There was doubt, too. concerning the
attitude of the Bryan element Those
who favor the Nebraskan's nomination
for the presidency were demanding at
least half of the district delegates which
are to be selected during the day.
They also were opposed to the unit
rule. They expected no clash In the con-
vention. they said although they pointed
TO the number of Bryan delegates as All
indication of the amount of trouble they
could make if SO inclined.
Six counties have passed resolutions in

Increased Receipts Expected.

Postmaster General Meyer believes thai
this reduction in the rate Of postage TO
the United Kingdom ultimately will re-
suit in an increase in receipts because
il has always been found that a reduc-
tion o1 the letter rate resulted finally in
increasing the revenue. He is also OF
the opinion that lower postage will lead
to freer commercial ntescourse Our
manufacturers, he says. are increa sing
their sales in England. and must rely
to great extent upon the mails for
orders and increase of trade. Further
he stated. this will be great boon to
our adopted and native English-speaking
citizens, particularly those of limited
means. as ii will enable them To keep
up correspondence with their relations
and friends in the old country at domestic
rates"

Free Melons at. Brigham

The management has decided that
melons and cantaloupes shall be given
freely to visitors on Peach Day at
Brigham City. This custom has pre-
vailed to some extent In the past,
but this year it will be enlarged upon.
One enthusiastic melon grower said
to the manager this week; lfyou
will give away melons and cantaloupes
! will give you good wagon load, "
If he represents the spirit of those
who have an abundance Of melons,
and no doubt he does, there will be
enough to feed the multitude and
leave about seventy times seven
basketfuls over. This free melons
and cantaloupes Is Zine business. A"

Apples Do Breathe

1t Is noted with surprise that Prof.
F. w. Morse, director OF the New Ham,.
shire agricultural experiment station,
has discovered that apples breathe
not only on the trees where they grow,
but afterward. o, course they do,
for life has not departed from them;
otherwise they would have lost their
quality Of food. Prof. Morse has
found nothing new when he says that
10 storage they give out carbonic acid
gas and moisture - animals do. and
that II 10 because Of thin. respiration
that they become softer and lose
weight. 1t appears that the colder
the place IN which the apples are
stored the slighter are the chemical
changes produced by their breathing.
The practical moral for the fruit
grower is, therefore, that they should
be put In "cold storage" as soon as
possible after tl.ev are picked. Ac-
cording to Prof. Morse, exposure to a
high temperature for even few days
will greatly lessen their keeping pow.

Mr.. Oscar Asche was once playing
on Scottish course, with a caddie of
the taciturn type in attendance. After
a series of strokes which were more
energetic than effective, the player got
in really fine cleik shot, and. turning
to the caddie, exclaimed: There! I'm

vouchsafed no response save non.

Presently another good shot was
safely accomplished, and again the
great actor cried exultantly: II said
before that I'm not the worst player

reply. ! want an answer" The caddie
maintained an obstinate silence for a
moment or two and then growled:
