TUESDAY MORNING. JUNE 81, 1926.
T. Yhe inaisposition Of the

t. Yhe inaisposition Of the
CARRIER for the lower section of the town
has produced an irregularity in the delivery OF
the Gazette, which shall be corrected as speedi-
" as possible. We trust our friends will con-
tinue their forbearance few days, and be kind
enough to inform US when they are neglected.
1t will be seen, by an advertisement in an adj
iacent column, that the Poetical Address re-
Gently delivered in Washington and this place,
by our fellow-citizen DANIEL BRYAN, Esq. is a
bout to be issued from the press Of Messrs. Way
* Gideon, Of Washington, for the benefit OF the
Boston Bard TO those who heard the Ad-
dress delivered, the advertisement will convey
all the information that is necessary; but as
the circumstances connected with Mr.. Bryan's
charitable efforts are still new to many, we take
this occasion Of again recurring to the distress
ed and helpless condition of poor COFFIN. He
is still aboring under the heavy dispensation OF
an iacurabe disease, which, besides occasion
ing painful disability, renders him wholly in
competent 10 contribute to his own support, or
to that of an aged and INDECENT mother. The
profits arising from the sale ofSIr. Bryan's Ad-
dress, will do much towards alternating the SUI
ferings Of the unfortunate Bard; and the favor
able reception of the Address by the public,
will tend to encourage native talent, and stimu-
l,,. ;.,hI f,rth her
exertions in the cause Of literature and philan-
throphy. Independent Of the laudable object for
which the Address is published, its intrinsic
worth will amply compensate the purchaser,
and its circulation will satisfy all who read it.,
that it is specimen Of genius highly credita-
BILE to our country We wish the book no bet
ter success than that its sale may be equal to
the merits Of the author, and the purity Of the
motives that urged him TO the task.
The celebrated Colonel Pluck OF Phladel-
phia,-- joking aside,-is actually to be in New
York on the approaching Fourth of July. A
purse has been made up for the purpose by the
wags in both cities. The National Advocate
states that the Baltimoreans were quite anxious
10 set Pluck among them, but they wished to
put Kean out Of the way before the Colonel
should be introduced. Accordingly they be-
haved so bad to Kean that Pluck swore big
military oath he would not be seen in mob-city.

sioners have directed survey of the proposed
