FAREWELL PARTY.

In response to invitations sent to the
many friends of Miss Nellie Madden, Il
large assembla1e gathered at Music Hall
Thursday evening in honor OF the young
lady who has always SO cheerfully and
ably assisted in public socials and enter
tainments. The party was a most en-
ioyable one and a solo was well rendered
by Frel Geogg. Miss Bnlah George and
Miss Zue tieery rendered a duet and
sang very sweetly. Miss Maiden pre-
sided at the piano and her f~avorite in
strumen;al pieces were highly appre-
ciated.
Hon. w. H. A. Pike appeared on the
stage, addressed the audience and
said, in part:
Ladies and gentlemen, and pupils of
Miss Madden you all know we are here
for the purpose of meeting with Miss
Nellie Madden to extend to her our best
wishes, and to wish her God speed in
her new field of labor. We all fully APP
p~reciate how she has labored for the
past three years to make life pleasant
for those around her, assisting in all our
entertainments without expectancy of
reward or a thought of recompence.
How diligently she has laoored with
our children in ~instructing them in
music, and how well she has succeed
ed-her pupils speak for themselves.
l can state here without fear of contra
diction, that there is not another town
in Nevada of the size of Wadsworth,
that can furnish as many young ladies,
as proficient in music, as can this town.
We as parents are justly proud of this
it speaks well for the town. 1t speaks
volumes for our children who are music
ally inclined. Now my.friends, Miss
Madden has concluded that she can do
better in another field. She is going to
leave us. Her place must be filed by
some other, probably some stranger,
and her pupils OF the past three years
feel as though they could not let her de-
part without indicating in some way
their love and regard for her. For this
purpose they have purchased this
beautiful emblem CT friendship golden
finger ring set in diamonds and emeralds.
And now, Miss Madden, in behalf of
your former pupils, l present you with
this token of their endearing friendship,
and trust, that as in future years this
golden band which encircles your finger,
so will their love and kindly regard
entwine itself around your heart, and
that you will ever look back to the many
days spent in this beautiful Riverside
town with naught but thoughts of hap
pincss and feeling OF love. May your
path be strewn with the flowers of pros
perity, is, l assure you, the wish of
your numerous friends.
Delicious ice cream and cake was then
served, which struck everybody just
right.
Before departing Miss Madden's class
sang a departing song and then all
present bid her a goodnight.
Miss Madden will depart for her new
home in Grass Valley soon after the
Fourth.

The GLORIOUS FOURTH.

Just one week from today comes the
glorious 4th OF July.
To the small boy the time may seem
long, but to the busy man it fits like
lightning.
The sound of hammer and saw ring
ont at the pavilion which is fast near
ing completion.
The grounl Is for the athletic sports
have been put in good shape.
The football team member are not all
crippled but they lack confidence and
need bracing up.
The blseballists feel that they own the
earth and may be without a home after
the fatal day.
The Indians are all alive to the day
and it's sp ,rts and the Fourth is their
topic OF conversation.
The walk to the pavilion takes about
three minutes, part of it is through the
field and the grove is all Chat is required
for beauty and shade.
Everything is assuming shape to give
a pleasant and profitable day to all who
attend.
Next Wednesdays DISPATCH will con-
tain the entire programme OF doings, the
different sports, when and where they
will take place, the prizes offered, and
in fact everything of interest and full in
formation in every way.
We are under many obligations to the
press, particularly that of Reno for their
aid and help.
The Reno Journal kindly says: Wads-
worth people are busy planning and ar
ranging the details OF their coming
Fourth of July celebration. Accomo-
dations will be arranged for all visitors
and every effort made to make their So
journ at Wordsworth a visit of pleasure
and benefit.
The ball on the night of the Sd under
the auspices OF the Railway Trainmen
will be a grand beginning OF the cele-
bration and the following days program
will be filled with entertaining and novel
features.
The committees are hard at work and
propose to have everything go in sys-
tematic order, SO that no confusion or
dissatisfaction will occur. Many are
| going from Reno and it ia to be hoped
that our sister town will have a rousing
benefit.
"The sentiment that we should spend
the coming Fourth of July with our
neighbors in Wadsworth is now a very
popular one. The people of Walsworth
have at all times treated US well on the
occasion of a State, county or town fete
being held in Reno, and the coming
celebration will give as the only oppor-
tunity we have hal or will have to re-
ciprocate. Let us therefore take adj
vantage OF this case and make the people
OF Wadsworth feel that we have appre-
ciated their kindness to US in the past.
They have made arrangements for a very
interesting program, and there is no
question but that their guests will spend
o pleasant day and be glad OF their
visit" says the Reno Gazette.

