w. J. BRYAN'S DOUBLE.
His Name is Fred Fulcher and He Is
Il Waiter.

A special to the New York Herald from
Buffalo, n. Y, yesterday says:
Posing as William ]. Bryan, Fred Full
cher. a walter in the Ellicott Club, ad-
dressed fifty students of the University Of
Buffalo this afternoon. Not half dozen
of the students knew that they did not
listen to Mr.. Bryan, but only heard a
double Of the Nebraskan.
j. A. Stone, w. J. Curtin and T. Edmond
Redmond We're appointed a committee to
escort Mr.. Bryan to the Ellicott Club IL he
would consent to address the students Mr.,
Bryan had just dned with State Commit
teeman Norman f. Mack and John G. Mil
burn, and had left the club when the COM
mittee arrived.
A waiter was polishing a door knob His
likeness to Mr.. Bryan was striking He
was finally prevailed upon to take the place
of Mr.. Bryan, and, with the aid of a SLOUGH
hat and an improvised makeup he ap-
peared before the students.
Three cheers for William Jennings

then there was vigorous applause. The
waiter. with grave and dignified MEN,
bowed low.

Cuban policy of my successful rival, OF the
Porto Rican matter, but l can't 1 came
here solely for business.
MY visit possesses no political sgnifl-
canoe, and my conference today with Mr.
Mack was regarding the conduct Of my
newspaper. However, I will say this to
you. The ship of the democracy is as
stanch today as ever, and there will be
reckoning. Some day the present admins
tration will be forced to pay for the follies
being perpetrated by subsidized House
and Senate and by an Executive who pos
sibly is not as firm in many matters as one
could wish.
There will be a President Of the United
States elected in the year 1904 1t is too
early to make predictions, but mark YOU
well that when that time comes the name
Of Bryan may be heard again. That is all
that can say at this time
The students gave the double a cheer
as he retired.

A story is told of a very popular cav
airy officer. He was being tried for
drunkenness, and among other witnesses
was his Irish orderly. The court anx-
ious to give the officer every chance, put
several questions to this witness with a
view of eliciting any facts that might be
in his masters favor. When the orderly
said that his master, on going to bed,
had expressed wish to be called early.
the members Of the court martial were
distinctly pleased.
The man who gave special instructions
to be called early could not surely, they
argued to themselves have been drunk.
Hoping TO get favorable particulars, the
Judge advocate put a further question.
"Aud why did the major wish to be
called carly" he asked.
"Faith, aud because he toGld me it was
because he was to be queen of the May"
came the answer.
