One Years Figures on Manufacture of Alco-
holic Liquors.

The Washington census bureau re-
port of the manufacture of alcoholic
liquors during the year ended May 81,
1900, shows that the value of the land
machinery, tools and livestock used in
the manufacture of liquor aggregates
S457, GA, 0S7 and that there are 1850
establishments all making money turn
ing out alcoholic stimulants. During
the census year, the report says, there
were l. l9S, COZ, l0i gallons of malt Ii
quor, 103, 800, i23 gallons of spirits and
2, 42o, 56I gallons of wines of various
kinds, making total of l, 325, 35S. 094
gallons of all kinds of alcoholic Ii
quors which were manufactured in the
United States during that year. Ac-
cording to Admiral Bowles of the bu-
reau of construction of the navy de-
partment this amount of liquor would
make lake in which battleship not
only would float but in which it could
be manoeuvred. The total consump-
tion for this country is estimated at
l, 322, l66, GS5 gallons, or 173 gallons
per capita for every man, woman and

opinion that successors TO the four council

need be elected. he is not very clear about
It. II is said that other cities OF the class

necessity Of electing all the councilmen.

HEAVY SALES OF YORK LANDS
As Result of immigration Many
Transfers of Farms Are Made
at Good Prices.

YORK. Neb.. March 7.-(special.)-Every
day for the past three weeks the real es-
tate transfers Of farms in this county have
been from $4,000 upwards. and yesterday
the total was s1os. 900. Never In the his
tory Of York county has there been such a
large transfer Of farm lands. 1t is esti-
mated that over 800 Iowa and Illinois
farmers have mads purchases in York
county and have moved here. There has
been a large number of purchasers from
different parts Of the state. Recent sales
OF farm lands are at s45 TO SIS per acre.
The reason for such large sale Of farm
lands Is due to the fact that farming In
York county pays better than farming In
eastern states. Farmers here are prosper
Gus and are making money and have built
nne. large. modern homes, large new barns,
granaries and cribs and are buying more

Spring Time the Best Season
Of the Year to Treat Chronic
Catarrh.

Notwithstanding that a great number OF
people have been cured Of chronic catsrrh
by taking Peruns during the past cold sea-
SON. yet it cannot be denied that the cold.
wet, stormy weather has retarded many
cures. and, In some cases. actually pre-
vented q cure.
But springtime has come at last. n now
is the time for all catarrh sufferers to be-
gin a systematic course Of treatment for
this disease. The greatest di1hculty in the
way of treating chronic catarrh is that the
patient Is so liable to catch cold during
the treatment and thus delay q cure.
This liability at this season Of the year
il, in a great measure, removed, and no
one should neglect the opportunity to a
treatment.
Peruna is Acknowledged by everyone to
be the only reliable and unfailing cure Of
catarrh wherever IL may be located. When
you take Peruna you are not experimenting
with an unknown remedy.

ticulars Is satisfactory to Sheriff Cummings.
A crowd would have been on hand had not
the sheriff taken his men out to the Goldsby
home, four miles north Of town. At a time
II was least suspected he would. The Of
hcer got Eve Tecumseh business men to
dress up in shabby attire. to represent the
tramps as closely as possible. and took
the seven men before Miss Goidsby. The
girl was propped up in a rocking chair.
was so weak she could hardly speak or
move. and was considered entirely in an
UNIT condition for the service asked Of her.
When asked to select the two men who
so brutally assaulted her Monday after
noon. she selected hrst a popular Tecumseh
young man. Then. upon being asked TO
designate the other. she pointed out the
tramp the sheriff believed all along knew
something Of the AFFAIR. The fact that Miss
Coldsby selected the Tecumseh man is taken
to show that she was in no condition to
identify her assaIlants.
II developed since the assault that a
Mr.. Roup from the east. who is visiting
nAb COublus hhETg ROups NnVct hOm1 -
near the Goldsby place. saw the two tramps
pass the Roup home Monday afternoon.
Mr.. Roup was taken before the seven men,
all strangers and asked to pick out the
tramp. He Immediately pointed out the
man Miss Goldsby had designated as one,
and said the other was not Of the number.
Abbott was also identified by Bruce

Who san him mass by the schoolhouse Mon
day.
Sheriff Cummings is OF the opinion he
has the right party In the one tramp. but
believes he other is innocent. The men
we're not together when arrested in Pavnee

when arrested, but has since given that Of
Abbott. and says that he was at his home
in Hastings, us Chicago avenue. last Mon
day. Sheriff Cummings says he is man Of

nicting stories.
