States were not providing proper
common school education for the
children Of that section, established
the Peabody Normal College for tea
chers in Nashville, Tenn.
In the distribution Of the fund it
was intended to give $l,O0O,000 out
right to this college and TO apportion
the balance Of the fund among such
other educational institutions as the
trustees should name.
The reason given for not making
the distribution to-day, it was said,
that the Peabody Normal College for
teachers has not complied with con
ditions stipulated by the trustees
when the college was founded.
The agreement was that to entitle
the Peabody College to 100000
when the distribution was made APP
preparations aggregating $750,O00
must first be made for the benefit Of
the college by the City Of Nashville,
Davidson County and the state Of
Tennessee.

Why Colds Are Dangerous.

Because you have contracted ordi-
nary colds and recovered from them
without treatment Of any kind, do
not for a moment irnagbie that colds
are not dangerous. Everyone knows
that pneumonia and chronic catarrh
have their origin in a common cold.
Consumption is not caused by cold
but the cold prepares the system for
the reception and development Of
the germs that would not otherwise
have found lodgment II is the same
with all infectious diseases. Diph-
liberia, scarlet fever, measles and
whooping cough are much more like
" to be contracted when the child
has a cold. You will see from this
that more real danger turks in cold
than in any other Of the common all
ments. The easiest and quickest way
to cure cold is to take Chamber
lain's Cough Reemdy. The many re-
markable cures effected BY this prep
aration have made it staple article
Of trade over a large part Of the
world. For sale by Frank Hart and
leading druggists.

MR.. BRYAN STAND UPi

There are no doubt some Gold
Democrats who would Be willing 10
return to their old party if they be-
lieved that the party had abandoned
the positions which it took under Mr.,
Bryan in 1896 and 1900. Mr., Bryan
has thus far failed to indicate a radi-
cal change Of heart on these subjects,
but If lie would address himself to
the following list Of questions in a
manner satisfactory to the believers
In the gold standard and the existing
financial structure, he might reassure
many who are inow doubling. Is Mr..
Bryan willing to answer candidly the
following questions?
Do you believe that the gold STAN
dard, as YOU declared in 1896, is "a
conspiracy against the human race?
/ Would you oppose again, as you did
III the Democratic National Conven-
tion Of 1904, the declaration that the
monetary problem had been removed
from the realm Of practical politics
by the great production Of gold in
recent yearsF
Do you still believe, as declared by
the Democratic National platform Of
1900, that national bank notes should
heretired as fast as government pa
per Or silver certificates can be sub
stituted for them?
Was the exclusion of gold certih-
Gates from the above resolution be-
cause your real aim was to bring this
country to debaseed silver standard
and not to establish honest bimetal-
lism, even if attainable?
Are you still opposed as declared
in the Democratic National platform
Of 1896, to ''the issue Of interest-bear-
ing bonds Of the United States in time
Of peace even if necessary under the
provisions Of the Gold Standard Law
to sustain the public credit?
Would you feel justified in authori-
zing the issue Of emergency notes un-
der the Aldrich- Vreeland Law, if nee
necessary to move the crops, in
view Of the declaration made in the
Democratic National platform Of this
year, that I'm 50 far as the needs of
commerce require an emergency cur
rency should be issued and control
led BY the Federal Government?
II the latter provision Of your plat
form means that you favor the issue
Of more greenbacks, would you favor
making such greenbarks payable on
demand in gold, or in silver, or not
payable at all?
Can you give any good reasons, as
Democrat, why you should be sup
ported more cordially by the friends
Of Judge Parker in 1908 than he was
supported by your friends in 1904,
when the Democratic vote in the
State Of Nebraska fel from 1853 to
51,876?

