WILL BRYAN DENoUNcE RAILEY2
SuIIivan's Friends Will Demand An
swer from the Nebraskan.

Chicago, Sept. lis the same edict
of party communication for cor
poration fealty" to be hurled by Will
liam Jennings Bryan against Senator
Joseph w. Bailey, of Texas, Demo
cratic leader on the floor of the United
States senate and a presidential pos
sibility, as was pronounced against
Roger c. Sullivan, mere national
committeeman? Mr.. Sullivan and his
friends will demand an answer to this
question from the apostle of Demo
cratic purity. They declare that Mr.
Bryan will not dare to apply the same
rule of party righteousness to one so
high as Senator Bailey in the councils
of the party, even though the Texas
senator has been branded as a legal
agent of the Standard Oil company,
an object of attack by both his state
and the national government.

The "intellectuals" of Sweden have
been much exercised over the kings
refusal to ratify the election of Prof.
Schuk, of the University of Upsala, to
the Swedish academy, although he
was elected by an overwhelming ma
jority of the academicians. The yea-
son of King Oscars opposition to him
is that he has written a history of
Gustavus Ill, the tone of which is
displeasing to the present sovereign.
Partisans of the professor have been
saying that this is going long way
for an offense, since Gustavus III. has
been dead much more than 100 years,
and considerably antedated the found
ing of the present Bernadotte dy-
nasty. But apparently the freedom
of teaching" is doomed to meet snags
now and then, in Sweden as well as
in America.

FINDS VIRTUE IN OLD CLOTHES.
Mems Garments Shaped to the Figure
by Age Catch Artists Eye.

To the eye Of the artist the gar
ments of the modern man are only
tolerable when age has adapted them
somewhat to the lines of the figure;
to the average artist new suit OF
clothes is an abomination.
1T is not only that new clothes are
more ugly than DID," said knight Of
ton; ito my mind no one can be prop
erly easy or graceful in them.
81 never feel that l properly know a
man until have met him wearing an
old suit. Certainly no man can posi-
by be his natural self in evening
dress.
Il have noticed again and again
how different the same people are
when wearing different clothes. 1
went, for instance, to a large family
gathering some time ago, and for
some reason everybody had donned
full evening dress. What a differ
ence it made! We were all on terms
of intimate fl end ship, but somehow
the clothes brought in an element Of
GOODNESS and formality. We all felt
it-even the women, although, Of
course, the fair sex are not easily per-
suaded of the merits of well-worn gar
ments. But no man who has discov-
cred the ease and comfort of them
will readily give them up. AS for the
artistic side of modern clothes, it only
comes when they have mellowed by

A NERVOUS WRECK
Mrs. Green Gained 20 Pounds and
Recovered Her Health by TAKING
Dr.. Williams Pink Pills.

General debility is term that covers
multitude of cases where there is no
acute disease, yet the patient continues
to lose strength and the doctors medi-
cines have no apparent effect. This is
the decline that leads to death if means
are not found to check it. In a great
majority of cases DR.. Williams Pink
Pills will check it and restore health and
strength because they actually make new
blood and so send renewed vitality to
every organ and tissue of the body.
Mrs. S. A. Green, whose address is

says: 'For three and half years i
suffered with weakness and nervous

periods ranging from three weeks to two
months and was under the physician
care most Of the time for three years. !

was Frustrated with weakness and, al
though took great deal of medicine,
nothing seemed to give me strength. At
times my stomach hurt me something
fearful and my head often troubled me.
l was sleepless and what sleep did get
did not refresh me.
When began taking DR. Williams
Pink Pills, weighed but 104 pounds.
l knew was so bad that a few doses
would not cure me and had patience.
Soon the pills began to give me strength,
my blood got in better condition, could

REBELS MAY take
CITY OF Havana
INSURGENTS SURROUND CAPITAL
AND MAY GREET TAFT PARTY
ON ARRIVAL.
SUBJ Officers from the Denver Are
Stopped on the Highway by Bullets
from Guns of DisIoyal cubans, but
None Is Hurt.

