' Ooorgo A. McNutt , district ptsstnger ngcnt for this road , with headquarters Jn Katuns City , took charge of the party and accom panied It unlll Kansas City wcs reached on the return trip. The courtesies extended to the party by this road , through Mr. Mc- JCutt , and also through the gtueral passen. ger agent of the ssmc road , \V. C. Crusb , who mti the party at t'ort AVorth and acalu at Dallas , traveling with It a part of tht way , were unlimited. Time cards were thrown to the winds. Although the party traveled In two special sleepers attached to the regular trains , stops were made wher ever the members of the delegation deslreo to do missionary work for the exposition by addressing the crowds which congre gated at the depot or up town. These stops were rcgulate-i to suit the occasion , without - out regard lo the running tim of trjln > and telegrams were sent ahead to notltj the towns that the party was approaching and. desired to address the citizens. Kvxry. thing , in short , was done by these officials that could conduce in the slightest degree to ttio success of the mission of the travel ers and the Amount of benefit inuring to the exposition by the opportunities thus afforded to pour thf hot shot Into the people all along the line Is Incalculable At every stop members of the party made a willing detail to distribute advertising mat ter relating to the exposition. This matter was taken around to the storre and hotels and distributed along the streets and among the crowds gathered at the de-pots. Xone of it was wasted , but a strip of country through Texas was literally plastered with tils advertising matter as effectually ns could bave been done by the advertising car of a well regulated circus. The first stop of any length was made at Fort Worth. Tex. , Monday morning , where the party stopped for an hour and a half. W. E. Skinner , superintendent of the stock yards , took the party In charge down the line and the entire delegation was escorted to the Worth hotel , where the Nebraskans were the guests of the town. Mayor Paddock acted as host and greeted the tourists In the most enthusijstie manner. After breakfast the visitors were escorted to the court house , a beautiful granite structure , of which the people of Fort Worth are proud. Mayor Paddock welcomed the party In a felicitous speech full of witticisms. General Colby re plied on. behalf of the Nebraska delegation and then a short time was given to the inter change of greetings. At Waco a 3arge .crowd of citizens was at the depot and a short talk was made by L. H. Austin , editor and proprietor of the Lin coln Neb. . Call , who expounded the gospel of the exposition In a convincing manner. M. B. Davis , editor of the Waco Times-Her ald , replied on behalf of the people of Waco , Ilia mayor having been called away. Mr. Davis said he was authorized to pledge the mayor , tie Commercial club and all the other organizations of the city to aid the ex position In every possible way. Numerous short stops were made at other points along the way , at each of which the time was filled to the best advantage in spreading the news of the exposition. Houston was reiched about midnight Monday. Tusdny morning the party was es corted to the convention hall by a commit tee of Houston citizens appointed for the purpose. The meetlnc was held in Turner hall and was attended by Governor Culber- soa. Lieutenant Governor Jester , Mayor Rice and a large number of representative Texans from all parts of the state. The big Nebraska delegation was welcomed with applause as it entered the hall and the welcome ex tended on all sides was most cordial. Lieu tenant Governor Jester called the meet ing to order and Frank Holland , ex- mayor ot Dallas , wns elected temporary chairman. L. L. H. Austin of Lincoln. Neb. , was elected eecreUry.

In addition to the advertisement for the exposition afforded by this convention the cxposltlonwas represented In the most fa- voriblc manner In the float parade which passed through all the Important streets of Houston the night of December S. One of the handsomest floats In this parade was a large one on which the lArch of States tws reproduced. It attracted attention on every side and was n most attractive display. Wednesday morning the party started for < ? ablne Pass and Port Arthur over the lines of the Sablne & East Tejcas railway , a line operated 4 > y the Southern Pacific. The party was In eharge of John D. Coodhuc , vice president of this line , A sbt'rt stop was made at Beaumont , one ot Ihe princJpAl lum ber points In the state. The vlMtors vlslteJ the lumber mills where much of the lumber used in this section Is turned out , and re turned to the station to talk exposition to the townspeople Who had congregated there. The party was Joined at this point by Her man Kountie of Omaha and Charles Kountze of Denver , who are larsely Interested In Sa blne PSRS. They accompanied the party to Saiilnc Pass , one of the oldest -towns in the state , where the company In which tie Kountses are Interested Is engaged In build ing slips and mating a deep 'water ' part. The government has constructed jetties from the town to the gulf , a distance of ntwrnt five miles , and a. channel Is thus provided which will accommodate the largest ocean vessels. A new town is being ibullt between the old town and the gulf and the -place pre sents all the aspects of such work , with whldb westerners are more or less familiar. A magnificent hotel has been constructed and here the party was entertained at a ban quet iwhich could not have -been excelled In any o'.der town. After the banquet speeches were made by both sides and then a schooner was hoarded and the party treated to a riac out on the roilllnR waters of the gulf. A number of the Xchraskans failed to reallic on the delicious repast whlcfh they bad so recently devoured an-d the fishes of that sec tion Vcre treated to a banquet which must have excited their wonder. The -water was as gentle as a sprlnc Jamb , but the slight roll was too nnrcSi for some ot the party. After returning to the dock the party boarded two small steam yachts and -were taken In charge * y a de-legation frcin Port Arthur. By the time the latter town wcs reached , however , it was too dark to cee < anything and the party was driven In car riages to the magnificent hotel , whic.1 faces Sablne lake- , where a most delicious supper was served. By this time all of the party bad recovered their appetl'les , hut