SRlIy and FitZ.

Now that the match for points has
been settled between Bob Fits mmons
and John l.. Sullivan and the contest
is to take place next Monday night in
Brooklyn, anything relating to these
two pugiliStS is readable. Lately a
New York Journal reporter met FitZ-
simmons and the following interview
resulted

Advertiser reporter Concerning John

simmons said: Yes, [ saw Johns

SIZED UP BY
a Remarkably Correct Picture of VIM.
J. Bryan.

The --latest thing from the pen OF John
J. Ingalls, in recent years is his estimate
of William J. Bryan, which he gave %
the newspapers this week.
Referring to the nee that
Mr.. Bryan had abandoned his lecture
tour after his Atlanta engagement und
would hereafter devote his efforts to BIZ
metallism, Mr.. Ingalls, said:
Coincidence of three things is neces-
sary to a great speech. There must be
a speaker, an occasion and an audience,
either sympathetic or hostile. OF these
the audience is perhaps the most import
ant. Shakespeare, who say everything
better than anybody else, hits the truth
when he makes Rosalind declare that
a jest's prosperity lies in the ear
Ot him hat hears il, never in the tongue
OF him that makes it
This is us true of IN orator as it is
OF n joke. The prosperity of a speech
lies in the ears OF the audience: never
in the tongue of the orator.
This was pre-eminently true of Bry-
ans speech at Chicago, which will prob
ably stand as a historic example among
the conspicuous oratical triumphs OF the
18th century. Taken as an intellectual
effort, the address was distinctly COM
monplace. 1t had neither depth, coher-
ence nor originality. It's plaudits were
The canned goods of the trade. Its
ornaments were tinsel. Its climax was
borrowed without credit. But not
w~ithstanding these defects and infirm-
tiles, judged by results, it must be taken
as n Of the most remarkable achieve
ments of our times. Its prosperity was
in the ears of the convention. not in the
OF Bryan. He was like the rod
that conducted the bolt from the sur
thunder cloud. He said at the
instant what the frenzied
wanted to utter. He was the
of the volcano; the vortex OF the
cyclone. He was the central figure in
IN unprecedented drama. He culmin-
tied in that tremendous episode which
an not be duplicated.
Opportunity knocked at his gate and
le heard and obeyed the summons. The
ampaign that followed was hysterical
nd laborious. Thronging myriads as

OLD-TIME PRINTERS TALE.

kirke LaShelle, manager Of the Wiz
ard OF the Nile Comic Opera company,
used to be a printer on the daily papers
of Chicago in the earlier times, and
tells some interesting stories. He has
seen both sides of life, and in sunny
times of the present has not entirely
forgotten a certain charm that gilded
the days when things did not come
quite so easy"
In thef first place. he vas a printer on
a country paper down at Wyoming, Ill.
He distributed pi, washed the rollers,
helped with the press work, built the
fires and swept the office. And he re-
ceived SIPS a week for his services.
There was a j~ourneyman printer who
could make Sc or 81 when he was So
Der, and who could quote whole pages
OF Byron and Scott and Tennyson when
he was drunk. The foreman received
s12 a week; and The sum seemed per-
fectly stupendous to LaShelle.
Whatever could a man do with s12 a
week? In what possible manner could
hefind places for so much money ?Where
could he put it? How should he spend
it? How greater than the fortunes OF
princes was the estate of this foreman
who received SIP a week!
LaShelle grew in efficiency till he
could set as much type as the Journey
man, and then the latter rose to such
.inebrfated heights that he could no
longer recite poetry, and was d~ischarg-
ed. The pay Of the apprentice was then
raised to SO a week. The foreman left
and came to Chicago, and after a time
wrote for his former devil and the
lad left Wyoming and took a place as
g~alley-boy on the old Telegraph, which
had been started as a greenback paper
by Colonel S. F. Norton.
1t was an afternoon paper, and La
Shelle had all the work he could do, and
IS a week for doing it. After a
while Colonel Norton retired from the
paper and a man named Collins, from
Winchester. came up and invested $40,-
300 in the struggling concern. 1t is said
Of Mr.. Collins that his dream Of life
consisted in the ability to write passes
o theaters; and the dream was never

Congress could not do better than fol
low the recommendation OF President
Mckinley and turn the whole question
of our currency over to Il nOu-partisan

10 get their opinion of what ought to be

No change should be made until it is

We now have. The country mad a dose
OF the effects OF changing during the last
four years that ought to suffice for a
century to come. When a wise man has
a complicated legal case on hand he
employs the best legal talent to be had.
This COUNTRY needs financial advice. but
it wants it from men who have proven

own affairs. and not from blatant dema-
gOgues who sway with every ism that
