that they are given added force and
have direct effect upon the si.nple
understanding, says the Kearney
Hub. This faculty was shown dur
ing the presidential campaign in
the hundreds of speeches made to
all kinds of people and on all kinds
of occasions. In his recent speech
before the international conference
of manufacturers he coined a new
phrase, "the maker

The flags and other war relics of
the Nebraska Second regiment
which were at one time safely stored
in the state house, have disappeared

Way Preiglit, Kunning at a High Kate ot
Speed, Collides "With a Work Train Near
Hudson Junction, Wis. Wreck Canscd
by DIsobcyance of Orders by Trainmen.
Hudson, Wis., June 8. The way
freight on the Cmaha railroad was
coming in at a rate of 18 miles an hour,
when, upon turning a. short curve on a
down grade, it came upon a work train
backing east at a speed of 35 miles an
hour. The collision was something ter
rific. On the rear of the work train
was the boarding car, in which were
four men belonging to the work crew.
They were never aware of their danger
and were undoubtedly instantly killed.
The car took fire and three bodies were
burned in the wreck.
Herman Reby, fireman of the work
train, was also instantly killed, but the
body was recovered. Both engines
were totally wrecked.
The dead:
E. S. Hurd.
Joseph Leigheiser, laborer.
ThOMAS Reilly, laborer.
Milton Swain, laborer.
Herman Beby, fireman.
The first four mentioned are from Eau
Claire, Wis.
Brogan, engineer, head bruised and face
injured.
James Owen, conductor, slightly hurt.
A. Scittlcman, engineer pile driver,
Menominee, "Wis., legs badly bruised, in
ternally injured, will probably die.
Frank Thayer, Altoona, Wis., foreman,
fatally injured internally.
The wreck was caused by the disobey
ance of orders by Engineer James
Owen of the work train and the con
ductor, who were given right of way
to the westbound track. They forgot
their orders and took the eastbound
track and did not discover their crro
until too late. Owen is nearly crazed
and a guard has been placed over him.
The damage is estimated at $60,000.
TWENTY RIDERS ARE HURT.
Serious Accident at a Bicycle Kuco Near
I'assaic, N. J.
New York. June 8. While turning
a sharp corner at tho foot of a steep hill
20 riders in a o-mile road race, near Pas-!
saic, N. J., ran into a big stone, and
every one of the riders was injured aud
every wheel was wrecked, xnat none
v m i
of the riders was killed is extraordinary, j
Sixty 'cyclists had contested. By the (
time the steep hill was reached. 20 riders
were bunched together. They did not
slow up for the hill, but dashed down
at full speed. As they reached the sharp
corner they attempted to turn into the
river road. The momentum was too
great, however, and each man lost con
trol of his wheel. As the leaders went
down amid their wrecked wheels their
followers ran into them amid the wild
est confusion. A cry of horror went up
from the spectators on the hill, and sev
eral of the women fainted. Half a hun
dred men were soon at tho scene of the
accident, and the work of uxtricating
the injured was begun. Sevrrai of the
riders were dragged out unconscious.
George Peddy of Lyndhurst was found
20 feet away half dazed, between piles
of stones, and with a brokeu leg. He
had been among the first to strike the
obstruction. The stone which the lead
ers struck weighed fully 10 tons, and on
all" sides of it lay bleeding aud bruised
riders. Parts of wheels and racing suits
were scattered all around. The men
were soon freed from the wreckage and
assisted to a shed near by, where tho
spectators bound up their wounds.

It happened at a tic when the
streets were crowded with people on
their way to their homes and the street
cars, which pass the front of the build
ing every minute, were densely crowded
with passengers. Tho flying missiles
from the factory struck a number of
people on the cars and one man who
was gazing into a store wiudow fully
400 feet distant had his attention sud
denly attracted to other matters by a
rocket, which struck him squarely in
the back. He fell to the sidewalk un
conscious and was carried to the hos
pital before he was able to give his
name. Tho majority of those injured,
however, received but trifling hurts and
will be around within a day or two.
The loss to the buildings and contents
is estimated at ?G0,000.

