This state will have nothing to do
with Carnegie's pension for retired
teachers. So the legislature decided.
Bryan actively backed the opposition
to this bill, supposedly on the ground
OF tainted money. The legislators and
Mr.. Bryan entirely overlooked the
aged professors side of the question,
which is painfully real. The pension
system has already given a brighter
tinge TO the old age prospects of col
lege professors. 1t is capable of great
extension. 1t is doing much good.
Has the Nebraska legislature or Mr..
Bryan any better plan to propose?

Edwin Markham, everywhere known
as the author of "The Man With the
Hoe" has lately purchased and gone
to live in a large old fashioned man
sion in Westerleigh, Staten island.
1t is the rare poet in these days who
can buy houses from the income pro-
duced by his pen. But Mr.. Markham
receives the highest prices paid to
any poet in this country for his
metrical wares. Mr.. Markham is now
fifty-siX years of age and until his
first famous poem THE Man With the
Hoe" commanded the attention of the
world, he was teacher and wrote
poetry only as side line. Mr.. Mark
ham receives from 5000 to $500 each
for his short poems. For his beauti-
full Peace over Africa" written at the
close of the Boer war in a single
night, the poet received $500.

A special herd of fifty sheep is kept

garments are manufactured. His

plices are embroidered with pearls
and the long capes literally CLEAN

Wayne Democrat; Towns In the
vicinity of Sioux City should do lit.
tie more trading in that disreputable
center of commerce, then perhaps the
people of that metropolis would not
make such strenuous efforts TO pro
tect alleged thieves and bank robbers,
who make periodical trips from the
burg on the big muddy to dynamite Il
bank for billion or so. If the
cracksmen who operated at Hadar are
in Sioux City, as seems probable, the
man or set of men in Sioux City who
put up barriers to their leaving that
city, ought to be sent to the peniten.
tiary. For weeks Pierce county has
been making desperate efforts to
bring the alleged Hadar suspects to
Nebraska for trial, but sharp lawyers
have protected the yegg men at every
turn of the road and It is unlikely they
will ever be gotten into this state for
prosecution. Sioux City well deserves
all the mysterious murders" and hold
ups that place is notorious for, only it
would be very agreeable to learn that
some of her bad actors" of the legal
fraternity were sand-bagged or thrown
in the river.

Germany evidently means to COM
bine with the greatest army in the
world, navy equalling if not sur.
passing that of England. The German
shipyards are crowded to the limit in
turning out Dreadnoughts. At the
present time the finances of the Ger
man empire are in a strained condi-
tion but her ministers express their
confidence in an increase of wealth
during the next decade which will
equal that of the past four decades.
Relying upon that assurance, they are
proceeding to strenuously carry out
the program of German aggrandize-
ment.

DR.. w. F. Grenfell, who is devoting
his life to work among the poor fisher
men of Labrador, is making a tour in
this country and great interest is be-
ing expressed in his work. Lord
Strathcona, who has been a resident
of Labrador for many years, describes
DR.. Grenfell as the most useful man
on the North American continent to-
day. However that may be, he has
rescued the Labrador fishermen from
misery, destitution and ignorance and
made them contented, thrifty people
with schools and churches and a
chance to live like human beings. He
has been much more than a medical
missionary. He has built hospitals,
orphanages, sawmills and workshops,
stores, schools and churches. He
cruises the coast in a hospital ship.
He holds services every Sunday, acts
as a magistrate, where there is none,
baptising, marrying and burying where
no minister ever goes. During the
summer he cruises 1000 miles reliev-
ing the sick and distressed at every
point. In the winter he travels 1000
miles over a frozen wilderness with
snow shoes and dog sleds curing with
out poy and laboring without stint Is
it any wonder that the people for
wnom he labors well nigh worship
him.

Lloyd's, the English insurance under
writers of London, are ready to insure
you against any contingency providing
you are willing to pay the premium.
You can insure your dog against being
stolen, your gun against blowing up,
your children against having measles
or your apple crop against frost. 1t
is not uncommon for a man to insure
against his wife having twins, and it is
reported that a murderer for whom the
police and press were searching walked
into Lloyds and insured himself
against being hanged. Such a busi-
mess must be rather exciting.
