Mrs. Edna Gockel-Gussen.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1906-08-18

The announced purpose of MT Bryan to take as small part as may be possible in this years campaign is a severe disappointment to Chair man Griggs and the members of the democratic congressional campaign committee. They had hoped MT Bryan would make speeches in prac- tically every close district and were counting largely on his popularity to enthuse the democratic rank and file. MT Bryan's policy has the approval, however, of those of his friends who are looking beyond this years con- test to the larger stake of 1908. The Bryan boom has grown to its present proportions with MT Bryan on the other side of the world. Things have been progressing very nicely, so nice ly. indeed, that men like Bailey of Texas, who have never been friendly to the Nebraskan, concede his nom- ination two years hence. What good purpose is to be served. therefore, by MT Bryan's return and participation in the campaign? If his nomination be already assured, 1t is not neces- sary that Mir Bryan should do any thing to push the boom along. And with him here making daily speech es, there would always be present the possibility of some untoward occur renee that would give the boom a setback.

The plans of the labor unions to retire Joe Cannon to the restfulness of private life would seem to have struck snag, says a Washington writer. It appears that the demo- crats of the eighteenth Illinois dis trict failed to comply with the pro- visions of the new primary law re- quiring that all parties elect their delegates to congressional conyen- tions at the same time. This would leave Mir Cannon with only a prohibi- tionist candidate to oppose him. and there isn't much likelihood that a sufficient number of democrats could be persuaded to vote for the prohibi-
 tionist to seriously embarrass the speaker. That he is in no danger of defeat. under these circumstances. becomes especially apparent when it is recalled that two years ago Mir Cannon had a plurality of about 15.- 900 and a clear majority over his three opponents of nearly 12,O0O. The kindness. or eareiessness, of the district democrats, there fore. leaves Speaker Cannon free to devote his time to helping less for turate colleagues without thought Of how affairs are progressing at home. One of the first fights in which he will take a hand will be that vaging up in Maine against Representative LittlefeId- LittlefieId and Cannon were among those most conspicuous ly marked by the labor leaders for defeat. and now that Uncle Joe need no longer fear their wrath he hastens naturally to the suecor of his fellow outczst

CYCLIST AT EIGHTY-SEVEN. R. B. Hughes Rides the Fifty-Seven Miles to Middletown and Back.

R. B. Hughes of New Haven rode to Middletown in four hours on Tues day, going by way of Durham and returning by way of Meriden, mak- ing fifty-seven miles. Part of the road was very bad.
 Mir Hughes is possessed of as good sight as ever and has no use for spec tacles. Mir Hughes was born in South bury in 1920. At the age of 16 he went to New Haven, joined a mili- tary company called the New Haven cadets. He also became a member of the Second company, Governors Foot Guard band. As these organizations disbanded few years ago, no other member is now known to be living. Mir Hughes organized and instructed many brass bands, orchestras and church choirs and played the organ in church for many years, invariably singing tenor, feat not known to have been accomplished by any other organist. ......
 He had many trades and made tools for manufacturing hoes, forks, rakes, cutlery, buttons, sewing ma chimes, clocks, pistols, carriage springs and many other goods.
 MT Hughes was leader of the cele- brated Wheeler & Wilson male quar- tet, which sang for Abraham Lincoln on his great campaign tour through Connecticut in 1860. Mir Hughes was a member of the legislature which convened in Hartford in May. 1851. more than half a century ago, being with one exception the youngest member of that body. Mir Hughes thinks there may be no one living who was a member of the Connecti- cut legislature previous to that date.

LOST HIS PANTS.
Paid 75 Gents for Them, and Grieved
 When They Were Lost.

New York. Aug 1S.-Old "Pat" Traynor. who has s20.OO0 in the bank and lives on 30 cents a week in a tenement at No 549 West Forty fifth street. called at the West Forty seventh street police station yesterday and complained that he had lost his pants He wore a greasy old and red flannel shirt without collar and a pair of dirty blue jeans.

 Detectives escorted the old man back to his hOme-tw0 small rooms up one flight Of stairs. The floors were bare and full of dirt, rags and old papers. A broken-down be.lstead with a grimy mattress and counter pane was set against one wall. and on a rusty cook stove opposite were a dirty kettle and a coffee pot. A Sllaky table and a rocking chair were the only other furniture. The detec- tlves looked under the bed and dis covered the pants"
 They must have fallen Off the nail" exclaimed the old man.

MAKES HIS WIFE HIS SISTER.
Pastor Renounces WedIock After
 Hearing Sermon at Revival.

Colorado Springs. Col.-Dr. I. D. Christie, pastor of New Mission church, and his wife have announced their intention to live together here after as brother and sister until death parts them.
 The couple have been married five years. and their decision. given out under dramatic circumstances, at a big revival meeting caused a sensa- ton. Before their marriage Dr. Chris tie and his wife had each been di. vorced. At a revival meeting in the New Mission church Rev. Charles W. Savidge, of Omaha. Neb.. in a ser mon denouncing d.-orce. declared that divorced persons who married again were lost beyond hope of redemption.
 Dr. Christie and his wife were in- tent listeners to the sermon. At It's conclusion they held a whispered con- ference. Then they approached the altar and thanked Rev. Mr. Savidge for enlightening them. Each con fessed to having been divorced before their marriage, and said they now wished 10 make amends fin the eyes of Cod
 In voice broken with emotion. Dr. Christie then addressed the people in the church, and announced that hence forth he and his wife would live as brother and sister. They would con tinue to occupy the same house. he said. eat at the same table and have other things in common. but here their relations would cease.
 The Christies. who have lived in Colorado Springs for the last five years. always have been highly es- teemed by their friends and neighbors. Mrs. Christie is stiii q young woman and considered handsome.

The future of the market for the next few weeks depends largely upon monetary conditions, says Banker Clews. All important factors are in favor of bullish manipulation except the money market. Rates for both call and time money are advancing, and this is suggestive. Bank reserves are low, and must go still lower; for the interior demands, which will be not less than $30,000,000, and per haps more, have not yet made them selves felt. This demand will have to be met either by a contraction of loans or gold imports. In case of emergency, Secretary Shaw may in crease his deposits with the banks and so soften the tension. In the face of such hindrances, however, a runaway bull market would have to overcome much opposition. The out look is one that calls for prudent op- erations, and purchases should be at tempted hereafter only on the pro- nounced breaks which may come when least expected, especially after the largely increased dividend influ- ence of the Union Pacific and South ern Pacific has spent its force. The announcements of $100,O00, 900 new stock by Chicago and Northwestern and $25 5,00O,000 by St Paul are not good arguments for higher prices.

SATURDAY. AUGUST IS, 1906.


 This political game is a queer one, indeed. For the latest illustration witness the scramble among alleged democrats to get into the band wagon. Men who knifed Bryan and the democratic party are now calling themselves the real article. Here is John B. Moran of Boston, who wants to be governor, for instance. He ac- knowledges that he opposed Bryan and voted for Mckinley, and now he expects the hearty endorsement of G. Fred Williams and his followers. If he gets it, we will have to ac- knowledge that the political game is even funnier than it looks.
