1t Was a Hummer.

The demonstration in honor OF
little Charlie Burke and Eden Mar
tin Gl.75) a few nights ago was
Knocked into a cooked hat when com
pared with the enthusiastic crowd
which greeted Hon. Jerry S. Green
at the Bryan club headquarters last
night. There was no grand torch
light procession, no brass band, 90
sky rockets, nc roman candles and
no red fire, out just a drum corps of
the old continental variety, a bon
fire and a speaker who knew what
he was talking about.
People were turned away, unable
to gain admission to the hall.
Every available foot OF space was
filled and people stood up for almost
the entire time in ordsr to hear Mr..
Green through to the end. People
from the country joined the town
people in the demonstration and
enthusiasm reigned supreme.
Mr.. Green's handling of the issues
was the work OF a master. upper
ialism, militarism, trusts and the
money question each in their turn
received his attention. He appeal
ed to his hearers, not as political
partisans, but as honest citizenf,
and asked them to vote as their
consciences dictated. He paid a
glowing tribute to Mr.. Mckinley
personally, but showed plainly that
the president is controlled by the
worst enemies which menace popular
government. Mr.. Green did not
hold that the fusion forces were pure
and nnde6led and the republicans
all rogues and ~rascals. He pointed
out the hirelings and corruptionists
that had brought Disgrace and hum
iliation to the fusion forces and con.
demned them in unmeasured term.
He did the same with the republican
party, but was ready to acknowledge
that the great mass Of republicans
we're honest and sincere in their
political belief.
Mr.. Green was fair, he was honest,
he was eloquent. The fire Of honest
convictions showed itself in his every
sentence and the great crowd which
came out to hear him was indeed q
compliment to him.
Great and good crowds should
greet Mr.. Green at the towns in the
northern Hills.

Leaving the Triumphal Bridge, we come

may gather upon the occasion of special
celebrations CT ceremonies.
The main exposition buildings are
grouped around a vast court in shape
like an inverted T.. AS we stand in the
Esplanade facing the north the lesser
courts of the horizontal are at the

that give off delicious doors from mil

the gift Of an enterprising and public

has taken this as an opportune time to
bestow a lasting benefit upon the city.

ton.

possessions OF the United States and for

where the park has been grated upon
the newer grounds OF the exposition.
The park lands have necessarily been
somewhat invaded, but not disfigured.

MUST where to begin a story of the
great Pan-American Exposition at
~ Buffalo is a problem offering many
ways of approach, all of them at
tractive, all of them so inviting as to
leave one still in doubt which to choose.
If we begin at the upper left hand
corner-the northwest-as an artist
might do in making picture, we shall
straightway find ourselves in the laby-
rinths of the Midway, surrounded by
the gayest of scenes, in a maze of nov
elites, threading serpentine walks
meeting the grotesque and the incon-
gruous and laughing with the merriest
of merry crowds. If we begin at the
northeast corner, we shall sit in the top
row of seats in the Stadium, looking at
a crowd of 25, 900 people in that great
amphitheater, larger in its dimensions
than the Coliseum built by Vespasian
and Titus to please the sportive Romans
at the beginning Of this era.
Rather let us come up from the city
by trolley, as most of the visitors will
do, and approach the exposition from
the south. It is a close four miles from
the business center of Buffalo to the
southern gates Of the exposition, but
no city ever had better street railway
system than this, and it is short ride.
Several hundred new cars have been or
dered for the Pan-American year, and
a 5 cent fare will take passengers from
any point in the city, no matter how
remote, to the gates Of the exposition.
The ride is through as beautiful res
idence section as any city can boast.
There are miles upon miles Of smooth
asphalt pavements. bordered with green
lawns, embowered with naples and
elms. Nearly every dwelling has
broad veranda, shaded with vines or
banked with brilliant blossoms. Every

this elysian highway One may well
believe there is a subtle plan back of 1t
all. Undoubtedly we are victims of a
latent conspiracy. By these delicate in
struments-the play of color on the
eye. the waiting of invisible floral
incense to the keen nostrils, the
song of birds unseen among the
branches all about, the soft dip Of
oars in the limpid lake, the melody of
cool cascades - these are soothing the
mind and preparing its receptive pow
ers for the burst Of splendor which