VEST IS UNSUCCESSFUL.
Attempts to Place White Pine on the Freo
1.1st.
Washington, Jnne 8. The senate
Monday disposed of the lumber, para
graph, which ha3 been more stubbornly
contested than any other feature of the
bill thus far, by defeating the motion of
Senator Vest to place white pine on the
free list yeas 20, nays 28. The contest
was mainly significant in breaking
party lines which have been maintained
with few exceptions during the early
stages of the debate. On the final vote
eight Democratic senators voted against
Mr. Vest's proposition Messrs. Bacon
and Clay of Georgia, McEnery of Louis
ana, McLauren and Tillman of South
Carolina, Martin of Virginia, Eawlins
of Utah and White of California. On
the other hand Mr. Carter, Republican,
and Messrs. Cannon and Mantle, silver
Republicans, voted for the Vest motion.
Following this a vote to substitute the
Wilson schedule was defeated yeas, 17;
nays, 37, and the schedule was agreed
to as reported.
The debate preceeding the vote was at
times very breezy, owing to the break
of political lines.
A general discussion of the future
program of the bill continued before tho
senate adjourned. It led to a statement
by Mr. Allison in charge of the bill that
the committee probably would submit
amendments to the sacar schedule. For
this reason he announced that the sugar
schedule would bo passed over and the
tobacco schedule taken up.
Democrats Oppose Adjournment.
Washington. June S. Tho house to
day passed the senate bills to amend
the act to authorize the construction of
a steel bridge across the river at St.
Louis, and to authorize the construction
of a bridge across Pearl river, Missis
sippi. By a vote of 131 to 79 it then
adjourned uutii Thursday, the Demo
crats opposing an adjournment; iu the
interest ot the Cuban and bankruptcy
questions.
REPUBLICANS CAUCUS ON TARIFF.
Finance Committee Instructed to Report
a New Sugar Schedule.
Washington, June 9. The Republic
an senatorial, caucus today voted to
stand together on all tho schedules in
1 the tariff bill
The caucus instructed
the finance committee to report
a new
sugar schedule. The new sugar sched
to a11 specihe and on all sugar
' trli is! ltnt rti
which has gono through a process of re
fining 1.95 of a cent per pound duty, in
stead of 1.87oc per pound, as provided
by the house bill.
Molasses testing above 45 degrees and
not above o(J degrees, ;J cents per gallon;
testing 5G degrees and above, G cents per

I Coarse raw sugars from the Philippine
island and Java are to be admitted at.
one-tenth of a cent less than other raw
sugars. The abrogation of the Hawaiian
treaty was discussed, but no conclusion
reached when the cauens adjourned.
Put a Duty on Cotton.
Washington, June 9. By the decis
ive vote of yeas, 42; nays, ID, the senate
Tuesday adopted an amendment to the
tariff bill placing raw cotton, the great
product of the south, ou the dutiab'c
list at 20 per cent ad valorem. It is the
first time in the history of tariff legisla
tion that a duty on cotton has been in
corporated hi a bill.
Tho amendment was proposed by
Bacon (Dein., Ga.) on his individual
responsibility and without the approval
of the finance committee, which thus
far has been requisite to the success of
every amendment except a minor one,
which went through by default. The
amendment led to a spirited debate,
Democratic senators showing a wide
difference of views, and at times ex
changing sharp personal criticism. On
the final vote six Democrats voted with
the Republicans for the Bacou amend
ment, while the negative vote was
solidly Democratic with one exception.
The debate took up most of the day,
and but little progress was made on tho
bill. Early in the day the sugar sched
ule was passed over and the agricul
tural schedule taken up. The. para
graph on cattle went over, but the bal
ance of the agricultural schedule up to
aud including paragraph 228 was agreed
to as reported, all amendments except
that of Mr. Eacon being rejected.
Monies Were Roasted Alive by Kebcls.
Vancouver, June 9. Further inter
views with the officers of the steamer
j Hupeh, now in port, elicit the fact that
25 Catholic monks were roasted by the
; rebels in the Philippine islands and not
by Spanish troops, as previously an
' nouueed. The information was fur
. nished by a prominent resident of Ho
1 Ho, in the group of islands, and corrob
orated by a foreign consul. In conse
quence of cruelties practiced by the
Spanish troops on the rebels or those
suspected of being in sympathy with
the rebel cause, the rebels in revenge
perpetrated acts of cruelty on the hap
less monks who came in their clutches.
The customary modo of roasting suck
ing pigs in the islands is by thrusting a
bamboo through the pig and then fast
ening it to au iron and roasting it over
' a slow fire. This was done to tho monks,
i the bamboo being thrust through them
while they were alive.

