in the death of Conductor George w.
Briggs, the probably fatal injury OF
Mine Superintendent Frank Lyon and

lone woman passenger and her little
babe were eXtricated from the debris,
the former being severely hurt. While
the babe escaped without a scratch.

They Say

That man talks about the weather because
he doesn't know enough to talk about anything
else. That's about the case with the man who
has always been going to tailor for his clothes
lie pays about 40 per cent. too much, but he
doesn't know about any other clothes Show him
one of our Spring Suits and you have started
him off on new line of thought. Common sense
is it not, to get as much for your money as you
can?

The Catawissa Band discoursed
excellent music in front of the Ex-
chonge Hotel, both before and after
the Democratic Convention. The
organization was considerably
diminished in number by reason of
the inability of several to leave their
work, but Notwithstanding this de-
ficiency, every selection was we'll
rendered. Catawissa has, for many
years past, enjoyed the reputation
of having a good band.

You Must Remember

That the wholesale tailors' employ tailors,
can buy the best fabrics, have straight connec-
tions with the most authoritative fashion centres
and can make suit-because they make many
at half the merchant taor's price.

ATTRACTIONS AT THE FAIR.
First Congregational Booths Did a
Eust1ing Business in Spite of Rain

The rain was not welcomed by those
in charge of the First Congregational
Church fair, which opened last night. 1t
was very well attended nevertheless. The
church and basement presented very
pretty and animated scene, with the va
rious booths decorated tastefully in many
colored buntings. The booths were all
well patronized and, considering the
pretty girls who were in charge, it was
a wonder the young men did not buy
them out completely.
The entertainment was very good, as
is usually the case at this church, and
it alone was we'll worth the price of ad-
mission, even if one had no time to in
spect the rest of the fair.
The voting contest for the picture of
either Mckinley or Bryan received a
good start and will no doubt be very ex-
citing at the close of the fair. The
Decker Association of the Eighth ward
has boasted that the picture of Mckinley
will hang on the walls of its club rooms
when the fair is over. but that remains
to be seen.
The ''Klondike, had a crowd around
all the time, as it is a novelty to most
people and novelty is always popular.
The "Klondike' consists of large pile
of earth on the floor and secreted in the
pile are numberless small packages,
which each contains prize. The miner,
the person wanting to try his or her
luck, pays SO much for a chance and
then digs in the pile until he or She gets a
package. This form of amusement Gre
ated a great deal of fun during the even
ing, as the prizes were suitable for all
ages, and very often an old man or wom-
an would get toy meant for some small
child.
The rest of the booths did a very good
business. The fair has every prospect of
being decided success.

men in the audience. His voice was
husky, but he managed to make himself
heard and elected considerable applause,
He said that foreigners came here be-
cause they can find liberty and escape op-
preston.
Not long ago. he added, ''the Re-
publican party freed four million slaves
How can it now in the light of that re-
cord enslave ten millions on the other
side of the globe''
The speaker advised young men not to
be carried off by the success OF
the American arms in the late
war, but to adhere to the principles of
our constitution. In alluding to his own
candidacy he said that he had been in
public office for many years. If he failed
as a public servant he said he would
deserve condemnation, but he was willing
to leave that question 80 the voters.

JR. 0. U.A. N. CONVENTION
Lively Session to Be Held In
Trenton Today.
Especial to ..The Jersey city News..1


TRENTON, Oct. %, 19OO-The annual
convention of the State Council of New
Jersey, Jr. o. U. A. NJ, which will be
held in this city today, promises to be
one of the most important ever held by
the organization. The convention will.
without the least doubt, vote to sever its
connection with the National Council and
continue under the charter granted 1t by
the State Legislature
The special committee on National
Council affairs, which was appointed to
consider the advisability of withdrawing,
has completed lengthy report, which
will be submitted at the convention The
other States who have been considering
for some time past whether 81 not they
would withdraw from the National Coun-
Gil, have left the matter entirely in the
hands of their respective State officers.
The officers of the New Jersey Council
have received many letters from them,
in which nearly all express themselves
as being in favor of severing their con-
nection with the National Council, and
some have gone so far as to say that if
New Jersey will only take the lead they
will follow
The headquarters of the convention are
established in the office of State Secretary
William H. Mers in Masonic Temple.
The convention, which will be held in
Masonic Hail. convened at o'clock A. M.
The morning session was taken up with
the reading of the reports of the State
officers and the various committees. Ses-
sions will be neld also in the afternoon
and evening. 1t will probably take two
days before all the business is transacted.
The convention as far as attendance
goes will be the largest yet held by the
organization. Every council in the State
are expected to attend

BRYAN'S ARRIVAL
Expected at the Marion
Depot Of the P. R. R.
Tomorrow Evening.
ESCORT OF HONOR READY
After the Jersey City Meeting
Colonel Bryan Will Go
to Hoboken.

