While Mr.. Bryan Is trying to array
the debtor class against the creditor
class, he should pause to explain TO his
unthInIIIng hearers that the creditors
In this country arc not u handful Of

people" and that there are more than
10000, 900 OF them. They comprise every
man and woman who IL n %dcpOsitor in a

REPUBLICAN WOMEN.


tionnl Association.
F., CHICAGO, Sept. THE following
circular has been Issued by the Wo-
mems Republican Association:
TO REPUBLICAN WOMEN:-The
honorable recognition given to women
by the National Republican Committee
should be acknowledged by them In
embracing the present opportunity to
serve the Republican party and the
country.
Never were there more powerful and
obvious motives for persistent and uni
ted effort among women than now.
Morality and unity, the indispensable
supports of the Home and the Nation,
are being assailed.
Where Is security for the future hon
esty OF our sons II they are now taught
the lessons of reputation?
Where Is security for our national
union that cost US suffering and blood,
II partisan misrepresentation and In
trigue ALLEVIATE the south and west from
north and east?
In the name OF good faith and hon
csty, OF union and prosperity, we urge
women everywhere to help maintain
the nations honor and unity. This can
be done most effectively by united eff
fort In forming woman's Republican
clubs. or Mckinley and Hobart clubs
or sound money clubs, where women
can meet and discuss the great issues
OF the campaign and cur consult as to
plans and methods OF influencing vot-
ers.

In Kentucky Mr.. Buckner, Is very
popular and has great influence with
the masses of the people, In Tennessee

All this talk of the Bryan1tes about
the sound money people advocating the
dominion of European influences over
our affairs Is the mercst rot. The Rs-
publican party IL not proposing to close
up American mills and throw American
workingmen out Of employment by ad-
mitt!ng free the products OF foreign
mills and factories and foreign labor,
any more than it Is proposing TO open
u minis for the free coinage OF the
silver OF the world.
The Popncrats, however. have very
suddenly become intensely patriotic"
In their attitude regarding foreign in
flncnce. Four years ago every man of
them, including Mr.. Bryan, was howl
ing about the markets OF the world"
and preaching that we couldn't get
along without them. In order to gain
them we must throw open Il gates TO
the importation OF cheap products that
came in direct competition with the
products. of nur own labor.
Now. when the Republican purity ad-
vocatcS n money standard that is good
the world over, In order that we may
hold our own with other great CONNER
cIal nations, these same demagogues
are talking about European influences
and appealing for votes with that cry.
1t Is the shout of the demagogue and,
since the American people are not ig-
norant fools. 1t will not be effective.

THIEVES VEHICLES.
Cabs with raise Numbers One of the
Traps In London.

Traps In London.
Is the report true about there being
in London boRus cabs with false num-
bers, and so on? asked a frequent con-
tributor of one of che best-llnown de-
tective inspectors of Scotland Yard.
1t is quite true, and is done far often
er than the public ever supposes, SO
that following cab clew where clever
professional thieves are concerned is
often hopeless. An inconspicuous pri-
vate hanson is used, and both cab and
drivers number displayed are false.
Often enough we receive the most
positive instructions, en- the faith of
notes made by hotel porters and shop
COMMISSIONERS, that certain man
left in a cab of given number. We
seek out that cab, and find beyond a
doubt that the cab was never out at
the time i'll question, and we have a
regular list now of numbers which
we positively know have been counter
feited. In one case where swell shop
litter had driven round from one jew
eler's to another, no fewer than nine
distinct badges and numbers were used
in one day.
Four-wheelers are regularly and con-
stantly used by thieves-the same sys-
tenn of false numbers being one of the
precautions used-for such vehicle
is fine one for conveying stolen goods
that are too heavy. Only recently
we had information of four-wheeler
which is got up to look exactly like
the vehicle used by commercial travel
ers, as they call from place to place.
1t drove up close behind the vehicle of
a jewelers. traveller and stopped at
the same bridesmaids door, a very
smart traveller alighting and entering
a shop near
The driver of the bogus vehicle tried
to get into conversation with the driver
of the real one, pretending that there
was something wrong with the horse
of the latter. The genuine driver got
down and examined his horse, never
doubling the eharacterof the other con-
veyanee when, happening to glance up,
he saw the swell traveller enter vehicle

made hasty excuse, pleading that he
had mistaken the cabs-but we know
that he has made the same mistake
several times, and successfully on two
occasions.
Smart traps are generally the con-
veyances used by burglars, and the
generality of thieves other than swell
ones. 1t is most difficult to trace these
which generally belong to some reg
ular member of the gang-because the
name on them is blacked out and
another painted on, in whitewash let
ters, or several different pickings out
in paint are done at quiet stages of the
journey, and the markings OF the horse
or pony are changed by means of white
and other washes. You would be sur
prised how often and how easily this
is done, especially at night.
Perambulators are amazingly useful
vehicles to thieves, such as housebrealS-
ers, burglars, and so on, and the ap-
parently innocent laundress, seen first
thing in the morning taking a "pram"
full of clothes has often enough been
to fetch some ''swag" or other.-Lon-

WOMENS WASTED INFLUENCE.
A Heroic Reason Why They Are Clubbing
Themselves to Death.

