"With Imposing religious ceremonies the
eornorstono of the Catholic church of tho
parish of the Sacred Heart was laid yes
tcrday afternoon by tho Hlght Hev. Mch
rd Scannrll, bishop of Omaha, assisted by
many priests of the diocese.
At 3:30 o'clock tho Philharmonic quartet
!bgnn tho opening lines of "Bright King
.of Glory" and tho procession started from
the homo of Father Judge, the rector of
tho parish, to the southeast corner of the
building, whero tho cornerstone, previously
plncrd In position over tho foundation,
was to ho laid. The procession was headed
by tho master of ceremonies, followed by
-Bishop Scanncll in full canonicals. Next
amn tho priests from several of tho par
ishes of Omaha and surrounding towns In
tho diocese. These were followed by the
boys of St. Aloyslus' sodality tind the girls
f Ht. Joseph's sodality nf tao church.
Arriving at tho cornerstone tho pro
cession halted nnd tho formal blessing of
the alone aud the edifice, which Is shortly

followed tho other portions ot the cere

"bishop, with responses as In tho litany.
Making the sign of the cross three times
with Iho mason's trowel upon the corner
stone, tho prelate gave the signal for It
to. bo lowered to position and It was placed
upon tho foundation by Oswald l.ondcy
and Harry Johnson. Whllo this was tak
ing placo tho quartet sang a selection,
-which wnR taken up as a recessional as the
-procession returned to tho parochial resi
dence. After tho procession had disbanded the
assembled priests and pcoplo gathered
around the western end of tho new build
ing, where, from a hastily Improvised plat
form, Bishop (llennon, coadjutor of the
sco of Kansas City, delivered the sermon
cif the. occasion.

Arrayed In tho robes ot his ofllco the

nificent nppearnnce, recalling to the mind
Bomu of tho Italian t inters' master
pieces. Ho spoko without notes and lost
nothing of his reputation as ono of tho
leading pulpit orators of the west. He
said In part:
"Wo meet this afternoon lo lay n corner
stone which will bo part of an edifice to
bo dedicated as a tcmplo of tho living
od. Yours Is an auspicious day, a beau
tlfiil Sunday, ns clear as the doctrlno and
as puro as tho light of tho church of our
fathers. You may not all have witnessed
tho ceremony proper to this occasion, but
you rccognlzo In every ceremony a living
fact, which Is and was when tho church
of tlod wns established.
"First, thero Is this wooden cross, as
crudo and unformed as this church build
ing, as crudo as the cross which was fitted
to our Saviour's hands and foot; but later
on, where you now stand, a cross will be
raised to mark completion of this church
not citide, but glided, typical of the tri
umph of that first cross In the hearts ot
men. Brethren, that ross planted there
today Is symbolic, of tho beginning of the
Catholic church. That cross Is found In
he history of the church written by Itself
in tho catacombs, on tho shoulders of the
crusaders, on tho souls of all Christians.
It typifies humility lifted to glory.
"Nations hnvo their heroes whom they
honor upon their festal days, whose names
nro remembered and reveled. We Catholics
havo our heroes, too; names mentioned to
day In the litany. The martyrs who died
long ago for the truth, teachers of the faith
tho confessors, tho depositories of doctrine,
tho pontiffs, tho saints.
Sfnuo Itoprosoiitn a I 'net mid n Mjinluil
"This Btono laid today represents a fact
nnd a symbol. As a fart, first, It marks
he commencement of this edlflct dedicated
to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, mong tho
rraycrs to bo offered up In this building are
prayers for those whoso generosity has made
Its construction possible. It Is unnecessary
for mo to nppoal to tho generosity of the
Catholics of Omaha, but still as a Catholic
and a bishop I shall take pride in seeing
Uio completion ot this beautiful temple to
tho truo god. To say to Catholics, 'bo gen
erous,' is unnecessary. They know how
much the church stands for in their lives,
When a llttlo child cornea to bless Us par
ents 11 Is not a citizen of tho kingdom ot
Ood until baptized. It Is brought to the
church nnd when It Is taken nwny It Is not
only a child of Its parents, but a child ot
Ood. As It grows up Its thoughts are
formed In tho church until boiuo bright
morning that child comes again to the
church in Its white garments to meet phy
Ically Its Savior and King to receive holy
communion.
"Again, tho marriage bells tell of life'
consecration. They call to the first com
munlou, to tho morning mass and on Sun
lay to participate In tho sacrifice of Cal
vary. In later years sorrows .which come to
every household visit us. Tho nngel of death
, Is at your doors. With tears and sighs for
the friend that Is dying your only consoln
Hon Is to invito the priest to come. The
priest llrst visits the nttar of tho church
and takes from thero the viaticum nnd visits
jour home, often In tho dark hours of the
night, nnd tho dying recelvo the consolation
or tho body of Him who said, '1 nm the
resurrectlou and tho life.'

