brought to us-to our Missionaries--to
keep them from starving to death.
Our orphanages are running over full,
and we have no support for these. Our
societies cannot give 1t, for they are
effected by the hard times at home.
The Lord is sending these children and
and we believe He will send money to
support them. Who wants a part in
the evangeization of India? Do you?
If so, will you not seId US $25 to sup

Chicago, Jan. 27.-The dispatches from
Nevada referring 10 the passage of a
bill under the provisions of which Dan
Stuart could pull off the Corbett- Fitz-
simmons battle have set the sports here
agog.
George SiIer, who is to referee the
big mill, and who. in conjunction with
Malachi Hogan, is to run special train

commit himself as to the location of the

two just where the ring is to be pitch
ed said Siler. I'VE have the train al
ready engaged, and yet the general
manager of the road with whom we are
doing business does not know. except in
an approximate sort of way, just how
far he will have to haul US. I will say
this much, however, we will be at the
ringside sixty hours after we pull out
of the depot in Chicago.
Mr.. Hogan and myself have been

Kansas will be SO years old next Fri
day, the 18th inst. Thirty-three states
were in the Union before Kansas was
admitted, and eleven came in since her
entrance. In a certain sense she is
among the new states, for the govern
ment under the constitution was nearly
three-quarters of a century old when
she was let in. Hardly any of the 40
states. however, have helped to make
more history. In this respect she is not
much behind Virginia, New York, Mas
sachusetts. or any other of the original
thirteen. Much of the history, too, has
been highly creditable. On one of two
occasions she has gone astray political
ly, and has thus lost a little in pres
tige and has been injured to some ex-
tent financially. She will learn some
thing from her mistakes, though, and
can be relied upon to put herself in line
in the next election with the most ra-
tional and progressive Of the sisterhood.

RRYAN,s MISTAKES.

There are perhaps but few of the
friends and admirers of William Jen-
nings Bryan who do not feel that he
has to some extent cheapened himself
since the election. Two months ago he
was the idol of large portion of the
six million freemen who cast their votes
for him in November.
Never perhaps in the history of the
country did a defeated candidate for
the presidency have such a hold on his
following or such prospect of retaining
it. But then came that lecture contract
with it's hippodrome system of adver-
Using. Whether he was a failure and a
disappointment to the public as a lee
turer, or whether he saw his mistake
and withdrew from the engagement for
that reason, matters little. He escaped
in time to have lived down whatever
damage there was to his reputation for
sagacity and to his dignity.
Now comes this book of his, ''The First
Battle" in which he has done even
worse than sing his own praises; he
has permitted Mrs. Bryan to sing them
for him. AS an example of bad taste
this has hardly ever been eQualled. Mr..
Bryan has done much and said much
to win the plaudits of those who believe
with him, especially, but even the esti-
ularity to which he has attained, can
not stand everything.
It will not be surprising if the Bryan
star shall begin to decline from the
time of the appearance of that book.
He would not be the first man to lose
his hold on the public by publishing a
book The editor of the Danbury News
who at one time ranked high as a flu-
norist, was scarcely ever heard of
again after he published a book. Bill
Nye was never so popular after he be-
gan to give his work to the public IN
book form and to lecture.
Mr.. Bryan will probably discover that
he should have stuck to oratory and
maintained his dignity, initiating the
example of Cincinnatus. The people
would have known where to find him
should they have wanted him again.
He has seemingly been unable to resist
| temptation, and it will not be surpris-
| ing if he be compelled to pay the ordi-
nary penalty melted out to those who
yield as he has done. Mrs. Bryan's am
| bition, self-assertion, fondness for her
| husband or something else, is said to
| have Influenced him to go contrary to
the wishes and advice of older heads on
| the committee during the campaign.
| How much that fact contributed to his
| defeat cannot be known. Perhaps it
is Mrs. Bryan who led him into the 9TH
| er mistakes above referred to. Howev-
| er that may be, the responsibility and
! the consequences will rest on him as
| far as the public is concerned.

NOTES.


