Denth Rate I'm RnttIe-

or the fifteen decisive battles Of the
world, the average death rate in the
last five of them (of which alone reli-
able statistics are preserved, was about
p per cent ranging from 20 per cent,
the British loss at Saratoga, to AZ per
cent, the loss of the Swedes at Pultowa.
OF other great battles it is difficult to
fix the average death rate. though Il
may be estimated at about 20 per cent.
The rates range from 90 (the German
loss at Sedan in September, 1870. to 80
per cent the British loss at bloody Al
buera. As n matter of fact, things
stand very much as they used to do.
save that the slaughter, when 1t does
occur, always comes more quickly. A
great battle in which the quick firing
guns can be brought into effective use
will probably increase the death rate
largely. but that remains TO be proved.

Trojan war, 5000 years ago, not sin

A new adolnment is finding favor
among milliners. This consists of
skeleton leaves preserved exactly as
they fall from the tee and retaining
their natural color. The leaves of the
walnut, chestnut and platane trees are
preferred for the purpose; large ivy
leaves and oak leaves are also used.
The longest leaves are formed into a
large palette, one side being composed
Of stiff painted feather, the other OF
the skeleton leaf, thus forming a broad
garniture. A fine invisible wire fixed
to the edge of the leaf prevents its
crumpling. The smaller leaves are
made into garlands mounted on an anti
fetal or natural branch. The leaves
have to be perfectly preserved as their
beauty naturally lies in the delicacy
and transparency of the dber.-St.

NOT so DEAD.

Berlin cable.-In the lower house of
the Prussian diet today curious dis
cusslon arose during the ministry of
the interior. DR.. Barth ridiculed Herr
Arendt's former prophecies that Ar
thur j. Balfour would bring about
silver era. Herr Arendt replied that
the British ministry had broken its
word. Mr.. Balfour, he said had given
q succession Of definite promises in
Parliament, and then, when on the
strength Of these declarations France
and the United States had displayed
O. readiness to open negotiations both
powers had experienced sharp rebuffs.
"such breach Of faith" exclaimed
the speaker, Stands alone in history"
Herr Arendt answered; "Bimetal-
lism would break the power of capital.
The war In South Africa has shown to
what capital has led England. Press

From the above 1t would appear that

ECHOES FROM THE EAST.

Mr.. Bryan, q short time ago, made
a great speech in Baltimore. Rev.
Julius b. Grammar, distinguished
Episcopal clergyman of that city heard
the speech. He Is not believer in
Mr.. Bryans political sentiments, (at
least he does not care to take the pub
lie into his confidence on that point,
as there are undoubtedly some bank
ers among the members OF his flock),
but here Is what he says about the
great orator and his wonderful elo-
Quence.
"The public effort Of Mr.. Bryan on
Saturday night was remarkable
event In the history Of the discussion
of the Issues now before the people.
The audience was phenomenal. The
building served as grand type Of the
growth of this fair city Of ours. The
speaker was for personal appearance,
the handsomest man in tho house, and
magnificent manner Of endowment
of speech, Of voice and OF power to
move a multitude. Never have we
heard an orator who more fully met
all the anticipatons OF great audi
ence. His wit was sparkling, his a.
tire pointed and piercing, His dra-
matte power was seen in his appeal
to the love Of the individual citizen,
as above the price Of money. His qlN-
tations Of scriptures were admirable
and reverent, his allusion to PLATE
and the Savior very eloquent. What
impressed me particularly was his de-
sire not to prolong the applause, by
drawing the public attention to one
salient point after the other. His
speech was full of thought, and one
matter after another was handled with
consummate skill and elaborate de-
tail. He is a master of assemblies, He
Is a master Of the passions. He sur
passes all speakers Of the country for
will and emphasis, for ease and grace
of delivery, and for power to win the
admiration for eloquence and high
sentlmentality."

PoPuLIsr POSITION STATED.

The following resolutions were
adopted by the Popullsts of Keya Paha

Whereas, The reform forces Of thln
nation are approaching the greatest
political crisis In the history OF Ma
tional reform movements. And
Whereas, Differences of opinion OK

corporation Of the reform forces COM
monty called fusion, and
whereas, The coming convention
Of the Populist party to be held at
Lincoln, Nebraska, will elect dele.
gates to the next national convention
not yet called, and
Whereas, We believe the delegate
should know the mind OF the people
he represents, and
Whereas, We have not forgotten,
but still hold In shameful remem-
brance, the pretended union of 1896,
which was willing to accept the votes
of the Popullst party, but was un-
willing to accord that party q place on
the national ticket,
Therefore Be 1t Resolved, That the
delegates elected to represent Keya
Paha county In the state convention,
be instructed to use their best efforts
to secure the instruction of the dele
gates elected to the national conven-
tion to secure an honorable union OF
the reform forces, or straight Popu-
list ticket.
Resolved, That by an honorable
union we mean, First, that one OF
the standard-bearers OF the national
ticket must be tried and true Popu-
list; second, that the platform OF all
parties to the union shall be without
equivocation for government issue OF
money and an increase of the clrculat-
ing medium.
Resolved, That we admire the bold
and patriotic fight for the common
people of Hon. W. ]. Bryan and we
believe that II an acceptable union is
effected his candidacy for the head of
the ticket would be acceptable to the
Popullsts Of our country"
A strong direct legislation" resolu.
tion was also adopted.
