When'the St. Louis exposition opens
YaniHlilta will go there , hoping to
secure for a short tlmo oinploymont
In hlu own government's oxhlblt or
elsewhere until ho Is ready to k'uvo
for .lapan.
When Yamshlta descended on Mr.
IJryiin and aunoxod hlmsolf to the
household Mr. llryan demurred , at
tlrst gently , but later strenuously , hut
nothing ho could say or do could
shako the firm determination of the
young JapauoHO.
Mr. Hryan told him that ho should
IIml some place to work and In this
way obtain the means with which to
KO through school. Yamshlta replied
that that was Just what ho wanted
to do , and ns bo had the right of
choice bo bad fixed upon Colonel Dry-
an's bouse an his homo during the
tlmo ho was getting his education.
Mr. and Mrs , Dryan capitulated
gracefully. The young man said that
ho had read imich of what Mr. IJryan
had said and written , anil those words
had Inspired him to educate himself
and become In effect the Dryan of
Japan.
Those wore not the exact words of
Yamshlta , but that was what ho
meant , and as ho could Icaru to bo
the Dryan of Japan only by sitting ut
the feet of the original ho was no
longer resisted. Ills gentle manners
soon made him a household favorite.
Ho was at homo In any of the depart
ments of the domestic work , and ho
faithfully performed every task that
was required of him.
In discussing his llfo work Yatnash-
Itn , said : "Wo fool very grateful to
your people for the chances wo have
had , and shall try to repay you by
trying to make our own country more
than over deserving of the title of
the American of the Orient. Japan
Is on the wave of a great Intellectual
uplift and Is destined to take a more
.iromlnont position In world affairs
hereafter. A knowledge of American
politics and of political economy will
fit our young men for the great op
portunities that will arise. "

The Ice has not yet gone out of the
Northfork above the dam , but a few
more warm days would Btart It. It Is
becoming very rotten and has largo
cracks up and down and across that
will soon causa It to separate nnd

Yesterday was one of those agreeable -
able early spring days when everyone
desired to bo out in the air and near

Is remarried to a man forty Inches
tall. The original Tom was but thir
ty-six Inches high. She Is now sixty-
two years of ago and a woman of per
fect form. She seems as happy as a
lark. For ono year , following the
death of Tom , she was not on the

