MIR BRYAN's ROBUSTNESS.

There is much anxiety among
the friends of Mr.. Bryan about
his health, says the Raleigh
News and Observer, and many
fear that he will be unable to
keep up his wonderful speak
ing tour until the end Of the
campaign. The New York
had a picture representing him
as faintipy from weakness, and
unable to finiso his speech in
New York city, The facts are
that he did mot speak out Of
doors because of the rain, and
that his physical condition il
perfect. He will be able to holC
out to the end, gieatly to the
regret of those who see th'
havoc he carries into the golC
camps. He is strong and 70
bust.

A Wonderful Performance that Marks New
Era In RaiIroading
The fast train leaving Chicago daily at
6 p. m. for San Francisco and Los Angeles,
known as the Overland Limited, broke the
long distance record yesterday, making
the run from Council Bluffs to Cheyenne, a
distance of 519 miles, in the remarkable
time of $40 minutes.
The train left Council Bluffs four hours
and twenty minutes late, and reached
Cheyenne on time, giving the Union Pa
cific an opportunity to test the speed Of
the new engines built especially for these
fast trains, over what is conceded to be
the fastest track in the west. The wonder.
full performance marks new era in trans
