As a result of tho address delivered yes
terday afternoon at tho First Presbyter.nn
church by Miss Eva Marshall Shontz of
Chicago, originator and national president
of tho Young People's Cuilstlan Tempor
anco union, a local organization will be
effected. A mass meeting will bo hold
this evening at St. John'B English Luthetan
church, when steps will bo taken to form
a local branch of tho union. Addioiscs
will bo mado by a number of tho ministers
of tho city nud prominent workers in tho
tompcranco cause.
At tho closo of yesterday afternoon's
meeting tho following comralttco ai ap
pointed on organization: Ilov. W. S.
Barnes of tho First Presbyterian church,
ltov. J. W. Wlleon of tho Congregational
church, Ilev. W. II. Cable of Trinity Meth
odist church, II. A. Colo, W. C. Coker
and W. S. Homer. Ono hundred and twonty
young pcoplo signed tho pledge.
Miss "Shontz was greeted by nn auJlcncc
that completely filled tho largo auditorium
of tho church and her nddrcss waj listened
to with much Interest. Mlsa Shontz Is an
earnest worker In tho tompcranco cauo
and nor enthusiasm leads her to mnko
some very radical statements. Her ad
dress was a scathing arraignment of tho
liquor traffic and every ono connected with
it. Slio took occasion to arraign Proildtnt
McKlnlcy, whom sho accused of drlnklug
liquor at public entertainments. Sho also
nrralgned him for being tho guest of tho
president of tho whisky trust at Peoria.
Sho urged tho doing away of tho army
canteen nnd blamed tho president for not
using his authority nnd influcnco to abolish
it. Hcferenco was mado by hor to tho
saloons In Manila, which sho said woro
demoralizing the soldiers In tho Pht.ip
pines. Tho liquor traffic, sho asserts, con
trols tho administration of nil tho largo
cities In tho country, Council Bluffs not
excepted. Tho brewers nro tho real nn
archlsts of tho country and tho liquor
trarflc owns tho stars nnd stripes. "Tho
saloons must go," or they will be the
downfall of tho country.
As a remedy she urged tho educating of
tho younger genorntlon against tho uso of
liquor and tho formation of tomperanco
unions.

SOME STORIES BY SENATORS
Out tm( of n .In it of l'eneh nnd Honey
Which Wnn llronched .lust Be
fore Adjournment.
WASHINGTON, Juno 17. (Special.) A
Jug of mellow peach brandy In Senator
Scott's commltteo room was frcoly tapped
by tho senator and his friends on the night
preceding tho adjournment of that body. Ac
publicans and democrats "got together" over
the seductlvo fluid, and some of tho antics
of tho lawmakers would mnko powerful In
teresting reading. It mado tho usually'
staid and dignified senators as frisky and as
playful as kittens without bringing to tho
surfaco any disposition to display their pu
gilistic qualifications.
Speaking of tho West Virginia senator's
peach and honey, Congressman Henry of
Texas said:
"I am reminded by tho treat of Senator
Scott of the once famous old Judge Colo of
my state. Ho was characterized by his at
tachment to that seductlvo beverage, peach
and honey, and his hatred of whisky and
whisky drinkers. Whllo holding court at
Austin two men wcro brought up on a chargo
of a drunken affray. It was a plain caso
and thero wcro a score of witnesses to tho
transaction. Tho delinquents pleaded guilty
and threw themselves on tho mercy of tho
court. They wcro brought up for scntenco
separately.
" 'You aro guilty of an affray,' growled
tho Judgo.
" 'Yes, your honor,' whined tho offender,
and with tho hopo Hint It might mitigate his
punishment added that ho was drunk.
" 'Drunk on rye whisky, too,' roared tho
Judge, In n volco of thunder.
" 'Yes, your honor, drunk on ryo whisky.'
" 'Mr. Clerk, record a lino of f SO against
this man,' cried Judgo Cole, 'and send him
to Jail for sixty days. Wish I could doublo
It.'
This was poor comfort for tho other fel
low who was watting his turn, nnd he camo
forward with fear and trembling, but In an
instant his faco woro a fotnt smile, which
was not understood until tho Judgo began
to question him, first asking him It he, too,
was drunk.
" 'Yes, your honor; drunk, very drunk,
was tho reply.
" 'And on ryo whisky, too?' snapped tho
Judgo.