The Norfolk building season Is preparing -
paring to open with a rush as soon
as the weather will permit , especially
In the residence portion of town. The
prospects are that the season will
open with the greatest actlvlly it has
shown In recent years. Many now
houses were built last season , but
there will bo many more this year If
those that are already planned are
built. Considerable activity has been
shown during the winter , but the pro
bability is that every contractor and
every person who can handle a ham
mer will bo unusually busy during the
open season. Much of the building
will bo In South Norfolk but many
vacant lots In the main part of the
city will bo occupied with residences
and many houses will bo enlarged nnd
repaired before the summer ends.
SUICIDES WITHJARBOLIG ACID
Fremont Man Ends Life In a North
western Freloht Car.
Fremont , Neb , , March 5. Carbolic
acid was the method and a Northwestern -
orn refrigerator car the place chosen
by Douglas W. Edwards , familiarly
known to his friends as "Poto. " in a
successful attempt to end his life yes
terday afternoon. Ho drank the li
quid at 12:55 : and died within half
an hour thereafter. Members of the
Northwestern freight ofilco force wore
attracted to the car by his crloa of
pain and found him writhing on the
floor. They summoned medical aid ,
but It could not save him.
No statement was madeby Ed
wards before his death to show why
he had taken the fatal doao. Ho was
in convulsions when found , and
though ho picked hlmsolf up from the
floor three times , only to stagger and
fall again , ho could say nothing that
waa coherent , The body waa removed
to Bador Broa' . undertaking parlors
to await an Inquest.
That of the Other Day was a
Reminder.
CAME QUICK AND STAYED LONG
No Dodging the Consequences of Early
Blizzards Was Possible When They
C.imo With the Sudden Fury of the
Storm of Wednesday.
[ From Krldiiy'H Daily.1
The sudden fury with which that
norther descended upon Norfolk
Wednesday was n reminder of old
times to Homo of the pioneer settlers
of Norfolk and vicinity , and as ono
of them expressed It , "Had thorobeen
six Inches or a foot of snow on the
ground , It would have boon the real
thing. " People of the present time
accept with considerable Incredulity
these stories of storms In the pioneer
days when a person bad scarcely tlmo
to turn around between sunshine and
storm , mid when one caught out n
llttlo ways from homo might better
ramp right where ho was than to
nook oboltor. The recent storm , how-
vor , was an Indication of how just
ich things could happen.
"I remember well , " said ono of the
° j nrly settlers , "a day Just like this
vs' hen the sun was shining bright and
arm away back In the seventies ,
j had been out lo do my chores and
jh jN ad .found everything lovely , Mother
Mature at her best and only a small
b nnk of cloud In the north to Indicate
a change. Having experienced slid
on changes I bad my bog pen so ar-
n anged that I could slip down a door
i an Instant and shut the animal
; afoly In from the weather. Wo had
ust sat down to breakfast , when
wish , plunk , and wo wore In the
uldst of a terrific blizzard that
trotcbcd out during three long days ,
uid It was on so sudden that I didn't
mvo tlmo to turn around , much loss
ot down the trap that would keep
ny hog comfortable. During the on.-
Ire tlmo 1 could not got to the barn
ir the hog pen. I couldn't have faced
ho wind , and could not have found
ny way there and baclt. The air
was thick with snow and the wind
lowled fearfully just as It did the
itber day. On the third day there
was a llttlo break In the storm and
ny first thought was of the dumb
irutes , and I ventured out to food
them. Reaching the hog pen I found
the Inmate standing out In the en
closure surrounding the pen with his
fore foot on the top rail and bis head
up In the air as though asking for
something to cat. Ho stood there like
a statue with the snow packed tight
around the lower part of his body and
my mental remark was 'dead as a
door nail. ' I gave him a poke to ver
ify the thought and n feeble grunt
came from the supposed carcass. I
lost no time in providing some hot
swill and that hog , in various habili
ments and fixings , adorned my table
for some tlmo afterward. Ho recov
ered and put on the necessary fat be
fore ho actually lost his llfo In quite
another manner.
"A nearby farmer on the second
day of that storm thought ho heard
bis cattle mooing plteously for food
and ho resolved to feed them. Ho
was a vigorous man and bad a strong ,
healthy daughter who said that if her
father was going out to feed she
would go to milk the cows , and they
started , the daughter clinging to the
father's coat tails. They found the
barn and felt around until the door
was located. After attending to the
grateful animals , they started toward
the house In the same manner , the
father leading , but when they reached
the house the daughter was not cling
ing to the coat tails , and the father
turned with a startled cry , hut his
voice was blown back Into his throat.
The mother joined shrilly with the
father In p.n attempt to make the
daughter hear and find the house , but
the wind whipped all the sound out
of their voices. Suddenly the father
thought of a largo cow boll and rang
It out of the door vigorously and the
daughter was directed to the house by
the sound. She failed to hear the
cries of her parents , but the sound of
the boll penetrated the bllzzaard or
she would have boon lost and frozen. "
"Those were fearful storms , I can
toll you and I hope they have retired
from the storm calendar never to re
turn. Certain It Is that wo have not
experienced such blizzards In many
years. "
The amusement in Shakespeare's

GOSPEL MEETINGS.
Services Began In the First Congrega
tional Church Last Night.
[ From Monday'B Dally , ]
Gospel meetings were opened in the
First Congregational church last
evening by llov. M. H. Lyon with n
largo attendance of church people
from all the protcstant denominations
of the city. The services are to bo
union and will continue In the Congre
gational church each evening this

rus choir furnishes the music , and
the llrst mooting gives assurance of
a successful scries of meetings. Pre
vious to coming to Norfolk Rev. Mr.
Lyon was at Crete , the services clos
ing with an evangelists convention
A special to ono of the state papers
says : "llov. H. M. Lyon gave nn ear
nest sermon In the evening on 'The
Mastership of the Lord Jesus. He
said that Christ should bo master of
the kitchen , of the parlor , of the bed
room , of social life , of education , of

church. Mr. Lyon made a profoun.l
Impression and It In earnestly hoped
that ho may come again to Crolo ami
continue the good work. Ho now SOPS

