J. w. GLEED MAKES A SPEECH.
Delivers Temperance Talk Before
Ottawa w. C. T. Z.

J. W. Gleed, of this city, delivered an
address at Ottawa Sunday night before
the w. c. T. U. The address was in
the Methodist church and all the
churches of the city united in the ser
vices.
Mr.. GIeeds subject was National
Wealth" He discussed political econ
orny, which he said had to do with the
distribution of wealth so that the re
suit of the greatest good to the greatest
number will obtain.
But money and concrete property
are not the only wealth" declared MI
GIeed He said that if the people of
the United States were transported to
the Fiji islands and the Fiji islanders
were brought here and installed in the
place of Americans, this country would
quickly degenerate, despite its resour-
ces development, machinery and pros
perity.
I'm four years the Hottentots would
reduce this country to the state of their
own in South Africa" he said On the
other hand, the substitution of Ameri-
cans for Hottentots in Africa would
cause the desert to blossom like the
rose. Americas wealth consists in the
strength of the character of the indi-
vidual back of the wealth." he added.
Mr.. Gleed alluded to the temperance
question. declaring that liquor ruins the
full usefulness of the individual.

Benfer.
Then she, who had insisted upon the
right to wear masculine apparel, broke
down. and when she had been marched
up to the desk of the First precinct
station she told Sergeant Purcell this
story:
MY name is Lottie Horton. L am 20
years old, and I live in Syracuse. About
ten days ago I ran away with a boy
named Sidney Johnson. 1 was wearing
dresses then, and we Travelled in style
on the New York Central to New York.
I'VE intended to get married, but in
New York Sid's money gave out, and I
changed my clothes for these old ones,
and we took to the road. We were go
ing to work our way west, but Sid de-
serted me a couple of days ago-I don't
blame him so much, for must have
been an awful nuisance to MIN. Today
I walked over here from Jersey City

The recital got no further, for the
girl broke down and cried. Sergeant
Purcell turned her over to the matron,
and she was locked up in appropriate
clothing until her relatives in Syracuse
could be heard from.

Life Without Food Favored at Con-

Mystic, Conn, Aug. 31.-Two of the
principal speakers at today's meeting
of the Connecticut Peace society in
Mystic grove were G. G. Haskell of
Norwich and Bradford Peck of Brook
lire, Mass. The former, in his address
on Scientific Living, the Path to
Peace asserted that all war and
commotion arose over food and de-
clared that person could live from
fifty 70 a hundred days without eat

who said she was doing her house

Mr.. Folk. I come with gladness to
give to his candidacy any support that
/ can. When needed Democrats, Mr.
Folk was a warm supporter of the
party. He deserves the support, not
only of Democrats, but of Republicans
also. He is a young man; he wasn't
known four years ago. Now he is
better known than I was when 1 was
nominated for president. He has
gained distinction as a prosecutor of
corruption. He is worthy of the sup

Mr.. Bryan discussed the Imperial
