General C. r. Manderson telM a story
which Is a dellcato compliment to the cou
Tersatlonal ability of Governor Roos?vclt.
"It was In tho campaign of 'SS," tald
he. "Ono day N. K. Griggs, the lawyer
poet of Beatrice, came to my headquarters
and asked for a letter of Introduction to
Mr. Roosevelt.
" 'Why. I'll do better than that.' I hald.
'I'll take you down and Introduce you to
him In person.'
"So wc put on our hat 4 and In ten mlnutct
Toet Griggn had realized ono of tho am
bitions of his life. Then, In the course of a
few days, It was the good fortune of the
Beatrice bard to form ono of a party of
gentlemen, of whom Roescvolt was the lead
ing spirit, who took a drive through the
city, vkltlng several points of Interest,
among others National cemetery. Griggs had
often expressed a wish to seo the National
cemetery. It was one of tho attractions, he
said, that brought him to Washington.
"Well, Grlggii sat In the back beat with
Roosevelt and started tho conversation by

"At the conclusion of the drive Griggs
thanked Roosevelt fcr the pleasure It had
afforded him and was about to depart when
he wan reminded of something.
"'Hut how about the National cemetery'
he said. 'I thought we were to visit that.'
"'So we were, we've driven all through
It.' answered Roosevelt.
"Grlgga scratched hla head and then re

It rauit have been a young cyclone that
hit the North Nebraska list yesterd&y, th !
way it tumbled things together, dropping '
Miss Denitt after a long period of glory down
to second place, and sinking the occupant of
tecond place down to fifth, but there arc
more cyclones hidden In the sweet ozone of
North Nebraska and they are liable to mako
their debut almost any old day without
prevloue announcement.
In Omaha Miss Parrlsh still holds court
In the realms of the celestials, but tho
small margin of majority, unless balanced
by large slcevei, renders her liable to a trip

Fire toially destroyed the fe J wueVus:
of .V ') .r 11 Rudif r"i m,l 'wo .ot cges
belonging to Frank Shllahan. at Twenty
fourth and Q yesterlay nftermcn. Thi
total loss will be In the neighborhood of
".000. U was about i o'clock when fire w is
discovered In tho Rushforth warehouse and a
telephone alarm ent In. On acccunt of ths
Immense amount of Inflammable material m
the storehouse the llamtn srreaJ tnp'.dlv
and by the time the fire depar;mcnt arrived
the Interior of the building was one masj
of flames and the roof was about ready to
fall. In an Incredibly Bhort space of time
the flames spread from the feed warehouse
to tho two cottages on the south owned by
Shllahan, and theso were nlso i!eatroeJ.
For a time the row of ten cottages belong
ing to James and Joe Koutsky at Twenty
f0,lrlh nrt rt .treets i .-,., i .
ing destroyed and as a was one of ths
houses was damaged to the extent of ?nrt.
When Chief Smith and Afslstant Chief
Holland arrived they aw at a glance thJt
help was needel and a general alarm w s
turned in. The fire fighting forces of Ar
mour's. Swift's. Hammond's and the I'nlnn
Stock Yards company promptly rcapandd
and rendered valuable assistance. It was
deemed ndvlsabtc to have the Cudthv and
Omaha plants' fire departments remain on
duty at their respective houses In otdrr 'o
protoct thp paeklnR industries In ca-c of an-
1 ot her fire
1 l " , , ,. . , ,
..l uiu, Hum uuiuilli Uiiy HI1U rHIU
In the warehouse was Intense and for a time
kept tho firemen at a distance, but they
gradually worked up to the burning build
ings and by dint ot hard work confined the
(lames to the buildings mentioned. During
the fire, which lasted about three haurs, sev
eral firemen were overcome with rmokc and
were compelled to ,-etlre temporarily In
order to secure a breath of fresh air.
great deal of excitement was displacd
by those who lived In the Koutsky cottages,
as It was feared that the entire half block
would be destroyed. Carpets were hastily
torn from the floors and furniture moved
Into the street and In a very few minutes
very little If anything was left In any cf he
surrounding houses, chief Mitchell was on
hand with a detail of rollce and tho prop
erty which had been dumped promiscuously
into tho street was guarded until the own
ers saw lit to move back Into their houtej
after all danger was over.
The heaviest Ices will fall on Arthur Rush
forth. His property destroyed was worth
$5,500. with Insurance on only a po tl-n. He
carried M.SOO Insurance on the warehouse
proper. J100 on a detached building In the
rear and $300 on the contents, which In
cluded both feed and coal.
James Zaloudek occupied one of the cot
tages destroyed, while C. Small resided In
the other. These homfs were worth aboil'
$600 each and were Insured. A Jarge ror
tion of the contents were Kaved by the po
llco and others who assisted in removing
everything possible.
On account of lines of hose tclng laid
across Q street at the Intersection of
Twenty-fourth street car service around ih)
loop was discontinued and Omaha tra'n
used the old O street "Y." All service on the
Albright line was discontinued for a couple
of hours.
Asldo from the I051.es mentioned, the In
dividual loss to those who hastily moved
will bo quite large, as stoves, plcturrs anl