MEN SHOULD STUDY THE BIBLE
Hev. I)r. Trrfs Tell onie of tho
Atl-
tniitnu'- to Hi- (inliied from
the I'nrMilt.
An Interested audience of young men
listened to Hev. Dr. Trcfz of Kountze
Memorial church nt tho Young Men's
Christian association yesterday afternoon
In the first of a series ot meetings to be
held this month to consider different topics
with regard to "Tho Book."
The topic yesterday was "Why Should
Men Study the Ulble," and the speaker
gave as the first reason that It Is tho only
guide to faith nnd righteousness. Wo may
follow down tho line of books from the
first traces of literature and nowhere else
do wc find surh a guide.
Secondly, no man can reach tho full
measure of his development unless he make
a study ot this book of nil books. A book
worth reading Is a book worth studying
and tho lives of tho greatest men with
which wo arc familiar show tho uplifting
character of the study of tho divine word
most unmistakably.
Again, If we are to be guided by the ex
ample of other men wo cannot expect to
have any great measure of wisdom unless
wo study the bible. Shakespeare's works
abound in evidences that tho master of
literature found much ot his Inspiration
In n diligent study of the scriptures. Jef
ferson ascribed his deep knowledge of law
and tho rights of men to a well worn
bible. Webster's moBt profound thoughts
came to him through a careful study ot
this hook. Milton hero found file theme
for his wohderful poems. Thero Is noth
ing In the literature of this world equal
to tho seventeenth chapter of St. John's
gospel.
To be a perfect gentleman, the highest
typo of mnphood, ono must go to the bible
for his Ideal and there study the llfo of
the perfect man, Christ Jesus.
In this day." said Dr. Trcfz. "wo read
llko we eat too much. My advlre to a
roung man Is this. If you can only do ono
thing In this life, study tho bible."
Next Sunday Hev. H. P. Herring will
discuss tho question of "How to Study the

Beauty and perfection In music and

There Is no benuty In tho great stono that

and Ruskln have offered tho world tho
results of their meditation. And who of
us would not rnther he n Huskln, even with
all his bitterness, than Napoleon? He has
offered us thoughts that are. almost divine.
What a difference thero is between human
and divine thought! Thero Is ns great a
contrast as thero Is between tho pro
ductions of Milton and tho sentiment of a
farmer who looks iiuou n field ot beautiful
corn and minus only ni too numoer 01

In tho time before Christ there wns a
lack of melody. There were no oratorios,
no lullabys. No cradle appears in tho nrt
productions that antedate the Babe ot
Bethlehem. Before that tlmo there was
no child's poet. Paganism, agnosticism
nnd skopticlsm never sing.
'Witness the marvelous works of nrt
with which Christ's followers havo filled
tho galleries of the world. Raphael's Ma

Everywhere Christ Is uplifting mankind
through His sense of tho beautiful.
'Men who can look at nature as Col-

