BRYAN and Silver in 1900.

Cleveland CO.,, March Ex-senator
II. NJ. Teller Of Colorado was asked
what in his judgment would be the
issue of the next Presidential cam
paign.
Il think there is no doubt replied
Senator Teller, that the Democratic
party will make the financial question
the issue"
"Who will be the Democratic Presi-
Dental nominee?"
Undoubtedly Mr.. Bryan will be the
choice of his party" promptly replied
the Senator.
In regard to w. J. Bryan's contro-
versy with Perry Belmont, Senator
Teller said:
Il think Mr.. Bryan did exactly
right in taking the position he did.
Those fellows are not Democrats. They
are Republicans masquerading under
Democratic colors. They opposed Mr..
Bryan in 1896, saying his election
would e~ndanger the nation 5 welfare,
and he did perfectly right in declining
to accept their invitation."

A CORRECT VETO.

However necessary the calling of a
Constitutional Convention may be to
til S State, and the APPEAL believes
th,t the people would vote to call
such a convention, no one with any
idea of the rules governing legislative
bodies, a object to the course taken
by the Governor in vetoelng the Con
sti,utional Convention bill. The his
Of of the bill showed tht it was
be- ten in the Assembly. The history
reals: Lost. Ayes IS, nays -, alb
sert So This was on the Sth.
there was no notice of re-considera-
ton, but the history of the bill fur
ther shows that it was returned to
the Senate as a lost bill and by the
SCI ate sem back to the House where,
on he 9th, it was reconstructed and
pas ed.
Once lost in the House, and no
notice of reconsideration given, it
was dead beyond recall, and after the
Ser lte had received it as a defeated
Ser tie Bill, that body had no right
to ] turn it to the Assembly,
Liam attempt should be made to
convene a Constitutional Convention
on such a foundation, any taxpayer
who did not desire to see the State
put to the expense of a convention
could cite the matter to the Supreme
Court and dispose Off in short order
upon the history of the bill as re-
corded on its face.

The worlds fair mania has gone to
an extreme, If it keeps up the princi-
pal business of the people will be pre-
pairing for such exhibitions. There are
"a great number scheduled for the next
four or five years. This country has a
number of a somewhat international
character in process of organization,
while europe is also in the business on
a large scale. The Paris exposition
comes next year and Glasgow will fol
low in 1901. 1t looks very much az
thong the thing was being o%verdone:
the public will eventually get tired OF
them and turn their ba ks upon them.

A correspondent of literature sends
an interesting anecdote of Balzac to
that journal: Leon Gozian used to re-
late how he met Balzac one day on the
Boulevard DIES Capucines dying with
hunger" The novelist Insisted on tax
ing GoGian to confectioner who sold
macaroni patties. Forgetting his hun
ger, Balzac plunged into an apprecia-
ton of Cooper's Lake Ontario" new
ly appeared. Gozian noticed that the
shop attendant, an English girl, had
heard him address Balzac by name and
was gazing at the author as though
fascinated. She was astounded pres
emily by the appetite Of genius for
macaroni patties, which disappeared
by couples.
"How much do owe your asked
Balzac.
Nothing, NJ. Balzac," said the Eng.
fish girl firmly.
Baltic was nonplused for a moment,
then he pushed his precious copy of
Lake Ontario" into the girls hands
saying, II can never sufficiently regret
madamoiselle, that did not write that
book"

Fowl That Won a Battle.

A singular story is told of a gallant
cock whose moral influence at a criti-
cal moment during the battle Of st.
Vincent helped to save a British man
Of-war from the hands of the enemy.
The fowl in question formed part of
the live stock of the Marlborough, a
vessel which had suffered so severely
that her captain was considering the
ACCESSIBILITY of striking his flag The
ship was entirely dismasted, while the
chief officers had been carried below
severely wounded, and the crew, with
out anybody to cheer them up, were
beginning to grow sullen under the
heavy fire of the enemy, to which they
were hardly able to respond.
At this emergency shot struck the
coop in which the fowls were confined.
The only surviving occupant, a cock,
finding himself at liberty, futtered up
and perched himself on the stump OF
the mainmast and surveyed the scene
of carnage around him. Then, tapping
his wings in defiance, he began to crow
vociferously. He was answered by
three hearty and exhilarating cheers
from the crew, who all had a good
laugh, and, with spirits thus renewed
continued the action with vigor that
lasted until turn in the battle rescued
them from their tight Wash
ington Star.

they had been arranged expressly fol

He was equal to the lady whose
hostess showed her "a dish of water cress

chased, she stuck her hand in the dish

dressed with French salad dressing and
prepared to accompany the birds at the
meal -Louisville Times.

commands love and reverence. Yet how
few wear the mantle of age with dignity
Dim eyed, querulous of speech, hating in
step, childish in mind, they flag super
fiuous on the stage" dragging out the fag
end of life in a simple existence The Sc
cret of a healthy old age is healthy mid
die age. The man who takes care of his
stomach, who keeps his body properly
nourished, will find that the body does not
fail him in old age. The great value of
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
lies in the preservation of the working
power of the stomach and other organs of
digestion and nutrition. From this centre
is distributed the nourishment of the
whole body, the salt for the blood, the
lime for the bones, phosphates for the
brain and nerves A sound stomach
means sound man. A man who keeps
his stomach sound by the use of Golden
Medical Discovery" will wear the crown
OF gray hairs as BELTS monarch, with
dignity and ease.

SCENERY FOR A NEW PLAY
Its Preparation In Modern Theaters
an Interesting Process.

Its Preparation In Modern Theaters
an Interesting Process.
The preparation for new play, as
far as the scenery is concerned, is most
interesting. A complete model In min
iature is made, about the size Of one
of the German toy theaters seen in the
shops The picture is carefully painted;
the rocks, if there be any, and the
foliage are cut out, and all the details
are followed with no less thought than
when the real affair is attacked.
The work is done in water color,
mounted on pasteboard, and if the
scheme be an interior there are real
curtains in miniature, flights of steps,
and the hangings, all seriously worked
out. 1t is something that would de-
light the heart of a boy and furnish
him with endless amusement. These
models are kept until after the piece
is produced, and are then put away
ON shelves, alas! only to warp and be-
come covered with dust.
But the master painters work does
not end here by any means, for there
are lights to he arranged, since they
play an important part in the per-
Torrance and must be regulated by
the scheme of color; so there are long
conferences with electricians and many
discussions with the makers of glass
shades whereby the exact tints may be
obtained.
When every detail has been settled,
then the lieat acres Of canvas are
spread on the paint frames, and the
drawing is begun. Large china pots
are used for the colors. These are filled
with paints, which are mixed with
water and size, and enormous
brushes put the pigment on the can
vas. 1t is wonderful to watch the
artist, who dashes on the paint with
no apparent care and who has to work
fast to cover the surface before the
color dries, which it does quickly
