DR.. Cora Smith Eaton addressed
the G. L. S. G. this morning.
DR.. Forbes, of Duluth, will de-
liver the sermon Sunday morning.
He is a great preacher.
Loungers were startled this
forenoon by the cry, "A woman is
drowning" The waves were rum
ming high at the time, but un-
mindful Of this fact, Mrs. Rich
mond, of Minnewaukan, jumped
off the springboard into the lake.
The waves dashed into her face,
strangling her badly, but preserv-
ing wonderful presence of mind,
she managed to keep afoat until a
ladder was thrown out to her and
she was hauled from the grasp of
the pillows. Mrs. Richmond said
she wasn't scared, but to the on
lockers it seemed that she had, a
very narrow escape.
DR.. McIntye was annoyed dur
ing his lecture last evening by the
children down in front. They have
also disturbed other speakers on
previous occasions. This is a
nuisance that should not be toler-
ated another season. Parents
ought to be required to see to it
that their children behave them
selves properly during public exer-
cises.
!, DR.. May will deliver his lecture,
"Glimpses of Paul in Rome" Sun
day evening. This discourse was
especially prepared for Sunday
delivery. but is appropriate at any
time. It tells the story of repeated
visits to the most interesting city
in the world, with a study of Paul
in Rome from his entrance on the
Appian Way to his martyrdom;
) describes his approach, entrance,
; place where he preached, his hired
house, his prison, and the site of
, his martyrdom. The lecture is a
mingled study of the Eternal City
+ with the, eternal truth and the
mightiest Roman of them all.
Everybody should hear it.

Singers, at the close of which the
Devils Lake people went home
feeling that they had experienced
a grand time-and SO they had.
When the people began to crowd
into the big Auditorium yesterday
after noon they saw such maxims
as these staring at them in black
letters from the walls fanking the
stage.
Equality at the ballot box
"Taxation without representa-
ton is tyranny"
Governments derive their lust
powers from the consent of the
governed"
Everybody knows what the pres
fence Of the notices meant. They
were an indication that some one
was going to deliver. an address on
women suffrage, or something Of
that sort, and SO it happened.
The speaker was Mrs. Cora Smith
Eaton, of Minneapolis, andher SUBJ
ject was "Women in Politics. She
is a charming little lady and the
best Of attention was paid to her
while she pointed out the progress
that women have made during the
last fifty years in the direction of
securing equality with man before
the law. Fifty years ago there was
no such thing as a woman lawyer,
doctor or minister. Married WON

they wore, the raiment being the
property of their husbands; worse
than that, they did not have the
right to the possession Of her own
children.

wonderful improvement that has
been made in the way Of endowing
|the women wit1hsjaad5dintiiona1 rights
(and privileges. showed the capacity
fpf her sex for business. finance,
land politics, and of course inferred
they ought to be endowed with all
rights Of citizenship that belong

Eaton there was the usual after
Fnoon concert by the talent, which
was supplemented blythe acrobatic
Ffeats performed by Lavalee and
Kline who presented themselves
on the Chautauqua platform for
1.-The first time.
After the exercises in the audi.
torium everybody adjourned to the
base ball grounds to witness the
game between the Devils Lake
Iclub and the Indian nine from
the Fort Totten reservation. It
was not a marvelously exciting
contest, it being evident from the
start that the Devils Lake boys
out-classed their opponents to an
extent that rendered a close game
impossible. Thescore at the close
of the game stood Is to Z in favor
Of Devils Lake.
The grandest concert Of all has
been planned for tomorrow even

