During the fourteenth ballot Bryan
rose from his chair in the Nebraska
delegation as the poll of that state
was ordered. He was interrupted with
the cry of "vote," "vote.' as he asked
permission to explain his vote.
Acting Chairman Sulzer ruled that
nothing was in order but the actual
vote. Mr.. Bryan persisted in explain.
ing amid shouts OF "Vote." 'Vote!''
Mr.. Bryan said: "As long as New
York's votes are cast for Clark | will
withhold my vote for him."
The convention was Immediately in
an uproar Senator Stone. of Missouri
shouted above the din, pleading with
the delegates and galleries to listen
to Mr.. Bryan.
"The vote of New York" said Mr..
Bryan, represents the wishes of one
man-Charles F. Murphy"
Mr. Bryan added that Murphy repre-
sented interests which sought to dom.
mate the convention, and said that
his associates of the Nebraska dele
cation were unwilling to accept the
name of any man who was receiving
the benefit of Murphy's leadership

MASON RA|lEY KILLED
j. S. Williams Of Madison County
Brother.in-Law, Charged with
the Shooting.

Mason Railey. white man about
thirty-fve years old, living on what
is known as the Eugene Zuber place
near College Station, was shot and
killed here about 8 o'colck this after
noon.
The shooting occurred in the store
of B. Kaczer & Co. on Main street,
and that thoroughfare being crowded
at the time, 1t naturally created great
excitement. The store was closed at
once to keep out the crowd, and II
was extremely difficult to get the facts
of the shooting, or any Of the causes
leading up to it.
Williams and Railey were brothers
in-law, and it is said that family trou-

forth to ride along the river bank

In the swift dusk of evening, when fur
tive jackals rent the twilight stiffness
with wailing and demoniac laughter,
or the silver bark Of little foxes
echoed over the mist-veiled rice-fields,
white under the moon, we gathered in
comfortable deck chairs in a great,
dim aisle of the mango grove, while
the tents shone orange in the lamp
light, to tell sad stories of the deaths
of kinds, or listen to the Police Chota
Sahib, who had a pretty, sentimental
tenor, singing 1.-THE Long Indian

CHILDREN A RECENT FIND
Not Before the Nineteenth Century
Were They TruthfuIly Portrayed
in Literature.

Children were only found yesterday.
Before the nineteenth century the
child mind and the child heart were
not supposed to have enough in them
to interest the majestic adult. 1t is
true that you find delightful baby In
Homer; that in Virgil there Is the
prettiest glimpse Of little girl, and up
and down in the classics you may
meet half dozen other pleasant
shadows Of children. But they are
only shadows, only at the most charm
ing pictures. They give you much
as If they were painting or sculpture
for in children's bodies art has always
had interest enough-only what q
child looks like, the pretty weakness,
the instinct for play, the naive ges-
ture and movement. Not till the re
turn to nature" not till the spirit OF
romance moved on the waters at the
end of the eighteenth century, do you
find poets beginning to tell Of the
thought and faith in child's mind.
the mysteries of the child's heart, the
fancies that are dreams and the fam
cies that are visions. You may think
that they have gone too far, that they
read into childhood the laborious phil
osophizing and sometimes the labored
sentimentality OF the adult. But no
one who loves children will deny that
the best Of the children in nineteenth
century books have a far richer real
fly, far fuller life than any that were
born In early works. And some of
the best ere in Dickens.-London Tel

PREDECESSORS OF CAPT. LUX
Colonel Saussier, General Zurlinden
and Others Have Escaped From
Prisons In Germany.

About a dozen precedents for tho
escape Of Captain Lux from his Ger
man prison can be found in the his
tory of the Franco-German war, and
a large proportion of the heroes OF
them lived to become famous.
A notable case was that Of General
(then coloneD Saussier, ultimately
commander-in-chief of the French
army, who was detained at Grandens.
in the extreme east of Prussia. It Il
said that he put his bolster to bed in
stead of himself, hid in an obscure
corner of the fortress until nightfall.
and then, having obtained dis
guise by the help of his orderly, waa
allowed to walk out of the main
prison gate.
He crossed the frontier to Poland
and returned to France by way OF
Austria and Italy.
General Zurlinden was another pr1s-
oner who got out of his prison at
Glogan in Silesia, on Christma4 eve.
He made his way in disguise through
Berlin, Frankfort and Karlsruhe to
Basel, feast which was not difhcult
for him, as, being an Alsatian, he
spoke German quite as we'll as hia
jailers.
Thirdly, we may note the expert
ences of M. Paul Deroulede, who CO.
capped from Breslau, and it Is piQuant
to recall that that vehement anti.
Semitic did not disdain to disguise
himself as a Polish Jew. He was very
nearly betrayed by peasant whom
he had bribed to guide him into Bo-
hemia; but he drew his knife with =
ferocious gesture and the peasant
changed his mind, with the result
that M. Deroulede saw the final fights
of the war as sub-lieutenant Of Turs
cos.

THREE BUILDERS OF NATIONS
Washington Never Yielded to
Oespotic Ideals.

AS a Matchmaker Cavour stands
with William the Silent and George
Washington. Each of these men
fought through the agony Of war of
liberation, yet never yielded for a mo-
ment to the militarist or despotic
ideals so liable to be bred in time of
crisis; each loved free institutions
with his whole heart; each could have
said as truly as William the Silent, Il
was always on the side of the people,"
yet each avoided the special faults of
the demagogue as completely as Well
ington or Peel; each planted justice
and mercy amid the chaos Of wrath
and revolution; each kept an heroic
equanimity of temper toward all their
supporters, even toward the foolish
and the false who babe fair to ruin
their work; finally, each died leaving
as his handiwork a nation whose ev-
cry merit is symbolized in the life of
the man who made it, whose every de-
feet is due to the tradition which he
started being too lofty for imita-
ton. If Americans can boast that
America is more true to the traditions
of Washington than Italy is true to
the traditions Of Cavour, they may be
sure that their country is reaping the
benefit in due proportion. Measures
and policies and constitutions must
change with changing time, but the
spirit that inspires a just policy Is the
same in the eighteenth, the nine
teenth, and the twentieth centuries
