The cuerciqcs wore held In the main rotunda of , tho. building , and were heard by an audi ence of complimentary proportions , In which old soldiers and their families were In a majority.A number'of ' excellent addresses were mingled with enjoyable Vocal selections by Leo G , Kratz and Miss Frances Iloeder. Mayor Frank B. Moores welcomed the or ganization to Omaha In a brief address , In which ho spoke earnestly of the Invaluable services -that they had performed for their country both In the 60s and during the more recent war. Ho presented them with the golden key to the city and assured them that no body that had visited the city was received with a more cordial welcome. Mrs. Abbio A. Adams of Superior , de partment president for Nebraska , added'a very graceful greeting In behalf ot the de partment , and thcsn sentiments wcro recog nized In an appropriate manner by Mrs , Rosalie U. Condon. The principal address was by Mrs. Flo Jameson Miller , national president of the organization , who spoke with much feel ing and not a little eloquence. Presldeut Miller nald that on the preceding day while tha achievements of the army and navy were being extolled , t < he had waited In vain to hear ono ot the orators say a word In bchalt of the women. It was left to the Cuban , Seuor Quesnda , to pay a well do- curved tribute to what had been done by American womanhood in this decisive strug gle. She added that she did not wish to detract from the honors that had been won by the American soldiers and sailors , but Eho did wish to emphasize the heroic sacri fices aud services of American women , The speaker then referred briefly to the history ot warfare In this country and A Woman's Words Afflicted with Many Diseases- Weak Stomach , Hourt Trouble Llfo was Misery until Hood's Sarsaparllla Curad.

This conflict revolutionized all Ideas of war oh land and tea. Ground was won ami lost arid won again and nothing In history has over equated It , War Is no now thing. Every century , has been ushered In by a great conflict , and heroes have been cradled in the lap of every age. The civil war was the first that had been waged from motives of humanity. In previous conflicts .ambition had lighted the fuse , but every gun from Sumter to Appomattox echoed the 'declara tion' that God was tired of' slnrcs. She commented on the galaxy of heroes that the war had left to tbo country ami on how few o theni were left. Tbo Cuban war had also been Inspired by motives' bf humanity and Its heroes are still with us.

Final actloa upon these subjects was postponed to the mc-ctlng of the com mittee which will be held In Denver just be j fore the convention , The following resolu tion was presented and adopted : Whereas , Complaint has bucn made to the National Live Stock association that the va rious railway corporations delivering live stock at the Union stock yards of Chicago are continuing to collect a terminal charge of $2 per car on live stock shipments to the detilmcnt of itho members , of the associa i tion , notwithstanding the Interstate Com I merce commission 'by a decision rendered !

This National Live Stock association hereby pledges Itself to a policy ot open markets , with no discrimination against any shipper , with no terminal charge .at such markets aud with just aud qqultuble freight rates to and from the same ; with n minimum charge thereto for yardage , feed and service.

At yesterday's battle General Shatter and c. number of other army officers occupied frpnt seats In the reviewing stand and. with a. great deal of Interest wltnessed'the light bptwecn the Sioux and their allies and the Dlackfeot and their allies. As has fre- auentfy happened before the Sioux wore i mmanded by Gocs-to-War and the des tinies of the IJlackfeet and the men who had cst their lot with them were looked after by Dig Uravo. It was the eamo old story. General Shatter has scon all kinds of fightIng - Ing , but the battle of yesterday was some- thlng new. After the last shot had been fired 'Captain Mercer lined all of his In dians. both young and old , male and female , UD In front of the reviewing stand. There they gave three rousing cheers for the gen eral , who climbed down from the reserved scat section to bo the principal In holding the reception.

The whtto people were just as anxious to meet General Shatter as were the In dians mul after the reception off the red men he mounted the steps nf the grandstand and there spent half an hour receiving the men and women who clustered about him.

