PLANS FoR.ruE MASS MEETING
Democrats Meet and Decide on Its
Chief Features.

Democrats Meet and Decide on Its
Chief Features.
The Interstate Democratic ratification
committee; having charge of the arrange
meDts for the reception of Mr. Bryan when
he visits Washington, met last night and
practically completed the details for the
proposed mass meeting. All OF the sub
committees were present, acting under
the suggestion and direction Of the Demo-
cratic central committee.
Chairman Kalbfus of the central COM
mittee, is president of the various COM
mittees of the association cooperating to
make the mass meeting great affair. Mr..
T. F. Cooke of the central committee, is
secretary of the committees Of conference.
Mr.. Lawrence Gardner, national commit
teeman for the District, attended the meet
ing.
Two additional associations were repre-
seDted last night, the Jackson Democratic
Association, whose delegates were James
L. Norris and John E. Clark, and the new
South Washington club, delegates, James
B. wingate, jeremiah Mccarthy and Jack
son Yates.
Mr.. John BOYLE, chairman Of special
committee, reported that the committee
-bad waited on Senator Jones to ascertain
at what time Mr.. Bryan might be ex-
pected here, but had not been able to get
definite information. The committee will
be continued until. a report be made.
The committee on hall and music re-
ported that it had selected Convention
Hall as the place of the mass meeting
and had engaged Weber's band.
Mr. Whitteki ndt chairman of the COM
mittee on finance, reported progress which
was considered quite satisfactory. The
ratification committee will meet again
next Monday at the same time and place.
From all the talk, and there was
great deal aofa the enthusiastic, patriotic
kind, about the committees headquarters
last night, the mass meeting will he a
splendid demonstration.
They say that they can on an occasion
ike this get 5000 people into Convention
Hall. To this immense crowd Washington
will contribute the larger per cent, but it
fsnatufafls expected that hundreds of peo-
pie will be preseDtfrom Alexandria and the
surrounding country generally The idea
is to give Mr.. Bryan a practical demon
stration Of tho extent of the 'silver senti
meDt" in Washington. The Republican
committee doesn't take the same view of
the extent Of the, sentiment that is held
by the Bryan people. There is, however,
NO doubt that there will be big crowd
at Copyention- Hail.

THINKS She MET A JOCKEY
Police Believe Daisy Burrell Is
at Brighton.
Girl Answering Her Description Is
known to Have Alighted From
Train 1t Jersey City.

The police feel confident that Daisy
Burrell, the fifteen year-old daughter OF
william Burrell, who disappeared from her
horne in Del Ray. Va, Wednesday aiter'
noon, is not in Washington. Furthermore
they believe she is either in New York
city or in the neighborhood OF the Brighton
Beach race course.
A-man whose name the police refused
to give called at headquarters yesterday
and stated that from the description he
had read of Daisy he was sure she had gone
to New York. On the morning she left
home for Washington he started for New
York on the Al train over the baltimore
and Ohio Railroad. In the seat immedi-
ately in front OF him sat u rather oomeiy
girl dressed lust as Daisy is SAID TO have
been costumed.
She was unfamiliar with everything
around her and repeatedly TURNED TO the
man and asked questions.
II have friends living here, she Is
reported to have said when the train
reached Philadelphia.
When they arrived in Jersey City she
! aligbted. The man noticed that she wds
met by a small young man, who walked
with u swinging gait. 1t was alleged thut
the young people embraced and the meet
ing was evidently by agreement The
train moved on and that was the last The
informant OF the police saw OF them.
The father of the girl called at head
quarters yesterday and was told of the
above statement.
He was given the infOrmant's address
and later had an interview with him.
Mr. Burreii is now inclined TO believe that
1t was his daughter who got off II Jersey
City and that she has gone to Brighton
Beach with one OF the jockeys who FORM
erly rode at st. Asaph. lie din. not know

HAD TO KILL THE HORSE.
Shaft Driven Through. It's Neck I'm q
Runa way.