London, June 9. The St. James Ga
zetto this afternoon, commenting on tho
dispute between Japan and Hawaii,
which it describes as a "corrupt little
republic, run by a handful of American
fiilibusters," savs: "As Hawaii has
no resisting power, the question arises.
will the United States government see
its protege through its trouble? Tho
Japanese may land an armed party at
any moment. Then what will the
Philadelphia do? Japan, since she
smashed tho Chinese, is believed to bo
spoiling for a fight with a whito power,
and she may find America ready to
oblige her sooner than she expects."
Appeal to America.
New York, Juno 8. A special to Tho
Herald from Havana says: A strong
appeal on behalf of the starving and
dying reconcontrados in Matanzas, who
excited pity in the hearts of General
Lee and Mr. Calhoun, has been made to
the people of the United States. Since
the United States government has bo
gun measures for the relief of its citi
zens in Matanzas, the desperate plight
of tho Cuban rcconcentrados there has
resnlted in a petition, signed by a hun
dred of them, in which they beg that
they may be included in the charity.
Satisfaction at Havana.
Havana, June 7. In political circles
and among the Spanish general public,
where a feeling of acute anxiety had
existed as to the outcome of the cabinet
crisis in Madrid, keen satisfaction is
felt at the news that Senor Canovas has
received fresh proof of coafilence from
tho crown. La Gaceta (tho official
gazette) published the text of the re
forms recently promulgated by the
queen regent in council. Senor Jose

ROUNDING UP THE REDSKINS.
Military Authorities at the Reservation
Gathering in Stray liucks.
Miles City, Mon., Juno 9. Import
ant developments are looked for soon in
the Indian situation. Sheriff Gibb and
party should arrive at the reservation
tomoiTOW. He expects to arrest White
Bull, a distinguished chief of one of the
bauds of Cheycnnes. Chief Whito Bull
has a large baud of followers, who are
willing to obey his command, and if he
does not feel inclined to give himself up
there will bo trouble. Kb reply has
been received from Washington in an
swer to the county attorney's nies?agir
of last evening to Senator Carter, re
questing the military authorities at the
reservation to co-operate with the civil
authorities in making the arrests. Tho
military authorities who havo been
rounding up stray bucks that arc off tho
reservation yesterday found a band of
about 30 Indians near Praton ranch, on
the Rosebud creek, about 30 miles away
from the reservation. Other bands are
still off the reservation. The country
is rough. It is impossible for the sol
diers to cover the whole country. In
the last few years a number of whito
men have be n killed by the Indians.
Many times they have been arrested,
but not a single Indian has paid the
penalty of hanging or imprisonment,
owing to the prosecuting attorney not
being able to get evidence to convict.

POLICE END THE FIGHT.