Havana, Sept. 1S.-When Secretary
Taft reaches Havana he may be re-
ceived by the rebels and welcomed to
their captured city.
Fully 1000 insurgents are within
six miles of Havana, according to the
admission of government officials.
Pine Guerra's force is not more
preaching.
Havana itself is filed with leaders
of the insurrection, who move with
the utmost freedom since President
Palmas proclamation.
The intention of the revolutionists
is said to be to enter the city, peace
ably if allowed to, and by force of
arms if they are not.
The only results thus far of Presi-
dent Palma's order for the suspension
of hostilities have been that liberal
leaders, who hitherto have had every
reason for anticipating arrest, are cir
culating openly in Havana again, and
even comforting with members of the
government with regard to peace, and
that such insurgents in the field as
have been consulted, while they eX-
press themselves as agreeable to set
ting matters amicably, at the same
time assume an independent attitude
which cannot be said to bode particu-
larly we'll for a prompt settlement of
existing difficulties.
Americans Fired Upon.
Sunday night several sub-officers of
the Denver, who were automobiling
in the country, were fired upon by the
insurgents. Fortunately no one was
injured. Some time since the govern
ment prohibited automobiling within
the city, only officials being allowed
to go out of the city limits in motor
cars. The insurgents were expecting
Gov Muniez and held up the first au-
tomobile.
After the first volley profuse apollo
gies were made when the mistake was
discovered, but it was explained it
was natural to mistake the automobile,
when no private automobiling is al
lowed. After starting, another squad
of insurgents fired on the automobile
party, but no damage was done.
Further apologies and explanations
were made, and the party then re-
manned the balance of the night in a
small town, returning to Havana at
nine o'clock Monday morning.
Rebels Rest on Their Arms.
Felipe Romero, who was instrument
tai in reviving the peace negotiations,
said that the insurgents outside of Ha-
vana were ready to resort to arms at
a moments notice if evidence devel-
oped of lack of faith on the part of
the government, but that they were
anxious to accelerate the peace efforts
if justice was done.
He added that the presence of the
cruiser Denver had nothing to do with
their remaining out of Havana.

ATTEMPT TO HOLD UP TRAIN
CONDUCTOR FOIlS MASKED MEN
NEAR PEORIA.
Quartette of Bandits Meet with Such
Sturdy Resistance They Become
Alarmed and Depart.

Peoria, ILL.,, Sept 15.-Four masked
men attempted to hold up passenger
train No. 81 on the Rock Island road
one and one-half miles north of Peo-
ria, Friday night at ten o'clock, and
but for the presence of mind of Con-
ductor Robert Murray, who disarmed
one of the men, after being struck on
the head, the passengers would have
been robbed.
There were about 100 people on the
train, which left Chicago at six
o'clock.
Sheriff Potter and a force of depu-
ties and Peoria policemen are search
ing the woods near the scene of the
attempted hold-up.
The would-be robbers placed an OBJ
structlon of railroad ties on the track,
which brought the train to a stand
still. They then, at the point of re-
volvers, commanded the engineer and
fireman to remain on the engine. Run
ming back to the front end Of the

with drawn revolvers.

pushed a gun into his face. He struck
the weapon up and knocked it from
the mans hand. He was struck over
one wrist and over the head with a
club, but the robbers became alarmed
at his unexpected resistance and fed.
The men are described as being
about 25 or 80 years of age, all of
slight build. All wore masks, but evil
IDENTIFY were amateurs at the business.
A posse of deputy sheriffs and Off
GERS left the city in automobiles to
search the vicinity of the attempted
hold-up, but reported no captures.
One travelling man, representing a
Peoria brewer, had on his person 3d.

UNVEILED AMID POMP AND
CEREMONY.
Tribute to First President of United
States in Capital of Monarchy
Marked by Parade of 10000 Per-
sons, Who Place Flowers on Statue.

