JACKSONVILLE, ILL.,. Oct 25.-It was a
day of quiet and rest that Bryan spent
in this city, where for six years he pre-
pared himself for his after life. In the
morning ne attended services at the state
Street Presbyterian church and listened to
a sermon by Rev \. y. Morris. 1t was
probably the largest congregation that di-
vine has addressed IN that edince. Long be-
fore the hour that the congregation gem
orally assemblies the church was crowded
and in front OF the building many OF the
citizens of Jacksonville waited for over an
hour in order to get glimpse of the former
citizen. when he did arrive there wrs a
general Craning of necks and one OF the
admirers of his opponent cheered for Nc
Knley.
The sermon did not touch upon any OF
the political issues and barring the usual
prayer for the welfare Of these in high Of
fees no one would have known that a man
OF national reputation helped to make up
the congregation. After the sermon an in
formal reception was held from the pew
which MIR. Bryan had occupied and as soon
as possible the nominee was taken out of
a side door, put into Il carriage and driven
rapidly away.
Mr.. Bryan spent the day at the home OF
DR.. Hiram j. Jones, where he lived during
his residence in this city There were few
callers, but outside the house a large crowd
gathered and stared at the few visitora
who were admitted to grasp the hand and
exchange compliments of the day with the
candidate. Tomorrow Mr. Bryan viii adj
