Congressman Dolliver says he
likes the democratic party better in its
habitual attitude of belaboring the

see it clothed in authority, hopelessly

Mr. Bryan had Congressman Rob

Congressman Dolliver of Iowa
made a speech yesterday that erery
one should read. Many of his expres
sions will be used by political speak
era next fall. He denounced in scath
ing terms those who had sought to
turn everything, good or bad, to politi
cal account; had gone in partnership
with the diseases in the army camps
and had tried to pick up votes at every
soldier's funeral.
There are two ideas or tbe na
tional duty in this emergency," says
Congressman Dolliver. "One is that
the nation should take care 'of itself
and leave the world alone. That is a
arrow view of our national duty.
The other view of the national life, an
ideal born in the workman of Naza
reth, is that no nation liveih to itself
alone, but that every real nation, like
ours, wear itself out in the service of
mankind. "
The Porto Rican tariff bill passed
the house yesterday by a vote of 172 to

great' victory. Six sick members
were carried to the hall to vote some

low of Tennessee was one of them and
when it was urged that his absence
might mean the defeat of the bill, said:
"I would rather lose my life than see
that bill defeated." He sat bundled up
near the entrance until his vote was
recorded, then withdrew.
A PLAN To AMALGAMATE.
One of tbe most important- mov. -ments
in the history of the More n
church is beiDg discussed by the lead
ers of the church at Salt Lake C .
Utah, and the faction that remained
in Missouri when Brip ham Young and
his followers went to Utah, There
factions are known as the Josephites,
whose present headquarters are at
Lamoni, la., and the Hendrickites,
who live at Independence, Mo. The
membership of the Josephite branch
is 30,000, but the Hendrickites have
dwindled to about 140. The only point
of difference between the doctrines of
these factions and those of the Utah
Mormons is on the question of polyg
amy and, as the Utah church has offi
cially suspended this practice, there is
now no obstacle to the amalgamation
of all tbe branches. According to the
Book of Mormon, Independence, Mo.,
is the site of the Garden of Eden, and,
according to the Mormon prophesy,
the saints will ultimately be gathered
there, erect a magnificent temple and
build up the latter day Zion.
Prior to the split in the church and
before the exodus to Utah, Independ
ence was the dwelling place of all the
Mormons and a tract of ground was
purchaeeJ for the temple site. When
Brigham Young and his followers
went west, the Josephites and Hen
drickites became involved in litiga
tion over the title to this temple site,
and the case was decided by the United
States circuit court of appeals in fa
vor of the Hendrickites. The Utah
Mormons furnished the funds to the
Hendrickites to carry on the litiga
tion and if the present plan of amal
gamation is successful, this site will be
turned over to the Utah church and a
fine temple be erected there, prepara
tory to the final gathering of all the
saints of the earth at that point. Two
representatives of the Hendrickites,
Elders Cole and Frisby, of Inndepend
ence, are now in Utah. They have
authority from the Josephites to apeak
for that branch, and their propositions
have been discussed by the twelve
apostles, but no definite conclusion has
been reached.
Puerto Ricans have made a good
record as soldiers, hence the secretary
of war has ordered that another bat
talion of the natives be enlisted to

