homely funny story. The anecdote was
Lincoln's safety-yalve, When the cares,
great and petty, which weighed upon his
soul became almost too harassing for en-
duranee. he would tell of some homeiy
happening which he had seen during his
boyhood, in Illinois, and the circle OF
grave-faced men about him would laugh
and feel better for the philosophy thus
indirectly set forth. Lincoln was rather
apt to illuminate his public addresses IN
the same way but more often he would
give forth some epigram, more witty than
humorous, as when he said of Young
America:
HE knows all that can possibly be known,
inclines TO believe in spiritual rappings, ana IS
the unquestioned inventor OF Manifest Destiny
This was not very respectful TO the pub
lie thus satirized. but it was much needed
enlightenment, and could not possibly
have been put in such brief and telling
way without the humorous touch.
Lincoln, IngersolI, Beecher. and every
other great orator produced by the ATneri-
can nation, had in some degree sense Oh
humor, and Webster, whose peculiar IN
teIIect always inclined more to rhetoric
than to philosophy, is perhaps the only
great orator who did not make his points
more telling by the geniality of hunaor or
the pungency of sarcasm. 1t has remain
ed for Beveridge TO discover that fun IS
unsuited to public speaking He would
apparently have all American orators
fashion themselves after the pattern OF
the owl. and retire to the gloomy recesses
of some forest, coming forth only at night
to utter portentous and calamity-bod-

HANNA's BAD HALF HOUR.
The Senator Hootet at the Chicago
stock EsyErtEs.

CHICAGO, Oct 15.-Senator Hanna talk
ed to a large audience in the Twenty-ninth
ward Saturday night and had a bad half
hour with his hearers who did not relish
a great deal he said. There were scores of
Democrats in the hall who asked pointed
questions. For an hour and a half the
Senator waged a verbal battle with his ad-
versaries, and when he limped to his seat
be was all but broken down. 4 severe
cramp in his left leg caused him great pain
and he had to be assisted to his carriage
The last half hour of Senator Hanna's
time on the platform was devoted TO an
swering questions fired at him by persons
in the crowd. When he arrived, some men
in the crowd set up shout and jeer The
Senator was introduced and the uproar be-
gan in earnest. Aften ten minutes wait
ing the din subsidized long enough for the
Senator to tell the crowd that If necessary
he would stay until midnight TO make his
speech.
IF you fellows fear the truth just keep
on he shouted.
After half an hour of jeeFing, during
which time the Senator made himself
heard about twenty times, pause Of three
minutes came.
The Senator said:
TONS
Voice: Not here in the Stock Yards
IF any man in this audience wants to
discuss the issues OF this campaign with
me he is invited to come TO the platform. y
Shouts for Bryan caused an interruption
Senator H2nDa turned on the shouters and
assaiIed the Democratic Presidential can
didate.
How about the seamen you threw out
of jobs?'' shouted a nan in the audience.
- defy anyone to prove that l pay my
seamen any but the highest wages; they
| are all working. too
You cut down the pay of your long
shoremen in Cleveland"

You're a scab," shouted the disturber.

ed the man.

III HONOR OF BANCROFT.
The dwelling OF a Tablet in Mem
cry OF tne Historian.

WORCESTER. Mass, Oct. f5.-A tab
let Of bronze on granite cube, marking
the site of the century-old home of
George Bancroft. Americas most famous
historian. was unveiled in Worcester on
the oDe hundredth anniversary OF his
birth Simple. but hearty. incidents
marked the ceremony. Admiral Sampson
was there. the guest CT the city. ana the
orators were General James Grant WI
son. of New York. a lifelong friend of
Bancroft, and the Rev. Dr.. Edward Ever
EFT Hale of Boston.
The old house had been razed, and, near
at hand, is the newer home OF Frederick
H. Daniels. 1t was in front CT this that
the simple exercises took place, and
when the American flag was pulled from
the little monument the words on the tab
let flashed in the Autumn sun;
Twenty feet east of this stone stood
the house in which George Bancroft. his
torian of America, son of Aaron and Lu-
cretia Chandler Bancroft, was born, Oc-
tober 9, 1900. Placed by citizens of Wor-

RexeridEe or oratorx.

