lieved there would be great political
advantage In having the notification

vored Chicago. Chicago, he said, was
a central point and the fact that rail-
road fares had TO be paid was a factor.
But there was no opposition to Mr..

in his home city. The date was set
for Aug ~. AS this is few weeks

Fairview, Lincoln, Neb, July 49,
The appointment of a subcommittee
Of II to meet at the Auditorium An
mex in Chicago on July rs to name a
chairman of the Democratic national
committee and the adoption Of a reso-
luton providing for making public
campaign contributions we're the prin-
cipal accomplishment of the national
committee meeting with William J.
Bryan and J. W. Kern at Fairview
Tuesday Democrats the country over
were called upon to form clubs inn
mediately to aid the campaign work,
II may be stated on authority that
had the whole committee acted Tues
day National Committeeman John H.
Atwood Of Leavenworth, Kas., in all
probability would have been made
campaign manager Sentiment In that
direction formed quite generally
among the committeeman during the
trip here from Denver Monday night.
Mr.. Atwood is a lawyer and business
man OF undoubted standing, and he
wants the position. He was not at
Fairview Tuesday. fact which is at
tributed to his belief that the chair
manship would be rendered him. That
action was not taken was due to Mr..
Bryan. The latter has no favorite
for the position nor was it antagonigm
to any one which formed the motive
Of his action Tuesday. Mr.. Bryan sug-
gested the appointment OF the sub
committee and declared that on 1t
there should be no man who was
either a candidate himself or had a
candidate for the campaign leadership.
Tom johnson Refuses.
The presence on the subcommittee
OF Mr. Ryan is an assurance that he
is no longer considered candidate.
Inquiry among members Of the sub
committee failed to elicit leanings to-
ward any candidate, but the fact that
the appointment has been left in their
hands is not believed to diminish the
chances of Mr.. Atwood. ID. ]. Campau
OF Michigan is no longer considered.
Tom l.. Johnson won't have it; Urey
Woodson would prefer to be not con-
sidered and Ollie James believes his
greatest usefulness Is on the stump.
This situation for the present at least
leaves the subcommittee with bu: one
candidate 10 consider. namely, Mr.. At
wood. The only whisper heard against
Mr. Atwood Tuesday was the fact that
his eminence in the legal profession
may have brought him into closer con-
neotion with corporations than would
be consistent in q campaign against
corporate greed and predatory
wealth" There IS ample time before
the Chicago meeting for this matter
to be Investigated by the sub-commit-
tee, II it should deem such action nee
esSary. ffS.

A CLOCK IN A BOTTLE.
The Way This Marvel of Mechanism
Was Constructed.

A German clockmaker living in the
little village of CONNER, near Magde
burg, built a clock in a bottle. The
maker, Fl. Rosin, secured a strong
movement with cylinder escapement
measuring forty-five millimeters and
began by saving the plate into halves.
The opening in the neck of the bottle
measures fifteen millimeters, and in
order to get these halves into the bot
tie he cut another segment off each of
the halves of the plate. He built sort
of tripod as resting place for the
movement. This tripod was assembled
after he had introduced it's parts into
the bottle separately. The tripod is SO
constructed that it cannot turn when
the movement Is being wound. The
four pieces of the plate were fastened
side by side by means of screws to
the platform attached to the tripod, a
long screwdriver and other tools espe-
cialiy constructed for the purpose hav-
ing been used for this operation. When
the plate was put together. the clock
maker proceeded to put all the parts
Of the movement in their original
places with the motion wheels for the
hands. A ring OF white metal was
placed around the neck Of the bottle,
and upon this ring was soldered a
round plate, thus closing the opening.
On this cover were fastened in an in
clined position the arms which serve
as a support for the dial.
The dial is made of a ground glass
plate. which has a diameter of twenty
centimeters. The black numbers on the
dial ar, ut skeleton fashion and ce-
mented to the glass. At night one can
fell the time by placing a light behind
the dial.-Technical World.

CIGARETTES THE
BOYS DOWNFALL
It Is Held That Roy Coombs Is
In Every Sense a Cigar

TO BE DEPRIVED OF SMOKES
JUDGE CONVERSE HAS ORDERED
THE SHERIFF NOT TO ALLOW
HIM TO SMOKE WHILE CON-
FINED IN COUNTY JAIL.

Excessive use of cigarettes is as
signed as the cause for the criminal
tendencies shown for the past two or
three years by Roy Coombs, the sew
enteen years old lad who was sentenc-
ed to over 100 days inprisonme by
Judge Converse, for assaulting his two
younger sisters.
Young Coombs, it is said is in every
sense of the term Cigarette fiend.
In the city court Saturday when
Coombs was arraigned before Judge
Converse on charge of assault and
battery, the court administered to MIN
"A severe lecture on the evils of cigar
cite smoking. but the lecture appar-
entity failed to make any impression
on the boy. Judge Converse asked
him If he would not promise to swear
off" smoking cigarettes while at the
county Jail, but Coombs refused to
take the oath. Judge Converse then
said ne would take steps to see that
he received no coffin nails while
confined at the institution.
The judge has informed Sheriff
Meredith OF the condition the excess
young Coombs to, and mas requested
the sheriff to see that the lad is forced

prisoner at the bastile
For some time Roy Coombs has
caused the police department consid-
cradle trouble" a police officer states.

when taken into custody would stoutly
deny his guilt 1t would be known
positively that Coombs was guilty. but
lack of proper evidence would prevent
making charges against him and it
would be necessary 10 give him Sc
we're lecture and then turn him loose.
Coombs finally got to believe he was
immune from arrest. The sentence
given him Saturday by Judge Con
verse and the order that he be depriv-
cd of cigarettes while in Jail will, be-

A Trunpeter's Couraae.

