YULETIDE FAIRY TALES s .Sn n n0ns
A FLOOD, A TRAMP AND A FAIRY
1t had rained and rained and
FATHER AND MOTHER AND GRANDPAP AND

1t had ra1ned and ralned and
rained.
For ten days this particular
part of Nebraska had been soaked
and soaked by water which fell
out of the sky.
The Kaw river was twice its
normal size, and all the rivers and
brooks and creeks which empty
into the Kaw were roaring and
spluttering and making the Kaw
more and more dangerous.
The railroads had stopped try
ing to run trains. Many bridges
were gone, and many more were
weak and twisted out OF, shape.
But the rains could not stop
the Tramp. On and on he came,
searching for work, THE FIRST
TINE IN THREE YEARS.
Why this fine resolution? He
had begun to think of his wife
and baby, that's why.
Now he was nearing the town of
Fairburg, and about one mile west
of the depot and railroad yards
(where he expected to find work,
for he had once been a railroad
mani he came upon a bridge over
which the water was pouring.
And the Tramp -stopped-and
PRAYED.
Could it be, he asked God, that
just at lifetime when he was about
to try to become a man once again,
the storm would stop him?
AS the big, ragged man stood
near the bridge, which it did not
seem he could possibly cross, a
little child suddenly appeared be-
fore him and looked into his eyes.
OF course, the Tramp was sur
prised. For something like three
years all children had run away
when he came near them.
What wouldst thou, big MANI"
asked the child.
So the Tramp plucked up his
oozing courage and told his story
HOW HE WANTED TO
GO TO WORK.
Gleefully did the little fairy
child laugh up into his bearded
face.
Come with me-" the child
said, and ran nimbly up the great
steel framework from which the
bridge hung, and which the water
had not yet reached.
So the Tramp followed, and
soon, with the child leading, her
hair flying and drenched by the
rain. her clothes clinging to her
tiny form, the two of them were
on the very topmost steel girder.
Yet the Tramp-now become a
man-could not bear to see the
child thus exposed to cold rain and
danger; and so he picked her up
in his arms and wrapped her close
in his coat. And they crossed the
mad stream in safety. But when
they reached the other side the
child disappeared all in a minute,
right out of his arms.
Next day teh superintendent of
the railroad was glad to hire a
man who looked SO big and
strong. And the tramp is not SO

TRY TO REOPEN
 AN OLD FAILURE
Chicago Broker Seeks to Resume In- yestigatiOn of the Failure of the Fi' delity National Bank Collapse
 g Years Ago.

Washington, Aug. 31-Another ef- fort to revive investigation of the Fidelity National Bank failure in Cin- cinnati twenty-three years ago is about to be made by Chicago men headed by A. w. Green, broker.
 The comptroller of the currency wound up the banks affairs about two years ago, when the last dividend was allowed. The Fidelity failure, the most gigantic of it's time, was re- lated to a speculation in Chicago wheat in which the bank was ruined and it's vice president, E. L. Harper, was sentenced to ten years in pen itentiary. The Chicago brokerage house of Irwin, Green & Co.,, of which A. w. Green was then mem- Der, had been handling Harper's s trades. Just before the bank closed on June 27, 1887, banks all over the country received mysterious circulars advising the withdrawal of all funds from the Fidelity A run followed, and after $600,00O of drafts had been protested in New York national bank examiner took charge. When the bank closed a corner in wheat, which Harper was credited with heading, was broken.
 The Chicago men who wanted in vestigation claimed to have informa- tion that the circulars were put out by a rival brokerage house which made great profits in the break oi the market.
 These Chicago men are looking into the Federal law to see if they can start a prosecution if they have the evidence. Their cases may be pre- sented to the governor after they have finished their investigations.

REVISE TARIFF
 AS IT IS NEEDED
That is the Plan Proposed by Presi- dent Taft, and it Comes as No Sur prise to Those Who Have Kept in
 Touch With Him.

