TOWNE IS A HARD PILL TO SWALLOW

LINCOLN, May U. (Special.) The notion
of tho Sioux Falls convention In nominat
ing Charles A. Towno for vlco pretildont
cant a sloom of disappointment over tho few
leading popocratB who were In the city
today. Tho democrats wcro especially tore
orer tho selection and did not hesltato In
aylng so.
"Wo thought they would Icavo the selec
tion to a committee," said one prominent
democrat at tho state house, "t don't think
that tho selection of Tov.no whs wlio anil
1 doubt If tho democrat will endorso
him as their candidate. If Towno with
draws It will create a lot of tll-ft-cllHK nnd
If b stays In tho raco he will make tho
democrats sore. Altogether the selection
ass very undiplomatic. Townc Is recognized
8 a good man, but his party afllllatlon is
against him."
Wilbur l Ilryant, recently appointed
deputy clerk of tho supreme court, took
an entirely different view of tho nomina
tion. "I regard tho nomination as an ex
cellent one," ho said, "and ono that would
do any party proud. I think the populism
did Just right In nominating. If Mr. Towne
see that It will ho all right for him to re
main on tho ticket, ho will accept the nom
ination, but If he sees disaster ahcud he
Is broad enough and has enough good judg
ment to refuse It."
Ilrynn Mlcnt for Oner.
W. J. flryan refused to talk concerning
tbo action of the convention and would not
express an opinion as to tho wisdom of tho
selection made. He said ho wan not aware
that Mr. Towno had been named until so
Informed by a reporter. Last night when
Mr. Hryan was Informed of his own nomina
tion he manifested only passing Intorest and
refused positively to bo Interviewed.
It Is rot known when tbo notification com
mittee will como to Lincoln to Inform Itryan
of his nomination. Hcwovcr, preliminary
steps have been taken toward tho arrange
ment of a big demonstration on tho day
selected.
Arthur J. Weaver of Falla City Is re
ported to havo withdrawn from tho race
for tho congressional nomination In the
First district In favor of 1M Fallon, a
Klchardson county democrat, nnd It H
understood hero that an arrangement has
been effected by which the latter Is to
nsslst him In securing tho nomination for
county attorney, this being ono of tho
conditions of hln withdrawal. Mr. Weaver
has forsaken tho silver republican party
Bnd Joined tho democrats nnd has already
begun nn nctlvo canvass for tho county
attorneyship of Klchardson county. Tho
congressional situation In tho First dis
trict Is Htlll In nn unsettled condition be
cause of tho uncertainty as to whether
James Mnnnhan of this city intends to
enter tho race. Mr. Muuahan has a largo
and powerful following In tho democratic
party nnd nlthnugh ho was defeated two
years ago by Durkct, there Is Htlll a dis
position on tho part of some to placo him
In the field n second time. If he decides
to enter the rnco tho fight will Iro princi
pally between himself nnd Matt (Jerlng of
I'lnttsmouth. J. II. Ilroady of thin city has
Hn mentioned as a probable democratic
candidate ami will enter tho race with the
support of Lancaster county unless Mr.
Manahnn decides to mako another try for
the 'office. T,hcre"lH n feeling alt' over tho
district that tho nomination should be given
to some other county than Iancastcr nnd
Tinth Richardson and Cass will bold out for
tho honor.

Tho mystery surrounding tho caso of Ktta

MRS. FROST HAS CALLERS
Srarrnl Men Mnkr Attempt to Com
fun ii leu I e ulth Primmer .lint at
tell Wind on I cnrl) t uuulit.
YOIIK. Neb., May II. (Special.) Tho
fact that a pursuing Jailer stumbled over a
lawn mower In tho dark Is nil that savrd
ono of Mrs. Frost s men admlretn from being
captured. For several nights two or moro
men havo bcen signaling and rapping on tho
casument of tho windows of the Jail, calling
to Mrs. Frost that they wanted to talk to
her. The authoritlos thinking that possibly
there might bo an attempt by parties to
converse with Mrs. Frost they located her
In a cell back nnd away from tho outsld'i
wind.ws where It is a little difficult to com
munlcatii with the outside public nnd in
formed her that one of tho rule of tho Ja.l
was that she should hold no communication
or conversation with any one on tho out
side with tho threat that If she did they
would romovc her still farther from the win
dow nnd In not ns pleasant a cnll room.
Last night when Jailer Illckley was In the
Jail bo heard a gentle knocking, then louder
ami then heard some man calling "Mrs.
Frost, Mrs. Frost." Putting out tho light
In the Jail Illckley crept around to the. aldo
door nnd mado a dash for the- Intruder and
would have raptured him had It not been
that ho stumbled over a lawn mower left In
the court houso yard.
Just whnt these men admirers or
friends of Mrs. Frost want Is a question. It
Is believed that If It were not for the
vigilance of tho Jailer there might havo
been an nttempted Jail delivery. Tho York
county Jail Is one of the best nnd ntronget
country Jails, sl.tuated In the basement rf
tho court houso In the northeast corner.
Ono or two Inmate In past years have got
ten out and escaped.
Mrs. Frost, In appearance, conversation
and actions is apparently less concerned at
to the results of tho chemical analysis of
tho stomach of Mr. Frost than any other
woman In York. Sho still maintains that ccol,
calm mnnncr, heartily cats her meals nnd
spends most of the time reading books, mag
azines and newspapers. Her attorney con
tinues to call quite frequently nnd cautions
her to say nothing an to her case to any one.
In conversation this week tho subject of
her husband's denth was brought around
and In reply to the question asking her If the
did not think it would go hard with her If
tho chemical analysis showed poison In tho
stomach, she, In a' half boasting way, replied
that "It does not matter much whether tho
stomach was full of poison, they would hare
a pretty hard time to prove that I gave it
to Mr. Frost."
Tho coroner's Jury Is dally oxpcctlng a
notification from the chemist nt Omaha who
has tho stomach for nnaljbls and upon ro
ccipt of said notification It will call a
meeting of tho Jury announcing tho result
of tho nnnlyslfl. It Is rumored that there
may bo a meeting of the Jury on Saturday,
May 12, which will probably be held at tho
lato homo of Mr. Frost.

