The little shower yesterday afternoon put
the finishing touches on the blcjclo track
at Union park , and if good weather pic-
valls today the riders at the Owl club
blcjtlo meet this afternoon will find one
of the finest mile tracks In the country.
ThiTO wus some apprehension that the dryness -
ness of the soil would make It difficult to
get the track In as good condition a ? was
dcslicd , but the lain fixed It better than
Ihe sprinklers could. The roller will be
kept going today until near the time for the
races and the track will present a dustless -
less , smooth and firm surface. The only
other contingency to bo dreaded Is the- prev
alence of high winds , which might Inter
fere with the work of smashing state rec
ords.
The entries closed at noon yesterday and
the string Is certainly a fine Indication of
the great Intelest that wheelmen aiu taking

Grand hotel at 2 o'clock and elected Prof ,
II. W. Sawor president and H. P. Bar-

dlbcusslon of the work before the commit
tee , and If any of Its members ever Im
agined that they have a sinecure their
minds were disabused of the Idea by thn
plans Uiat were * outlined during the hour.
The mo'o the duties of the committee were
considered the more apparent It became to
all that 1U opportunities for advancing the
work of the association were great. Many
subjects wcro discussed , but the only work
taken up was the preparation of an article
showing the advantages of Council Bluffs
as a convention city , This naturally brought
up the problem of convention facilities and
the necessity for providing a convention hall
that would bo largo enough to accommodate
any state or national gathering and leave
plenty of room for spectators , The com
mittee decided to make some recommenda
tions to Iho executive committee concern
ing this feature of one of the problems It
had to deal with. The preparation of the
article referred to was delegated to the
chairman , with Instructions to call upon any
member of the committee for assistance.
This article will bo prepared and submitted
to thu committee , and If approved will be
presented to the executive committee and re
ferred by It to the committee on printing ,
when It will be printed and given the widest
l > ocialblo circulation. The committee ad
journed to meet at the call of the chair
man ,
The committee on solicitation also held a
meeting and perfected UK organization. It

ST. LOUIS , Aug. 13. A special to the
Republic from Dallas , Tex. , says : Milton
Park , who at the national conference of
populists at Nashville Tenn. , July 4 , was
appointed the chairman of the national or
ganization committee , created at the con
ference , today Issued a lengthy addrera to
the populists of the United States , In which
he reviews the origin nnd organization of
the party , naming the abuses which led dis
satisfied elements of the old parties to create
a new one , nnd coming to the present day ,
declares that :
"Tho trusts , the monopolies , the corpora
tions , the monejed Interests of the coun
try are organized. Their strength Is con
certed Into the action of one man ; hence
their power , their success. If the people's
party would hope to succeed , they must
organize , they must unify , they must con
centrate their strength. We are confronted
today by obstacles and enemies within and
without. "
After reviewing the actions of the con
vention at Omaha and St. Louis and deplor
ing the events of 189G , ho adda : "As chair
man of your organization committee , I urge
every populist everywhere to avoid , re
pudiate ami reject all fusion or alliance with
the democratic or the republican party.
Repel every overture of these enemies of the
common people. I suggest that throughout
the entire country , wherever there are two
or more populists in a ward , precinct or
township , they go to work at once , per
sistently , to perfect a local populist organ
ization In their midst. Press the work until
you shall have secured a compact organiza
tion In every county in your state. If your
state chairman Is not In sympathy with the
policy declared at Nashvlllo > ou should
select ono who is as soon as practicable.
In those states where the state chairman
and national executive comtnllteemen are
In harmony with the policy declared at Nash-
vlllo , the national organization commlttee-
mcm will aid them in every way poculble In
strengthening the party organization. In
this way an enthusiasm can he developed
that will know no defeat , no surrender.
Populists of that ancestry which founded
this government , that bequeathed to you
personal liberty , preserve and perpetuate It
by the peaceful means of the ballot. "
11UGA1.NS HIS VOICE.
Frightened I > y a Ilronm und Mode
bliecrhlcNH for Nine YeurH.
During the lest nine years Charles
Schrank of Peshtlgo , Wis. , has been dumb.
