1t is but little more than one hum
bred years ago that India's pioneer
missionary sailed from England to en-
ter upon his life work in that country.
Discouraged by public sentiment in
that country, England, tie missionary
enterprise in India was slow in unfold
ing but the advent of missionaries in
that country marks the actual begin

The name of the first English mis-

SIX HORSES BURNED.
Fire Destroyed Beatrice Barn
and Contents.

Beatrice, Neb., May 15.-Fire
shortly after 8 a. m. today des-
troyed the barn owned by Jack
Hillyer on South Sixth street and
burned to death six horses be-
longing to Hlllyer. The flames
had spread through the barn and
were bursting from the doors and
windows before they were dis
covered and there was no posi-
bic chance to save the horses.
Hillyer bought, sold and traded
horses, and the animals burned
represented his stock on hand.
The contents of the barn was
owned by General L. W. Colby
and is probably a total loss. The
origin of the fire is unknown.
The entire fire department was
out to prevent the spread
of the flames to the business
part of the city.

little over five per cent. When
the vote is analysed it will be
seen that Roosevelt has over
fifty per cent Of the vote, with
La Toilette and Bristow coming
next in order. The local demand
for Bristow is strong, because of
his good record and radical stand
in the senate. It must be ac-
knowledged, however, that in the
poll the radicals who stand for
Roosevelt and Bristow and Cum
Minis and Beveridge would al
most to a man be for La Toilette
as against Taft. This is shown
in the fact that La Toilette leads
in the second and third choice
columns, and that Taft falls flat
in both Of them, there being but
l,942 out OF the l4,OOO who give
him any consideration whatever.
1t would be interesting to get
a similar poll in Nebraska. The
Capital suggests that the coun-
try papers take up the matter,
ask their subscribers to vote,
and send a weekly report to this
paper, or to Editor E. i. Cornell

G. w. BARKLEY A SUICIDE
Seward Bank Cashier Shoots
Himself Through Forehead.

Seward, Neb., May 10 The
lifeless body of Charles w. Bark
ley, cashier of the State bank
for many years, was found at
0:30 a. m. in one of the corn
cribs of the Updike Grain com
pany, near the Northwestern rail
road tracks in West Seward
Mr.. Barley had arisen about 6
c'cloek, built a fire in the kit
chen range and then left the
house. His prolonged failure to
return caused his wife to become
alarmed and a search was insti-
tuted to find the missing man.
The sheriff and city marshal or
gained a large number of
townspeople for the hunt and
after three hours and a half the
body was found. The forehead
was pierced by a bullet.
Coroner Doty w as called from
Cordova and after viewing the
scene Of the tragedy, decided
that it was a plain case of suicide
and no inquest was held. Mr..
Barley had returned Friday
from a two weeks trip in Colo
RADIO and Montana to see his
sons and seemed to be in a state
Of nervous collapse. His physi-
cal condition many believe was
the cause Of his taking his own
life. Since the act this morning
it has developed that he made
an attempt on his life Sunday af-
ternoon by taking chloroform.
He was discovered before the
dose caused fatal results. DR.. J.
7. Potter administered the re-
storatives at that time.
Mr.. Barley went to the State
bank this morning and took the
revolver from the vault. He was
seen by people living in the
neighborhood Of the place where
the suicide was committed and
he appeared to be acting in a
mysterious manner. A little later
the shot was heard but nothing
much was thought about it as so
many hunters frequent the edge
of the town.
Mr.. Barkley has been a resi-
dent of Seward since 1878 and
has been connected with the
State bank for almost that length
of time. lie was a highly re-
spected and honored man of the
community and one Of the leaders
of the Methodist church and Sun
day school. He is survived by his
wife and two sons, Henry of Den
yer and VIII who lives in Mon

-Four years ago Nebraska poll
ticians laughed at the idea of

were hunting band wagons. They
didn't care what a candidate re-
presented. What they wanted
was to be with the winner.
There has since been a change

turned out to be a good deal of
a loser so far as Nebraska is

grown in favor until the demand

Ten Mile OF Concretc.

Editor Journal: see by the
council proceedings that the city pro-
poses all of a sudden, in the middle
of winter. to order about ten miles
of cement sidewalks down in all parts
of the city This sounds good, but it
comes with blare of rumpets, and
in a way that makes it worth while
for the people to investigate before it
is carried out. This will cost the
people of Salem about 100000, and
great portion of it will be put on
cheap, remote property In many
places, to get the proper grade, fills
will have to be made, with no time
for the earth to settle This will
cause bad work and great loss. This
sudden conversion to the concrete
idea might be cause for a little
thought, too. Why has everything
been done to force concrete in pref
erence to all other building materi-
ais? Orders have been made for
/ bitulithic and other hard surface
pavements and then rescinded in
the interest of concrete, Concrete
may be the best thing, but the pub
lie is given no information on this
subject. and the jobs are railroaded
through, but the public pays the bills.
And all this is on 90 days notice.
Many of these sidewalks may, with
little repair still be good for few
years and I do not believe that the
city has a moral or legal right to
force people to take up a sidewalk
that still has some good wear in it
in order to put down concrete. The
council seems to have so me very
concrete ideas along this line In
fact all their thoughts run to con
crete but the people pay the bills
Who sells the concrete? Who buys
it? Who checks up the bills? Who
! certified to the correctness of al
these things? Who is who, anyway
