BRYAN.s vEnED THREATS.

The intimation thsr Mr. Bryan has
given In a number of interviews re-
Gently that he would bolt the st. Louis
convention if the ticket and the plat
form did not suit him, is producing
great deal of irritation in some quar-
tiers in the East. According TO what is
appearing In the public prints Demo-
Gratis Of prominence are saying they
don't care whether he bolts or not. In
deed. some of ghem are quoted as say
ing that they would rather he would
bolt than not. In their opinion 1t
would be a good thing for the party If
he should sever his connection with 1t.
It is pointed out that he would carry
nobody with him IN states on which the
Democratic party depends to elect its
ticket. No doubt there are Democrats
in the West who would follow him into
whatever party he might go, but he
would have no followers in the East
and South.
But there isn't any probability of Mr..
Rryan's boiling. We have said all
along that he still has hopes of being
elected President. He certainly doesn't
think enough of his ability as a leader
to found a new party and get elected
President in that way. If he were a
much ADLER man it would take him
good many years to establish new
party upon a sufficiently firm founda-
ton to enable it to draw to itself
many voters, unless he could md
an issue that would at once divide the
entire country into two camps. Such
an isshe he isn't likely to find. That
being the case, 1t is a safe proposition
that 1t is his purpose TO try and reach
the presidency as member of the
Democratic party.
The trouble with Mr.. Bryan is that
he thinks he owns the Democratic par
ty. and he feels that he has a grievance
when other leaders seem to nave more
influence with the party than he has.
AS a matter of fact, the party owes
aim nothing 1t honored him twice
with the nomination TO the presiden-
tial Office, and it found he couldn't
lead it to victory. II has therefore
done as much for him as he has any
right to expect. He ought TO be will
ing now TO do something for it, on the
lines marked out by the majority.
That il isn't going TO follow his lead
at st. Louis is evident from the fact
that few-very few-of the Democratic
state conventions have reaffirmed the
Kansas City platform. Indeed, in none
OF the states on which dependence is
placed for a Democratic victory have
Democrats had anything to say about
that platform.
They have apparently looked upon it
as being loaded down with dead is
sues. No. Mr.. Bryan isn't going to bolt.
He Is going to stand by the action of
the st. Louis convention. He may say
some unkind things about its action,
but he viii accept all it does.

Chancey's Deal with Morgan.

The rouble that young Robert Goe-
let recently encountered while driving
his automobile, because he did not have
s25 in his pocket with which to pay a
fine for exceeding the speed-limit, re-
calls the experience of Senator Chaun-
cey NJ. Depew year or two ago. says
the New York Commercial He went
over to New York from Washington,
and when he stepped off the ferry he
discovered that he had not a cent in
his pocket. He walked five or six blocks
without meeting anybody he knew. At
last he came to the office of J. Pier
pont Morgan and entered. A few min
utes later he emerged and met an in
innate friend on the sidewalk.
I've just been in to touch my friend
Morgan for nickel to pay my car-fare
uptown" he explained.
Did you get ito" his friend asked.
20. yes. He said he'd lend me half
a dollar If 1 wanted it. But l didn't
like to inconvenience him, so Just took
the nickel"

RACE TRACk BETTING.

The war that is being waged on pool
rooms in New York and other cities of
New York promises to bring TO an end
betting at the race track. In the
event that betting at the race track is
stopped there will be an end practi-
cally to horse racing in that state. ,.-
1t seems that the attorneys for the
pool room men have gone TO the State
Supreme Court and begun proceedings
TO put stop TO betting at the race
track. 1t is now claimed that there Is
no law against bookmaking inside the
race track fence, While betting outside
of that fence is a crime that is pun
ishable by two years in the peniten-
tiary.
The claim of the pool room attor-
neys is that 1t Is just as much of a
crime to gamble on the races inside of
the fence of the race track as it is to
gamble on them outside of it. AS a
matter of fact the law under which
the racing associations exist provides
for policemen on the track to prevent
gambling. For some reason, however,
on the races is permissible at the
race track
If the effort to prevent betting at
the track is successful it is safe to say
that horse racing will receive a set
back from which it will not quickly
recover. The breeding of fine horses
will be checked, and the whole horse
racing business will experience some
thing like innocuous desuetude. There
is no doubt that the Jockey Club of
New York is responsible for the
gambling on the races in that state.
The club controls the eight racing as
sociations of the state. The book
makers also have an association,
which is called the Manhattan Turf
| Association. This association pays
the Jockey Club for the privilege of
| operating at the tracks of the differ
ent racing associations. The amount
is about S4,0Oo,OOO season. The turf
association doesn't pay a fixed sum for
the privilege but buys, under agree
ment. so 1t is alleged. SIS. 900 worth of
tickets at each meeting. The money
is distributed BY the Jockey Club in
prizes, purses and other expenses.
When the betting on the races at
the tracks is stopped the racing asso-
Citations will make ready to go out of
business, because they are not willing
TO bear the heavy expense of conduct
ing the associations. Without the
gambling there would be but slim
crowds at the races. But If it is. de-
termlned to put a stop to gambling
the thing to do is to attack it at the
fountain head.

A Queer CIoels Incident.

Here is a strange but absolutely
true story. in which clock plays a
mysterious part, says the Liverpool
Post. 1t was a small American time
piece, which stood on the mantelpieee
in a sitting room in a Liverpool build
er's house. At a quarter past IL one
morning a few weeks ago the time
piece fell from the mantlepiece to the
floor, When picked up it was found
to be quite uninjured and still go
ing, as If nothing unusual had hap
pened.
There seemed TO be absolutely no
reason why it should have fallen, but
an hour later, when the builder came
home to his midday meal, he re-
marked that at a quarter past II he
fell from the top of a building, but
happily without sustaining any in
tury. His wife then described how
the clock had fallen at the same time,
and the couple pondered in vain over
the curious and utterly inexplicable
coincidence.

An almost incredible story of harsh

published in London for twelve days
without denial. hence there is a DISPOSE

of soldiers was drilling near the rail-
road when the Emperor's train passed.
As the train whisked by a sergeant
overheard a private remark: The
Kaiser might have let the train slow up
so that We could catch glimpse OF
him" The private was arrested, tried
