Colton, a traveling man, delivered an address to his follow commercial tourists at the Young Men's Christian assoclation rooms of which & brief synopsis is appended: You are uot invited hore today because you are considored worse than any other class of effort on our part in your behalf, but because you are just as good as any class of business men {n tho world. The class of men now on the road selling Koods in the west are as bright, energetic and capable business men as one can find en- gaged in mercantile pursuits in any of our thriving vities and towns in the country, and thay are just as good morally as these same local business men would be ifthey were away from the restraints o home and home fnfluences. The cares and trials of the commercial travelor are as great as are those that como to the merchantand banker, but these men buve a refuge, a home to go to after the per- plexing cares of the duy, and there he can find sympathy and love, The companionshiv of wife and loved ones dispels his_cares and makes him forget his troubles., Not so the commercial travelor: he | has perhaps labored hard all day, and tray- eled u greater portion of the night previous, and as he plods his way to tho botel, he may haveno ordersto send to his employers to show for his day's work. Itis with nolight heart that he drops into his chairin the cheerless hotel office to rest and think over the disappointments of the day. To the outside world who only see the ex- terior side of a traveler's life, it seems one full of eas? und pleasure. He is usually such & jolly, good natured fellow that you naturally infer thut his whole life is one round of gaiety, Ho has schooled himself to this bo- cause he must be pleasant and affable if he would succced in business, his iuner life is known only to himself aud those most in- timately associated with him. Many & traveling man in Nebraska, today, no doubt, has been long weeks and even mouths from home and loved ones, verhaps somwo of them have tidings from home that the dear futher, motfer, wife or child are sick, and that their présence av the sick , eouch is sudly needed, but busincss demands keop them & -{. and the heart longings are smothered in a long affectionate letter home, Ihave had such an experience and doubt- Jess someof you have. But & few months ago onaolourm‘ traveling men, while on_the rosd, received the terrible news that his Httle child was barned to death in & barn where it was play- ing. Littlodid that father think when he kissed the llttle ono at runm and went out 1o battlo with the world for his dally bromd, that it was the last kiss, and that the shadow of death would cross his threshhold before bis return, Litle we know of what may come upon our homes to casta shadow that will darken it for all time, as wo take our grip and put outinto the business world. r A considerablo number of the commercial travelers are young and single man, and they especially neéd companionship among you. Many of thom are new in the business and meet with sharp competition from the older and more experienced men in their line and consequently way feel discoiraged at times and need a word of sympathy and encourage- ment, I always feel sympathy for a young man just entering upon the lifeot a commercial trayeler. Jompanions of the grip, in behalf of the Beatrice Young Men's Christian association, Tinvite youto make these rooms your home whenover you can do so. You will be wel- come always. Vou will find here magazines, daily papers and a library of choice books all of which are freeto you. 3 You will herenieet with companionship that is refined and elevating, Should any of you desire to lead & bevter life—which we hope you mas—you will hero find help and sympathy from many who have sought and “found the pearl of great price.” The Young Men's Christian association noeds your help and your influence, Tt is'in your power todo a good work by helping to make others better. Your occu- pation brings you incoutact with a_great many peovle, andyou can help _to mako tho aim and objects of the Young Men's Chris- tlan association better understood by the masses. A New Swindle. A commercial travoler who solls fountain pens said yesterday : “T'ne latest swindle is accomplished by means of adouble fountain pen, one end filled with good ink. the other with ink that fades away in a day ortwo. The sharper's plan is to call on farmers or others, make a trade soadvantageous to them that they are willing to agree to it, write the contract or agreernent with the ink that fades, then manage so that the victim signs it with the ink that lasts. Then, in a few days, they have the name on a sheet of blank paper, on which any sort of & note can he written.” . Samples. 3. W. Cook left Saturday for St. Louis for a few dayson business. M, Fred A.

