LINCOLN , Sept. G. ( Special. ) Tbo en-
impment of the Nebraska National Guard
open Monday morning. September 1-1 ,
fit Lincoln park. By Monday noon the en-
impmeut will bo formed , comprising
i twelve companies of the First Infantry , ten
icompanlcK of the Second , one troop of cav-
Jalry , ono battery of artillery , all of the
jKuards , and four companies of the Twenty-
r second Infantry , U. S. A. , and band from
, Fort Crook , under command of Major Van
Horn.
During the week the military exercises
! wlll materially differ from those of any
other former encampment. It has been
; " the design of those In charge of the matter
f. to offer a rather unique and original pro-
. pram , and ono that will best conserve
the Interests of the guards. At thu request
of the War department , communicated
through Major Fcchet , it is intended to
devote all the time possible to field work
and the practical work of troops called Into
active ( service. On each day , at 9 o'clock
In the morning , the ceremony of guard
mount , for the Instruction of the National
Guard , will bo given them by details from
the regular troops on the grounds. This
will bo Immediately followed by regular
Kiiard mount by the National Guard. At
< :30 : each evening there will be a regimental
parade , followed by a review of all the com
panies by the brigade commander.
Beginning at 10 a. m. and 1:30 : p. m. of
each day , excepting the first and last days ,
the troops will assemble for drill and field
. .exercises. The most Interesting problem
that will bo given the officers to carry out
has been nrraoged by Major Fechet. In
' 'this exercise the guard will proceed on the
assumption that the city of Lincoln is tem
porarily In the hands of a lawless mob.
The troops will enter the city In three
columns , on Fourteenth , Fifteenth and S.lx-
teenth streets , flanked by the cavalry on
Thirteenth and Seventeenth ptrce.ts. On
reaching M , O and P streets , the columns
will change direction , moving west between
Tenth and Twelfth streets , on 0 street ,
where It will be assumed that the greater
part of the mob's resistance is massed.
WILL HAVE A BATFLE HERB.
The lawless clement Is supposed to be
behind breastworks. At first the artillery
will bo brought to bear on these breast
works , which will subsequently" bo charged
, by the Infantry and captured. During this
[ Uline the rioters will bo supposed to keep
up a harassing lire from the roofs of
buildings , but after the breastworks are
taken the mob will retire sullenly beyond
Ninth street. This will close the military
exorcise , or problem. The troops will
then form on Ninth street , In single col
umn , march cast on P to Tenth street ,
thence on Tenth to O , along O to .Fifteenth ,
from" Fifteenth to N , along N to Ninth ,
and on Ninth street to camp. This ma
neuver will take place on Friday , the 18th
- inst. On Saturday forenoon the troops will
bo paid. In the afternoon the brigade com
mander will formally Inspect them , follow
ing which the whole command will pass In
review before the commandcr-ln-chlef , Gov
ernor Holcomb. At S o'clock In the evenIng -
Ing of each day thn olflccrs will assemble
In the grandstand for Instruction In the
exercises for the coming day. This will
bo given by Major Fechet , assisted by other
regular army officers , It Is expected that
essays on military exercises will bo read
by some of the officers at these meetlnga
for Instruction.

Potato Crop Itntlier Indifferent ,
NORTH LOUP. Neb. , Sept. 6. ( Spe
cial. ) A number of farmers have been
making a preliminary examination of the
potato crop which was quite largely
planted hero this season , chiefly owing to
the magnificent results obtained with the
same crop under Irrigation last year anil
report that It will fall far short of last
year's crop , both In quantity mid quality.
Many state that they have found the con
dltlon of the tubers extremely IndlfJcrcnt ,
being few , small nnd scabby , as well as
sorlously damaged by cut worms. TUougli
the rainfall this season was undoubtedly
ampto to produce an abundant yield the
manner In which It fell la thought to have
been decidedly detrimental to perfect
growth , the llnod of Juno having beaten the
soli Into a compact mass that afterward
hardened and cracked , thus producing a
state of affairs that no amount of tillage
could adequately remedy a .condition , too ,
that the farmer making use of arltflclal
moisture only , as was done last season ,
could effectively avoid.

