BRYAN BOOM STARTS ANEW
GREAT. ENTHUSIASM GREETED
HIS APPEARANCE IN CHICAGO.

The Democratic Leader Declined the
Honor, and Declares He is Not an
Aspirant for the Presidency.
William Jennings Bryan, soon to
leave for a tour of the world, was the
recipient of notable testimony of
esteem Monday night at a banquet
given in his honor by the Jefferson
club of Chicago.
Congressman Henry T. Rainey of
Illinois spoke of ''our obligations as
world power, at home and abroad. )"
Congressman Rainey's address had as
its keynote trade expansion and the
need of tariff revision.
Mayor Dunno was cordially greeted
as he rose to speak on "The Progress
of Municipal Ownership" He eulogiz-
ed Bryan and predicted the ultimate
triumph of the principle of municipal
ownership.
Ollie M. Jones of Kentucky brought
out round after round of applause by
the eulogy of Bryan and the plea for
democratic harmony with which he
closed a speech in which he declared
that Bryan had long ago declared in
favor of crushing the trusts, reforming
the tariff and bringing to arbitration
all international disputes.
In a brief address Judge J, B.
Tarvin of Covington, KY, declared
for Mr.. Bryan as the standard
bearer of democracy in 1908.
Mr.. Bryan then rose to speak. He
was greeted with an enthusiastic dem
onstration, and it was some minutes
before the applause subsidized suf1i-
GENTLY to allow him to proceed.
Il want to make my position per-
fectly clear: want to say to you that
not only am [ not announcing can
didacy, but | am not permitting a can
didacy."
In these words William Jennings
Bryan administered a check to the en-
thusiasm which greeted the speeches
advocating his nomination for the
third time for president.
81 am not nOw," said Mr.. Bryan,
"a candidate for any Office. | have
never said that [ would never again
be a candidate for Office. but [ want to
say now that talk of candidacy for
Office does not affect me as it once did.
[ believe that my place in history will
be determined not by what the people
are able to do for me, but what [ am
able to do for the people applause
and cheers. | think it is now too soon
to choose a candidate for president to
make the race three years from now:
it is too early to pledge ourselves to
any one man. | trust that before the
time comes to name a man for the next
presidential race light may be thrown
upon our pathway and that a man
may be chosen who will be able to do
for the party more than [ have yet
been able to do"

CHIEF JUsrIcE SIMMONS DEAD.
Head of Georgia Supreme Court Pass
es Away After Long Illness.


Chief Justice Thomas Jefferson Sim
mons of the supreme court of Georgia
died Tuesday morning at 5 O'Clock, at
his home in Atlanta, after long lin
gering illness which had played upon
his vitality until he could no longer
withstand the ravages.
While the death of Justice Simmons
had been rather expected for some
days, the physicians having pronounc-
ed his malady, or rather complication
of diseases, incurable, the announce
ment of it did not come without shock
to his many friends over the state.
Following his service to the confed-
eracy as a soldier in the cause of
state rights he gave his untiring ener-
gies as legislator towards rebuild
ing the state during the trying days of
reconstruction, and he served Georgia
we'll both in the constitutional conven-
ton of 1868 and 1877. Following this
service began his career of nearly 80
wears on the bench, first in the supe-
rior court and afterwards as supreme
court Justice, from where he stepped
upward to the chief justiceship upon
the resignation of Chief Justice
Bleckley.
Justice Simmons was a member OF
the Primitive Baptist church. His re-
mains were inferred at Macon.

YANKEE INGENUITY WINS OUT
How a Little Bug Attacks a Sacred
Tree and Yankee Varnish Makers
Profit Ivy the Operation.

Yankee ingenuity has invaded the
ranks of East Indian superstition, with
the result that tree sacred to the re-
ligious rites of the HindOO has been
made to pour gold into the Golfers Of
the American manufacturer.
There is a little bug in India which
operates on a sacred tree, attacking
the small branches and making them
give forth their hoard of juices, so
that the twigs, when attacked by the
bug, drip sap like a molasses barrel
with a crack in its side. This sap
hardens into gum called sticklac,
which is the basis of the shellac of
commerce: and the bug which causes
all the trouble for the twig and the
profit for the shellac manufacturer is
valuable for use in making lac dye.
When the sticklac, with the insects
which are entombed in it, is melted
the bugs rise to the surface of the
mass and are SKINNED off.
At the Lewis and Clark Exposition
an enterprising varnish firm has on
exhibition some twigs from the sacred
Indian tree which are covered with
sticklac. An attendant explains the
story of the triumph of Yankee indus
try over Hindoo religion to an inter-
ested crowd that thrOngs the Palace
of Manufactures, Liberal Arts and
Varied Industries, attracted by the
many interesting displays which it
contains.

Unconscious Nearly Five Months.


