SURE OF SUCCESS.
Bryan and Manager Jones Have 10
Doubts a. To Result.

Doubts a. TO Result.
NEW YORK, Oct. 24.-To the Her
aid correspondent at Quincy, H., today
Mr.. Bryan said that he was already
as good as elected.
4 do not care TO go into details,
said Mr. Bryan, ''or TO take up the sep
arate States, but my confidence in the
result is increasing. 1 will have a con-
siderable majority in the electoral col
Iege. 1t will not be a close election, in
my opinion"
1Ir. Bryan modified his refusal 10 dis
cuss the separate States to the extent
of placing the solid Pacific States with
the solid South as safe for the Chicago
ticket. He called attention TO the mar
row margin by which the Republicans
were claiming Oregon, while he laugh
ed at the suggestion that there could
be any doubt of the electoral vote Of
California being cast for Bryan and
SewaH
Mr.. Bryan placed his number of cleo
toral votes in the neighborhood of 300.
CHICAGO, Oct 24.-To w. r. Hearst
of the Examiner, San Francisco: The
outlook at the end of the last week
but one of the campaign is more ia
vorable than it has ever been. Reports
from all sections bring the most en-
couraging news. Our friends are filled
with confidence and enthusiasm; they
are full of pluck and fight. l have no
doubt about the success of the Demo-
cratic candidate. The news from Indi-
ana, Michigan and Minnesota is es-
pecially favorable, and the same is true
of Iowa, Ohio, Kentucky and West Vir-
ginia. In every section of the country
the condition has improved within the
past week, and we no longer have any
doubt about the election of Mr.. Bryan
by an overwhelming majority.

where there is a great
demand for the services Of

niture is not sought after to
any great extent. Besides
the trouble caused by the

perature is against anything
that adds to the discomfort
by making the body warmer.
For this reason then, the in
clination of the people is to-
ward cool furniture.

Has Made His Last speech and Will
Await Results.
ATLANTA, Oct. 25.-Mr. Thomas E
Watson passed through here last night
on his way to his home at Thomson
Ga. He was asked what he thought OF
the failure of his party in the State to
effect fusion.
Il have nothing to say" he replied
in hoarse voice. Please do not ask
me anything. l am on my way to the
train and must ask you to excuse me. y
Mr.. Watson rushed on. He boarded
the Georgia train and left for home.
The campaign of Mr.. Watson has come
to an end. He will make no more
speeches, and the only utterances COM
ing from him will be letters of accept
ance.
Mr.. Reed of the National Committee
has a copy of the letter of acceptance.
He was on the point of giving it out
Friday, but further consideration made
it advisable for him to hold it while
longer. Unless the missing letter turns
up copy may be made public in a day
or two.
Mr.. Reed was asked if he thought
the letter of Watson very virulent.
ct might be called warm, he said
with a smile.
Since the withdrawal of the Popu-
list electors the report has once more
been circulated that Watson will re-
tire. Speaking for Mr.. Watson, Mr..
Reed gave this report an emphatic de-
NAL.

COMMON BUT NECESSARY.

No women likes to think what she would do without pins. They have been in use from the remotest periods of the world In the book of Exodus in the Bi- ple pins of brass are spoken of, and later they were made of bone, ivory, wood or bronze. From specimens found 1t is seen that none of these varieties was as slen- der or perfect as our pins nowadays.
 There is no certainty as to the date when pins were first manufactured in bulk. but in 1464 there was complaint in England that certain clockmakers had compelled their employees to take their pay in pins, girdles and other unprofta- ble wares instead of money" and in the early part of the reign of Richard III. a large number of artifcers joined in the compallnt that articles, the making of which had formerly gained them liveli- hood, were brought from across the sea, such as "girdlers, pointmakers, pins and other things.
 In consequence of this complaint the importing of pins and about forty other like articles was prohibited. At that time pins were of bOxwood bone or silver As time went on many improvements were made, till by the middle of the sixteenth gentry they were made of metal, usually brass. Then they became so important that statutes were enacted in regard to their manufacture.
 Up to th.s time women fastened their gowns with ribbons, lace, clasps, hooks and eyes and skewers of brass, silver and goId," these latter being pins without heads. Pins were then somewhat orna- mental, as we see from reading an &C., count of a gown of a lady of the sixteenth century: "A fair train-gown stuck full of silver pins"

