1t VIII BE Warm From the Opening
of the Campaign.
CHICAGO, July 13.-Richard Yates will
open the Republican campaign in Illinois
Aug. s, when he will begin what his
friends say will be one of the most re-
markable political tours ever made in
this state. He will be on the stump
three months. According to present
plans, he will spend the last three days
of every other week in. Cook county,
thus passing two days in each of the
seven congressional districts of the
county.
Samuel Alschuler, however, will be
quite as active as his rival and will seek
to engage him in joint debates. The Re-
publican managers are aware of Mr.. AL
schuler's prowess on the platform and
up to date there are no prospects of a
meeting between the two candidates
Mr.. Alschuler was in the city during the
day and will remain here several days
II am growing more confident every hour
that Illinois will go Democratic this
fall" said he. "Since the Democratic ma
tional convention I have been resting on
my oars at Aurora, but I have been in
close touch with Democrats all over the
state and am particularly gratiied with
the reports I hear. In my own county,
Kane, where there were heavy national
Democratic defections in 1896, fully nine
tenths of the national Democrats are
now back in the fold and many more are
on the way. My advices from other
parts Of the state show the same condi-
tons to prevail. The name of Steven
son will make votes in every county in
the state
The German-American Republican
voters of the Twenty-second ward have
organized, with Philip Schumacher as
president, and c. G. Warneke as secre-
tary. Nine members were chosen to rep
resent the club in the German-American

Vice Consul Mclean Reports In

WASHINGTON, July 13.-Vice Consul
Mclean has made report from Yoko-
hama on the subject of the importation
OF American -four into Japan. He says
the use Of -four is not confined to the
large cities of Japan, but is becoming
common throughout that country. He
speaks Of three or four American-built
-four mills, the largest having a capacity
Of 150 barrels a day, that are now help
ing to supply Japan with flour
There are many small native mills Of
hand and water power throughout the
country, but their product is of a coarse
character and they do not compete to
any extent with imported stocks.
American wheat also is being import
ed into japan and a considerable amount
Of flour made from 1t Is being sold there.
The demand for flour throughout the
Orient Is rapidly increasing, the best
points Of consumption at present being
Russian possessions In Northern China
and Eastern Siberia.

LINCOLN. Neb., July 1s-The date,
Aug. 8, on which he is to receive official
notification of his nomination by the
Democrats is satisfactory to Mr.. Bryan.
1t is doubtful If he will leave Lincoln
much before that time, though he does
not himself know just what his pro-
gramme will be. He does not, however,
expect to make any speeches in advance
of his notification.
Mr.. Bryan isespending much of his time
in his library with his stenographer,
working on material for the campaign.
Charles A. Towne has been with him part
of the time, which leads to the belief that
the Minnesotan will be one Of the most
active lieutenants in the campaign

DID THE LORD HEAR ARIGHT3

Father Edward Soren. of Notre Dame,
brought with him on his return from
one OF his visits to his native place,
Paris. France, native teacher Of
French for the Academy Of st. Mary du
Lac. She was charming sister in her
gestures and manners. and was anxious
to learn the English language. She
asked one of the American sisters to
teach her the Lords Prayer in English.
This American sister did SO with a
great deal Of relish and apparent sport.
And when the dear little Persistence
could repeat her Pater Noeter il the de-
lightful language used in this country,
she went to the good old priest, Father
Soren, and tod hin in French that she
desired he should hear her say her
prayers in English. Graveiy granting
her request, the amiable mao listened
with a sober face and a gentle light in
his eyes while the little sister repeated
with esrnestness the ditty of:
"Old Brother Ben shot his goose and killed
his hon."
telling her beads with the same deyo-
ton she did in saying "Our Father" in
French. At the conclusion Of her
prayer Father Soren said:
That is we'll done. sister. You have
acquired the language with great ease
and facility. But, pray. tell me who
was the sister that taught you so beau
tifully?" She quickly gave the sisters
name, and asked in French:
"But, my father, do you think the
Lord heard me Alright, not being accus-
toned to me IN English?"
"Yes. yes, my child; the Lord has
fully understood your prayer. 1t is not

FRENCH CONVENT.
HELEN C. HARDWOOD.

The silver tray Of exquisite design,
ope OF the few pieces that had been
saved for Madame Roubere during the
invasion OF the Prussians, was placed
upon the table with great admiration by
Clemence. On it were small glasses
half full Of the famous Chartreuse, Of
which Clemence, madame's maid for
fourteen years, was the artist. An old
monk from the monastery Of Chartreux
had confided the secret Of its making to
her many years before. She had prom
ised never to reveal the secret and she
never had.
Madame Roubere's Chartreuse was
highly appreciated by her friends, but
she served it only on occasions or special
moment. such az an anniversary Of the

The thing which impressed me most
Of all about the big men l saw in the
delegations, was the fact that they had
nothing Of the air OF big guns about
them. They all looked and acted like
every day, ordinary men whom one
meets every day about town. They
were not, as rule, distinguished look
ing. They wore ordinary clothes, ordi-
nary hats. smoked ordinary cigars. had
ordinary bald or frowzly heads. and
nearly all had ordinary round, well-ied
abdomens. When one meets them one
wonders where they get their power

OF their mastery, don't know, but it is
at least the ono quality which they
have in common. They are all sslf-cen.

sion Of being thoroughly at themselves.
Possibly the most distinguished look
ing man in the convention was Mayor
Rose Of Milwaukee, who was talked of
for permanent chairman. He is about
six feet, three inches tall, very hand

Rose is such man.