OMAHA. Sept. 7. To tho Editor of The
Bon: A young man of raro Intellectual
gifts, n native son of Omaha, nt the age
of only 21. at tho hour of 12:50 of tho clock,
was found nt the post of duty nnd of dan
ger In the freight yards of flrand Island
as a I'nlon Pacific brakeman. Ho had Just
arrived from his 137-mile run. Tho day's
work was ended and Just ns ho wns swing
ing tho signal lamp to tho engineer thnt
al! wnB well he was struck by n moving
ttaln. The result was dreadful, a terrlblo
mutilation nnd dreadful agony. Both arms
and both legs were practically severed
from tho body. Ho was alone. IIo was In
tho darkness, his only company being his
own suffering consciousness and his Ood.
A report reached tho conductor that
a man had been xnocKed iuwn in tuo
ynrds by a trnln. lie had no Idea thnt It
was ono of his own men, much less that
I: wns his favorite, Ralph Kelly, who, In
the two short weeks of his servlco thors
had won the respect of all who knew him
by his gentlemanly bearing and energetic
fidelity to every duty. The first sound
that tho good conductor heard was a sub
dueil voleo In prayer nnd ho says ho nevor
heard such n beautiful prayer In his life.
Tho poor boy knew that ho was face to
face with tho Oreat Destroyer. His ap
peal was full of Impressive pathos. It
was nn earnest entreaty for the pardon
of his slus nnd for relief from his fearful
sufferings. Ho was completely conscious
for two hours nnd his remarkable cour
age nnd fortitude wns a subject of uni
versal comment. During thcso loug and
weary hours of ngony net a murmur or u
gronn escnped the lips of this ycung Chris
tian hero, but appeals to (lod fcr tho re
lief that could only como by death were
constant. His mention of his mother wns
frequent nnd one of his loving messages
to her was In thcso consoling words:
"Tell my mother that my llrst thought
when I wub struck was of her. and sho will
bo my last when I fall asleep."
Ho charged his friends, over and over
again, to tell his mother that he died n
Christian. "Tell her," said the dying boy,
"that I die a Christian."
After giving particular directions about
all of his personal affairs, falling Into
unconsciousness and the last long sleep,

