One of the most interesting fea-
lures on exhibition at Hagenback's
famous Wild Animal Show now at
the Omaha Exposition is an inn
inense Boa Constructor. 1t is re-
corded that in ancient days these
terrible serpents have been known
to keep an army at bay because of
their deaply crushing power. The
boa constructor resembles the py-
thion in it's habits, and is properly
an inhabitant of Brazil, though
specimens have been found in re-
mote parts of the old world

ton of the excellent service she has
rendered the church and communi-

choir during the past year. Mrs.
Carmichael is proficient musician
and thoroughly in love with her
work. Her untiring efforts in be-
half of classic and refined music
has done much to improve the
character and tone of music in the

odist people are to be congratulated
upon having having such an excel

THE DISTRICT JUDGESHIP

The Republican convention called
to meet in Madelia June 25th for the
purpose of nominating candidate
for Judge for this judicial district has
set the friends of Mr. Lorin Cray and
Mr.. VIM. n. Plymat at work in dead
earnest.
For the first time in some eighteen
years the Republicans have concluded
to place in nomination a candidate
for Judge of their own political per-
suasion. The career of Judge Sever
ance on the bench has been most
honorable and satisfactory. The fact
that he is and always has been an ar
dent Democrat was found to be no
Justification for opposition and term
after term he met with only the warm
support of his political opponents.
Such a course has reflected credit up
on the party, and it is gratifying to
know that no one has more highly ap-
preciated the elimination Of politics
from the judiciary than Judge Sever
ance himself. And it is equally graft
flying to Republicans to know and
feel that their support and considera-
tion has been worthily bestowed, for
no man has occupied judicial posi-
tion in this state more popular with
the masses than Judge Severance.
At this time, however, the party
feels that it's long continued support
of one Of different political persua-
sion will lead to reciprocal considera-
tion on the part of the Democrats,
and that the candidate it will name
next month will be accorded the same
courtesies as have been so long eX-
tended to one of their party faith by
the Republicans. For the sake of
continuing non-partisan judiciary it
is to be hoped that this confidence
may not be misplaced.
There are, so far as indicated at
this writing, only two candidates for
the position-Messrs. Cray and Ply
mat. The Free Press is disposed to
take no special stand in favor of
either Of these worthy gentlemen, be-
lieving that either would make an &C,
ceptable judge. Mr.. Cray is person
ally making no effort. He has a very
large law practice which consumes
his entire time, but he has number
of enthusiastic friends who are acti We
in his interest. On the other hand,
Mr.. Plymat is giving good deal of
his personal time to an active canvass
and proposes to land the prize if pos
sibIe.

The feeling in Austria is very Bit
ter against the United States. 1t is
said to date back to 1928, when Mette-
mich. the master spirit of Austria Of
that day, formed coalition with
Russia, Prussia and France for move
against the SouthAmerican republics,
which had just separated themselves
from Spain, and was warned by Presi-
dent Monroe that they must not in
terfere with affairs in the western
world. Following that was the SYM
pathy shown the aungarians by this
country in their rebellion in 184S, and
more intensified by the ovations given
Kossuth when he visited this country
in 1851. In 1853 the flame was again
famed into greater proportions by
the rescue of Koszta, one of the Hun
garian rebels, who had come to this
country and became a naturalized
citizen. He was in Turkey on bust
ness, when he was seized by order Of
the Austrian consul at Smyrna and
placed on board an Austrian war YES
sci, from whence he was rescued by
an American war vessel under threat
of force. The Macmillan incident
incident at the close of the civil war is
| laid tothis country, rata than IONA
poleon, who was responsible for get
ting him into trouble in Mexico.
Other little incidents have tended to
keep the feeling of that country
against the United States stirred up,
and the fact that the queen regent of
Spain is niece of the emperor Of Aus
tria does not in any way tend to allay
the bitterness. During the last day
or two it has been reported that two
of the best war vessels Austria has,
will be sent to Cuba, for what purpose
is not known, but it is limited that
the killing of several Austrians in one
of the riots in Pennsylvania last year
will be made the excuse for their ap-
pearance. If Austria is hunting
trouble with this country she will
doubtless be easily accommodated, and
will find she will have to keep
hands off or she will be likely to lose
two good war ships.

MEMORIAL DAY.

Memorial Day this year has had a
new meaning to thousands of Ameri-
cans Of the younger generation, to
whom the civil war is but matter
taken from history. They have been
brought to full realization of what
the day really means, Of what men,
cries, both tender and terrible, it
brings up to the older generation.
More generally than ever before have
the mass of the people observed
Memorial Day and poured out their
membranes upon the graves of the
fallen heroes. There has never been
Memorial Day that has not shown
that the people were strongly patri-
otto, but this year under the existing
circumstances the flames Of patriot
ism burn more intensely than for
years. The tramp of armies is again
heard in the land.and the roar of bat
tie again clashes upon the ear of peace.
All this brings wildly to the minds
Of the old veterans and thousands of
others the scenes of more than a
third of century ago, and the men,
DRY of the thousands who fell in the
great struggle that followed. Today
the ranks Of those, who in those DAYS
went forward to meet the shock of
battle, as bravely and hopefully as
those who were called month ago.
are growing thinner with each pass
ing day. There is no more pathetic
sight than that witnessed TODAY as
these aged veterans with gray locks,
and many with trembling, faltering
steps passed along the line of march
to take part in touching service
that took on new significance with
thousands.
1t has been looked upon by many as
simply a day for the old veterans,
though it has been gradually growing
among the masses. But today it has
impressed itself thoroughly upon the
hearts Of all and become more
thoroughly than ever the memorial
day of the nation.
Ard in another way it assumes a
new significance, in that it is the first
Memorial Day to dawn upon a
thoroughly united nation, aud in
another year the entire nation will
unite in placing flowers upon the
graves OF those who fall in this war-a
war not for spoils. but to free an
oppressed people. God grant that
the number of those graves may be
few, and war with all it's terrible
scenes and carnage may soon give way
