F'WICIC FlVIt OlCNTS A mlseut letter moved Prof. Hessoy of the State University tho other day to sny thnt tlioiroier abbreviation for Nebraska was Nebr. Instead of Neb. Jinny persons In writing hurriedly and when doesn't a busi ness man address an envelope in haste f make n letter b that may easily bo mistaken for a v. If you will just try It ouco you will sou how easily it may lie done, and then you will understand how a letter addrn-sed to n place in Nebrasko may bu sent to Nevada. This In only a trifling matter, but life In made up of trine. Havo men good tastel A , bright girl was moved a few days ngo to nay they did not, and a we were overlooking a tenuis court she undertook to give an occular proof of her projiosltioii. She iwlnted out a young man whoso shirt, trousers, blazer and rap were of four different coloni. She asserted that It displayed an utter lack of taste, and I was not prepared to disprove it, but when she pointed t another player with a suit having one color dominant throughout, and held it up as an example of how taste might be dis played, of course I claimed it as an argument against her, for here was a young man who by her own admission had exercised good taste. But these women are Ingenious crea tures, and she Insisted that this young man was the exception to the general rule. Then Nhe olnted to some girl playerB whoso tennis suits were prettily attractive. I argued that being pretty was a trilling concern with the average man, that his tennis suit were bought In sections, very often with reference to some other use, that he generally bought parts of it ready made, that he would usual ly make u selection from whatever hapiiened to be ou hand in his favorite store Histoid or shopping, and in short that he had the scorn of a suiwrior being for a fellow who tried to get himself up pretty. She Insisted that that proved ber case, because if men had taste they would take a little pains to exercise It, She thought a man might learn to have a sense for harmony of color without being a sissy-man. 1 maintained a man might have taste with out showing it in the tennis court. Hlie in stanced men who displayed tuste, but said It had been acquired. I admitted that the sense for harmony In color was dormant In many men, but that their taste only needed cultivating, and so we gradually reached the conclusion that the truth lay about midway between tho extreme propositions with which we started. And as wo considered the mat ter farther we came to the conclusion that u greut many uwlots uud often bitter urgu ineuts were begun over ultra-positive state ments when tho opposing disputants were not so very wide apart in their ideas, and then tho query followed: Why bo so ioltive in afsertlng things about which there may be honest differences of opinion What an enormous waste of words and temper It would save If wo were n little more thought full The French have no word for homo and the Japanese none for klsstrs. What a queer thing that Is to us. Most of us, probably, have read those fool articles pretending to set forth u system of llirtatlon signals to lo carried on with a fun or u handkerchief or n parasol, but the greatest bit of tomfoolery is the stuff preach ed by a new apostle esthetic who teaches that ii woman's gown should be a sort of u direc tory of her emotions or condition?, The holy and dignified state of matrimony, for exam ple, should find expression in a black gar ment, while love, its precursor, too often on ly its precursor, should lie robed In n gar ment upon which the torch of Hymen starts from ioppl( s In crimson and gold, symboli cal of love's hypnotism. Health, he says, should wear a gown of Nile green, with a border of lotus (lowers. Life should be garb ed in white crepe, with silver antiime trac eries. Death should be gloi tiled in garments wherein the golden light of the sun and the silver sheen of the moonbeams mingle in the mysterious symbol of death. Fancy scold ing a woman gotten up Itrsuch occult, murk ily mystio things, about the coal bill, or ask ing her where in thunder she put your col lars and clean stockings. It Is said that lawli tennis Is declining In popularity among women in the east. The fact is that the game, among experts, Is now played at too furious a rate to be a pleasure for any who are not experts. The game has become so scientillcthat one who plays but little hasn't much chance for distinction and robbed of that ambition what is there in any sjort or game! When tennis was first taken up it was played for recroution,physioul and social, but now it has become a game for ex perts, who pine for the glory of winning laurels. Women cannot keep up without be ing ungraceful, disarranging drajieries and overheating themselves. The natural con sequence Is that they are dropping the game, and the buds are dlscouragod from taking it up. Happily we have not reached that stage of development. V The CouiUKii is a firm believer In the prop osition that the American girl is the sweetest and most adorable product of the nineteenth century, and It takes a just pride In show lug her superiority by every available compari son with the foreign article. A writer in one of tho magazines descrlltes "A Swiss Boarding School." Of course lie makes com parisons, and they are Mattering to our pride. He found that