Captain Seth Bullock, one of the well
known citizens of Deadwood, was In the city
over Sunday. He was a captain In Orlgsby's
rough riders and has been Invited by Uov
crnor Hooaevelt to accompany him on his
campaigning tour through Nebraska and
Dakota. Captain Bullock IB" proprietor of
the hotel that bears his name nt Deadwood
and Is ono of the pioneers of that rich and
sperous city, having been among tho first
to settle upon tho present site of tho city
In 1876. Ho uselsted at tho birth of the city
nnd wis the first sheriff there.
In those early days he was Intimately ac
quainted with Hon. C H. Dietrich, repub
lican candldato for governor of Nebraska,
nnd he manifests considerable pioneer spirit
nnd bluntness of expression In his refuta
tions of some of tho groundless slanders tbnt
aro being peddled over the state about Mr.
Dietrich's early career In tho Block Hills.
"I knew Charley Dietrich well during his
resldenco In tho Hills," said he, "nnd It
grieves me to say that I have heard some
campaign stories which It Is said his po
litical enemies are recounting ubout him.
You cannot make my denial of them too
emphatic. They are Ucs, bald and bare
faced. Supporter of l,m nml Order.
"I recollect Charley Dietrich ns a man
who was particularly free from the vices
nnd Impulses of the pioneer settlement
whero the reign of law has not been estab
lished. When I knew him nt Deadwood he
did not drink Intoxicating liquor at all. did
not use tobacco, never participated In tho
games of chntue so common In Deadwood lr
that day that the man who did not gamble
occasionally was nlmost a curiosity. I was
tho llrst sheriff at Deadwood nnd I remem
ber Mr. Dietrich not only ns a man of or
derly disposition himself, but whenever 1
needed aid In curbing the lawlessness of
others In my capacity ns a public official ho
wns the foremost among a few men upon
whom I could rely for assistance. He was
ono of the men In thnt pioneer community
who went In for law nnd order and who not
only desired to sco lawlessness curbed nnd
foiled, but wns possessed ol tho nervo and
capacity to aid In thnt direction.
"I recall one Incident in particular. It
was In August, 1S7. Tho popular saloou of
tho place wns called the Bella Union and
was run by Billy Nuttall. No established
government was there at that time, ns It
was located within nn Indian reservation.
Ono night there was a killing at the Bella
I'nlon, the author of which was the bar
tender. There had been n road agent stay
ing In Deadwood known as "Laughing Sam,"
who, It appeared, had threatened to kill tho
bartender of tho Bella I'nlon. On the even
ing In question a rounder named Meyer
Baum who wub a warm friend of tho bar
tender came Into the saloon wearing a pe
culiar coat usually worn by I.nughlng Sam,
nnd the bartender, mistaking his friend for
the road agent, had opened tiro and killed
him.
"I had a cabin close to that of'Dletrlch,
with whom I was acquainted. I had been
sheriff nt Helena, Mont., and chairman
of the vigilance committee there befqro
coming to Deadwood, and when I heard of
tho killing I said to Dietrich that thero
was too much killing going nn nnd pro
posed to go down nnd take the bartender
Into custody nml organize a government
with him. Ho readily assented, doing to
tho Bella Union we passed through It and
found tho bartender concealed In a log
cabin back of it.
"In n llttlo tlmo there began to bo talk
of lynching him. A party wns organized
nt Qayvllle for that purpose and camo
down to Deadwood. I romembor thnt
Dietrich stood guard upon the prisoner
all night nnd wo stood off tho lynching
party. Next day n court was organized,
tho bartender was tried and acquitted
H. Klsele, the manufacturing Jeweler, is
ono of the best known Ocrmnu-AmorlcanB
In Omaha. Being a member of many of
the Ocrman societies nud nt all times
taking a lively Interest In political ques
tlous, he Is In position to speak know
ingly of the sentiment among his country
men lu this vicinity. IIo buj-b :
"The German people, as you may havo
noticed, arc not the kind to bo led around
by tho noso In politics or anything else.
When the pnrty to which they havo given
their support ceases to stand for tho prin
ciples In which they havo faith thoy get
out of It. A great majority of tho German -American
citizens of Nebraska became at
tached to the democratic party nt tho
time a republican leglslaturo threatened
their personal liberty by submitting the
prohibition schemo to a voto ot the people.
Many of these peoplo returned to tho re
publican forces four yenrs ngo when the
democratic national convention threatened
the Btnblllty of tho currency of the coun
try nnd many moro will change from
Bryan to McKlnley this yoar for tho same
reason.
"Tho Oorinan peoplo do not act on Im
pulse; they nro not to bo moved by the
er.sy eloquence of a delusive demagogue.
They havo a habit of studying questions
before deciding them nnd for that reason
they nro very unlikely to recognize nny
Imperialism In tho issues of this cam
paign. If wo had n Herman in tho presi
dential chair do you suppose ho would
Jump at a conclusion of tho Phllippluo
question, us Mr. Bryan docs, or would he
tnke tho prudent and safe course that Is
belug pursued by Mr. McKlnloy? I am In
clined to think that President McKlnley
Is showing traits characteristic of the
Herman In his treatment nf tho Philippine
question.
Militarism Fool .o Ono.
"I have rend that Oerman-Ainerlca'ns aro
favorabla to tho democratic ticket this year
because they are afraid of tho oitahllshmeiu
of a big standing army In this country. This
claim Is a llbl on tho character ns well ns
on iho Intelligence of our Ocrman people.
In tho first plnce no party will ever under
take to establish nny larger nrmy under this
government than Is necesinry to protect Its
luterests nt homo nud abroad, and If any
party proposes to maintain an army In
adequate for such duty It makes a very
serious mistake. The military organization
Is more likely lo bo kept within proper
bounds by tho conservatism of n McKlnley
than by tho radicalism of n Bryan. It Is
nonsense for the democratic orators to pro
claim that Hermans, as a class, aro afraid
of military service. The roster of tho
United States army will show the falsity of
such n claim, for It contains the names of
legions of Hermans."
In nearly all presidential elections Mr.
Klsclo has voted the democratic tirkot. but
this year he Is nn enthusiastic supporter of
McKlnley and Dietrich.
Claui Conrad, a prominent Hcrman-Amtr-tcan
citizen of Omaha, says
"The ciy of militarism raised by the fusion