the c.a- piclty of the lolol was taxed to accommo date the large number of regular boarders who were taking refuge there from the cold weather of the north , and only a portico o ! the Xebraskans oould be accommodated at one a-lme. Before the second relief could satisfy HE appetite the time had arrived for the special train which was to take the party back to Beaumont to catch the regular train to which ttielr sleepers were attached. Mayor Graham of Lincoln and two of his party were "lost in Che shuffle" and missed the tralo. Tiho people of Port Arthur were full of re sources , however , and a special wes made up In short order and the mayor aad his lit tle party were forwarded to Houston , where they rejoined tbe main party. There was a well authenticated rumor in circulation which eald that the delinquents were pat into a freight car labeled "Perifhable Goods [ Doa't Sidetrack ! " and carried through to i Houston co fast time. The main party returned to Houston and remained there until the following morning , when It left at an early hc-ur for Galveston. The Oleander City bad made the most elab orate preparations for the entertainment of the delegation from the north. AVhta the approach of She train wns made known by the whittle of the locomotive as It left tbe long bridge .all the whistle * In town broke loose and the air was filled with the thrill shrieks of big wblstles and little whistles. This warning brought out a large crowd of t-ho business men of Galvcatca and when the depot was reached the visitors were taken la charge by the delegation of GalveKouIans and escorted at once to the wiarf , where a snrall steamer was txvirdwl snd the visitors carried alons the entire length of the water front and then out into tbe rolling watere of the gulf , pan : the life saviog station add through tbe jetties. The rolling of tbe boat upset tbe internal economy of some of the Xeliraslitns , but no serious results followed. When the wb rf was reached oa the re- turn trip the part } ' boarded street curs and traveled all over town oa fast time , vlelt- Ing the * Gartenvereln , a luxuriant garden be- longing to a private club , -where the green foliage end beautiful flowers in full bloom delighted .tho eyes of tbe visitor * , who h&d just left a foot of mow behind them. From hero the party went to Woolara's lake , where an old-fashioned oyster roast bad been In pn-paratlon. No time was loat la githertag around the long tables and tbe Galvestonl'.as ' Ulood aghast at tbe unfathomable capacity ol the Xebraikdne. Raw oysters were ladled out 1 with a quart dipper and the w/jy they dls- i appeared excited tbe wonder aad amazemenl ! of tbe southerners. Tbe fried oysters shared 1 tbe same fate , with no apparent dln.-inutlca , In the demand , cud then tbe hosts tried ojs- I te-r * roat'ted in tbe pan. Tiiest were a llule t rich for the Kc-braskans. but they "stayed In ; the gsme" with a persistency worthy of a i better caute. By tola time tb ? oytters i routed In the abell were ready for consump- i tlon end tbe Galvr-ilonlam abandoned ! ' efforts to keep Ibeir guests supplied with the j prepared article.

HOTV HP DenK vrltli 11 IMnymntc Grown. I'll Into n Srccgrdlnnliht. Senator Mills has a new story about Lin coln. It was told to him by n son of John L. Helm of Kentucky , who lives in Corsl- cana. "Old John L. Helm , " said the senator to the Washington -Post mnn. "was a famous character In KtntucUy. Ho wns. If I re member rightly , a. governor of the state , but at any rate his position was a most prominent one. When the civil war came on Helm was n rabtd secessionist. Ho could not praise the south too ftlhly. nnd could not heap enough abuse upon the north. He was too old to go Into the war wltCi his sons , and remained home , dolnjr all ho could to help the confederate cause and harass the Yankees wao Invaded the state. Finally he became so obstreperous that Ui federal general wlio was In command near Helm's home put him In prison. The old irmn's age. the high position which he occu. Tied in ttoo stnte , his wide connection , nnd especially his Inability to do any actual liarm. were all pleaded In his extenuation tind he was rcleasc-d. Instead of profitlr. by the warning , tihe old man became moro persistent than ever In hln course , Onca more he was clapped Into jail. This hap pened two or three times , and filially , while he was still lucked up. the matter was brougi.it to the attention of the federal authorities , livrn Pnsident Lincoln wits nppealed to , and atked to commit the ar dent southerner to an Indefinite confine ment in order that he might bo curbed. "Lincoln listened to the statement of Ui case wlili more than usual Interest. Then he leaned back and be tan to gptnk with a Hmlle upon his face. 'i'ou are talking nbout old man John HeimT W" ' ! . did you know unat I used to live , when 1 wns n boy , In Helm's town ? He WBB kind to me. H seemed to like me as a boy. anil he n < ver lost an oppartunlly to help me. He pecmeil to think , ' * ald Lincoln with another of h.s almost pathetic nmlles , 'that I would prob ably make oomethlnK of a man. Why. when 1 went out to Illinois , poor anil un known , that man eav * me the money to pay my way nnd keep mo unlll I got a start. John Helm ? O. ye , I know him. And I know what J owe to him. I think I can fix his case. ' "And then1 said Senator Mil's , "Lincoln went to B desk and wrote a few words. The bit of writing Is treasured in the HMm household to tlais day. This Is what tha president wrote : " "I titrtby pardon John L. Helm of Ken tucky for all that ho lias ever done ccalnst the United States , and all that h < ever will do. AUUAHAJJ LINCOLN. ' " A .Soft fee-ill. A young : woman recently found hemlf alone with a youn ? man in the compart ment of un English railway train. During the progress of the Journey h < * looked at her in a curious way , and Hhe at once con cluded that he had murderous designs upon her. Finally he approached hc-r , and put lila right hand In hU overcoat pocket. Was ho feeling for a. knife or a revolver ? Sprlnglnc to her feet the frightened travel * ler faced him In despair. "What do yoj ineanT" h cried , half fainting with fear. Ho Ijtnt toward her , amll&d trimly , and said. "Kxcute me , madam , I offer you ten thousand apologleg if I have alarmed you. fSuch a thing wan furthest from my thciuchtn , but the fact ! . I have to alight at tht next elation , and ! nce you entered the train you have been Bitting on my hat.
