Mr.. Bryan said:

Daily Argus, last Friday, 18th.

When the beautiful sunlight
burst forth from over the East
ern horizon this morning, leaps
ing from village to town and from
town to city it found the people
|of Eastern North Carolina all
astir and a great many vending
their way to this city; some on
private conveyances and
great many more on excursion
trains from every direction. In
the meantime there was an ele-
CANT Pullman palace sleeper
standing on a side track near
the banks of neuse river in which
was quietly sleeping the great
Bryan of Nebraska, Worn out
from the fatigue of making eigh.
teen speech the previous. day
The great orator had chosen this
spot from the noise and hustle of
the city to spend the night.
Before the hazy September sun
had climbed far up the eastern
skies long excursion trains heavy
burdened with human freight had
dumped their loads in our midst
and our principal streets were
made impossible for vehicles and
it was with much difficulty that
pedestrians made their way to
and fro.
Promptly at 9 o'clock the
speial Car of MIR. Bryan was
brought to stand, in front of
the Hotel Kennon, and that gen~
tleman with his retinue was
escorted by the several commit.
tees and the Goldaboro Rifles to
the gaily decorated speakers
stand. erected on the principal
square in town. from which he
spoke to the assembled multitude
for one hour.
During the speaking all the
principal business houses were
closed and the gay stream
ers and numerous flags that we're
waited to the breeze gave the
city a genuine holiday appear
ance. A broad sea of eager
faces watched every gesture of
the eloquent orator.
After the speaking was over
Mr.. Bryan was escorted to q
room in the Hotel Kennon, where
he took a short rest before the
departure Of his tram tor Wilson.
While he was being escorted to
the Hotel the crowd thronged
near him eager to grasp his
hand. Those that could not come
near enoughto snake his hand put
forth their fingers and touched
the hem of his garment" and
forthwith the virtue of the silver
advocate transformed all gold
bugs to silver-winged butter-
flies.
Just before the time for his
departure Mr.. Bryan came out
of his room and was met in tho
lobby of the Hotel by a beyy of
beautiful young ladies who
crowded around him and eagerly
grasped his hand and smiled
sweetlv. The great statesman
stopped two or three times to
kiss some importuning small
girls.
WhileMr. Bryan was waiting for
his train brass band from Newa
hern regaled the vast assembly
with several selections that were
cheered to the echo.
After he had gotten on the
rear end of the train the crowd
pressed closer and closer. all
eager to touch even the ends of
his fingers.
No man in any land or country
could receive a greater ovation
than that accorded the Hon. VIM.

who had the opportunity of

HIS GRACE'S SUSPENDERS

years of the Duke of Wellington's life, il
was next to impossible to coax or wheedle
his autograph out of him. All the strata

ters failed; he either did not answer them
at all, or directed his private secretary tc
do go and thus the famous signature OF
''Welling,o became rarity highly
priced by collectors.
Apropos of this, Answers tells of Lon
don lady who had ali album garnislied with
the autographs of most OF the great men OF
the day, but wanted that of the Great
Captain She mentioned her distress to
friend, a certain Mr.. H., and few days
after he, to her great surprise and pleas

the victor of Waterloo. tlan thus:
"Field Marshal Duke of Wellington
never ordered pair of braces of Messrs.
Simkin. If f. M. duke of Wellington had
ordered the articles he could not forget il.
f. NJ. duke of Wellington always pays for
his braces"
This was very odd document for q
lady's album, but its authenticity was un-
doubled, and it therefore found the best
place i'll the interesting collection. The
way in which this singular note was
ELECTED was this:
Mr.. II. filled up one of the bankruptcy
court forms and signed it, informing the
duke that in winding MO the affairs OF
Messrs. Siinpkins, he (the assigneel found
on their hooks the slim of Gs i'd due by his

simply that your stomach is tired. II

Why not give your stomach ride
that is, let something else do its work.
Foods can be digested outside of the

digestive principles and is a prepare
tion designed TO rest the stomach.
The Shakers themselves have such un-
