BEGGARY FOR THE>PE0PLE.
Legislation for the Magnatss-That Is the Re-
publican Idea Of Statecraft- Bryan's
Ovation in Ohio Continued.

Xenia, o., Oct. 19.--Dayton gave MIR.
Bryan the most enthusiastic demonstra-
ton of the day. In fact, two greetings
were accorded him there. The first was
not on the programme. In the run over
to Hamilton, the train passed through
Dayton and a crowd of nearly, If not
quite, 10, 900 surrounded it in the railway
station during it's short wait there and
cheered the nomine for several minutes.
On the return to Dayton from Hamilton
the principal exercises of the day took
place. Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan We're convey
ed to the fair grounds, two miles distant.
People filled the grand stand to It's Ut,
most capacity and tremendous CROWD
was drawn up in front and on every size
of the platform from which Mr. Bryan
spoke.
Mr. Bryan had lost so much time at
Hamilton and was so far behind ms
schedule that he cut his speech short he
said in part:
'"There is not an argument that can be
made against bimetallism which has not
been answered over and over again, ana
yet in spite of the fact that every oDJec-
ton to bimetallism has been met and eX-
PEELED, our opponents are appealing 10
every class of people and trying TO arouse
a selfish interest in favor of the gold
standard One of the last appeals has
have been sent from the national republl=
can committee to the various missionary
societies. We go upon the theory that
the only permanent prosperity that can
come to this country is prosperity
whose blessings begin with the people
who produce wealth and go to all the
other classes of society Our opponents
insist that you must legislate to take care
of the financial magnates because tney
have to be looked after. The people can
beg"
Delays at Hamilton and Dayton had
caused the Bryan train to lose mucn
time, and it was two hours late in arrfV-
ing at Xenia. But the crowd, which had
been patiently waiting all that time 1or
Mr.. Bryan'S appearance, did not decrease
in number, and there were fully 5000 peo-
pie to greet him when his train matted
beside the temporary stand that had
been erected for his accommodation. In
order to avoid further delay, however,
Mr.. Bryan spoke from the rear platform
from those who had come early to obtain
points of vantage near the stand only to
find themselves farther away from the
candidates voice than the late corners,
but Mr.. Bryan put them in good humor
and made a speech of five minutes which
was frequently interrupted by applause.
Five hundred people in jamestown
heard him for one minute. At Washing
ton Court House, reached after dark, at
least 5000 people were gathered and an
other rear platform speech, ten minutes
in length, was delivered by the nominee.
Rain was falling when Mr.. Bryan reach
ed here at S:45 p. m. He addressed big
crowd and left twenty minutes later,

GRANTED LEAVE OF ABSENCE.
Committeeman Lee Will Come Home to
Recuperate.

Washingto ton, Oct. 19.-Consul General
Fitzhugh Lee has been granted leave of
absence from his post in Havana. and
will return at once to his home in Vir-
ginia. AS the result of his return all sorts
of Cuban rumors have become prevalent,
but it is asserted tonight by an official of
the state department that such infer
ences are not justified. 1t is said that
General Lee returns to the United States
solely on account of his health, and that
he will go back to his post as soon as he
recuperates from the effects Of his resi-
dence in the island. 1t is denied that there
is any political significance in his being
granted leave of absence at this time.

Marblehead Sent Home.

Washington, Oct. 19-Admiral Self
ridge cabled the navy department today
that the Marblehead left Smyrna this
morning for Gibraltar on her way home,
having on board all the men of his fleet
whose terms of enlistment will shortly
expire. The admiral's message contained
no reference to the other ships of his
command nor to any movements he con-
templated. The San Francisco and Ban
croft are still with the flagship Minneapo-
lis, and it is thought that had their mis-
sion been other than peaceful he would
not have'detached the Marblehead at this
time.

CALLED A. DRAW.
"a "Go'' Between Dave Sullivan and Jack
Ward at Baltimore.