there was in the girls them selves none of that intellectual interest which we find among bright American girls who are pursuing classical studies together. They had among themselves no such eagerness of conversation; they did not appear to discus the problems or life or to feel personally ana werable for their solution; and as compared with a set either of clever or of fashionable girls they seemed very young for tlwlr years, though In some Instance very bright, anil In i uti Interesting wny. We swear by our girls overy tlmo. What peculiar ideas eastern people have of thewestl Is it merely Ignorance or a mix lure of Ignorance and prejudice! A LI ncoln gentleman wits' entertaining a group of friend yesterday with a few illustrations that had fallen to his lot to exHrlence. He was talking with nu Intelligent New Knghiud banker about our water supply and luipieii cd to mention the former trouble with salt water. "Well, you can get good wnter from tho mountains, can't youf asked this Yankee. "Y-o-s, wee-o-u-ld," answered tho Lin- colnito with Just a shade of doubt In his tone. "I notlcethat I'arls is talking nlxnit get ting its supply from some mountain In France, and they proMse to go three hund red miles for it," and there was a suggestion of awe In the down caster's air when he men tioned the distance. "Well, If we can't beat the French by two hundred miles we'll quit," promptly respond ed our representative with true western con fidence. "You don't mean to ray," broke out the Yankee, with eyes opened wide with sur prise, "that you are five hundred miles from the Rocklesl" "It is that distance to the nearest foot hills." "Why, I thought Lincoln was out near Denver." "So it is," assented the man who measured distances In western fashion, "but it is as far from Denver as from Chicago." This statement gave the New Englander another shock. It seemed incredible to bin. "You really don't mean to insist that It is a thousand miles from Chicago to Denver " "Yes, sir-rce. If you don't believe it look It up. You probably have a Burlington or a Hock Island folder about the otllce, and if it doesn't give the distance you can figure it out by the time It takes a train to cover It. Oh, we are a Rreat country out there." In another instance this Lincoln gentle man had some bonds to sell. He called asu man who was making Investments of that kind and asked if he ever bought western bonds. Well, yes, he had once, but only once. His maimer lietraycd that he had doubts about the safety of investing in west ern securities, as though they came from a foreign country, but his slugle venture had turned out all right. Tho Lincolnite asked where the bunds were Issued. The easterner named a city in Ohio. That was his Idea of "the wet." The delegates' to the national editorial con vention who were fortunate enough to tuku thejexcurslon to West Superior were afforded a most interesting time. Not the least of tho many treat was a visit to tho whalt-back ships under peculiarly favorable conditions. These vessels are of an exceedingly novel construction and it is possible they may rev olutionize the shipping of the world. It is therefore u memory worth preserving by the excursionists that they saw the new Industry in its very infancy. These ships are u htgu steel shell with the top rounded like the back of a whale whence tho name and very little above hoard but a turret. They have an Immense carrying capacity, and they are said to weather heavy seas better than ordi nary crafts. It wiua notable coincidence that about the time tho editors were examin ing tin works and hearing tho luventor'H pre dictions, the first whalebuck to cross tlio ocean was just going into port at I.lveipool. More notable still was the fact that sho started from West Siqierlor with a load of 1KI UJO bushels of w heat, sailing down the hikes, through the Zoo canal, around Niugaru Fall by way of tho Welluud canal and down the St Lawrence to the Atlantic. It is the first trip of the kind ever made and may rev olutionize commerce. It means uu enormous saving in the transportation of freight from western American grain fields to Livei'(iool, which regulates the prices of the world uud it may build up a market at West Hurlor that will rival Chicago's. Seaklug of the Soo canal at thuSuult Ste. Marie between Lake Superior and Lake Hu ron, how many people know that it sees morn traffic than the Suez canal which figures so much in the talk of tho world! Last year .'KW'.l vesels passed through the Suez. The Soo was open but 2.8 days and passed 1(),.V7 vesels. And the tonnage of our canal exceed ed that of the Suez by about SI per cent. Oh, we are a great people, so great in. names of our enterprises that we do not realize it until we compare figures. Next week is the Forepaugh shows, but not the once famous aggregation that formerly went through the country advertised us Fore Miugh's circus. It is not tho good olden time circus, and not like the one that the famous showman presented. Mr. Ed. Friend, travel iug for the Shtss, Ox & Co., of Chicago, speaking of what he saw 'at the circus in Omaha recently, said: "It's nothing like the show Forepaugh used to give us. 1 heard that the show was 'bum' but seeing the glar ing pictures of tho lion race thought I'd go. Well, I saw it, and like hundreds of other