worth died yesterday April Is, 1906,
at the Hudson Sanitarium. She
had long been afflicted with rheu-

Dispatches of last night and this
morning tell of terrible calam ity
that has befallen the people in Cal
ifornia from the catastrophe of a
severe earthquake. San Francisco,
as far as the news received shows,
seems to have suffered most. The
city is half in ruins and conhagra-
ton is destroying the rest. Some
reports give the loss Of life in San
Francisco alone at $500 while the
property loss is estimated at $500,
100000. The news service is so
badly demoralized that definite
accounts of conditions in the disturb
ed district is slow in transmission.
A tidal wave, the after result of the
seismic disturbance, is feared.
The Odd Fellows of the city and
vicinity attended Easter services
last Sunday at the Episcopal church
by invitation of the acting rector,
E. /. Gilmore. The members of the
fraternity report very pleasing
and impressive service. The music
was especially fine and appropriate
to the occasion, the resident choir
being assisted by some excellent
singers from Ellsworth-Frank
Mumford, tenor; Lenton Muggah,
baritone; and the Misses Josephine
and Alberta Muggah, alto and So
prano. Miss Alberta Muggah sang
solo which was much appreciated
by all, proving herself TO be sing
er of exceptional ability. Miss Kel-
logg's solo was also rendered with
delight to the audience. The sing
ers of the choir of ST. Johns church
of Ellsworth who assisted in the
musical features of the services at
Trinity church last Sunday won the
admiration of the entire audience.
They will always receive a cordial
welcome in this city. The address
! by Mr.. Gilmore was appropriate to
the Easter occasion and was well
received.

Easter Sunday was sunny but not
very warm, as the wind blew from

House plants and flowers were in
abundant display, adding a cheer

were appropriate to the occasion.

The Girls Contest

Inc M. Il. CnurCn was nlleQ Tues
day evening by On audience of high
school pupils and their friends to
listen to the annual declamatory
contest of the high school girls. 1t
might be enough to say that this
contest was one of the best of the
very good contests that the high
school furnishes, but the work seems
TO merit further mention than that.
The contest was to select a speaker
to represent the school at the league
contest at Ellsworth, and it was
won by Miss Allie Hamilton. 1t is
no disparagement to the other
speakers to say that Miss Hamil-
toms success was deserved. In the
first place, the advantage was all
with her. This is her third season
in contest work, and last year she
won the local and the league contest.
No other speaker could show such
experience, most of them appearing
on the contest for the first time.
Therefore she ought to win. But
she deserved her success also from
the character of her work. She
shows the result of her training,
and is strong in all the points that
go to make a good speaker. But
the others were good speakers, too,
and in spite of the handicap of
training many of them made show
ing a close second to Miss Hamilton
and will doubtless be heard from in
| future contests. Miss Ethel Chap
man, in "How the Church was Built
at Kehoe's Bar" was clear, earnest,
natural and forceful in her speak
ing Her narrative parts were es-
pecially strong. The story of the
Inmate of the Dungeon" by Miss
Agnes Linehan was told in a way
that showed sympathy and ability
of high order. "The Storming of
Mission Ridge" by Miss Della
Sweet, presented that famous battle
to the audience in a spirited and
realistic manner. Miss Josephine
Holmes in 'The Last of the Roman
Tribunes" gave powerful descrip-
tion of the burning of Rome and the
murder of Rienzi by a Roman mob.
"The acquitta1 of Ben Thomas"
was simply and forcefully told by
Miss Winona Taylor. Miss Loretta
Bailey gave thrilling description
of Indian warfare in Rays Ride.
Her descriptive powers and the eli
max of her piece were especially
strong. The Execution of Rodri-
guez," a Cuban rebel, was told sim
ply and naturally and with much
feeling by Miss Myrtle WOODBURY..
In "The Sign of the Cross" Miss
Grace Lamson gave very forceful
presentation of scene in Roman
circus during the reign of Nero.
The music by the Girls Glee Club
was especially good and shows that
the school under the tutelage of
Miss Ames is taking no backward
step in the musical line. Miss
Ames's solo was sung with her u.s.
ual ease and expression and called
for an encore.
The whole program was credit
to the school, and patrons, scholars
and teachers may be proud of such
exhibitions.

cial train from the northwest he was pre-
scented with the questions which have been
appearing on the front page OF The Bee

porter for The Bee.

my own way and I don't propose to let
anyone tell me what shall talk about.

often. but I never pay any attention to
them"
Mr.. Bryan was asked about the letter
given out by Bird s. Coler In which Mr..
Bryan endorsed w. K Hearst as governor
Of New YorE and he said;
THAT letter is absolutely authentic and
I authorized MIR. Coler TO give II publicity.
Ever since Mr.. Hearst was nominated /

interviews and doing everything I pos
sibly could TO promote the candidacy Of
Mr.. Hearst"

Bryan made a thirty-one minutes speech
at the opera house here this evening. He
only made ten minutes talk at Elkhorn

twenty minutes late, and Hon G.. NJ.

endeavored to hold the crowd until Bryan
arrived. The opera house was oiled TO its
utmost capacity. Mr.. Hitchcock's advocacy
of and what he did for the postal savings
bank law and the reduction of freight and
passenger rates in this state, together with
his stories, helped to kill the time until
the arrival Of Mr.. Bryan.

speech was mainly the same as those pre-