will be purchased in the island, as tbe

Tf Us the Court How Her Former Haabaml.
Allensby, Mistreated Her.
Mrs. E. S. Greusel was called to the
witness stand in Judge Holmes' court
at Lincoln yesterday afternoon to give
bee side of the case wherein E. W.
A-lensby, her former husband, seeks
to gain possession of her five-year-old
child. The Lincoln News contains the
following report of the trial:
"A sad-faced woman, garbed in
black, with a round, turban-like hat,
from which depended a long, black
veil, occupied the witness stand for
nearly two hours in Judge Holmes'
court this morning. She is the widow
of E. S. Greusel, former master me
chanic of the Havelock shops, who put
a bullet in his brain some months ngo.
She was also at one time the wife of
E. W. Allensby, an employe of the san
itarium. Allensby has brought her
back into court in an action in which
he seeKs to get possession of their boy,
five years old, and she told the judge
all her troubles this'morning.
"She said they were married in Mil
waukee in 1894, and for over a year,
until after their baby was born, their
married life was very happy. After
that he became a changed man. was
cruel in his language to her, accused
her of infidelity, and called her vile
names. Once when he had called her
a name impugning her chastity, she
put her arms about his neck and asked
him in imploring terms if he knew
what he was doing. He pushed her
away and repeated the epithet, with
additions. He had denied the parent
age of their child at one time, and ac
cused her of being intimate with a
man named Grassman, engineer at the
sanitarium, where both worked.
"On one occasion, she said, he had
written a note and signed Grassman's
name to it, and pushed it under her
door. It asked her why she did not
keep her appointment and requested
another. When her husband returned
she showed it to him and told him she
wanted him to go with her before the
managers of the institution and face
Grassman. Then he admitted he had
written it, and tore it up. On another
occasion he had her send for Grassman
to come to their rooms. He hung a
sheet across one corner of the room
and hid behind this. He had her ask
Grassman when he appeared what he
meant by saying slighting things
about ber. He replied that he bad not,
and she told him that her husband sus
pected them of undue intimacy.
Grassman jumped up and exclaimed:
" lMy God, what if he came now and
found me here?'
'He would probably kill you,' she
replied.
"Grassman made for the door, and
continued the conversation with the
door open. The questions asked on
cross-examination indicated a denial

had happened.
"Continuing, Mrs. Greusel said that
she was met at the door on her return
from work by cruel accusations, that
he had failed to properly support her,
finally compelling her to pay half of
their grocery bill, after she had been
clothing herself and the boy. She said
sho had never refused to allow him to
see the boy since their divorce, that he
never made personal application to
her.
"She made a very erood witness. On
cross-examination she admitted frank
ly matters that told against her, and
gave the appearance of one who
wanted the whole truth to come out.
She said the boy had been well clotbed
and taken good care of.
'What presents has Mr. Allensby
made the child since your separation?
asked her attorney.
"'None,' was the reply.
"'.What was it he sent him Christ
mas
" 'He did not send him any.'
"'What! Not even a Christmas
present?' asked her attorney with
astonishment.
" 'No,' she repliedalthough the lit
tle fellow looked for it and was much
disappointed.'
"On cross-examination she said that
sba bad never complained because
their house had not been as well fur
nished as she thought he could afford
and that all would have been well had
he not persisted in staying out late at
night. She admitted that she had got
many things at various stores on Mr
Allensby's credit, that they had many
quarrels during the last three years,
and that she had accused him of infi
delity also.
"Judge Holmes asked her a number
of searching questions She protested
that she had always been true to him,
that she would have been content to
live with him bad be been kirM to her.
.She said that letters had come to her
telling her of her husband's attentions
to other women, but she had paid no
attention to them until she overheard
a conversation between her husband
and a woman, in which an appoint
ment was made. Then she followed
him and became convinced. Even af
ter this she lived with him for two
years, hoping thai he might turn again
to hnr. She suppressed these facts
in her divorce petition for the child's
sake and to avoid the disgrace. Then
she broke down and sobbed. At the
conclusion of the hearing she broke
down again and sobbed bitterly.
Her mother and several neighbors
in Havelock testified that the child
had been properly treated and was as
well dressed and cared for a other
children of his age.
"Yesterday afternoon Allensby was
on the stand. He did not consider her
parents had taken proper care of the
child, that they had forbidden him to
see it,had taught it Norwegian instead
of English and had kept it ragged and
dirty. He said he was able and willing
to pay for its keep and support, and
gave as his reason for not paying the 1
$10 a month alimony that he had not
been allowed to see the boy.
"Officers from Omaha testified to the
incidents preceding the arrest of Mrs.
Allensby and Greusel in 'Omaha, and
one young lady said she had visited at
the Greusel home and that in her opin
ion the child was not welljjcared for.
The little fellow had fallen asleep on
the floor and lay there for several
hours. Afterwards his mother picked
hiro up and put him in bed with his
clothes on."
The case was continued until tomor

