The Largest Rat.

What is unquestionably the strang-

the menagerie Of the great Cole Bros.
Show when it comes to Vinita, on
Monday, Oct. a. Not only is it the
strangest animal in captivity, but 1t
is the only one of its kind ever placed
on exhibition in this country. 1t is
member Of the rat family and is
known as capybara, and thriyes only
In the most uusrequented sections OF
South America.
Imagine rat weighing 2S0 pounds
with huge head, an upper lip a foot

idea Of the beast He is the largest
of the rodent tribe, and has harsh,
coarse hair, more like bristles than fur
This nair is mixed black and yellow,
Of oingy appearance. In his native
haunts the capYbara has a huge, fat
ston &C which almost drags on the
ground. He is a water loving animal
and can dive and stay under for eight
or ten minutes at a time. The jaguar
of South America preys upon the ca
pyoara, and the Indians kill him for
his flesh, which, when smoked, is said
to be as dillcious as Watkins Brand
Kentucky ham, although it has a GER
tain mnsky flavor. The capy bara
makes a noise, when alarmed, some
what between a dogs bark and a pigs
grunt. He was once called the hydro.
choerns, or water-dog and lives on a
vegetable diet.
Every attempt heretofore made to
secure one OF these animals for exhibi-
tion purposes has been unsuccessful
as death followed captivity. The cap

"A systematlc enoru - ooinS

William J. Bryan is nominated
for president next year he is fore
doomed to defeat, says the
Omaha World-Herald.
TO reasonable and intelligent
men, who know from whence
these stories emanate, what in
spires them, what lies behind
them, what men are hidden in
the woods directing the cam
paign of detraction, ridicule and
drivil, there could be no better
proof Of Bryan's strength. He
is one Of the few public men to
love because of the enemies he
has made, and to be respected
because of the depth and inten-
sity of their fear of him. Such
enemies as Bryan has made do
not turn all their batteries on the
forlorn leader Of a lost hope.
Writing in the Buffalo Times
John Sayles attempts to show,
from recent history, that to-day
Bryan is the most popular Dem.
ocrat in the United States and
that he "can poll million more
votes than any other candidate
the Democratic party can name.
He makes a convincing showing
by comparing the Bryan vote in
1896 with the Democratic vote in
1894, and again by comparing
Bryan's vote in 1900 with Judge
Parker's vote in the humiliating
campaign of 1904 And there
can be no doubt that Bryan. in
1896, when he polled a million
more votes than any Democrat
ever polled before, was a stronger
candidate than any other his
party could have named.
The question to consider at this
time is whether Bryan is stronger
today or weaker than he was in
1896 and 1900.
And here the argument and
evidence is overwhelmingly Que
way. 1t is strange that any men
should be able to shut their eyes
to the tremendous revolution
that has been wrought in the po-
litical sentiment Of this country
since Bryan last ran for presi-
dent. 1t is strange that
there are any who fail to grasp
the meaning Of the fact thai
whereas Bryan's views were un-
popular with majority of the
voters in 1900 his views today
are overwhelmingly dominant

Forty American Jews and Jewesses

stead Of so doing had applied their hard