Washington, Aug 3I.-President 1aft's stand for a revision of the tariff schedule by schedule when needed and his recent declaration ill his letter to Chairman Mckinley of the Republican campaign committee caused no surprise to those who knew of the conferences which the president had had with Secretary Mac Veagh during the summer at Beverly
 Those who have been close to the situation do not attempt to say that the secretary of the treasury has molded the opinion of the president, but they point to Secretary Mac Veagh's Boston speech last December in which he declared the Payne law to be step in the right direction and predicted that it opened the way to a decided improvement.
 Rumors have appeared from time to time during the last few months that Secretary MacVeagh was one ot the men who was slated to go out of the cabinet in the near future. Those who have known the relations be- tween the president and his secretary take MT. Taft's declaration on the subject of tariff revision as another indication that MT. MacVeagh is still regarded by the president as useful member of his cabinet.

WARD AND BRIDE
 WE'D AGAIN Second Ceremony Occurred August 20 With Rela-
 tives Present. NOT ON WAY EUROPE Little Rock Couple Spending Honey moon in Wisconsin and Will
 Return Soon.
NOT ON WAY EUROPE

Ward and, Mrs. Ruth Young Ward,
 his bride of month, both of this
 city, were married the second time
 at Ludington, Mich, August 20, in the presence of twenty of the closest
 relatives of the bride.
 Mrs. Ward, sister of Rogers Young, proprietor of the Hotel Main; sister of Mrs. Shelby England, sister
 of Mrs. Mark Valentine, and niece of l Charles N. Alexander of this county,
 one of the best known young ladies
 of this city, is not aboard trans Atlantic steamer en route to Europe,
 and Mr. Ward is not in close pursuit aboard another fast steamer. Mrs. Ward was not hurried from Luding- ton, Mich, to Detroit or elsewhere to prevent her young husband from finding her" Mrs. Ward was not hurried to New York, where she took
 steamer for Europe in company
 with relatives just the day before MT.
 Ward appeared there, and there has
 not been most strenuous objections
 to the marriage of Miss Ruth Young to Mr. Ward by relatives of the Young lady,
 In fact, friends of the young cou- pie today are exercised materially to
 find any grain of truth in the highly sensational report of the alleged has ty departure of Mrs. Ward for Eu
 rope and the equallyy dramatic chase
 of the steamer across the Atlantic by the husband aboard another steamer.
 The RumOrs Start
 Several days ago rumors reached
 Little Rock to the effect that follow ing the marriage of the couple in an automobile in the City Park on July 20, at, which Justice of the Peace
 Douglas Heard, friend of the groom, officiated, Mrs. Ward, went to Lud- ington, with her sister, Mrs. England,
 and that when the announcement of the wedding came out Mr. Ward
 thought to join his bride in the
 north, and failing to locate her start ed in search for her.
 As a matter of fact, on the day following the announcement in this city MT. Ward wired his bride at Lud-
 ington and in return received mes sage to the effect that Mrs. Ward was not in Ludington. Accompanied by three friends-Robert Beal, Thomas Doyle and Robert Doyle-Mr Ward started to Ludington not in search Of his bride, but merely to join her wherever she might be. En route Robert Doyle left the party while the other two continued to Ludington. Arriving in the Michigan city Mr. Ward ascertained that his bride was at that time visiting other relatives at Detroit and he proceeded to that city. He had no difficulty in locat- ing her, there being no effort to pre- vent them meeting, and accompanied by others the couple returned to Lud ington, where on Saturday, August 20 just ten days ago, Mir. and Mrs. Ward were remarried in the presence of about twenty relatives and close friends, this time by minister of the gospel. This action was taken at the request of close personal friends of Mrs. Ward and the young couple agreed, conceding this point for the sake of harmony among the repre- of the two families.

Brady, Republican, Seems to Have
 Been Nominated for Governor
 Boise, Idaho, Aug. Manifestations this morning are that Brady (Repun- lican), was nominated for governor by about 2,500 majority at yesterday s primaries. The race for congress is so close between Hamar and French, Republicans, that no accurate state ment is possible at this. time. It has developed that in this many Demo- crats voted for O'Neill (Republicans) for governor, and the plan was car ried out over the state, thus cutting down Brady's majority and possibly beating Hawley (Democrat) for gov ernor and nominating Rice.
