ger, who has been considered a rc'eptlve
candidate, and In the further view that

supremo court and that all precedents hud
to be violated In making this move, the
action Is of statewide Interest,
The convention was well attended. Car
roll Wright presided and delivered a stir
ring republican speech. The usual com
mittees were appointed nnd reported. The
following are tho resolutions reported by
the resolutions committee:
Resolved, That the policy of the rop'il)
Mean party, both In iiatlunnl nnd statu af
fairs, has promoted the honor of the nation
mid the prosperity of all the people: and we
pledge ourselves to carry forworn Its prin
ciples with Increased zeal, conlldeiit of sur
passing in the future the great victories of
the pnst. We commend William MeKliiley,
nresldent of tho t'nlted Slalen. hh the most
accomplished stntcsman and faithful patriot
or. ins lime, nnu cnngrniuinto tne country
upon the Dual establishment of the ilghtrul
authority of tho United States throughout
nil Us territory.
Itesolved, That we earnestly Indorse the
patriotic services of our delegation In con
gress; and we favor the re-election of Sena
tor William II. Allison, the conceded leader
In legislation, and the election of Senator
J, P. Dolllvcr, thu eloquent defender of re
publicanism, by the general assembly to
convene In January.
Itesolved, That the republicans of Folk
county Indorse the cnndldncy of Hon. A. H.
Cummins for governor. We believe his long
nnd efficient service for the party, his ex
haustive knnwipdge of public affairs, his
honesty nnd straightforwardness on all
public questions, his loyalty to the Inter
ests of the people, his pure life and his
superb mnnhood well quality him for the
office of chief executive of Iowa, and we
hereby instruct the delegates to the tiilc
stnte convention to use all honorable mean3
secure his nomination.
Resolved, That the republicans of Polk
county Indorse the candidacy of lion.
Charles A. Ulshop for supreme Judge. His
eminent qualifications for Judicial offlce.
demonstrated In his enreer as n lawyer anil
as ono of the Judges of the district court of

for tho highest Judicial tribunal of tho
state, and we Instruct the dclegntes to the

tlmo hereafter, tho said chairman and
secrctnry shall certify the said list as the
duly accredited delegates and alternates
from this convention to the said state con
vention. Fosters FrlendM Inslntant.
In the primaries where the delegates
were instructed, Mr. Foster had secured
instructions for thirty-eight delegates and
In this list was a majority of the delegates
from one country supervisor district. In
other years the unit of selection has been
the supervisor district and not tho county.
Accordingly a substitute was offered ex
empting that particular supervisor district
from the rule laid down In the resolutions.
Ex-Governor Frank D. Jackson ably sup
ported the substitute and argued that Fos
ter should bo permitted to havo the five
delegates to which ho was entitled under
the rules and precedents. L. Young de
fended the committee report. Tho conven
tion was In the hands of Mr. Cummins'
friends and they passed the committee re
port with great enthusiasm, and Mr. Cum
mins was permitted to name tho delegates
to the state convention.
Tho convention then selected the couMty
ticket. There was a sharp contest on sev
eral of the offices. Tho action of the con
vention today greatly strengthens A. B.
Cummins In his canvass tor the republican
nomination for governor.
This Is the county ticket nominated: Sen
ator, C. C. Dowell; representatives, Emory
English and II. E. Tcachout; treasurer,
John McKay; sheriff, George Mattern; su
perintendent, Z. C. Thornburg. The con

GYPSY PAIR IS MARRIED
I'nlque Celehrnllon nt I '.list Mud
of MoiikIiin Street
llrldKc
Ben .Martin and Mary Gust, gypsies from
the upper Nile country, were married nc
cording to tbo ritual of their tribe Friday
afternoon In the gypsy camp at tho cast
end ot the Douglas street bridge. Since
then there has been feasting and barbaric
revelry. Tho festivities will bo continued
during Sunday, nt which time they will
reach their height, ns Sunday Is a gypsy
holiday. It is known as the Fete Gargla
and seems to have some religious signifi
cance, though Just what tho trtbesunn
either could not or would not disclose. In
reply to questions they nnswered only that
live lambs would bo offered In sacrifice.
