HALL REFUSES TO RUN (From a Staft Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Aug. 2.—(Special)—1f the t-together meeting of the democrats Saturday night brought about a better feeling among the badly demoralized forces of a once powerful party, it was not apparent after the close of the meet- ing. There was every indication that thelr short term of power had made them intoxicated for office and while in former | years they have submitted to the leader- ship of Mr. Bryan without much of & murmur because there was everything {to gain and nothing to lose, now that the thing has changed around and the; is everything to lose and nothing much to gain, they are fearful of the future and look with suspiclon upon Mr. Bryan or any other leader who appears to want | to boss the party The speech of Harry Fleharty of Omaha was along the lines of a get-together epirit. “It makes no difference whether you are for Bryan or Hitchcock,” sald the Omaha statesman, “be a democrat.” This sentiment did not appear to meet with & hearty response all around and many were the expressions of disgust after the thing was over. Criticiam of Fleharty. ‘Harry made a pretty good speech,’ #aid one state house democrat, after the | meeting was over, “but darn him," he needn’'t think he can make us swallow | Bryan.” He didn't say “‘darn” but some- | (hing more expressive. “Some of those fellows will have to answer to me,” sald Felix Norton, jour- na historian and statesman. Some of the things they said will be met by me in a way that will make squirm.” | It was noticed that Felix was taking { them | notes during the speech of governor Morehead, but that he appeared to be asleep while Fleharty was talking. Who will be required to account to the king for his utterances ls not known, but as | the king is “‘agin” Bryan, Hitchcock and the governor, all three, it is probable that | the triumverate will find themselves in | bad when Newton calls them to account. | Hall Is Not Candidate. Many listened to Dr. P. L. Hall, ex'| pecting something which would give peo- | ple a line on how he felt regarding the | governorship. The only thing he said on thie score was the remark: I have never asked for an office in my life and will."” When asked by newspaper men later whether, it forced into the nomination he would not make the campaign, he | simply said that he would never m-k»l the campalgn for governor. l Dr. Hall in his speech claimed all the Klory for progressive legislation for the | ropulists and democrats.

To get rid of that shiny and muddy appear- | ance in your comvlexion, dissolve four ounces of spurmax in one-half pint hot water, and add two tea- spoonfuls glycerin. Apply this to your face, neck and arms, rubbing gently until dry. This lotion does not show or rub off like powder and is much better. It is splendid for re- moving tan, freckles, pimples and sallowness. You can make a delightful sham poo for a very trifling coet if you get from your druggist a package of canthrox and dissolve a teaspoonful in & eup of hot water. Pour a little at a time on the scalp and rub brisk- ly. This creates an abundance of thick, white lather that thoroughly dissolves and removes all dandruff, excess ofl and dirt After rinsing, the hair dries quickly, with a fluffi- ness that makes it seem heavier than it is, and takes on a rich luster and a softness that makes arranging it a pleasure.—Advertisement. which no insurance, was dan aged by water 5\vwl his he A goods rned BODY OF DROWNED BOY IS BURIED AT WYMORE FALLS CITY, Neb, Aug Special) Harold Himberger of Omaha identified the body of the boy floater found in the Missourt river several days ago as his son, Earley Himberger, § old. who fell into the Missouri riv AL Omaha August while playing along shore in & skiff.
