plenteous rest that he is at his best.
Then his voice takes on its bell metal
tones again, and he begins to develop
into his old form. People think tha,
Mr.. Bryan is killing himself wiki his
strenuous efforts in this campaign. If
he is he does not think SO himself. He
is said TO believe in his destiny, being
in this respect also like Stonewall Jack
son. He carries this faith in himself
SO far as 10 think that he can undergo
any labor without detriment TO himself
Seeing him haggard and worn and
half Oceless, and having in mind the
fact that Judge Settle killed himself
and that Senator Vance shortened his
days by the wear and tear of the Stale
campaign Of 1876, the Obsetver repre-
sentative on the special train put the
question to Mr.. Bryan, "Do you not
think you will cut some years off the
end Of your life under this s,rain?"
The reply was immediate and en-
phatic, ooh, no; not at ALL" and a
vigorous shake of the head. Mr. Bryan
treats the matter of his personal com
fort somewhat in this manner. He
says: ga man said to me the other day,
'Mr. Bryan, you certainly are engag
ing in an Herculean task Well, if |
am | told him, the stables are hardly
any cleaner now than when began.
And SO he dismisses the matter, very
lightly.
A gentleman, gentle man; a noble
man, a nobleman by nature, not pri-
mogenitufe; kindly man at heart.
In spite of swollen arm and hand, Mr..
Bryan is ever ready to suffer one more
grip, one more pang, one more jerk,
to satisfy the longing he may see in
the wistful face of some last, lingering
belated admirer. a hundred hands
were extended through the car win
dows at Asheviile. In the press an old
man with white beard and sad face
looked longingly toward the car. "You
ought to shake hand, with that man
yonder, Mr.. Bryan.!' said someone
near. Receiving a look of recognition
from the Nebraskan, the old man
pressed forward, and the mountaineers
at once made way for him. Reaching
up his wrinkled palm, he said in a
voice full Of plaintiveness, "pm Zeb
Vance's brother, Mr.. Bryan.' He was
General and ex-Congressman Robert
B. Vance. No, let it be as the old
man said himself-just ,'Zeb Vance's
brother.'
A good man; true man. Little
wonder that those who endorse his
every belief adore him; and if Provi-
dence deslines the restoration Of silver,
no safer man from all the silver ranks
could have been chosen to bring it
about than William Jennings Bryan.

Mr.. William Jennings Bryan has
made triumphant tour Of North Car
olna. His progress through the
State was a series of ovations. The
greatest demonstrations were of course
at the largest towns-at Asheville,
Charlotte, Greensboro, Raleigh and
Goidsboro. Careful observers, calm
historians OF the occasion, who were
on Mr.. Bryan's train all the while,
tell US that the greatest crowd by far
and 10y far the most enthusiastic,
was that at Greensboro; one Of the
greatest gatherings, but the least en-
| ,husiastic OF them all, was that at
Charlotte.
Mr.. Bryan's speeches at all points
were short and jerky, as must of
necessity have been the case from the
length of time devoted TO each point.
1t is agreed that the neatest speech Of all
those ne made was the one at States
Vile. The extraordinary thing about
them as whole was that each was diff
erent from all The others and tia. he
said nn'hlng foolish in any Of them.

th= same thread has run through all
his speeches. Yet they have been es-
sen,ially difierent-dfferent in the
language in which they have been
clothed and different in the phase cl

this variety of thought and expires
sion it is quite within bounds to say
that in this extraordinary journey
Mr.. Bryan has proved himself the
most versatile man VINO has ever
appeared before the American pub
