COMPLIMENT TIC BRYAN.

A friend sends US the following
dirty dispatch from Omaha to the
Pioneer Press and wants to know
what we think of it. The dispatch
reads as follows:
The Third Nebraska, commanded
by Col. William Jennings Bryan. late
candidate Tor President of the United
States on a mongrel ticket, broke
camp today and left for the scene Of
conflict, with heas, at Jacksonville.
The ultimate destination of the regi-
ment is supposed to be at Porto Rico.
1t 1t arrives before the surrender the
Colonel" will subdue the natives
with II of his free silver speeches or
press upon their brow a crown of
Nebraska thorns.
We think that, while of course the
writer Of the dispatch simply adver-
tlsed himself as a coarse BLACKBOARD.
the dispatch itself, like a hundred
other similar squibs in the Eastern
press, is a great compliment to MIR.
Bryan, for it shows that the writers
still remember that in 1896, his vote
outside Of New York and P~ennsvl-
vania, where wholesale bribery and
bulldozing prevailed, WIS practically
to tie with that given Maj. Mckinley,
and they fear 1900. They fear it so
much hat they refuse even common
justice to Col. Bryan. Many officers
are being eXtravagantly praised every
day, for what they are doing and What
they viii do if they get a chance; in
all the gathering thousands who have
enlisted to serve their country, not one
has been subjected to personal abuse
except Col. w. ]. Bryan. This we
think is a high compliment to him, for
1t shows how in their cowardlv hearts
they fear him. That the people
thrOn2ed about the train in which be
went to the front is NORWOOD and
gall to them; that at their incessant
demands he made a few remarks to the
people, here and there on the way.
though he spoke no partisan word,
still they rave like fshwonlen, that he
spoke at all. In their rawlings they
reveal their fear of him and hence
their coarse abuse is really a tribute
OF praise Salt Lake Tribune.

GROUND HOGS DAY.
Weather Predictions ON the Old Time
Superstition.

Yesterday was Candlemas day. an an
cient feast Of the church in celebration
of the publication of the virgin. 1t is
more commonly known in this country,
however, as grounding day, because of
the widespread belief that if the ground
hog shows himself on the second day of
February for any length of time there
will be late and cold spring.
The superstition is that the ground hog
wakes from his winter nap on Candlemas
day and comes out to take look at the
weather. If he finds it bright and clear
he plays about for awhile because it is
a sure sign that it will be long time yet
before there will be any more pleasant
weather. on the contrary il the DAY is
dark and dreary the ground hog returns
to his hole content with the assurance
that the winter is almost over.
So universal was this belief at one time
that the sight Of a ground hog on Can
dlemas day was enough to provoke the
wrath of any one who saw him, and it
was an unlucky ground hog that met with
a sportsman that day. The belief in such
indications of the weather on Candlemas
day is not confined to this country, being
in fact an old superstition imported from
the other side of the water. There is an
old Scotch rhyme on this subject which
goes as follows:
If Candlemas day be dry and fair,
The half o. winters to come and MAR;
If Candlemas day be wei and FOUL
The half of winters gone a Yule.
The Germans have proverb that the
shepherd would rather see the wolf enter
his stable on Cand!emas day than the sun,
and another that the badger peeps out of
his hole on Candlemas day, and when he
finds snow, walks abroad, but if he sees
the sun shining, draws back into his hole.
The ground hog prophets must have been
puzzled lot If they undertook to decide
the weather for the balance of the winter
by yesterdays weather. The day was cold
and cloudy, and windy, but it was not wet
and gloomy such as the ground hog is
said to love, and then there was little
stretch of sunshine in the early morning
when it is to be hoped all the ground hogs
were asleep. Judged from the standpoint
of the ground hog weather bureau the in
dications were not so very favorable for an
early spring.

RESERVES SPRING MANEUvERs.
Visit of the Cruisers Anticipated
With Much Interest.

Commander L. NJ Ackely, United
States navy. inspector of the Sixth light
house district, has been detailed by the
navy department to perform the duty of
inspector and instructor of the naval mil
itia at Savannah and Brunswick. Com
mander Ackely has notified the adjutant
general of his appointment and has re-
quested him to direct the commanding Of
ficers of the naval militia to furnish him
list OF the government property in their
possession, and to confer with him, either
in person or by letter, as to the times when
and where the duties assigned him can be
carried out.
las this duty is In addition to my du-
ties as lighthouse inspector" says Com
mander Ackely in his letter TO Adjutant
General Keil and as the navy depart
ment has not authorized me to make any
special visits to these ports, but confine
myself to such times as it is necessary for
the light house tender to visit them, it
would seem to be imperatively necessary
to direct the commanding officers of the
battahons to communicate with me in per-
son whenever 1 notify them of my ar
rival"
The government seems to be paying con-
siderable attention to the naval militia
Perhaps it expects some service of them
soon.
The report in the Atlanta Constitution
that the detailing of two cruisers for the
instruction of the naval militia on the
Southern coast during the spring and sum-
mer das due to the differences between
the Savannah and Brunswick organiza-
tons is scoffed at by the naval militia here
They point to the fact that Assistant Sec
rotary Roosevelt, in his letter to the ad-
jutant general a synopsis of which was
published in the Morning News, distinct
ly states that the cruisers are to be de-
tailed for work on the Southern coast, to
begin in the South In the spring and cruise
North. 1t is evident that the two cruis-
ers will perform the same service for the
naval militia of other states as we'll as of
Georgia, and that two cruisers are assign
ed instead of one in order TO facilitate the
work. Even then, the assistant secretary
states the cruisers will have to begin their
work in the spring and cruise north
Commander H. S. Colding of the Second
division, said that the report is not worth
discussing and he declined to make any
further comment upon ii. Lieut. Coldine
said that IL the cruiser sent to Savannah
will allow drills aboard at night there win
be no difficulty in getting a full attend
ance of the militia for instruction during
the week the vessel is to be in port Ii
drills cannot be held at night a fair at
tendance can be secured for afternoon
drills, he said
'Sapelo is an ideal place for naval mill

have no doubt it will be selected for that
purpose. May is good month for our men
to get off and ! do not think the Savan.

LIABLE ONLY FOR ONE-FOURTH.
The City's Share of the City Courts
Expenses.

ADe NltS's snare OF the City Courts
Expenses.
City Attorney Adams submitted his opin-
ion yesterday to Mayor Meldrim on the
question of the bills of the Sheriff and
Clerk of Che City Court for insolveut costs.
As stated in the Morning News, bills for
the fun amounts heretofore allowed the
Sheriff and Clerk of the City Court on nc-
count of insolvent costs were presented by
these officials. Notwithstanding the fact
that the entire expense of maintaining the
City Court will be assumed by the county
after April l.
Mr.. Adams decision was that the off,
Gals were entitled to only one fourth of
the amounts heretofore allowed, being the
cty's pro rata for the quarter during
which it will continue TO share the ex-
penses of maintaining the City Court.
Having decided that the officials were
entitled to only one-fourth, it was ur-
necessary for MIR. Adams to pass upon TIE
question whether the Clerk and Sheriff
were entitled to include insolvent costs
accumulated previous TO this year in max
ing up their bills.
Mayor Meldrim said that the opinion of
the city attorney will doubtless decide the
matter so far as Council is concerned. 1T
is simply a matter of our legal liability"
the Mayor said. IF the opinion OF the
CITY attorney had been that the city was
liable for the full amount, then these
amounts would have been paid promptly.
our liability being only oue-fourth. we
shall, OF course, pay that much only"
