When lie was about i years old he had a seige of scarlet fever which left him partially deaf and weakened mentally. On lop of this al'llic I ion came the death of both par ents, vet in spile of all lhee handicaps be worked and saved every day of his life. Honest and upright in all his dealings, and al though often the victim of "sharks," he always made a good living and each year added something- to his slock of worldly goods. At the age of 7l he still toiled daily, and but for his 1111 ti nely death by gas in a hotel at Plaltsmouth , miurht have lived many years yet and enjoyed the fruits of his labor. What a les son the life of this man should be to all those who become despond ent and yet possess good health, good reasoning1 power, etc. If lite afflicted and early orphan can prosper through life and pass the three-score and ten, we should not worry aboul our children who have no affliction to handicap them through life. Mr. Jordan leaves one brother and many friends to mourn his death. ASSEMBLY RESTS IN SULZER CASE Satesky Will Be First Witness for Governor, it is Understood. SULZER EXPECTED TO TESTIFY Wife Will Attempt to Show, tt Is Said, Husband's Alleged Speculations Con. ducted for Her Account Colwell May Not Be Called. Albany, N. Y., Oct. 2. The assem bly board of managers rested their case in the trial of the impeachment of Governor William Sulzer. Counsel lor the governor will submit several preliminary motions for the court to decice before opening the case for the defense. These disposed of, counsel probably will ask permission to take another adjournment before calling their first witness. This witness, it is said, will be Luis A. Sarecky, the governor's campaign secretary, whom counsel for the impeachment managers failed to put on the stand, although he was un der subpoena. Sarecky indorsed many of the checks given Sulzer in his cam paign which were not reported in his sworn statement of campaign contri butions. Wife Expected to Testify. The governor and Mrs. Sulzer nre oxpected to take the stand before the defense closes. The governor wilt de Tend his failure to report the nurafli ous contributions on the ground that they were personal gifts, it Is believed. Mrs. Sulzer, It is said, will defend his alleged speculative transactions with testimony to show that they were conducted for her account. Sho 13 expected to tell the stcry of the loan she is said to have contracted with the Carnegie Trust company and seek to prove that for the sole purpose of paying the loan, the governor bor rowed money from the stock exchange firm of Harris & Fuller on securities owned by her and did not speculate with the firm. Whether the Ion? missing Frederick I Colwell. the governor's alleged agent in his Wall street transactions, will be called, was a subject of much speculation. His whereabouts have been known to the governor's attor neys, but they have declined to pro duce him unless it was stipulated that he would not be placed under arrest for refusing to obey a subpoena of the Frawley investigating committee. This counsel for the Impeachment man agers said they were powerless to pre vent. SALESMEN WANTED -Earn 100.00 monthly and expenses. Sell cigars, or advertise. Wood- fern Co.. New York, N. Y. mud.
