BRYAN.s FIGHT IN NEBRASKA.
Senator Hayward Says That General
tiles Are Put Forward.

tiles Are 1'ut FOrSarus
Senator Hayward of Nebraska, the repub-
.ican who succeeds Mr.. Allen. the populist,
is in Washington, and in conversation with
a Star reporter today talked of the politl-
cal campaign in Nebraska.
There is no denying the fact" said
Senator Hayward, that Mr.. Bryan Is CIV
ing the republicans hard fight. He Is go
ing into the small towns and rural settle
ments, places he never visited in his previ-
Gus campaigns, and is making a great ef-
fort to carry the state for the democrats.
The republicans are trying TO beat him.
We want to beat Bryan in his own state,
If we can, for the effect it will have on
the rest of the country. Mr.. Cleveland is
said to have written Mr.. J. Sterling Morton
that ii the democrats are beaten in Ne
braska this fall 1t will mean the defeat OF
Bryan for the presidential nomination.
While do not think that is quite probab BILE,
1 do believe 1t would be a blow at MIR.
Bryan personally If the republicans carry
the state and think We will do 1t.
Mr.. Bryan seems to be talking general
tiles a great deal. He Is not saying as
much about silver as he said in his last
campaign. His speeches on expansion are
not hurting us He does not advocate otis
pulling up stakes and retreating before the
Filipinos, and l am sure that the people
of Nebraska do not advocate such a course.
Mr. Bryan's talk on the trusts is weak,
think. He wants the states to levy tax
on corporations firms dealing in articles
made by trusts. Well, If the goods are
made in other states, that would simply
be a tariff between the states which is un-
lawful 1 think his plan Is a very poor
one.
Silver, as / said is not cutting much of
figure in our state. I think I am safe in
saying that Nebraska may now be regard
ed as an anti-free coinage state We never
were rampant for 1G to l. and since fine
ha1 ba lie
content of the people silver has gone into
the background.

KEEN INTEREST IN GOLF.
Players Mt Philadelphia Followed by
Big Gallery Today.

Big Gallery Today.
PHILADELPHIA, October 13-The cli-
max in the golf tournament for the wo-
mems championship Of the United States
Is fast approaching, and all Ii expectancy
among the many golfers gathered from
all parts Of the United States, at the beau
tiful grounds Of the Philadelphia Country
Club at Bala, Pa. The semi final round
for the championship was played today
and probably the largest crowd of the week
was on and around the course early in
order to see the four fair golfers contest
for supremacy.
The tournament has now narrowed down
to four players-Miss Ruth Oliver of AL
bany. N. Y; Mrs. Caleb F. Fox Of Rydal
near this city; Miss Ruth Underhill Of Glen
Cove, L. l., and Miss Cassatt of this city.
Miss Oliver played against Mrs. Fox. and
Miss Underhill was Miss Cassatt's oppo-
nent.
AS to which of the two matches the spec
tators were most interested in was plainly
shown by the large gallery" that followed
Miss Oliver and Mrs. Fox around the links
The other two players also had a. good fol-
lowing, but the sensational playing Of Mrs
Fox was the cause of her having the ma
1ority OF the spectators. The weather again
favored the players, and the course was in
fine condition.
The two matches were started soon after
10 o'clock and were followed on: :the links
by the four players who are contesting for
the prize offered by the Womens Golf As
sociation of Philadelphia. They were Mrs.
W F. Morgan Of Short Hills. N. J.. and
Miss Eunice Terry Of Irvlngton, N. Y,
and Miss Lucy Heron Of Cincinnati. and
Miss Katherine Rowland Of Greenwich.
Conn.
Mrs. Fox and Miss Oliver started OF well,
the former taking the first hole and the
latter the second. The third was easy for
Miss Oliver and the fourth went to Mrs.
Fox, who teed off badly for this hole. Miss
Oliver lost the fifth hole by bad putting,
the hole being halved.

COL. SCHNEIDER WOUNDED,
Supposed to Have Fought II Duel With
Capt. CuiEnet.

LONDON, October 13.-A dispatch from
Paris says that a representative of In
transigeant, NJ. Rochefort's paper asserts
that, while seeing friend off on the Orient
express last evening, he observed Colonel
schneider, former military attache of the
Austro-Hungarian embassy IN Paris, being
carried to the train, accompanied by ply
sicians and with blood flowing from a
wound in his side.
Colonel Schneider said:
Il recently returned from Switzerland to
fight a duel with Captain Cuignet on ac-
count of his evidence regarding me before
the Rennes court-martial."
Captain Cuignet, in the course of his
evidence at Rennes, on the second trial OF
Dreyfus. referred to q dispatch of Colo
mel Schneider denouncing a forgery
letter purporting to have been written by
him, In which he was represented as alud-
ing to efforts made by the German and
relations with Dreyfus. This allegation of
forgery Captain Cuignet ridiculed, declar-
ing that if Colonel Schneider persisted in
his attitude the French general staff was
In a position to prove beyond dispute the
authenticity of the letter which Schneider
had repudiated. He then added:
The author of the letter is, l know, of
very inferior position compared with
his friends (Schwarzkoppen and PanizZardD.
Perhaps he cannot do otherwise than deny.
But he must know that his letter is not the
only one of his communications now in our
hands"

FAMOUS IN SPORTS.

