A Mammoth Cleveland Demonstration
In Brooklyn.
NEW YORK, Sept. 23.-A Cleveland
demonstration was held at the Academy
of Music, Brooklyn, tonight, under the
auspices of the observation-disclosures
club. Ex-Secretary of State Bayard was
the speaker of the evening, and was
listened to by a large and attentive au-
dience. He criticised President Har-
rison's letter OF acceptance, and severely
scored the Mckinley doctrine OF protec-
tion., Touching on the Homestead diff
Guilty, Bayard said, one effect that must
survive the dreadful collision, is that
the highest wages paid in America are
paid in employments where there is no
protection at all.
Hon. John D. Herman, prominent
anti-snapper, also spoke. In conclusion
he said, referring to the anti-snappers
"We went to Chicago as Democrats, and
we returned as Democrats. We went to
settle our differences and settled them,
and now propose to unite in a supreme
effort to settle the Republican party"

attempting to poison his mother and
nephew. His father died some years

Medieval Europe knew but very little
Of eastern and northeastern Asia. Many
of the most learned cosmographers of
the time taught that Asia stretched east
ward indefinitely, and no one imagined
that it had an eastern coast washed by
the ocean. 1t was seriously taught that
eastern Asia was a land of vast swamps.
inhabited by monster selpents anal
dragons. This was the opinion that still
prevailed up to within 200 years of the
time of Columbus
At this time two Venetian merchants
by the name of Polo went on vast
trading expedition to the uttermost
parts of Asia. They were gone many
years. Upon their return the son of one
of them, young mM named Marco
Polo, wrote out full account of their
travels, described the empire of the
grand khan (the Chinese emperor) and
revealed the fact that Asia was bounded
on the east by a vast ocean. He de-
scribed this eastern coast minutely,
with all its vast cities and its wealth of
precious stones and spices.
1t was from reading this book that the
imagination Of Columbus was fired, and
he conceived the bold conception of
reaching this eastern c;;;.st Of Asia by
sailing toward the west around the
earth.
So when he discovered Cuba be had
not a doubt that he had landed upon the
coast of Asia, and that he looked nron

CLOSE WATCH ON ANARCHISTS.
An Important Arrest May BE Made in Con
nectiOn with the FrIck Shooting.

An Important Arrest May BE Made in Con-
nection With the Frlck Shooting.
New York, July s5.-Inspector Steers,
on the strength of despatch from the
Chief of Police of Pittsburg, asking him
to locate some of the confederates of AL
exander Berkmann, assailant of H. G.
Frick, detailed two detectives to the
special duty of mingling among the anar-
chists on the East side of this city.
1t is possible the detectives may make
an important arrest.
Berkmann was a printers apprentice
when he arrived in this country several
years ago. In Vienna he was associated
with Joseph Peukert, an Austrian, who
has posed as a rabid anarchist for many
years in different parts of the world.
Berkmann was of late years one of his
most devoted pupils.
Berkmann secured job as compositor
in John Most's office at No. 1877 William
street, in the spring of this year. Up to
that time he had worked at odd jobs all
over the country.
That he had travelled a great deal was
shown bv his talk to his associates and
friends.
Most kept Berkmann from April 1 until
July 4. Then he discharged him for in
competency. Since then Berkmann has
been doing nothing, but is said to have
been drinking good deal.
Just when Berkmann left New York on
his errand of assassination was not to be
learned here to-day. Possibly the errand
suggested itself to him at the mass meet
ing of Socialists at Union Square on July
IL, when resolutions were passed demand
ing that Mr.. Prick be tried and executed
without leaving the trial jury any discre-
ton in the matter.

DEMOCRATIC NOMINATIONS.
FOR PRESIDENT,
GROVER CLEVELAND, of New York.
FOR vICE-PREsIDENT,
ADLAI E. STEVENSON, of Illinois.

A WOMAN who has been gathering
various statistics for the New York
Post on the servant question has found
that the average time that servant re-
mains in one family in this country is a
year and half. She believes that one
of the greatest difficulties in the way of
domestic service that is systematic and
economical is that no rewards are
offered in the way of promotion, and
little, if any, in the way of remunera-
ton. For this reason the intelligent SER
want is ever on the outlook for some
other trade that will better her condi-
ton. The step that will apparently do
most to remedy the existing condition
of things is the establishment of many
and good training schools for servants.
The worn saying, that good mistress
makes good maid, does not, she has
found, in the main hold good.

backward SPRINGS.

According to good authority the late
spring of this year is not the worst on
record. January and February of 1916
were warm and springlilxe. March was
cold and stormy. Vegetation had got
ten well along in April when real win
ter set in. Snow and sleet fell on sew
enteen different days in May.v In June
there was either frost or snow every
night but three. The snow was five
inches deep for several nights in sue
cession in the interior of New York, and
from ten inches to three feet in YER
mont and Maine. July was cold and
frosty, ice formed as thick as window
panes in every one of the New England
states. August was still worse; ice
formed nearly an inch in thickness and
killed nearly every green thing in the
United States. In the spring of 1917
corn, which had been kept over from
the crop of 1915, sold for from five to
ten dollars a bushel, the buyers pur-
chasing for seed. On May 10, 1889,
snow fell to the depth of a foot in
jamestown, Va, and was piled up in
huge drifts in most of the northern
states. There was snow in many parts
of Iowa and Illinois on May II, 1878,
and again as late as May 2s, 1882.