For more than a mouth the clans havo
been gathering In the cottonwood grove
near tho Iowa approach of the bridge In
order to celebrate this fete day with the
proper solemnity, and the llttlo colony now
numbers ninety persons. They are there
with their chariots, their painted wagons,
their gaudy tents, their dancing bears,
their monkeys, dogs, horses and children.
The children aro especially strong numer
ically und with their dirty faces nnd hnlf
naked bodies constltuto n picturesque
feature of tho camp. The women aro also
in great numbers. Most of them aro for
tune tellers, as evinced by the great strings
of bends about their necks, their flaming
mantillas nnd their cheap Jewelry. It Is
their fashion to go about with low-necked
gowns and with baro arms nnd feet. Somo
present a dark-eyed type of beauty.
In the middle of the camp Is a little wall
tent, very dirty and tattered, over tho
cntranco of which flutter two flags, one
scarlet and the other white, and both of
silk. This is tho tent of tho bride and
groom.
"Do you see that blue ribbon over tho
flags?" asked ono ot the tribesmen In bis
broken English. "Well, that's for the
United Stntcs."
The ribbon wns scarcely larger than a
shoestring, but It was blue, and so, In the
minds ot the gypsies, was sufficient conces
sion to their adopted country. There was
no gainsaying that there wero Uncle Sam's
colors red, white nnd blue.
In front of the tent was spread a largo
blanket, and about this set all of the older
persons of tho tribe. They wero drinking
beer In celebration of the wedding. In the
middle of the blnnkct was nn enormous
dlshpan full of tho bevcrnge, and on tho
tailboard ot a wagon hard by was a fresh
keg. They drank from tumblers, pitchers,
tin cups, fruit cans, dippers and any other
vessel than came to hand.
Ben Martin, the bridegroom, was pointed
out. Ho says he is 21, but doesn't look to
bo more than 17, being a mere slip of a boy
with a few straggling hulrs on his upper Up,
Ho was born in Buffalo, ho says, but speaks
English very Imperfectly and is unable to
read or write.
"Yes, I was married yesterday after
noon," he said. "We went over to Council
Bluffs, and I took out a license nnd then wo
went to a church and were married by a
priest."
He seemed very anxious to havo It
known that he wns m.irrled according to
Aiuaricar. customs. At first ho would not
admit that the ceremony In St. Peter's
Catholic church had been followed by an
other, wherein the tribe ritual bad been
literally observed, but ho finally stammered
an admission that such had been tho case.
"Is you wife In the tent thero?" was
asked.
"No. I don't know whero she Is," was
the answer. Then bo changed the subject
abruptly, and a moment later asked to be
excused.
A swarthy young gypsy with a black
mustache, named Charlie Stanley, seems
to be the chief of the trlbo. He also spoke
of the ceremony reluctantly.
"My father, Pete Stanley, was tho god
father," he said. "Ben, here, and Mary
stood up, nnd my father ami Steve Jones
stood up alongsldo of thorn, and I was the
control to tbo business, I rend It out ot
a book, and then they wero married."
The neighbors say that thero were "Blgns
of revelry by night" In tho gypsy camp
after the ceremony. Candles, nuts and
fruits wero brought In from tho city in
great quantities, and what could not be
eaten was scattered on the ground In front
of tho bridal tent. Then there was a danco
on the sweotmcatfl which lasted until early
morning, to an nccompanlmont of barbaric
music and shouting.
Tension S)Hleiu I'lcnsem.
Tho pension announcement of the Illinois
Central was the cause of much satisfaction
among tho employes of that road In this
city.
"I tell you," said one, "that makes a
man stick to the road nnd always try to
give the best service. When he knows that
If his service merits continuous employ
ment no will be cared for when ho is too
old to work ho naturally gives bis best
efforts to his employers."
Several of the men employed In the Cen
tral offices here havu been in tho employ
more than the required ten years, but none
of thern aro over tbo required age of 61,
tho earliest that the benefits become mani
fest. On the eastern division, tho older
north and south lines of the Bystom, many
men havo already passod the limit and will
immediately como under tho attention of
the pension bureau.
NEW MUSIC FOR FESTIVAL

Bellstedtl That name stands for popular
music nt popular prices. Following his en
gagement at tho Greater America exposition
In 1S!)9, when the project of nn auditorium
was conceived by Omaha busliuss men, the
Bcllstedt Concert band was secured for the
September musical festival of September,
1900. The energy nnd perseverance infused
Into the entcrprlso by tho business commit
tee In charge and the popularity of the
concerts pioved to be even greater than
even tho most sanguine had anticipated.
