lllshop McCabe Is firmly convinced that
prayer will bring rain. And so Is Mrs. Mc-
C'abe, who did not hcsltato a moment In
declaring her faith In prayer us a means of
opening the fountains of the heavens.
"I have known of many Instances where
prayer did bring rain," eald tho bishop. "I
know of ono Instance whero a man at a
campmectlng tell upon his knees and
prayed for rain. Thero had been a I
drouth prevailing and at tho instant when
his prayer wu3 uttered the skies were
brazen, but within a very short time after
the prayer it began clouding un and during
that same evening a plentiful shower camo
nud tho drouth was broken. That was
back In Ohio.
"I do believe that prayer will bring rain.
I think that you can pray In faith for rain.
If I could look through the church history
a little I could find two or throe columns
with instnnccs In which peoplo prayed for
rain and had their prayers nnswercd. I
do not recall thorn now, but they are mat-
tors of history. People., must humblo
mcmseivcs, confess their sins and ask for-
givenesi una their prayers will be an-
swereti. itain Is a blowing and we aro told
that what wo should havo we must pray for.
Thcro Is no reason vhy wo should not pray
tor rain tno samo as any other blessing.
ElIJa prayed for rnln and why should
hot we?
'I expect to bo In Columbus on Friday
nmi snail not fall to join in any prayer
servico that may bo held thre."
Mr McCnbo was oven moro prompt In
declaring her, belief in tho efficacy of
prnycr to bring molsturo from tho clouds.
"Certainly," involuntarily nnswercd she
when tho question wns propounded to her
husband s to his belief In tho efTcncy of
pruyer to bring rain. "I remember once
hack in Ohio, when thoro had been a
drouth ror wcoks, and when old Father
Young prnyed, It rained before I got home.
Wo all had n great deal of faith In Father
Young's prayerB. When ho uttered that
prayer wc nil ten mat it woum rain, ne
was so earncBt and had such faith in hts
appeal himself." ,

Morton Smith, Evangelist-Governor
Savage s proclamation selling aside t rniny
an a day or special prayers tor rain is
I cold-blooded. It has a bad tono. Iletween
tho lines can be read the words, "I don't
think It will do any good, but go ahead
and pray. Jt won't do any barm." When
the Ilaptist young people asked Governor
Savaga tc appoint a day of prayer some
tlrao ago ho scouted nt the Idea and said
that the prayers In Missouri would reach
over Into Nebraska. In spite of tho fact
that Governor Savage does not seem to
have asked for prayers In the right spirit
think it Is well for Ncbraskans to con-
form with his proclamation and pray for
rain. It is probablo that a daylight service

In regard to his courso In tho Santiago

he could not do so without n breach of

In a position to nnnnunco tho fact that the
application has been made.
In n small village llko Oreat Neck, L. I.,
where Admiral Schley Is staying with his
son-in-law, H. .M. S. Wortley. his presenco
Is a matter of pride to all tho townspeople
and naturally llttlo Mint he does passes
unnoticed. The admiral drove from Kim
Point, where tho Wortloy cottage Is situ
ated, to the Great Neck postofnee yester
day (Tuesday) afternoon nnd a few minutes
before 3 o'clock mailed a letter which was
addressed to John D. Long, secretary of the
navy, at Washington, Though the admiral
would not talk of this letter, tho nature
of lt3 contents wns known to others In
Oreat Neck and thero Is no doubt that
Secretary Long, when ho opens It today
(Wednesday), will And In It a request for
formal nnd official inquiry.
When Admiral Schley was pressed to
make some stntemcnt of his position he
wrote the following sentences:
"I really think that, as this matter Is
liable to tako tho form of a judicial Investi
gation, I ought not to be subjected to Inter
view. I think that nctlon Is preferable
to words nnd I havo decided to net. More

Continue nt the

The ferryboat Castalta will arrive here
next Thursday and work will be Imme
diately commenced by the pontoon brldgo
peoplo In connection with their bridge prop
osition. If tho plans of the company materialize,
and It now begins to look ns If they would,
the company will soon havo Its bridge in
operation, with the South Omaha landing
at the foot ot Missouri avenue.
Tho grading of Missouri avenue from
Thirteenth street to tho river Is being
pushed along rapidly and In another
week's time, It some unavoidable delay does
not come upon tho work, the grading will
bo fully finished. The fences have nlready
been erected by Street Commissioner Clarko
and Engineer Heal has placed in tho hands
ot tho contractor full plans for tho work,
with the established grade, etc.
Just what will be done with tho ferryboat
has not as yet been determined. Of courso
It will be used In connection with the
erection of the pontoon bridge, but whether
the company will (111 nny contracts by uti
lizing the ferry has not ns yet been given
out It is thought that It will.
The general manager of the pontoon
brldgo will be Captain It. A. Talbott, who
Is coming down tho river with the ferry
boat. Ho is an old experienced boatman
and the men who are furnishing the cap
ital for this enterprise think they
havo made a wise choice when they decided
upon him ns their manager.
The officers of tho corporation as orig
inally formed, with ono or two posslblo
exceptions, will bo continued by the com
pnny and the Incorporators nil seem to
think that the bridge will mean a great
deal for South Omaha.
It seems to bo a matter of general be
lief that when thu ferry gets to going and
when the pontoon bridge is completed a
certain opening up of further Improvements
Is assured. Many believe that It will mean
tho Immediate opening ot N street or some
other prluclpnl thoroughfare, while the
consensus of opinion Is thnt a Burlington
station, so much talked of, and other Im
provumcnts on tho east side will surely
follow.
Tho Commercial club will soon bo In
action ngaln and upon Its first meeting
very likely some things pertaining to these
matters will bo taken up In earnest. Sec
retary Chrlstto says that ono ot tho prin
cipal committees regarding cast-side Im
provements will have nn interesting re
port on tho occasion ot the first moctlng.
"I believe," said a member of tho Com
mercial club Inst night, "that upon our
first meeting something more than w.lnd
will develop. The certainty of this non
toon bridge enterprise is suro to enliven
things on the enst sldo and that is where
tho city Is now mostly Interested. Ot
courso wo do not expect all the streets
opened nnd a magnificent new railway sta
tion all at once, but they will undoubtedly
come ln due time, slnco the new pontoon

