SIOUX CITY HAS CASE OF STAGE FRIGHT t Loeal Team Pile t Twelve Koa fcy Third laalag and Th Let Dovta tk Bars far the Visiter. five thousand people paid their hard earned little two and four-bit pieces to see the game between Omaha and Bloux City team of the Western league at the Vin ton Street (round yesterday afternoon and got a look-In on a good deal of foose ball. Companion wa on the slab for the home team. Companion, he of the mighty south paw; Companion, the man with the won droua hoo(. who held the terrlfla slug- g r from Bt. Joe down to on run and , eleven hit for seventeen tnnlnas of a i a d k . . . ! .cent.nc a game oi d..i a. ever was p.ayea in umana, waa pounaea ail over trie lot Dy the Bloux City trailers for A total of sev enteen bases. The only comforting thing about It was that Cadwalader, who wa In the bo for the visitors, pleched a little more tike a hired man than Companion did and thus the home team won out by bunching hit In the third Inning. Dur ing this time at bat Omaha made seven Ingles for a total of eight runs, being helped to this aggregate by an error, a wild pitch, a couple of base on ball and a few other thing too numerous to men tion. The home tam also made one In. the first by virtue of a pass given to Car ter, a sacrifice by Howard and a pretty single by Welch. In thelf half of the sec ond three runs more wss the verdict, due to th generally sloppy playing -of the vis itor and two tingles via the Carter-Howard route. After the third Ilourke' pets failed to peep and devoted their attention exclusively to clinging On t5 what they al ready had. Th Busies didn't make a run until after that to them fatal third. Inning. When that slaughter wa done and the marks of . carnage wiped away, they went to the table and held a council of war, which re sulted In Hess going to the bench, Kelly belng pulled In from shortstop to take his plaoe, Llndaman boing sent from the bench to left field and Fremer being railed from left to short. The team was seized by th stag fright. It was not until the fifth that Comoanlon began to slip and before the Boos were done batting In their half the nice, pretty hslo that his seventeen-lnnlng game had riven him had e-ot a hhr amnnph The i made two singles, two doubles ahd three runs. In the sixth and seventh they kept fter him, making two more runs in each, and topped off with one more In the eighth. In their Inst time a bst they got three men on bases by three passes from Com panion. After that the dope wore off a lltla and the game ended. Today, which Is women's dsy. with all the attendant music and red lemonade, the braves from up th river will try It again. Attendance, 8.C00. The score: OMAHA'.' ' A.B. . R. IB. P.O. A.

Cortelyou, and In addition he soon dls. playtd ability as an oreanlzer, which made his services Invaluable. It was not surpris ing, therefore, that Mr. Cleveland should urge his retention in ofnee upon Mr. Mc Klnley In ths very strongest terms. Mr. Cleveland never asked Mr. Cortelyou what his political affiliations had been or were. He had entered the public service through the machinery of the Civil Service com mission, and his advancement has provsd one of the very strongest arguments for the maintenance of the merit system as opposed to tha old doctrine of "to the Victors belong the spoils." , Bis Success a am Organiser, Mr. Cortelyou's loyalty to Mr. McKlnley and ths value of his services to the execu tive head of the govtrnmeut are roeut history and are too well known to be re told. When, however, hi name wa first auggested In connection with the secretary ship of the new Department of Commerce and Labor a storm of protest arose among members of congress from New York. These gentlemen, among them some of the very closest personal friends of the preslr dent, iimuu.d that It would mean political ruin to give a cabinet place to a man ut terly unknown to the politician of the tat to which he la accredited a a clti an. vBut Mr. Cortelyou was nominated, confirmed and Installed a secretary bf Commerce and Labor, He set about the diillcult task of organising the new depart ment und he succeeded so well that he very soon gained the support of the very men who had antagonist him to ths de gree Of preventing the passage of the bill or eating the department, for nearly ytaf. It Is admitted today that no executive de partment of the government It batter es tablished than that over which Mr. Cor telyou presides. It was because he ha demonstrated hit aooompllshments as an organizer that he was selected for th chairmanship of the national committee. Vtiia Bfaa with a Bl Salary.