When the coming musical fcstlvnl In
Juno wns decided upon about four weeks
ngo It was nlso decided that the Bcllstedt
Concert band should bo secured therefor.
Tho site nt Fifteenth street nnd Capitol
avenue, hcre the. first festival was held,
was nguln secured nnd work on enclosing
the sann was commenced during the Itut
week. All the concessions Inside the
grounds worn let on Thursday evening last
to the Young Women's Christian associa
tion, which will also have tho fence adver
tising. The committee reserved tho pro
grsm privilege alone, which will he en
tirely under Its own direction.
Mr. Bcllstedt wrote to A. Hospo on
Thursday last and In his letter he states
that the following pieces havo como Into
his possession since his last Omaha engage
ment and will nppear on the programs In
June: "Thu Overtures to Saul." a sacred
drama by Bazzlnl; "The Roman Carnlvnl,"
Berlioz; "Leonore, No. 3," Beethoven;
"Egmont," Beethoven; "L'EcInlr," Havely;
"Hachklaengo nus Ossltin," Gadc; "Dragons
Do Vlllnrs." Malllaif, 'Parsifal," Wagner;
"Overture, de Bnllo." Arthur Sullivan. Se
lections from grand operas: "Fnlstaff"
by Verdi, the "Pearl Fishers" by Bkct,
"Monon" by Massenet, and "Tbo Flying
Dutchman" and "Tristan and Isolde" by
Wngncr. From operettas: Czardas, from
"Rltter Pnsmnnn," Strauss; "Florodora,"
Stuart; "San Toy." Jones; "Captain
TheroBBC," Plnnquettc. Divers pieces'
Allegro Marcln, from the symphonic
poem, "Mazcppa," by Liszt; Welngnrt
ner's arrangement ' of Weber's "Invi
tation to Dance;" Nevln's "Good
night;" adagio, from Beethoven's "Grand
Septet," Opus. 20; scene do bollet, from
Gtilraud's "Gretna Green;" ballet, "Egypt
lennc " by Lulglnl; "Hlstolre d' un
Pierrot," by Costa- Intermezzo, "Con
A more." by Beaumont; three dances from
German's Noll Gwyn music; n now Inter
mcz.o by the composer of the popular
"Salome," entitled "Hnldp." The great
success of Brahm's Hungarian dance last
year has Induced Mr. Bcllstedt to procure
flvo more of these fnmous pieces, which are
sure to become favorites at the coming
Juno festival.
Mr, Bellstcdt concludes his letter ns fol
lows: "As for myself, I want to say that
n desire to work has captured me since It
became a settled fact of our visit to Omaha
In Juno, nnd quite n number of new pieces
and arrangements will bo the result. I
nm now going to work on 'In the Gnrdcn'
and n serenade from Ooldmark's 'Rural
Wedding' symphony. Just nt this moment,
before closing this letter, I hnve received
two moro new pieces, vorspcll to the fairy
opera, 'Hansel nnd Orctel,' by Hurapcrdlnk,
nnd tho prelude to the third act In
'Kunlhlld,' n grand opera by Klstler. I
will nlso bring this time the ballet music tn
'Austin,' an opera by Helnrlch Maschncr,
whoso descendants resldo in Omaha, nnd
which will bo of special Interest, as It Ib
very pretty."
Numerous committees have been engaged
In selling twenty-ticket hooks nt nnd
they havo all had the moat flattering suc
cess. Single tickets of admission during
the festival will bp 3." cents each, anil book
purchasers in advance will thereby Bavo 10
cents on each ticket.
Ante Room Echoes.
