DREW HIM IN TRIUMPH.
One Hundred and Twenty Men and Women Grasp the Ropes Attached to Mr.
 Bryan'S Carriage at Sioux Falls.

Sioux Falls, S. D., Oct. 9.-One hundred and twenty men and women drew Will liam J. Bryan through the muddy streets here today and thousands of people from nearby points in South Dakota, lava and Minnesota turned out in the cold au- tumn rain to do him honor. MT. Bryan never had reception more heartily en- thusiastic. When he reached Sioux Falls at o'clock he was placed In an open carriage and the wildly demonstratiVe male and female residents grasped the attached ropes and pulled him along to the house of c. F. JeWett, where he had luncheon, an elaborate procession ac- companying him and eighty veterans of the war acting as a personal escort. A feature of the parade was 6 big wagon filled with girls dressed in white frocks who are doing missionary work for the democratic candidate by tabooing young men who believe in a gold standard They bore a banner inscribed "No gold bug need apply" Then there were sixty men on horseback and a calvacade of an- other sixteen mounted on white animals and one on a roan, typifyng the ratio de- manded by the silver men. The schools of the city were closed and near MT Jew ettS residence the pupils were drawn up in lines through which the candidate passed. I he youngsters had small flags and waved them vigorously. The rain had become a steady downpour when MT. Bryan reached "The Oval" a bicycle track near the city where the speech making took place. Despite the drench- ing they got the crowd of 0,000, including 2000 Nebraskans, who came on an excur- sion train, shouted the heartest enthus- iasm. MT. Bryan was presented by John A. Bowler, chairman of the state central committee. The candidate spoke only eighteen minutes, devoting his remarks principally to defending Senator Petit grew, who sat on the platform, from the charge of disloyalty in leaving the repub- lican party with Senator Teller at St. Louis.