CHADUON , Neb. , Sept. C. ( Special Tele
gram. ) The coroner's jury In the Danley
mystery , which resulted In the death of two
young children , arrived at a verdict last
night , to the effect that the children came
to their deaths at the hands of a party or
parties unknown. The verdict was no sur
prise , as It was impossible to get any direct
testimony as to the origin of the fire. Many
witnesses were examined , but nothing of any
great Importance was brought out. It was ,
however , proved by one that the sprinkler
found inside the house , and which smelled
strongly of kerosene , contained a small
quantity of milk , and was washed out shortly
after the fire by a female friend of the fam
ily. The whole case Is a mystery , and It
Is more than likely nothing further will de
velop In It for some time at least.
Both father and mother of the murdered
children appeared several times before the
coroner , but neither displayed the least
sign of emotion or excitement at any time
wlille on the stand. Stories , theories and
opinions are still ripe , but nothing of any
moment has been developed. Sympathy for
the bereaved father and mother Is heard on
every hand.

mittee , In which the charge is Implied that

manager and has no authority whatever to
either accept or reject for that gentleman.

'
ST. PAUL , Sept. 6. Archbishop Ireland
has Issued a letter announcing that here
after In the Catholic parochial schools no
tuition bo charged , such tuition being con
sidered an obstacle to the growth of these ,
schools. In the course of the letter he
says :
"Of course the expenses of maintaining the
schools must be provided for In some way.
Pastors will take the amount of these ex
penses from the regular church receipts of
the parish , or will rely upon extraordinary
measures which their own Judgment may
commend. Catholics will , wo are very sure ,
co-opcrato with their pastors In maintain
ing the parish school. The proper view to
bo taken of the Catholic school is to regard
It as a great religious work In which all are
concerned , whether they have or have not
children attending It. The Catholic school
the future will prove It beyond a doubt
Is the most fruitful of all Institutions for
the preservation and perpetuation of the
faith in this country , and the Catholic who
takes a deep and abiding Interest In his re
ligion will love the Catholic school and
prove his love for It by his generosity. "
The letter closes with on appeal to Catho
lic parents to support the parochial schools
and to send their children to them , saying :
"Pupils of Catholic schools learn thoroughly
their religion and are made to practice It In
dally life. If the faith of your children Is
to be with them a strong and living faith
when they have grown to manhood and
womanhood , It must become to them now ,
as It were , a second nature. This Is what
Is done by a Catholic school. Faith Is
there grounded Into children so that It never
leaves them afterward. "

WASHINGTON , Sept. G. FOP the last day
of the visit of LI Hung Chang to the national
capital a rather extensive program had been
arranged , but this was broken without qualm
by thu ambassador , who tires quickly of
sightseeing and seems to find more satisfac
tion In personal conversation with his en
tertainers than the wonders of architecture
or paying tribute to historical characters.
The weather was gloomy and threatening for
one thing this morning when Earl LI roco
about dawn , and , considering his strong
repugnance to rain , It was something of an
achievement for his conductors to Induce
him to go out of doors at all. Made aware
by the newspapers of the extremely early
hours kept by LI Hung Chang , many per
sons seized upon the opportunity afforded
by the unoccupied morning to pay their re
spects , among them being the Portuguese
minister and several olllcials. The am
bassador teemed to bo In an amiable mood ,
hut , following Ills peculiar policy of doing
all the Interviewing himself , succeeded In
extracting from his visitors much more In
formation than he bestowed. He also made
some of the officials feel uncomfortable at
times by embarrassing leading questions
calculated to develop their nolltlcal Inten
tions.
After the morning was over Earl LI con
sented to make a start upon the day's
program and about 9:30 : o'clock ho waa
placed In a carriage and with his * personal
suite escorted to the Treasury department.
The viceroy's visit to the treasury , which
occupied fully an hour and a half , ap
peared to specially interest the whole party ,
and after a brief and cordial welcome by
Secretary Carlisle the viceroy expressed a
desire to Inspect the many money vaults ,
and In company with the secretary , Treas
urer Morgan and Mr. Foster the lower
depths were visited , the massive steel doors
of the gold , sliver and bond vaults thrown
open and the contents of each were ex
plained. The viceroy's curiosity and In
terest were aroused and his questions and
their answers covered a wide range. From
the vaults the party ascended to the upper
floors and visited the Issue and redemption 1
rooms , where the secretary explained the
methods by which the money for the na
tion passed from the bureau of engraving
and printing and the mints into circula
tion.
tion.Tho
The viceroy seemed delighted with every
thing he saw , and on leaving the building
thanked the officials for their courtesy. The
presence of the party In the building ex
cited the greatest Interest , nnd everywhere
they were followed by a throng of clerks and
others who were bent on obtaining a sight ot
the distinguished Chinaman.
Secretary Carlisle accompanied the party
to the bureau of engraving and printing ,
which was next visited. The sight-seeing
was , however , cut short by a downpour of.
rain. The viceroy was escorted by Secre
tary Carlisle back to the Treasury depart
ment , and then the entire retinue returned
to the Arlington , which was reached at
11:40 : o'clock. _
