DIR. JEKYLL AND MIR. HYDE.
The Subject of a Grand Lecture by Dr. Nonrse at the Insti-
 tute Last Night.

Dr. Nourse, the dramatic orator. was the attraction on the lecture course at Merrill Institute last night.
 Df. Nourse came to Pine Bluff a stranger, but by his able and enter taining lecture last night he has won piacein the heads and hearts of our citizens which will insure him im- mense audiences in the future should he again visit Pine Bluff. His sub ject was the famous story and char acterizations of Robert Louis Stew enson's tDr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. ;
 The lecturer entered at once with out preliminary or introductory re marks upon his theme. He began by reciting the famous and familiar story of "Dr. Jekyll and MT. Hydes and then at once began to apply it. He declared his helief in the story as an inspired parable. There were lots of Dr. Jekylls with the hide off in every community. He referred to the number of business men, ner- chants and others who are Dr. elk ylls on the streets and on Sunday, but who become Mir. Hydes as soon as they enter their places of business, counting houses or go to market. The well known habit of merchants and others of taking in the sights of a city and seeing the elephant" when they go abroad or to the mar kets was also hnmorously touched upon. As in Dr. "Jekyll and Mir. Hyde" so in real life is the Dr. Jekyll the moral and upright life-one of beauty and loveliness, while the Mr. Hyde-the lower life of inebrity, wick edness and erime-one which debases the physical appearance of our race nntil such creatures resemble the hideous appearance of the lower an- imals.
 Man possesses two lives-each ra- dially different from the other. The one the noble, lofty and philanthro- pic impulses of Dr. Jekyll and the other the knavish and mnrderous in stincts of Mr Hyde. Every man is a Dr. Jekyll and a MT. Hyde, declared the lecturer, in whom there is a con- stant fight between St. George and the dragon.
 Science has demonstrated, the speaker went on to say, that every man has two brains, each with a separate function. There was a natural and spiritual body in every human being which was the basis oi a profound philosophy. There were ten thousand women with two faces he declared, and then went on to l illustrate the point by mention oi much of the duplicity which is en- acted among the fair sex in social life. He declared that he had once seen a woman who had two heads two faces. two mouths and two voices. She could carry on two sep. arate conversations at the same time an entirely different character. and could sing the highest soprano with one voice and the deepest contralto with the other. His humorous rep resentations of the lady receiving a social visitor and her remarks after the visitor departed, brought down the house.
 The speaker then alluded to the number of Dr. Jekylls in appearance who were Mir. Hydes in secret Among these were opium eaters the whiskey drinkers and the morphine fiends. The importation of opium into the United States, he said, had grown from $2,000, ,000 to $17 100000 annually, and the sale oi

SILVER AGITATION WANING.
Farmers Beginning to Look to the
Tariff Issue.

CHICAGO, Aug. 24.-The Republican
headquarters were visited to-day by
many party workers and delegates en-
route to the convention of League Clubs
to be held at Milwaukee, beginning to-
morrow. Among them were George
Steele, National Committeeman from
Oregon; Judge Bigelow of Nevada and
Colonel George Stone of San Francisco,
President of the Union League Clubs of
California
The latter said that silver is no longer
the bugaboo it was three weeks ago, and
that the farmers are beginning to look
to the tariff issue in the campaign. They
see in the money agitation an element
of uncertainty that is bound to have a
disastrous effect on business, without
promising anything like immediate re-
lief. The Colonel says the contest in
California will be close, but believes the
State will go for Mckinley.
Judge w. S. Kenworthy of Iowa has
been assigned to speak IL Michigan
from August 25th to September I'd. The
Judge recently returned fror, Indiana,
where he reports he found unbounded
enthusiasm for the Republican NOM
inees.
United States Senator Warren of WV
oming, and John T. Mallillien, Secretary
of the Nebraska State Central Commit
tee, were also callers at headquarters.

BIMETALLIC UNION.
Address Issued by National President
Warner.

