The lecture-room was lighted and heated
for the occasion and many fingered until
late in the evening discussing the SIT
uation and interchanging views. Sub
jects of interest were the presiding elder
matter, the question Of the transfer OF
ministers to the Virginia Conference, and
the perennially fresh subject OF the
changes in the churches. The last re-
ceived by far the bulk Of the attention OF
the delegates and many interesting ru-
mors were discussed. Incidentally the
newspapers We're given rub or two IN
connection with their efforts to uproot
everything in the conference
The Norfolk churches, accoding to
delegates from that section, will have
glowing reports this year. Epworth will
have the best financial and numerical
report in its history. During the year
there have been seventy-four additions.
One of the members has given legacy
of S, 900, which wipes out the entire indebt
edness of about $4,000. The Rev. c. L..
Bane, of Cumberland Street, will also
have fine report. The church has paid
up on all of her assessments in full,
leaving handsome surplus in the treas
uy for missions.

but none so eloquent as that rustic OF

boughs of beautiful trees, where woods
there were none before the sage of Arbor
Lodge adopted his motto, "Plant Trees. "
LINCOLN.
State Journal. A volume could be
written on the culture, the ability, the
strength and the achievements of this
remarkable man. It is but weak and
trite to say that his death will cause
sorrow to the entire state. He was
foremost citizen not only Of Nebraska,
but of the entire West. The passing
of such a man is a national loss.
NeaUs. There never was man OF
kinder heart when once his acquaint-
ance was made. He was many sided
man he was a poet and humorist,
among other things, and his eye was ever
keen to behold the romantic or the beauti
full. We never knew man so absolute
ly honest and fearless in his utterance.
Post. All in all Nebraska never had
an ADLER nor better citizen than Mr..
Morton, and without reference to party
or faction there is a statewide express
sion of sorrow at his death.
State Record. From the day in 1854
when he crossed the Missouri river, up
to the day he crossed the other river, he
was one of the foremost men in both
public and private life. In the years,
meteoric men came in sight and disap-
peared, but Morton held his place, as he
holds it yet. In his life he formed
friendships of rugged men and inspired
sentiments not surpassed in beauty and
tenderness in the literature of the
world.
NEBRASKA CITY.
Daily Tribune. The eulogy, the
epitaph of j. Sterling Morton, will
be written by men who have seen
him at work through fifty years Of
conscientious effort; who have stood
by his side while great state was
being created on the bare prairie
along lines planned by him and men
like him. The writer of this, lov-
ing and admiring pupil-proud now
to be able to call himself pupil-of
Mr.. Morton's for the last dozen
years, has no thought today but to
express some sense of the loss that he
and his fellow-to -townsmen feel, when
they realize that never again shall
they see that erect, manly old figure,
feel the grasp of that strong hand,
look into the kindly fire of those
keen eyes nor listen to the wisdom of
that ripened brain.

to encourage and assist any enterprise
that would prove beneficial to the city.
Press. Coming to Nebraska when it
was wilderness, locating on un-
broken prairie land contiguous to Ne
braska City, the ambition of Mr.. Nor
ton has been less the acquisition of
wealth or the praises of fame, than the
establishment of home in the truest
and best Specification of the term. \ n
Of all the good Mr.. Morton has done
for Nebraska City perhaps the greatest
consists in the number of young men he
has assisted to secure good positions
Having been eminently successful in
rearing family of boys, Mr. Morton
was doubtless better qualified to give
advice to young man than any other
man in the state.
Staats-Zeitung. No wonder that the
grief for him who is departed is uni
versal. But his name will live on in
the annals of the nation and the state
and in the hearts of our citizens, and
his works follow him. Soft may he
rest!
ALLIANCE.
Pioneer Grip. In ages to come those
trees planted on the day designated by
law as a public holiday will stand as
living monuments to great name,
their branches daily bowling to the
kindly spirit of him whose kindly ma
ture made it possible for them to live to
bless the earth and mankind.
ARAPAHoE.
Public Mirror. The trees planted by
thousands of youthful hands will typify
his inspiration to make Nebraska beau
tiful.
ASHLAND.
Gazette. He came inspired with
lofty ideals for the development of the
state of his adoption, and he lived to
see them realized in measure far ex-
ceeding his anticipations.