An effort has been made to sccuro tho
erection of a lunch stand at the cast end
of the Q street vinduct, and although It Is
asserted that the city has leased tho prop
erty for tho purpore, objections arise which
wlll pcsslbly cause moro or leas annoyance.
As tho railroad companies now keep (ho

they have something to say In regard to the
placing of buildings under or at the ap

Mayor Kelly Is In receipt of tbo follow
ing loUcr from W. J. C. Kcnyon, goneral
manager of the Union Stock Yards com
pany. In regard to tho erection of stands
near the Q Street viaduct:
"There Is home lumber near the east an
proarlt of tho Q street viaduct and we
understand that some one contemplates
erecting a building cither attached to or
noar this point, or beneath tho structuro.
Repairs to this viaduct are being made
from time to time by tho Union Pacific and

and we desire to call your nttention to tho

soever occurs by reason of any buildings
that may bo erected near, attached to, or

break out and burn any portion of the
wooden structure of the viaduct, this com
pany will not be responsible for nny neces

WASHINGTON. May ll.-(Speclal Tele
gram.) The nomination of Qharlcs A.
Towne of Minnesota for Wee president on
tho Sioux Falls populist ticket fell like a
wet blanket on tho democrats In Washing
ton when they read tho result this morning.
Leaders of tho party in congress were cau
tious In expressing themselves, but tho rank
nnd file said that It wat, contrary to the
general wish of Hryan. I)lappoIntment at
the nomination for weond placo on the
ticket extended during the afternoon and to
night it u freely predicted that Towne will
not be nominated at Knnsas City.
"Why nhould the big democratic party
stultify itself by nominating Towne. who
says ho in a silver republican?" ald nn
Ohio member of congrcs. "In 1896 In our
state wo gave tho populists nine electors
and they ran 20,000 behind the democrats.
Had Hryan carried the stato by 20,000 he
would still hnvo been nine electors shy In
Ohio. I, for one, am getting tired of giv
ing tho populists recognition and the dem
ocrats demand a straight ticket from tho
Kansas City convention,"
Congressman Neville, on the other hand,
who la one of tho meat helpful men In the
lower house, when populism and Hryanlsm
are discussed, said tb democrats would have
to nominate Towne at Kansas City. "If they
don't, they will havo to give us a man
equally ns strong nnd ono who reprceonta
tho populist policies."
Congressman Stark was less aggressive
nnd considerably more tactful In hl uttor
nnce than hln colleague. "Democrats are
saying llttlo over tho -nomination," said
Stark, "but In a fow days you may expect
to heir their views aired. Perwonally. now.
mat tno nomination Is mado, I am for tho
ticket."

It is generally thought that Towne will
bo pulled off the populist ticket and tho
nominees of the Kaunas City convention
substituted. Towno Is not Tom Watson by
any means. Ho Is too foxy to bo caught as
Watson was nnd If desired will give up tho
nomination, knowing that If by unforeseen
accident nrynn shctlld be elected ho will bo

gradually removed. It puts n severe strain
on the human system to adjust Itself to tho
climatic change from winter to summer.
Many diseases aro acquired at this season
of the jear. Peruna Is lndlpcns.ible to tldo
the nervous system over this unusual strain,
No one should neglect to take a short course
of Peruna during the spring. It will fortify
tho system ngalnst the depressing Influences
of hot weather. Buy n bottle today and
commence.
