AT MONROEYILLE.

MOnroeville, Ind, Aug. 10-Hon. Will
liam Jennings Bryan of Nebraska today
made a grand slide out of the west,
whence he. sprang, towards the heart of
the enemy's country, as he has seen fit
to dominate New York. AS the train
on the Pennsylvania Central, upon which
he Travelled, pulled out of Chicago at
little before midnight demonstrations
were made at South Chicago and the
other suburban stations, large crowds
surrounding the train and attesting
their presence by the use of fireworks
and brass bands. The train had barely
passed the city limits, however, before
Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan retired to their
room in the handsome compartment car.
Again did the Bryan party fail to catch
up with Hon. and Mrs. II. p. Bland, who
left Chicago on an earlier train, intend
ing to join the Bryan party at Alliance.
Early dawn found the train at Columbia
city, but 100 miles out of Chicago. 1t
was but 4:45 a. m, but there were about
fifty people at the depot, and, much to
their satisfaction, Mr.. Bryan came out
before the train started and shook hands
all around He had come out in such
hurry that he had neglected TO put on
his collar. When the train reached
Fort Wayne at 5:20 there were probably
$500 people on the platform, and when
Mr.. Bryan came out he was greeted cor
daily. To request that he speak he
replied somewhat hoarsely that they
must not expect speech from him. As
the train drew out some one shouted:

BIG CROWD AT LIMA.

Lima, o., Aug. 10.-At $50 a. m. the
train arrived on time and found 5000
people waiting at the station to greet
the arrival of the party. There was no
speaking, but the handshaking was en-
thusiastic and continued during the stop
of the party.
Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan seemed to enjoy
the ovation extended to them, as well as
the happy crowd by whom they were
surrounded. After shaking hands for
some time Mr.. Bryan remarked gravely
"Well. this is Ohio" whereat citizen
remarked: ''You bet and Ohio is for
YOU"
MIR. Bryan told the crowd that he was
happy to find so many more silverites
in Ohio than he found on his visit year
ago. The train pulled out after u stop
of seventeen minutes

AT ALLIANCE.

AT ALLIANCE.
Alliance, o., Aug. 10.-Between 1900
and 2OOO people flew around the train
in great confusion until it was finally
discovered by the cheering crowd that
Mr. Bryan bad emerged from the front
end of the coach and penetrated the
throng to the front steps of Il corner
store, where he spoke as folows:
Ladies and Gentlemen-I am glad to
greet so many of you. a public servant
is hired man. He may receive
larger salary than n man who works by
the day and he may be employed for Il
longer time, but after all he is simply
an employe chosen at n fixed salary to
perform certain work. You are the
only ones to be consulted as to who
should be chosen and from that decision
there is no appeal. You are the sover-
eigns, and i'll no other country are the
sovereigns so free to choose as they are
in this country. | am glad to live in
nation like this and / appreciate the
honor which has been conferred upon me
by the late convention. | also appre-
ciate the fact that this honor has been
conferred ut an earlier age than usual.
| beg to assure you that | realize the
great responsibility of that high Office,
but responsibility does not rest upon me
alone; you have your responsibilities as
well rs |. These are times of great inn
portance Upon the decision of the
United States on this great money ques-
tion hinges the greatest Importance.
beg you when you cast your votes to
take into consideration all these ques-
tions. You have no right to cast your
votes with indifference, but it is a duty
You owe to yourselves, your families,
your country and your God to make your
ballot represent your conscience and your
judgment.
81 ask you to do your duty as you see
it and trust your fellow men to stand by
you in the exercise of your right cloud
chccring)
Il thank you for your attention"
AT the close of his remarks he has
tened back to the rear of the coach and
took up his position on the rear of the
steps, where he shook hands until the
train moved ON.

ent financial policy of this country than
any living man in it. loud cheering.)
| beg you, without detracting from his
high honors and his great personal worth,
to consider the financial policy presented
by the democratic platform and decide
for yourselves whether our policy is bet
ter for you and for your own interests
than the policy so ably supported by your
townsman. If we present to you that
which is good, we beg you to accept it.
even though it is opposed by those who
live among YOU. We have people in our
state who believe that Senator Sherman's
policy is the wisest one, but | believe that
the American people will decide that the
United States is strong enough to legis-
late for its own people on the money
question without asking the consent or
aid of any other nation on earth. Cap
plause.)
Il thank you for this vast assemblage
here. and | beg you to realize the duties
which rest upon American citizens
There are some who believe that only in
times of war can people prove their pa
triotism; | was too young to prove my
patriotism in the time of war, but | glory
that a country like this every year pre-
sents n field and every day gives those
who live in the country an opportunity
to prove their devotion to it and in the
campaign upon which we are now enter
ing, which, in my Judgment, is a rcpeti-
ton of the campaign of 17T6, there is an
opportunity to prove whether we will
be patriots" Great applause.)
AS the train slowly moved away from
the station the pressure of the crowd
against the car seemed to threaten death
to many of the excited people, but acci-
dents were averted and men came run
ming several hundred feet to touch the
hand of the smiling orator

just after the steamer Major Reybold
left Arch St., wharf on Thursday after.
noon, she struck the tug L. M. Ora
ham and cut her through amidship.
The Graham was steaming up the river
and the Reybold nearly east along the
Clyde pier and struck her almost at
right angles. The tug ran ashore I'M
der full steam and sank in shallow wa
ter at Pier No. s.
The Reybold returned to Arch ST.
wharf where the passengers and freight
we're landed, after which she left for
Camden to be repaired. The iron stem
of the Reybold vas twisted around and
remained fast for some minutes in the
yellow pine planks of the tug. Some
Of the iron plates Of the Reybold we're
torn off and others bent.
1t is thought the new Clyde pier be-
low hid from the Reynolds view the
tug as she came up the river with the
strong tide. The Reybold blew her
whistle before leaving the wharf.

(From Pacific Health Journal

First, get a wife; second, be patient. You
may have great trials and perplexities in
your business, but do not therefore, carry to
your home a cloudy or contracted brow.
Your wife may have trials, which, though
of less magnitude, may be hard for her to
bear. A kind word, a tender look, will do
wonders in chasing from her brow all clouds
of gloom.-To this we would add always
keep a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy in the house. 1t is the best and is sure
to be needed sooner or later. Your wife
will then know that you really care for her
and wish to protect her health. For sale
at JohnsOn's Drug Store, PENIS Grove.

type and are specially prepared to print
