MI. Bryan's Suit of Silver Gray.

William Jennings Bryan. jr., arrived in
New York yesterday ahead of his father.
and as a result of his coming the following
story is told In a dispatch today:
while coming across. Mr.. Bryan con-
fided the story of a donkey ride to num-
her Of his fellow-voyagers. IL happened In
Manila. Bryan the elder took donkey
ride into the surrounding country The
road grew rough. the donkey was erTatic.
and Mr.. Bryan was thrown on to the ground.
Lying on the Fat of his back, he remarked,
laughingly:
This is the third time I've been thrown
by donkey
Another passengers version OF the tale
had IL that Mr.. Bryan said:
" 1 hope this is not prophetic
a third account was that Mr.. Bryan.
who had on silver gray suit, said:
" I think I woI I ride the donkey again
until have clothes Of a different color "
That donkey ride In Manila may become
historical Already il shows signs OF as
Stunning that aspect. Note the different yer-
sions Il takes time TO crystalline tradi-
tiOn. Until Mr. Bryan himself stamps the
whole tale with all its variations as false ii
may be accepted as measurabiy true
on the point OF the last variant of the
tale there will be more than passing inter-
est IN this country 1t is OF especial con-
Germ In view OF a significant note uttered
by the leading democrats OF the state OF
Washington who the other night expressed
their Endorsement Of Mr.. Bryan for the
candidacy in 1905 on the condition that he
sheds has free silver coat"
Maybe Mr.. Bryan win be accommodating
on this last proposition. Perhaps he has no
further decisions on the score OF the white
metal. Certainly. the events OF the past
ten years should have effectively persuaded
him that the United States does not believe
IN free silver at sixteen to one. Mr.. Bryan
Ls nobody's fool. and he can probably see
through a milestone as easily as the mex,
man.

The Dull Boy.
From the Philadelphia Ledger.

From the Philadelphia Ledger
If the list of college graduates who carry
off the "honors" fixed the status OF the
dull boys for life the outlook would be
rather depressing. Statistics show that
the men who are distinguished in their
college careers, as rule, reach distinction
and leadership in some form in the world.
but the number of graduates standing
dangerously near the foot of the class who
have achieved notable success in the pro-
LESSONS and other pursuits Is encouragingiy
large. The slow boy in school often gives
an excellent account of himself In the
fierce competitions of after life. Some
youths develop very slowly, and do not
Immediately find their vocation. The honor
men at the university must possess adapta-
bility for the mastery of all or nearly all
the studies in the curriculum Deficiency in
mathematics may reduce the rank of the
student who is an adept in the languages.
Greek may be stumbling block to the
youth who may be mathematical genius.
Outside the college walls the graduate can
develop along chosen lines and find his
sphere. The eclectic courses are often
found of great value in directing the stu
dent in intellectual paths to which his
capacity and inclination naturally lead
him.

Flag Day.

Washington celebrates Flag day with the
greater enthusiasm because of the fact
that the observance of the anniversary
originated in this city. eleven years ago.
The suggestion that the birthday of the
national banner be commemorated by APP
propriate ceremonies in the schools and by
the display of the colors by citizens was
adopted with spirit. Patriotic societies
quickly appreciated the value of an annual
recognition of the flag as the symbol OF
the republic and fostered the movement
in way to insure its spread. Flag day Is
in consequence generally observed through
out the United States.-and the result is
ccuntry-wi9e increase of respect for the
emblem of the Union.
1t is highly important to direct the minds
of the children toward the flag as some
thing more than a bit of decorative punt-
ing. The flag token of organization,
as the sign Of power. as the banner Of a
free people. as the symbol of high orin-
cipies of citizenship is concept which
cannot be too early presented to the juve-
nile mind. The boy and girl who at school
are brought to appreciate the Significance
of the colors and to know the history OF
the banner will be the better man and
woman for the experience.
Such sentiments as are evoked on flag
day are in high degree constructive. They
make for better living. The flag stands for
equal chances for all and for the safe
guarding of the rights of the most humble
true appreciation of the flag In all its sig
nificance Is not likely consciously to tres
pass upon the rights of others or to break
the laws. The flag stands for order and
peace and progress 1t has never stood for
aggression and rapacity.
The songs and recitations of the young
folks today should be regarded by parents
and teachers as the first expressions of that
love for the flag which in later life is be-
tokened by the habits of good citizenship,
loyalty to the principles of government. re-
spect for the statutes and. when emergency
arises. a willingness to sacrifice personal
comfort or security In order that the great
organization may continue In strength for
good.

of the laws and regulations. The use OF
wood In the construction, the choking OF
halls and fire escapes with infiammable- ma
terials and other illegalities contributed
to a condition which invited horrible
holocaust, Had the fire occurred in the
middle of the night scores must have per-
ished.
This tenement is typical of certain dis
tricts in downtown New York. For some
years charity workers have been trying to
secure cure of such evils Laws have
been enacted at their request. and In some
measure enforced. but so handicapped have
the reformers been by the unwliingness of
officials to insist upon proper construction
and regulation that their labors to safe
guard life and health have been in large
degree nullified. Landlords with pulls at the
city hall have managed to circumvent the
efforts of the phianthropists. The tenants
themselves. chiefly of an ignorant class.
will do nothing to help themselves. being
content IN the main to live in circumstances
which bid for their destruction.
Every such tenement il a monument to
the political corruption of the great city.
There Is virtually no eoncealment of the
facts. Every one understands that the
fight is between an honest desire to safe
guard life and dishonest desire to thwart
the laws for the sake of profits. Yet the
issue does not greatly stir the voters at
election time. The residents of the tene-
ment districts. who are directly affected,
continue to vote as they are ordered by
their ward captains. while the jewellers In
the better sections do not appreciate the
force Of the lesson in bad government which
are so frequently taught in the downtown
districts.
Washington's tenement conditions are
fortunately by no means so menacing. but
there are places here at the capital which
seriously need attention. The Commission
ers can move only so far in their efforts to
clean out the foul places and reform evils.
and they need new laws to strengthen them
in their fight for the decent housing of
the poor. Alley shacks continue to exist
and whole blocks are maintained in such
way as to invite disaster not only to
the occupants. but to the adjacent section.
There Is no official graft hero to block the
way to reform, but there is legislative in
.rtia. and the result Is just as deplorable.

why Washington "Rubbered" Toda

The average Washington neck Is aching

much more twisting than usual A genuine
@atrship'' floating through the localsatmos-

the past We have had pyrotechnics in
generous allowance We have seen some
sensational demonstrations of nature in the
heavens. But an airship. curling its way
around the Washington monument and
navigating In chosen course and paying
calls from point to point. was n novelty. We
have heard OF airships. of course. We are
not altogether provincial here. Some
Westinghouse have CHANGED to see these
dirigible ballons In other cities. A few have
seen them in Paris. where they are almost
common. But never before had one actual