fect whatever on the Herman vote. It must

Captain Bullock Is n typical pioneer In
appearance nnd deportment. His nppcar
anco would hardly suggest tint twenty
five years ngo he was old enough to take
so prominent n part in tho affairs of n

not bo forgotten that the Hermans nre n
thoughtful peoplo and they cannot bo

What does militarism mean? Does it mean
that tho United States, in times of pence,
sbull maintain an army ns large, in propor
tion to population, ns that of (iermnny? If
so, the Hernnn-Amerlcans are opposed to It.
But every UilnklnKman knows that no such
thing Is contemplated by any party In this
country. It militarism means that this gov
ernment shall maintain nn nrmy of sulll
clent strength at all times to protect Its In
terests throughout the world a sufficient
military forco to make tho United Stales ono
of the greatest powers of the world then I
stand with all of my Herman friends In
favor of it.
"I am nf tho opinion that the United
Stntes needs and ought to hnvo .10,000 more
soldiers In servlco nt tho preserlt time. If
Mr. Bryan wants to know how tho Hermans
feel in this matter a llttlo Inquiry will show
him
that thoy are disposed to fuvor as
largo an nrmy as Is necessnry to enforce tho
authority ot tho government and they arc,
ready to furnish moro than their share of
tho fighters. What tho Hermans oppose Is
the malntenince of a largo standing nrmy
In times of pence when there is nothing for
tho largest part of It to do nnd that Is
something thut all citizens of tho United
Stntes. regardless of nativity and politics,
nro opposed to."
Whnt un IMItor Sli),
Paul Hetzschmann. editor of tho Ne
braska Trlbuno, a Herman nowspnpor of
wide circulation und Influence, makes this
slgnlllcnnt statement:
"In 18!l0 the Nebraska Trlbuno supported
Bryan and tho Chicago platform and nat
urally Its subscribers were people who
agreed with Its editorial sentiments at that
time. Early In this campaign tho Tribune
enmo out in support of the republican na
tional and state tickets, and the fact that
It has not lost but greatly gained In circu
lation slnco Its chnngo of political posi
tion may bo token as an indication of tho
present political sentiment among tho
Hermans of this state. I have been In close
touch with prominent Herman-American
citizens throughout Nobrasltn and know
that many of them who supported thn
democratic tlckot four years ago nro today
working nmong their friends for tho re
election of President McKlnley. I think
Iho principal reason for this chnngo Is Iho
prosperity that wo are all enjoying. But
It must not bo overlooked that the careful
and conservative policy of the present ad
ministration nppenls strongly to u people
who are noted for their i onservntlsm. I
do not think anything Mr. Bryan can say