FAVORS A FARMERS' ' INSTITUTE
M. Mihllls Thinks It Would be Good
Thing for the People Here.
Norfolk- , March ! . In reading Dr.
McKlm's very Interesting letter on
arrlcultural topics In The News of
February 19 , I was quite forcibly
,
struck when ho said , "I wish there
could bo a farmers' Institute In Nor
folk this winter. " Well , why could
there not have been ? The reason Is
| that , the farmers do not seem to
take any Interest In anything of the
< liid , and It Is no one's mult init their
wn. It certainly does seem ns
hough thcro ought to bo enough In-
orost among the farmers of this lo-
iiillty to support a rousing farmers'
nstltuto right hero In Norfolk. I
mvo attended nearly every Institute
hat has been bold In Norfolk and I
ivas always surprised to see what
Ittle Interest seems to bo taken by
.bo farmers. Other towns in No-
irnska arc holding very Interesting
uid educational Institutes. At some
ilaees the halls are not largo enough
: o bold the crowds of farmers and
.heir wives and children. I have
noticed also at the Norfolk Institute
that the majority of the fanners pres
ent were not the most successful ones
as far as finances are concerned.
Why Is this ? llecauso they came to
learn of practical men who have been
successful In agricultural pursuits
ami stock raising. There are a great
many farmers who say that they have
mode money farming and do not care
to listen to those book farmers ,
claiming that they know no more
about the business. There never will
bo a successful fanners' institute In
Norfolk until farmers got that notion
out of their heads. As Mr. McKlm
says , "Go to Lincoln and sco what
our great state of Nebraska Is doing
for the agricultural Interests of the
state , and sco the workings and the
way everything is conducted there. "
Then they will , I think , begin to
change their minds and sec the bono'
lit of such an Institution and if they
take their sons along I think they ,
too , will get Interested and there will
not bo so much of a desire to leave
the farm for the overcrowded city.
Hoys are too apt to look upon farm
llfo as degraded and only a life of
drudgery. In a great many instances
It is , but there Is no reason why It
should be. That Is one thing our ag
ricultural colleges are trying to over
come and I say they are a God-send
to this country. Farmers are apt to
lay out too much for a day's work ,
keeping the boys and hired help at
work from early morning until late
at night , from ono week's end to an
other without any recreation. What
boy Is there who would not think it
a hard life and want to get away any
where but on the farm ? Why not
have regular hours to quit work the
same as In any other business ? Of
course there would bo exceptions ,
like last summer when the weather
was rainy and bad , but If there was
such a rule on the farms the hired
men and boys would bo much better
off and all concerned would be hap
pier and more contented.
The farmers always turn out well
If the town people have anything
going on such as amusements and en
tertainments , which are all right in
their place and this would be n dull
world without them , but the Institute
can ho made amusing as well as cdu
eating if wo will all put our should
ers to the wheel and when once
started I think the town people will
got Interested , for I do bollovo at the
institutes that have been held hero
there were more town people than
farmers. In the cast the ladles take
kqulto nn active part. There are always
topics that they are interested In.
The boys who are thinking of leaving
the old farm because they are called
Rubes and Hayseeds when they come
to town are advised to stay by the
farm and to remember that nearly all
ot our greatest men were reared on
the farm. Now all who are In any
way Interested in trying for a farm-
ora' instltuto again are advised to do
a llttlo writing and talking to your
friends and neighbors and wo will
see if wo can sot the ball to rolling
and keep it rolling until something is
accomplished in the way of a good
flourishing Instltuto another winter
in the city of Norfolk.