people, kicked myself afterward for going. The lions are sickly looking, the cage in which they race (I) fell down and several other accidents occarred during the perform ance. It's the snidest big show 1 ever saw." Tins Couhieh gives the above for the benefit of its readers at what It is worth. Ayers Harsaparilla is justly considered the only sure seclflo for blood disorders. Au Able I'liyslclsm, Dr, Dennis for several years pist a resi dent practitioner at Des Moines has romoveU to Lincoln and 0ened handsome quarters In tho SUite block over the First National Bunk. The doctor makes u sieclalty of catarrh, eyv, ear and throat troubles, and lieing a pleasant gentleman with ample knowledge ami prac tice in his profession, will doubtless build up a large and profitable patronage In a ihort time, Till; HhlTAOC I V PHP VC i;i ul,i M'-IUllO 111 j3 flOM;, The editorial convention nt St. I'aul was a wonder. It was wonderful from almost every olnt of view As nu assembly of representa tive quill drivers and publishers it hns never had uu equal anywhere; ns an Intellectual convention the good accomplished fur stir (Missed any former assembly of n similar na ture, and in membership it had the largest attendance ever given any editorial gathel ing As a collection of the various fields of Ameri can Journalism and as in the extent of terri tory represented, It embodied men and women representing every class of tiowspu jsr work, and from every state and ten Itory in the union. As for patriotism the vener able 0, A. It. at Detiolt this week could not have shown more love and resH-ct for the ling than did the sorlU's. The beautiful Grand opera house was licdcckcd from stage to "nigger heaven," and from parquet to dome with America's favorite colors, and any reference made to the (lag at any time, Is) It of the smallest order, would Ite receivAl with storms of applause. In fact the nssoelas tlou is the owner of n Iwautlful Hag with which It was presented by a distinguished Parisian several years ago, and a special cus tiMllan Is annually apomtcd to take charge of the trophy. The good people of St. I'aul, kind, gener ous and blghearted that they are, made the days of the convention a series of unalloyed pleasures. For the business meetings every KMwlble comfort anil convenience was pro vided and for each moment of leisure there was some program of royal entertainment arranged. And so it was that In every re-sHM-t the seventh annual National Editorial Convention was deemed the most wonderful meeting that this great and influential Ixsly lias ever held. The business meetings were characterized with all that could result ill the most good to the largest number. Most editorial meetings In the past have lieeu statu .sl as lieing junketing tours, lots of fun and little beneficial woik, other than a good time. The late convention, be it said with credit to President Stephens ami the commit tee, was not one of that kind. A liner pro gram could not have been arranged and so well carried out. If all future conventions are us ubly conducted and can produce such fruits as the one just closed, one mid all may well teel satisfied that tho association is fully currying out its great wot k as mapped out when organized In u most comtmmihihlo spirit. The iwqwrs read before that body weie cleverly selected and the persons on tho program to present them were of national repute and more than met tho anticipation of the lurge audiences. There did iiotnpeu- to be an empty honor in any of tho uddresses or that too often times waste of time in wrang ling over minor and unimportant matters. It was a thorough business assembly and every moment was devoted to some purKso and the result was as above stated. If any delegate failed to get his or her share of the benefits thrived by others, it was either that they could not be present or did not care to improve tlioopMrtunlty offered, I am happy to say, however, that these were few, as at each session, Is-ith morning and afternoon, there was generally a large audience. As a president, Mr. Stephens makes a most excel lent otllcer, and lx it said to his credit, the association never bad a letter executive. If his successor will only give equal satisfaction, then certainly the association is to be con gratulated. A gentleman with more friends, a harder worker for n desired end, nu officer better posted in parliamentary tactics and a gentleman that can better control as large n convention as the seventh annual whs, It will ho dilllcult to find, Mr Stephens' rulings were ah ays decisive anil prompt and there mis favoritism shown to no one. The feel ings between memtersaud executive could in no manner have lieeu mole fully exemplified than at the final festivities at Hotel Lafay ette, Ijiko Miimetouka, on the eve of tho de parture of the delegates. Mr. Jones of New Orleans, on Imhutf of the association, made u lreeututlou speech that was full of feeling mid timely eloquent remarks, the response by the president being no less brilliant and eulogistic, only causing additional admiration for the able retiring officer The entertainment received lit the hands of St. Puul citizens was such as no delegate will ever forget. Kind and considerate, each de tall was no ably arranged that at every turn willing hands were always present to assist In