" 'Ob, no, your honor; I never drink
whisky. I got tangled up on peach nnd
honoy.'
"The Judge's features relaxed In nn In
Btnnt, and tho prisoner realized that ho had
mado a ten-8tr!ke. As tho Judgo raised his
spectacles he contemplated tho offender with
Interest and then with something llko ten
dcrncss said:
" 'Ah, sir, pench and honey, eh I That's
a gentleman's drink, sir. Tho court sym
pathlzcs with you, sir, and docs not regard
your offense as very serious. Mr. Clerk,
enter a Quo of $1 against this gentleman and
dlschargo him on payment of costs.' "
According to Senator Tillman, Ninety-Six,
South Carolina, was named by an Indian
woman, It bolng tho end of a Journey mado
by her on foot during tho revolutionary war
to Inform tho British that tho enemy would
attack them. Tho Indian woman know tho
fort was In danger and determined to In
form tho official. Sho left her homo on tho
Keowce river and made her way on foot
through virgin forest, swamp and snow. On
crossing each stream of wator sho gave It
tho name of tho number of miles she had
traveled beforo reaching it. In Pickens
county, along tho Pledcmont belt, through
which tho Southern railway runs, thero 'aro
eighteen creeks named up to twenty-six.
It required a day and a night for tho
squaw to reach Ninety-Six. It Is one of the
oldest towns In tho state's history. Tho
buildings aro of ancient construction. Tho
typical African Is to bo found thero in
abundance, with hair tied up In strings in
long strands that characterize tho old-time
darkey. Thero aro a few gingcr-cako colors
thero who havo defeated tho "Jim Crow"
car by having their hair dona up In a French
twist.
Thero Is a peculiar portrait In Washington
which has created much Intercut among
thoso who know of Us existence Its pe
culiarity Is that every year It has been
changed to show, tho changes which time
would havo mado In tho original. Tho por
trait is by a Washington artist and Is that
of his wife, nnd was painted many years ago
when sho was a young bride. A few years
after tho portrait was painted tho young
wlfo died and so great was the grief of tho
artist, that ho determined to keep her like
ness with him all tho tlmo and to do so ho
decided that year by year ho would change
the portrait so as to mako It grow old with
him and thus keep her, as It were, over with
hlra. Every year, on tho anniversary of
their wedding day, the artist locked him
self in his studio and changed tho lines of
tho face of tho portrait, adding what he
thought would make tho difference of ono
year. Thero havo been many anniversaries
of that wedding day and conseqnently many
changes In tho portrait Today tho picture
Is that of an old woman, the hair turned
gray, the face wrinkled and pale, but still
beneath tho marks of time, as made by the
brush of tho artist, can be seen tUo early
beauty of tho bride and tho attractiveness
of tho young woman.

tho warrant wilt bo Issued on Tuosday
night, as per resolution passed at tho j
special meeting last week.
Another question to como up will bo the '
acceptance of City Treasurer Koutiky's
Lond. This bond Is In tho sum of $50,000
and Is ttsttcd by n well known surety com j
pnny In New York. As Treasurer Koutsky .
receives no compensation from tho board
for his work tho school district naturally
pays for tho bond, which costs $125 a year.
In this connection It has been sugg?sted
that some provision bo made to tho trcas-
urer for his work, as under tno terms or
tho surety bond ho Is not permitted to
rccctvo Interest on tho school money In
his hnnds. This matter may como up a
Uttlo later and bo adjusted to tho satisfac
tion of all Interested.
ContiilctliiK the Ceiimm.
Secretary Wntklns of the Commercial club
said yesterday that tho officers of the club
had been Importuned to tako somo part In
tho compiling of tho government census.
An answer had been made, howover, that
tho work was being done by persons In tho
employ of tho United States government nnd
that beyond urging cveryono to see thnt ho
had boon counted no steps would be taken.
Tho club makes the request that every per
son not counted notify Major Wheeler of
Omaha nnd upon receipt of such notlco
blanks to be filled out will bo sent. Secre
tary Watktns has a fow slips which ho will
glvo out to persons who call, but nil ap
plications tor memoranda slips should be
mado direct to Major Wheeler. Unofficially
It Is rumored that up to Saturday night fully
21,000 names had been enrolled. It will take
four or flvo days to complete tho lists, as
In somo districts, cspcclnlly In the board
ing houso portion, tho collection of names
has been very slow.
