Keen Rivals.

Some harsh things have been said and
will continue TO be said of Mount Vesuvius,
but one Omaha man and two Chicago men

the climax being the amicable meeting of
two men whose relations had been those Of

to the rule. Each. it had been heard,
would like to have known the other per

One day Mr.. Dietz took steamer for

of that trite saying, THE world is not so
large after all" Mr. Dietz was anxious to

To Mr.. Theodore Roosevelt, president of
the republic of the United States, from the
undersigned members of the French parli-

address President Roosevelt a testimonial
OF their high esteem and their grateful
sympathy for the persistent and decisive
initiative he has taken for substituting pro
excessively the friendly and judicial deter
mnaton of conflicts between nations, for
a determination by violence.
They have thought that the action of
Mr.. Roosevelt realizes the most generous
aspirations that history has recorded, sug-
costing the illustrious efforts of the past,
notably the project Of internati onal accord,
known under the name of the grand design
of Henry ", as set forth in the memoirs
of his first minister, the Due de Sully
In consequence they have secured a copy

they are happy to offer him, in asking him
