tee, called for Monday morning, was
again postponed on account OF the
illness of Pelayo Garcia, one of the
conspiracy prisoners. who had been

ponds on the attitude of the commit
tee at the first conference.
Heavy rains are prevailing and the
insurgents are inclined to seek the
benefit Of the armistice during the
continuance Of the peace negotiations.
Heretofore, there was merely a verbal
agreement without any definite terms,

A Warning to Democrats.

~ SFe "hs8 ~ sSuteSt oeos
Just as wss expected, the morning
organ OF Republicsnlsm in st. Louis
made desperate endeavor yesterday
to use the Brsyn ovation Sc means
OF iormenting Democrat dissent. Il
was impossible TO belittle the extra
ordinary reception given the great
Nebrasksn, so all the resources Of
mendacity were exhausted to foster
the fiction that there was q syste-
matte attempt to snub the friends OF
Governor Folk.
The story OF the Folk sDubbing Is
a pure invention, just as are the de-
tails put forward to support the
policy. Describing those who were
on the speakers platform In the Co.
liseum, our organ Of misrepresenta-
ton said: $50 we'll had the old
guard arranged things that not q
Folk mem was to be seen from the
audience" This looks like q plaus-
lble case, but the fact Is that the Or
der In which the people were seated
upon the platform was in no respect
a matter OF prearrangement. Only
four seats were reserved and all the
other seats were open to the first
who came. The early corners got the
front seats II they wanted them, and
hose who had rear seats took them
because they preferred them, or be-
cause they came too late to get seats
In front.
This Misrepresentation Is In line
with the persistent misstatements
concerning the attitude Of Governor
Folk to the Bryan reception and to
State campaign inst about begin
ming. 1t is no more true that Gov.
ernor Folk is not going to earnestly
and heartily support the Democratic
! ticket than It was that he stayed
away from the Bryan reception be-
cause he and his friends had been
snubbed. As a matter OF strict fact,
both OF these fictions are absolutely
without foundation.
Governor Folk will do bis part In
q mple time to secure a Democratic
victory in Missouri next November.
W hen he appears among the speak
ers at the Democratic meetings, as
he will appear In October next, the
inventors Of these political canards
will have to strain their ingenuity
airesh to find some new invention to
serve In creating dissention among
Democratic voters.
1t Is time for the Democrats Of Mis-
souri, to awaken to recognition OF
the insidious conspiracy the Repub-
lican newspapers and Republican
lea ders OF the state are endeavoring
to carry to successful conclusion.
There lie but one chance Of Republi-
can success, and that chance lies In
q renewal OF the Democratic apathy
that helped the Republicans two
years ago. To create this apathy
they are deliberately scheming to
produce discomfort and dissension
by iabrications put out to mislead
and deceive Democrats.
There is but one course for sensi-
BILE Democrats to pursue. Let them
hut their eyes and ears to the false
hoods circulated by their political
opponents. Let them heed only
those things they learn from Demo
Gratis who can be trusted. If there is
actual dissension and disagreement,
other than the ordinary clashing
ambitions OF individuals which il
common to all parties, and will last
as long as partisan politics lasts
| they will learn Of it quick enough
from the mouths Of Democratic
; sp eakers and through the columnt
OF the Dem ocratic press-St. Loui'
Republic.

4 CASE FOR CHARITIES BOARD.
Bed Covering Consisted of an Old
 Piece of Carpet.

One of the local physicians told a sad tale of woe in the ofice of the department of charities Saturday af- ternoon. He had been called to at tend a woman in house on Bene- dict street and said that during all his experience he never happened on such a case of poverty before. There were several holes in the ceiling and the only bed covering the woman had was an old piece of carpet. In the interest of humanity he believed the case should be taken hold of right away. Superintendent Morris gave the matter prompt attention.
 The infant child of the woman died a day or so after being born and was buried to-day. This will remind many of the remark heard so fre- quently here and there the past week or two that the present March is severe, much more so than usual, although some of the weather ob- servers say this is not SO. In. any case, it would seem that while some are too ready to rush to the authori- ties for aid, great many are trifle bashful about going there and as a consequence many suffer great hard ships before the board of charities hear anything about them.

SOME VERY. QUICK THINGS
Among Them the Thoughts of the Dozing Dreamer Is the Head
 ''Skidooer."

A flash of light is not sluggish, sound travels rapidly, a bullet is no msssen- ger boy, and an automobile which shoots mile in 2S seconds is moving along, certainly. When 1t comes to getting over the ground in real hur- ry, however, to devouring distances in dead earnest, says the Providence Jour nal, the dreamer marches proudly at the head of the procession. He makes the latest thing in the line of 150- horse power racing cars look like hay carts in mud bank. 4 man sits il his chair after dinner and dozes; he awakes with start and discovers, to his surprise, that he lost consciousness for exactly three minutes by the clock. Yet in those three minutes he jour neyed from New York to Port Said, transferred himself to St. Petersburg loitered in Paris and London ani sailed up the Nile. What Is of greater importance in this connection, he jour neyed leisurely, almost indolently; he stopped at various points of interest and examined them thoroughly; he met with annoying and amusing exper- fences on steamships and trains; he talked with acquaintances whom he encountered in foreign, lands. and he told some of them precisely what he thought of them-there was genuine pleasure in that. A dreamer can put thousands and thousands of miles be- hind him in the short space of three minutes and lazily enjoy himself in his wandering. By comparison, the chauf- feur, with his life in his hands, is 2 slow coach; and he must attend strict ly to business; he can engage in n, conversation or sightseeing.
 The human mind is wonderful ve. hicle, Some people in spectacles have analysed 1t and think that they know what it'is and what 1t can do. Bdti they do not know and they never will know.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1906-03-26
THE MAD MONTH OF MARCH Called the ''Thracian of the Twelve" :" : Because of Its Clustering
 Aspect.

Mars was not a favorite among the classic Greeks, nor is his name-month a great favorite among the Gothic moderns. The god of war was bar barian intruder in the Olympian circle. There was something Thracian, and by that token crude and unworthy, in his manner. He was more of blusterer than a fighter, and Homer narrates with evident relish how Pallas Athene tumbled him over in combat, his vas. bulk covering several acres. Of wild aspect. untutored ways and indifferent wits, he had little to recommend hin, but his immortal origin.
 Such also, says the New York Mail, is the month that has taken the wa- gods name. One poet notes its ugly looks and threats" "A half-wild crea- ture cast from natures lap" another calls 1t. The proverb mad as March hare" says the same thing with less reticence. English people call the month March manyweathers," and thereby intimate their doubt of it's capacity for sustained purpose. It is the Thracian of the 12, as September is the Tyrian. There is something clustering and barren in it's aspect, as there is in what people call "a good war" The winds that blow from one end of it to the other are not "the winds of God" A peck of March dust may be worth kings ransom, as a wise saw has it, but from the average human it gets less grateful guerdon. Beware the fies of March" is good wisdom for our common humanity.
