Bryan speech-BuIIding.

LINCOLN, Neb., July ia heavy
rain kept William Jennings Bryan in
doors most of the day and he i'm
proved the opportunity by devoting
much time to his speech of acceptance
and campaign preparations. He
would neither confirm nor deny dis
patch from New York which said he
will make several addresses there and
in Eastern States. All announcements
of his itinerary would come, he said,
from the Democratic national commit
tee at Chicago.

No Encampment This Year.

There will be no encampment of the
State guard this year. Such was the
Gen. B. S. Royster, adjutant general
of the State Guard. The chief reason
for the failure to have an encampment
this year is the want of funds. The
department is hard pressed for means
and there are not sufficient funds
available to guarantee an encamp-
ment. Tt is very likely that the first
regiment will take a practice march in
the fall and other regiments may do
likewise.

WANTED REGISTRARS BOOK.
A .sSmart'' Deputy Sheriff Carries a
Message to Mr.. Nance.

Tt is charged that ] B. Stanley, one
of Sheriff Kapp's deputies, visited
Registrar Nance, in Kernersville, a
few days ago and notified him that d
committee had been appointed by the
Republicans to wait upon the reg gistrar
and demand the registration book for
inspection by said committees. OF
course Mr.. Nance notified the "bright"
deputy that the committee could not
get the book; that they had nothing to
do with it.
Tt is said that the Kernersville Re
publicans sent a representative here
yesterday to consult vito some of the
bosses TO see il there was any waE for
them to get hold Of Registrar Nanre,,s
book.
The Republicans evidently consider
themselves great schemers, but their
plans will not work on Democratic
registrars, who will not be frightened
or bull-doZed.

WASHINGTON, July 19.-The gov

the present Chinese agitation is hav-
ing the usual effect of stimulating
cranks and agitators and many of the
highest officers are receiving anony-
nous letters containing advice and
sometimes threats. The Chinese Of
ficials are also victims of foolish ef-

riously, however, and the officials,
both government and Chinese, dismiss
them as silly emanations from ignor-
ant persons. On their face, some OF
these communications look belliger-
ent, but their illiteracy and braggado-
cia modify their effect. The govern
ment officials express regret that in
the delicate position in which the
country is placed at this time it should
be embarrassed by anonymous writer's

apprehend the guilty persons.

LESSONS TO BE LEARNED.
Rev. Bailey's Theme Was From the
Scene of Carnage.

Rev. George Bailey, who returned
from the scene Of the disaster at SEQ
fed on Saturday evening, preached at
the Westminster Presbyterian church
yesterday morning on the lessons of the
disaster, taking for his text: There is
but a step between me and death.
The absorbing attention, said Mr..
Bailey, with which the majority of men
devote themselves to their business pur-
suits during six days of the week ser
iOusly ind.sposes them for listening on
the Sabbath to the word of life with
the fixedness of attention which its
infinite Importance demands. Hence
the greatest difficulty which one feels
in rising to address a congregation is
to arrest and rivet the attention of his
hearers to spiritual and everlasting
themes.
But" he continued, there are times
when the very phraseology of text,
taken in connection with the circum-
stances that may have suggested it,
arrests with an irresistible fascination
the attention Of the hearers. My text
was suggested by the awful explosion
at ScOfield on Tuesday last, and which
superseded for a while all other sensa-
! lions, and is surely enough to arouse
the most stupid mind and impress the
most careless heart.
The first lesson that the recent dis
aster should teach US, said Mr. Bailey,
Isl that Of the fearful uncertainty of
human life From the great mystery
of the future world we are separated by
the narrow stream of death, across
which thousands are passing every day.
! Every funeral bell, every open grave,
every. symptom of disease within us is
a separate warning, saying: Boast not
myself of tomorrow, for thou knOwest
not what day may bring forth This
] event should remind us Of the final dis
solution that awaits US.
! If one might illustrate the great by
/ the small. the majestic by the insig-
nifcant, the burning Of the world by
1 the explosion of the mine at ScOfield
we would observe. The recent explosion
was strikingly sudden. On the morn
ling of ito occurrence the sun shOne
/ brightly over the mountain village, and
/ the blue vault above was undarkened
! by single cloud. Hundreds of miners
were working peacefully at their tasks
little dreaming that in a moment the
| scene Of their toll would be a mass OF
! blackened ruins, and they themselves
/ be hurled out Of time into eternity
above ALL" said Mr.. Barley, the re-
| cent explosion should teach us that we
/ cannot violate the laws of God with
/ impunity a wrong deed whether com,
United Willfully or inadvertently, is fol.
/ lowed sooner or later by its bad effects
and no law. whether moral or physical
which God has laid down can be broker
with imDunity."
The collection taken for the relic
! fund amounted to $50.

CONFERENCE IN CHICAGO
THE VICE PRESIDENTIAL STU
ALTON IS DISCUSSED.
Representatives From the Democratic
Populist and Lincoln Republican
Parties Present-Bryan Says He is
Not Interesting Himself in the
Matter of a Running Mate.

