this city July 22d. That would mean the
surrender and destruction of the peoples
party organization.
II believe that the populist cCpvention
will favor the idea of nominating q can
didate for president and vice PRESIDENT
and then combine the votes of the two
parties on one set of electors. This can
be done without the sacrifice Of principles
or our organization and will also unite
the elements opposed to the gold standard.
Il do not believe that if he peoples
party national convention sfruld ire orse
Mr.. Bryan that the entire vIte Of that
party would go to Bryan at the polls next
November. If the peoples party national
convention should indOrse Mr. Bryan and
Mr. Sewal the leaders could not deliver
more than &c per cent of the lop.ilist vote
throughout the United States. The mem
bers of the peoples party possess a strong
individuality and will not follow their
leaders if they attempt to lead them
against their will. The stay-at-home vote
IN the peoples party would be large
enough to defeat Mr.. Bryan in many OF
the western states.
IF the peoples party should nominate a
candidate for president and vice president,
and then combine on electors. the entire
vote could he pOlled for such electors, and
l believe that the full popuist strength
could be pOlled at the November election
for Bryan. This. in my opinion. is the only
possible way 10 defeat Mckinley at the
polls next November. Since the Chicago
convention l have communicated with the
popuists throughout the United States
and know that the democratic ticket nom
mated at Chicago will not be Endorsed by
our convention next week"

nominee and platform, and is confident

ventiOn.
NO basis OF agreement between the sill

agreed upon" said Mr.. Mott. 1T has been
suggested that the relative strength of the
democratic. popuiist and silver parties in
the states be estimated and the votes in the
electoral college be distributed in proper
ton.
Another plan is TO give the democrats
half clear through the states and divide
the other half between the populists and
silver people. The democrats are striving
for the election of their ticket. BY the
adoption of either of these plans, the
democrats would have everything to gain
and nothing TO lose. and. ] believe. the
success of the democrats assured.
"1n the event that the democrats re-
fuse to make any concessions. l believe
that the silver people Will name separate
electors.

Tiger Didn't Like Her Dress.

at is strange thing" said we'll
known trainer of animal, chow many
outbreaks and accidents have resulted
from a trainer wearing q strange CO.'S
tune. Quite recently lady performer
who had made some alterations in hel
dress had narrow escape. The tiger
with whom she usually appeared turned
sulky from the start, and at last alb
solutely refused to do one of the
tricks.
"Its mistress urged and threatened
to no purpose, and finally attempted
to use the whip. The moment she did
go the infuriated animal flew at her,
and If it had not been for boarh ound,
which was performing with them, she
would probably have lost her life.
"The brave dog snapped at the
tiger and distracted his attention un
til his mistress had succeeded in max.
ing her escape. Unfortunately, he was
severely injured by the tigers claws,
"The reason for this outburst was
that the tiger evidently did not recog-
nize his mistress in her change of cos
tune. AS rule, very few alterations
are made. The same dog always ap.
pears in the Same act, and so on, the
idea of acquaintanceship and familiar
ity being thus maintained. Why, even
ii hat or wrap happens to lie within
reach outside the arena the animal is
sure to see itat once, and, if it can get
at it, will promptly tear it to pieces.
"Ahout a year ago a tion tanner
wore q full dress suit instead of his
usual military costume at one of the
performances. As soon as the lion
saw the change of clothing he made
direct for him. Now, lions do not,
like tigers, try to kill instantly, but
strike out with their paws to knock
their enemy down. In this case the
lions claws caught the trainers face,
inaicting severe injuries. But he is
still in the business, though the scars
of the struggle are very plainly visi-

IdlnsrnorncIes OF Fish.

