Omaha, March 27.-A special to the

There is seemingly good reason for
believing that William j. Bryan is

TO Texas In the event OF his defeat for
president.

and more Particularly Senator Cul-
berson and Representative Bailey, look
upon Bryan's movements with con
siderable trcpidation and see In his
quiet trip 10 the Lone Star state much

are going TO school In Austin. They are
in love with the state, so 1t is said. as
is also Mrs. Bryan. Colonel Bryan
appeals TO the emotionalism of the
southerners 10 remarkable extent
and In point of fact his temperament
savors more OF the South than of the
North.
\ Texas congressman to-day said
that Mr.. Bryan was the idol of his
people and that should he meet defeat

as the nation. he saw no other future
for the Nebraska statesman than for
him to move To the imperial common.

Runs for tho Windows
Frankfort, KY, March 27.-The most
| thrilling event of the examining trial
| Of Republican Secretary of State Caleb
| Powers occurred this afternoon, short
| ly after three O'clock, and for n few
minutes 1t looked as though serious
| trouble could not be prevented. Judge
George Denny, for the defendant, In
an argument upon the competency OF
u question, said:
ut is perfectly lawful for people to
come here and to come armed. came
here several times myself"
He was referring to the crowd that
was present at the mass meeting held
in the state house yard just prior to
Governor Goebel's assassination.
Colonel Campbell for the prOsecu-
tion, replied that he did not consider
1t lawful and was surprised to know
that Mr.. Denny had come here armed.
Denny denied such n statement and
said he did not come armed. Campbell
Insisted that he had made the state
ment. Both men Were much excited
and spoke with vehemence, and with
arms shaking, commenced to advance
toward each other.
The court room wns crowded and the
audience evidently thought n fight was
on and made Il mad rush for the
doors and windows, people falling over
each other in their mad efforts TO get
out OF the room. Several policemen
and deputy sheriffs were crying for or
der and Judge Moore was bringing his
gavel down with terrific force and urg-
Ing the people to take their seats. Aft
er five or ten minutes of the most ex-
citing scenes since the assassination,
quiet was restored.
Just as soon as the room began to
grow orderly, Ex-Governor Brown, one
of the attorneys for the defense, whis-
pered to Colonel Campbell, who
promptly arose and apologized to
Judge Denny and the court, Judge
Denny replying in n happy speech. On
an inspection of the record 1t was
found that Colonel Campbell had mis-
construed Judge Denny's statement.
At the conclusion of the examination
of Golden. the commonwealth rested

Mrs. Golden would also be introduced

Sir John Murray in recent address
drew vivid picture OF the time, in
the remote future. when temperatures
rs low as those which Professor Dewar
produces in his experiments at the
Royal Institution will prevail all over
the earth. The atmosphere and the
oceans will then have disappeared
within the rocky crust Of the globe,
their elements having entered into
new combinations. In other words, to
use Sir John Murray's expression. "the
waters Of the ocean will have become
solid rock" But over their surface
will roll the waves OF new and most
wonderful sea. ian ocean of liquid air
about forty feet in depth" At that
time. of course. life as we know II will
have vanished from the earth.

A Tr,bute to American women.


"Why is itY" said an American lady
in London the other day, ''that most OF
you English people will persist in TAX
ing the noisy young woman of 18 or 20,
who stays alone at hotel and is her
own protector and chaperon, as the
typical American grip Probably the
easiest reply would have been to say
that the real Americans are so quiet
and ladylike that they attract no atten-
ton and that the pushful hotel young
lady was taken as the real representa-
tive of her countrywomen. 1t would
not have been, however, a fitting an
swer. There is no such thing as COM
monplace American women. Their clev-
erness, wit and bright womanly quail
ties make them conspicuous. They aim
at being real, helpful companions to
their husbands and brothers. Perhaps
that is why they have the best time of
any women ON earth. They have earn
ed the position they enjoy in the esti-
nation of their men folk, which made
Max O'Rell declare that If he had any
future reincarnation to undergo he
would beg the Great Ruler of the uni
verse to make him an American wo-
man, says the London Telegraph.
However, passing from that there is
really no excuse why the old traditions
should linger so obstinately in this
country. There are now hundreds of
American women permanently resident
in our metropolis, and they are supple
mented by thousands of their sisters,
whose brilliant intellectually every
summer adds something to the charm
and brightness of existence on this side
of the western ocean. The prominent
self protected American girl exists, but
she is not type. AS real American
/ lady said, "Most of us are neither
freaks nor frumps; we're just normal"
But that normality is, compared with
most of our own womankind, abnormal,
and it is our insular tendency to accept
as the type of our neighbors that which
differs most widely from ourselves.
After all, there is little difference be-
tween our national characteristics.
What the difference Is was very wittily
expressed by the lady quoted above.
She declared that both peoples were al
most alike. americans" she said, "are
self conscious"-at which some of hel
hearers seemed inclined to smile, but
she went on-"and self confident. The
English are self conscious and shy

Before leaving her position she had a

Wearing of mourning has altered
greatly during the last few years, the
time for going about in garbs of woe
having been greatly shortened, says
Woman's Life. Some people wear
black longer than others because they
were more particularly attached to the
lost relation or friend. But, putting
sentiment aside, the established rules
for mourning are as follows:
For a widow or widower, two years;
for the loss of parent, 10 months or
so; for grandparents, nine months; aft
er the death of grown up brother or
sister, one year; for child, according
to age, from three to nine months.
