Mrs , iMarth * A. Shute , fcoretarjr of tho.
Colorado State Horticultural society and a
member of the Colorado Exposition commls-
lon , bis reached her home In Denver and
has opened her batteries on the apathetic
people of the Centennial Mate In a manner
which threatens to smoke some of them
out In eho.-t order. ( Mru. Shuto spent sev-
bral daya In Omaha recently making ar
rangements for tbo extensive horticultural
exhibit which will to made by the various
fruit raising sections of Colomdo under her
general supervision , and during her visit
ho took occasion to thoroughly Investigate
everything In connection with the exposi
tion which had any bearing upon Colorado's
participation In the affair. She Inspected the
grounds and buildings thoroughly and be
fore she left on a flying trip for the taat
nay thoroughly prated on all the affairs of
the exposition. She declared In no uncer
tain manne. that her state was neglecting Us
beet opportunities and promised that nho
would stir the people when she returned.
How well she has kept her promloo la
ehown by an Interview with her which ap
peared In.tho Denver Republican on Mon
day of this week. This Interview was at'
follows :
"If Colorado neglects the opportunity to
exhibit her varied resources nt Omaha It
will b ; .to Its lasting1 disgrace. " Raid ' .Martha
A. Shute , secretary of the St-ato Horticul
tural soclc-ty , who ro'UrnP I from a visit to
the site , of the Transmlnslrslppl und Inter
national Exposition yesterday morning.
Mrs. Shute la a member of the state com
mission , and It la duo almost entirely to her
tiiniest effort that the pfor > ocd horticultural
exhibit Is In Hiich excellent condition.
"Wb have engaged and paid for 1,898 square
feet of space In the Horticultural building , "
raid Mrs. Shut : . "A square foot of space
for every year on the calendar. The Ar
kansas valley and the western slope are
almost entirely rtpponslb'o for the success
of my visit to Omaha. Without the assist
ance of J. E. Gddlng nnd Georgi Swlnk
of Rocky Ford and John S. Charlton of
Mesa county the horticultural Interests of
.this Bta.io . would not have..had us creditable
a display n ? wo nrci now assured of.
"J have seen nothing- print which nde
quntely describes the grandeur nnd macnlll-
ctnco of thla prop < x:0 exposition. It la on

eeen to bo appreciated , . The buildings are
pimply enormous and they compare favor
ably wJth the structures nt Chicago. Of
course they have no forty-acre buildings nt
Omaha , but all the other * are fully as well
adapted to the needs as invro the World's

COLORADO'S GOOD CHANCES.

"I nm sure If our citizens could hear the

"Just let TOO say here that I think the Ag

The opening services of the meeting of tbe
Omaha presbytery were held last night at
the Osstcllar Street Presbyterian church.
Mr. N. M. Iluddy welcomed the vlultlng
members on behalf of the Caetellar Street
congregation cad was- followed by Revr
Edwin Act on of Waterloo , the retiring mod
erator.
Dr. Aston's addreru was a very practical
one , treating of the cttltude the pulpit should
take toward the diverse reforms and revolu
tionary measures which are seeking the ap
probation of the clergy. The speaker In-
s'sted that It Is the plain duty of the clergy
man to preach the gcspel as revealed In
the bfble , cod not to be led away by every
passing fancy. In many ccso ? the public
seems to demand en'tertalnment ' from the
pulpit and preachers are often hired accordIng -
Ing to their ability to draw crowds. For-
tUDitely there are few preachers who yield
to ibis clamor for sensational .preaching.
Every mm who bar ) some new method of
reforming society immediately trlea to gain
the support of the pulpit , and then , If th'n
oiipport la refusad him , he accuses the pulpit
t'f being mercenary anil unmindful of Its
duty. Extraneous affairs do not beor& ! In
the pulpit , and the church Is wise In hold-
tag aloof from them.
The word of God , said the speaker , la end
mmt bo the center and life of aM preacfi-
Ing. Humanity needs the bible and Its com
forts ; and nothing cL > a can take Its place * .
Men have offered panaceas for all human
Ills , but they have been found wcot'og. The
preacher should expound the gcr'pcl In such
a way that his hearers will realize what a
woSnderfu ! book It U and not how power
ful the preacher ls <
After Dr. Aston's address- { lie roll of the
members of the prcabytery was called and
the meeting proceeded lo elect a moderate ? .
The name of Dr. Laurie of the Omaha Theo
logical seminary was the.only one presented
end he wda elected by acclamation. Dr.
Astcn welcomed hlo successor In a few words
and Dr. Lowrle expressed his pleasure at
having such an honcr bestowed upon him.
Rev. Mr. Hawley and R. E. L. Hayea werb
elected as clerks of the presbjtery and the
meeting adjourned till thU morn'.ng. f