Another example of the idiosyn-
craoies and cleverness OF fish was dis
cussed last night at the weekly meet
ing Of the Piscatorial Society in the
Holborn Restaurant The leaping
powers of river fish formed the SUBJ
ject of debate, and instances we're
given of the heights which salmon, as
we'll as the meaner kinds, are capable
OF clearing. One gentleman men
toned fish which once, whom IL was
pursued by a voracious pike, leaped
from the water TO the bank, where il
remained for q considerable time
squirting round bush Watching it's
enemy's movements. When IL saw
the pike start away after another vic-
tim it still waited until il imagined
the foe to be considerable distance
of, when it quietly dropped itself into
the river again, and swan in an oppo-
site direction. This concluded the
debate, and without comment the
kettle was handed to the narrator

and they would have an evenings fun
reading them. Safe in their room, the
letters were produced and the parents

The Adopted Hare.

An interesting experiment in the
rearing Of animals is recorded by a
German scientist. A country gentle
man having captured a young hare a
few days ago, conceived the idea of
giving it as foster mother a cat which
had just had litter of kittens. The
cat showed no objection to this curious
addition to her family, and the herb
iyorous nursing seemed to take very
well to the regime to which it was SO
Unexpectedly subjected.
The hare throve and grew, and the
cat soon thought it time to begin the
education of her foster child. For
the catching of mice, however, the
hare showed not the slightest disposi-
tion, and at each fault committed the
adaptive mother administered vigor.
GUS correction with her paws. This
produced but little improvement, and
the relations between the two animals
were becoming somewhat strained,
when one day they were placed to-
gether on the lawn in front of the
house.
The hare at once proceeded to
nibble at the vegetation with remark
able ayidity, to the evident astonish-
ment of the cat, who could make
nothing of such conduct. Finally,
perceiying that she had nourished
anything but a kitten, the disap-
pointed nurse withdrew with an ex-
preston of unmistakable disdain and
refused to touch the hare again. -

TEMPERANCE AND HEALTH.


paragraph in the Government Gazette
OF Australia throws light upon a phase OF
the temperance reform that is well worth
the study OF every true lover of his country
and his race. II occurs in the annual report
of the Assistant Government Statist upon the
Vital Statistics of Greater Melbourne, re-
Gently published. Dealing with the decrease
in The death rate OF the metropolis, which
has been going on during the past few years,
the statist says: "It has also been Influenced
by the beneficial effects on the general
health OF plain living. absence of luxury and
increased sobrlety and temperance, as evil
denced by the arrests for drunkenness (in
the whole colony having fallen of by thirty
per cent. since 1890. and the revenue from
spirituous liquor excepting the newly i'm
posed excise duty on beer) from es54 600 In
1901 to e576, 900 in 1894, or by thirty
three per cent, Notwithstanding an increase
in the rates OF duty" From statistics in
this same report il is further evident that
with the loss Of drink revenue there has
been loss Of sickness and of death.

No Longer a Mihost,, Train.

The "ghost train" no longer runs
over the New York, New Haven and
Hartford road between Boston and
this city. 1t was one of the fastest
and most completely equipped of the
trains in the express service of the
road, It was not known as the "ghost
train" by the railroad authorities, and
it is said that this uncanny name, bo-
slowed upon it by passengers and resi-
dents along the line, had something
to do with its discontinuance.
The exterior of all the cars which
composed the train, from the express
car to the ordinary day coach, were
painted solid dead white. Every
night train of these white cars pulled
into the Grand Central Station al nine
o'clock and at the same hour a similar
train reached the Boston terminus.
To the railway authorities this service
was known as the "New England Ex-
press" but the long unbroken string
of white cars dashing through the
darkness, appearing almost like q
spectre, became known all along the
line as the ''ghost train"
Nothing was thought of this appel
lation at first, though the management
is said to have not particularly relished
it. Sensitive persons, however, OBJ
iected to riding upon the train, and il
was abandoned. The cars were sent
to the shops and painted different
color and are still in use on the road.
The reason for the change, according
to the railroad officials, is that it was
almost impossible to keep the white
cars clean.-New York Herald.