Before reaching Alliance the announce; nient was made, "Ten min ites for lunch." Most of the passengers alighted for rest If not for refreshments, and a young woman, whose destination wss Crawford, net a friend with her year-old baby, who Was on her way to Shorldan, Wyo. The cars, where the two ladles were temporarily lo cated being adjoining ones, the kind young woman to give the worn mother a short time for herself, and the baby a chunge, brought the baby to the car where she was sitting upon their return to the train. After some half hour the young woman started to the next . car, to return hor charge, but was astonished, In fact dumb founded, after searching the train through, to be :nformed the car containing the mother had been switched oft to Section 1, bound for Sheridan, while she and the baby Were on Section 2, which went to Dead wood, S. D. The conductor told the young woman that Section 2, would, without doubt. Over, take Section 1 at supper as the tracks did not diverge until they left Edgcmont, S. D. ; but the young woman was only going as for as Crawford, a ride of about two hours and would the conductor himself take care of the baby the rest of the way? By this time the passengers were all discussing the one subject and all were in terested, the men muking suggestions and the women, (each and every one going as far as Edgemont) offering to care lor the baby. The bright, smlllng-faced girl baby was the only unconcerned one, and throughout the whole affair was perfectly happy, en Joying the care and attention- she was re ceiving. r When the train reached Crawford the first thing seen oh the platform was the bareheaded mother standing with oul- CLUVER DOCTOR Cared a ao-Year Trouble Without Any Medieine. y A wise Indiana physician cured twenty years' stomach disease without any medi cine, as his patient tells: "I had stomach trouble for 20 years; triad allopathic medicines, patent medicine and all the simple remedies ruggested by my friends, but grew worse all the time. "Finally a doctor who is the most prom inent physician In this part of the state told me medicine would do me no good, only irritating my stomach and making It worse that I must look to diet and quit drinking coffee. "I cried out in alarm: 'Quit drinking coffee! Why, what will I drink ?' " 'Try Postum,' said the doctor. 'I drink It and you will like It when It is mad. according to directions, with cream, for It Is delicious and has none of the bad effects coffee has.' "Well, that was two yean ago and I am still drinking Postum. My stomach Is right gain and I. know the doctor hit the nail on the head when he decided coffee wa th caui of all my trouble.

Either by the kindness of railroad offi cial or some other reason not known, Sec tion 1 was held at Crawford until the excited mother reached her wn seat with her baby, vowing no one would ever take her away again on a train. No doubt tha kind young woman thought. If she did not say, she would know more about trains before she tried to help another mother.

BRYAN PREPARES A SPEECH Propotsa to Bt a Fig-art in. Ctmoontio National Convention HOPES Ta REPEAT HIS CHICAGO f EAT Not Yet Decided Whether He Will Bolt If the Convention Doe Not Go to HI Liking. CHICAGO, May 22. What Is Bryan going to do? Until coming west I thought he was getting ready to bolt th St. Louis can didate and platform, says Charles M. Pep per In a special sent to his paper. That Is still a reasonable opinion, but I have been told here that he has not yet reached that point. What Bryan Is preparing for now Is to make a big spech at the St. Louis convention. When It falls on deaf ear the bolt may com, but It Is charac teristic of th sliver leader s supreme con fidence that he doesn't recognise that he will find his party unmoved by his elo quence. " One of th men who hao Mr. Bryan's friendship and who in measure enjoys his confidence, Informed me that every thing still was In the dark. He had met Bryan when the latter came to Chicago to make the anti-Parker speech, and at the end of a friendly talk had been unable to make up his mind what wa to happen. By a proces of reasoning he had satis fied himself that there was only one thing In view, and that this wa a bolt. But nothing Mr. Bryan sold Justified him In making such a prediction. This man, who Is not a politician, had been with Mr. Bryan during the campaign of 1886 and afterward. He Is one of those who would follow the Nebraskan out of any party or Into any party. He changed his politic tn 1608 purely out of personal admiration. It was from this talk that I felt the 1 first doubt about Bryan's deliberate in tentions to jump the feiioe. But when he mentioned the silver leader's plans for a great speech It waa possible to see how Mr. Bryan himself was still Withholding the bolt. What he expects to talk about Is the platform. That always hat been his favorte text. In the early struggle with Sterling Morton in Nebraska Bryan al ways talked platform. When the Cleveland Influence thrtw him out of the democratic state convention he was talking th same subjeot. Later, when he got control and crushed the gold democrats, it was all on a matter of platform. In ttie Chicago con vention It may be recalled by those who were there 'that the speech which gave Bryan the nomination was on the platform. The combination of democratic senators and ex-republican senators who were using Bryan to kill oft Bland thought that some talking about the various planks would be