Considerable local Interest centers around
tho meeting of the grand lodge of tho An
cient Order of United Workmen of the
stnto of Nebraska, which will conveno at
Nebraska City, Tuesday, May 14, for tho
reason that at this meeting tho question
of the location of the grnnd lodge hend
quarters will bo settled for a considerable
length of tlmo at least. Nebraska Work
men nro going through the experience of
those of older stntcs, nnd no doubt tho ques
tion of tho location of tho grand lodge
headqunrters will be settled here, as In the
larger number of other states whore tlie
matter has como up. The case of Mlnne
uota Is In point. Tho grand lodge of that
stnte formerly met first In one town and
then In nnothei. Tho expense of removing
tho grnnd lodge papers from headquarters
to the meeting place was considerable and
tho lodge finally decided to hold all grand
lodge meetings nt headquarters. It was
then seen that many of tho delegates to
the grand lodge combined their buslnss
and lodge work, so that when they attended
grand lodge sessions they purchased goods
for their retail stores and other thing
which they could only secure in n large
city. For this reason the headquarters
were located In Minneapolis. Now the grand
lodge of Minnesota Is considering tho ques
tion of holding the annual sessions nt tho
tlmo tho retail merchants visit the whole
sale districts to purchase their spring
goods. It 1s said that this policy wl I re
sult In getting a better class of Indr '"'I
egntes nnd In saving a large sum of
to tho individual members, who wit " o
their orders for goods In the tow" nere
tho grand lorigo Is located.
Omnha will send seventy-five delegates
to tho grand lodge nt Nebraska City and
ovory man Is pledged to work night and
day to bring tho headquarters Omaha.
Tho membero of tho order In the , lty have
adopted a plan lo usslst both tho grand
lodge nnd city and will submit a proposi
tion to the stato body which It believe!
will bo accepted, ns It requires hut a small
expenditure of money on tho part of the
grand lodge.
In pursuance of this plan there will be
a special meeting of tbo stockholders of
the 'Ancient Order of United Workmen
Temple company nt the hall Tuesdny even
ing, at which Important matters will be
discussed. At the same tlmo and place
there will bo a meeting of the delegates
to the grnnd lodge, nt which tho final
plans for rapturing the grand lodge head
quartors will be adopted. Tho delegates

MAJOR WILCOX HAS A RIVAL
Lincoln Mnn Aspires to He Stnte Com
mander of the Cm ml
Army.
From Lincoln comes a story to the effect
thnt Major R. S, Wilcox Is not to hnve n
walk-away for tho position of stnte com
mander of the Grand Army of the Republic,
at the election of officers of that organiza
tion, which will he held at the stato en
campment at Plnttsmouth next Tuesduy,
A practice has grown up In the order,
which now nmounts to nn unwritten law,
that tho senior vice commander shall bo
advanced to the highest position, nnd thero
was no question of the selection of Major
Wilcox until tho last meeting of Farragut
post ot Lincoln last week. At that meet
ing C. H. Gould, a member of tho post, was
nominated for the office of commander and
n resolution lutrodiicced In tho post.
Instructing Its delegates to' vote for
Gould's election. The resolution failed of
passago for tho reason that there Is a
member of the post who aspires to tho
position of Junior vlco commander, and
thero were not cnoug friends of cither party
present to forco tho passago of a resolu
tion In favor ofclther candidate. It U
not believed that "tho opposition from Lin
coln will ho sufficient to overthrow prece
dent, and It Is believed that Major Wilcox
will bo elevated ono degree. There Is onn
thing which will operate against him, and
that Is his resolution not to announce tho
name of the man whom ho will appoint as
adjutant general of tho department. It Is
customary for the candidates for depart
ment commander, at least In Nebraska, to
make this announcement before tho elec
tlo, but Major Wilcox says that ho will
not determine upon his oincer until after
the election nnd will then select the best
man among the nppllcants. Ho says, how
over, that he hollovcs tho place should go
to r Lincoln man, ns the office Is main
tained at Lincoln, whero tho stnte pro
vides a room rent freo to the organization.
Tho retiring commander, John Reese of
Broken Bow, will recommond Hint tho
offices of adjutant general nnd that of quar
termaster general be combined nnd It In
believed that tho recommendation will bo
concurred In, as this action will snvo 200
a year to the society.
Thero Is nothing beyond routine matter
slated for the consideration ot tho enenmp
mont nt its coming meeting, but tho chnngo
In tho place of holding tho national reunion,
from Denver to Cleveland, may bo consid
ered, as thero has been considerable objec
tion In tho stato to tbo action ot the na
tional commander.
Tuesday evening tho Woman's Relief
corps of tho stnto will hold a rernptlon for
tho delegates to the statu encampment nnd
Wednesday morning tho veterans will visit
the local schools nf Plattsmouth. Tito first
session of tho encampment will bo held
Wednesday at 2 o'clock and Iho scsslmu
will continue until the work Is done.