showing proper St. Paul hospitality. From tho time of arrival to tho farewell greet lug each delegate was in the hands of their friends. The reception committee, met the delegatus at the train and kept them well ill sight until they again boarded the trains homeward bound. There was somo particu lar event booked for each evening, and dur ing the afternoons those that preferred to go junketing with the fair sex would always find some attractive program on hand. The convention orguuized Tuesday morn ing mid in tho afternoon the visitors were shown the city in a delightful carriage drive. The city is beautifully laid out, and from the higher portions in several localities, a hand some picture greets the eye. It was a long and Imposing line of vehicles, and everyone seemed to enjoy the sights even more than the drive; the latter, however, lielug one of comfort and much pleasure, tho atmosphere even adding to the enjoyment of the after noon. Among the various excursions were the following; Wednesday to White Bear Lake, where refreshments were served and a sail duly enjoyed. This beautiful resort is about fifteen miles out, on the St. I'aul & Duluth railway. It is a delightful s)iot, having a large pavilion where theatrical jierforniauces are given and dancing is indulged In, together with other seasonable pastimes. The lake is a beautiful body of water und Is very popular with St. I'aul people. Boat contests at fre quent Intervals through the season are great attractions. Ou another occasion the hlstorio Fort Snelllng and Minnehaha Falls, both on the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. I'aul railway, were visited. The ride is a delightful one and is both picturesque and instructive. The fort does not compare with most of our mod eru clay military posts, and rather disap pointed tho visitors in K)int of beauty and late improvements. At the falls was another disappointment. So much had been heard ' cf Mluuehahn, and so uiaiiy pretty pictures had In-oii seen of it. besides what lonufel ow hail said, that pel haps too much was ex , KcliM. l ins rails wei quite ineiigm ns the water was very low, and consequently mine of the visitors heard Minnie ha-ha I Friday noon the convention closed and the largest exclusion of (hii week, comprising sixteen coaches, started for Luke Mlnuetonka, via the (Irvat Northern lull way, arriving there nlsnit I o'clock. The paity Immediately honided two large steamers In waiting for n trip around the large group or small hikes. It was n delightful ride, during which many attractive landscapes were ws-n, and a con tinual panorama of beautiful scenery with gieenswaiil anil foliage forming n most pleas ing scene. At seven the party returned and were lauded near the mammoth Hotel bifay ette, wheru tho closing hospitalities-n fine banquet (mentioned above) took place, over eight hundred being seated In the large dining hall. It was a slghlof splendor and a feast of toothsome giKslles,lu which all hands took n lively Interest. At midnight the ex cursionists re wired to the train for St. I'aul, mid hofiiro tho sainted city was again reached nearly all had Intel changed good byes and farewells with the hos that they might sen eachother again next year, mid that the 'ltt convention would lie as profitable and pleas nut ns the one Just closed, L.

In those days of rapid advancement hi mer chuutlle pursuits few houst-s come to the front in a brier time and In fact fewer are they that ever get to the front at all. Times have lat'ti depressed ami credit have been ts cheap. Musingly thutly, the writer cannot help making comparison to show what good management, ample capital, and studied en terprise will do. Comparatively a shoit tlmo ago the Kllpatrlck-Kooli Dry Goods Co., oened a store In tills city, coming In as entire strangers without friend or foe, Their rapid stride In a limited time has leeu noticed by many and Is us wonderful as it has Issju growing und successful, Starting In with a well assorted stock In the large double store In the new Coffmuii block on O street near Fifteenth, they made a specialty of dry goods, boots, shoes and groceries, Tno locat ion, it was thought would tw a drawback but this, it has been proven was eroueous and today the firm does the cleanest and most profitable business in its Hue. The firm is one or the strongest in the entire western country and being extensive wholesale job-la-rs In Omaha have unoqualed facilities for placing goods here to particular advantage and thereby being able to offer them nt such prices as will move them. The management of the Lincoln store is liberal and constantly (lushing, no store in the Capital City en Joying a larger circle of friends than the Kil-patrlck-Koch company. Pleasant treat ment and square dealing always wins every where and in this, combined with tho iuer lor advantages that the firm has in buying and selling gixsls, lies the secret of their suc cess. Such houses are a credit to any city and Tin: Coukikh trusts the successful oper ations of the company will continue here after. All meals nt Odell's new dining hall re duced to twenty cents. No credit mid no tickets to anyone. The meals are same as formerly and the price lower than ever. This makes the board at Odell's cheap and the Is-st in the state for the money. Au Able Successor.
