WHAT BRYAN SAYS.
The Democratic Party Cannot Serve Goo
and AIammon.

OMAHA, Neb., Nov. 9.-Congressman
W. ]. Bryan's explanation for the result
of the election is as follows:
s'Local troubles have complicated the
issues. Two causes have, IN my judg-
ment contributed to the widespread
Democratic defeat. The panic with re-
sulting financial distress and the hostil-
ity Of the administration to the
restoration Of silver. Gold and sill
yer must be placed on equal footing
and delay can only injure those responsi-
Bile for it. The Democratic party must
either espouse the cause of the common
people and live or become the champio
of consolidated wealth and die. 1t partly
secured tariff reform for the masses, but
allowed the classes to control our finan-
cial legislation. 1t cannot serve God and
Mammon- 1t must leave one or the other"

said:
"The result is not due to local causes.
The causes that produced it operated all
over the country, and I think were
largely due to widespread dissatisfaction
with the course pursued by the federal

AS TO WATERING COwG.

An European experiment in water
ing DAIRY cows shows that cows always
in their stable gave much better re-
suits when changed bacl, where they
could get water twice day. 1t was
found that the milk yield Increased
where the cows had access to water at
will, and no decrease of fat contents
occurred. The daily increase of milk
was SMALL but as ertimated it would
improve the yield forty gallons per
COW per year. A noticeable feature
of tho experiment is that the COWS
drank little less wien permitted to
drink Mt will than. when furnished
water twice day.
By, drinking often there was less
chilling of the stomach than where
water had to be taken twice day, and
each time in large quantities. The
digestion was improved, MS with each
small draught of water some gastric
iuice was secreted and went with it,
which was not the case to the same ex-
tent where large draughts of cold

Bumb!ebccs DESTROYED by Field Mice

It is reckoned that two-thirds Of the
bumblebees in Great Britain are de-
stroyed by field mice. The latter eat
the honey stored away by those in
sects and so starve them. Now. if is
literally true that any one who kills a
cat is upsetti ng the natural balance of
life to an ext ent which will have an
unfavorable effect on the productive
ness of garden and field. Pussy i

which clover and many other plants
absolutely depend for their fertiliza-

bees these plants do not ripen seed,

Herodotus, the father of history,
tells an odd story Of the invasion Of
Egypt and Judea by Sennachorib,
king Of Assyria The army Of that
monarch was assailed by swarms of
mice, which poured in upon the sol
diers, devouring their quiyers, bow
strings, and the leather handles of
their shields. Bereft of arms, they
fled in disorder, and great numbers Of
them were killed. This event was
commemorated by a statue Of the
Egyptian ruler with a mouse in his
hand.

Cus OH the Spy's Ears.

The following is an incident OF The
troubles between Spain aud the native
Moors in the Murilla district: A pa
troll of n Spanish band caught Moor
in Spanish territory, and, before the
captain heard of the capture, cut Of
the mans ears. II turned out, how
ever, that the Moor was a spy in the
pay of the Spanisrds, duly provided
with a safe conduct, and when he
reached the fort his cutlery against the
outrage to which he had been subject
ed produced great effect. He could
never return, he said, to his country,
for the very women would ask him
where were his ears that had heard
news in his own country which he had
carried to the enemies Of his people
He had abandoned country where
the inhabitants mutilated the dead,
and was now among a people who mu-
iilated the living. When Marshal
Campos heard the affair he ordered
a court-martial to be held. A member
of the band named Jose Ferreau Riera
confessed that he had cut off the ears.
Jose had some time before escaped in
to Moorish territory aud taken refuge
at the house of the spy, VINO had,
however, given him NJ to the Spanish
