World
Seemed All Very Dark for a While.

A clerks life ordinarily, is a very
humdrum one with but little variety to
the daily routine. But Mr.. Fred. X.
Morton, of No. so Vesper street Port
land, Me-, had an experience recently
which has made his life now very
happy one. In telling reporter of what
he went through, he said:
Il had been suffering with stomach
trouble for about two years. Every day
about 10 o'clock in the morning and 3
O'Clock in the afternoon l became faint
and felt so bad that If did not sit down
1 would fall. That sensation usually
lasted for about an hour, and when
noon came / had no appetite for lunch.

try them. / felt relief from the first

now but always keep them in the house
l have told my friends what these pills
have done for me and should l know of

surely recommend DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People"
Mr.. Morton's statement was publish
ed in the Portland Express, after he
had sworn to 1t before Marshall H.
burlington, a notary public.
The most effective remedy in the
world in case of this kind is DR. Will
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People. They
act directly on the blood and nerves.
This makes them invaluable not only
for stomach trouble but also for such
diseases as locomotor ataXia, partial

Mr.. Cobb, who is connected with the
the fish of the Hawaiian Islands, has
been. during the past few weeks, prose
cutting study of the whaling industry
and it's relation to the Hawaiian Islands.
His researches, which at the present time
are necessarily fragmentary, and discon-
nected, are very interesting. In speaking
of the subject last night, Mr.. Cobb said:
The whaling industry was one of the
Oldest commercial enterprises with which
the name of these islands is associated.
Early IN the last century. vessels from
the north put in here for supplies and to
store their cargo Even in the latter part
of the eighteenth century ,..e islands
were recognized as haven for the
catching of whales was at its height
Honolulu and Hilo were about equally
diviued commercially, and Lahaina out
stripped both of them. The narbor of
forest of masts. One could walk from
one end of the harbor to the other by
stepping from deck to deck. 1t is esti-
mated that, in a good season. the vessels
spent hundreds of thousands of dollars
here. All the old business houses in this
city owe the foundation of their fortunes
to this enterprise. When the railroad
was built across the American continent
the whaling industry which had been
failing for many years, received its
death blow. Previous to that time, oil
had been shipped around the Horn but
with the Introduction of the Central Pa
cific road into the commercial world this
was changed,and the product was ship
1874 there was a large number of vessels
crushed in the ice. This put summary
end to the failing industry.
THE gradual decline of whaling was
not noticed by the people of the islands.
as. sugar was a growing enterprise, and
the money that had been invested In
whaling was now put In the product of
the cane.
THE Hawaiians made excellent whal-
ers. Often the entire crew, with the
exception of the officers, would be made
up OF kanakas. The money they OBJ
tanned In this way did them little good.
however. for the influence of the sailors
upon the natives was anything but bene-
fetal. 1t was the whalers who were
among the first to introduce those vices
that unfortunately accompany European
civilization. wherever it goes. The ad-
vent of the whalers did more probably.
than anything else. to decimate the popu-
lation of the Hawaiian Islands. They

Britain MAY Ask Loan.

London, Nov. 5.-What is regarded as
an important announcement preparing
the people of Great Britain for new tax
es and fresh loans was made last night
by the chancellor OF the exchequer, Sir
Michael Hicks-Beach, in a speech at
Bristol After abiding to the increase
in the ordinary expenditures in the gov
eminent he reviewed the war taxes, and
said that the ever-increasing demand OF
the national exchequer gave reasons for
careful thought and even anxiety for the
future.

of them protested. and got out an in
junction to restrain the collection of the
taxes on the ground that after the time
had elapsed for the work to be done on
the original bid. the council had failed
to again give notice and set time for
doing the work. The case was taken up
to the supreme court and the dissenting
property owners won the case. Then
the bank brought suit in the federal
court making the city of Clinton the
defendant, as Lyons had in the mean
time been merged into that city.
In his opinion handed down yester-
day Judge Shras says in part, that 1T
appearing that since the issuance of the
bonds the city of Lyons has been an
nexed to the city OF Clinton, the court
holds that the paving bonds issued by
the former city are subject to the de-
fense that they exceeded the five per
cent limitation on municipal indebted
ness found in the constitution of the
state In treating these bonds as an
obligation of the city Of Lyons they
cannot be hold valid in an amount ex-
ceeding s11 ,o10 and that so far as the
equitable right may exist to enforce the
payment against the owners of the
abutting property is involved this ques-
ton cannot be settled without making
other parties to the suit, VINO are own
ers of abutting property. and leave 10
granted to the complainant to amend
the bill making the parties thereto own

CLINTON PAVING CASE.
Judge Shiras Hands Down an Opinion
of Importance.

Dubuque, Nov. 5.-Judge Shiras of the
United States court handed down an
opinion in the famous Clinton bond
case yesterday This is perhaps one of
the most complicated cases with which
our distinguished judge had had t., deal
for many day, If not during his entire
career on the federal bench. The opin-
ion does not fully dispose of the case,
but permits the parties to bring in 9TH
err defendants in the case, and makes
other recommendations.
1t was in the year 1898 that the city
council of Lyons decided to issue bonds
to pave Sixth street. The council ad-
vertised for bids in the regular way and
let the contract, but found that owing
to the hard times they could not sell
the bonds. It run ON and altho the con-
tractor was to have the work completed
by Nov. 1, 1894, the work was not begun
until the spring Of 1895. The Work Went
along under the original contract With
out any more advertising or reconsider
alton and the savings bank of Burling-
ton. VT. purchased the bonds. But
when the levy for the paving was made
on the abutting property owners some
