BRYAN'S DAY

was speaking the crowd was silent OIL
responsive as he wished. His power
over an audience is unmatched by any
one at the present time. Blaine and
Henry Ward Beecher had the same per-
sonal following and the same magnetic
control If an audience but they died and
the scarcity Of good speakers seems to
chow that the warning was effectual.
The insects were all goldbugs, at
tracted by the electric lights and the
people they would have broken
up anything but popocrat
meeting. They covered the bunt-
ing back of the speaker 80 that
the red and white stripes were q solid
brown. They filed up the electric
globes to the depth Of several inches,
and the light was thrown out instead Of
down and the audience and speakers
were in seu.i darkness. The men on
the platform covered their heads and
necks with newspapers and handker
chiefa and the bugs buzzed on. 1t was
after twelve before the speakers were
willing to let the people escape. On
th,ir way home the democrats and
populists said it was grand meeting
and a presage Of coming victory. The
republicans said it was a very small
turnout, and was remarkable for the
absence Of representative people.

daeg for Bryan and Tyw is the god o.
war-the young. fair Scandinavian god
that the Vikings carved on the prov Of
their boats, when they sailed out to
possess the land. Mr.. Bryan excites an
enthusiasm, personal devotion that is
hard matter to explain and oppose
He has a way OF picking out his friends
in the crowds that line the streets OF
his rogress and OF giving to each one a
friendly bow in a way that steadies a
wavering allegiance. He believes he
has his quarrel just and ne believes in
himself. A charlatan or demagogue
believes in neither himself nor his cause
and he is able to fool some OF the people
for only little while. Those who sur
round him the closest confess privately
to ,ntimates that their patron is fraud
and that they serve him only because
they are paid for it.
The small circle OF newspaper men
who surround Bryan constantly are de-
voted personal friends though most Of
chem are republicans and will vote for
Mckinley. They are paid for adverse
criticism but criticism stops at the edge
of the platform he stands upon. His
personal character Is unassailable and
those who know him best admit it.
The following taken from The Chicago
Record" describes Bryan's day: The
continuous welcome which the people
OF Lincoln and large contingents from
other parts of Nebraska gave William j.
Bryan on his home coming today culmi
mated this evening in grand demon
stration in honor Of his formal notifica-
ton Of his nomination for the presidency
OF the national silver party. From the
time Mr.. Bryan reached this city at II
o'clock in the morning. until the tired
crowds retired from the streets at late
hour tonight, there was paradiDg
through the streets Of the capital city
by local and visiting campaign clubs,
nearly all with brass bands in front.
There was an escort procession from the
Burlington depot; another that accom-
panied Mr.. Bryan to his residence;
mass meeting in the state house grounds
in the afternoon. and the third and
greatest preceding the notification cere
monies. Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan, George
A. Groot, chairman Of the notification
committee, and Norris Humphrey OF
Lincoln rode together in the midst OF
the night parade. Men in white duck
uniforms, carrying fiambeaus. formed
picturesque part Of the parade. Nearly,
il not quite, 1000 mounted men were in
line, and these, with the silver capped
organizations devoted to the free-coin-
age cause, fired off sky-rockets and
roman candles as they proceeded. With
the arrival of the torchlight procession
the crowd gathered about the capitol
was increased ten-fold. 1t seemed many
times larger than the audience Of 5000
that listened to Mr.. Bryan in the after
noon.
Norris Humphrey presided at the
meeting and introduced George A.
Groot of Ohio, chairman of the notifica-
ton committee who formally notified
Mr.. Bryan OF his nomination by the
National silver party for president"
The parade was beautiful sight as il
turned up Fifteenth street from o. The
spectacular effect OF one thousand men
with torches and cheering as they
marched elected admiration from the
crowds who watched it from the capitol
grounds.

from Palms. III forget thee. O. jerusalem let
my right hand forget her cunning" The preacher
divided his topic into three heads: First the coun-
try is worth saving; tcond. 1t needs saving; and
third we can save 1t. The Rev. DR.. Duhield wished
TO impress upon his hearers the relation which the
home missionary cause had 10 the United States.
lie believed that person would say that
resources was not worth saving. There are many
reasons why II needs saving. II must be saved
from political and social dangers. II must be saved
from men who gain power and Cypress the poor.
There Is need OF the country being saved from
religious despotisms he said In the opinion OF the
preacher the earnest Christian must not forget
Jerusalem which means that our country and its
spiritual and moral welfare must De remembered.
He said further.
"New-York Is great city. Its influence is felt
throughout the breadth OF the land. New-Yotk has
an immense responsibility Her example Is potent

not be tied by lack Of pecuniary means. The mis-

work requires many hands and willing hearts. The

OF the Mission Board Is worthy of hearty support.
