Bryan's First Weeks Work.

Lincoln, Neb., Aug. 26.-Mr.
Bryan returned to Lincoln from
Omaha this morning in time to
attend church. His return to-
day may be said to mark the
completion of his first week of
active work in the present cam
paign. Beginning with his speech
at Wahoo Tuesday, he made
during the week eleven address
es, besides a number of brief
talks from the rear platform of
trains on which he travelled, one
of these speeches being the re-
ply to the Populist notification.
The week was a fair test of Mr..
Bryan's physical endurance as
we'll as of his mental versatility.
He did not seem, however, to
regard the weeks experience as
in any sense exceptional, but,
on the contrary, spoke of it
lightly.
Mr.. Bryan will leave here
Wednesday for Chicago, where
he will witness the sham battle
of the Grand Army on Thurs
day. He will remain in Chicago
for several days.

Deaths.

The angel of death visited our
home Aug. 81, 1900, and bore
away our darling baby, Ethel
Hawtance, daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. S. N. Bowers. Little Haw-
tance was 2 months and 3
weeks old on the day of her
death. How sad it was to stand
around her cradle as the angels
lowered near to bear her spirit
home. But, we bow in humble
submission, to him that doeth
all things we'll. The remains
were inferred in Forkhill cem-
etery.
IT'S hard TO break the tender chord
When love has bound the heart;
'Tis hard, so hard, to speak the word
We must forever part
MOTHER AND SISTER.
The following lines we trans
cribe as a tribute to the memory
of Mrs. J. T. Hunter:
Farewell sister. farewell,
Peaceful be thy silent rest
slumber sweetly God knew best
When 10 call thee home 10 rest.
[ Farewell sister. farewell sister:
We must say our last farewell
TIL we meet, beyond the river.
Happy there with thee to dwell.

addresses of able men on live issues,
we shall cite one paragraph taken
at random from the speech to Us
reads rather like 4 passage from
.one of the old Hebrew prophets:
s. Can we not govern coionies7'
we are asked. The question is NOT
what we can do, but what we ought
10 do. This nation can do what
ever it desires to do, but it must ac-
cept responsibility for what it does.
If the constitution stands in the
way. the people Can amend the
Constitution. / repeat, the nation
can do whatever it desires to do,
hut il cannot avoid the natural and
legitimate results Of its own conduct
The young inan upon reaching his
majority can do what he pieases.
He can disregard the teachings OF
his parents; he can ,rsmEle upon
nj that he has been taught to con
slider sacred;s he can disobey the
1aws of the State. the laws Of So
ci>ty and the laws of God. He can
stamp failure upon his life. and
snake his very existence = curse to
I his felIow-men, and he can bring

Second Way-Boil the beans after

the onion is well done. Serve hot with
