A ROSE--LOVE.

At early morn plucked rose,
Twas purely white;
| gave it to my lady fair,
Who placed it III her nut brown hair
To wear till night.
AT noon the rose again saw,
1t still was fair;
My love gave me a smile so sweet,
cast my heart before her feet.
And left it there.
Again at night saw the rose
All withered lie;
But Loves strong cord had bound each
heart
In close bonds, which SHAH no: part
Though flowers may die.

Won MOLTKE DEAD.
The Great Prussian General and States.
man Dies Suddenly at an Ad.
vanced Age.
Failure of the Hearts Action Ascribed
as the Cause of His
r | Death.

BERLIN. April 25.-Connt Won Moltke,
the great Prussian general, died here to-
night.
He attended the session of the reichstag
held this afternoon. His death was very
sudden and the physicians who were sum-
moned announced that it was caused by
failure of the heart H died at 9:45 D. M,
passing away quietly and painlessly.
The news of the counts unexpected death
has caused great sorrow in this city.
Hellmutb Kari Bernhard Won Moltke was
a direct descendant of John Carve, second
laird of Coll, who was chietain in Scot
land about 1885 In fact he was Maclean
Of the house Mac lain Abrach, his grand
father having been son OF one O. the lairds
OF Coll. The grandfather and one Of his
brothers went as young men to Copenhagen.
Won Molke was born at Parchln, Meek
lenburg, Oct 16 1900. His father was
Danish general, and he was educated at the
cadets academy OF Copenhagen. He en-
tered the Prussian service in 1922, and in
1882 he was admitted to the general staff OF
the Prussian army.
Hellmuth Won Moltke first appeared in
history in 1888. during the war between Tur-
key and her revolving vassal, Ibrahim
Pasha of Egypt. Moltke was then Prus-
sian captain i'll the sultan's camp, mill
tary observer. For two years he had helped
the sultan to effect military reforms, but
when the critical moment came Huziz
Pasha refused to follow Moltkes excellent
counsel to lall back to Biridshik, bring up
reinforcements and risk battle, and the
Turkish army was disgracefully routed at
Nisib, in June, 1889.
Moltke was instinctively first. class chief
OF staff and bold and cautious stratesist.
and his magnificent talents came into full
and effective play in the war against Den
mark in 1864, and with Austria in the
summer Of 1866, the success OF which was
chiefly due to him and to Won Room, the
great army organizer. The battle of Sadowa,
which wrecked the Austrian army, was

THEY EXPEor TROUBLE.
Nebraska Railroad Managers Will Test
the Eight.Hour Law.


the Eight.1our Law.
OMAHA, NEB., July 27.-Ncbraska rail-
road managers are actively engaged in
an effort to defeat the law enacted by
the recent Alliance Legislature, and
which goes into effect August !, making
eight hours q days work.
All the companies have prepared in
structions to their employees, declaring
that they will bc employed and paid by
the hour after August l, 1t is no secret
that organized labor Is opposed to this
scheme, as the eight.hour measure was
fostered by them at the time OF its con-
sideration by the Alliance.
Many OF the companies expect trouble
when their men discover what is being
done. The new law provides penalties
for attempting to avoid its provisions:
and it was only after consideration and
legal advice that the railroad companies
concluded to fight the law. a strike
would force the roads to terms or result
in great damage. The railroad en-
ployes understand the situation.

ST. PETERSBURG, July 27.-The Grand
Duke Alexis banquetted the visiting
French squadron yesterday on board
the Russian flagship Asia. Tho utmost
cordlality prevailed, and the assemblage
S4s brilliant in the extre me.
The Gar alter his visit Saturday to
the French fleet sent u tclegraphic mes

manner.
The NorOs Tremya declares that it is
not Tor the Dreibund and for Lord Sails
bury, but for Russia and France to die
tate their way to Europe. The enthus.
iasm OF the visitors las boon dampened
Gy the absence in the speeches made by
tAe Russians of all references to the Re-
public. This Is explained to them by
iRe statement that the Gar cannot

