A Narrow Escape.
j George W. Shrader accompanied two
car loads of stock to the South Omaha
! market Monday evening, and near the
j viaduct, while the train was in motion,
he jumped from the way car. The
; train was running at a greater speed
1 than he thought, and as he jumped, he
was hurled to the ground with great
force, his head striking a railroad tie,
rendering him unconsicious for about
' an hour. His son. Homer, who was
j with his father, also jumped from the
train and went to the aid of his father,
and thought for several moments that
he was killed. When he revived he re
turned home on the first train south
bound, and at last accounts he had near
ly recovered. It was a narrow escape
to say the least, and Uncle George's
many friends will be glad to learn, that
save a few bruises, his injuries were
no worse.

A Pcsr Discussion.
Senator-elect Wesley h. Jones, of
Washington, last night addressed the
voters of the city at the Parmele. .Sen
ator Jones is the man w ho defeated his
republican millioraire opponent for re
election to the senate at the republican
primaries in Washington last August.
The bills calling his meeting were mis
leading in that they sought to impress
the voters with the fact that he hatl
(teteated Senator Ankeny, a millionaire,
without specifying the latter gentle
man's political faith. For public in
formation it may be stated Ankeny was
also a republican.
There was an audience which com
fortably filled the lower part of the
house with a sprinkling around the
edges of the balcony. A large propor
tion of the audience was ladies, and
there were a number of children in the
audience. They City Band rendered a
number of good selections before the
meeting.
Hon. K. B.Windham presented the
speaker, making a nice introductory
speech and raising some enthusiasm by
the mention of the names of various
republican heros and candidates.
Senator Jones' address was of the
typical republican campaign type. lie
devoted a little time to the tariff, a
little less to injunctions and none at all
to bank guarantee. He spoke along
the familiar lines regarding Mr. Bryan
and his theories of government using
ridicule and sarcasm in dealing with the
democratic chieftain. One omission
which was much commented upon after
the speech by many of his listeners was
his studious avoidance of any reference
to the panic of last fall and this sum
mer, although he was free to predict
very hard times if Mr. Bryan was elec
ted. On the whole the speech failed to
point out anything new or startling and
only occasionally evoked anything like
applause with the genuine ring to it.
His references to Taft's record as a
friend of labor, failed to arouse the
expected applause. He made a noble
effort to clear his candidate's record
but evidently did not fill the bill. At
the close of the meeting an effort to
arouse enthusiasm resulted in a few
cheers, after which the meeting ad- j
journed. j
An unfortunate feature of the occas- j
sion was the interruption of the speak- j
er by parties in the audience a matter;
tr be denlored bv c vervone. A person i
who does not agree with a speaker! TVe (lo a general liwrv lUi
should either remain silent or leave if ,' n?S and want VOUI lratl'2.
th.2 remarks are not to his taste, and
remember that the sneaker i-s entitled
to his convictions as well as his audience.
The interruptions furnished the or.ly