All the people connected with the Ne braska exhibits are making extensive prep arations for the observance ot Nebraska day , which has been set for October 19 , at which time it is contended that not less than 00,000 people from the state will be In 'attendance. There will bo exercises at the Auditorium , but ns yet the program has not- been completed. The railroads have made a low rate for the occasion and this alone , It Is said , will bring In a crowd that will bo a record breaker , leaving Presiden tial day out of consideration.

SIIAFTER T1IE HERO _ ( Continued from First i'age. ) for peace , all within n short period of less than four months. Stiiiine on Trmliiccrx. It Is n sad commentary that these brave officers nnd soldiers are returning to thulr own land with more honors accredited by the world than the army of any other nation only to find the polfoncd shafts of partisan traducers. The glory won by them has been too great nnd too strongly Impressed on the nations of the earth to have Its bril liancy and luster bedlmmed by those whet t would use the horrors of war for such ends. The president of this nation Is coinmanr der-ln-chle/ the military nnd naval forces. Durlnp thlH war ho was common- 'der-ln-chlcf , not only In name , but In fact. The campaigns by land and sea wcro dU reeled by him , nnd his constant and cease less watch for the honor ot our nation and the welfare , comfort nnd protection of our hero soldiers and sailors reached from the early hours of morn Into the beginning of another day. His close contact and relation with the departments of government have been such that hlo fund of Information nnd knowledge- details Is marvelous nnd phenomenal. Ills sorrow for the dead , and solicitude for the living , of these bravo and courageous defenders of the rights otnuuir kind , Is that of a father. To the secretary of war , to the secretary of the navy , to the major general command ing thu nrtny , the hero nf Porto Rico ; Miles , the hero of Santiago , Shatter , the hero of Manila. Mcrrltt , to the gallant officers ot the ami } ' and the navy nnd their Intrepid men , belongs the honor and glory of the brilliant victory In Cuba , I'orto Hlco and the Philippines , unprecedented In all the world's history. The nation will ever sing songs of praise for the valor and gallantry 'nt these sons of America. The braver } ' 'arid couragcousness of our officers and focii as * founded the world. ' ' Wo have among our fallen hcroea 'of the navy a Paul Jones , a Perry , n Farragut and n Porter , nnd now wo have tbose living heroes Dewey , Sampson and Schley. Whenever' the nation has wanted n man for the hour , It has risen In Its wisdom and found him. When the country called for such men the people responded with Washington , Lincoln , ' Grant nnd Garllcld. In this struggle for human rights the emer gency called for one to direct the nation , and from seventy millions of people the masterful ono -was selected. It was his hand that guided us to victory. It was he who placed the nation among the first powersof ; the earth , the commander-ln-chlrf ot the army nnd navy , the president * of the United States , McKlnley. CliluuMu Mtnlnter'H Aililrt'N.i , Wu Ting Fong , the Chinese minister , was given a reception no less cordial , and hln happy allusion to the fact that while the speakers who had preceded him were men whoso dutyIt Is to prepare for war , It la ha ! mission to try aud preserve peace , pro- ; vokcd another approving demonstration. Continuing , ho spoke briefly of the manner In which the exposition had been brpugbt to the attention of the Chinese government a year ago , and declared that his trip . to Omaha had proved a most enjoyable expe rience. Ho had observed the vast ex tent of this country and the richness of its soil , but the greatest thing he had learned was at the exposition. He expressed wonder that a city only forty-five or flfty years old had proved to bo ono of thn moat prosperous cities he had over se n. "I have seen many expositions , " he added , "but this la the best I have ever seen , It shows 'thegreatness bf your country and the energy and jierse- vcranco of your people. As the representa tive of the oldest empire In the world , I greet you In Its name and I hope we ; will Eomo lmo be able to receive you In my own country. " In conclusion ho referred to the pleasant relations that exist between this couujry and China and expressed the ho'pe that this pleasant condition may always'con- tinue.

