a speaker. In addition to the skill of his
fingers, the properly equipped stenographer
must have not only such . fund of general

full drift of a speakers remarks, and to give
other illustrations with accuracy, but he must
have special knowledge of various kinds If
it is his duty to report business meetings. he

When all this had been done the main body

replied, and for the next twenty minutes an ar

the enemy was entering the village Of huders-

we could see the lances of q regiment of Uhlans

body of the enemy. For the first minute or two
they appeared to hesitate on their method OF at

not succeed, and that their only hopa OF victory
lay In turning our flank. Accordingly the ener-

INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM.

The Coming Contestin Behalf of Every Mans
Right To Control Himself and HIS Work.
Mayor Hewitt's speech to William College Alumni.
I want to tell you, gentlemen. that you have
some very difficult problems to grapple with,
and these problems cannot be settled by declama-
ton nor by empiricsm. How we are to settle
them is a great and burning question. Is it TO
be by the sword or by reason and reFectlonf
Surely the world has knowledge enough to take
up these problems and solve them and say just
what rights men have and just what privileges
they should enjoy. Thesunderying principle of
ali law is that every man has right to con-
troll his own individual actions and manage
whatever propertylhe has accumulated IN any
way he pleases.
This great vital right is in danger, and IN
danger from two classes-the ignorant rich and
the ignorant poor. 1t is the mission of you gem
temen and OF all graduates of colleges To train
the intellects OF people so that they can dis.
tinguish between right and wrong; so that they
can lay down sound premises and draw
just conclusions from them and so reason out
the adjustments that must exist in order that
every class may have its rights and no class be
deprived of its rights.
History tells of the barbarous despotism
that once existed In Europe and of the cruel
despots in Africa Who used to cut off the heads
of their subjects at the rate of one hundred a
day.
But what was that despotism in comparison
with the despotis sway exercised by class in
this country today which put it in the power of
one man--you may call him Powdery you
may call him Arthur any name you please

w nero was there ever In history 0eSpOG with

there ever g system that could make it possible
for dozen men to sit in secret conclaye, as is
being done tonight. to determine to withhold
bread from thousands and thousands who
willing to work for their own support and the
support of their familiesR
Here is great crisis, but who is to stand up
in it and preach the TRUTH | say that is the
mission of ysu gentlemen, and of all the other
graduates of colleges, to speak the truth now

AS 10 Nilsson's Retirement.

london Daily NeWs
We understand that the distinguished vocal.
lat Nine Christine Nilsson is about to take her
farewell of the English public, whose favor she
has so long enjoyed. Since her marriage it
asserted that Mme. Nilsson no longer cares to
appear on the operate stage, on which she
gained her first and her greatest triumphs, and
where indeed her leave-taking would undoubt-
eddy have been most appropriate Instead. Nine.
Nilsson has in the course of the fort hcoming
seasou resolved to sing at two farewell concerts
under the direction of Mir. Kuhe. one TO be given
at St. Jamess, and the second and last at tina
ROYAL Albert Hall, tho latter at about the date
of the twenty first anniversary OF Ter debut az
Her Majestys Theater. Whether these two con-
certs will actually be the great prima donna's
final appearance in public time alone. of course,
will show. We believe that Nine. Nilsson will
at least leave herself free To sing hereafter for
charities, ETC., and when so celebrated an artist
she would only be following notable precedent

Impression Made by His speech Before. the

Nebraska State Journal.
Hon. Benjamin Harrison, of Indiana. spoke
last night to u crowded house in Bohanans Hail
Mr.. Harrison fully sustained his reputation
an entertaining speaker and sound reasoner in
delivering able address upon the political
questions now foremost in the minds of the peo-
pie of this country. In touching Upon the issues
which form the dividing line between the two
great political parties of the country the speaker
presented Republican doctrines clearly. forcibly
and convincingiy. His long experience in pub
lie life has made him thoroughly familiar with
all questions of national Importance. and these
be handled fairly but at the same time vigor-
ously.
Protection to American industries and Amer
lean labor. free ballot and fair connt and the
granting OF pensions to those deserving Mr.
Harrison pronounced to be the cardinal doctrines
of the Republican party By the message OF
President Cleveland and later by the tariff bill
presented by the Democratic committee on
ways and means the Democratic party has &C
last shown its true position the tariff Ques-
ton. Before, nothing but evasive phrases had
been given out representing the Democratic
doctrine upon the tariff; but now it has shown
itself as being the enemy of the laborng classes.

cerned The recent utterances Of
some of the prominent Southern
Senators npon the pension questi on we're re-

and forcibly the fact that the opposition to
pension legislation was not much from the
spirit of economy from the fact that con-
federate soldiers were debarred from participant

congratulated upon securing such an able
speaker TO address the people just. it were,
upon the opening of the campaign. Although

A MILKY WAY.

The assertion has been made that modern
fiction writers are left to thresh old straw, all
the dramatic features of life having been
seized upon and used by the early masters, but
occasional literary developments show that
this is erroneous. A contributor to Cali
fornia magazine bases tale upon occur
renee which, there is reason TO believe, has
never figured before in dramatic literature.
The story is of two young lovers, who mar
ried and lived upon a farm in rural felicity.
Their idyllc bliss was marred only by the
necessity of securing a modicum of hard cash
earthly burden, a mortgage. A cloud. dim
and impalpable, gradually came over their
happiness; the husband showed what novelists
call an inclination to retire into himself. The
wife did not understand the trouble, but
went on her way, shedding sunshine
about her-another story-writer phrase-in
innocent ignorance of the awful blow that
was to fall upon her. At last it fell The
minister and one of his deacons called. They
accused her of crirne-a dark and mysterious
offense which for long while they hesitated
to name, so terrible was it. Finally they
spoke The owner of the cheese factory had
tested the milk that came from their farm,
and had found that it was watered! It was
she handled that milk and attended to its
sale, therefore she must be guilty, and must
come before the church for discipline. If
she confessed, the sin might be pardoned,
but, if not, then she must be cast into outer
darkness. The wretched woman realized at
once the dreadful situation. The husband
had watered that milk that she might have
more pin money. 1t was all for her sake, aud
she would save him. The scene between
husband and wife must be passed over here,
but finally he agreed to accept her sacrifice.
She was hauled before the church tri-
bunal, and he sat by her side.
She made no reply OF defense to the charge of
her accusers, and faltered only when the
awful decree barring her out of fellowship
with the men and women around her fell
upon her ears. It stirred the husband, too.
His manliness was to be crushed by sin and
temptation no longer. He arose and con-
fessed that it was he who watered the milk,
and then, overcome by shame and remorse,
fell upon the floor in spasm and died in his
wife's arms.
1t is thrilling tale and should be read
and pondered by every milkn1an. 1t is story
with moral, and the moral covers territory
that reaches from Maine to California, and in
cludes Indianapolis.
1t should be explained that the scene of the
narrative Is placed in New York village, and
it may also be added that if the California
aderssbelieve that such tragic affairs are
common in the dairy districts they woe
fully mistaken. The conditions all pres
ent, the milk, the water, the honest dairy
man, and the churches, but the combination
seldom includes more than the two elements
