A Cheap Campaign.

There is nothing more in the reit.
Grated complaint of the Bryan organs
that Organs speeches are not print.
ed " thaD an attempt to secure the cir
culalion of the campaign literature
of the Populist Democracy without
expense to that organization. Since
the campaign began the POpocrats
have resorted TO cheap devices to cir.
culate their campaign arguments.
The Government prining office has
been drawn upon for all available
parts Of the Congressional Record,
which have been frauked out from
Washington. When that supply Of
cheap thunder was about exhausted
the National Committee headquarters
at Washington were closed.
But that did not exhaust the re.
sources Of the cheap money crowd to
get cheap phrases before the public
by cheap methods. Candidate Bryan
was sent on spectacular tour "into
the enemy's country" with the assur.
anoe that whatever of the dignity of
a Presidential candidate was saeri-
fl ced would be compensated by the
publication Of his arguments by the
newspaper press Of the country.
When the travelling candidate de-
generated to a mere repetition of his
contradictory cant, aud the uewspa.
pers could find nothing new iu them
to print, the organs began to howl
that the speeches Of Bryan were not
printed Influential Popocrats,
wherever any could be found, were
posted to send complaints to the
newspaper offices and so the plea has
kept up.
AS matter Of fact Candidate
Bryan has received more liberal
treatment at the hands of the news
paper press and even Republican or.
gGns than any candidate who ever
made canvass for the Presidential
office. They have permitted him to
occupy columns Of valuable space
with his cheap assertions, reiterated

opening the consulate buildings to the

A Frenchman's Plan to Hitch Balloons to

a sufficiently powerful storage battery
to drive the machinery have placed linn

style of navigation. However, the "di-

purposes of observation and communi-

He only can help"
Writing from another inland city,
these same English friends say:
Here one looks to the south, from
the cliffs where we are perched; across
great upland plain, well watered by
mountain streams and dotted all over
with villages. Most Of them were Chris
tian villages, and nearly all have been
burned and destroyed. For days be-
fore the massacre and plumber here at
- the missionaries watched the
flames rising from one village after an
other, as the Kurds and Turks drew
nearer and nearer to this doomed city.
"And what is true of this plain is
true of every plain and hillside in this
part of the country. One does not
know where to begin, and even If one
had a millionaire on the relief commit
tee one would hardly know where to
stop.
"Only a short distance from this city
80 women, headed by noble and very
intelligent woman, well known to the
missionaries, threw themselves into the
river to escape dishonor, and more than
one father played the part of Virginius,
and killed his daughter outright.

passed one large building after another

aries or Notifications, very high and
solid, and quite different from those OF
the southern plains), with no sign of
life and all more or less dilapidated.
'It seemed as if we had fallen upon
some recently excavated city of the
past. Of the 100 houses belonging to
this village, the consular report gives
so as having been burned. AS we were
leaving it a poor Christian woman sud-
denly appeared from behind a building,
/ where, no doubt, she had hidden on our
approach, and. seeing lady of the par
ty, rushed up to me and took my ex-
tended hand with gesticulations more
eloquent than words. 1t was sad to
leave her, but delay was not possible
at the time I wonder what her tale
would have been could we have stayed
to listen?

the gloom. 1t is that permission has

A STANDING INVITATION,

Women suffering from any form of fe-
male weakness are invited to promptly
communicate with Mrs. Pinlxham at
Lynn, Mass. All letters IRE received,
opened, read and answered by women
only. A woman can freely talk of her
private illness to a woman; thus has
been established the eternal confidence
between Mrs. Pinkham and the women
of America which has never been
broken. Out of the vast volume of ex-
perience which she has to draw from it
is more than possible that she has
gained the very knowledge that will
help your case. She asks nothing in
return except your good will, and her
advice has relieved thousands. Surely
any woman, rich or poor, is very fool
ish if she does not take advantage Of
this generous offer of assistance.

The next thing the trickster does is

The next thing the trickster does is
to prepare trick salver. All that's re-
1uired is a salver with double bottom
worked bysa button underneath. This
is a very simple device, used by all
magicians, II Is as common in sleight-
of-hand work as trick tumblers or trick
eggs.
With these props" and an intelligent
sergeant the magician is all ready to be
shot at.
When the sergeant places the real
cartridges on the salver and passes
them to the committee and the audience
to examine, the fake cartridges are
already in 1t, concealed in the false bot
tom. OF course it is the real cartridges
that are examined and marked. AS he
walks buck from the audience to the
stage he holds the salver at arms
length, with hand grasping it on each
side to show that he is not touching the
cartridges or trying to change them,
His fingers are under the salver and his
thumbs bent over the edge. With one
of his fingers he gives the button gen
tie touch. Presto! the button changes.
The fake cartridges come on top. tha
real ones go out of sight underneath
He quickly hands out these fake cart
ridges to the men one by one and gives
the command to lead. Before anyone
has had chance to examine them they
are in the guns and safe from prying
eyes.
The sergeant then walks to the wings
to put down the seemingly empty salver
on table just out of sight. Hid be-
hind this table is the magician's as
sistant. AS soon as the salver is put
down he touches the spring and brings
the real cartridges up. With pair of
pincers he rapidly pulls the bullets out
of the shells and drops them into hot
dish. He has time to do all this easily
enough while the soldiers are being
marched down to the platform and
faced about.
Then Herman comes to the wings to
get the plate on which to drop the bull
lets. But before he picks up the plate
he gathers in the bullets, which by this
time have become slightly heated, and
palms them between his fingers or up
his sleeves. Then knowing that the only
bullets on the stage are in his possession
he can face the rifles without fear and
drop the marked leaden balls on the
plate as soon as the volley is fired.

1t is said that the soldiers resent the
innovation on the ground that the ma
chine is a too vivid reminder of the
horrors of war. The inventor claims
that the machine will dispose of the

probable that some of the wounded
might be cremated by mistake. The
invention does not find favor elsewhere

Simple, isn't it? And yet of such ma
terial are marvels made.
The only danger that Herman runs
Is the chance that one of the soldiers
may be a crank and have an extra cart
ridge with him and fire it. In that case
the trick would probably turn out a
tragedy. 1t is on that account that
Herman insists on looking through the
barrels of the guns after the soldiers
march on. AS the men are at "atten-
ton" all the while afterward, there
would be no opportunity for one of
them to surreptiously load his piece.
The loading is done while the soldiers
are in line facing the audience and the
sergeant. Each man holds up the cart
ridge given him, and at the commend,
"load," inserts it in the chamber in
plain sight of all. No time or chance is
allowed for substitution.
