ST. PAUL. MINI, July 2.-The most
sensational manifesto in Minnesota's his
tory was that issued this afternoon by the
silver Republicans, who refuse TO support
Mckinley for President, Clough for Gov
ernor or any of the Republican candidates
for Congress. The prominence of the men
signing it attracts widespread attention.
Among them are Lieutenant Governor
Frank Q. Day, Congressman Charles A.
Towne, ex-Congressman John Lind, State
Senators Morgan, Sanborn, Howard and
Smith. The address is issued to the Re-
puplicans of Minnesota and says:

CHICAGO, uIy z.
A silver sround-swell is bearing down
on Chicago. 1t threatens to submerge the
Democratic party and leave intact only
that portion of it that stands for The white
metal. The gold men are fighting harder
than ever, and when the reserve force from
New York reaches here by special train to-
morrow afternoon this bitter factional
war will be fought to finish on the lines
already mapped out, even if, in the lam
guage of the silent general, it takes all
summer.
There are only four days intervening be-
fore the date on which the Democratic
braves of the country will gather in Ma
tional conclave at the Coliseum. Up to
two weeks ago the great issue was the
platform, and the gravest point the char
acter of the currency plank. ALI other
questions were overshadowed. Candi-
dates were not considered, the more COM
plex problem being whether the conven-
ton would declare for gold alone as q
monetary standard or whether it would
speak out boldly for the free coinage of
both gold and silver at the ratio of 16 to /.
The developments of last week have set
tied the question. The platform of the
Democratic convention is already written.
1t will declare for the free and unlimited
use of silver as money. There will be no
compromise. The silver men are masters
of the situation. They will run things
next week TO suit themselves, even if the
party should forever split on the rock of
financial discord.
The plan of certain silverites is to hold
big caucus on Monday next. This move
ment originated with the Bland mana
gers. They believe that their candidate
would stand better show before such a
gathering than he would in convention
where two-third rule governs. Governor
Stone of Missouri is pushing this PROPOSE
tion and has the support of Governor Alt
geld and the Illinois delegation, but the

BEATRICE, NEBR., July 2.-The Blue
River, as q result OF the heavy rainfall of
yesterday morning, has reached the dam
ger stage, and Is within foot of the high
water mark of 1892. Residents of the west
side were obliged to vacate their homes,
and during the night men in boats were at
work rescuing those who could not get
away. Dana Sleeth was drowned. This is
the only fatality so far as known.
At Wymore twenty-five families are
homeless, water surrounding their houses,
which are flooded. The water is thought
to be receding. and train service to the
north, which was abandoned last night,
will be soon resumed. In the farming
districts crops are submerged and some
livestock drowned.

"LBT DOWN YOUR BUCKETS"
A Strange, True Story of the Sea,
Which Should Bring New Cour-

In the year 1897 small South Ameri-
by fu rious tempest far out OF her
course, after two weeks battling with
winds and waves, found herself floating
almost helpless, reckoning lost and in
what seemed like the middle Of the South
Atlantic Ocean. The small stock of drink
ing water was gone and the little crew
were famishing OF thirst. The captains
wife and baby were aboard and any one
of the crew would cbeerfully have gone
without his own share for the sake of
tue suffering woman and her little one.
1t was Water, water, everywhere, but
not drop to drink
The pangs of thirst are thousand
times worse than hunger, and grow fiercer
and fiercer until the victim is frequently y
driven to madness. 1t was on a morning
When the ere W seemed al near the verge
OF insanity as sane men can be, that
they sighted another vessel, and flying
distress signals which were promptly an

The other captain, framing his mouth

The storm had driven the Eleanora into
the mouth ofthe Amazon river, that might y

This strange, true story furnishes a strik-

wrecked in health, with no apparent pros

despairng: when in reality, il they only
knew the truth, the means OF health and
restoration are close at hand.
Just as the crew of the Eleanora cried for
water, so in all conditions OF disease the
different organs OF the body are crying
mutely for supply OF healthy, nourishiug
