Kansas City, Mo-, June 5.-William
j. Bryan, in addressing the Jackson
County Democratic Club tonight, said
"In discussing the outlook for our
party, will say two things. We must
ever advocate our organization and
principles. A man who supported the
Republican party in 1896 must have J
big change of heart before he tries to
lead the Democratic party The party
must convert the men who have been
opposing it, and it must not be con-

A peculiarly interesting interview
was had reccHtly with Gaetano Bresci,
the murderer of King Humbert, who,
it is reported, has just committed sui
eide. He was at the time ii galley con

he had been For two weeks, condemned

and night. He never saw his fellow
prisoners. For the slightest infrac-
tion of the rules he was severely pun.
ished He was dying slowly and mis-
erably and suffered agonies in compar-
ison with which death by execution
would have, been a joy.
| Bresci was removed from the "liv-
| ing tomb" at Porto-Longone because
| the Italian government feared that an
archsts might attempt to liberate him
during the revolutionary uprising that
is threatening the country. He was
taken to his new horror on board the
Italian man-of-war Messaggero, and
the story of his departure and land
ing, which is told by young naval
officer who accompanied him, is melo-
/ dramatic and deeply interesting.

Pain in the body is often only the out
cry of starvation. You eat enough but

the nervous system is starving. Put the
