MRS, HOWARD KINGSCOTE,


thetically remarked, she needed the mon
ey, being then overwhelmed with debt
and paying 60 per cent to a Jermyn
street usurer.
This little incident was followed by the
bankruptcy of Lord Byron the past sum-
mer. His failure was due to the fact
that he had accommodated" Mrs.
Kingscote with $2JO,OOO, and the details
of the transaction were brought out in
court. AS in the case Of the beer lord,
Mrs. kingscote felt she was not to blame.
She wrote to Lord Byron-and her letter
was admitted in testimony-that he by
ron) is 1.-THE biggest cad as well as the
biggest idiot in England.'
This strong statement, the lady amia-
bly, pointed out, was subStantiated by the
facts. When Colonel Kingscote was APP
pointed to his present position, the Ques-
ton arose as to where and how the
'Kingscotes should buy and furnish
house. Mrs. Kingscote, in the emergen-
cy, turned to her friend. Lord Byron, a
collateral descendent Of the poet, and ex-
planned the situation. She reckoned that
100000 for the house, $4,000 for the
furniture and margin Of $lI0, 900 would
lie sufficient.
In soliciting the $25O.OOO Mrs. Kings
cote supplemented her destinations with
Il great money making scheme advanced
by DR.. Kingscote, her husbands brother.
DR.. kinsscote, she said, had invented
new material for the manufacture of
boots which would last forever and BAN
ish corns from the feet Of the earth. 1t
was made Of potato pa"ings, cost moth

A writer in a New York pa

A writer in a New York pa
per, who combines humor with
a keen understanding of politi-
cal affairs, has perpetrated a
joke on civilian Joyless Bry-
an" which will no doubt have
been as extensively published
as McKinley's Thanksgiving
proclamation before Thanks
giving arrives. 1t is as follows:
To the Bryanites of the
United States: President Nc
Kinley having had the effrontery
with the obvious intent of hurt
ing my feelings-to appoint
the 3Oth day of November a day
of general thanksgiving" 1
hereby call upon all Bryanites
to disregard his proclamation
and to spend the day in fasting
and humiliation. What have
we Bryanites to be thankful for,
| should like to know?
The country is not on it's way
to the dogs. All, no. The labor
ing man is laughing and grow
ing fat. Capital is finding
abundant fields for investment.
The farmer. prospecting as never
before, is tearing down his
barns in order that he may
build greater ones. The rail
roads are suffering from car
famine because of the tremend-
ols business which it has given
them to haul. The mill wheels
are turning, the FORCES are blaz
ing, the spindles are singing,
the dinner pals are full, the
mortgages are being lifted, the
deposits in savings banks are
increasing, financial panics are
conspicuous by their absence,
the sheriff's flag has been hauled
down, the animal known as
wolf at-the door has fl ed the
continent, and Uncle Sam, day
by day, is dancing the jig of
happy content to the music of
the hum of industry. It looks
the same way in the purely
political field. Sixteen to one
has been smashed to pieces like
4 potter's vessel by the irresist-
IDLE logic of events. Goebel of
Kentucky is in a bad way,
Croker and Hill have had a
rancorous falling out in New
York, the Ohio coroners have
got their professional eyes upon
John Mclean and I am not feel
ing very well myself.
For these reasons, and sim
liar ones, I, William J. Bryan,
leader of the Bryanites, do
hereby name Thursday, tn.
Both day of November next, as
a day of Gloomy Forebodings,
to be observed as such by all
our people on the continent and
by all our fellow-workers
against the Star Spangled Ban
ner out in Luzon; and I advise
that on that day the impreca-
tory Psalms. shall be read in all
Bryan clubs and that the flags
shall be displayed at half mast
above our club houses. And I
further advise that On that day
we abstain from turkey and par
take only of crow and other
funeral baked meats.
In witness whereof I have
raised my voice and caused my
seal of silver to be affixed.
(Signed.)
