PERFECT HARMONY.
A Meeting of the Chief Delegates to the
Peace Congress.

A Meeting of the Chief Delegates to the
Peace Congress.
The Hague, May 19.-The meeting at
which Andrew D. White, head of the
United States delegation, and Sir Julian
Pauncefote. head of the British delega-
ton, were present resulted in an agree
ment to appoint three committees to
deal with the respective groups of ques-
tions prepared for discussion, namely:
Disarmament. laws of warfare, media
ton and arbitration.
With view of facilitating the ap-
pointment of the committees, it was
agreed that each chief delegate should
nominate one of his own delegat ion
whom it might be desired to appoint to
the respective committees so that each
nation should be represented upon all.
Probably the committees will meet next
Tuesday or Wednesday to organize and
to arrange their procedure.
The opinion of a majority of the dele
gates seems to be that the general
scheme to be presented to the confer
ence tomorrow had been conceived in
broad and liberal spirit, and the re-
port of this mornings meeting of the
delegation chiefs is regarded as demon
strating the good will and conciliatori-
ness of all the delegates as well as a
common desire to facilitate the Iabors
of the conference. Perfect harmony has
prevailed thus far regarding all ques-
tons brought forward.
At the session tomorrow NJ. de Staale
Will read the replies of Emperor Mich
olas and Queen Wilhelmina to the dis
patches sent to their majesties at the
opening of the conference, after which
he will deliver an important speech
upon the work of the conference and
will propose the adoption of the general
scheme arranged this morning.
The various delegations met this af-
ternoon to assign their members to the
grand divisional committees. To-mor-
rows session and all subsequent ses-
sions will be secret.

characterizes the contralto-that alone
is an enviable possession. But when, in

an air like Brahms "Meine Iiebe Ist

to the audience like a sublime prayer,

MEANING IN NEBRASKA.

There is a deeper significance attached
to the result of Tuesdays election in
Nebraska than appears on the surface, or
would be taken into account by those
unacquainted with the history Of the
state. Since the time Nebraska was ad-
mitted into the Union 1t has always had
Republican supreme court. 1t consists
of two judges, a chief justice and two
court commissioners. The commissioners,
however, have no vote in decisions, and
until the election Of fusionist judge two
years ago the personnel has always been,
politically, Republican. The election of
ex-Gov. Silas A. Holcomb gives the ma
jority of the supreme court into Dem
ocratic hands. To defeat this end the
Republicans put up the fight Of their
lives on Tuesday, led by Senator John
