Thursday night, the first poll
teal speech of the campaign was
given at the Lyceum by James J.
Bowler, of Milwaukee, for the
Democratic platform, and was lis
tened to by large audience. Mr..
Bowler gave good, clean and in
structive speech on the main is
sues of the campaign. He did no
mud Singing but put the planks
of the Republican and Democratic
parties before his audience in an
ineligible manner. He clearly
showed that the only way to cor
rect many of the evils of the gov
eminent now existing was by vot,
ing the Democratic ticket.

NEW FORM OF BALLOT.
Presidential Electors VIII be Printed

A new form of ballot will be
used at the election in November.
One cross at the top will vote the
entire ticket, including candidates
for the state, pgressional. legis-
lative and CO unW offices and pres

done by putting a cross in the

But the change comes in that
presidential electors are no longer
at the head of the ticket. They
are now at the bottom and in a
division set off by itself. The can

The labyrinth or maze Is popular attraction at every exposition. Coney Island has several of them, all exceed lngly simple in construction, but very difficult to find your way out of once you are fairly inside.
 Coney Islands mazes, and even the more famous and ingenious ones at Hampton Court, at Versailles and Scheyeningen. are mere toys compared with the two most famous labyrinths of ancient times. the plans of which are shown herewith. These are the Mceris labyrinth, in Egypt, and the Knossos labyrinth, in Crete.
 The Moeris labyrinth was square and built entirely of marble. In it were 3,QC0 buildings arranged in groups of twelve palaces. The outer wall was decorated with lines of statues; within are the twelve groups of palaces and in the center are the gardens, the walks of which constitute q maze within Il maze.
 The Cretan labyrinth was formed by Daedalus for Minos as prison for the minotaur to which twelve Atheniaa youths and maidens were offered every year. According to classical mytho- logv. Theseus, coming to Crete with q band of victims. received the clue to
