McKinley's Domain--Notlfied Of Nomin-

Ann Arbor. Mich, Oct. 12.-Consid-
cradle disorder characterized w. j.
Bryan's visit to Ann Arbor yesterday.
The students of the state university,
which is located here, were at the
/ meeting in large numbers and each one
made his presence felt. A platform
had been erected on the south side Of
the court house building and the en-
tire south side Of the square, as well
as the adjoining street, was covered
with solid mass Of humanity, ma
jority Of those nearest the stand being
students.
Mr.. Bryan had no sooner shown his
face than the boys began clamor
which did not cease for ten or fifteen
minutes. Even after Mr.. Bryan ad-
vanced to the front of the stand the
din continued, but it ultimately sub
sided sufficiently to allow him to begin.
3sA"I am glad to talk to you," he began,
'if you are willing to listen.'
A few voices responded: eve are
willing
"If l were an imperialists," Mr.. Bry-
an went on, 81 would call out an army
Z to suppress you but Lam not.''
This sally seemed to please the
young men, and most of them laughed
and cheered. Some Of them jeered to
such an extent, however that an Off
Ger was compelled to enter the cl owd
and arrest several of the noisiest.
After this, while the Interruptions were
frequent, they generally took the shape
of questions. One Of the questions
brought the explicit declaration from
Mr.. Bryan, "the Democratic party is
for the free coinage Of silver at the
ratio of IL to without waiting for the
aid or consent Of any other nation"
By the time Mr.. Bryan concluded the
confusion had ceased entirely and he
closed amid cheers.
At the time of the arrest Of some of
the students Mr.. Bryan's attention was
not called to the fact and he did not
know Of it until after the close of the
meeting. When informed Of what had
been done, he Immediately sent a let
ter requesting their discharge
During the afternoon Mr.. Bryan re-
ceiyed through messenger notif1ca-
tion in writing of his nomination to
the presidency by the Silver Repub-
lican party at Kansas City last July.
Today Mr.. Bryan win begin his tour

HOTBED OF GREENHOUSE FORM
sists of six foot hotbed sash supported
by rafters ana 4 ridge part that con
sists of tapping boards which extend
Iengthwisc of the house. The upper
boards of this part. in alternate lengths
on each side, are hinged to the ridge
piece. thus afTording means Of ventila-
ton without sliding the sash. Entrance
is effected from the end through a
shed. as shown in Fig >. The princi-
pal advantage of such a house is that
the work Of planting. watering. etc,
can be done ut times when ii is too cold
or stormy to open hotbeds as these
are ordinarily made. There are some
gains also in the matter of heat econo-
my as well as in that of being able to
replenish any part with fresh manure
in case this is desired for increased
heat.
First, an excavation two feet in
depth and the size of the house was
made, the soil being used in part for
banking against the house for shelter
and to carry away moisture. The sides
consist of two inch scantling boarded
up on the inside and at the top on the
outside The sash supports, Of two
inch stuff, at ore end rest on the outer
walls, while toward the other end they
rest on two plates two and half feet
apart, which run lengthwise with the
house. These plates are supported by
iron gas pipes at intervals of eight
feet, the lines CT which also define the
walk and the beds. The height of the
house at the center is six and n half
feet The manure spaces are of the
same extent as the beds proper and
are about three feet deep. In the
boarding up of the manure spaces at
the walk it is arranged to have the
greater part of the board surface NOV
able, being kept in place by the but
tons which are attached to the station
ary boards at the top and bottom.
Aside from the hotbed above de-
scribed the present writer has had
much experience with hotbeds of the
ordinary form y little later in the sea-
son than when the greenhouse is Oper-
ated. One method employed in ar
ranging his hotbed yard has been so
satisfactory that he heartily recon-
mends it to others The idea is shown
in Fig 3 1t is in the direction of
entirely saving the handling of sashes,
except as they slide on the frame, with
a saving both in glass breakage and in
jury from racking.
The way of cffecting this is by hav-
ing the hotbeds arranged in double
line rs a and in the engraving, with
space (cJ between them equal in
width to n hotbed. This space is de
signed to accommodate the sash when
the bed is uncovered and thus never
moving them into the walks I'd d.. 1t

the sashes as safely supported and as
free from racking when moved Off the

same space accommodates the sashes
of both beds, as the slope permits the
extended parts of the supports to be

MIR. BRYANS ANSWER.