It was my honor to salute the reprewntatlves yesterday. Todny It Is my ' aamo privilege to offer tribute ito that sol'dlcr who went to my native land to auffor not only the bullets of the enemy , but that greater terror disease. We shall ever re member that that sword was unsheathed for the liberty of our country. I remember when 1 for the first time shook his hand. I remember when ho de parted for my country. 1 have again greeted him today. J find that for every pound of llesh he has lost ho has gained many years of Immortality , I thank the United States for Its. army and navy. I could not leave this metropo lis of the west without expressing ray gratitude to the state Of Nebraska. Ib AvaB a representative of this state who flrit'tpok ' the part of our oppressed country. It U ? agreeable to mo to say that Cuba has never had a better friend than Senator Allen of Nebraska. Who was it that explained from one end of this country to the other how our people , Ill-clad nnd ill-armed , were dying of starva tion ? It was Senator Thurston. And when the mighty army of thn American people struck for our redemption Cuba learned to love another Nebrasknn. It was he who put In the shade the charge Dalnklavu , As sistant Secretary ot War Melklejohn. His heart Is as hie ; as the heart that should beat In such a manly bosom. Never has there been n hand outstretched from our Island asking for a piece of bread that It has not been filled. Today Is devoted to i.cace the eagle Is at rest. May It be so until there Is another country to bo delivered from oppression. War Is only to bo excused when the veins of the natlcn are opened as they were at Lexington , at Gettysburg or Santiago : The Cubans have fought enough. There Is not a flower in our land which docs not grow from the tombs of our martyrs. But now a new republic arises. The Cubans will prove to the world that they have learned much from the United States. The time Is coming when fair Columbia will greet the republic of Cuba , which will come to you with love and affection and tenderness. And when I bid you goodbye my volco chokes with grati tude and all I can" say. is .thanks , thanks , to the great American nation. Senator Thnrntbn' Clone * . The exercises clpsed wlth'fin address by Senator Thurston , who said : Wo are gathered here'ori1 a day dedicated to civil government , 'the 'only guaranty of liberty , personal safety or national i > ros- perlty. Four written documents stand as the guaranty of the rights of the people. The ilrst was the Mucna Cbarta. Then his- tcry moved on and the second was the Declaration ot Independence , but It was In complete. It only meant that people of ono race , ono color , were free and Independent. When Abraham Lincoln issued the Emanci pation Proclamation he rounded out the con stitutional guaranty. But It referred to the people of our nation only. The United States issued a declaration ot War against Spain and UIOEO who voted for It have 110 apologies and no regrets. It was God's war. The victories were God's victories. When the American Hue went up the hill at Santiago It meant * a-bupremer destiny for the American people -thanr-we had ever an ticipated in our lives bofore. It meant an American flag on every public building in the land , where It would , appeal to all the world. Mother of Republics , her lullaby has been sung over every crudlo In the world.

It had been planned to havo'lhls reception In the rooms of the Commercial club , but owing to a misunder standing hurried arrangements had to bo made at the last hour for other quarters and the council chamber was chosen as being the next most suitable place. The change necessitated many little Inconveniences In the way of accommodations and may have caused a. smaller attendance , but It In no wise dampened the ardor of any ot the women prcecnt or lessened ono whit the pleasures of the evening. The reception was held to allow members ol the Relief corps on opportunity to for- uiairy meet the recently elected state offi cers.

Prof. Willis Moore , head of the Weather bureau , experienced a small cyclone yes terday morning1 in his room In the Mlllard hotel. The way Mr. Moore tells about ) It Is this : "About 8 o'clock In the morning I heard somebody moving around in the room. 1 was. awake , , though I had my eyes shut and I distinctly felt the Intruder going through my clothes. I thought It was my wife and kept my eyes shut all the tighter for fear she might make me get up If she thought I was awake. When I finally did get up to dress I discovered that the thief bad gotten away with all the cash In my possession , amounting to $ C8. Strange to say It was the second visitation , the same cyclone ha\ Ing struck mo to , the tune ot some $3 the day 'before.

