Is the motto of the com mittee appointed at Topeka Thursday by the state convention of the Christian church to arrange for an excursion of delegatea from the church of that state to the national oonventton at Omaha. This committee was appointed after addresses made by Judge W. W. Slabaugh and C. 8. Paine, who went to Topeka to nil the place assigned to W. T. Hilton, who la now In Colorado.

Between us I had to do some ground and lofty tumbling to get into position arter the result of the Illinois state convention com ing out for Representative Hopkins for United States senator and, having cut the ground from under me so lar as Washing ton was concerned, there was nothing left to do but to get back into a business with which I waa perfectly familiar. The success of the Central Loan and Trust Company of Illinois has been really remarkable. Within ten days of the an nouncement of its organization $5,000,000 of stock was subscribed for and I guess that'a the way I got the credit In the east of being associated with a trust company that bsd $4,000,000 on deposit within six days of Its formation. "As to politics In Illinois, while some what chaotic Just at present, I have no doubt but that conditlona will materially brighten aa election day comes around. If we elect a republican legislature Repre sentative Hopkins, who has been endorsed by the atate convention, will be elected United Btates senator to succeed w. e. Mason, In my judgment. Mason Is de feated now, although he la crying 'Wolf, wolf,' when we of the rank and file of the party have not been able to decry that ani may anywhere in eight." Mr. Dawes incidentally said that with the death of President McKlnley his Interest in Washington bad largely cfased. He confessed, however, that he wouH like to go back to meet aome of the old friends formed during bla connection with one of the most Important branches of the Treasury de partment, but, as the old negro said, "I'se little hopes." Mr. Dawea arrived in Omaha yesterday morning from Chicago on bis way to Lin coln, where he will spend a few days. Christian Cltlaenahlp t alon.

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Project for Tannery ii Givei Up by the Oommsrcial Club, CITY DOES NOT TAKE KINDLY TO BONUS Municipal Balldlna; Filled with "moke, bat I.lttle Fire Improvement at Cndahy Plant Maa-lc City Coaalp. The tannery project has gone up In the air, at least as far as the South Omaha Commercial club Is concerned. President Freltag stated to a Bee reporter yesterday afternoon that the members of the club and the business men In general did not take kindly to the project. "There was a request by Mr. Elliott of Atlanta, Oa., for the citizens of Bouth Omaha to take a cer tain amount of stock In the proposed tan nery. Mr. Elliott alleged that he and his partner, Mr. Thaw, had control of a new process for the tanning cf hides without the use of bark. What these two promoters wanted was to sell to South Omaha citizens $25,000 In stock, preferred, and reserve the balance of stock for themselves in order to secure the controlling Interest. There Is a balance of common stock to be issued and sold, but the chancea are that It will not be sold here." By those who have looked into the mat ter it is asserted that If the process for tanning waa of any great worth there would be no need of issuing stock or ask ing a bonus of $25,000, aa has been de manded. As far as the Commercial club is concerned the project will be dropped. Mayor Koataky'a Proclamation.

Much Smoke, Little Fire. The jailer at police headquarters at tempted last night to start a tire in the stove in the rear of the city jail In order to increase the temperature, lio far no steam has been turned on and city officials have been wearing wraps of all kinds and descriptions. By some hook or crook the stove would not work, as the chimney was out of order and so the police court, the jail and the city offices were filled with smoke. Finally Chief Brlggs decided that the best thing to do was to put out the fire snd report the condition of the chimney to the sgents of the building. Iaqueat Contlnaed. Coroner Brailcy held an Inquest yesterday afternoon over the remains of W. P. Sough- ton, who was killed by a train in the north yards a few days ago.

NEBRASKA NOT IN MANEUVERS Ho Arrngsmsnta at Fart Rilsy for Militia msa from This Stats. a ssssamsmasaaa GENERAL COLBY IGNORES GENERAL BATES Commander of Department of tha Mlssonrl Sends' Commnnlentlon to Head' of National Gaard, bat Gets Na Response. ft has leaked out at army headquarters that In all probability the Nebraska Na tional Ouard will not be represented in the coming maneuver division at Fort Riley. Despite the flattering plana to have two full regiments, the First and Second, there from this stats there is now hardly a hope that so much aa a single guardsman will attend. After causing worry at army headquarters for two weeks, this fear that Ne braska will not participate has finally been accepted as lerv near a settled fact. Nebraska is no longer counted on for troops. In all arrangements for the camp, pending and competed, the Nebraska state militia Is left out of the reckoning. In camp location and division, in rations and In foder no plana are made for guardsmen from this state. This has been the necessary result of an utter Inability on the part of Major Oen era! Bates to get any word from those in charge of the Nebraska National Guard. As long aa two weeks ago communication were sent to Adjutant General Colby at Lincoln regarding the participation of Ne braska troops. Nothing has been heard from him. ' Other State Are la. Subsequent efforts to elicit a reply of some nature have been equally fruitless. Meanwhile Colorado and Kansas ofllclals have completed their arrangements with Major General Bates. Within two weeks all state militia troops are to be on tb scene. The si lence at the state capital seems to mean that Nebraska will not participate, and those In charge at headquarters here feel compelled ao to construe It. In an In definite way they are still hoping that Nebraska will get in, but on paper they do not figure. This will cut down the total soldiery at the camp considerably, as without the Nebraska guardsmen there will be no more tban 6,000 troops and A04 officers present. Should tardy indication of its Intention to have repreaentatlon In the maneuvers yet be received from Nebraska It will over turn considerable plana to date, though of course Major General Bates will be glad to have the two extra regiments on hand.

Members have been dissatisfied with tho progress being made in tho sal of tho common stock of the company and have for some time been casting about to dis cover the probable reason for the failure of the plan to become popular: John Becsn Ryan Thursday afternoon presented bis Ideas on the subject In such a man ner as to attract attention and yester day, by a unanimous vote, he was em ployed as manager of the enterprise and Instructed to put his Ideas Into effect. Mr. Nettleton, who was brought from Kansas City to act as superintendent of the enterprise, resigned, but bis resigna tion was not accepted. The board then discussed the reason for the usually small attendance at the meet ings and decided to trf another meeting place for a month.

It will be permiasible only It the management of the grounds agrees to kp lb streets In the enclosure absolutely clean, free of aand and dust. Tho who throw confetti will not bo allowed to pick a handful off of the streets to throw.

It may not be generally known, but there were a large number of persona last year who came very near losing their eyesight because of tho confetti throw ing habit. Clean confetti, of courae. Is not dangeroua, but the throwers do not atop at that. They pick up the stuff on the streets and with it they get all kinds of dirt and aand and It is too dangerous to permit "The blowing of horns In persons' ears la a nulaance and annoying. The shooting of blank revolvers la dangerous. I do not Intend to allow the diacbarge of anything like this, for the simple reason It gives a good opoprtunlty for snyons who so desires to fire a loaded revolver and aomeone Is sura to grt hurt It msy bs that I will be re versed oa this order, but I shall lasus tt nevertheless, snd If I am Instructed to rescind It I will. But I believe It will meet with the endorsement of the people, or at least a large majority of them."
