THE NORFOLK ttEWS : FRIDAY , MARCH 25 , 1901 , ' UOIIBRTBON'S WITHDRAWAL. It wlll bo wltn deep rcgre that the mnny friends 'of W. M. Robertson ol this city will hear of his dotormlna tlon to withdraw his name from the political field as an aspirant for the gubernatorial nomination on the re publican ticket. Convinced as they are of his excellent fitness for that position or any ether high ofllco In the gift of the people of Nebraska , It Is to bo deplored that at this time there Is a sentiment in the stnto that appears to bo advqrso to giving the nomination and the ofllco to ono BC well qualified in every respect. Mr. Robertson withstood repeated urglnga to enter the race until it was represented to him that the require' montB of the party demanded that ho subordinate- his personal prefer ences and announce- himself for the position. Since the announcement was made , events have so shaped themselves that Mr. Robertson , the peer of anyone whoso name has ever boon mentioned In connection with the ofllce , fools that there IB now but ono thing loft to do and that Is to wnounco to his friends that his lame will not bo considered by the toming convention that Is to place Uio ticket In "tho Held. Since his name was broughl out during the convention of two years ago , Mr. Rob ertson's circle of political friends has extended wonderfully nnd in every part of the state there arc those who would delight In espousing his cause In connection w th any ofllco in the gift of the state. Unfor tunately , in this particular contest , many of them feel that their duty lies In another direction. They are sub jected to the dictates of party prece dent 'to ' the extent that , they 'feel compelled to ignore , the claims of * a statesman , a thorough good "fellow nnd a sure winner If nominated , that the second term idea of the party and the impresslo'n that two men coming from the same locality should not bo advanced to office on succeeding years. If only the matter of qualification was to be considered ; if men and measures were the essentials to the nomination , Judge Robertson would have been secure in declaring him self for the ofllce and ho would have a backing that would include practi cally the entire party , but other con siderations intervened and it has been considered best by Mr. Robert son and his intimate friends that ho declare his withdrawal. In doing so his friends will not concede that he has lost any rights to be recognized as one of the ablest men of the day In Nebraska and will expect that some dcy he will bo placed In a po sition where his statesmanship , his Impressive dignity , his keen insight into men and affairs , his brilliant ar- gumentive powers , his political wis dom and his gentlemanly bearing will yet be employed to the credit of his state , tlio honor of hla party and the gratification of his constituents. The members of the Ancient Order of United Workmen and of the aux iliary order , the Degree of Honor , of Nebraska are just now feeling very clever in that Nebraska is the ban ner jurisdiction in point of member ship in both orders. In the A. 0. U. W. there are forty-one grand lodges - . , of the supreme jurisdiction , and Ne- I braska , with 37,415 members leads them all. Kansas has for a number of years held the lead but the energy of Grand Master Jaskalek of Omaha and his efficient force of deputies and l tho- hustling membership has crowd- 1 ed Nebraska to first place and it Is j proposed to hold it against all com- v ors. During the past year the order , V < in this state has paid out to benefl- claries-of-deceased members nearly I1 a half million dollars "ami ( lie'ofd'er u is showing a remarkablegrowth.

Of the Degree of Honor there are twenty-two juris dictions , of which Nebraska leads in point of membership ! The auxiliary order has held the honors for some time , but Minnesota has recently been an active competitor and has fought long and earnestly for the place. Mrs. Mary A.

