Bryan May Move to Texan.

Omaha, March ga special to the
Bee from Washington, d. c., says:
There is seemingly good reason for
believing that William j. Bryan is
quietly making arrangements to move
to Texas in the event of his defeat for
president.
The Texas delegation In Congress,
and more particularly Senator Cul-
berson and Representative Bailey, look
upon Bryan's movements with con-
siderable trepidatiOn and see in his
quiet trip to the Lone Star state much
to arouse suspicion. Bryan's children
are going to school in Austin. They are
In love with the state, so it Is said, as
is also Mrs. Bryan. Colonel Bryan
appeals to the emotionalism OF the
sOutherners to Il remarkable extent
and in point of fact his temperament
savors more of the South than of the
North.
A Texas congressman to-day said
that Mr.. Bryan was the idol of his
people and that should he meet defeat
at the polls, losing Nebraska as well
as the nation, he saw no other future
for the Nebraska statesman than for
him to move to the imperial common
wealth of Texas, and take up his resi-
dence with the people who honor him
for the fight he made for silver.
SHOULD Bryan decide to move to
Texas" said the congressman, "he
would at once take prominent place
in the councils of the Democratic
party, and so warm hearted are our
people over wrongs that it would not
surprise me to see him displace Cul-
berson, Chiffon and Bailey in the
leadership and become the Dictator of
Democratic politics In the Lone Star
state. Bryan must realize that with
Nebraska lost to him, he stands but
little show for future preferment and
he can with honor to himself and to
the state turn his eyes toward Texas
whose Democracy is unquestioned
and unquenchable."
The Holly chieftain., 1900-03-30
M,king Taxdong.rs PAY It.

To punish a man for nonpayment OF
a certain tax by forbidding him to en-
ter a restaurant is custom in the
canton of Berne. Every man in Swift
erland must serve in the Swiss army
II he be physically capable and If he
be not physically capable he must pay
what is called the military exemption
tax The government says If man
has money to spend for coffee. beer or
liquors he must also have money
enough with which to pay his debt to
the state. The law cannot prohibit a
person from obtaining liquor through
the intervention or help of a friend, but
the privilege of dropping into favorite
resorts and hobnobbing with friends
custom which is dear to every Swiss
must be foregone.
The Holly chieftain., 1900-03-30
TEACHING PERSISTENCE.
Even Mere Babes Can Be Encouraged In
tho Habit of Trying Again.


Few little children. of course. volun-
tarily set themselves to overcome diff
ficulties, yet more would do so IL par
ents and nurses were not in the habit
Of catering to that fiightiness charac-
teristic of all young things, which
leads them to follow up whatever mo-
mentarily attracts their attention. The
capacity to dwell for long time on
one thought involves both intensity
Of desire and innate ambition to reach
right results. have seen this strug-
gle for perfection in an incipient form
show itself in little child but is
months old. And how sincerely l
respected that little one. He was sit
ting in his mothers lap beside the II
brary table one evening, when In an
idle mood she took up penny and set
1t on the head OF small gilt image
three or four inches high and with a
head scarcely larger than the head of
the coin. Seeing that the baby watch
ed her, she said playfully: Baby can't
do that" The little ones brown eyes
sparkled with look that seemed to
say. "Oh, can't II" And taking tho
penny In his fingers he essayed to bal
ance 1t as she had done. 1t fell. Oh"
said the baby, quietly. and picking 1t
up tried again, with the same result.
without the least sign of discourage
ment Of impatience the little thing
tried over and over again for score Of
times, until at last he succeeded in
balancing the coin on the head OF the
image. The brave baby! We gave him
round OF applause, and he looked
from one to the other of us with curl
ous little glance of satisfaction. The
next day he could not be prevailed
upon to undertake the same feat again.
Once having demonstrated that ne
could do 1t the act lost its interest.
Here was a tiny hero in want of diff
ficulties to conquer; an infant Newton.

his whole mind upon a single object
so long as it was necessary for that
object to engross his attention.-Wom-