one Of the Russian party has as yet

Out.
BAR HAnBoR, Me-, July 27.-Col. A.
L. Congcr, of Akron, o., a member of
the National Republican Committee for
that State, and prominent manufac-
turer and business man, spent Sunday
at Bar HORROR and was called upon at
his hotel by Secretary Blaine. Col.
Conger was not at all backward about
talking politics.
Il have been warm friend and ar
dent admircr OF Mr.. Blaine for many
years." he said, "and l am identified
with his interests in Ohio. l am glad
to see that all over the country the en-
thusiasm for Mr.. Blaine is growing fast.
The Western States are anxious to see
him President. The farmers and busi-
ness men are particularly pleased with
his policy Of protection, favored with
reciprocity. While we mean no disre-
spect to Mr.. Harrison we would prefer
to sec Mr.. Blaine President. There is
no doubt at all but that he will receive
the nomination. His strength is great
on the Pacific coast, in the West and
here in New England, and is daily
growing in the Southern and Middle
States. He was never SO popular as
now, and the general feeling among Re-
publicans is that he ought to be in the
White House during the next Admin
istration."
"How do you think Mr.. Blaine is
looking?"
al think he is looking very well, al
though somewhat worried. 1 am very
sorry that such false stories concerning
Mr.. Blaine's health should have been
sent out from here. l have seen Mr..
Blaine constantly in the last eight years
and have often seen him looking much
worse after hard work. I think he
looks as well as could be expected after
his winters work and illness which fol-
lowed"
Colonel Conger is visiting New Eng
land now for business purposes, and
says he merely ran down here to rest
over Sunday. He left town this after
noon, but before he left he received an
other call from Secretary Blaine, who
had a long talk with him.

THE pIGGEsT INGor

Ever Cast In tho United states Made Mt
Homestcad-A Now Sand Mold Process
Tried.
PlrrsDuRdh. Pa, July 27.-Thcro has
just been csst at tho armor plate mill of
Carnegie, Phipps & Co., at Homestead,
an armor ingot eighty inches wide and
twenty-three inches thick weighing
$1,000 pounds, the largest armor plate
rolled in this country. The ingot was
cast in a sand mold for test and the
material proved much superior to that
tested in q metal mold. Heretofore
there has been a great deal Of trouble
casting in metal molds owing to tho
many flaws and the ingot cast in the
sand mold was found not to contain a
single flaw. It is more than likely that
hereafter sand molds for turning out
armor plato ingots will be adopted.
Tim Mckay is the inventor OF the new
process. He is workman at the Home
stead mill.

AGAINST GAMBLING.

Thowesleyan Conference Declares Against
Gaming of All Sorts, Even in Arlsto-
cratic Circles.
LONDON, July 27.-Tho president Of
the Wesleyan conference to-day made
an authoritative statement of the views
of the church on recent social scandals.
He condemned the doctrine that while
cheating was wrong gambling was
right. The Wesleyans, he said, held
that the wrong began with the gam
bling, adding, whether the games OF
chance were practiced in aristocratic or
stock exchange or commercial circles, it
was disgrace to any class of the COM
munity, leading to lamentable conse-
ouences. Churches ought to unite and
obtain legislation to check the evil.
The President also suggested that
among the means to be taken to prevent
gambling is that OF preventing the
newspapers from printing advertise
ments directly tending to promote gam
bling.
In conclusion the President said that
many thousands OF christian voters de-
termined at the coming general election
to put moral questions above party con-
siderations, could return men, free from
moral stain.

KMowooD, W. Va, July 2T.-The
slickest prisoner that has been confined
in the county Jail at this place for a
long time is Frank Wyans, a tramp who
was convicted of house breaking few
monthsag ago. Sheriff Jackson has had
his hands full in taking caro- Of
this bird. He has succeeded in unlock
ing every lock on the jail doors, and be-
fore his trial two months ago, several
prisoners, who were confined in the jail
with him, made their escape, and
this man is believed to have ma
nipulatod false keys, opening the
locks and allowing the other prison.
ors to get away, while he did not
improve the opportunity Of escaping,
claiming his innocence and willingness
to stand trial. His partner, who was
in Jail for tho same oltense, was among
those who escaped, and it is known
that he has been in the neighborhood
and has perhaps aided the man Wyans
in making 20 many false keys.
Several times Sheriff Jackosn found
Wyans out OF his cell, where he had
been locked in by tho most secure
method. Ills habit was to mako wooden
keys and open immense locks which
wero always thought to be proof against
the lock.picker. Tho man has shown
rare skill in making keys and picking
ocksandthcre has seemedtobe no locks
in the prison that could confne this
undRunted prisoner. On Saturday
morning he was released, his term Of
Imprisonment having expired.
Sheriff Jackson supplied him with o
good suit OF clothes and ! pair of shoes,
Ho loaiei about tho town until night,
whom he returned to the homo of Sheriff
jackson and went quietly through the
house and occurred some valuable silver
plate and other valuables and made his
way to Eewburg, this county, before the
robbery was discovered.
Sheriff jackson and q deputy over
took him ut Newburg, and brought him
back to Jail here, where he is more se-
curely confined than ever. 1t is be-
lieved that this man Is n professional
burglar, because of his dexterous use of
tools and ability to pick locks. Some
people here are inclined to believe
that Wyans and his partner
were out in this neighborhood
when captured this spring for the
purpose of robbing the bank here.
This ofensc will undoubtedly send the
man "over the road" The Sheriff said
that the man showed fight when he
arrested him yesterday, and as he is n
very powerful man physically the Sher-
if sees fit to place the irons on his
wrists. The stolen goods were recov-
cred, as Wyans had not disposed OF
them.
