BRYAN NOTIFIED.

Hon. William J. Bryan, of Nebras
ka, and Hon. Adlai Z Stevenson, Of
Illinois, were formally notified We'd
nesday afternoon of their nomination
BY the democratic party for the off,
oes Of President and Vice President
Of the United States.
The exercise took place in the open
air at Military Park, Indianapolis,
Ind. An immense crowd was present
and great enthusiasm prevailed.
Prominent democrats from all parts
Of the country were in the throng.
Mayor Taggart, of Indianapolis,
was temporary presiding officer, and
introduced as the permanent chair
man United States Senator James K.
Jones, of Arkansas, chairman Of the
Democratic National Committee.
The formal notification Of Mr.. Bryan
was made by Congressman James D.
Richardson, Of Tennessee, permanent
chairman of the Kansas CITY Con-
vention. Mr.. Stevenson was notified
by Governor Charles S. Thomas, of
Colorado, temporary chairman of the
Kansas City Convention.
Both nominees responded at length
dealing with Imperialism as the great
issue Of the campaign. They strong
y denounced Imperialism as the most
dangerous proposition that has ever
confronted this country. The speeches
were wildly cheered.
a parade of democratic clubs pre-
ceded the exercises at the park. The
entire city was gay with flags and
other decorations, and pictures of
Bryan and Stevenson were seen every-
where.

Hon. William Jennings Bryan's
speech to the committee entrusted
with the duty of notifying him of his
nomination for the presidency by the
Democratic National Convention that
met in Kansas City, is by its length
calculated, upon a superficial glance,
to stagger one. But every line of it
will bear careful reading and thought
full consideration, and is germane to
the momentus battle of the ballots
that is before the American people.
1t is great and convincing "cam-
paign document" which puts the re.
publican party upon the defensive
throughout, and should rally to the
democratic standsrd-nsy, the stan
dard Of anti-imperialism-every voter
who would see repu blican institutions
preserved in this country, and insure
to posterity the pregnancy in their in.
tegrity of the doctrines and priuci.
pies of the fathers.
AS had been Neutrality-suspicious.
Swallowed much to the dismay of the
republicans, as shown by the frantic
efforts of their organs to discount
such thing-Mr. Bryan brings anti
Imperialism to the front as the para.
mount issue. In so doing he echoes
and emphasizes the declaration of the
Kansas City platform, that that is
the vital and crucial question of the
hour, and effectually disposes of the
libel, based upon his insistance
touching the silver plank, that he
considers himself bigger than his
party. AS to the silver issue, Mr..
Bryan contended, as did many others,
that whether or not it was practica.
BILE under existing conditions to con-
summate his free silver policy, if the
position of the democratic party on
the question was right in 1895, it was
right in 1900, and honesty and prin-

AT the close of q strong editorial
the Baltimore Sun SAYS: "Mr. Bryau's
Indianapolis speech should convince
all whose minds are open to convic-
ton that the greatest calamity which
could happen to this country would
be the adoption of the imperial policy
advocated by Mckinley and Hanna. -
In other words the Sun will support
Bryan this year and advises all TO
help defeat Mckinley and imperial
ism. This means that Maryland can
be safely counted on 70 csst her cleo
toral vote for Bryan.

Experiences of Missionaries.

AT the First Baptist church last
night union meeting of Baptists was
held to hear addresses on missionary
work, says the Indianapolis News. The
Rev. Frank H. lowering, who, for six
years, has been attached to the Telugu
mission in India, spoke of the ravages
of the famine. His mission is in the
famine district. Great Britain should
not be blamed, he said, for the condi-
ton in India, for the cause -, nat
ural one, over which there could be no
control. The heather, he said. did
nothing to relieve the suffering. Every
thing that was being done was by
Christians. The Rev. Henry Richards,
who has for twenty-one years been a
missionary in Africa, told of conditions
in the Congo valley. He said he
worked seven years before making a
single convert. Some of the tribes per-
secute the missionaries, he said, but
generally the people are interested in
the Bible if it is presented in a way
they can understand.

The rustiness of the celery plants de-
scribed above is probably due to a
fungous disease called celery leaf rust.
This attacks the leaf of the plant, but
causes the most injury to the leaf stem
where its presence is not usually so
apparent This disease often develops
in the seed beds, and plants that are so
infested should be carefully treated be-
fore being set in the field The best
treatment consists in cutting off the
diseased leaves and spraying the re-
naming plants with Bordeaux mix
ture. Two applications of this fungi
eide, one given to the plants in the
seed beds and the other soon after
they are set in the field. will usually
prevent any injurious effect of this
fungus.

Skipping rope exercises for middle
aged gentlemen affected with liver"
or indigestion is the latest alleged
medical fad to which the humorists
of the press have directed their atten-
ton. The London correspondent of

form of adult exercise is being used
on rainy mornings as a substitute for
the mile and a half run before break
fast. which has been prescribed by a
west end physician as remedy for
that condition of the liver which in
London is due to want of outdoor ex-
ercise and late hours, hard work and
bad air. There are professional men

IRISH IN AMERICA.
They May BE Said to Have a GenIous
for Politics.

They May BE Said to Have GenIous
for Politics.
lndustrially the lore.gn element In
America has been very important says
Ainslee's Magazine. More than ninety
per cent OF the immigrants who have
come and are coming to this country
are industrious and sober. They come
to better their fortunes, and they set
about doing 1t with great energy. The
railroads and great public works in
this country used to be built by Irish
laborers. am speaking in general
terms. Without them we would not
nave been able to make the great prog
ress which justfies us in believing
that our growth in wealth during the
past thirty years is more marvellous
than anything the world has previous
ly seen. But the Irish have found 9TH
er occupations, in which they can
crafty their gregarious instincts. de-
yelop their wonderful talent for politi-
cal organization, and in large and
small ways enjoy the independence TO
spend and to accumulate which was
denied to them for so long at home.
They have therefore settled in great
measure in the cities and taken up the
occupations that In such places are
open to them. These occupations range
all the way from street sweeping to
millionaire flnanciering. and include
cab driving, car driving, being porters,
5arkeepers, clerks, merchants, doctors,
lawyers and editors AS professional
politicians they have had no peers in
the history of the world. They may
be said to have a genius for politics.
And the Irish who had not flocked to
the cities are doing remarkably we'll.
They are farmers all over the country,
and their success In the North Allan
tic division of the country, on farms
that were no longer profitable under
native management, has been most
notable. AS husbandmen they are fru-
gal without being niggardly. Their
remarkable political strength is due to
the fact that they have kept together
when 1t came to voting more consist
emily than any other people. Thack-
cray says somewhere, his observation
being of the Irish in London, that there
never was an Irishman SO poor that he
did not have another Irishman who
looked to him for enjoyment and sup
port. This was tribute to their 10y
atty, their friendliness and generos-
ity.

Capt. Hughes Illness.

The HERALD regrets to learn that
Captain w. N. Hughes has been dan
gerously ill at Columbus Barracks,
Ohio. For time his physicians had
about lost hope for his recovery, but,
we are glad to report, he is now steadily
improving. His liver was affected and
an abscess was formed, which broke
several days ago, since which his re-
covery has been very rapid. Captain
Hughes has many friends at this, his
old home. who hope that he may soon
be entirely restored to health. The
heart trouble he had was sympathetic
from the liver, and his general health
now, it is thought, will be much better.
