A GREAT DETECTIVE.
A Man Whose Name is Known
 All Over The World.
An Important Matter That Ought to be
 Known and Understood.
What He Has to Say About It in His
 Usual Enthusiastic Way.

A man we'll known all over the world and whose name is terror to criminals and evil doers everywhere, is Robert Bruce, head and general superintendent of the great Bruce's American Detective Agency, which has it's headquarters at 129 La Sale Street, Chicago.
 Mir Bruce is a great worker; nothing escapes his keen and active mind, and like most men who are enterprising and tireless m their business, he has over worked his brain, and kept his nerves upon such a strain and tension, that diff faculties resulted. In fact he felt that relaxed, weakened and enervated condi- tion of mind and body which results in insomnia-that sleepless, restless wakeful and disturbed condition which, unless arrested so surely results in dire disaster to mind, brain and body.
 In chatting with the great detective, your reporter saw with glance that it was with no invalid with whom he was talking. His bright eyes, fresh complex ion and enegetic manner showed at once that he was again in the best of health. Naturally the change in his condition became the subject of conversation.
 II suffered from insomnia for eight years," he said, "but three bottles of Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy completely restored me. This remedy is worth its weight in gold.

IT is agreed by all parties who have considered the matter that Dr Nansen is about to undertake the most perilous adventure in the north polar sea that has ever been planned. He is to try to find out whether there is a current that creates an open sea around the north pole. He has been encouraged to un- dertake this expedition because a bit of wreckage of the Jeanette has been carried from one quarter of the Arctic ocean by the currents to the opposite side. If this can be carried, he argues that he can make the passage himself. He proposes to take six years for his expedition, and believes that in this time he can settle all the problems which have not yet reached fruition concerning the true condition of the north polar sea.

see no way out You follow one road half the distance, then, finding it winds too much, go back and start upon an other. With practice, maybe, a man can judge quickly his best course, just as an experienced trapper will scent by instinct his route through new coun- try; but young author will sometimes sketch his play out in at least dozen different forms before he feels that he has achieved the best of which he Is capable. The structure decided upon, and the characters clear before your eyes, the writing of the dialogue is tol- erably simple. All that you have to remember is that every word must be to the point; that every sentence must be interesting in itself, and at the same time fit and proper to the character into whose mouth it is put; that every speech must be opposite to the one that has gone before it and preparatory to the one to follow; that your conyersa- tion must be witty, crisp, and humor- ous Cor your public will go to sleep over it)j philosophical and deep tor your earnest student will rise up in wrath against it); natural, and also brilliant tor your critic will have none of it).
 would that those writers who spend so large proportion of their three score years and ten upon this earth in sneering at the drama and all connect ed herewith could be made now and again to sit down and write play. Ii it did no other good it would at all events teach them to check their yer bosity. When all is done it remains tc persuade manager (against his better iudpment1 to accept the play and to add ten years to your life by months rehearsals. Then, if your work grati- fies the gallery boy who has paid for his seat, and likewise satisfied the yearn- ings of the superior person who has come in with an order; if it pleases the middle-class party in the pit and the smart" contingent in the stalls; fasci- mates the new school of playgoers and does not offend the old. you may hope to escape from hooting; and the critic may earn a five-pound note by picking out and parading every fault the piece | contains.

would not be without is if it cost ten times as much.
 ''I have recommended it to some of my friends and they are also delighted with the results obtained from it's use May Dr. Greene live long and continue to manufacture Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy for suffering mankind"
 We do not wonder at MT. Bruce's en- thusiasm. Lack of sleep kills. It racks braIn and nerves. It unhinges and un- strings our nervous energi es, It trans forms strong person into a weak one. If we can eat and sleep well, we can maintain good health.
 The writer well knows the wonderful power of Dr Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy to produce the most restful, ,invigorating and refreshing sleep besides making our nerves strong and steady as steel. It does not act like ar opiate, but rather by it's strengthening and vigorating effects upon brain anC nerves. It is perfectly harmless also, being made from pure health-giving vegetable medicines. It is safe to give to infants and children of any age. Al druggists keep it for $t00, and it is in deed a God-send to sufferers from weak nerves and insomnia.
 It is one of the so-called patent medi cines, but the discovery and prescription of Dr. Greene, of 35 w. 14th Street New York, physician who has made his name famous as the most sucC essfu specialist in the treatment of nervous and chronic diseases, and who can bt consulted free of charge, either by call ing upon him or by writing him.

