This pre- diction has been fulfilled in the short time that has elapsed. When I was here said that would denounce the trust even insthe shadow of the starch factory. Where are the Republicans who mockingly wrote to me after the election and declared that the shadow of the starch factory reached across the state? How far does it's shadow reach now? The Democrats exhibited here today some of the banners that the Republicans carried in their parade. Why don't the Republicans carry them this year? Why have those banners been cast aside by the Republicans. I will leave five dollars with the chairman of this meeting to be given as a donation to the Repubii. can campaign committee in this city If the Republicans carry in their parade the banners which they taunt. ingly carried eight years ago"

MORSE IS ON TRIAL
bANAEH AND PROMOTER FACES
 FEDERAL COURT.
Jury is Ordered to Be LoeIxea IT, r..n Night and Placed Under CusrS~ Defense Expresses
 Fnaignation.

New York. Oct. 1.-The first day of the trial of Charles W. Morse. the banker and promoter. who came ia grief In the financial panic of last year, and Alfred H./ Curtis. former President of the National Bank of North America. which began today be- fore Judge Hough and a Federal furv developed two unpleasant surprisss tn the. defense, the Governments wifi nesses and to the jury.
 First, 1t was brought out that tbe jury will be locked up each night ana placed under the guard of Deputy IT. S Marshals. Next. 1t was revealed that all of the Governments material wit nesses have been under the surveiI- lance of secret service operatives and that they will be closely watched all during the trial.
 The lawyers for the defense express. ed indignation at the locking up of the jury and watching of witnesses. saw ing such a proceeding was without precedent in this city. in cases similar to the present trial and that it re. flected upon s-the lawyers of the de- fense.
 While the jurors did not express dis. satisfaction at the order which pre- vented them from going to their homes, they were evidently displeased, for the trial will probably drag along for at least six weeke.
 At the trial today much interesting testimony was brought out The in- troductIon in evidence of a power of attorney from MT. Morse to his secre- tary, Miss Katherine Wilson. empow- erinR her to sign checks, accept drafts and handle the account in the National Bank of America, was considered im- portant by the prosecution. A check for Sl0o, ,O0O credited to the bank and charged to the account of Mir. Morse, was also put in evidence.

How Beecher Got Even.

Two preachers not long ago were
discussing the men who have been
shining lights of the metropolitan pull
pits. and as a matter of course Henry
Ward Beecher led the procession of
"reminiscences.
"Beecher was never conspicuous
example of a preacher and pastor COM
bined." said one OF the men. He made
the preaching end of the work his
chief concern, and left the flock to be
pastorized by his assistants.
But once in a while he would de-
eide that he owed 1t to his parishion-
ers to make a round of calls. He him
self told me the following story of an
incident which had occurred on one
Of these expeditions.
"He had made out q list OF names,
had got the addresses from the church
directory-perhaps an old one - ana
was taking them in their most con-
yenient order. This brought him to a
house in which, according to his list,
lived q Mrs. b.
ut was a very modest house. and
when Mr.. Beecher rang the bell he
had to walt some time for response.
When this did come 1t was a very
irritated one in the person OF q wom-
an, who was evidently just from the
washtub.
"Ts Mrs. B in?" asked Mr..
Beecher In his best manner
Don't live here" snapped the wom-
an and slammed the door in his race.
"Mr. Beecher waited quietly on the
doorstep until the woman had GER
tainly had time to go back to the
basement and to resume her Washing
then he rang the hell again After
while the door was again opened
by the sudsy female.
".Who said she did exclaimed
Reecher. and went down the steps and
off up the street.
".And I'm inclined to think, ne
chuckled as he told the story. that
woman will treat civil question bet
ter the next time she meets one.

at her, and quietly. without a word,
he leaned and overlaid one hand over
hers, and gently pressed 1t In silent
recognition of the appreciation which
gowed in her large black eyes and
filled her whole being. At the close
of the concert he turned to her and
said:
my child we need no introduction"
AT her earnest request that he would
sit for her he readily consented, and
she modelled the bust from life. put

spiration and power, which alone can
give to it the touch of strength and
