HE WANTS NO sECOND7ERM
Mr.. Bryan States His Position
on the Issues.
HOW HE HEARD THE NEWS
When the Result Became Known His
Rooms We're Besieged and He Held
Recept1On-He Gives Out an Inter-
view-PrincipIe, Not the Man, Nom-
mated.

Chicago, July 1O.-william Jennings
Bryan, the nominee OF today's convention,
heard the news at his rooms in the Clifton
House, and received it without any ap-
parent show of feeling. His wife was
not present TO greet him, for she witnessed
the extraordinary demonstration in the
nall that stampeded the convention to the
standard of her husband.
Together with a few friends Mr.. Bryan
received bulletins that told him or every
movement in the political game being played
at the Coliseum. AT this distance, un-
moved by the stirring scenes enacted on
the floor of the Convention. Mr.. Bryan
was able TO analyze the situation and
ngure out the victory that appeared to be
within his grasp at an early hour this
morning.
A party OF newspaper men were the first
to congratulate him after the reception of
the bulletin announcing his nomination.
As the men gathered about him to shake
hands Mr.. Bryan reached for piece o paper
and standing at II handicapped bureau,
wrote the following which he said was
intended for the AMERICAN people:
NO SECOND TERM.
In order that may have no ambition
but to discharge faithfully the duties OF
.nc oitice, uesire 10 announce tndt II
elected shall, under no circumsta noes, be
a candidate for reelection"
After inditing this declaration Mr.. Bryan
accepted the congratulations that were
rendered and in few moments it was
apparent that the room would not accom-
modate those who were surging to get in.
In response TO appeals Mr.. Bryan took a
position in the lobby, and for almost an
hour shook hands with the crowds as they
passed in line.
Without receiving all those who kept
pouring into the hotel Mr.. Bryan went to
his room TO geta few minutes rest. Before
he reached there some unknown admirer
had preceded him with a beautiful bunch
of handsome cut flowers. The telegrams
began coming in a a lively rate con ntaiuing
from every section OF the

UNITY.

If every Georgia Democrat will
take as his motto this year and act
ON it, "Party first, persons after, .
there would be no question as to a
sweeping Democratic victory. Ii
they do not take this stand there is
likely to be trouble.-Exchange.
Words fifty spoken. Tho party is
confronting crisis that will test
its strength and patriotism. After
democratic nominations are made,
the party will have to battle with
Republicanism and Populism and a
divided party, with factional fight
ing and division inside the ranks,
can not win victory. Independ~
entism is also in the melee, and
Democrats must lay aside their diff
ferences, get together, perfect the
party organization, and keep the
party solid and invincible.

A man who acquires d habit of
giving way to depression is on the
road to ruin. When trouble comes
upon him, instead Of rousing his
energies to combat it, he weakens
and his facilities grow dull, and his
judgment becomes obscured, and he
sinks in the slough Of despair. And
if anybody pulls him out by main
force and places him safe on solid
ground, ne stands there detected
and discouraged, and is pretty sure
to waste the means of help which
have been given. How different il
is with The man who takes a cherry
view Of life even at its worst, and
faces every ill with unyielding
pluck. He may be swept away by
an overwhelming tide of misfortune,
but he bravely struggles for the
shore and is ever ready to make the
most of the help that may be given
him. A cheerful, hopeful, cour-
ageous disposition is an invaluable
trait Of character, and should be
assiduousIy cultivated.

Authentic news OF rare treasure
trove comes in a letter from Mr.. w.
s. Christy of Balsam, N. c., to his
brother in Athens.
An old farmer named Sanders
was digging in his field and found q
box containing number OF gold
and silver coins, also gold bullion.
The old man hid his treasure for
fear the owner o! the land on which
it was found might claim it, but a
friend OF Mr.. CAristy's saw the old
fellow measure out several water
buckets full of the coins. The
amount of money discovered is very
large.
The coins are English and Span
ish, mostly the latter, some OF them
bearing the date Of 1877. The place
where they were found has long
been regarded as haunted, and the
old citizens say that for many years
curious lights have passed up anG
down the valley and halted over the
very spot where the money wai
found.
The money is supposed to hav.
belonged TO party Of Spaniards
who were murdered by the Indians
over 100 years ago.

HIGHLY ENDORSED.
Rev. n. A. Jones Soon to Begin q Re-
VIvsi at the Cumberland Presbyterian
Church In This City.

Rev. II. A. Jones, an eminent
divine in the Cumberland Presbyter-
ian church will on February 8, begin
a series of revival sermons in this
city. He is at present conducting a
revival in Gainesville and to Judge
favorably of his ability it is only
necessary to read the appended
letter which appeared in the Gaines
vile Register of a recent date. 1t is
as follows:
'The protraeted meeting now
going on at the Cumberland church
presided over by Rev. II. A. Jones
ought to be attended by every man,
woman and child in the city. His
sermons take rank with the greatest
and grandest that have ever been
delivered from any pulpit, Those
who have doubts will easily have
them removed by his plain and elo-
quent exposition of the truths OF the
Bible, and those things which have
heretofore seemed obscure and with
out reason are by him made so plain
that a child can understand them.
His sermons are peculiarly free from
anything personal or abusive, just
such sermons as will reach that class
of men, who cannot be driven, but
can be easily led to become better
men, and when once enlisted in the
good cause will make the very best
christians. The writer has been a
skeptic for twenty years, but his
idols are being rapidly demolished
under the blows of this mighty man.
Mr.. Jones is a finished scholar and
orator, has travelled extensively, is a
close observer, and his range of in
formation both biblical and histori-
cal is wonderful. This added to his
devotion to the cause to which he
has dedicated his great powers and
life make him peculiarly strong be-
fore his congregation. II there be
nothing in the influence of religion,
nothing in the inspiration of the
Bible, no future good or bad, still
his sermons are a rare literary and
intellectual treat, and will well repay
any intelligent man or woman to go
out to hear him.

Amusements.

The Tornado last night at the
opera house by Lincoln j. Carter's
company was perhaps the grandest
rendition of scenic effect ever wit
messed in Ardmore. The crowd
present was good considering the
inclemency of the weather. Had the
night been more propitious the house
would no doubt have had its capacity
tested. Those who were there felt
that they had done well in facing the
elements. The storm outside was
nothing compared to that going on
within the walls. The production
was all that had been advertised
leaving no cause for unjust criticism
and those who stayed at home are
the only ones to complain. Much
credit is due to the opera house
management in having secured sc
popular an attraction.
