LINCOLN, March U. (Sptl )-neselu-tlons
on the death of Jtjirescntatlve Drown
of Otoe county formed a special order it
business tig the house of representative
at the beginning of the atternoon sessten.
Srtecbes In eulocj' of the late represetila
tire were made by Messrs. Etan, Cain.
Hunks, Sprceher and Ixwrols. The prin
cipal address was br Cain, and as H as
bis first cHort In spece hmalnR before the
house It attracted more than usual atten
tion. He spohe forcibly and earnestly and
bis remarks showed deep appreciation of
tbf loss occasioned by the death of the
member. Mr. Cain ald
Mr. Fpenkrr: At the lequcM tt the rep
resentative Ire-m Otoe, a distinction tl
whJrh I am proud and an lienor for which
1 am grateful, 1 J i-irc at this time to sa
a few words of a charHcter who. In a qutt
and unassuming way. ha? made a deep and
lasting Impression on me.
I had never met the late David Brown
until the owning of this session of the leg
Islature. when he appeared here to repre
tent the people who had retxwd their con
fldenre In him some years Hgo. and who
last fall, after an Interval of thirty year,
again railed him from private life to rete
resent them In this branch of the leelsla
turc . .....
I have served with him on the Judiciary
committee, one of the Important committee
of this house, and-early learned to respect
and Mdmlre htm. His sense of Justice, his
opposition to that which he believed to be
wrong, his fearlessness In defending that
which he believed to bo right, were char
acteristics of tho mart that early in fur
acquaintance Impressed me.
There are men they may be In public
Hff.wh.om It fa necear to euloglre. but
David Hrown was not one of them. HU
dally life, his amiable character, his ster
ling Integrity, his many acts and deeds of
kindness and pure beneficence, give tone
and character and shed a halo of glory
around a pure ahd consecrated life, to
which no words' of tongue or pen can add
one single gleam to heighten Its lut.ler.
Hut he has gone from among us; his brl.snt
smile. 'his hearty laughter, his cordial greet
ing will be ours no more this side the snow,
capped hills, wrapped In purple hale nnd
o'erhunir with noarh clouds that glow with
amber and flush with crimson over leyond
where the earth and the heavens seem to
meet.
firm p nnd I'urr.
His was a fearless heart and his a brave
soul. He never forgot n friend nor did he
ever hold malice toward an enemy, in the
short time I have been Intimately ac
quainted with him I have never known a
purer heart, a more generous nature or a
firmer friend.
Many Instances could be cited of his pure
and disinterested friendship, his devotion
to fixed principle and his uterllng worth
as a man, buoyant In spirit under the most
adverse, circumstances, brave In meeting re
sponstbllltles nnd courageous in maintain
ing his self-respect, his honor and his in
tegrity, his life furnishes n beautiful ex
ample for the youth of our commonwealth
to emulate. In all his relations to life he
was the personification of manly Integrity,
felf-resptct and equal and exact Justice to
all. As a man among men he was the peer
of any and the Inferior of none At all
times and under all circumstances first with
suggestion, counsel and. material assistance,
aiding all movements looking to the better
ing of Ms home town, his county, his state
nnd his nation. A loving and devoted hus
band, a kind and indulgent father, an
obliging and generous neighbor, a tlrm and
steadfast friend, with a boundless charity
for the faults and frailties. of the erring
and vlcJoua, no Inducement. could be offered
tnnt would tempt him to swerve from his
Jjst appreciation of right and wrong, nor
for one moment Induce him to dally with
questionable methods to obtain however
or-sirable ends.
His most pronounced characteristics were
sound discretion, clear discernment, good
common nonse, treat honesty of purpose
and Odnmltable energy. He Inspired alt
who knew him with confidence In his hon
esty, Integrity and honor and compelled
the concession that he was both lust and
generous. Guided by his high seni-e of
justice, his reusonlng faculties rarely ever
failed him In the attainment of truth,
which was with him the controlling princi
ple In -both public and private life.
Ills' llnce Is Done.
Hut our friend, our neighbor, our fellow
legislator Is een no more among men.
His work Is done. HU labors are ended;
his task Is finished, hi" chair "is vacant.
He has no more part or lot In the dellbera
tlons of this body and his ears are deaf to
the sound of the speaker's gavel.
No mere for nlm the honors of the slate;
no more for him the endearments of fam
ily . no more for him the load of care or
the sigh of sorrow; no more for him the
I 11 ty of spring, the splendor of summer,
the glory of autumn or the majesty of win
ter. Flowers will bloom upon his tHTWe.
storms will beat upon It, morning will
greet it witn ner earnest light, mem win-co'-er
It with her -stara, but all by him will
be heeded not while he sleeps that last long
sleep that knows no uwnkenlng. and time
will commingle his dust with'Mothtr Kurth
from which he sprung; but his oul the
Immortal part ban taken its flight to the
Celestial Home above, "to that houre not
made with hands, eternal In the heavens."
As It has ever been our pleasure while he
lived to bear testimony to hln many virtues,
his exalted character his unswerving fldel
lty to friends and principles and the faith
ful performance of the many trusts con
fided to his CJire, so now that ho has tven
called to everlastlngness In that higher and
better life. It is mill our pleaxure to ipeak
In prnlse of his virtues and In honor of his
memory. So well did I.e discharge the vari
ous duties assigned hlra, so exemplary was
his conduct, that those4who knew him best
always delighted to honor him. and now
that he Is gone and we will .neel him on
earth no more, we. his colleagues In the
house of representatives of the Twenty
seventh session of the Nebraska legislature,
enshrine his memory In our hearts and ren
der this tribute as a memorial of our affec
tion and esteem.
What David Brown was here In the leg
islature he was elsewhere a brave, true,
good, guileless, kindly, generous man who
brought cheerfulness to his dally work;
whose greeting was always a smile and
who was e-.er active, quick and alert, and
who had everlasting convictions thai "God
looks to pure hands, not full ones."