Shaft Driven Through. It's Neck I'm a
Runaway.
A horse attached to The carriage OF
Contractor James NJ. York ran away
yesterday afternoon and was transfixed
by the end of the shaft when the vehicle
came into collision with lamprost.
The animal had just been left by its
owner in front of house No. 81 1 Massa-
chusetts avenue, the reins being thrown
around a rost and n weight attached to
them. Wagon No. of the Washington
Brick Company then came along and struck
the buggy, frightening the animal and
starting him on mad gallopdownthes street.
The horse dashed into the iron IosIs and
telegraph poles in front of the parking
on the corner Of Ninth street and New York
avenue.
The vehicles was badly shattered and the
shaft was driven deep into the horses
neck. The street was filled with blood
and great excitement was caused in the
neigbborhood. After an examination OF
the wound by a veterinary surSconit was
deemed best to shoot the animal, which
was accordingly done. 1t was said by some
OF the witnesses OF the affair that the
driver of the brick compaDy's wagon was
asleep.

Citizens of Southeast Washington OBJ
Ject to Merry Go Round.
The prospect OF having merry-go-round
in his vicinity aused Attorney George E.
johnson, OF Southeast Washington, to pay
the District building visit yesterday. He
had Iearned that soine one whose name he
did not know had filed, or would file, an
application for the privilege Of locating a
machine near him, and called to protest
against it.
Mr.. johnson said the proprietor of the con-
cern had caDvassed among the residents Of
his straightforward, near Fourth and NJ streets,
for their approval OF his application, and
had inisstated the object he had in view.
Many of them, he said, had iDdorsed the
scheme upon the representation that the en-
tcrtainment was to be OF the Punch and
Judy variety, with good music added, but
when they earned it was to he a merry-go-
round instead about fifty Of them united In
written protest and filed the paper with the

The class play on Tuesday morning
was a travesty on the new woman.
The house was crowded and enthusi-

familiar with university traditions to
appreciate the jokes and hits. The
play was written by members Of the
class. It contained several funny stu
atoms, but lacked action and dialogue.
1t was made up Of declarations that
might have been broken into dialogues
and pantomime.
Misses Ena Ricketts,, Helen Har-
wood and May whiting were the lead
ing ladies and they took their parts
with real dramatic fervor. In the
rush Of parties, theses. examinations,
affairs and dressmaking that precedes

Political Points

L H. Jewett Of Broken Bow. candi-
date for treasurer. and Clark McNish
or wisner, the central figure in Joe's
combination Of Macks and Jacks, were
in the city this week. Mr.. Jewett has
developed a great deal Of strength in
the past two or three weeks and has
become a leading candidate. The peo-
pie in the Broken Bow district are en-
thusiastic for Jewett and they will
stay with him. Mr.. Jewett Is a young
man, comparatively. but he has taken
an important part in republican poll
tics for the past ten years. He was a
member Of the state senate Of 1889 and
he came out of that body with an ex-
cellent record.
McNish's backing Is against him. 1t
has developed that his candidacy
means the perpetuation of the BARLEY
regime, and it is known that he is
being pushed forward by every influ-
ence that Joe can command, including
all the state bank examiners. and a
considerable number of other employees
the part Of the people to take the Office
of state treasurer out Of the control of
the political ring. and the indications
are that McNish will be turned down
along with the grinning Jack.
II w. J. Bryan does not become the
nominee for president in Chicago he
will be nominated for congress. This
is the program that has been agreed
upon. Governor Holcomb is to be re-
nominated for governor.
A prominent republican from the in
terror of the state said to The Courier
yesterday: II have been much inter-
ested in the course Of the state press
in demanding a departure in the nomi-
nation Of candidates for state Offices
by the republican party this year, and
1 have been gratified to note that the
people all over the state are aroused
on this question. They are demanding

quiet, dignified canvass for the nomi-
nation. He Is not In any combination
or deal, and proposes to seek the nomi-
nation solely on his merits. Those who
know Mr.. McClay believe his nominal
ton would strengthen the ticket.
Particularly significant was the fact
that the republican county convention
in Buffalo county failed to instruct for
the laughing Jack candidate. Buffalo
county has been the headquarters for
the MacCo'l boom for years. Four
years ago William E. Smythe, then
editor OF the Kearney Enterprise, was
the chief fugle man of the MacColl
boom, and the MacColl movement was
managed from Kearney. Two years
ago Buffalo county instructed fer Mac
Coll. This year the man who is trying

candidate is mentioned they smile a
