Washington, March 26.-Speaker
Reed is experiencing no little trouble
these days In holding in checis those
Republican members OF the house who
are enthusiastic for the nomination of
Major Mckinley. Some OF the sup

selves decidedly offensive to the big
man from Maine. and there IL going to
be an explosion here one of these days
and the speaker of the house will touch
off the fireworks.

0eR.
While the ladies' Of LA,ona. q well ~
elsewhere throuyhouk this state, were not
permitted TO vote II the recent election.
they found other means OF showing their
enthusiasm by organising campaign clubs
and entering into agreements whereby
one or the other of the admirers OF Nc
kinney or Bryan. ~ the case might be,
would have 70 furnish to the successful
gloves. bon bons and other things OF .
ike nature Among the admirers Of Mr..
Bryan none were more eloquent or ardent
In his behalf than Arx. o. B. Knapp. while
the same may be said OF Mrs William
Copestick regarding Mckinley. The
agreement In this case was that the
loser should furnish IN oyster dinner. the
b.valves TO be OF Eastern growth and that
the successful lady b permitted to invite
gentleman friend to insure the conver-
sasion being OF . non-politioai nature. The
agreement was fulfilled last Sunday aft
eriroon at the cozy residence OF Mr.. ana
Mrs o. B. Knapp on Logan street, and to
say shat the gentlemen were pleased at
being IN on" the 'agreement' would be
putting IL rather mildly. Two large metal
lie plaques containing profiles In has relief
OF Mckinley and Bryan in gold and silver
respectively. adorned the center of the
u-n4LS tapirs SHai Oh Mckinney De-nS al

of Is TO /. Each OF the guests were also
presented with souvenir Mckinley and
Bryan napkin ringA Oysters were served
in every shape that culinary art could de-
wise. accompanied by all the necessary
condiments that tend to make oysters
more palatable. Although Mrs. Knapp
has not surrendered her allegiance TO the
cause OF free silver. Ii can be safely said
that had Mr.. Bryan been elected it Is
doubtful II she would have been able to
rejoice or celebrate his election to any
greater extent than she did that Of Nc
kinley. Those present were: Mr.. and
Mrs Charles H. Dellan,. Mr. and Mrs.
William Copestick, Mr.. and Mrs. O. B.
Knapp and Dir. Charles Morton.