Now ho speaks , and his cure Is conaldered
llttlo short ot a miracle.
For dajo and months that seemed very
long to him the young man could hear per
fectly well , but he could answer no one's
questions. He had to put everything in
writing. His vocal cords would not work.
His case was considered a very strange one ,
and from the time ho became dumb It was
the principal topic In Peshtlgo , where
Schrank was raised and where ho was
known aa a hard-working young farmer , by
all means the quietest boy in or about
town. Ills parents thought for a while
they would have him go to college , but be
couldn't Join In a college yell. When he
was very young they had planned to make
a minister of him , but all their parental am
bitions had been cruelly shattered.
U was when Charles was about 11 years
old that he suddenly lost his power of
speech , relates the Chicago Post. Ho Is
now 20 yeara old , Ono night whllo a boy
ho had a dream , of which ho no longer has
distinct recollection. But It was a vision
that nearly frightened him out of his wits.
In the morning when ho awoke ho could not
speak. The scare bad taken hs voice from
him. It was belleve < l at first he would re
cover In a day or two , but he did not. From
ono day to another he failed to re-gain what
he had so suddenly lost , Charles Schrank
was dumb ,
The family of the unfortunate boy did not
know what to do. They consulted every
phjslclan In Peshllgo and at Marlnette , the
county seat. The physicians did what they
could , and each bad a different method.
All the physicians and all their methods
were unsuccessful , and young Schrank con
tinued to be mute. Jt seemed that hlo
case was hopeless and that be would go
through life without ever again being able
to express by word of mouth his Joys or
sorrows.
This made the boy's father almost des
perate , Charles was healthy In every other
way. Ho worked hard on the farm In the
summer and In the winter ho went out Into
the vroods and helped In the lumber campa.
Ho could do all but talk. So bis father ,
though a poor German farmer , offered to
glvo his farm to any pnyslclan or other
person who would make his boy talk. All
the sorcerers and quacks and the regular
physicians , too , tried their best , and
Charles took medicine and read recipes until
ho was weary. It was all of no avail. The
father kept his farm and the boy continued
without a voice. .
Finally Schrank grew up , and before he '
was 20 ho left home to be cured , if possi
First he went to Green Bay , but re- l
celved no relief. Then ho went to Mil- }
vvaukce , and hero physicians pronounced
his case hopeless. As a last resort he
came to Chicago. Doctors studied the
young man's casu and procured for him a
situation whllo he received treatment. Then
they treated him by an electrical method ,
and in a few days Charfen Scbrank began
to epeak. It was the first time in nine
years , and bis Joy was great , for he bad
almost given up hope of having his speech
restored. The treatment had been success
ful , and over since the patient has tallies ! at ,
well aa any man can.

Captain Hcrendeen wn'i > born Plxty-sovcn
years ago , come September , In N vv Bed-
fold j , Mass , where his "forbears" had fol
lowed the ea for Reiteration * . Since then
J
he has been around the world several times
nnd hns spent between live nnd fix years
In ' Alaska.
It was on nn expedition there that ho re
ceived nn unusual title. In this wipe : He
was a member of the interpalnr expedition
of lisi under Lieutenant liny , which went
to Point Barrow. Hwas put down on the
roi : ns "Interpreter , quartermaster and BO
forth " Since thnt he has hnd the title of
"Captain So Forth" applied to him. He
spenki Esquimaux almost like a native nnd
Is deemed Invnluable ns nn Interpreter ot the
language. '
The captain modestly narrated some of his
adventures to the Star reporter. He paid :
"I think It was 1S4G or 1R17 , Just about
llftv year * ago , when I was 'prentice bov
on a Balling ve > cl that I had my first
glimpse Into Davy Jones' locker and 1
thought 1 was bound for It for good nnd nil
time. We were going around Cape Horn
In a heavj ga'c , when I went overboird
AM It happened , I caught my ankle In a
bight of rope , which was the only thliif
thpt raved mo. I was dragged up out of
the water by this , more dead than alive ,
choekcd with water and almost frozen. I
could not have survived more than a min
ute In that water.
