COMMITTEE
MEETING AT DENVER.

| Denver, Colo, June 27.-Two inn
| portant meetings were on the pro-
gram today for the subcommittee OF
the Democratic National Committee.
The first session was held early in
the day, and only matters of routine
| in connection with the convention
were taken up.
The members of the committee Wis
| tied the auditorium and discussed de-
tails in connection with handling the
crowds. The distribution of tickets
promised to develop into a serious
problem, as there is a tremendous de-
mand, and every mail adds to the
pressure.
All members of the subcommittee
with the exception of McGraw of
West Virginia and Howell of Geor-
gia were present at the meetings to-
day Both of these were represented
by proxy. The participants in the
two conferences were: Chairman Tag
gart, Secretary Woodson; Roger Sui
livan. of Illinois; r. M. Johnson, of
Texas; James c. Dahlman. of Nebras-
ka; Norman C. Mack, of New York,
and John C. Osborne, of Wyoming.
The chief matter slated for co1sid-
Grafton at the afternoon meeting was
the selection of officers for the con-
vention. No preliminary conferences
have been held on this subject, but
the gossip early today concerned for
70, oh fbn of
Theodore Bell of California, H. D.
Clayton of Alabama, Governor Folk
of Missouri, and Judson Harmon of
Ohio. Friends of Bell outside the COM
mittee seemed confident that he will
be named, but the others also have
strong backing.
Such Johnson men as are here pro-
fess to be greatly cheered by reports
which they have received from the
East that Mr.. Bryan cannot be nam
laugh at the assertion and say that
all the opposition to Bryan will not
total 125 votes.
Mayor James c. Dahlman, of Oma-
ha, arrived this morning, after a re-
cent conference with Mr.. Bryan at
Lincoln. 1t was reported that Dahl
man brought the platform, but this
he denied. 81 discussed the platform
with Mr.. Bryan" he said, but did
not bring it with me. 1 believe tle
public generally already has a fair
mprehension of what it's provisions
will be- When asked concerning the
probable selections for temporary and
permanent chairman, Mr.. Dahlman
said he could not tell just wlat the
committee will do, as no slate has
been arranged.

down again on the bank. He laid his
rife in the grass, folded his arms as II
he were hugging himself, and smiled
grimly. Then he fastened his eyes
with great hunger Of longing on the
lessening distance between the two
teams.
All at once a face rose before him
her face-tender with happy love, wist-
full with longing. He saw her, in
her white dress, waiting for this man
to whom she had given her heart
sitting there on the little vine-covered
porch, with her wrap over her knees,
and one little pink flower pinned to
her dress.
Then he snatched his rifle out Of
the grass, raised the sight to the last
notch, and knelt in the white road,
with elbow on knee and fore-stock
gripped firmly in his left hand. His
nerves were as steady as threads of
steel. What he was going to do was
for her sake!
Puff-a little jet of smoke out of the
rifle-barrel, away up there on the
shimmering hill. A brief space of

time, in which bird could scarcely
have drawn breath-and then flying
horses, wagon, black tarpaulin, all van
ished together, as If at the wave of a
magician's wand. A dense cloud Of
smoke, dust, earth and powdered frag-
ments Of all things sprang up against
the blue Of heaven, and chasm, as if
to the very bowels of the earth,
yawned In the white road. A bullet
had crashed through the cases Of dy-
Mantle!
The young rifieman shaded his eyes,
until he saw his rival emerge from his
overturned buggy, beyond the wreck,
and kneel on the neck of his strug-
Cling horse, while he hurriedly un-
buckled the harness. Then he who had
fired that wonderful shot for his loves
sake turned swiftly again into the
woods; and the sun shone down on
the white road, and the birds lifted up
once more their everyday songs, as if
nothing had happened.

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.
Their UnCeasing Work Keeps Us
Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the blood.
They work night and day. When
healthy they remove about 500 grains
OF impure matter daily, when un-
healthy some part Of this impure mat
ter is left in the blood. This brings
on many diseases and symptoms
pain in the back, headache, nervous
ness, hot dry skin, rheumatism, gout,
gravel, disorders of the eyesight and
hearing, dizziness, irregular heart,
debility, drowsiness, dropsy, deposits
in the urine, etc. But if you keep the
filters right you will have no trouble
with your kidneys.

rheumatism for the last 25 years and

struck a match and lighted the pa
per, which was soon reduced to
ashes. The congregation arose and
sang Praise God from whom all
blessings flow" repeating it then in
their joy over being freed from debt.
The trustees then formally presented
the church, and DR.. Long read the
formal dedication service, following
lit with several prayers as laid down
in the discipline. He then pro-
nounced the benediction and the con-
gregation dispersed.

evening, the church being crowded

RISE OF JOHN BURNS,
An Engineers Apprentice Who En-
tered the British Parliament.

