Women and Flags. The rest of the parade wat just men, women and nags; flags and 1 women and men; and singing thou- ! sands of children; a river ot flags, a thunder of song, a mighty throng of spectators thrilling with patriotic ardor, pride of land and love for the i flag. IThe downtown streets began to take on a parade-day appearance J three hours before the parade i I scheduled to start f All buildings were festive with the ' Stars and Stripes, waving in the ! breeze or draped in graceful folds. Automobiles whizzed about with flags streaming from them or draped over their tops and hoods. Mothers car ried flags, fathers had the flag draped around their bats, children bad little flag parasols. The street railway company was taxed to its capacity to handle the crowds, and many an ancient car was pressed into service. Street Cars Taxed. Soon after noon the cars began to bring great crowds down town. Some were filled with school children who sang "America," "The Star Spangled Banner," and gave their school yells right lustily. Teachers were in charge and mar shalled the "kids." Parochial school children and public school children were nearly ail in their places long before the Menoma men's chorus ar rived, half an hour in advance of the parade, and led them in singing1 pa triotic songs. One Section Late. The public utilities division was fully twenty minutes late, and marched the full course of the parade alone, and nearly a mite behind the main parade. This division was made up of 2,608 men and women by actual count It was through a mistake that they were left behind when the main body marched off. They had been ordered to assemble at a given hour, which was thought to be in plenty of time to get them tacked onto the parade in their proper places, as the ninth division, when they assembled at the given hour, they found that the parade nad moved off with much more facility than anyone had forseen and had in fact passed completely out of sight Thus over half of the divisions had already covered the course of the parade and disbanded before this J great division started. j Notes From Beatrice And Gage County Beatrice, Neb., June 14.

These two factions, or parts of them hoped to join for self-aggrandizement Leaders of these two factions fac tions powerless as entities hoped to join hands, however stained and how ever divided on irreconcilible prin ciples, for insidious purposes of over throwing a third entity, which for the last tour years stood united in a common cause; whose shiboleth is one for all and all for one; equal rights and special privileges to none; whose chief tenet of faith is that America is American and Americana are America. Crucial Hour In History. "This is a crucial hour in the his tory of the world. It is an hour when every man should take stock of him self and his principles. This is an hour when everyone should see whether in his inner consciousness he squares with the ideals of 1776, and the later periods of dramatic eoisode. when this country resolutely main- isinea peace wun nonor. "The democratic nartv in the face of scandalous and vicious attacks has maintained this great American ideal. While for peace it has steadily and surely worked for sound and powerful preparedness. It has maintained a solemn calm dignity in the face of cir cumstances wnicn mignt nave drawn it into the vortex of world destruc tion. Thought villlfied by self-seekers, it has maintained friendly rela tions throughout the world; it has been true to the spirit of America; it haa been true to the great princi- pica m Yvasningion, jenerson, Mad ison and Jackson: it has allowed no selfish interest to blind it to the fun damentals of its faith and the coun try haa found that its confidence has been well bestowed. The democratic nartv has oroven itself a nartv of principle, a party of constructive abil ity, a party of performnace. It -has troven that ideala can be realised. Inked we stand for America.

Hilles' successor as chairman of the republican national committee will be selected in all likelihood at a confer ence here next Monday between Charles E. Hughes, the presidential nominee, VV. Murray Lrane ot Alassa chusetts, chairman of the national subcommittee on organizations, and as many other members of the sub committee as can be present. Among those considered for the place is William H. Hayward, New York City public service commissioner. Arrangements for the conference were made late today bv Mr. Crane. It also was announced that the man ager of the Hughes campaign prob ably will be selected then and that the personnel of the executive com mittee will be discussed. The sub committee is empowered to name the chairman and the executive commit tee. Silent Upon Subject. No announcement concerning the nominees choice for national chair man or campaign manager has been made, and indications are that he will consider names of available candi dates until his meeting with the sub committee. In pursuance of his pol icy of refraininsr from Httruaxinn nf political affairs, Mr. Hughes declined to say tonight whether he had made a tentative choice. Mr. Crane also declined to comment on the situation. in tne meantime Mr. Hughes will continue his informal conferences here with party leaders, and his re ception of old and new friends and supporters. The longest conference he held today was with George W. Wickersham, attorney general in President Taft's cabinet, who will take an active part in the campaign management. Mr. Wickersham ex pects to keep in close touch with the nominee trom now until election day, and probably will be among Mr. nugnes closest advisers. A report that Mr. Wickersham might be cnosen campaign manager was de nied at headquarters. Hughes does to Theater, The nominee went to the theater lumgiu. it was tne tirst evening aiutc ins arrival ncre mat ne had not devoted to work. His present plans provide for his departure from the city over Sunday, his return here Monday to confer with the national subcommittee and his departure Mon day nieht for Providence. P. I where he will remain probably until Thursday. The problem of selecting a summer residence is presenting dif ficulties. It is likely, however, that ne win remain in New York 9tate and will choose a location in the mountains not too remote from this city. Among the nominee's callers this afternoon were Miss Frances A. Kel ler, head of the social service bureau of the progressive party; George B. Agnew, former state senator, and Merwin K. Hart, former assembly man. The two latter callers were joint authors of the Hart-Agnew bill wnicn abolished racing durine Mr. Hughes' administration as governor of New York. George Haven Putnam, a New York democrat who worked for the election of Woodrow Wilson at the Balti more convention, was another caller. He came in resoonse to an invitation from Mr. Hughes after having written the nominee a letter telling him that the paramount issue of the campaign was Americanism.

Hailstorm Causes Enormous Losses In Perkins County Grant, Neb., June 14. (Special.) A hail storm which devasted a large area in this section of the state Mon day night, caused damage which is conservatively estimated at $300,000. The storm, which apparently origi nated a short distance south of Ogal lala, passed southward across Per kins county into Chase county, turned east and then north and again crossed Perkins county into Keith county. The greatest damage seemc to be in the vicinity of Madrid, a few miles east of here. The storm swept over an area about forty miles long and twenty-hve miles wide. Lamb and chickens were killed at several points and window panes were brok en in many ranch houses. 1 lie great est damaRe is to the wheat crop. It is estimated that there were 50,000 acres of gram nearly ready to har vest in the devastated region. Many of the fields are totally ruined and in none of them does the loss seem to be less than 50 per cent. Rumor Roosevelt Is Critically 111 Is Contradicted New York. Tune 14.