"I happened to bo In California , from
Callao having palled from Nantucket , when
the gold fever broke out in 1SI9 , anJ I wn
Infected by it 1 pcnt some time In the
mines"nnd finally left , after doing falrlv
wel' . I also dug for trold In New Zealand ,
but was not EX > successful. "
"In ISO ! I was one of the crew of the sail
ing ship lllchard Mitchell of Martha's Vine
yard. As we were cruising near Crozet'
Inlands , In the Indian ocean , two boats'
crown of us werf landed to hunt the 'sea
elephant' for blubber. The anlmnl Is noth-
Imj more than n big , fat , overgrown seal ,
with a sort of nasal appendage whlcX when
Inflated , resembles the trunk of an elephant
We landed on one of the Islands , which
were greatly Isolated , and had just gotten
to work when the sky suddenly darkened ,
a lerrllic gale ret In , and the Illchnrtl
Mitchell was driven out to sea. Gale fol
lowed pale , our phlp disappeared , and wf
were nlone for twenty-two days. Mopt of
us ) hnd nlmost despaired of ever getting off
A'l were suffering from stomach trouble
from entlng the llttloawe hnd. When we
hnd n'most given up thetshlp made Its ap
pearance. I never wish to go through such
a time ngntn. >
"In 1SGO I wa < > salllop mas-tor of the ship
Nn nnu , about 400 tons , from Now Bedford
bound north for vvhalup. Did I ever harpoon
ono ? Oh , yes , more thnn once. A man
hardly knows -what n'thrllllnpr ' experience !
until he has 'struck''a ' whale , which , mad
dened by the pain of i the" lance In Its blub
ber , 'sounds , ' then 'floes1 and tears alone
through the water , dragging the boat with il
at n terrific rate of fcj eed !
"Every w tinier hnsrbee'n knocked out of r
boat at different times "by one of the bip
fish. I never < ? aw a w'hrtle bite a boat , but
I have often seen a b6at np'et by one. The
wbalp deep It by pre ? lit his Jaw against
the side. This has 'happened time nnd tlm
again , and I saw a .hian klllpij once bv a
wha'e on the coast'l'of California. The
whale 'broached , ' came up underneath the
boat , struck -with Its. tall nnd hit the man ,
when ho fell In the , water , killing him In
stantly. We fccureflrhls body.
"In 1873-74 I was in pommaml of the Alas
kan coast survey shin'Yukon , from San
Francisco , In charge of Dr. W. H. Dill , one
of the curators of the Smithsonian. I was'
pelagic scaling some years nfter. and met
with good succes" . I should sav that under
the present circumstances th * Tjnitcd Stnte
Is wasting time and money In attempting
to protect the seals. It IP too much depopu
lated to ever amount to nnythln/f. It was
not nn uncommon thing for a catch of 200-
000 a year to be made when I was In the
buHness
"In 1SS1 I went with Lieutenant Ray on
the Interpo ir expedition to Point Barrow ,
and spent some time there. I never minded
the cold. I was never more thnn 70 de
grees north , but this Is some distance. I
had -whaling1 ptatlon nt Point Barrow nt
ono time. During the five or six years I
spent in Alaska nnd up north I picked up
the Inngunge of the Esquimaux and can
spcnk It no well ns they can. I have done
a creat deal of Interpreting.
"It Is a mistake to suppose that the Ks-
qulmnux eit train oil , fat nnd blubber. All
the time I spent among them I never yet
saw them do it. They don't ent nny more
fat thnn ordinary people. They are ex
tremely fond of the other portions of thr
whale's body , with a thin skin of blubber
on the Inside. They sometimes dip their
meat In grease , but never eat p'nln fat or
"
blubber.
How- did pitch a man find a final haven n
doorkeeper nt the Smithsonian institute ?
Through misfortune , which coms to the
bravest and the strongest ns well as the
weakest. A government clnlm , n patent In
which he thought there was thousands , and
one or two other things brought Captain
Hcrendeen from California to Washington.
His money all went , and he was obliged to
have work. Influential friends knew whnt
manner of man he was and got his his pies-
ent position. He hopes It will be a safe
harbor for the rest of his days.
iiAnnnu THAN A DIAMOND.
