Mr. PERRY BELMONT says he eau
not support MI. Bryan in 1900. Well,
no body supposed he would. He didn't
do go in 1896, when his support was
needed more than it will be next year.
His brother, however, more respected
man, has no difficulty in supporting
Mr.. Bryan; indeed that he delights to
do so is proved by the fact that he has
just contributed twenty-five thousand
dollars to the national democratic com
mittee, which is conducting Mr. Brysn's
campaign.

treated the wealthy society sci to
remarkable display of money without
spending it. The musicians struck up
the Austrian national air during the
dance and the Count was very much
affected at hearing the piece so far
from home He accordingly wakedup
near the musicians and just Is
they were about to finish he took
a roll Of so bills from his pocket
and threw them at the members OF tho az
chestrs. They naturally got very much ag-
tated at having real money falling np2n
their shoulders and the music stopped fora
minute till tho musicians discovered that
they were really not dreaming and after
they had gathered up the long greens ihcy
finished their number. A little later The
count became greatly pleased again at one o!
the airs, but this time, not having bills OF
the proper denomination, he tore those That
he had in halves, and threw the pieces At the
players. They mendcd the bills, chsnged
them for smaller denominations ard these
ttey divided, just as the count INTENDED they
should.

TUESDAY EVENING, SEPT. 10, 1899

GENERAL OTIS is monarch OF all ne
surveys and his right there is none 10
dispute. He has, of his own sweet WILL
prohibited the Chinese, the people VINO
live on the mainland opposite
the Philippines, from landing on
their shores, and now, though
the Filipinos have notified SPAN
that she can have their sick and dis
abled Spanish prisoners if she will send
after them, he refuses to let her do so.
10 doing the latter he is following the
example of General Grant, who refused
to accept sick Union prisoners from the
South, lest the saving of their rations
would leave more for the starving Con-
federates. But war for humanity,
civilization and Christianity" is "glor-
ious."

MAJ S. r. JONES, U. :. A, who has
just returned from years service in
the Philippines, says an army of fifty
thousand men will be required in those
islands for ten years. AS each soldier
costs the government $500 8 year, it
would seem, if the Major be right, and
most other people think he is, that the
Philippines will cost great deal more
than they'll come to.

who were taken to Boston and made

mirers of the two specially referred to
are talking of making them their repre-
sentatives at the next national election.
If they shall be, they would receive a

THE STRIKE of the street car en-

declared of, and such of the strikers
whose places have not been filed VIII
be taken back. Several lives were lost
during the strike, much property been
destroyed, and many people put to
great and unnecessary expense, trouble
and Inconvenience, and the strikers
have not gained single point, but
have lost every cent OF their wages
which they will never make up, and'
besides, have dissipated the good feeling
that should subsis- between them and
their employers. But, all the same
they will strike again next summer.
