The people who have been kept away from
the Indian encampment on account OF the
unsatisfactory means OF reaching 1t will be
satisfied as soon as ii stops raining. Mar
tin Dodge is on the grounds to construct
a patent steel covered" roadway thirty feet
wide which will afford a more satisfactory
means OF access. Some improvements Will
also be made in the lighting facilities and
visitors will be able to see the Indians
under decidedly more satisfactory circum-
stances.
1t is evident that considerable interest in
the exposition is being developed in Toledo
and surrounding territory. A letter just
received by The Bee from j. T.. GunCkel
passenger agent Of the Lake Shore road at
Toledo, says that between 400 and 800 peo-
pie will certainly come TO the exposition
from northwestern Ohio for Ohio day, Oc'
tober 5. OF this number a party of nearly
200 will come from the city of Toledo. anc

Wednesday. This is Shriners' day and as
number Of attractive features have been
provided 1t promises to be the big day OF
the week.
1t was another bad day for the Indians
and few of them stirred outside of their
tepees. Even the shows on the Midway
had no attractions for them, as they pre-
ferred to sit around their fires to ventur-
Ing out in the mud and rain.

Emma Christensen's As,aiIant.

The brute who kidnapped 10-year- old Emma
Christensen OF S07 Pacific street and Grim
inally assaulted her after taking her in a
stolen phaeton to lonely spot in the woods
in Sarpy county near Albright has been
traced to Avery. Late Friday night after
leaving the child alone on the road in the
mud and rain the man was seen running
across Kokes pasture near the boarding
house OF William Smith at Avery Later he
appeared at the Smith house for supper.
II was given TO him and he paid for It, after
which he left the house. AS he left he said
he would return to remain over night, but
he did not. Mr.. Smith reported the man 8
visit to his house feeling confident that he
is the man as he has in every fitted the
description OF the child's abductor published
in The Bee. While he was at his meal
Mr.. Smith tried to engage the man in con-
versaton, but he would not talk. He ap-
peared Ill at ease, Smith said, and would
occasionally glance apprehensvely in the di-
rection Of the door as though expecting some

SOLDIERS START FOR HOME

Away on Their Furlough.
CAMP MElKLeJ0HN NEARLY DESERTED

10 DO Garrison Duty-FiNe More
Sick Taken TO st. Jo-

The hard rain of Monday morning could
not prevent the soldiers Of the Second Ne
braska regiment from pulling out for home
At noon there were not more than 100 sor-
diers left in Camp George d. Meiklejohn
and the bulk of these are the men selected
to remain here with Colonel Bills during
the thirty days furlough to look after the
post. One hundred and twenty soldiers and
a half dozen officers will stay here.
There was no ceremony about the depart
ure of the men. As Uncle Sam did not have
charge OF their homeward transportation
there was nothing official about their going
out, and they left whenever they pleased.
They were paid off Sunday afternoon, and
some of them feft for home on Sunday even
ing. The great majority, however, did not
leave until Monday morning At all of the
railroad stations they could be seen buying
| tickets and boarding the first westbound
trains going near their respective homes.
All of the railroad companies allowed the
soldiers half rates, so they bought round
! trip tickets for the regular oneway fare.
A few Of the men remained in town to
spend a few days at the exposition, and
a number spent the morning about town
| waiting for the afternoon trains to carry
them back to the old folks at home.
| Camp Discipline in Force.
The garrison of 12O men left at Camp
| Meklejohn lounged about their company
quarters yesterday in no very cheerful frame
Of mind. Either they had no home to well
come them or they had been kept from fol-
lowing their comrades by the drawing OF the
lot, and in either case the desertion of the
| post and the state of the weather made the
surroundings rather dismal. Another bur
den was the return to camp discipline
| which has been entirely relaxed during the
| last week. The garrison is now under tn,
| same rules which prevailed at Camp Thomas
and their time is quite fully occupied. EaCf
| company detail of ten men is required tC
| furnish its quota for guard and fatigue duty
| and at other times is required to be withir

sued yesterday only two men daily from

suitable passports.

