PHONES 711 AND 3871 ; BRANCH PHONE 713 BRYAN DAY IN OMAHA (Continued from page 1) nearly two hours preached Democra tic doctrines to a willing congrega tion . Mr. Bryan entitled his speech "A Word of Encouragement," and deyot cd his remarks to the producing of evidence to show the growth of Democratic policies - and principles and the basis for Democratic hope. He spoke in part as follows: "Our trouble used to be to persuade the Republicans to accept Democratic policies; our work now is to expose the imitation by them of Democratic ideas and to point out wherein they come short in their effort to appro priate Democratic doctrines. Take for instance the trust question. We had difficulty 'convincing the Repub Ecans that there were trusts. Now they admit trusts exist We had dif ficulty convincing them that criminal law should be enforced against trusts; now they admit it should be enforced but fail to enforce it Insofar as they have acted against the trusts at all they have acted along the lines laid down by the Democrats, but the trust magnates are still at large, the let It has made no effort to stop gambling the fruitful cause of pan ics; it has made no effort to furnish government notes for an emergency, and it has made no effort to protect depositors; "The Democrats face the future Cave grown in popularity as the have with hope and their hope rests on a firm foundation. Democratic policies have grown in popularity as the vot ers have become better acquainted with the evils to be remedied. "Another reason for hope is to be found in the fact that the Democratic party is united while the Republican party is divided. Third cause for hope is to be found in the moral awakening. Never within a genera tion has there been such a stirring conscience and the sense of justice in herent in the people has been made sensitive to the domestic appeal which is essentially an appeal for justice. POPULISTS FOR BRYAN. OMAHA, March S.-The Populist state convention here today decided to recognize the call of the national committee and to send a full delega tion to the national convention at St Louis. Thirty-seven delegates were selected for that purpose and were instructed to vote and work for W. Bryan. TO CURE A COLD IN ONE DAY. Take LAXATIVE BROMO Quinine Tablets.

New York yesterday received its first consign ments of this year's Easter bonnets. They came on the liner Oceanic and more than 100 customs inspectors double the number that have beeiuat docks during the winter season were present when the steamer came along side the pier. A large number of New York milliners who have been in Paris for some weeks, returned on the Ocanic, accompanying the bon nets. Inspection of the lot of fine millinery was an impressing sight as more than fifty large trunks contain ing Paris hats and bonnets were sent to the appraisers stores where a special examination wijl be made. LIFE-SAPPING PARASITES WRECK HUMAN SYSTEM The following remarkable Bient was recently made by L. T. Cooper. It concerns the preparation which has been so widely discussed throughout the country during the past year, and has sold in such enor mous quantities in leading cities: "It is now a well-known fact that wherever I have introduced my New Discovery medicine, hundreds of peo ple have brought internal parasites, or tapeworms, to me. In many cases these people did not know the nature of the parasite, and were consequent ly extremely nervous until I explain ed the matter to them In some cities to many have had this experience that the public generally became alarmed. "I take this opportunity of ex plaining what these creatures are, and what I have learned about them in the past. .. "Tapeworms are much more com mon than would be supposed. 'I ven ture to say that 10 per cent of all chronic stomach trouble, or what is knowji as a 'rundown' condition, is caused by them. An individual may suffer for years with one of these state-! great parasites and not be aware of it "Contrary to general belief, the ap petite is not greatly increased it only becomes irregular. There is a gen eral feeling of faintness, however, and a gnawing sensation in the pit of the stomach. "People afflicted with one of these parasites are nervous and depressed. Their chief sensation is one of lan guor, and they tire very easily. Lack of energy and ambition affect the body, and the thind becomes dull and sluggish. The memory becomes not so good, and the eyesight is generally poorer. "The New Discovery, in freeing stomach and bowels of all impurities, seems to be fatal, to these great worms, and almost immediately ex pels them from the system. I wish to assure anybody who has the ex perience just related with my prepa ration, that there is no cause for alarm in the matter, and that it will as a rule mean a soeedy restoration to good health." The Cooper medicines are a boon to stomach sufferers. We sell them. Chas. Rogers & Son. LATEST m SUITKIGS Having returned from San Francisco with a splendid stock of spring and summer suitings of the latest style and having spent several weeks in studying the fashions prevalent in that city, we are now more than ever in a position to give thorough satisfaction to the most fastidious dresser NOT IN WORDS, BUT IN DEEDS. HAUTALA & RAITANEN Tailors, Corner Eleventh and Bond Streets BODIES IDENTIFIED (Coattnucd from page 1) of these led to the door in front, the other to the door in the rear. It was in this last place that the lives of the little ones were lost while would be rescuers stood helpless. The scenes that were enacted in the front hall will never be known. The door at this side of the building was never fully opened. But a pile of little bodies that lay in the blackened wreckage beneath this point, the feet, hands, the limbs and the skulls that were scattered about formed a com plete index to the horrors that had taken place. When the teachers were informed of the existence of the tire they promptly formed the pupils in columns of march, according to the fire drill, which they had so fre quently practiced and started them for the door. They had trained