BRYAN UGES Hal WORDS Nebraskan Speaks at a Democratic State Convention, Gyl UL People’s Party in Kansas Has a Very Tempestuous Session. A A GRAND ISLAND, Nebr., June 24.—The Democratic State convention convened at 2 o'clock with over 1000 delegates in at- tendance. H. F. Travis of Plattsmouth was temporary chairman. After effeci- ing organization the convention listened to a speech by William J. Bryan. Bryan was received with liberal applause and delivered a stirring address. He pald his respects to the Tilden Club, which he said had ‘regaled ifself with a collation in the banquet hall and served a buffet supper to the rank and file in the base- ment.” “I have but one purpose,” continued Bryan, “and that is to help the Demo- | crats of the nation to write into law the i f Thomas Jefferson and An- on.”” He concluded by asking Democrats of Nebraska to stand squarely on the two previous platforms | and pledged his support to the ticket. Constantine J. Smyth, ex-Attorney Gen- eral of the State, nominated for Gov- ernor, defeating Victor Vifquain. Smyth was escorted to the platform and made a short address in which he thanked the | delegates and asked the convention to adopt a “thorough Democratic platform.” He said the fight was on the railroads and other corporations of the Stat®, and said the Democrats must push to the | front as never before. < ‘The People's TOPEK 2 June 2 | tion to-day completed the nomination of the following. ticket: Justice Supreme Court, four years— Frank Doster, Marion; six years—Ed S.

Powell, Reno; Superintendent of Public Insurance, D. J. Hart, Norton. The convention was the scene of a live- ly contest al day in regard to the gues- tion of fusion with the Democrats. There were a large number of straightout Populists in the convéntion who wanted | a ticket nominated without reference to | the wishes of the Democrats. While this | element was numerous enough to put up | a strong fight, it could not control t ! policy of the convention. Fusion was ac- | | | cordingly adopted. Very turbulent scenes marked the pro- | gress of the convention to-day. Harris, the temporary chairman, deliv- ered a keynote address this morning.

