BRYAN'S VOTE IN THE SOUTH.

He Received $4,000 More Votes Than
Were Cast for Cleveland.
Some of the newspapers of the east
have been loudly claiming since the re-
cent presidential contest that the nomi-
nation of Mr.. Bryan was great blow to
the democratic party in the south. 1t is
claimed that in comparison with the vote
of 1892 the democratic loss is signally
heavy.
Instead of losing votes in this section,
it is she wn by the returns that 100000
more votes were cast for the democratic
ticket in the last election than in 1892.
The folio wing table gives the exact
figures:

From the foregoing table It will be Oh
served that the democratic party of the
south has lost none of its numerical
strength by reason of the free coinage
plank of the Chicago platform, but, on
the contrary, it's growth has conside
ably increased.

WIDOWS WILES THEIR WOE.
Unique Petition to Governor by Matrimo-
nially Inclined Msidens.

Sixteen of the manageable girls of
Charleston, S. c.. presented the following
petition to the governor of the state in
1888: "The humble petition of all the
maids, whose names are underwritten:
Whereas, we, the humble petitioners,
are at present in very melan ,holy dis
position of mind, considering how all
the bachelors are blindly captivated by
widows and our own youthful chances
thereby neglected, the consequence of
this, our request, is that your excellen-
cy will for the future order that no wild
ow presume to marry any young man
till the maids are provided for; or else
to pay each or them fine to be laid on
all such bachelors as shall be married to
widows The great disadvantage it is
to us maids is that the widows, by their
forward carriage, do snap up the young
men, and have the vanity to think their
merit beyond ours, which is great i'm
position on US, who ought to have the
preference. This is humbly recommend
ed to your excellency's consideration,
and hope you will permit no further in
suite. And we, poor maids, in duty
bound, will ever pray"

When a Tenor Would Not Sing.

Two years of hard work at Drury Lane satisfied Sims Reeves of his sue- cess, aud he went off to the continent, bent on having his voice still better cul- tiyated. First he got all he could from Signor Bordogni in Paris; then he start ed for Milan, where he placed himself under Mazzucato, then director of tho conseryatoire. Here he studied hard and led on the whole joyous life. It was in the days of the Austrian tyranny, of which the English tenor soon had 8 taste. He had secured all engagement at La Scala, the most celebrated opera house ill Italy, and one night he had te intimate his inability to sing, owing to a sore throat. The doctor inspected his larynx and declared that he could sing if he liked. He still refused, and q squad of gendarmes accordingly called at his lodgings with 8 carriage and car ried him off to the theater. However, as the old saying goes you may take a horse to the water, but you cannot make him drink The gendarmes led the tenor to the stage, but that was the extent of their powers. They failed to make him sing. g.-Gentleman $ Magazine.

Modern Norwegian Literature.

Two strong complaints are often heard against Norwegian literature We arc told not only by people of Roman stock, with whom the difference of race may cause some difficulty, but also by people of our own kin-that it is not clear; that 1t is misty. But do people sup pose there are mists in mountain land? Mist comes from the sea and the lakes. Lowlands have mist, but the mountains bar it off and keep the weather clear. In lowlands the imagination is richer in eolors and shadows, and has more daring, though more ncertain-almost adYenturous-conceptions. In mountain lands it is clearer and narrower. The power of the mountaineer' imagina- tion is not its compass, but its intens- ity. His art eharacterizes more strong ly. By characterization do not think of the endless crowd of details, which often are only another kind of mist, but, generally speaking, power to put the figure in the landscape and the land- scape ill the f1gure-which is of decisive importance for the representation both of races and men. In this respect I be- lieye that no other literature at present. surpasses the Norwegian -Bjornstjerne Bjornson i'll Forum.

Sunday afternoon a number of bicycle riders were enjoying a de lightful spin at Jones Park. Among the number was q young son of MT. Isaac Dreyfus and MT George Thomas. Mr. Thomas was riding the magnificent Rambler racer owned by Mr. P M. Kilroy. Young Dreyfus, with two other boys, were riding ahead of Mr. Thomas, on the inside of the track, and Mr. Thomas attempted to pass them going at great speed. Just before he reached the lads, young Dreyfus turned his wheel to the right and Mir. Thomas ran into him, with the result that the wheel rode by him was com pletely demolished. MT. Thomas also sustained severe bruises. Neither young Dreyfus nor his wheel was injured
