VIII Not Appear Here.

1t is not likely that William j.
Bryan will be in this section during
the present campaign. He has an
nounced that he will not speak for
less than five hundred dollars per
hour, and there are no places here
abouts who could stand very long
speech at that figure. Evidently it
pays better to be a candidate for the
Presidency than to be elected to fill
the Office.

STRANGE BEAUTY
WANDERING NUDE.
Picked Up by Officer Gaun Sat-
urday Night.

urday N1ghC.
North BridgetOn had an exciting
time late Saturday night with a
young woman; stranger and appar-
emily a foreigner. who was wandering
about the streets in the garb of ma
ture.
She was first noticed near the store
of Daniel Garrison, Pearl and Penn
streets, and was then nearly un-
dressed, and in her arms she was car
rying a small bundle. Her strange
actions caused a curious crowd to fol-
low her, but apparently she paid no
attention to the people. When she
reached Laurel and North streets, she
had stripped herself of every bit of
clothing, and was walking uncon-
cernedly about, as mother Eve did in
the Garden of Eden.
Turning to the crowd she asked if
there was water near, and kept right
on toward the Cohansey river. Mr..
Price, who lives at North and
Cohansey streets. and Peter Dell,
managed to slip by the young woman
and got between her and the river,
and when the woman found she could
not dodge around them and dash in
the water, she put her bundle down
on the ground and began taking out
articles of clothing and put some of
them on.
When she first opened the bundle
some one in the crowd yelled out,
Look out for her revolver" and the
crowd of two hundred or more scat
tered for shelter. Mr. Price seized
the woman and kept grasp upon
her and told her she did not want to
go in the water. She protested that
she did, but of course was restrained.
Officer Gaun was sent for and
coaxed the woman as far as the
Laurel Hill M. P. Church, but she
would not go any further, and Bert
Denges was sent after Officer Wood
ruff, who soon appeared in a buggy,
and in this the woman was placed
and taken to the lookup.
AS soon as she was locked up, she
began to undress, and spent the night
entirely nude.
She is woman apparently of thir-
ty years, a comely young person and
remarkably clean. The underwear
she carried in the bundle Indicated
that she was a woman of refinement.
She could not understand the officers
or the Mayor yesterday, and she
seemed to be a Polander. She. can
use but few words of English. Sat-
urday night she said she was from an
asylum and again that she was from
Rosenhayn.
Mayor Hampton Sunday. morning
committed her to jail under the name
of Mary Doe upon the charge of dis
orderly conduct.
She is undoubtedly crazy, but is
quiet and docile enough when she
does not have to wear clothing. AS
soon as an attempt is made to dress
her she becomes rebellious and ugly.
The young woman is from Rosen-
hayn. This was learned Monday
by Officer Barton, who telephoned
there. She started from Rosenhayn
about twelve O'Clock Saturday and
said she was going out in the woods.
At that time she carried an um-
brella.

FALL EXCURSION OVER LAKE
WINNIPESAUKEE.


New England's best known lake re-
sorts are situated on the shores OF Lake
Winnipesaukee in Northern New Hamp-
shire. Lake Winnipesaukee is perhaps
the most beautiful lake in the world,
and the scenic landscapes and surround
ings are OF q most wonderfully charming
and widely varying character, and in
clude woodland and mountain scenes.
The lake in size fairly equals an inland
sea, its shore line measuring about one
hundred and eighty-seven miles. No less
than three hundred islands are scat tered
over its surface. some OF them in extent
covering several hundred acres The
landing places on the lake are Weirs,
! Centre Harbor, Wolfebero, Alton Bay,
Bear and Long Islands, and 1t is at these
places that the steamer Mt. Washington
makes landings during It's journey over
the lake, which distance is about sixty
miles, occupying about four hours. No
doubt these trips of the boat have aided
materially in making the lake famous,
for thousands take advantage of the low
rate fall excursions which the Boston
& Maine Railroad runs in connection
with the steamer Mt. Washington for
visiting Winnipesaukes.
An excursion is to be run from Port
land on Oct. 1st Round trip $3.50. Take
train leaving here at 90 a. M arriving
at Alton Bay IN time to connect with

Hard room In San FranCisco in 1884, like
all generous men, was very often imposed
upon by people who were under great
obligations to him and were continually

nature. 4 man named Cooper, Il clerk in
the banking house OF Adams 4 Co., ap'
pealed to him to make good large sum
of money that he had lost playing fare
and for which he was liable TO be I'M
prisoned. Chambers paid the money and
Cooper, being unabl.. or possibly not try

"pensioner' of Chambers, never failing
to call for his regular stipend, which was
cheerfully given to him until Chambers
discovered that Cooper gambied the mon
ey away and neglected TO pay any honest
debts that he could possibly avoid paying
The next time he called Chambers sale

money to play with, and | viii not give
you any more. But 90 around to the IN

and tell Charley Ellis to send me the
bill every week, and will pay it, but dc

regularly and paid them promptly fol
some weeks. One day man who seemed

him hand in the same S1O0 which Cham