Judge Holmes was etigaged this af
ternoon in hearing the case in which
Edgar Allensby seeks to regain pos
session and custody of his live year-old
son, Floyd, says the Lincoln News
The boy is now with Mrs. Ajrnes Greu
sel, his mother, formerly Mrs. A I
lensby.
It appears that when Mr?. Allensby
secured a divorce a few r.'.onths ago,
she was given the custody of the child.
Allensby bases his present demands on
the ground that she is not a fit person
to have charge of the boy. In verifica
tion of this he manes charges as to her
licemen from Omaha to testify' that
they caught Mrs. Allensby, after she
had secured a divorce, in a room at
night in an Omaha hotel, with E. S.
Greusel, whom she married the next
day.
The testimony is of a particularly
sensational character, as it goes into
the history of the Omaha incidents to
prove the allegation of unfitness. Mr.
Allensby was on the stand a good share
of the afternoon. lie said his wife
placed the child with its grandparents.
who, he thought, treated it rather
shabbily. They are Norwegians and
teach it that language to the exclusion
of English. He said he had been for
bidden to see tbe child. He had been
ordered to pay $10 a month for its
maintenance, but had paid this two
months only. Attempts to introduce
evidence as to why he had not piid
this money longer when he said he
was willing to pay it were gotten in
only by implication. He started to
tell the court that he had been for
bidden to see the child and hence did
not pay, but this was not gone into
very fuliy.
In Cross examination, Attorney C. O.
Whedon asked if it was not true that
the grandparents of the child had
told him he had been talking in a
scurrilous manner aoout them and for
that reason they did not want him to
come around again. He said thev had
made some such charge but he denied
ever talking about them in that way.
Other testimony was given to show
that Mrs. Greusel was not a fit person
to trust with the custody of the child.
The young lady who had cared for it
when Mr. and Mrs. Allensby were
both employed at the sanitarium, was
called to the stand. She said the child
wa3 then very dirty and was allowed
to go about ragged and was on certain
times, she mentioned, put to bed in a
dirty condition l y the mother simply
pulling off its shoes. One time the
mother let the child lie on the fi. or all
night. Testimony was also introduced
to show that tbe defendant used im
proper language to a witness in the
court room when the case was called
before. It was asserted that she c illed
three ladies who are on the opposite
side an offensive name.
The counsel for the defense endeav
ored to 6how that Mr. Allensby was
paying attention to another woman at
the present time, but when the ques
tion was asked it was denied. This is
considered preliminary to evidence the
defense expects to put in showing that
the plaintiff is unfit to take the child.
The case will be continued today.

A SINGULAR COINCIOENCE.
Two I'orkrt-Ilonki Lost and Found In a
Rather Strange Way.
Two young farmers who reside a
couple of miles west of Plattsmouth
were standing near the hallway of the
Fitzgerald building yesterday after
noon when a News reporter came
along. They signaled him to halt and
volunteered to give him a "good
thing" for the paper providing no
names were mentioned. This is the
substance of their story:
One of the youncr men was coming
to town with a load of 6tovewood last
Saturday morning and he had just
crossed the Missouri Pacific bridge on
tho Weeping Water road, when one of
the hind wheels suddenly came off and
he was compelled to stop for repair?
While he was "sizing up" the situa
tion his gaze fell upon a leather case
which appeared to be a ladies' pocke
book, lying under the loose wheel
Lpon examination he found it con
tained $40 four $10 bills. He decided
to keep the matter a secret until he
reached home. In due time another
farmer on his way to Plattsmouth
came along and 'assisted him to re
place the wheel. While he was in one
of the local stores making some pur
chases, he made tho startling discov
ery that he had lost his own pocket
book, containing about $30 in cash and
some receipts which he valued very
highly. His visions of the Klondike
and rich gold fields vanished very pre
ci( tibly, but he was consoled to some
extent by remembering the $40 found
under such singular circumstanses
and which nestled snugly in his inside
coat pocket.
On tho way home he decided to tell
his wife about .the incident from the
beginning, and conclude the story by
telling her of his own loss. This is
where the strangest part of the story
comes in. He was giving his wife a
detailed account of how he had found
the pocket book under the "off wheel,1
when some one rapped on the door
and lo and behold! in marched a neigh
bor carrying the pocket book which
he had lost that mornicg while on his
way to town with the load of wood
Explanations followed, and it de
veloped that the neighbor and his wife
had gone to town that morning, and
tho latter lost her leather pocket book
(containing $40) on the way, and on
their return trip they were naturally
on the lookout for the missing article
and near the place where the wagon
had broke down that morning they
found a pocket book, but it was not the
one they had lost, as was indicated not
only by its appearance, but also by the
papers it contained, which bore the
name of the owner in several places.
It is needless to say that the neigh
bor was very agreeably surprised when
in return for the article be had found
he was presented with the pocket book
his wifs had lost, and there was great
loj..... j iiv,..t that
night.
Meeting of Congressional Committee.
A Nebraska City special to this
morning's Bee says. A meeting of the
republican congressional committee
was held at the Grand Pacific hotel
here this morning. The meeting was