There is always good fishing at the duke of Richmond's place, Gordon cas- tie. and Lady Caroline Gordon LenoX, who acts as hostess for her brother, is quite an expert with the rod
 Lord Caruaryon is a good shot, and recently he gave party for the prince of Wales, at which lG,s00 birds were slaughtered in three days with only six huuters-600 birds a day "a each gun.
 The Bradley Martins have one of the finest shooting estates in Scotland and their shooting parties are always eager ly attended. Their daughter, Lady Craven. and her husband stay with them during tbe season.
 There is no one who can compete with Lord de Grey of England as a sports man. Once iu Ireland. when shooting, he brought down l6 wild geese with a two-barreled gun, and in one year was responsible for the death of l5,O00 birds.
 There has been some record deer shooting in Scotland. Athon forest is supposed Co contain about 15,OOO head of red deer, and when the prince and princess of Wales visited there in 1872 no fewer than 5000 deer were driven before them.

The fury in the Walker murder trlal came into court this afternoon at 2 o'clock after being out for sixty. nine hours, and announced that they had agreed upon a verdict. Fore man Burkes then read it, which found the defendant guilty of mur. der in the first degree with the penalty fixed al life imprisonment The defendant did not betray any emotion whatever at the verdict either of surprise, satisfaction or disappointment, bat accepted it as a matter of course.
 After the jury was discharged i: was learned that from the very first almost. they had stood eight for murder in the first degree with the death penalty attached and the verdict as rendered was a compco- mise, each side concediDg a point.
 Judge Sloan, who Is entered for tomorrow golf game, had gone out to the grounds for an afternoon practice and had made his way about half around the grounds when the court balif was sent for him and he returned to receive the yer dict.
 While there are duIte a number of people who think the extreme penalty should have been inflicted on the defendant, the verdict seems to give general satisfaction.
 Next Monday, December Is, was fixed by the judge as the date for passing formal sentence on the prisoner in accordance with the verdict.

Washington Memorial Services

The memorial services conducted by tbe Red Men last night in the Masonic temple, in eommemoration of the Tooth anniversary of the death of George Washington, were well attended, and the services were very impressive and instructive. The ser vices that had been prepared by the great council of the United States for sil the tribes of the order, were earned out with few additions ar ranged by the local committee. The members of the order were ably as sisted by Mrs. Nj. A. Lawler, Miss Loretta Ford and Miss Ella Hunter. who furnished some very excellent music, and Miss Ora Roberts in 6 recitation Of "Our Couutry's Flag" The different officers of the tribe made fitting speeches upon the life works and character of Washington One of the prettiest parts of the ser vices was the unTeiling of a large picture of Washington ard drsping it with the American flag and a wreath of evergreen and flowers.
 Among the Red Men who took part in the solemn ceremonies were Prophet B. P. Ohlsen, Sachem J. E. Gates, Senior Ssgamore ?. NJ. Clark. JunIor Sagamore John C.. Forest, and Master of Ceremonies T. L. Harris.
 Hon. T. c. Norris read in a mast erly manner an address delivered by Grand Representative Rice st Wash ington's tomb last September. This was cue of the most concise, pointed, aud eloquent eulogies of Washing ton probably ever written, and shows ID few words why he wss first in war, first in pt ace and first in the hearts of his countTymen.
 Past Sachem F. W. O'Suilivan, delivered sn oration which was pro nounced a masteriy effort by all present ard showed that in his heart the fires of patriotism and love for our country and her founders, burns brightly.
 Taken altogether the Red Men are to be congratulated for the timely and devoted manner in which they seek to promuigate the principles Of liberty and keep green in memory the names and noble deeds of our forefathers who gave US the heritage We now enjoy.

FOOD IN FICTION.

In Scott's stories there is a hint of picturesque splendor about the dinners he describes There are noble" meals and much geniality and good fellow ship.
 Woman novelists. particularly Ouida, rarely allow their heroes and heroines to partake of a substantial meal, while in the pages of the men writers feasts abound.
 Disraeh does not descend to specify meals, but has a way of introducing gorgeous banquets of unlimited courses. Everything in "LoJhair" hap pens at dinner parties, and fiat little birds in aspic jelly" and ortOlans usual ly form part of the menu.
 Compare Dickens and Thsckeray. Each Is fond of feeding his characters. but Thackeray tells of the feasts with an epicurean touch, an appreciation of the dehcacies of the table. while Dick ems written meals are always hearty, plain, boiled beef and greens and meat pies ruling.

Literary Note.

The war in South Africa between
 the British and the Boers is awaken
 ing an interest in the dark conti-
 nent, the land toward which the
 worlds immigration of coming years will be directed. Most op- portunely comes the announcement that William Harding, New York cable editor of the Associated Press, has a book on Africa nearly ready, entitled "War in South Africa: The Dark Continent from Savagery to Civilization" to be published this month by The Dominion Con- pany of Chicago. Mir. Harding should be eminently qualified to prepare a comprehensive and valu- able work on this subject. Not only has he travelled extensively in the dark continent, but for years all cable information from Africa and the old world has passed through his hands before being given to the public. The forthcoming will contain a full account of Africa from the earliest ages to the present day, including a de- tailed account of the causes and events of the British-Boer war.

 It is an established fact that the great wealth of Colorado Is found in its low grade ores and profit from them is made possible hy cheap transportation. We have many ad- vantages not enjoyed by Colorado in the matter of splendid climate, and as 10 our mineral resources they are second to none.
 It Is to be hoped that this meri- torious proposition to build these ore roads will be successful. for they wlll not only pay their promoters enormously but will be the means of materially increasing our gold, sil- yer and copper product. Let any one consider the great benefit the road from Jerome Junction to the United Verde mines and then they will realize what is meant for Yava- pal mines if the Gold Exploiting company carries out its plans.
