Friday should be the lucky day for

discovery. NAll his plans were made
upon that day, and tae substantial
details of the long voyage were ar
ranged on Friday. lie saw the first
indications Of the new land on Fri

and on Friday, October Z, 1892, he
discovered land. On Friday he
planted the cross on the soil of the

he sent his official announcement of
his return il the month of April.
He entered Barcelona In triumph on
Friday.> On Friday, November 16,

a Soldiers Bible.

A singular incident, which, If we
remember rightly, has had several
parallels in the pasts was told by
Capt. Macfarlane, Twenty-afth Z. o,
S. Borderers, on his return TO Pindi
the other day. The gallant officer,
who is, now suffering from wounds
received during the storrning Of the
Mamlakhan pass, says that while the
borderers were forcing their way
under q storm of shot, a man near
him was hit heavily In the chest and
fell TO the ground. Macfarlane ran
to his assistance, and on opening his
belts, which were half cut away by
the shot, discovered the bullet
buried ia Bible, which the soldier
bad. carried in his bosom, and had
thus saved his life. The man had
been Ill in hospital ct Pindi some
lime before, and enc Of the nursing
sisters had given him the Bible
which, it would seem, Is occasionally
useful in earnal, as well as always
in spiritual, warfare. Westminster

"No, but it's actually Ice water;

And after d inner out they went

asked to look down. Ct was a small,
round, brick shaft, much like the
old wells seen hereabouts, and went
down to an extraordinary depth.
But there was beautiful sight at

clear ice floated in the water, and &

Ice al around the sides for quite

MY DEAR Mr.. BRYAN:-Ir
view of the action of the st, Loui:

frain from giving you my thoughts
on the situation.
"My advices are that you have
been nominated as candidate fol

through press dispatches that yol
are somewhat undecided whether
you ought to accept or decline
Now, | desire to say to you witt
the utmost frankness and good feel

personal consideration for me te
influence you in your action.
81 desire you will do just wha
you believe is best for the success
of the head of our ticket. Th,
principles we are fighting for ar,
so paramount to any personal con
siderations that the latter shoult
not have any weight or influence
whatever with your action.
4 cannot for a moment allow
myself to be a factor 10 any
action on your part that would il

TLey discussed plans Of cam
paign and the situation general-
ly. Butler wanted to get Mr.
Watson's record on sumo points
and the nominee supplied the
missing links.
It was decided that Nj Watson
should go to Texas ard then
West on a stumping tour. He
viii give his assistance 10 the
Texas Populists in the move
ment looking to fusion. MIR.
Watson also wants fusion in
Georgia, on the basis OF di>.
vision Of the electoral vote and
the withdrawal of Mr.. Sewaa so
far as Georgia is concerned,
Speaking ofthe Palmer~Bunk-
ner ticket, Senator Butler said
that it was nleaut Ito catch
suckers who might otherwise
vote for Bryan" The men VINO
arein the Indianapolis -conveh~
ton will uot vote the ticket, but
will cast their ballots for Nc
Ainley. I think that if the press
and the speakers will unmask
the scheme, the ticket will draw
very little support from Bryan, "
Senator Butler left tonight
for Washington. Mr.. Watson
leaves in the. morning for Texas.
It is understood it has been
decided that both Watson and
Bryan snail be notified before
September 18th, by letter or