The light was gen- orally against the continuance of the pres ent .majority on the Uoard of 'Education , but the returns Indicate that the majority faction won , nnd may be able tonight to nominate a ticket , which , If elected , will Increase the strength of that faction. Ot the five retiring members of the board four , Jordan , Klowlt , Gratton and Dennis , were class'ed with the majority element and Irey with the minority. Jordan and Klowlt have secured their ward delegations for re- nomination , Gratton was defeated , nnd Den nis was not a candidate for re-election. Irey nlso has his ward delegation. The Third and Fifth wards have no avowed candidate , nnd the Sixth , Seventh , Eighth nnd Ninth wards will present now men for the positions. "R. C. Jordan carried the First ward 2 to 1 and more over the opposition ticket , which was supposed to support R. K. Pax- ton. Doth the parties carried on an encr- ' , ge'tlo canvass and when the polls were j closed 470 votes had been counted , the big gest number over cast in a Board of Educa- | tlou primary in the history of the ward. I Of this number seventy-nine were , cast by women. The straight Jordan ticket was elected by a majority that hovered about the 150 mark , the highest number cast for an anti-Jordan delegate being 169 , and tha lowest for the Jordan delegation 30C. The fight was a strictly party affray , for a total ot 410 straight tickets were cast , Jordan getting 287 ot them. Despite ( ho warmth of the contest there was no trouble about the polls. In the Second ward there was no contest. Fifty votes were cast , and thn election was without Incident. The delegation will sup port Andrew Klowlt In the first ballots of the convention. After that the delegates say they will follow their Individual pref erences. The total vote cast In the Third ward was fifteen , all colored. No Interest whatever was manifested lu the election , nnd but ono candidate tor delegate showed up at the polls , ho being Frank Heacock. In the Fourth and Fifth wnrds there were no contests , and a small volt was cast In each , there being little interest. The Fourth Is for G. G. Irey for re-election , but the Fifth has no candidate. In the Sixth ward Dr. Frederick F. Teal carried the day by a small plurality. There was a warm contest nnd 481 votes were cast , ot which the women contributed 12'J. The latter largely supported the doctor. The low man on the. winning ticket had a majority of ono over the high man on thu defeated ticket , and the highest majority was only four. The delegation from the Seventh ward vu8 instructed for Charles S. Hnyward over Fred J. Smith by a strong majority. A heavy vote was registered all day , and 28fi votes had been east when the polls closed. Of these Hayward received 130 on straight ballots to 64 of his opponents. The women ot the ward felt little Interest in the issue And vcro reprcspntgd by no votps , whU- ; There was a rather one-tided but lively fight in the Eighth ward , where C. E. Black and J. 11. West each had a delegation in the field. Black won out in a canter , his delegation receiving 211 straight ballots out of a total vote of 417. The women participated quite freely In the voting , nnd Black's victory was In some measure duo to the activity of his supporters in bringing .out the feminine vote. . There were three candidates In the Ninth , and Arthur M. Cowio was the winner , re ceiving 138 votes , to 31 for E. G. McGll- ton nnd 13 for O. P. Schrum.

There wcro plenty of brave men who-were of little use when the time come , because they took less care ot their health than they did of their musket. Malaria and other fevers soon picked out these men much more unerringly than the enemy's sharpshooters. Ono set of men went about keeping well In a businesslike way. They took Palne's celery compound at the first Indications of Intestinal troubles , weakness , or when fatigued and liable to fevers. They Ubcd Paliie's celery compound to purify their blocd and put their health on a firm basis as soon as they made up their minds to join the service. Corporal Deckwlth thinks there was a great deal of needless sickness among the volunteers. At Chlckamuuga many of his messmates followed his example and forti fied themselves against disease by Palno's celery compound , and not u man of them had malaria or fever of any sort or spent a day In the hospital. Corporal Beckwith writes : Camp Olympla , Sept. 17 , 1898. Dear Sirs When I see so many ot my poor comrades coming home'looklng'fit only , for a hospital cot , I give thanks to Palno'a celery compound for the fact that I went through my enlistment without any doctor's medicine , and am today oven healthier than when I went to Chlckanmuga.