Senator Beveridge, the profound, has
again expressed himself, this time on the
subject Of public speaking. He says:
'-It-is remarkable thing that there is neither
Vii hunor in any OF the immortal speeches
that have fallen from the lips OF To find
a joke in Webster would be an offence. The
only things which IngersOn that will
live are his grafton at his brothers grave and
his famous. The Past Rises Before Me Like Il
Dream. But in neither OF these productions Of
This genius of testers is )there single trace OF
wit, There is not a funny sally in all Burke's
speeches. Lineoln's Gettysburg address, his first
and second inaugurals, his speech beginning the
Douglas campaign and his Cooper Union address
In New York are, perhaps, the ONLY utterances
of his that Will endure Yet this greatest of
story-telers since Aesop did not adorp or deface
one OF these great deliVerances with story or any
fO.m OF humor.'
The idea of Senator Beveridge seems TO
be that humor is out of place in a public
speech. OF course it is, at funeral, or
on any occasion when people are in no
mood for laughter and are concerned with
matters too serious to make wit anything
but an impropriety. But that does not
change the fact that nearly all great
American orators have been great hImor-
lists, and that if Lincoln did not see fit
to tell funny stories On the occasion of
MS Gettysburg speech, or Ingerson did
not for obvious reasons make joke at
his brothers grave, both these nen spiced
their other public utterances with cpl
gram and anecdote full of the dry humor
which is peculiarly American. 1t is an
American characteristic to make light of
most serious things, except when good
taste dictates that one refrain from Jest
ing in order not to hurt the feelings of
others.
LdncoIn's pet form OF humor. as all the
world knows, was the anecdote. and ne
sometimes employed it at times when peo-
pie of an owIish habit of mind thought he
ought to have been serious. When man
has thrown his whole soul into the effort
to obtain the postmastership of Squash
Vile, or to have his brothers first wffe's
sisters son appointed to a place in
the army, it must be a little discourag-
ing to have such a matter discussed with
he assistance of a particularly pithy and

NOTES OF THE CAMPAIGN.

a Titanic StrugsIe.-With the COM
ing of Mr.. Bryan tomorrow there will
begin the greatest political struggle in
New York taat this generation of Ameri-
cans perhaps will ever witness in any
part of the country. 1t will be largely
a battle of the masses against the best
equipped and most powerful machine any
party has ever constrUcted-a combina-
tion OF the Platt machine and the Hanna
machine backed by the combined cor
porate wealth of the State and the tre-
mendous power of the Administration.
There is no use to attempt to disguise
the fact that the Democratic managers
regard the situation as desperate. Ae
cordingly, it is evident that they are go
ing to resort to the most heroic methods.
The Unexpectedly heavy registration is
surprise 10 the managers of both parties,
and each side naturally is claiming it as
a good omen The plain truth seems to
be that the registration has amazed both
parties, and not until some safer tests
than have yet been applied can any posi-
tive statement be made as to the mean
ing of this great rush of the people to
qualify as voters. Mr.. Bryan will spend
five days in the State this week, and will
make fifty or more speeches, beginning
at Madison Square Garden tomorrow night
and winding UP at Buffalo Saturday night.
If the New Workers turn out to see and
hear Bryan all along his route in proper
/ ton to the registration thus far enrolled
| it will be sign that the issues which he
stands for have stirred the people more
| than have the efforts in that line which
have been made for three months by the
| party managers. And If Mr.. Bryan devei-
| cps this fact, II cannot be denied that
| that most dreaded of all factors to the po-
| litical managers, 'the silent vote large
| ly will be cast for him. The Democratic
standard bearer is expected to lay the
| ground work on his tour of the State for
| the operations Of a machine quite as well
| equipped for effective service as is the
machine of the opposition. 1t is known
/ that Richard Croker and his associates
who control the Democratic organization
! in New York at present have their ma
| chine hair triggered and ready to respond
| promptly to the touch. In every large GEN.
| ire of the State this machine work will be
| begun as soon as Mr.. Bryan has aroused
| the populace by his magnetic oratory. Ii is
| believed that the big registration in all
| the upstate cities and towns is due to
the preliminary work of the Croker or
! ganizatiou.
