"The Common People
Hear Him GIadIy!"

Last week Springfield CMass.) man
who signed himself Democrat" sent
q communication to the Springfield
Republican, criticising it's Boston cor
respondent for his good words in
behalf of Mr. Bryan. The Democrat"
also wanted to know why Mr.. Bryan
had been invited to New England
as nobody wanted to hear him."
Events have fully answered the last
query of the Springfield Democrat"
with regard to those who wanted to
hear Mr.. Bryan, and the reply Of the
Boston correspondent, which follows,
seems TO dispose of all objections
raised in the complaint against him:
This is Mr.. Bryan's day at Nan
tasket, and l will not anticipate what
ne is going to say, and what all your
readers will see before this letter meets
their eyes. Even your disgusted Dem
ocrat, who voted for Bryan two years
ago, and seems to he sorry for 1t,
will probably sean the speech with
eager interest, though he rebukes his
party leaders for inviting the chief
tain of the party If he is old enough
to remember Henry Clay, or has read
Schuras life of that Kentuckian he
should reflect mot on me, bun on the
fact that Clay was defeated for Pres
ident not less than three times before
the people-in 1894, 1881, and 1874
1640-yet remained chieftaln of his
party till his death in 1850. The idea
of holding Wing meeting to which
Clay was to be invited, but not al

There are not very many transpar

but this is not the case with the trans.
parent cells. Each of them, when
looked at from one side, appears to
have seven large black spots arranged
at nearly regular intervals along the
length of its body; but closer examina.

the spots are on the left side and four
on the right, and irregularly spaced