Mr.. William J. Bryan will d. v. arrive
in this city at the Marion depot of the
F. r. r. tomorrow evening shortly after
seven o'clock. He will be met there by
the Campaign Committee of the Demo-
cratic County Committee and an escort
of honor composed of representatives
from the Eighth Ninth, Tenth Eleventh
and Twelfth wards After speaking at

Josephs Hall, then to the Tabernacle,
st. Peters and St. Michaels..
He will go afterwards to Hoboken and
remain there until tomorrow. Mr.. Robert
Davis will accompany Mr. Bryan, on his
trip up the State, as far as Dover. An
effort was made to induce Mr.. Bryan to
stay in Jersey City tomorrow night, and
telegram was sent to Senator Johnston
Cornish requesting him to induce the
Democratic candidate for President to do
80; but the reply came that it was un-
reasonable, inasmuch as Mr.. Bryan had
to be in Hoboken early the next morning
he would require all the rest he could
obtain after such an arduous day.

WARM STUFF, INDEED.
Republican 0ratory Becomes
So Hot It Sets the Build
ing On Fire.

Gee Wink, but the campaigns getting
hot in this city! At a meeting held today
in the store No. &c Montgomery street, the
flow of Republican oratory became SO
gaseous that there was an explosion and
the building was set on fire. 1t was the
latest departure in Republican campaign
work and was inaugurated to day in the
store No. Sc Montgomery street. Some-
ones money hired the store and decorated
it tastefully with streamers and bunting
of the National colors, portraits of Nc
'Kinley and Roosevelt reproductions of
current cartoons and big charts showing
the great blessings the Republican party
bestowed upon the country and the gem
eral all around cussedness of everything
Democratic The combination is called
"A Businessmen's MONDAY Meeting.
A fair sized crowd for the place assem-
bled in the store at noon today. Timid-
ity marked their general demeanor and
they kept safe distance from the raised
inclosed platform, which, like the pris-
oners' dock in French court, is built
against the east wall, about half way
down the store. In this pen sat Marshall
Van Wrinkle, candidate for Congress; Jas.
Andrews, candidate for Assembly, and an
other youth to fame and fortune appar-
entity unknown. Mr.. Andrews called the
meeting to order. He is nice looking
young man, has a good voice and spoke
we'll for about half hour from a Re-
publican point of view.
In spite of the efforts of several police
men to urge the audience nearer the
prisoners dock, the crowd hung around
the door and hugged the west wall. Mr..
Van Winkle followed Mr.. Andrews. He
began by saying that he had been speak
ing a great deal of late and could not
speak loud, so he would be obliged to the
gentlemen If they would come up closer
There was nothing about Mr.. Van
WinlSse that looked dangerous and the
crowd moved up. MarshaI shook hands
with several and then went ahead. He
took Issue with Mr. Hanna. and said there
was one trust a most gfgantic Institu-
tion which ground down the poor and

GREENV|LLE AWAKE.
Columbia Hall Crowded With
Enthusiastic Democrats
Who Loudly Applaud
ed Speakers.

The most enthusiastic Democratic mass
meeting ever held in Greenville took place
last night at Columbia Hall. The hail.
which is one of the largest in the city,
was filled with an enthusiastic crowd who
gave frequent expression of their ap-
proval of the doctrines and arguments adj
vanced by the speakers.
U. S. Senator George L. Wellington
from Maryland was to have addressed
the audience, but owing to illness was un-
able to appear. His place was taken by
Congressman John Sharp Williams of
Mississippi, whose speech was listened to
from beginning to end with the closest at
tention. 1t was mastery, scholarly re-
view of national politics, and singularly
free from the ordinary fanfare of the
stump speaker.
County Committeeman Michael l..
Fagen called the meeting to order ad
made a short address of welcome. He in
troduced Joseph Blaese, President of, the
Seventh Ward Democratic Club, as the
chairman of the meeting
Alexander C. Young, the first speaker,
made the trusts and imperialism the
themes of his discourse and drew vivid
picture Of the sufferings of the coal min
ers in Pennsylvania and the manner in
which they had been imposed upon. He
also dwelt largely on the outrages per-
petrated on the miners of the Coeur
d Alene district of Idaho during their
strike. Mr.. Young was loudly applauded
for his attack on the Republican hypoc-
risy towards the labor question.
Congressman Williams, who had enter
ed the hall while Mr. Young was speak
ing was then introduced. Using Repub-
lican figures of exports and imports dur
ing the past four years he insisted that
the prosperity, claimed as the outcome of
Republican rule, was due to natural
causes. Failure of the wheat crops in
India and the abundance of the harvest
in the west accounted for the prosperity
here. Then turning to imperialism, the
speaker in most eloquent manner drew
the histories of countries affected by the
desire of dominion. Greece and Rome fur
nished the example which America ought
to remember.
He ridiculed Colonel Roosevelt's state
ment that America should have stand
ing army Militarism was a curse, he
concluded after a glowing word picture
of the Dreyfus incident and the state of
Germany today.
Throughout the Congressman's speecn
was listened to with rapt attention and at
its conclusion the applause was deafen-
ing.
Mr.. Warren Dixon followed with short
address and touched on imperialism
Mr.. Michael B. Holmes candidate for
Freeholder, was the last speaker and
spoke on local issues.
The vice presidents of the meeting
represented the various precincts of rne
ward and were:-Raymond Schroeder,
Frank E. Chase. Chris Doran, George
Schroll, George f. Witt, Henry Isembeck