A FIVE-HOUR BATTL After Ninety Rounds Daly and White Make & Draw. The feathor-weight battle between Danny Daly of Bangor, Me., and Tominy White, the Chicago board of trade protege, which took place under the auspices of the Magle City club at Gormania hall, South Omaha, Satur- day night, was ono of the longest feather- weight fights on record. The two men step- ped to the ring at 10 o'clock sharp, and from that hour on until 8:30 in the morning they futilely struggled for supremacy. Both men were superbly esquired, Daly by Pat Allen and Ed Rothery, and White by Harry Gilmore and Ned Crane, and being in porfect fighting fig, and evenly matched, a long contest was inevitable. It soon became evident that victory dopended eithior upon a charice blow or upon the superior endurance of_ono man or thoother, ‘White, who is a slender youth of the grey- hound order, was in the fullest flush of health and strength and gavea rare exhibition of the brauties of the Delsartiun movement. Not @ whit_behind him, how- ever, was the doughty little downcaster. He is as staunch and well.trigged outas any man in his cluss in tho country, with stocky legs and arms and a torso fairly corrugated with usclez. He wore & look throughout that seemed to say, “Well, the best. ho can ever do is to make s draw of this.” White, it must be understood, had the ad- vantage of height and reach, and throe- quarters of a pound the best of it in weight, and was espected to do Danny at a jog. As round after round was reeled off, However, with no marks of punishment marring visago or body of cither man, and as at each suc- cessive call Dily stepped up apparently fresher than ever, the idol of the Windy city's board of trade realized that he had met a foeman worthy of all his brains ana muscle, all his science and skill, and that he must gruard himself well or succumb to the stocky little New Englinder himself. White, uaturally enough, was the ag- gressor, but_inall of his repeated vushes ho failed to lund a singlo offective blow, but re- ceived instead & couple of cross-counters from Daly that reminded him more thun ever that there were two of them *‘in it.” “Tho fight finally simmered down to a harm- less exhibition of how notto get hit, both men exemplifying all its boauties with a suc- coss that was more monotonous than refr - ing. - Ttwas long abour 8 oclock 1n the morning anathe men had been fighting, or fiddling, vather, steadily for over five lours, with g evidentes of i battle ol han an abraded cheek bone sustained b cand @ slightly slashed lip for Mr. White, when Referco Wilson held ashort re informing the men that they could have just ten mmore rounds in which to settlo thequestion of supremacy, and if this had not been accom- plished iu that time he would call it a dvay, Aud a draw it was, mucl to the disappoint- ment of the very large and very sleepy crowd in attendance. Yet it was agreat battle, and there wereno grounds for dissatisfaction, as both men did their level best to win the purse, although in the majority of the rounds there wasu't a blow struck. e The harsh, drastic purgatives, oncedeemed 80 indispensable, hivo given plice tomilder and more skillfully prepared laxatives; hence the great and growing demand for Ayers Pills. _ Physicians everywnere recommend thom for costiveness, indigestion and liver complaints. ————— MHORIUARY. The home of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Creigh- ton was clouded in deepest sorrow vesterday by the death of their little three-year-old Aaughter Lucretia, carriodaway after a short iilness by diphtheria, The memory of this sweot-faced cbild will “like the perfure of roso leaves” long remain with those who wese familiar with the loving ways and her attractive baby manner. She possessed a wonderful mind and a disposition of loveli- ness that endeared her to all. Though her 1ife was spanned 1.¥ three short years, they were years 50 full of interesting, childish in cident that mot only will pavents and rela- tives miss their afectionate little one, but hosts of fricnds who daily saw their beauti- fulbaby friend, and enjoyed her innocent prattle, will be deeply grieved and sadly ro- alize the truth of the words, “‘death carries in bis arms the sweelest blossoms of earthly hopes.” Pl ol How to Choose a Oollege. ¥riendly advice to young men on_ this sub- ject will be contrivutel to the forthcoming volume of The Youtl's Companion by Presi- dent Seth Low of Columbia, ex-President Andrew .

Rabdbi Rosenan's Plan for Amelorats ing His Condition. A large audience gathered at the temple of Ksrael last Friday night tohear Rabbl Rosenau deliver his discoursoupon the subject,*‘What Can We Do for the Russian Jews!” His renarks were substantially as follow: “Sympathy s one of the graad elements of human nature, and is domonstrated in va- 008 ways and undge many ciroumstances. “Oftimes when Shers are happy we smile with them; when others rejoice wo rejoice with them; when others are unsuccessful we share their despondency, and when others weep wo sbhed tears of sorrow with them, But itis not always necessary to come in contaet with the unfortunate to have that noble fecling of sympathy aroused in our hearts. Weo can lear, we can read, and the fpressions thus formed will arouse (he feeclligs of sympathy as uickly as though we were eyo-witnesses to the oceurrences, “Where can you find a man or woman who has carefully read the pages of Jowish his- tory who has not shed tears when the atroci- ties committed against our people have been correctly portiayed! Take the mgyptian bis- tories, and you will hnd them full of accounts when men haye been thrown upon the ground and brutally lashed for expressing their re- ligious beliefs, It s on account of thesa acts of cruelty that our hearts bleed