NEW YORK. Jan. 15-special.-1t IS
said that there is row among, the DEM 'ea u
ocrats over tho dinner which - IS 5 10 s pc
given to the Hon. lillian >. Bryan IN
this city The Suns version Oh ne
trouble is as follows:
OH p. Belmont is to give him a din-
ner. and out Of that il is expected mate
rial results are to come. The Sun mas al
ready announced that Colonel Bryan 3
friends are to take steps while he IS
here to assure him that the necessary
cash for national campaign is to be-
Forthcoming.
Hitherto, since the departure of Mr..
Democratic Club have dwelt together in
harmony. It is true that they have had
the clubhouse to themselves most OF the
time, and that Andy Freedman has pc
slowed upon them only occasional warn
ing mods and hints to mind their r
and Q's. Yesterday, however. the friends
of the Hon. John W. Keller insisted that
II Bryan is to be entertained IN New
York by any authorittve body of Dem
ocrats it should be the Democratic Cluo'
of which the Hon. John w. K IS presi-s

that he was u "handy man with ms
mouth and that even the Boy Orator
of the Platte grown frightfully fat since
that soubriauet was tackled to hia) could
beat him as a speech maker 80 these
Democrats insisted that the dinner 10
Bryan should be given by "the club and.
that the Hon. John w. *. should preside
Up spoke the friends of the Hon. John.
f. Carroll, head of the Tammany Hall
in Mr.. Cookers absence, and insisted
that the dinner to Bryan should be held
at the Savoy and that Mr.. Carroll. as
Tammany'S chief representative, should
preside. Nothing definite was decided
There promises to be the usual wrangle
over this feed to Mr.. Bryan, who ought
to be accustomed to fuss every time
he enters what he so aptly described in
1886 as 1.-THE enemy's country.
A great evangelical movement viii be
inaugurated in Brooklyn this week No
effort is to be made at PROSECUTING, the
only object being to induce men to get
religion. The first meeting will be held
on Wednesday
Among those who will appear will be
the Rev. DR.. A. T. Pierson, the Rev.
Len G. Broughton and the Rev. Fred
erick II. Jacobs, the singing evanse-s
list" for ten years or more the com
panion of Dwight L. Moody. These
three evangelists are to give impetus to
the revival work for at least four, days.
Rev. a. e. Dixon, we'll known in Rich
mond, is taking a prominent part in
the movement.
STOMACH LIKE AN OSTRICH.
There is an interesting patient in St
Johns Hospital in Brooklkn. His name
is John Sasel, and he is twenty-five
years of age. The physicians performed
an operation on him to relieve him Of an
acute attack of indigestion. They re-
moved from his stomach three watch
chains. two latch keys, six hair pins,
one hundred and twcnty-eight common
pins ten 21-2 inch iron nails and one
finger ring with stone setting.
Ten days ago Sasel went to the dis
pensary connected with st. Johns Hos
pital said that he had been 4 profess
sional pin swallower for fourteen weeks
and asked for a cure for indigestion.
On Wednesday last DR.. Hopkins made
an X-ray examination. The plates show.
ed some small detached articles and one
big black spot where the chains had
tangled up the pieces of metal An
operation was determined on, and on
Friday afternoon Sasel, in whom the
hospital physicians had become cry
much interested, was laid on the table
and an incison made in the wall OF the
stomach. After the cause of the trouble
had been removed the wound was saved
up and the patient put to bed.
The AIazet Committee will make its
report to the Legislature on Wednes-.
day. There will be majority and
minority report. but 1t is very doubtful
if they will result in any very great re-
forms.
