Denver and a member of the notifi-

I also believe that Nebraska will be

find that wherever have been through
out the West vast number of Re-
publicans who will vote the Democratic
ticket, and have failed to find sim
gle man who was Democrat by con
yiction who will not vote for Mr.. Bry-
an.
The Democrats who were number
ed as goodDemocrats in 1896 and were
Democrats from conviction, will vote
for Mr.. Bryan In 1908, and those who
belonged to corporations or were sub
feet to corporate interests, and became
Republicans because they recognized
that they had TO look to corporate In
terests. will vote the Republican tick
ct because they have been Republicans
ever since 1896, and were at heart Re-
publicans before 1896.
81 find that many Roosevelt Repub-
licans who look upon President Roose-
welt as the greatest American Of the
last fifty years, also think that Mr..
Bryan originated ideas that Mr.. Roose
welt appropriated as thoroughly Amer
lean, and with the belief that, asRoose
welt Republicans, he will carry
out their views most thoroughly, are
ardent in support of Mr.. Bryan, and
propose to vote for him in the coming
election.
81 have sounded men who have never
voted anything but the Republican
ticket before who tell me they propose
TO vote for Mr.. Bryan, because they
believe he is honest and has most typ
cal ideas of honest government, and
Is thoroughly pure in his domestic
life They believe any party that has
been in power as long as the Repub-
lican party, and has raised a corps OF
grafters and perfected a system OF
graftism, should be defeated.
my belief, and it is not based on
my wish that Mr.. Bryan shall be elect
ed President, is that the American
people will not sanction the turning
over by one man to his own legatee
of the power of this great republic
and that the masses will, despite the
vast amount of money to be thrown
into this campaign by corporations

Barber's Remarkable Feat.

Two men were shaved at one time
in one barber chair last night by
BarberWright. When he called next
two men made for the chair and
crowded into it together.
without the least hesitation Wright
slapped the lather on both faces, and
while rubbing it in on one mans face
started to shave the other man with
his other hand.
Both men grasped the novelty Of
the situation, and allowed the work
to continue.
Shaving each man with alternate
strokes, he was soon .eombing one

the right hand was drying the Other

MAY BE LABOR WAR.
Provlncial Worknen's Association
 In Annual Convention.

Halifax, N. S., May 21.-The an- nual convention of the Provincial Workmen's association, the labor union which controls the mine work CTS of the Maritime provinces, which convened here to-day, was expect ed to develop the opening stages of a ldtor war which would eventually result in the United Mine Workers of America establishing branch Canadian organization in opposition to the Provincial Workmens asso- citation.
 The American organization has admitted to membership in its body several lodges of mine workers which seeded from the provincial association, and has sent organiz- CTS here to help them in their fight against the parent association.
 Delegates from the seeding lodges are on their way here to at tend the conference for the purpose of discussing the situation, but it is not expected that the lodges will again enter the fold of the organiza- tion which they have left, the mat ter having already been brought be- fore the courts in the form of peti- tions for writs asking for injunc- tions to restrain the grand lodge from taking any action in the mat ter of revoking the charters.

LEPRECHAUN APPEARS.
Little Man in Red Seen Again By
 Sunday School Children.

The Leprechaun is reported to have reappeared in northwest Meath. Since the sensation created a fort night ago by a report that the little man in red had been seen in that district, |, the superstitious country folks have been eagerly searching for him to bring them good luck. but he seemed to have vanished as mysteri- ously as he had come. and fortune seekers were disappointed.
 Yesterday, however, it was report ed from the neighborhood of Killucan that as three children were returning from Sunday school they were sud- denly confronted by what they de- scribed as a little man wearing shoes. gray stockings, corduroy knickers, a red coat and green cap.
 DOffing his headgear. he stepped toward one of them. a little girl. ex- tended to her a note with his right hand. She was frightened and turn cd to run away. but a little boy with her called that he would catch the Leprechaun and ran to grasp him.
 The Leprechaun. however. eluded him. and led him for a short distance. until, having succeeded in distract ing the youngsters attention, he dis appeared with a quaint laugh. nor oculd trace Of him afterward be found.-London Evenig Standard.

Antwerp, May 21.-The worst rail- road disaster ever recorded in BeIgi- um took place near Contich, six miles southeast of Antwerp to-day when be- cause of misplaced switch the Ant werp express running at fifty miles an hour crashed into a train loaded with pilgrims on a siding.
 Every car of the Pilgrim train ex- cepting the foremost one was tele- scoped. The cars were literally ground to pieces and practically all the pas sengers were killed or badly injured. About 90 dead people already have been recovered from the wreck and succor has been extended to more than 100 injured Surgeons, doctors and nurses arrived early from Ant werp at the scene of the wreck. Shrieklng and helpless wounded per- sons are still pinned under the debris and the scene is one of horror that beggars description.

DISTRIBUTION OF s5OO,OOo.
Authenticity of the Hadley Will Is
 Now In Question.