CHICAGO, Aug. 24.-President War

States" He reviews the situation from
a point of view favorable to free coin
age, and says the question should be

This cannot be done" says the ad-
dress, through the medium of ordinary
daily newspapers, for as a rule they are
filled with catch phrases and appeals to
special interests that are simply In
tended to prejudice and mislead By
far the best method of diffusing educa-
ton upon this subject is through the
medium of clubs and leagues or unions.
Such organizations bring the voters to-
gether in compact bodies, and enable
them to collectively obtain at nominal
rates the very best literature extant.
This in turn leads to discussions, not
only by speakers from the platform,
but between individuals. AS a result,
the chaff is separated from the solid
grain, and the essential and material
matter is sifted out of great mass that
really does not touch the essence of the
question at all. The great contest is
now on, and it can only be settled at the
polls That in the end the decision may
be right, the American Bimetallic
Union strongly urges the formation of
silver clubs and leagues in every state,

Adverse Circumstances.

expect a feller ter do jes ez good one
time ez he does another
EFF ye'd stop an think 1t over, We
could see in a minute what the matter
is. In Chicago he had a room at ho-
tel, an was rested up an feelin' first
rate. A man that could make a speech
at all is purity li'ble ter make it good
under them conditions. But when he's
traVelin' in a railroad train, mebbe hev-
in a woman with a poll parrot occu-
pyin' the seat behind him and a small
boy that wants the window open in
front [ tell ye, it's different. Think of
a feller with his system loaded up with
sandwiches an copper-distilled coffee
goin' out ter address the multitude, an
not KNOWN what minute the conduc-
tors goin' ter git in a hurry an start

part. In my opinion, man thet 'ud lay

IDIOTIC CLAMOR.
Ell Dorado Republican: Such news
papers as the San Francisco Exam
iner,'' which sold itself to the Southern
Pacific under a pension not long ago
and then abused the corporation for
stopping its pay, are now stirring up a
senseless bitterness against bankers,
manufacturers and rich men generally
under the assumption that all the vir-
tue and honesty of the country resides
with the poor man and all the deviltry
and deception with the rich. That doc
trne is rank idiocy. A man is neither
good nor bad for being rich and neither
bad nor good for being poor. If a man
had to be a slave and choose a master
from the ranks of society, he would find
just as many tyrants among the poor as
he would in the higher stations The
average section boss on Huntington's
railroad is a meaner tyrant over the
men under him than the high officials
of the road If any good is to come out
of this campaign people must drop pre-
judice and talk sense.

VOICE OF TEE PRESS.
Expressions Of Coast Newspapers in
Brief
On All Shades of Political Belief and
Upon Leading Topics of
the Day.

Alameda Argus: The betting in New
York is 2l2 to l on Mckinley. Betting
is wrong and wicked, yet those who in
dulge in it as a business are wonderfully
shrewd men, and size up q situation
much more accurately than the casual
observer because they study it. We have
thought right along that the Republican
situation would improve as the cam
paign progressed, and this to us is evil
dence of no inconsiderable value that it
is improving.
AGAINST PROTECTION.
Santa Rosa Democrat: 1t is difficult
to understand how a consistent Demo-
crat can vote for Mckinley. He repre-
sents all that is detestable to the Demo-
cratic party. He is a protectionist and
the Democratic party is opposed to pro-
lection, not because this is a Republi-
can policy, but because it is alike the
guaranty and conservator of class leg
islation, opposed to the interest of the
people, and a swindle.
WHERE HE STANDS.
Los Angeles Times: An idea of what
the people have to expect of Mr.. Bryan,
the Democratic candidate for President,
in case he should be elected, may be OBJ
tained from his career in Congress,
which has been his only appearance in
public office While there he made a
great reputation as an orator, which is
about all that can be said of him. He
was always a pronounced free trader.
His leading speech on the tariff ques-
ton was on March is, 1892. In his
speech he advocated the placing on the
free list Of all manufactured machinery.
Californians will be interested TO learn
that he IS altogether opposed to the
sugar bounty. In the speech referred
to he was asked, Are you to be under
stood to be opposed to a State or ma
tional protection to be extended to the
beet sugar Industry" To which Mr..
Bryan replied. q am. most assuredly." "
The voters of California who appreciate
the immense benefit which the introduce
tion of the beet sugar industry in Cali
ornia would be to the State, win doubt
less take this matter into account when
they cast their votes in November.
