BRYAN ADDRESSES ELKS
Speaks Of Assurance of Immortality
Beyond Grave.

Lincoln, Dec. 3.-William Jennings
Bryan addressed the local lodge OF
Elks at their sacred session, held in
memory of departed members. Mr..
Bryan is a member Of the lodge and
In addressing fellow members, spoke
OF the great work done in the social
life of today by the fraternities.
Mr.. Bryan said that all nature pro-
claims Immortality. Man Is boast
full" he said, and yet just as he mag
ines himself almost om%nipotent. just
as he reaches out to seize the crown,
death touches him, or n he loves,
and then he feels how helpless he is.
Death turns our thoughts toward i'm.
mortality; heaven seems so
real to us as when it becomes the
abode OF some one whom we have
known and loved. And then, when
these treasures from our hearts are
there, we can easily believe that no
heart warmed into a glow by the fire
OF brotherly love will ever suffer an
eternal chill, that no spiritual flame
that grows brighter with the years,
will ever be eXtinguished never to
shine again."

section received much benefit.
AS indicating the stupendous value
of agriculture the speaker cited that
in the last government year book one
item of the nations wealth was $780,
00O. 900 worth of dairy products. No
farm crop brings this sum except
corn. The meat industry does not.
The dairy product cited combined with
the value of dairy cows, 1882, 000, 900,
reaches a total of 81 147O OO, 900. more
than all the meat cattle of the land
are worth together with hogs and
sheep.
"The most important problem in ag-
riculture is, and always has been,
conserving and increasing soil fertil-
ity," said Or. Andrews. "By good
farming you perform the miracle of
eating your cake and keeping it, too"
He declared that scientific methods
were making agriculture considerably

INSURANCE POLICIES CANCELLED
SLIGHT Chances Of Convicting Tobacco
Trust Busters Who Used Torch.

Princeton, KY, Dec. All insurance
policies covering buildings owned or
controlled by the tobacco trust in
western Kentucky were cancelled as
a result of the burning of W stem
meries by a mob which entered Prince
ton last Friday night. The excitement
caused by the mob's action is still in
tense, interest being heightened by the
inquiry begun by Fire Marshal Ayres.
Several witnesses were examined,
among them being prominent citizens.
All had encountered members OF the
mob, but with one exception they tes-
tilted that they failed to recognize any
of the raiders. The fact that one wit
ness who had previously declared he
recognized members of the mob. tes-
tilted to the contrary, is taken as an
indication that the chances of secur-
ing convictions are slight.