INTRODUCING THE FOOD TO EUROPE
Cora'rake CWnrphy'a Experience Re-

Auxiliary 1 Orvanlced.
Several prominent apoatlea of maize as
a food product addraesed the meeting of the
Maize propaganda yesterday afternoon and
explained ; eomo of the problems which such
_
an organization must face. ' "Colcnel Clark
E.on Carr , who , Is president of the propaganda
and ono of Its chief promoters , pointed out
In a forcible manner the absolute Ignorance
of the uses of corn In Europe vand told
of the effort which la being made In his
state to teach the use of thla Important
product.
In 1891 Colonel Carr w s minister to Den
mark. It'occurred to him one day that he
would relish eorao corn .bread nd he was
surprised to turn tbat DO ccrn meal was
to bo had In Copenhagen and tbat tbe dealth
ers had never heard of such a thing. Shortly
after this Colonel C. J. Murphy came to
Denmark , sent by the United States government -
ernment to show the value of corn. Ccrn
meal wus left with the. dealers and dis
tributed through the city , together wltb
reclpce for making It Into various dishes ,
but with poor Bucceea. People would cot
cat It. Colonel Murphy thought that the
prominent people of Copenhagen might be
Influenced Into trying- our corn proudcts If
a banquet were given at which nothing but
corn dishes were served. With Colonel Carr's
afslstance Invitations were Iwued and for two
wosks Oolbnel Murphy labored wllfa the Dan
ish cooks to teach them how to prepare th
dishes Americans arc no fond of. The ban
quet came off and was a great success. It
was probably the most American meal which
was ever served In Denmark. Nothing was
served which waa not produced In this coun
try. These foods cnco forced Into their
mouths , the Danes acquired a taste for them ,
but the demonstration was at a time when
corn was very high and because of the fact
that corn meal was more expensive than
flno Buda-Pcsth wheat flour , the attempts
wsre not as successful as ' .hey might have
been otherwise. Colonel Murphy has Intro
duced corn Into every country la Europe ,
and hopes to make It the leading food with
persons who require a cheap , healthful diet.
OTHER USES FOR CORN.
Coknel Carr also explained the various
purposes to which corn lo being put in re
cent years. In glucose works the consump
tion of corn Is enormous ; It U supplanting
malt In breweries ; the oil of corn Is use\ )
largely In making a preparation which la
superior to pure rubber tor" .bicycle- tires , and
an expert alcohol manufacturer maintains
that alocbol can be made from corn oo
cheaply that It will displace alls for Illumi
nating purposes.
G. S. "Furs " man of Galestmrg. 111. , who Is a
raiser of corn and particularly Interested In
the corn market , stated some facts which
show very clearly that corn raisers are neg-
Iect.'r > 3 their opportunities when they do not
make more effort to Introduce their product
itito foreign countries. More than Cl per cent
of the worU's population knows actually
nothing about the use of corn , ( but are In
nead of a cheap food product. American
farmers raise 2,500,000,000 bushels of corn
annually. This corul Is often sold for less
than the cos > t of prcductlon .because no for
eign market has been sought. Udder Im
proved conditions producers of corn are rais
ing twice as many bushels to the acre as
.formerly. . The market Is Etagnated In this1
country and an export trade .must be se
cured.
B. D. Snow , .tho rational secretary of the
propjganda , explained la detail the plans
which have been followed ly the Illinois
auxiliary , with a view of suggesting > how
the 'Nc/braska / auxiliary might best proceed.
In Illinois an organization was effecteJ In
each senatorial district and the establish
ment of maize societies In each township
was encouraged in order to secure local sym
pathy. ( Much Interest was evinced < by the
farmers and their Influence was secured lo
this way In securing legislation friendly to
corn products. 'For example corn was not
reccgulzet aside from a sweeping generali
zation of agricultural products which are to
be exhibited by the government at the Paris
exposition In 1900. Members of the ( Maize
propaganda noticed this. They wrote to tbe
breeches of the organization throughout the
country and through the Influence that was
brought to bear on thetn by their constit
uents , certain congressmen secured legis
lation which assures a special exhibit of
corn and corn products.
NEIBRASMA ORGANIZES.
< R. M. Allen cf Ames was chairman of the
meeting and .through his efforts the Ne
braska auxiliary was formed and officers
elected. R. W. Furnas was chosen ifor pres
ident and a finance committee composed of
D. M. . Dean , J. 'E. ' Utt , Chauncey Abbott
and President Furnas was elected and In
structed to co-operate with the national as
sociation In securing funds for an ex li To It
of com products at the 'Transmlsslsslppi
( Exposition. O. C. Holmes and George W.
IHoIdrege were also elected as additional
members of the state executive committee.
At present It Is not certain just what sort
of showing the propaganda can make at tbe
exposition. However , the national associa
tion will have an exhibit even It the state
committee does not contribute any funds.
One of the chief features of the exhibit will
'be ' a cooking demcrvttratlon which will show
the various uses that "can bo made of corn.
A Good Medicine ,
It will not be a mirprlss to any who are at
all familiar with the good qualities of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy , to know that people
everywhere take pleasure In relating their
experience la the use of that splendid medi
cine and telling of the benefit they have re
ceived from It , ot bad colds It has cured , ol
threatened attacks of pneumonia It has
averted and of tbe children It baa saved from
attacks of croup and whooping cougb. It Is
a grind , good medicine and nab merited all
the praise It has received.

