The state convention of the Nebraska
( Voman's Christian Temperance Union Is
now fully under way at the First Methodist
church , and is attended by about iUJ ! dele
gates.
By means of Jnpanoio parasols and potted
plants and festooning of curds , forming a
long ribbon that ran thioo times around the
gallery of the auditorium , and banners
stationed at various points throughout the
house , the convention room presented a
itriiting and peculiar appearunco
today. The auditorium was divided
Into sections representing the dlstiiets of the
Woman's Christian Tempor.mco Union in the
lute. Hach delegation was assigned u cer
tain number of pows r ml these sections were
designated by c.ird banners abo'ut 10xli
inches in size" with the name of the district
printed upon them.
The president , Mrs. Mary A. Hitchcock of
Fremont : the vice president , Mrs. Caroline
M. Woodard of Smvurd ; the corresponding
secretary , Mrs. Octavia II. Jones of Hast
ings , the let-online secretary , Miss ISlla M.
Watson of Bellwond , and the trcasuier , Mrs.
Mary M. Luntry of Omaha were nil present
and wore roadv for their ofllcial duties.
After the consecration mooting , which bo-
Ban at ! l o'clocK and lasted half an hour , the
regular business of the opening session was
taken tip The secretary load the reports of
rcvcral committee meetings that had been
held during the past iear.
Dr. Dtirycnualn. .
Considerable discussion arose over the
adoption of a resolution passed by the oxeoti-
tlvocommitteo with reforcncu to .something
I ) Uuryea bad been reported to have said.
The executive committee h.is hoard that
fir. Duryoa hud s'lld that the Woman's
ChristianTemperance union had endeavored
to break down the reputation of Omaha by
circulating false reports with regard to elec
tion frauds and outrages nt the polls. The
committee passed the resolution llatly con
tradicting the statement and administering
n scathing robuku to Dr. Duryoa for making
It.
Some of the ladies thought the language
was rather harsh. Others held that If Ur.
Duryca had used the language initiated to
him the resolution passed by the executive
committee should be adopted bv the conven
tion.
tion.Mrs.
Mrs. Clark of Omaha stated that Dr.
Duryca had explained his language in the
newspapers by saying that he had reference
to somoof the prominent Woman's Christian
Temperance union spcaicers who did not re
side in Nebraska. Mrs. Clark thought , how
ever , that the resolution was nil right , and
the executive committee ought to be upheld
in its notion.
"I think wo might pray for Dr. Duryca , "
suggested ono of tno delegates , "that is , if
there are any of us who have grace enough to
co so. "
> "I have , " said ono of the secretaries of the
convention.
The report , resolution and all , were
adopted ,
The minutes of a number of meetings hold
by the executive and other committees were
read and approved.

could not understand the instruction and ro-
ciucsts of the president and .several of tno
Oinuhn ladies had to coach the polite young-
wearers of the queue in the performance of
their work. The bland Mongolians were not
slow , however , in catching the drift of the
business and they became qtiltn proficient in
distributing programmes , envelopes , etc. , be
fore the morning session closed.
The report of the goncinl olllcors' mooting
In July was read by the secretary and
adopted.

Homo of the ladies wanted to re
quest Tin : Dm : and vVorld-Ilorald to
linvo copies of their papers on sale at
tlio church so that the delegates might get
them.
Ono lady said that the convention should
know something about how the papers pro
posed to treat the convention before sending
thorn such a request.
Dr. Merrill was present and assured the
Indies that they need have no fears as to the
correctness and completeness of the reports
that would appear in Tin : Bin : . The Metho
dist , conference just closed had been llborallv

A communication from Mrs. John S.
Briggs of Omaha , ona of the leading lady
of the World's Columbian
managers ox posi
tion , was read. Mrs. Briggs suggested that

cerning the interests of the organization at

cided to glvo Mrs. Briggs an opportunity to

Tim credentials committed reported that
thcro were 110 delegates and twenty-eight
ex-oRleio members present.
The entertainment committee announced
that lunch would bo served at the First
Christian church.
Some amusing remarks were made with
regard to the manner ot handing in names uf
delegates. Misc Hiploy of Kearney said :
"Madam 1'rosidont : I would like to sug
gest that the ladles drop the custom of sign-
lug tltoir pet names when they are conduct
ing business matters In this organization
ho would tiavo mndo himself ridiculous
by calling her Queen Kitty. "
At I o'clock the convention adjourned for

