There are at the present time but three beet sugar houses in America. Two of these are in California and one in Nebraska, at Grand Island. The latter is a model factory, backed by ample capital, equipped with all facilities for prosecution of beet sugar manufacture as developed in the beet sugar countries of Eurone. This season it ha3 contracts with some 600 farmers within 100 miles of the factory. Ilailroads make favor able rates for delivery of the most dis tant culture. This season exceptionally unfavorable weather has somewhat re duced the quantity of beet roots ex pected, but the supply will be ample to make a thorough test of the possibilities of successful beet sugar production in Nebraska. The analysis of the beets thus far re ceived indicate a high standard of sugar contents, every load of beets delivered being sampled out and tested. A fixed price is paid for a certain minimum standard, and the price varies from the minimum upward. Our Government consider the experiment of beet raising of such importance to the farmers of the entire country, that Secretary Itusk, of the Department of Agriculture, who has visited Grand Island, has detailed a chemist from his department to remain at Grand Island during the season of sugar making, and to prepare carefully, for the use of the department, all the data available in relation to the work, from the growing of the beets to the final marketing of the sugar. New Or' Icojis Picayune. ONE PRICE TEM In all our Departments. This system has given such universal satisfaction, that our trade will be pleased t know that they can buy goods at the LOWEST BOTTOM PRICES, without jewing- down, and they will ic ceive full value for their money in every instance. All our goods are marked down at the , LOWEST SELLING PRICE FOR CASH, And a child can buy goods at our stores, just as well and as reasonable as the best judge of goods. We wi-1 not deviate from this system. We have just completed our NEW IRON FRONT STORE, 25x100, which we shall use for our DRY GOODS D EPABTHE 1 And this will enable us to keep a class of goods which we have not been able to keep before for lack cf room. All our DEPARTMENTS are now separate and distinct, yet adjoining each other by archways, and our cus tomers can get all their wants supplied without leaving the stores. We have a corps of polite and atte. tn clerks in each Department, who will take pleasure in waiting on you and show you our EW, LARGE au ) ELEGANT ASSORTMENT of GOODS. OUR GLOTHIKG Al GENTS FURNISHING GOODS DEPARTMENT Occupies a space 30x100 and we shall keep the best stock of CLOTHING and GENTS FURNISHING GOODS ever offered in this market. We also make suits or single garments to order on short notice. This Department will be in charge of Messrs. W. T. Hollowell, Sol Einstein, J. Cohn andX. J. Griswold. What Wales Eat. The surface waters in the Gulf Stream teem with minute life of all kinds. There th2 young of larger animals exist, microscopic in size, and adult animals which never grow large enough to be plainly visible to the naked eye occur in immense quantities. By dragging a fine silk net behind the vessel these minute forms are easily taken, and when placed in glass dishes millions uncounted are swimming backward and forward. When looked at through a microscope we see young jelly fishe3, the young of barnacles, crabs and shrimps, besides the adult microscopic species, which are very abundant. The toothless whale finds in these his only food. Rushing through the water with mouth wide open, by means of his whalebone strain ers the minute forms arc separated from the water. Swallowing those obtained after a short period of straining, he re peats the operations. The abundance of this kind of life, says Popular Science Monthly , can be judged from the fact nearly all kinds of whale exist exclu sively upon these animals, most of them so small that they are not noticed on the surface. OUR DRY GOODS DEPARTMENT Occupies a space 25x100, and you can find in this Department all and everything needed for Ladies Wear, D;es? Goods, Notions, Embroidery, Table and Bed Linen, Blankets, Carpets, Rugs and Oil Cloth. This Depart ment will be in charge of Messrs. Joe Rosenthal, A..R. Spier, and Misses Annie Bakek, Lizzie McDon ald and Mary Griswold. The Lomlou Police. The metropolitan police force is not under the control of any local authority, but are directed by commissioners who are responsible to the Home Office of the general government. There is a strong demand in London for the transfer of the police authority to the County Council, and the subject has provoked much dis cussion. It is urged that the concentra tion of imperial and national interests in London is so vastly important, that the higher authorities should maintain con trol of the police in protection of all those central concerns that pertain to the greatest capital in the world. Ulti mately a compromise will probably be reached. The County Council ought certainly to have some share in the police administration of the metropolis. Cen tury. How Timothy Got Its Name.
