at both places.

Der of people who mad congregated at
the railroad station Before entering
upon his speech proper, he referred TO
the tact that the place was Intimately
associated with the career of his dis
tlngUished rival for presidential hon.
ors, saying:
I understand that this is the birth
place OF the president of the United
States You have the honor now of
being in the birthplace of the presi-

He cannot be born again and give you
another chance You had all you can
have out of it,
Mr.. Bryan spoke twice in YOungs-
attracting many people to see the ma
tiOnal candidate the meeting was an
unsurpassed triumph; in the other re-
spect of giving the people an OppOrtu-

speakers stand, possibly 400 feet on
each side, was denSely packed with
people struggling TO get near the plat
form and TO secure a glimpse OF the
lion Of the ocean. There was no effort
60 create trouble, but the natural hum
Of thousands of voices and the strug-
gle for place was such as to almost de-
strOy the effect of the speech The
stand, provided with accommodations
to seat sixty. persons, held 400 stand

the stand were plniOned so close that
they could not raise them 70 write and
those who were twenty feet away could
not hear the speech Mr. Bryan himself
had scarcely more room than was
necessary for him 70 stand erect, and
a squad of policemen was necessary 10
preserve the space for him
Those who were able TO hear received
the speech with frequent bursts Of ap-
plause, and this was often taken up
the speakers voice so that IT may be
said that the meeting was enthusiastic
even though most OF those present
| failed to hear what was said.
After the outdoor meeting AT YOungS-
town closed, Mr.. Bryan was escorted
TO the opera house. where he spoke TO
as many people. most OF them women,
as could find accommodation inside Of
that building

He referred to the presence of so
many ladies. and, addressing himself
! TO them, said:
