BRYAN'S PROTEST
Against Expansion Received
With Great Cheering in
Georgia.

The Hon. William ]. Bryan addressed
the GAINESVILLE Chautauqua at Barnes
vile, Ca, Tuesday. The crowd which
greeted him was enormous and his re-
ception enthusiastic. In introducing Mr.
Bryan, the Hon. Clark Howell, editor OF
the Atlanta Constitution and member
the National Democratic Committee
from Georgia, referred to the fact
that Georgia's delegation through one of
its members had presented Mr.. Bryan's
name for nomination at. the Chicago
convention. He referred to the last
Presidential campaign and predicted the
reaffirmation of the last Democratic plat
form by the next Democratic convention
and treated Mr.. Bryan's nomination as
foregone conclusion.
Mr.. BRYAN spoke of the celebration OF
the Fourth of July, which was more gen.
eral in all parts of the country than ever
before, and referred to the part the South
had shared with the North in sending
men to war against Spain. He claimed
only one purpose, and that was to find
out what was the best for this country
1t was impossible, he said, to discuss
public affairs as a nonpartisan. He was
again willing to place the issues before
the country on the plans laid down by
Thomas Jefferson. In closing his speech
the speaker took decided stand agains
expansion, and his words were received
with great cheering. Mr.. Bryan said:
Holding the Philippine Islands agains
the will of their inhabitants involves q
new departure in government. l do no
want as part of this nation people wh'
can not read the Declaration of indie
pendence. The doctrine of force lies be

Old and Young Come Together
and All Have a Glorious
Days Fun.
Music, Mirth and Dancing In
dulged in Until % Very
Late Hour.
The GARDEN THRONGED AT NIGHT.

The Fourth of July this year was an
ideal day, and was most fittingly cele-
brated by the Ancient Order of Hiber-
mans of Louisville at Lion Garden.
Early in the afternoon throngs of young
and old began to arrive, and the stream
kept up until the place was at one time
taxed to its utmost capacity. Promptly
at 4 O'Clock the Hibernian Knights, un-
der command of Capt. Joe Breen, formed
in line for their annual Fourth of July
exhibition drill. The Knights make as
fine an appearance as any military body
in the State, being nearly all stalwart
fellows, and when they moved, their
green and white plumes bowling to the
breeze, they were heartily cheered.
Great interest was felt in this drill by
their admirers, as the company will go to
the Boston convention next year, and
much is expected of them. Capt. Breen
put them through regular drill, follow
ed by a number of difficult evolutions,
each of which was warmly applauded.
The drill put up was surprise TO their
friends, and much of its success is due to
the admirable work and energy of Lieuts.
Jerry Hallihan and Arthur Campbell.
In the park an excellent band, with
Prof. Morbach, discoursed patriotic Irish
and American airs, while in the dancing
hall Ludwig's Union Band kept the
young folks tripping the light fantastic
to enchanting strains until a late hour
Throughout the garden were scattered
various games for the amusement of the
throng, and everything was done by the
various committees that would contribute
to its success. If there were any disap'
pointment it could not be placed upor
them, as they worked untiringly and
maintained the reputation of their ordel
in the celebration of our greatest ami
versary.
All of the divisions were represented
with the State and county officials pres
ent and large delegation from Division
aud the Ladies' Auxiliary of Jefferson
vile. The entire affair passed off pleas
antly, and was one of the most enjoyable
ever given.

County President Murphy deserves the
thanks of entire order. He did the work
of at least three men, and was good

STOVE EXPLODED.
Mrs. catharine D. Ruff Has Marrow Es-
cape From Serious Injury

Mrs. Catharine D. Ruff, who lives at
720 Dayton street, had a narrow escape
from being seriously in jured yesterday
afternoon on account of an explosion
of a kerosene stove which she was
using. Mrs. Ruff had been washing
and had attempted to place large tub
of water on the stove when an exp1o-
sion followed. The burning oil was
thrown all about the room and on the
clothes and body of Mrs. Ruff. Her
cries for help drew the attention of one
of the neighbors, who rushed into the
house and tearing a rug from the floor
she soon had the flames .extingt1fshed.
Mrs. Ruff was not seriously injured,
but was badly burned about the hands.
The stove which was the cause of the
accident was a total wreck. The acci-
dent was due to the use of inferior oil.
Ia the past few days several complaints
have been made of the fact that in
ferior oil is being sold in the city, and
it seems that the attention of the oil
inspector should be called to the matter
By the way, who is the oil inspector
for this county? He ought to take a
look into this matter and see to it that
no accidents of this kind happen from
the same cause again.