song.
Adherence of opinion exists as

Anderson, Ind, Oct 5.-While Mr..
Bryan was speaking at Marion to-day
some one in the audience asked in re-
gard to the North Carolina law. Mr..
Bryan said: My friend, 1 am glad YOU
asked me that; 1 am prepared for you.
Now 1 am going to assume that the
Republican who asked the question is
an honest man. 1 am going to ask
nm about the Constitution of the Re-
puollcan State of Oregon. l will read
provision of that Constitution. 1t
says:
Section 35. No free negro or mu-
iatto not residing in this State at the
time of the adoption Of this Constitu-
tlon shall come, reside or be within
this State, hold any real estate or make
any contract or maintain any such
therein, and the legislative assembly
shall provide by penal laws for the re-
moval by public officers of all such
negroes and muiattos and for their eff
fectual exclusion from the State and
for the punishment of persons who
shall bring them into the State or en-
ploy or harbor them
BEFORE THE CIVIL WAR.
That amendment was adopted. be-
fore the civil war; it makes 1t unlawful
for a free negro to go into the State,
and it authorizes the officers to put
him out. But you say that 1t is old.
Let me remind you that last June All
effort was made to repeal that portion
of the Constitution and the effort was
defeated. although the State went 10 900
Republican. But my friend may not
have time to go to Oregon. If not I
want to tell him to go to the city of
Washington. That is nearer. Go to
washington and find out what pro l.
sion the Republican Administration has
made for the voters of Porto Rico.
THE SULU TREATY.
why don't you correct this? But IL
you have not the time to go to Wash
ington let me remind you that your
administration has made the Sulu
treatry. and the Sulu treaty provides
that our flag shall float over the Sui
tans rnlace and that we shall pay the
Sultan so much to keep it floating
there. That flag floats to-day over
Sulu slaves and the treaty recognizes
slavery as an existing institution, and
instead of providing that the slave
shall be free. the Sulu treaty provides
in article 10 that he shall have the
right to purchase his freedom when
ever he can make enough working r
nothing day to buy himself at ,Ac
market price. There was never n more
shameful piece of hypocrisy than Is
that under which the Republicans hids

ments. 1t was Republican Congress
that took the right to vote away from
those in the district of Columbia. and
FOR thirty years the negro has been
electing Republican Presidents and
getting janitorships in return, and you
never hear modern Republican saw
anything for him except during cam
paign when his vote is needed"

of visiting during the day as many

fewer than zine counties and making

(By Telegraph to Virginian-P ilot.)
Chicago. Oct. 5.-Senator Hanna
made merry to-day over the stories
about the attempt to assassinate him.
He said:
The facts are as follows: After
had done speaking and was sitting
down listening TO Congressman Mann
a piece of ice about as big as your
closed fist struck the corner of the
table in front of me and fell TO the
floor of the platform. I paid no atten-
ton to it, thinking some one had upset
the water pitcher and the ice had fallen
out. 1 looked up and saw n hole in
the top of the tent. through which
the chunk of ice had evidently come
1t could not have been aimed at any
one. as whoever threw it in could not
have seen any one inside.

or ten pounds are ridiculous. paid no
attention to the incident at the time,
and have not thought about 1t SINCE"

contrary, there was at most places
much enthusiasm manifested by Mr.
Bryan's supporters. Trusts formed the
subject of most of the speeches of the
day, but at Richmond Mr.. Bryan de-
voted all his time to Imperialism.
THE RICHMOND MEETING.
The presiding officer at the Richmond
meeting was Hon. Henry u. Johnson,
formerly Il prominent member of Con-
sress and until recently pronounced
Republican. When he introduced Mr..
Bryan, the latter was received with
great applause by one of the largest
audiences of the day. The speech at
this place was prefaced by reference
to Mr.. Johnsons change OF party affil-
iatlons. Referring TO Mr.. Johnson. he
said
Mr.. johnson and served in the
House together. l knew of his ability
then and / knew of his industry.
knew he was conscientious man even
when he and l could not reach the
same conclusions on political questions.
l am glad that In this campaign he is
on our side, and If any one wants to
criticise Mr.. Johnson for leaving the
Republican party / want to remind
them that they did not criticise Demo-
Gratis who left the party in 1896 to save
the gold standard, and II a man can
leave the Democratic party in order
to save the gold standard, why cannot
a Republican leave his party in order
to save the Declaration of Indepeu-
dence?"
NOT PROPHECY, BUT HISTORY.
Mr.. Bryan then said that Imperialism
is not a prophecy. but history, and
said that we were taxing the Porto
Ricans without giving them represen-
tatiOn.
Your own President" said Mr..
Bryan. said 1t was our plain duty to
give free trade to Porto Rico, and your
own member of Congress (Nfr. Watson)
was opposed to the Porto Rican bill
until the President called him to the
White House and begged him to vote
for the bill. and asked him to do it.,
not for the sake of duty, but for the
sake of party harmony. Republicans.
in the game of Republican politics
party harmony is q higher card than
plain duty. l want to ask you If you
are prepared to surrender everything
for party harmony"