o'clock and the llrst important matter taken
ill ) was the annual address of the president ,
Airs. M. A. Hitchcock of Fremont. MM.
Hitchcock said that the membership had
11,101 In the stato. Shu suggested thnt If
each member would got ono more member
nml an honorary memucr the number could
cosily bo run up to over 10,000.
The president deplored the scorning
negligence of some of the ofllcors and said
that much harm had come to the cause by
the apathy of some who had accepted im
portant positions In the organization.
Bho commended the work done by Mrs. An-
pie F. Newman of Lincoln. Mrs. S. C. V.
Upton had done excellent work , she said , at
the last session of the legislature , but the
power ol corrupt political machinery had de
feated her efforts In getting tin-ouch tno leg
islature the acts sought for by tlio organisa
tion.
"Usoyour Influence , the men say to us , "
eald tlio president. "Wo will time the bal
lot , if you please , and lot you have the lullu-
tfiico. " [ Applause. ]

ald the many fantastic and Immodest styles
ot dross , the gorgeous headgear and other

Fraternal greeting from the Woman's
Homo and Foreign Missionary Society of the
Nebraska Synod of the Lutheran church

Mothers' a
At 2i'0 ! the mother's nioetinp wns con-
dueled by Mrs. Watson 1) ) . .Smith. After
MM. .Smith had read a scripture ic.sson nnd
Mrs. Mary Clument Loavitt hail niTorod
prayer , Mrs. Hev. .1. M. French read n paper
upon. the dangers that threaten the girls of
American homes.
Mrs French thoupht the competent mother
should no tireless In her olTorts to ueop the
girls In the w.iv of rectitude nnd purity. The
lack of industrial training and much excite
ment in pursuit of social pleasures was also n
.soiirco of tlargor. The insidious llcnd known
as the seducer , Was pointed out as the cause
of n va-"t amount of sin nnd .sorrow and
shame. Mrs. French said that it was un
necessary to oxapgcrato the impurities of
men. Tiioy wcro bad enoucli.
Miss Kiploy of Kearney upolco upon the
subject , saying that the youni ; women should
bo thoroughly impressed with the idea thnt
they sl'ould not permit young men to tnko
u ml no personal hhcrttcs with thorn , such as
taking thum by the arm und laying their
hands on their shoulders , etc. She thought
that the girls were considerably to blntno for
the sinftilncss of men. The inon wcro not
thu only sinners on earth by n long deal.
Miss Hiploy was applauded.
Mrs. C ! . II. Webster read n paper upon
"Women's Sphere. " The piper was full of
good points and wns applauded.
Ilillot : a Curo.
Mrs. nicelow of 'Lincoln said that the
vices of society could only bo cured by giv
ing the women the b.Ulot.
Kov. Mrs. Anderson of Omaha asked Mrs.
Higclovv wboio thu outcast woman of society
would bo when the high moral mothers anil
slsturs were marching up to the polls. She
was of the opinion that the vicious outcast
nnd degraded women would bu Jostling the
pure woman In a race to get to the polls.
Mrs. Uigolow answered the question by
saving that there wcro moro good women
than bad ones , nnd thcruforo the balance of
power would bo thrown toward the right.
Kov. Mrs. Andrews said that good women
outnumbered the bad women just as the good
men outnumbered the bad ones.
Half ailo en of the delegates were upon
their foot in an Instant to deny the .statement
thnt there were as many good mon ns good
women in proportion to the number in each
icx. It seemed to bo the opinion ofn number
of the delegates that the men were a rnthor
tough lot. Otio lady said that the bad men
usually cot into office , and if the women had
thu ballot that sort of business would bo
stopped.
Mrs. L'lork nroto and said that she thought
the discussion was drifting clear away from
the topic under consideration.
The question box was then opened.
Save tlio Hoys Too.
Dr. Lnngton was called upon to answer the
question as to whether the same precaution
should bo taken to protect the metals of
hoys as to protect the morals ot the
girls. The lady said that when
she contemplated the temptations and pit
falls that were constantly found in the path
way of the boys , she really wondcrod that
any boy over grow tip to pure manhood. She
thought that the fathers should have their
eyes opened to the terrible temptations that
meet their boys on every hnna , und both
mo hers and fathers should make greater
effort to keep the boys out of the way of evil
contamination.
The question box was well filled and many
important matters were discussed in a very
interesting manner.
Miss Ilornck of the Deaconess Homo
nnd Hospital was introduced and spoke to
the convention.
i'ho reports of the treasurer anil the secre
taries were read and approved.
The session adjourned nt ft o'clock.

tion.