Trick North 8 hand is instructive. It
contains very good plain suit {clubs), sure
re-entry in diamonds, four trumps to the
queen, constituting numerical strength
and good supporting cards, but not pro-
lection, in spades. On account Of the three
elements of ength-suit, re-entry and
trumps-the band calls for the trump open
ing or attack at once before starting the
best plain suit. If either of these elements
were absent, the opening would be differ
ent. For inst nce, ii there were one trump
less-hearts, Q, z, 4; clubs, A, @, J, 6, 3;
diamonds, A, 8, 3; spades, Q, I'VE should
prefer the strong gambit opening of the 5
Q. If the plain suit were much less pow
erful-hearts, Q, Z, 4, 8; clubs, A, 10, 2,
8, 2; diamonds, A, 8; spades, Q, i've
should try the 2. II the re-entry were
missing-hearts, Q, 9, 4, 3; clubs, A, Q,
J, 6, 2; diamonds, 8, 4; spades, O, I'VE
should again resort to the gam bit, s @
Trick 2.-West obeys tie general rule OF
showing his best plain suit after the ad-
verse trump opening
Trick BY playing the 81 on part
ner's lead and returning the H 10, South
indicates these two trumps alone, for if he
had had three exactly he would have play
ed the 10 FIRST and then the Q, and if he
had had more than three he would have
played the and returned the lowest. Aft
er this round, therefore, North can play
the remaining trump5-A, and 5-~ith
West
Tricks and 6-With the balance Of
power in tru.nps and the diamond suit es-
tablished against him, North is compelled
to do what he can with the clubs, regard
less OF the 10, ace in the suit. He leads
ace and then queen to show jack remain
ing.
After this trick North marks the C <
with partner. The remainder of the play
is immaterial. South made his G K and
North one trick in trumps, and East and
West mnde the rest-one trick in diamonds,
and one in spades, and three tricks in
trumps. The chief point of the play is
that North saved a trick by the trump
lead, for if he had opened his clubs orig
inally East would have ruffed the second
round with one Cd his little truInps
The trump attack does not fully suoceet
in its primary ob5ece-that of exhaastina
trumps for the sake of the clubs-but it is
not for that reason a fRi1ura- 1t does,
indeed, partially succeed by exhausting
ths trumps of the weaker adversary.
It should be borne in mind In general,
in case of apparent failure of an opening,
that just because your initial plan, on
which ths opening is based, docs not
work, - it does not follow that the plan

corner of the court room when an old
soldier with a countenance unmiSta.k-

motioned to John, and the latter went
to him. The man was Shabbily dressed
and looked hungry. John was forth
flying himself against any handouts
when the man said:
John, do you remember me? I'm
John Duffy and you and I fought in
the war together. Do you mind the
time our standard bearer was shot
DOWN.
Coyne recognized his old comrade and
he was pleased at seeing him.
Yes, and l remember that you pick

COMSTOCK'S AGENT GONE,
Anthony's Ingratitude Has Probably
Driven Him to Suicide.

New York, Jan. 27.-Ten days ago ST.
mon Joel was a witness against Artist
Sherer, whom he accused of having
painted indecent pictures upon shells.
joel was acting as an agent of the So
ciety of the Prevention of Vice,of which
Anthony Comstock is president. The
case suddenly collapsed. Public senti-
ment was all with the poor artist. 1t
was proved by Sherer that he had been
tempted to paint the pictures by Agent
Joel. His poverty had made him ready
to do anything
Comstock saw how the case was go
ing He suddenly changed his attitude
and sWore out a warrant against his
agent, Joel. Last night two postal
cards with Joel's handwriting upon them
We're mailed in this city. One was di-
rected to his sister in Jersey City, the
other to Mr.. Comstock, his former en-
ployer. The one to Comstock was as
follows:
Mr.. Comstock: When you receive
this l will be dead s J."
The president of the Society for the
prevention of Vice recognized the writ
ing of his old agent, and was very ex-
cited over the message.
Joels sister believes that he has car
ried out his threat and is dead by this
time.