One of the most prolonged cases Of
coma known to medical science recent
ly came to an end at YOnkers, n. Y.
The victim was Charles Canepi, boy
Of eight years, who died after lying I'M
conscious 145 days. The little fellow
was stricken after returning from the
woods with a bunch of wild flowers.
He then complained of pains in his
head Within two hours he was I'M
conscious. Various reports of the boy
moving or speaking proved untrue.
For more than a month the only food
he consumed was given him in injec-
tons but for the last three months he
swallowed peptonized milk and whites
Of eggs when placed in his mouth by
the nurse.

NATIONAL FLOWER QUEST.
Chicago Gardener Is Trying to Grow
TricOIOr Chrysanthemum.


TricOIOr Chrysanthemum.
Joseph Frey, head gardener in lin
coin park, at Chicago, is seeking to give
the United States a national flower in
the form of a chrysanthemRm plant
which will grow red, white and blue
blossoms, says a Chicago Dispatch.
The experiment of hybridizing chrys-
anthemums and asters, which are close
ly related to the Japanese flower, has
been going on in the conservatory at
Lincoln park.
Frey has created many wonderful
combinations in flowerdom. The sue
cess or failure of the plan will be re-
vealed by the last of October, when
the chrysanthemums and Siberian as
tiers begin to head and bloom.
At the last annual chrysanthemum
show in Lincoln park Frey displayed
hybridized chrysanthemums which pre-
scented the colonial cOlors, yellow and
white blossoms growing on one stalk.
This caused him to undertake the more
difficult problem of growing red, white
and blue blossoms on one stalk.

NEW LAW CURES DEFECTS
NEW VAGRANCY ACT MORE Eff
FECTIyE THAN CALVIN LAW.
No Bond Is Allowed, But Violators
Must Suffer as for Misdemeanor.
Vagrancy Defined.

1t is about time that the new va
grancy law was being put to test in
this section, as there are many sub
jects that would come under 1t.
The new law is different from the
Calvin law in several respects, and
one very material difference is the
fact that under the new law a vagTant
can't make a bond. The former trials
merely established, or did not estab-
fish, the fact that the defendant was a
vagrant If the fact Of vagran cy was
established the judge assessed the va
grant a bond to insure that he would
20 to work; if he could not make the
bond he went to jail or to the chain
gang for a stated period OF time. IN
der the present law vagrancy is placed
exactly on the same footing as every
other misdemeanor, and if a man is
convicted of it he is given a fine, with
Jail or changing sentence for a stated
period of time. Under the present law
vagrancy is placed exactly on the
same footing as every other misde-
meanor. and if man is convicted of
It he is given a fine, with jail or
Chang gang sentence as an alterna-
tive. He is not permitted to give
bond, and thus guarantee that he will
go to work.
Officers Get Pay.
Under the present law compensation
for the court officials in vagrancy
cases is provided Thus a monetary
Incentive is provided which will no
doubt result in making all officers OF
the law more active.
Migrants are defined as:
persons wandering or strolllng
about in idleness, who are able to
work and have no property to support
them.
-. Persons leading an idle, i'm
moral or proAigate life, who have no
property to support them, and who
are able to work and do not work.
SO. All persons able to work, hav-
ing no property 10 support them, and
who have no visible or known means

CHICAGO STRIKE MORE SERIOUS.

$500 drivers are out, and the number will

were out In most Of the big State street
stores then, and 1t was realized that there
must BE- a finish.
Business was badly crippled to-day.
Within the next two days Il may be paralyzed
but the merchants have weighed the con-
sequences and are ready for the issue.
That q Federal injunction will be asked
for tomorrow is practically certain, and
that Federal troops will follow the issuance
Of the injunction Is the belief Of the en-
ployers as well as the fear Of the labor
leaders. No one expects that the police
will be able TO cope with the situation,
which Is hourly growing worse.
Threats TO extend the strike 30 as to include
every union man and woman in Chicago
are heard. and some Of the radicals are
openly advocating such a policy. Every
business In Chicago with three or four
exceptions will be involved. Restaurants
and hotels we're affected TO some extent
to-day. and thousands Of patrons Of the
department stores had to carry home
their bundles.
Strike leaders announced to-day that
newspapers, hospitals and all undertaking
establishments would be excepted from the
strike list. The United States mail wagons
WILL Of course, not be interfered with.
Beyond these exceptions no promises are
made. Even cab drivers will not haul
patrons 10 the department stores where
the strike Is on. The business OF the seven
railway express companies was almost
completely tied up to-day, as far as delivery
by wagons lies.
The packers have not been drawn into
the conflict yet. but their drivers hAyeOFdsFa-
not 20 haul meats 10 any Of the express
depots or to railway depots when the goods

probability result in a strike Of packing
