Democratic Convention at St.
Louis.
From Thursdays Daily1

St. Louis, Mo-, July w. J
Byran's entrance to the Demo
cratic National convention at st.
Louis this afternoon caused tre.
mendous and prolonged applause.
The reception rendered Bryan was
something remarkable and the ap-
plause grew greater every moment.
Delegates and visitors joined by
standing during the applause.
Standards of the states gathered
about Bryan, and the excitement
eQualed that at his nomination at
Chicago.
The Georgia delegation waved
Parker banner, the only one dis
played in the convention. Georgia. s
Parker banner was brought to the
front and taken charge of by New
York delegation. Hooting and
Kissing of Parker's name followed.
Parker banner was then brought to
the platform and South Carolina
nails it's standard to Parker ban
ner. Tremendous effort was made
to stem the Bryan stampede.
There was then a rush of standards
bearing state names to the speak
er's platform for Parker. The eX-
citement then subsided and the
convention was called to order at
2:36 this afternoon. Parker's
daughter and Mr.. Bryan shook
hands on the platform amid great
applause.
Committee on credentials then
called upon to report. Chairman
Head of Tennessee, read the report
of the credential committee while
the hall was as still as a church.
The band then played, "My Mary
land"
Bryan read the minority report
which was protested by the Illinois
delegation.
At the hour of going to press at
four o'clock no nomination had been
made.

S. O. Bass who died at his home

and came to Wisconsin when eight
years of age and located in Sauk
Co., where he resided for forty-two
years when he moved to Juneau
Co. where he has since lived. He
was veteran of the Civil War, hav-
ing been a member of Co. G. 49th

faithful member of the M. E.
church and leaves to mourn his loss
an invalid wife, four sons, one
grandson, one sister and two broth
ers, beside host of friends. The
funeral was held at the Dellona
church Thursday afternoon and the
b2dy was laid to rest in the Butter
field cemetery beside those of a
daughter and two sons.
It is indeed a sad home which has
so lately been bereft. Doubly sad
as the mother, who has been so
faithfully cared for by the departed
father, had to be removed to the
asylum the day after his death.
