The Young Men's Junior Orchestra
had a fine time Sunday at their picnic;
it was a very pleasant day; the music
was fine and all who attended were very

dollars left after paying all expenses,
and this will be an inducement to still
improve in their rendition of the great

A new Indiana variety of com call
ed Cornucopia is said to produce 200
bushels to the acre; one stalk to the
hill produces five to ten well-filled ears.
It is a stout grower, and stalks are two
inches in diameter. The farmers in the
neighborhood, where the seed has been
perfected (Scottsburg) are enthusiastic
over it and believe that it will in time
revolutionize the industry handed down
by the aborigines. What wouldn't that
rariety do in Platte county's rich soil!
J. C. Fillman writes from Chicago,

Illinois is in the ring (corns trifle short),
Indiana a small crop, Michigan fair,
Wisconsin and Minnesota only fair,
there is no state so much talked of as
good old Nebraska's large crop and
prosperity; go where you will, you can
hear Nebraska highly spoken of.
Roy Carter and Corl Jenkins of Nor
folk arrived in the city Monday on their

Miss North has proven that her talent
is much above mediocrity and her train
ing has been most thorough and she haa
besides, the vigor and enthusiasm of
earnest youth, and a charming personal

ceed, right here in Omaha, where she is
so well and favorably known. Woman's

Hans Elliott's team took a notion
Monday evening to "act up" a little, and
one of them got a leg over the pole, when
the trouble began. It was opposite Mr.
Sibbersen's. Hans turned the team, but
in doing so both himself and Mrs. Elliott
were pitched out of the buggy, no spe
cial hurts, except a scratch on the face
for Mr. Elliott. The team seemed to
make straight for Dr. Voes, who was rid
ing horseback opposite Gus. Schroeder's.
He had barely time to get to oue side,
about three feet out of line, when the
team struck a tree, a horse on each side,
the team falling flat, both horses being
lamed in the hind legs and the buggy
somewhat damaged.
Edward Jennings of Central City
has entered complaint against William
Meagher, charging assault with intent
to do great bodily barm. The hearing
was postponed from Monday till Tues
day afternoon at 1. Jennings claims
that the assault was made on him, be
cause he would not give the assailant a
drink of whiskey; that both men were
perfectly sober; that he was stabbed
under the eye and on the nose, the
aBaault being made Sunday morning
about 8 o'clock, in Hughes' lumber yard.
Jennings is 52 years old, a railroad sec
tion hand, and was on his way to Oma
ha. He has been under the care of Dr.
Alger, and while it was at first thought
he might lose the sight of an eye, it is
now supposed he will recover without
serious injury.
Miss Ida Martin received a telegram
Monday offering her a position in the
schools at Trinidad, Colo., which she
decided to accept. This makee-a va
cancy in the eighth grade, which will be
filled by the board probably at their
next meeting, Friday at 4 o'clock. Mies
Martin has been a teacher in our city
schools for a number of years and has
given excellent satisfaction. She has
been active in work outside the school
room, being president of the history
club, a member of the woman's club and
an elocutionist of good ability. Miss
Martin will be missed in the social cir
cles and her friends will all be interested
in her success out west. Miss Lena
Martin will accompany her to keep
house, starting for their new home the
last of the week.
Wednesday evening last Mrs. C. C.
Gray and Mrs. E. H. Chambers, with the
Gray team and carriage, were out driv
ing in the western part of the city, and
when near Mr. Right mi re's the team
scared at a wheelbarrow and started to
run. After going a couple of blocks
Mrs. Gray, understanding Mrs. Cham
bers to advise her to jump out, did so,
receiving some slight bruises. The
team went down Thirteenth street, ev
erybody who saw them being intensely
interested in the result, many following
with teams, bicycles, and on horseback.
At several corners which were tnrned in
the course of their mad run, it was
feared that the carriage would be over
turned, but the fair driver, notwith
standing a six weeks' illness, held the
horses in the middle of the road until
they reached Mrs. Lockhart's place, more
than a mile from where tbey started,
where she succeeded in stopping them.
The militia company had appointed
Saturday evening to go into camp on
W. T. Ernst's farm on the brow of the
bluff just north of town and like true
soldiers they braved the rainy weather
and marched out prepared to eat soaked
hard tack, as the weather would permit.
About 9 o'clock, after the first rain, the
company started on their march of three
miles carrying their rifles over shoulder.
From the farm of B. Ellis to the camp
ing grounds, about two miles, the rain
poured down on them and the mud was
good and deep, taking all mere romance
out of the situation. The tents were
pitched about midnight, and from that
time to 5 the rained poured down in
earnest. Captain Kilian took a 'bus out
early Sunday morning to bring the
"conquering heroes home," but they
wouldn't come; they wanted to drill and