IN HER OWN COIN.
From the Times-Herald.

The last time the Kendals were here
the Sunday editor of a morning paper
sent a reporter to interview Mrs. Kendall
He was received with great cordiality
The actress chatted about dear Lunnun'
so freely that the newspaper man finally
was emboldend nough to inquir whether
she ever heard OF Peter Blank, mention
ing the name of the proprietor of the
largest general store In the English met
ropolis. The reporter is nephew of the
Englishman about whom he made the in
quiry.
Mrs. Kendall admitted that she had
heard the name before. and added with
an expressive shrug: But of course We
don't know his people, you know-mercy,
no! They are In trade, l believe"
She was kind enough, however, to say
that she fairly dotted on Chicago. She
had been so kindly received here, and the
people whom she had met were so charm
ing. She would always remember Mrs.
Lake Shore as the most delightful wo-
man she had ever known. And Mr.. and
Mrs. Prairie Avenue! and Mrs. Calumet

delightful people. all of them. Did the re-
porter know them?
WELL" he said slowly, 1--WE heard
their names before, think; but of course,
you know, have never met them-mercy,
no! They are all in trade I believe"

Now for Good Times.

There Is q lesson in connection with
this happy result which may be taken
home to each individual citizen. and it
is the need of a prompt and vigorous
putting forth of personal energy for the
early improvement of businesses. The
atmosphere is now cleared, and effec-
tually cleared for the future; CONNER
cial activities, long dormant, will
hencefOrth see hope and assurance in
front of them, and it will be the peo-
pies own fault if they do not speedily
find themselves on a fair road to pros
perity.
For years this financial question has
acted as clog to needed work in con-
gress. For months 1t has put damper
on every form and phase of business
enterprise in the whole country, and
has weighted down all honest industry
with it's load of apprehension and
dread. Now the danger is lifted; the
obstacle has been removed; doubt can
end, and its dissipation ought to pro-
duce in all quarters beneficial results.
Let the howlers cease their turmoil;
let the recuperative forces of society
have room and chance for full play
in the work of rebuilding. 1t may be a
slow process. One can get sick great
deal faster than he can get well. But 1t
will be a sure one IL good citizens every
where will help it along
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1896-11-04

Now that the battle is over, a word
or two about the losers will not be out
of order. 1t is, we think, not putting
1t too strongly to say that the most
remarkably personality developed by
this most remarkable of campaigns was
the young leader of the vanaushed.
William Jennings Bryan. We ask our
readers to think of him, for a moment
not as the representative of vicious or
fallacious doctrines, but simply as a
human being called practically without
notice or preparation to the leadership
Of great host of voters, and then soon
left by the old hands I'm the Democratic
campaign business to fight his own bat
tie. without money, without assist
ant speakers of any consequence, and
without the support of more than n
very small fraction of the influential
newspapers of the country.
1t has been said that Bryan should
have kept still. That is a matter of
opinion; but had he done so It would
have been equivalent to giving up the
fight. He had no resource save his
voice and his personal presence before
the people. That subtracted from his
campaign, there would not have been
considerable factor left to his &C.