A Nerv Metallic Coiniiouiiil that AVIII
Cut tlit ! tirent fivni.
Within a few di > s the pa'e-nt ofllce will
grant title 'n a di'coveiy which may falrlj
be coreldertd aa being the most remark i-
ble since the X-ray. It ta for a substance
that Is lurrler than the diamond , sajs the
Mineral Collector , and the Inventor Is Mols-
nan , the French savant , whose experiments
In the line of diamond making by artifice
have obtained such wide publicity. The ut
most eecrecy has ben maintained In regard
to the matter , but Investigation reveals the
fact that the substance In question Is a car
bide of titanium that la to ay , a com
pound of carbon wltli the metal titanium.
There can be no doubt that Its production
In quantities will revolutionize many Industries -
tries where abrasives are employed , and It
may oven be used for the cutting of dia
monds.
Titanium Is ono of the most Interesting of
the rare metals. It Is about half as heavy
as Iron , and , like the latter , It Is white when
perfectly pure. Chemloally It resembles tin ,
while In Its physical p pcrtlea it la like
Iron , The familiar mineral "rutlle" Is nn
oxide of titanium , and la used to give the
proper color to artificial , teeth. A small
quantity of the mineral put Into the mix
ture for tooth enamel produces the peculiar
yellowish tint that coupterfelta nature so
admirably. " ' {
Titanium has no other commercial use
than this. There Is nojiQ 6f It on the market
In the metallic elate , 'anI ( probably not an
ounce could be obtained ! any price by ad
vertlslng for It. Dealers' In rare metals will
quote jou gallium at , tS.yOO an ounce , ger
manium at $1.125 an oUncp. rhodium at $112
an ounce , ruthenlum'a > t iK ! ) an ounce , Irld-
lum at $37 an ounce , ( ( amlum at $2G an
ounce , and palladium fit $24 an ounce ; but
they have no titanium to Isell , because there
no demand for It. and Also for the reason
that It Is oxtrcmelyi difficult to separate
frnm the substances with which It Is found
combined In nature. At the same time
thcro In no doubt that plenty of It could bo
produced at a very moderate cost If a large
demand should spring up. Though clateed
as a rare metal , it Is not really such , Irian-
mueh as It Is a common Impurity in iron
ores.

State Auditor W. O. Owen ami Ills deputy ,
Prof. Nleswander , returned jestordny from
a trip through the Yellowstone park anil
the Jackson's Hole country , ami give In
teresting Accounts of an attempt made to
scale the picturesque peak of the Grand
Teton. The altitude of the peak as Riven
by Haydcn , Is 13,700 feet. Auditor Owen
has made a number of measurements , and
Is satlsflt'd that the correct height IB o\er
14,000 feet. Haden claimed to have climbed
to the summit of the peak In 1S72. Later
members of his party admitted that the sum.
mlt was not reached , but that their highest
point was within a short distance of the
summit , nnd that they had marked the
place reached with n monument of stones.
In his recent attempt to reach the sum
mit of the mountain Mr. Owen found the
Haydcn monument and also found It to be
at least 500 feet from the top of the peak.
Auditor Owen's party consisted of htmsolf ,
Prof. Nloswander , Frank Peterson and John
Shlves , They took with them Ice picks ,
ropes and all the other paraphernalia of
mountain climbers. The mountain was
climbed with pack horses to the edge of the
timber line , about two and 11 half miles
from the summit. Krom timber line tip
the peak la bare granite , with
Immense Ice and snow fields , which
feed Innumerable mountain streams
which flow Into the lakes nnd livers of the
Jackson's Hole country. The only vegeta
tion found above timber line consisted of a
few species of flowers , mainly phlox anil
genthn. At the highest point reached the
barometer showed the elevation to bo 13 GOO
feet. From that paint to th summit , a dis
tance of about 400 feet , the peak consists
of an almost vertical shaft of granite up
which the party made sU unsuccessful at
tempts to climb. Auditor Owen Rajs he Is
certain that no human being has over stood
upon the eummlt of the peak and that It
cannot be scaled without artificial aids such
as ladders and ropes From the monument
left by the Haydcn party > Mr. Owen climbed
100 feet upward until his progress wau
stopped 'by ' an o\erhanglng ledge of granite
coated with Ice , which flopped all attempts
to go higher. The peak ranks with the
great mountain peaks of the world In Its
inaccessibility. No one but an experienced
mountain climber can master It.
