great fancy for S~teuerwald's hotel.
Inst night 1t was said someone was
stealing a rig from the barn. Just
then Charles Grover arrived. A COL
ored man mustered up courage and
started for the barn, and Grover
slipped out Of a side door and got
ahead of him. When the man got
nearly to the barn, whom should he
see but Santa CLAUS. The fellow turn
ed and ran back through the hotel to
the street where a crowd of ladies

Memorial Services In Honor Of Goe-
bel ut Frankfort.
FRANKFORT, Ky, Feb. A. VIII
liam Jennings Bryan spoke here by
invitation of the Kentucky Legislature
to q crowd that filed the Capital thea
ter. Both bodies of the general as
sembly adjourned and held memorial
services in honor of the late Governor
William Gocbel in the hall Of the house
several members Of the legislature
made eulogistic addresses, and an orig
inal poem was red. Religious services
ut the grave were conducted by DR..
Arnold.
Mr.. Bryan was introduced by Gov
ernor Bcckham, who In presenting him
said that, though twice defeated, he
was the best loved citizen in public
life. Before MI. Bryan began speak
ing the lights were turned out for an
instant, and as they returned a life
size picture of William Goebel came
into view.
Referring to the late Governor Goe-
bel, Mr.. Bryan said his assassination
was encompassed by corporate infiii-
ences that had determined he should
never be governor. He said the man
who wrote to Goebel that he should
never be governor is alive now, and
his name is mentioned in connection
with the craftsmanship of the Demo
cratic national committee.
Mr.. Bryan devoted some time to
Grover Cleveland, saying that he be-
lieved President McKinley's indict-
ment of Mr.. Cleveland, in which Mr..
Cleveland was charged with making
money the master of man, was cor
rectly drawn.
Mr.. Bryan said he did not want a
reorganization Of the Democratic par
ty because he did vat won't the party
to take the mr. 1ne.
hands of the money power. CONNER
cialism in politics, he declared, was
now the greatest menace to the coun-
| try. He said he had heard Of n pre-
zinc. in Delaware where all the votes
were bought, and one auctioned of
brought $50.
He said the money question was no
more dead now than 1t was In 1895
and discussed at length trusts ana mo
nopolies, which, he said, were being
fostered under the Republican policy.
He also criticised President Roose-
relt's policy toward Cuba and on the
Panama question.

goods in any vessel to Japan. AL.
ready shipments from Canada via

again; and with their ability 10 ap.

crippled that it cannot fight.