When he loses his temper and his manners
Mr. Rrven blurts out the truth. He did so at
Ithaca the other day in response to pertinent
question, breaking out with vulgar insult to
the President of the United States but at the
same time confessing his own subserv1ency to
the Silver Trust. he did so, however, by ind1-
rection, and not in a straightforward and con-
fdent manner as one should who is convinced
of the righteousness of his cause and who wishes
to command and to deserve the confidence OF
the people He continues to declare that he and
his followers are prepared to meet their oppo-
pents on any question Yet he persistently and
consistently declines, refuses or neglects to an
swer frankly the simple question, IF you were
President, would you meet the obligations of the
Government in silver or in gold? We have no
idea that he will have the courage and manli-
ness to answer it before Election Day. Yet as
we have already said, 1t really does not matter
whether he does so not. Everybody is per-
fectly certain Of what he would do If he were
President. But in another and perhaps more
positive and definite sense 1t is no longer neces-
sary for Mr.. Bryan to answer the question
save to vindicate his own courage and manli-
ness-for the reason that he has already an
swered 1t in the fullest and most explicit man
ner.
In our special Washington correspondence on
Friday it was recalled that when he was Rep
resentative in Congress- on March 2, 1894, Mr..
Bryan introduced bill dealing with this very
matter. 1t provided:
That all obligations heretofore here
after incurred by the Government of the
United States which call for payment
in coin, shall be payable in gold or silver
coin of the present weight and fneness, at
the discretion of the Secretary OF the Treas
ury, and the right of the holder of any such
obligation to demand payment I'm a pnrticu-
lar kind of coin, whether gold silver, is
hereby expressly denied.
That is Mr.. Bryans answer. 1t was made
more than six years ago. But he has never re-
canted 1t nor modified 1t, and until he does so
we are justified in assuming that it properly
stands as his present answer to the question.
If he were President the obligations Of the Gov
eminent would be paid in silver, If it so pleased
| 'Dick" Croker or Anarchy Altgeld or what
ever Free Silver statesman he might make Sec
rotary Of the Treasury. That is Mr.. Bryan's
answer, and 1t will stand until he gives US an
other.

ANOTHER HALL OF FAME.

A single valid criticism has been made upon
the Hall of Fame at New-York University, and
1T has been promptly and completely answered.
The chatter about Lincoln's name not being
among the first that were chosen, and Sher-
mans not having received a single vote, and
the like, has all had its origin in heedlessness
or ignorance. The most ordinary attention to
the facts Of the case shows its utter groundless-
ness. But the complaint that by the terms of
the foundation Of the Hall of Fame some of
the greatest of Americans are forever excluded
because of the incident of foreign birth is a
different matter. Witherspoon and Asbury
were as truly identified with America as were
Edwards and Beecher. Hamilton was no less
an American statesman than was Jefferson.
Agassiz and Ericsson and Draper belong to the
annals Of American science as truly as Audu-
bon and Fulton and Morse. And 1t is perfectly
judicious to say that no American Hall of Fame
could be altogether complete that did not in
clude some Of the names of adopted citizens of
the United States.
To that the answer was given even before
the complaint was made While in the act of
preparing the first roll Of native born Ameri-
cans to be inscribed in the Hall of Fame the
senate Of the university formally recognized
the need of another and complementary Hall
of Fame for Americans by adoption, and sane
toned the erection Of it. In such an edifce.
standing by the side of the existing hall and
exactly duplicating its dignity and spendor.
these other names, selected by the same wise
processes, would be placed. Between the two
there would be no invidious discrimination
The native and the adopted Americans would
stand side by side in commemorative renown,
as they had stood side by side in the vital and
benefcent activities which won their title to
such distinction. Such an harmonious union of
the two halls would complete beyond all carp
ing the tribute to and the reminder of the great
men and women of the United States, and by
denOting its impartiality, its cosmopolltanism
and its humane catholicity would form an I'M
surpassed tribute TO the American Nation IT.
self and TO its civilization.
1t would be worse than churlish TO rail
against the original gift for the present hall
because it-Or because the trustees of it-did
not include the whole in one plan. The giver
Of the Hall Of Fame, whose name has not yet
been disclosed 10 the grateful public, acted with
generosity of purpose and clarity of Judgment