Some people are laboring under the
belief that England is less democratic
than this republic, says the Brooklyn
Eagle. They should study the rise Of
John Burns, now president of the local
government board. Thirty-five years
ago he was an engineers apprentice at
two dollars week. This position in
England is far more menial than in
this county, because a lad has little
hope of rising to an earning point be-
yond six or eight shillings day. But
John Burns kept going.
He acquired an education by self
study because the common school sys-
tenn, as we understand the words, does
not exist in Great Britain. He devel-
oped the ability to talk upon his feet.
He stood for parliament, although he
hadn't shilling besides his earnings
as an expert workman.
Members Of the British parliament
are not paid anything for their serv-
ices. Friends came to Burns assist
ance and he took his seat, with nearly
40 other representatives, of labor. To-
day he is a member of the govern
ment and as privy councillor may, If
he chooses, draw $4,000 a year for
the rest of his life, whether in or out
Of Office
OF course, it is not considered reg
ular to take the salary when one 10
out of Office; but some cases of the
kind are well remembered. That Ben
Butler of the British parliament, Ben
jamin Disraei, always drew the
money. He needed it, he asserted.
But what started to say is that
workman has as great chance In
England as here If he makes some
thing of himself beyond drudge.
Such successes are more exceptional
there than here, If reference be had to
the American-born workman, because
the foreign-born laborer does as little
work as he can here or elsewhere.
His Incidence is infectious and many
formerly earnest toilers have become
imbued with the continental belief in
shirking duty.
Had Burns felt thus he would still
be mechanic and carrying a dinner
pail.

Marriage Lottery In India.

Every year in the Rumai country, in
India, marriage lottery is held, gen.
orally in October. The naraes Of all
the marriagable girls and Of the young
men who are tired of bachelor life
are written on slips of paper and
thrown into separate earthern pots.
One OF each kind is drawn out at one
time by local wise man. The youth
whose name is drawn obtains a letter
OF introduction to the young woman
whose name accompanies his, and
then all that remains for him to do is
to start courtship with all the ardor OF
which he is capable.

CHURCH IS DEDICATED
From page /

Anarchists, he said, preach against
faith. They killed VIM. Mckinley,
but they forgot that Theodore Roose-
welt would succeed him. The whole
theory of life, he said, is based upon
faith. He would paint faith garbed
in work day attire.
The speaker then enumerated some
things in which we should have faith.
First, in others. He did not believe
the theory, often voiced by business
men, that one should treat man
as thief until he had proved himself
an honest man. The crying need of
today, said the speaker, is not SO
much theory as practice. Men should
have faith in each other. A man is
rich as in proportion to the friends
he has; the poorest man living, even
though he be millionaire, is the
man who has no friends.
Faith in the bible was emphasized
Not one fundamental doctrine of
this great book has been overthrown
bv the assaults upon it. "This bible,
which the critics had proclaimed dead
is the livest thing on the earth to-
day." exclaimed the speaker. Read
it, teach it, act it. If the farmer
would spend as much time teaching
his children the truths of the bible
as he devotes to the developing of
blooded colt, the world would be
better off today"
Judge Faith by her children, y
was the speakers exhortation. He
gave several good illustrations on this
point, and averred that there was new
er a time that there was so much
heroic heroism as there is today.
Don't eliminate God from the little
things of life, he advised.
In conclusion, DR.. Long told a
vivid story of the Spanish war which
illustrated his point.
A hymn was then sung and DR.. Long
that the debt on the church
had been entirely cleared off and it
would not be necessary to take up a
special collection to help out. This
he said, was something unusual in
dedications and he congratulated the
church upon doing this work so thor
oughly. There was some money need
ed, he added, for current expenses,
and a collection was then taken for
that purpose.
Then followed the annihilation of
the mortgage The trustees, lined up
in front of the organ facing the
audience. In front Of them stood the
pastor and in front of him in turn
stood Misses Florence Buck and Leila
Peart, holding a tray. e. Buck, Of
the trustees, then handed the mort