Stopped In the Seventh Round.
New York, June 10. Peter Maher
nd Tom Sharkey fonght last night at
ill Palace Athletic club for a 15,000
purse. At the end of the seventh round
the police interfered and the coutest re
sulted in a most unsatisfactory draw.
Never in the history of the ring has
there been such an enormous attend'
ance at a boxing bout in this vicinity.
Tne boxing was very tame for five
rounds, neither man showing a mark.
In the sixth round Sharkey with a
well directed straight right on the
mouth sent Peter sprawling half way
through the ropes, where ho struggled
for five seconds before he regained his
feet. As Maher was getting up Shar
key rushed toward him, but was called
back by Choyinski. who was evidently
afraid that the sailor might commit a
foul. Ten seconds later the gong
ended the sixth round and when Maher
returned to his corner he spat out a lot
of blood.
Sharkey's friends, when they saw
this, yelled "first blood for Sharkey,"
and there was a great deal of cheering.
The seventh round was nearly com
pleted when Maher, after getting in
several good blows on Sharkey, sent
Sharkey down near tho ropes with a
right on the wind and a left on the jaw.
Tom was up inside of fivo seconds and
rushed in to a clinch. In this clinch
Maher kept working "his right on tho
body and when tho gong sounded
neither heeded tho warning of tho time
keeper, but kept ou hitting each other.
One of Maher's seconds rushed over and
grabbed Maher. While ho was trying
to pnll tho big fellow away Sharkey
swung his right on his face, dazing him.
By this time tho house was in an up
roar, and there were cries of "foul"
from the partisans of both men.
The din was terifiic, but was increased
tenfold when Inspector McLaughlin
ordered tho police to arrest all thoso
concerned in tho fight. Policemen in
uniform swarmed into ring and a num
ber of detectives climbed the rones.
The principals were the first placed
under arrest and then tho seconds aud
referees were told to accompany the
officers. While all this was going on, I
thousands of spectators were clamoring !
for a decision from the referee, who was '

Glover Will Itccovc
capo In the Darkness
Tragedy at Omaha Story
Omaha, June 10. Patrol
Dan Ticdeman was shot and died
hours later and Patrolman Albert!
Glover was seriously wounded shortly af
ter 3:30 a. m. whilo attempting to place
under arrest threo burglars who had en
tered the saloon of Henry Nelson, cor
ner of Thirtieth and Spaulding streets.
The miscreants who fired the shots suc
ceeded in making good their escape.
Shortly after 3 o'clock a telephone
message was received at tho police sta
tion to the effect that burglars had
gained an entrance to Henry Nelson's
saloon, 2923 Spauldiug street. Tho pa
trol wagon, with Officer Dan Tiedeman
in charge, went at once to the scene.
The wagon drew up in front of the place
and Tiedeman went at once toward tho
back of the building. Midwav of tho
building is a small window which opens
upon a vacant lot. As Tiedeman reached
this point he saw a man's headprotrudo,
and immediately called upon him to sur
render. The man, with an oath, sprang
to tho ground, and was immediately
followed by two others.
Tiedeman called to them to halt, but
instead the first man addressed leveled
a shotgun, which he carried, and fired
point manic at Tieaeinan. 'xno charge
struck him full in tho stomach. The
officer returned tho shot with four from
his own gun, and then sank to the
ground.
Officer Glover, in the meantime, had
passed around the building on the west
side, and camo upon tho men as they
started to make their escape. The man
who had fired the shot at Tiedeman
fired the charge of the other barrel at
Glover, the shot taking effect in his hip.
Glover, however, managed to shoot at
his assailants, and it is thought hit one
of them. A shot was fired by one of
the other men, which took effect in
Glover's nose and eye.
The victims were taken to the hos
pital. Tiedeman was bleeding profuse
ly, and died at 1 o'clock. Officer Glov-
or's wounds are serious, but not fatal.
Both aro men of family.