Budapest, Sept. 17.-Sunday was
George Washington day in Hungary

morning until night gave itself up to
enthusiasm over the unwilling on
monarchial territory Of a monument
to the first president of the United
States.
The Stars and Stripes and the
Hungarian colors intertwined were
to be seen everywhere
In the morning there were special
sermons in many of the churches, the
preachers calling attention to the i'm.
portance of the event.
In the afternoon thousands of per.
sons lined the streets through which
passed an imposing parade to the city
park, in which the monument stands
Thirty thousand persons were in the
park, which was surrounded by many
thousands more.
Sing National Hymns.
Prior to the unwilling united choirs
sang the Hungarian and then the
American national anthem and other
hymns.
The monument was unveiled amid
scenes of great enthusiasm. Herr
Rakovski, vice president of the
chamber of deputies, was the orator
of the day. He dwelt at length on
Washington great work for the
cause of civilization, not only for the
United States, but for all the world
He said the standard set by the father
of the American republic had infiu
enced Louis Kossuth, and that by
that standard Hungary's greatness
would be attained.
Mr.. Kohanyi in a speech praised
American institutions and freedom
He said observation-disclosures were
true citizens of the republic, but
would always keep up their love fol
their native country.
Cover Statue with Flowers.
Mayor Bauzy, of Budapest, prom
ised to take good care of the monu
ment, which, he said, was splendid
evidence of the friendship between
the two peoples, and hoped it would
last forever
After other speeches the people
paraded past the monument, covering
the pedestal with wreaths and floral
designs.
At the banquet at night, Herr
Bauzy toasted President Roosevelt
and Consul General Chester proposed
the health of the king of Hungary.

A wise doctor tries to give nature

Five years ago." writes a doctor,
81 commenced to use Postum in my
so well pleased with the results that
l had two grocers place it in stock,
guaranteeing it's sale.
Il then commenced to recommend
1t to my patients in place of coffee,
as a nutritious beverage. The conse-
quence is, every store in town is now
selling it, as it has become house
hold necessity in many homes.
I'm sure I prescribe Postum as
often as any one remedy in the Ma
terra Medica-in almost every case of
Indigestion and nervousness I treat,
and with the best results.
when I once introduce it into
family, it is quite sure to remain. l
shall continue to use it and prescribe
it in families where l practice.

New Army Bullet.
Min N,

1t would seem that in the type of
bullet about to be adopted by the
army there is potent argument for
peace. This bullet is a third light
er than any now in use, but 1t Is
most deadly. Its penetrating power ID
such that at mile it would pass
through Is men, if these had the
mischance to stand in line in front
of it. At short range. says the Phila-
delphia Ledger, it will go through 80
inches of seasoned oak. At 500 yards
80 inches of white pine fail to stop
IT, and at 1000 yards it is equal to
piercing 14h inches. The day when
safety lies in lodging behind a tree
appears to be passing. The strong
point about this admirable bullet Is
the fiat trajectory With the present
style of bullet, fired at target 1000
yards distant, one could stand with
perfect immunity at many points be-
at so yards the missile would pass
II feet over his head. The new bull
let shows ten-foot rise at this dis
lance. Almost the entire space
between muzzle and target would be
q zone Of danger. Only one fault is
found by experts with the modern bull
let, and this is a lack of accuracy.
They think this may be overcome,
and even If it shall not be remedied
regiment advancing and sowing the
field ahead with bullets capable OF
penetrating whatever they happen to
hit would discomfort the enemy. 1t
is not probable that advocates OF
peace will admire the fresh device for
promoting the effectiveness of troops,
but they may gain some comfort from
the thought that an implement so de-
structive might give pause to the i'm
pulse to declare war, and. anyhow,
that battle marked by it's use would
be brief.

SEEKS TO ACQUIRE RAILROAD
Mexican Minister Goes to Europe to
Bring About Transfer OF Line.

Mexico City, Sept. lit is gener-
allv understood that one of the prin-
cipal objects of Finance Minister
Limantour' trip to Europe is to bring
about the acquisition of the Mexican
Central railroad by the Mexican gov
eminent, and this supposition is
STRENGTHENED to considerable extent
by the fact that Vice President Rich
ards, of the Mexican Central has also
gone to Paris.
The acquisition of the railroad is
a thing which would have great pc.
litical significance, as, it is believed
that the only way that the roads can
be regulated in order to avoid discrim-
ination in the matter Of rates.

o'clock Sunday morning water from
a cloudburst in the northwestern part

There are too many attachments to
our schools-indeed, it has come to
pass that they are schools and some
times more. They should be simply
schools, says the Indianapolis News.
At least social distractions should be
kept out Of them. Parents, often at
large expense, send their children
away to boarding school that they may
have time for their studies and be
freed from the demands Of society.
But we are making our high schools
social institutions. This, we think, is
. tendency that should be checked.
