ALBEE COMPANY'S
TAURUS HAD HIS
OWN CELEBRATION

There was a very exciting halfhour at
Keith's theatre last evening and for a
time II seemed as II Stage Director
Turner, ordinarily a mild and quiet little
chap. would have special fireworks
demonstration.
The excitement was caused by the dis
covery by Assistant Stage Director Hull,
Just before the second act Of Blue
Jeans" that the wreath and floral dec
orations Of the bull used I'm the barbecue
scene were missing. Il know l put il
around his neck" declared Billy Burke.
the chief property man. Then began the
search.
Mr.. Turner Mr. Hull. Mr. Burke and
his assistants began II. but soon all the
stage hands and members OF the Albee
company were wildly searching for the
missing decorations. What's the use Of
having bull and a barbecue scene II we
have no decorations?' walled Miss Nc
Caull. See how lonesome his poor neck
looks" added Mr.. Ingersoll
Suddenly, just as Frank Losee sug-
gested hanging a chain Of fire crackers
around the bulls neck in place OF the
wreath Mr.. Hull espied the bull calmly
chewing at something. Eureka" he
cried. The search Iarty halted. and Mr..
Hull triumphantly pulled from the bulls
mouth the last remaining flower from the
indigestibe wreath. The bull had. for
pastime. eaten its wreath; and he went 10

London, July 5.-In a speech that was
Interrupted frequently by applause Will
liam jennings Bryan last night scored
the idle rich and held them responsible
for many Of the ills suffered by socloIy.
The keynote of his address, which was
delivered at the Independence Day ban
quet given by the American society here.
was a plea for the recognition of the
mobility Of labor.
The banquet, as usual was ATTENDED by
n company limited only by the capacity
of the largest banqeting hall I'm the city,
Interest centred chiefly in Mr.. Bryan,
who. as he said himself enjoyed the first
opportunity In 10 months OF addressing
his fellow citizens. He admitted that IL
required all his strength OF will TO refrain
from indulging in political speech.
Ambassador Reid, who preceded him,
had. however. challenged him on one
point on which he could not refrain from
replying. Mr.. Reid had said: at home
as citizen, i have openly and squarely
opposed him at every stage OF his con-
spieious career, and am reasonably sure
when at home TO continue 10 do the same
ABROAD. as the official representative Of
the entire American people, l am glad
40 welcome him here as a typical Ameri-
can, whose whole life has been lived I'm
the daylight. and whom n great host OF
my countrymen have so long trusted and
honored. / believe that he is now as
satisfied as / am, though by a differenl
process of reasoning. that the country
which we both love and try TO serve has
mot been ruined by it's gold"
BRYAN'S RETORT
Mr. Bryan Joined In the laughter and
applause which followed this sally. Be-
fore beginning his speech, he remarked
quiZzically that IL the country had more,
as all were willing TO admit, such enor-
NOUS progress on, one leg. what would II
have done IL IL had only had two less. II
was some time before the speaker was
able TO continue. owing to the uproar
caused by this retort.
Mr. Bryan took for his subject THE
White Mans Burden" After dwelling
on the great benefits the spread OF the
English language has conferred on the
races OF the orient, he made a strong
plea for arbitration OF difficulties be-
tween nations as a preventive OF war.
But the horrors OF war. he pointed out,
were not the greatest evils in the life
of nations.
Let me go step farther he said.
'and appeal for clearer recognition Of
the dignity OF labor, The odium which
rests upon the work OF the land has
exerted baneful influence the world
around. The theory that idleness is NOR,
honorable than toil-that 1t is more re-