WAGES IN MEXICO,

Houston Crex1 Post.
 So much has been said about wages in Mexico, and so much of what has been said was inaccurate that Q cursory glance at. the labor situation there may not be without profit in this investigation The following is a statement of wages paid to certain classes of labor in the southern republic, which we quote from recent issue of the Mexican Herald:
 Locomotive engineers, from Sl50 to $25O per month.
 Locomotive firemen, from $75 to $1Oo per months
 Passenger conductors, S160 per month.
 Freight conductors, from $125 to $2O0 per month.
 Freight hrakemen, from SS5 to $75 per month.
 Telegraph operators, from $50 to $15O per month.
 Switehmens S1.5O per day.
 Shop machinists, from $3.50 to $5 per day.
 . Carpenters, from $3.5O to $4.75 per day
 Blacksmiths, from S350 to $4.50 per day.
 Boilermakers from $4 to sS per day.
 Station agents from $60 to $200.
 Division superintendents, $350 per month.
 Trainmasters, s175 per month.
 Stationary engineers, in mines or em-
 ployed on large plantations, from $2.50 to
 $3.50 per day. with expenses, and from
 $3.50 to $5 per day, without expenses. It is usual for gold advocates, for pur- poses of comparison with wages in this country, to divide the Mexican scale by two, on account of the premium in Mexico on American exchange, but such a meth cd is unfair and produces a result wholly illuSory. Nobody urges with more ve- remenence than the gold men the doc- urine that the value of a dollar is evil denced by it's purchasing power. It is undenied and undenable that the MeXi- can dollar buys as much in Mexico of Mexican products as the American dollar
 will buy in the United States of our pro- ducts. Therefore all that the working
 man has to consider in this comparison is the margin of saving, above the cost of living, permitted by each scale With expert labor, that is much greater in Mexico than in this country, as the fig ures we have quoted will show. Goldbug orators are in the habit of comparing the wages paid to indoleni "greaSers'' for farm or ranch work in Mexico with the wages of our own skilled labor. That is where the '30 cents day. bugbear comes from. Turning to the true comparison in this case, we find that in the Central and Mississippi Valley states farm laborers have been working l for $9 to SIP a month for fifteen years and the effectiveness of the man who gets SIP q month here is more than double that of the Mexican "greaser." The latter when employed on the hacienda is allotted a. plot of land for his own pur- poses, which he holds ren free. The working man who will study the general condition of laborers in the United States and take cognzance of the l many thousands who are without the as- surance of food and shelter for them | selves and families during the coming l winter will not find any reason in the l situation why he should be friendly to the gold standard On the contrary, he can not fail to perceive that.it is labors most dangerous foe.

rE1NKs HIS MACHINE WILL FLY.
MT. Curtis of Boston Has Designed From.
 ising One.


 New York World.
 F. G. Curtis. for two years aeronautical editor of the Cosmo- politan, now of Boston, thinks he has solved the problem of aerial navigation by the construction of a flying machine on a really novel principle. His model fiutters about ikea thing of life, and he sees no reason to suppose that the full sized apparatus, upon which he is now at work, should not do equally as well.
 He did not attach much importance to the experiments of Lilienthal, Means and others with aeroplanes and wings. He believed that the solution of dirigible air navigat tion was to be sought in a flying rather than in a soaring machine. He stuck to the parachute principle. He tried flat cards arranged in helix on a rod. Tossed into the air. the toy went up al- most as easily as 1t came down.
 The complete man flight machine is now something like this: The top part consists of a helix made up of seven com plete circles. This helix turns inside a frame of split bamboo and the fine silk or wire on bamboo or aluminium center rod. Depending from the frame is bicy- cle arrangement. It has seat and pedals, and handble bars that serve as @ tilier. Everything is to be as light as possible-bamboo when possible alumni mum when necessary. There will not be an ounce of steel or iron. Even the gear, which Is high bevel gear. is not of steel. but of fiber lighter than aluminium and almost as tough as steel Behind is the rudder, but before is the screw-a large one-which will pull instead of push the machine. The advantage of this Is that the screw will not have broken air, but fresh air, to work through.
 The whole machine will weigh less than sixty pounds and have 1000 square feet of surface.

MUST MIX DRUGS BY LAW
No One But a Licensed Nan Can
Compound Them.
So The Association of Registered
Clerks Are After Number OF
Gili-Sign Pharmacists.

Unlicensed drug clerks shall not com.
pound prescriptions. so reads the law; so
says the police department. The law is
being violated, ard arrests Will probably
be made today.
The Information was filed with the chief
Of police last week, evidence has been Sc
cured and an agitation in the drug trade
is at hand. 1t is stated on authority OF the
police that the number OF drug clerks COM
pounding prescriptions without license ap-
oroximates fifty and that the number of the
employers OF these clerks approximates
thirty.
The department refused to divulge the
names OF the men on whom the hand of
the law will fall. The department init.
mated, though, that the violators Of the
law are not exclusively humble druggists,
out that some rich pha rmacsts with gilt
signs, giarng lights and sizzling soda
.ounts will come in for their share of pros
ecution.
The penalty upon conviction is fine,
ranging from S25 to $500.
The last prosecutions under this law
were conducted two years ago and re-
suited in seven convictions. If the pro-
phecy of the police department be Just
the prospective prosecutions will result
a much higher number of convictions
Complaint was made three weeks ago
by a committee of registered drug clerks
to the board of examiners in pharma cy with
the result stated.