Chicago, May 6.-The Chronicle tomor-
row will say: Bryan and Towne," that
was the way the probable Democratic.
Populistic and Lincoln Republican ma
tional ticket was framed up as the result
of a conference yesterday afternoon be-
tween leaders of the three parties at the
Sherman house. The presidential nomin-
alton was not discussed as being a fore
gone conclusion, but when the conferees
had delved into the puzzle of the vice
presidential situation, Charles A TOwne
of Duluth stood on a pinnacle of import
ance that dwarfed other possibilities
The Populist representatives at the con-
ference were Senator Marion Butler of
South Carolina. chairman of his party s
national committee; General James 3
SHIRLEY of Virginia. The Republicans were
represented by Senator PettigreW of South
Dakota and ex-senator Fred 7. Dubois
of Idaho. The Democratic representa-
tives at the conference were Vice Chair
man James G. johnson of the national
committee; Daniel J. Campau Of Detroit
national committeeman from Michigan,
/ Colonel Bryan was not present nor was
Mr.. TOwne.
Il am not interested myself in the vice
presidential nomination said Mr.. Bryan.
I have seen the men of the three parties
present in the city today, but | am not
saying anything regarding conferences. I
am going home for two months rest on
my farm
fhe Populist plan does not contemplate
the nOminati ton of Mr.. TOWne at the ma
tional convention this week at Sioux calls.
The programme of the leaders, SO far as
leaders of the POpulists can lay out the
work for a convention, contemplate the
nomination of Bryan without nominating
anyone for second place.
The convention, it was stated, would be
asked to name a committee 10 attend the
+ Democratic and Silver Republican conven-
( ton in Kansas City. This body will be
/ empowered to ratify the nomination of
/ the two parties which are expected TO
/ put UP a satisfactory running mate for
/ Mr.. Bryan, ii will be authorized 10 name
a Populist candidate.
/ The object in giving such extensive
/ powers to a committee it was minated
was that the party might hold club over
/ the Democratic party to insure the re-
affirmation of the Chicago platform. As
] surances were declared to have been given
/ that this would be done, in which case /;
was said nothing stood in the way of a
satisfactory fusion of all three parties

TIME FOR CHARITY.
Sermon by Rev. Henry on the Upper
most Topic.

At the First Methodist church yes
terday morning Rev. A. H Henry
preached on the subject of the late
disaster at Scofeld His sermon in
substance was as follows:
In saying what I have planned to
say concerning the terrible tragedy at
ScOfield, 1 shall make no effort except
to put before you clearly certain of the
facts preliminary to making an appeal
for your help. Together with Rev E.
T. Fowler, state missionary of the
American Sunday School union, / went
to ScOfield to do what was possible to
relieve the distress and bring comfort
to the bereaved We found the con-
dition of affairs appalling in the ex-
treme-destitution horror and misery
unspeakabie everywhere-from one to
four or five collins at almost every
doorstep, grief and apprehension in
every face. Some of the scenes were
simply heartrending.
"One strong man who pilOted us
about at first said, I can stand it to
go among the dead here in the chapel
and at the school house where they
literally cover the floor, but 7 have
learned to run when 1 see a woman
with her baby
1T was in the homes where we began
to feel the real extent of the disaster.
HOllow-eyed, pale-faced women gath
ering their orphaned children about
them and staring blankly into the flu
ture with no knowledge of where their
support must come from and with but
the vaguest trust in God.
Let it be said to the credit of the
p. V. Coal company and its agents on
the ground, that relief was most gen
eTOusly offered without stint and on the
first intimatiOn Of need The men at
the company's store were largely on the
alert to afford every assistance and
help possible. They have proved that
corporations have souls and will with
out question do all that justice and
mercy demand"
The speaker. referred to the benevo-
lent action of the women who came
with the floral committee and who went
about from house to house speaking
words of comfort and leaving a IS gold
piece in each place visited. AS he des-
cribed the scenes of pathos that he
had witnessed not a dry eye was in the
house
The pastor requested that the money
to be contributed by the First NJ. z.
church be used to send a representative
of the gospel of Christ among that peO-
pie to hold religious services, visit the
people and lay the foundation for a
permanent work along evangelistic
lines, although those who desired to
give for the relief Of physical needs
were welcomed to do so. When the col
lection was taken it was found that
the generous sum of $136.69 had been
contributed

! to first base in the first, and he came
in on a hit by Meinicke Dyer and
/ Gimlin scored for the Ogdens, both of
the runs being earned.
The Rios went I'D in the second and
brought in two runs on a good single
Of Risley's, and then went out and
made the Ogdenites look like a newly
calcimined fence.
The Westerns came UP in the third
and quit with two men on bases. The
Ogdenites followed with four nice large
runs on errors of Mcfarland and Mar
tin. IN the next inning the Rios scored
two and their tally remained thus until
the ninth. the Ogdens coming up TO
y. The play was without incident.
In the ninth the Rios Went to the
bat with the score u to and every
indication that il would end that way.
This outlook was made stronger by
Meinicke and Shannon dying respec-
lively under the kind care of Greenwell
and Plake Then Burns went to the
stick and put one down by Dyer. which
the latter failed to handle Mcfarland
put one out in the deep garden, which
Bluth found too hot, and there were
two on bases. Donovan walked and
filled the bags.
Then up came Scare. and the Ogden
ties held their breath They knew the
record Of the boy. Scare did not dis
appoint his friends, but let drive a
nice single and in came Burns and
Mcfarland. Risley was next up and
he followed Seare's lead most beauti-
fully and placed another warm one,
bringing in Donovan and Scare Hop
kins went up and gave Gimlin an easy
one, and the Ogdenites breathed easy.
The summary follows:
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1900-05-07

Yesterdays church services were de-
voted in great part to prayers for the
Scofeld sufferers, sermons on the les
sons to be learned from the disaster
and the collections of money to aid in
the relief of the widows, orphans and
dependent ones Tt was a, day for the
exercise of true Christian charity and
the responses were liberal indeed.
However, at very many of the
churches the taking of offerings was
deferred until next Sunday. on account
Of the short notice beforehand of the
collections to be made and because also
of the fact that many were prevented
by the morning rain from attending
church services. That next Sunday S
offerings swill be larger admits Of no
doubt.