A NIGHT WITH NICODEMU ! Regeneration Is the Theme That En gages Attention of Vast Audience. After a spirited song service led by Mr. Coultcs and his choir assisted by organ , piano , trombone and euphonl urn , Mr. Lyon took for his text , lasl night , the worda of Jesus to Ntco dcmus : "Yo must bo born again. ' Ono night on ono of the rivers ol Germany during ono of the Napoleon Ic wars the emperors of Franco nnd Russia mot In conference to change the may of Europe. A far greater conference was held on a night 2000 years ago between Jesus and Nlcodo- mus for this conference resulted in changing the faces and characters ol countless thousands of i vt ] > lo. It was not a chance meeting , Between Jesua nnd Nlcodcmus but a divine ar rangement. Nlcodomua was an educated > ucated man but education Is not sal vation. Ho vsas a moral man but morality is not salvation. IIo was an Influential man but it availed not in the court of heaven. IIo must bo born again. What Is regeneration ? It is not reformation. A man may reform and still bo lost in soul. It IB not joining the church. All the rites , ceremonies nnd forms of all the churches In Christendom cannot save a man , but a saved man will na turally turn to the church as a duck takes to water. It is not learning or culture. Wo are dead In trespasses and sin and you can't cultnro a dead man. Mr. Lyon spoke very sarcastic ally of those whoso culture is only a veneer. Regeneration is not to bo explained but experienced. Tlio word of God docs not explain it. Don't try to haov another's experience. Regen eration is not a matter of feeling but of accepting nnd confessing Christ. The prayer meeting for this after noon was announced and a big meet ing for women only has been arranged for Thursday afternoon at the Meth odist church. Tonight the subject Is "Tho Sufficiency of Grace. " Mrs. Kimball of Pierce was in the city this morning doing some t-ad- ing. Someone who said it had been a pleasant Maich , forgot to rap on wood. Mrs. Kathleen Richardson is in the city from her home at Meadow Grove. Mrs. Richardson is suffering from neuralgia and is In tlio city for treat ment. J. II. Sexton , who has been re moved from the Queen City hotel to the Norfolk sanitarium , was icport- ed to be not quite so well yesterday. The oldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Ed. Benning is very sick with lung fever at the home of his parents at the cor ner of Madison avenue and Eighth street Mrs. L. B. Mnsselman wont to Creighton at noon , where as deputy grand matron she will have charge of the work in the Eastern Star lodge at that place tonight. Mrs. E. E. Kennard and little son of Omaha and Mrs. L. C. Hurford and son Archie of David City are here for a two-weeks' visit at the home of their parents. Mr. and Mrs. L. B. Musselman. The Wednesday club met at the home of Mrs , George D. ButterAeld yesterday afternoon for the last meet ing of the year. Mrs. Bntterfleld was reelected president , Mrs. C. H. Rey nolds vice president and Mrs. A. Bear secretary and treasurer. Norfolk has in C. R. D.

He has just completed a stage for an O'Neill firm that appearns to 1)0 In every way as excellent n ve hicle as though It was turned out In some of the larger factories of the east. This morning he took the body of the wagon to the Junction where it will be painted and trimmed up in shape for shipment. During a portion tion of the winter it has been builJ- Ing in the small shop west of the Pa cific hotel , and the wood and lion work are now about completed It will comfortably seat about a dozen people and will be. used by the O'tlelll firm in some of their long drives. fMiss \ Georgia Harper In Camllle. i' If anybody went to see Georgia Harper just on account of her ward robe , which is , no doubt , the envy of the ladles , there was evident disap pointment , because- her marked abil ity aa an actress is so much admired by the audience that dress is forgot ten. In Camlllo the struggle between love and duty , portrayed by her , touched the hearts of all. The same scones In real life , and they occur , could not by any possibility bo more potent nnd absolute to the eye of the beholder than was the imitation pro duced by this talented woman. The support is all good , the company being ono of the best that has ever boon here , presenting the legitimate drama in a clear way. Miss Harper has 'many costly gowns , but wo are happy In the thought that It wasn't altogeth er the gowns that captured the audi ence this time.

Chasing over the country nt tlu rate of llfty or sixty miles nn horn with great clouds of dust scurrying and eddying along before It thoBoutli wind today gave tlio neat housohoop ors and the cleanly merchants ot Norfolk something to think nhoitl , The effect of the shower of the ether night was quickly obliterated nnd the particles of dust nnd dirt wore put 'in circulation in n manner that tltu ordinary doors and wlndowH could not exclude from the ri'flldoncos and store buildings the annoying accum ulation of dirt. The wind commenced doing business early In the morning and Increased In vigor during the day until it had generated ono of the worst storms of the sonson , nnd made out of door life anything but n plea sure and got Into the eyes and the breathing apparatus of the podositil- aim in a manner that was highly dis pleasing. The wind Is Balling Into n lower Imromotorlo ptossuro to the north and the weather bureau promises that It Is coming down this way with showers and colder weather for to morrow. It Is n genuine March condi tion nnd the only excusable part of the transaction is that the wjnd is warmer than usual and carries an agioeahlo spring temperature which may , however , bo given a serious nnd radical setback.