a good way to lead up to the nomination of Teller. But after Bryan's speech they wished they had not been so enthuslaatlo about alleged principles. Always Talks Platform. Mr. Bryan told me during bis campaign in 1896, when he dlsplaytd such astonish ing powers of endurance and of adapting himself to different Audiences, that if I would notice hi speeches he always had platform In them. He said that in hi first campaign for congress, when he gained the experience which served him to such pur poss later, he never made a cross-roads ad dress without making clear his platform He thought Major McKlnley a very good Man, and used to pretend to wonder how such a good man could aland on such a platform. That, of course, was a trick of campaign speaking, but It showed the bent of Bryan's mind. ' Now that he is anticipating making an other great oratorical effort In the St. Louts convention, It la not hard to see how he will turn to the platform for his text. " I have been assured by those who think they know his purpose that he is not worried about' the prospective organisation of the convention against him. He knows that he cannot be denied A hearing, and when once that is granted he looks forward to a triumph, against which carefully prear ranged plans will not avail. Some signs seem to show that ha la right A disinterested observer has to note that Bryan still maintains a fair degree of popularity with one element of his party. This has been dtmomlrated in the Hearst meetings. The paid lecturers who have been working on Mr. Hearst's boom, have had evidences of this popularity. Their general plan, presumably under instruct tlons . from headquarters, has been the old one of speaking well of all the candidates, while building the pyramid, with their, own man at the apex. In some sections they have had to leave out Qrover Cleveland, but never Bryan. The result has been that the artificial enthusiasm for - Mr. Hearst has evaporated, and the genuine article has been manifested for Mr. Bryan. I heard of two or three instances In which this has happened, and was curious enough to make further Inquiries. In every case it was admitted that the same thing had been observed. Now, Bryan knows all about these Hearst meetings and what takes place In them. He knows that his own name Is still the one to conjure with in the masses of the party who have a leaning for so cialism. Having information about these demonstrations. It is more than likely that he overestimates his popular strsngth when matched against the growing senti ment of the democrats that they must get together and win and enjoy ths offices. Will Appeal to Sonth. There are some Indications that In his speech at St. Louis Mr. Bryan Intends to appeal particularly to the south. He al ways has been friendly to that section. While denouncing the mythical plutocrats for their alleged oppression of the labor vote, Mr. Bryan Invariably accepted with philosophical romplacency the suppression of ths negro vote. It waa not tor him and he found no trouble In putting himself In the atmosphere of those who justified nul lifying the amendments to the constitution. While at Lincoln during the campaign of 1S96 I was shown soms of the editorial he had written favoring the nomination of a southern man for president. Tha( waa be fore he fully perceived the disorganised conditions which were to make his own candidacy possible. It ts obsracterlstle of Mr. Brysn's san guine temperament that he does cot yet realise the change In the south. From all I have heard here he still thinks that the southern delegates to St. Louis will be swayed by his eloquence. My own opinion would be that this Is much more likely to happen with some of the western delega tions than with the southern ones. But Mr. Bryan thinks hs knows the south, and he may be right, Seemingly In preparing for another great oenventlon speech he makes no allowance for the change In clr cumstar.res. His oratory was effective at Chicago tn ISO because the majority of that convention were In full sympathy with him and his Idea and his platform. He rode the whirlwind better than Bland, who was a very sincere man without emotional char acteristics. There-was some gocd oratory on tha part of ths minority, but it counted for nothing in the cyclone. Good Opinion of Self. Mr. Bryan thinks that be Is a greater orator than Bourke Cockran and many peo ple agree with him. Mr. Cockran was very eloquent at Chicago In 1884, yet his elo quence directed against Mr. Cleveland's nomination was futile when addressed to the combination of dcltgatee which W. C. Whitney had made. At Chicago In 1892 In that memorable night session It was even more powerful and torrential, again pro testing against Cleveland's nomination, but It was Tammany thunder wasted, for no votes were changed. Recalling these Incidents, I asked one of Mr. Bryan's western admirers if ht thought there really was any chance of breaking the line which would surround Bryan at St. Louis. He answered that there was, that Bryan would be thunder ing eloquence for a principle, while on both occasion t Bourke Cockran had been merely voicing personal opposition to a candidate. He reminded me that the Tammany orator had argued only ngnlnst Cleveland's sup posed lack of vote-getting qualities and had pleaded tor a more 'available candidate. But with Bryan the whole pica would be for principles, that is to say, for a platform. Senator Qity Is Keatleaa. BEAVER, Pa., May 23 Senator M. 8.