the children to march always toward the door in front and instanctively the columns headed that . way and the children unknowingly were by their teachers hterally marched into the very face of death. When knowing nothing of the fire on the stairs be low, kept pressing down and within a few seconds there was a jam, panic and struggle on the stairway and behind the half closed front door that nothing stop and which cost the lives of all who were caught with in it A far worse tragedy, however, was enacted at the door in the rear. This, it is said by many people, opened like the front door, toward the interior of the building. In order to reach this entrance the pupils were compelled to march down a stairway, make a sharp turn and then pass through the door way. It was the lack of space in the hall and the quick bond at the foot ot the stairs that cost so miny lives at this point When the first of the chil dren fleeing from the front appeared at the door it was closed. Later it was opened, despite the terrifying jam that took place behind, it. This would indicate that the door opened out- ! ward, but the assertions to the con trary are many and positive and it will probably require an official in vestigation to dctemine the facts. Fleeing from a fire in front, the children, tumbling down the stairs in a frenzy of terror, blocked the pas sage. The stairs themselves were broad, affording passage to more chil dren in a second than could pass through the hallway and through the narrow vestibule of the door in ten second. At the bottom of the stairs, right on the turn, somebody tripped and fell. In another instant others were down and in less time than it can be told the doorway, the hall and the foot of the stairs were packed with little bodies. They were wedged so tightly that of those anywhere below the top of the mass none could be moved by the utmost strength of two men combined. This was proven again and again, for the rescuers struggled and fought until their own hands were scorched almost to cinders and still they could move no children from RECIPE FOR COLDS. Mix half pint of good wills- key with two ounces of glyc- erine and add one-half ounce Concentrated oil of pine. The bottle is to be well shaken each time and used in doses of a teaspoonful to a tablespoon- ful every four hours. The Concentrated oil of piuc comes in one-half ounce vials packed securely in tin screw top cases which are intended to protect it from light and retain all the oriuinal oxone. Don't use bulk oil of pine or imitations of Concentrated. They are in- soluble and work havoc to the kidneys. Any druggist has the Concentrated oil of pine. It will also be found a most ex- cellettt remedy for lumbago and all forms of uric acid rheumatism. ( For this purpose it is taken raw, a few drops on sugar at night and morn- ing. Concentrated oil of pine is the result of many years' ex- perimenting by one of Phila- delphia's foremost doctors who after endless research at last secured a truly soluble oil of pine, so make sure to get the' real thing. It also makes an excellent salve to be applied externally on the chest or bruised parts. For this purpose a teaspoonful of the raw oil added to a saucerful of hot lard. M. MADELIN GOES HOME. NEW YORK, Mar. S.-Louis Mad elin, the French scholar and author, president of the Society of Historical Research, will sail for home to-day on the Steamer Savois after a five months tour of America extending from Boston to San Francisco, as the official representative and lecturer of the Allicnce Francais. Speaking of his impressions of America, M. Madclin says: "The west gives the foreigner the best opportunity to see America in its true state of devclopement grow- , & ing almost unuer onesa eye. san Francisco is a striking picture of nat ural beauty and of ruin. There is occasional talk of war there ami it is taken more seriously than in Wash ington, where I noted that the best informed quarters were most optical to the possibility of war. The dis patch of the American squadron to the Pacific was undoubtedly an ex cellent measure. Port Arthurs ex perience showed the advisability of taking precautions. San Francisco is preparing for a magnificent recep tion for the fleet. The yellow popu lation of San Francisco is seen to exist m the utmost tranquility anu there is no apparent idea of renewed outbreak against them." . Unequalled as a Cure for Croup. "Besides being an excellent remedy for colds and throat troubles, Cham berlain's Cough Remedy is unequalled as a cure for croup," says Harry Wilson of Waynetown, Ind. When given as soon as the croupy cough appears, this remedy will prevent the attack. It is used successfully in manv thousands of homes.

One man, Wallace Upton, fought for the life of his daughter at this point until he was so fearfully burned that he may die. The coroner's inquest was begun this morning when a number of wit nesses were examined without devel oping any testimony that was beyond mere opinion. The investigation held by the Collingswood school board which lasted far into the night brought these facts: One of the doors at the west entrance was locked. The partitions narrowed the exits by at least three feet. The flames came from a closet containing lime and sawdust. Three little girls had been found hiding in the closet earlier in the morning. There was but one fire escape and its use had never , been taught to the pupils. The survivors among the teachers estimate that only two or three min utes passed between the time the alarm was given until all escape was shut off. The buildintr was a fair sample of the kind of school construe tion used in small towns. The hall and stairways were closed between the interior brick walls forming a huge flue through which the flames shot up with great rapidity. The much mooted question as to whether the doors opened inward or outward was decided by the fire marshals to day who after examination stated that they opened outward. They were unable to determine whether they were locked or not, and the testimony on this point varies radically. FAST AUTOMOBILE.
