Kebnuk News- Bryan's Movement.
Wtmore, Neb., July 29. Coroner
Miller and Dr. Albright of Beatrice
were out yesterday and completed the
inquest over the remains of Maude
Eodus who several days ago died under
mysterious circumstances; The result
of the investigation was to the effect
that death resulted from the taking of
some opiate unknown to them.
Many witnesses were examined and
the home surroundings of the girl in
quired into.
A number of witnesses testified that
the girl had been heard to say she was
afraid of her father, but he was not at
home when she died. One witness saw
Maud one day when she exhibited
bruises on her face which she said her
father made and that he had kicked
her. Another witness told about a con
versation had with Mrs. Eadus as fol
lows: "Why don't you let the girl go; she
is old enough to care for herself?" to
which the reply was:
"She couldn't earn her salt, and no
body would have her; wo wouldn't if
we didn't have to."
Mr Eadus denied having suchacon-
VIOLENT STORM AT EDGAR
Hall atonai Shatter Roof and Shutters
Town Badly Damaged.
Edoab, Neb., July 80. A teiffic
hailstorm devastated a large portion of
this part of the state night before last,
The day had beeen excessively hot,
The thermometer registered a little
more than 100 degrees in the shade,
but the sky was clear and the air wai
atllL There was no indication of a
torm till nearly 10 p. m., when flashes
of lightning could be seen from the
horizon, both east and west. After
awhile a prolonged . roar could ba
heard like continuous, distant thunder.
At 11 o'clock hailstones began falling
as large as hen'B eggs, and in a few
minutes they had increased to two or
three times the size. In fifteen min
utes the roar of the storm was simply
appalling. The loudest thunder could
not be heard above the drafening roar.
All windows on the west sides of
buildings and most of those on the
north side were broken in and rooms
filled with bushels of hail from the
size of a walnut to nearly four inches
in diameter. Shutters were quickly
x roken to pieces and roofs pounded to
splinters. Shade and fruit trees were
nearly denuded of leaves and limbs,
larire and small were torn from the
trees and lay thickly scattered about
the yards. ;
BRYAN QUITE SERENE.
A Solution of the Popallat Complica
tion Predicted,
LixcoLir, Neb., July 29. W. J. Bryan
expresses the utmost confidence that
a solution of the perplexing pondi
tions brought about by the aotioa of
the Ponulist national convention Fri
day and Saturday will be presented
and adopted in due time. Further
than this he declines to talk in rela
tion to the situation. Every inquiry
calculated to fathom his plans er pur-
noses met with the simple response
"I must decline to be interviewed
concerning the St Louis convention
or its results."
"I received." Mr. Bryan said, "an
other rabbit's foot It was sent to me
' by a telegraph operator in Montana.
That makes the sixth rabbit's foot be
sides a treat many four-leaf clovers
and a horse shoe. I wrote the donor
f the last rabbit's foot that while
am not at all superstitious, under the
clrcumitanoes I can but feel that
every condition and necessity to insure
my triumphant election has been se-
eurad axoaot the votes. "
On his return from the Populist con
ventlon Governor Holoomb brought to
Lincoln a cage containing two birds
of the variety denominated love birds,
seat by the Kansas delegation, one
iiatueu fcanaaa and the other c
brook, -.
V HOLCOMB'S FIGURES.
The Nebraska Oovernor Believes That Ike
State la Sure tor Bryaav
Likcolh, Neb., July 29.; Governor
Holoomb said to-dT that he believed
Mr. Prym w?Bld 2P W Populist
nomination, and as Ve nad lately held
a lengthy interview with Mr. Bryan
the governor's opinion is worthy of
weight The muddle over vice presi
dent, he said, would be settled by
fusion in different States, Sewall and
Watson to take their ohances In the
electoral college. In Nebraska there
would certainly be fusion and the fu
sionista would carry the state fle
figured that under normal conditions
there would bo 900,000 votes la Ne
braska this year. He divided these
as follows: Kepublloans, &,000; Pop
ulists, 75,000; all kinds of Democrats,
85.000; Prohibitionists, 6,000. Of tola
vote he believed Bryan would receive
all but 5,000 or 0,000 Demooratlo votes,
all of the Populist votes and a major
ity of the Prohibitionists. He also
fUrured that from 10 to IS U per oent
of the Republicans would bolt M oKia
lay. Ob a recapitulation he believed
that Bryan would reeeive 110,000 ol
to 100,000.
Didn't Know the Town.
Lincoln, Neb., July 29. Ernest Fol
aom is of the opinion that the local
postoffice authorities should inform
themselves on the location of a certain
city. The other day a letter from a
friend in Colorado came to him here.
The friend as a joke had addressed it
to "Bryanstown," Neb. The postal
guides were ransacked for the location
of such a town, but no such name could
be found anywhere. The letter waa
returned to the writer. He enclosed
it to Mr. Folsom with a nice little roast
oa the obtuseness of the Lincoln dis-
5c tors. .... i

