TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Oct. 22.-Candi-
date Bryan closed his campaign in Indiana
here tonight. There was "a big demonstra-
ton In his honor, but it was not local. Del
egations from surrounding counties came
I'm by scores and the plug hated brigade
from indianapolis swelled the throng. There
was quite a string Of Popocrats from the
capital city and they called themselves the
'Cleveland'' and Gray clubs. They didn't
carry Cleveland's picture, however. A
sound-money Democrat from indianapolis
who watched the two clubs march through
the streets here said that half the men
In line were not members of either organ
ization and that it was evident plug hats
had been distributed free to whoever would
wear them.
Mr.. Bryan looked haggard and worn
when he reached here. His temper seemed
out of joint and he didn't act like a man
who had victory within his grasp. The
truth Is, he has not profited by his two
days tour of Indiana. Instead of finding
thousands of people anxious to embrace his
faith he found thousands OF Republicans
who refused to be impressed with his wild
statements and who resented his attacks
on General Harrison and other leaders of
the sound-money cause. Big crowds have

were largely composed of wearers of yell
low badges, who shouted for Mckinley, but
accorded Mr.. Bryan q quiet hearing.
One feature of the Bryan tour merits at
%tentioh, and that Is the manner in which
tribute was levied on the towns In which
he spoke. No speeches were made unless
the Popocrats put up from S25 to $500, ac-
cording to the size of the place and length
Or stay. AT Anderson, for instance, the tax
was $500 for a half hours speech, but Mr..
Bryan spoke only ten minutes, and he
therefore "wolfed" the Popocrats out of
S3S3.33. He is also said to have received
$3.50 for a ten-minute speech at Cfawfords-
vile. $3.50 from Ladoga Popocrats and $50
from the village of Linden. Other places
also report not having received their
moneys worth. From $50 to $25 a minute.

DIR. Tanner Pcrisnes.

AKRON, O., Oct. 22.-The second victim
of the fire which destroyed the large pot
terry plant of the Whitmore Robinson Com
pany here early Wednesday morning is now
known to be Doctor Tanner. whose right
name was Francis Harrison. whose name
was made famous by IA long fast in which
he once INDUCED. The body has not yet
been found, but is supposed to lie under
a great heap of fallen bricks and stone.
The ruins are still SO hot that the work
men are unable TO make much Roadway
is probably nothing but a charred and
shapeless mass. Tanner was a strange
character. Several years ago he sold his
wife to Adam Hide, a German, for $40 and
an old ewing machine. Another effort will
be made to get at the remains tomorrow.

DISASTROUS FIRE.
One Life Lost and Worth
Burned.

NEW YORK, Oct PA disastrous fire
occurred in Brooklyn tonight which re-
suited in the loss of one life. the injury of
several persons and the destruction of prop
erty amounting to about $3.50. 600. The five
story brick factory building situated on
Seventh street, between Second and Third
venues, was destroyed. The building had
a frontage of 200 feet and extended back
$50 feet, with a three-story frame extension
adjoining. The first and second floors CT the
building were occupied by o. Z. a. Weissner,
manufacturer of iron and spring bedsteads;
the third floor by J. Krym & Wauthers
Bros, diamond settlers. and the fourth
floor by the Eta knitting mills, a manu-
factory Of ladies' underwear.
A large quantity of paints and oils and
other infiammable material was stored in
the building, and it is believed the fire orig
mated in this section. In a very few min
utes the entire structure was ablaze. 1t
was shortly after the fire began that Alfred
Beaumon, q fireman, attached to engine

they were caught in a back dratght. Blk

81 am certain, therefore. that a more
constant and active participation in poIiti-
cal affairs on the part of our men of edu-
cation would be of the greatest possible
value to our country. 1T is exceedingly un-
fortunate that politics should be regarded
in any quarter as an unclean thing. to be
avoided by those claiming to be educated
or respectable. 1t would be strange indeed
if anything related to the administration of
our government or the welfare of our Ma
ton should be essentially degrading. be-
lieve it is not a superstitious sentiment that
leads to the conviction chat God has
watched over our national life from IT'S he
ginning. who will say that the things
worthy Of Gods regard and fostering care
are unworthy of the touch of the wisest
and best of men?
Il would have those sent out by our
universities and colleges not only the coun-
selors of their fellow-countrymen. but the
