Mr. Bryan made speeches in nine
ty-two cities in the campaign, and il
has been discovered that while these

155,765 four years ago, they gave
Mckinley plurality of 450.052 last
week, making Republican gain Of
GOSSIP Mr.. Bryan is an orator, but
oratory is not always convincing to
voters. They want facts and logic, as
well as high sounding phrases.

who got licked, but was unwilling to

not want to admit it.

IT appears that in ninetytwo cities
in which Bryan made speeches dur
ing the campaign, a Cleveland plu-
rality of 155, 765 in them four years
ago was changed into a Mckinley
plurality of 450.052. This indicates
that a political circus attracts great
many people who 60 home and vote

FEATHERED CANDLE SHADE.
How Idle Woman Can Turn Barnyard
 Trophies to Account.

Now that candle shades are so much used, new ideas in this line are very much in demand. One of the very lat est fancies is to make these little shades of feathers. The way this IS done is very simple. First, cut card board foundation, and cover it with sill to match your feathers. This must be done very neatly. Then get some soft, long feathers from your poultry man, who will probably keep few for you when plucking fowls if asked to do so; or, if you live in the country, and have hen-house of your own, all the better, as you can then have as many as you like. Dye the feathers any artistic shade you fancy. When quite dry, shake them out before fire, and sew them around the foundation so that the long ends come far below it. Catch them here and there invisibly, so that they may not slip, and round the toI twist baby ribbon and tie in tiny bow at one side. The best colors and those which conceal the light least are scar let and yellow. The little brass holders which fit on to the candle and hold the shade in place can be bought anywhere for a small sum. Parrots feathers look charming on these shades, and very good effects can also be obtained by using peacocks' feathers, the lovely shades of blue and green looking quite delightful with the soft light under neath.-Chicago Inter Ocean.

 She awokc with a start and there was a little cry of alarm on her lips as she sat up in bed. For moment she did not fully realize where she was. Then she missed her husband from her side and hopeful expression lit up her face. Propping herself upon one elbow she proceeded to listen. It was as she had hoped. In few moments she heard her husband out in the other room. He was uttering shrill cries of terror and seemed to be trying to rout some enemy.
 He's got 'em again." remarked his wife, after she had listened to the sounds for a little while. "I thought that last hot-scotch would fetch him
 Getting out of bed, she went into the other room and lit all the gas jets. Her husband was rushing up and down the room in a frenzy, first pointing at one of the corners and then running his thin, tapering fingers through his long hair.
 Do you see them all?" asked his wife, anxiously.
 "Yes," he replied, in hoarse voice; "there is the girl with the green hair, over near the bookcase, the pink dog is up in the chandelier, while you'll find the horse with the purple mane in the ward robe, where I chased him awhile ago."
 There was happy smile on the wife's face as she ministered to her husbands needs. First she wrapped him careful ly ill large shawl and then led him to chair, in which she fastened him by means of clever arrangement of straps, which allowed his arms to be free. Then she drew an easel with a fresh canvas on it before him, tied his pallet in position and placed his paint and brushes within reach.
 "Tll be all right now," he said. of you'll only give me nip out of .he bottle to brace me up."
 "I hope so, Lorenzo," she returned. 'We owe two months rent and the grocer has become rather tiresome. ' After putting her arm around his neck and kissing him she went back to bed.
 When she awol<e in the morning and went into the other room to turn out the lights her husband was putting the furnishing touches to new-style poster.

At 1l:35 the delegations began to ar rive-those of California and Maine being the first to enter the hall. They did so without demonstrations. Other state delegations poured in rapidly, and soon the sections assigned to them began to fill up. The clash of brass bands was heard from time to time, denoting the ap- proach of delegations. The Massa- chusetts men, under the leadership of Senator Lodge, wearing smile of sat isfaction on his face, and a rose-col- ored boutonnaire, took his seat quietly.
 Prominent among the Colorado men was Senator Teller, who chatted pleas antly with those in his neigh borhood and saw" Mir. Lodges challenge, with silver-white rose in his button hole.
 At F o'clock all the delegations had arrived and been seated, without any special demonstrations, except when MT. Platt, of New York, was seen, and then some cheering and other mani festations of admiration took place.

 The doors were not open for general admission until about 11:l5, and from that time on spectators made their way to the galleries, but not in large num- bers, the tickets for admission being put at the high figure of $40 for the set that is, for every session of the con-