ttoaat Instltatloai of Importance.
Waihihtos. July 2 .The mint
bureau of the treasury is in reoeipt of
daily growing mail from all sec
tions of the country devoted to re
quests for information on financial
topics. The questions cover every
conoeivable phase of the cur
rency question and the inquiries
are of all shades of political belief.
Most of them want information that
can be easily furnished, such as
the total amount? of the coinage of
the last fiscal year, the amount of
cold aDd silver in circulation in the
United States or the present value of
the different coins, but many are 01 a
more abstruse nature and would tax
the officials to answer them properly.
The bureau is doing all it caa to meet
the demand upon it as an educational
institution and Director Preston says
that he could easily dispose of 25,000
eoples of the last annual report of his

Two Unlucky Chinese.
Last week a British Columbia logger
sent the cook of bis camp to Douglass,
the British Columbia station Just
across the H e from Blaine, to get an
express package. The Mongolian came
to Douglass, and instead of stopping
there, wandered over the line to the
Great Northern Depot, on this
side, where he sat down. A
zealous deputy marshal spied
him, and after a few questions
found out he bad no papers. So he de
tained him, and according to law the
only thing that could be done was to
deport him to China, although McKee
came down and explained and tried to
have him released to go back and cook.
Sunday the train had Just started
couth with this Mongolian on board,
when some one yelled: "There's an
other one!" Sure enougn, mere .came
another big, fat, wabbly-looking Chi
nese across the line. The train was
stopped lnstanter, and he was ques
tioned. He was on this side of the line
without papers, and the funny part of
it was that he was a cook, who had
been sent from Westminster to take
the other fellow's place as cook in Mc
Kee's logging camp, and, mistaking hta
location, had wandered too far south.
He cried when he knew his predica
ment, but law, as interpreted by the of
ficers, is stern, as well as surprisingly
silly, and he will go back to China
along with No. 1. In the meantime
McKee has no cook. Whatcom Htev-
ellle. .
ANTI-BRYAN MEN.
The Recess ot the Convention Followed
by a Mlddle-of-the-Road Rally.
St. Louis. Ma. July 22. After the
convention took a recess a middle-of-
the-road meeting was announced.
There was at once a rush of delegates
towards the speaker's stand. Mr.
Carter of Georgia acted as chairman.
There were immediate calls for
"Stump" Ashley, but as he began to
speak the band began to play. Angry
men shouted, 'rui ous man uemo-
cr&tlo band." and "Stop that band.'
After awhile the band was hushed,
but by this time Congressman Howard
had got to the front and began mak
ing a speech. He talked long and
loud against the Bryan movement.
He was followed by "Stump" Ashley,
who made another long speech. There
were loud calls for Coxey, but no re
sponses.
Then "Cyclone" Davis made a strong
plea for the preservation of the Popu'
list party, after which an attempt was
made to do some business.
Stump Ashley was then elected
chairman and a number of secretaries
were chosen. It was suggested that
one delegate from each State be
elected to form a permanent middle
of the road committee, but some of the
States did not respond. A partial list
was finally obtained and this to be the
steering committee for the middle of
the road men and act for them, Fu
ture meetings will be held as may be
deemed necessary.

YELLOW 8 TONE PAEK
Is more and more impressing itself
upon the public, as the years go by, as
being the great park of the land. The
strong feature of it is the fact that it is
not a man made park, True enough
man has built roads and bridges and ho
tels in order that he may see the park,
but he has not yet tried his hand at con
structing new-fangled geysers, or re
adorning or resculpturiug the Grand
Canyon of the Yellowstone. These are
as God left them. There, too, the elk,
bear, deer and other animals are not en
closed in wire fences. They wander free
andunfretted whethersoever they will.
Man's handiwork is but little seen and
the park is the grander forit. Send Chas,
S. Fee, Gen. Pass. Agt. Northern Pacific

about the park.