BOLT IN THE ALLIANCE
Dissatisfied Delegates Decide
 to Withdraw.
A NEW PARTY TO BE ORGANIZED

Alleged by the Secedars That the Con vention Was Captured by NIemb.rs oI
 the Peoples Party, Who Arranged a
 Slate of Officers to Suit Themselves.
 MEMPHIS, Tenn, Nov. 19.-The knot in the Farmers Alliance has eliminated in bolt and those opposed to the Peoples Party capturing the body, held caucus and concluded to form new association embodying the doctrines of the Alliance, but holding aloof from politics.
 The Taubeneck crowd having captured the conferene, many of the delegates re- fused to attend the executive session. They got together and effected tempo rary organization and began to shape matters for the issuance of manifesto
 Dr. McCune makes the following state ment:
 ''I withdrew from the convention hall because the National Committee of the Peoples Party have come here and are attempting to secure control of the Ali ance. They have used foul means and have gone as far to make up slate of officers.
 Considering that these men were in control of the convention and hal deter mined to carry out their measures con trary to all Alliance traditions and prin- ciples withdrew from the hall a0.t shall remain out as long as such methods are being used to divert the purpose of the Alliance. The delegates who left the | hall felt the same as l did about the matter"
 "Does this mean that you will try tC | form those thinking you do into { ! separate organizationT
 | Not necessarily; put if such an assoct l tiOn is formed the demand for 1t is from the people who don't care to see the l principles advocated by the Farmers Al l liance go to naught because designing politicians have succeeded in capturing | the present organization. Taubeneck and half & dozen national committem men of the Third party have held secret ses sions here daily, and so far have shaped l the entire policy of the organization | through their too Is on the convention | floor"
 MT. McCune retired into another room where the bolting delegates had assem bled, and the work of mapping out { programme of action was begun.
 Additional details of Thursday nights secret session are leaking out Tillman of this State, called Scott a liar and coward. Scott started toward him, ano half a dozen hands reached for hil pockets. Scott was pulled away.
 Gov. Buchanan made a remark thai was not pleasing to a delegate and the latter rushed at the Governor with baseball bat used by the sergeant at-arm to keep the peace. He was pulled away
 The election of officers resulted in the choosing for another term of H. L Loucks of South Dakota. The Thirt Party slate was not bi oken. I. E. Can O New York and H. c. DemiDg of Pennsyl vania are on the executive board.
 A number of these deleg ates insist tha as soon as they return to their homes ant announce the result of the action of tn convention to their State Alliances that
 withdrawal from the National body vii at once take place and a new order vii
 be formed.
 Louck's opponents held meeting an'
 issued a manifesto against the method of the Third Party men, accusing thel of an attempt to disrupt the order.

ABOUT PLAYWRITING.
The Peculiar Methods Pursued by
 Jerome E. Jerome.
The Hardest But Most Interesting Part of the Dramatist's WOrk-Whereln the . Humorist Differs from Other
 Makers of Plays.

You ask me: ''How write play?'
 and I know that my answer is to be
 published and widely circulated, and,
 In all probability, commented upon i(neverely) in the press. Under these
 circumstances, writes Jerome K. Jerome
 to the editor of the Pall Mall Budget,
 am in doubt whether my better policy
 is to be smart or truthful. The latter
 course comes more natural to me, how
 ever, and therefore adopt it. In the beginning an idea occurs to me that
 seems to me to promise drama. It may
 come to me out of book1 or from a
 scrap of overheard conversation, or from an after-dinner anecdote, or bu- man history near to me. In ninety
 nine cases out of a hundred the idea
 fades from my memory, and I spend days trying to recall it, but cannot. It is always the best ideals that escape.
 The other idea (the very weakest Of the hundred) remains to me, and roots itself securely in my thoughts and grows there in some mysterious way of its own accord; SO that find myself unconsciously pondering upon it and arguing with myself about it. Then, If I have nothing else better to oc- cupy myself with at the time, I decide to set seriously to work
 and make a play out of it; and I seek among the people have met CT dreamt of for characters that will carry out the drama now have pretty clear ly sketched out in my mind. This is the wrong way to write a play, know.
 ought to conceive the characters first, and evolve the drama out of them. All
 the great dramatists work according tc
 this method. I appear to be the only one who does not. With the characters
 and tho skeleton of the story in my
 hands, proceed to construct" or, ir other words, to arrange my story in the
 acts and scenes through which 1t car
 best be told. This find both the hard
 est and the most interesting part of the work. One casts, recast, and casts
 again. One day your path seems to lit | plain and clear before you to the end
 By the next, impossible rocks have
 'xisen across your path, md you car

The Growth of Methodlsn.