WILD WEST RESTS IN PEACE

SIX HUNDRED MEN GO TO HOUSEKEEPING

Tholr nllo I, nnd.
A caravan drawn from the nations ot the
earth, with Indians und cowboys, products
of the wild west, In the lend, pitched their
tents, Sunday morning at Twentieth nnd
Paul streets. It was the coming of Buffalo
Bill to his homo stnto and his village played
the host to hundreds of guests during the
day. Tho auditorium tent, the stock tents,
living and kitchen tents were speedily
pitched nnd nil Is in readiness for the two
performances today.
It was Sunday und n day of rest, so when
their housekeeping had been attended to the
sons of each trlbo or nation went about the
pleasures or pursuits which wero bred In
their bones. The sixty Indians from tho
Nebraska reservation nt Pine ltldge were
the center of the visitors' eyes. Old Iron
Tall, a chief ot note In his nation, was the
master of ceremonies nnd superintended n
little vaudeville turn which was wholly un
affected and spontaneous. The Indians exe
cuted n tribal song In chorus which brought
generous npplause.
From the tent of the British foldlers
there came the sound of fresh, clear lolcos
more Intelligible to civilized ears. It was a
quartet of "abrent-mlndcd beggars" sluging
nn old Fngllsh ballad with an enrnestness
thnt betokened not so much absence of mind
after nil. Thcso men nre mostly veterans
who have served with tho Scots Orcys nnd
other celebrated regiments In India. Africa
and n dozen other places. They are n finely
built, soldierly lot whose chief fault Is mod
esty. The Stirring tales they might relate
they laugh away as little things not worth
tho telling. They have sirved seven years
with the colors and live years with the re
serve. IIoiikIi Hitlers llrnvr Addition.
Tho drawing card for the younger genera
tion was the group of fourteen rough riders
lolling about their tent In nil sorts of
negligee, but for the most part nn Inoffen
sive looking 'ot. With tho squad Is "Me
Olnty," known to fame through the writings
of Colonel Hoosevelt. ".McOlnty" belongs
nt Oklahoma City, where tho show will
spend Sundny within a few weeks. Already
the scores of rough riders who live in that
section nro preparing a royal welcome nnd
cowboys will rldo for miles to see their
mates.
The military contingent was completed
with' n remnant of tho Tenth United States
cavalry nnd n detachment of tho Fifth ar
tillery. Tho Tenth nro tho gallant colored
warriors who won glory In tho Cuban cam
paign. In addition there Is the usual retinue
of Filipinos, Cubans. Mexicans and Arabs,
with a half-dozen Ocrman cavalrymen. Tho
forplgn contingent comes direct from Its
native heath, the management making a
special point of showing real nnd actual
representatives of each race.
With Buffalo Bill travels a small army,
only a part nf which is ever visible lo the
public. There nro (500 men In his company
and 100 cf thcso tako part In the actual per
formonee. The others are In charge of tho
stock or arc kept busy In preparing three
meals dally for many hungry mouths or nre
entrusted with the rearing nnd demolition
of tho village of a night.
Tho morning pnrado today will start at
fl.JlO, taking a course along Twentieth street
to Cuming, to Sixteenth, to Douglas, to
i Tenth, to Fnrjam, to Sixteenth, to Cuming
land tho grounds. Seth Bullock, tbo first
sheriff of Deadwood, S. D., Is a guost of
Colonel Cody nnd will occupy a carriage in
tho parade.
Millions wilt tit spent tr. politics this
year. We can't keep the campaign going
without money any mora than wo can keep
tho body vigorous without food. Dyspep
tics used to starve themselves. Now Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure digests what you eat and
allows you to cat all the good food you
want. It radically eurt-s stomach trouble4
"I nm no polltlclnn," says Mr. Drelbus,
"and you can't Induce mo to talk politics.
I will say, however, that Bryan will be
beaten worso this year than ho was In
1S!0. We can see prosperity all around us
und that does not indicate that a chsuge
Is at nil desirable. I think the questlcna
of Imperialism and militarism, It thero are
uny such questions, will be overlooked In
tho general scramble this year to voto for
a continuation of present conditions."

GRAND ISLAND, Neb., Sept. 0. (Spo
clal.) Charles Happold, n prominent Her
man farmer of Doniphan township, wns In
tho city yesterday. Ho was n delegate to
tho republican county convention. Four
years ngo ho was a supporter of Bryan's
theories and a believer In Bryan s prophe
clcs. In conversation with Tho Bco corre
spondent Mr. Happold said:
"Yes, It Is truo, four years ago I was a
( BUpportL,r of tll0 democratic ticket. 1 was
an ardent advocate of Bryan. I honestly
believed In tho theories ho advanced then
and I was disappointed when 1 learned he
wns defeated. However, obout u year later
1 becamo convinced that the country was
not, after all, going to the bad, notwlth
stnndlng Mr. Bryan's predictions to that cf
feet. Wo began to receive hotter prices
"Then tho wnr camo on. I um Herman

