A number of our citizens visited Schuyler Friday night to hear young Mr. Bryan, the silver-tongued orator and exponent of pure democracy. All who heard it admit the speech to be brilliant, like meteoric flashes, dazzling, but not convincing. His contortions from tin to silver was a lame attempt to imitate Graver Cleveland, in his acro batic feat to ride two horses going in opposite directions. A democrat re marked, "he is pretty alicked-tongued. I suppose his advocacy of free silver makes him the silver-tongued orator." -- - PEESONAL. I.

The Walter L. Main's circus showed to a full house last evening, the mam moth tent being packed with people. We do not exaggerate when we say the show was equal to that of any circus performance ever given here and a great deal better than the majority of them. Every feature introduced was of that character which stamps it first-class upon first nppearance. The performance was given iu three rings and at times there Avere other features going on ontside of them. The aerial feats were daring and skillfully performed as were many othor acts of daring. Tho Roman Hippodromo part of the entertainment was not only interesting but exciting. It 'consisted of chariot races, barrel and obstacle races, Roman standing races, cowboy and pony races, lady rjders and many other features too numerous to mention. There were plenty of horses and no show can have finer ones, while the menagerie was a splendid exhibit of the animal kingdom. It is also a noticeable feature that thero were no fakes nor robbing schemes permitted on the grounds, while the entire show was clear cut and of a high standard throughout. Everything going to make up the show is entirely new, while the performers were selected from the upper ranks of professional people and they stand second to none. To do still bigger business this show only needs to play return dates. Columbus Sept. Ifith Evening Star, Steubenvillo, O., Apr. 29, 1892. Miss Clary who visited Columbus several days ago in the interest of the opera festival to be held at Omaha some time this fall, has returned to Omaha, and the Bee reports that she has had excellent success. Thero are to be b'ix nights of opera, and season tickets are sold at $1 for each evening or $(!; one person can attend six times, or six per sons one time, three persons two times and so on. Miss Clary is herself a splen did musician and singer, and, we judge, of excellent business ability, her main aim lieing to establish and foster local opera troupes, and provide for the in creasing and growing talent of the country, an opportunity for work. Mrs. Thurber's generous efforts to help ed ucate operatic talent is all well enough, bnt needs to be supplemented by some thing that will provide a field for work. We believe that Miss Clary's plan will do this effectually, and we hop8 to sco her accomplish this, and anything of further good in this line that she may hnve in contemplation. From fine opera to hogs looks like a jump from tho sublime to the ridiculous, but somo one has remarked that every good hog mar ket has eventually become a great center of art. It has been notably true of Cin cinnati and Chicago, and why not of Omaha? Thursday afternoon last at 1:15 an alarm of fire caused considerable excite ment and summoned firemen and others to the northwestern portion of the city where they found the large barn of G. W. Elston to be in a blaze. The fire was first discovered by Mrs. Marvin Elston, who was stopping at G. W's while he and wife were absent at the re union at Grand Island. The barn con tained a span of horses, buggy, harness, 150 bushels of oats, 125 bushels of corn, one nnd a half tons of hay, besides numerous other articles. William Elston, at work at tho creamery, arrived on tho scene in time to release the horses, remove the buggy, harness, and a few other lighter articles, the remain der being consumed. The barn being in close proximity to the dwelling en dangered it, bnt tho valiant work of the firemen and bucket brigade saved it, for which, no doubt, Mr. Elston is very thankful. There was an insurance on the barn of $800, and on the grain $200. Mr. Elston estimates his loss at about $1,600. The origin of tho fire is not known. The People's county convention was held in Humphrey last Tuesday, about tho timo this paper went to press. Hon. WTm. Schelp was nominated by accla mation for representative. I. L.

Irwin of Woodvillo township was recommended to tho float convention, Platte and Nance counties, for float representative, and Fred Jewell of Lost Creek was endorsed for senator in the senatorial district composed of Colfax and Platte.
