THE COURIER. &.V A trolley party attracted a great deaj of attention during the republican pa rade Thursday night. The car was ar tistically decorated with huge bunches of sunflowers. They were understood to be the clerks from Fitzgerald's store. The many friends of Mrs. Dr. Tucker will be grieved to learn the sad news of her death, which occured in Chicago Thursday at 11a.m. It is understood she died rather suddenly, although for seven weeks she had been visiting at her old home in that city. The Hamilton Cadets young ladies from Lexington, Neb., have been camp ing on the fair grounds during the en campment. They have been drilled by Captain Hamilton of Lexington, and they have learned from him to execute over two hundred different movements without command. They can spell any name at once by the Spencerian system in evolutions. From Lincoln the Ham ilton Cadets go to Omaha to take part in the AkSar Ben parade. Miss Henrietta Hollowbush gave a very merry watermelon feast last evening. A thoroughly good time was had by all the guests, who were: Misses Florence Farwell, Mae Moore, Grace Oakley, Alice Slaughter, Olive Latta and Miss Grace Ringsurd of Elk Point, S Dak. Messrs C Y Smith, Matt Bald win, Fred White, John Lottridge, Homer Honeywell and John Farwell; Mr and Mrs Frank W Smith and Mr and Mrs Henry Sutton.

Riordan, 1834 S street, when Miss Kate Wharton and Mr. Wallace Crandall were united in mairiage.The house was prettily dec orated. Quantities of ferns, roses and pink ribbon were used to good effect in the dining room. At 8 o'clock the bridal party proceeded down the stairs into the parlor to the strains of Men delssohn's wedding march, preceded by sweet little Catharine Virginia Becker, carrying the ring on a white satin pil low. The gown of the bride was of white organdie, daintily trimmed in ribbon and lace. She carried bride's roses. The bridesmaid, Miss Ria Bart leson of Macomb, 111., wore a very pretty gown of white organdie over pink. She carried white roses. Miss Jessie Whar ton served ices gracefully. About fifty friends were present. The out of town guests were: J. J. Wharton, the father of the bride, from Goodwin. Kas., J. J. Thomas, Dr. Schultz, Emma Jones, Seward, Neb. Mr. and Mrs. Crandall were stenographers in District Clerk Sam E. Low's office. They hare a host of friends who wish them unbounded happiness in their future life. They will be at home September 15,atl63GKstre t. The moon is presiding at all kinds of parties nowadays, at Burlington Beach, Ensign's farm and the many fascinating places just far enough from Lincoln and hard enough to reach, to invite the at tempt. Chaperoned by the lady in the moon, old enough to be a matron long ago, the men and maidens forget it is hard times and fancy they are mastered by the unconquerable. ''Give me but what this ribband bound Take all the rent the sun goes 'round." But the next morning things look differ ent. Herrick, Waller, Carew and Lovelace wrote valentine poetry for all the lovers that wish to woo well since. The fol lowing lines express the gentle passion of a lover who wishes first of all that his lady might recognize bis devotion. Per haps he really would relinquish the treasure of the Incas for her, anyway he wants her to believe that he would and so he puts it in roetry that her heart may be convinced if her head is not. Perpend: ONA GIRDLE. That which her slender waist confined, 'Shall now my joyful temples bind: No monarch but would give his crown His arms might do what this has done. It was my Heaven's extremest sphere, The pale which held that lovely deer: Mj joy, my grief, my hope, my love Did all within this circle move. A narrow compass! and yet there Dwelt all that's good, and all that's fair: Give me but what this ribband bound. Take all the rest the world goes'round. - E. Waller. The G. A. R. annual encampment on the fair grounds is a scene of thrilling life and activity. The one-armed and otherwise maimed old veterans strolling about the grounds or seated in front of the tents reminded another old veteran who bad come out with his daughter to look on, of the old camp grounds of his early manhood, only thee reminiscent soldiers have grey lank hair instead of the crisp locks of the soldiers of thirty years ago. Their eyes lack lustre except when the reveille sounds, or an old com rade recalls their expeiience together. Crowds after crowds came and went all during the week. As nearly as could be estimated 20,000 people a day have vis ited the camp during the week. The usual number of hand organs, merry-go-rounds and sideshows make a typi cal midway of the thoroughfare beforo the secretaries office. Some of the more thoughtful have decorated their build ings in the white city. These are a few of the campers: Mr. Culver, of Milford, state department commander; Gen. Dil worth and wifo, Hastings; Major T. S. Clarkson, Omaha; H. E. Palmer, Omaha; Gen. A. V. Cole, Juniata; Church Howe, C. E.Adams and wife, Superior; senior vice commanders of the depart ment, Gen. James D. Gage, wife and two daughters, Francis and Omar, of Fremont; J. A. Ehrhardt, Stanton; T. J. Majors and wife, Peru; junior vice-commander, J. H. McCall, Lexington; Dr. P. C. Johnson, Table Rock; O. R. Bee bee, Minden; John Steen, Wahoo; Capt. Lee, Oxford; Alex Graham, Beatrice; Chas. H. Douglas, Bloomington. Others were J. S. Miller and wife of Omaha; George Burrows, Grand Island; William Angan, Grand Island; Nat Corby, Ne ligb; James S. Auderson, Osceola; G. W. Nortam and wife, Weeping Water; D M. Strong, North Bend; R. K. Johnson, Valparaiso; James W. Dean, Firth; Geo. W.Churchill, Clay Centre; George M. Rogers, Hastings, and C. D. Alexander, Tamora. The following from Mrs. Burlingim was received too late to be placed on the page with the other letters from the Sorosis ladies. Many of the members of the club are out of town which ex plains the few replies. S. B. H. My Dear Miss Harris: Do you think it exactly kind to draw attention in this public way to our legal disabilities? Of course we can not vote and we know that everybody knows we can't, but to discuss it before those who can, what we would do if we could, gives me something of the feeling I fancy one would have if crosseyed and forced to serve as an illustration of that infirmity at a lecture. But if I could vote there are many reasons for voting for Mr. Bryan. First, he is a man of ability and integrity. Then he is our townsman and neighbor, and lastly he is the husband of our club president, and no member of Soro sis doubts for a moment that Mrs. Bryan would do gracefully and well anything she undertook, whether it was presiding at a banquet or in the White House. If I could vote, however, should an old time democrat, wandering homelees and forlorn, cast his eyes toward the repub lican camp? He meets with such a shower of protection and paternalism that he turns away, still seeking a refuge. Even if I could vote I don't beli ve I'd . But in case a sound money-tariff for revenue only-civil ser vice reform-economy in public affairs candidate should be nominated at Ind ianapolis, in fact, a man resembling J . Sterling Morton . My dear Miss Harris, yon have asked your quertion a week too soon. Ada Burli.noim. NATIONAL CONVENTION GOLD DEMOCRATS At Indianapolis, Jnd.

N'ature has provided that the youngest and most tender child shall have this food. In milk there is a generous supply of oil, or fat. This exists in the form of minute globules, or tiny drops. They are so small that it takes hours for them to rise to the surface, as cream. We say, "milk is an emul sion," because the oil is in this finely divided condition. Scotia 6mtifeiOTu of Cod-liver Oil with the hypophosphites, has the cod-liver oil in these fine globules, thus making it an emulsion. Boys and girls, as well as delicate invalids, can take cod-liver oil when prepared in this manner. In fact, it is well adapted to young children. The hypophosphites give strength to the nervous system and needed material to growing bone. Learn from nature : take cod-liver oil only as an emulsion. o cts. and Ji a bottle.
