The funeral OF the late Mrs. s. A. Wal
worth, which was to have been held this
afternoon from the Congregational
church, was postponed indefinitely on
eccount Of the failure of Mrs. A. A..
Walsworth, OF Tempe. Ariz.. a daughter
.ir-law of the deceased, to arrive. Mrs.
Walsworth was expected Wednesday
night, but evidently failed to make the
proper connections. It is now thought
that she will surely arrive tonight and If
she does the funeral services will be held
Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock from
the church.

Certain councilmen have agreed to

nett desires. On his part the Mayor
resists all attempts at grating"
In the past certain councilmen eked

OF various kinds to the city. The
Mayor is making and has made a
strenuous effort to interfere with the
long established gratis" that a GER
tain kind OF councilman has worked.
In revenge the councilmen make him
what trouble they can. A graft"
that has been successfully operated
for years is very difficult to obstruct
or Interrupt. The mayor is doing his
conscientious and able best TO accom-
plish this feat and he has the SYM
pathy and confidence Of all those who
understand the situation. We groan
and sigh over Tammany-r ridden New
York. not realizing that there are
grafters in Lincoln who are doing the
same thing in smaller way. All
dealers have right to demand an
impartial consideration of their bids
for supplying the city. 1t may be
that the same men get certain con.
tracts year after because they sell
superior qualities at more reasonable
prices. If this be so it can be demon.

present system the widows ard spins
tiers are paying taxes voted upon their
property by meu whom they have had
no share in electing. The American
heart burns when the principle OF
taxation without representation is
advocated. There are few Americans
who will admit that the principle was
not worth fighting for by our ances.
tors, yet the same men ridicule wom-

Napoleon: The Last Phase


There are two human beings about
whom the world is never satisfied.
who are still and to every one a mys-
terry. There are other mysteries that
a few study and wonder about. But
all the world is interested in Napol-
con Bonaparte and eagerly reads every
new book about him. And Joan Of
Arc is the woman whose life and vic
tories have never been explained.
Between the stations which both
these people occupied at birth and at
death there is wide gulf of impos-
sible achievement. A gulf so wide
that no other man or woman has
crossed it unless it be Mahomet.

cesses,no other woman has ignored the

Woman Suffrage

woman SsonaSe
In about a month Mr.. Bixby, very
funny man on The Journal, will de-
bate the question Of woman suffrage
vith Miss Laura Gregg, the state
organizer OF the cause in Nebraska.
Whatever opinion one nay have Of
this question the debate will be in
teresting. 1 think Mr.. Bixby makes
the mistake Of Understanding the
ability and knowledge of all women
and Of women suffragists in particu-
lar. He has stated a number Of
times that woman is incapable OF
understanding the principles OF gov
eminent, that her horizon should be
bounded entirely by the palings Of
her dooryard and that il women were
to vote. mems stomachs must pay too
dear price.
As to the ability to understand the
principles Of government, the intel
lectual attainments of the modern
college women have settled that.
Woman's function has been preor-
dained and no legislation can change
it.. There are millions OF dollars
worth Of property 10 Lincoln owned
by spiusters and widows that is en-
tirely unrepresented. The council
men frequently have a very small
property interest ia Lincoln. Every
one has noticed how easy it is to dis
pose of other peoples property.
Think OF the reams of advice Carne-
gle has received about dispOsing Of
his surplus from poor but penurious
busybodies who, IL possessed OF his
income, would not give away dollar
of it. A father in this city has two
sons. One is earning hundred dol
lars a month. The father clothes, feeds
and lodges the other one. The two
young men needed suits of clothes
and they went into store together
to buy them. The one who supported
himself bought suit for fourteen
dollars and the one who is support
ed by his father bought a suit for
twenty dollars. The one who was
spending his own money was more
careful. Councilmen who have small
or no property interests are inclined
10 be open handed. 1t is natural, not
vicious. Every one likes to spend
money and il the desire can be graft
fed without decreasing ones own sur
plus the temptation is irresistible.

