 Stones Landing is between Seattle and Tacoma, and a large number of Scandinavian-Amer belonging to the Swedish Society of Valhalla in Ta- coma, went there for the purpose of celebrating a holiday known as Swed- ish Midsummerday.
 The small steamer that took the crowd to the picnic grounds, tied up to the bridge, and after the festivities were over the people proceeded to em- bark on the boat and went on the bridge in large numbers.

WOULDN'T LET BRYAN
CHURCH TO SPEAK.

William J. Bryan and Rev. DR..
Newell Dwight Hills, pastor of
Plymotth church, IN Brookylp, stood
IN the rain outside the locked doors of
the church one Sunday night recently,
pleading with obstinate policemen to
let them in. says New York paper.
Mr.. Bryan had come to deliver his
lecture On foreign missions, bit the
church was so crowded that the doors
had been closed and locked.
The half dozen policemen on duty
were under orders to pass 10 one
inside. None Of the officers it
seemed, recognized Mr. Bryan ard the
minister when they arrived. Dr.. Hills
tried the vestry door. 1t was locked.
He shook the door and then knocked
loudly. The ushers inside, having
decided to admit no more pc rsons did
not respond. They believed Dr., Hills
and Mr.. Bryan we're alread inside.
Then Dr.. BILLS appealed to the
pollce. The bl0ecoats were deaf 10
explanation. It was orders, they said
at lsst sergeant Knocked on the door
ard asked that some one come ont
who was able to recognize Mr. Bryan
ard DR.. Hills. HIS Knocks had 70
more effect than those of DR.. Hills
The sergeant. now convinced of the
genuinene's of the claims of the wait
+ ing pair, became vexed and drawing
his night stick he raped so loudly
that the hammering resounded
through the crowded church. Only
then did the bolts slide back and the
door was opened. The address was
scheduled to begin at 7 40 o clock. 1t
was after 8 o'clock when Mr.. Bryan
and DR.. Hills were admitted.
Both took the incident good
naturally. Mr.. Bryan's face wore a
broad smile most of tho time. He
eaid to DR.. Hills "The next time
l speak in q church. Doctor, I will
choose one where they do not bar out
the pasto-, himself.
10 introducing Mr.. BRYAN, DR..
Hills said that no American did the
foreign missions owe more than to
the speaker of the evening. Mr..
Rryan's lecture was entitled The
Influence Of Christianity Upon the
Peope of Japan. China and India. !"
He spoke of the good work done
among the people OF the East BY
American missionaries. and made q
plea in behalf of q continuance Of