forour suf- fering people. “In these same histories wo read that there was o determined effort to persecute the Jow- ish people and root them from the face of the earth. Such things cause our hearts to bleed for our beloved people, We read of the or- ders compelling tho Jews to fall down and worship tho _idols, all of which causes our hearts to bleed when wo realize the sufferings thatour :lu-lu\-ea people have been compelled to en- ure. “But let us come nearer to the present date, Hosts of armies were sent against our peo- P theit temples were torn down and bul- ocks put upon the altar; our people were taken captives and carried away to Rome, where many of them were sacrificed for their adherancy “to their relicious faith. This causes our hearts to bleed for our ancient beloved people. We vead of men and women who were slaughtered simply because they believed in the teachings of Mosns, and our hearts bleed as we think of the awful pers. cutions that our beloved people were com- pelled to endure. “Let us fora moment consider tho reign of Isabellaof Spain. Her edict went forth, ban- ishing to starvation and death all of our pe ple who differed with her in religious view: The problem that is before us is, what can wedo to help our sufferiugand persecuted people of the present dayi “Let us take the Jowish people of Russia and we fina that the young men and women who are of the Jewish faith are not allowed the privileges of the institutions of leaming ; they may be capable and possess all of the qualifications, but they are denied admission tothe University of St Petersburg merely because they are the people of Is They are sent back to their homes in disgrac This is not all. Our people are hunted down and the most exhorbitant taxes ave levied againstthem, Men are not only taxed on the they own, but they are compelled to xes upon the necessaries of 1ifo, and 1t is no uncommon sight to see families driven from their homes, out into the cold world, because they are unable to pay the tax levied upon them. Our people are forbidden to own property, and they are forbidden to leave the country where thoy are so cruelly oppressed. 1f they should by ~chance manage toget away, they are followed, their property confiscated, and in many instauces they forfeit their livés to pay tho penalty. “The czar of Russia prants franchises to the Buddhist who will make his home in that land, but not to our people, and by this course the Russian Jew is keot down and forced to spend his life in idleness. “The other day I read of a Russian official who was anxious to have a fou] and filthy sewer cleaned withont incurring any ex- pense to the government. He knew that hundreds of Jewish families wero starving, and going to the sewer he commenced an examingtion. In a& short time a large niaber of the poor Jews congregated about him and asked him why he was 50 intently gazing hito the sewer. He explained that he had lost avaluable jewel and would give £25to the man who would find thegem. These men thought of their starving chillren at home, and going down into the mud they soon had the sewer clean- ed, while the official laughed at the trick he had invented to save the expense that would have been incurred had he hired the work performed. Thus are Jows treated in Russia. “What canwe do for the Russian Jews! “I'nere are wmany solutions of this prob- lem and each is advocated by men of ability. Some assert that the duty of these people is to fight, and by might and main gain their religious and civil liberty. But how cruel! Others again propese another solution, They say thotevery press, every pulpit and every legislature in the civilized world should send addresses to the cur, osking that these people be : « “Noother [Weekly Paper gives 30 large a Fariey of Instrustive and Entertaining Matter af #0 low a price” Announcements for 1891 — Continued.

How They are Hereafter to be Regu- lated in this Country. With a view to lessening the number of ugold-wave" warnings and confining thern to the more pronounced cases, thus giving the displays of signals groater prominence, Gen- oral A, 'W. Greely, chief of the weather bureay, has issued a bulletin of instructions outlining the plan to pur- sued in the future in issuing warnings of the approach of cold-waves and in issuing forecasts of anticipated sharp falls in temperature, which maynot be of suf. clent soverity to warrant the display of the teold-wave signal,” The plan, as given, is as follows: “Warn. ings of cold waves and other temperature falls are issued from the signal office at Washington when it is expected that they will be so sudden and sharpas to materially interfere with the comfort of the community or cause dumage to material interests. A m)d wave, in general torms, is defined to be # fall in temperature, over an extensive ares, of 202 in twenty-four, or 2 in {orty-eight hours, and to the freczimg point or bolow, Warnings of cold waves are issued when it 1s expected that the erea affected will exceed 100,000 square miles in extent, and in well-defined cases for alosser area. In the past ten years there have been 021 instances in which tempevature falls of 20= in 24 hours have occurred over arcas ex- ceeding 50,000 square miles in extont, and 150 cases in which the area was between 50,000 and 100,000 square miles. The arcas of tem- perature falls of 20= or over are often of very great extent, sometimes exceeding 1,000,000 square miles. The average extent of these areas, including all above 50,000 square miles in extont, is 287,000 square miles, The aver- age are of 2= falls, inctuding only such cold waves as exceed 100,000 squere miles ADWAY" Y PILLS:N THE GREAT LIVER and STOMACH REMEDY Oures all disorders of the Stomach, Liver, Bowels, Kidneys, Bladder,Nery- ous Discases.
