tPAPILLION. Neb., Oct. 10. ( Special.)
The discovery of the famoSs Chinese gin
seng plant along the Platte river has
created a good deal of interest among the
farmers. At different times during the
last few years this plant has been found,
but was destroyed owing to the belief that
it was a weed. A short time ago a farmer
had 'one of tne plants examined by a
chemist, who at once pronounced It the
genuine sensing. This plant seems .to
thrive well along the bluffs of the Platte
river, In places especially where the trees
and brush have been cut out, which leaves
the ground damp with a thin coating of
sand.

stranger then left on the first train for

People in the western part of the county
are jubilant over the fact that the wagon
bridge across the Platte river will at last

men arrived a few day ago and are now
busy driving pile to replace those washed

of the bridge and Is paying half of the
cost of repair, while Louisville and a few

Destination Is Believed

NEW YORK, Oct 10. Information from
two sources, say a Times dispatch from
Vienna, is to the effect that Russia Is mak
ing extraordinary preparations for the con
tingency of war v.'lth Japan.
A well Informed personage, who waa
lately at Bt Petersburg, says the Russian
military authorities expect the outbreak
of hostilities within the next few weeks.
The whole transcssplan territory, a far a
Samarkland, is seriously crippled as re
gard railway traffic by the large draft
of men and material for the far east.
The Russian troops In tranacaspla arel
alleged to be embittered at the manner in
which their province is neglected In favor
of Manchuria and the Pacific coast.
The Ruslan fleet left Port Arthur Sun

supposed to be Corea. v
Rather War Than Yield.
BERLIN, Oct. 10. The Cologne Gazette
today published a dispatch from St. Peters
burg as follows: '
Russia is not disinclined to accept the
modus vlvendl In the Corean question;
but if Manchuria Is brought Into the
controversy by Japan, Russia would rather
that the dispute come to war than yield
its -claims.
A sign that Russia Is prepared for the
worst Is that the officers' families who
are preparing to go to Port Arthur have
been requested to defer going there before
1904, the ostensible reason being that the
buildings for their accommodation are not
yet completed. Japan ha brought to
gether a mass of troops for purposes other
than mere maneuvering.
Slow Progress la Made.
YOKOHAMA, Oct. 10. The Russo-Japa
nese negotiations at Toklo do not appear
to be progressing rapidly. Baron de
Rothen, the Russian minister, up to this
evening has not replied to Foreign Min
ister Komura's suggestion that Russia
should reconsider its views, which are at
variance with Japan's.
Minister Komura and Premier Katsurla
today conferred with the ministers of war
and of the navy. Komura also visited the
Marquis Yamagata, chief of the council of
field marshals, causing the suggestion In
some quarters that the crisis Is coming to
head.
A petition signed by 40,000 members of
the anti-Russian union protesting against
the Russian action In Manchuria and Corea
ha been presented to the premier.
DOINGS IN LINCOLN SOCIETY
National Convention ot P. B. O. the
Central Attraction for th
Women.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Neb., Oct 10. (Special.)
Lincoln entertained a most notable lot
of women during the week, who were here
attending the supreme chapter of the P.
E. O. society. They came from all parts
of the union' and they represented every
phase of club life and mey brought with
thjm much Information of the growth of
the woman's club movement in the various
states. v 1
The P. E. O., though Its national presi
dent at the time of the convention was a
Nebraska woman. Is Very little known In
the state, simply because It is a secret or
ganization and what good the members are
doing they are not given to talking about
Mr. C. DeWItt Lukena ot St Louis, who Is
well known as a leader In the Missouri
Federation of Women' Clubs, told of the
order and Its objects, but did not tell what
P. E. O. stands for. The order was organ
Ised In 1869 by seven girl students of the
Iowa Wesleysn university, and one of these
girls wrote the constitution, which stands
today. The membership now numbers al
most 10,000. It Is different from other or-,
ganlxatlons of wo.nen In that the accept
ance of a member Is not dependent upon her
husband belonging, to any order, but is
dependent solely upon'tha, qualification, of
the woman. The object of thv -organization,
so Mrs. Luken said, waa the -"(deal
woman."
"And our Ideal woman," she continued,
'1 a woman fully developed In the power
of the Intellect heart and will. To be the
Ideal P. E. O. then Is to be a woman In
telligent, sympathetic and ot perfect self
control. That I what P. E. O. stands for
and call it club or fraternity or what you
may, It Is for this broad and perfect educa
tion that the club exists. The five points
of our star stands to us as truth, love,, pur
ity, Justice, faith. We would live for those
about us and for the good we may do!
The members of the P. E. O. are fed
erated with the Women' club.
They are certainly a business lot of wo
men and the way they get after the busi
ness and cast out everything of the earth
earthy, is certainly a caution. They havo
their press committees and their other com
mittees, and then their pass word. One re
porter on a local paper had an experience
with a member of the press committee
that makea him take off his hat every time
P. E. O. is mentioned. He waa rather late
getting on the grounds and at once braced
the moat likely looking for information.
"Well," she said, "I am awfully sorry,
but we have just given out the informa
tion to another reporter. You are Just a
little too late."
Nearly ail of the session were behind
closed doors and behind the great big
"welcome" over the entrance of the senate
chamber was a little bit of a woman whom
none dared to pass without the proper
credentials. One young married man, who
wanted his wife to come out for a few
minutes, thought he bad learned tha way
to get In, while waiting for her appear
ance. A tidy little woman vent to the
door, gave the regulation tattoo and when
the door was swung open, she gave the
watchwoman a great big kiss and a hug,
and got in without further ado. The ap
pearance of his wife then probably pre-