audacious battle was fought. If by any
mishap on the part of. the American
people Bryan had beep elected. it
would have been the sinister hand of
the Illinois apologist for lawlessness
who would have shaped Bryan's course
and been the real intellectual power be-
hind the throne. There can be no
reasonable uncertainty on this point.
His has been the mind behind every
important move lin the recent Demo-
cratic campaign. and his one purpose
has been Altgeld's vindication. He has
played with that solely in view. To
him silver or gold was nothing but
pawns in game. for further personal
power, if that could be secured, but
at any event for a vindication. and he
has not got one.
The man who votes in ignorance for
vicious doctrines, and who is deceived
by false appeals to his misplaced senti-
ment and sympathy can be forgiven;
but in government founded ON popu-
lar suffrage there can be no tolerance
for deliberate and wilful demagogism,
and this is what Altgeld stands for. His
exit from the stage of public promin-
ence and official responsibility will be
enthusiastically welcomed by every
law biding and discriminating citizen.
Perhaps you will notice that behind

Next to the election of Mckinley and
Connell the most gratifying feature of

the defeat Of John p. Altgeld for the
governorship Of Illinois, the loss to the
Democrats Of the Illinois legislature,
thus shutting off the possibility of his
election to the United States Senate,
and consequently his enforced retire.

Altgeld has been the brains of this

he who laid the lines on which this

The LO:al Result.

The principal lesson of the local re-
turns is that personal abuse and dema-
gogical howls against industry and sue
cess have had their day as campaign
weapons and are now about played out.
There was very little reason from the
first to fear that this staunch indus
trial district would falter in its alleg-
lance to Protection. There was not
much greater reason to apprehend that
it would exhibit favor for the half
value dollar. The only point for APP
prehensiOn was as to the effectiveness
blushing play to social discomfort; and
the returns show than even this appre-
hension can now be set at rest
The election to congress of William
Connell is gain to the district rather
than TO him. Its main significance
apart from its identification with ma
tional issues, is that there Is still re-
spect and confidence among the mass
es of the people for a stewardship Of
honestly acquired wealth which has
'NN' WIN Juot Noii'Cp-
tions of its obligations to the cOmmun-
ity: that there is continued esteem for
upright character despite the detrac-
tion of the envious, the malicious and
the ungrateful; that, in short, the fair
ness of the people is to be relied upon
to render in due time just verdicts no
matter how systematic or unscrupulous
is the effort at times to poison their
judgment.
Coupled with all this Is q handsome
compliment to the present board of
commissioners, whose recollection was
nothing less than Justice: and a vivid
demonstration that Lackawanna coun-
ty has passed permanently into the
Republican column. 1t is upon the
whole not more than we expected; but
1t is still result which justifies pro-
found thankfulness to the various fac
tors which contributed to it.
The original Mckinley man will now
please forward his address.

EDISON's PRESENT TASK,
From the Times-Herald.

FrOm the T1meS-HefaId.
Edison has accomplished so much In
the line of revolution that it is popularly
believed he has made no failures in that
direction; but the truth is that he has
been at work for years upon several
hard problems which seem to be no
nearer solution today than they were
when he began For the last seven years
he has been trying to derive electricity
directly from coal without going through
the usual process of heat, steam power
and dynamo. There's enough latent eicc-
trical energy in a pound of coal to carry
it across the Atlantic" he said the other
day, yet we have never been able to
utilize more than a very small fraction
of it. i know how to get electricity from
coal direct, but don't know yet how to
get enough of it,

Letter from William Connell.

Editor of The Tribune:
Sir:--I wish to take this early occa-
sion of returning my sincerest thanks to
the citizens of Lackawanna county for
the splendid majority which they have
given me as their choice for representa-
tive in congress. 1t exceeds my expec-
tations as much as ! fear it goes beyond
my deserving. I do not interpret this
vote as expressing merely a personal
compliment. for the occasion was one
where principle clearly rose paramount
to personality. And yet l should gain
little satisfaction from this election and
go to my new work at Washington with
small relish did l not feel that in some
measure at least the majority cast yes
terday was a vote of confidence in the
candidate no less than vote of in
dorsement for the principles of which
he stood as the temporary representa-
tive. Very truly,
William Connell.
