PROSPEROUS BRYAN.
His Own Case a Striking Indication OF

Recently when William Jennings Bryan
was in Chicago he Was reported to have
said, well be willing to take the votes of
all the people who have not had their
share of prosperity and leave the Republi.

their share
In 1880 Mr., Bryan was elected to con.
gr1ss from the First Nebraska district un.
der the old apportionment. Before that
time he was n struggling attorney in Lin
coin, earning perhaps 81, 800 to $4,000 "A
year. lie served two terms in congress,
from which he retired in March, 1895, be.
cause under the rcapportionment, the first
district, in which he resided, had become
Republican. From this time until his
nomination Tor the presidency, he resumed
the practice OF his profession. From No.
vember, 1896, to date he is not known to
have more than one case in court, but for
four years he has been in great demand for
political addresses at so much per night.
Now for the bearing OF these facts on
Mr.. Bryan's fortunes and on his vote this
fall. Mr.. Bryan has resided in the Fifth
ward OF Lincoln ever since 1898. and the
following statement, taken from the yearly
returns made by him every year since,
shows the increase in his tangible possess

GREAT MANY
PENSIONS.
House Passed 100 Bills
Before Mr.. TaIbert
Blocks Business.

WASHINGTON, May 28.-The house
devoted two hours yesterday which be-
longed to the legislative day of Thursday
10 the continuation of the discussion Of
the Alaskan bill without completing it.
The session from noon until adjourns
ment was devoted under the rule to pri-
vate pension bills. Mr.. Talbert of South
Carolina, who abandoned obstructive tao
tics few weeks ago, was again In EVIL
dence. After 100 bills had been favora-
bly, acted upon by the committee of the
whole Mr.. Talbert blocked their passage
in the house with the point Of no quorum.
Among the bills favorably acted upon
were the senate bills to pension the widS
ow of the late Captain Gridley. who como
manded the Olympia in the battle of Ma
Mia, Mt $50 per month, the widow of the
late Commodore r. W. Meade at $40 per-
month and the widow Of the late General
NJ. +. Force of Ohio at $50 per month.
The latter case is very pathetic ono.
General Force was the Republican cam
didate for governor of Ohio in 1873, when
Allen was elected. Subsequently he wssl
minister 10 France. Since his death Mrsi
Force has fallen into destitute circum-
stances and is now engaged in truck
farming near Cincinnati.
Discussion Of the Spooner Philippine
bill was continued in the senate by Mr..
Morgan of Alabama.
Senator Pettigrew introduced a resoIu-l
ton calling upon the secretary Of war for
information as to the number of Flipinos
who have been killed in the Philippines
since Feb. S, 1898.

| SONS MURDER

West Chester, Pa. May 25.-I
the mystery Of Stella Morrison s
murder is to be cleared up quickly
no better move can be made than Il
track the movements of a big color
ed man who was seen near the farm
on Wednesday. He was ofthe type
which causes women's hearts to
beat fast with fear, the ideal of a
country tramp.
For days before the brutal kill.
ing of Mrs. Morrison this man had
frightened housewives for miles
around, but now he has dropped
out of sight. The farmers here.
about have decided that this color
ed man knows something about
the murder, and they are leaving
the authorities to prowl about in
their endeavor to secure evidence
against aged James Morrison, the
father-in-law. No one can convince
them tn at the old farmer could have
done this deed, so they have taken
it upon themselves to find the MUIR
derer.
Wood chopping and ploughing
have been set aside in the more ex-
citing occupation of amateur de-
ttctive work. Morning and after
noon workers in overalls and high
boots have journeyed in their light
wagons over the roads which wind
around and over the hills. Dis
tances have been calculated and
reports dovetailed together until a
strong circumstantial case has been
brought against the colored wand
erer. This is description d the
man upon which all are agreed:
He is between five feet and eight
incher and FIVE feet ten inches in
height; when questioned he gave
his age as 20 years, but looked to
be fully forty; his color is not very
pronounced black, and he is easily
distinguishable by a slight wlry
mustache. The man wore, when
seen on Wednesday, light brown
coat, the back Of which was bleach
ed by the sun. The elbows Of both
his sleeves were patched with
strips Of dingy black cloth which

ers. This outfit was topped off
with a well-worn brown SLOUGH hat,
which he wore we'll over his face.
His shirt was Of a mixed brown
and his shoes, which were
of unusual size, were run down at
the heels.
The wanderer was the ordinary
farm hand of the itinerant stamp,
seeking food, employment wher-
ever fate should lead him. A GER
tain depth Of chest and the pecu-
liar loose jointed walk proclaimed
the strength that had been gained
with this ak and the pitchfork.
This farm hand was first seen
by W. d. Mahon, who has black
smiths shop near West Chester.
Just about dusk on Tuesday the
colored man raped at the door of
house, and asked for
lodging. The blacksmith answer

DOVER, DEL, Oct 20, 1898.

It Is with great pleasure that can state
q few facts that trust may be some help
to Dr. Torbert Of Wilmington. MI. Daniel
Medford, of Annapolis, Md, came to my
house three weeks ago, with dreadful
sore limb; In fact 1t looked more like a
rotten limb than anything that could
compare it to. Mr. Medford has been a
terrible sufferer for the past 10 or IA years,
At times he has been compelled to keep
his bed for months. During this time he
has doctored with many good physicians
from Baltimore and Annapolis, receiving
no benefit and being told he could never
BIZ cured. Mr. Medford was under careful
treatment by DR.. Torbert for three weeks
and can truly say there has been most
wonderful change and improvement The
flesh Ia beginning to assume its natural
color. and am sure is on the way to a
permanent cure. Three weeks ago it
truly looked like a hopeless case.
