BODY on MARKET FOR $50.
John Barrett, 20 Years Old, Wants
to Sell His Body.

Deserted by his fortune, which

OF Middleton, Conn, offers to sell his
body for $50. The offer has been

hospital. at Washington, D. c. c..
to which it was made, but the offer
is still open.
Barrett is about 70 years old. and
although apparently hale and hearty
and likely to live many years more
he feels that his days are numbered
and rather than live in want he
would raise the $50 which will chase
the wolf away for while by giving
a lien on his body. He came to

KILLED By ENGINE.
Horrible Accident Occurred in Co,
lumbia Tuesday Night.

At Columbia Mr.. James E. Mikell
met a. horrible and almost instant
death Tuesday night just a few
minutes before the hour Of midnight
at the corner of Gervais and Lincoln
streets. He was struck by Seaboard
passenger engine at the point where
the tracks Of the Seahoard cross
Gervais street and his body was drag
ged about 100 feet north before the
engine passed over it.
Mr. Mikell has been employed for
several weeks by the Seaboard as
substitute watchman, and Tues
day night he was on duty at the
Gervais street crossing. next to the
Seaboard station. Wien the south
bound passenger train arrived at H.
45 p. NJ, he was at his post and
readily gave the proper signals. The
engine which brings this train to Co.
lumbia from Portsmouth is relieved
here by another engine and crew. The
engine which brought the train into
the station had transferred to the
siding and was backing. going north
TO the Sydney park yards, when it
struck Mr.. MikelI.
The engineer. Mr.. Jas Horton.
evidently failed to observe that his
engine had struck any object. for he
made no stop after striking the man
and was not aware that he had run
over and killed man until some 20
minutes afterward when the agent
called him over the telephone and
so informed him.

VICTORY FOR BRYAN.
REPUBLICAN LEADERS ADMIT
DEMOCRATS HAVE CHANCE.
Hand Throttle Of Party Machinery
is Hand Of More Seasoned Engi-
neer-:attention to New York.

In the view OF practical politicians
in Washington the Democrats have
started well at Denver 1t is candid
~ admitted by prominent Repub-
licans there that the beginning of
the campaign is under more auspi-
cious circumstances for the Demo-
Gratis than at any period of the party's
history since 1892. No one attempts
TO account for the fact that harmony
seems to have prevailed at Denver
to an unusual extent, and that the
whole party machinery seems to have
been better oiled than at any time
for sixteen years. The only eXplana-
ton offered is that the hand of the
man at the throttle was that OF a
more seasoned engineer than in past
years. Mr.. Bryan, according to
shrewd observers, mas learned some
things. Years have brought with
him the knowledge Of placating op-
posing elements. instead of putting
them at each others th-oats.
Men who were ten days ago declar-
ed that Bryan had no earthly chance
of election in November now admit
that the beginning made at Den
yer is such as to ensure rafting
campaign and possibly. Democratic
victory 1t all depends, they believe,
upon whether the Democratic cam
paign is smoothness as the prelimi-
the same smoothness as the prelimi-
nary stages. If il is November may
bring tidings of a change in govern
ment control.
There is little question, in the
minds of politicians that the fight
to be made by Mr.. Bryan will be
in the West and Middle West. That,
it is pointed out. is plainly shown in
the platform. Mr.. Bryan went out
Of his way to put up a platform
that would catch the Western people.
and as plainly as if he had said 1t /
himself the declaration OF principles
of the Democracy appeals to west
nrn sentiment and thought. MIR. Bry-
an will depend for his election upon
the South, with Nebraska, Kansas,
Minnesota, Illinois. India
ga and the Dakotas, and he expects
to give Mr.. Taft great fight in Ohio. |
where the Republican party is still
torn with dissension. 1t is doubtful,
according to political reasoning, If
the Democrats will give the slightest
to single Eastern State,
unless it is New York. And whether
they will do that will depend upon
the developments in the entire State
Mr.. Bryan plainly says to the ccun-
Try that he has studied sentiment IN