Auditor Owen found the Jackson's Hole
country to lie settling up rapidly , at least
fifty new families having moved Into the
region during the past year. The only
mining going on In the region Is along the
Snake river , where placer n ? ners are mak
ing fair wages washing the bed sands of
the stream.

The police have started In to rid the cltj
of vagrants nnd busplclous characters who
make their living by hanging about low re
sorts and fleecing strangers. Ycsloulay affr-
teinoon Illlly Hughes , W. J. Gordon . .uulVI1 -
llam Rogers wcrs arrested as suspicious
chaiactors and It Is umloistood that the ar
rest of others of this clubs will follow.
Gordon nnd Rogers arc a couple of kmooth
jourig men who travel together and who
claim to have Just at lived from Chicago
Their fciisplcloufl actions attracted the at
tention of Ofllcer Hjdock , who locked
them up.
As for Dllly Hughes , ho Is too well known
to need any Intioductlon to the police or the
iceldents of thla city. Chief Hronnan siju
that Hughes Is euspectcd of having had
something to do with a numbei of petty
crimes here lately and he proposes to keep
him In Jail while he Investigates.
The gang of which Huglim Is a member
fleeced J. A. Sllva , mi Idaho otockmnn , out
cf $110 Thursday afternoon on the loaded
dice game Sllvawas filled up with bad
liquor and Induced to bet on a sure-thing
game. The scheme was to take thtec dice
and bow Sllva that no matter how they
wore thrown the number of spots on the
top and bottom would always be the > amo
After ho had been shown that this alwnv ?
happened so and he hsd made a hot of sufll-
clcrit sl7c , one of the dice was changed , nnd
of course the number of spots on the bottom
\va.s not twenty-one nnd ho lost. After work.
Ing Silva for all the loose money ho had. the
pang learned that ho bad Just sold a ship
ment of cattle and had forwarded the pro
ceeds to his Idaho bank. Sllva was Induced
to go to ono of the banks here and draw
some of this money. At the banV he was
refused the accommodation , as the money had
already been sent to Idaho. Later on , when
the police learned of this transaction , Sllva
was taken about town and shown a number
of suspicious chamcto-s , but he failed to
Identify any of them as the men who trle-d
to work him.
Ono thing that makes the work of the
police hard In this reaped la that Omaha
sharpers take a run down here , fleece a
stockman and get out of the city before the
victim has a chance to report his loss to
the officers.
Judge Clulstman started the good work
going yesterday afternoon by dishing up a
number of broad and water sentences. Wil
liam Butler , who Is an old time Innger on
nt paloons In the tough part of town , drew a
ticket entitling him to stop with the sheriff

bo fed on bread and water.
William Jackson , colored , who , according
to the police , Is ono of the moat villainous
looking negroes out of the penitentiary , will
tarry at the county Jail for a period of
twenty days and feast on dry broad onJ
water. Jackson was raising a disturbance
on N street the other night , when Chief
Biennui crme alpng. Hirunan ordered him
to keep quiet and go along to bed.
Ross Mayhew Is another suspicious char
acter. Ho was arrested In company with
Kid Maloy on stt.plclon : of having robbed
Mrs. Gates. As nothing could be proven
igalrat him , ho was sent up for sixteen dajs
is n vagrant.
Pat Kennedy Just returned after an ab
sence" of a couple of years and managed to
o-oak Into jail before ho lad been In the
city nn hour. Ho will eojourn with the
county Jailer for twenty days and be fed
an bread and water.

"Chejcnno Kid. " Thursday afternoon Maloy
was Riven a suspended centcnco upon his
nromlso to leave the city at once. Ho failed
to do so and was arrested at noon The