Bee. Never popular in a political
sense, and never seeking popularity by
the devices of demagogue, j. Sterling
Morton was at all times man of cul-
ture and positive force, exerting his tai
ents and influence for the elevation of
the standard of public morals and the
cultivation of the civic virtues. He
despised hypocrisy and detested i'm
posture of every sort, and often told un-
palatable truths when it would have
been more profitable to him to dissimu-
late. He preached and talked the gospel
of work as the only safe ladder to sue
cess and fame and continued through
lifetime to practice what he preached.
World Herald. In his later years he
became bitter and harsh in judging his
former political allies and they were
equally severe with him. It must be
conceded, however, that as party out
cast he stood by his convictions with
a sincerity and vigor as marked as
when he led the democratic party of
Nebraska, year after year, to certain
defeat.
NeWs. With boundless and dauntless
courage as two Of his most noticeable
characteristics, Mr.. Morton was magni-
ficently equipped to bear manly part
in the development of a territory just
struggling into statehood Among his
other abilities he was the possessor of a
command of language that was most
gratifying to his friends but wonderful
ly disconcerting to those whom he op-
posed.
Excelsior. Sterling Morton was
great Nebraskan, one of the most noted
the state has ever produced, and noted
in way that did honor to the COM
monwealth. What he stood for was
what we would most expect the east to
seek and what he abhorred was what
we have been trying to cast without our
borders.
Examiner. From the sphere of
earthly endeavor J. Sterling Morton is
removed, but so we'll were his efforts
executed that his memory shall be in
destructible. Upon the vast reticula-
tions O.. industry, ramifying through
this western territory in the develop
ment of its natural resources, the i'm
preston of his gianthood is indelibly
stamped. In living monuments of
waving boughs and singing leaves his
praises will be sung and never his
requiem.

FISHING FOR MUsKIEs.
Fifty Feet Of Copper Wire Brought

novice that gets big fish. Well, 1 was
trolling by a certain weed bed when I
got an awful strike. I forgot 10 tell
you that was using a spoon hook big
enough to hang a side of beef, with
feathers enough TO clOthe a hen, and a
strip of salt pork a yard long. Well,
the fish got OF. and when I reeled in
l found he had bit off six inches of the
line
II put on another hook and trolled
back over the same ground. Same re-
suit. Big strike. FISH OF, six inches
more line gone. I'm fix that muskie
now, said I. and TO a third hook I tied

GoRGED TROUT BITE WORST.
Theory of an Angler Who Offers the
Proof.
New York SUM

tNeW 1ork sum-
Every trout fisherman knows that there
are days when trout will neither rise to
any fly nor take any sort OF bait, and
the reason for this is that the trout are
gOrged with the natural food of the wa
ters they are .in-"ain't hungry" as the
homely phrase Is. Here is the theory OF
an old angler on the subject:
OF course, even during these off days
OF the trout. one will be caught now
and then. but always on bait, and II the
angler could see the fish when IL takes
the bait he would notice that IL does IL
IN a very perfunctOry manner. The trout
does not move out of its way In doing il,
but mechanically takes the bait much
after the fashion OF the sucker.
Then. IL the trout fisherman who makes
catch at such a time will open the
trout and examine its stomach he viii be
surprised To find that instead of the fish
being g0rged with food. and hence in
different to more, its stomach has not a
trace Of food in a.
This will be found 20 be the case in
variably and dispOses of the belief that
when trout refuse TO bite II is because
they are already fun OF food. II would
naturally be supposed that the best time
10 catch trout would be when they are
hungry. and that the time when they are
the hungriest would be when their stom-
achs are empty yet. paradoxical as II
may seem 10 be, such is not the case.
II win be found that when trout are
rising best to the fly. or are taking bait
with most avidity there IS plenty Of food
In their stOmachs, frequently so much in
fact, that II would seem impossible that
any more could be taken in.
Why this should be. no one can tell. IL
is a fact nevertheless, which any fish
erman may easily verify by investiga-
ton.

FISHING TIME.

On what / have TO do.
A picture haunts nay inner eye
OF waters swift and blue
Ny fingers itch 10 cast a fly,
The bells OF memory chime
And call me 70 the woods and fields,
For this Is fishing time.
I dream OF messy stepping stones
In lazy amber brooks.
or grassy banks with blossoms bright,
And silent shady hooks.
Where / forget the world OF toll
And wash away its CRIME
In crystal depths OF running streams
That sing OF fishing time.
I long TO see the sunfish play.
The minnows merry school.

Or in his favorite pool
And. ali the silver fiuny folk
That throng the watery cline;
SO hand me out the old brown coat