THE OMAHA DAILY TUESDAY. SEPTEMBER

RADIO politics, somewhat different from the
views brought here by Chairman Towne OF
the silver republicans, particularly the affair
OF the killing OF a Mckinley republican at
Colorado Springs recently. Said he:
The remarkable thing about the situation
in Colorado is the practical abandonment
OF Senator Teller by the so-called silver re-
publlcans, indicating that the silver anti
Mckinley republicans will be pretty lonely
set in 1900. The elimination of feeling
which led to the murder of a Mckinley
republican in the Colorado Springs opera
house has a deeper significance than most
people realize. To my mind the crack Of
that rife means the approaching death of
the free silver craze just as the attack on
Lovejoy however unrecognized at the mo-
ment meant a elimination OF feeling which
brought about the speedy abolition of slav-
ery There can be no doubt but that there
is a weakening of the free silver sentiment
in Colorado. The tremendous Increase OF
the gold products Of the state has OF course,
contributed to this result, but, Independent
OF this, the thinking men Of the state are
gradually realizing that the gold standard,
whether for good or for i'll, is fact TO
which we must all accommodate ourselves.
As soon as there is sufficient moral courage
to lead men to speak out their views freely
and frankly the whole agitation, which has
been so disastrous to the interests Oh our
own state, will vanish
Fred Dubois on Idaho.
An interested spectator Of the debates
and probably a participant will be ex-Sen-
ator Fred Dubois OF Idaho. He got in yes
terday and soon found Mr.. Towne's quar-
ters at the Paxton. Senator Frank Petit
grew OF South Dakota. being indisposed. has
sent word that he cannot come.
"The republicans Of Idaho" said Mr.
Dubois, ARE more honest than those OF
Utah. The Utah republicans declared in
their platform for the independent free
| coinage Of silver at 16 to l, but the repub-
| licans OF Idaho came out flat-footed for the
| gold standard. In our state the democrats
and the silver republicans have united on
one ticket, but the populists have split and
! have two separate tickets in the field. The
numerical strength though, of the com
bined democrats and silver republicans IL
much greater than that OF the gold re-
publcans and populists all put together"
General A. ]. Warner OF Ohio, president
of the American Bimetallic union, came II
last night and, weary with travel, lost nj
time in finding his room at the Paxton
He explained that the American Bimetallit
union is not a separate party, being or
ganized merely for the purposes OF silve
propaganda and that members OF all par
ties, with the exception Of the gold STANDARD
republicans, belong to 1t.

superior to those which have been issued to
previous expositions. The design is sur

Politics in New Jersey.

Congressman Fowler is serving his second
term in congress as the representative OF
the Eighth district OF his state. The nom
mating convention of that district will be
some time in October and though Mr.. Fow-
Ter does not say so, his friends think he
is sure of denomination. He discussed New
Jersey politics somewhat, saying:
For democratic state which voted against
Abraham Lincoln, and which had not elected
republican governor for thirty years until
Griggs, Mr.. McKinley's present attorney
general, was elected in the last campaign,
New Jersey did pretty well for Mckinley.
1t gave him $1,000 majority. We think IT
will do as well this year. The republicans
there feel very much gratihed over the re-
! suit OF the war and the business conditions
are good which is always a presage Of re-
publican success. Foster NJ. Voorhees,, who
has been acting governor since Griggs' ap-
polntment. will get the nomination for gov
ernor and there is not the slightest doubt
OF his election. New Jersey is one OF the
strongest gold standard states.

The accident which cost Mr.. Bayard his

in the navy and, arriving at Naples a

The party had reached the summit OF
the mountain when suddenly there was
a shower of red-hot stones thrown high
in the air. All hands took to their heels
and a few moments later discovered
that Mr.. Bayard was lying on the ground
behind them. One of the heavy hot
stones had struck him on the arm, max

back to Naples and given the tenderest
nursing hut he died, and his body is

A strange thing about the accident was
the fact that Mr.. Bayard was loath te