Mrs. F. A. Cross of Seattle , who has made
several trips to Skagway and othv Alaskan
points since the gold strike , was In Omtba
resterday looking over the exposition and
left ID the evening for Seattle , from which
[ > lace she will call Immediately for Alaska.
Last Thanksgiving time Mrs. Cross returned
from Skaguay en the same ves > Ml which car
ried Jack Dal ton , SwItUater Bill , Jack
Kavln , Jim Boyle Mid other men who have
been prominent citizens of Dawson City and
other Klondike camps. Mrs. Crccs sajs
that this crowd must 'be considered a
pretty bird lot back In the states , but that
they are society leaders In tbs Klondike ,
aiv3 that la a voyage from Alaska to Seattle
they proved themselves capable of being
very gentlemanly. The ship Mrs. Crcea
returned on. . at that time carried < J200.000
worth of gold , which was the property of
thlrty-flve miners returning for the winter.
Mort cf these men are now on their way
back to Alaska an ! will spend the season
there la hunting for gold.
"The hardships of crossing the paeseo are
greatly exaggerated , " said Mrs. Cross. "To
a person who has gocd health and plenty of
money a trip through the passes and to the
gold field ought to be nothing more than
a mere pleasure trip. A new pass two been
opened by Jack Dalton which will be much
be than the Whltei paes at Skaguay or
th Chllkoot Pars at Talya. This pass l&
at a place called H-ilnes. ' Mission find la
fifteen miles this side of Skaguay. By thio
route the distance to the gold fields Is
only 550 miles and the other routes are 800
miles. The Rothschilds have bought forty
acres of ground at the mouth of the new
pa , and It la thought that this Is the place
w ( the first railroad Into the Interior will
be built. "
Mrs. Cress sajs that vessels have been
put into ACaskan service which are totally
udseaworthy and have not been used for
years. Persons should avoid anything but
the o-'tablLshed line of steamers , as the
others have pilots who are new at the busi
ness and frequently overload their vessels.
The Alaskan shore Is very rocky and dca-
gerous and competent men are required to
avoid tbe shoals.

If you are a short , fat , good natured fellow , built
on the Tom Reed or Qrovor Cleveland plan , and if
you've ' been in the habit of paying all the way from
1.25 to two dollars for your white shirty , don't do it
any more. Come in hero to The Nebraska Shirto-
rium and we will show you as good a white shirt as
any man sells cut to lit you _ exactly , and .we will
sell you one if you want it for 7f > cents. That may
seem too low a price for a good shirt but you want to
remember that The Nebraska has a particular hobby
for selling good things low. These shirts a good
thing. They're cut extra large in neckband , extra
wide in arm holes , extra stout in body and extra
short in sleeve. They are made by the same man
who makes all of our white shirts , and so far as fit ,
finish , material and make up are concerned there is
no difference between them and the shirts which are
usually sold to fat men -for 1.50. In our opinion
they give as good satisfaction as if they cost two dollars
lars and if you are inclined to doubt that statement
we hope you will doubt it just enough to try one.
The proof of the pudding is in eating it not in
chewing the string. "