Themselves to Death.
/ wish the girls now growing up
could see what n mission they might
take up as American women. Our own
American women-those of highest
training and possibilities-are respon-
sible. There is a great waste of the
force which they should be in the ma
ton, either in foolish surface living,
of elegant form and pretense, or in a
struggle to assert an outside power.
Either way, homes are dropping
through, while colleges and clubs flour
ish; the best clement is being drafted
away. Families, such as should make
the noble increase or leaven and NOR
ally control it, are dwindling to mi
nority in the community.
One passing word, good natured,
not cantankerous, about clubs. 1t is
borne in upon me anxiously that wom-
en- nowadays, at least in and about
the great centers, are clubbing them
selves to death. And | think | have
found out the heroic reason why. Sud-
denly a little while ago they discoy-
cred that they were too many in the
world, ever SO many to one man, and
with a grand sagacity and yet grand
er altruism they set out to thin down,
as rapidly and effectively as possible,
their own ranks. Naturalists tell us
of wonderful little race of Alaskan
rodents, which once in a certain so long
reaches an enormous increase, so that
it's numbers are beyond computation.
Then all at once, of their own accord,
they set forth in steady columns, de-
liberately, comfortably, gayly, picking
up thei- sufficient substance as they
go. and even multiplying on the way,
until their persistent march brings
tnem to the Pacific sea, into which they
calmly walk and are drowned. Toward
some such brave, pathetic burial and
end is the great woman-concourse, of
its own sublime will and purpose,
marching to o-dayl-Mrs. A. D. I. Whit

Rocking Chairs Everywhere - No Mat
E. tresses Used Because of the Heat.
The houses are mainly broad and low,
three-story buildings being rare and
one-story structures quite common.
You notice that everything is made to
serve comfort and GOODNESS. Instead of
having panes of glass, the windows are
open and guarded by light iron ratings,
and the heavy wooden doors are left
aiar. You see into many houses Us you
pass along, and very cool and clean
they look. There are marble floors,
cane-seated chairs and lounges, thin
lace curtains, and glimpses of courts in
the center of each building, often with
green plants or gaudy flowers growing
in them between the parlor and the
kitchen. You will find much the same
plan at your hotel. You may walk in
at the doors or the dining-room win
dows just as you please, for the sides
of the houses seem capable of being
all thrown open, while in the center of
the building you see the blue sky over
head. Equally cool do all the inhab-
itants appear to be, and the wise man
who consults his own comfort will do
well to follow the general example.
Even the soldiers wear straw hats.
The gentlemen are clad in underwear
of silk or Isle thread and suits Of linen,
drill or silk, and the ladies are equally
coolly appareled. Havana is a dressy
place, and you will be astonished at
the neatness and style to which the It's
suelike goods worn there are made to
conform. But come and see the apart
ment you are to tin every night. Ten
to one the ceiling is higher than you
ever saw in a private house, and the
huge windows open upon n balcony
overlooking verdant plaza. The floor
is of marble or tiling, and the bed is an
ornate iron or brass affair with a tight

netting in place of the mattress you are
used to. You could not sleep on a mat
tress with any proper degree of comfort
in the tropics. There is a canopy with
curtains overhead, and everything
about the room is prstty certain TO be
scrupulously clean. Conspicuous there
and everywhere else that you go is a
rocking-chair. Rocking-chairs are to be
found in rows in the houses and in
regiments in the clubs.-Cornhill Mag

ADaneerous Snake.

Next to the perro sompopo the toboba,
a snake with scales OF brilliant hue,
is the most dangerous of the many
smaller denizens of the brush. The
toboba's greatest length is about three
feet. 1t has a long, thin body and head
like an adder. but it's fangs are of the
most extraordinary length. This snake
lives in trees and is not to be feared un-
less angered or attacked. Then it will
fight TO the death and inflict wounds
that are in themselves exceedingly pain
full, TO say nothing of the virus that is
injected every time the snake strikes.
The toboba has lacerated n mans arms
until they looked as though they had
been slitwith knife. The favorite an
tidote for the toboba's bite is the same
rs in North America for the bite Of the
rattler-stupifying doses of alcohol .
