Furnish Bail.

F. b. Murtha, late proprietor of the
Marshall House, has been unable to ar
range bail, and is still held in the county
jail on a charge of forging the name of
his uncle, Mr.. M. Boley, to note for
$780, Murtha had LEASED the hotel from
Mrs. A. r. Mallette, who, until quite
recently, was in charge of the place.
Mrs. Mallette resumed the management
yesterday morning, to protect her inter-
ests. During the day an effort was made
to attach the Kitchen range. but this was
resisted and the guests managed to get
their meals without any trouble or de-
lay. The note which bore the alleged
forged Endorsement, was made payable
to Mrs. Mallette. and she signed the war
rant for Murtha's arrest.

Got Half n shave.

One the returning troopships from
South Africa the merry English SOL
diers are given to pranks. None Of
the men on the ships recently in had
shaved on the voyage till nearing
southampton, when there was gen.
eral request for razors. 1t happened
that there was only one to be had, all
the others probably being packed
away with the heavy luggage in the
hold. The owner of the solitary razor
consented to lend 1t round, but on
condition that each one should shave
half his face only at one turn, the
owner then to have first use. He
carefully shaved one side of his face
and then passed the razor on. In due
time the razor came back to its
owner, who at once trimmed the
other side of his face and tossed the
razor into the sea. How they all
groaned. And yet they never laughed
more than they did after they got
over the first shock. When they land
ed every man seemed to have bad
face ache, to judge from the hand
kerchiefs and scarfs which were held
up, and there was an immediate rush
to the nearest barber shop. Chi

BRYAN QUALITIES,
Ths Nebraska Editor Takes the Peo-
pie Into His Confidence
Through His Paper.

Trifes sometimes indicate the drift
of things, particularly in politics.
Owing to number of recent unim-
portant occurrences, the discussion of
Mr.. Bryan's future as democratic
leader and possible presidential candi-
date has been revived in the more
speculative section of the press. The
other day the Nebraska editor was di-
rectly questioned by Chicago inter-
viewer as to his attitude, and he was
distinctly noncommittal in his eX-
pressions. But there is an editorial in
the Commoner purporting to take the
public into Mr. Bryan's confidence, and
it is interesting to glance at its central
statement.
There is an air of extreme frankness
about it, but. after all, it does not tell
us anything definite. Mr.. Bryan says
that he is not planning" for another
presidential nomination. This is SUI
perhuous. The time for planning has
not arrived. President McKinley's
second term is not yet two months old,
and the new congress will not convene
for several months. Mr.. Bryan adds:
eff ever l become a candidate again it
will be because it seems necessary for
| the advancement of the principles to
! which adhere, and that does not now
seem probable. / shall, however, take
an interest in politics for several years

Paddy, the Yankee and the Turtle.

In New York man was carrying q
live turtle along the street, when by
came an Irishman, followed by large
dog. The countryman tried by gen.
tie words to get the son of the Emer-
aid isle to put his finger into the
turtles mouth, but he was too smart
for that.
'But," said Pat, "I'll put my dogs
tail in, and see what the haste will
do"
He Immediately called up his dog,
took his tail in his hand and stuck it
in the turtles mouth. He had scarce
ly got it in when Mr.. Turtle shut
down on the poor dogs tail, and of
the latter started at railroad speed,
pulling the turtle after him at a more
rapid rate than ever it had travelled
before. The countryman, thinking
that his days work would be thrown
away, IL the animal should run at
that rate, turned with a savage look
upon the Irishman and exclaimed:
"Call back your dog!"
Paddy put his hands into his peck.
cts, threw his head to one side,
winked, and then answered, with a
provoking sang froid: "Call back

M'K1NLEY's LITTLE SPEECHES
Wholesome Eject OF the Chief Mag
istrate's Talks with the
People.

As a maker of little speeches that
reach the minds and the hearts of his
hearers, and produce a deeper and
more lasting effect than most longer
efforts of the kind, President McKin-
ley is without n peer. On not few
previous occasions he has shown him
self to be possessed of the ability to
say much of the right sort in few
words, and the conditions which con-
front him everywhere on his present
trip are well calculated to develop still
further the faculty which he possesses
in so high degree. He is always the
staunch patriot, the cheerful optimist;
but his optimism never drifts from its
basis of fact. He does not color his
description of conditions; but in brief,
forceful words, he brings out their
gratifying details and compels atten-
ton to them even from those who are
inclined to take prosperity as a matter
of course, worthy of no special notice,
and are ordinarily aroused from in
difference only when conditions are,
or threaten to become, awry. There

dency to eXaggeration; he appeals to

THE CHAMBERS OF THE HEART

There are chambers In the human heart.
Where We bestow our treasures rare
Where memories sweet and thoughts so
dear,
Are hidden from the worlds rude stare.
And no one knows the wealth we own,
AL slowed away and safely hid,
Nor how we feast in them alone.
And no one TO our paLQuet bid.
And there are graves within the heart
A silent city of the dead"
And sometimes In the silent night,
Among those graves alone we tread.
Alone, for sacred Is the spot,
And little would the cold world care
That here we buried hopes and joys,
And here we knclt in meek dispair.
And in the heart are newborn hopes.
That fill our lives with sweet, glad
dreams,
And life is ever more to us
Than to the outside world 1t seems.
How empty life would be without
The treasures we have slowed away,
sOn which to feed our memory
On every dark and dreary day!

yet, if live, and can be relied upon to
support those who as candidates advo-
cate the democratic principles and
who can be trusted to enforce them If
elected"
1t does not now "seem probable"
that Mr.. Bryan's candidacy will be
necessary for the advancement of his
principles, but if the necessity should
arise and the party should knock at
Mr.. Bryan's door he is not the man to
decline the burden of leadership. If
this does not mean that Mr.. Bryan is
willing, even anxious, to be a candidate
"for the sake of his principles" it
means nothing at all, and this alterna-
tive is not reasonable.
But the necessity will not arise. The
democratic party is drifting and show
ing no signs of reconciliation, but it is
almost certain that none of the issues
of the late election will survive the
year 1908. Free silver is dead beyond
peradventure, and the question of i'm
perialism will be settled by the SUI
preme court. The Filipinos will be
pacified and headed toward substan-
tial autonomy and independence. New
issues will doubtless arise, for stag
nation is not condition familiar to
Americans, but they will call for new
leaders, and the democratic party is
vigorous enough to furnish them with
out galvanizing the political dead. Mr..
Bryan stood for body of doctrines,
and he will disappear with it.-Chicago
Post.
