Mr.. Green has changed his mind and
is now willing TO see an Afro Ameri-

No better man than Ex-senator Bruce

NEW works. GREATEST SCENE.
New York's famous thoroughfare,
Broadway, has been the scene OF some
wonderful events. But the one scene
which still stands as the most remark
able, in point of enthusiasm, is Louis
KosSuth'S famous ride up Broadway,
in 1851. Kossu h had already seen
and passed through a crowd of $780,
600 people in his triumphal ride up the
great thoroughfare The eliminating
moment, however, occurred when the
great Hungarian patriot reached the
corner of Broadway and Ann street.
The sight that burst upon him stag
gered h m for the moment. In the
open square directly before him was
masSed together quarter of mi lion
of people. and when this vast con-
course broke into united cheer Kos
suth was fairly bewildered No man
saw this great event so well and ad-
vantageously as did Parke Goodwin,
the veteran New York editor and Kos
suth's closest friend in America. Mr..
Goodwin was with Kossuth, and for the
first time he will now tell the story of
:he marvellous event in the February
Ladies Home Journal The actual
scene at Ann street will also be shown
in picture by De Thulstrup. showing
Kossuth in his carriage as the great
scene burst upon him.