Chance for More Trouble.
'Jrbana, O., Juno G. TJrbana this
morning is a very different place from
the Urbana of yesterday. The city has
resumed its normal condition, and the
scene is changed entirely. Instead of a
negro dangling from a tree on the most
prominent street corner, the excited
j populace thronging the streets, tho mili
tia and sheriif hiding in tho county jail,
the spectacle of a peaceable communitv,
a fleeing sheriff, a missing captain and
a militia company making themselves
scarce is presented. Nothing is known
of the whereabouts of Sheriff McLean
and Captain Leonard. It is the general
.understanding that the sheriff drove to
Springfield, and nobody outside the cap
tain's circle of immediate friends knows

the militia.
As for the captain, he is condemned for
ordering the soldiers to fire and the boys
of the company for firing into a crowd
of their fellow citizens. After their es
cape from the jail, the members of tho
company navo
not dared show their
faces upon tho street and many of them

the trial of ex-State Treasurer Bartley

onstrated the fact that it will undoubt
edly be a long and very tedious trial.

Judge Hall Overrules the ex-State Aud
itor's Demurrer.
Lixcolx, June 10. District Judge
Hall overruled the demurrer to informa
tion charging Engene Moore, lato stato
auditor, with embezzlement of $23,000
and holds him for trial. Ex-Auditor
Moore was arrested early in the year
when tho shortage was discovered. No
denial of his peculations was made, and
he now sets up the plea that ho cannot
be held as an embezzler, for tho reason
that the parties from who he received
fees should not have paid it to him, but
to the state treasurer as provided by
law. He holds that he is amenable to
the insurance companies only and that
they are still indebted to tho state. It
was this plea that Judge Hall overruled,
but it will act as a defense when tho
case comes up for trial in a few days.
TRY TO BRIBE A BARTLEY JUROR.
Prosecution Alleges a Plot to Defeat tho
Juds of Jnstice.
Ojiaha, Juno 9. Court officials say
that developments in the caso of Joseph
S. Bartley, the ex-state tresaurer.chargcd
in the criminal court of this county with
embezzlement of over $200,000, show
that the most corrupt methods are be
ing employed by certain persons, pre
sumably acting in tho iutercst of Bart
ley, and that a gigantic scheme has been
in operation iu this city which has for
its object the influencing of members of
tho jury panel now on duty in the dis
trict court. It is said to have been
learned from a reliable source that the
people involved in this scheme are men
who have been prominent in state poli
tics for years. A number of these per
sons, who are known, have been in this
city for several days stopping at obscuro
hotels under assumed names, and have
had runners out in all directions.
These facts have been in the posses
sion of tho officers, but the first public
developmeut was made when the time
arrived for commencing the trial of
Bartley in the criminal court. The
eounty attorney filed an information
alleging an attempt to bribe a juror and
Judge Baker instructed the issuance of
a writ against Wright, the man named
by tho prosecutor.
When a woman fin

useless fight and goes to bed to die her
husband wakes up to a realization of his
duties.
Women arc proverbially careless of their
health. They don't like to pay out money
for medicine.
The majority of women have some dis
ease or disorder of the organs distinctly
feminine. Eventually it will drive lliem to
death or insanity unless it is cured. There's
a cure for such things. It is Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription. Don't despair be
cause doctors have failed. Don't think that
a modest woman must be forced to undergo
abhorrent local treatment. She can be
cured right in the perfect privacy of her
own home by that greatest of all great med
icines, Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
Rev. I. J. Coppedge, of Elmo, Kaufman Co.,
Texas, writes : "About six years ago my wife be
came afflicted with displacement, causing inflam
mation and much pain. She could not stand on
her feet or get in any position but what she suffer
ed great pain. Shewas naturally a strougwoman.
Ihad several different physicians to treat herwith-
out an

being well. She saw an advertisement of"

Prescription ' and sooke to
me
about it. I got her a bottle of the media:
licine which
at first seemed to make her worse, but she fouud
it was helping her; so she kept on till she had
taken six bottles. Since taking the last she has
not suffered a moment with the old trouble. She
has been well nearly twelve months."