vented a vacancy In the state house force.
It was voted by the men and everyone
else that the women were all right from
start to finish, however. They had their
little do and they did It well. The doings
of their sessions were never chronicled In
advance, except what the press commit
tee said "print," and never after it hap
pened, either, for the women kept still.
They were a likely lot too, and never be
fore has there been such a display of
beauty and millinery in Lincoln as there
was this week.
St. Luke's church Is to the front this
week with a sensational money-making
scheme thst bids fair to become more
popular than any other church function
that has been tried In these parts. It
Is nothing more nor less than a musical,
with a dance following to work off the
rough edges. The first one was held
Tuesday night at Welsh hall and the pas
tor, the Rev. Fish, was there to lend dig
nity to the occasion. So were a large
number of ycung people and every one of
them endorsed the plan, congratulated
the church people and promised to bring
their friends.
A real reception, at which something to
eat was served, and at which thing were
said to be remembered, was that given
by the Lincoln branch of the National As
sociation of Postofflce Clerks to a number
of business men and their wives. The affair
was held in the court room of the post
office, which was tastefully decorated with
pictures of tho presidents. Congressman
Burkett and others prominent now or here
tofore, palms nnd cut flowers. Congress
man Burkett spoke and so did Postmaster
Sixer, J. E. Miller and Captain C. N.
Bnlrd and A. L. Blxby was given leave to
read a home-made poem.
The occasion was for the purpose of
bringing together for a better understand
ing, patrons and employes of the ofnee,
and the women folks of each was there
to help bring about the good feeling.,
The talk of Captain Baird, who was the
third postmaster this city ever had, was
of the postofflce in the old days. He re
ceived a salary of J300 a year for his work
and he told of the different conditions then
and now and of the great improvements
made in the postal service.
Society editors of local papers have been
busy telling that Rev and Mrs. J. Lewis
Marsh gave a reception to which three hun
dred guests were Invited and at which the
refreshments were served by the . social
committee of AH Saint's church, whuh Is
proof enough that the wbrk was'well done.
The members of the Matinee Mustcale were
entertained the same afternoon by ' Miss
Rose Curtlss. The members of the Epworth
league of the St. Paul church gave a
receptlsn Tuesday evening at the eecutlve
mansion to the out-of-town students of all
the Institutions In the city, which Was at
tended by between 300 and 400. A musical
program was carried out and then the Rev.
Wharton talked. The next night the P. B.
O. visitors were received at the mansion
by a number of the business men and their
wives. At this several talks were made
and much 'music was rendered. The first
meeting of the season of L. A. Kensington
waa held at the home of Mrs. F. E. Camp
bell with all but one member present. Miss
Clara Hammond will be married to Mr.
Hesse Clark McNish at 7:80 o'clock,
Wednesday evening, at the residence of
her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Ham

MRS. MOLINEUX TO REMARRY
Belief in Slonx Falls is thnt Her Next
Hnshand Will Be One ot Her
Attorney.
8IOUX FALLS, 8. D.. Oct 10.-(Speclal.)
The discussion as to whether or not Mr.
Roland B. Mollneux had In reality secured
a South Dakota divorce, as claimed by
herself and her local attorneys,- had an
.Interesting sequel here tonight, when one
of her local attorneys stated that within
the next few weeks it will be demonstrated
to the satisfaction of everybody that the
decree was granted her. In other words,
the attorney admits that Mrs. Mollneux
is preparing to again assume the bonds of
matrimony. Whoever she marries. It is
certain that the marriage will take place
In South Dakota, as this would. In case
of necessity, compel the courts of other
states to recognise the legality -of her di
vorce as well as her remarriage. ,
Notwithstanding denials. It Is still be
lieved here that one of her Sioux Falls
attorneys will lead her to the altar. Dur
ing her residence here, and especially after
she gave up her hotel apartments and en
gaged a cottage, he was almost constantly
in attendance upon her. On several occa
sions he was seen pushing a lawn mower
over her lawn. The attorney recently re
turned from a visit with Mr. Mollneux
In New York, and rumor were In circula
tion here to the effect that they had al
ready been secretly married. This, how
ever, has been denied by the attorney's
closest friends.
The attorney Is now having a handsome
and costly dwelling house erected In the
most aristocratic portion of Sioux Falls, In
which during the time she resided here
Mrs. Mollenux took a deep Interest. In
fact, the arrangement of the rooms, etc.,
is said to be the product of her tasteful
brain. Such being the case. It Is only fair
to supposo that she will occupy it aa th
wife of the attorney.
Goe lader Assnmed Name,
STURGI8, 8. D., Oct. 10. (Special.) The
man who met with an accident here Mon
day night and who has been known her
aa Charles Smith, died yesterday from the
effects of his Injuries. Before death he
gave his name as La Franx. Death was
the result of a wheel of a wagon passing
over his neck. He waa apparently not
much hurt at the time, and remarked that
he would be all right In a week. He got
worse and paralysis set In. It is believed
that the deceased came from either Illinois
or Pennsylvania. Nothing Is known of
his relatives.
