Mr.. BRYANNOT 4 SUCCESS
SAYS THE HON. HOIxE SMITH oNcR
CLEVELAND's SECRETARY
OF THE INTERIOR
SILVER MUST BE DROPPED
In Order to Make Hope for the Fu-
ture Possible, the Party Must
Regain Confidence of

smith, eX-secretary Of the interior during
President Cleveland's last term said To-
day in reference to Mr.. Bryan's express
ed intention of adher ing to the n-inci.
pies of the Chicago platform: at reere+
that Col. Bryan deems it proper to con-
t1nue at this time to defend the D.inci
pies of the Chicago platform.
He mas twice received as the nominee
or the Democratic party the iovaI SIM
port OF the Democrats of the South. The
last time he met with no opposition In
the South even for the nomination.
I disapproved the suggestion of reor
ganlzation of the party by certain per-
sons in the East. and l think Col Rrvan
is making a mistake. equal to that wr,ich
would have resulted from any serious
movement toward Eastern reorpaDiza
ton.
The Democratic party should stand
between the plutocrat and the socialist
as the party of the constitution and Of
the people. 1t should defend the rights
of persons and of property, and not he
led into attack upon. either
The South alone HIS remained stead
fast to the party. and sur senators. con
gressmen and people should assert their
rights for the present to speak for the
party.
MUST REGAIN THE VOTERS.
The party must regain the confidence
of the majority of the voters in New
York. Connecticut, New Jersey. Mary
land, Indiana and other states, by con-
vincing them that its policies will be wise
and conservative, protecting not only per-
sonal rights but also property rights.
while some of our bast men believed
four years ago that the unlimited coin
age of silver would be desirable to fur
nish larger supply OF currency, condi-
tons have changed, and I have heard
many of these men declare that with
the increased supply of gold they are
no longer in favor of pressing the silver
question. I believe Col. Bryan will find
a majority Of the former silver advocates
in the South unwilling to follow him
further. Those who, Ike myself, oppos-
ed the platform bat still voted for Col
Bryan after he was nominated, will nat
uralty join the former silver men who
do not intend to push this question. and
I do not believe Col. Bryan will find any
considerable number OF Southern states
with him again.
ANY effort to press him or his views
upon. the country will meet determined
opposition Col. Bryan is beloved for
his honest intentions, but as party
leader he has not bean a success

INITIATION FRANKS.
Varsity Girls of Syracuse Have Il
Lark With Black Cats.

Syracuse Journal.
Fraternity limitations on University Hill
are supposed to be entirely secret, but
occasionally a story OF some of the pre-
liminary prepare tons to the final cere-
monies will leak out. certain amount
of fun is included on the limitations of
a few of the fraternities, and the fun
for the girls of the sorority in question
recently took strange course, but it was
still funny, although more funny for the
neophytes than for the fnitators.
The story was let out by some careless
talking of one Of the girls. The same
girl Will probably not tell another, and
inasmuch as the name of the sorority is
not divulged the story does no harm.
There are six girls fraternities on the
hill. They are commonly known as
sororities, although some of them are
technically fraternities. The upper class
girls of this sorority were clearly out
witted, SO the story goes.
The candidates were crestfallen, tor
their prospective sisters and tod with
much solemn impressiveness that their
chances for being taken within the sacred
bonds were decidedly doubtful. They
would be obliged to show their desire py
performing a very difficult task.
The candidates. were crest faQen for
their hopes had been high, but they had
not expected TO be sent away to climb n
glass tree to hunt for the white raven
eggs, or TO climb seven high mountains
and swim seven deep rivers to And a
beautiful prince. -ssz
When. however, they were told that
their entrance depended upon their bring
ing each a black cat without one white
hair in its fur, and to place it in a
basket on the steps of the chapter house
before a certain hour their fears were
somewhat subdued. THE time In which
to work was short the city was strange
and friends were few; but there was
hope. sl5
One of the freshman girls of this
sorority is clever Her head helped the
others out a pending disaster. The
black cats were secured within forty
three minutes. The remainder of the
six hours allotted for the search for the
black cats was spent in a general spree,
which ended with the first freshman BAN
quet.
Promptly at the hour, the candidates
filed to the chapter house steps, and in
the twilight carefully deposited their
cats, each in a little basket of similar
appearance. The upper class girls peep
ed from behind the curtains and patted
one another on the back to think that
they had a delegation which could find
black cats in six hours
When the candidates had gone they
stealthily crept OUT but when they pick
ed up the baskets the oats seemed to
lack weight. Eagerly the upper-class
girls crowded around each basket to find
not cunning little kitten, with big
black eyes, but seven numbers of the
popular magazine. the Black Cat, with
out white hair.
The joke was on the sorority girls, but
they were content after initiation, TO

The Oldest visiting Card.

The state archives of Venice are said
to possess the Oldest visiting card of

leaving aside the probable use Of such
articles for some thousands of years in
China. Glacomo Contarini professor at
the University of Padua, sent the card in

laudabie custom of leaving such little
cards, with their name and place or orr

The count discloses many rad cal
changes. especially in the cattIe-raising
regions of the state. In one precinct in
Antelope county in 1886 the vote stood 45
for Bryan TO 2 for Mckinley. This year
Mckinley got 40. Bryan none. The great
gains all came from the farming districts
of the state. In one precinct in Bryan's
home county, the farming districts gave
Mckinley IA majority this year, while
Bryan carried them four years ago by
nearly 800.
The middle-road Populists emulated the
gold Democrats of four years ago and
voted for Mckinley direct. Barker re-
ceived only little over a thousand votes
in the state, while the middIe-road vote
on the other officers was more than
double that number. The Prohibitonsts
more than doubled their vote, and Bryan
suffered most from this.

The diamonds Jewett brought back with
him are octahedron and rhombic in shape
and are very clear stones. He sold many
of the larger ones before he left South

1t is the intention of Jewett to return
TO South Africa next year, and to search
for diamonds in the Drakenberg range
above the place where the pocket Was
found. The place is not in the diamond
fields, but he believes that in finding tire
pocket he made a discovery that may
lead to the opening of richer fields than
those that are now being worked.
