These travelers were taken In hand by the committee of Tangier temple and enter tained until the tlmo came for their leaving over the Rock Island and Union Pacific ton the west. Syrian temple of Cincinnati came In at 2:15 : on a special over the Northwestern , running west as the first section of No. 1 on the Union Pacific , the train having four sleepers and a baggage car.

Mr. Mellsh , talking about his chances of election , stated that the fight would be a hot one , but thought his chances of elec tion wore very bright. He laid claim to sixty-one delegates , as against fifty-nine for Imperial Potentate Hud'on , and with a possible defection In the ranks of the Cali fornia delegation , thought he would have a walkover. He was In excellent spirits and spoke of the Northwestern service In glowIng - Ing terms. But the day reached Its zenith when the nobility of Zurah temple of the Flour City ( Minneapolis ) came in over the Rock Island. A large delegation of Tangier tem ple was present at the depot to escort the delegation to the Millard hotel , where quar ters had been providsd for them , and the parade put up by the MinneapolltaYis at tracted great attention. All the members of Xurah "wore uniforms of white 'flannel , double breasted sack co'ats , white pants and cap with "Zurah" in old English text and rod letters on front of the cap. They wore ties of th3 sarno color and carried canes of the same make , and were the nattiest lot of men ever seen on the streets of the Ne braska metropolis. And what a sensation they will create In Denver , for they march like veterans and have a shrine yell which Is "Zu-Zu-Zu ! Rah-Tlah-Rah ! Zu Itah ! Minneapolis ! " The personnel of thedelega- tlon Is as follows : Drill Corps Captain A. M. Shuey com manding , E. Uossman , J. A. Mclntosh , A. A. Keith , C. R. Coolcy , A. Cunnnlngham , Frsd Davis , N.

Then for { hose who desired deeper draughts there were punch bowls , presided over by dusty sons of the dcserti and thoss went not begging , but wore surrounded during the day by the thirsty bedouins. "SONG OF- THE SHRINE. " After moistening 'their throats the quartet of the delegation , Emmett Browning , first toner ; William Heath , second tenor ; F. II. Forbes , first bass , and J. M , Hoot , second bass , sang the songs of their native land to the admiration of hundreds who heard them , and ono song they sang , "Tho Song of the Shrine , " written by Mr. Browning , and composed by Captain Shuoy , was a "corker. " You are earnestly requested. Now that you have been divested , To be loyal to the stnunchest craft afloat ; And when you're reinvested You become more Interested And stick tighter to the old Masonic goat. At first you are suspicions , . But you find It quite nutritious , And your appetite grows stronger all the time. You say It Is delicious And you're feeling quite fellclous.

Hark ! hear the signet fall , While you twang the doodle , doodle duml TIs the song the Shrlners sing Ami thu song that Is the thing. If I live to sen another day A Shrlner I will be. But the audlenco was not satisfied with this effort , and for half an hour the best male quartet In Minnesota made the corri dors of the hotel ring with their songs. At 7 o'clock the boys from Minneapolis , to gether with the delegations from Sioux Falls and Sioux City , left over the Rock Island , the special train of four sleepers , one com bination car and ono coach being In charge of Assistant General Passenger Agent S.