shoot. Two handsome prizes were offer
ed, gold and silver medals, by Col.
Wbitmoyer and Capt. Kilian respective
ly for best marksmanship. Each had
five turns at hitting the target at a
range of 200 yards. The beat possible
marksmanship counted 25 marks. Frank
Krumei got first prize, the gold medal,
with a record of 22 points. Lester Sis
son and Frank Thomas each got 21
points out of 25 and tossed up for the
silver medal, Thomas Winning. Sam
Gasa came next with 20 points. Dr.
Dwight, Charles Segelke, Earl Pearsall,
C. W. Pearsall, Adolph Kurth and
Charles Stillman all got 19 points. The
45-caliber Springfield rifle was used.
Out of the fifty members of the compa
ny, thirty-nine were present at roll calls.
They broke camp Sunday evening,
marching in
- . Bryaa's Hear.
The adherents of William J. Bryan
were well pleased with his reception
here Saturday; with the crowd present,
variously estimated at 1,500 to 5,000
people, and with the speech.
. Beside the usual large number of
faruers and farmers' families who come
to the city on Saturdays, there were
many who made a special trip to see and
to hear the "boy orator" of the presi
dential campaign of 9C, and the pro
posed leader of the silver clans for 1900.
There had been special, non-partisan
meetings held during the week and
various committees appointed to make
the occasion as much of a success as
possible.
A committee met Mr. Bryan at Clarks
on his way here from Grand Island, ar
riving in the city at 12:30.
It had been intended to have the
speaking at the park, but for some
reason this was changed to the middle
of the street between the Thurston hotel
and Pollock & Co's drug store, where a
platform with awning was erected, and
from which Mr. Bryan addressed the
people who sweltered in the suu, whose
heat poured down on them unobstructed
except by a parasol or umbrella, here
and there.
A quartette composed of Mrs. Warren,
Miss Bickly, Mr. Way and Mr. Heine
man, also two brass bands, the Farmer
Boys' of Shell Creek and the American
Swiss of Duncan, added much to the
enjoyment of the afternoon.
Jjfdgj3iiTjp introduced thespeakec
to his audience, and he entertained them
with' the well-known Bryan style of
speaking for nearly an hour, the first
half of his 6peech, however, being styled
by him non-partisan. He didn't like
the personal part of politics. One had
to speud half his time in convincing his
friends that he didn't have wings, and
the other half in proving to his enemies
that he didn't have horns. He touched
upon the Bilver-wheat question by re
ferring the advance in price of wheat to
the shortage of the crop in other
countries, in other words on the prin
ciple of supply and demand. Why sil
ver had gone down, he didn't say, al
though it is doubtless due in great part
to the fact that there is leas and less
demand for silver a3 a circulating
medium and an article of trade.
It was noticeable to Mr. Bryan's old
acquaintances that he seemed ten years
older than two years ago. Ilia "smile,"
however, ia just as young, and his man
ner just as "magnetic," and while it is
doubtless true that no republican was
overwhelmed by his influence, those who
have before taken kindly to hia talk,
were confirmed in their illusions by the
speech of Saturday.
A committee from Fremont met Mr.
Bryan here and escorted him to Fre
mont, where he was to speak the same
afternoon.
Why Thpy Complain.
But there is wide room for complaint
aa to the manner in which the nomina
tion of the ticket was brought about.
Democrats all over the county, if we are
correctly informed, feel that the demo
cratic convention was wrested away
from the party through methods that
were shameful and dishonorable. It ia
well known and not denied that popu
lists all over the county, casting aside
their honor and manhood, appeared at
the democratic primaries and partici
pate tbereiu. voting -ith those who
desired the disruption of the democratic
party in the interest of the populist
party. In some cases pops even stooped
to perjury in order to vote, when, if they
had the faintest conception of honor,
they could not have been induced to do
so. This was not confined to the rank
and tile of the party, but in many in
stances the pop leaders set the dishon
orable example and the privates of the
party followed in droves. We will just
mention one instance: In the First
ward of the city of Columbus, J. S.
Freeman, the biggest and fattest pop in
the county the chairman of the pop
central committee a man who had par
ticipated in the pop primaries and had
been elected as a delegate to the pop
county convention and was such a del
egate at the time, presented himself at
the democratic ward primary, demanded
to and was allowed to vote for delegates
to the democratic convention, and that
vote, thus wrongfully cast, defeated a
delegation of democrats to said conven
tion. In some precincts in the county
there were more pops than democrats
voted at the democratic caucuses or
primaries. What does the reader think
of a convention packed in this manner?
Was it fair? Was it just? Is there any
wonder that democrats express some
unwillingness to abide by a decision
reached in such manner? However, we
only present the facts. Columbus Tel