During French campaign in Africa
many brave deeds We're done, but none
Drawer perhaps than Trumpeter Escof-
fier's rescue of his captain. The Arabs
were pressing the cavalry Of Captain
De Colt, and everything was in con-
fusion, when De Colts horse was kill
ed under him and the capture of the
officer and the whole company seemed
inevitable. At that moment the trum-
peter of the company leaped from his
horse and gave it to De Colt. saying:
Take him. Your life is necessary
Mine is useless. You can rally the
men. 1t does not matter about my
neck" De Colt mounted the horse,
rallied the company and continued the
fight. Trumpeter Escofier was taken
prisoner, but the Arabs. who adore
courage, had witnessed the scene and.
approaching the nobility of the man.
treated him with generosity. His
trumpet was a source of great enter
tainment to his captors. who used of
ten to make him give the signals OF
the various military movements. One
day Escoffier gave the whole reper-
tory with great gusto, finishing up by
blowing the summons for a charge
with an extended flourish.
What was that?' asked the Arab
chief
"Ah," said Escofier. "you will hear
that soon. hope. That is the signal
for charge"

INDIANA PYTH|ANS

OBJECT OF THE NEW BRANCH is
TO CULTIVATE THE SOCIAL
SIDE OF LIFE-NOW 1856 TEM-
PIES IN THE COUNTRY.
FRIDAY Is THE DAY SET.

Letters have been received by local
Pythians. calling upon them to gather
IN indianapolis next Friday night for
the purpose of taking preliminary
steps toward reorganizing the dramat-
Ic order. knights of Khorrassan.
Especial interest attaches to the
move in the minds of those who are
taking the step, for the reason that
there is an understanding with the
powers that be in the order that if a
successful organization is effected in
indianapolis. no charter will be issued
for another lodge in Indiana, this
meaning that the Indianapolis organi-
cation would have members from all
parts of the state, the only lodge of
the kind now existing in Indiana being
at Muncie
The order stands in about the same
relation to the order of knights Of
pythias as does the Scottish Rite TO
Masonry. To Join the Dramatic Or
der Of knights of Khorrassan, man
must be a member of the Knights of
Pythias in good standing.
The ID. y. X. X. IS dramatic and So
cial organization to which only a Pyth-
ian In good standing can belong. It's
possibilities in this state are unlim-
tied. Its object is to cultivate the So
cial side of life and to present an OPP
portunity for those who enjoy sociabil-
jty to spend an evening or two each
month in association with kindred
spirits, where they may participate in
ceremonies entertaining and amusing.
IT also creates and broadens acquaint-
ance among Pythians, furnishing a
common ground upon which members
OF different lodges can meet and know
one another thus breaking those lines
of separation which often exist be-
tween the separate organizations.
There are now 1856 temples in the Unit
ed States, and all are in flourishing
condition.

Guyot. He was known to every inhab-
liant, and every urchin in the street
could point him out as a niggard in
his dealings and a wretch of the ut
most penury in his habits of life From
his boyhood this old man had lived in
the city of Marseilies and, although the
people treated him with scorn and
hatred. nothing would induce him TO
leave 1t. When he walked the street
he was followed by crowd Of hooting
boys who often threw stones and mud
at him. There was 10 one 10 speak a
Kind word in his favor. He was re-

Good wife's Comment.
Some amusing anecdotes of Ibsen
have been published by the Norwegian
writer John Paulsen, who was on in
innate terms with him for many
years. says the New York sun. One
of his stories he prefaces with the re-
mark that. however much the dram
atlst upheld the rights of women, he
by no means considered them superior
to men in any line-in fact, lie consid-
cred them Inferior in many spheres in
which tue world in general puts them
ahead. One of his maxims was:
NO woman could write a cookbook
and no woman can sew a button On
fast
He lived up to the latter part of his
dictum. When he detected a loose
button on any of his garments he re-
treated to his own den, locked himself
In and with elaborate preparations
sewed the button on.
He took as much pains with it as he
would with the final fair copy OF one
OF his plays. Then he r~"d to brag
about the performance, ST.. ing that he
wouldn't put trust in a button sewed
on by any woman, not even by his
wife.
His wife used TO laugh with a quiet
ly ironicai expression on these occs-
sions. She conflded to Paulsen that
she secretly reserved all the buttons
that the poet had sewed-sewed them
good and tight. as only woman can.

him so happy to think that he did It."
So, Pauisen remarks, there was
hidden lie in the life of the great apos-
tie of frankness and truth. One day
in Munich Ibsen asked Paulsen In the
most concerned way whether he pol
ished his own shoes in the morning.
With n feeling of indescribable gull,
Paulsen confessed that he didn't.
But you ought to- Ibsen urged.
You will feel a different man IL You
do. No man should let another do for
him what he can do for himself

you will soon come to keeping your