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Aspirants for PcBtmswtcrshlp All Torn Up Over Late Ruinorj , REPORT THAT MORTON HAS DECIDED IT Slgninninco or Deluding tlio Appointment Until After the Holding of tlio State Contention A lltmh.iml I.oclioil c Up-Magic City Gossip. The gentlemen who are applicants for the postofflco In South Omaha are of the opinion that something will drop pretty soon , when It will bo definitely settled who shall have the office. All sortn of street rumors are afloat as to who will receive the plum , but there Is ono gentleman In town who la sup posed to bo near the throne who says that no change whatever will bo made until after the convention Is held and the state ticket named. This leaves all the candidates for the office In the dark as to what to do. An effort will bo made to send a list of admin istration men to the convention and to shut out all democrats who have a kindly feeling for Mr. Bryan. Several efforts have been made to secure a quorum of the Democratic club of late , but the attendance has been so slim that no business was transacted. Each candidate for the postofflco Is afraid to take a bold stand for the administration In the face of so much opposition until he Is clvcn some assurance that ho Is to get the postofUce. Within the last twenty-fours things have taken a turn which Indicate that J. J. Mc Millan will get the ofllce. Sam Qosney , Joe Sip ? , B. II. Doud , Captain Cockerel ! , John Hltchhart and ono or two other good demo crats have not given up hopes , however , and say they are still In the race. Dr. Glasgow' ? four years will not be up for several weeks and the doctor has not signified any willing ness to resign. Charges were filed against him to have him removed some time nco , but It appears that nothing of a serious na ture was proved , as ho still continues to draw his $3,000 a year. The office Is a good one and the demo crats openly declare that ono of their party should have been drawing the salary for the last year or more. The state committee and Commlttecman Castor have held several sessions on the South Omaha postofflce , but have never been able to decide upon who should have It. When J. Sterling Morton was In Omaha the last time , however , It Is said he named Ms favorite to the state com mittee , and , Inasmuch as Mr. Martin , the chairman of that committee. Is Just now seeking the endorsement of Mr. Morton for an office for himself , It is not unlikely that he will take the tip given him by Morton and recommend to the department that the Individual be given the South Omaha ofllc-e. Mr. McMillan Is supposed to bo the man endorsed by Morton , although there arc papers - pors on file in Washington wherein the state commlttteo endorses Mr. Doud. But the dem ocratic state commlttco has been known to endorse more than ono man for the same office , and , figuring on this basis , the other candidates do not anticipate that the signa tures of Martin and Sheean absolutely make ' a man's appointment certain. The demo crats down here seem to think that Morton controls all Nebraska politics when he wishes to Interfere , and the wise ones now claim that Morton has selected the South Omaha postmaster who will succ = ed Dr. Glasgow , and they say his name is McMillan. Hull Ilrr Ilusliiincl I.ocltcd Up. Mrs. John Hogan complained of her hus- iand's treatment toward her , and the head of the family was locked up. Mrs. Hogan claims that whenever John gets drunk ho uses her for a punching bag , and says she is tired of being so used. Hogan works liard every day. Ho says that on Saturday evening while he was out doing the chores Ills wife went through his pockets and took all the money ho had. He wanted some money to spend In the evening , and when : ie found ho had been drained by his better mlf , who not only refused to give up any nit locked him out , he took the ax and broke : ho door open. Annexation Sentiment. The subject that has been discussed In South Omaha more than any other during the last week Is annexation. The men who are opposing It In the strongest terms are .lio local politicians and the saloon keepers. There are , of course , a number of business men who are sincere In the belief that In case the proposition carried It would re duce their sales and for that reason they oppose It. Some of the property owners also object , but It Is the general belief that if the matter was submitted tomorrow It would carry by a big majority. MiiRlo < Ity ( .oislp. Mrs. T. D.

ON THEIR TRAIL. \Vlvei of tlio I'll m mi * Vntnn Trlii Qurstton Ing th 1'ollco. The escape of the three farmers from Yutan , described recently , did not end when they were fined In the pollco court after night's carousal with some Tenth stree courtesans. Their wives have now taken a hand In the matter and have been making rigid Investigation Into their conduct. Th night after the arrest of the farmers a good looking little woman came Into the police station and Inquired for Sergeant Whalen. The sergeant was there , and , after calling him off to one side , the woman began plying him with questions regarding the actions o her husband. Although Whalen Is a con firmed bachelor , he scented trouble for the farmers if ho told the truth , and ho tried to square the matter for the men by saying that they were misled Into evil doing by another party. The next morning the firs woman was accompanied by another , who Is also wife of ono of the men concerned. They wore on the tralf and Interviewed every one connected with the downfall of their lords Ono of the farmers alleged to have been a candidate for a legislative nomination this fall , but this escapade lias "busted" his as pirations.

Quealey , president of the Quealey Soap company , residing at 1531 South Twenty- seventh street , had an exciting encounter with a burglar about 10 o'clock last night. Mr. Quealey and hlsr family had been sitting out In front of the house and they went In to retire about 10 o'clock. Just previously they heard someone moving around In the house , but supposed Jt was some of the chil dren. Mr. Quealey had occasion to step Into ono of the front rooms when he suddenly came upon a man going through one of his cabinets. Although unarmed and smaller than the burglar , Mr. Quealey grappled with the fellow and gave him a lively rougli and tumble scrap over the room. The thief was a muscular man and soon succeeded In breakIng - Ing Mr. Quealey's.hold , and. Jumping through an open window , made his escape , leaving a new hat In Mr jQuoaley's possession. The polio * were notified and were furnished a good doscrlpltlon of the burglar , but no trace of him was found last night. Ho had evi dently Just entered the house , for he se cured nothing of any value. Mr. Quealey escaped uninjured , excepting a few bruises. w1 " Sunday at Courtlund.

There were two excursions yesterday , one on the Chicago , Burlington & Qulncy from Creston , lied Oak and other points on the line , which only came to Council Uluffa , but several thousand of the excursionists found no dllllculty In reaching Courtland beach , where- they enjoyed themselves for several bourn , while the I ! . & M. brought In an excursion from Grand Island.
