Midnight Mass was held at the Cath olic church Christmas Eve, Rev. Father Gabriel officiating. Father Gabriel preached a very impressive sermon, ex- plaining the meaning of the Christmas festival, and urging people to celebrate in a more christian-like manner this great day instead of adhering too much to the prevalent idea of presents and a time for eating and celebrating. The music rendered by the choir was thor oughly enjoyed by all. The soloists, Mesdames Blain, Richards and Chris toe, Misses Pickle and Griffin and MT. Katanook, deserve special men tion, and assisted by a chorus of Mesdames Kimmerling and Hahn, Misses Coggins and Tremontine, with Mrs. Humes pre- siding at the organ, rendered the mass in highly commendable manner. Mir. Katanook's solo, "The New Born King" was especially pleasing. His singing is worthy of high commendation, as he possesses a rich bass voice and renders his music in an expressive manner.

Bell is Visiting Bryan.

Lincoln, Neb, July 6.-Theodore
Bell. of California, arrived late this
morning after precariOus trip
through the high water.
Shortly before noon telephone COM
munication was restored with Lincoln.
Bell called Bryan up and Immediately
thereafter started for Fairview. There
is some apprehension that Bell may
not be able to reach Denver in time
to open the convention tomorrow
noon. Telephone reports received at
Fairview are to the effect that not a
road out of Lincoln at present is able
To dispatch trains.
Nearly all Lincoln is under water
today as the result Of the storm last
night which lasted for nine hours and
assumed proportions of a cloudburst
The flood not only caused immense
loss to property owners and railroads,
but was attended by loss Of life. the
extent Of which Is not definitely
known. At least one person. a milk
man, named William Nelson. is known
to have drowned. and a woman and
three children living in the bottoms
are missing. An area OF twenty-five
square miles is covered with water
from two TO fifteen feet deep.
As a result OF last nights storm the
river rose three feet above maximum
records OF 1892. The foundation Of
the Hughes block was undermined by
the rain and the building toppled into
the Antelope. Twenty persons mar
rowly escaped injury.
At 1880 Bryan was assured the
Missouri Pacific expected to dispatch
a train to Omaha at 2:30 and II not
stalled it Will reach Omaha in time
for Bell to catch the regular Union
Pacific train to Denver over tine main

Sailing Nearly Every
sea.

San Francisco, July 6.-Lying in
the harbor with all preparations for
long voyage completed and awaiting
only the command to up anchor and
sail for Honolulu, the first stopping
place, the Atlantic battleship fleet
stretches out for more than a mile
of trim fighters. Officers and men are
anxious to be off, and the fleet Will
carry a full quota of competent sail
ors.
Judging from the nature of supplies
loaded on some of the war ships, the
errand of the fleet in the Orient will
be more of a "frolic" than fight"
Scow loads of chewing and smoking
TOBACCO, cigarettes and other varis-
ties of refreshments were taken
aboard and slowed away snugly in the
holds of the big vessels. Other kinds
of ammunition are safely hidden
away in the magazines, and other
kinds OF fuel fill the bunkers. But 1t
is doubtful If Uncle Sans fighting
men Will find as much use for them
as for these enormous consignments

The fleet will reach Honolulu on
July 16, remain a week and then pro-
ceed to- the antipodes. Elaborate
preparations for its entertainment
have been made at Auckland, Sydney
and Melbourne. The fleet will reach
Manila after a visit to japanese ports
about October /. Before returning to
Hampton Roads, the latter part of
February, fourteen months after start
ing from the Atlantic, the fleet will
have sailed nearly all the seas on the
globe and completed the most re-
markable cruise in naval history.
The fleet is in command of Rear
Admiral c. S. Sperry, the third COM
mander since the fleet left Hampton
Roads. Added to the officers are six
ty midshipmen late graduates from
Annapolis. who arrived a few days ago
and who have been assigned to duty
on the various vessels.

Suit Filed BY johnson Alleges that
Accused Forgcr Obtained Money
Under False Pretcnses,

Another complaint was filed against
James G. Manning, the alleged forger,
Saturday. The last complaint was
made by Mark Johnson, of the Whit
son Music Company, who accuses
Manning with securing $39.35 from
him through false pretenses. The
hearing was set for this morning be-
fore Judge W. w. McClelland, but
postponed at the request of Manning.
who said that he would like to have
time to summon witnesses. 1t is un-
derstood that Manning will plead not
guilty to the complaint, ana maintain
that Johnson loaned him the money.
Johnson said that he met Manning in
Arizona, and that he secured the
money by misrepresenting his finan-
cial condition.