Baltimore. Md, Oct. 19.~-The prettiest
sparring exhibition that has been seen in
baltimore in recent years was the "go'
tonight before the Eure1a Athletic club
between Dave Sullivan of Boston and
lack Ward of Newark, N J. For twenty
rounds the men gave and stood the
severest punishment, and for twenty
rounds of hard fighting the friends of
either cheered their favorite with shouts
of approval. Both men were in fine form
and prepared for the fight of their lives.
II can be safely said that each met his
equal in the fistic arena. Ward was the
weaker at the finish, but Sullivan show
ed the greater punishment, his face being
badly cut and bloody when Referee
Mantz declared the bout a draw.

thing RESEMBLING CONSERVATION, and when
the American opening cables were re-
ceived there was a scene such as is not
usually seen except in time of war. The

be chiefly due to the scale of American

think that rise of five shillngs per

by Which the Direction of Sound May BE
Accurately Determined.
Possibly there is no greater terror
among the many met with at sea than
fog. The helplessness Of our harbor
boats and the clamor of bells and whis-
ties during a heavy fog in New York
harbor give one some idea Of this night
mare of the ocean, but when a fog closes
down upon vessel at sea the most reck-
less captain proceeds cautiously and
anxiously.
The probability of collisions and
wrecks due to fogs has been accepted as
a sort of unavoidable evil, which must
become greater as the number and speed
Of vessels increase. But the inventive
genius of man could not let such con-
dition Of affairs continue without at
tempting to do away with it, and there
has been perfected simple instrument,
called the eophone, by which the direc-
ton from which sound proceeds may
be determined with absolute accuracy in
fog or darkness.
The simplest description of the in
strument is that it consists Of two bell
mouthed sound receivers, separated by a
central diaphragm. The sound receivers
are connected to the two cars, AID, when
pointed directly at a source Of sound,
the noise is the Same H. each ear. When
turned away, the sound is heard in only
one ear.
On shipboard the sound catching and
dividing part of the instrument extends
above the top Of the charthouse. The
tubes are brought within the chart
house, and the instrument may be turned
from below TO point in any desired di-
rection.
The eophonc has now been perfected,
there being many points for which nu-
merous experiments, lasting over several
years, have been required, in order 10
determine the best form, especially with
the sounding tubes and ear pieces. Va
rious refinements, such ms microphoncs
and devices adding TO the complication,
but not improving the use, have been
eliminated, New York Herald.

COMPLAINTS.

The News has become the repository OF
three complaints, one ofwhich is from the
inhabitants of Calumet, who complain
that, in the absence of any law to the
contrary, the owners OF COWS allow them,
and many OF the cows have a bell attach
ment, to meander about at night at their
own sweet will, to the annoyance OF their
neighbors. This should certainly be put
a stop TO and if there is at present no law
to do it one should be arrived at, either
by statute or township rule.
1t seems scarcely possible, but on Sat
urday last resident OF Keweenaw coun-
ty informed us that the Boys Brigade
had made sad havoc OF the glass in the
windows OF the old houses on the mining
location where they had camped. Our
informant did not know which OF the
companies did the mischief, but from his
remarks we presume it was the company
which returned from camp last week. He
also informed us that it was stated in
heweenaw county that the captain, or
one OF the officers, was present when the
boys were firing at the windows. and
also limited that il was more than likely
some OF the boys would be prosecuted for
their connection with the damage done.
II there is no foundation for this report
the sooner, in justice 70 the BOYS and the
officers, it is contradcted the better. but.
II on the other hand, it is true the com
pany should be assessed for the damage
done, as those in command must have
known OF IL and should at once have
taken steps to stop it. IL certainly was
very poor recompense to the owner or
agent OF the location TO have the proper-
ty destroyed in return orgiving the boys
a camping ground. Twas certainly not
fulfilling the good old doctrine of return.
