OF Ohio.

Columbus, Ohio, October 16.-Not since
the great Blaine demonstration In 1884
has this city been so crowded with visi-
TORS as it is tonight, the occasion of the
appearance here of Governor Roosevelt
Inc speeches made to large audiences

vocal organs nor did he show any evil
dence of fatigue when he was introduced

The Roosevelt special arrived here at
7,30 and for two hours the Governor rode
in a great parade which was more than
two hours passing given point. When
Governor Roosevelt rose to speak he was
given such an enthusiastic greeting that
for five minutes he could not make bis
voice heard In his endeavors to restore
order. The Governor will leave CoIum bus
tomorrow morning at z. 80 for his second
day In Ohio.
Tomorrow night he will speak in CIeye
land and at noon Thursday he will arriv,

RUSSIA is WITH Us.

Washington, October 16 The cable
dispatch from ST. Petersburg indicating
that Russia's attitude in China viii.
Os independent of the concert of the
powers, caused no surprise among otfic-
ials here. 1t was noted when the aggres-
sive military movement was begun b{
Germany and the expedition against
Pao Ting Flu started that Russia was
among the powers which did not join IN
the movement. The dispatch from ST
Petersburg is looked upon as merely an
other step similar to that taken when
Russia withheld support from the Pac
Ting Flu expedition and other aggres
sive military moves. Moreover, 1t is re.
garded as quite in consonance with tbf
pacific tendencies OF this government
which have been directsG all along tc
securing a settlement by dipIolnatls

Hazleton, Pa, October 16.-The report
that Frank Pardee, manager of the
Calvin Pardee & Co., colliery at Gran

troops into Luzerne county, is not ex
aotly correct. Mr.. Pardee tonight denied
chat he had done so, but said he ana
Gov, Stone had talked on the advisabili-
ty OF having soldiers in this region.
This was an exceedingly quiet day
around the headquarters OF the United
Mine Workers. President Mitchell said
he had received no communication OF
even an intimation that the operators
would accept the proposition by the con

mating ex-President Harrison and ex-
Senator Gray as mempers of The Hague

attention of foreign governments who
are making inquiries through their
representatives here as to the steps taken

6hat the American Initiative Will esuIt

Interested. AS far as can be learned
none Of the foreign governments has

come when Democrats will fall to exnress
their sympathy for those who are strug-
CLING for larger measure OF freedom and
the establishment of a government by

Webster Davis was the next speaker.

Toledo was introduced. Ths four or five

New York, October 16.-The crowd
that surged about the open air stand at
Madison avenue and gath street may
have numbered 90, 600 and. there was not
one in that crowd who cared to hear any
one else but Bryan, The most successful
speaker failed to draw attention. It was
shortly after O'Clock when the cavaIcade
heading the Bryan party rode down Madi-
son avenue to the stand. The ovation to
the candidate was deafening. Mr. Bryan
said:
Mr.. Chairman, ladies and gentlemen:
You can read in the morning papers
what 1 have said but have said enough
and you have read enough to know the
Issues ana my opinions in regard to
them.''

Senator Mackey was speaking but as soon
as the crowd recognized Bryan, it rose to
its feet andTcheered for several minutes.
Richard Croker who accompanied Mr..
Bryan, took seat on the rear of the plat
form while the candidate went to the
front and acknowledged the greeting.
When the cheering continued for couple
of minutes he raised his hand to COM
mand silence. AS soon as he was able to
speak, he began and spoke almost ex-

Chang was a loyal adherent of the EN-.

two years ago, Chang was banIsbed to
Nebradeo, but through thu intervention
OF the American and British ministers
his punishment was commuted to banisb

Dowager, taking advantage of the Iata
reign of terror at Pekin and knowing
Chang's influence with the Enperor or
dered his execution by decapitation.
Chang was considered by those familiar
with Chinese affairs as one of the ablest,

"The formation of the Hospital Aid
Society was the outgrowth of visits
that had been made to the hospital
wards. The ladies who minister to the
suffering observed that recoveries We're
slow; that the men seemed depressed,
and that they grew listless and indif-
fereat. A careful study of this feature
convinced us that inconsistencies was
the basis for this condition. My at
tention was drawn to this when big
brawny fellow from Oregon, shot
through the right chest, said: Mrs.
Lawton, you do not know how nice it
is to have some one come to see you
when you are sick. You don't know
what these visits mean to men who
are far from home. l am homesick
for my home and my country, and
these pale faces fill me with despair.
That solved the mystery. Heartsick-
ness caused them more mental anxiety
than did the pain that their wounds
gave. The human heart Is the same
the world over. and when it feels
neglected, the suffering. whether real
or imagined, is increased This grows
more acute when the sufferer is sur
rounded by stumps of arms and
legless frames or other evidences of
the ravages of Mauser bullets"