Boston, May 21.-Upon the au- thenticity of new will and two CO., dicils which have just been discover- ed and which provide for bequest Of $lO,OO0 to President Roosevelt, de- bends the distribution of the $500,- 900 estate left by Benjamin Hadley, an eccentric recluse who was found dead in his home in Someryille last December. If the new documents are genuine and that point is to be de- termined by the courts, all of the es- tate with the exception of the SlO,. 900 bequest to the president, will be distributed among the English rela- tives of the testator.
 The will, which is now awaiting probate, and which leaves the estate to the testators' nephews, was dated January IS, 1907, about a year be- fore MT Hadley's death. The instru- ment which has just been found is dated in 1889 and under ordinary conditions would be imperative but attached to it are two codicils, one dated August 13, 1907, and the other November 16, 1907. MT Hadley, who died alone in his home as the result of a fall down stairs, had many pe- culiarities. He had never ridden on a train and never attended church or theater.

A MODEL STATE PRISON.
New Haven View of Institution at
 Wethersfield.

The Register takes pleasure in presenting to it's readers to-day an inside view of a Connecticut insti tuition against which most persons are naturally and very properly preJudiced, but of which We as a state have nevertheless especial req son to be proud. It is obvious that we must have prisons, therefore a prison which goes as far as human ingenuity can suggest in the direc- tion of the cure of the crime-dis- eased is prison of which to be proud.
 Such a prison is that at Wethers- field under the supervision of Albert Garvin. It is beautiful in it's loca- tion, but that doesn't especially ben- eft those whose outlook is ham, pesed by it's stone walls. And it has real walls, and real guards. Let no one suppose that the majority of the prisoners remain there princi- pally because they love the teacher. There are no escapes from Wethers- field under Albert Garvin. He knows how to keep those committed to his charge.
 But it is as the intelligent physi- clan of the criminal that MT Garvin excels. He is humanitarian, a man who understands human nature in both its normal and its abnormal states, who sees the god that is in every man, and can bring 1t out. Mo- tice his classification of those under his charge, and how he has succeed ed by his excellent system in almost obliterating that incorrigib,e prisoner class. That tells the story. It takes a long time to teach the state that the purpose of law. with its provision of Imprisonment, is to cure men of crime. not to wreak vengeance on the man who does wrong. It is un- fortunately true that in the majority of cases the man has become hard ened in his crime by tho time he gets to Wethersfield, but the regime there is doing a great deal to soften him. He is treated as q man even if he is there for life, and though he is never allowed to forget that he is a prisoner, deprived of his lib- erty for the good of society, an in- telligent effort is made to make hin, see that this Is a social necessity, and to induce him to the philosophic point of view. This does all thta is possible to resign the life prisoner to his lot, and prepares the man who has to look forward to a life in the midst of society again to live as ho ought to live.
 In some ways it is an ideal institu- ton. That end of Connecticut's pen al service is being well taken care of. It remains for the state to adopt on the one hand right attitude toward the discharged prisoner. to which aim the Connecticut Prison association Is helping. and on the other to establish q proper system of reformatories to check the steps of the incipient crim- inal before ever he reaches the peni- ought to live.

WOMAN ARRESTED
Made a Big Demonstration in Front of Prime Minister
 Asquiih's House.

London, May 21.-A number of militant women suffragists, dissat- isfied with the reply of Prime Min ister Asquith to delegation of rad ical members of the house of con- mons yesterday on the question of claims of women for enfranchise- ment made a demonstration in front of the premier's residence in Down. ing street to-day and the police re- serves had to be called out in or der to clear the thoroughfare. They arrested six of the noisIest demOn- strators. The women appeared in Downing street by twos and threes and sent in to the premier a peli- tion asking that the franchise he granted at the present session of parliament. The premier sent word through a constable that he had no reply to make. The women there upon mounted the steps of the house and harangued crowd which quickly gathered.
 The six women taken into cus- tody all went to prison of periods of from one week to one month, rather than give recognizances for their good behavior.

Threadbare clothing, one arm in d sling-that was the first general im- precision of the man in The corner seat of a subway train. Good look ing, we'll dressed and very much in love-that was the general impress sion of the young couple who sat op- posite.
 The young man left the car at the Grand Central station. The girl look cd wistfully after him. but even though she missed him she was very happy. Hers was the happiness that manifested itself in little attention to others. She nodded at a baby fur ther down in the car. she smiled at a woman who stumbled when walking down the aisle.
 The man with the disabled arm tried to turn a page of his evening paper. It was hard work with only one hand. The leaves got crumpled and out of place. The girl saw his difficulty.
 Let me help yOu," she said.
 She took the paper. straightened out the pages. gave them a little pat. and handed them back. The man smiled. bu; he did no+ do much reading after that. Apparently he had lest interest in the days news.
 At 10th street the girl left the car. When she had gone the man tried to turn the pages of his pa- per again. That time another man volunteered assistance.