Nissing Woman’s Body Found. SANTA BARBARA, June 24.—The mys- tery of the recent disappearance of Mrs. Sadie Benson has been solved by the dis- covery of her body tioating in the kelp off Moores Landing, west o. thig city. She left her home about three weeks ago and at the time it was believed that she had committed suicide. It is supposed that, while suffering from temporary de- mentia, she found her way at night to the seashore and leaped from the whart at the landing. — e NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. DANDRUFF CAUSED BY A GERM. A. New Discovery That Xills the Germ and Prevents Baldness. Pretty nearly all the hair preparations for dandruff have some merit in allaying itching of the scalp and in being a fairly good dressing for the hair, but there is only one that recognizes what causes dandruff, falling hair and baldness and that destroys the cause, a little germ— and that is Newbro's Herpicide. This germ eats its way into the scalp down to the hair root, where it saps that vitality, causing dandruff as it digs up the scalp into little whitd scales. Unless it is de- stroyed there’s no permanent stopping of falling hair and cure of dandruff and baldnest Newbro’s Herpleide kills the germ. estroy the cause, you remove the effect, and Disdainful, Dr. Andrew P. Matson and his wife, who reside at 1769 Howard street, do not possess the “affinity that promotes and rreserves domestic—Telicity.” At least that is the burden of Anna Marie Mat- scn’s complaint in a divorce suit filed vesterday. For five years, alleges Mrs. Matson, she has suffered torture beyond description because of her husband's treatment. According to her complaint, Matson looks upon a woman as a chattel, unworthy of devotion or care, and fit only to act as a drudge and servant. Her every act, alleges the wife, offended her husband, and he never miss- ed an opportunity to humiliate her in the presence of others. She did not eat, to suit him, she alleges, neither did she walk, talk nor sit in a manner to meet with his approval. ‘“He even objected to the way I held my dress,” she alleges, “and caused me to feel greatly ashamed accusing me of being flithy in my bits. I possess a refined nature, and suffered agonies by reason of his constant fault finding.” A The Matsons are both dentists. . Mrs. Matson does the work, it is alleged, while her husband goes away on fishing trips, Mrs. Matson further alleges that she has earned the house rent and the gas bill, and has pald other household expenses through her efforts, She has done everything, she alleges, to make Matscr's life a happy one, but to no avail. Her every effort is treated with disdain, and instead of praise, love and affection she receives, she alleges, abuse and invectives. The couple have no children. were married in March, 1894. HOLLENBECK ESTATE WELL ADMINISTERED SAN JOSE, June 24.—The Mercury says regarding the settlement of the Hollen- beck estate: In the estate of Narciésa B. Hollenbeck, the final account of Alexander Peers, as ex- ecutor, was settled vesterday, and the es- tate, consisting of $8581 93 in money, was dis- tributed to V. Koch, as trustee, under the will of Mrs. Hollenbeck. The accounts settled re- lated only to transactions since the first of January last. Mr. Peers was appointed executor in April, 1881. On the 4th of last April an account’ was filed covering the ad- ministration of the estate from the 1st of Jan- uary, 1894, to the 1st of January, 1002. Eoon afterward the residuary legatees, by their at- torneys, W. A. Bowden and George F. Car- 1oll, filed & petition charging Peers with the fraudulent misapplication of about 26000, claiming that the estate was appraised at about $30,000 and had dwindled down to about . The facts, ag shown by the records of the probate, however, are that the eetate was appraised at $22,807 66, of which $21,795 was for real estate heavily incumbered. Peers £old the real estate for $26,431 93, out of which he paid the incumbrances. The court, in settling his account, decided that the estate had been honestly admirs- tered and with exceptional economy, and that the charges made against Peers were entirely unfounded. His accounts were settled as ren- dered. Peers, however, being unwilling longer to manage the estate, tendered his resignation 28 trustce, and Koch was appointed to succeed him. The estate was yesterday distributed to Koch as trustee, and the money pald over o him., They nary Crimes. BOSTON, Jure 24.—Suspected of th death of seven persons, but indicted for murdering only three, Miss Jane Toppan, who was yesterday declared insane, has confessed that she has killed during her career as a professional nurse not less than thirty human beings. This statement was made to Judge Fred M. Bixby of Brockton, senior counsel at the trial at Barnstable yesterday, when Miss Toppan was found not guilty by rea- son of insanity of the charge of murder- ing Mrs. Mary ibbs. Judge Bixby said also that Miss Toppan had admitted that she had set fires and committed other | serious acts. She said she could not heip | committing the crimes. She argued, | moreover, that she was not insane. The woman said she knew she was do- | ing wrong when she administered poison | to her victims and she rsked Judge Bix- | by how, under such circumstances, she | | | could be'of unsound mind. Morphine was Miss Toppan's agency for producing death. Many of the victims were unsus- pecting and most intimate friends. Others were the patients of reputable physicians, | who employed her on account of her abil- | ity as a nurse. Miss Toppan was so ex- | pert in her knowledge of drugs that she | was able to escape detection for years.

TEAAN AGOUSES THE PRESIDENT Representative T. H. Ball Makes a Sensational Statement. WASHINGTON, June 24.—Two notable speeches marked the closing of the gen- eral debate on the Philippine civil gov- ernment bill to-day. They were made by | Landis, an Indiana Republican, and by | Williams, & Mississippl Democrat. There | were_demonstrations after each conclud- ed. The other speakers to-day were Ball | of Texas, Jones of. Virginia, Shafroth of Colorado and Crumpacker of Indiana. The latter closed the general debate for tae| bill with a strong speech. Some routine business was transacted | in the House prior to the resumption of the debate on the Philippine bill. Bills were passed to establish a subport of entry at Naco, Ariz.; to appropriate $3000 | annually for the support and maintenance of the permanent international commis- | sion of the Congress of Navigation; to| authorize the Director of the Census to | compile statistics regarding irrigation. Ball of Texas, the first speaker on the | Philippine civil government bill to-day, made a sensational onslaught on the Re- publican_policy and on the _President.

On | the contrary, he sald, the committee told | the President that they were willing to | abide by the decision of the administra- tion. Landis thereupon repeated his state- | ment that Clark had boasted that the| Democrats had dragged the Republicans | into the war. “That's what we did!” shouted Clark. “And then when the war came with its problems, consequences and responsi- bilities,”” flashed back Landis, “you turned your backs and ran away A tremendous burst of applause greeted this reply. For fully a minute it con- tinued, until checked by the presiding of- ficer. Landis paid a glowing tribute to the bravery and heroism of General Funston. ing Funston swimming a river during the expedition which resulted in the capture of Aguinaldo, Sulzer of New York raised a general laugh by exclaiming, “Funston can’t swim.” LONDON, June 24.—Oxford University to- day conferred the honorary degree of Doctor of Civil Law on Joseph H.