Napoleon would have conquered a
gain. He had the army. and diff
culties were not so great as those he
had overcome in many harder cam
paigns.
Lord Rosebery's book deals with
Napoleon at st. helena, as the title
implies. Most of the members of the
small suite which accompanied him
to the island of exile have published
memoirs Of Napoleon. They purport
to be extracts from diaries kept at
the time. but there is internal evil
dence that the diaries were written
long after the events recorded.
The manuscripts have been so doc
tored that documentally they are in
competent. Lord Kosebery has made
a comparative study Of the various
diaries" and conclusively proves
their partial unreliability. "And yet
to accuse all these authors Of unve-
racity would not be fair. 1t was rare.
ly, if ever, wanton. Partly from
idolatry Of Napoleon, partly to keep
up a dramatic representation Of
events at St. Helena, and so bring
about his liberation, facts were omit
ted or distorted which in any way
reflected on their idol or tended to
mar the intended effects. There
seems to have been something 10 the
air of st. Helena that blighted exact
truth: and he who collects the vari-
Gus narratives on any given point will
find strange and hopeless cOntradic-
tiOns."
Gourgaud, who was sort of Forest
of Arden Jaques for sOlemnity and
disgruntlement, has still, says Lord
Roseberv. written the capital and su-
preme record. His journal is genuine
and it was written entirely for his
own eye and conscience. He alone of
all the chrohiclers strove to be &C.
curate, and on the whole succeeded.
For no man would willingly draw
such portrait of himself as Gour-
gaud has page by page delineated.
He takes. indeed, the greatest pains
to prove that no more captious, can
tanKerous, sullen and impossible
being than himself has ever existed.
she watched his master like a jealous
woman; as Napoleon himself remark
ed, He loves me as lover loves his
mistress; he was impossible"
In spite Of the contradictions OF his
material the author of "The Last
Phase" has drawn conclusions and
presented them with great discrim-
ination aud convincingly enough.
OF the many memoirs Of Napoleon /
know Of none more satisfactory than
this 1t is the more satisfactory that
it does not attempt to deal with more
than one phase and period Of his life.
For as Metternicb, Napoleon's enemy
and most hostile tiographer, says Of
him: "He was born an administra-
tor, legislator, and cOnQueror."
In all the days since the creation
there has been only one Napole-
on, and one author, no matter how
gifted, has yet succeeded in pre-
pairing a satisfactory life. Lord Rose.

Faith.
In spite Of the real snobbery that has
invaded naval affairs, Americans hate
it. The mourning for Mr.. Nc
Kinley is so deep, personal and sin
cere because he was such a simple
hearted, good man. We do not mourn
for him because he enlarged the mar
kets Of this country, because he ruled
wisely and we'll, but because he loved
the people, believed in their integrity
and love, and was simple man with
a child heart and child's faith.
Not for long time have the north and
south, east and west, been so emotion
ally and demonstratively OF one nina.
The atheist is an egoist supreme.
Nearly all the men who make virtue
of unbelief are egoists. Their own
person and personality hide God. The
man of faith does not talk much
about his faith. 1t is working plan
and he knows it by heart. The athe-
ist is always striking an attitude and
defying something that does not an
swer challenges.
1t is curious that the faithful fol-
lower Of any religion does not say
much about what comforts him in
sorrow, brightens his life and makes
him willing to die. mans belief is
an important matter. 1t is like the
plan of his house. According to the
owners taste. it may be stone or
brick or wooden house, it may have
windows that afford a magnificent
view or it may look out onto alleys
and polluted places. There are houses
built with no windows on the out
side, where all the openings give on
an inner court which may be pretty
enough, but small and with no hOri-
zon. The latter is the sort Of a plan
the atheists prefer. They have too
short vision to be really useful to
the world and their generation.
They say that a cowboy Of the west
can see further than other men. His
eyes. trained for years to see small
specks of things miles away that he
knows are cattle. are educatedlin see
ing. 1t is only necessary for Ecity
people to see across the street and
they cannot see much farther. The
optic nerve is not trained to long
distance seeing. Mr.. Mckinley was
accustomed to strain his vision to the
most distant corner of America. l be.
lieve there was never truly helpful,
great man who was at the same time
an atheist. To help others one must
believe implicitly, and without de-
handing proof, in God and man.