The verbal reports made by the delegates
from the various branch societies showed an
encouraging condition existing in the affairs
of thj woman's sociotv.
The resolution proposed bv the synodical
committee was adopted as follows :
"Koiolvcd , That each auxiliary society
nnd young people's society shall bo limited
to two voting delegates , and that each chil
dren's bind shall bo toproscntca by its super
intendent or leader. "
Following the reports of delegates , came

kamah , the subject being "rompornncc. "

Homo VlHitorH * lOxctirslons ,
The lines of the Western I'assongor asso
ciation resolved not to join the Central Trafllo
association in making reduced rates for homo
visitors' excursions to points In Michigan ,
Indiana nnd Ohio , but ono by ono they nro
mooting competition of outsldo linos. The
object of the western roads In refusing to
join In tnoso excursions was to avoid ilomor-
nlUatlon , The Indicitlons nro thnt they will
have the domoraliratlon without any protlt
as it is now too late to bring the pcoplo out
by an announcement of low rates.
The reduced rates will undoubtedly apply
from the Missouri river , but there Is no
probability of the reduction extending west
of that line , us the trausmlssoiiri association
decided against tlio making of such rates on
the ground that the western association hud
rotusod to adopt them.

will bo held In the spring or fall. That rests
entirely with Ijord Salisbury , and bo will un
doubtedly dissolve parliament when ho con
siders the outlook the most favorable for the
success of Ms psrtv. Homo rule will of
couiso tie the princiiial Issue , and I expect
to see Gladstone returned. The idea is
strengthening with the British pcoplo that
homo rule is not only better for the Irish , but
for the interest of the English people as
well. "
"How about Irish immigration is itdimin-
ishing1 }
"It is , from necessity. Thcro aren't ns
many to come. Wo want to keep our people
at homo. Tha heavy emigration" the past
lew years has been mostly from our young
people , those to whom , had they remained
llieto , wo would have looked for our increase
in population. "
"Uy the wav , this Isn't your lirst visit to
Omaha , Mr. Davittl"
"Ob , no. This is the third time I have
boon here , and I want to say that I see a
surprising change since my llrst visit hero in
IhbO. I was also hero in 1S > S .
The representatives of the Irish pco
plo who have been hero have no
causa to complain of their treatment.
Omaha has done much for Ireland. Your
people have treated us most hospitably and
we have been treated with the utmost fair
ness by the picas of this plionomliml city.
Ves , I luivo jood reason to remember
Omaha , for during a former visit here I lay
llatonmyback for twcnty-ono days , very
sick with n fover. Indeed , it was noiuini !
but the cnioful nursini ; I received nt the
Croigliton house , and the skilllul attention
of the doctor that brought mo through alive.
"I must run down to Lincoln in the mornIng -
Ing and see Mr. John Fitzgerald. I wouldn't
feel right to bo so near him and go back to
Ireland without calling on him. "
"When do you continue your journey i"
"Tomorrow nicht wo leave hero for the
cost. 1 am sorry that I can't say anything
that would bo of interest to Tun BBI : read
ers , but I nm not luclurinir , as I told you be
fore , nor submitting topolitlc.il interviews at
tills tinio. 1 came hero to rest , and have kept
out ot everything like political activity at the
imperative direction of my physicians.
No , I don't suppose I am go
ing buck for another term In jail ,
but I must confess that during the past few
years I have felt sometimes as if I would
rather enjoy a short confinement , though I
don't want another nine years' siege.
"I would have been glad to moot my many
friends hero ' ' ald Mr. Davitt , "and I would
like to no n inombcrctt to them. "
Ho cordially extended his loft hand at
parting , ana the breeze significantly Hut-
tered the empty sleeve upon the other side.