VALLEY, Neb., March 14. (Special Tele
gram.) The large barn and granaries of
Wtttmoro Bros, at this place were burned
to the ground early this morning. Ten
head of horses confined In the basement of
the barn, a large amount of grain and
numerous wagon and buggies were con
sumed, involving a loss of tlO.000, partly
cohered by Insurance.
The fire started about 6.30 -o'clock from
the explosion of s lantern In the hands of
Arthur Dunham, an employe of the firm. He
was In the hay loft at the time and can
ascribe no reason for the explosion of the
lantern, for It came without any warning.
Dunham escaped without injury. From the
hay, which burned rapidly, the fire quickly
spread to the entire barn.
Valley has no fire department, and any
attempt to save the barn was seen to be
futile. A general alarm was sounded and.
the whole tows turned out. The men or
ganized In brigades and began to clear the
structure of whatever could be reached.
Twenty-five horses were In the barn at the
time of the fire. Those on the first floor,
numbering fifteen, were led out before the
fire reached them, but the ten In the base
ment died In the flames.
The granaries adjoining the barn were
well filled and the fire rapidly spread to
them. Nearly all of the farm Implements,
buggies and wagons and the grain were con
sumed, or so badly damaged that they are
a total lots. ,
Twenty feet from the burning barn stood
the residence of Whttmorc brothers. It was
directly In the path of the wind, which wa
blowing from the barn at a high rate. The
chief attention of the bucket brigade was
directed toward saving the house. Blank
ets were sprtad on the ro'of, soaked with
water and covered with salt. Bilcket after
bucket of water was passed up the ladders
to the top of the house, which was saved
with only a scorchlngof the paint. It was
remarkable work when the velocity of the
wind blowing directly from the barn Is con
sidered. Members of the firm estimated that their
total loss would range from 17,000 to (10,000
and they said that this was partly covered
by Insurance. The firm of Whltmore Bros,
has been doiag a large business In live
sto:k. It is gafd that they will rebuild.

HARRISBCRG. Pa., March 14.-Charles
W. Ryan, cashier ot the Halifax National
bank, was shot to death by Henry Rowt
and Weston Kelpcr of Lykcns at noon to
day in an attempt at a 'daring bank rob
bery. The robbers were raptured by a
party of citizens soon after the crime and
were brought to the Harrlsburg Jail, to
gether with F. B. Straley of Lykcns, who
is suspected of being an accomplice,
Rowe a.nd Kelper drove to Halifax from
Elizabeth this morning and, hitching their
team on the outskirts ot the town, boldly
entered the bank with revolvers presented
and demanded that the attaches ot the
bank throw up their hands and turn over
the money. One of them held in check
Abraham Fostenbaugb, the president; Isaac
Lyter, the teller, and ex-Repreentattv.
Swartz ot Dunrannon, who was in the bank
on private business. The other covered
Cashier Ryan and under the menace of the
revolvers the cashier collected the cash
In the drawers to the amount of $2,000 and
placed it in a satchel the robbers had
brought with thrm. Rowe, with the cash-stuffed-
satchel In his band, backed out
toward the door and Kelper also moved
toward the entrance of the bank.
Just when it seemed that the robbers
would succeed in getting away Cashier
Ryan leaped forward In an attempt to
knock, up the revolver of the man with the
money. In the scuffle several shots were
fired and Ryan fell to the floor, shot through
the groin by a bullet from the pistol ot
Rowe. Mr. Fostenbaugb grabbed Rowe and
after a short scuffle threw him to the floor.
Kelpcr ran out the door. The noise of
the shots attracted J. F. Leyter, who has
a store near the bank building. He ran
out with his shotgun and pursued Kelper
for one block and shot him In the back ot
the bead, when the robber surrendered.
The wounded cashier was taken to his
home after the capture of the. desperadoes,
where he died tonight.

BAD BLOOD,
BAD COMPLEXION.
The skin is the seat of an almost end
less variety of diseases. Ther are known
by various names, but are alf due to the
same cause, acid and other poisons in
the blood that irritate and interfere with
the proper action of the skin.
To have a smooth, soft skin, free from
all eruptions,, the blood rnust be kept pure
and healthy. The many preparations of
arsenic and potash and the large number
of face powders and lotions generally
used in this class of diseases cover up
for a short time, but cannot remove per
manently the ugly blotches and the red,
disfiguring pimples.
