Pritchard's success lis an absorbing one
TO Pritchard and the boys who want
10 beat him. The story is already going
the rounds that the Republicans would
spend 100000 TO eIeet gold man. OF
course nobody can be bought in North
Carolina, but silver dollars lately have
become much larger than they usually
seem, and $1,000 or $4,000 would feel
good in a fellows pocket"

Since Bishop Keane retired from the
Fectorship of the Catholic University, Mr..
O'Bfien, a prominent Catholic of New
Orleans, has died, leaving $150,000 to
the university. In the Baltimore Sun
a friend Of the Bishop thus explains
how the bequest came to be made:
when Mr. O'Brien drew up his viii,
six or seven years ago, he left in it $780,
900 to the university, and this to all ap-
pearances was the full amount he inteded
to leave to the institution. Later on he
was present at st. Patrick's church, in
New Orleans, when Bishop Keane
preached q sermon. Mr.. O'Brien was so
forcibly impressed by the preacher that
added 100000 to his former be.

When DIR. Parkhurst compared Mr..
Bryan to a viper before election, no one
equirIned, because nearly every one in
these parts regarded Bryan as a public
enemy; but now that he denounees the
coal trust as blood-suczers and as "pos-
sessed Of the demon Of theft and murder"
"a truly Parkhurstian phrase), loud
squawking arises from the "capitaIistic
press" It appears that the doctor is now
melting class hatred" and displaying

Hartford Times, after examining his
Thanksgiving day utterances, finds "a
very demagogic note to ignorant and
inconsiderate" persons. or course the
New York Sun is terribly wrought up
over the Doctors sentiments. Springfield
