TWO SISTERS DROWNED.
Daughters of Rev. II. ID. Goodrich of Cam
bridgeport, VT.

Bellows Falls, VT, July 12-The lit
tie village of Cambridgeport, seven
miles from here, is in mourning to-day
over a terrible drowning accident. The
victims are the two daughters of the
Rev. f. A.. Goodrich-Rosabel, aged
eighteen, and Lillian, aged twenty both
graduates of the State Normal school,
About II o'clock yesterday morning
the girls told their father they were
going walking About 8 o'clock, the
daughters not returning, the father and
mother went to the river near by and
soon found the body of one daughter
in shallow water near the shore. A
searching party was organized and af-
ter some time the body of the other
daughter was found in twelve feet of
water.
Both had evidently been dead for
some hours The bodies were clad in
improvised bathing suits, which indi-
Gated a sudden determination to go to
the river for a frolic. They were ex-
tremely bright and attractive girls,
having graduated with high honors.
Both expected to teach the coming year.
One had already been engaged for a
school in Springfield. Fears are enter
tanned that Mrs. Goodrichs mind may
give way under the terrible blow.

Candidate Bryan Seeks Relief From Inn
Fortunate Politicians.
Chicago, July 12-Exhausted by the
exactions attendant upon his nomina-
tion for the presidency, William ]. Bry-
an escaped last night from the import
unate crowd of congratulatory demo-
Gratis and convention politicians, and
found rest and privacy in the home of
a family friend. He accepted the invit-
alton of Mrs. Lyman Trumbull, widow
of the recently deceased statesman,
with whom he had studied law, and
went to the old-fashioned homestead
at No. 40S Lake avenue, accompanied
by his wife and their three children
Mr.. Bryan was so tired that it was at
ternoon when he arose.
Early in the afternoon Senator Jones,
chairman Of the national committee
Arthur Sewall, the vice presidential
nominee. and another Mr.. Jones, who
was chairman of the last democratic
state convention in Arkansas, called to
pay their respects, but politics was not
discussed.
Mr.. Bryan said he had made no ap-
pointment with any one for the day or
evening, and would take all the rest he
could get He went driving with Sena-
tor Jones and Mr.. Sewall in the after
noon, and after dinner drove with Mrs.
-Trumbull and Mrs. Bryan to Oakwood
cemetery, not far from the Coliseum, to
visit the grave of Mr.. Trumbull, to
whom Mr. Bryan was devotedly at
cached. He retired early.

BRYAN,S NEIGHBORS
Will Make His Home Coming Memoir
able Occasion.

Lincoln, Neb., July 12.-There was a
feeling of keen disappointment among
Lincoln people when they learned this
morning that the democratic commit
tee had determined to have the two
candidates of the party formally noti-
fled of their nominations at New York
city instead of at their respective
homes. This determination will not,
however have any effect on the dem
anstration and reception of Mr.. and
Mrs Bryan on their return.
at the melting last night it was
agreed to make it an entirely nom
partisan affair, and this is emphasized
by the fact that in the different COM
mites leading republicans dominate
mittesin the membership. Excursions
will be run to the city from every
point in the state, and the delegations
will be present from Colorado, Iowa,
Kansas and Missouri. The nomina-
ton of Mr. Bryan was referred to by
the pastors to-day at the different
churches, notably the First Presbyteri-
an. of which the nominee is member.
All reference was Of congratulatory
nature.

CRETAN I'M BROGLLO.
Powers In Interest Evidently Regard the
Danger Point Passed.

Berlin, July 12-With Prince Loba-
noff -Rostovsky, Russian minister of
foreign affairs, in Switzerland, whittier
he will go this week from st. Peters,
burg, Prince Hohenlohe, the German
chancellor, at his chateau in Atl-Aus-
see, Australia, the King of Greece at
Aix-les-Bains, for which place he Is
about to start for three weeks So
journ, the czar on the eve Of visiting
the European capitals, and all Of the
rulers contemplating holidays, there
will be cessation of agitation in the
east This Is the official impression
here.
DR.. Nicoladoes, the official represent
ative of the Cretan reform committee,
who is now in Berlin, distrusts the pres
ent comparative calm and regards it
merely as brief truce before the
breaking out Of the storm. The only
chance of permanent peace in Crete, he
declares, is in the Intervention of the
powers and the granting of a tonomy
to the island.
Apart from the opinion expressed by
DR.. Nicolades, advices have been re-
ceived here from Canae to the effect
that although the Christian deputies
will attend the opening of the session
of the Cretan assembly tomorrow, they
do not intend to engage in debate with
the Moslem deputies, but will present
to Berovitch Georgi Pasha, the newly
appointed Christian governor of Crete,
who will preside, a document setting
forth the claims of the Christian Gre
tans, to which will be added a demand
for universal suffrage and the recog-
milton of a Cretan flag with the cross
thereon.
They will give the porte a short time
in which to respond to these demands.
and if the porte's reply shall be unfa-
vorable, as it certainly will be. the
Christian deputies will constitute an
Independent assembly In the mean
time the insurgents will seize the ad-
vantage afforded by the Turkish troops
being forced into inactivity and occupy
all Of the strategic points in the island.