caster, F. O. Dorr of Johnson, J. F
Griffith of Pawnee, J. W. Jamison of
ltichardson, Dr. S. W. McGrew of
Nemaha and F. II. Helvey of Otoe.
The convention will be held at Lin
coln April 12, at 8 p. m. The basis of

J. Burkett in 1898, under which tbe
different counties in the district are
entitled to the following delegates
Cas-, 25; Johnson, 14; Lancaster, 58;
Otoe. 23; Richardson, 4; Pawnee, 16;
Nemaha, 17; total, 177.
The call for the convention embraces
the nomination of a candidate for con
gress and also the selection of two
delegates and two alternates to tho re
publican national convention to be
held at Philadelphia, Jui.e 19.
The meeting was harmonious, the
members of the committee being unan
imously in favor of the nomination of
E. J. Burkett by acclamation, and also
f the renomination of William Mc-
Kinley.
What to Do Until the Doctor Arrive.
It is very hard to stand idly by and
see our dear ones suffer while await
ing the arrival of the doctor. An Ai-
banj (N. Y.) dairyman called at a drug
store there for a doctor to come and
see his child, then very sick with
croup. .ot noaing me aocior in, ue
left word for him to come at once on
bis return. Ho also bought a bottle of
Chamterlain's Cough Remedy, which
he hoped would give some relief until
the doctor should arrive. In a few
hours he returned, saying the doctor
need not come, as the child was much
better. The druggist,Mr. Otto Scholtz,
says the family has since recommended
Chambe' laiu's Cough Remedy to their
neighbors and friends, until he has a
constant demand for it from tht part

Foul-Smelling
Catarrh.
Catarrli is one of the most obstinate
diseases, and hence the most dillicult
to get rid of.
There is but one way to ruro it.
The disease is in the blood, and all the
sprays, washes and inhaling mixtures
in the norld can have no permanent
effect whatever upon it. Swift's Spe
cilic cures Catarrh permanently, for it is
the only remedy which can reach the
disease and force it from the blood.
Mr. B. 1. McAllister, of liarrodsburg,
Kv-. l-d Catarrh for years. He writes:
I could Fe no Improvement whatever,
thouuii 1 w.us constantly treated with Hjirnys
- and wnslifn. and Il ITer-
ent inhaling rerne,ii.-s
in fact. I could feel that
eneh winter I was wnrwi
than the year previou.
'Finally it wan
broutf h t to my notice
thatiiatarrh wast blood
disease, and after think
ing over the. matter. I
futw it wasunreiisonnhlo
vV remed-s which only
reiched the Bnrf:iee. I
?J-Vr.'S. then decided to try
if S' S :ti"d after a few Intles were ued. I no
ticed a iercepmlo improvement. Continuing
ti.e remedy, the disease wa.-l forced out of my
-v'tem. and a complete cure was the result,
i udvi-eall who have this dreadful tjiseane to
abandon thcirloe.il treatment.which lias never
clone them anv-ood. and take K b. b.. a. rem
edy that can reach the disease and cure it.
To continue the wrong treatment for
Catarrh is to continue to suffer. Swift's
Specific is a real blood remedy, and
3 urea obstinate, deep-seated diseases,
which other remedies have no effect
whatever upon. Jt promptly reaches
Catarrh, and never fails to cure even the
most aggravated cases.

is Purely Vegetable, and is the only
blood remedy guaranteed to contain no
iangerous minerals.