The phenomenal growth of the Meth odist church must be very gratifying to the members of that aggressive denom- ination. A recent report of the Church Extension society shows that last year there were 25, S61 Methodist organiza- tions in the United States, 22, ,S44 church edifces, with a seating capacity of 6, 3O2, ,7OS for the accommodation of a mem bership of 2,24O,354. In 20 years the society has disbursed S4, 800, ,OOO, giving aid to 8,31O churches. Churches are now being built at the rate of three per day.

NEARLY all the so called "endowment orders" in Massachusetts have failed, and there is comparatively nothing left to be divided among the deceived mem- bers. An exchange says that the total loss will be about $10 0000,000. This IS a very serious matter when it is remem- bered what a large percentage of this sum was wheedled from working men and women by the falsehoods of pro- motors and agents of these concerns. Our own state suffered rather severely from the collapse, as many of the swindlers had branched out into Con- necticut and other states. If the legis- lature desires to sIgnaliZe itself as doing most laudable act let it.make it state prison ofTense for any ..suth transparent humbugs to again attempt to gain a footing here. All the bunco men that
 have operated since E,Columbus dis covered Americai have not robbed the people in the aggregate to such an eX-
 tent as have these hypocritical "endow- ment" frauds. By artfully picturing to their victims the advantages of sys- tematic saving, they induced them to intrust small sums of money to these orders monthly, or quarterly, promising very large returns. Precisely where these returns were to come from was never clear. The managers at the ''home offices seem to have been the
 principal men to get the large returns. It is inconceivable how Massachusetts
 could have ever legalized this shady
 and disastrous business. Scores of short term orders seem to have sprung up in
 night, and to have reaped a vast har. vest. Boston and the adjacent cities
 are their nesting places. As most oi
 them were doomed to be wrecked
 sooner or later 1t is perhaps better that
 the end has come to most of them as soon as it has. Their lives were briei and dishonorable. Let us have no more
 of them.

ABOUT AN EXTRA SESSION.


 It is understood that President-elect Cleveland will not call an extra session of congress, unless the republican senate shall at the coming session by hanging up or defeating some necessary appro- priation or measure compel him to do so. He is opposed to an extra session of congress, believing that it would be bad business as well as bad politics, as in deed do many other democrats who were at first inclined to think it good policy to hold an extra session for tariff legislation. It would not be surprising if an attempt were made in the senate to make an extra session necessary by leaving undone things that ought to be done. This could be done by parlia- mentary chicanery, at which the repub- lican senators are adopts.
 Senator Carlisle is quoted as saying in regard to the mattar that the tariff alone will not furnish sufficient reason for an extra session. The fnan- cial affairs of the government may be such as to make an extra session im- perative. It appears probable that we shall find that there is not enough money in the treasury for the needs of the government. There is a situation in the treasury which every thoughtful man who has considered the matter hf s long foreseen. There is an accumula- tion of deficiencies and obligations that have been contracted and will come over to us. It may be that this situa- tion will furnish reason enough why an extra session should be called. We shall have to see what is done at this session of congress. If the Sherman silver law be not repealed, and other action, such as the situation demands, taken, we may be swamped. Upon these things depend the calling of ar extra session.
 l Representative Wilson of West Vir l ginia, who presided over the convention which nominated MT Cleveland, is ont of the strongest advocates for the hold ing of an extra sessisn. He says: ThC true worth and value of tariff bill can not be tested in a short time, and tn, first effects appear to be sometime what they really are not. I think i would be most impolitic to place a new tariff bill before the country just pre- vious to the elections of 1884. For thi reason favor the extra session idea and think the sooner the proposed tariff changes go into effect the better will the final result be for our party.