THE TOMBOY.
A Kind of Girl Who Becamo
Extinct in tho Last Century.
It's ft far cry from the Mmnlcr-workiiip
maiden of n hundred years ago to the
athletic girl 01 to-uay. the girl of a
hundred years n(o did not dare to he
original In thought or action, or it sha
did was nt once stamped ns eccentric nnd
stronv-mlndwl. Her mind wns formed
on sale principles. She was trained to
household duties, rum to accept tuc nar
row limits in which she was to move m
the natural, Intellectual nnd physical
bounds of a woman's capacity. If she
revolted from cup and ball c.trlv in the
century, or later from the mild delight
of croquet anil wanted to run nnd romp,
sue was in variably set uown as "n regumr
tomlwy." Thnt wns a very familinr term
only a few years ngo. Now one hardly
hears it. Girls nre encouraged to row
nnd ride, to run nnd romp, in the inter
est of their own physical well being, and
for the L'cneral advantage of the mothers
of the future.
TIIK ONI! TIUNO NBK.nFUL.
Such irirls make the healthiest nnd
happiest of women, with one provision
they must begin womanhood nripjht.
When the womanly function is hrst
established it should be under perfectly
healthy conditions, otherwise soon or
late diseases of the womanly organism
will result, and this opens the door to
boundless suffering.
The first lesson which every girl should
learn when she comes to womanhood is
that her general health is inseparable
from the local womanly health ; that
womanly disorders ami derangements
known now only to herself will in time
publish themselves to all her sex, in the
hollow cheek, dull eye and p.dn-crca.sed
brow. To the young' woman irregularity
is only n form of physical discomfort.
To the experienced it is nn indication of
functional derangement which calls for
prompt cure. It is neglect or delay nt
such times which often leads to the
establishment of chronic diseases.
woman's niT l'mr.ND.
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is a
medicine prepared especially for woman's
use, and Is designed to cure diseases pecu
liar to women. It is particularly adapted
to the use of young women because of its
great tonic and invigorating properties,
and also because it contains no harmful
ingredients, being entirely free from
alcohol nnd from opium, cocaine and all
other narcotics. It is n medicine that
cannot disagree with the most delicate
constitution. Hundreds of thousands of
women whose cures represent every cur
able form of womnnly disease, give their
testimony to the perfect re-cstahlishiuent
of the local and jgenernl health by the
use of "Favorite Prescription."
" I wish to tell you the benefit we have
received from using your remedies,"
writes Mrs. Dan Hall, of Iirodhend, Green
Co., Wis. "Two years ago my daughter's
health began to fall. Everything that
could be thought of was done to help

though nothing could teach the trouble.
We tried different patent medicines, but
no use. When she began to compiain
she was quite stout ; w eighed 170, the
picture of good health, until about the
nge of fourteen, then in six months she
was so mn down her weight wns but 1 JO.
She kept failing and I gave up, thinking
there was no use, she must die, Friend
all said, ' You will lose your daughter.'
I must say, doctor, that only for your
'Favorite Prescription ' my daughter
would have been in her grave to-day.
When she had taken one-half bottle the)
natural function was established, nnd
we bought another one, making only two
bottles In all, and she completely re
covered. Since then she Is as well aa
can be."

Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription not

At such times Doctor

suffered for three years or more nt
monthly periods. It seemed ns though
I would tlic with pains in my back and
stomach. 1 could not rise to my feet nt
all without fainting; hnd given up nil
hope of ever eing cured, when one of
my friends insisted upon my trying Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription. with
but little faith I tried it, and before I
hnd tnken half n bottle I felt better, had
better nppctitc and slept better. Now I
have taken two bottles of ' Favorite Pre

Discovery,' nnd ant hnppy to say I am
entirely cured, nnd all done in two
mouths' inK when nil other medicines
had failed to do any good at all."
