MISS LIBERTY COMES TO TOWN

1T is AN OPEN SECRET THAT THE POPULAR LEADING
LADY is DISSATISFIED WITH HER PART ON
LATEST GOLD PRODUCTION.

Miss Liberty, with the Big Stick"
in one hand and a Christmas tree in
the other and mounted on one of the
new twenty-dollar gold pieces of the
st. Gaudens's brand, rode into town
yesterday morning. She made her ap-
pearance in company with jolly
drummer, stopping at the Westcott.
1t is an open secret that the popular
leading lady is greatly dissatisfied
with her part in the latest gold pro-
duction. She is now in her 131st year
and her more charitable friends have
ascribed her present peevishness to
old age, but people who have been per-
sistently snubbed by her are giving
another reason. They say that she
feels the slight of being separated
from 'In God We Trust" which gave
her the open sesame to the most ex-
elusive circles.
How do l feel?" she repeated angri-
ly after the reporter put the question

Bryan.
His speech at the Iroquois Club din

a proffer of forgiveness to the gold
Democrats. He pleaded for party har-

Mr.. Bryan spoke tonight on the vim

since 1896. The Republican party, he
said, has been steadily falling from
