candidate for Vice President,
receives gold or its equivalent
on foreign charter contracts

Washington, D. c. Sept. 81:
Cardinal Satolli has learned
to ride the bicycle. About a
week ago a well-knowfn bicycle
manufacturing concern pre-
sented him with an elegant
wheel, and the Cardinal was
induced to try it. The large
ball room of the Legation was
converted into a riding acade-
my and the Cardinal, after a
few attempts succeeded in pi-
loting the machine around with
fair skill.
There is always a number
Of the clergy about the Lega-
ton, and many of them ride
wheels, so the Cardinal had
no difficulty in finding some
one 70 teach him how to ride
the bicycle. The big room
has been cleared several times
while the apostolic delegate
laid aside his clerical robe,
but none of his digni-
fed bearing and took a
spin around the table which
stands in the center at frs
braced OF either side by a
priest, then gradually conf

Now he is able. to make the

has encircled that table some
fifty times to each lap, riding
from one end of the room tc
the other, and carefully turning
the. corners, the cyclometel
says he has been one whole

For eighteen hundred years
the world produced about six
teen times more silver than
gold. Both were used during
that tinae as standard money af
commerce. Gold was about
sixteen TIRES more valuable
than silver, ON az average, for
that time. Within a few years
the leading silver countries,
Germany, Frances the Emitted
States, and others, absolutely
ceased TO coin silver on equal
teFms with gold, or to RECOGNIZES
u rs standard money. This re-
leased a stated demand for sill
yer equal to- at least hundred
H.llllon per amman. In the
course of a few years the value
Of gold was thirtytwo times
that OF silver willis the amount
of silver produced was only
sixteen times that OF gold.
Does il take, divine inspira ion
to teach man why silver felli
Does it take e prophet to pre-
dict that if a relatively great
drmand is caused for silver by
reinstating. it where it stood,
that the rates Of value will
again coineid+4 with the rates

That is the most

in November. That is the most
significant thing I can see in
this',election, speaking practical
ly. Money has played an i'm
portant part in the work of the
republican party during this
oampain-how mitch am not
able to say. But the republicans
have had a magnificent or
ganization and an immense
fund. AS l said before, they
have used more money in
Maine to produce this effect
than they have ever used here.
| am very much encouraged by
the fact that we have already
tens of thousands of free silver
voters ia this State where three
months ago we had less than
5000 OF that faith. 1t shows
how fast the free silver doctrine
is spreading. There was not
a man who voted for Frank to
day who will not vote for
Bryan in November. / believe
that we shalt go on converting
thousands to our side, and if
we make as much progress in
the next six weeks as wa have
since the Chicago convention,
the result may surprise some
people"
Mr.. Sewail sat down and
glanced over the kilograms in
his hand for few moments.
"This money system of ours
will he changed" he observed
"Whether we win in November
or not the change is coming

hood is going to lose by it, ]

rata as must as any man, bul
we will win in November. We
have had a very short time to
work, but you can see by ihe
result in Maine how rapidly the
free silver idea spreads among
tour common people. My opin
ion is that we have made mos
of our gains in the country dis
tricts. Certainly we have little

New York Press.

Dir. AuguStuS IldTTlS was
one of the most remarkable
examples in England of what
can be accomplished by enter
prise and perseverance. The
story of his rise from extreme
poverty to great affiuence
reads more 1ike an "Arabian
Nights" episode than the his
tory of a man of the present
prosaic period.
Augustus Harris started life
as a hangeron and general
utility man behind the scenes
of Drury Lane theater, his
father having been one of the
minor performers in that old
and famous play house. There
is no record Of the son ever
having appeared on the boards
himself, but during the time
| that he spent at the theater he
occupied himself in becoming
thoroughly familiar with the
details of the management Of
play houses.
The manner in which he
made his first theatrical ven
ture is a remarkable instance
of successful bluff" Young
Harris had hardly a six pence
to bless himself with, and yet
he succeeded in producing an
expensive pantomine at Drury
Lane. In after years he was

Of this first venture of his. a