agreement Of the Christian signator-
Iies to the Berlin Treaty in the mat
ter of affording the Christians Of the
Balkan peninsula protection from
tyranny and robbery at the hands Of
their Turkish rulers. She has restor-
ed peace, order and prosperity in
bosnia and Herzegovina, which she
has virtually governed and policed
for 20 years, although Bosnia and
Herzegovina are nominally depend
encies Of the Turkish crown, and
there il every reason why the two
provinces should be annexed to Aus
tria- Hungary. The Turk no longer
has any authority in those provinces,
has not had for a generation. The
arm Of Austria is supreme there, and
has wisely governed and protected
the land. Why should the Turk, who
AS 4 predatory invader from Asia, be
regarded as having any claim TO au-
thority over the Christian inhabitants
of Bosnia and Herzegovina simply
because Moslem hordes overran those
provinces nearly three centuries ago
and cruelty piundered and oppressed
them till Russia forever broke the
military power of the Osmanli in the
last Balkan war?

little brides. We must lie very still,
you know. 1t may be that the fairies
do not come out by daylight. But
we'll be ready for them If they do"
So they stretched themselves In the
mass of fallen autumn leaves that almost
hid their forms, and as they were be-
meath a cluster of dogwood bushes 1t
might have been possible for any one
to have come close upon them without
being aware Of their presence.
Hardly had they become settled when
the noise of rustling leaves Informed
them that some animal or person ap-
preached. They lay quite still, fearing to
move a muscle; but their little hearts
beat violently against their Sides For
your life don't move or speak," whispered
Maggie. slipping out a hand and laying
it on Tom to reassure him.
Then their ears caught voices. low and
muttering. In another minute a fierce
faced man, with unkept hair and rough
clothes, accompanied by a woman who
matched his own appearance. came so
close to the children that they could see
them plainly and overhear all they said.
The woman carried something in her
arms-a bundle wrapped closely In an
old shawl.
well, mere we drS loT tuc tuiIu tihC
since the hour set," said the man in a
gruff voice. ''What on earth can keep
Dick? Let's set here on this log and wait
a little while" And he dropped on
fallen tree trunk.
The woman sat down also, partly un-
wrapping the thing In her arms, and Tom
and Maggie saw that she carried small
baby. 'Oh. there's no use tryin' to fool
ourselves any longer" said the woman,
GROSSLY. "Either Dick has fallen into the
bands of detectives or he's being hound
ed and can't come here, as he had
planned There's no use our running any
more risk; 1 shan't carry this kid an
other foot. Ten to one we're surrounded
even now"
''What you turning coward-just as
the moneys In reach?" asked the man,
with rising anger. "Just like a woman,
anyway. You've gone and done the
worst part of the job-you stole the kid
and got away; now you've got scared Of
a sudden, and you'd quit just as the ram
SONS about to fall in our hands"
'Ransom!" and the woman sneered.
'sYou must be crazy to think the plan
has been successful when it's now three
hours after the time set for Dick to be
here with the kids father and the money.
No; people don't delay when their necks
are in danger. If Dick were free to come

from home. Why, just think I'VE might
have been kidnapped, too"
WED better be thinking about what
would have happened to this little chap"
dryly remarked Tom, pinching the laugh
ing baby's toes.
"And we'll all think of the poor mothers
and fathers joy when they receive the
news that their precious baby has been
rescued from the hands of those crimi-
nals," said dear grandma. Nov, we must
feed the little babe from the woods > for,
since there are no other fairies than Gal

And If we never find them will the
baby be ours for keepsT questioned Tom
eagerly, fondly stroking the baby's
chubby hand.
''Yes; but we'll try very hard to find
its papa and mamma" replied Maggie.
But, say, isn't it strange to think that
we came out here to play Babes in the
Wood and found one sure-enough baby
lying in the leaves2 Oh, you dear little
pink thing!' And Maggie kissed ever SO
tenderly the pretty cheeks Of their new
found treasure. But come-let's hurry
away with it, she said suddenly. "S'pose
those terrible people should return for

were talking about should come" sug-
gested Tom, interrupting. ''Yes, let's get