"As to 'militarism' I am nB stated
Herman. I served threo years In tho Her

with 03,000 soldiers, or oven 100.000, Is as

ridiculous Idea that 75,000,000 peoplo should

Chlrf SIbumI Oflloor Monro (.ol tho
llrt of Witty John Allen.
Congressman John Allen of Mississippi Is
becoming famous as a story-teller. He Is
llkewiso very quick nt repartee and sel
dom gets the worst of n verbal encounter.
I saw Allen silenced but once," sold a
gentleman who knows him well, to a Chi
cago Chronicle man, tho other day. "and
then I think It was almost as much the
temmlty as tho wit of his antagonist which
did tho business for him. Allen has got
Into tho habit of saying his say and re
ceiving no 'back talk,' so that It startles
him somewhat to get n return flro from an
unexpected quartor.
It was at n public dinner at the Mar-
quettn club In Chicago, whore Allen, hap
pening to come In lato enough to lose
his place on the program of speech-making,
had it splendid chanco to make targets of
all his predecessors when he was finally
called upon. Among the guests who had
not yet spoken wns W illis Mooro, chlof of
the weather bureau In Washington. Moore
Is a demure look I n ; man, with no pre
tensions ns n speoi li-mnker. Allen, look
ing nbout tho table, had spotted him and
seized, tho occasion to pour somo hot
shot Into Ills weather predictions, among
other things accusing Mooro's bureau of
making tho weather as well as prophesy
ing nbout It. After ho had finished, the
toastmaster, to tho surprlso of everybody,
called upon Moore. It wns not a pleasant
situation for n man only slightly nccus-
tomed to public speaking to be summoned
Immediately after u veteran like Allen, but
Mooro faced tho matter bravely and spoke
somewhat In this Wise-

speech, particularly the part In which ho
referred to the work of tho weather bureau.
hocuiiHo be was kind enough to admit that
It Is we who did that work. Not all of you
may understand my surprlso at such nu ad
mission, because you hnvo not teen Mr
Allen at homo, or learned his reputation
among his neighbors who know him best.
I remember a few years ngo being In Mis
sissippi while Mr. Allen was seeking a re
election. He had for nn opponent an Irish
gentleman with a delicious brogue, but. I
hardly need add, no mntch for tho marvelous
logic and versatility of our f;,end. Thn
people were nil wondering what sort of a
figure this candidate would cut in a Joint
debate on the hustings with Mr. Allen. But
he was not to be drawn Into nny Joint debate
He knew better. He let Mr. Alien appear before-
nn nudlenco on n certain day and mako
nn nppenl for voles, based, ns all oratory Is,
upon the modest disclaimer of any personal
merit.'
"At this point Mr. Moore paused for a
moment, nnd a rlpplo of merriment passed
around tho tuhlo In recognition of tho
rrfcrenco to Allen's conspicuous uso ot tho
first personal pronoun In ull his speeches.
Ho then went ot.:
" 'The net day the lilsh gentleman would
tnke the stump and say: ".Mn frlnds, how
mnny of yez heard the Hon. John Allen
make his spncho ylsterday?" A multitude
of hands went up. "Now, me frlnds, tho
good book tells us thnt lu six dnys tho Lord
mndo heaven nnd earth nnd nil that In them
Is. How many of yez belaves thnt state-
ment?" t'p went a multitude of hands again.
Hiven bo praised'" ejaculated tho can
didate, fervently. "Ol'm glad to find so
many of yez still belavln' that tho Lord did
somo of these worrucks, when John Allen
has claimed that he did thlui all'"'
"As Mr. Moore sat down all oyes turned
toward Allen, lie seemed to be chewing on
a thought, but he never uttered it. IIo
simply bhook his head nnd held his pence "
