Sentenced to Siberia.

A nobleman once entered into con-
spiracy against the Russian emperor
and was sentenced to Siberia. His eyes
were bandaged, and he was put into a
dark carriage, and for seven days and
nights they travelled on and on, only
stopping to take food. At last he felt
they must have reached Siberia, and in
the utmost anguish he perceived that
the carriage had stopped, and the band
age was taken off his eyes, and--he was
in his own home! He had been driven
round and round st. Petersburg the
whole time, but the fright cured him.

Inhabitants say that no other attraction
has ever drawn so strongly in Colum-
bus except a display of fireworks in
connection with the state fair on the
same grounds two years ago, when 40
per cent more people were gathered. A
rooted and fag-draped platform faced
the eastern front of the capitol build
ing, and as Mr.. Bryan looked down
from its height, twenty feet above the
street, he saw the steps and terrace
packed in solid rows, with the gloomy
stone wall for the background, while
about the other three sides of the stage,
across a lawn of several acres to the
street beyond, stood regiments of which
an accurate estimate was an impossI-
bility and which careful guess would
place at 10000. Looking down from
the roof of the capitol building an hour
before the candidate arrived one saw
the whole place, on all sides, swarming
with men, women and children, large
part of the city's population, reinforced
by visitors to the state fair, now in
progress.

On account of the size of his audience
Mr. Bryan adopted a novel method of
speaking, talking to sections of t. vast
crowd alternately from each of the four
sides of the platform and even then not
more tenth of the people could hear
him. He was introduced by Hon. AL

high school cadets returned from Oak

experience with mob. Great crowds
of delighted visitors to Oakland for
three days viewed The drills. The ca
diets won distinguished consideration
and about all the honors they could car

that mob had been organized to tear
down their tent, smash up their compa.
ny property and run them out Of camp,
supposed to be a plan af the rival militia
organizations, There were thirty eight
members of the company present and
they prepared to defend themselves and
the states property in their possession.
A few minutes before 3 O'Clock this
mornins mob appeared, 200 strong,
armed with all kinds of weapons Tie
cadets had thrown out double guard
line which met the hoodlums with their
guns. The cadets did not have their
bayonets or they would have used them
with good effect. Lieut.. Charles Saylcs
met the leader of the gang and warned
him away. The warning had the effect
of attracting the attention of the leader
TO the young officer and he was prompt
ly attacked and knocked down. The
cadets dubbed their guns and rushed to
the rescue. The leader of the mob was
roughly handled in the melee that fol.
lowed and several of the cadets received
bruises and black eyes that rendered
that member temporarily useless. The
assault OF the mob was becoming so
and dangerous the cadets
were on the point Of resorting to the use
of their guns when a lull occurred.
