In the hist of baby show winners

there were some errors. Annie May,
not Annie May Manning, was the one
that won the prize as prettiest girl
baby. Juanita Belle Burton won the
prize for the prsttiest girl baby under
one year. instead of Juanita May Bell,
and Gus Bertram Simmern1acher, not
Bertrand Summoch, won the prize for

instead of Earl Desmond. There may
be chance for some more prizes.
Will there be a consolation baby
show? We'll, everyone but the late
judges want one, and they want 1t
badly. Yesterday Managers Buckley

eyed parents who We're to be counted
among the unfortunates who, despite
the fact that they were certain that
their offspring were worthy of first
prizes in all classes, yet didn't get
them. These parents wanted another
trial. Then wanted less babies, less con-
fusion and less previous prize winners,
and they knew that the results would
be different So there you are What
will the food show managers do?
What will we do?" said Manager
buckley late yesterday. why give
them all one more chance, OF course.
We only regret that there were not

To tell the truth, while we had III
entries We only looked for about one
half that number of babies to show up
last Tuesday; and well, they all came.

blame those judges for long inspections
and deliberation? Why Mrs. Cross
and her confreres were so upset by the
magnitude of the task of passing Judg-
ment on so many pretty babies that
they wanted to fly from the hall after
half an hours inspection. They saw sew

WHERE ARE THE ORATORSf

1t was formally announced few weeks ago by
the enterprsing and hopeful statesmen who have
assumed the task Of electing Mr.. William Jen-
nings Bryan President in 1900 that the first step
in that campaign would be taken Immediately
in the organization of what was called "Na-
tional Bureau of Volunteer Speakers" with head
quarters in Washington. The purpose of this
proceeding was to organize and maintain silver
clubs in every county in the United States. This
was to be done by volunteer speakers, who pre-
paratory to entering upon the work should be
examined as to their fitness, and who would be
expected to make monthly reports Of their prog
ress to the Washington headquarters. zone of
the incentives to active work. it was said, would
be "a roll Of honor to be made up of workers
achieving the best results and place upon
this, il was gravely stated, would be "the strong

"Democratic candidate for President in 1900"
Mr.. Bryan himself was to be the custodian of
the roll Of honor In letter signifying his
acceptance of this delicate but highly rcspon-
sible position he expressed his most cordial ap-
prevail of the plan and of the sentiment it en-
bodied. that THE honors of victory must be

Of the office into which the millions of oppressed
toilers desire to induct him. but It seemed at
least to inspire Mr. Bryan himself with fresh
courage. Now that nearly one entire month Of
the three in which the 1900 speakers were to
be put in the field has passed. We venture to in

lie how The scheme Is getting on. So far we
can learn only one volunteer speaker has yet
