with bright smile and say, II will soon
be at home with Jesus and the angels." "
And, to her loved ones she would say,
81 will watch for you to come where
there will be no more parting"
As we gathered around the beautiful
white casket strewn with flowers, gifts
from loving hearts, how appropriate the

Will Have Two State Conventions.
Silver and Anti-SiIyer

Omaha, April 19.-The democrats Of
Nebraska held their county conventions
to elect delegates to the state convention
yesterday. The two wings of the party
continue to remain quite distinct. Those
counties in which the silver wing con-
trolled the regular convention sent dele
gates to the state convention to meet in
Lincoln April 3D.
Where the so-called administration
forces We're in the majority, the delegates
were accredited to the convention OF
April 20.
The silver interests probably secured
the largest number of regular delegates.
In each instance the wing defeated in
regular county convention will secure del
egates favorable to their cause in mass
convention.
