Lincoln and Bryan Have Jared Alike,

Whatever Williams Jennings Bryan
has suffered at the hands of the New
York newspapers given over to the sup
port of ideas and ideals dictated from
Wall street, Abraham Lincoln suffer
ed exactly thirty-six years ago.
Bryan has been ridiculed, carica
tured, abused so was Lincoln.
In 1860 New York treated "Old Abe
as it now treats the "Boy Orator"
Bryan has been described as a revo-
olutionary, as an Anarchist, as dan
gerous person was Lincoln.
Bryan has been represented as an il
literate country clown this fortunate
victim of a great political accidents
was Lincoln represented.
Bryan has been accused of demogogy
of utterances which had not the sup
port of his beliefs or of his intentions.
So, thirty-six years ago. was Lincoln.
Bryan's election has been said to be
2 precursor of commercial ruin and
bloody revolutions so, with more of
truth, was Lincolns.
Bryan's nomination has been alleged
to carry the responsibility for such
bank failures, decline in the values of
securities and general commercial com
plications as the past two months have
given to the years history.
Lincoln's nomination was, in 1860, al
legged to carry all the responsibility for
the great New England shoemakers'
strike of that year and the failure of
the Artizan's Bank in this city.
Bryan's appearance at Madison
Square Garden has been made the sub
ject of ridicule and jest.
Lincoln's speech at the Cooper Union
in 1860 was received not only with rid
icule but with virulent abuse as well.
Bryan's tour of New York State and
the Northern Middle States has been
followed by the New York journals ac-
cepting the dictation of Wall street,
with close and venemous attention
which disdained not the sacrifice of
truth in the interest of partizan abuse.
Lincoln's tour of the New England |
States in 1860 was marked by the same
careful and vindictive attention on the
part of the journals opposed to the
principles represented and enunciated
by him.-New York Journal

on which from the center of the red
fringe of silk upon she hat, rises sap

Duel on Bicycles.

A correspondent says that duel on
bicycles was fought on the Boulevard
Ney. A large party of young fellows
had been out cycling all day and we're
returning home, all very hilarious,
when two of them quarreled and they
decided to settle the dispute by duel
with swords on their bicycles. The
two combatants were placed 80 yards
apart and then ordered to charge.
They rode at one another at furious
pace but overshot the mark and failed
to meet. Wheeling quickly they re-
turned TO the charge, and this time
came together with terrific shock.
Both were thrown, while the seconds,
who were following behind, also on BIZ
cytles, fell in their turn and both were
injured. Neither of the combatants
touched the other with his sword; but
in falling one ran his weapon into him
self and his opponent injured his leg.
