 Evening His Visit to Connecticut.

New York, Aug 30.-This is 'Bry- an day" in New York, and although the Nebraskan, who last night slept on a yacht on Gravesend Bay, will rot again put foot on native soil un- til late this afternoon, the many well coming delegations in town were early astir putting the finishing touches on their several and varied programs. The weather signs were not propitious, but the enthusiastic welcomers did not have their eyes on the skies.
 It was after 1 o'clock this morn- ing when MT Bryan retired on board of Colonel Goltra's yacht Illini. but 1t had been planned not to disturb him early to-day and he tookedvan- tage of the opportunity to. fortify his physical powers against the fatigue of to-night's meeting at Madison Square Garden.
 At the home of Lewis Nixon at Stapleton, Staten Island, where MT Bryan spent last evening with per- sonal friends, he appeared in robust health. He has a clear complexion and his eyes shone and danced as he talked.
 While Mir Nixon and his guests were at dinner the Jacob II. Tam association of Tompkinsville, which became active as soon as iI was known that Mir Bryan was expected, unloosed a lot of fireworks. Shortly after dinner Mir Bryan was serenaded by the M. c. V. Elnigheit German Singing society, thirty strong. This is the society which took the third prize at the international singing contest. Its first number was My Old Kentucky Home" German se- lections followed. MT Bryan made a short speech, thanking the. singers and telling them that he would al- ways remember the incident. Sev- eral of the singers were introduced to MT Bryan, and expressed wish to meet Mrs Bryan.
 When Mrs Bryan was taken out by her husband. Mir Bryan said:
 'I have no German blood in my veins. but my wife has. All of my German is in my wife's name. so I can't thank you in the language of your fatherland."
 Were all good Americans now" said the leader of the society.
 Those who love their .fatherland always love thu. land of their adop- tion and make fhe best kind of citi- zens." Mir Bryan replied.
 There were several callers later in the evening. among them Burton c. Harrison. One of them asked Mir Bryan what he thought of the pho-

The First Conference.

Erivan, Russia, Aug 30.-The first general conference of Armenians opened to-day at the Etchmiadzine monastery which is the seat of the Armenian Catholic patriarch.

Quit Work Again.

Rumford Fals. Me. Aug 30.-The 250 girl operatives of the Continen- tai Paper Bag Co of New York. who understood last night that they had been granted an increase of 25 cents day for which they struck last week, again quit work to-day and the mill was shut down.

Because of this they left the mill to- day shortly after commencing work.

 In the reported quarrel at the pal ace bitter words are said to have passed eliminating in Palma de- nOuncing Capote as a traitor. The yice-president Is said to have replied that Palma was president without power.

 "Sir:-I wish 1t were In my power to be present at the time when the erection of the Conway memorial Is to be celebrated. As this Is not pos sible. will you let me express through you my sincere appreciation of the action taken in erecting this memor- ial. Conway stands as typical of the best among those admirable enlisted men of the army and navy to whom this country can never pay too great homage. The fidelity and patriotism of the sailor as shown under the most trying and difficult circumstances when his commanding officers proved faithless. should be graven On the hearts not only Of our people as a whole. but especially. upon those of our people who filled the regiments of our army and manned the ships Of our navy. I again congratulate you upon thus commemorating his sturdy loyalty.
 Sincerely yours.

There is silverY frost ON your hair, old boy
There are lines OH your forehead, too:
Butyour clear yes speak of the peace and
joy
That dwell in the heart OF you.
Dor the passing of youth you have no re-
greet.
No sigh for the summer gloam
Anf the lovers moon They are with
you yet
In the light of the lamp at home.
InyOur summer of youth, in that sunny
hour
That will come to you never again,
When you wooed your love, as The bee the
flower,
The sweets that You gathered then
You have hIved and stored for your later
life,
And your heart is the honeycomb--
ALL I've seen your face when you kissed
your wife
In The light of the lamp at home.
oh, gon rare old lover! Oh, faithful
knight
With your sweetheart of long ago,
YOu are many days from the warmth and
light
OF the summers you used to know;
But you need not yearn for the glamour
ard gold
otthe fields you were wont to roam,
Oh, the light for the hearts that are grow
ing old
Is the light of the lamp at homel

We have heard it rumored that one trick

delegates to the state convention who
would only vote one or two times for
Hoke Smith il case there was not sufici-
emf to nominale him on the fist ballot
(whichit looks like now there will be
enough and to spare.j These men to vote
for Smith short while then goto another.
Get the slogan be in this campaign.
PUT NONE BUT HoKE SMITH MaN ON

Let them be dy ed in the wool, all wool
and a yad wide.
The law says that the supporters of the
successful candidates shall be appoir ted
as delegates. This is a right that must be
observed and the voters should look 10 it
that this is observed strictly and to the
letter.
